Voldemort killed another dark guild that, for ones, had some information about where one of Zeref's demons was, and so he killed them, not spearing one life. Their usefulness has come to an end. It was a small guild, so there were only 20 wizards.

He took his new 77 followers to hunt down the demon. After a few days of traveling, he found it. The demon looked like a mix between a dog, cat, and bat. It had a cat face, dog floppy ears, body, and tail, cat paws, and bat wings.

Voldemort tried to tame the demon, but it was mindless, so uncontrollable. He had no choice but to kill it, but the demon took out 38 of his followers, only leaving him with 39 left before it died. Now enraged, Voldemort curcioed the remaining death eaters before turning to leave.

When he started to hear shouts of pain from behind him he quickly turned around to see that the rest of his followers have been killed by some strange looking woman with metal-like claws, and a man with black, curly hair, who is hold a book with the title END.

"Who are you?" Voldemort demanded. "And why have you killed my servants?"

"We saw how you were able to kill that demon without any problems," the man said. "You could do better without those weaklings." Voldemort didn't need to be told that, he already knew. "As to whom we are, we're Lord Zeref's strongest demons. My name is Mard Geer, and this is Kyoka," Mard Geer said while pointing at himself and his female companion.

"You're Zeref's strongest demons?" he questioned.

Kyoka nodded in answer. "Yes, and there are others. All of Lord Zeref's demons are from the dark guild Tartaros."

"Our Master E.N.D. has formed this guild for us, so that we may find Lord Zeref," Mard Geer told him.

'There are more of them, and they have their own guild. This makes things easier.' Voldemort thought. "So what do you want from me?" he asked them.

Mard Geer's smug smirk grew wider. "We would like to make a deal with you."

"A deal?"

"Yes, you help us find Lord Zeref, and awaken E.N.D. and we'll help you with anything you like. How does that sound?"

Voldemort likes this idea. If he has these demons helping him, then he could kill Harry Potter with little to no problems, and take over the world. These demons don't even know that they just made a huge step forward in his plans.

"Okay, I agree with those terms. But isn't Zeref dead?" Voldemort had to ask.

Mard Geer shook his head. "No he isn't dead, he's immortal, which is why he made us. He created us so we would kill him, but none of us were strong enough. Only our master can do it, but releasing him is a lot harder than just opening a book like the rest of us," he said while shifting the book in his hands.

Voldemort couldn't understand why anyone would want to die. That is his worst nightmare that he would never admit to these creatures. But with their help, he could find out why he wants to die when they found Zeref. But he's going to make sure that Zeref doesn't get his wish until he finds out how to become immortal like him.

"Alright, what I want in return is the head of the boy who lived, Harry Potter, and to take control of the wizards of this world, and kill all the none magical filth," he spat the last word to them.

Mard Geer and Kyoka both smirked. "You have a deal," the current leader of Tartaros said.

"You know, I've been thinking…We need a team name," Natsu is the one to voice the statement, catching everyone else's attention.

Harry looked thoughtful. "I have to agree. Fawkes mentioned it before, so I've been thinking of some names with his help," he said.

"What have you come up with?" Gray asked while turning to look at him. The rest of the team stayed silent, waiting for Harry to tell them.

They had just finished a job, and are now on their way back to the guild. Harry was a tiny bit disappointed, because he didn't get anything to help with his memory loss. For now it was okay. It's not like they are all that important, at least not life and death important, right? But then Harry had to remember Voldemort, who is somewhere out there and planning on killing him at some point. He wonders if he needs his memories to fight the guy or not. It might be best if he did, because at the very least he would know who he was up against. He may know some things about the madman, but not everything. He doesn't remember Voldemort being manipulative.

Back to the present time, Harry voiced some of the team names he thought of; the last one being Team Fairy Zeal.

"You know, that last one isn't that bad," Lucy said. "It fits us, even though the others do to, but this one fits all of us."

Harry nodded in agreement. "That's what I thought too, which is the reason why I like this one the best. Fawkes came up with it."

"Team Fairy Zeal…" Erza said aloud. "I like it. It has a good ring to it."

"Not only that but it means great energy or enthusiasm in pursuit of a cause or an objective," Lucy told them. "Sounds just like us."

{Although, Team Annihilation is also fitting,} Fawkes pointed out with a snicker.

