Gajeel POV

After I arrived back home, my father calls a mandatory meeting with his counsel and I was invited to go as I was the one Jose asked for.

When I reach the counsel room, Pantherlily is arguing with Rouge, Erza was arguing with Sting and my father looked like he was about to explode. Then he sees me enter the room.

"I'll call this counsel meeting to order now. Gajeel, you were the one called there by Jose. I believe that if we attacked elsewhere in Captiosus, you and a team of soldiers could rescue Levy while Jose is dealing with other troops. Erza will attack Algaeitia, the river that runs from our kingdom into theirs.

Pantherlily and Rogue, you two will go from the military stores in Captiosus take them for Naurnos temporarily.

I have called for our allies to attack other parts of Captiosus. King Igneel's armies is taking the eastern side, Silver to the North and we will take the west and south.

While this is going on Gajeel and a small group of troops will take the palace and rescue Levy. If all goes to plan, Jose will have to hold a front of five fronts. Even with Tenebris's help, Captiosus will not have the soldiers to back it up," My father tells everyone in the room. They nod as he adds," Gajeel, Mard Geer and Crime Sorcier, will be with you, as they are my spies there and you will be have legion platoon with you as body guards for the princess when you find her. It is in and out. No more fighting than there needs to be. Clear?"

"As crystal Father," I say that as I nod. Jose is gonna suffer for even thinking of hurting Levy. Not to mention Captiosus's people. They have suffered long enough.

"The counsel is dismissed. Go, and prepare for battle!" My father called out as we all left the room.

After leaving, I head to my chambers and put on traveler's clothes and put my armor in a bag so that when we are ready, to attack I have it. I then place my sword's sheath to my belt.

Then I go to the stables and saddle and bridle up Karma Demon. I see that the Legion Platoon are ready to ride, as are the remaining members of Mard Geer and Crime Sorcier are as well. We begin to ride to the Capital city of Captiosus, Crocus.

Meanwhile, Levy POV

When I wake up, a man with maroon hair and a woman with long straight pale blue hair. They both were a guards uniform. They pass me a small loaf of bread and a glass of water to me. Before they leave, one shoves a piece of paper in my hands.

It read: Gajeel's coming.

For the first time in being in this cell I smile. I hand the paper back to the female guard.

"Princess, we are spies from Naurnos. This is Eric amd I'm Sorano. Our cover names are Cobra and Angel," She tells me as she shoves me to the ground as we hear Jose's stomps up the stairs.

He strorms in the cell and sees me on the ground. He sneers at me as he kicks my ribs again.

"Stepdaughter, you finally know your place, after years of educating you finally understand," Jose mocked me. I glarel at him and he looks at Sorano and asks her, "What are you and Cobra doing up here?"

"Well, your majesty, this little ingrate was trying to escape by trying to break her chain off so she needed to learn a lesson. She also called you a bunch of lewd names as well," Sorano said with another sneer. I try to get up from my fetal position but my arms are too weak.

"Oh really? Thank you for letting me know, " Jose told her as he kicked me in my liver area. I fall back to the ground.

As my vision darkens, I think, "Gajeel please hurry. I don't think I can take much more of this. I'm at my breaking point. "
