Hello, dear readers. I was a little disappointed at the lack of response for the last chapter, but the one wonderful review I got was enough to keep me excited about this story. So a big thank you, Silvx, and Happy Birthday! I wish you have an amazing day today!

To be honest, I haven't written anymore chapter of demons in the past 10 days, but that's because I've been working on the prompts for Gruvia Week. Since I only joined the FT fandom in August last year, I didn't have the opportunity to participate, so I'm really excited for this year!

Now let's get on with the chapter. Happy reading!

Last Kiss-Pearl Jam

I held her close I kissed her - our last kiss

I found the love that I knew I had miss

Well now she's gone even though I hold her tight

I lost my love, my life that night

November 15th, X374…

It was a warm, sunny day. Supposedly just another beautiful summer day, but not for him. He walked along the beautiful grass field, looking towards the blue sky with the saddest expression on his face. He hated it. From a very young age he had always preferred the rain, it brought him comfort and reminded him of the most important person in his life. Or at least she had been, so long ago.

"I wasn't expecting you to come." He turned around to face the man with blue hair and dark green eyes. His appearance was very different from the last time they had met and a new name accompanied him now: Acnologia.

"Neither was I." The other man replied, shrugging. A pale hand removed the large coat he wore, it was too hot for it. "But I knew that I had to see it for myself."

"Is that the only reason why you're here, Zeref?" Acnologia asked, looking curious.

"I want to know where she is." Zeref got right to the point.

"Of course you do." The other man sighed and shook his head.

"So?" The dark wizard raised a brow, waiting.

"It's none of your business." Anger crossed Zeref's face.

"You have no right to hide this from me! She is…" Acnologia didn't let him finish.

"You don't need to remind me." There was sadness in his tone, but it was hard to tell if it was true.

"Why did you hide her body for all these years?" Zeref finally asked the question that had plagued his mind for over a decade.

"I think you already know why." His eyes widened once he realized it and he shook his head.

"You're unbelievable." The other man looked away.

"I should be going. Have work to do." Zeref gave him another indignant look.

"Is that what you call it? Work?" Acnologia looked confused for a second. "I know that you're doing, Igneel has told me. I can't believe you'd stoop so low as to take innocent lives in your quest for vengeance."

"You give me that look all you want." Acnologia told him before his face turned firm. "But I have no doubt you would've done the same." Zeref shook his head once again.

"No, I would never seek vengeance. I know better than that." A pause before a sad smile came upon his face. "After all, I promised her that I would always follow my heart and it's telling me that seeking revenge against those who wronged me isn't worth it." The man laughed.

"You're talking like a fool that doesn't know anything." He told Zeref before taking a few steps until they were face to face. "But let me tell you something that life will probably teach you. Promises always end up being broken, no matter who makes them."

"I don't believe you." Zeref stepped away from him, shaking his head. "Now will you tell me where she is or do I have to find out for myself?"

"You should let it go. Holding onto the past will get you no where." The other man warned.

"Like you're one to say." Zeref scoffed.

"I have moved on. You should too." With that said, Acnologia turned around and walked away silently. Zeref watched him while wondering if his own future would be as dark and empty.

Present day... ( 3 PM)

After the four groups arranged by Makarov left for the former Council members houses, Makarov gathered everyone in the guild hall so that they could begin searching for more members, leaving the infirmary empty except for the unconscious victims of Tartarus' attack, Porlyusica and Meredy.

It wasn't long, though, before Lyon showed up and he and the pinkette went to the main hall to help Fairy Tail with their task. Once they were gone, Elfman entered the infirmary and the healer left briefly to give him a few moments with his girlfriend.

"I'm sorry, Ever." He whispered while standing by her bed, eyeing the unconscious women brokenly. "I should've been there, should've protected you." He lowered his head in shame and regret. He had promised to always be by her side, to protect her even though she didn't need it. But he had failed, and now he could lose her and their child.

"I know this is though, but you have to hold on, okay?" He gently grabbed her pale hand and squeezed it. "You have to be strong, for the baby." He placed his other hand on her stomach momentarily and a smile crossed his face as he recalled the moment she had told him that he was going to be a father.

Truth be told, he wasn't ready. Not even close. After having just turned 19, the idea of children was far from his mind. However, he couldn't deny that a future with Evergreen as a family didn't sound so bad. They were happy together, despite what it might seem like because of their constant fighting. But that was just the way they worked, he would make mistakes because he had never been in a long lasting relationship and she would point them out and teach him how to do it right.

