A/N I'm sick, so I decided to write as I am and try to update. Ugh, the deadline for OCs is coming up soon…hurry if you want to have your OC mentioned!

Wendy: You mean I get to meet new people?

Miu: Only if people submit OCs.

Gajeel: Am I going to get to fight them?

Miu: A few…maybe.

Kotone: Why am I so bipolar? I don't understand…

Miu: All drama queens are bipolar, I would know since I am an utmost drama queen right here!

Kotone: What do you mean?

Miu: I'm Cho-Chang ya'll! Who will I have ice-cream with? *sobs* that was so sad! Poor Roxas! I haven't played that game in such a long time! I'm currently playing the original game again! (The story line for Kingdom Hearts is amazing!) I CAN'T DEFEAT STUPID RIKU! No Riku I take that back! I know you're not a bad person! I need to do a lot of leveling up…My goodness I'm tearing up right now remembering Xion. How can people laugh at that? I'm fighting back tears right now!

Kotone: (aside) what is she talking about?

Everyone: I have no idea.

Kotone had a new black coat on that was a millimeter from grazing the floor when she walked. The hood was perfect and hung low enough that its shadow would cover her eyes, but she could still see through it. Under the pitch black coat, her clothes were far from perfect. She had changed into rags that couldn't even be considered clothes. It was pulled over her in the toga fashion where it's wrapped around her and clipped over one shoulder. For the clip, she found a nice, strong stick that she drove through the tattered fabric.

Her silver hair that escaped the hood's grasp floated on the wind's breeze, giving an eerie look to her. Black cloak, tattered clothes, silver hair. Anyone who didn't know her would have thought she was a ghost.

Her amber eyes gleamed as she realized how she was so caught up with her own thoughts that she wasn't paying attention to her surroundings.

She started to sprint again, cursing her ignorance.

I should have known that wouldn't delay them long enough. That child must have sent the other dragon slayers after all, she thought to herself. Crud, this form is exhausting! I still haven't mastered how to use my powers to the fullest while in this body. Move dang it!

She looked over her shoulder, knowing it was too late to out run them. She jumped off the path and ran with all her might.

Now, Kotone may be more than excellent in speed during a battle, but that's because it's short bursts of energy. Running, on the other hand is simply not her forte, seeing as she was built for flying, not cross country.

She heard Natsu rush by like a bullet just fired from a gun, smoking as it made its way towards its target.

Kotone cursed under her breath and continued to run through the rough terrain. That is until she heard Wendy.

"Natsu!" the little girl yelled. "She noticed us and changed course! She's no longer taking the pathway!"

Kotone desperately tried to pick up her speed. They'll convince me to continue living in agony. I refuse to be persuaded!

The wind was carrying the sounds away from her, also the smell.

Erza and the others were going by Wendy's directions. Wendy inhaled a huge breath that had her lungs screaming in protest. "I can taste her…she's not that far ahead of us!"

Lucy, who was being carried by Grey, said, "It's a good thing that the wind is blowing in our favor, or else we would have never caught up to her."

"It's a good thing she's not used to suppressing her enormous power by will, or else never would have caught up to her," Wendy replied.

Erza glance over at Wendy, who was still being carried by Gajeel, and asked, "Is her power really that impressive?"

"Tch!" Gajeel replied, "I could defeat that good for nothing coward!"

Wendy, ignoring Gajeel, said, "I don't know Erza, I've never seen her fight without her bandages before. She was impressive with the bandages. She's obviously inhuman without the bandages to have defeated all of you guys without breaking a sweat. When I saw her as a dragon, I'll admit it was a little tough to breathe with all that magic power still in the air."

Erza's frown deepened. Her brow knit together as she thought her opinion of Kotone's magic over. Reconfirming her suspicion that Kotone was an enemy that she should not act carelessly with.

"I see her!" Happy yelled from above. "Oh! She just swerved off to the right."

The group hurried on as Kotone hurridly figured out a plan that would hopefully confuse them. Her legs started to feel like they were on fire as the muscles were pushed beyond their limit. Her feet were aching as her plan feel into place. She grinned in satisfaction and she came to an abrupt halt. She spun on her heel and sprinted towards Wendy and the rest of them.

"Something's wrong," Wendy murmured, "the scent in the air just got stronger all of the sudden."

Erza picked up her speed, "Does that mean she's decided to meet us head on?"

"There she is!" Lucy screamed as a dust cloud appeared in their field of vision.

Kotone was in front of the cloud head ducked down. The coat billowed behind her, spreading like an eagle's wings.

"She's not stopping?" Grey asked.

He was right; she didn't slow down in slightest. In fact, she had picked up speed and was slowly turning into a blur.

"It's a scare tactic! She wants us to slow down!" Erza shouted.

Kotone kept coming and so did the others. Dust clouds heading right at each other. It looked as if they were going to collide and created some kind of explosion from the impact. Then, at the last second, right when Erza's fist was going to connect with Kotone's face, Kotone was gone.

Erza and the others were caught up in Kotone's dust cloud and were coughing as they tried to escape.

"What happened?" Gajeel exclaimed with a furious passion.

"I don't know," Erza replied, just as confused.

The cloud dissipated and everyone was left dumbfounded. Kotone wasn't anywhere to be seen.

"Wendy," Gajeel asked, "Can you track her down?"

SNIII-COUGH COUGH COUGH!

"Ugh," she replied, "all the dirt got in my nose."

"Kotone went this way!" Happy yelled from above.

"How do you know?" Lucy asked.

"I've been up here the whole time…Kotone scary!" he yelled back. "I was watching from up here and right when you guys were going to ram into each other, she jumped up and looked at me with such a scary face! Then she ran that way."

Happy started lead the way, but Erza easily picked up Kotone's sloppy trail as he human legs were screaming from the pain.

"She's here somewhere," Erza stated as their trail ended at a blue-green lagoon…

A/N ANOTHER CLIFFY! Don't get mad at me, I need to do something so I can at least make sure some of you come back for more. If you guys are like me and can't stop reading something until the end…then I apologize, this must be horrible for you.

Kotone:…..Where did I go?

Natsu: WHERE DID I GO?

Miu: Happy knows! :D

Happy: Aye!

Miu and Happy: ('.')('.') It's a

Lucy: Don't roll your tongue like that!

Kotone: Natsu said he would get me this time, but he epically failed now didn't he?

Natsu: SHADDUP!

Miu: Well there were no reviews this time *goes into a dark corner* No I deserve this, *still in the dark corner, sulking* I said I didn't require reviews and I guess I made it sound like I didn't want reviews. It's my fault…

Gajeel: WOMAN! Get up and keep writing! I haven't had a fight yet!

Miu: *suddenly becomes distracted*

Gajeel: WHAAAAAAT? Does that mean I don't get a fight?

Kotone: Remember, some people don't appreciate your loud voice…Goody-two-shoes…

Miu: AAAAAAAANNNNYYYWAAAYYYYSS! I'm working on the next chapter today as well so the next chapter might come up soon, but nothing is written in stone! Unless, you count the Mayans who wrote in clay that dried and became stone….Sorry this chapter is so short, UNTIL NEXT TIME!

Gajeel: I told you before this isn't an ANIME!

Miu: But, isn't it?
