Chapter 3

(Levy POV)

"I am Lucy, Lucy Heartfilia and this is Natsu, leader of these dragons," the woman, Lucy, told us.

"And the others," Erza asked her.

"This is Wendy," Lucy told her pointing at the small blue dragon, "The iron dragon over there is Gajeel, the shadow dragon is Rouge, the one with antlers is Sting, the snake is Cobra, and the yellow one is Laxus."

'Why does that name sound so familiar,' I thought then I remembered and I looked at Erza.

"Didn't Master have a grandson named Laxus, he disappeared a few years back?" I asked the red-haired mage.

"Yes, it broke the Master's heart when did it happened, it was around the same time that Master's son, Ivan, was exiled from the guild," Erza told me, when the dragons heard the name Ivan, they started growl and hiss at the name, I looked at the yellow dragon, he was looking at the ground as Lucy tried to calm the others down.

(A/N Team Shadow Gear wasn't around then and Levy had just joined the guild)

"I guess, I better get started on that enchantment, how about I start with Natsu and you, Lucy?" I asked the blond.

"Alright," she told me and I started to work.

"Freed's here, with the Master," Erza told me, as Freed and Master walked into the room.

"I didn't know you were coming too, Master," I told him.

"It is alright, Levy, I didn't tell Erza so she didn't know either, I wanted to see these dragons with my own eyes," Master told me, Freed walked over to me and saw what I was working on. He pulled out the books that he brought with him and started to help me.

"How far have you gotten?" he asked me, looking at my notes.

"Not far enough," I told him, I was having trouble with trying to get one of the enchantments translated.

"Who is she?" Freed asked, pointing at Lucy, who was watching us work.

"That's Lucy, the big red dragon is Natsu and the blue feathery dragon is Wendy," I told him.

"Hello," Lucy greeted him, waving her hand.

"And that," he asked me pointed at me, I turned to see Gajeel looking over at me work.

"That's Gajeel, he is the one who ate those bars over there," I told Freed pointing at Gajeel's cell.

"Miss Lucy?" Master asked Lucy, "You wouldn't happened to be the missing heiress of the Heartfilia Railroad company." Lucy practically snarled at the name.

"I wish nothing to do with that man I call a father," Lucy told him, Natsu growling behind her.

"Sorry, how did you come across Natsu here?" Master asked her, Lucy looked at Natsu, her eyes started to glow green and he stopped growling.

"I met him when I was in the garden," Lucy told him, reaching to pet the dragon's mane, "I was crying in the garden, my mother had just died and I was mourning her. When I felt something touch my hand, I looked at my hand and saw that a small dragon was touching my hand, that was when I met Natsu and his father, Igneel, and they took me away from that house. 

After spending most of my childhood with Igneel and Natsu it was time for Natsu to make his own pack, so some of Igneel's pack member's children joined Natsu's pack to start it off. They were Gajeel, Rouge, Sting, and Wendy. Grandeeney, Wendy's mother, made sure that we would take care of her when she joined us. Well along the way, we met with Kinana and Cobra soon after we formed the pack, Laxus joined soon after that, but then one day these human mages came and they captured us. Luckily, Kinana was able to get away, but I was caught instead, I used myself as a distraction so that she could get away." She told us her story and at one point she started to cry, "The sad thing is we don't even know if she is safe or not, but I am glad that she was able to get away."

(A/N When they met up with Laxus he was not a teenager but after the dragon lacrima was implanted in him, it was before Mirajane joined the guild or just after)

"I am sorry you had to go through that Lucy," Master told her, Natsu started to nuzzle her face trying to wipe the tears from her face.

"It is alright, it wasn't your fault," Lucy told him, "It was those damn scientists and that man, Ivan."

"Ivan?" Master asked her, "As in Ivan Dreyar." The dragons roaring in fury at the name, once again. 

"Yes, I only saw him a few times, but his guild, Raven Tail, financed this whole thing. I only saw a few of his guild members but there was one person that I think is a good person, and that is because I saw the look in her eyes when she saw us, she actual comes by every now and then, she is the only human contact that we have other than you guys," Lucy told us.

"She smells of giants and fire," Gajeel told me.

"Then it is my fault," Master told Lucy bowing down, "I am ashamed to say that Ivan Dreyar is my son, I exiled him from my guild when I discovered that he was harming his fellow guild members, and I haven't heard of him since."

"You couldn't have stopped that bastard," I heard someone say, we all looked over to one of the dragons and saw that the voice came from the yellow dragon, "You didn't know what he was doing to us, Gramps." 

"I am still sorry for the trouble he caused," Master told him.


(Makarov POV)

Is that him, maybe, I will wait for him to tell me. Is that you, Laxus? My dear grandson, what did that son of mine do to you?

(Time Skip)

(Levy POV)

"Have you figured anything out yet," I asked Freed.

"I think so," he told me, he got up from our books and notes and walked over to Lucy's cell, she had fallen asleep on Natsu waiting for us to break the code. Wendy, who was sleeping in her lap, lifted up her head and walked over to where Freed was, causing Lucy to stir in the process.


