Chapter 10
Erza POV
The mark on his face was familiar but I couldn't put my finger on it, "It's... familiar, but I cannot remember where it was from." I could see his face visibly sadden. I felt him raise me higher, so I was at perfect eye level with him. His doe brown eyes echoed sadness. He was huge compared to me. He had to be at least 30 feet tall.
He put me down gently, "Jellal, wait, I..."
"Mmm?" He says, looking back.
"I-uh.....wanna talk?" I ask awkwardly. He smiles a dragonish smile.
"Sure."
Lucy POV
It's been 5 days since Erza went off to fight the dragon king. I have been elected byte king's council as the replacement heir if Erza is found dead. All I can do is hope that she is not. I will find her, I will defeat the dragon king, and if necessary, exact revenge. The dragon king has a whole legion of dragons at his command. We have severely underestimated the dragons and are paying the price, fortunately, there have been less attacks, now they're mostly smaller, obviously lower ranking dragons attacking, and a lot less frequently. The dragon king has yet to be sighted since Erza left to fight him, nor any of his court, the more devastating Fire and Ice dragons have not been seen either. Pity. I would love to relish in the glory of slaying the fire dragon, water-works wants to take on the Ice dragon. I'll let her have it.
I was packing my stuff, loading it onto my horse, Aqua. She was the most equipped for longer distances, and extreme weather conditions. Squirtle besides me was mounting her horse, Max, Gajeel with Copper, Mira took Cloud, Elfman took Sky, Lissana took her new horse, Mist, and Romeo took his, Smog. Romeo has just become a Squire and is coming with us for experience. Storm is being left behind. We will probably leave our horses at one of the royal houses on our way. Our Journey will take approximately 8 days. I can only hope that Erza is okay. We as ride off, Rainy rode way to close! She almost knocked me off Aqua!
"Hey Tidal Wave! Watch it!" I growled.
"No, you watch it, keyhole!"
"No, yo-"
"Shut up you two!" Mira sighed. We grumbled and reluctantly shut up.
Jellal POV
I laugh as a flustered Erza punches me, mind you it hurt but it was still funny watching her face turn as red as her hair.
"Hey!" She growled. I whipped a tear away from my eyes. She sat in what seemed to be a leather tunic.
"Erza, what are those clothes that you're wearing?" I question. It looks awfully similar to what men who traveled through my lands wore, exactly if my memory serves me correctly.
A slight hint of pink dusted across her face, "It was my father's, I dont like the women's cut, its very unflattering in my opinion." A slight glow shone around her, when it cleared, she wore something similar, except it looked very tight around her, uhh, chest and the leggings were extremely tight, it fit her figure way to well. Her face was bright red. "See what I mean? Too tight." I tripped over my tongue. I nodded, careful to make she didn't see my lingering eyes.
She changed back quickly, avoiding eye contact.
"Jellal! Get your ass over here!" Levy's voice screamed.
I sighed, "Ok, coming!" I returned, lumbering over.
"What is it?" I asked annoyed, when I reached Levy."We did it! We've completely deciphered the spell!" Levy exclaimed. "There's a slight problem though..." "And that is...." I asked a little nerved."Come on, I'll show you." Levy said deadly serious, which is never a good thing. But show me, what does she mean, it's a spell? Or does she mean something else, or both? So, concerned and confused, I followed Levy to find out what she meant.
