Cana's eyes slowly began to open as she began to wake up. Her body felt quite sore, especially in her arms, which were being pulled above her. She heard her name being called to her.

???: Cana. Cana!

Her mind began to catch up as she slowly became fully conscious and recognized the voice that was calling to her. Cana gave a slight gasp when she saw the predicament she was in; her arms were chained and pulled over her head, causing her to hang high in the ceiling of a large dark chamber, with a green fire in the centre.

???: Cana, are you alright?

Cana looked to her left and found Levy bound in the same way.

Cana: Levy! (tried to pull the chains) What's going on? Where are we?

Levy: Some ancient monastery or something dedicated to Sparda. B/N brought you guys in just a few minutes ago, and then left.

Cana: B/N! Where is he? Where's that bastard? (she soon realized something) Wait, what do you mean by 'you guys'?

Levy motioned her head for Cana to turn around. Cana then looked to her right and was utterly surprised at what she saw. Freed, Evergreen, and Bickslow; the Thunder Legion. Each of them was bruised and fully awake, and bound in the same manner as Levy and Cana.

Bickslow: Hey.

Cana: Freed? All of you? He got you guys too?!

Evergreen: We did put up a good fight, but he got lucky. 

Erichuber9: Lucky? That was not luck!

Evergreen: Where did you come from?! You're not supposed to be here! 

Erichuber9: I came here because I smell bullshit! As I said, that was not luck!

Sambamhaw: (grabs Eric) Sorry about the interruption, we'll leave guys be now. (drags him away)

Erichuber9: (struggles) You know it's true!

Sambamhaw: Shut up! We got a story to write!

Cana: (sweatdrop) That was something.

Freed: He was right though. Luck had nothing to do with this. I felt a taste of B/N's power, and I dare say that it rivals that of Laxus, maybe even surpasses his.

As one could imagine, that statement surprised the others quite a bit. Especially Evergreen and Bickslow.

Bickslow: Are you serious?! This guy might be stronger than Laxus?!

Freed: Most likely. If I were to guess, I would say that the only being in our guild that can have any hope of defeating B/N would be Y/N. Perhaps Natsu or Erza may put up a good fight, but...

Levy: Only, someone with the blood of Sparda can beat another, right?

Freed: Yes...

Cana: Let's hope Y/N can pull it off.

Meanwhile

It was late afternoon as the rest of the guild continued to search for their missing comrades. Alzack and Bisca were both found brutally beaten and brought to the infirmary. No one had seen Cana or the Thunder Legion either, so many assumed they too had been abducted, which shocked most of them quite a bit.

Many members of the guild were now becoming irritated. A few hoped they'd find the one responsible for all this and beat him down.

In a rocky landscape, just on the outskirts of Magnolia were two of the wizards currently searching. Mirajane and her younger brother, Elfman.

Elfman: Mira, I want you to stay close. Don't leave my sight, okay?

Mirajane: Elfman, I can handle myself. I want to find our friends too.

Elfman: I know, but....

He knew his older sister was one of the strongest in the Fairy Tail guild, an S-class wizard, but he can't stand the idea of her getting hurt. A tender hand was placed on his shoulder, and he looked down to his smiling sister.

Mirajane: Don't worry little brother. We'll find them, and I'll be just fine.

Elfman gave a light smile, his sister's smile was one of the few things to comfort him and bring out his soft side.

???: You shouldn't make assurances that you are unable to keep.

Both Mirajane and Elfman turned to the sound of the voice, walking towards them was none other than the infamous older brother to Y/N, B/N with Malos flanking him.

Malos: Yeah, promises are nothing to power.

Elfman: Who the hell are you two?

Mirajane: You're B/N, aren't you?

B/N: That is correct. (gestures to Malos) And this Malos. 

Mirajane: Were you the ones who took Levy, Cana, and the others?

Malos: And if we say yes? What then?

Elfman: (gave a defiant glare) We'll take them off your hands, you freak!

Before he could charge, Mirajane placed an arm in-front of him. She has a slight glare at B/N.

Mirajane: Tell me, why are you doing this? All of it? Why attack your brother? Why take our friends? Why?

