[Somewhere Dark, Cold, and Damp]

In the cold, damp darkness, there is this dungeon, where an evil dictator keeps all his "test" subjects. There he spends hours upon hours extracting precious magical powers from them. He will let them go on the verge of death with little to no magic powers. Some survive, but others do not. But in this cold, damp darkness, you can hear screams of two young girls, begging for one man to save them. One girl with brilliant white hair that rivals the color of the new fallen snow and the other with beautiful blonde hair that puts the angels' halos' to shame as well as the rising sun, as they scream in pain, one girls' eyes would flash open shining an iridescent but cold red eyes. She will smirk and push herself off the table she was lying on and saunter to the other girl as if the previous torture regimens did no harm to her.

She would smile at the girl in pain and whisper, "He is not yours but hers. You will never have him again. You are shit, you are trash, and you are nothing but Hades bitch. When I find him, he will be nothing more but a pile of ashes. Then the girl inside will be gone forever, Lisanna Strauss I applaud you for your imagination of love that you might think you have. But I pity you, because the one he loves is Lucy Heartfilia, my other half."

[Hades POV]

I looked over at the blonde mage. Darkness radiates off her skin. Her magical powers were something that I too fear. I can't control it. No matter how much I would extract, it will never see no end. Lucy Heartfilia, exactly who were your ancestors. "How do they manage to gather this much power without killing themselves, is your line that powerful?"

I turn my attention back to the white haired take over mage. She was crying and begging me to stop. I grinned wickedly at her. I began the extracting process all over again. I will soon let her go.

Glancing up, I see Lucy Heartfilias' glowing red eyes. Fear ran through me. She was much stronger than anticipated. I must be cautious and thankful for now that she allows me to extract magic powers from her. I, Hades, am afraid of a little blonde girl.

[REINS' POV]

I changed my name, my appearance, my clothes, and my hair. I changed everything about myself to not remind me of who I use to be. This is the new me. Hair as dark as the night, black clothes to match, my eyes were lined with black eyeliner, but my eyes were the only color of my remake, I liked it.

I would stalk through the cities of Fiore to find my next victim. One after the other I would take and show no mercy. She would complain and try to stop me, crying in anguish when the life of someone was taken away. She would curse me to the depths of hell and after I would remind her she would be there with me. Silence echoed through my head. Satisfied I took up my killing spree again.

Throughout Fiore, I was making a name for myself. The red eyed demon Rein. There was one thing no one knew, but she knows of my true intention. I have rules you see. I only kill the people that are truly damned for eternity. Taking requests after requests from a nearby assassin's guild I would do my duty I owed to the world. All the while, I am searching for the man who made me this way. Cold and unforgiving, I may seem damned but I truly am not. I seek revenge upon the one who took every last precious thing away from me. Because the same will be thrust upon him and the things he loves most in the world.

[FEW HOURS LATER]

Slipping into the shadow of the alleyway I stalked my next victim. He was the lowest of the low, a serial rapist. People would glance fearfully in each dark alleyway, fearing that their nightmares would come true. As I followed my victim, I chanced upon a familiar figure.

Quickly grabbing my target, subdued him and broke his neck, I continue to follow the familiar figure.

[NATSU'S POV]

"AH! *SNAP*"

I looked around alarmed by the sound. I see a dark figure walk towards me. Something about the person seemed familiar. The person stopped suddenly, glanced up at me, and slipped down a dark alleyway. All this happened in a blink of an eye, but no before I caught the color of their eyes.

They were cold and red. The same eyes that graced the face of my beloved, springing into action I raced after her. Erza, Gray, Gajeel, and Happy raced after me.

"She is here!" I yelled back at them.

A collective gasp ran through the whole group and I hear the quickening pace of their running feet. We must bring her home. Lucy.

[REIN'S POV]

Sprinting down the alleyway, I heard the feet of my pursuers. They were getting closer, I got to get away. *SNAP* "DAMN!" I cursed to myself. "She is breaking through." I see a wall in my immediate vision. Stopping abruptly, I let my breathing get back to normal. My pursuers stopped right behind me, making my chance of escape to near impossible.

