"Lackys, huddle up!"
Natsu and Lucy swiftly turned around on the spot to face the back of the cell where the voices came from -- Both of their eyes widening painfully at the shocking sight. Who would've guessed that they'd end up in a cell with their most annoying 'enemy'.
The Butt Jiggle Gang.
At this moment in time, the sight in front of them was strange. Three giant butts, wiggling around as the three-person-gang's heads were angled together in some kind of villainous meeting. Their loud whispers echoing around the cell as they talked.
Lucy puffed out a long breath, rolling her eyes in the slow process.
"I can't believe we got stuck with these." She sighed, turning back to face Natsu who was knowingly eyeing the bunch of Butts. He faced Lucy, looking at her before creeping a little closer to the three to listen to their loud whispering. Evidently, they were whispering about Natsu and Lucy and their plan to 'befriend' them, until they escape the cell, then to use them as bate to get on good terms with the guild.
Lucy rolled her eyes at the bunch. How stupid did they think Natsu and Lucy were? And why do they whisper so loud?
Natsu turned around to Lucy, his face still holding a confused look. "Where do I know these guys from?" He asked blatantly.
Lucy's eyes widened. "What?! You don't remember?!"
Natsu tried his hardest to rake his brain for the moment in which he had stumbled across the unusual black suited men, but couldn't seem to grasp a clear memory. He stood pondering, until he eventually turned to Lucy with a blank expression and a shrug upon his shoulders.
"You were totally stuck in a cell with them for like 2 hours!" Lucy shrieked, a little pushed back by his worrying memory. "Anyway," She continued. "These guys are weird. Remember they tried to kidnap Wendy and put her in one of their suits!"
With that Natsu snapped his fingers.
"Oh yeh!" He cheered, but then his face turned angry. "That was horrible, they called her their Goddess or something." He growled.
By now, the gang had turned around, staring in a line of three to face Natsu and Lucy.
"Are we really gonna do this boss?" Whispered one of the members to the left. He was pretty large and had a disturbing absence of hair.
"Oh course." The middle man, that they seemed to call boss - who also had very prominent eyebrows - snapped. "Only truly rotten scoundrels like us are willing to be this evil."
"Ready Lackeys?" The boss said, turning around to face their wall, evidently leaving their large back-ends to face poor Natsu and Lucy.
"GAS BUTT TRIPLE ECSTA-"
"Woah, woah, wait!" Yelled Lucy who was waving her hands around in front of her face rapidly. She definitely did not want to feel the wrath of their stinky butts ever again. She still has nightmares to this day. "I think you've misunderstood!"
The gang stopped, turning back around to face Natsu and Lucy with questioning faces.
"Go on." Said the boss.
"Uh... we're friends!" Lucy mentally scolded herself. She wasn't good at coming up with things on the spot. Not one bit. "Don't you remember us? We're friends with your Goddess... Wendy?"
The boss's facial expression flattened as his eyes started to sparkle.
"Our Goddess!" Shouted all three members, before gathering in a circle and fantasising as their butts wiggled with joy. Imaginary flowers began to sprout from the concrete floor around them as they reminisced and their auras turned brighter. Natsu and Lucy stood to the side, a little worried by the sudden change in character, but decided to use this time to their advantage.
"I'll get the boss, you get the other two." Natsu whispered to Lucy, gaining a small nod to show she understood. Lucy's fingers trailed toward her whip, carefully fiddling with the clasp to undo it. Natsu turned to Lucy, lifting his hand and counting to three on his fingers. As soon as his third finger rose, he engulfed his hand in flames and Lucy gained a tight grasp on her whip.
The boss of the gang snapped his head in the pairs direction, shattering the daze the three members were in and crumbling the sweet aura around them to the ground.
"Lackys--!"
The boss was abruptly stopped in his path of speech as Natsu threw his fist toward him. Simultaneously, Lucy swung her whip, rotating it around in the still air creating a lasso type shape, where she then flicked it forward to clutch both of the oblivious lackeys - completely unbeknown of he events that just occurred. Lucy elicited a short yelp from the bald Lackey as he fell to the floor, tangled in her whips grasp. Natsu left the boss in a daze with stars flying around his head as his dizzy body swayed. Eventually, the last member fell to the ground beside his lackeys, all of them looking pretty shocked at sudden action that happened within a blink of an eye.
"Okay. Now that you're down, let's talk." Lucy said sternly, placing her whip back in its holster and slotting her hand against her hip. "Why are you here? How did you get in this cell?"
The boss looked at Lucy and scowled.
