Chapter Two:

Makarov: I've gotten word from Raven Tail and they will join us in about 12 minutes. The other masters and I have come up with a diversion. I've split everyone into groups that I have chosen to benefit the situation better. There is group FRA(Far Range Attack), group IMZ(Immobilize), group MR(Mid-Range) and the last group CC(Close Combat). I've listed your each of your names in one of the groups. As you all know, not all of the dragons are here yet. In future Lucy's prophecy, it was 10,000. Right now we are only taking on 100 of them. However the other dragons could appear at any given time.

Gray: So how are we doing this, Gramps?

Makarov: Ah yes, I'm getting to that Gray. I have these groups listed on the board and it seems as if the dragons are on the outskirts of northern Fiore. I will send two groups on one trail some of you are familiar with which is Gildan and that will allow you to sneak up hopefully behind the enemy and the other two groups will be approaching in front of the dragons. What we will need to do is rend the dragons so they aren't able to move then we will use far strikes, mid-range strikes and then get those whom are skilled in close combat. We must do all that we can to bring them down.

*Mission is immobilize, far range, Mid-Range and close combat*

Jellal: When will we all being our mission?

Makarov: We will head out in about 30 minutes after we are divided up into groups.

Makarov: Yes. Is every one ready? Remember to give this all of your power and strength, this is war. Don't only look out for yourselves but also look out for your comrades! We are strong, much stronger than our opponent and to help save the ones we love will make us even stronger. Now here's how it goes. Group CC and group IMZ is going on the trail that will lead you in front while Group MR and FRA is going to take Gildan. Does every one understand? I wish you all the best, you are all great kids and masters. Now lets go! *yelling so everyone can hear*

Everyone: *Inspired and ready* Yeahhhh!

*Each two groups are about to split up and go down the trails they were assigned to take*

Natsu: Luce! Wait!

Lucy: Yes? *looks up nervously*

Natsu: Everything is going to be alright, I swear. I won't let anything happen to you. *grabs her hand* when fighting for your comrades it truly does make us stronger. Just like mater said, just like we always say.

Lucy: Natsu.. *tears in her eyes*

Natsu: So promise me that you will stay strong Lucy and don't back down, no matter what. I'll always be there to protect you, remember that. And I'm going to take all of these assholes down! *grins*

Lucy: *Hugs Natsu* And I'm going to take them down with you!

Natsu: *gasps* Lucy... *grins* That's what I like to hear!

Gildarts: It's time to split up now, lets go. Good luck to everyone. Come on Natsu.

*The groups are now walking down their trails mentally and physically preparing their selves for battle*

Lucy: Wendy, are you okay?

Wendy: I don't think I could ever be ready for this..but I have no choice.

Lucy: Don't worry, we are Fairy Tail wizards. We could take on anything as long as we all stick together. Think about it. *smiles and tries to cheer Wendy up*

Wendy: *giggles* Yeah I guess you're right.

Carle: That was nicely put, Lucy.

Happy: Aye!

Lucy's thoughts: I know we can do this. Thanks for that talk Natsu and for all of my friends lending me their strength. I'm truly ready now. Here we go! *determined*
