Natsu's P. O. V
"Where's Lucy" I screamed as my friends tried to calm me down to no avail. She had disappeared and once we had won she hadn't been there.

"Natsu I know you want to find Lucy and so do we but we need to make a plan of action first. We can't just blindly run into a possible trap. If we did we wouldn't be able to help Lucy" stated Erza.

"I agree" agreed the little girl beside me whose name was Charlotte. Everyone was agreeing with Erza and although I knew she had a point, I just didn't care. I had to find Lucy, I had to save her, I had to protect her future!

But if Lucy were here she would agree with Erza. "Fine" I muttered, crossing my arms and pouting. "Okay, does anyone have a plan of Zeref's lair?" Erza asked our small ragtag group.

"Well we have a possible layout, we don't know if it's the actual place but it's the most probable option" said Charlotte. Erza nodded and Charlotte took the map out of a small pouch hanging around her waist.

Within seconds we were all crouched around Charlotte and the said map. It showed multiple floors full of all shapes, sizes and sorts of rooms. Charlotte pointed to one of the largest rooms on the map and pointed out "that's the throne room, and what do you bet that she'll probably be taken there at some point".

"But what if she isn't there? Juvia wishes to rescue Lucy-san as soon as possible" Juvia piped up. But this time it was Erza that answered "worse case scenario Lucy isn't there, but at least Zeref will probably be there and we'll be in a room where it's easier to capture his little, evil lair".

We all silently agreed with Erza but didn't dare pipe up as Erza and Charlotte continued to ramble on about their plans of attack and sabotage. After what seemed to be a century the two finally concluded with a "and that's the plan everyone, go it?" followed by a "okay, let's do this"!

Like some cliche book about the power of friendship we all stuck our hands in the middle of the tiny circle we seemed to have made and then "1, 2, 3 let's do this"! And then we ran off to go defeat Zeref and to save my precious Lucy.
