"CHARGE!"
The three of us charged at our clones in front of us. They all stepped back away from us.
We all stood staring at each other in silence. Sweat started to appear on my forehead.
'What are they planning?!'
"Well since no one's attacking I guess I'll make the first move!", Laxus yelled out as he jumped in the air and raised his hands.
"LIGHTNING STRIKE!"
Three bolts of lightning came crashing down. They were headed for our clones but they already expected him to attack.
Ice also known as Gray's clone jumped in front of the lightning and placed his hands on the ground.
"ICE WALL!"
A gigantic wall of ice rose up from the ground shielding them from the lightning.
'Damn it!'
Ice smirked, "Did you really think that was going to his us? Pathetic?!"
"Then how about THIS?!", Laxus screamed out as he charged at them with his body covered in his yellow lightning.
The three of them just stood there. They had no expression on their faces.
"What's wrong are you SCARED?!", Laxus yelled as he got closer to them.
"Nope!", Ice yelled back at Laxus as he pulled out a gigantic cannon made out of ice.
"ICE CANNON!"
The cannon fired three gigantic blocks of ice at Laxus.
"LAXUS!"
Gray cupped both of his hands and shot out a bunch of icicles at the blocks of ice. The icicles deflected the blocks of ice, keeping Laxus's path open.
"CHARGE TACKLE!"
Laxus collided with Ice making him and himself fly away from the group.
"THIS ONE'S MINE YOU GUYS TAKE CARE OF THE REST!", Laxus yelled out as him and Ice continued to fly farther and farther away from us.
'Damnit Laxus! We should've sticked together!'
"Oi! Laxus!", Gray called out but it was too late Laxus was long gone.
"Damnit!", Gray muttered under his breath.
"LIGHTNING BOMB!"
I turned my gaze towards the remaining enemies only to see a gigantic orange ball of lightning flying towards me.
'Shit!'
"LUCY!", Gray called out as he reached out to me but it was too late. I was going to get hit no matter what.
So I closed my eyes and braced for impact.
The lightning pushed me back with its impact. I was sent flying away from Gray and the enemies.
I was still in the air when I saw something yellow flash right in front of me.
ZAP!
Laxus's clone, Lightning, teleported in front of me in a split second. I didn't even see him move an inch.
'He's fast!'
"I guess you're my opponent little girl!", he said as he smirked.
"Don't underestimate me!", I said as I reached for my knife but I couldn't find it.
'Shit! Where did I leave it?!'
Lightning smirked as he smashed both of his gigantic hands on my stomach.
I grunted in pain as his attack sent me flying back down to the hard ground.
My body created a crater on the ground when I landed.
"Gak!"
His slam took a tole on my body. My body was shaking, it was really difficult to stand up.
"So what did you say about underestimating you?", he said as he smiled evilly.
"SHUT UP!", I charged at him as I pulled out my black magnum.
"Make me!", he smirked as he stood his ground.
"Let's see if you're still talking once you have a bullet in your head!"
"Yes! Lets!"
I aimed my magnum straight at his head and pulled the cold trigger.
"DIE!"

(Natsu's pov)
"Who the hell are you!", I yelled out at the masked man in front of me.
"Hahaha! You don't want to know trust me!", he replied coldly as ever.
"Why not?!", I growled
"It doesn't matter", he replied as he averted his gaze from me.
"And why the hell not?! If we're going to fight I want to see your ugly face!", I roared as I lit both of my fists on fire.
"You don't need TO!", he yelled out as he charged at me.
"Then I guess I'll have to break your stupid mask to find out!"
The both of us charged at each other.
The sunrise hovered over us giving a clear view of the battlefield.
"I will make you pay for what've you've done!"
"And what have I done exactly?"
"You made me and my comrades into these…. MONSTERS!", I yelled out as I punched him in the gut. He staggered back and grunted in pain.
"Hehehe….. you got it all wrong! I made you perfect! I gave you this power!"
"I don't want this power! I don't want any of this! I just want you dead!"
"FIRE ROAR!"
I shot a gigantic beam of smoking hot fire at him.
"There's no way you can dodge this!"
The Masked Man gathered fire on his feet and jumped away from my attack.
"What?! You can use fire too?!", I yelled while starting at the fire all over his body.
"Hehehe!... I guess that's another thing we have in common"
"Why are you saying it like it's a good thing?!"
He stood there in silence while he stared at me. I could his eyes through the holes of his mask. They were onyx colored just like mine.
"Because….. you might not know it but…. you and me are very similar"
That made my blood boil.
"You and me are nothing alike!"
I gathered all of my energy around my fists are charged at him.
"SHOWER OF FLAMING FISTS!"
I showered him with punches with my two flaming fists, but he dodged them all with ease.
'Damnit! Then how about this!'
I pulled up my right leg and kicked him in his ribs.
"Gak!", he grunted out in pain as he held his injured part of his body.
"Not so tough anymore are ya?!", I pulled up my leg again and tried to kick his mask off but he grabbed leg.
'Shit!'
"Now you've made me angry!"
He swung me around by leg making me dizzy.
"Let…..me….g-go!"
"Ok!", he chucked me across the battlefield and into a pillar of rocks.
"Ergh!"
'That one hurt!'
"You should stop resisting. It just makes it harder for me to kill you"
"Hehehe…. like you're going to kill me!", I roared as I tried to get up on my feet.
"Just give up Natsu! I know everything about you! It's pointless!"
"Guess what bud? I'm not dying until I kill you!"
"Stop being a child! Think of it like this, if you let me kill you right now, you'll be able to join your Dad in-
"DON'T YOU DARE TALK ABOUT MY DAD!"
The Masked Man froze, he didn't move an inch he just stood there in silence.
"My Dad served this country! He gave his life for this country! That's what inspired me to join the army!"
"Scum like you don't get to mention my Dad!"
"Natsu….."
"My Dad died a hero! I will follow in his footsteps!"
I aimed my punch at his mask. My gut was telling me that he was going to block it but he didn't. My right punch connected and shattered his mask. The Mask Man was so out of it. He didn't even bother to dodge.
CRACK!
Pieces of the mask flew everywhere. His face was finally exposed, now I could finally see how he looked like.
I raised my head up at him and started his face.
His red hair blew with the wind, and his onyx eyes widened as he noticed that I was staring at him.
My breath got caught in my throat. I couldn't breathe, my whole body just shut down.
I couldn't move nor talk. I was lifeless and frozen in time.
'HOW?!'
The only word that came out of my mouth was….
"Dad?..."
