Author's Note: Alright! Chapter 6! This is going to be a two part special. I still am in shock about last Friday's chapter of Fairy Tail. I feel completely bad for Gray, The Milkovic family and especially Gray's dad (May Silver FullBuster RIP). To be honest though, I didn't even see that coming. I saw the whole 'Gray I am your Father' thing coming but not the 'Surprise! I'm Deliora, your master died for nothing!' part. Well anyway, back to the story!

Chapter 6: The Battle on the Blood Moon: Part 1

Levy woke up the next morning. She stretched her arms and rolled over to her right side. She shot her eyes wide open when she found the right side of her bed unoccupied.

"Gajeel?" she said out loud; nothing. She began to search her room; worried about the zombie. She stopped in her tracks. The zombified Dragon Slayer was nowhere to be found and here she was, searching for him. Was she starting to grow feelings for him? She shook away those thoughts. She liked him because he was helpful and saved her life, but feelings of more than just friends; to her that was crazy. She began to chuckled at those feelings when she heard her door burst open. She shrieked in shock but was relieved to only discover it was Gajeel.

"Gajeel, where have you been?" she asked. Gajeel didn't reply, instead he walked into the room but coated in blood. Levy discovered he went hunting. It looks like his killing instincts were kicking in again so he decided to go hunting for an animal instead. I hope that's not human blood. She thought. Levy took a closer look and noticed something in Gajeel's arms. It was white, fluffy and moving.

"What is that?" she asked Gajeel. Gajeel held onto the fluffy white object with both hands; he then revealed what it was. It was a white bunny. He handed it over to Levy. It looked like it was a gift for her. "Aw! Gajeel! Thank you!" She took the bunny and began to cuddle it in her arms. The white fur began to tickle Levy's skin.

"Mine!" Gajeel suddenly said. He walked over to Levy and began wrap his arms around her waist while kissing her head and she held onto the bunny.

"It's adorable Gajeel." She smiled. Suddenly, Levy remembered something; something important. What were they going to do with Gajeel? The Blood Moon was tomorrow night and they had no plan on what to do with the zombie.

"Gajeel," Levy suddenly said "I just remembered the Blood Moon is tomorrow night. What are we going to do with you?" Gajeel and looked at her with a simple shrug "Gajeel, The Blood Moon has a real nasty effect on zombies. You'll be a mindless killing machine the moment that Blood Moon rises. We got to get you somewhere so you won't be a danger." Gajeel gave Levy a look. He knew what she just said (well most of it). He wanted to stay with her; his Mate. But he knew this was for the safety of everyone around him, including her. He nodded at her words.

"Thank you for understanding Gajeel."

After spending the hour getting ready for the day, Levy and Gajeel left for the guild. Levy only had one thought on her mind and that was to get Gajeel into some safe haven until The Blood Moon was over. When they arrived at the guild, they discovered the guild in its usual state. Knock out Drag Outs galore. And who was the one to start it all? Natsu & Gray.

"I told you Flame Brain! I haven't seen your stupid scarf!" Gray screamed.

"Knock it off Popsicle Ass! I know you know where my scarf is!" Natsu screamed back.

"Oh boy." Lucy muttered under her breath while Levy and Gajeel joined her "Here we go again."

"They haven't had a fight in a while haven't they?" Mira asked while leaving Levy and Gajeel's respective breakfasts on the table.

"Not since the first Blood Moon." Lucy replied. Levy gasped when she heard that.

"That's right!" Levy said while mentally smacking herself for forgetting. Because of Natsu and Gray's first fight in months, she forgot for a moment the subject she wanted to speak about "I need to see The Master. We need to get Gajeel somewhere safe during tomorrow's Blood Moon." Lucy and Mira's eyes widened hearing this.

"I completely forgot about that!" Mira shrieked "We'll have to get magic sealing cuffs for him in order to keep him at bay. We'll keep him in the guild's dungeon-"

"We have a dungeon?" Levy questioned "Since when?"

"It was to replace that old peeping room The Master made under the pool. We just finished decorating it not too long ago, thanks to Laki's torture devices."

"Well…. At least it's been put to good use." Levy said in an uneasy tone. The sound of Laki's torture devices in the dungeon made a shiver go down her spine. "I-isn't there another way? Like can't we create a suppressant on The Virus so Gajeel will be barley affected?" Mira shook her head.

