~Natsu~

"He was the one who saved me, it was-" then suddenly, before Lucy could tell us who. Erza suddenly moved.

"Erza!" Shouted Jellal.

"J-Jellal?" Asked Erza as she was covered with bruises and burns. "Wh-what are you........ugh!...Wait! Where's Lucy!?" Asked Erza, panicked.

Then she turned to Future Lucy. She smiled a weak smile and tried to stand up, but failed.

"Erza! Don't move so much! Your wounds might open!" Said Jellal, concerned at Erza's serious condition. I looked seriously at Lucy. She turned my way and ignored me after.

"Lucy! I'm glad you're safe! I'm so-" Then she stopped as Future Lucy shows Erza her arm. Her eyes widen in shock and pity. "Lucy......" Her voice trembled in the most pitiful tone I've ever heard from her. Erza's cry was almost contagious. "What.....what happened?" She asked.

"I'm not you're Lucy. I'm from the Future, your Lucy, is suffering now.........."

"Now?? Wh-what happened?! T-tell me!!" Demanded Erza as she struggles to even speak due to her serious condition. "No! Wait! I need t-to.....save..ugh!.....her!!"

"Gray! We'll bring Erza to Wendy, for the mean time Go ahead to the inn! Help Wendy prepare the medicine for Erza! Now go!" Lucy instructed.

"But.." Protested Gray. "What about Lucy?"

"Look! I'm future Lucy, and I'm fine! I just lost an arm......NOW GO! ERZA'S MORE IMPORTANT!!" Shouted Lucy. Gray hesitated for a moment. "Alright, I'll go, but, remember this.............nobody's more important. You're as important as Erza." Then he ran quickly to where Lucy instructed him to go. Leaving Lucy, shocked at what she realized and heard.

She snapped out from her shock and turned to Jellal seriously."And Jellal! Take Erza and go to Wendy! She's is waiting in town. She might be in the inn by now. Gray already ran, and I know Gray can run fast, By now, he's already close to the inn. They're both preparing the medicine for Erza. Take Erza and go! quickly!"

Jellal nodded and carried Erza.

"Wait!! What happened to Lucy now?!?!" Shouted Erza as she was carried away from the masion.

"Lucy, huh? Never heard that name for a long time, The Lucy in your time, well, I am now suffering inside that Mansion and We can't do anything about it........there's nothing we can do...." Murmured Lucy softly under her breath. I, as a Dragon Slayer, could hear her every word.

I punched the ground, making a huge mark on it. I was covered with blazing flames of my anger hearing that word, 'nothing'.

"Nothing?? NOTHING??!?!? AS LONG AS I'M HERE!!!! THERE'S SOMETHING I COULD DO!!!!......." Then I turned my back from Lucy. "As long as it's for Lucy....." I stated softly and rammed the doors harshly, Ignoring every bit of sermons that Future Lucy gave.

"Natsu! Stop! Even if you opened those doors, I've forgotten everything..."She told me.

I stayed silent. I couldn't even speak because of the anger that flowed through my whole body and mind. As Lucy was talking, I rammed the doors repeatedly. Nothing can ever keep Nakama apart! Especially Me and Lucy!! I couldn't even take off that angered look on my face.

"After that incident, I managed to escape Flare, but, I forgot everything in the past. All I remembered was a pink haired guy that I LO-" Lucy explained, but I cut her off.

"I don't care! If She forgot everything, I'll just help her get it back! You know me better than anyone, right Lucy?"

"What makes Me so important?? What is you're purpose to get her back?? I already told you her fate! And it was a good life after this! I want my past self to experience a life without you, it was better that way! So? What made me so Important now?!"

"I love her! She's my life, that's how important she is to me! And The future Natsu might've felt the same way. Now go back to the future and go back to him. He needs you!" I told her, her eyes became teary and her bangs covered her eyes. I started to cry as well, but, I kept biting my tongue to stop myself from crying. I didn't want to show Lucy I saw, I tried to smile as I hide my tears. I smiled at her.

"I-I wanted........I wanted to.....but, but......I couldn't.....I couldn't go back!!" She replied with voice trembling, she stooped down, crying. I went closer to her and hugged her tightly.

"Yes you can. I'll still welcome you with open arms. Remember, I love you..." She pushed me away and looked at me with teary and pitiful eyes.