(Freed POV)

I walked over to the cell bars to rewrite the old enchantments and hopefully be able to break them. I saw that the small blue dragon, Wendy, I think Miss Levy called her, was looking at me in wonder. Thinking against using my rapier to rewrite the enchantment, I took out a light pen that Miss Levy gave me and started to rewrite the enchantment. The little dragon was still looking at me, staring, Miss Lucy had joined the little dragon in staring at me, I looked away from those brown eyes filled with hope, and continued with my work. I had finished my work and was going to finish with the last rune and I looked up to see piercing green eyes and I jumped back a bit to see that it was the red dragon staring at me now. I cautiously went back to work on the last rune and opened the bars, as the purple runes from the enchantments started to disappear from the bars. The metal dragon walked up to the metal bars and sniffed them, he opened his mouth and bit into the bars, he chewed it for a moment then swallowed it. What looked like a smirk appeared on his face, and he let out what sounded like a laugh, he let out a cheerful growl and the other dragons let out joyous roars, the little blue dragon let out cheerful chirping, jumping around the cell in a gleeful gait.

"You did it, Freed, now we can move on to the muzzle and chains," Miss Levy told me, "They should be a similar enchantment."

"No work on the other cells first, do our chains last, it will be much faster than just working on us, Levy can work on our chains and muzzles, you free the others," Lucy told me, looking at the rest of the dragons who were still in their cages.

"Alright, Miss Lucy," I told her and I walked over to the other cells, "Which one do you want me to do first."

"Do Laxus's first then, Sting's and Rouge's, then Cobra," she told me, I walked over to the cell that the yellow dragon was in and I started to rewrite the enchantment.

I had just finished rewriting it and the letters started to fly off the bars as the enchantment disappeared, when I felt something pulling my pant leg then I was suddenly pulled back and the cell doors of the flew off. I looked behind me to see that the blue dragon had a piece of my pant leg in its mouth and the metal dragon's tail was around my waist. I looked back at the cell to see the yellow dragon in all of his glory. 

He was a huge dragon covered in scars and markings, on his left shoulder were black markings, and his large wings covered his lower body, he was covered in claw marks. Over his right eye there was a scar, and his blond mane covered his head. He had two huge grey horns with smaller horns around his head, his blue eyes looking around at the room outside his cell, pieces of his chains that once held him covered his body. I looked over to the others and I saw Erza running over to me.

"Freed are you okay?" she asked me, worried.

"I am fine," I told her, I looked over at where Miss Lucy was and I saw her pulling at her chains, eyes a piercing green, the red dragon beside her was growling at Laxus.

"Laxus, you could have at least warned him before you did that, he is not like us," she told him, her eyes a blazing green, her voice had another overlaying it, making it sound like two people were talking at once, "He could have gotten hurt."

Laxus growled softly at the red dragon, then turned to me and bowed his head apologetically.

"It is fine, I wasn't hurt," I told the dragon, he lifted his head and turned to look at Master, "I will work on the others," I told the others, and walked over to the black dragon's cell, he looked at me as did the white dragon next to him. I freed the shadow dragon and did the same for the white dragon, they walked out of their cells and then went to Miss Lucy as fast as they could and ran into her arms. I noticed that they are not that much bigger than the blue dragon, maybe it was because they were males or it was because they were only a little older than the blue dragon.

"How old are they?" Miss Levy asked Miss Lucy, probably thinking the same thing.

"They are just a few years older than Wendy; they look to me as their big sister so they can be a bit attached to me," Miss Lucy told her, the white dragon gave a happy chirp, I couldn't see the black dragon that well even with Miss Levy's light, but I could see the white dragon clearly. Unlike Laxus's grey-blue eyes, the white dragon had sky blue eyes that reminded me of Miss Mirajane, it had a long off-white mane that went down to its spine and ended in a tuft of hair at the end of its tail, on its back was a pair of angel wings, it had a pair of deer antlers on its head and a small scar over its right eye, it nuzzled its head into Miss Lucy and cooed happily.

"I was worried about you, too," Miss Lucy told the white dragon petting its head.

"You saw them every day," I asked her, out of curiosity.

"I wasn't worried about not seeing them, before the men left, they did something to Sting and Rouge, and to me," she told us, grabbing her sleeves. "I don't know what they did to Sting and Rouge, but they did this to me," she explained as she pulled down on of her sleeves and we saw golden swirls around her shoulders, and as we got a closer look the swirls went to down her arms, each of the swirls connected to a key.

"How many of them are there?" Erza asked Miss Lucy, looking at the markings.

"188," Miss Lucy told us, "I am a celestial mage, so I can use the power of the stars, they took my keys, from what I can remember, they told me that they took the blood from a celestial spirit and mixed it with some Stellanium (A/N if you have watched Dragon Cry you will know what Stellanium is) and they started to inject me with the mixture. I guess they didn't find what they wanted because they locked me away after the experiment."


