AN: Hello everyone! Welcome to the Fifth Chapter of Grim Slayers of Fairy Tail. Please welcome Unthor! *Said Dwarf glares at me* Or not! Anyways, this chapter will give a brief insight on to the Slayer Lord's (Daemon Slayer) mindset and some politics between and of Ishgar, Fiore, Onadland, and The Dwarfs. Let's start with a brief history lesson, shall we?

Two years ago on a mountain with a mansion on the cliff side, several people arrive in the court yard below a open window, which a younger Lucy watches out of. "Ye okay Little Gold Heart? Ye look sad." a grisly looking dwarf asks with several axes on his belt and strapped to his back, with a rune etched book chained to his belt, his pants ripped from multiple fights and a single torn boot on his right foot. He wore no shirt or tunic, though his beard covered most of his body, with elaborate tattoos crossing his skin, which poked out now and then through the beard. His bright orange mohawk was taller then most people Lucy knew, including her father and then he began to scratch his iron eye patch on his left eye, as if his eye was still there.

Lucy went over to the Dwarf, smiling nervously as she takes his hand from his eyepatch and places it against her cheek, saying "I'm okay Unthor. However I feel apprehensive of leaving for Fairy Tail when I turn seventeen. I know my father would never approve and I appreciate your people for sheltering and teaching me." before smiling sadly as she continues "However I wish I could bring Larz, Grimek, Liz, or even you to Fairy Tail. Does that even make any sense?" to which Unthor stares coldly at her as he contemplates something, before asking her to follow him to the council room, though Lucy knows it to be more of a order, since Unthor never does well with pleasantries and manners of Umgi.

As they arrive, they see the Eight Wizard Lords present, bickering among themselves like children, despite being all being supposed adults. "Will ya eight EVER stop fighting?!" Unthor shouts angrily as he slams closed fist on the table they are gathered around, causing all of them to fall silent. "Now I know me elder brother called ya eight here fer me, and I thank him fer tha. There is the favor I need ta ask of ye all. Will ya all send a representative from each of yer orders to Fairy Tail with Little Gold Heart here? I plan to bring the Ninth and her closest family members to it as well. I will be taking full responsibility of everyone's safety, but I at least expect them to be able to defend themselves as well." Unthor states evenly before his tone changes to a softer one "Ya do na ave ta, but if any of ya really cared for yer friend Layla, who was me friend as well, ye would endeavor ta send someone ta keep Lucy company in a new place. Fer this is thee Oath I make: I shall not let Little Gold Heart fall into darkness, no matter what, until she obtains her own happiness"

Lucy was a bit shocked, since Unthor was always seen by her as either unreasonable psychopath or a very harsh but caring uncle but this was the first time she had ever seen Unthor actually speaking up for her, as he was always ruthless in his combat drills and scolding her constantly on her fighting style, having never seen him speak up for her happiness at all. The Eight Wizard Lords gathered begin muttering among themselves before all eight stand and affirm that a member will join Lucy in Fairy Tail, till she is either happy or they themselves pass before that happens, causing Lucy to begin crying with happiness when she knew now that she would never be alone, even when gone from her true home. "Course I plan on neutering anyone who dares to harm her well being as well, so it will be even more fun for me!" Unthor then added while laughing loudly, causing everyone to either sweat nervously at that or fault over in shock and (In Lucy's case), cry as well at the destruction that is Unthor unleashed upon opponents of her, reminding her of the old dawi she knows, loves, and fears.


In the present, in Fairy Tail's Guild Hall, everyone is having a great time, though Grimek seems to brooding about something at which Liz, Aqshy, and Chamon are sitting with as well with Natsu and Happy as Lucy looks for a job. As Lucy reads the various requests, it surprises her at how varied the jobs are, though Mira explains that whatever she decides on taking, she should bring it to her, since the guildmaster, Makarov, is at a conference. "What kind of conference?" Lucy asks curiously, to which Mira explains "It's a meeting between the various guildmasters. Every once in a while, they get together to talk about the state of things. It's like the magic council but not. Reedus, a light pen please?" to which a rotund man replies "Wei."

