Previously on Chapter 1:

This was going to be one hell of a fight but, I'm not sure if we can beat this guy alone. We need Gajeel and Levy. Where the hell are they!?

Gajeel's POV

When Levy and I were patrolling the South side of the building we heard the alarm go off.

"Let's go" I said facing Levy

She just nodded and we entered the museum through the back door. We searched every room until we found a room with shattered glass on the floor. I saw that the thieves had already taken another green Emerald, but before I could even take one more step I heard footsteps coming from behind us. I bent down to whisper into Levy's ear saying

"Someone's coming this way, be prepared"

"Ok"

As we got into our fighting stances the foot steps grew louder and louder with every step the person took, and then suddenly it stopped. We turned around to come face to face with a teen the same age as us that had a smile glued to his face, had on a black shirt with black skinny jeans on, his color hair is black and covered his left eye, and his eyes were the color of blood.

"Who are you?" Levy said

"Me well I'll be more then glad to tell you guys. Well my name is Let and my magic is… well, how about you guys figure that out for yourselves" he said with a smirk

"Gehee, well then let's get started" I said while cracking my knuckles. "I needed a new punching bag, but I guess you'll do" I started to suck up the air around me and said with one hand against my mouth "Iron Dragon… ROAR!"

"Solid Script… FIRE!" I heard Levy say.

As her fire and my roar traveled towards to Let he just stood there as if he wouldn't get hurt. As the attack hit him forming dust around us and soon fading away I was shock to see that Let was no longer standing there any more. I started to look around the room to see where he was.

"Man where the hell did he go?" I said and then clicked my tongue "Hey show your self!" I yelled out

"Ne, Gajeel I think I know what type of magic he can use"

"You do?" I replied

"Yea I think its forbidden magic"

"Ding-Ding-Ding" I heard Let say "It looks like we have a winner" but he was still no where to be seen

"Show your self!"

"And of course the young lady gets a prize"

As he said that I heard someone approach us with full speed from behind us. I turned around as fast as possible to see Let coming towards Levy with his arm held up and his hand in a fist, ready to punch Levy. I ran in front of Levy to block the attack I got there on time.

"Well look what we have here looks like the young lady has a knight in shining armor"

"Where the hell were you hiding?"

"Me? Well since I can use forbidden magic, my magic can allow me to do this"

As he said that he had made clones of himself there were now about 10 of him. He then returned back to normal.

"My magic can allow me to do whatever I want with my body"

After he had finished explaining what he can do he had his arms grow long to hit us, but stopped before his fist can even hit our faces.

"Chance!" I said

I started to run towards Let to attack, but before I can even take another step I felt a small hand grab my wrist. I looked behind me to see that Levy was the one who stopped me

"Matte yo, Gajeel"

This girl must be out of her mind! The enemy is right in front of us and she wants me not to attack him? I thought to myself but managed to say "Nani? Naze!" I waited for a reply. An explanation would be better actually.

"Just look at him don't you see that he's not an enemy"

"What do you mean he isn't our enemy? He attacked us and stole the emerald! This means I can beat this guy to a pulp"

"Let me take care of this" Levy said as she started to walk towards Let.

I grabbed her wrist and said "What are you doing? You can't trust that guy; for all we know this could be part of his plan" She just stared at me and pulled her hand out of my grasp and proceeded to walk towards Let.

She was now face to face with Let she placed her hands on his shoulders looked straight into his eyes and gave a small smile. After a few seconds Let starts breaking down crying.

"Gomen' nasai" Let said "I didn't want to do this in the first place they made me do this, hurting people, stealing stuff, but I couldn't stop because they put a spell on me. Thank you so much."

"No problem, it wasn't that hard to tell" Levy said

I stood there dumfounded

What the hell! How could she tell something was wrong with him and I couldn't? I should have noticed first not shrimp

"So who are you and what are you doing here?

I heard Levy say which made me snap out of my thoughts.

"Like I said before my name is Let and I'm here because me and my "partner" were assigned to take that emerald." Let said while pointing at the now empty box.

"And why did you guys take the emerald?" I said harshly

"All I know is that they need that emerald to power up a device that can destroy this whole town. The reason is unknown to me, sorry."

"Who are you working for?"

"El Diablio's"

"Who's your partner?"

"He goes by the name X"

"Where's the emerald?"

"X has it"

"Where's X?"

"He ran out through the front to take it to our master"

I turned to face Levy and said "The other guys must have stopped him before he could even get out of the area."

She just nodded her head

"Wait you have other people with you?" I heard Let say I turned to face him and said

"Yea there are 4 other people with us, why you ask?"

"I think you guys should go and help them out. X is the strongest person in our group. He also uses forbidden magic, but X is truly evil he is not like me he chose this path to walk on."

"Then we better hurry" Levy said

I nodded and thanked Let for the help. Levy and I started to run towards the front entrance about half way there I heard Let say "Good luck guys!" As we finally got out of the building I saw Wendy unconscious, while Lucy, Laxus, and Romeo fight a guy who apparently is Let's partner, X. My eyes widened at what happen right before my eyes; Laxus, Romeo and me start to run towards...
