Hey everyone! I'm so sorry that this is such a sort chapter! I suffered a very bad case of writers block. I am so sorry if this is not the best chapter in the series. I know the story itself is not the best and I want to thank the people who take the time and read this.

The people of the town were in a panic. Many screaming out for their loved ones and others warning everyone one of the disaster that had occurred.

Laxus pushed passed through the thick crowd, hoping that he could make it to the guild as soon as possible. Yet somehow, throughout all the chaos, he was able to make out one single statement.

"Fairy Tail has been attacked!"

Panic and fear made him run as fast as his legs could carry him. People screamed out at him for being rude, but he could have cared less. All he wanted at that moment was to see the guild and make sure that Freed was okay. To hell with everyone he pushed to the floor. He needed to get to him Captain.

Dark clouds began to form over the city and a feeling of dark magic washed over him. His skin broke out with goosebumps and shivers ran down his spine. Behind the sudden feeling Laxus was able to make out just one familiar thing out of it. Freed's rune magic.

Whatever was going on, Freed had something to do with it.

Laxus finally made it to the Guild and the sight that awaited him was horrifying.

The two big oak doors to the guild hall had been ripped off their hinges, small fires were eating away at the building. People were running from one place to another, all screaming for things that they needed. Some asked for water, others begged for help.

Desperation made Laxus run inside of the guild to see that the hall was in a great state of destruction. Tables had been destroyed and pieces of woods littered the floor. Fairy Tail mages were struggling to get back on their feet. Looking around, Laxus noticed his Grandfather under one of the broken pillars.

Gajeel, Levy, Elfman, and Pantherlily (in his larger form) were trying their hardest to get him out from under it.

Running to their side he was able to add the last amount of strength needed to lift the pillar.

Wasting no time he began to demand an explanation. "What the hell happen here? Where's Freed?" He asked.

Levy who was looking over the Master turned her head and with big frightful eyes said. "Freed's the one who did this! He lost control Laxus. He came out of the infirmary and attacked all of us. We tried to stop him but nothing work. He's too powerful." Chocking back on sobs strong arms wrapped around her and Gajeel pulled her against his chest.

"I'm not sure what happen to the guy, but you need to make sure that he gets through this." The Iron Dragon said.

But Laxus was helpless to do anything, he didn't know what to do to try and help the Rune Mage. Then suddenly a light turned on in his head. If there was anyone who would know how to control Freed, it was his sister.

Looking down at his grandfather who was holding his sides in pain, he crouch down and looked him over, a look of worry on his scarred face.

Makarov gave him a small smile and said. "Don't worry my boy, I have had far worse done to me." The statement didn't put Laxus at ease, but a part of mind was calmed knowing that the old man was going to be fine.

"Gramps, where is Anastasia?" He asked.

At the sound of the woman's name, the guild master's eyes widen with sudden realization. Soon after a shadow of fear crossed his face.

"She was in the infirmary when this all started." He said.

Dread made Laxus' blood run cold. He was able to put two and two together and whispered. "She was there when Freed lost control." Fearing the worse had happen to Ana, he shot up and ran through the guild hall. "Anastasia!" He screamed.

Reaching the door, he threw it open and hurried inside. Looking around it had seemed that nothing had happen. Until he caught sight of a pool of blood on the floor. Eyes widening in shock he looked around franticly. Then with his acute hearing he was able to make out a small whimper that sounded a lot like his name.

"L- Laxus?" He heard again.

Without a moment of hesitation, he saw that the farthest wall had been destroyed, right beneath the rumble was a head of familiar green hair.

Anastasia sat there with her arm thrown over her stomach, her clothing a starling red. Looking up she saw the large blonde and a broken smile formed on her bloodied lips. Half of her face was a ugly red while the other was covered in sweat.

The smell of copper hit Laxus hard and he had to fight the urge to gag.

Rushing to her side he fell to his knees and took in her injuries, there was only one and it was a large gapping whole in her stomach. How she was still alive was beyond him, but he was going to try his hardest to make sure that she made out alive.

Taking off his coat he gently moved her hand and placed it over the wound. That seem to snap her back into reality and she gasped in pain. Pressing the coat harder against her abdomen he hoped to stop the bleeding.