B/N: I understand your questioning in me abducting your guild-mates, but why this concern with your brother and me?

Mirajane: You two may be brothers, but he's also a member of our Fairy Tail family! He's a part of the same guild!

B/N: Yes, I am aware he's your newest member, though I can't understand why he associates himself with Fairy Tail.

Elfman: (growls) 

Mirajane: The two of you are family. And not all your sisters are hurting, and you're off trying to kill Y/N, when you should be helping them.

B/N: You're right, Ruby and Yang were hurting from what happened at Beacon. Initially, I was saddened, that is until I realized the truth.

Elfman: The truth?

B/N: The truth about life. Seeing what happened made me realize the only thing absolute in this world, past or present; power. In the end, power is the only thing that matters. If you are strong then you live, if you are weak you die. This extends to both humans and demons. So you have your answer, I don't care for my brother nor my sisters, and I take no joy in fighting him. I severed my human emotions and attachments, and devoted my life to obtaining power. That is the only real purpose in life.

Mirajane honestly couldn't believe what she just heard from him.

Mirajane: (thoughts) How can anyone just throw away all their emotions and what they hold dear? How can this man truly be Y/N's brother?

Elfman however, was quite angry as he glared at B/N.

Elfman: (angry) YOU!

B/N: (raised his eyebrow) Yes?

Elfman: Listen up you ungrateful bastard! A real man never throws away all that. A real man wouldn't talk about family, like it's nothing!

B/N: A real man you say? Honestly I don't quite understand that. If someone is physically male, how can they not be a real man, as you say?

Malos: I say he is absolutely stupid. Just look at him, those gears in his mind are full of rust.

Elfman: That's it! You're going down! (charge forward)

Mirajane: Elfman no!

Mirajane tried to stop but he was already closing in on B/N and Malos.

Elfman: Beast Arm: Black Bull!

Malos: (sarcastically) Oh, I'm so scared! (scoffs) I'll deal with this fool.

Elfman's right arm transformed into a large black arm and he lunged straight for Malos, but Malos summoned his sword and with it, blocked the attack.

B/N: (sigh) Why can't they ever come quietly? There's no point in fighting when they are obviously going to lose. 

Malos: Well, I don't care either way, I need the exercise after being locked up. (look at Elfman) So, come on! Show me what being a real man is all about!

Elfman yelled as he thrust a fist at Malos, but he leaped back and landed on a rock, he then activated his sword and leapt towards Elfman, and slashed him across the chest, then jumped and slammed his sword into Elfman and sent him flying into a boulder.

Mirajane: Elfman!

Elfman glared at Malos again as he jumped and tried to bring his blade down again.

Elfman: Beast Arm: Iron Bull! 

Elfman's right arm changed again and this time, into one coated in metal, and he actually caught Malos sword before it hit him, causing Malos to look annoyed. Elfman tried to punch Malos with his untransformed arm, but Malos quickly jumped back out of his grip.

Malos: Well.... I guess I have to give a small applause, normally an Aegis Sword would've cut your hand off. (looks at his hand) Or it could be I'm still waking up.

Elfman: What?

Malos: Either way, (point his sword at him) you're just part of my warm up. (small laugh) I got things to do that are more important than you.

Elfman: Shut up! Hiding behind that fancy sword of yours! If you're a real man, you'd fight me fist-to-fist! 

Malos: (groan) Have you guys gotten more annoying? (scratches the back of his head) I swear..... Alright! (slam his sword into the ground) I play your game. (crack his knuckles) Shall we?

Elfman: You got it! Take Over: Beast Soul!

Elfman had now transformed into his beast form and loomed over Malos. 

Malos: (looks over the form) Smaller than I thought it would be.

The beast that is Elfman quickly moved towards Malos and came zooming in with a large punch; but Malos was able to catch the punch and use the momentum to toss Elfman's body over his own and send him flying; with just one hand. Mirajane looked in surprise at Malos's strength.

Mirajane: (thoughts) He tossed Elfman with just one hand?!

Elfman landed painfully on the ground. He soon got up though and glared at Malos.

