It would seem that someone was late to ask for a sequel for 'My Hollow Siblings', and it was close to 10, so I'm going to count it. This means there will be a sequel. Now, most of you are not going to understand this, except the one that asked me about it at the last second. The power of bacon was too strong! XD

Recap: Harry and Natsu were air born, but Fawkes caught Harry, and Natsu crashed into Gray, who was on the roof of the magic mobile, and falling onto the ground. Once Harry was let down by Fawkes, he said, "Go follow the train. That man was a member of Eisenwald." Fawkes nodded, and took flight after the train.

Erza rounded on Harry and Natsu after Fawkes took off for the skies. Harry turned to face her when he felt like that there is something – or someone in this case – dangerous is right behind him while Natsu used him as a human shield.

"Why didn't you stay on the train if someone from Eisenwald was on board, Harry?!" Erza demanded, giving Harry the death glare. She turned her glare at Natsu. "And why didn't you?!" Natsu yelped and hid farther behind Harry.

Harry looked her in the eyes with no fear and replied, "I wasn't about to stay on a train when I didn't know if there were more of them. Natsu couldn't fight because of motion sickness, and he didn't know about our mission; you knocked him out, remember? I was in too small a space to really fight as well. So, I left and had Fawkes follow them."

Erza looked guilty for a moment and looked at Natsu. "Sorry, I forgot I knocked you out," she said. She turned to focus on Harry again. "I understand why you didn't stay then. That would've been too risky." She turned to walk back over to the magic mobile and about to tell the others that they should get going.

"Wait, Erza!" Natsu called out, and she turned to face him. "Back on the train. The man that Harry was fighting dropped some weird flute. It looked to be made out of wood with a skull on top that had three eyes," he described.

"You're sure?" Erza asked, and Natsu nodded in confirmation.

Not a moment too soon, Lucy shouted, "I just remembered!"

Everyone jumped at the sudden shout and turned to her. "What are you talking about?" Erza asked.

"I just remembered where I heard the name Lullaby from. I read it in a book somewhere," Lucy started to explain. "Lullaby is a flute created by the dark wizard Zeref. If someone were to play it, then everyone who hears its song will be put to sleep, but not in the normal sense. Its death magic!" she finished.

Everyone has a feeling of dread creep inside them. Harry was the one to break the silence. "That's not good. Who in the world would want something like that? From the sound of it, only the player will live."

"That means they're going to kill their own guild members and everyone else that is in hearing distance! Those monsters!" Natsu yelled the last point.

Harry rolled his eyes. "More likes idiots."

Erza starts to move over to the car again. "Then let's quit stalling and catch up with them!" she ordered. "Hopefully Fawkes will meet up with us and show us where they went."

"Or we could just follow the train tracks," Harry pointed out innocently.

Erza glared at him. "They might go somewhere else when they get to where they need to be."

Harry tilted his head cutely. "We still have to follow the train tracks," he insisted. Erza sighed in defeat after that, he knows he won. "Well then, let's go," Harry said while dragging Natsu into the magic mobile with him.

Erza gets in the front while Gray and Lucy get in the back with Harry and Natsu. When they started moving, Natsu wasn't a happy camper.

"Harry, Gray, kill me," the Dragon Slayer requested. Harry is sitting in the seat next to him, petting his head.

"It'll be okay, the next train stop isn't that far from here," Harry soothed.

"It better be," Natsu panted, breathing in and out slowly.

They get to the next station, but the train was moving again, and no member of Eisenwald was in the crowd.

"Are they still on the train?" Gray asked in wonder.

Harry looked up into the sky to see that Fawkes is following the train still. "Yeah, they're still on the train," he said. "The next stop is Oshibana, isn't it?" Harry asked when he turned to face Erza, who nodded her head yes. "I guess that's where we are going then." They drive off again to get to the next train station at top speeds. Harry turned back to look at Natsu and gave him an apologetic smile. "Sorry man. Looks like your suck in here for a while longer." Natsu groaned in response.


Half way through their ride to Oshibana, Harry noticed that Erza is starting to look at bit pale, and he wasn't the only one.

"Erza, maybe you should let me drive. You'll need your strength when we have to fight Eisenwald," Gray said.

"I agree, you should let one of us drive," Harry added.

"I'm fine, besides we don't have time to stop! If we do, who knows how many people will die!" Erza said, but it sound more like she snapped back at them.

They continued onward toward Oshibana when Happy said, "Hey Lushi, I feel like there is something important that I needed to tell you." Lucy looks at the blue cat, while Harry noticed Natsu trying to claim out the window.

"Oh, and what is that?" Lucy also noticed Natsu hanging out the window. "NATSU! Get back in here or else you'll fell out!"

"That's what I'm hoping for," Natsu forced out. Lucy and Harry are trying to make sure their friend doesn't fall out of the magic mobile by at least holding onto him.

