Soooooo... long time no see. Sorry for the delay. Life is busy and this pandemic is a bitch. Also, I wont lie, I got back on One Piece after I fell off it year ago. Last I remember it was only like 200ep in and next think I knew it was over 900. So binged watched it all and then I went down the One Piece fanfiction rabbit hole and got lost for a while. My bad. Anyways I'll try to bang out a few more chapters for you guys.

Traveling by lightning was a whole new experience for the pink haired dragon slayer. Feeling each hair on his body stand on end, feeling the little fuzzies tingling through his whole body as they blitz through the sky, it was like flying with Happy, only much faster. The only drawbacks were the overpowering smell of ozone and the crackling of thunder that followed, hurting his ears. It made Natsu feel sick, but he ignored it, his mind of Lucy and how they could convince her not to go.

Finally, after what felt like forever in the sky, the two landed at the train station. Natsu waited no time in heading towards the ticket stand, slamming his hands down on the counter.

"I need to know what train Lucy Lucy Heartiflia is on and if its left already."

The startled employee gasped, unsure of how to handle the raging mage that looked two seconds away from combusting by the smoke that left his body, scaring her as he glared down at her.

Laxus shoved Natsu to the side, snapping at him to cool it before addressing the shaking booking clerk. "Look, its important that we find out what train she is on. Its life or death." He said shortly.

The girl swallowed thickly before her shaking fingers moved to grab a large black book, finger trailing down the second pages logged info, knowing who they were looking for without asking for more information. All the mages of Fairy Tail were quite well known after all. "If I remember correctly, Miss Heartiflia boared train 231 headed towards Seven. 231 departed as of nearly two hours ago I'm afraid."

"Damnit!" Laxus snarled, lighting sparking around him. "Where in Seven!"

The girl hurriedly shook her hands out in front of her. "I dont know! 231 drops all passengers off at Seven's stations boarder, you'll have to go to the station to find out if she got off at the boarder or if she took another train, sorry!" She cried out.

"We were to late..." Natsu's wavering voice broke through the beginnings of what Laxus suspected to be a panic attack.

"We didnt make it in time." He said as tears filled his eyes as he looked up at Laxus.
