I do not own Fairy Tail. Enjoy this chapter.

Lucy had her hand over her mouth, watching in terror as she watched the sweet little girl she had just met fight for her life."But- it doesn't make any sense. How can she be in a dark guild?"

"Something's not right here." Lucy looked over at Natsu. He had one of his dark looks on his face that he got when he was angry.

"Nat-" Lucy stiffened at the sound of a growl come from behind her. Spinning around she saw a creature from a nightmare. It was a mixture of a snake with a wild dog. "What is that?!"

Aiko turned back towards the Fairy Tail and Lamia Scale mages at the sound of a scream. A demon had come at the mages from behind. She moved her arm down in a swift motion, sending a wave of magic to break the shield she had made. Pushing her hand against the earth she sent the ground at the beast.

Something collided with her side. Aiko slammed against the ground from the force. "You let your guard down." She turned back to the dark mage. She moved her arms back into position to control the ground. "None of that." Another blast hit her, this time the full force sent her flying. She pushed herself onto her knees. She looked up to see the dark mage begin to form another attack. A flash of pink came across her vision.

Natsu sent his fist into the dark mage's stomach. He was going by his usual motto, act now, ask questions later. He sent his knee into the mage's throat. He heard him gag for air as Natsu hit him again, fist flaming. "Bastard!"

The third in command quickly recovered. "You're useless. You can't answer what the Lord wants to know."

"THE HELL DOES THAT MEAN!" Natsu dodged one of the dark mage's attacks, only to be hit with another.

"NATSU!" Aiko watched in horror as the fire mage was thrown to the side.

"Now," the dark mage turned towards her, "tell me where he is." Aiko shakily moved in to another fighting position. Her legs buckled under her and she fell back down. The dark mage strode over to her and yanked her up by her neck. His fingers closed around her throat and she started gasping for air. Out of the corner of her eye she saw the Fairy Tail and Lamia Scale mages fighting a pack of demons that had just made their presence known. They're not supposed to get hurt.

The grip around her throat tightened. "Where's my answer." She tried to focus on the now blurry mage. Her vision was turning black and her head throbbed. Onii-chan…help.

Do I work instead?

Aiko widened her eyes at the sound of a familiar voice. Wind sliced between her and the dark mage. The dark mage screamed in pain from his now cut, bleeding hand. His grip on her loosened and she fell to the ground. Another force of air sent the dark mage flying away from her.

Natsu pushed himself up in time to see the dark mage flying across the clearing. He turned back to where he last saw Aiko struggling. A boy a few year younger than him stood next to her. Is he the one that sent that guy flying? Natsu startedmoving towards the younger mages. "Well done." The dragon slayer turned towards the new voice. Another mage stood where the first had appeared. "I see pure mages are no small fret. Then again, no mage of Zeref's is either." There's another one?! Where are these guys coming from!

Takeshi glared at the other mage. A little ways off he saw the mage from earlier get back up and start making his way back towards them. Isamu's tugs, huh. What the hell do they want?

"Oi, Aiko, stand up. We don't lose to scum like this, remember."

Aiko looked at the other pure magic mage. He had one of his scary, determined looks on his face. She moved to her feet, "Takeshi… Who are these guys?"

"That bastard Isamu's cutthroats." He turned back towards the small girl. "Don't disgrace the title."

Aiko nodded. If pure magic mages were strong, so was she.

Natsu watched in shock. Are those kids seriously going to fight Zeref's mages? "NATSU!"

The dragon slayer turned to the sound of Lucy's voice. Countless demons were attacking the guild members, tearing, slashing, and biting. Where are all these demons coming from?! The dragon slayer flamed his fist as he moved towards the pack of demons. Even Erza seemed to be having difficulty at the chaotic affair.

Takeshi matched his opponent's every move, caught in a never ending violent dance between magic. He's not a pure magic mage, but he's no weakling. He felt the dark mage's fist collide in his stomach and he fell back. But if he's here, where's Isamu?

"Focus, you little piece of shit!"

Takeshi turned towards the sound of Masaru's voice, just in time to see her clobber the dark mage. "WHAT DID YOU CALL ME!"

Masaru ignored the younger mage's shouts. She ducked as new mage sent a blast of magic at her. So Isamu has his three best on us. She sidestepped the counter attack from the mage she just hit. Rounding behind him she kicked him into an unexpected flight, crashing into the mage attacking Aiko. "You two deal with the demons. I'll handle this."

