I'm Natsu Dragneel

The Possum Chaos: Chapter 9

Should I write a new horror NaLu story?

Natsu

Wendy was practicing a song inside her room and I'm here with Lucy in the kitchen.

"So, this script that Wendy gave us are the lyrics of the song. You're staring out the window while I'm out here in the streets. Huh...I think we both pull this off." Lucy says, looking at the lyrics.

"Yeah, hope you sing good." I tease, and Lucy gapes at me.

"Excuse you! I sing great! Not trying to be cocky but I have experience in singing." Lucy said, and I smirk, giggling under my breath.

"Pfff, okay. Well, tonight you're gonna prove it to me." I said, teasing her a bit more.

"Of course! You're gonna be in awe once I start singing. What about you? Are you any good at singing?"

"Pff, of course! I have a really nice voice when I'm singing."

Lucy giggles and I smile at her.

"You're so optimistic. So bubbly and happy about life. How do you handle all of the horrible things that's happening in life?"

"Well, all I do is think positive. If someone insults me saying that I'm ugly or fat, I'll just look at myself in the mirror and say "you're amazing, Lucy." It gets me through a lot."

"So basically, you encourage yourself."

"Yeah."

Maybe I should start doing that. I think that'll make me feel like I'm worth something.

"But, when someone else says it, it just lightens up your day. For instance, when someone tells me that I'm beautiful, I get all happy inside. Or when they tell you a compliment. It makes you look good and feel good."

"Well, I have never been called any of that."

Lucy smiles and chuckles.

"You are your own definition of handsome, Natsu. No one defines who you are."

"Thank you."

Suddenly, we heard Wendy running and screaming.

"Aah!!"

"Wendy!" I shouted, running off to the living room.

"Oh my God! Oh my God! Natsu, please kill it!" Wendy shouted, crying.

"Kill what!?"

Suddenly, Lucy screams out of terror and in disgust.

"Eugh!! Natsu, you have to get rid of it! It's running around the house!"

"Get rid of what!?"

"A rat!" The two girls shouted, totally in disgust.

"Wow...a rat? That's not even disgusting." I said, and Lucy and Wendy scream again.

"It's so fast! Natsu! Go! Get rid of it!!" Wendy shouted, horrified.

I hesitated a little bit but once I saw it go running down on a wardrobe, I screamed.

"Aah!"

"Oh no! Even Natsu's scared of the rat! Lucy, we're doomed!"

"N-No! That's not a rat! It's a...its a..."

"Just spill it already!" Lucy shouted.

"It's a possum!"

"A possum!?" The two shouted, completely more terrified.