Mira then begins to draw a diagram with the Magic Council, with the governments at the top while the magic council is just below them, though to it's side and connected to the government, is Onadheim's Wizard College, which was part of a agreement between Ishgar, Onadland, and The Dwarfs. Below the Magic Council in Era, are the various Local Guild Master Leagues, with multiple Guilds below them. "Era is the Magic Council's headquarters in Fiore, and they are the ones who uphold magic law in Ishgar. The Leagues pass on the decrees of the council and from the top guild masters are elected for who the ten council members are to be. The Guildmasters also ensure to meet every now and then to maintain relations." Mira explains, which reminds Lucy of the Dwarf Clan Lords, Guild Masters, and Senior Members meetings, having seen them always meeting in the royal court of her foster father, with one incident ending badly in a brawl.

"I guess I see why the master is sometimes stressed about all the things Fairy Tail does." Lucy sighs as Mira then adds "Yep and not only that, if the guild masters didn't relay information to each other, the system would break apart." before Natsu adding in a scary tone with a lit finger "Then the men in black will show up!" but gets pelted in the back of the head with a beanie baggie from Grimek's rifle, with him shouting "Stop trying ta be scary, Natsu! Ye ain't!" as he then grumbles about Grimek being a killjoy though Mira adds in concern "But seriously though, the guys Natsu was referring to are real. They are called the Dark Guilds, which are involved in magical crime and oppose the council and legal guilds. Onadland's wizards are unique in that they can be allowed to work without being a member of a guild, though must show a seal that represents that wizard is who they are."

"Would you just go pick us a job Lucy?" Natsu asks rather rudely, which Grimek pelts him with another baggie, with him shouting "Manners lad!" to which Natsu waves fist as if to challenge him, as Lucy then asks "Why would I do that?" to which Natsu calms down and asks in response "Well we are a team aren't we?" as Happy adds in declaration "Aye! Now it's your turn to pick, so hop to it!" but is hit in the back of the head with a baggie as well, to which Natsu asks him loudly in annoyance "How many beanie baggies do you have?!" to which Grimek said "Nough ta handle things more aggravating then you and Happy. I even have cannon sized ones." to which Natsu is about to question but stops, knowing it would probably just go over his head.

"Um no. As far as I'm concerned our team has disbanded." Lucy explains in a matter of fact tone, though gets a beanie baggie to the back of the head as well and turns to Grimek in a look of somewhat between betrayal and confusion, to which he replies "Never say a team is disbanded unless all members agree. Remember that me, Liz, Aqshy, Chamon, and Ghur are on his team as well with you. I also am actually fond of tha two." to which Lucy sighs in defeat. "I wouldn't hang around him for too long Lucy. You will get extra offers from other teams as well." Gray says to them, though Cana then asks "Gray where are your clothes?" to which Gray begins to panic as Natsu calls him a jerk.

That sets them off into a little banter as Grimek, Aqshy, and Chamon all drink their ale mugs while watching, with Liz drinking a mug of milk. "They're at it again." Happy states as Loke then approaches Lucy, asking "Why don't you be on the Team of Love, just the two of us?" which confuses Lucy. "You're just so stunningly beautiful that I have to keep these shades on, or I'll be dazzled by your beauty." Loke says flirting with Lucy as she replies sarcastically "Yeah comparing me to a sun is a good thing for you Icarus." though Loke notices her Celestial keys and freaks out before shouting as he runs away "I'm sorry my dear but you and me can't be together." as Lucy asks "What's with him?" to which Mira answers "Loke has had a bad run with Celestial Wizards. Rumor has Loke dated a Celestial Wizard a while back and it didn't end well for him."

