(Y/N) pov

The beach. A place of relaxation, entertainment and sunburns. I was resting on a lawn chair with some pizza by my side. Letting the sun rays hit my body. Resting from the activities the others dragged me into.

First Natsu dragged me into riding a ride with the Luxy girl only for him to get sick and demand to get off. Then me and Gray got buried in the sand by the others. Played some volleyball, I was the ref. And Erza made me swim around with her.

A pretty tiring day over all. The others were running around the beach now. Don't know why they would want to do that. Just seems like a lot of effort.

Anyway, I'm still thinking about that phantom battle. Not only did we win but nobody could find Jose. It's like he disappeared. I tried to ask Gramps if he knew anything but he said he doesn't know. It gives me a bad feeling.

Eh. Its probably nothing.

Who the hell thought wearing a suit would be a good idea? Its so stuffy. I feel like I'm suffocating. I didn't even have the blazer on.

(Y/N): Where the hell did Erza get this suit anyway... And how did she know my size?

Oh yea. We're heading to the casino. Erza wants to go test her luck amd she's dragging everyone with her. She "highly suggested" that I wear a suit.

Then someone knocked on my door.

(Y/N): come in.

Erza walks in dressed up. She looks me over.

Erza: you look nice. Although did you have to unbutton some of the buttons?

(Y/N): yawn It was absolutely neccessary. I felt like I was losing air. Puts on blazer you look nice too.

Erza: thanks.

(Y/N): Its rare to see you out of your armor.

Erza: I just feel more comfortable in it. Anyway let's go I want to check out the poker table.

Erza takes my arm and drags me out the room.

We join up with the others. Looks like Luxy dressed up too. And Grey is wearing clothes for once so that's neat.

Natsu: Let's go! I want to try out the slot machine!

Happy: Aye!

Gray: I'm gonna be at the bar.

(Y/N): I'll go with you.

Erza: I'll go test my luck at the poker table.

Luxy: Guess I'll go with you Erza.

Erza: Let's meet up here later.

Then we all went our seperate ways. I followed Gray to the bar.

Gray: I didn't know you were into alcohol (Y/N).

(Y/N): Yea. I like my drinks strong.

The bartender came over.

Bartender: What would you like?

(Y/N): A glass of milk.

Gray:... Just some wine.

Bartender: ok.

???: Gray-sama!

I looked over at the voice to see a woman who seemed to really like the color blue. She had blue hair, a blue dress, blue shoes. Although she did have a golden necklace with Fairytail's guild emblem. Guess she couldn't find a blue one.

(Y/N): Gray, do you know her?

Gray: Yea. She's that chick from Phantom.

(Y/N): I see.

I raised my hand in a very threatening manner and covered it in red lightning.

(Y/N): So you've come to die.

The lady panicked.

Blue lady: No! Phantom Lord has disbanded! Juvia am here on my own! Juvia just wanted to see Gray-sama!

(Y/N): No excu- wait "Gray-sama"?

I stop my attack, for now.

Juvia: Yes. Juvia was saved by Gray-sama and his kindness showed Juvia what the sun looked like.

Great. Not only does she speak in third-person but she speaks in metaphors too.

Gray: yeah... Anyway what's with that necklace? You interested in joining the guild or something?

Juvia: Yes. Juvia wishes to join your guild. Juvia wishes to stay by Gray-sama!

(Y/N): Is that your only reason?

Gray: well I don't know. After everything that just happened. I personally don't mind-

(Y/N): I do.

Gray: -but who knows what the Master will say.

The bartender came back with our drinks.

Bartender: Here's your drinks.

(Y/N): Thanks. Gray, pay the man.

Gray: Why do I have to?

(Y/N): Cause I need my money for rent.

I chug the glass of milk while Gray pays the bartender.

(Y/N): ahh. Thats the good stuff. Another!

Gray: You drink it likes it's beer.

Bartender refills my glass while Gray talks to the phantom woman. Juvia, I think her name is.

After 4 cups of milk, I start to feel a little woozy.

???: Gray Fullbuster.

Who is that? Is he wearing an eye patch? He's got a metal jaw too! I wonder if he's related to that other guy. What was his name.... Jorgan I think. Is that a magic circle on his eye?

Everything went black.

3rd pov

Lucy ran through the destroyed casino, looking for any of her friends.

Lucy: I can't believe Erza got kidnapped. I need to find the others!

Lucy eventually runs into an unconscious Gray and (Y/N).

Lucy: Gray! (Y/N)!

Luct tried shake (Y/N) to wake only for her hands to go through him. Realizing that she wasn't going to get anywhere with that, she attempts to wake up Gray but he turned into ice then shattered into a million pieces.

Lucy: No! Gray!

???:There's no need to panic.

Lucy: huh?

Lucy looks towards the voice to reveal Juvia who had turned part of her body into water. Lucy reaches for her keys.

Lucy: I know you. You're with Phantom!

Before Lucy could attack, another voice called out.

???: Lucy, wait!

The other voice was revealed to be Gray... Who was hiding inside of Juvia's body...

Gray: She's not our enemy anymore.

Juvia: That's right I pulled my precious Gray inside of me to ensure his safety.

Lucy: That...sound kinda weird.

Juvia then got a smug look on her face as she loomed over Lucy.

Juvia: Are you Jealous he was inside of me and not?

Lucy: sweatdrop no. Not really.

Gray: Dude cast a darkness spell so I made an ice clone to diatract him until I could figure out my plan of attack.

Juvia: I wanted to keep my Gray out of harm so I pulled him into my water lock until I was sure the danger had passed.

