Chapter 6

After the Oracion Seis left, they found out that Erza had been badly infected by Cubelious's poison. After a heated argument with Gray and Lyon whether or not to cut Erza's arm off (Erza suggested it), Gray won after Carla told them that only Wendy could save her with her sky magic.

After that, Hibiki helped up split up to find Wendy and the Oracion Seis's base.

Luna was split up with Natsu, Gray, Kat, and Carla, Ren was with Eve and Ichiya, Jura was with Sherry and Lyon, and Hibiki was with Lucy and Erza.

"So, Luna, you're a dragon slayer?" Natsu asked as he nonchalantly put his arms behind his head. They were walking through the darker side of the forest.

Luna nodded. "Yep. I also heard that you were one. Did your dragon happen to disappear?"

Pain filed Natsu's eyes. "Yeah. Igneel disappeared on the year 777."

"Mines, too. So, about Wendy," Luna looked up towards Carla. "I also heard that she's a dragon slayer. Did she mention anything about her dragon?"

Carla shook her head in response. "No, all she mentioned about her was that her name was Grandine. That's it."

"Is that why they took her?" Gray asked as he put his hands in his pockets. His shirt somehow disappeared.

"As reckless as you people are, at least you guys have a brain. Wendy has the power to heal things but it takes a lot of energy to do so."

"Someday," said Luna. "We'll find our dragons. I'm sure of it."

"Hey," Gray said. "I'm surprised that you aren't Natsu's twin or something. After you and Kat destroyed that wall, and the Pegasus boys' reaction, I'm pretty sure that you're related to Natsu."

Luna laughed as Natsu punched Gray.

A twig snapped making Luna and the others stop. Kat growled as she positioned herself in a fighting stance.

"What is it?" Carla asked as Gray shushed her.

In the shadows, two monkey-like people walked up laughing. More laughed in the trees and behind them.

"We've been surrounded!" Carla said as she looked around in shock.

"They're monkeys!" Natsu laughed as he pretended to be a monkey. "Ooh! Ooh!"

"Don't make fun of the Naked Mummy guild!" One yelled.

"Whatever, let's just get this over with," said Luna as she rolled her eyes.

"So, Erigore, huh?" Luna said. They were trekking through the forest again after Natsu had singlehandedly beaten Erigore.

"Yeah, he's from a dark guild that we demolished a few months ago." Gray looked into Luna's eyes. "You know, you remind me of Lucy when you don't go around destroying things."

Kat snorted. "That's almost never. Today is one of the days when she doesn't destroy random things around town. That's why our guild master called her the Devil's Spawn. There were quite a few times when she was almost kicked out of the guild."

"Speaking of your guild," Carla said as she flew. "What's it called again?"

"Dragoon Mark." Luna said as she petted Kat.

"Hmm..." Carla was silent for a few minutes. "I've heard that name somewhere but I can't seem to remember it."

"Did you guys hear that?" Natsu asked as they stood right in front of a cliff. A waterfall stood not so far from it.

Luna strained her ears as she heard a faint sound of screaming.

"Wendy!" Carla yelled while Natsu yelled "Happy!"

Before they could even move a muscle towards the direction of the sound, they were hit with an unseen force. "You guys ain't going there that easily!"

Kat returned to her normal form in a pink POOF and climbed on top of Luna's shoulders.

"Go!" Gray yelled as he made an ice wall, blocking Racer. He then made a ice slide. "I'll take care of him!"

Natsu started to protest at first but Luna pushed Natsu down the slide. He became green as his cheeks puffed up. "Really! You get sick now!" Carla yelled.

Luna and Kat laughed and quickly went down the slide with Luna holding Kat. During the slide, Luna suddenly also became sick as she laid pitifully on the slide. As she reached the end, she pushed Natsu off. "I can't believe that you forgot that you have motion sickness!" Kat yelled as she pushed Luna off.

"Ugh..." Luna groaned. Kat spread her wings and carried Luna to the cave. Natsu already ran off along with Carla.

Inside the cave, Natsu froze as Wendy was unconscious next to Carla with tears in her eyes. In front of them, a man with blue hair, a tattoo on his eye, and in a brown cloak stared. "J-Jellal." Natsu grew angry.

The name hit Luna in the heart.

Before Natsu could even attack, Jellal broke the ceiling, crushing Natsu to the side of the wall. Happy rushed over yelling his name.

"Jellal." Luna stared in disbelief as she struggled to get free of Kat's grip.

"Luna! Stop it, you moron! It's not him!" Kat yelled as she tightened the grip around her waist. Luna stopped a little and looked into Jellal's eyes. It wasn't the one that used to have happiness and having fun. Now it's emotionless.

He walked right pass her. Still, her eyes never made a single tear. Kat let her down next to Natsu. Her face serious. "Carla! Is Wendy okay?"

Carla nodded. "She just used a lot of magic power."

"Good, now to wake up Natsu." A smirk grew on her face as she held out her palm. On it floated the usual orb of celestial and water. She popped it. The cave began to shook as the others screamed in alarm.

The ceiling on top of where Natsu laid broke and a huge column of water poured down on him. "Natsu! We have to bring Wendy back!"

And of course, Natsu broke through the rubble yelling curses and looking his drenched self.

"Hurry up or else Erza is going to kill you for not bringing Wendy!" Happy taunted. Natsu freaked out after that.

"Carla! You go ahead! Natsu and Happu will follow and Kat and I will look for the members of the Oracion Seis."