"Not surprising" Lucy began before she noticed Natsu too late as he fell on her, to which Mira said simply "That looked painful." at which Grimek asks them "Can't ya two knick it off?" though Lucy corrects him "Knock Grimek, not knick!" though Natsu and Gray do not seem to listen and go back to bantering again, which Aqshy says in annoyance "Lame insults guys." to which everyone just finds their fight to be funny, and makes Lucy begin to start laughing as Loke bursts back in, shouting "Bad news! Erza's back!" which causes everyone but Lucy, Grimek, Chamon, Liz, Aqshy, and Mira to panic, confusing them quite a bit, except again for Mira who just stands there smiling.

The sound of clinking metal could be heard as everyone went silent and saw the silhouette of the woman come through the door, carrying a large object as well. As she places it on the floor, Lucy notices how the woman wears a light suit of metal armor with a blue skirt below it, with shoulder guards, gauntlets, and armored boots. She had long scarlet red hair and brown eyes. In fact, in Lucy's opinion she looked rather pretty. "I have returned. Where is Master Makarov?" Erza asked, to which Mira answered "Welcome back Erza. The Master is away at a conference right now." causing Erza to nod in understanding, as then Grimek asks, rather bored "What's tha souvenir?" which frightens most of Fairy Tail at the Dwarf's laid back attitude.

"It's the horn of a local monster I defeated. The villagers were so thankful that they decorated it. Do you have a problem with it?" Erza asks rather intimidatingly, to which Grimek replies "Na, just wonderin what it was." surprising Fairy Tail when she did nothing but nod in understanding. "Now listen up! While I was on the road, I have been hearing that Fairy Tail has been causing nothing but trouble and while the master may tolerate it, I most certainly will not." Erza states authoritatively before continuing "Cana you need to start controlling your drinking; Najiteer take the dancing outside; Wakaba get rid of that filthy habit; Nab, just pick a job; Macao" but pauses which freaks Macao out, before sighing and saying "I don't even know where to begin."

"I like her. She's a woman who knows how to take charge." Chamon muses, causing Lucy and her friends to state blankly "No surprise there.". Erza then asks "And where is Natsu and Gray?" to which Happy points to them as they hug, Gray replying "Hey Erza. We are doing great, hanging out like two good friends as always." at which Natsu replies "Aye!" which freaks Lucy out a bit, though Liz then asks "Really? Because I am pretty sure you two were about to start-ma mapher mphel." but is unable to speak clearly due to Aqshy covering her mouth, as she bet Erza was not that clueless. Boy was she wrong.

"I am glad to hear it, though it is only natural that even the best of friends would fight." Erza explains with a smirk, though Gray says "I don't know if we're the best of friends." which Natsu agrees with "Aye!", causing Lucy to ask what had gotten into him. Mira then draws a picture of Erza beating up Natsu, explaining "Natsu's afraid after challenging Erza to a fight and got beaten up." to which Lucy asks "What made him think that was a good idea?" as others chimed in about Gray getting beaten up after she saw him wandering around in his undergarments, while also punching Loke for hitting on her, which Lucy then said "Yeah, I can't really blame her."

"Natsu, Grey, I need you two to do me a favor." Erza asks in seriousness, surprising the two mentioned boys, then continues "While traveling I overheard something that has me worried." catching Grimek's attention as Aqshy, Chamon, and Liz head for the entrance, as she adds "Normally I would consult with the Master before acting, but he's not here and this is of the utmost urgency. You two are the strongest wizards here I know and I could really use your help." to which everyone in the guild begins muttering in surprise, as Mira then says "Natsu, Gray, and Erza teaming up together? I never saw that one coming. This maybe Fairy Tail's strongest team." which surprises Lucy somewhat before everyone hears a loud yell from the main entrance, and Ghur was sent flying into the hall at such force that it knocked Chamon and Liz on their backs, the latter being knocked unconscious.

