Pain sliced through Natsu's left bicep.

"What the hell?!" He yelled, grasping his bleeding arm.

She woman jumped back after her attack and licked the bloody knife.

The rest of the guild all stood, ready to take action.

"Who are you?" Erza stepped forward.

"I have been informed that Natsu Dragoneel has important information concerning my quest." The woman ignored her request.

"Says who?" Natsu demanded.

No one could have predicted her answer. The name of a ghost, lost to time. Long forgotten and out of mind. The name that drove fear into everyone.

"Lord Zeref."

Aghast by the memory of the terrible wizard, everyone thought they were rid of him for good. Never to worry about his interference again, but they were wrong.

"Zeref is gone." Erza bellowed, her voice almost cracking.

"That may be true, but his word still stands." The cryptically cloaked woman stood proudly.

"Who are you?" The Master repeated the question. He was sweating, his fists clenched by his side, something about this woman unsettled him.

"My name is Savina Morelli and I have business with Natsu Dragneel." She lifted her red knife back towards the dragon slayer.

"Im afraid I cannot let you." The entire guild stood in-front of Natsu, blocking Savina's way.

The woman simply smirked and almost chuckled. "I already have what I came for."

She swiftly twirled the bloody dagger and dipped it into a clear liquid. The thick red fluid sunk gracefully to the bottom of the jar. As it stirred the mixture bonded and revealed a different color, one not normally associated with the human body. Natsu's' blood had turned blue.

A confused awe washed over all present.

"Finally!" Savina shouted in triumph. "The bearer of blue blood."

The attention snapped back to the laughing entity.

"My work here is done, for now. It seems I must pledge my goodbyes. Thank you for the warm welcome." The entire guild scowled as she lightly waved her hand, staring her down; as if she were a rejected moldy pear.

She slowly moved towards the doors, the crowd barely giving her room as she advanced.

Taking advantage of the movement, Lucy rushed to Natsu, immediately dressing his wound. Her fingers worked precisely; cleaning and wrapping it tight. She had attended dozens of wounds, more than she could count. She knew exactly how to tend each of her friends, and how their systems would react to different healing methods. As Lucy worked, she accidentally caught a glimpse of the strange woman who had attacked Natsu. Looking up she saw her halt, taking notice of Lucy. The two girls started each other down, Lucy glared in disgust. However, Savina seemed shocked, almost as if she had seen a ghost.

"What is your name?" Savina asked in wonder.

Lucy had no intention in answering, luckily Master captured her attention . "Savina! It is time for you to leave."

"Yes, yes." Savina waves him off. "I will be back, Fairy Tail."

Forgetting about their awkward confrontation Savina rushed out the front doors. Leaving the rest of the Guild flabbergasted and utterly speechless.
