Deliora
"Uh gah," a tall blond man with headphones on either ear that had lighting bolts there groaned trying hard not to puke on any of his companies.
A woman with light brown hair and gray eyes hidden by sharp glasses rubbed the poor man's back trying to comfort him. A man with a knight's helmet smirked and called, " So are you copying Natsu boss?"
"Bixlow," a man with green hair that kept one of his eyes covered scowled."Laxus if far more superior than that pink hair brute."
"Lighten up I was just making a joke, Freed," the man named Bixlow chuckled, "besides even I know he's better than that pink hair brat."
"You shouldn't make those kinds of jokes Bixlow," the woman scolded as she swept a strand of her light brown wavy hair over her shoulder.
"Ah come on I was just trying to lighten the mood for our extra member here," Bixlow stated jerking his thumb to the person sitting on the far end right next to where the four companies were.
The black hair teen glared at the older people who had forced him along with them. "Next time you should ask me and not threaten to turn me into a stone sculpture if you just wanted my help," the black hair teen stated.
"Don't ugh be like that gah Gray," the motion sick man said.
"Yes Gray," the green hair man stated, "you should be proud that Laxus even considered you as temporarily apart of our team. He was even generous enough to promise you a cut of the reward for working with us."
The raven hair teen said nothing as he looked back at the window. He knew the three Laxus supporters, the Thunder Legion Members, were probably glaring daggers at the him, but he could care less. They threaten to turn him into a statue if he didn't come, offered a fraction of the reward if he did, but no where did they mention what the hell the mission was.
An hour or so later they finally stopped a small village in the center of nowhere with a large forest behind it. A mountain stood right behind them and the Thunder Legion stood tall as any Fairy Tail wizard that was ready for battle would be. "Alright guys," Laxus stated to his team plus one, "lets hurry to the meeting spot before Lamia Scale. Gray we'll explain what the mission is there."
The very dark blue eye teen nodded silently, pausing Laxus looked the teen over before finally nodding sharply. "Alright lets go," Laxus ended.
The rest of the Thunder Legion nodded just as sharply following him through town. Gray came up the rear following silently puzzled by why Lamia Scale would even be here too. He grimace as he thought of one of Lamia Scale's wizards that he had learned magic with in the distant past, Lyon Bastion. Lyon and Gray never really got along great, heck anytime they saw each other both boys fought. Then again most of Gray's friends fought, he was no exception to that rule. Bixlow turned to Gray and stated, "Hey Gray do us all a favor and try not to lose your clothes, we don't want to draw a lot of attention."
"It's a habit," Gray shrugged, "I don't even know when I strip most of the time."
"Still we need to keep a low profile," Laxus agreed, "Freed can I trust you to make sure of that?"
"You need only to ask Laxus and I will do whatever you ask of me," Freed answered smiling happily.
Gray rolled his eyes and when his eyes looked at a cafe he saw a familiar person sitting there drinking something not even noticing the group. Who wouldn't notice white hair especially in a place as hot and humid as this? Gray didn't say anything as they continued forward to an unknown destination.
After a hour passed they arrived to a ruin site no one was around. A large pillar laid on its side surrounded by stone walls each somehow connected, but there was still large spaces enough for them to walk into it. "Now," Laxus stated, "Gray our mission is to work with Lamia Scale to make sure a monster doesn't get revived. We haven't got a lot of details but apparently the Lamia Scale people know more than we do."
"We were hoping to convince them to pool information with us," Evergreen stated.
"Which is where you come in Gray," Bixlow stated leaning on one of the teen's shoulders. "We heard that you know someone in Lamia Scales."
"We hoped that you could perhaps act as the middle-man for us," Freed stated, "it would go a lot smoother if we indeed have someone to keep the peace."
"Look if you guys haven't noticed I'm not exactly like Erza," Gray stated, "heck Natsu and me can even look at each other for two seconds without fighting. As for the Lamia Scale member that I know we just learned magic together, he hates as much as Natsu and I fight."
"We're desperate here," Evergreen stated, "as long as we can at least get a bit of information we don't care how we get it."
Before Gray could say anything else the group heard crunching of gravel telling them that someone was approaching. All of them turned around and Laxus' group saw the white hair male that Gray saw in the cafe along with an older woman with dark pink hair, a cold looking guy with blue hair and the largest eyebrows any of the Fairy Tail members had ever seen, a lanky man with his hands in his pocket wearing no shirt and well groomed hair with two dog ears sticking up, and lastly a small girl with dark pink hair and a nice smile. The white hair male, looked over the Fairies and narrowed his eyes when he saw the raven hair teen. "What are you doing here Gray," the white hair man demanded. "I didn't hear anything about you being here."
