I opened my eyes. To find myself in new surrondings, i noticed my wounds had now been healed. Well bandaged at least. I was still wearing a black dress, like before and a cape. I never found out why i changed clothes. But everyone was wearing black. It must have been when we were brough here.

"Sascha!" I turned to see Joey tied up. "You need to get out of here! Quickly!" He added. I had no idea where i was or what i was doing.

"Where are everyone?" I askd confused. I looked around the room. Izayoi was asleep next to me. Alex was tied up. Asleep. He looked in pain. The others were aroud us, me and Izayoi, in the middle. Tied up like the others.

"Izayoi." I whispered to try and wake him up.

He finally awoke after about 5 minuites of me repeating his name. "Where are we?" He asked, he seemed just as confused as me.

"Listen. This is it." I said trying to stay calm. "It's the end. We have to stop Zeleph. Together."

"You know about the prophacy i take it..." He sounded ashamed to talk about the prophacy, which i understand. I just nodded. I don't know if this meant i was choosing the world over my friends or not... "Is this it?" He asked.

"I have no idea..." I replied looking at the floor.

"We have to at least say goodbye to them..." I whispered, most of them had woken up by now.

"Why?! We'll see them again! Afterwards! Won't we?!" Izayoi said trying to be optamistic. I smiled at how calm he was staying.

The next thing i knew, me and Izayoi were standing infront of Zeleph. The others no where to be seen.

"Which prophacy will it be?" Zeleph questionned. I noticed Izayoi already sending an attack. Which hit the unaware Zeleph. I joined my friend, sending attacks, mixing nature and emotion. However nothing seemed to phasing Zelpeh. We were just tiring ourselves out. Zeleph didn't have a single scratch on him. Nothing. Where as, both me and Izayoi wer bleeding.

To begin with, i still had my injury from before, which made it hard for me to fight. "I'd stop if i were you..." Zelpeh said dodgying another one of my attacks. "Or you're little friend, Alex, might just get hurt..." With that i saw cassy with a Sword to his throat. "ALex!" I called out. Zeleph's laugh echoed through the room, sending shivers down my spine. He hit me with an attack, i wasn't ready for it. It hit me pushing me back and causing me to fall to the floor, in pain. I could feel my magic running out. I was tired and in pain. There was no doubt about that. I couldn't take much more. Izayoi didn't look too great either. I stood up, using the last of my forces. "No one threatens, or hurts my friends!" I said trying to stand up straight. I knew my magic wasn't going to stretch much more so i grabbed a sword and held in front of me. I took a deep breath ready to fight aginst Zeleph. Or that's what i tried to kid myself. I saw Zeleph come closer to me. Approching me, a grin on his face. Something black came towards me. Fast. The death mist that changed Natsu's scarf. I coughed. I felt my legs give in as i hit the floor. The last thing i remember was my name being shouted.

IZAYOI's POV

"Sascha!" I shouted as i watched Zeleph laugh at sascha lying on the floor. I was too late, she laied there on the floor. Lifeless. I stood up, and focused hard. I needed to defeat him, no more than anything, before i loose Alex too. I had to figure out a way to copy Zeleph's magic, And quickly.

I managed to do it, i copied the death mist and doubled the power. I grabbed the sword that Sascha used and headed for him.

The legends said that 2 mages could beat Zeleph. 2 . SO why is Sascha lying on the floor, seriosuly injured if not ...

I couldn't think like this. I needed to focus. Alex, shot an attack at Zeleph while he was down, and i repeated the death mist with all the power that i had left. He lay there, worse off than Sascha.

"Cassedy, let go of Alew!" I said sternly.

She laughed. "You're kidding me right?" she said, one of her eyes began to glow red. Like Zeleph's. "Alex dies here and now!" she said sadistically.

"No!" I said pushing the sword away from his neck.

Alex rushed over to sascha as i faced Cassedy. I held the sword tightly in both my hands. She looked perfectly on form. I hand no chance. Just as i was about to give up, i heard a voice in my head. Warran?