Harry turned to face him. "You would say that; however, not all of us are destructive," he countered.

"So, does that mean we're in agreement for Team Fairy Zeal? Oh, maybe we could call it Team Zeal for short!" Happy exclaimed his idea.

Harry and the others all turned to meet each others' eyes, and nodded. "Yeah, I believe we're in agreement," Harry said.

"From now on we're called Team Fairy Zeal!" Natsu cried out in joy.

"Aye sir!" Happy followed.

Shortly after they agreed on a team name, Harry and the others have noticed that people were looking at them in concern and pity. This confused everyone. Why were they looking at them like that?

"Why are they whispering?" Harry asked looking over to the sounds of the soft voices only to bump into Gray. "Ow, why did you stop?"

Gray didn't say anything besides, "This is… our…" he couldn't finish, making Harry worried now. He moved to look around Gray, since the young man was taller than him, and saw what made the rest of his team freeze in shock. Their guild hall had iron pillars sticking out of it.

Harry was shocked at what he saw for only a moment, because he remembered that Castor was in there. Now worried sick, Harry took off for the guild while hearing running footsteps following him a few moments after, but he didn't stop to wait for them to catch up. He needed to check to see if his son is okay.

Harry charges through the door in a manner that took the doors off their hinges, and cried out, "Castor! Castor, are you okay?!" He looked around, not seeing anyone. This only made him more worried. "Castor, where are you?!" Shortly after saying this, Erza, Natsu, Gray, Happy, and Lucy ran in, also looking around.

"Who could have done this?" Erza asked in slight horror and more in anger.

"I don't care at the moment who it was that did this to our guild! I need to make sure Castor is okay first, and then I'll want to know who, so I beat them up!" Harry shouted angrily, starting to sound like Natsu. Speaking of Natsu, he was nodding his head in agreement with him.

"It was Phantom," they heard a voice say from behind them. They turned to look at who it was and saw that it was Mira. "I don't understand why they would do something like this," she said, but it sounded more to herself than them.

Harry walked over, and as gently as he could, grabbed her by the shoulders. "Please tell me, did you see Castor, and is he okay?" he begged, his eyes filled with worry, fear, and hope, which told everyone just how worried he is for the well being for his adopted son.

Mira nodded. "Yes, he's with everyone else down in the basement. Don't worry he wasn't hurt," she told him in a reassuring tone.

Harry breathed a long sigh of relief, and almost fell to his knees from all the tension and fear leaving his body. Once he knew he would not fall over, he ran for the basement stairs and jumped over most of them, so he could get there faster.

Harry looked around the moment he hit the last step for his adopted son. He didn't have to look for long, because Castor ran up to him and wrapped his arms around him in a tight grip. Harry did the same, but his arms are more protective than Castor's scared, trembling arms.

"Are you okay?" Harry asked in worry when he pulled away to look Castor over.

Castor nodded. "Yeah I'm fine. The one that attacked did it when no one else was here," he told him.

"THEY WHAT!?" Harry and the rest of his team shouted in rage. "Those cowered!" Natsu shouted with fire shooting out of his mouth.

"Yo, I see that you're all back from your job!" Makarov said with a big cup of beer in his hand.

"This is not a happy time!" Natsu and Gray yelled in the drunk man's face.

Harry walked over to the old man with Castor still in his arms and Fawkes on his shoulder. "Can you tell us what happened here in detail?" he requested.

"They attacked an empty guild like the cowardly idiots they are," Makarov said. "This is as far as they will go, so there is no need to worry."

Harry narrowed his eyes. "You mean to tell me that we're not even going to get payback?" His fist clenched. "I did not just have a mini heart attack…only to not give them one in return…" he growled, not noticing that he almost slipped into a hiss.

"There is no need to get worked up over a surprise attack. Just leave them be," Makarov said.

"THIS ISN'T RIGHT! I WON'T ACCEPT THIS UNTIL I CRUSH THEM!" Natsu shouted with Harry nodding his head firmly in agreement.

"Natsu, cut it out!" Makarov shouted, but when he did, he smacked Lucy on the butt.

Lucy glared. "Is there a reason you hit me?!" She demanded lowly, but Makarov didn't answer. He just got up from his table and left.

"I'll be back. I have to go to the bathroom," he said.