"No! I can't! I never Saw you again! For weeks I tried to look for you, everywhere-"

"Look for me? I thought you forgotten everything?"

"Remember the last words I wrote in that letter I left you? I loved you, remember? I remembered nothing, but I pink haired guy that......I loved! But I didn't have an idea where to find you. Luckily, A guy took care of me while I was alone, his name is Sting. He brought my memories back with unbelievable magic. I still loved you. So I asked him if I could contact you in anyway possible, and he had a friend that can use telepathy, But He couldn't even reach you! No one knew where you are! Others say that When I was gone, you left Magnolia, hoping to never find me!"

"That's not true! I'll never do that!!"

"Well, Natsu, you just have to accept it. That's the way it happened.......I'm sorry."

I stood up and went closer to the doors. Blazing with anger and passion.

"How do you open this?!"

"W-what?"

"You owned this place once! How do you open it Lucy, please, I need to save you." I said as I try so hard to hide my crying and trembling voice from her.

"I don't know, but I remember that Me and mother used to find some gap around the house so we could enter, apparently it works, but Father fixed every gap there was in the whole Mansion.

"Hah! If that's the case!" I said, smiling, as I walked to four steps to the side from the door. "Making a gap is nothing for a wizard coming from the most destructive guild in Fiore." I face Lucy. "Isn't that right? Lucy..." She smiled and nodded. Then I punched the wall repeatedly.

~Jellal~

I ran to where Wendy was waiting, which was near the inn. Gray went on ahead, to help Wendy prepare the medicine Lucy told Wendy to buy. We'll meet Each other in the inn. I knew what I was about to do, I knew my goal. I ran and ran, carrying Erza. I looked at her and she kept smiling at me.

"W-What.......are you........smiling about?" I asked, almost out of breath because running and carrying her.

She closed her eyes and still smiled. "Jellal." She stated my name softly. I was curious about the way she talks now. I'm worried, so I ran faster and faster, not caring about my health or being out of fatigue. I only care about Erza in this time. Only her.

"I want you to stop..." She told me with a smile and closed eyes.

"What are you talking about?"

"I want you to stop. I can handle this pain, but, I don't want to see you in pain."

"Well, neither do I!"

"Jellal, Look at you, you're tired, you're out of breath, and-"

"And you're injured!" I interrupted her.

"I'm okay.......just stop for a while, and rest. I'll bare this." She said with a weak smile as her blood flows from my arms and trickles down on the ground.

"Erza! I want you to stop talking like this! The sound of you, i-it's like...." Then my voice started to tremble as I ran faster. Tears started to flow from my eyes and drop to her arms. "It's like.....y-you're giving up! And that's not the Erza I........know! The one........I.......I-"

"Loved?" She continued softly.

She smiled. Then she put her hand on my face.

"Jellal, I'm not giving up, I'm just worried about you." Then she started to cry aswell, tears flowed out of her face. Apparently I noticed that her wounds didn't stop bleeding. I needed to find a way to stop all her wounds from bleeding, or else, Erza will die from blood lost.

I put Erza down beside a near by river and let her lean on a tree. Took of the cloth behind me, the cape, as other call it. I riped it in long strips.

"What.....are you...ugh!"

"Don't talk, I'll just cover you're wounds to stop the bleeding."

She smiled.

"Thank you for everything you're done."

I smiled and ripped the last strip of my cape. (Author: It's kinda weird to call it a cape, but, what can I do)

"Hold schill I'm goim' to wap this on you." I said as I bite some of the cloth strips.

She giggled.

"You sound really weird when you talk like that." She said. "Ugh! Ow!"

"Oh, sorry, am I hurting you?"

"No, no, it's alright. I'll try to bare it."

"Okay, I'll make this quick."

She nodded. Wow! I don't think five long strips of cloth could patch up all her wounds.

~Natsu~

I managed to break the wall of the mansion. The dust covered our view of the mansion. I blew the dust away and saw Lucy lying there all bruised up, bloody and looking like she was cold dead already. I ran to her, hoping for her to be okay.

"Lucy! Lucy!" I called out. Then Future Lucy approached me. "You told me she was going to be okay!?"

She looked down, bangs covered her eyes.

"I.....lied.." Then she suddenly disappeared into thin air. What the hell just happened?? Lucy!