For 5 months they had been together and he'd be lying if he said that he wasn't happy. Their relationship might be a bit complicated, but things were fine. When she told him that she was pregnant a few days before, he had felt nothing but happiness once the shock wore off. He had known it, then. They were going to become a family and everything would be okay.

"I'll do whatever it takes to make you well." He vowed before gently kissing the hand that he was holding. "Both of you. You can count on me." His moment was interrupted by the sound of the door opening and Lisanna's voice was heard.

"Hey, I'm sorry for interrupting." She softly told him and he turned around to face her, a reassuring look on his face.

"It's okay, Lis." He looked back to his girlfriend, sensing he'd need to leave her.

"Master called for us." Lisanna said, confirming his thoughts. He nodded briefly before letting go of Evergreen's hand and standing up.

"Let's go." A worried look suddenly came upon her face.

"She'll be okay, won't she?" He didn't have an answer to that, so Elfman said nothing as he walked away from the bed and towards the door, walking past her. Lisanna stood there for a few moments, staring at Evergreen's unconscious form before she too turned around and left, closing the door behind her.

"Elfman, I'm sorry for calling you so soon, but we need your help." Makarov said once he met with the two Strauss siblings.

"I understand." Elfman replied shortly.

"What do you need us for, master?" Lisanna curiously asked and Makarov grimaced.

"I know you probably wish to stay here with Evergreen, but we have an emergency." Both stared at him in confusion, so he clarified. "Warren just found another council member's house, Yuri. He was very influential, meaning it's likely that Tartarus will attack him next."

"Why do you need to send Elfman and Lisanna?" Cana asked, having overheard the conversation. There was nervousness in her tone and she glanced towards Lisanna pointedly.

"We've already sent our best teams to other houses. Only Erza and Mira remain, but I'll wait until we have more information before sending them anywhere." Makarov paused before looking between the two siblings. "I wouldn't ask this of you two if it wasn't absolutely necessary." Seeing how urgent it was, Elfman nodded.

"I guess we don't have a choice, then." He sighed.

"Are you sure about this?" Lisanna asked, worried for her brother.

"Yes, I'll do what I can to protect Fairy Tail." He paused as a smirk came upon his face. "Who knows, maybe I'll run into the jerk who hurt Ever so that I can make him pay."

"Be careful, you two. These demons are incredibly powerful and dangerous." Both nodded.

"We can take them!" Lisanna said, also smirking. Cana sent her a panicky look.

"Before you go, I need to talk to you." Her tone was firm, so the white haired girl knew it was serious.

"Okay." She replied and Makarov looked between them firmly.

"Make it fast, okay? You need to reach Yuri's house as soon as possible." The two girls nodded before they left towards the back of the guild. As he watched them, Elfman couldn't help but wonder what that was about. He had noticed Cana and Lisanna's constant interactions since the day of the wedding, but hadn't thought much of it, believing the two friends might have grown closer and that's why they were spending more time together.

If only it was that simple.

Fairy Tail, at the infirmary…4 PM

Mirajane was glad that the room was empty, with the exception of the four unconscious mages. She wouldn't want anyone to see her when she had no reason to be there. After all, her relationship to any of them was superficial, as far as anyone knew.

Freed and Evergreen were close friends, but not enough for her to feel the need to see them. Maybe people would just take her for the same old Mira, the kind woman who loved everyone and treated them all like family. It wasn't a lie, she did do that. Only that wasn't the reason why she was there.

"I should have known that you were going to get yourself in trouble." She whispered once she reached his bed. "You can never stay away, can you?" Laxus didn't reply, though another pained groan was heard. Mira sat down on the chair by his bedside and watched him, pain and sorrow clear on her face.

"I didn't want you to get hurt, but I should've known this would happen." She bit her lip, attempting to stop the tears. "You are always trying to prove yourself, wanting everyone else to know that you aren't the same person who started the battle of Fairy Tail." She shook her head.

"I don't know why you still feel like no one can see how far you've come. But then again, maybe I haven't given you much reason to think that. " There was a pause as her mind was overwhelmed by memories of two days before and the conversation they had. His confession. Her rejection. The heartbreak.

"I wish things were simple, but they aren't anymore." This time she was unable to stop the tears. "I'm so sorry, Laxus. I never meant to break your heart, but I needed to protect you." Her mind played his words for the millionth time. I love you. He had said it so simply, so easily and Mirajane had envied him. It didn't seem like he had struggled with his feelings, at least not as much as she had.

