Levy walked down the street with Jet and Droy, humming. Both were unsure of the decision she had just made.

"But Levy, don't you want to stay with Laki at the girl's dorms?" Jet asked. Levy shook her head.

"I don't want to split our team apart!" she chirped. Both boys had hearts flying out of them at that statement.

"We'll protect you, Levy!" they chorused.

Meanwhile, Gajeel Redfox stood on a roof, watching them. "They'll be easy enough." he grinned, and flew down towards the blue haired midget, who seemed to be their leader. Levy turned around in shock as a figure suddenly sped towards her, and she was thrown against a wall. She cried out at the impact.

As she looked up her brown eyes locked with red eyes, she gave him an evil look, she was ready to fight this creep, and she tried to pull out of his grasp.

"LEVY!" Droy yelled. "LET GO OF HER!"

Gajeel grinned. "Or what?!"

"I, I, I'll kill you, with my mighty powers of persuasion."

Gajeel laughed at the reply. Levy started to whimper as Gajeel's elbow started crushing her throat. He picked her up, and slammed her against a wall again.

"SOLID SCRIPT! SOFT!" Levy cast the spell, and wasn't inured as she made impact with the wall.

Gajeel was not too happy with that for he wanted to harm this small chested shrimp, He walked over to her again, as he got closer she stood up from the ground prepared to fight him.

Gajeel threw an iron rod at her, which she did her best to block with her solid script: guard. However, it broke through the spell and sent her flying. Jet ran at Gajeel, aiming a kick at him.

Gajeel with his awesome reflexes was able to block the attack and also send Jet flying back into a thorny bush. As Gajeel was looking at Jet in the bushes he couldn't help but be satisfied.
Levy noticing Gajeel's distraction ran at him.

"Solid Script: Fire!" She cast the word, but it didn't seem to affect him. He just looked annoyed.

The fight went on for an hour, until all three Shadow Gear members collapsed in exhaustion.

Gajeel looked like he didn't have a scratch on him; he smirked in satisfaction at the collapsed members.

He knew exactly where to put their unconscious bodies. He especially liked the idea he had gotten for the girl. He was going to pin them on the tree in the park, and he was going to brand this little midget.

Gajeel grinned, imagining the reaction of their trashy guild. He was going to love it.

And they were in a way going to love it because he said so and what he says goes.

"Please..." Levy whispered. "Just leave us alone..."

"Or what?" He asked, picking her up by the scruff of her neck, so that their faces were level with each other. Levy glared at him.

"You mess with one of us," she rasped. "You mess with our entire guild. You're going to regret this."

"As if." Gajeel snorted he highly doubted that he was going to regret what he did, because he's Gajeel Redfox, he doesn't regret anything.

Gajeel gave her a punch in the side, and she cried out as she felt her bones give way.

She closed her eyes not wanting tears to come to her eyes, she didn't want to be seen anymore weak than apparently this creep saw her as.

Gajeel took his time in using his iron to keep them pinned to the tree in Magnolia's park. Levy was the only one who was still conscious. She looked at him with hateful eyes as he painted his Guild's emblem on her stomach. She was too tired, and too injured to stop it. Finally, he left, and she let her eyes drift closed.

Later she woke up to a crowd surrounding hers and the others. She noticed the angry look of her master, she was so weak that she couldn't stay awake, before she welcomed blackness again her last thoughts that all hell was going to break loose from what happened to her and the rest of her team.
