Hi everyone one. Here's the next chapter! I hope you enjoy.


"So master, what is the plan once we get to Raven Tail?" Erza asked. Freed, Bickslow, Evergreen, Mirajane, Cana, Lucy, Natsu, Gajeel, Wendy, the master, and herself were all on the train to the city Raven Tail was located in. Although Natsu, Wendy, and Gajeel were laying on the seats puking and groaning, everyone else had to think of a way to get them back without a war. They got off the train sometime later.

They were walking through the city there train got off on. Natsu, Gajeel, and Wendy were being carried by Erza, Bickslow, and Freed since their motion sickness was still affecting them. Master has had a constant frown on his face ever since they found out Raven Tail was behind two of his children being kidnapped.

"Master, how much farther until we get to Raven Tail?" Wendy asked, being the first of the dragon slayers to recover.

"After we exit the city, only a couple of miles," Makarov responded. Wendy nodded. She looked around and noticed everyone had a serious look in their eyes. It wasn't the usually smiling faces, the faces that showed they didn't have a worry in the world. She missed those faces. She missed Gray too. Gray was always the one to make her feel better. He was a big brother to her. He always had his smug smirk on his face and would make her laugh or smile in even the worst situations. She missed him a lot. She doesn't know Laxus that much but can tell him being missing is affecting people. Freed, Bickslow, and Evergreen haven't smiled once since they found out he had gone missing.

Master was also acting different since they found out Raven Tail was behind this. She didn't know much about Raven Tail but knew if Master was worried about that guild, she should be worried. They exited the city and we're now starting their long journey to Raven Tail.


Right now, Laxus is calm and collected on the outside. While on the inside is freaking out. Gray hasn't woken up since later that evening when the frightful incident happened. The worst part is he still has the blade in his eye. But overall, he just wants Gray to wake up.

"Has your little friend not woken up yet," Ivan asks, the fake worried expression on his face.

"Shut up," Laxus growls. Ivan smiles.

"Well it's time for you to I back to your cell," Two men come walking in. One grabs Laxus and the other unlocks Gray and grabs him. They walk down the gloomy halls to their cell. When they get there, the man holding Laxus pushes him into the cell. The man holding Gray throws Gray in. Gray lands with a hiss and grabs his ribs. Ivan shuts the door and himself and the men leave. Laxus crawls over to Gray and starts shaking him lightly.

"Gray, c'mon wake up," Laxus whispers. Gray groans and opens his eye tiredly.

"Laxus," He says just above a whisper.

"Hey, are you okay," Laxus asks. Gray gets a blank look on his face.

"Oh yeah, I'm perfectly fine." He says sarcastically.

"I'm just trying to be nice dummy," Laxus growled.

"God, I hate this place so much, you have no idea," Gray groans out. He turns so he's on his back laying down. He was so tired and the pain from his eye become numb so he couldn't even feel the skin surrounding his eye. His ribs hurt like hell and whenever he drew in a breath he could feel one of his ribs shaking.

"Yeah I do to, I hope the others know we are at Raven Tail by now," Laxus said.

"Are you sure they even know we are missing by now?" Gray asked. He was beginning to loose hope that the others would find them.

"Of course they are! Why wouldn't they be?" Laxus said. Gray's attitude was starting to piss him off. Gray shrugged. Then flinched from the pain of his shoulder.

"I was just thinking that maybe we should try to figure a way to get out of here by ourselves. I mean, I don't know how longer I can deal with this. And you aren't looking so good yourself. So we should probably find a way out," Gray explained.

Laxus thought about. Gray had a good point, neither would be able to keep this up. But how would they get out of here? The first things they have to do is get the handcuffs off their hands, but they will need a key to do that. Then they would have to stay hidden from the guards while opening the door. He was about to ask Gray when Gray started talking again.

"We could use the dagger that's in my eye to get the cuffs off," Gray started, he looked at Laxus's horrified expression.

"Can you even get that thing out of your eye? It would probably hurt a lot," Laxus told Gray. Gray just shrugged.

"I would be fine. After that we could break out of the cell, open the door and run into the shadows. We could escape from a window. Then run somewhere safely," Gray said. Laxus thought over the plan. It would be risky, but who cares.

"Yeah, let's do that," Laxus said. "But, the first thing we need is for you to get that out of your eye," Laxus said, gesturing to the dagger in Gray's eye.

"Yeah, that might be a hard part," Gray grumbled. He took a deep breath. "Are you ready, or should we wait a little longer," He asked.

"Whenever you're ready. But in my opinion we should go now," Laxus said.

"Okay," Gray breathed. He grabbed the hilt of the blade. Closed his other eye, and ripped the blade out.


The group has been walking for a couple of hours now. The sky had already turned dark and the moon was in the sky. Natsu, Gajeel, and Wendy were leading the way, hoping one of them would be able to pick up Gray or Laxus's scent. Freed, Bickslow, and Evergreen right behind them.

"Master, how much farther?" Cana asked. She was super worried for her two first friend in Fairy Tail. Gray was always her first and best friend. They became friends quickly. Then Gray tried talking with Laxus. At first Laxus just ignored him, then he became annoyed at how persistent the kid was, so he started talking to the kid but ended up becoming good friends with him. Then all three of them started hanging out together. Those days were fun.

"I'm not sure, probably only a c-" H was cut off by Natsu raising a hand in the air.

"I found their scent," Natsu said.

"Same," Gajeel and Wendy said.

"This way!" Natsu said. He then started running in the direction they were in. The rest of the group caught up with him. It was hard since they were in the middle of a forest and it was challenging with all the trees. They turned around a big rock and ran…

Right into someone else.


Laxus and Gray were running in the shadows of the dark guild at the moment. Laxus was leading the way while Gray held his throbbing eye. It hurt a lot to take the dagger out. But at least they had a chance of escaping now. They were lucky it was night too. The dark sky hid them well. Laxus found a window and opened it.

"C'mon," He whispered to Gray. Gray nodded. They both jumped into the night air. They landed on the ground and began to run into the woods. They had made it kind of far when they ran into someone else.

"Ow," Gray mumbled standing up again. With all his injuries, he was having trouble getting back up. He grabbed his eye and looked up. He saw a bunch of people and at first thought they were Raven Tail, but then noticed one of them had pink hair and he only knew one person with that hair.

"Natsu?"


The group heard a groan and 'ow' from the person they ran into. They couldn't see since it was dark, and right away thought it was the dark guild.

"Natsu?" They heard. They all recognized the voice. Natsu lit his hand on fire for some light to see who it was. When they saw Gray standing and holding his eye, and Laxus next to him trying to catch his breath, they let out a relieved breath.

"LAXUS!" Freed, Bickslow, and Evergreen yelled. They jumped on him and gave him a big hug.

"Gray!" Natsu yelled. He gave him a big bear hug.

"Be careful Natsu, he's wounded," Laxus said. Natsu let go and looked at him, so did everyone else. Their eyes widened at seeing him covered in wound, cuts, blood, and rags. His hand holding his eye had blood seeping through his fingers.

"What happened?" Mira asked.

"Long story, now can we please leave," Gray said.

"Yes, I want to get the hell out of here," Laxus said. They all turned at the sound of yelling.

"They must have found out we escaped," Gray said. Laxus nodded.

"Then we must leave. Let's go," Master said. Everyone nodded and took off the opposite way of the yelling.