For so long she had been hoping to get enough courage to tell him how she truly felt, but once she finally did, it was too late. There was no point in telling him anymore when all it would do is give them false hope.

She couldn't stay there anymore, seeing his broken body only served to increase the guilt she felt. Because no matter who had attacked him, she had ruined his life the moment she rejected his confession.

After standing up, Mira gave him one last look and she knew that she needed to tell him the truth, even if he couldn't hear it. It was her only chance, so she took it. "I love you too. Please, be okay." With that said, she turned around and took a few moments to recompose herself before leaving him behind once again.

As Mirajane arrived back into the guild hall, Master Makarov approached her before revealing everything that he has just learned from Natsu and Lucy. He explained the situation with Tartarus weapon, their plan to eliminate the three council members who had created Face and how the former Chairman was the only one who knew about it, so he would be a priority target for the demons.

"So you want me to go after him?" Mira asked after she took some time to take in all this information that the guild had received from Natsu's team a while ago.

"Yes. You and Erza." She nodded.

"Very well, then. No time to lose." She looked around the guild, searching for the red head.

"She's with Lyon and Meredy." Makarov told her pointing towards the right corner of the guild. "Since Jellal was also a former member, she fears he might be involved in Face's creation, so she decided to ask Meredy about it."

"I'll wait for her outside, then." Mira told him before turning around and going outside. Before she could reach the exit of the guild, though, she was stopped by Porlyusica.

"You shouldn't go." The healer warned and she sighed.

"I don't have a choice. This is more important." Bright blue eyes stared determinedly at the older woman.

"I know." Porlyusica nodded. "That's why I won't stop you. But you need to be careful."

"I'll be fine." The healer raised a brow and Mirajane cursed herself for sounding so unsure. She couldn't think about that now, there were many people in danger and helping them was more important. So she said goodbye to Porlyusica before opening the door and sitting by the steps leading to the guild's entrance while she awaited for Erza.

With Erza…

"Are you sure that Jellal never mentioned it?" She asked Meredy after explaining the situation with Face.

"No, he didn't like talking about his time working for the council." The pinkette replied, an uncomfortable look on her face.

"Are you sure you're okay?" Lyon asked, ever worried.

"This situation must be really stressing for you." Erza said, giving her a sympathetic look.

"I'm so worried about him." Meredy admitted and the red head nodded.

"Me too. But I always tell myself that at long as he hasn't been caught, he'll be alright." The pinkette sighed.

"We weren't caught for six years, but he wasn't alright." A small smile came upon her face. "That is, until he found out that you were still alive."

"I can only imagine how difficult it was for all of you, the past seven years." Erza looked between her and Lyon.

"I'm more worried about what's going to happen now." The latter admitted.

"So am I." The red head sighed. "This war is different from the other battles we had. The stakes are higher." Lyon nodded.

"If we fail to stop Tartarus, all magic will be gone. Can you imagine a world without it?" To tell the truth, Erza could imagine it. She had seen it during her brief trip to Edolas, but this was different. The lack of magic didn't cause all wizards to die like it would in this world.

"Speaking of stopping Tartarus, I should get going." Erza told them, remembering that she was supposed to leave with Mira for the former Chairman's house.

"Be careful, Erza. If something happens to you, it will break him." She knew that Meredy was right, so she nodded.

"I will. And you…" She turned to the ice mage. "Keep Meredy safe. If anything happens to her, I promise that I will hunt you down and…" He didn't let her finish.

"There's no need for threats; I already got my fair share from Gray, Juvia and Jellal. She'll be safe." Erza nodded before saying her goodbyes. As she joined Mira outside and they began the journey to the Chairman's house, her mind was focused on Jellal. She remembered the last time that they had seen each other and couldn't help but wonder if she would ever see him again.

Over 3 weeks before…

Erza and Jellal followed the path hidden amongst the trees leading towards the beach, holding hands while they caught up on what happened during the time they had been apart. He told her the details of his research on Tartarus while she filled him in on everything that was happening with Fairy Tail.

Once they reached their destination, the couple stopped in front of the grave as sad smiles came upon their faces.

"This truly is the perfect place." Jellal commented while staring at Ultear's tombstone.

"Yes, I recall you mentioning how Ultear loved the sea because it reminded her of her mother." Erza said, looking towards the second grave that Gray and Lyon had built for their master.