Elfman: Is that all you got?

Malos: Funny, I was gonna ask you that.

Malos then dashed at him, and punched him in the gut, before upcutting him in his chin, then he leapt upwards and grabbed him by the horn and lifted him up and then slammed him into the ground.

When he impacted, it caused a shockwave of dust, causing Mirajane to cover her face while B/N didn't look phased by it.

Malos looked at the crater with a smirk, before walking away. Suddenly, Elfman roared as he emerged for the crater and tried to bash him with his large head.

But Malos stopped him with his palm, and then punched him in his face, then kicked him in the middle of his forehead, causing him to roll across the ground.

When Elfman tried to get up, Malos zoomed in with a punch to the gut, sending him flying through several rocks and right into the base of a small mountain. When Elfman tried to move, Malos grabbed his chin and threw him into the ground, then Malos lifted him upwards and began to spin him. After several turns he threw him into the air.

Malos jumps into the air above Elfman before he delivers a haymaker on his back with two hands joined together. This caused Elfman to crash down onto the rocky ground. It ended when Malos reared both his fists back and gave a powerful punch to Elfman. The shockwave was enough to cause a small rockslide, tumbling onto the take-over user.

Mirajane: ELFMAN!!!

The boulders buried him. Once the rockslide stopped, Malos slightly kicked a small rock off the pile, revealing Elfman's face, no longer in beast form, just a man. He grimaced as he glared at Malos.

Malos: Humans. You guys are harder to kill than cockroaches. (thinks for a moment) I have no idea why she would defend you.

Elfman: W-What are you talking about?

Malos: Oh, nothing your feeble mind would understand. (walks over to his sword) But I'm glad you came up with this little contest of strength. I feel a bit more awake. (grabs the handle of his sword) So for that...... (pull out his sword) I gave you a swift end.

Mirajane: B/N!

Everyone turned around to see Mirajane looking at B/N and Malos with a harsh glare.

Elfman: Mira... get back.

B/N: So, you wish to fight now then?

Mirajane: I don't like to fight. But that doesn't mean I wont. If you want a taste of power, I'll show you power. And I won't let you hurt my brother!

A dark magic circle appeared under her.

Mirajane: Take Over: Satan Soul!

There was a bright purple flash, causing the trapped Elfman to cover his eyes, B/N and Malos just looked onward unaffected. When the flash subsided, a much different Mirajane stood before him. She assumed her She-Devil form.

Malos: Well, this looks interesting. (look at B/N) You wanna handle this?

B/N: Very well. I look forward to fighting the She-Devil myself. 

Malos: (walks off) Have fun!

B/N: Beowulf! (summons his dark gauntlets and grieves)

With that, Mirajane yelled as she zoomed straight for B/N, he was able to block one punch with his right Beowulf gauntlet, but she gave a fierce kick to the head, knocking him back quite the distance. He stopped his momentum by driving the greaves of Beowulf into the ground.

Mirajane: Demon Blast!

She shot a dark purple beam towards B/N. B/N put away Beowulf and unsheathed Yamato. He was able to use his blade to cut the large beam in half; both halves zoomed past him and exploded behind him.

Mirajane charged in towards B/N again and laid a series of fast punches, but B/N blocked them all using his blade. Mirajane's fists were protected from the sword by a dark aura around them. It seemed like a large blur was between them, none of them made a successful hit on the other. B/N jumped back quite the distance.

B/N: Summoned Swords!

B/N casted a series of blue energy blades that all barreled straight for Mirajane. 

Mirajane: Evil Explosion!

Mirajane brought both her hands together and created a dark purple explosion in front of her, which blew away all the energy swords.When the dust cleared, Mirajane was surprised to hear the sound of slow clapping. She looked as the dust settled to see B/N standing and slowly clapping his hands together.

B/N: Impressive. Most impressive. Your use of magic is strong, it is clear that you have indeed earned your ranking as an S-Class wizard. However, I find the title of 'She-Devil' to be unsuited for you.

Mirajane: What?

B/N: You claim to have Devil Powers. While it is indeed true that your transformation is called 'Satan-Soul', it is clear that you have, and will always lack, the power of a True Devil.

