Chapter 41:

"HAHAHA! Oh, god! You're so pathetic! You only scratched me!" Rustyrose said laughing like maniac. He was standing above badly beaten Lisanna and barely standing Levi. Lisanna glared weakly at him. 'Only if Levi and I didn't get injured before...'

"Now to finish you off" He said with evil smirk.

Levi tensed as she waited for final blow.

"Arc of embodiment:-" He never finished as someone shouted behind him "Get away from them!"

Rustyrose turned around and Levi and Lisanna looked up to see none other then Freed and Bickslow.

"Freed! Bickslow!" Levi and Lisanna said. Finally something good happened.

"One and only babe!" Bickslow said grinning.

"Are you all right?" Freed asked not moving his eyes from smiling Rustyrose.

"We'll live" Lisanna said weakly.

"Well then... Get ready Bickslow! We are gonna make Ever proud!" Freed said smiling.

Magic filled the area as Freed and Bickslow prepared for fight.

"Lets's go my babies!" Bickslow said as his 'babies'started gathering magic in their mouth and in the same time Bickslow reached for his mask taking it off revealing his tattooed face.

"Dark Écriture: Absolute Shadow!" Freed said in serious voice.

Magic warped around Freed's body as his right eye glowed purple. When magic died down Freed looked like a monster from children's stories. Freed's upper body became covered in a dark armor, complete with large shoulder pads and a helmet with a menacing appearance; his hair became slicked back and protrudes from the opening in the helmet.

"You'll regret attacking our guild!" Freed said as he and Bickslow charged at Rusyrose.

"We'll see about that! Arc of embodiment: Jet Black Sword!" His hand turned in clawed black beast's arm.

"Let's have fun!" Rustyrose said as their attacks collided.

Bicklows 'babies' deflected Rusty's attack. Freed jumped over Bickslow and catching silver haired mage off gourd he fired his spell "Darkness Flare Bomb!" Freed created a sphere-like bomb made from dark energy and just when he was in front of Rustyrose he pushed his hand forward pushing the bomb in dark mage's chests. Rustyrose was sent flying but was able to get control of his movements as he flipped in air and landed on the ground on his feet skidding backwards until finally stopping.

He growled as he looked down on his burned chest and hole in shirt.

"That was my favorite shirt you bastard! You'll pay for the crime you committed!" he yelled dramatically. Freed and Bickslow sweat-dropped at the mage that was almost crying for his shirt.

"Arc of embodiment: hellhounds!" he yelled. A second later the ground around dark mage cracked and not long after that two tree-headed dogs emerged from the ground. Dogs had reddish fur and their eyes were completely black, no pupils, no iris, just black. They had long and sharp teeth and the foam was coming from their mouth. Long tail trashing madly behind them.

"What the...?" Bickslow said taking step back when one of the heads on one dog barked at him.

"Say hello to my friends" Rusty said to Freed and Bickslow then he turned to the dogs "Why don't you go to play with them so you can be better friends?"

Dogs barked loudly before running at stunned Fairy Tail mages. As thy run few heads howled in excitement. Freed snapped out of his shock first and said "Bickslow! Get ready!"

This snapped Bickslow out as they prepared to fight.

"Dark Écriture: Wings!" Freed yelled and on his backs appeared wings as he avoided just in time to beaten in half by dogs. Did I forgot to mention that they were the same height as Freed himself.

Bickslow jumped over the dog but he didn't saw dog's tail in time. The tail crashed in his head as he collided with the ground.

"Bickslow!" Freed yelled worried for his friend. Then much to his horror dog turned around and was about to bit off Bickslow leg. Bickslow didn't have enough time to move out of the way.

Thinking fast Freed yelled "Dark Écriture: Slay!"

He drew his sword and swung it at dog's head that was closest to Bickslow. Sword was warped in his runs as he swung it down creating powerful blast of energy that cut the dog's head. The dog howled in pain as he jumped away from Bickslow.

Bickslow not losing his chance get away before the dog got back. He still had two heads left after all.

Freed smiled under his helmet but his smile soon disappeared when a voice behind him said "Did you forget about me?"

Freed turned just in time to stop Rusty's 'Jet black sword' with his own sword before it collided with his head. He flew backwards after few seconds and got better look at Rustyrose. Said dark mage was now also flying on something that looked like wings that was attached to his legs.

Rustyrose noticed Freed's look and smiled "Do you like it? It's my 'Pegasus Wings'"

Freed ignored silver haired man and growled "Darkness Breath!"

He charged dark energy and molds it into the shape of a highly destructive tornado. Rustyrose, looking annoyed because he was ignored dodged Freed's attack and yelled "Arc of embodiment: Jet black sword!"

His 'sword' extended toward Freed who dodged it.

Freed looked for a second at Bickslow who was dealing with two hellhounds in the moment.

One of the remaining heads on former three-headed now two-headed dog howled and charged at Bickslow who was trying not to get eaten by the other one.

"I could use some help here, man!" Bickslow yelled to Freed just as his 'babies' pushed three-headed dog out of Bickslow way just in time for him to dodge clawed paw of other monstrous dog.

Freed pushed Rustyrose as he yelled back "I'm a little busy right now!"