"Yer sloppy Ghur. I told ya to keep on practicing defensive moves." a gruff voice exclaimed, before a familiar face showed itself at Fairy Tail's entrance, smoking a pipe as he walked in. Everyone at Fairy Tail thought the newcomer was weird, with his large bright orange mohawk which is as tall as Elfman, in torn up clothes, runic like tattoos, and the several axes he carried. Not only that but the man had a even larger beard then Grimek that covered his entire scarred body, divided into multiple braids, with a iron eye patch over his left eye. To most people, this man was either very unsettling or confusing to see; for Lucy and her friends though, except Liz and Ghur, who had been knocked out from the collision, it was someone they never chose to fight. "So this is tha infamous Fairy Tail huh? Shoddy Umgi craftsmanship as ever I see." the Dwarf complained as he then asked "Do ya ave any ale?" to which Mira nodded and went to fetch him one, as he sat at the bar waiting, still smoking his pipe, irking Erza as she disapproved of smoking in the guild hall, let alone disliking it in general.

"Grimek do you have the mark?" the dwarf asked, to which Grimek walked up to him and presented a Iron Brand of Fairy Tail, confusing many present. "Here's to me joining the guild with comrades!" the dwarf said as he took the brand, heated it with a black stone axe, and pressed the symbol into his good eye, freaking everyone present out. What was further unnerving was that the Dwarf did not even yell, scream, or howl in pain; merely grunting in slight discomfort. "Who the heck is that?!" Natsu asked loudly, somewhat in awe and freaking out at the same time, to which Lucy answered tearfully "That would be my uncle Unthor Grudgefist, Slayer Lord of The Dwarf Slayer Cult." which several people looked at her then him before looking back at her for having someone so crazy to brand themselves with Fairy Tail's mark be her uncle.

Mira returned with Fairy Tail's best ale and served him his mug of ale, who thanked her before taking a sip. However, as soon as Unthor did, he spewed it back out on the floor and shouted angrily "By Tha Three Ancestors! What the bloody ell is this?!" before then turning to Mira, loudly asking in anger "What is tha? Goat piss?!" which shocked most in Fairy Tail, including Cana, with Mira replying nervously "Um Fairy Tail's best ale?" but before the Dwarf could go on a tirade about the ale, Erza, having enough of the Dwarf's rather rude and disrespectful behavior, swung a sword dangerously close to his head, though did cut off a braid of his beard, freaking out Lucy and her friends that were still conscious.

"Apologize for your disrespect or receive your punishment." Erza demanded though Unthor's eye was covered in shadow as he looked down at the cut beard braid, saying rather flatly "Ye cut me beard." to which Erza tilted her head in slight confusion, asking "What of it?" before Unthor then said again, though more coldly "Ye cut me beard." to which Grimek said fearfully to Erza and Unthor "Uncle she didn't mean anythin by it and she's sorry about it. Right miss Erza?" though Erza then replies in annoyance "Sorry about what?".

Before anyone knew or saw it, the next moment had Unthor sitting on Erza, who was face down on the floor, pinning her legs up in the air with one arm and her arms behind her between his legs, with a upraised axe in his other hand, though could not see his face, causing everyone in Fairy Tail to panic, as Erza was one proud warrior woman who did not take kindly to being shamed in such a way. However as she turned her head to face Unthor in outrage, her visible eye began to grow in terror, much to everyone's confusion, as even the strongest members and Makarov himself could not even intimidate Erza. In Erza's eyes however, it seemed the Dwarf was grinning maniacally with his eye glowing a demonic red, reminding her of a terrifying man that participated in the assault of The Tower of Heaven, who was called by someone to be the Blackstone Butcher.

"Unthor, stop!" Lucy shouted fearfully, hoping she would stop Unthor before he let his dangerous side out, knowing if she failed Erza and others could get hurt. Thankfully, Unthor still had some restraint, losing the maniacal look as he asked loudly in annoyance "She cut me beard Little Gold Heart. Tha is a great insult to a dawi and ye know it. Only those we trust are even allowed to trim it, so why should I not take tha out of her hide?" to which Lucy replied seriously, though still slightly nervous "She didn't know about a dwarf's pride in their beards and hair, but you should also remember, you insulted her guild by saying some rather mean things about it. I say you should consider each other even, so you two apologize to each other and stop fighting, alright?"