"Wendy!" He screamed.

Hoping that the little sky maiden survived the attack he waited for her to heal Ana.

Blinking away tears that had gathered in her eyes Anastasia let her head fall back. "Laxus... When this is all over make sure that Freed knows that this wasn't his fault. He couldn't control it." She said in a soft voice. "Make sure that he knows that I would never hold this against him."

Her eyes were wide and she pleaded with the other man.

She knew that she didn't have a lot of time before she died, but at least she wanted to say the last words on her mind.

"Find my family and tell them that I love them and that I'm so proud of my children. Tell Will that I love him with all my heart and that he needs to be strong for the children." She choked out. Feeling the claws of death beginning to rip her soul from her body she panicked. Reaching out blindly she clutched to Laxus' large arm. The tears that she had tried to blink away came back and slid down her face.

"Please you have to do that for me!" She begged.

Laxus stared at her with disbelief, she was dying right before his eyes and he could do nothing to stop it.

"Wendy!" He called out one last time. His voice louder than before and laced with desperation.

Seeing Ana's eyes start to flutter close, with his free hand he reached out and gently slapped her cheek. "Hey don't close your eyes, you promised your brats that you would make it back home. Don't break that promise! I know what it feels like to lose a mother and you don't want your kids to go through that!" He was begging at this point. He moved closer and cradled her face with his hand. Tears fell from her dark blue eyes and began to wet his fingertips

"Stay awake!" He ordered.

The door behind him flew open, however his name being called out didn't register in his mind, all he could see was the color drain from Anastasia's face and feel her body heat starting to drain from her body.

"Ms. Anastasia!"

Turning his head sharply to the side of the voice, he could have cried with relief.

"Wendy! You have to save her!" He said.

The Sky Dragon's eyes landed on the woman leaning against the wall and she gasped in shock. Running through the room she fell to her knees and immediately a warm white light formed around her hands.

Laxus moving his coat from Anastasia's stomach watched as Wendy's magic began to surround Ana's body.

A feeling of relief flooded through his chest and from there on out he was certain that Freed wasn't going to lose his sister and his niece and nephew were going to see their mother soon.

There was only one last thing he needed to do to make sure that everything would be fine come morning.

Getting up he felt the hand wrapped around his arm tighten, nails digging into his skin. Looking down in confusion he saw Anastasia hold on to him, looking up at him with wide eyes.

"You have to bring back Freed. No matter what happens bring him back home." She pleaded. Tears formed in the corner of her eyes but they did not fall. She was tired of all the crying she had done and now all she wanted to do was fall asleep.

Laxus' face soften and he moved to hold her hand. Prying her fingers off his arm he smiled at her and softly placed her hand back down.

"I'm going to bring him back I promise." He stated.

Once again, he stood up and looked down at Wendy. "Take care of her, I'm going to look for Freed." Turning around he ran out the door.

Bursting into the guild hall he pushed passed the ruble.

"He ran off into the woods! Hurry, a group went off to follow him, but we don't know what happen to them!" Lisanna screamed after him.

Taking her words into consideration he ran as fast as his feet could carry him.

Taking a deep breath of the air around him, he was able to catch a familiar scent. Following it through the town he made it to the tree line. Suddenly the earth began to shake and a wave of magical energy hit him hard.

It was Freed!

Looking up over the tree line her saw a dark purple light shine in the air and soon one of red collided with it. Bouncing off one of another, Laxus was certain what those two lights meant.

Pushing through the thick forest the closer he got to the familiar scent the larger the ball of fear grew in his gut. A small voice screamed in his mind.

What if it's too late to save him? What if Freed doesn't make it?

"If he can't fight this them someone if going to have to kill him…"

When the sudden memory assaulted his mind he tripped over a broken branch. There was a chance that he could lose his best friend, the love of his life.

Pushing himself back up, he ran past trees and large bushed, thorns and branches hitting him everywhere on his body. Cuts and scratches burning on his skin. Yet somehow the pain that he was going through was pushed away and a primal urge took over. The need to save his mate was something that he could not ignore.

"FREED!" He roared.