"It's hard to believe that she's gone." He admitted, a faraway look upon his face as he remembered times shared with the time mage.

"It truly is. I didn't even have time to get to know her." The red head told him and he smiled.

"I don't know how that would've worked out." Seeing his expression, she raised a brow in confusion.

"Why do I get the feeling you don't think it would have" Jellal gave her an apologizing look.

"Ultear was a…complicated woman." He paused and she crossed her arms and stared at him, waiting for an explanation. "I'm not saying she hated you, but she didn't like you either."

"Why? She didn't even know me." Erza asked, even more confused.

"She saw how much I suffered because you were gone and she hated it. I know it was irrational, but she blamed you." Understanding crossed her face.

"I see. Well, I can understand that, no matter how crazy it is." A relaxed smile came upon his face once he realized that she wasn't angry.

"Then I guess you might've become the best of friends." He suggested and Erza shook her head.

"Now you're going too far." Jellal laughed for a few moments before his face turned to determined.

"Maybe I am. But even if she didn't accept you, it wouldn't matter to me." He wrapped his arms around her waist, bringing her closer. "Because I love you and nothing can change that." She smiled while her hands settled on his shoulders.

"Good. I love you too." They leaned in for a powerful kiss that was interrupted too soon by the arrival of Gray, Juvia and Meredy by the grave.

Later, as Erza thought about this conversation, she had no doubt that, had Ultear remained alive, their relationship would've grown. Because despite any dislike they might feel towards each other, there was a common interest that joined them together: Jellal. His happiness was important for both of them, so they would've worked together to make sure he was alright.

In the small village of Caracas… 5 PM

"Yep, she's dead." Gajeel whispered while staring at the body on the floor.

"We should have seen this one coming." Gray commented, voice a bit shaky. They had arrived a few minutes before and the sight that awaited them was truly gruesome. Houses torn down, streets stained with blood and the bodies of the villagers. An entire city put to death for no reason.

"It's so awful!" Juvia whispered and he gave her a worried look. He could tell her that seeing this broken city reminded her of their own hometown and it was clear this had her shaken.

"I know." He sighed before approaching her and wrapping his arms around her in a comforting embrace.

"We should contact the others." Gajeel said after watching them for a few moments.

"Yes, we should." Juvia attempted to dry her tears so as not to worry her comrades.

"Maybe we should take another look, see if we can find any survivors." The dragon slayer continued.

"You should go." Gray agreed, but he knew that Juvia was in no condition to do that.

"No, we should all stick together. What if something happens?" Juvia looked between the two men, clearly worried.

"You shouldn't worry about me." Gajeel reassured her.

"Do you actually think she's going to let you go out there alone?" Gray raised a brow in his direction.

"Levy would kill me if I did." That was enough to make the dragon slayer change his mind. He couldn't risk it, not when Levy was counting on him to come back to her.

"True. So let's contact the guild, then." Juvia nodded before picking the communication lacrima from her bag. Before she could turn it on, though, she froze. They all froze as they sensed the presence.

"Someone's here." Gajeel whispered, getting into a defensive position. Gray approached Juvia until he was standing between her and the door while she placed the lacrima on the table and turned around.

"Get ready." He whispered and she nodded.

"Show yourself!" Gajeel said a few minutes later when there was no movement. No answer came, but suddenly, his body dropped.

"Gajeel!" Juvia started running in his direction, but stopped once she heard the sound of another body hitting the ground. Upon turning around, her face paled once she spotted her unconscious boyfriend. "No." She ran back towards Gray and lifted him into her arms.

"Please, wake up." Nothing. He remained unmoving. "Please.." Tears fell down her cheeks once again and she coughed as breathing suddenly became difficult. Another panic attack. Now this was the last thing she needed.

"I ask you to try to calm yourself. The last thing I need is for you to pass out when we have matters to discuss." Her body froze upon hearing the familiar voice. She looked around the room wildly until she spotted him standing by the open wardrobe. A small tree was placed on a vase near it, but it's leaves had turned to brown.

"You." Her face paled and he smiled.

"It's been a long time, Juvia Lockser." Black eyes stared at her curiously and she tried to sustain his gaze despite the overwhelming fear that his presence brought. The room temperature seemed to have dropped and she could feel death surrounding her. Was this the end?

