Natsu ran down the hall until he found Lucy and Wendy but no Soul.
"Hey, you guys see anyone or thing come down here?" Natsu asked.
"No, we've been walking here for hours and we didn't even find a door." Lucy said.
"I'm sure Soul came this way and his friend."
"Someone else is here?" Wendy said.
"Well its more of a monster." Natsu said still looking around for Soul.
"Monster!?" Lucy shouted.
Immediately, the Shadow creature appeared behind them.
"There it is." Natus said pointing behind the two. They slowly turned their heads and saw it. The creature gave a shriek and Lucy and Wendy darted back to Main Hall the creature completely ignoring Natsu ran past him and continued chasing the girls. Natsu then ran after it feeling left out of it even though he had a chance and utterly failed. Happy and Gray were the first to see Lucy and Wendy run into the hall.
"Lucy! Wendy! Did you find Kireba?" Happy asked.
"No, but something found us." Lucy said Pointing to the shadow creature that was chasing them.
"Open! Gate of the Golden Bull, Taurus!" Lucy called with his key in hand. Taurus appeared axe in hand. When her looked at what he was up against it seemed invisible.
"Lucy, what am I looking at?" He asked looking back at her.
"What do you mean? That shadow creature thing." Lucy pointed towards the hall with the monster. Natsu started running down the hall and ran though the creature itself.
"What? Natsu, you just ran through the thing."
"Well it's not paying attention to me either. Hello?" Natsu commented waving his hands in front of it.
"It must be the work of an illusion." Erza said noticing the one she was up against wouldn't enter the hall and neither would Lucy's.
"Then someone or thing must be the center point of the illusion. If they enter, they'll fade." Carla determined.
"Then we'll have to break away this place and find this center point." Natsu said already on it starting with the walls and climbing to the ceiling.
"Natsu be careful up there! We're still down here!" Lucy yelled to him.
"Don't worry, I'm coming down anyway." He said plummeting to the ground and breaking through it with his fist only to have a shadowy fist punch him in the face. Soul turned from what seemed like either an a tempt to cut someone or throw them against a wall. As they looked closer, they could see clumps of blue hair on the ground and someone with blue hair being held by the collar of her shirt. It was Kireba.
