Welcome back! Thank you to DevilHunterMistress for my first favorite on this story, and if you could, please review, those will make updates faster, and help improve the story. And of course there is a disclaimer, I don't own FT, but I do own Anguem and Moraki, so don't use them without my permission, or I will sic Moraki on you.

"Ssso, isss thisss the book?" Anguem asked the stranger who we had met earlier.

"I think would you mind if I took a closer look?" He replied, with a completely neutral expression and voice.

"I will, if you tell me who you creator isss!" Anguem replied with an angry hiss, confusing Team Natsu.

"What do you mean by creator Anguem?" Wendy asked, taken aback by my sudden rage.

"He'sss another ssspecter, he wantsss the book for hisss creator," Angeum replied calmly, his eyes pointed in a death glare pointed at the specter.

"What gave me away?" The specter asked, still emotionless.

"Quite a bit, really, when we firssst met, you ssstepped out of the plantsss, but you didn't russstle them, no physssical being could have done that. You alssso disssplayed no emotion when we ssshowed you the magic book, but asssked to sssee it, and, there'sss the irrefutable fact that my hand hasss passsssed through your stomach," Anguem replied, with venom in his voice, as well attempting to remove his hand from the specter's stomach, which he had placed there while he was talking.

"You're much smarter than maker gave you credit for, maker said all you had was brute strength, I must egress to maker now," the specter said, slowly sparkling and fading.

"Moraki, go, venom mix, thoughtleech plusss ssspectral venom, twin fang," Anguem said calmly as Moraki began to slither forward off of Anguem's back, then sunk his fangs into the specter, causing it to glow green and turn into a vapor. After Moraki had receded back into a cloak and Anguem inhaled the vapor, his eyes glowing a sickly green. "That wasss Moraki's thoughtleech venom, it turnsss memoriesss into a vapor, whomever inhalesss the vapor then knowsss the memory," Anguem said, seeing the puzzled looks in everyone's face. "If thessse memoriesss are reliable, hisss maker ssshould be," Anguem continued, pausing climactically. "That way," He finished, pointing toward the forest, "There'sss a sssmall bassse there, it ssseemsss almossst like a guild hall, almossst," Anguem continued.

"We should get going, the sun will set soon, and I'm guessing this 'maker' won't let our little attack on his specters go unnoticed," Erza calmly stated.

As Team Natsu and Anguem arrived at the strange hideout/guild hall in the woods, they were trying to be as sneaky as possible, well, everyone except for Natsu of course, who had to be detained by Moraki, and was none too pleased about it.

"An all-out attack isssn't our bessst ssstrategy Natsssu, I don't care what you think, we need a plan, if the memoriesss from the ssspecter are correct, there are a lot of people there, and I don't want to draw too much attention to usss," Anguem said, clearly annoyed at Natsu.

"Mmmf mmmf, mmg!" Natsu tried to say through Moraki, who was covering his mouth as well as pinning him down.

"Natsu said, 'I can take'em, let me go!'" Happy translated Natsu's muffled speech.

"You know, Natsu actually is a pretty decent fighter, he probably could take out anyone down there," Lucy said, feeling sorry for Natsu as he had the life squeezed out of him by a giant snake.

"MMMFMM!" Natsu tried to scream

"Natsu's mad at Lucy for calling him only decent. Its ok Natsu, she only thinks that because she's so stupid,"

"Stupid?! I will feed you to Moraki if you quit being so mean to me, cat!" Lucy shouted angrily.

"Do not ussse Moraki asss a threat, if you want to hurt the cat, ussse your own magic and your own time, right now, we have to figure out how to take down thisss guild," Anguem said, his ever calm and monotonous voice touched with anger.

"There's no way in, we're going to have to take it by storm," Erza said, just returning from scouting out the area.

"Fine, we will take the guild hall by ssstorm tomorrow morning, in the meantime, get some rest, and prepare for battle," Anguem said, still slightly annoyed from when Lucy used Moraki as a threat.

Me: Yes Natsu, I ended on another cliffhanger, what are you going to do about it?

Natsu: Karyu No Hoko.

Me: Author types "Author is protected from Natsu by an impenetrable magic barrier".
