I do not own Fairy tail Hiro mashima does
Still in Natsu's point of view I think its most appropriate for this part, enjoy.
It's a good thing Lucy went through the trouble of adding some fireproofing enchantments to her house and her stuff, otherwise in my rage I would have probably burned Magnolia to the ground with my flames of emotion. As I began to calm down I heard a knock at the door, then a muffled yelp of pain as someone tried to fiddle with the still white hot doorknob. I couldn't move to get it I was immobilized by tremors raging through my body as rivers of tears flooded the floor around me.
A hiss was heard as the doorknob evaporated the water used to cool it, and Erza stormed in with her fire empress armor holding the weapon that usually accompanied her sea empress armor. I lay on the ground drowning in tears, the offending note clenched in my hand, fireproofed by the bastard who left it there, a small puddle of melted silver mixed with slag from rubies sputtered on the floor. My whole world was tumbling down.
It took Erza, Gray, Gajeel, Levy, Jet, Droy, Happy, Laxus, Gildarts, Doragon, Feleis, Orao, Loke, Lissana, Mira in her she-demon sitri form, Elfman, Juvia, Wendy, Lily at full size, Macao, Romeo, Cana, Reedus, and even Gramps to drag me back to the guild. I wanted so badly to follow the horrid scent of the bastard Mard Geer and tear him and his book to shreds.
After I had calmed down Gramps asked me to tell him what happened. I handed him the crinkled note, and then proceeded to help the whole guild prevent him from running after the leader of Tartaros. Gildarts had to knock him out when gramps had another idea and started to cast Fairy law, which would have been a grievous misuse of the spell's power. Eventually the guild pressured me into reading it aloud, I proceeded to open the note and read it again. There was a long silence that followed
Doragon was the first to speak up. Strangely calm and wise far beyond his years, causing us to doubt the age he told us. I didn't hear him the first time so I asked him to repeat it, Erza summarized it for me.
"In a nutshell he said that we need to stay calm as storming off blindly would get everyone killed," Erza said.
"Hey Natsu," Doragon said, I looked up at his face tears beginning to fall from my mine, "I can still sense her magic; she is alive. we might be able to get her back but you need to stay calm and tell me about Mard Geer and his abilities."
I told him everything I knew from my previous fight with Geer. The whole time fighting back the urge to fall to my knees and cry. When I finished he smiled at me and began to speak.
"One thing is for certain, the rest of Tartaros is most certainly not back. He may plan to use Lucy as a sacrifice to revive his comrades," He said calmly.
"How do you know?"
"Because otherwise he would have killed her then and there, maybe even nailed Lucy to her wall. This isn't just for Vengeance against you, but everyone else as well."
I gained hope from what he said, and slowly I began to realize he was much stronger than I thought, he not only had strength in combat, but he had the strength to stay calm in this turmoil.
"Alright Natsu," Doragon said suddenly, "How about we congratulate Mard Geer for his most prestigious accomplishment."
"And what would that be?"
"Making the biggest mistake ever made of course!" Doragon said with a laugh. As he said this I sensed power surge and a portal opened to his left. He waved Erza, Feleis, Gajeel, and Levy over.
"After you Natsu Dragneel!" With a nod I stepped into the portal Feleis right behind me, If Mard Geer could see this group he would be shaking in his boots.
Stepping from the portal into a dark misty forest I smelled a familiar and unpleasant scent. Mard Geer was close, and dried blood accompanied the demon. Peering through the bushes he saw Lucy tied to a tree, a small blood soaked spot on her top, on her left side just above the hip. Mard Geer sat across a small clearing from her. Devouring a rather large meat shank. Doragon jumped into a nearby tree, landing with so little noise even I could barely register it. The rest of us were still peaking through the bushes.
Suddenly Doragon jumped down in front of Mard Geer, and the fight was on. Levy and Gajeel untied Lucy while Doragon, Feleis, Erza, and I confronted Geer. As the fight began I noticed something strange, Geer was far mor powerful than before, his thorns had trapped Feleis rather rapidly, she managed to escape only to be trapped with several more. Erza hacked her way toward the trapped woman, meanwhile Doragon was up close and personal with Geer, and I was doing my best not to get impaled. The minutes ticked by and we still gained no ground, Doragon showed signs of tiring, and Geer would not let up. We were in a one sided fight, and it only got worse from there. I fell prey to Geer's thorny vines, snagging my hand and wrapping me in thistles. My flames were ineffective, the only thing keeping Geer from taking my life was Doragon. Doragon's sword was able to pierce the defenses enough to keep Geer from doing too much harm.
"You know this has been fun, but I think it's time I killed you all and left!" Geer hissed, without warning we heard the tearing of flesh, as a large sharp thorn entered Doragon's chest, right through his heart. He dropped dead on the spot, and all hope was lost, at least I knew that Levy and Gajeel had gotten Lucy out, my world began to go black from blood loss. Is this it, am I dead? I could hear Geer's laughter correcting my thoughts, but something else reached my ear, the shuffling of feet.
"I am so happy! With most of the guild's strongest mages here dying I won't be able to be stopped as I march through Magnolia to fairy tail!" Mard Geer cackled.
"Don't count your chickens before they hatch, you stinking patch of weeds!" Doragon said, and his sword could be heard as it chopped Geer's head clean off.
I woke up in the Fairy tail infirmary, Lucy holding my hand, and happy fast asleep on her lap.
"Hey you," Lucy said as she leaned down to kiss my forehead, "I'm glad you're awake. After Erza managed to drag you and Doragon back to the guild, I was worried you were gone." Tears formed in Lucy's eyes, I wiped them away
"It takes more than one rogue demon to kill me, lucy," I whispered, I looked to my left and saw Doragon, sitting up with his family, "Doragon, if you don't mind my asking, how were you alive and able to decapitate Geer?"
"well… You have probably noticed my wings and tail by now, haven't you," Doragon said I nodded, "that's not the only thing separating me anatomically from humans, I have two hearts so I could survive off of one and kill Geer."
"Well now that that is over maybe the guild can have a peaceful time for once?" Lucy asked.
"I would not call it over just yet, somethings bothering me," Doragon said scratching his chin, his green eyes lost in thought.
"Well spill it!" I asked.
"I don't think Geer was working solo, something or someone else is at work here."
That got me worried, but I decided it could wait for now, As my aches and stings forced my back to a reclining position, I closed my eyes and began to sleep.