"Luce." He whispered her name.

Slowly turning around with a sneer on my face, the time has come. They will all die tonight. Shifting my stance, I began to chant my most powerful spell. My body moved swiftly, almost as if I was dancing. As I completed the first part, I began to chant my finale to my attack.

"Come forth my darkness. Steal the light you seek. Feast on their flesh and blood. Take their life souls and make you known to our enemies and obliterate them to darkness…"

Before I could move to the final position, my body felt frozen. I could not move. Out of the darkness stepped out Makarov Dreyar and Gildarts. Hissing in anger I tried to move. Slowly I began to move again. Gildarts flashed to my side and struck a powerful blow towards my abdomen. The darkness around me faded and I sunk into unwelcomed sleep.

[FAIRY TAIL EVERYONE'S POV]

Everyone was grumbling about being woken up in the middle of the night.

"Oi! Master! What's the point of waking us up so early?" Gray shouted. Everyone muttered in agreement to his question.

"We found her." he said.

Everyone gasped. All eyes zeroed on a person in the middle of the room. No one noticed her before, when they all had gathered. Lucy Heartfilia was finally home.

Natsu stood in front of her protectively. He suddenly turned around to face her with a fierce expression. He knew she was about to wake up.

As everyone watched on, Lucy opened her eyes. She blinked slowly taking in her surroundings. As everyone smiled as she woke. The eyes that looked back soon filled with anger, hatred, and evil intent. Her eyes were not the one everyone remembered. Her warm brown eyes were replaced with cold red ones. She struggled against her magical bonds but could not break them. Lucy suddenly howled in anger. *CRRR-ACCK!* The bonds were broken. Everyone jumped into action and tried to subdue her.

Lucy threw her magic everywhere. Hitting everyone and everything, she panted from the exertion. She felt arms wrap around here binding her to the body that was holding her. Realizing who it was she flipped him over and stepped on his throat while holding his arm in place.

"NATSU DRAGNEEL! YOU WILL DIE TONIGHT!" she roared at him. "I tire of her screaming your name in my head. Once you are gone she will sink to oblivion knowing that you can't save her anymore. This body will be all mine!" she hissed in his ear.

Natsu struggle against her grip, "Lucy, please! Listen to me." He gasped.

Everyone around could not move. The magic pressure she was emitting forced them to stay in place.

"Lucy? I am not Lucy. My name is Rein!" she growled. She then proceeded to step harder on his throat crushing it slowly.

Suddenly a sudden force knocked her off of Natsu. Rein flew into the wall. She flipped before she crashed into it and used the wall to launch herself back at Natsu. Natsu stared at her with grief and sadness. *SSSTT* Rein's fist stopped a few inches from Natsu. He looked up to see her eyes changing from red to her warm brown.

Gasping, "Natsu." She whispered and collapsed into his arms. She struggled to sit up and face him. Her body began to twitch with the fight for dominance with Rein. "N-N-Natsu, I'm right here. Look at me."

He crushed her to his body. Everyone smiled in relief that they were seeing Lucy and not Rein. They rushed forward trying to get their hands on her. Natsu would not let go of Lucy.

"Lucy. My Luce. I'm so sorry. I looked for you everywhere." He whispered in her ear.

"I know. Hades told me. He has never broken my hopes for you to find me. Now here we are. You found me, again." She gave him a watery smile. Tears were falling from her warm brown eyes.

Everyone was looking on at their exchange and tears fell from their eyes.

"LUCY!" Levy screamed and launched herself at her best friend.

Not once did Natsu break his hold from Lucy, fearing that he would lose her again if he did. That night Fairy Tail party harder than ever before, but Makarov stared on knowing this Rein character would make her appearance again before the night was over.

[LUCY AND NATSU'S POV]

The guild left them alone in their secluded corner of the guild. Natsu could not stop staring at her not believing she was back. She smiled shyly at him and slowly leaned towards him and kissed him. His lips curved into a smile against her kiss.

