When they got there, Wendy, Makarov, Gajeel and Juvia were already in the waiting room.

Juvia and Wendy were crying, and Makarov and Gajeel were serious, much more than normal.

Natsu was the first to arrive, sweating, trembling.

.-"Where is Gray!?" - He asked abruptly. Wendy looked at the operating room, and Natsu quickly entered. However, he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Gray was on a stretcher, around several doctors. All the stretcher was full of blood. And he didn't seem to be alive. Suddenly, a machine that seemed to be measuring something of ice mage stopped short. That scared Natsu.

- "Doctor, his pulse stopped!" - Shouted one of the nurses nervously.

- "Give me the machine to revive him, FAST!" - The doctor ordered with initiative. One of the nurses quickly approached and then she noticed the presence of Natsu.

Natsu was in shock.

A stretcher full of blood.

No pulse.

They are having to use machines to revive him.

At that time he saw one of the doctors screaming him.

- "Can't you see that save his life may depend on a few seconds!?" - He asked angrily. However, none of that mattered.

Who was on stretcher was him.

All blood was his.

Who had remained pulseless was him.

Gray was dying. He was dying. And Natsu couldn't do anything to help him.

Suddenly he felt someone hugged from behind, it was Lucy, who before he knew it, she was gently him pushing one of the seats in the waiting room.

- "Lu... Lucy... Gray was... Gray was..." - He began with broken and trembling voice. At that time, he again felt the embrace of her companion. Natsu noticed Lucy's tears in his forehead.-"Gray was almost dead..."

Erza stood without his armor, only with her dress, very surprised and as nervous as others. Charle was on Wendy's lap, who also was crying.

- "How has this happened ...?" - Asked Erza as she crossed her arms.

- "I smelled blood and we went to the site, it was a alley. Then I realized that the person in the middle of the pool of blood was Gray-san".- Wendy with nervously started explain.- "Gajeel-san, Juvia-san and master, also came to feel the same smell. While Gajeel-san warned the ambulance, I tried to heal his wounds with the master... But... But... his wounds were too deep".- She finished explaining sobbed, feeling guilty for not have been able to help him. Makarov sighed, stroking girl's hair.

-"Don't feel guilty. There is only one culprit: the attacker".-Wendy nodded, still unable to leave crying. Gajeel, who was standing with his arms crossed, glanced at his ex-companion guild. He kept muttering mourn the name of her crush. He felt a sharp rage within him.

-"Damn! Whoever has done this will regret it!" - Gajeel yelled as he looked toward the operating room.

No one said anything. Everyone wanted revenge, but could not stop thinking about the possibility that Gray could leave them the same day.


Hours passed in silence, and finally a doctor came out of the operating room. Natsu looked at the doctor nervously. At that time, the doctor smiled gently while with two fingers of his hand touched Natsu's forehead.

-"Don't do that again, please. Your friend could have died".- The doctor explained still smiling. All rejoiced when they heard it. And Natsu was shedding tears before realizing.

- "Sorry, sorry..." - He muttered, as he dropped tears. The doctor smiled, accepting his apology.

- "How is Gray?" - Asked Erza, very nervous. The doctor sighed.

-"I'll be honest. He isn't yet out of danger. The next twenty-four hours will be crucial for him... Besides..."-He began to explain, somewhat nervous.-"The culprit knew what he was going. He tried kill him. Could it be that when Gray-san wakes up can't longer use magic. Or perhaps he can't walk never more. Or in the worst case... that he never wakes up and he ends with an irreversible vegetative state".-He ended explain something sad.-"Even the worst criminals don't deserve this."

All wizards were silent. What kind of monster would have done something like that? Why Gray?

Natsu was the first to speak.

- "I ... don't know who was who did this... but... What I do know is that I will not rest until find him.

Whoever has done this to Gray... I will destroy him".


In other side, a boy walked with nervously.

-"I wait that you're alive".-He muttered while watched a concrete site.

-"What's wrong, captain? Are you nostalgic?"-A voice asked back him, with a smile. The boy refused with his head.

-"Nostalgic? Why?"

-"Because… You are watching your old guild: Fairy Tail".

-"Ivon… What do you want?"

-"Have you finished your work?"

-"Yeah… He is almost dead".

-"Almost dead? ALMOST DEAD!?"

-"Yes".

-"You… you would have to have killed him!

-"I couldn't do it".

-"Why? You're more stronger than him".

-"When I went to kill him, Wendy suddenly appeared. And I didn't want do hurt her"

-"Mmm… Captain… I can kill him. And then we can back home!"

-"Home…"

-"Yeah, home. It isn't the best home, but… You know…"

-"You know that your home isn't my home. I haven't a thing like a home".

-"I know, captain. But you know... In my home is Lucy".

-"Ivon?"

-"Yes?"

-"Gray is in the hospital… Kill him".

-"Your orders are music for my ears".