"Natsu, Harry, I know you're both upset. The master is just as shocked as the rest of us, but he can't do anything because warfare between guilds is prohibited by the council," Mira said sadly.

{It wasn't a hundred years ago,} Fawkes stated. {Guilds were killing each other just to prove they were the strongest.}

Harry glared, but it wasn't directed at his familiar. "Well no wonder there is a rule against going to war if stuff like that happened," he said angrily, making the others look at him in confusion. When he saw their expressions, he told them what Fawkes did.

"So that's why they made that rule," Mira said like everything made sense now.

Harry tilted his head. "You didn't know before?" he asked.

"No I didn't. There was no record of it. Well, there might be, but not here." Harry understood what Mira was telling him. Turning back, he saw Makarov has returned to his drinking.

Harry sighed, "I have a bad feeling about all this."

Erza heard him. "Well if that's the case…" She turned to address everyone. "Listen up, when you leave the guild stay in groups. Phantom may still be around, and they might attack again. So, I just want you all to be careful," she ordered. The rest of the guild nodded their heads in understanding.

"Psst…" Harry looked over to see Natsu beckoning him over. He does so, with Castor still in his arms, and leans closer to hear what the dragon slayer has to say. "I just got an idea. Let's all stay at Lucy's place."

"Why stay there?" Harry asked.

"Well, we're an official team now, right?" Harry nodded his head to say yes. "So, as a team, we need to stick together. Lucy has a lot of space in her apartment, it'll be easy for all of us to fit."

"What about Castor?"

"He can come too," Natsu said with a shrug of his shoulders like it was no big deal.

Harry sighed in defeat. "Fine we'll meet you there. I need to grab some stuff from our apartment. You go tell the others."

"Harry?" Harry looked down to Castor, who spoke. "Why are you whispering this?" Now that he mentioned it, why were they? Harry turned to ask Natsu, but he was already gone. He turned to face his son again.

"I don't know, I just hope Lucy will be expecting us. Come on," Harry turned to leave the guild, "Let's run home real quick." He pulled out his invisibility cloak. "Get under this. I don't want anyone seeing us," He told Castor, who stayed close to Harry and got under the cloak with him before they left the building.

Castor, Harry, and Fawkes met up with Natsu, Erza, Gray, and Happy, who were climbing through Lucy's window. On the way to Lucy's place, Harry found out that she doesn't live that far away from him. But at the moment, he needs to find out what his friends are doing.

"What are you guys doing?" Harry asked.

"Well, Lucy isn't here yet, and she always keeps her window open, so we're going to meet her inside," Natsu explained. Harry gets the feeling that Natsu didn't tell Lucy that they were staying over, but he refuses to stay outside with Castor when there might be someone out looking to harm someone. So he had Fawkes fly the two of them up to the window, and then Harry pushed Castor through it and into the room with him following close behind.

Not long after they got in, Lucy herself made it to her apartment, and went inside the building, walked up the stairs, and opened her door, only to find them inside.

"Welcome home!" They all said to her, scaring the shocked girl, whom just walked in. She threw her rolling bag at Natsu, making Harry and Castor wince. That had to hurt.

"What are you all doing here?!" Lucy demanded.

Harry sighed, "So I was right, Natsu didn't tell you we were going to be here."

"No, he didn't!"

"I'm guessing you didn't hear me when I told the rest of the guild that since Phantom Lord is in town, it be best to stay in groups," Erza said.

"I don't think anything will happen, but Harry didn't feel right about it all, so we're taking precautions," Gray explained.

"So, we decided to have a sleepover!" Happy said excitedly.

"You are of age, so I didn't feel right with leaving only Natsu and Gray staying over with you. That's why I tagged along," Erza said.

"But Harry's also here," Lucy said.

"Yes, but I know Harry wouldn't try anything. I trust him more than these two," Erza explained.

"That might have something to do with him having a child with him," Lucy pointed out. Harry gave her a look. "Well, that and you're not the type to be a pervert," she added quickly.

"Not only that, but I'm sure Harry has a crush on someone else," Erza pointed out.

Harry heard that. "I DO NOT!" he shouted in denial.

"I'm going to bed, so will you guys keep it down?" Lucy suggested.

"She's right. Castor needs to go to bed too, so everyone quiet down, of I'll make you," Harry said, thinking of two spells he could use on them.