"Levy, you know as well as I know about making a suppressant." Mira said sadly "Since we don't know what The Virus is made of, we can't create a cure or a suppressant until we know for sure."

She looked at Gajeel while he continued to eat. Levy then let out a sigh. Looks like it can't be helped. She thought but, it's for his own good.

"Alright Mira, Have the dungeon set up before tomorrow night. May as well get everything set up for The Blood Moon in case of another attack." Mira nodded and left for Makarov's office while Levy and Lucy watched Natsu and Gray's fight with Gajeel watching curiously as if to say he wanted to join the fight.

The next day came a lot quicker than Levy expected. The guild spent the entire day preparing for The Blood Moon. They boarded the windows, sealed the door to the point no one could get in or out, filled up on guns and ammunition, Erza re-quipping into a black half top that showed a large amount of her cleavage, military pants, combat boots, her hair in a ponytail, black paint painted into streaks on each of her cheeks, guns in every pocket or place you could imagine and different types of ammo on her belt. And surprisingly to Levy; Porlyusica was carrying around a mini gun instead of her usual broomstick. Levy took Gajeel down to the dungeon around sunset and put the magic sealing cuffs on his wrists. Before she had the Master lock the cell door, she walked over to him and surprisingly gave him a hug. Just to soothe him.

"Don't worry." She told him "This is only for tonight and for everyone's safety. I promise I'll be back in the morning for you."

"Mine!" he suddenly said. He made a motion as if to say he wanted her to stay.

"I'll be back for you tomorrow morning." She assured him "This is only for tonight. I would stay but I have to be upstairs for guard duty." She then looked around hoping no one could hear what she was going to say next "If I get off of guard duty early, I'll come visit you." She surprisingly then gave him a small kiss on the cheek and left the dungeon. Makarov closed the cell door and locked it. When Gajeel was all alone, he slumped down to the ground and muttered something only he could hear. "Levy."

Levy went straight for the bar after her visit to Gajeel and ordered lemonade while she sat deep in thought. Did I really just kiss him on the cheek?! She thought Oh God! Why did I do that?! Yes, she was starting to care about Gajeel's well-being but no, she couldn't fall for him. She loves someone else. That one person she couldn't remember. She had strong feelings for them. She really wished she could remember him. But for some reason; every time she tried, a wall or a fog would cloud her mind and she would come up with nothing. Who was he? What happened to him? Well, now wasn't a time for romance. Now was a dangerous night. She told herself that she cares about Gajeel and that kiss was just a way to reassure him.

After drinking her lemonade, Levy walked up to the balcony to meet Natsu, Mira and Azlack. They had the first shift for guard duty tonight. Since tonight was a very dangerous night, everyone in the guild was asked to stay at the guild for the night for protection reasons. In case of another attack; they were to take guard duty. A bunch of clouds began to move away and soon, a blood red moon shone high in dark night sky. It was The Blood Moon.

"Is it me, or does The Blood Moon seem a little brighter than last time?" Natsu asked suddenly.

"It could be your imagination Natsu." Mira smiled "You do have an overactive imagination sometimes."

"I don't know." Levy suddenly said "It does look a little brighter. And to be honest, I don't know if it's a good thing, or a bad thing." Mira and Natsu stared at Levy for a moment with concern. This could be an issue. Azlack, who was keeping watch, suddenly noticed something in the distance. It looked like a crowd… No, it was an army….. A ZOMBIE ARMY.

"Sound the alarm!" Azlack screamed "We got company!" Mira ran to the lacrima that was put there in case of a zombie attack and pressed the button, activating the lacrima. A loud noise screeched through the guild. People who fell asleep in their sleeping bags got up and grabbed their weapons. They ran up to the secret tunnel that leads directly outside the guild. They got out one by one and stood together; ready to fight.

"Here they come!" Erza screamed. She re-quipped out of her pajamas and into her gear that she prepared for this fight and as soon as they began to attack; Erza set off the first round of magic bullets.

"Ice Make: Machine gun!" Gray screamed. A machine gun made out of pure ice soon appeared in his hands and he began to shoot wildly at the zombies.