Mirajane glared at B/N, but Elfman just looked confused as he was still pinned while Malos looked bored.

Elfman: (thoughts) What did he mean by True Devil?

Malos: Hey! Hurry up and show her! I wanna see the look on her face.

Mirajane: I suppose you know what that power is?

B/N Indeed I do. Perhaps you would like a demonstration.

A dark blue aura formed around B/N as he closed his eyes and wind began to circle around him, the air was stinging as it turned to dark blue as well.

B/N: Let me show you the power of a true devil!

B/N opened his eyes to reveal they were black with blue irises. There was a large dark blue explosion, forcing Mirajane to cover her face, and the still-pinned Elfman to close his eyes. The dust finally settled, and the sight that stood before the two take-over siblings made both of their eyes become so wide, they were almost circular.

The being that stood before them was all blue, with a few black stripes near the bottom. He had blue-clawed feet, and black claws. On his right arm, the sheathed blade of Yamato appeared to be a part of the arm itself. There were silver horns on his head and dark blue eyes.

B/N: This is the power of a True Devil, the power of my grandfather and father's blood in my veins. This is my Devil Trigger. 

B/N's voice was now much deeper, and sounded much more demonic, the sound of that voice was enough to send a chill down Mirajane's spine.

(music at 2:00) 

In less than a second, the Devil-Trigger B/N was right in front of her, and gave her a punch to the face. It was enough that created a shockwave around the surrounding area, and sent Mirajane flying through seven large boulders. She tried to get up, but B/N appeared in front of her again and gave a cartwheel kick that sent her flying high into the air.

She was able to stabilize herself with her wings, but B/N now appeared in front of her. He was now sporting four black demonic wings on his back; two pointing left, two pointing right.

B/N: You seem much slower now.

B/N held the unsheathed Yamato in a flash and zoomed past Mirajane in the blink of an eye, slashing at her side, causing her to yell in pain and hold the wound.

B/N: Oh right of course. It's only because I'm faster when I'm like this. And I'm also much stronger.

Mirajane gave her a good kick to the abs causing her to fly back far away in the air. The ensuing aerial brawl continued as Mirajane stabilized herself.

Mirajane: Demon Blast!

Mirajane blasted the same attack again. Only this time, B/N flew straight for it, sword pointed outward. The sword impacted the beam and scattered it as he flew through it like nothing. He flew straight past Mirajane, causing her to yell as the blade pierced through her.

She held her side as she looked behind and saw B/N give her a kick to the head, sending her plummeting to the ground.

Mirajane tried to get back up as she landed, but B/N grabbed her by the hair and tossed her back into the air, before B/N took flight again after her. Elfman could only look in surprise and shock.

Elfman: (thoughts, shocked) How...? He's... She can't keep up with him. How strong is this guy?!

Malos: (to Elfman) Your sister's finished now! Devil Triggers are on a whole another level than that form of hers.

Back in the air, Mirajane tried to throw a dozen of several small dark purple energy balls towards B/N, but he swung Yamato and created a dark blue energy wave that encompassed all the balls and hit Mirajane, causing an explosion. Mirajane was only barely able to keep herself hovering.

Mirajane: (thoughts) His... power.... It's like his power has doubled... maybe even tripled.

B/N: You are still standing. Normally that would have killed someone, but I expect no less from the strongest of the Strauss siblings.

Mirajane glared at him even further.

B/N: However, that being said, I can only guess why there's only two left, considering the power you wield. 

Mirajane: What are you-

B/N: What was her name again? Ah yes, Lisanna.

Both Mirajane's and Elfman's eyes went wide as soon as they heard B/N say that name.

B/N: Your younger sister. Though it makes sense what happened to her. From what I know, she was the weakest of the Take-Over users of your guild. And as my pathetic aunt once said before; if you're weak, you die. While pathetic she is, her words have meaning.

Mirajane: Shut up! You don't know anything about her!

B/N: We also know that Elfman down there blames himself for her fate.

Mirajane: It wasn't his fault!

B/N: I agree.

