Last time Zanji sacrificed himself to save everyone from the giant scorpion, with Rei screaming in Pain of seeing Zanji and the Scorpion go up in a pillar of flames and explosions
Rei: *screaming out* ZANJI!!!!!!!! *with tears pouring out of her eyes as she can no longer feel Zanji*
Natsu: *holding Rei back with complete shock of what he just witnessed*
Versuvio: Natsu, Nexus get Rei onto the transport now.....once its cleared over there we will go and see if there are any survivors from that blast....*as he says concernedly and in sorrow*
Both Nexus and Natsu agree and take Rei into the transport and BiBi goes in and keeps her company while everyone goes to ground zero of where the explosion took place. All they see is Zanji's jacket caught on a rock and his sword stuck in the ground and nothing but sorrow and sadness comes over the entire group......
Versuvio: *grabs Zanji's jacket and barely takes his sword out of the ground and carries it back and quietly tells everyone* Mission......accomplished......lets head back
Everyone heads back to the 3 remaining transports and the door to where BiBi and Rei are opens and Rei's eyes get big in hope of Zanji walking in the transport but Nexus, Grimm, Max, Rag, Aki and Natsu come in with their heads lowered and sad...
Rei: Guys did you find him? Did you find anything *tears start to roll down her face and she shoots up and screams* ANSWER ME DAMN IT!!!!
BiBi: *grabs Rei's arms and holds her back* Rei, please calm down and wait to hear what they have to say
Rei: *struggles to get out of BiBi's hold* Please tell me what you saw.....*with tears running down her cheeks as she sees someone with a big sword in the shadow coming in and her eyes get large and she starts to smile and she sees Versuvio with Zanji's sword and jacket*
no.......god no *she falls to her knees crying her heart out*
Versuvio: *goes to Rei and he kneels putting Zanji's jacket over her back and resting his sword in her arms*
Rei....there was nothing we could do.....all we found were these and we know he would want you to have them..........
Rei also look at it like this....he died protecting the ones he loved and cared for and saved the woman he cared most for
Rei:*sitting there on her knees crying and quietly says*....thank you
the transports head back to the school with none happy about the mission accomplish other than Khaled, L, and Chii not caring either way on what happened...
3 Days later at the School they are holding a Graduation Ball that everyone is dressed up for and is attending to...
Rei: *standing outside at Zanji's grave where his sword is his tombstone and she has his Jacket on while outside* Thank you so much for saving me and natsu, Zanji......but why did you wait so long to do what you did before Natsu carried me away......
BiBi: *comes up with Grimm behind Rei* Rei come on inside its a bit cold out here, you know he wouldn't want you to be getting sick just days after saving you
Grimm: But Rei do you mind me asking every time you come out here you ask him why he did that....what exactly did he do?
BiBi: *elbows Grimm in the ribs* I said not to ask her that you dim wit
Grimm: Ouch! I was....
Rei: *chuckles a bit and smiles with a tear of joy* I don't mind you asking....he kissed me that's all but yes your right it is a bit cold out here
Rei, Grimm and BiBi head back into where the dance is being held.....
Natsu: *leaning against a pillar hanging out with Ice and Yamato* Man this sucks.....how can we enjoy this when he gave his life protecting us rom the Northern Nations Machine
Yamato: Hey come on man you know we should be enjoying our time not moaning about it so come on lets go have some fun!
