"Well, you have remembered what happened 2 years ago. What will you do now Lucy?" Zetsubo asked.
"You… You tricked me! My mother wasn't killed! What did you do to me! Who are you?" I shout at him.
"I am the dark mage Zeref, I'm surprised you haven't guessed that yourself. You know what I did to you. I turned you into a demon, from a royal angel. You are my masterpiece, no other demon is as strong as you or could come close to beating you. Now you can join my cause again, or die with Fairy Tail today, it's your choice," Zeref asked me. I sink to my knees in front of him, and go limp. There is no way to beat him, better to just surrender and live to fight another day.
"No! Lucy stand and fight with us! We have a chance of winning with you on our side! Lucy please, if you truly love me you will help us!" Gray shouted at me as Zeref started attacking Fairy Tail. I look at Gray, I want to help him so badly it hurts, but there's no way to defeat Zeref, he's too powerful. Zeref is much stronger than the demons I sent after Fairy Tail earlier, there was no way they would be able to win against him. The fight is going bad for Fairy Tail, Zeref's spells are too strong and they fall one after another. Suddenly Zeref sends a ball of dark magic towards Gray, and I react without thinking. I cast up a wall of fire, and grab Gray before the dark magic can hit him.
I made sure Gray was alright before standing up and facing Zeref. Maybe Gray's right, maybe we can win if we stand together, I don't know. What I do know is I'd rather die fighting with him, then watch him die before my eyes and always regret the choice I made. I charged toward Zeref throwing fireballs at him, while dodging all of his attacks. Although Zeref had very powerful spells, he's not accustomed to battle. He leaves himself wide open, and his reaction speed is slow. I duck under his guard and activate my soul eyes. I reach out my hand and grab his wrist.
I gasp, his soul is huge, and he has immense magic power. I barely registered Zeref screaming in my ears, I was frozen from all the power flowing into me. I have no idea how much time passed, but Zeref yanked his wrist away from my hand, and teleported away. I fall to the ground, unable to move.
"You may have won this battle Fairy Tail, but don't think for a second that you have won this war! I will be back stronger than ever, and I will destroy you, whether Lucy helps you or not!" Zeref's voice echoed at us as he teleported away.
"...Lucy what… what happened…?" Gray crawls over to me. I slowly regain movement in my limbs, and sit up. I turn towards Gray, my eyes filled with tears. I remembered everything that happened, and regret ever coming to Fairy tail.
"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! It's all my fault! All of this is my fault. I'm such an idiot for not listening to my parents," I sobbed in my hands.
"Lucy, no! It's not your fault, it's Zeref's. He was controlling you," Gray responded.
"No, he wasn't controlling me. Not really. I did all of this of my own free will because I thought that Fairy Tail had killed my mother," I answer, tears slowly stopping. I still felt immensely guilty for all the damage I caused, but now wasn't the time for crying.
"I-I used to be an angel, the daughter of Layla and Kurishu Heartfilia, rulers of the Angels. It was my 16th birthday when I came down to the human's land because I was bored when Zeref kidnapped me. I was distracted by an illusion spell that I thought was real. Then Zeref proceeded to turn me into a demon, and he erased my memories and gave me a new personality, one that hated Fairy Tail, and was cold and bitter, the opposite of my other self. He finished turning me into a demon about 5 months ago. I started remembering my old life about 2 months ago, but I thought that they were from a past life or something. I couldn't admit to myself that what I was doing was wrong, and my whole world was fake, so I continued on with the plan," I said quietly.
"So what are you now? The angel Lucy or the demon one?" Gray asked.
"Neither, and both. My personalities have merged and I remember everything from both. I think that I will act like both Lucy's because they are both still me. Zeref never reversed the spell, I just adapted to it," I reasoned.
"What are you going to do now Lucy?" Makarov asked me.
"Now I must get revenge and destroy Kiyoshi before it's too late," I whispered darkly, a fire of determination growing in my eyes.
"Wait, who's Kiyoshi and why do you have to destroy him?" Makarov asked.
"He is my older brother, and he helped Zeref capture me on my 16th birthday," I said bitterly as I made my way to the guild doors. I extinguished the fire around the guild hall, and spread my wings.
"Wait, help us rebuild the guild hall!" Makarov shouted at her.
"No, I must leave and inform my parents of Kiyoshi's betrayal before it's too late! Don't worry, I will be back," I shouted back at him, before flapping my wings and flying up into the air. I flew as fast as I could up to the Angel Kingdom and hoped that they wouldn't fight me.
Gray's POV
After Lucy left to deal with the Angel Kingdom, the guild started to clean up and tend for the wounded. The casualty count was so high! Many of the guild members were dead, and nearly all were wounded. Juvia, Wendy, Evergreen, Warren, Romeo and Laxus are confirmed dead, and we can't even find the ashes of Natsu. Erza, Mira, Laki, Levy, Lisanna, and Alzack are on the door to death. The exceeds took shelter up in the rafters and are all fine. Physically anyway, Carla and Happy won't speak to anyone and just stay in the corner, tears streaming down their faces. Pantherlily sticks close to Gajeel, who is by Levy's side. He refuses to leave her and help with the guild repairs. Anyone who can stand is helping treat the wounded and start to repair the guild hall. Most are still in shock about Lucy, and honestly I don't know what to think either.
The next couple days passed slowly, and I barely get any sleep. I was constantly woken by nightmares of Lucy killing everyone again. Mira, Levy and Alzack had starting to respond to the treatment while Erza and Laki stayed the same. Last night Lisanna took a turn for the worst, and Porlyusica didn't think she will live another day. We haven't heard a word from Lucy yet and I hope she's ok. The betrayal of her brother must of hit her hard, but she hadn't show it before she left. The guild hall looked a bit better, we cleared all the rubble away.
Third Person POV
Lucy flew back down to Fairy Tail, she knew they would be worried, especially Gray. She landed in front of the guild hall, and walked in. The first thing she noticed was all the rubble had been cleared away, and there was a row of infirmary beds in the back corner. When Gray saw her to immediately ran over to Lucy.
"What happened? Are you ok? Did they believe you? What's going to happen now?" he asked in a hurry.
The shock of what transpired at the Angel Kingdom finally hit and Lucy fell to her knees, tears streaming down her face.
"They're gone, he killed them," she cried, a wail rising up and out of her throat. Gray kneeled down and put his arms around her, rubbing her back and muttering comforting words in her ear.
"What happened Lucy?" Gray asked. Lucy looked up into Gray's eyes, and started telling her story.
