Sorry, I have not updated in a long time I have been very busy and my internet was down for a while. Now that summer has started I hope to be updating more. Sorry for the wait, I hope you like this chapter.

"master" three hours have gone by and Satoshi anger has only grown as his patients rapidly disappears. Now two of his guild members stood before him.

"please tell me one of you has good news." Satoshi said as he rubbed his temples, the two looked at each other but didn't say anything. "well."

"well umm, the wizards outside are really close now they have disabled most of the traps and alarms we set." One of the men said

"what!" the guild master shouted the two men were shaking now for fear of their master's wrath.

"t-there's m-more."

"salamander has no woken up yet." Satoshi took some deep breaths to calm down he was starting to get a headache.

"is there anything else?" he asked in a strained voice

"the o-other prisoners we have are not answering our questions either."

"is everyone in fairy tail this stubborn?" the dark guild master asked as he laid back in his chair and continued to rub his temples.

"you know master I doubt that fairy stubbornness would last long if you let me take over." A new voice said

" Wisteria, I need them alive." He said as the woman walked in. "out of curiosity what do you plan to do to break the salamander."

"why don't you kill one of his friends right in front of him, show him your resolve." She purred.

"as pleasant as that sounds; I have studied the salamander too long, that I know if we do that he would become the ever monster that destroyed cities and mercifully killed thousands of people. No, I would rather see him weak where I can control him; because if that monster comes out…" he sighed

"but master he is so weak now he has no more power no more strength what he can do?" she asked

, "even in this state do not underestimate him Wisteria." He said in a sharp tone that made the beautiful mage back off out of surprise

"Yes, master. What would you like me to do about the wizards outside?"

"Ready the weapon and I would like personally to guard salamander, no one but me is to enter that room understood."

"Clearly." She smirked and left the room to carry out his order

"Where did I go wrong in this plan? Why do I feel so much dread?" he silently asked himself as he sat alone in his throne room.

Outside

"Hey, sting have you heard any more from Natsu?" Gray asked and the white dragon slayer sadly shook his head

"There hasn't been a sound for three hours," Rouge said as he looked worriedly at his friend. He knows what Natsu meant to him; Natsu was someone he wanted to be like, his hero and someone he strived to overcome. Natsu was someone how saved the hold Sabertooth guild without knowing it, they own him.

"do you think we are too late to save Natsu?" Lisanna asked

, "even if we are we still have seven other people to save." Jura said in a calm voice

"how could you say that!" Lucy shouted tears flowing down her face

"I don't wish Natsu to be dead but we should not wish for something that not be there anymore…Natsu would want us to do everything we can to save the others. so, we have to focus to rescue the others first and hopefully, there is still something of Natsu to save." Jura said in a low voice everyone around him had wide eyes they couldn't believe what they were hearing

"Jura's right." Erza said with a sad look on her face "as far as we know the others are still alive and they should be our priority"

"Erza not you too! It almost sounds like you have given up on Natsu, he is our friend we can't just turn our backs on him!" Lucy cried was she the only one that still believes Natsu was alive?

"we're not giving up on him but if he is still alive he is strong and he will hold out. As Jura said he would want us the safe the others first." She said chocking on her own words

"we keep saying he is strong and he can handle himself we always depend on Natsu to save us but who saves him?! He could be dying right now if he isn't already dead and here we are always saying he will be all right because he's Natsu!" Happy screamed tears in his eyes everyone started at happy in shock not believing what the little exceed was saying.

"H-happy…" Wendy said as she grabbed happily and pulled him close crying with him

"I-I c-can't take it anymore please bring him home." He cried as everyone looked down in shame that they thought everything was going to be alright. No, their world has been flip upside down, now nothing will be the same. Without Natsu, nothing will ever be the same.

"Don't worry Happy we will get him back and we will bring him home," Gray said with renewed determination. The group nodded and began working again this time with more verbosity and determination to bring everyone home.

"look I can see the base now!" Lyon said to the group they had made it. Yes, it took a while but they finally made it and now they were going to save their friend and go home.

"ok is everyone clear on the plan?" Jura asked everyone nodded their eyes burning with anger and the need to do anything it took to get their friends back.

"I am not clear on the plan do you mind explaining to me." Said a new voice from behind them. They quickly turned around to see five guys and one girl standing in front with a wicked smile on her face

"Who are you what have you done to Natsu and the others!" Erza demanded the women laughed. She had black hair and the ends were red, she had poisonous green eyes.

"You should not worry about the Salamander or your friends trapped inside what you should worry about is getting yourself out of here alive." The women said with the others behind her laughing. Erza summoned one of her swords and armor shouting she charged the women with the full force and ferocity of the fairy tail guild behind her. The battle had started and now you had the Sabertooth guild, lamia scale, blue Pegasus and the fairy tail guild fighting the dragon scale guild.

"Ice make hammer/dragon." Gray and Lyon shouted at the same time. The group of dark wizards disappeared and reappeared further away in the clearing with smiles on their faces.

"Don't tell that is all you got." One of the men shouted as all the light wizards fired one of their attacks at the group the grown shaking with the force of the combined spells. At this moment, the feel of the battle change. More dragon scale soldiers came out of nowhere it seems the battle would never end.

The battle was pushed into the clearing and seemed to be in the light guilds fever, but something seemed… off like it was all too easy.

"Now wizards you wish to know what has happened to you precious dragon slayer!" came a yell from the base walls when they looked up they saw a huge metal cannon in the shape of a dragon. "salamander was ever so gracious to give up his power and now you all DIE!" the man said as the cannon began to glow an orange-red color and the magic presser began to grow; all the dragon scale members disappeared and only then did the light wizards realize that this was a trap and all of them were in the center on the clearing.