Wendy moved to avoid the blow from an attacking demon. Cuts ran up and down her arms from the fighting and she felt her magic slowly disappearing. A quick glance around showed her comrades weren't doing any better. I have to keep fighting for the guild. She panted and looked at an oncoming demon. "Roar of th-"

She blinked in surprise. A arc of wind slashed across the demon's body. Was that… sky magic. She watched in awe as another slice of wind cut across five more demons at one. It's like wind and sky magic. But different, even Chelia's magic wasn't like this. She turned towards the source of the powerful magic. A boy a few years older than her stood, forming another slice of wind. Her eyes widened once more when they fell on the mark present on his arm. He's a dark mage too?

Erza glanced at the two mages that had joined the fight. Aiko and another boy with the same guild mark were making a dent in the number of demons. Interesting, dark mages that slay demons. She watched the younger mages them stood a third mage with the guild mark on their arms, fighting the dark mages that seemed to be with Zeref. So if they're against Zeref, how do they have that magic? It shouldn't even exist.

Lyon moved his back against Sherry's, keeping offense while giving the other defense. Out of the corner of his eye he watched the new mage fight Zeref's lackeys. Her magic is more developed. The last time I've felt magic like this it was when Gray went after Deliora.

Masaru sent the first in command backwards, rounding back she hit the second in command. "Just tell us where he is and we'll end this."

Masaru snorted. "If you're talking about the ice block he's a little busy fighting one of your damn demons at the moment." She sent a blast of magic into the third in command's chest. She ducked as the first in command sent a slice of killing magic at her.

"Oh, I think he'll come. Especially if his comrades are in danger."

The ground started shaking uncontrollably. A magic circle appeared in the sky above the fighting mage's heads. Dammit! That's a transport portal. What hellish demon are they s3nding now?!

Natsu looked up at the magic circle that had appeared out of nowhere. He froze as a demon larger than that resembled the size of a tower step out of it. What type of magic is this?! A serpent slithered out of the magic circle. Sweeping its head its slits of eyes narrowed on the group of mages.

"What is that?" Lucy's voice quivered. It was like a creature from her worst nightmare.

"It's a B class demon." Lucy turned to the unfamiliar voice. The young teen boy from she saw earlier stood next to her. Glaring at the demon in front of them."

"B cla-"

"The teen turned around suddenly, looking at Aiko. "Don't just stand there. We're not here to watch these mages get hurt."

Lucy watched astonished as the small girl nodded and moved towards the demon. Are they crazy? They're just kids.

Natsu's fist collided in the side of the demon. The teen boy and Aiko fought side by side against the serpent. "Roar of the… FIRE DRAGON!" Natsu bellowed a stream of fire magic at the serpent. Dammit, why isn't it taking damage.

"Oi, Aiko." The earth mage clanked up at the sound of Takeshi's voice. "Remember what a unison raid is?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Think we need to pull one off."

Aiko's eyes widened in surprise. "But Mace said not too, that it would be too much magic released at once."

"Does it look like we have a choice here."

Aiko slightly, reluctantly took Takeshi's outstretched hand. In unison the merged their magic. "Goddess of earth," "God of the sky," "Gaea ," "Jove, UNISON RAID!"

Natsu felt the shy and earth tremble. A flash of blinding gold light seemed to swallow everything whole. The serpent hissed in pain and withered. "What is this?"

Takeshi collapsed onto his knees. "Aiko, you okay?" he panted.

"Uhh,"

"I'll take that as a maybe." The small girl seemed to be on the verge of passing out. Can't blame her, I'm completely out of magic. He stiffened at the sound of clapping.

"Very well done."

Masaru glared at the newcomer. "What are you doing here, Isamu?"

"Isn't that obvious? I'm getting the attention of the new power on the block."

Natsu turned towards the sound of the new voice. Where do these guys keep coming from?!

Something was off about this guy. All the remaining demons had stood still at his arrival. "I can't say these mages are pathetic for regular mages. But they're not much" Natsu felt his blood boil. How dare he insult Fairy Tail. His fist flamed up and he started moving towards him. The new dark mage turned towards the dragon slayer. "You're not worth fighting, though you are the perfect bait."

If Natsu thought the earth trembled before it was nothing compared to now. A black magic circle appeared around the dark mage. Magic moved in all directions and destroyed everything in its path.

Natsu fell to his knees from the force. It took all his effort to keep his eyes on the dark mage. "Basta-"

Natsu was cut off as the force of magic overwhelmed him. It was suffocating, he felt his own magic being drained from his body. What type of magic is this? Something black and pale white flashed in front of his vision. The figure moved in front of the dark mage, magic radiated from the figure, matching the dark mage's power ounce by ounce. The dragon slayer gaped in shock, believing hi own eyes were playing tricks on him.

"Gray?"