"Her first then. I am not apologizing till she does so first." Unthor demanded, glaring at Erza below him, which everyone in Fairy Tail were shocked when Erza actually apologized "I apologize for cutting your beard, Master Unthor. I did not know the beard was as important to you as my guild." to which Unthor does not seem to be fazed till he finally stands and sheathes his axe, saying without care "Fine and I apologize for insulting yer precious guild." and helps Erza up with a outstretched hand. Lucy, Grimek, Aqshy, and Chamon sigh in relief before Natsu then shouts "What the hell Erza?! You never give up! What's with you?!" to which everyone's jaws hit the ground at Natsu's outburst, except Erza and Unthor, the later turning to him as the former smacked him upside the head.

"Ye smell familiar." Unthor says, confusing everyone before Erza then asks him humbly "If it is no trouble, Master Unthor, I would like you to assist me, Natsu, and Gray in a grave matter of importance to me." to which Unthor looks at her uncaring, stating "If I bring Little Gold Heart, then yeah, I'll gladly go. Though I will require details when we are underway." to which Erza agrees, much to Natsu, Gray, and Lucy's protests, as Erza then adds "We leave in the morning then." at which Lizbeth suddenly wakes shouting "Ham, Hash Browns, and Sourdough Bread with my Granny Omelette please!" causing everyone to strangely look at Liz.


The next morning at Magnolia station, Natsu and Gray are complaining about working together as Lucy sits on a bench on the sidelines with Happy beside her and Plue in her lap. Unthor arrives in the attire he was in yesterday with what also looked like tape and a circlet holding his beard braid to the rest of his beard, shouting in annoyance at the two "Ye Umgi buffoons gonna shut it or am I gon have ta beat ya into thee ground me self." causing the two to become best buds instantly, since if someone could beat Erza, they should be cautious around him. "Now ya both are more ridiculous." Unthor stated loudly with shark teeth, obviously perturbed by their sudden shift of attitude.

"Ah you all arrived. Good." Erza stated, which everyone turned to greet her, though Lucy's eyes bulge out of her sockets in surprise as Unthor's eye begins to twitch in further annoyance, at seeing how much Erza packed, which was a cart basically. "What is tha?" Unthor states rather annoyed, confusing Erza, before saying it again more loudly "What the ell is tha?!" which he then shouted in outrage "What is this?!" which kind of surprises Erza, Happy, Natsu, and Gray though Lucy begins to try calming the dwarf slayer down as he begins cursing in Dwarf speech.

"Did I do something to upset him?" Erza asks, slightly nervous of the Dwarf pinning her down in public in anger, which Lucy explains nervously "He never expected someone to bring a cart's worth of luggage and finds it rather ridiculous.". After a few minutes of Unthor having calming down a bit, he then states "Whatever, let's just get underway." before Natsu shouts "Wait! Before we go, I want to fight Unthor when we get back to Fairy Tail from whatever this is." to which Erza, Gray, Happy, and Lucy all look at him as if he is insane for challenging the guy that kicked Erza's behind so easily. After a brief period of silence however, Unthor begins to laugh much to everyone's surprise, agreeing by saying "Sure boy. If we get back without any incidents, I'll fight ya." which further frightens those that heard the challenge.

Natsu's enthusiasm drops when he sees him getting on the train, knowing he would have to ride as well. On the train, Unthor sits in a corner booth while Natsu, Erza, Gray, Lucy, and Happy sit two seats ahead. Erza was about to protest to Unthor sitting alone, before Lucy then explains "He has really good hearing and prefers to sit alone, so just let him be." at which Erza nods before she then explains why she gathered them. As they get underway on the train, Natsu begins to feel ill, to which Gray states insultingly "Dang it Natsu. One moment your picking a fight, the next your like this. Why do you even bother getting on if you know this will happen?" to which Erza asks Lucy to switch places with Natsu, which she takes as more like an order that Unthor would give, and does so.

