GUILD HALL

Everything was settling down at the guild. Levy had woken up and Wendy and Porlyusica were helping Lucy in the infirmary. Master had returned and was told what happened. He now sat in silence, looking over the mages he thought of as children. Everyone was starting to quiet down, sitting at the tables in the guild.

"I hope Lucy is ok..." Mira trailed off, tears in her eyes.

"Lu-chan..." Levy sighed, staring up the stairs to the infirmary.

Footsteps were heard throughout the silence of the guild as Wendy started to walk down. She was staring at the ground, looking lost in thought. She took each step slowly, almost hesitant to come down. "Is something wrong, Wendy?" Mira asked in a worried tone. Wendy gulped, wondering how to break this. How to prevent him from seeing her.

Once he gets to the guild, he will run off to Lucy. That will be the first thing he tries. No one will be able to stop him, except maybe Erza or Mira. It's very hard to keep a dragon from it's own mate. He is, of course, Natsu Dragneel. The Fire Dragon Slayer. Short tempered. Energetic. Never giving up. Especially for Lucy. He would do anything for Lucy. He would even give his life for her.

Wendy bit her lip, thinking it through. Maybe it would be better for the master to tell everyone. She walked over to him and bent down. She cupped her hands around her mouth and whispered "We have to keep Natsu away from Lucy. Can you tell everyone?"

Master turned to look at her with wide eyes. He could not believe what Wendy had just told him. Nonetheless, he nodded, agreeing to tell everyone. He stands up and goes to the second level of the guild, gaining everyone's attention. He stares in silence for a bit, gazing into a few eyes.

"We have to keep Natsu away from Lucy." He states simply after thinking about it for a bit.

Everyone stared in silence. "And how are we supposed to do that?" Levy asked curiously. Everyone started talking at once, shouting out ideas but none was heard throughout the noise.

"SILENCE!" Master shouted, quieting the guild.

"Mira, you guard Lucy's room until Erza gets here." Master commanded. Mira nodded and hurried to the infirmary, taking her place in front of the door. "Everyone else is going to have to distract him when he comes in so we can explain it to Gray, Gajeel, and Erza."

Right as the master finished that statement, the guild doors were kicked open. A voice rang out through the guild. It was someone who they had hoped would take longer to come back.

"WE'RE BACK!" Natsu Dragneel shouted.

Master winced, wishing that the return of Natsu could have waited for a little longer. He walked over to Freed, never taking his eyes off of Natsu. "Freed!" He hissed at the rune mage. Freed glanced at the Master in the corner of his eye so he didn't draw attention to himself. "Hurry up and go create a run barrier not letting Natsu into Lucy's room! NOW!" Master said urgently, glancing between Freed and Natsu. Freed nodded, and rushed off up that stairs to the infirmary. Natsu had started to make his way toward the infirmary, set on seeing Lucy. While Master had told Freed what to do, someone else had gone to explain things to Gray, Erza, and Gajeel alone with the exceeds.

Levy saw the Master still getting things ready, so she went to explain to the others. She had to wait until Natsu was far enough away. Fortunately, or unfortunately, Natsu had already started making his way to Lucy. This was not going to go well. "Erza! Gajeel! Lily! Gray!" She called, motioning for them to come to her. They all glanced toward the infirmary, wanting to go see Lucy, but went against their wishes and walked over to Levy.

"What, Shrimp?" Gajeel asked gruffly with his arms over his chest. Levy bit her lip, wondering how to tell them. Finally, she gave up and decided to tell them straight out.

"We have to keep Natsu away from Lucy."

They all stared at her deadpanned. Then, Gray started laughing. Not chuckling, it was the awkward laugh everyone got once they realized a joke was told. A joke that was unbelievable. "Good one, Levy." Gray said. The others had feebly smiled when Gray started to laugh.

"It... It wasn't a joke." Levy said in all seriousness. They all stopped laughing or smiling and just stared at her.

"Are you serious, Levy?" Gajeel asked, being serious as well. He wasn't sure, but he had to be serious just in case. Levy nodded.

"Keep Natsu away from Lucy." Erza muttered. "You realize what that's asking, right?" Levy nodded.

"Oh man! And we just finished our fight with the Salamander before we came." Gajeel groaned out. Levy gasped. "Is that why you all have wounds?" She asked, checking them over. Erza had a small bandage above her left eye and she walked with a limp, het left foot must have hurt. Gray had medical tape around his head, blood almost bleeding through. It would need to be changed soon. Gajeel had his shoulder wrapped and winced when it was shifted. He also had a black eye and burns were all over his body.

"Geez, Gajeel. Seems like you got hurt the most." Levy observed. After that sentence, a loud bang was heard and Natsu warm laughter rang throughout the guild.

"You wanna fight, Elfman?" Natsu teased, getting into a fighting stance. Elfman smirked, glad to have distracted him. "Yeah, I do! And I'm gonna be-!" Elfan got cut off by Natsu. "Oh wait! Rose! Get in here!" He called out. Everyone's attention turned towards the doors when a girl walked in. She looked to be Natsu's or Lucy's age. Her hair was in two pig tails, just like Lucy would wear sometimes, except her hair is longer and is black instead of blonde. She wore the same kind of outfit Lucy would wear, too. A crop top with a short skirt. Her eyes were a bright blue and she had a nervous smile on her face.

"Hi. I'm Rose." She said, raising a hand to wave. Everyone stared in silence before breaking out in cheers.

"Alright, a new member!"

"I wannna be her friend!"

"Let's go introduce ourselves!"

