Hi, I understand that some of you guys want to know why Gray and Natsu hate Midnight. Well, I was planning to explain it soon. Also, I know the story has kinda gotten cheesy, even I would admit that, so in this chapter I am going to kick it up a knotch! Thank you for reviewing and telling me what you guys think! One more thing, in the chapter where they fought Gray and Natsu, someone asked why Lucy just didn't hurt them in the first place. She is a scaredy cat in this story, so she was hoping Midnight could deal with the problem

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN FAIRYTAIL! cannot make funny/crudy line to go with this... :(

Chapter 7:

And So Hell Begins

Gajeel still was carrying Lucy, who had now settled down and was only sobbing occasionally. "He didn't answer." Lucy moaned, feeling depressed.

"I understand, but for now we have to get to safety. Only God knows what is Master's fate." Gajeel reassured Lucy, but insteas made here worry even more.

"If Midnight is in God's hands, then he will more than likely perish..." Lucy began to feel the tears in her eyes once more.

"He might not be watching Midnight, but he is watching you." Gajeel put her down, knowing she could walk on her own. Lucy remained quiet the rest of the way, but would not stop worrying. They were headed to Juvia's apartment, in which Juvia has owned in case a situation like this would come up.

Back at the house, Midnight still leaned against the door, thinking Lucy would come back any minute. His mind was set on letting Lucy go, but his heart wanted her back. He wanted to run outside and apologize, and tell her he had made a big mistake. He knew that this was best for Lucy, and he was going to leave it at that.

A week passed, and Lucy and the other's all had found new jobs and were adapting to their new lifestyle. The only thing that Lucy couldn't get used to was Midnight not being around. One night at dinner, Lucy gained enough courage to ask the unspeakable question. "Why do Natsu and Gray hate Midnight so much?" Lucy poked at the carrots that were recently placed on her plate. Everyone stopped eating, and looked at each other. They all knew that Lucy would one day ask this question, but never suspected she would be so straight forward.

"Natsu loved Lady Eva." Gajeel finally said, taking a bite out of his chicken. "They were engaged by their parents, but Lady Eva had no desire to marry Natsu. That's when she met Master. Eva and my girlfriend Levy were bestfriends, but that ended when Midnight murdered Levy one fateful day. Eva was with Levy on the day Midnight kidnapped her. Midnight kidnapped Eva, too, thinking she might report him to the cops.

"Natsu was frustrated with the fact that he had not seen Eva in three weeks, so he sent out a search party for her, and that led him to Midnight. By the time Natsu found the two, though, Eva was infatuated with Midnight, as was he. It broke Natsu's heart, so he took Eva back. According to Master, when he went back to the FairyTail Mansion to retrieve Lady Eva, her eyes were no longer sea blue. They were blood shot red, just as though she was a new person. She had no memory whatsoever of Master or the fact that they had once loved each other. Master left the mansion, and he left his heart and soul." Gajeel finished, chewing on a piece of chicken meat.

"Where does Gray come in all of this?" Lucy asked, half confused about all of this.

"Lord Gray used to be my boyfriend," Juvia spoke up, bowing her head in shame. "I have no clue what has happened to that man. He use to be so kind, and yet..." Juvia stopped for a moment, but continued, "I broke up with him because all he would talk about was another woman name Erza. I suppose what angered him the most, though, was when I left him to go work with Master Midnight." Lucy was astonished. She couldn't believe the fact that Gray Fullbuster, the man who tried to choke her to death just a week ago, was actually kind.

Back at the Fairy Tail Mansion, Natsu and Gray were also eating dinner. "Hey, Gray, aren't you glad Erza's coming back this week?" Natsu waved his fork in the air, signaling his maid, Mira, to poor him some more wine.

"Not that much, but what I am more interested in is that Eva look alike who scurried away alive last week." Gray drank out of his glass, tasting the sweetness from the wine.

"Should we kidnap her, and give her the remedy?" Natsu asked giddily. He always enjoyed getting a new toy and killing it.

"Just wait. When the time is right, the little kitten will be pratically in the palm of our hands!" Gray laughed, and Natsu not long after joined in.

Midnight was in a alley, dodging bullets once again. His life resumes the way it was before Lucy came along. He used to love the danger's and the thrills, but now they all bored him. He technically yawned as he shot one man's eyeball out, and cut off another man's left hand and right foot. He knew Natsu and Gray would strike him soon, but for now Midnight had to stay hidden in the shadow's.

Lucy sat up in her bed, not being able to sleep. She tip toed as she crossed the room she shared with Lisanna, grabbed her coat, and snuck out the door.

Unknown to all of those beings, one angel stared upon all of them from the heaven's above. Makarov was deciding on the fate of this story, in place of God. It was all up to that one person...
