And here comes chapter 6!
Still don't own Fairy Tail -.-
Chapter 6 – The attack
Natsu's POV
This train ride… I can't take this anymore! I'M GONNA PUKE!
-Train stops-
OH MY GOD IT STOPPED! YESSSSSSSSS! That was long enough. Six hours on a train is worst then getting beaten up by Erza a hundred times. Time to head back to the guild and rest.
As I entered the guild, a familiar pair of eyes stares at me with a glare.
"Hey salamander how was the missions?" the fire god slayer asked.
Mission? What mission….? OH CRAP! I FORGOT ABOUT THE MISSION!
"uhhh…. I failed?" I said with a nervous smile.
"YOU FAILED A MISSION?! DARK SHADOW NEVER FAILED A MISSION BEFORE! YOU'RE GONNA RUIN OUR REPUTATION AS THE STRONGEST DAKR GUILD!" Caleb shouted fiercely with fire in his eyes.
"Strongest dark guild? I thought Girmoire Heart was…" I smirked while sweat falls down from my forehead.
"I'm gonna kill you…" Caleb said under his breath.
"Not again…"
"The guild is gonna go down soon if this keeps up."
"Someone call the master before it gets out of hand."
As I was fighting to stay alive from all the god fire, I notice Shadow on the second floor.
"Master" I hear everyone say in unison.
Shadow slowly walked down the stairs while everyone was staring.
"Could you guys just stop fighting for one day?" the tall man asked.
Caleb and I glared at each other.
"I have some news, tomorrow were going to attack Fairy Tail." Shadow said seriously.
We're going to attack Fairy Tail? Already? I haven't found out all of Shadow's power yet. What should I do?
"Natsu, I hope you're okay with this." Shadow asked me.
"Why… wouldn't I be..? I … I waited for this moment for a long time now.." I said nervously.
"Okay everyone get rested and prepare to battle those fairy trash." Shadow smirked and walked away.
Everyone went to their rooms to get prepared while I stare in space, thinking of what to do.
"Hey Salamander, I hope you're ready tomorrow." Caleb smirked at me and walked away to his room.
I went to my room and locked the door. What should I do? It's too late to tell Erza and the rest. I guess I'll have to take on the entire guild myself. But can I do it? Should I even go? I mean they claim that they're stronger then Grimoire Heart and Grimoire Heart is pretty strong. Can Fairy Tail really beat them? What am I thinking? I'm not a coward and Fairy Tail will never lose. We fought many guilds that were stronger than us like Grimoire Heart and Sabertooth and we came back safe. Okay, I've decided, when we reach Fairy Tail tomorrow I'll take Dark Shadow down a long side with my friends. But if they find out that I'm still part of Fairy Tail before we get to Magnolia, my life will be at risk. But that won't stop me. I'll protect Fairy Tail. I'll protect everyone, including Lucy.
The next day
The sun is shining brightly, today is the day that my mission will come to an end. Today is the day that I'll have to fight Dark Shadow. I can't wait! I'm all fired up! I wonder how strong this guild really is. I haven't seen every member fight. Well really, the only one I saw fight was Caleb. Caleb… the second strongest in Dark Shadow, just beside Master Shadow. I truly wonder how strong he is when he uses his full power. I guess I'll have to find out later today.
I met up with the other members and we all surrounded Master Shadow. Wait, why are we surrounding Shadow? In a glimpse second, we were at the outskirts of Magnolia. Whoa! He uses teleport magic? How strong is Shadow?! Is he stronger then Master Hades?
"Alright lets crush those Fairies into dust." yelled Caleb with a maniacally laugh, similar to Zancrow's.
We start to approach the Fairy Tail building. This is it. I just hope this ends in a nice way.
Normal POV at Fairy Tail
It was the same usual day at Fairy Tail. Everyone was talking and laughing. Suddenly there was a loud boom. The front door was broken down. Everyone turned around to see what happened.
Lucy's POV
There was a loud noise coming from the front of the guild. I turned around to see the door broken, and I see a bunch of mages standing there. I recognize one of them. It was NATSU! What is he doing here?
"Hiya Fairy losers, we're Dark Shadow. The strongest dark guild in the world." yelled Caleb with a smirk.
"So, they finally arrived." Erza said calmly.
Dark guild? Natsu is part of a dark guild?! How can this be? Did he turn against Fairy Tail to join them and now to destroy his former family? I can't believe this. Natsu you have fallen too far… And what does Erza mean by "they finally arrived"? Did she know they were going to come? What is going on?
Natsu's POV
I see my family, my friends. And I see Lucy. She looks depressed and mad as she stares at me. I'm also sad to see her like this and I want to be there for her, but we must first take down Dark Shadow. I slowly walked towards my friends, and turned around to look at Dark Shadow with a glare.
"My name is Natsu Dragneel and I'm a member of Fairy Tail!" I Shouted while rubbing off the Dark Shadow mark and the magic stamp gramps gave me to reveal my Fairy Tail symbol.