'Don't give up Izayoi. We all believe in you. Grey, joey and break are trying to find where you guy's are.' I have to win this fight for so many reasons. For her. For them. For everything. For him.

I tightened the grip on the sword. We began fighting, each of us dodging each other. I ended up with a number of scratches and cuts. I wasn't quick enough to avoid her. Grey suddenly appeared behind me. freezing the floor. Followed by Break pulling his sword out. Joey appeared behind them, anger in his eyes. We fought against her. All 4 of us. I wouldn't have been able to do anything wthout them.

NORMAL POV

2 WEEKS LATER

IN THE GUILD

"How are you feeling?" Mirajane asked Izayoi.

"I'm a lot better thanks..." He smiled faintly. The guild became quiet as Alex walked down the stairs.

"How is she?" Mira asked.

"No news." Alex wasn't too great himself. But then neither was Izayoi, he made out he was fine, but next to Sascha, he was the worst injured. But neither of the 2 boys cared too much about their problems, there worry was with their unconcious friend.

"She'll be fine!" Lucy said smiling. She had to optamistic, otherwise, everyone would be all depressed.

Sascha had been unconcious since the attack from Zeleph. She showed hardly any signs of getting better or getting worse. Just the odd breath now and then.

SASCHA'S POV

I opened my eyes slowly, to find my self lying in a bed, covered in bandages. My eyes opened more. I noticed break asleep in the chair next to the bed. "Break" I whispered. His eyes opend almost immediatly.

"Sascha!" He said cheerfully and with relief. He jumped up and hugged me carefully.

"I though we'd lost you..." I noticed a tear in his eye.

"You can't get rid of me that easilly!" I joked.

HE sat back down in the chair.

"How's Izayoi?"

"Better..."

"And the others?"

"They're okay, just worried about you. I think you're the worst injured. I'll go get them. Tell everyone you're okay!"

"Thank you." He got up and kissed my cheek.

"Just one question..."

"Yh..?"

"What is Alex to you?"

"..." Then he left.

He quickly reappeard followed by Alex, Izayoi and Joey.

"Sascha!" Alex said happily as he cam over and sat on the edge of the bed.

"Are you okay?" Izayoi asked, sitting next to Alex.

"I'm fine. You're ok aren't you?" I replied. He nodded, then Joey hugged me. "Glad you're okay baby sis!"

Then they all left me alone with Izayoi.

"Thanks." I said.

"What for?"

"That night, she was gonna kill me, but you stopped her. And with Zeleph, you saved me agin..." "..." "thank you"

"no problems, i'm just glad you're okay!"

"What happened to Zeleph?"

"Dunno."

"Cassy?"

"No idea."

He left,leaving me alone. I didn't like bein alone. The memeories from that night kept replaying in my head.

ALEX's POV

I walked up the stairs, and opened the door, to see if Sash was okay. I saw her, tears falling down her cheek. "Hey? What's the matter?" I asked walking up to her. I wiped the tears off her face. "I can't stand being alone..." She muttered. I took her in my arms. "It replays in my head." I held her tighter.

"don't worry." i said. I kissed the top of her head as she pulled away from the hug.

She got out of the bed, putting shoes on. She still had the cape on, blood stained it.

"What are you doing?" I questionned.

"I need a walk..." I nodded and tok her cape off, passing her a clean coat. I grabbed mine and took hold of her hand.

"I'll come too." I told her, a small smile came on her face. We left the guild and walked to the park. It had just begun snowing.

"Aren't you cold?" I asked her. She shook her head as her grip on my hand got tighter. I looked at her, as she walked, snokeflakes falling in her ginger hair.

We got to the park. "We should get back..." she muttered. I nodded but stopped her before she could turn around.

"Listen, sascha, don't worry about anything. We'll pretect you okay. I'll never leave your side, if you don't want to be alone. I'll do anything to keep you happy." I kissed her cheek and then her lips quickly. "Thank you" she whispered.