Bickslow glanced at where Freed was and growled "Shit"

"Baryon Formation!" At Bickslow's command, all of his dolls position themselves in a pentagonal pattern. A large whirlwind is produced around the formation, and from the latter's hollow center a massive and powerful Magical beam is generated, which is subsequently fired towards one of the dogs. The three-headed dog didn't have time to doddge as it was destroyed by powerful beam. The dog fell on the ground with loud 'thud' before it turned to ashes and disappeared.

Bickslow jumped out of the way of remaining dog and panted as he did so. He used to much magic for that last attack.

Up in the sky Freed pushed Rustyrose in the tree and jumped down on earth next to Bickslow who smiled and said "Took you long enough"

Freed smirked behind his helmet "Shut up"

They both charged at the dog who was getting closer with each passing second.

"Dark Écriture:..." Freed started.

"Line Formation!" Bickslow yelled in the same time as Freed finished his spell with "... Slay!"

Two beams of purple light fired t the dog and went right trough each of its heads killing last dog.

Rustyrose came out of the bushes and growled when he saw his hellhounds defeated. He dusted his clothes and yelled "This ends now!"

Freed and Bickslow turned around and stood in fighting stance getting ready for next attack.

"Ghosts of Brittia!" Rustyrose enveloped Freed and Bickslow in a wave of ghost-like entities, which wrap around them. Freed and Bickslow looked around them at ghosts.

"You think this'll stop us?" Freed yelled.

"I know that! This is my most powerful spell and no one has ever escaped it!" Rusty's voice came from all around them.

Bickslow and Freed smirked. "I hope you're ready for disappointment!" Freed

"Dark Écriture: Swallow" A powerful wind formed around Freed and Bickslow as ghost-like creatures were sucked away by the wind.

Rustyrose stared at them in shock. "H-how?!" he asked.

"Don't be so surprised!" Bickslow yelled grinning.

"This just proves I'm more powerful then you are since I can do this only when my opponent is weaker then me" Freed explained and Rusty fell down on the ground.

"B-but that's impossible.." he stuttered looking at Freed and Bickslow and for the first time in his life he felt this uneasy felling. 'Could it be...' he thought 'Is this fear?'

"H-how?" He asked after few moments of silence.

Freed and Bickslow looked at each other and smiled "Because we have our family"

Freed dispelled his 'Absolute shadow' and said calmly "Dark Écriture: Seal"

And with that Rustyrose froze in the spot with runs on his forehead.

Bickslow laughed as he and his babies kicked unmoving man sending him flying to somewhere in the woods.

"High five!" Bickslow yelled as he and Freed clapped their hands.

Just then Charla and Lily came running toward them "We heard sound of fight, is everyone alright?" Lily sad.

Freed smiled "Yea... We're fine"

"That's good to hear" Lily said smiling.

"We should stay here" Charla said and Lily nodded. They left only few minutes before Rusty rose came. The were going to try to find Happy since no one hasn't seen him in awhile.

Charla and Lily then started working on Levi's and Lisanna's wounds while Bickslow and Freed talked about their whole situation. After about ten minutes a loud scream was heared.

"AAAAAHHHHHHHHH! HELP MEEEEE!" Lucy said with anime tears running down her face as she run into the camp.

They looked at her confused but their eyes widened when a giant man came running behind Lucy trying to catch her.

Freed grabbed his sword and swung it at the man.

Lucy stopped running when she saw that and yelled at Freed "Don't let him take your hair!"

Freed looked at her confused but when he saw doll in man's arm he got the idea what was she talking about.

He jumped from the man next to Lucy.

"Who's he by the way?" Bickslow said as he joined the fight.

"He's one of the seven kin. Kain... somethin" Lucy said and Kain stopped.

"Hey I now your name! How come you forgot mine?!" Kain yelled pointing at Lucy.

Lucy screamed at him "How on Earth you know my name if I never told you?!"

Kain then looked at her like she grown second head. After few moments of staring at her he nodded "You're right! I really don't know your name!"

Lucy, Bickslow and Freed sweet-dropped.

"Not the brightest one, I see..." Bickslow said and sweat-dropped again.

Others just nodded their heads.

"Well now..." Freed said as he prepared for another fight. Bickslow ran at the giant and hit him in head sending him flying. What he didn't saw was that he hit him right where injured members were.

Freed glared at him "How about you watch what you're doing?!"

Bickslow just laughed nervously "Heheh... I got little carried away"

Kain's voice get their attention "Oh! I never put pink colored hair in Mr. Cursey!"

"Bickslow looked at Lucy who sighed "He named that doll"

Freed and Bickslow nodded. Then they all three realized what he just said. Only one man, or better to say dragon has pink hair!

They looked at each other and palled.

They looked at Kian who already had Natsu's hair in his fingers. He put strand of hair on Mr. Cursey's head and smiled.

"Look! Mr. Cursey now have pink hair!" He said as he straighten his doll and much to their horror Natsu raised from his bed with his eyes closed.

"Hey... Lucy... H-he can't use his magic right?" Bickslow stuttered.

"I-I don't know..." Lucy said trying not to piss her pants. She truly hoped he wasn't able to do that but then again once Natsu wake up he won't be happy about this...

They all seemed to have the same thought as they gulped in union. This just become much tougher then it was a second ago.

"We're so screwed!" Bickslow said and other nodded.

End of chapter 41.

Next chapter: "I so gonna kill you for giving him my hair!"

I know it's short but at least it was soon... right... So I hope you like this chapter and I would like to hear what you think about it.