With Elfman and Lisanna…

"What the hell just happened?" Elfman yelled once the body of the council member, Yuri, dropped to the floor once again. Only a few seconds ago the corpse had mysteriously arisen and used his magic to eliminate the communication lacrima in Lisanna's hands.

"I don't know." Lisanna replied, suddenly feeling chills down her spine. They could sense another presence in the room even before they heard her voice.

"I tried to make him look convincing, but a corpse is a corpse." They suspiciously eyed the strange woman with long black hair and golden horns as she sat by the desk.

"Who are you?" Elfman asked, narrowing his eyes in anger.

"Tell us what you did to Master Yuri, now!" Lisanna commanded and he cast her a warning glance.

"The old man already had one leg in the netherworld, I merely helped him along." The woman replied before sighing. They watched her while keeping their guard up and somehow Elfman had a feeling that he knew her somehow. But that was impossible, right?

"And stayed around to play with his corpse?" He asked, trying to ignore how loud his heart was beating.

"Corpses can be quite useful." She stood up and a sinister smile was on her face. "After all, the dead don't talk or fight back, so controlling them is quite easy."

"Lisanna, are you ready?" Elfman asked and the youngest Strauss nodded, though her mind wasn't in the moment.

"Yes." The next thing he knew, somehow his hand was wrapped around her throat and his eyes widened.

"Elfman, what are you doing?" Lisanna asked, trying to remove it.

"This isn't me." He panicked once his hand wouldn't respond. "I'm sorry, I can't control it."

"This is interesting." The woman took a few steps in their direction. "I waited for so long to get my revenge on you, but this is going better than I thought."

"Revenge?" Lisanna asked, struggling to breathe.

"We don't even know you!" Elfman yelled, though the feeling of familiarity didn't go away. He definitely knew her from somewhere, but where?

"Maybe." The woman replied. "But I certainly know you." A portrait suddenly appeared in her hand. Both siblings stared at it with widened eyes. There was a couple in the photograph, both familiar to them although it had been ages since they had last seen them. A man with short white hair, small dark blue eyes and tanned skin had an arm wrapped around a woman with long white hair, bright blue eyes and creamy skin. Both were smiling and the woman wore a beautiful white gown, signaling that it was their wedding day.

Their names were Victor and Lydia Strauss and they were Elfman, Lisanna and Mirajane's parents.

"How did you get that picture?" Lisanna asked, confused and afraid. Her voice came out shaky since she was still unable to breathe.

"I've had it for a long time." The woman smiled once again. "19 years to be exact." Elfman's face paled as he suddenly realized what she was referring to. He remembered the date like it had been yesterday, July 7th of X772. The day his father died. Or rather, he was murdered.

"You killed our father." Elfman whispered and Lisanna stared at him, mouth open in shock. She was about to ask him what he meant, but breathing was hard enough. She pulled at his hand, trying once again to remove it from her throat, but it was no use. Her vision darkened and she coughed a few times before her body fell forward, taking Elfman by surprise. "No, Lisanna!" He held her to his chest as he dropped to his knees, unable to hold himself anymore.

"So you do remember." The woman said, making him look at her. "Interesting."

"What the hell do you want?" Elfman asked, starting to get desperate. If this truly was the monster that had killed their father, then they were in big trouble. He didn't know if he'd be able to protect Lisanna.

"Like I said, I'm seeking revenge." The woman told him, taking more steps until she was standing right in front of him. "I believe watching you kill your sister will be enough."

"Why? What did I do?" He asked, suddenly confused.

"There's been enough talking." He found himself standing up with Lisanna still in his arms and walking towards the table. He attempted to fight it off, but it was no use, her magic was just too powerful.

"No." His face lost all color once he spotted the large knife by the table where he placed his sister.

"Now, you may begin." The woman whispered and he swallowed hard, hating how his hand obeyed her command and suddenly he was holding the knife and lifting it over Lisanna's body.

"Please. Don't do this." The demon said nothing, but she didn't have to. As much as he tried to resist, he wasn't strong enough. He hated not being able to protect Lisanna.

Memories of the day he thought he had killed her came to mind and Elfman screamed in agony.

Back with Juvia...

She glanced towards the communication lacrima, but as if reading her thoughts, Zeref spoke. "I wouldn't if I were you."

"What do you want?" Her voice shook with fear.

"I think you know." He took a few steps towards her. "After all, I am well aware that your memories have returned."

"Of course you are." Juvia muttered.

