Disclaimer: Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. I don't o-w-n Fairy Tail.

I'm replying to a Guest. And I'm saying this because if this bothers you, stop reading my story. Just thought that I'd warn you, that I can be incredibly mean when I want to, and you were mean to me. You were also rude to my friend PoisonedNightshade and that pissed me off. If you hate things like Lucy and Erza, then not my business, or if you don't like NaLu, I don't care. As long as you take your hatred and go somewhere else, because screw you if you just want to go and read peoples stories and tell them how bad characters that we don't even own are. Have a complaint? Go straight to Hiro M. Good luck convincing him not to sail the NaLu ship, or kill Erza and Lucy.

Ahem. Boo! Keep your reviews to yourself if that is what you are going to say!

Forgive me those of you who I was not replying to. I get touchy about my favorite anime's, and best friends. Thank you, and I hope you enjoy the story, this is for all of you who told me to update.

Thank you for telling me that. Because if not, I would have forgotten. HOW COULD I FORGET!?

"Where have you been?"

"Only out to do sightseeing. Magnolia is a splendid town my Lord Dragneel." Messenger bowed to Zeref, a grin itching itself onto his face.

"I haven't really visited it..." Zeref murmured. "I really do want to..."

Zeref sighed.

"You will eventually, my lord."

"Oh...?" Zeref inquired, raising his eyebrow, and staring down at Messenger, who was still bowing.

Messenger chuckled. "I think that you brother, Natsu, wants to join you, My Lord Zeref."

"Mmph...h-h-he does?" Zeref asked.

"Indeed."

"No..." Zeref shook his head. "It's for the best that we don't join up. He has to kill me. Only he can...it's his duty..."

Messenger raised his head. "But my lord...you do realize he will refuse to murder you, do you not?"

Zeref rubbed his temples. "I mean...well...I figured that would probably be the case. But, he knows...I have to die before I do something...so terrible."

"My lord, he knows he is going to join-"

Zeref buried his face into his hands, and slumped in a chair.

"He wants to join."

"Why...?"

"Because, he wants to be with you."

"How could you possibly know that?" Zeref queried.

"He told me so...-" Messenger blurted before he could stop himself.

Zeref's head snapped up. "Excuse me?"

Messenger took a worried step backwards.

"No...I mean-"

"Have you been visiting Natsu...without my knowledge?!"

"I-I figured you had already known!"

"You know I have been feeling off! How could you not have told me!? I specifically told you not to visit him without my orders! Why? Because I knew that you would try to manipulate him into joining me! I can't allow that to happen! He has to kill me!" Zeref exclaimed.

Messenger bowed his head. "Pardon me...and accept my apology."

Zeref's chest heaved up, and down, his hands shaking, then he sighed. "Fine. But your plans have already failed. I must not speak to...to..." Zeref's lip quivered, and his eyes watered. "...to Natsu ever again...he must kill me..."

Messenger didn't mean to, but he started chuckling.

Zeref cocked his head, a glare coming to his eyes. "What is so funny?"

"You must never see him again? Heh...that's gonna be a little difficult. So, Zeref, tell me, do you love your brother?"

Zeref was a little taken back, but answered truthfully. "O-of course."

"Then...your going to be distraught to know that he is in the hands of an enemy at the moment." Messenger explained.

"What!?"

"Yes," Messenger closed his eyes. "see, Natsu Dragneel was kidnapped. He's suffering. And only you can save him, my lord."

"H-how...could...you..." Zeref squeezed his eyes tight. "You tricked him!? Now he's alone and suffering!? And you tricked me!?"

"It was all a trap, my lord. You should know this better then anyone, that I want to serve by your side...by Zeref Dragneel's side, and Natsu Dragneel, E.N.D. And that was my plan. Now you must go and save him, and you will be basically forced into joining-"

"YOU BASTARD!" Zeref shouted, ringing Messenger's eardrums. "STOP YOUR MONOLOGUING RIGHT THIS INSTANT! YOU ARE A DISGRACE! AND I AM ASHAMED TO HAVE YOU AS A DEMON MESSENGER!"

Zeref closed his eyes again. "I cannot believe I would trust you. All you have done is be a nat! You are a fool to pronounce what you have done directly in front of me!"

Messenger took a step back. What he did was in fact stupid. But he felt as if he needed to tell Zeref, so he would join with Natsu. That was his soul plan. Although he did want to be with them, he purpose was to bring them together so they could work as the Dragneel brothers.

"My lord-"

"SCREW YOU SON OF A BITCH!"

"Son of a Bitch, eh?" Messenger laughed. "Then you're the father, Master Zeref! HAHAHA! Who's the bitch?! You! Haha-ack!"

Zeref grabbed Messenger's neck, and started squeezing it. "You deserve what you have coming to you."

Zeref opened his eyes, which were revealed to be red.

"This was maybe one of worst plans..." Messenger mumbled to myself. "...making the master angry...not a good thing. How daft am I?"

"So...?" Erza asked, as Levy lifted her head up.

"Well..." Levy took a deep breath. "He's certainly not in Magnolia. I looked in this, and it seems that someone has used tracker magic-"

"Sort of like what Meredy used?" Erza questioned.

"Indeed. And it seems that they accidentally left traces. If you take a look in this lacrima, you notice that there's traces of our Fire Dragon Slayer in Magnolia, Hargeon, Era, Oak and Clover town, and a large amount in Shirtotsume town. Of course, and unfortunately, the trail starts leading away from Shirtotsume, and goes off somewhere else. So it seems that Natsu was dragged through tons of towns, which means he's a long way away from Magnolia, but what's strange is that it looks like they went in a circle, because Shirotsume is close to Magnolia, but then it leads away. The trail stops here, in these mountains. So maybe we should send a few teams out to investigate the towns with the most traces, and someone to the mountains." Levy suggested.

"Why are we waiting around! Let's go find Natsu!" Happy declared.

"We need to pair teams." Erza said.

"I think that we need a few people here too." Lucy added.

"Would you volunteer to stay?" Someone asked Lucy.

Lucy shook head head. "No way! I'm going to find Natsu!"

"Lovebird..." Someone muttered.

Lucy's face turned red. "Am not!"

"Alright! Alright..." Jellal sighed. "May I have the pleasure of choosing those who should come?"

"Very well..."

"Good, we shall take different teams. Gajeel Redfox, Pantherlily, Levy McGarden, Jet, Droy, and Max Alors, you will investigate The Oak Town. Wendy Marvell, Carla, Mirajane Strauss, Lisanna Strauss and Elfman Strauss go to Hargeon and investigate there."

"Right." Wendy said, and listened again.

"The mages to investigate Era are Romeo and Macao Conbolt Bisca, Alzack and Asuka Conell." Jellal said. "Meredy, Macbeth, Sawyer, Erik, Richard, Sorano, you go to Shirotsume. And finally, Erza Scarlet, Gray Fullbuster, Lucy Heartfilia, Happy, and myself, will go and search in the mountains."

"Aye!" Happy agreed.

And so, they went off. To find their lost guild mate.
