"I don't believe I can take on an entire guild myself," Erza spoke, "That's why I asked for your help. We're going to storm the Eisenwald guild!"
You smiled excitingly.

"Sounds interesting!" Gray said.

"I can't wait!" You added, practically jumping in your seat. You sweat dropped over at Lucy who was sweating profusely. Plue, one of her Celestial Spirits, wasn't doing any better.

"I shouldn't have come," she said.

"Lucy! Your juice!" Happy said.

"It's sweat!"

After that, the train stopped at another station. At that time, you were also served lunch. Just a simple sandwich that you inhaled immediately. Natsu continued to sleep on your lap.

"If it's not rude to ask, what kind of magic do you use, Erza?" Lucy asked.

"It's not rude," she replied.

"Erza's magic is pretty! It makes her enemies bleed a lot!" Happy said cheerfully.

"You call that pretty?"
Erza took a small piece of her strawberry cake.

"Personally, I think Gray's magic is prettier," she said.

"Really?" He inquired, placing his closed fist on top of his open palm. A magic circle appeared before frost rolled off of his hands. He removed one of them and the Fairy Tail insignia sat in his hand. He let it float over to Lucy.

"Wow!" She gasped.

"Ice magic," he explained.

"That reminds me," Erza said to you, "Have you been using your magic lately?"

"You know what her magic is?" Lucy asked. She shook her head no.

"No. No one does except the master. She refuses to tell anyone."
You just shrugged.

"It's complicated," you replied, "And yes, I have. Not a whole lot, though. I've been on easy missions, so I see no need to."

"I see. Make sure your magic prowess doesn't wither with disuse," she said. You nodded.

"Don't worry. Once you learn magic it's hard to unlearn it."

The train stopped at Onibas Station not long after. After the five of you got off of the train, you began walking.

"Are the Eisenwald guys still in this town?" Gray asked.

"I don't know," Erza replied, "That's what we're about to find out.

"This is going to be a wild-goose chase," Lucy spoke.

"Maybe, but doesn't that make it more fun?" You smiled at her. She looked at you, unsure.

"Perhaps..."

"Huh? Where's Natsu?" Happy asked from Erza's luggage. All of you quickly turned around to see the train leaving with him still on board.

"Oh, I forgot about him," you said.

"HE WAS LAYING ON YOUR LAP!!!" Lucy exclaimed.

"Here, hold this!" You shoved your bag into Gray's arms.

"Huh—!? Wait a minute—!"
You took off after the train, running faster than it was accelerating. Before it could move past your range, you quickly jumped over the top. Grabbing the roof, you swung your legs toward the window. The glass shattered as you cannon-balled your way into a cart.

"Okay, where is he?" You murmured, looking left and right. A burst of magic energy drew you to the cart behind the one you were in. You ran down the aisle and burst through both set of metal doors. In front of you was a guy with shadow tentacles surrounding him. Lying on the floor a few feet away was Natsu.

"Hey! What the fuck's your problem, bitch!?" You yelled. The guy turned around to look at you.

"Huh? Who are—" One look at your face was all he needed for him to back up a step.

"Draconia!" He cried, face contorting in fear. Your expression darkened.

"You better back up motherfucker before I—" The train suddenly jerked. The guy and Natsu went flying to the floor. You managed to catch yourself. Something wooden clanked on the boards. You looked over and saw a flute. One carved into a skull with three eyes.

'The Lullaby!' You thought.

"You've seen it!" The guy said. You ran towards him.

"Why do you have something like that, asshat!" You aimed a kick at him. He crossed his arms over his face.

"Guard Shadow!" Shadow fists appeared and enclosed around him. Your kick clashed with it. You released a magic burst, causing the cart you were in to explode. The roof was blown off and the seats were ruined. He was also knocked back.
Natsu revived and stood up behind you.

"Are you alright, Y/n?" He asked.

"Yeah," you replied, bending down to pick up the Lullaby.

"Damn you!" A large shadow fell over the flute and snatched it away before you could grab it. A wave of anger flowed through you.

"You!"
He shrieked in fear, scrambling back like a dog.

"Our emergency stop was due to a false alarm," the lady over the intercom said, "We will depart again shortly."

"Crap! I'm out of here!" Natsu reached up to grab his bags. You looked at the guy before sighing and running over to Natsu.

"Wait you!" The guy exclaimed, "You'll pay for messing with the Eisenwald guild!"
You stopped to turn to him.

"So. You're with the Eisenwald guild?"

"EEK!!!"

"I'll teach you to mock Fairy Tail!" Natsu exclaimed, "Let's take this outside!" Before anyone could do anything, the train began moving again. Immediately, Natsu almost threw up. You heard the faint motor of a car alongside the train.

"Let's go, Natsu!" You said, pulling him to the window.

"Natsu! Y/n!" You heard Lucy call. You pushed him out of the window first. You followed. You landed gracefully on the car's windshield while Natsu butted heads with Gray before flying off. Erza skidded the car to a stop.

"Natsu! You all right?!" She asked.

"Aye..."

"What about you, Y/n?" She looked at you. You nodded down at her.

"Yes. I'm fine."

~
The others got out of the car to check on Natsu and Gray who were now standing.

"That hurt, you idiot!" Gray exclaimed.

"Shut up! How dare you leave me behind?!" Natsu retorted.

"Why can't you be more graceful like Y/n?!"
You snorted from the sidelines.

"My apologies. But you don't appear to be hurt. I'm glad," Erza said, pulling him into her chest. His head thunked against her armor.

"I'm not all right! Some weirdo attacked me on the train!" Natsu said, pulling away rubbing the back of his head.

"Weirdo?" Lucy inquired.

"He was the one who dragged the ones who tried to eat Happy away," you said.

"Said he was with Eisenwald," Natsu finished.

"You fool!!!!!" Erza slapped the shit out of him, sending him flying to the ground. She didn't try to slap you.

"We're trying to go after Eisenwald! Why did you let him go?!" She turned to look at you at the last part.

"The train started moving," you explained calmly, "Natsu would've been dead weight to me. It's not hard to take someone who's sick as shit hostage."
With a sigh, she walked over to the vehicle and strapped on the wristband.

"He was on the train, you say? We're going after it!" She announced. You jogged over to her and hopped into the seat next to her.

"Don't mind me."
The car started.

"Why did you let him get away, Y/n?" She asked you seriously. Your expression went flat.

"You want me to be honest or do you want me to lie?"
Her stare was the only reply you needed.

"My reputation proceeds me," you said, "He'll go back and tell his guild mates that I'm with you." You smiled brightly at her.

"This should make the job easier, wouldn't you say?"

"Erigor." Kageyama stepped off of the train and Kunogi Station.

"Kageyama," Erigor greeted back. He turned. "I heard you were returning aboard this train. This wreckage, though... did something happen?"

"I can explain later. First, have a look at this." Kageyama reached into his jacket and pulled out the flute. "I managed to break the seal." He handed Erigor the flute.

"This is the forbidden Lullaby?" Erigor looked at it with a smirk.

"That's not the only thing," Kageyama said.

"Huh?" Erigor looked at him curiously.

"Draconia knows what Lullaby is."
Erigor narrowed his eyes at him.

"Draconia... you mean Y/n L/n?" He inquired, "Crap. That's not good."

Ja ne!