All kinds of statements were being thrown out into the guild. Rose started to relax as everyone started to accept her. "See? I told you that they would accept you!" Natsu cried, pointing at Rose. She had been nervous the whole walk there, spitting out excuses as to why she shouldn't join. Them not accepting her was one. Rose smiled at him. "Yes, you did."

"So, what magic do you use, Rose?" A member with brown hair and only wore a bra and pants asked, swinging her arm around Rose's shoulder.

The once quiet guild had become it's usual noisy madhouse once again. Although, no one forgot about Lucy. They were trying to distract Natsu long enough for Freed to put up the runes to keep him out.

OUTSIDE THE INFIRMARY

"That shout do it." Freed sighed, bringing his arms down after finishing the runes. He had just completed the one that would keep him out of the infirmary, away from Lucy.

"I don't like this." Mira sighed, pouting a little. She had been against keeping Natsu away the whole time, but didn't want to go against the Master openly.

"I know, but it's needed. Lucy needs to heal or he would freak out even worse." Freed said, glancing at her from between his green locks that were in front of his eyes. Mira was hugging herself, feeling bad for doing this. She glanced up at him, wonder in her eyes. "I wonder..." Mira trailed off, not knowing which would have the worse reaction.

Keeping a dragon away from his mate or a dragon's mate dying.

They both seemed pretty bad to the take over mage.

SECRET LOCATION

"Master, what would you have us do?" A man asked, bowing to the mage who sat in the chair in front of him. There was one person on each side of the bowing mage. They were in a dark room, shadows covering the Masters face. The one who inquired what to do seemed to be the leader of the three mages in front of the Master.

"There is a mage I need for my plan. She's in Fairy Tail." The Master started, voice husky and gruff.

"Who?" The mage on the left asked.

"Let me finished!" The Master shouted. The mage who questioned him nodded quickly, fearing for his life.

"She's important to all of them, especially the Dragon Slayer, Natsu Dragneel. She had blonde hair, brown eyes, and has a pink Fairy Tail mark on the back of her right hand. I need you to retrieve her for me." The Master explained. The mage on the right looked up.

"Forgive me for asking, but what is the mage's name?" The mage asked, looking up with curiosity shining in their eyes.

"Lucy Heartfilia."

GUILD HALL

Rose pretty much settled in right away. When she revealed her magic as being Earth Dragon Slayer Magic, the whole guild shouted with shock.

"Another one?!" Everyone shouted. Rose looked at them confused.

"You see, Natsu is the Fire Dragon Slayer. Wendy is the Wind Dragon Slayer. Gajeel is the Iron Dragon Slayer. Laxus is the Lightning Dragon Slayer. With you, that makes five Dragon Slayers in our guild." Makao explained. Rose's eyes widened. "Woah. And here I thought it was rare magic." Rose said, a little jokingly, a little serious. Makao laughed, slapping her on the back. "You'll fit right in." He said and walked away to have a beer.

"Wanna a beer?" A mage whose name she learned was Cana asked. Rose shook her head. "I'm not old enough. I'm only 16." She said. "That doesn't matter!" Cana yelled happily, swinging a mug of beer around. "I'm good." Rose insisted. "Suit yourself." Cana shrugged, chugging the beer down in one gulp. Rose walked away after that, searching for some peace and quiet.

She made her way to the stairs, seeing that no one was really going up there. She was going to explore the guild. She quietly went up the steps, as to not draw attention to herself. When she made it up, she saw a women with white hair and a man with green hair. They were staring at one of the doors. "Hi. I'm Rose." Rose said, reaching a hand out to shake theirs. "I'm Mira. This is Freed." Mira said, shaking her hand. Freed shook her hand too.

"What's in there?" Rose asked, pointing to the door they had been staring at. They both winced, staring sadly at her. "One of our guild mates, Lucy." Mira said. "Oh! I know her!" Rose said, smiling. "How is she, anyway? I heard she was hurt." Rose asked, getting serious with the questions. "She will be fine as long as she's not disturbed." Freed answered. "Can I see her?" Rose asked.

"Well, Master did say only Natsu can't see her, so sure." Mira said. Rose's eyes widened. "You plan on keeping Natsu away from Lucy, his mate?" Rose asked in shock. It didn't seem possible to her. Mira winced. "I know. Seems impossible." Mira said.

Rose looked toward the door and reached out, turning the door knob.

Meanwhile, Natsu was downstairs, still trying to get to the infirmary. He started off toward it, but got distracted soon after.

"Hey! Flame-brain! Come and fight me! I want revenge for before!" Gray shouted.

"After I see Lucy!" Natsu replied. Everyone raised an eyebrow at that.

"Natsu! Wanna fight me?" Erza asked, trying to distract him.

"Let me check in on Luce first!" Natsu once again said, not wanting to leave Lucy alone.

"Salamander! Lucy isn't in the infirmary!" Gajeel shouted, drawing at excuses to keep him away.

"I can smell her, you know!" Natsu snapped, glaring at Gajeel. He didn't like him lying about Lucy's whereabouts. Gajeel gulped and bit his lip, not sure how to keep him away. Master got fed up with the excuses and lies quickly and decided to get to it and tell Natsu.

"Natsu! I can't let you see Lucy." Master told him, silencing the guild. They didn't know what was going to happen.

Natsu's warm smile fell off his face, showing a frown.

"Uh-oh." Levy whispered, watching Natsu's reaction.

Natsu's eyes turned to slits and his fists clenched in anger.

"Here we go." Gray groaned, getting ready to fight Natsu once again.

Fire crept out of Natsu's fists because of his anger.

"WHAT?" Natsu exploded.
