Fairy Tail~ What's behind?

Chapter 1- It's going to cost you

I Erza Scarlet am spending my last few moments falling towards the wild ocean and asking myself, "What if I didn't take one step further? Will I not be facing death right now?" I keep repeating those questions in my head while waiting to hear a Splash.

In just some few seconds I was already at the bottom of the ocean, sinking to its depths. My armour disappeared while I was starting to lose conscious and I felt scared to what would the others at Fairy Tail feel if I died. I'm sure Lucy would be continuously crying no matter how hard she tries not to. Gray would be silent at the corner and wouldn't even dare to say a word. Master would definitely try to stop the wild Natsu ruining my funeral because he just couldn't accept the fact I died.

Yes, many more would be sad if I died now. But what can I do? I couldn't move my arms or my legs because of fear. In this case I'll just die. I'm totally hopeless now and no one is even around to notice that I fell from a cliff. This is the end of my life.

"Hey wake up! Wake up! Wake up!" Someone kept yelling as I felt a warm touch on my bare shoulder. I tried to open my eyes but I only got a glimpse of something blue and fell back to darkness.

I awakened once again into an old Victorian room painted with the velvet colour and everything was antique and vintage even the curtains and the covers. I scratched my head and looked around the room to figure out where I was, but the only problem was I wasn't familiar with the place.

I peeked out the window and all I saw was a sea of trees. But with the gusts of the wind, I'm sure I was near the ocean. The doorknob twist and someone came in to the room. He was a strange man for he was wearing a white mask which covered his entire face. Only his blue hair was shown and the rest of his body but only his face was concealed.

"U-um would you want to cover yourself?" He sure did ask a weird question but what was weirder was me. I looked down and saw I was only wearing my underwear.

"Requip!" I quickly shouted and my normal clothes appeared to cover my body. After I was sure that I was wearing all my clothes I decided to ask some questions.

"Um do you know where I am?" I hesitated to talk since I found this man a little peculiar. I wasn't sure if he was trying to talk but I had the feeling that he was trying to force his voice out.

"We're still part of Fiore but this place doesn't have a proper address if that's what you're looking for." His voice sounded so pleasant to my ears and I hadn't notice that he was already done speaking.

"Um, okay." I kept staring at him trying to see what was under his mask but I guess he saw right through me. He turned away and once more spoke.

"You must be hungry after long hours of sleeping. Come down the stairs and got to the first room at the right." And just with that he left me alone in the room.

"I guess I am hungry." I muttered to myself as a loud growl came out of my stomach.

I went outside the room and I wondered if I should go left or right. I took a guess and picked right. As I passed by some large windows, I saw that the sun was almost swallowed by the ocean.

"I fell early in the morning. I guess I passed out for a really long time."

I continued walking and soon I finally found the stairs. It was not too steep or too wide. It was just the ordinary wooden stairs. But the whole house was sure from the olden times. It was all Victorian but it was sure kept clean and in good shape. Although it shows signs of its oldness but you would never call it a haunted house though the lights sure are dimmed.

I finally reached the room and saw platters of food. There were two big trays of bread, one giant meat loaf and there were different kinds of fruits everywhere.

"Hello? Are you there masked man?" I called out as I stood by the table.

Soon a figure appeared from the other room and it sure was the masked man. He was carrying a bottle of wine and a pitcher of water hand in hand.

"Sit down and eat." He said as he placed the wine and the water on the table.

I sat down and began taking some bread. I was about to take a bite when I was annoyed the sight of him just sitting there and staring at me.

"Um why don't you eat?" I asked.

It took a while before he answered. "I'm already done."

So I continued eating and with curiosity I asked again. "Were you the one that saved me?"

"Yeah, I saw you washed ashore and you were lying on the sand as if you're dead. But I gave you some oxygen and I woke you up but sadly you fell asleep again."