"No evil doers would ever tell their plan to anyone. We're true scoundrels from the bowels of society - no one you two want to mess with."
Lucy rolled her eyes and looked at Natsu tiredly. She truly couldn't be bothered.
"Just tell us why you're here and we'll let you go. Together we can work a way to get out of this cell and leave." Lucy said, trying her best to urge the gang into giving her information.
"There's no way we can get out of this cell. The bars are wired with magic spells that not even us, the evilest of all evil could get through." The boss said, completely ignoring her question. "We're not even restrained anyway." He pointed out as he lifted his had and shook it in the air as a representation of his words.
Lucy sighed. "Dammit. How the hell are we gonna get out of this place?"
Before Lucy had any time to complain, Natsu had already started throwing fire toward the metal bars in some kind of attempt to break it. Sadly, all that managed to do was reflect the fire magic right back at the mages and the gang inside the cell.
"We're gonna have to work together." Concluded Lucy as she turned to face the gang and Natsu. "That's the only way we can get out."
Natsu clicked his fingers again, his face lighting up like a bulb. He pointed toward the gangs leader.
"Lets do that awesome fire explosion thing!" He beamed, getting excited as he remembered what him and the gang did last time they were together.
The boss threw Natsu a confused look, his huge eybrows furrowing at the top of his head. The rest of his clan had the same look. The what-on-earth-is-this-guy-talking-about look. As Natsu continued to ramble on about how awesome it was when they took out a load of guards with just their butts, their expressions only furthered.
Natsu let out an exasperated sigh.
"Fine, you guys just do what you do best and i'll show you!"
At the command, the gang readied. Anything to get them out of his cell they seemed willing to do. They faced the back wall of the cell, turning their rear ends toward the cells gate and angling directly at it.
"Ready Lackys?" Yelled the leader, turning his jead side to side to see his two team mates nodding eagerly. Lucy quickly fumbled around for a piece of material to cover her mouth with, she didn't want to go through the insane torture of breathing in their toxicity for a second time.
"THREE...TWO... ONE!" He continued.
"GAS BUTT TRIPLE ECSTACY!" The three yelled, bursting their toxic attack toward the cell door.
Natsu jumped forward, smiling excitedly as he took in a deep breath.
"FIRE DRAGON VERSION!" He yelled, shooting a Dragon Roar in the same direction, sending the Butt Jiggle Gang's attack toward the door with 10 times the force.
Lucy stood to the side, continuing to watch in horror as the attack crushed the cell door - much to her suprise. The door fell down with a crash, stopping the Lackys from fireing again.
"That was awesome!" Natsu cheered as he jumped up and down ontop of the broken down gate.
"It was totally gross if you ask me..." Lucy mumbled to herself as she took her sleeve from her mouth, her eyes stinging a little from the fumes. She stepped out of the cell gracefully, standing beside Natsu as the Lackys recovered and exited also.
"Well, we'll be seein' ya!" Natsu chirped, grabbing Lucy's hand as he started to drag her down the coridoor leading away from the prison room.
"Not so fast!" Yelled the leader, causing Natsu to stop in his tracks and Lucy to walk right into him.
"We're not done yet. True evil villains like us wouldn't just let you go when we could use you as bait so we can take all the booty." He continued, stepping slowly down the coridoor toward them - His lackys following.
"...take all the booty?" Lucy mumbled to herself in question. Did they mean the gem?
Her thought process took a turn as she felt a warmth around her waist. She was shocked when she looked down to see it was Natsu's arm and looked up to see him shooting daggers with his eyes toward the Gang.
"No one is using us as bait for anything, ya bastards."
The girl tried her hardest to focus on the problem at hand but couldn't get her mind off how perfect his arm felt wrapped around her. Her eyes widened as he pulled her closer to him. She had to use all her power to hold back against maybe sneaking an arm of her own around him. She shaked her head, commanding her mind to stop. Now was not the time. What was she thinking?
"Don't you understand? This isn't and option." The main Lacky continued as he stalked his way closer down the coridoor. "We're pure evil, concentrated evil, so evil you couldn't even comprehe-"
But the Lackys sad attempts at falsifying the extend of his gang evilness were cut short. Natsu had had enough, shooting a burning fiery roar their way. The Gang were hit unexpected, flying to the other end of the coridoor with a bang, unconcious.
"Freakin' try-hards." He spat.
Eventually Natsu entangled his arm from Lucy's waist, but quickly replaced the missing feeling from her as he gripped her hand, tugging her to the exit.
"I'm all fired up! Lets go Lucy!"
