So far today had sucks for him. Everyone was just so excited about Raven Tail coming again that night, but he couldn't stand it. Sure it would be nice to see Bickslow again, but was this all worth it. What if they were just saying this to get on Fairy Tail's good side? He wouldn't put it past his father to try such a thing. They had direct information on the council. Something his father would want.
He sighed as they all began to gather in his father's old room again. He looked to his left. Mira and Elfman looked excited to see Lisanna. His grandfather was talking to Evergreen and Freed while Laki made refreshments. He knew this was supposed to be a happy moment, but he couldn't let go of the feeling he had. Something was going to happen and it would be all Raven Tail's fault.
He turned around, exiting the room. He wanted a stronger drink for this. Once he reached the kitchen, he grabbed himself a bottle of whiskey from the fridge and gulped some of it straight from the bottle. Placing the bottle down, he wiped his mouth. He was about to place the bottle back into the fridge when he heard a blood curdling scream from upstairs. He dropped the bottle and it crashed to the floor, sending glass and whiskey everywhere. He made his way up the stairs in haste, cursing his father. Knowing that he had been correct.
As he made it to the room, he found the door closed. He panicked hearing the screams from the other side of the door. He pulled on the door with all of his might and it wouldn't budge. Growling in frustration, he began to shock the door, sending powerful waves of electricity through the door, but nothing happened. He knew he only had one shot left. He backed away before sending a dragon roar at the door.
The wooden door gave way revealing a dark ora. Without thinking he ran into the ora, only to find his worst nightmare surrounding him. Everyone was dead. He began to scream into the void cursing his father.
Suddenly, he heard a faint chuckle behind him, he turned to face the intruder and was surprised. It looked to be a teenager, he couldn't be older than 15. His red eyes glowed in the darkness. So his father was using children to do his dirty work.
"Who are you?" He yelled at the boy. "Why have you done this?"
The boy smirked. "Laxus Dreyar. That is your name."
He sent a blast at the boy in anger. "That wasn't what I asked. I know who I am."
The boy placed his hand up defecting the blast. Chortling to himself. "No I don't think you do." The boy sighed. "What a pity. You look like a strong one. But this is the end of the line. Pathetic." The boy disappeared into the black ora.
"Pathetic….How am I pathetic? I'm not the one going around and killing innocent people." He spun as he spoke. Trying to pinpoint where the deranged boy was.
Laughter came from the darkness. "Look at them. You weren't strong enough to save them. You're weak."
He sent a roar through the darkness in anger, breaking through it. He stared in shock as he found an alive Mira screaming on the floor, shaking from her surroundings. He took no time in running to her side.
"Mira get up." She looked up at him. Tears following down her cheeks.
She brushed his face. "Laxus…you're alive." He looked about the room and saw that they were surround by the corpses of Elfman, Lisanna, and himself.
So this was his game. His child showed you your greatest fears. He looked back down at Mira noticing that she had scratched her arm up really badly. He quickly ripped off a piece of his shirt and wrapped her arm.
He saw her look up at the false reality. "It looked so real."
"But it's not. My father probably just wanted to get close enough to destroy us. He's always hated us."
Tears streamed down Mira's cheek. "We need to get Lisanna. I…We can't leave her with them." He nodded as he stood her up and they both looked around. "Where do you think the others are?"
"I don't know, but the only way to find them is to blast through the darkness." He said filling his other hand with electricity. She nodded before switching over to her demon mode, aiming at the same wall as he did.
The wall broke free revealing his Grandfather. Makarov Dreyar was floating in mid-air. As he and his girlfriend stepped into the room, he looked around to find all of Magnolia on fire, the corpses of the entire guild around him. He was even surprised to find his father's corpse among the pile.
As he looked up, he saw the boy laughing again as he pulled a sharp sword from the air around him. He would have to move fast.
He motioned for Mira to fly up. She nodded as he ran over to the other side. The boy had not seen him yet. He cringed as the boy began to speak.
"You just had to go looking. If you hadn't my master would have left you alone. All of this could have been avoided." The sinister voice said as it admired the blade in his hands.
He only had one shot at this, gathering all of his magic together in the back of his throat he sent a massive dragon roar through the air, knocking the boy straight at Mira who was already set up to blast him.
He watched as the boy fell to the ground unconscious and Mira caught him just as he caught the old man. He looked down at his grandfather, the man looked at him in confusion. "Laxus…how?"
"It's all a trick old man." As he spoke the darkness around them began to crack, braking into a million pieces. He looked around to find large scratches under Elfman's eyes. Laki had pulled her hair out, it was now a lot shorter. Evergreen had the glass from her glasses stuck in her hand, but the worst one was Freed. His best friend had lost more than just some hair. He was missing a couple of fingers.
Laki immediately began to wrap his hand as they all looked around them. He turned back to Mira who was still holding the boy who had caused all of this.
"Laxus set me down." His grandfather demanded. He complied setting the man down and watched as the old man walked over to the boy. "Mira drop him." His heard venom in the man's voice.
Mira smirked before dropping him to the floor. The boy stayed unconscious. He knew they had hit him pretty hard.
Suddenly he heard a noise behind him, turning with the group to find his father, Remy, and Lisanna all staring at them. He didn't think sending a blast at his father.
In seconds he froze as Lisanna jumped in front of Ivan, getting hit with his hardest blast.
"LISANNA!" Mira ran to her sister only to be blocked by an invisible wall. "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HER?!" Mira screamed, slapping her fists against the wall.
