A/N: Hey everyone! Just a couple more chapters! Maybe 3 or 4ish? I hope you're enjoying the story so far! Please read, and review!

"So, you're the almighty Laxus Dreyar, aren't you?" A devious poison mage taunted.

"And, you must be that freak that fought Gray!"

"You have that right. That ice mage wasn't too bad of a fighter. Let's see if your level matches his. Injection: Lilia's song!" A purple mist form in musical shapes, as a hypnotizing melody played in the grandson's head.

Big brother always saved me~

From pain and sorrow~

My tears may have blinded me~

But he helped me see~

Big brother, he knew~

He knew the darkness of life~

How life was just there to cause sadness~

So that day he let me die~~

"Augh!" Laxus smacked his hands against his ears, despite the fact that covering your ears didn't matter in this case. "D-dammit! Raging Bolt!" A large strike of lightning descended to ground, hitting the other.

"D-damn…. You!" Liam uttered while getting back on his feet, wiping the blood off his chin. "Injection: Lilia's magic!" Needles, about fifty of them form a circle surrounding the Fairy Tail mage. Sweat streamed down Laxus' face as he anticipated what would happen. Trying to avoid the attack was difficult, for some reason, his movement was restricted.

Swoosh, swift, swipe. One by one, the needles headed for the blonde, digging into his skin.

Laxus roared from the pain, collapsing to his knees. "H-how are you able…." He cut himself off, trying to reserve energy.

"Lilia, in case you didn't know, is my little sister. About three years ago, I killed her."

Laxus' eye widened.

"You're probably wondering why. She was my sister, I loved her. She was more like a daughter to me. I watched over her, helped her, saved her. You see, our mother died giving birth to Lilia, and our father murdered himself due to grief. My sister was always crying, she hardly ever smiled. She was always getting picked on for wearing the same clothes and for being skinny enough to see her rib cage. I was just a kid myself, there was no way I could afford food or clothes, and she had to suffer because of me. I killed her, to save her. Life is just another word for suffering. No way in hell am I going to put my sister through something like that… So I slipped something poisonous into her water, and she died about 10 minutes later."

"W-why are you…. Telling me this?"

"Why? Because…" The male halted for a second. "Because you Fairy Tail mages don't understand what it means to kill! To kill someone, is to save them from suffering from living in hell, to save them!"

Wobbling to his feet, Laxus slowly stumbled towards his enemy.

"You Fairies are always destroying everything, but you never fuckin' kill anyone!"

Laxus inched closer and closer.

"You all have the power to murder, but you never do!"

The blonde curled his right hand into a fist, and slammed it into the stomach of Liam. "You damned idiot. Have you ever considered that maybe YOU don't know what it means to live? Of course you're going to suffer a bit, but life is a gift. You only get it once and you can't redo a single thing. Sure, maybe death is better than living to some extent, but what can you do when you're dead? Nothing."

"You're sick in the head if you think living is better."

"I'm sick of arguing. Thunder Bullets!" A sphere of electricity emanated from his palms. Tiny bolts of lightning sputter out in all directions making it hard for Liam to avoid.

In Aerona Serpent's ship.

"Hm, It seems Liam's outlook on killing was different from the rest of ours, his loyalty is lingering. Kill him." A woman in blue robes ordered.

"Y-yes, Seraph-sama!" One of the few members left of Aerona Serpent erased the mark on Liam's arm, and sent a sword after him.

Back to the battlefield.

"Kah!" A certain male coughed up blood, while his shirt turned deep shades of red due to a fatal wound.

"WHAT THE HELL? LIAM! LIAM!" Despite being enemies, Laxus ran towards the other, catching him before he fell. "What the hell, just happened?"

"It…Kah. It looks like S-seraph-sama had no further use for me." The white-haired male began to close his eyes. His life force slowly and subtly faded away.

"AUGH!" Laxus screamed, letting his tears flow. He hadn't know the man for too long, but still. Liam was lost, and his outlook on life was wrong, Liam had so much to learn, and now… Now he can't.

In some unknown, pure white place.

"B…Big brother?!" A little smiled, instantly having happy tears fall down her small face.

"Lilia!"

The two ran to each other, hugging tightly. Liam looked up for a moment and noticed two others. "M-mother…. Father?!" He couldn't have possibly smiled any wider.
