It was... Lincoln. He looked just like lincoln wearing his original clothes and smiling. The only differences were his eyes. They were red instead of lincolns regular eye color. Lincoln stared at him in suprise. He walked closer and pointed at lincolns chest.

"You're magic is what is causing this. It seems that on you're way here something unlocked and it is giving you magic." The lookalike said smiling still.

"Magic? Also who the hell are you?" Lincoln asked as his eyes widened. Why did he just curse? He never curses?

"This world's people have a energy best described as magic running through them allowing them to do amazing things. You have a very strange energy inside you mixing with you're magic. Also my name is insanity. You used to call me bun bun." Insanity explained.

"Wait bun bun... Like my plushy bun bun?" Lincoln asked in suprise.

"Before you had the plushie i was there. I was you're imginary freind. Now i'm back. Apparently you're magic needs someone to be you're helper and i was formed." Insanity walked up and sat beside lincoln.

"So you won't go crazy ghost and try to possess me or somethin?" Lincoln asked. Insanity shook his head with a smile.

"Nope. I actually can't control you unless you tell me too and even then you are in control. I am here to help make sure you stay alive and smiling and also to make sure to tell you who you can and can't kill." Lincoln stared at his hand.

"So i will have to kill here? Somehow i'm not suprised. So what should we do now?" Lincoln asked insanity.

"We wait till the others wake up then we leave. Oh and before i forget. If i get mad or you get mad or scared and if we are to happy, my face may change to look scarier. Like my eyes may go hollow and leak black stuff and my teeth will get sharp but this will also happen to you if you get mad." He stated still smiling.

"Okkkk so now what?" Lincoln asked feeling tired.

"Take a nap. I'll keep watch." Insanity said back. Lincoln bodded and layed down against a rock. As he slept insanity lost his smile and frowned.

"This world will be hard on him. I wish i could help linc more. But at least i can help him fight and be his friend." Insanity said aloud as his smile reapeared and he looked at the cave entrance.

Time skip

Lincoln slowly woke up and looked at the others to see them all waking up as well. Natsu saw him and looked about to attack before gajeel intervened and explained it to him.

Natsu then walked up and held his hand out to lincoln.

"Sorry for almost attacking you back there. I was worried that you were gonna try to kill us." Natsu said with a smile. Lincoln told him it was alright then shook his hand. They then started moving to go to the entrance. Lincoln felt a presence behind his shoulder and looked back to see insanity smiling at him. He turned back and they continued to the entrance. Upon reaching it lincoln turned to the others.

"I guess i'll be seeing ya later. I gotta go and- Where are you going?" Natsu cut him off. Lincoln looked at him confused before staring at the sky.

"I really have no idea. I am going somewhere to try and find my family and get to my home. Past that i haven't really thought this through."

"Then we'll go with you! We don't have anywhere to go and you helped us. A dragon slayer always pays back debts. We would probably dead without you. So you're stuck with us." Natsu said with a smile. Lincoln asked if they were sure and they all nodded. So lincoln smiled at them and they all left. Soon they came across a small town. As they entered everyone noticed a restuarant. They entered and lincoln let the others eat as he waited with the dark energy around him feuling him. Don't get him wrong he still had to eat and liked to eat but he could maintain himself off dark energy. And there was a lot in this town. He wondered why. He knew insanity was feeding him this info so he didn't really question it as much. As natsu noticed he wasn't eating he looked at lincoln confused. Lincoln told him he wasn't hungry and natsu continued to eat. Once everyone was finished lincoln paid with a pouuch of money he honestly had no idea he had. They continued towards the outskirts of the town when suddenly every door and window in the whole town slammed shut. They looked around confused as they heard a woman yell to them.

"You must get inside before it is to late! They are already here!" She the slammed her door and locked it. They all looked at each other confused as stomping was heard. They looked where it was coming from and saw a group of demonic looking soldiers marching towards them. They all got ready to fight as lincoln pulled off his scythe and the others activated there magic. The second he touched it his mind filled with how to use his weapon and he held it so that his blows would kill. Suprisingly the demons ignored them and continued on their way. Lincoln's group stared at their retreating backs before shruging together and continueing on. They had soon left the town and were currently walking through a feild.

They were halfway through when they heard a voice.

"Well isn't this interesting. 3 vagabonds and a failure." Lincoln and the others looked in the direction of the voice to see...

That demon scene may have seemed pointless but it has meaning and will be explained next chapter.