A few moments after Natsu sits down, Erza punches him quickly in the gut, knocking him out cold, which frightens Lucy, Gray, and Happy, as Unthor is unable to see what was happening. "That should settle him down for a bit." Erza explains as Lucy then asks "So what type of magic do you use Erza?" which Happy answers "Erza's magic is really pretty. It makes her enemies blood go everywhere!" which makes Lucy feel uneasy as Unthor sneezes.

Meanwhile somewhere in Karak Trado, several people sneeze at the same time, as well as every Dwarf Slayer in the world. Back to the train, Erza replies "I don't think much of my magic. In fact I think Gray's is much prettier then mine." which Gray asks then "You think so?" before putting his hands together briefly before opening them, creating a miniature ice sculpture of Fairy Tail's symbol, amazing Lucy.

Suddenly, Lucy realizes and says "So that's why you two don't get along! Natsu's fire and your ice!" to which Erza then states that she never thought of that before, as Gray corrects her, saying "Nah, I just hate his stinking guts." before then asking "Besides, don't you think it's about time you told us what this is about Erza?" at which Erza nods before then explaining "On my way back from my mission, I stopped by a bar in Onibas where wizards and dwarfs frequent, and there a few people drew my attention."


Flashback to The Axe Mug Bar in Onibas, the patrons are drinking and having a general good time till a mage shouts angrily "Hey what's the hold up?!" to which the bar is rather upset, particularly a group of Dwarfs and Erza as a bar maid apologizes for the wait. "For Crissakes! Get a move on lady!" to which his companions tell him to settle down, his name being mentioned as Byard. "Nobody could take this aggravation and not get mad!" Byard complains still as he uses his magic to take the ale from the mug being brought by the bar maid to his own mug, then adds "I mean we finally find out where Lullaby is, and there's that seal! What kind of seal is that?! Nothing we did broke it!" to which his friends begin to tell him to keep quiet as the Dwarfs begin to go silent, peeking Erza's interest.

"Don't worry about it. I'll take it from here. You three head on back to the guild and tell Erigor that I will return in three days with Lullaby in hand." a young man reassures his friends, which has them in awe, mentioning his name to be Kageyama. However a Dwarf bouncer approaches their table, and says gruffly "Excuse me but your friend there is causing a ruckus and needs to leave. Pay for him as well." to which Byard laughs at the order, though Kageyama and their two companions look at him like he's an idiot. "And who's gonna make me? You short stack?!" Byard laughs before trying to throw a punch but is deflected by the dwarf's own arm, and socks him in the face, knocking him out, then turns to the other three, asking "Any more troublemakers?" though Kageyama shakes his head before answering "No but he was supposed to be leaving with my two friends here. Sorry about the trouble. I'll be paying for their drinks." as the two left, though the dwarfs still seemed to be grumbling about something.


Back in the present, Gray then asks "Lullaby?" to which Lucy thinks she has read or heard the name somewhere, though Unthor seems to lift his head as if listening more intently. "Yes but all I know is that it was sealed and Erigor of Eisenwald wants it." Erza explains before then adding in frustration "The man known as Erigor the Reaper, Ace of Eisenwald, would only take assassination requests. However, those requests were banned by the council and he continued to take those jobs, even though his Guildmaster decided to accede to the council's wishes. Because of that, the Eisenwald guild master was imprisoned and the guild was disbanded for disobeying the council's rules. However, Erigor turned them into a Dark Guild, opposing the council at every turn."

