The monster stood at a height of a 5 story building. He walked along, stepping on the houses of innocent people below. A ice spear was flung into its back and it screamed. Then, swords started cutting it and fire burning it.

Natsu used his fire dragon roar and sent the beast flying backwards into many houses. Buildings came crumbling down, but Natsu ignored it and kept attacking the monster. All of a sudden, he heard a scarlet haired girl cry out, "Natsu!"

Natsu stopped and looked at Erza. His eyes widened as he saw a blond girl, lying on the ground. On top of her was a piece of fallen roof. He had gone overboard once again and half the town was destroyed.

"Lucy!" Happy echoed what the pink haired teen was thinking.

Natsu ran towards her and Erza. "I'll pick up the roof, you get Lucy out from under there."

Natsu nodded as she lifted the rubble. Quickly, Natsu carefully pulled her out and held her in his arms. Her breathing was faint and she had many cuts and bruises. She was unconscious.

"Natsu, you and Happy get her to the guild. Gray and I can finish this," Erza commanded.

Natsu turned without another word and started running. Tears were forming in his eyes. 'This is all my fault!' Natsu thought. He ran faster and faster without stopping once. He was careful of holding Lucy still so he would not injure her further. "Hold on Lucy. You are going to be fine," Natsu whispered, more to himself than to her.

Blood began to slip out of a cut on her forehead. He had to get to Wendy, fast. Happy was leading the shortest way to the guild. The monster they were fighting was in the neighboring town to where the Fairy Tail guild stood.

Happy took the lead and burst through the guild hall doors. "Lucy needs help!"

Everyone at the guild froze and looked as Natsu ran inside with an injured Lucy. 'How could I have been so careless!?' Natsu thought again.

Master Makarov took one look at Lucy and then commanded, "Jet, go get Wendy and tell her we need her. Then, get Ms. Porlyusica."

Jet nodded and ran off. "Natsu, get Lucy in the infirmary. Mira, try to get the bleeding to stop."

Natsu ran her to the back of the guild hall with no objections. He laid her down and Lucy winced in pain, still unconscious. "I'm so sorry Luce!" He said, even though he knew she could not hear him.

Mira jogged into the room with wraps and medicine. She started putting disinfectant on Lucy's wounds and she groaned in pain. "Careful Mira! You're hurting her!" Natsu yelled at her.

Mira turned and gave him a glare that he had not seen since his childhood from when she was horribly mean. "Elfman, get Natsu out of here. I need to focus."

All of a sudden, Natsu was lifted up and taken out of the room. He had no idea that Elfman was even there. "Hey! Put me down! I need to stay by Lucy!"

"Be a man and stay quiet. Mira can't help Lucy if you hover over her."

But that did not stop him from trying. Natsu squirmed and threatened to use fire. Then, someone punched him in the gut. It was a one hit K.O. and Natsu was out.
