Day 4- Protect
brownie-pie:
Protect. That was it. There Natsu was, standing his ground, wobbling slightly, in front of someone. Blonde and a Celestial Spirit Mage. Lucy Heartfilia. “Your friend is down for the count" the man he was fighting teased.
Natsu glared angrily at the man. Lucy had tried and tried so very hard, just to prove that she wasn’t weak, that she was strong and could help out just as much as the others.
But she passed out from exhaustion. And when she wakes up she’s going to be upset that she couldn’t help, which will lead to her crying. And for one, Natsu did not want to see Lucy cry.
"I’ll take you down! For Lucy!" he exclaimed in a loud roar. So, Natsu fought. He fought for himself and for Lucy. Because he had sworn to protect her.
After a while, he had finally defeated his enemy, and Lucy had still not woken up. Natsu walked over to her and Happy. “Has she woken up yet, Happy?" he asked.
Happy shook his head, looking at Lucy, his eyes filled with worry. Natsu gently picked her up. “Let’s get back to the others" he said, walking off, Happy following.
But luck wasn’t on his side today….. At all. He was tripping over things, walking into things and getting stuck sometimes and need Happy to carry him which resulted in him almost dropping Lucy.
He was set back on the ground. “That was a close one" Natsu sighed with relief. “You almost dropped her again" Happy sighed with him. “Don’t worry, I won’t" Natsu replied grinning.
"Sometimes I wonder about that" Happy muttered. Natsu took a step and tripped over a tree root. He quickly hugged Lucy tight as he fell….. Down and off a cliff.
"Natsu!!" Happy yelled. “I won’t let you get hurt!" Natsu declared, his grip on Lucy tightening as he tumbled down the cliff. He had been preventing any more injuries on Lucy, taking all of it.
Happy quickly flew down after Natsu and Lucy at full speed. Just as he was about to hit the ground (and possibly break a few bones) Happy caught him.
"Thanks Happy" Natsu thanked his partner. Happy placed them on the ground and Natsu slowly got down on his knees. He gently laid Lucy down on the ground.
"Natsu!" He looked up at Erza and Gray. “Are you alright?" she asked. He nodded. “What about Lucy?" Gray questioned. He looked down at Lucy.
"She fought hard, trying to act strong but she passed out after defeating her opponent" Happy explained. “I don’t see what her problem is, she’s strong enough."
"She is a Fairy Tail mage after all" he shrugged. “Thanks Natsu…" Lucy whispered, her hazel eyes flickering open. He grinned down at her. “You were amazing back there!"
She smiled lightly. “Yeah but you were mostly protecting me…" she replied. “We all need someone to protect us, and you have me!" he said, placing a hand on hers.
She blushed lightly. “By the way Natsu….. You ran away from the group, taking Lucy and Happy with you…" Erza cracked her knuckles. His eyes widened.
He quickly stood up, pulling Lucy in front of him, Lucy then pulling Happy in front of her. “And you have me…" Lucy laughed nervously to herself as Natsu hid behind her.