"I was forced here Lyon," Gray stated, "apparently I'm the negotiator."
"Go home Gray," Lyon stated glaring at the teen. "You're a hindrance to this request."
Laxus stepped forward and stated, "I'm the leader of the Fairy Tail side of this group. I can vouch for Gray's ability to handle his self."
Lyon glared at Laxus and demanded, "Do you truly have no idea what kind of demon they plan to revive? Or even how it will effect Gray at all?"
"Hold on Lyon," Gray stated, "are you trying to say they're trying to revive Deliora?"
The four older Lamia Scale members exchanged glances and that was all Gray needed. Gray grinned his teeth and shook in furry. The dark pink hair woman said, "We were trying not to involve you . . . out of love."
"Yes love," the youngest one echoed both clasped their hands together sweetly.
"Gray can handle whatever this thing is," Evergreen stated simply. "He was there when the dragons attacked that city after all."
"Yes and before Ultear rewound time he died," Lyon stated clenching his hands together tightly. "Which is exactly one of the reasons I want him out of here."
"I won't die again," Gray stated, "I swore to Ul and Ultear I would live my fullest. I am also a Fairy Tail wizard and we don't run from anything."
The other Fairy Tail wizards nodded in agreement. Lyon sighed but still argued, "This isn't about being apart of Fairy Tail or Lamia Scales I am telling you to leave for your own safety."
"If it's his safety you're worried about that don't worry about it," Laxus stated, "we of Fairy Tail always protect one another. If you mess with one of us you get the anger of our entire guild ten fold."
"Besides that Laxus here is a dragon slayer the same as Natsu," Gray stated, "and you remember the games."
"Lyon I don't think you will convince him any time soon," the guy with large eyebrows, Yuka, stated. "We might as well get used to it."
"Anyways weren't you just saying how you were hoping to see Gray again," the lanky man, Toby asked. "Well now you don't need to go to Fairy Tail."
"I said Juvia," Lyon stated, "the beautiful Juvia. Though I have no idea what she sees in you Gray."
"Leave me out of that," Gray sighed.
He knew Lyon liked Juvia, a blue hair water wizard that's entire body was made entirely of water. Not only that she also made it rain whenever she was upset. Gray couldn't handle it when his Lyon the icy man with ice powers acted just like the rain woman. Laxus cleared his throat and asked, "This Deliora person-."
Gray cut off the lighting dragon slayer and corrected, "Deliora was not human in any way it was a true and utter monster. It destroyed many homes and towns up in the northern countries."
"It killed our parents and our families," Toby said uncharacteristically in a sad voice. "We're grateful for it finally being destroyed though."
"Even if it wasn't by the hands we hoped for," Yuka stated turning his head to look at Gray pointedly.
Sherry sighed, "I heard only one person actually survived all that destruction, right Lyon?"
"Yes," Lyon nodded, "only one person did."
Evergreen pressed her lips thinking of how bad the dragon attack was and wondered how it compared to the monster's attack especially for young eyes. Gray's hand shook going unnoticed by his fellow Fairy Tail members. "So we just need to take down the group before it actually brings this monster to life," Bixlow shrugged. "Well since we got a dragon slayer here it shouldn't be too hard."
"Okay than lets make a plan," Laxus stated, "Freed any suggestions?"
"First off we need to find whoever it is that plans to raise such a monster," Freed stated. "Maybe we need bait to lure them in the open."
Gray, Lyon, Sherry, Toby, and Yuka looked at one another. They all knew that it would have to be one of them. "How about we split up," Evergreen suggested, "I doubt that they come out if we're all together like this."
"True," Lyon agreed, "however how do we decide our groups?"
"I'll be with Sherry," Cheria, the small girl with dark pink hair announced grabbing her cousin's arm.
Lyon smiled at the small girl and nodded to her. Evergreen frowned, true she really didn't want to be with that "love" girl that much, but she didn't want to be with one of those guys. "I'll pair up with Gray," Evergreen stated flipping her hair off her shoulders.
"Yuka was it," Freed asked, "shall we pair up as well?"
Yuka nodded in response, and Bixlow asked Toby, "Mind if we pair up dog boy?"
Toby cocked his head and Lyon said in his place, "It would be for the best."
Leaving Lyon and Laxus as a pair. "Alright then," Laxus stated, "we'll each head a different way and hope for the best. If you are attack send a signal into the sky to allow the others to know."
Everyone nodded and they slit into their assigned pairs.
