Two months to update, yes I know. TOOO LATE and I stopped in the best part. So sorry. This was the most difficult semester but now its finished. I have my freedom back! Hope this chapter worth the waiting and you would enjoy it :D


Gray kept staring at the mage; still not believing that the same mage he saw in his dreams is really present.

The mage got closer to him "What were you thinking? Letting yourself get attacked by some stupid wolf and what were you doing here?"

"It's his way of saying that he is worry about you Gray!" Gray blinked few times at the blue flaying…cat?

"I'M NOT" the pinked-haired yelled at the blue cat.

Gray all of sudden placed his hands on Natsu shoulder "It's really you!"

Natsu titled his head on confusion. He was expecting some punches and kicks since they arrived late but for some reason, Gray did nothing to him.

"You are that pinked-haired!"

pinked-haired? Is this some kind of new insult?

"Tell me who are you? Who am I? What is this symbol we share?" Gray was sweating, yes he kept telling himself that he can wait until he remembers his memories but in real, he was eager to know everything. He is tired of having a blank memory, where is nothing in there.

He only managed to remember that Ur women who seems to be his mentor but nothing else and the chance came, someone whom he have connection appeared.

Natsu and Happy jaws dropped, they were too shock to replay. They soon recovered from their shook, and Natsu was gazing at Gray face. His expression didn't show any signs of joking and that made Natsu expression turn serious.

"Natsu, why Gray says these things?" Happy kept looking back and forth both on Natsu and Gray.

Then the three girls approaches the boys, Lucy said "Oh thank god Gray, you are safe. We were so worried."

Levy continued after her "Yes, we have been searching for you for days."

Erza was angry, her hands were crossed "So, why didn't you inform us that you were fine and that you are staying in this town?"

"Well…I…" he wasn't sure of how to tell them.

"I think something is wrong with Gray." Happy flied to the girls "He keep saying weird things."

"Wrong? What happened?" Erza looked at Happy, her expression demanded more details from the cat.

Natsu said in calm voice "Did you forget…your memories?"

The girls turned their faces to Natsu, wondering why the fire mage would say something weird as this.

Before Gray would answer, Aiden said to them "He has amnesia." his sister was supporting him as the man who supported him before had fled away.

"WHAT?" the girls said in unison.

"R-really?" Lucy asked him. Gray nodded at her.

"T-t-that's why he didn't contact us." Erza felt guilty, she hugged him. She had forgotten that she was still wearing her armor. The poor ice mage head slammed her armor.

"Urgh"

Lucy and Levy were nervous "E-Erza, I think you are hurting him."

"Oh, I'm sorry Gray." She released him.

"Good thing that Juvia isn't here or she would flood this town." Lucy was laughing nervously.

Levy turned to Aiden and his sister "Do you know the cause of his amnesia?"

Mary answered her "He hit his head."

Gray sighed "You know, instead of talking about me, why don't you tell me everything you know?"

"Well I don't think this is the right time." Aiden said.

"Why not?" Gray turned at him, he saw Aiden pointing at demons "Look, the rest are coming."

"Leave this to us." Natsu was grinning, his fist were in fire.

The girls nodded and launched at the demons, before Natsu follow them; he tuned to Gray and said "When we finish this, we will tell you everything."

Gray nodded at him then followed Mary to her home; the girl insisted that he must treat his and her brother wounds.

XX

Mary had finished treating Gray wounds and he was resting on the bed. He had heard the door open which means the other mages finished their fight. That's was fast for this big number of demons. They are strong mages, he felt their magical power.

Aiden was resting on a bed not far from him, he was sleeping peacefully. Bandages warped most of his body; he must have a tight time.

Gray woke up and headed to the room the mages were in, when he opened the door, Mary was surprised "Why are you here? You shouldn't move."

"I'm fine. Besides we can't have discussion over there, your brother is sleeping."

"It just as he said, you are quite stubborn." Gray sat on the couch next to her.

Erza talked to Mary "Don't worry, we have defeated the demons. No one left."

"Not really." Gray responded. "There is still Nolan."

Mary nodded in agreement "He is their leader."

"Sending his subordinates to fight us without showing up, Hmph, what a good leader." Natsu mocked him. "I bet he fled away."

Natsu wasn't interested in their leader nor was eager to fight him. The demons were weak, and probably their leader is weak too.

"No." Gray answered in confident "He is planning something and it's not good."

"How do you know?" Levy asked him.

Gray was thinking, according to Shou, he said that Nolan fled when they faced the demon slayer. It's plausible for him to flee again. But he remembered something, the second construction site. It was important to him; it had more security and was next to his mansion. He won't just leave it and run away, wouldn't he?

"I..I'm not sure."

"You are exaggerating things Gray." Natsu said to him. "Even if he is still around, we would teach him lesson as we did with his subordinates."

"Natsu right Gray, don't worry." Lucy said in cheerful voice "Oh right, we didn't introduce ourselves."

"I'm Lucy, and this is Levy and Erza." She pointed at them. Happy continued after her "I'm Happy and this Natsu, a dragon slayer!" Happy said proudly.

"Wow, I never heard of a dragon slayer before!" Mary said.

"Natsu is not the only one! We have other dragon slayers in the guild" Happy was flaying in front of Mary.