"So, you are a double agent after all, salamander. Me and master Shadow suspected as much." smirked Caleb.
"Oh my Natsu, you chose the most horrible way to die. First you'll see all your friends die, then we'll slowly kill you." Shadow said in a calm tone while smirking.
Lucy's POV
Natsu… Natsu is a double agent? Is that why he left the guild? To become a double agent and to spy on Dark Shadow? Now that I think about it, was I only one that didn't know? Is that why everyone was calm when Natsu left? I can feel tears forming in the corner of my eye. Why didn't Natsu tell me?
"Hey Luce, I'm sorry that I haven't told you earlier. I just didn't want you to be in danger." Natsu whispered to me.
He didn't want me to be in danger? I feel a blush coming. So Natsu really does care about me.
I nodded at him giving him a smile. I notice him blush a bit and then he stared angrily at the other guild. I now see everyone fighting. The guild is getting trashed but my friends are fighting hard. I should join them. I summoned Loke and he went a beat a few members of the dark guild.
Natsu's POV
I can't tell if I'm strong or this guild sucks. How can they call themselves the strongest dark guild when half their members are unconscious while all members of Fairy Tail were still fighting? I notice that Caleb and Master Shadow were standing outside just watching. They seem calm, too calm. After a few more minutes, the entire guild was wiped out besides those two. Master Shadow and Caleb made their way in with a smirk. Makarov made his way down the stairs to see what is going on.
"Now I know why Fairy Tail was the strongest legal guild in Fiore. I'm impressed Makarov, but let see how you trash do against me." Master Shadow laughed.
We all started running towards Master Shadow as the gramps stayed behind to analyze his powers. While I was going to attack Shadow, I see Caleb staring at me.
"Hey salamander, why don't we end our rivalry today?" he smirked.
I accepted his challenge and we moved outside where we would have a better battlefield. I'll just leave Shadow to the master and the others. Right now I'll have to take down Caleb.
"Hey salamander, I never trusted you in the first place."
"Oh really, well why don't we end this here and now."
"Alright."
"I'm all fired up!"
I charge towards Caleb like how I usually do to my enemies.
"Fire god's bellow!" Caleb yelled. A blast of black fire came out of Caleb's mouth.
I quickly dodged. This was one of Zancrow's attack. So he is now using his true powers.
"I'm not going to go easy this time salamander."
"Bring it on."
I thrust forward while yelling "Iron fist of the fire dragon!" It hit Caleb on the chest but it didn't even leave a mark.
"I thought you were stronger then this dragon slayer. Show me the power you used to defeat Zancrow!" the orange haired man smirked.
"Roar of the fire dragon!" I yelled.
"Didn't I tell you that fire magic won't work against…" Caleb said while eating eating my flames.
I notice Caleb sucking in air.
"Take this salamander, Fire god's cloud!" Caleb shouted while a cloud of black fire came out of his mouth.
It was impossible to escape the fire cloud. When it made contact, it burned me. The same magic as Zancrow. Fire that even I can't eat unless emptying out my own. But this fire was different then Zancrow's, it was hotter. I scream in pain. Then he hit me with a Fire god's scythe. A large scythe made with black flames hit me and sent me flying and I land on to the ground. I can hear the fire god's laugh.
Can I beat him? He's on a totally different level then when I was fighting him before. Is this why Dark Shadow is the strongest dark guild? Is it because Caleb was in it? Is it because of his powers that made Dark Shadow rank number one? If Caleb was that strong, then how powerful is master Shadow?
Lucy's POV
Master shadow is strong. Everyone in the guild was tired, even Erza and master. Can we really beat this monster? Master stated that he was above Master Hades before he used the devil's eye. But wait, where's Natsu? I search around for him as the members that are still conscious fight with Shadow. I finally found him outside battling with the other member. I quickly ran out to help him but he was sent flying by a large black scythe.
"NATSUUUUUUUUUUU!" I screamed while running to him.
"Hey….Hey Luce…" Natsu said in pain.
"Natsu are you okay?!" I shouted about to cry.
"I'm fine Luce… I'm sorry for not telling you." He said as he was groaning in pain.
"It's okay, I forgive you." I said trying to cheer him up.
I helped Natsu up and then looked at the orange haired man who was staring at us.
"How pitiful, a beautiful woman hanging around with a pile of trash. Maybe that makes you trash to. But if you come with me, I'm sure you'll have a great time." smirked the god slayer.
I looked away and turned to Natsu. He had an angry look in his face, like he would kill that man.
"You can insult me. You can insult my strength. But you can't insult Fairy Tail. ESPECIALLY LUCY!" Natsu roared with anger.
I blushed a bit knowing that he really cared for me.
"Well let's see what you're gonna do." smirked Caleb.
I quickly moved away from Natsu, knowing that whoever pisses him off will not have a happy ending.
"Lucy, stand back. I'm going to use my full power and beat this guy." Natsu grinned at me and looked at Caleb.
