~Sting's Pov~ 

Rogue and I were exploring the town. I had a huge wound in my side from Mira. She really was more powerful than Laxus. Both of us struggled to hold our ground when facing her. Rogue was asking me many questions worried about my health. Mira did bandage the wound she gave before letting our training end early. Laxus and her went out on their own. The thought of my brother finally having a crush on someone just made me want to smirk. "Sting" Rogue spoke loudly as it snapped me out of my thoughts.

I looked at him as he only sighed. "If you keep thinking of ways to tease Laxus you really are going to get killed" Rogue reminded me as I only chuckled replying with 'it will be fine'. My brother even when out of control would never kill me. Hurt me a lot, yes. Killing me, no. He had a strong sense of family, both of us did. Mostly when it came to Lucy but when needed we did for each other. From what Mira told me, Laxus was worried about me like crazy when captured. He even marched out of his Clan ready to kill anyone who would stop him from saving me.

That idiot. He would do anything to save family members. He didn't care if he had to kill or torture others. I knew Lucy wouldn't be able to see me the same if I took someone's life when it wasn't needed. I couldn't stand the idea of her hating me. The way my brother talked to Jiemma before killing him. The way he was so sure about what he was doing, how he didn't even hesitate to kill that bastard. I knew he was a traitor and needed to be put down but we could've let him stand trial. He was able to do the things I couldn't.

That I didn't mind much. It was needed to protect Lucy. "Who'd you think will be our next Clan Master?" I soon asked as Rogue shrugged saying he didn't care. He was always in a chill mood. While we were walking around we would talk about small things. We would always end up linking to the Clan. Sabertooth was in a really bad spot. Makarov was in full charge but wasn't forcing Sabertooth into a new Fairy Tail which shocked all of us. He was letting us stay as our own Clan, letting us vote for a new leader.

We were all under Jiemma for a long time. We were to think like that bastard a couple of times. I wished many times that I killed that bastard instead of my brother. We soon went into a small side street cafe for some late lunch as we started talking about training. From what I learnt, Fairy Tail training was way more intense than Sabertooth's but I also learnt the training was different for each rank. Makarov was putting me in the top Rank S with Laxus and Mira, their training was insane. What I was doing was their easy version of Rank S training even.

It was as if they were trying to really kill their people. Makarov really pushed his high ranks to the fullest. It explained how Fairy Tail was the strongest all these years. "I am worried about Laxus slightly" I soon spoke sighing getting Rogue to raise an eyebrow. Soon we had two massive fry-ups placed on the table in front of us as I took a deep breath. "Knowing Lucy, she will joining the Rebels to the very end and maybe even grow feelings for E.N.D. Laxus would lose his temper knowing the deadliest demon alive is her boyfriend" I soon explained. 

Rogue slowly nodding and pointed out that I would also lose it. I only laughed agreeing as we started eating but still talked about the topic. Laxus and I didn't like the idea of Lucy with the Rebels in the first place but we both knew this was her choice. If she was being forced then we would've acted out already. Rogue was pointing out that I needed to work on that small problem of being overprotective. I only laughed in return. "Sting Eucliffe?" we heard a voice behind me as Rogue and I both went to summon our weapons.

I turned around fast, seeing a tall man standing there. The man had black hair and tanned skin. He was sporting a unique-looking beard; a chin curtain, with several lines of facial hair around his mouth shooting upwards in an odd pattern. He was wearing an ornate cloak along with a dress shirt and an ascot tied in a full Windsor knot. "Who the hell are you and what do you want?" I asked harshly as he chuckled as a wicked smirk grew on his face. Rogue was already on his feet about to summon his weapon and call for backup. 

"I am Ivan Dreyar the son of Makarov Dreyar the Third Master of Fairy Tail" this Ivan spoke as I remembered Makarov saying that Precht Gaebolg had turned his son evil. I got up on my feet, summoning my sword in a second, ready to attack. "Now, now no need to fight. I am here with information about your little sister" Ivan spoke as something in me broke. I moved fast pushing Ivan into the wall, the end of my sword at his throat. Rogue was shouting at me to calm down as I then only noticed that the other people in the cafe were frozen in place.

"Mr Eucliffe you don't even know what your sister's nature really is do you? The Rebels know but not you or your older brother?" Ivan asked as I was glaring at him. I ordered him to spill the information in a harsh tone of voice as Ivan only gave an evil type laugh. "I like the look in your eyes" Ivan only spoke as I nearly snapped and killed him on spot. Ivan soon asked to sit and speak like normal people. When I didn't reply or even move he sighed. A blast of paper coming from his sleeves pinning me and Rogue to the wall of the cafe.

The paper was shaped as people, it being stronger than myself. "I came here with an offer. If you don't give the answer I like or try anything I will have no choice but to kill you both here and now" Ivan then spoke with a chuckle as he looked as if he was having the time of his life. My sword was still in my hand as I gave out a blast of light. I noticed Rogue gave out a blast of dark. I was blinded by the darkness and light but when it was cleared out, we were still pinned to the wall. The paper not even having a dent in it. 

Soon there was a knife to my neck as Ivan was in front of me smirking even more. "My boss wants you to join us. In return we will inform you of what your sister really is and help you protect her from being used by Hunters, Rebels and Darkness" Ivan then spoke as I snapped hearing how he was talking about my sister. I was trying to break free from this trap as I as glaring at him even more. "WHAT? SHE IS A NORMAL FUCKING PERSON YOU BASTARD!" I shouted in utter rage as Rogue was snapping at me to calm down.

Ivan only laughed at me. "The Heartfilla curse still is a thing huh?" Ivan asked confusing me and shutting me up. Rogue and I were looking at him confused as Ivan's smirk only grew even more. "Seems you don't wanna hear me out, sorry I'm gonna have to finish you off" Ivan spoke about to cut my throat until a huge blast of lightning came through the door, sending Ivan to the other side of the cafe. Ivan's body went through the wall separating the dining area from the kitchen as I turned my head to see my brother.

One arm forward, his hand in the shape of a fist as lightning was bouncing off it. "How about fighting someone head on instead of being a whimp" Laxus snapped harshly as Mira was behind him, holding her sweet smile while my brother had no emotion on his face but his eyes held pure rage. "Lucky I called them when you snapped the first time" Rogue sighed as I thanked him for doing so. Laxus walked over blasting the paper with his lightning but it had no effect on it. "That's annoying" Mira spoke.

"More like bullshit" Laxus muttered turning his head as we saw Ivan getting on his feet. Blood coming off his head, dripping onto the ground. "Ivan Dreyar, wanted to murder of many innocent, Hunters and Rebels" Mira spoke as Ivan only laughed slightly his small knife turning into a sword. Laxus moved forward while ordering Mira to free me and Rogue. She was in some shock as Laxus summoned his spear into one of his hands. "That offer you gave means you bastards are trying to give fake information or you really know something, you're gonna tell me what that is" Laxus then spoke harshly and loudly.

Ivan, was so fucked.