"Well this is dangerous. Why am I here again?" Lucy asks as she sweats in fear, which Happy notices and calls her slimy, before she then states "It's sweat.". "Your uncle, Unthor made it a condition but I was careless then, if I had recognized the name then, I would have beaten them within a inch of their lives for information" Erza continues, to which Lucy corrects Erza, saying "But if you did that, they might give you false information or worse, tip off their boss about you coming for them. I think this is probably a better solution." to which Erza reluctantly nods, before then adding "And that is why we are storming the Eisenwald Guild." which freaks Lucy out a bit as Gray enthusiastically grins while Unthor smirks.

At Onibas Station, as Lucy, Gray, Happy, and Erza get off, Gray asks "Are you sure those Eisenwald guild guys are still here?" with Erza replying unsure "That's what we are here to find out." at which Happy then asks "Hey guys? Where's Natsu and Unthor?" as the train leaves. "They're both still on the train!" Lucy exclaims in shock, as she knows about Natsu's motion sickness and Unthor's habit of being the last one in a group. "We were so busy talking I forgot about Natsu and Unthor on the train. I know Natsu hates all forms of transportation. Truly, Unthor is a great honorable dwarf. I need one of you to hit me for my penance." Erza explains as Gray and Happy turn the other way as Lucy then asks nervously "How about we just talk to the management people? I am sure they would be able to help us and there would be no need of penance then."


On the train, Natsu was still having troubles with his motion sickness, as Unthor sat in the corner still. A young man that is identified as Kageyama from Erza's story, however approaches and sits across from Natsu, asking "Are you all right? You seem to be in pain." before noticing his guild mark, then says unsympathetically "Your a Fairy Tail wizard huh? A legal guild? How I envy you." as he then goes on "I have heard a lot about Fairy Tail. Mirajane is pretty famous, appearing in the magazines every now and again. I wonder why she went off active duty? She is still very young. I also heard there is a new girl member that is very cute. I don't remember her name, but I do know she has blonde hair." before his tone then becomes rather dark, stating "You know expulsion sucks. We dark guilds are discriminated against and yet we did nothing to earn it other then a member doing some illegal activity or something along those lines." then adds taunting Natsu "You know what we at Eisenwald call you wizards of Fairy Tail? Flies. Fairy Flies." before then laughing.

"Why you little-urk" Natsu begins to challenge Kageyama, though his motion sickness gets in the way, forcing him to sit down, as Kageyama laughs while asking "What magic was that?" before his smile turned sinister and said "Let me show you some real magic." and stretches his shadow in arms to hit Natsu, though are stopped by Unthor blocking them with a open palm, surprising Kageyama that someone else was nearby, having never sensed him. Unthor then says threateningly "Ye threatened lil gold heart, insult tha guild, an dare ta strike a opponent while he is unable ta lift a finger to defend himself? No wonder yer guild is na appreciated an labelled a Dark Guild. These actions are very insulting ta Dawi. Course I am one ta talk about insulting tha guild." and pushes the magic into the floor, back into Kageyama's shadow, beginning to freak him out that the dwarf was not only a part of Fairy Tail, but that he went so far to brand the guild mark around his good eye and using brute force to keep his magic at bay.

Suddenly the train stops, causing both Natsu and Kageyama to fall over onto the floor, the later's bag opening to let a strange wooden flute with a three eyed skull on one end of it, fall out to be seen by both Natsu and Unthor, with later's face turning into one of anger at seeing it. "Why the heck did the train stop?!" Kageyama asks loudly in surprise as he sits up.


Back at Onibas Station, Erza is seen next to a pulled lever with a sign above it saying 'Emergency Brake System' with Gray, Happy, and Lucy in the background, the last being to shocked for words at Erza's audacity, as a train employee complains to her, saying "What are you doing lady?! You can't come in here and pull the Emergency Lever!" with a Dwarf engineer coming up to them while Erza explains calmly "It's for our comrades Natsu and Unthor. Please understand." at which the employee is about to protest before the engineer says "Settle down lad. If tis who I think she is referring to, this Unthor is a good nough reason ta pull tha lever then. Let em be. Ye ave five minutes before I start tha system back up, miss." to which Erza thanks the dwarf and leaves with Lucy, Gray, and Happy, with Gray wondering what Unthor did to become such a valid excuse to pull a emergency lever on a train.