Ice: Yeah Natsu come on there are plenty of girls here for you to dance with
Meh Yamato he is just goin to be a piss ant and kill the fun lets go
*both Yamato and Ice leave Natsu alone and go and enjoy the party*
Natsu: *looks up threw the sky light at the stars and thinks to himself: Their right I should be the one out there having a blast but.....I just dont know....as he lowers his head and opens his eyes and sees a woman he has never seen in the school before*
Who is that? *he heads over to her*
Excuse me I don't remember ever seeing youu here before, my name is Natsu
Lawliet: *not paying attention at first then sees Natsu* Oh I'm sorry, hello my name is Lawliet, yes this is my first time here and I must say this is a wonderful place
Natsu: Yeah it is...Been here for as long as I remember.....but hey this is a party we can talk about that stuff later tonight or tomorrow but as for now may I have this dance? *as he extends his hand out for Lawliet*
Lawliet: Yes we can talk about that stuff tomorrow, *takes his hand* and I would be honored to dance with you
Natsu and Lawliet begin to dance with the others as Aki and Rag are watching off at the Juice table
Aki: Awww look at them, all enjoying the night as if there is nothing else in the world....wish I was out there with them *as she sighs and sips from her juice*
Ragnaroc: *listening to what Aki was saying about dancing and he turns and faces the table and takes a huge gulp out of his juice and slams it on the table and confronts Aki*
Aki do you care to have this dance with me?
*as he holds his hand out*
Aki: *blushes at first and takes his hand*
Yes of course Raggy
Ragnaroc:*his eyes get big and he blushes a bit then pulls Aki close as they dance*
BiBi: See Rei everyone is having a nice time none is morning over his lose because they all know that he would want them to enjoy themselves
Rei: *smiles and laughes lightly* Yes he wouldn't want them to morn over his lose but dancing? BiBi have you ever once seen Zanji dance?
BiBi: *laughs* Good point but actually yes we have all witnessed him dance in his own way and that was threw combat and the way he wielded that sword
Grimm: *gets up and grabs BiBi's hands and pulls her with him to dance*
Exactly and now I am sorry Rei but can you please excuse us? I want to dance with BiBi
Rei: Yes you guys are right and no I don't mind at all *as she smiles at them* you two go enjoy each other
BiBi: *laughing as she gets pulled up* Alright Rei but you should try to have a good time as well
Oh and Grimm if you try to grab my ass in public like you did the last time I will do the same to that arm as I did your one robotic arm you had
Grimm:*his eyes get big and remembers that she ripped the arm off and melted it* Right right mental note "Do Not Grab Baby's Ass In Public"
alright done haha *he pulls her close as they too start dancing*
Rei:*laughes at what Grimm said* Well if everyone is going to have fun I might as well too but I will just take the pictures and record the dance
*she grabs the recorder and records everyone while they are dancing and she takes random pictures*
The night goes great and as the dance ends the boys escort their dance partners to their rooms
Natsu: *walking with Lawliet back to her dorm room* Wow I had no idea you were such a great dancer
Lawliet: *as they approach her door* Thank you *as she smiles* you weren't too bad yourself
Natsu: *they stop at Lawliet's door* Hey, Lawliet I was wondering if some time we could go out for dinner or something sometime....as in a date
Lawliet: *blushes a bit and smiles* yes I would like that thank you and maybe some time you can tell me about your past here and escort me around the school
Well anyways *she opens her door and turns around* It's really late now *she kisses his cheek softly* Good Night Natsu
Natsu: *blushes from the kiss* G-G-Good night Lawliet *as she shuts the door and he walks away back to his room*
Aki: *Her and Rag are at her door with her door open a bit* Raggy thank you for the dance...*she blushes a bit* and thank you for saving me the other day twice
Ragnaroc: It was no problem at all Aki, it was my honor and thank you for accepting to dance with me
Aki: It was the least I could do and I also want to thank you again...*she blushes a bit more* well I am getting a little tired now....*she hesitates at first but kisses Ragnaroc softly on the lips and she blushes big time and hurries into her room* good night
Ragnaroc: *standing their shocked and blushing and stutters* g-g-g-g-good night *and he leans against the wall*
BiBi and Grimm go to BiBi's room and they are standing their and instead of saying good night they look around and see none around them and they go into her room and.....(you guys imagine the rest)
Rei: *sitting in her chair in her room wearing her night dress looking out the window* I hope you are out there somewhere.....*she gets up and goes to lay in bed*
Suddenly as everyone is laying in bed and about to fall asleep a massive explosion takes place in the front gates with the alarms blaring and everyone scattering to their feet
Versuvio: *grabs the microphone to make an announcement* EVERYONE TO ARMS WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!