"Really, that's amazing!"

"We also have a demon slayer! It's Gray!"

Gray eyes widened, he blinked few times, he clutched his head "I'm… a… demon slayer?"

Lucy hit Happy's head "Stupid Cat, you shouldn't say things so suddenly to him. Remember, he has amnesia!"

"I'm sorry" Happy apologized in sad tone.

Levy stuttered "H-How should we explain this?"

Erza sighed and ordered "Gray take a rest. You are tired."

Gray got angry, by the way she is saying it, she probably won't tell him about his memories. Why wouldn't they tell him everything already?

"I'm fine."

"No, you are not. Have a look at yourself."

"You are not my mother! And I told you I'm fine, just tell me!"

Erza shot him a glare; she summoned one of her sword. Lucy and Levy jumped from surprised and tried to calm her down.

Mary turned to Gray "I have to agree with her, Gray."

Gray clenched his fists; it was clearly to them that he is angry. They felt sorry, but telling him everything would be a difficult task. They get why Erza ordered him to rest, Gray suffered in his life and she wanted him to be in his best state.

He headed back to the infirmary. Rest? He had enough rest, he doesn't need more. He sat on one of the beds next to the window. A demon slayer? He understand now why Shou said that his ice hurt him.

He looked through the window toward the construction site, his expression became serious. "Nolan is probably there." He smiled "I guess, I'll give him a visit."

Gray opened the window and dashed toward Nolan location.

XX

Aiden woke up from his sleep, he rubbed his eyes. He noticed that the window were open. He recalled that before he slept, his sister closed them. He looked thoroughly at the infirmary; there were no signs of Gray. He probably woke up before him. Aiden headed to the living room, he saw the Fairy mages sitting with his sister chatting.

"Oh Aiden, How do you feel? Are you still in pain?"

Aiden patted her head and gave her a gentle smile "I'm perfectly fine."

Mary turned at the fairies and introduced him to them; the mages introduced themselves to him.

"I never thought I'd meet mages from Fairy Tail, it is really an honor. Thank you for saving us."

"No, we are the one who thank you for taking care of Gray"

"Well, not really me, Erza. I was against it. Mary is the one who saved him."

Mary felt nervous "No, no, I was only doing my job. "

"Still, you helped him" Erza smiled at her, Mary wouldn't believe that she is the same scary girl a little while ago.

"Hmm, so where is Gray?" Aiden noticed that he wasn't present with them.

"He is in the infirmary."

"Are you sure Mary? No one is there."

Mary blinked "Huh? But I saw him going there."

Natsu stood; feeling irritated "That idiot."

"What's wrong Natsu?" Lucy felt that Natsu knows something.

"He is probably heading to No-something!"

Erza without saying anything went to the infirmary. She saw the opened window and bit her lips. She announced to the rest "We are going after him, Natsu follow his scent."

He nodded and jumped through the window, the others followed him.

XX

Gray approached the still in constructing building; he could feel something in it. He opened the big doors, there was a long passage. Gray was walking with steady steps, looking at the creepy walls. Reaching the end of the passage he saw a wide area. In it was a tank filled with liquid. Nolan was standing in front of the tanks, this tank had someone.

"I'm not going to let you destroy what I've worked hard for these years. I'm going to revive him."

"Revive? Are you crazy?"

"Unlike me, He made a contact with the Underworld King. He is immortal! And this place is the perfect replica of Hell's core. I'll revive him!" Nolan was laughing maniacally.

"I don't know what are you talking about but I'm going to stop you."

Gray slammed his fist in his palm and he was about to launch an attack at him. However, Nolan disappeared from his place and reappeared at Gray's right side. Gray raised his hands to protect himself from Nolan kick. His kick was strong enough to send him flaying and hit the wall.

Gray noticed how Nolan form changed. His body became more muscular. He would try and create lances and shot it at him. Nolan with great speed managed to dodge each lance, then he came close and landed a kick on his stomach.

Gray felt the air leave his lungs, he gasped for air. He was coughing and his abdomen injury seems to be open for the second time.

He shouldn't have underestimated Nolan. He thought that with his demon slayer magic, he will have defeated him easily.

"Your power…reminds me of that person." Nolan talked as he was looking at Gray. "Absolute Zero, Silver."

Gray eyes widened upon hearing the name, the name was too familiar. Flashes of the man holding him came back, how Gray was crying at that moment, and how he knew that person.

He held his head of pain. He was having a great pain. Nolan took advantage of the confused ice mage and gripped his neck. He started squeezing it strongly.

Gray couldn't act and protect himself. His mind busy, he was confused and in pain. Nolan was gripping more; the ice mage was feeling dizzy and started to lose his conscious. At this rate, Nolan will break his neck and he will end up dead.

Gray was about to close his eyes; he was tired and couldn't keep them open. He was losing his consciousness. Suddenly, a fist engulfed with fire was meeting with Nolan face. He felt Nolan loosed his grip and he felt himself falling on the ground.

He heard loud voices, calling him and threatening the demon. He started coughing hardly; he felt a warm hand rubbing his back, trying to calm him down.

Slowly he opened his eyes, the Fairy Tail mages had arrived. Natsu and Erza were clashing with Nolan. Lucy was one who rubbing his back. Levy was beside her.