Hearing that, Mirajane gained a look of surprise.

B/N: What happened to Lisanna was clearly not his fault. It was yours.

Elfman's eyes went wide at that statement while Malos chuckled a bit.

B/N: You had the power to protect her. You could have done a number of things. You could have stopped Elfman yourself. Or at the very least, you could have knocked her out and carried her to safety. But no, you just stood by and watched.

As he said this, Mirajane's breath had grown louder, almost like a growl.

B/N: I am also curious as to how Natsu Dragneel handled the news. Oh wait, that right there is another reason it was your fault. Didn't he want to come with you? But you told him no, you shot him down. He definitely had the power that could have saved her, but you didn't allow him to come with you. From what I gather, they had quite a history. They were once very close friends, perhaps maybe something more than that.

Mirajane clenched both her hands into tight fists as B/N continued.

B/N: So, when did he hear? How did he handle it? Was he distressed, was he angered? He wasn't even there to witness her final breaths, it must have been quite infuriating. He lost someone he truly and deeply cared for, one could only imagine the pain he felt. How were you able to tell him what happened? Did you cry when you told him? Or did you allow your brother to explain it and have him take the fall, rather than face it yourself. As I said, might control everything. You may have strong magic powers, but deep down, you are weak. And Lisanna paid the price for your weakness.

Mirajane: SHUT UP!!!

She tried to lay a flurry of punches onto B/Nl, who was able to avoid all of them with ease.

Mirajane: YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING!!! YOU HEAR ME?!?! YOU DON'T!!!

Mirajane pulled back a bit before bringing her hands together.

Mirajane: Soul Extinction!

She unleashed one of her most powerful attacks; blasting a massive dark purple beam straight for B/N, which then erupted into a large dark explosion that could be seen from miles around.

Mirajane gave deep breaths as she was exhausted and barely able to hover in the air. She looked as the dust settled and there was no one present. But as she did, she heard Malos laughing.

Mirajane: What's so funny?

Malos: (laughing) You really think that worked?

Mirajane: What?

???: Was it something I said?

Mirajane's eyes went wide as soon as she heard that. She quickly turned around and saw the Devil-Trigger B/N behind her, with his sword raised high, a massive dark blue beam shot out from the sword, taking the formation of an even larger sword.

B/N brought the blade down on Mirajane, who screamed as it hit. There was an even larger, bright explosion. The still-pinned Elfman was forced to close his eyes. When the flash subsided he looked in horror at the sight of Mirajane, who was now in her normal form, and unconsciously fell down the sky and straight to the ground.

Elfman: MIRA!!!

However, before she hit the ground, the Devil-Trigger B/N was able to catch her bridal style. He landed softly on the ground. Blue steam came off B/N's body as he slowly changed back into his human appearance. Mirajane was bruised, her dress was tattered, but she was still breathing.

Elfman: You bastard! Get your hands off of her!

B/Nl began to walk towards him as he carried her.

B/N: Don't worry, she's still alive. She would be no use to me dead.

Malos: Yeah. So what next?

B/N: Just one more Fairy to hunt down. It will be enough to lure out my brother from this weak guild.

Malos: (chuckles) I take it, one of the targets I gave you?

B/N: Yes.

Malos: Good..... I handle it.

B/N: Very well, I'll leave the Sky Dragon to you, Malos. 

Elfman: You... (gained their attention) You don't know anything about her! Or me! And you definitely don't know squat about Lisanna!

B/N: I said what I know, it's that simple. But why do you take the blame for it, when it was clearly not your fault, but hers?

Elfman: Why do you care?

B/N: I don't. I'm merely curious, that's all.

Malos: Your head game won't work on humans, I told you they are too dumb.

B/N: I'm aware of that.

Elfman glared as B/N was now standing over him.

B.N: Earlier, you implied that I am not a man. I agree with you. (raised his right boot) I am far superior to any man.

He brought the boot down on Elfman's face.

Chapter 13 ended.

Boy that ending gave me chills. Now Malos is coming after Wendy next. And with this chapter, we're getting closer to Pyra debut.

Peace out and enjoy.
