Chapter 42
They all dashed to Cana's room, "Cana! Luna!" Natsu yelled, waking them both up from their peaceful slumber.
"You better have a good reason for waking me up," Cana growled, gripping her pillow ready to throw it at the intruder.
"We need to leave now."
Cana was now fully awake, "did they find us?" Cana put her hands over Lunas ears, making sure she didn't have another panic attack.
"I don't know."
"What do you mean you don't know?!" Cana whispered.
"All I know is Lucy told us we need to go. So pack up." Natsu ran out the room, trying to help the others pack up.
Cana looked down at the now awake Luna. She rubbed her eyes, "what's going on Cana?" She said, still groggily from her lack of sleep.
"Nothing really. We just need to get back on the road, that's all." She stroked Lunas hair, almost making Luna fall back to sleep. Cana gently grabbed Lunas shoulders, "so I need you to pack up your things and come back here as quickly as possible."
Luna yawned, "ok Cana." She got off the bed, rubbing her eyes, heading off to the other room.
"Lucy, calm down!" Levy said, rubbing Lucys back to calm her.
"I did something bad!" She kept repeating, "I was just so mad and I just snapped-"
"What do you mean snapped?" Lucy couldn't even say a simple word because she was so terrified. Levy looked up at Gajeel, "carry her to the car I'll get everyone else ready."
Gajeel nodded and gently picked up, the now hyperventilating Lucy, to the car, "I'll meet you guys out there."
Levy nodded and headed into the room where Gray and Juvia were in. She slammed the door open to see them watching TV, "pack your things were leaving now," She said, urgently.
"Why right now?" Gray asked, struggling to lift his body to rest on the headboard, "where are we going?"
"We don't know, but it looks like we're in trouble."
Both Juvia and Gray nodded, "we'll be right down," Juvia said. Levy closed the door behind her leaving them alone again. Juvia rushed to both of their bags, putting all of their belongings in them, "can't we just for one second not get into any trouble?" She whispered, slamming her things into her bag.
Gray chuckled, "I think that's impossible considering the group we have with us."
Juvia sighed, "You're right."
"Let me help you." Gray started to get up from the bed but only led to him almost falling flat face on the rough carpet floor. He held his wound in pain.
"Dammit Gray." Juvia rushed to him helping him off the ground. She glanced down at his wound to see it was bleeding again, "you're bleeding again," She said, grabbing new bandages from her bag. She unwrapped the old ones and flinched as she saw the wound. Blood was oozing and a purple color surrounded the wound with an odd, white discharge also coming out, "It's infected." She ran to the bathroom and got a clean cloth to clean the wound.
He watched as Juvia was wiping the blood, "you always take care of me do you," he chuckled.
She sighed looking back at the wound, "not always."
"Hey..." Gray gently took his finger and put it under Juvias chin and lifted her head until she was looking him in the eyes, "don't blame yourself for this. This is not your fault, it's Veena's."
"I know, but I feel like I could have done much more." She went back to cleaning his wound, "I should have been there with you."
"What so you can get shot too? I don't know if I'll be able to live with myself knowing that I ever put you in danger."
She stayed silent still cleaning the blood. She finished cleaning it amd put new bandages over it, "I'll go see if I can find a wheelchair downstairs." She supported Gray back onto the bed and left the room leaving Gray to think in his own thoughts.
"Damn," he said, closing his eyes laying back onto his bed, "why do I feel like I said something wrong?"
Natsu was walking up and down the hallway, making sure no one was trying to break into their rooms it harm them. He was glancing through the hallways until he heard a door open. He turned his head and saw a drowsy Luna wondering through the hall, "What are you doing out here Luna? You're supposed to be getting ready."
"I am," She yawned, "I just need to get my stuff from the other room."
"Alright, but be quick."
"Okay." She rubbed her eyes and went into the next room.
Natsu stared at her, going into the next room, "why does she look familiar all of a sudden?" He asked himself. He just brushed it off and kept on patrolling the halls.
Gajeel growled, "where are these fools? It's been half an hour." He stared down at the calm but still shaken Lucy, "you doin' ok blondie?"
"I'm a little better. Just a little dizzy." She glanced down at her hands and saw the little sparks that covered her hands. She clenched her palms remembering the reasons why she hated her powers, remeber in what they have done to people, who they effected. She opened back up her hand to see the sparks gone.
It was only a matter of time before the real power awakens.