"I'm all fired up!" Natsu screamed "Fire Dragon's: ROAR!" A huge amount of flames began flying out of Natsu's mouth and was a direct hit on the zombies. Bisca, being the sniper she is; began to shoot at zombies that were far away, getting a ton of direct hits. But, something seemed to be different. Some of the zombies were getting back up.

"Erza we got a problem!" Bisca screamed "Some of those zombies are getting back up! I don't know how that's even possible! They usually fall to the ground!" She continued to shoot until she couldn't keep track of the amount that was approaching "They're too many! I can't shoot that many at the same time!"

"Retreat into the guild!" Erza screamed "We can finish them off there!" Everyone began backing away and into the tunnels. (Except for Natsu, who was too dense to listen to Erza's orders and had to have Happy fly him out of the way). The zombies busted through the door, of the guild without hesitation or difficultly. Gun fire shot out through the guild and hit a few zombies. Only for the zombies to get back up and fight again like they were never injured.

"They're too many!" Jet screamed.

"I think this could be it!" Droy screamed.

"Not it's not, were not going to die! Not while I'm around!" Levy yelled "Were Fairy Tail Mages and were not going down without a fight!" They ran up the stairs of the guild to the second floor and began to shoot at the zombies below.

Gajeel was going berserk. He was trying his best to free himself from his handcuffs as well as bust out of his jail cell. He began to thrash wildly in his cell. An odd red tint added to his already red eyes. The Blood Moon was having a horrible effect on him.

"L-levy." He began to mutter "Levy." He continued to try and break the cuffs on his hands while muttering "Levy" over and over again. He growled continuously. He was trying to fight The Blood Moon but he seemed to be failing miserably. There was a battle going on and he wanted in on it.

The amount of zombies that were attacking was piling up. Levy couldn't keep count. 20? 40? Maybe close to 100? 1,000? She hasn't seen this many since the last Blood Moon. There were probably even more! She was shooting at each zombie that was nearby, kicking any of them that got in her way. She even witnessed Porlyusica shooting at a small gang of zombies with her mini gun.

"I think I found something I hate more than humans!" Porlyusica screamed after she ran out of bullets and began to hit the zombies with her broom before re-stocking on bullets. Levy looked around and noticed Laxus who was back on his feet after his injury from the bad zombie was shooting away at the zombies surrounding him.

"HASTA LA VISTA ZOMBIES!" he screamed "Lighting Dragon's: ROAR!" A roar made out of pure lightning hit some of the zombies but barley had an effect. He then fused his magic with the machine gun he was holding and soon lighting filled bullets hit each zombie. Levy continued to hit the zombies with her bullets until something she never expected happened.

"I-I'm out of bullets!" She screamed. Levy needed to get somewhere safe and fast.

Gajeel continued thrashing wildly in his prison cell. These cuffs refused to come off.

"S-shrimp." He said under his breath. "S-shrimp!" he wanted Levy to be by his side. But with the Blood Moon lingering, his killing instinct was hitting overdrive. He wanted to kill something. Anything! But he didn't want to harm his Mate. With one more final thrash; his cuffs finally broke off of his wrists. Now he was one step closer to breaking out of there.

Levy fought every zombie in the area with her magic. She was out of bullets, in the middle of a battle field and needed to get more bullets as well as somewhere safe; fast!

Levy jumped from the second floor and onto the first so she could grab more bullets. Just when she was close to the ammo; an arm grabbed hers and tugged her away. It was a zombie. No, it wasn't Gajeel or the bad zombie. It was one that was different. He didn't seem to be affected by The Blood Moon. Then, Levy heard him whisper something.

"H-help m-m-me." Her eyes widened when she heard those words. Suddenly, an odd shade became a part of the zombie's eyes. The Blood Moon was taking effect. Levy let out a bloodcurdling scream when suddenly; she felt something come between her and the zombie. She fell flat on the ground and looked up; it was Gajeel. He broke out of his prison.

"GAJEEL!" she screamed happily. But that smile turned into a frown when he looked at her and she noticed his eyes. They had an unusual red tint in them. The Blood Moon was taking control. Gajeel stood between Levy and the zombie who attacked her. Only one thought crossed Levy's mind at that moment.

Is he going to kill me?
