Sting's P.O.V.

I whispered my plan to Rogue. He smirked at me and we both got ready to attack. Rosart was just standing there and he looked at us.

"What now? Are you gonna flee or something???" He said and stopped smiling.

"Rogue... Now." I said really quietly and luckily Rogue heard me.

We turned on the dragonforce and we started running towards him. Rogue ran at the other side of the room and I stopped moving.

"Eh? What is this?" Rosart was confused.

Rogue quickly turned into a shadow and started going in circle around Rosart before he could teleport.

"Stop that!!!" Rosart tried to teleport, but Rogue kicked him everytime he tried.

"Now Sting!" Rogue yelled at me.

"Yeah!!!" I responded.

I started creating my attack. Rogue kept Rosart in the circle. My magic slowly increased more until it was a size of my fist.

"Rogue! Hold him there!!!" I started running towards Rosart and Rogue.

Rogue kept circling Rosart.

"Hey! What are you doing!? Stop that!!!" Rosart started getting angry.

"Now!!!" Rogue yelled.

I jumped. "White dragon's fist!!!"

I saw Rosart's face turn pale. Rogue jumped away from Rosart. My attack hit the roof above him.

"Ha! You fucking missed!" Rosart burst out laughing like crazy.

"No I didn't!" I smirked and jumped to punch the roof once again.

Roof cracked and Rosart's smile dropped. The roof fell apart and landed right on top of Rosart who didn't get enough time to teleport. We waited for a little time, but no moving, sounds or anything.

"I think we won..." Rogue said.

"Yes. He's not getting up anymore." I said and started holding my arm again.

"Are you okay?" Rogue tapped my shoulder.

"Uh, yeah... I'm just afraid that my arm is broken..." I sighed.

Suddenly ruins of the roof started glowing blue. Me and Rogue both were frightened and we jumped backwards.

"You are so dead!!!!" Rosart popped out of the ruins and he was creating a glowing magic ball on his hands.

"How!? That was so much weight that he should have crushed!!!" Rogue yelled.

Rosart smiled once again and he giggled. "Time explosion!!!" his glowing attack kinda like teleported and it was right in front of me.

I closed my eyes, I really thought his attack would hit me.

"Sting!" I heard Rogue's voice.

I felt the heat of Rosart's magic right in front of my face. I was ready to take it, I couldn't escape anymore.

"Watch out!" Sudden female voice shouted next to me.

I heard how she took a heavy breath.

"Moon blast!!!"

I opened my eyes. I saw a girl blasting light blue magic towards Rosart's. Her attack hit him and Rosart flew backwards and lost his consciousness. Rogue stood there with his mouth wide open. I looked at the girl who saved us. She was really pretty. Long, reddish blond hair, Big bright green eyes, really happy appearance. I smiled at her. 

"Um, Thanks..." I said. 

"No worries, I had my reason." She said determinedly. 

"oh, by the way... who're you?" Rogue stepped next to us.

"I am Luna." Luna shared bright smile. 

"I'm sorry if I'm rude, but... what kinda magic was that???" I asked her, she looked  at me and sighed a little.

"I am Luner dragonslayer. Don't ask anymore about me or my magic. I am here, because one lovely boy is in danger. I heard about this "War'against Zeref" And of course I came to help the one I really like." Luna smiled. 

"Who is it?" Rogue looked suspicious.

"Who?" Luna turned her gaze at Rogue.

"The one you came to help..." Rogue said.

"Ah, He is a firemage, who happens to be dragonslayer just like me and he is the one who Zeref kidnapped." Luna told us.

"Natsu-san..." I said quietly. "I wonder if he's okay."

"Well, I am going to help him, so... You coming with me" Luna asked.

I looked at Rogue who nobbed. "Okay, we're coming." I said.

Lucy's P.O.V.

"Look!" Wendy screamed. 

I slowly turned my eyes towards the way she was pointing. My Heart skipped few beats as I saw him.

"Natsu!!!" I screamed and ran next to him. 

He was lifeless, he was just laying there like a body. My eyes were filled with tears as I hold him.

"You can't do this...no..." I whispered. 

"Lucy..." Erza kneeled beside me and Natsu. 

"Wait.... Look!" Gajeel said suddenly.

Natsu started couching violently.

"Natsu! You're awake!" Erza yelled with surprised face.

Natsu breathed heavily and his eyes were thightly closed.

"Where does it hurt? Are you bleeding anywhere?" Wendy asked as she started healing Natsu's body.

Carla and Panther lily stayed quiet and just looked from behind. I noticed a few wounds on Natsu's head and chest, but he wasn't bleeding that badly. Natsu's eyes opened. He gazed at the roof with his mouth a little bit open. My eyes teared up by seeing him suffer.

"Natsu?" I reached my hand to touch his forehead, but just when my fingers touched his skin, I had to pull my hand away. "Ouch!!!"

"What?" Erza grabbed my hand and looked at it.

"It's burned. His skin is so hot..." I said.

"Let me try to help." Gray said and stepped next to Natsu.

Gray used his magic to cool Natsu down, but Gray's ice turned into water immediatly.

"This isn't working!" Gray started panicking because his magic wasn't helping.

"Calm down." Gajeel sighed. "Look guys, the good thing is that we found him."

"Oh my gosh! His skin!" Wendy backed away.

Natsu's skin was literally melting. He still kept his eyes open, but he slowly opened his mouth and curled into a ball.

"AAAAAARGH!!!!" Natsu started screaming.

"What is going on!?" I jumped backwards as red flames started surrounding Natsu.

"I don't know! Maybe it's Zeref's magic!?"

Natsu started peeling off his own skin and flesh.

"Natsu! Stop! You're hurting yourself!" Erza tried to stoo him, but the heat pushed her away everytime she tried.

We were all horrified about what we saw next. A black smoke and fire appeared in front of Natsu. Zeref stepped out of it.

"Hello." He said with overly calm voice.

"Zeref! Get away from him!!!" Gray yelled, with rage in his eyes.

"Sorry, I can't do that. He is in pain, and I am the one to ease his pain." Zeref said.

"You're a monster!" I screed at him.

"I know that I am. I knew it already when my story started. You are just a little ones, who doesn't know anything about this bigger thing what is going on. This may sound weird or something, but Natsu is a huge part of my past and this moment and even my future." Zeref's eyes wandered around the room carefully.

"What are you talking about?" Gajeel dared to speak.

"Natsu... Raise." Zeref commanded.

Natsu stopped screaming, he opened his eyes. Natsu was bloody, he had scars everywhere on his body. Deep wounds what he made himself. He started moving, he got up, but kept his head down.

"Natsu, how do you feel?" Zeref asked, he sounded almost too happy.

Growling, painful and evil sound anwsered.

"Fine........master"