It didn't take too long for everyone to get ready for bed. Once they were all settled, they fell asleep.

Harry was the first to wake up. He went into Lucy's bathroom, took a shower, changed for the day, and then went into the kitchen to start making breakfast for everyone. While cooking, he thought back to last night. Phantom had their own dragon slayer by the name of Gajeel, who is an iron dragon slayer. When Harry heard that, he didn't put two and two together, but now he realized that it must have been Gajeel who attacked their guild hall the other night.

Natsu was next to wake up, and Harry guessed it was due to the smell of food. Happy shortly followed, and so did Castor, who went to get a shower. Then it was Erza, Lucy, and Gray who came into the kitchen. Harry wondered when Fawkes woke, but he gets the feeling that he did around the same time as him, and went out to hunt.

They were all in the middle of eating breakfast when Fawkes came in, flying like a rocket and slamming full body into Harry's face. Harry grabbed hold of him and pulled him off, and demanded to know what is so wrong that Fawkes couldn't stop in time due to flying so fast.

{It's Levy, Jet, and Droy!} Fawkes started. {I found them pinned to a tree all beaten and bloody!} Harry's eyes widened at the news. He got up, leaving the plate behind, and started running for the door. He was stopped by Erza grabbing him.

"Harry, what is wrong?" she ordered as calmly as she could, knowing that he's very upset.

"Levy, Jet, and Droy were attacked. And if I had to guess, I'd say around last night," Harry said after taking in some deep breaths.

When everyone heard what he said, they all got up to follow. Fawkes led the way for them, coming to a stop in front of a tree in the park. On the tree, pinned by iron cuffs, were the three members of Team Shadow Gear.

They were all in shock at the sight. 'How could anyone do this?' Harry thought, but his thinking got Fawkes to snap him out of his shock.

Fawkes heard what he was thinking, and hit him with a wing. After that he said, {Instead of standing there like an idiot, why don't you help get them down from there!?}

Harry started moving over to Levy, Jet, and Droy with Fawkes on his shoulder. "Can you get rid of the iron cuffs?" he asked his familiar. Fawkes nodded, and hovered in front of Levy. He grabbed the cuffs in his talons and tore them off with ease.

After Fawkes got Levy down, Harry heard an angry Makarov right next to him say, "The destruction on our guild is one thing, but attacking my children is going too far!" Makarov gripped his staff too tightly to the point it snapped in half under the pressure. He started talking again after Fawkes got Jet down. "THIS MEANS WAR!"

Shortly after Harry and Fawkes got Droy down from the tree, and brought all of them to the hospital, they got ready to attack Phantom Lord.

"Why can't I come with you?" Castor asked Harry. He sees Levy as a friend almost has much as Lucy, but to Harry he's still a child that could get really hurt.

"I don't want you coming, because it's too dangerous." Harry bent down to Castor's level. "I need you to stay with Lucy, and help her watch over Levy, Jet, and Droy, she can't do it on her own. What would happen if someone else attacks? At least this way you won't be alone. Besides, I'm also leaving Fawkes with you," he told his adopted son knowing that he's tricking him into thinking that he's been given an important job of protecting Lucy and Levy.

After a bit of thinking on Castor's part, he met Harry's green eyes with his grey ones, and nodded in acceptance.

Harry smiled at this. "Good…" He stood back up straight. "We'll be back shortly, okay? Always keep your eyes peeled for anything," he ordered.

"I understand, Harry!" Castor said with a smile. With that, Harry left the hospital room and followed his guild to Phantom.

Once all of Fairy Tail were in front of Phantom Lord's guild hall, Harry and Natsu stood in the front. Harry pointed his wand at the door, and Natsu lit his right fist in flames.

'Bombarda!' Harry cast silently.

Natsu also didn't say anything. He threw his fist forward, sending the flamed to slam into the doors at the same time as Harry's curse. The doors have been blown open, revealing the shocked Phantom Lord Mages.

"Fairy Tail has come for payback!" Makarov called out loudly enough for everyone to hear.

Castor was walking through town with Fawkes on his shoulder looking for Lucy. She went out to get groceries, but that was two hours ago. Lucy said she would be back within an hour. When she didn't come back when she said she would, Castor was about to go look for her then, but Fawkes stopped him, pointing at a clock, and then at the small hand, moved his talon in a full circle to tell him that they should wait another hour. After another hour went by, and Lucy still didn't return, Fawkes agreed that they should go looking for her.