"I love you, Luce." Natsu whispered as he gently broke of their kiss. He held her face in his hands. His eyes glowed with love he had for her. This one year had taken a toll on him. Being apart from her tore him inside out, but he managed to cope with it. Knowing full well that he will find her again, and that day had come.

Lucy giggled and whispered, "I love you too, Natsu." She leaned in and kissed him again.

Lucy suddenly gasped out and hiss in pain. She ripped herself from Natsu's grasp and fell to the ground. In a flash Natsu was next to her trying to get her to sit up. Lucy pushed him away. Everyone looked up in alarm. Her body began to convulse.

[LUCY'S POV]

"FOOLISH GIRL!" Rein screamed at Lucy.

"Stop it!" I screamed. My back arches and contorted with unimaginable pain. My mind and body continued to fight the presence that tried to dominate my mind and soul.

"YOU CAN'T!" I continued to scream at Rein.

She laughed evilly. "Don't say that Lucy, my dear. You can't refuse me. I am a part of you." Everyone looked in shock. Hearing everything Rein was saying. Master stared at me. My eyes were changing color again.

*AHHAHAHAHAHA* "YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING TO STOP ME!" Rein screamed in a fit of insane laughter. "Hades is coming. He will destroy you all."

"Lucy you must fight her." Master whispered to me. "You are stronger than her. You can do it."

I looked at him with pain radiating off my very being. I began to cry, pleading for Rein to stop it. Natsu reach out to me. Rein sense it and lashed out at him.

"Natsu…help…" my eyes fully changed back to the nightmare I hated and desperately tried to claw my way out of.

[REIN'S POV]

Finally, I had complete control for the time being. Lucy Heartfilia you have fought me, but not enough to suppress me. My vision started to blur in front of me. What is going on?

*FLASHBACK*

I ran and ran. Trying to reach my home, they were in danger. I got to get back. The more I ran the more it seemed impossible to reach them in time. Damn you! HADES!

Wait what?! Hades?! Why is he in my memories? I do not recall this at all.

I reached my destination. I look at the stranger in my home. Horror filled my eyes, realizing what had happened. The man turned and looked at me. Hades, it looked like him. He sneered at me. It was his father.

"What do you want with me?"

"Your power." He said simply.

"I must take everything you love dearly. So I took your entire family."

Roaring in anger I attacked Hades. To my demise I failed at that. I could not protect anyone and for I could not even protect myself. I felt my body evaporate as I was sucked into a strange device. My last glimpse was a man with blonde hair and the overwhelming lust for power shone through his eyes. I see him attack Hades and he was obliterated into pieces…

*END OF FLASHBACK*

Roaring in anger, I hear a distant shot of magic propelling itself towards Fairy Tail guild. Springing into action I flew towards the door and roared out his name with malice lacing every single syllable of his name.

"HADES!" my magic burst forth and surrounded me and I deflected the magical missile that was aimed towards Fairy Tail. A collective shocked gasps ran through the guild. I surged forward and began my assault on Hades, the man who I gave everything to and he gave nothing in return.

[NARRATOR' S POV]

The mages of Fairy Tail were shocked and astounded that Rein, the killer with cold red eyes, would protect what she seek out to destroy. For once in Rein's dark past she asked for the girl she tried to oppress to help her.

"Lucy, please help me."

The girl inside looked up in shock at the woman's plea. She hesitated.

"Lucy, please, this man took everything away from me. I know I did the same for you. But please, I beg of you. Give me this one favor and I will leave forever. The love and sincerity I felt coming from the people in your guild and from you has help me see what is right. So please help me."

Lucy stared at Rein and nodded. Slowly the two individuals merged as one. Rein and Lucy fighting a common enemy, they both turned to face the guild, one eye red and the other warm brown. Ferocity shown through and Lucy called out.

"MINNA! Please help me and Rein! We must defeat Hades once and for all!" she raised her arm and pointed her fingers in the shape of Fairy Tail's most treasured symbol.

