Gajeel P.o.v:

I leaned against my locker and groaned.

"I really can't be bothered for extra maths on a Friday." I said to Sting who was putting his books in his locker.

"Yeah but just think, Levy's your tutor. So it can't be that bad." He chuckled slightly and leant on the lockers beside me.

"I guess." I said with a small smile.

"Hey what's going on? A fight?" Sting asked whilst nodding to a growing crowd of people in front of us.

"I'm not the sick one here. You are, and I'm not like you."

"You keep telling yourself that fuckface- I mean Laxus."

"That sounds like Natalie." I said, moving slightly closer to the crowd so that I could see what was happening. Sting not far behind.

"Hey, you wanna call me that again Natalie?"

"Woah, don't get too close. You'll catch my disease and start thinking you're a man." My little sister said to the school bully with a sarcastic smirk.

"What are you stupid? I am a man."

"Are you sure? I'm pretty sure I'm more of a man than you'll ever be. But you're not like me right?" She said, making me and Sting exchange a proud smile. You tell him sis.

I snickered as some around them hid their laughs and others went 'Ooooh' and 'Don't take that shit Laxus.'

"Why don't we go and have a chat somewhere more... private?" Laxus said.

"Are you sure? I mean, you wouldn't want rumours going around that you're friends with me would you?" She said looking concerned.

Natalie suddenly made eye contact with us, but looked away quickly.

"Awh, come on Natalie. Are you less confident with everyone around to watch?" Laxus said, moving closer with a menacing look. I frowned and went to pound that idiot for trying to threaten my sister, but Sting pulled me back.

"Not at all. I just don't want you to cry in front of your 'fans'. I'm going easy on you here." She shot back without hesitation.

Laxus laughed loudly and then smiled at her.

"Oh don't worry. You won't make me cry. You're just a girl after all and besides-"

He took another step closer while he talked so that he was right next to her and placed a hand on her shoulder.

I clenched my fist and looked at Sting in warning, he nodded and turned back to see Laxus smiling.

"-What can you do without magic freak?" He smirked.

That's it. I stepped forward, ready to smash this guys face in but Sting stepped with me, holding onto me by the back of my jumper.

"Um... Laxus... It's probably best if you don't touch her..." Sting said softly.

"Like I said, what's she going to do to me?" He said, looking at us.

"She uh... Doesn't like being touched... By anyone. She goes batshit crazy, and let me tell you, its not a pretty sight." Sting's eyes widened slightly and I followed his gaze to see Natalie's expression. She looked... Scary. That bastard.

"Well... It's not like she's pretty anyway." He chuckled and he grabbed Natalies wrist. Me and Sting moved away as quick as we could knowing that she was going to flip out.

I waited for her to scream at Laxus like she normally would but instead I felt my eyes widen. I rubbed at them to make sure I wasn't hallucinating and when I opened them again to see the same scene as a few seconds ago I pulled Sting closer.

"You're seeing this too right!?" I whisper shouted and I saw him nod from my peripheral vision.

In the middle of the crowd was Natalie and Laxus... Just as they were before he grabbed her... Except now, Natalie was on fire... And yes, I mean literal fire.

Her eyes were hidden behind her hair but she was smirking evily.

"Fire dragon roar." I heard her say, but it was quiet. Is she really using dragon slayer magic?

Laxus looked scared for a second before flames engulfed him and he screamed loudly, making Sting, Natalie and myself cover our ears.

Then it stopped. I looked at Natalie who looked surprised, it was as if Laxus' scream had woken her up. She made eye contact with me and Sting.

"I'm sorry." She mouthed to us, and then she ran.

•••••
So this chapter was pretty much the same as the last but with a bit more detail... I just really wanted to show you guys Gajeel's protective big brother side as some of you went crazy at him for what he said to Natsu. He's sweet really, I promise.
Tell me what you thought about the cutie version of Gajeel and about Natsu's outburst.
Love you.
