Aloha! I'm back again! ;D Today I present you the twelfth chappy. I think my story is getting too complicated that even I can't understand, but I'll work it out. I need your support, guys!

Thank you again for all the great reviews. :) You guys are part of the reason I'm still writing.

Also, I haven't updated during the weekend. It's because I went to the theater to watch The Hunger Games (duh). Seriously, that movie is so popular. I mean, when I went to school EVERYONE, I mean EVERYONE except one or two, had watched it. It's just that popular.

But this isn't about Hunger Games. This is about Fairy Tail, so here it is...


"The fairies will destroy you. They shall smolder your evil plans and find the book Opaque. Fairy Tail will be your defeat."

That was the last thing his mother had said before he killed her. A part of Lucifer was afraid she was right. She could foresee the future with deadly accuracy, after all.

But somehow, Lucifer couldn't accept the fact that she was dead. Just before he took her life, her body disappeared.

Ten years later, she came back and committed suicide right in front of his eyes.

Lucifer wanted to kill those Fairy Tail wizards and prove her wrong. Then, at last, he could accomplish the impossible and take over the world of magic.

It was a nice thought.

Somehow, after a long battle, Natsu found himself standing above Malikh, about to throw another punch.

"You want to know something, dragon slayer?" Malikh said, his lips stretched in a gruesome, unnatural smile.

"Fine." Natsu had already won- a few words couldn't hurt, right?

"Erza used to be from a dark guild. Her mother was her master. Lucifer's last guild."

In that moment that Natsu was in shock, Malikh raised his foot and kicked Natsu, knocking him out cold.

"Erza?"

"Yes, Gray?"

"Um, I'm just curious but...who was your mother?"

Erza's face tightened. Immediately Gray knew he had hit a sore spot.

"She...disappeared. I never knew her name" was all Erza said.

"Oh."

They fell into an uneasy, nervous silence. Around the bend, they saw someone ahead. A uniformed guard and young girl...

"That's the girl we caught," Gray whispered. "How did she- "

Erza put her finger to her lips, pointed at themselves, then pointed at the people in front. She wanted to follow them.

The girl and the guard rounded a bend, then both touched the ground, muttered something, and raised their sleeves. Both had the same mark- the OU insignia unalike the one on Gordon's blue disk, and a black sun. They pressed their lips to their marks. The ground melted a hole, and they slipped inside.

Gray and Erza followed before the hole closed up.

"Mira! Mirajane!"

Bisca shook her vigorously, until Mira coughed. "B-Bisca?"

"Are you alright, Mira?" Bisca asked.

"There's something about that girl..." Mirajane murmured. "Where did the book go?"

"Book? What book?"

"Levi's book. That book is evil...I could feel its dark aura."

Her eyes widened. "The girl took it! It must be." Tears fell from her cheeks. "Poor Levi..."

Alzack exited the magic shop nearby, carrying new magic guns. "Bisca? What's wrong?"

"I found Mira lying in an alleyway. We need to take her back."

Melody knelt. "Master Lucifer."

Lucifer reached forward and slapped her, hard. Melody bit back a cry.

"Don't go wandering off again." His eyes traveled to the book in her hand. "And what is that?"

"Opaque, sir. It seems so, at least."

"Give it to me." Lucifer sounded hungry for it. At the last second, Melody hesitated.

"Now!"

"Y-Yes, sir," she stammered. Lucifer practically grabbed it, satisfied.

"You may go, Melody." She and the guard obeyed.

Just before they went up the Stairs of Protection, stairs that led up to a different location of the guild each time in order to protect the place's location, Melody thought she saw a flash of red hair.

It couldn't be, could it? When Melody searched the presence's mind, she stopped in her tracks.

How could Erza Scarlet be alive?

The blue cat and blond turned and saw Gwyn. They began to fly faster.

Gwyn was about to grab the cat's tail, but someone else did instead. A hand rough with calluses and a little worn with age appeared.

"I'll take care of these two," a deep voice said. Gwyn looked up and saw the scarred face of Bane. Without waiting for her to answer, he grabbed the blond's foot and pulled her down from the ceiling. She squeaked in terror.

"Lu-ccy!" the blue cat cried, but he, too, was pulled down as well. His wings disappeared.

Gwyn winced as Bane proceeded to twist her neck. But he stopped suddenly.

"Never mind. I'll take her to the dungeon." He left, disappearing out of the door.

She stood in the smoke filled room, too deep in thought to remember to cough. That blond...when she cried out, something about it seemed vaguely familiar. Had they met before?

She returned to the room. Malikh and the boy were gone, probably to Lucifer.

~~~0~~~

After Malikh left, Lucifer fingered his book. Yes, it was his now.

He opened it. Shimmery words appeared.

Only the fairies of spirit, flame, ice, and blades shall unlock this book.

He cursed. But no matter. He will succeed. Lucifer couldn't kill the fairies, but it was worth it to succeed. He will mock his mother for being wrong.

His mother, Quantara Scarlet.


Okay, so the first name was completely random. I love cliffys! Sorry they make you feel a little disappointed, but I just can't resist.

Wait for the next chapter please! Also, reviews make me happy. :)

Au revoir! :3 (French)

(one last thing: my last words in the chapters, if you don't understand, are usually different languages of "Goodbye". I think it was German last time...)