Back to the train, Natsu and Kageyama have regained their balance, the later seeing the flute being seen by both Unthor and Natsu. "You saw it." Kageyama begins but is punched by Natsu, his magic blowing the roof of the train car off. As Kageyama is recovering from Natsu's attack, the three men hear the train would be resuming it's route shortly which causes Natsu to panic and reach for his things as Unthor waits by the door. "Hey we're not done yet!" Kageyama shouted at them before Unthor turns to give a chilling glare to him, saying coldly "Yer right umgi an tell Erigor tha Luna will come fer im if I fail." as the train begins to move once more, causing Natsu to suffer from another bout of his motion sickness. "Damn ya Umgi. Never can understand why ya build contraptions ye can't stomach." Unthor grumbles before grabbing Natsu's scarf and hurling him out the window, before turning back to Kageyama, saying "Remember tha even The Reaper learned is trade from someone else." before jumping out after the pinkette, confusing the young shadow mage at what he just witnessed.

Outside, Erza has acquired a magic mobile, with Lucy and Happy riding inside while Gray holds onto the top, they witness Natsu fly out the side of the train and collide with Gray, just as Unthor leaps out. Erza pulls the car over to a halt, and asks in worry "Natsu. Master Unthor. Are you both alright?" to which Natsu simply replies Aye as he lays next to Gray and Unthor just gives a thumbs up with a grunt. After regaining their bearings, Gray begins to try and pick a fight with Natsu, who complains about everyone leaving him on the train, with Unthor the only one staying with him.

"Ah quit yer whining. They came back to get us." Unthor stated in boredom, which Natsu then instantly shut up about his complaints about that as Natsu then says "Well I am kind of shaken up a bit, since a guy attacked me on the train." before Unthor adds "He said he was with Eisenwald. Apparently they plan ta use a death curse flute, known as Lullaby." then spits on the ground as if tasting something foul. He then heads to the magic mobile and instead of putting the magic link on his arm, opens a side compartment in the driver's seat, placing three runes inside. "Everyone hop in the back. I'm driving." Unthor stated with a smile, forcing everyone to hesitantly enter the vehicle.


At Kanugi Station where the train has stopped, a man falls to the ground, resembling a dried up skeleton, before a white haired man carrying a scythe and covered with tattoos with the entirety of Eisenwald present behind him. He then orders them to throw off passengers, workmen, and luggage. Kageyama then steps off the train, asking sarcastically "Well look who's here?" and draws the attention the tattooed man, saying "Kageyama. I heard you were coming back aboard this train. There also seems to be a bit of wreckage. Care to explain?" at which Kageyama deflects it by asking "Oh come on Erigor. Aren't you at least curious what I brought back with me?" and shows him Lullaby.

"Very good but still, what happened?" Erigor asked at which Kageyama finally concedes in answering, stating "A bunch of legal mages from Fairy Tail showed up and planned on raiding our base, however two of them were still on the train. I was going to take care of them, but the second one caught me off guard. He was a Dwarf with a Iron Eyepatch and big beard. Told me to deliver you a message: Luna will come for you if he fails; Does that mean any-" but stops as he sees Erigor's expression turns into one of both anger and fear, saying "Tell everyone we are going to make a slight detour. If this Dwarf knows my mentor at the Onadheim College of Magic, I need to ensure that he is preoccupied while executing our plan to ensure he does not warn her of our plans."

AN: By the gods this was tiresome. To you who have made it this far and reviewed, I hope you continue to stick with us. Fairy Tail has come to a close (But not this story) and in the Seven Deadly Sins, I am now gonna say Escanor is my baby. He is too precious. XD Again feel free to PM story requests or character ideas and as always, leave a review, like, and/or favorite. Till next time dear readers! Escanor, bring me a glass of water. *Said being goes to get me one* Thank you.
