Once the sun was high in the sky Natsu, Lucy, and Happy had woken up from the ocarina's sleep spell and ran quickly to Nashi's bedroom to make sure she was alright. But when they got there the room was a mess, and Nashi was gone. The three of them were absolutely horrified by what had happened and became increasingly worried about Nashi. Lucy felt so guilty that she dropped to the floor in tears.

"They took Nashi. They came and I couldn't protect her." Lucy said while sobbing uncontrollably. "What kind of mother am I?" Natsu bent down and put his left arm over Lucy to comfort her and furiously punched the wall leaving a hole and cracks reaching to the ceiling with his right hand.

"Claudius and those bastards broke into our home in the middle of the night and kidnapped our baby!" Natsu said angrily. "There's gonna be hell to pay for this!"

"Over here. I think I know where they took Nashi." Happy called out to them by the window where they escaped. "Look, there's a trail of blood leading into the forest. One of them must have gotten injured."

"Looks like they headed west of here. Let's go! We've got no time to lose!" exclaimed Natsu.

All three of them bolted out of their house as fast as they could and followed the trail of blood. Their hearts were racing like never before. It took a few hours but they had finally found the church the cult had been using as their hideout.

"No doubt about it, that's gotta be where they took Nashi," said Natsu gazing at the old church.

"It looks and feels very ominous, like the place is haunted by ghosts" Lucy added

"What are we gonna do?" asked Happy.

"Easy, the three of us storm the place till we find Nashi. And beat up anyone who tries to stop us" replied Natsu as he and Happy began to charge.

Lucy quickly grabbed the back of their necks "Wait a minute!"

"But Lucy, Nashi's in there," Natsu said worryingly.

"We don't know what we could be up against, it's just the three of us." said Lucy. "Remember when they showed up at the guild? If we just charge in there all willy nilly then they might do something to Nashi. Her life could be on the line right now."

"Then I should probably go to the guild and get everyone," replied Happy.

"Are you sure?" asked Natsu.

Happy nodded and then he proceeded to fly towards the guild. Natsu and Lucy began to walk as close to the church quietly as possible. Both of them hid behind a shrub and began to discuss how they could sneak in.

"What do you think we should do while Happy gets everyone?" asked Natsu.

"Virgo could probably tunnel us in underground, after that we should-"

Before Lucy could even finish telling Natsu her idea, more than a hundred members of the cult all jumped out of the shadows all of a sudden. Morana and Cassius pinned Natsu and Lucy down to the ground and pointed their magic-proof guns at their heads. Natsu was very fired up now.

"If you two have any brains at all you would do exactly what we say. I mean, it really would be a shame if something happened to your precious daughter,"said Sidero."You were right sir. They would try to stop us".

Claudius walked over to Natsu and Lucy, smirking at them. Both of them were as furious as they could possibly be.

"I thought you two would show up"

"Where is she!?" growled Natsu.

"What did you do with Nashi!?" cried Lucy.

Claudius laughed and held a dagger to Natsu's face.

"After thirty years of searching, the power of the Tengoku Wizard is finally mine" he said with a smirk as he dragged the dagger across his cheek, cutting his skin. "To think that the little miracle you two brought into this world will be the very thing that puts an end to all of you unholy demons. I should thank you by sparing your lives. But I'm afraid I can't because God wants you both dead, and besides the irony of this is just too precious."

Natsu growled in anger at Claudius. "What the hell are you talking about!" he said tempestuously.

"What are you going to do to our daughter!?" cried Lucy in anger.

"Oh, you will find out soon enough," said Claudius in a menacing, maniacal tone. "Lock them up!"

The cult proceeded to lock up Natsu and Lucy in the dungeon. Horatio could only look on as Natsu and Lucy were engaged in the dungeon. His guilt lingered each and every moment he looked upon them through those cold, solid bars, and he tried to force such feelings away by sending glares at Claudius instead.

"You lay one hand on Nashi, I swear you will pay. I'll burn all of you till you're nothing but ashes!" shouted Natsu, shaking the bars as their captors walked away. "Get back here and fight me Claudius! You coward!"

The sharp hiss from Lisanna's mouth as she tried to stand up drew Natsu' and Lucy's attention, who could finally take a good look at how badly injured she was. They were absolutely horrified by what Claudius and the rest of the cult had done to her.

"Lisanna?" said Lucy.

"Lisanna, what happened to you!?" exclaimed Natsu in horror at her badly battered body.

"It didn't take them long to find out I'd lied about being the Tengoku wizard. They beat me as punishment"

Their hearts were heavy at the pain she'd suffered for their daughter's sake."But Lisanna, why did you give yourself up like that?" asked Lucy.

"I thought that if they got what they came to Fairy Tail for then they would leave. Then everyone would be safe" she replied crying.

"The Tengoku wizard is Nashi." Natsu revealed with no prelude.

Lisanna gasped in horror "They're going to drain her of her ethernano. After that, they'll use it to permanently end all magic in the world."

Lucy was absolutely horrified by this revelation "But she'll...she'll die!" she exclaimed.

Natsu was ever so mad now "Don't worry I'll bust all of us out and kick Cladius's ass and burn everyone else into a pile of ashes. Fire dragon-"

"Natsu don't!" shouted Lisanna.

Natsu let a huge roar out, but his fire immediately deflected off of the bars and the walls of the cell. It was apparent the cells were magic proof. Natsu tried to shield Lucy from his fire till it went out. Lucy tried to summon her spirits, but the magic proof dungeon prevented her from using her keys.

"I can't even summon my spirits in here!?" Lucy said in shock and despair.

"Looks like I'll have to bust the bars down."

Natsu walked to the back of the cell and crouched down. He then proceeded to sprint as fast as he could towards the bars. Slamming into them with all his might, but he found it was no use. The bars just wouldn't budge.
