"Who died and made you the person in charge?" Natsu raved when we got back to Fairy Tail, I crossed my arms and looked at him.
"If you must know, my master told me I need to come and help you guys out, that there had been an incident and you all were going to need my help. That is the only reason I am here." I glared at him.
"Children, please!" Rikku piped up, I glared at her.
"They have Lucy and I'm going to go after them! We're going to get her back!" Natsu totted to the door, Happy close behind him.
"I wouldn't advise that!" I growled after him, he stopped and looked at me.
"An outsider like you would never know how important she is to us! We're a family here, Lucy is apart of that family! Family helps family!" He growled back, I felt a ping in my chest. He was right, I was an outsider and I had no right to tell him what to do.
"Lana is right, Natsu," Erza came to my defense, "she may be an outsider to our guild but I'm sure the guild she belongs to thinks exactly the same way we do, I'm sure she knows exactly how you are feeling."
Natsu thought about it for a moment.
"I'm going to save her." With that he walked out of the guild. I sighed, there is no getting through to that kid once he has his mind set on something.
"So, Lucy, why is Phantom Lord after you?" I sat down in the chair across from her. I rested my head in the palm of my hand and looked at her carefully. Rikku sat down on the table next to me.
"Jose said that my father paid them..." She got choked up and I sighed.
"I see. so that's it. Jude Heartfilia wants his beloved daughter back." I slammed my fist on the table.
"Well he's not getting her." Natsu walked towards us. I stopped quickly and looked outside. I could have sworn I head some massive footsteps. I narrowed my eyes and walked outside. My eyes widened as I stared at the Phantom Lord Guild Hall. Everyone had run out after me.
"Now that we have your attention," Jose's voice boomed through the air, "please, give us Lucy Heartfilia. Her father wishes for her safe return."
"We would never give up Lucy! She's one of us!" Natus yelled back to Jose as everyone chimed in agreement.
"Is that so, then I guess we will have to kill all of you first. Release the Jupiter Cannon!" Jose yelled. The guild began to change and transform, a huge cannon pointed towards the Fairy Tail Guild. The cannon began to absorb a huge amount of magic power.
"Everyone, get back!" I screamed and ran towards them, "Sun Dragon's Divine Protection!"
A huge, white barrier covered the Fairy Tail Members, I looked back and saw Erza there in her Adamatine Armor, her stongest defense armor.
"Erza, no!" I reached for her right as the cannon released it's power. Her shield took the full force of the cannon, I saw it start to slowly crack under the pressure. Once the blast dissipated I saw Erza fall. Her armor had shattered and she had been left gravely injured. I released the barrier and ran after her, Natsu close on my heel. I picked her head up and rested it on my leg.
"We need to take Lucy somewhere safe." I whispered to Natsu and he nodded at me. Mirajane walked over to us.
"I'll take her." She nodded to me slowly, I moved so the she could take her. I stood up, fists clenched; two little paws touched my fist. I looked down to see Rikku there, she gave me a sad look.
"We have no choice." I looked down at her.
"But, I don't want you to lose control again." Tears started to well up in her eyes. I crouched down and hugged her.
"Don't worry, I won't let that happen again." I kissed her forehead and stood up.
"You don't have to help us, you're not even a part of our guild." Natsu walked up next to me; Gray, Elfman and Happy were next to him.
"I know, but after what they have done to all of you, there is no way I can turn my back anymore."
"Then what are we waiting for?" Natsu grinned at me, his smile reminding me of a Cheshire Cat.
"Well now, it appears the great Titania Erza has fallen, what will you do now? Your master has fallen and now one of your strongest members. If you don't bring us Lucy Heartfilia within the next 15 minutes Jupiter will fire again and I'm fairly certain this time Fairy Tail won't survive." I could hear the smile in his voice.
"15 minutes, huh? Well, all we have to do is take that cannon out within 15 minutes and they won't be able to do anything then." Natsu cracked his knuckles.
"Then what are we waiting for?" Gray smiled, his hands in his pockets.
"A real man would NEVER wait!" Elfman pipped up.
"Then lets get going," I looked at Rikku, "stay here okay. I'll be back."
She shook her head.
"No, I'm coming with you." She used her Aera Magic and flew beside me and I couldn't help but smile.
"Well then, are we going?" I stepped forward.
"Oh, yeah, I'm getting all fired up!" Natsu smirked next to me and we all leapt towards the Phantom Lord Guild. We were going to stop this, once and for all.
