*Chapter 14*

( VICTIMS OF LuOsVtE )

Natsu woke up from his slumber; he couldn't ignore the scent that was lingering in his room, the scent of a drunken, aphrodisiac influenced one night stand. A sincere smile grew on his once serious and none caring face.

He looked at the woman on top of him; her hair covered a part of her face. He lifted his hand and with his finger, he tucked the hair behind her ear. Beautiful. He thought, but on his peripheral vision he saw the mark on her neck.

His eyes widened, It's a mistake… but why does it felt so right… He thought, looking at the mark, two punctured holes was on her neck. Wait… she did not betray me, why is the mark on her? He asked himself. He carefully slid off of Erza and left the bed.

He stood up and looked for his clothes and he put his pants on quietly, his back facing her. Erza stirred when she move her hands and felt no one was there lying beside her. She slowly opens her eyes and she end up staring at his back, she squinted her eyes when she saw something at his back. A sword…? She thought, before she could observe more on that tattoo it was already covered by his clothing.

"Natsu…?" Erza called out and he faced her.

"Erza… Please... trust me, as I, to you." Natsu started, "Sleep well, my love." He said, she felt a pang of pain in her heart as he taps her forehead, causing her to go back to sleep. He turned his back on her again, but this time he left her on his bed. Without the two knowing or realizing, the two punctured holes on her neck glowed and change into something… A sword and its handle is a dragon's head.

A significance of trust was formed behind it all.

Natsu was now standing with his teammates, he glanced at Erza's team and she was still nowhere to be found. He could feel it, the confusion and glares that came from his ex-guild.

"So… Is she sealed?" Ivy asked.

"Of course she would be sealed, you moron." Charlie said and it earned him a punch at the gut delivered by Ivy.

"Is she…?" Ivy asked, she knew he doesn't want what happened but there's something behind that look, something she envied at first but then accepted when she discovered she'll never have it.

"Yes." He said glaring at the stadium where Beau stands with a huge grin, he grabbed Ivy and the two disappeared faster than it used to be.

The three men, Zeth, Charlie, and Keene looked at each other and gave a knowing look. Erza's finally sealed. Her heart would be against her mind, what ever would be her decision that involves Natsu. They smirked and the Kid gave them confused looks.

She is sealed between love, hate, guilt, and other emotions. She sealed herself to him.

The three knew... that temporary and blissful night for Erza and maybe for Natsu was the reason and time she is sealed.

"Soon… the dawn would never be seen again." Zeth smirked looking at the sky and ignoring the battle that is going on the stadium. "Soon… you will be back."

And... that same night was the time he unsealed himself, no, she unsealed him- his memories but by unsealing his memories he will be torn, he would be torn between his heart and his mind, his memories and his will, and his passion and his anger. He… is confused.

Humanity will definitely lose and the dawn will never be seen again if he will remain the same- if he won't change... for the better. With his heart in her hand, with his memories slow return, with his will on revenge, with his passion on protecting, and his anger… his anger on the ones who used him- he has to play his cards right, he has to pick the correct chess pieces to win.

"Ivy..." Natsu started.

*Chapter 1*

( A Bad Premonition )

Somewhere in Fairy Tail's area

Carla was once again in her trance, it was longer, longer than it used to. A premonition of everyone's future, not just Fairy Tail, not just every guild, not just Fiore, but the world's future, and it is a bad future.

At first it was random and it all didn't make sense.

Natsu didn't have his cloak, he was glaring at something or someone and only the moon's light shown his angered face, his hands were covered in flames, orange flames.

Gray was glaring, a voice was whispering at him. He was glaring at an un-seen form of a person. He was breathing heavily, his hair covered the side of his face. "Since... she is water, if I froze her completely... will she break like one?" The voice asked as he put his arm over Juvia's shoulder.

Charlie had a grin on his face, he played the keys in his hands as Lucy glared at him.

Erza looked at Natsu, anger, betrayal, regret, and other negative emotions was given to him. "Trust?!" She spat.

Happy tried to stand from the powerful intensity, a power display of power like what Gildarts did to Natsu on Tenrou Island. He tried, he did, he is successful, but... he can't do anything beside standing and glaring at them.

She looked at Deadly Sin's master, fear was clear in her eyes and some of the Fairy Tail members noticed it. She played the memory in her mind.

"Isn't it funny… that your sword is stabbing you?" Zeth asked with a smirk playing on his lips, the sword's handle in his hand and a mad, blood lust look is clear in his eyes. It was dark; you can't see people clearly, only the light of one person showed the mad look on Zeth's face, and that person was the one getting stabbed by him.

"Zeth." He said, gritting his teeth as he tried to push his hand that held the sword's handle. His hands were covered in flames, without a doubt they knew it could be Natsu or Ryu, but the hair revealed it, a nightmare for all, his hair – is pink.

"Natsu!" Someone called out.

Carla opened her eyes, she was also gritting her teeth but another flashed in her mind.

"Such beauty... I don't want to waste." Beau said with a smirk. "Just a sip, love." He was trying to make Mira drink a potion, a potion that they have no idea what was mixed in it.

Keene had his arms over Elfman and Lisanna's shoulder.

Charlie had Lucy's keys dangling in his hand.

"Don't drink!" A voice shouted, her eyes and hair glowing red, and with that it gave the two siblings an opening, freeing themselves from Keene.

"Envy?" Beau asked, his smirk widened as she saw Ivy's form. "Ah… at least the fool is gone." He mumbled. "Welcome back, dear friend." He said.

She opened her eyes again, even with open eyes something flashed in front of her. Her body shook, "W-what is... Why did...?" Confusion was mixed in her voice.

Natsu's bloodied scarf flew in the air like paper, falling slowly, and no one caught it. No one did because no one can.

"Carla?" Happy asked, putting a hand on her shoulder.

"I-I-It's n-nothing." She whispered, she tensed up when she saw Beau, playing with Lucy's keys.

"It doesn't look like nothing to me..." He said as he looked at what she saw. Happy decided to bring Carla to the infirmary in their team's corridor but he stopped when he felt her tensing up again, she was staring at nothing, her eyes wide in fear, it was nothing like her.

She thought it was over but there was one more, one more premonition trying to catch up.

Something that'll be in her nightmare, something that is more believable because it did happen once, and something... something she will never forget because it might happen. She snapped out and looked around; Levy was not there... again.

It played again like a broken record, like a fragment of her memory.

Levy ran out of the infirmary where Gajeel is, she is calling out for help, she is too late, she was too late, she didn't got out of the guild, she didn't. No one heard her cries and begs, the guild soon crumbled down, a man was walking out of the guild's rubbles, walking away of the guild as if nothing happened, as if the guild is nothing to him.

A grin was fixed on his face, a look of amusement and enjoyment was in his eyes, he looked at his right arm, blood was seen on it and it was slowly sliding down his hand and it fell on the ground.

DRIP

He looked back at the rubbles and looked at the art he did, he is proud of it.

"Gihee."

Gajeel... is back in a premonition, but... whose side is he?