Castor heard Fawkes chirp and looked to him with a tilt to his head. The phoenix pointed his beak toward an alleyway. Castor guessed that that is where they needed to look. He walks in to take a look, but doesn't see anything. He was about to turn back when Fawkes glided over to a spot on the ground and picked a key chain full of gold and silver keys. Castor recognized them; they're Lucy's celestial spirit gate keys.

Fawkes handed them over to him, and Castor held on to them while also staring. He didn't understand why the keys were here when Lucy never goes anywhere without them. Fawkes must have seen his confusion, because he started to look like he was struggling with trying to go one way while also going in another. Castor still didn't understand, so Fawkes looked around and found broken glass. He grabbed them and moved them around on the ground.

When Fawkes finished what he was doing with the glass, Castor looked at them and saw that they spelled words. Lucy was kidnapped. This is what the words said. Now Castor understood why Lucy's keys were here but not her.

He got nervous and scared. "I failed Harry. I promised to look and protect Lucy and Levy, but I failed in protecting Lucy," he said, and then looked to Fawkes. "I'm scared for Lucy. What if…what if she's…dead?"

Fawkes shook his head to tell him that she wasn't, making Castor feel relieved. Fawkes moved the glass around again to make them say, Don't worry, Harry isn't going to be mad at you. Lucy will be fine too. He moved the glass again. I'm sure that Harry will be very happy to know that you weren't hurt, and he and the others will go after Phantom to rescue Lucy. So stop worrying.

Castor nodded to tell the phoenix that he understood. "I hope she's okay." He looks up into the sky. "Please get back soon, Harry," he prayed.

Harry cast a few bat-boogie hexes at a few Phantoms - he learned this spell during the week between their punishment for going on an S-class quest, and their latest job. Not only that, but he also remembered a female with red hair and blue eye. If Phantom Lord was going to humiliate Fairy Tail, then he will be more than happy to return the favor. The mages that were hit with the hex now have bats coming out of their noses.

A couple more mages from the enemy guild had weapons aimed at him, but he cast an Expelliarmus Maxima. Fawkes was the one to suggest he try to tweak with some of the spells that he got from memory. Like if Lumos, or Bombarda became stronger just by adding maxima to the spell phrase, then couldn't he do the same for the disarming charm? So he trained to do it, and it worked.

So, when Harry cast Expelliarmus Maxima, more than one beam of red formed around him and shot out at the mages. Sword, guns, and any other weapon these guys had are no longer within their hands. Once disarmed, Harry cast a Turbo at them, sending them all flying into the air, and then he cast Concursores, which caused them all to slam into the wall behind them due to its shock wave.

Harry had a few moments to take to a breather, allowing him to also wonder how the master was doing. Makarov, when they first came here, turned into a giant, and started to attack all those who stood in his way while calling out for the master of Phantom Lord, Jose.

The fight has been going on for a little while now, and Makarov is no longer in the room where most of the fighting is, which is why Harry wondered how he was doing. He noticed Natsu fighting a guy with wild, black hair, red eyes, and piercings all over his face. It didn't take him long to figure out that this guy was Gajeel the Iron Dragon Slayer of Phantom Lord. Harry doesn't feel worried for Natsu, the two seemed to be equally match.

A bunch of other enemy mages surrounded Harry, but before any of them, or even he, could attack, a body has come crashing down through the ceiling. When the dust cleared enough for them to see who it was, Harry and the rest of Fairy Tail were in shock. The body on the ground is none other than Makarov.

I was thinking that maybe I should use Team Fairy Zeal for all the Fairy Tail fanfics that I write. What do you guys think? I'll have a poll up for it by the time you read this, so please vote.

P.S. I've made an account on Quotev. I'll be writing short fictions on there, but I'm not sure about fanfics. I might place the ones I finished, but I'm not sure. I'll have to think more on it. If you think I should then please tell me.

Harry: Sounds like fun. :)

Natsu: Yeah it does! You even have a short story already written there. It's cute.

Zeref: Yeah it is. :3

Voldemort: It sounds degusting.

Harry: *glare* Just to annoy him, please read it. Her account is the same name as this one as well as Dark Dragon Crystal.

Enj/Dark: With that said, please review! ^-^
