Gajeel P.O.V

Why was she here? I told her to leave damn it! I cursed as I tried to pull myself to my feet but my legs didn't work anymore. I drug my beaten form across the ruble, making my way to the fallen bluenette. " Shrimp..." I coughed, my throat sore from all of my roars and blood filled my lungs.  Levy groaned slightly as she turned her head to face me but otherwise didn't move. " Gajeel..." she said weakly. She had lost her headband and her hair was in her face, some of the blue locks died purple.

" Damn it Shrimp... I told you... To go where it was safe..." I said. Speaking and breathing were becoming difficult. I pulled myself into a sitting position beside her, trying not to grunt in pain as I held my hand over the hole in my chest. " I couldn't let you... Fight alone..." she gasped out, pulling herself up beside me. I looked over to her and my heart clenched in pain. Her skin was pale and dyed with blood, a gash in her chest was causing her orange dress to turn red. I knew we weren't going to make it, that's why I sent her away. I wanted to give her a chance to live. I swore when I joined the guild I would protect her. But now, with these damn dragons, Levy...

I ignored the pain in my chest and arms as I carefully pulled Levy close, sliding her on to my lap. " Gajeel?..." she pulled her head away to look at me but I held her head to my chest. " Just shut it and listen..." I grumbled, coughing slightly. " I wanted to tell you when the games were over... I thought there was time..." I looked up to the smoke filled sky, the distant roar of dragons filled the air. Just over the horizon the sun was beginning to rise. " Levy... Levy I love you... I'm not sure when... But I did..." I tried to blink away the tears I could feel welling in my eyes, I wouldn't let them fall in front of her.

She tried to pull her head away again and this time I let her but I didn't look at her. " Gajeel... Please... Look at me." I took a deep painful breath and looked down at her, tears were falling out of her hazel eyes. " Gajeel... I love you too..." she smiled sadly as more tears fell from her eyes. "I just wish... I wish we had more time..." a small sob broke from her lips. She knew as well as I did that this was our last time together. The only way we could have made it is if Wendy was here when it happened. And she wasnt.

I leaned down and pressed my lips to her trembling ones as I held her as close as possible. When we pulled away she laid her head on my chest again, holding a shakey hand over the hole in my chest in a weak attempt to stop the bleeding. I looked to the sky again as dark clouds suddenly covered the sky, and a familiar rain began to fall. It washed over us, and I was afraid at what Juvia had faced to bring the rain back. My world was beginning to darken,  but I clung on to that last ray of life for as long as I could. But as the tiny figure in my arms stilled, and her pale hand fell from my chest, I finally let my tears fall, and welcomed the darkness.

Juvia P.O.V

This couldn't be happening, there was no way this was happening. The baby dragons had burst through the building and Grey had been our shield. Lyon and Meredy had run to try and find Cheria or Wendy, but Grey's breathing was getting worse and I couldn't seem to stop the bleeding. "Grey-sama.... Please just... Just hang on..." I sobbed as I held my hand against his cold face while trying to stop the bleeding.

He coughed, blood trickling out of his mouth. I wiped the blood away with shakey fingers as he slowly opened his gray eyes. " Juvia..." I shook my head. " Save your strength..." I whispered. He weakly lifted his hand and placed it against the one I had on his face. " Juvia I... I wanted to tell you..." I shook my head again, more tears falling. " No! You can tell me later! W-Wendy will get here and make you better..." I gasped out.

His weak smile pulled on my heart and I had to bite my lip to stop the sob. " Juvia... I'm not going to make it... So... Let me speak..." He coughed again. I slowly nodded, wiping away tears with my free hand. "All those times... you said you loved me... I never spoke my feelings, I just kept brushing you away... Because... I was afraid. Afraid that if I loved again, you would leave me like Ur... Juvia... I love you too... And I'm so so sorry... That I'm leaving you like this..." He tried to hold off another bloody cough as he pulled my hand to his lips and kissed it ever so gently.

My heart felt like it would break as I stared at his pale face and again more tears fell from my eyes. " Grey... Grey please don't leave me..." I sobbed as I carefully laid my head on his chest. " I love you Grey..." I sobbed. " I love you..." his voice trailed off as his chest stilled and my heart shattered. I shook as I clung to his still body, I could feel the rain coming,  and as it fell once again I screamed to the sky. " GREY!!!"

Natsu P.O.V

I limped through the ruins of buildings, trying to get to the Eclipse Gate. Rogue and the dragons had left after Lucy got the gate closed, but I hadn't seen her. I slowly made my way up the steps to the gate, nearly gagging on the heavy smell of blood but I tried to shake it off. As I reached the top of the steps, my heart dropped into the pit of my stomach at what I saw. Blood covered the ground, but only one body was left lying on her side, her golden hair stained red.

" Lucy!" I shouted, going as fast as my injuries let me. I dropped to my knees beside her and carefully pulled her into my arms. She whimpered in pain and my stomach twisted at the four large gashes in her chest. "Wendy!" I screamed, hoping to find the small girl. "Wendy please!" I sobbed as my grip on Lucy began to shake. "Natsu..." I looked down at Lucy as her weak voice called to me.

"I'm here Luce. Just hang on, we'll find Wendy, and get you fixed." I quickly wiped my eyes and staggered to my feet, keeping my grip firm. "Natsu... Just stop..." she coughed, blood coming from her mouth. "No Luce! I ain't letting you go like this!" I snapped, feeling tears well in my eyes again. "Please..." her weak plea broke me and I finally stopped walking. I leaned against a building and slowly slid down it, holding her close to me.

We were quiet for a long time before she spoke."Natsu... Do you remember when we first met?" She asked. "Yeah. The fake Salamander." I said quietly. Of course I remember that day, the day I met Lucy was the best day of my life since Igneel left. "Remember... How I was under the charm spell?..." I nodded. "I read up on it..." I chuckled a little, though tears still threatened to leak from my eyes. "Of course you did." She hummed slightly. "It said... The only way to break the spell... Other than dispelling it, was the sight of one's soul mate... I thought it was silly, since I just met you..." despite the situation I felt my face heat up. I remember Mira mentioning it to me.

" But then I joined Fairy Tail... And I spent time with you... You always took me on adventures... You hogged my bed... You even uprooted one of the Sakura trees for me..." she smiled slightly as she looked up at me. "I love you Natsu..." she was crying now, her pale face twisted in sorrow and pain. My own tears were finally falling too as I hugged her to my chest. " I love you too Luce... So please... Please don't leave me..." I buried my face in her hair and kissed her head. "Please Lucy... Please..." I continued to beg her to stay with me as it began to rain. I strained my hearing, listening to her weak heart,  praying that it wouldn't stop. But my heart broken into millions of pieces when the only sound I heard was the rain and there was no longer any heat coming from her pale skin. I screamed her name as I sobbed into her hair, clinging her limp form to me, wishing I could bring the love of my life back to me.
