Hi guys!
Levy: Nuh uh. You ain't getting off that easy!
Haha, w-what a-are y-you t-t-talking about?! Hehe…
Lucy: You know what! You left all the readers hanging last week with no update! They probably think you're dead!
Okay! First off, I'm not dead guys xD. I'm really sorry I didn't update last week. I was busy from Friday to Saturday night, then I got sick. I knew I had to update, but I just didn't feel like writing while I was sick. Then today I slammed my finger in the door REALLY hard, and almost didn't post. But I felt bad about last week, so here I am typing with a (possibly) broken finger. Well, let's get to the put off chapter! Finding Lucy Chapter 25!

Bisca POV
"You're left!"
"Thanks Bis"
"Behind you!"
I spin around, and shoot a beam of magic thrown at me, successfully destroying it. I pull the trigger again, and successfully hit three surprised assassins.
"This wave of mages is getting annoying" I call out.
"Yah, I just want to get this over with" Alzack replied, sending his opponent flying.
After a moment of silence (Well it wasn't silence, because we're in a battlefield, but you get the point), I spoke up saying, "Promise you'll make it out of this so we can go back to Asuka?"
"I'll promise as long as you promise" He replied, as I shot an enemy sneaking up on his right.
"Deal" I shouted, spinning behind me, knocking an enemy unconscious with the butt of my gun.
I hear a familiar voice yelling, and spot streaks of white and blue. Someone else must be knocked down. This is really not going well.
I gasp as a string of magic narrowly misses me. In instinct, I spin around and shoot the attacker. Thank goodness that didn't hit me!
I shoot an enemy on my right, then peek over my shoulder at Alzack. He's struggling to continue because of an injury on his back. It takes a second, but I realize it must have been that shot that almost hit me. I should have been paying more attention.
"Bisca behind you!" Alzack frantically shouted, sending my flying around and shooting an enemy I hadn't noticed behind me on my left.
"Thanks Al!" I yell out, turning around only to see a blank look on his face. Blank look? Blank? Blank. BLANK. BLANK!
I involuntarily scream, and run over to him, shooting enemies all around him and one trailing me.
"Alzack!" I yell, as I pull him to the ground, dodging the arrow flying towards him. But there's no point to that, because he has a throwing star lodged in his back.
"Remember the promise? It's just a little star…" I fumble, trying my best to remove the star. When I do remove it, he coughs out blood. I shoot the enemies that got too close for comfort, then look back down at him.
"Yeah, I remember Bis" He says, putting on a smile, making me crack like an egg.
"It's okay" I murmur, petting his hair as tears stream down my face.
"Common Bisca, don't be like that" He tells me, right before his eyes widen and he jumps over me.
"Al?" I squeak, feeling something warm on my stomach.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't keep the promise" Alzack mutters, making the world seeming freeze.
"ALZACK!"

Wendy POV
"ALZACK!"
I shiver in fear, because that probably means Alzack's dead. The way it was said was so desperate and hurt.
Things in here are doing horrible too. Laxus is still on his rampage, Gajeel's badly wounded and unconscious, Natsu's missing, Juvia-chan and Mira-san are dead, and Gray's passed out. Not to mention the long list of wounded Polyorscia's healing in the infirmary.
"U-Um! LAXUS-CHAN!?" I yell out, in hopes he'll calm down. By some miracle, he does. Laxus falls to the ground, not shooting any more lightning, but instead crying.
"I-I'm sorry about Mira-san. She was so nice, and we're all hurting, but if we don't fight, we'll lose more comrades.
"You don't know the pain I'm feeling!" Laxus yells, electricity filling the air.
"No. You're right. It doesn't mean this doesn't hurt though. Please, everyone needs you Laxus-san!" I cry out.
"No. We're all going to die anyways. What's the point of trying?!"
"BECAUSE YOU CAN SAVE THEM!"
"NO I CAN'T WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!"
"YOU COULD AT LEAST SAVE ONE PERSON! YOU COULD CHANGE OUR FATE BY SAVING AT LEAST ONE PERSON!"
"No. No I can't"

Bisca POV
I burst upwards, and go on a rampage, shooting anything around me that moves.
When I finally calm down, I look around and see about a hundred assassins wiped out, leaving none near me. I don't dare look back at Alzack's body, I just hollowly move towards where everyone else is.
"Oh thank god, it's finally Sabertooth"
"Huh?"
"The sky, they're in that airship"
I look up to the sky, and indeed see an airship flying over us. But something seems off. Why would Sabertooth arrive in an airship?
"What are they doing? How come they aren't landing?"
"I don't know…"
"Bisca, Alzack, are you tuned in?"
I snap out of my daze, and pain comes rushing back. I make a weird choking sound, then reply.
"I am. But Alzack's gone." I say numbly
"Oh my Mavis, Bisca, I'm so sorry!" Jet says, gasping
"I don't want to talk about it. What do you want?" I ask.
"Shoot down that airship. I don't think it's Sabertooth. If it is, oh well, but we can't take chances"
"I'm feeling the same way" I mutter, pulling out my sniper and laying on the ground. I set up the gun, then put my eye on the scope. After finding my target, and taking in a deep breath, I put my finger on the trigger. But I hesitate. And that's the biggest mistake of my life, because I feel a searing pain on my head and darkness consumes my vision.
I hate assassins.

Freed POV
I wait for Bisca to take her shot, but it never comes. I get a nagging feeling in the back of my head, so I take action and run to the guild to set up a barrier.
"Bisca? BISCA?!" I frantically yell. No luck, she must have been compromised. It's no matter now cause all I have is a few more symbols.
If only I could have written faster. Not training more was the biggest mistake of my life.
I hear a whistling sound, and look up. A missile is coming from the airship, and voices are screaming in my head. The last sound I ever hear is an explosion.

Chelia's POV
I hadn't been paying attention to what was going on over the telekinesis, but when I heard a major explosion, I tuned in.
"Jet had just unloaded too…"
"I can't believe everyone's gone"
"This is seriously bad. Gray, Cana, Guildarts, Wendy, Polyorscia, Romeo, Elfman, Lisanna, Mirajane, Laxus, Evergreen, Free, Jet, Droy, Levy, Gajeel, Ichiya. They were all taken out in that one explosion."
Wendy? Taken out? Explosion? The realization hits, and I whip my head to the airship, sending out a large roar. I manage to take out a propeller, and it crashes into the ruins of the Fairy Tail guild hall.
I can't believe. I can't believe they're all dead. Wendy. My best friend, and all her friends, are dead.