(Gray POV)

"That is horrible," Levy exclaimed, when she heard what happened to Lucy.

'What were they looking for when they did that?' I thought, wait, where is Juvia, I haven't heard from her in a while, a long while.

"Hey guys where is Juvia?" I asked them, Erza looked at me.

"Now that I think about it, I haven't heard from her in a while," Erza said.


(In a hallway of the house)

(Juvia POV)

"Brat, come on, you are almost there, just go to the door on the left," the voice told Juvia. Juvia remembered when she started to hear the voice when she entered the house.

Flashback 

We had just entered the stairs, Juvia started to hear someone calling her.

"Hello? Anyone, come one, free us, we need to get to the brat," they said, Juvia turned her head and started to look for the voice.

"Hello?" Juvia asked the voice. There was a silence, so Juvia thought that she was hearing things.

"Can you hear me?" the voice asked Juvia.

"Yes," Juvia answered.

"Great, okay listen to my directions, go outside of the basement and go down the hallway on the left, there will be a door to another part of the basement," the voice told Juvia, she followed the voice's directions.

Flashback End

Juvia had found the door and started down the stairs.

"Okay now take a right and then you will find a locked door, you will need to find a way through it," the voice told Juvia, Juvia found the door and tried the door but it was locked. She looked at the lock and then turned into water and passed through the lock. Juvia turned around and saw multiple tubes of glass filled with golden liquid. Juvia got closer to one of the tubes, it was the one with a fancy M at the top, and she saw that something was in it. It was a mermaid with blue hair and tail, she wore golden jewelry, and tubes were going into her body, she looked really weak.

"You can stop staring at me now," the voice told Juvia in an annoyed tone. Juvia realized that the voice was coming from the mermaid.

"Help the others they are in the other tubes, then help you can help me, you just need to get the key out of the bottom of the container." Juvia nodded her head and walked over to the first tube, it had a what looked like a ball of yarn (Leo's sign) and looked inside, inside there was a man that was wearing a torn-up suit, he had a pair of cat ears coming from the top of his head, a lion tail was coming out of his suit, and a pair of glasses floating in the liquid. Just like the mermaid he had tubes going into his body, at the bottom of his containment tube there was a golden key and a name Leo the Lion.

Just like the mermaid told her, Juvia removed the key, and the man disappeared. Juvia continued doing the same, there were many different creatures in each of the tanks.

A centaur wearing a torn-up robin hood outfit, Sagittarius the Archer, in the tank with an arrow sign. A pink haired maid with chains around her wrist, Virgo the Maiden, in the tank with the symbol that looked like a m and a p put together. A minotaur wearing golden armor, Taurus the Golden Bull, in the tank with a circle under a bowl. A pink haired ram girl with cloven feet, Aries the White Ram, in a tank with a symbol that looked like a waterspout. A man with metal scorpion tail that had two guns at the end, Scorpio the Scorpion, in a tank with a m that ended with an arrow. Two tiny blue haired children with golden halos over their heads, Gemini the Twins, in a tank with the roman number for 2. A man with long crab legs coming out of his back with black and red hair floating around the liquid, Cancer the Crab, was in a tank with the symbol that looked like a sideways 6 and 9. A goat man in a torn-up butler suit with a fish tail and fins around his legs and arms, Capricorn the Sea Goat, in the tank with a funny 7 on it. An eagle holding a compass, Pyxis the Compass, in a tank with a compass. A poodle puppy, Canis Minor, in a tank with a snowman head. A woman holding a lyre in a torn-up dress with her caramel hair floating around the tank and she had huge, white wings that were tangled up in the wires and tubes in the tank, Lyra the Lyre. A destroyed grandfather clock that had shattered glass doors, Horologium the Clock, and an old man holding a cross and a book, Cruz the Southern Cross.

After Juvia freed the others, she headed back to free the last one, the mermaid. Juvia noticed that she had patches of blue scales all over her skin, and a torn-up skirt was around her tail. Juvia approached the containers and reached for the key, Aquarius the Water-Bearer.

"Thank you, now take us to the brat," the voice, Aquarius told Juvia, "She is in the basement that your friends went into." and then Juvia pulled the key, freeing the mermaid. 

"How is Juvia supposed to get you out of this room?" Juvia asked but no one answered her, she walked over to the door and she started to try to pick the door open.


________________________________

Okay, I am sorry I took so long, but here is a large chapter just for you.

WAIT before you turn to the next chapter when it is released read what is next.

Yes, I know that some of the celestial spirits look different, I did that on purpose. I am going to make the relationship between the dragons and Lucy, other than Natsu, a sibling relationship. Sting and Rouge are 16, Wendy is 13, Natsu and Lucy are 20, Laxus, Gajeel, and Cobra/Erik are 21, now, but Wendy was 10 when they first left the care of their parents.

The updates for this story will probably be very far apart, I will try to update at least once a week, but no promises.

I don't own Fairy Tail