"Nothing escapes my knowledge." He replied before glancing towards the unconscious man in her arms. "Like your relationship with him."

"Leave him alone!" She yelled, tightening her grip on Gray and pressing him against her chest.

"I have no reason to harm him." Zeref said, stopping. "That is, if you cooperate." Juvia glanced towards her boyfriend, heart beating faster. She couldn't let anything happen to him, but the price to be paid for aiding Zeref was much too high. So many people would get hurt if his plan succeeded and she would lose everything.

"No." The dark wizard looked surprised by her response. "I won't help you."

"Is that so?" Zeref raised a brow. She waited for him to move or attack her, but he didn't. However, she could feel warm liquid staining her coat. After removing Gray's body from her chest, her eyes widened in horror upon noticing that blood was suddenly coloring his grey shirt.

"No." She looked back at Zeref in disbelief. "Stop it."

"Why should I?" Gray's face was getting paler as more blood filled his shirt. She could feel his breaths slowing down and knew that he wouldn't hold on for long.

"No, please." More tears fell as she touched his cold face. "I can't lose you."

"You don't have to." Zeref said, crossing his arms. "All you need to do is follow me and he will remain unharmed."

"Why should I believe you?" She yelled, pressing her hands against Gray's chest in order to stop the bleeding. It was no use.

"You'll have to make a choice. Let him die or save him." Juvia knew it, then. It didn't matter the stakes or how many people might get hurt, she would always put Gray first. He was the love of her life and she wasn't strong enough to watch him die when she could save him.

After all, she knew how Zeref worked. He wasn't like other ruthless villains she had encountered over the years; he kept his promises. He had let her go after she failed to become E.N.D. He hadn't killed Meredy back on Tenrou Island, just as she had begged him not to. He wouldn't kill Gray now because there was no reason to do so.

She was the one he wanted. If Juvia tried fighting against him, she would only cause the two most important people in her life to be killed. The best option for them was for her to do as Zeref asked and pray that her friends would find a way to save her.

"Okay." She sighed, hating herself for what she was about to do. She looked back at her boyfriend and gently ran her fingers through his hair before kissing his forehead. "I'll go with you, as long as you promise me that he won't be harmed." Zeref nodded.

"I promise." So she stood up, letting Gray's body rest on the floor. Much to her relief, the stains of blood on his chest disappeared and his breathing returned to normal. He still didn't wake up, though. She was glad for it. Juvia knew he wouldn't agree with her decision because it went against the promise that they had made each other long ago.

A few months before...

"I guess you have a point. We can't know the future, so we can't know what awaits us. We need to have faith that everything will be okay." Gray knew it was right and cursed himself from not thinking it before. It was hard to be positive when so many horrible things happened in your life.

"Exactly." Juvia gave him a short kiss and once she pulled apart, they were back to smiling at each other.

"But I want you to promise me that you'll be careful." He looked at her with concern, his tone more serious than ever. Juvia knew that he needed that promise, that it would ease his worries.

"I do. As long as you do the same. No more being reckless." She pointedly said and Gray nodded before bringing her closer so she could lie on top of him once again.

"No more being reckless. I promise." He said before kissing the top of her head. And they had kept that promise for a long time, but not all vows can remain unbroken forever. (flashbacks from chapter 11 of Connections)

"I'm sorry." Juvia looked back for a moment before taking Zeref's extended arm. Within seconds they had disappeared and the first step for Carla's predictions to come true was completed.

So, what did you think?

Miraxus and ElfEver fans, did you enjoy their scenes? There will be more as the story progresses, but I can't promise they'll be happy ones.

What about the Jerza flashback? If you're a fan of these two, this is the right story for you. That is, if you adore drama and heartbreak.

Onto more important matters, what do you make or Zeref and Acnologia's flashbacks? Who is the body he was searching for?

And lastly, what did you think of Juvia's decisions to go with Zeref, thus placing everyone in danger? Will Fairy Tail manage to stop him from turning her into E.N.D?

Next chapter: Never Forgive Yourself

Summary: Things take a turn for the worse when Seilah forces Elfman to hurt Lisanna and Mirajane is captured. More secrets about their parents are revealed, but the Strauss siblings don't have time to understand them before Elfman is sent back to Fairy Tail. Meanwhile, Oracion Seis finally make their move against Tartarus. Will everyone make it out alive?

I'll give you a little SPOILER: It will include the first death of this story. Are you ready?

Can we try 4 reviews by the 24th of March?