"Let's see," Happy mused, trying to remember what it was that he wanted to tell Lucy. "Something about fish…? No, that isn't it. Lucy's weird…? Fish… I like fish! Wait, no…that's not it. Lucy's weird…"

"Call me weird again, and I will skin you, cat…" Lucy said lowly and threateningly.

Harry turned to Lucy with a sheepish smile. "Don't mind Happy. He's got a one-tracked mind," he said.

Lucy huffed in answer, and helped Harry pull Natsu back into the car.

Not too much longer did it take them to get to Oshibana Station. They get out of the magic mobile, and see a huge crowd flocking around the front of the station.

Harry looked up into the sky to see Fawkes gliding down toward him. He lifted up his arm for the Phoenix to land on. "Are they in the station?" Harry asked.

Fawkes nods. {Yes, they are. They knocked out a few guards while they were at it,} he reported.

"Why is there such a huge crowd?" Harry asked, while watching Erza demands the guards to tell her what was going on around here.

{Eisenwald kicked many people off the train at the last stop, so that's why some of these people are here, but the dark mages also caused a huge ruckus when they arrived. They are waiting for your team to storm in,} explained Fawkes.

Harry scuffed, "Like that doesn't sound like a trap," he said sarcastically. They go inside the station after Erza knock all the rest of the guards out. When they were in they saw a lot of other guards that were knocked out or killed by Eisenwald.

Within a few moments, the Fairy Tail mages made it to a room filled with all members of the dark guild that they are after.

"Well, if it isn't the Fairy Flies," a man with a scythe mocked.

Fawkes pointed his beak at the man. {That human is Erigor. I heard his name being said by that other human you fought on the train, who is named Kageyama.} Harry nodded his head in thanks before turning his focus back on the Reaper.

Lucy put Natsu down on the floor. "Come on, Natsu, wake up! Snap out of it!" she demanded.

"It's no good," Happy said. "With the train ride, the magic mobile, and you carrying him, that's like a triple whammy!"

Lucy turned to glare at him. "I'm not transportation!" she exclaimed.

Erza stepped forward. "What are you planning, Erigor?" she voiced out what the rest of their team was all thinking, even though it should be glaring at them in the face.

Erigor held up the flute with the three-eyed skull on it. "Let me answer that with a question. What do all train stations have?" Erza didn't answer right away, thinking of what they all had. Harry figured it out.

"All train stations have loud speakers… You're going to broadcast Lullaby!" It wasn't a question; Harry knew that it had to be so.

Erigor smirked evilly. "It looks like you got it, fairy fly. And with everyone flocking around outside the station, they'll all hear Lullaby's song to moment I play it, and there is nothing you can do about it."

"That is why we took control of this train station. No one, not even you will stop Erigor from playing Lullaby," Kageyama said mockingly.

Harry heard Natsu finally come around. "I know that voice," the Dragon Slayer muttered.

"I guess that means we'll have to fight you to get to your leader?" Harry questioned with a raised eyebrow. Every member of Eisenwald smirked. "I'll take that as a yes."

Natsu got up from the floor and looked at Kageyama. "You're that guy from the train," he stated.

"Well, if it isn't the fairy fly that couldn't even fight because he was too busy keeping his breakfast down," Kageyama taunted.

Erigor flew up into the air, giving Harry a sense of déjà vu. 'Where have I seen that?' It was times like these that he wishes that he didn't have amnesia.

"I'll leaves these Fairy Flies to you; I, however, am going to play a little song," Erigor said right before he left.

Erza summon a sword, Harry had his wand out, Lucy has a gold key in her hand, and Gray and Natsu got into fight stances with crazy grins on their faces.

"Natsu, Gray, go after Erigor. Leaves these guys to us," Erza ordered. Gray and Natsu were about to complain, but after thinking about it, they realized that they get the chance to fight the boss. So, without complaining like they wanted to, the two mages took off after Erigor the Reaper.

It's short, but hey, better a short chapter than no chapter, right? :) It's been a busy week, so I didn't have all the time in the world to work on this. I hope you all enjoyed it though. Next time there will be a fight.

P.S. "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! ^-^

Natsu: Yay! Christmas is here! XD

Zeref: It's not Christmas yet. Wait a few days.

Enj/Dark: Isn't it almost Voldemort's birthday?

Harry: I believe so…

Natsu: Where is he anyway?

Enj/Dark: It would seem that the guy has a sweet tooth. I found his hand already in the cookie jar.

Harry: What did you do to him? :/

Enj/Dark: Knocked him out, of course. ;)

Zeref: She's the only one crazy enough to do something like that, isn't she? :(

Natsu: Which is why we love her! XD

Enj/Dark: Zeff, could you?

Zeref: Please review.
