Chapter 30

"Shrimp!" It was like everything was in slow motion. The bullets slowly making their way out of the gun, Levys tears slowly flowing down her face, as she tried to cover her face with her arms. He tried to use his abilities to stop the bullets, but it didn't work.

The bullets weren't metal.

It was too late to run and grab her. He couldn't do anything. No one was close enough to grab her.

Or so he thought.

"Levy!" A hand grabbed Levys shirt, pulling her out of the bullets path.

Gajeel eyes widened as everything went back to normal speed. He gazed the room looking for her until he spotted her in Lunas arms.

"Ahh!" The woman reloaded her gun and aimed it again at the both of them.

He growled under his breath. His eyes were glowing red and his aura making everyone in the room shiver at his wrath.

She put her finger on the trigger, smirking, "I got you now." Both Levy and Luna, terrified hugged each other waiting for their fate. She was about to fire until he crushed the barrels of the gun with his bare hands, "What the hell!?" She glanced up at the man, speechless at his appearance. He snatched the gun away from her, and swung it at her knocking her out cold.

Both girls glanced up at the steaming Gajeel. Levy was the first to stand. She ran over to Gajeel, pulling him into a bone crushing hug, "thank you!" She pulled away from his now tear stained shirt.

He growled and pushed her away, "What were you thinking!? You almost got Luna and yourself killed. You're lucky she grabbed you when she did!"

She looked down, "I know and I'm sorry!"

"Sorry doesn't cut it!" He calmed down a little and walked toward the exit, "Stop being so careless."

"It was just an accident Gajeel-" Erza started.

"No, he's right." She picked up the bag and dragged her feet to the car.

Cana ran over to Luna, "Dammit Luna! Why did you do that?!"

"What do you mean why did I do that? She was going to die." She tried picking her self up, but immediately fell back on the floor, "my leg." They both looked down to see a couple of the pellets from the shell inside her leg.

"Now look what you've done? You got yourself hurt being reckless."

"I don't care. There was no way I was just going to sit there and watch her get killed in the worst possible way. Not again." She picked herself back up and started limping toward the exit.

Cana was baffled by her, but amused. She didn't know what she was going to do with her. She came to her feet and rushed to Luna, sweeping her off her feet carrying her to the car.

Luna smiled, "it was about time. It really hurts walking when you've been shot in the leg."

"Yeah, yeah kid."

It was pitch black outside and they were almost at there destination. Everyone was in the second row of seats, sleep, except Gajeel. He was too busy thinking maybe he was too harsh on her, but then he remembered how careless she was. She should have looked around before carelessly trying to grab a bag of books. She could have been killed.

Who knows what Gajeel would've done if she actually did.

"We're here everyone!" Cana yelled, waking everyone up.

"Five for minutes please." Jellal said, leaning his head on Natsu's.

"How about no." She pinched his nose, making him unable to breath.

"Ok! Ok! Damn woman!" He said, grabbing his now red nose.

"I'll see if we can go get a room." She walked inside the building and saw a boy around their age at the front desk. He heard the bell ring from the door and turned.

He immediately fell in love.

"H-Hello, how can I help you?" He said, hearts in his eyes.

"How many rooms do you have available?" She asked.

"We only have our deluxe suits available."

"How much are those?"

"They're about a hundred per night."

"What?" She sighed, "are you sure you don't have anything else?"

"Nope sorry."

She sighed, "Thanks anyway." She began walking away, but the boy couldn't let that happen.

"I can make you a deal." He smirked.

She turned, raising her brow, "What do you have in mind?"

She walked out the building, buttoning up her shirt. She knocked on the window alerting everyone, "I got the rooms let's go."

Everyone gathered their belongings and headed inside.

Lucy was carrying Natsu on her back and Juvia doing the same for Gray, making sure she is extra careful not to hurt him. Levy was walking with Luna holding her hand while Jellal smiled at how cute they were. Erza carried the bags noticing Jellal staring at Luna and Levy. She smiled remembering Jellal's soft side. Gajeel was in the back, trailing behind the others.

They all walked in, headed toward the elevator. Cana couldn't help but look at the boy behind the counter. He winked at her, "see you around." She wanted to smack that smirk right off his face, but that would mean they would lose the rooms. She remained calm. Lucy noticed the both of them, raising her suspicion.

They all squeezed inside the elevator, "What floor?" Jellal said.

"The fifth." Cana said, staring down at the key card he gave her.

He pressed the button and proceeded to the top floor. They hopped off the elvator following behind Cana, excited, they were out of the car, "ok I got two rooms, which means we need to split into two groups and share."

Everyone pouted.

"You guys better decide or I will." Cana threatened. Everyone, afraid of her wrath huddles into two groups, "great." She gave each of them a key, "come back to my room once you guys get settled."

They nodded and opened the door to their rooms.

"Whoa!" Luna said, dropping her bag, "this room is huge!" She explored the room.

"How did you get a room this big?" Levy asked.

"Yeah Cana." Lucy dropped Natsu on the couch, crossing her arms, "how did you?"

"Me and the guy downstairs made a deal." She said, walking to the bedroom.

She opened the door, but Lucy slammed it closed, "What kind of deal?"

"It's none of your business, now move."

"It is my business." Lucy said, glaring at her.

"Get out of my way. I'm not in the mood." Cana said, clenching her fist.

"Make me." Lucy threatened.

Cana was tempted to throw a punch at her, "Tch." She walked in the kitchen area, "I'll say this once and once only, don't worry about how I do things or my business. You should be lucky I even got us a place to sleep in."

"I would have been fine in the car. I slept in worse conditions than that." She banged her fist on the table, startling Luna and Levy, "I want to know what you did!"

"Why are you so worried!?" She screamed

"Because you're my friend!" She yelled, "What kind of friend am I if I let shit like that go! I saw the way he looked at you, I saw how you looked terrified just looking at him! Now just tell me what he did to you."

"I can't take it back now. It's done. It was my choice, now I have to deal with it."