I choked on the wine as he said 'gave you some oxygen' and I felt that my face was starting to blush. After I ate, he took me to the library upstairs and there I saw plenty of books. I particularly scanned each one and noticed that it was all mostly history and story books. I decided to take this story book entitled The Great Mage.

As I began reading the first pages, I noticed the masked man sitting in the corner reading a history book. Tired of calling him masked man, I decided to ask him about his name.

"Hey what's your name?" my voice was shaking a bit.

"Nani?" he turned his head towards my direction.

"Um, well it's only appropriate to know each other's names since-" I was cut off from his voice.

"Jellal. It's Jellal Fernandes." He calmly said.

"Jellal? Well my name is Erza Scarlet."

"Erza? What a pretty name."

I was shocked when he said my name was pretty. But it really annoyed me that I couldn't see his face.

"Hey Jellal! Why don't you take off that mask?" I shouted pissed of hiding his face.

"What did you say?" his tone seemed that he didn't hear the loudness of my scream.

"I said take off your mask! What are you hiding inside of your own house? It's just the two of us." I waited for his next reply but instead he came closer to me and pressed me against the wall.

"Fine but it's going to cost you." He whispered to my ear just before lifting his mask.

The next thing I knew he threw his mask to the floor and then his face was so close to mine. The light coming from the room made me see what his face was like. I was wondering, what's behind? His face didn't have any ugly scars or marks, rather it was perfect. He had this weird tattoo on the right side of his face but he looked really handsome with it. His eyes were so deep. The blackness of it is making you enter a trance. His lips were not too thick and his nose was just perfect.

"J-Jellal." I muttered as I felt that my face was starting to become red.

He kissed me on the lips and I felt that my knees were becoming weak. Some books dropped on the floor as he continued to press my body against the wall. I don't know if it was just me or was his whole body already hot?

As he pulled his lips away, I felt a sudden touch near my shoulder and I suddenly fell. He caught me in his left arm and whispered something before I passed out.

"You're really cute Erza-chan."

I awoke once more from where I gained consciousness the first time. But this time, my arms and legs were tied to the bed separately. I couldn't close my legs and I my clothes were half open.

"Requip!" I shouted but I didn't change into my armour or did my sword appear.

"It's no use." I heard Jellal's voice coming from across the room. He stood there, leaning against the wall, enjoying the view he was seeing.

"What are you doing!" I shouted as I struggled to cut the rope.

"I told you it'll cost you to take off my mask. Once you take off my mask I become someone who hungers for lust. And no matter how much you struggle, you can't break free. It also doesn't allows you to use magic and I'm the only one who can set you free so be a good girl Erza and enjoy the treat you'll receive." He snickered evilly and it gave me the chills.

He climbed on the bed and sniffed my hair." What pretty scarlet hair you have." He muttered.

He then placed his other arm across my body and he started giving me a kiss. But his kiss involved his tongue and it danced with mine. Although I didn't like what he was doing, it gave me so much pleasure.

He pulled away and started licking my neck and uneventful things started to happen. But the movements stopped and I looked at the man at my side, sitting there with such a face.

"I won't go that far if you don't want it. But if one day you ask me to, then I'll give you what you'll ask." He scratched his head as he sat on the bed in crossed legs. His cheeks were becoming pink that made him look cute and seeing him know where his limits are definitely made my heart skipped a bit.

He released me from the ropes and I quickly changed to my pyjamas. He stood up and said goodnight. I don't know why but instead of getting mad at him, I said something else.

"Would you like to sleep beside me?" I said as I hugged my pillow and blushed as I saw his eyes.

His eyes widened but later he smile and answered. "Can I?"

"Of course." I lied down on the big but soft bed and he also lied down after he turned off the lights. With him beside me, the bed felt small and cosy. And I sure did get a good night sleep. But why am I feeling this way towards someone I just met?

End...

Hey although this was originally a Rated M, but since I didn't feel continuing with those stuff, then I changed it into a Rated T but it's kind of ecchi, well mostly it is but I hope you still enjoyed it!