Everyone raised their arm and roared together in unison. Tonight they will take down Hades and gain back the peace of Magnolia. Finally, Lucy can return home again, just her and only her.

Magic was flying everywhere. Surely but slowly Hades was being defeated. After what seemed like hours, everyone began to lose their magic powers due to exhaustion. Lucy and Rein unbelievably was the last few standing.

"Lucy, I'm going to do it now."

"NO! You can't! You will die!"

"Lucy, I am so sorry for what I put you through. Please forgive me."

"I already forgave you, when you asked me to fight alongside you."

"I'm ready, Lucy Heartfilia. Thank you for saving me. You let me see the light again. It is my time to go." Rein gave Lucy a sad but happy smile.

Rein raised her arm and dropped to her knees. Mentally she pushed Lucy back and blocked her from getting back out.

"NOOOOO! REEEEEIIINNN!" Lucy pounded against the barrier that was blocking her. She desperately tried to stop Rein. To no avail she could not. Rein has made her choice. As much pain Rein has put her through. Lucy knew she was good and turning evil was a choice she had to make. Lucy cared about Rein and did not want to lose her as much as she did not want to lose her nakama.

Rein was kneeling on the ground and concentrating all of her power she possessed. She gathered it all in one tight black magical ball. The more compressed it became the more power it seem to radiate off. She opened her eyes and found her target. Raising her arms as an aimer she gathers the magical ball at her side and dashed towards Hades. She then through the ball with all the power she could muster. Before Hades could react the ball made contact and decimated Hades.

Lucy screamed in horror as she felt Rein ripped from her body. She look towards a figure standing in front of her. She smiled at Lucy. The girl was beautiful. Her hair was a beautiful green that shined in the moonlight and her eyes were a beautiful violet color. Rein extended her hand to Lucy. Lucy grabbed and pulled herself up with Rein's help.

"Lucy, thank you. You remind me so much of my daughter. Thank you for freeing my heart and soul. I hope we meet again."

Rein started to disappear in a shimmering light and the tears of happiness and smile was all Lucy remembered before she blacked out.

Rein.

[AFTERMATH NATSU'S POV]

After the dust settled around, the damaged done to the guild and the surrounding areas was not as bad as everyone thought. Some were injured but not severely.

I ran towards a body lying in the ruble. Lucy. He gathered her into his arms. Brushing back her hair sighing in relief that she was alive and breathing, I gently called out her name.

"Lucy, my love." He whispered.

Lucy groaned and slowly opened her eyes. She tried to take in her surroundings and tried to find the source of the voice. But before she could she fainted once again.

I looked at her in alarm. "Wendy! Come quick!"

The young sky dragon slayer rushed towards me.

"Natsu-san, what's wrong?"

"Lucy, she fainted again."

"It's just probably from exerting herself too much. Here let my try to heal her."

Nodding, I gently put Lucy on the ground and hover over her as Wendy proceeded to heal Lucy.

"Natsu-san, she just needs rest that is all. There is no real damage done to her body.

Once again I sighed in relief and brought Lucy to the infirmary and sat by her side.

FEW DAYS LATER

After, the great battle with Hades and interrogation with the rune knights, everything seems to get back to normal as it could get. Lucy has not woken up yet. I continued to stay by her side and whisper to her about how the days went by. Talking about everything and nothing like we always did before.

I felt her shift besides me. Hearing her groans, her beautiful eyes fluttered open and she stared at me. Her eyes finally focused on me. She looked at me puzzled and slight frighten expression overshadow her face as she yank her hands out of my grasp. Shell shocked my face froze in confusion. I stammered out and yelled for Wendy. Everyone rushed in to see what was up.

[LUCY'S POV]

I opened my eyes to see a strange man holding my hands. He looked shocked and confused much like I felt. I yanked my hands out of his grasp and tried to scoot further away from him. He yelled for a girl name Wendy and about ten different people rushed in asking him what was up.

"Lucy." The pink haired man stammered quietly.

I looked at all the strangers in the room.

"Um…Who are you people?!"…