"Crap there's no time to move!" Gray shouted and at that moment the cannon fired and the was a bright light and the ground shaking as the surrounding area was wiped out.

With Natsu and Wisteria

Wisteria walked down the interweaving hallways until she came to a large metal door. Walking inside she was meet with the sleeping form of none other than Natsu Dragneel.

"Hey wake up!" she said kicking the dragon slayer for good measure. Natsu groaned and slowly opened his eyes. "see I know you were still alive."

"what do you want," Natsu said in a horas voice.

"I just came to give you some news about your friends." At this Natsu, head snapped up and glared at the women in front of him. She smiled "they finally made it here and are currently locked in battle outside this base." Natsu huffed and looked away.

"where is your guild master? Or is he tired of torturing me he sent you to finish me off." He asked in a defiant voice.

"I don't think we could kill you even if we wanted too." She answered walking up to brush his hair away from his face only for him to jerk away and let out a low growl. "they're going to die you know." She said not at all fazed by Natsu's actions

"you don't know how strong they can be." she laughed and the building shook.

"no, I don't think you understand. We took you power and made it into a weapon that will be tested on your friends outside there is no hope for them." Natsu let out another growl she laughed again "wow master Satoshi was right you are more animal than man. He said you were a monster but I only see a wounded animal."

"your master is more of a monster then I am." Natsu said only to cough up some blood

"he really did a number on your body didn't he." She said as she pulled up a chair to sit down facing the chained dragon slayer. The building shook again this time more violently than the last; Natsu picked up his head his eyes wide because he could sense his magic and a lot of it.

"Well, it looks like the weapon test was a success and your friends are probably dead." She said smiling.

"no, it can't be WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!" Natsu yelled and coughed up more blood

"your friends are dead and your body is broken why don't you just tell my master what he wants to know and we will make you end swiftly." She said in a calm voice that just seemed to Natsu angrier.

"as I told your master I am not telling you guys anything!" Natsu whizzed he felt his eyes growing heavy again but he forced them to stay open as he glared at the person in front of him. He couldn't believe what she had to say about his friend right now he still believed they were alive and fighting; he had to believe because right now that was the only thing keeping himself sane.

"you know it was your fault that they are dead. If it wasn't for you they probably never come here to fight, or better yet if they never knew you existed they would have lived long happy lives."

"shut up," Natsu growled

"I am surprised they even came looking for you at all. I heard that you destroy a lot when out on jobs you cost your guild a lot of money. I wonder if your guild knew who or should I say what you really are if they would even let you stay in the guild or turn you into the magic council."

"I said shut up." Natsu was getting tired of this woman trying to play trick with his mind, but then he stopped what if it was true? Was the real reason he didn't tell the guild about his past because he was afraid they would kick him out of the guild or turn him into the magic council. Better yet would the fairy tail guild be better off without him? Probably, he did cause them a lot of trouble even now they came here to rescue him and now probably die for him… why?

"I see you are also starting to realize it." She smiled and walked closer to his chained form "without you or our secrets you friends would still be alive and so much happier, you are a burden." Natsu shook his head.

"A secret's worth depends on the people from whom it must be kept." Natsu begins to calm down from his father's words. That's right he kept his secrets to protect fairy tail and too keep it from bad people who would use the knowledge to gain power like Dragon scale.

"your wrong" Natsu said in a low voice. "your wrong about me and about fairy tail." He said again this time a little louder so she could hear. Wisteria glared at Natsu she reached out and grabbed Natsu's cheeks lifting his head up to look at her in the eyes, he struggled but was too weak to get out of her grip.

"listen hear dragon boy, there is no hope for you. One way or another you will tell my master what he wants to know because you now belong to dragon scale and soon that iron will of yours will crumble there will be nothing left for you to fight for, and the sooner you realize that the easer the rest of your life down here will be." She let go of him and his head fell back down to his chest. She looked at his form and frowned and took a knife from her coat and stabbed it into his shoulder he did not cry out in pain he just gave a loud hiss as fresh blood ran down his chest to the floor.

"If I had my way there would be nothing left of you to save. I can't kill you and my master has reserved the pleasure of torturing you but lets me tell you this I can be a lot scarier that dragon scales guild master when I am pissed off. She withdrew the blade from Natsu's shoulder and he let out a small gasp of pain. She smiles and licked the blood from her dagger. Natsu didn't say anything but silently glares at her.

"Oh, don't give me that look." She stabs him hi the other shoulder and this time twists the blade Natsu released a small cry. She pulled out the dagger again and sighs "what happened to all that screaming you were doing?"

"torture me all you want I am not telling you anything." Natsu was begging to lose conciseness again as his head lulled to one side.

"Oh, how much I want to have fun with you but for now that is all you get. Sleep tight dragon boy." She said as she punched him in the stomach knocking him out.

"well, that was boring." She said as she sat back in her chair.

With the master of dragon scale

"Master! Master!" Akio said as he ran into the throne room.

"I am assuming the tremor was the weapon," Satoshi asked

"Yes, the test was a success."

"And what of the wizards?"

"incinerated sir there is nothing left," Akio said smiling up at his master

"Good, good did the doctor get the readings he needed from that one blast?"

"Yes, however, the damage in the surrounding area was extreme."

"That is what I expected from the salamander's power." Satoshi said with a smile "tell the doctor if he has what he needs to start construction of the others." With that Akio bowed and ran out of the throne room.

"soon Salamander you give me what I want then the world will fall into my hands." The master of Dragon scale said laughing in the darkroom his earlier discomfort was long forgotten.

Well, I hope you like that chapter sorry I left it at a cliffhanger… not really. I am not really good at writing about battle scenes but I will try harder for later in the story.