He was about to use a blast again on the wall, when his grandfather strode up to the wall. Sending Ivan a nasty glare. "You dare to show your face around here? After the stunt you just pulled?"
Ivan looked at him in confusion. The other man looked angry. "What we've pulled, what about you. Throwing magical beams at us just as we show up."
He looked down at Lisanna, knowing he couldn't do anything. They were stuck between a rock and a hard place. He could not shield and heal at the same time. And teleporting out of here would be close to impossible. He knew that Bickslow should have come with them. His son said he would be along in a couple minutes, the boy wanted to ask Warner and Carma about something.
'Ivan I need you to get the stuff out of my pocket. It will slow her bleeding.' He sent over their mind link. He felt Ivan go through his pockets, finding the vial. He had to smirk as he watched the group's faces look on in horror as Ivan gave her the vial.
He felt something hit the wall and found a large man with white hair running at it. He would fly back a bit before trying again. Looking at the man, he had to be Lisanna's brother. He sighed to himself wondering what all of this was about. Everything had been fine that morning.
To his side he heard a rustle knowing his son had just arrived, he turned to face him only to find that his eyes were glowing red, a sudden chill went down his spine.
He was grateful for the favor. He had asked his follow weapons for some help. He wanted to get an engagement ring. He already was planning to marry Lisanna. The meteor shower had shown him the truth, so there really wasn't any reason to put it off. It was inevitable at this point. He laughed with his friends before teleporting off.
He found himself in the Dreyar home, ready to talk with his old friends once again. As he landed he noticed one thing straight away. His father's shield was up. He looked around seeing the battered faces of his former guild. He looked over seeing both Makarov and Laxus staring angrily at his father. Elfman was running at the shield and Mira was beating on it. Why?
Then out of the corner of his eye, he saw it. Lisanna was beaten on the ground. Ivan was trying to attend to her. His mind began to rush as it felt like someone was attacking him. His stomach felt like it was about to heave. His anger was growing. A voice he had never heard began to speak in the back of his head. 'Kill them. They all deserve to die.'
He felt himself agreeing with the voice as his anger grew. He didn't notice his father looking at him in fear as he stepped forward. "I got this. You heal Lisanna." The unfamiliar voice said as it stepped forward.
Remy listened running over to his girlfriend. The shield dissipated as Elfman ran at it again, coming straight for him. His eyes flashed as he brought his arm up. He didn't even touch the man and he went flying.
"YOU BASTARD!" He heard a female voice say to his side. He lifted his other arm, only hearing her crash through multiple walls.
"Take her back to the guild. This won't take me long." He said as he stopped a bolt of electricity that had sent his way. He turned to face the person who dared to attack him.
He found the face of a man he knew well. Laxus Dreyar was looking at him, his face filled completely with rage.
He heard the pouf of his family as they left. He smirked at his new prey. The blond really thought he stood a chance.
He was about to send another attack, when he felt a hand clasp his shoulder. He looked over to find Ivan staring at him.
"Stop this. I know your angry, but don't let it control you." He didn't understand what the man was saying. Fairy Tail had ambushed them.
"Why?" He asked confused as to why his father was still here.
"Son, let's go ho.."
It happened so fast. A blast of energy hit his father in the chest, knocking him to his feet. He stared down at the broken body of his parent before looking back to Fairy Tail.
Makarov looked down in anger, his hand was outstretched. "I'm tired of this Ivan. I'm tired of all of the lies."
He felt the rage bottle up as he felt his eyes burn. It wasn't tears, the black smoke had returned. The old man made to strike again, but froze, looking up at him. The old man began to feel at this throat digging at it for air.
The Blonde had begun to attack at him again, but was stopped by a shield. He chuckled to himself. When did fighting become this easy?
His mind was clouded with rage as he sent the old man flying through the air, making him fall against a beam.
He looked around him, finding everyone face staring at him in horror. He found he rather liked it. He was about to send them all to the next world went he heard his father stir. "Bickslow." Blood was coming from his mouth. Looking down at the broken man one thought began to go through his head. 'He needs a doctor or a healer. I can't get him to one like this.' His mind began to calm slightly. The black smoke faded as he strode over to Ivan's side. "Let's go home."
Ivan sent him a weak smile, before passing out again. He grabbed the unconscious man, before turning back to the guild. His voice had returned to normal as he spoke. "Don't look for us. Don't come near us."
"Why would we, you freak?!" Evergreen screamed as she hugged Elfman to her.
His eyes turned to Laxus. "I hate you."
Laxus's eyes went wide for a second before looking at him in rage. "You hate me? NO I HATE YOU!"
He felt himself smirk. "Then we agree brother."
"We could never be brothers. Not after everything you've done."
"You're one to talk."
To his side he looked down and saw something, no someone he had never seen before. A young teenage boy with black hair was knocked out on the floor. "So who is the kid?" He said pointing to the boy.
"Don't pretend like you don't know. He's one of you! He came to kill us."
Now he was confused. He looked down at the young boy before sighing. If this kid attacked them then he probably knew something. He reached down and pulled the boy up with him.
"You're not taking him anywhere. That bastard tried to kill us and we want answers." Laxus said. Trying to block him.
"Something both of us want, but only one of us may have." He chuckled at the man. Before sending him flying into a wall. "This is it, consider us enemies from this day forward." And with that he teleported out of the guild with his father and the strange boy in tow.