Gray: Yea and I couldn't do anything in there. Thanks to you the creep got away.

Juvia was left heartbroken at Gray's criticism. Oh yeah and Gray is shirtless by the way.

Gray: what about (Y/N)? Is he alright?

Lucy: I couldn't check but he hasn't move yet.

Juvia: Juvia assume he is alright considering he is asleep.

One moment of silence...two moments of silence... Three moments of silence...

Lucy/Gray: what?

Juvia: Before the man had launched his first attack, Juvia had noticed (Y/N) in a sleep state before the attack hit.

...

(Y/N): zzzz

Gray:...ok. (Y/N) is asleep. Do you know where everyone else is?

Lucy: No, I don't. Its bad. They took Erza and Happy.

Suddenly, a flame piller erupted in the distance along with a loud scream. The scream woke (Y/N) but nobody got teleported because he was facing down.

Lucy: Natsu!

(Y/N) wobbily stood up.

(Y/N): that milk must have hit me harder than I thought.

Gray: (Y/N). You're up.

(Y/N): yea. What happened while I was out?

Lucy: It's bad. These guys showed up and attacked us. And even worse, they kidnapped Erza and Happy.

That sobered (Y/N) up as he look at Lucy with a dark look.

(Y/N): What?

Gray: Look. Let's go get Natsu. He can probably track down the kidnappers.

Gray and the others went to go check on Natsu while (Y/N) stayed behind. He stared at the ground in disbelief as his eyes slowly turned into a dark red.

Timeskip

The fairy crew plus Juvia were on a ship chasing after the kidnappers with Natsu being guide because of his ability to track people's scent. At least he would be if he wasn't motion sick right now.

Gray: Come on man! We're relying on your sense of smell here!

Juvia: How dare you disappoint my Gray with your childish actions!

Gray: Geez, I still can't believe that they knocked us out so easily and took Erza and Happy.

Juvia: In our defense, they must have been powerful wizards if they were able to beat one such as Erza.

(Y/N) sent a deathly glare at Juvia.

(Y/N): They didn't beat her. Don't act like you know her, phantom.

Juvia flinched at (Y/N)'s dark tone and latched onto Gray's arm.

Lucy: They said that they were old friends of Erza, so it makes me wonder if any of us know Erza any more than Juvia.

Natsu: suddenly shot up, temporarily relieved of his motion sickness.

(Y/N): Found something.

Natsu: Yea. Looks in the distance I'm getting a bad vibe over there.

Suddenly the birds that were flying over the boat started falling into the water.

Lucy: The Birds!

Gray: What's happening to them?

They then went passed some floating pieces of wood and dead fish.

Gray: The fish too...

(Y/N): Looks like Fiore's navy beat us here.

He says as the boat passes a piece of wood with The Fiore navy insignia.

They eventually can see a dark tower looming over them in the distance.

Lucy: That's the tower of heaven!

Juvia: I'll protect us!

Juvia held her hand up and the boat was surrounded in a sphere of water.

Juvia: This will keep us from being seen.

Gray: Nice Juvia!

Juvia blushed at Gray's praise.

Juvia: Thank you so much, my dear.

Natsu then lost his momentarily relief and fell over with motion sickness.

Natsu: Hurry up... I can't take much more of this... Urgh

(Y/N): stop whining. We're almost there.

Gray: Alright. Next time, We're gonna knock you out just like Erza did.

The group landed on shore and anchores the boat. Juvia went ahead and scout from underwater. The group noticed that the tower was littered with lizards and guards.

(Y/N): A lot of guards.

Natsu: Who cares? We can just blow right through them.

(Y/N): Don't do that. If we alert the enemy, it could endanger Erza.

Natsu: What about Happy?

(Y/N): We'll have to sneak in.

Then Juvia resurfaced from the water.

Juvia: I have found a secret entrance under the tower.

Gray: Really? Way to go, Juvia!

Juvia: blushes Thank you. Anyway, it's a 10 minute swim from here.

Natsu: We can hold our breath that long right.

(Y/N): Don't even suggest that.

Juvia then summoned up a small sphere of water.

Juvia: Then use this. It's a water shell with oxygen in it, it will allow you to breath underwater.

Natsu: wow, that's awesome! What's your name again?

Juvia: It's Juvia.

(Y/N): alright, introductions over. Now let's go.

Everyone changed into their swimsuits, put on Juvia's water sphere, and jumped into the water. After swimming for a few minutes, they came into a room that had a large wooden head in it.

Gray: So we're beneath the tower now, huh?

(Y/N): Looks like it. Now where's Erza?

Natsu: And Happy.

(Y/N): Yea. Him too.

Then a roar was heard and a sentry riding on a flying monster flew by.

Sentry: Intruders!

(Y/N): just great.

An army of guards then show up.

Guard 1: Identify yourselves!

Gray: Looks like we have no choice but to fight.

Natsu: We're about to ruin your day, boys.

Natsu slammed his fist on the ground causing dust to rise up. Gray jumped out of the dust cloud and shot ice arrows at the guards while Natsu attacked with his fire magic.

Lucy: I can help too. Pulls out key Open Gate of the Maiden, Virgo!

Virgo was a pink-haired female who was wearing hand cuffs on her wrists. While she usually wears a maid outfit, she was wearing a black and white swimsuit.

Virgo then took out the last of the guards.

(Y/N): Good work.

Gray: You could help too, you know.

(Y/N): Maybe next time. Anyway, where do we go from here?

Suddenly, there was a rumble and one of the decorations opened up revealing a passage way.

Gray: Looks like an invitation to me.

(Y/N): Let's go. Yawn

A/N: End. Sorry this chapter got delayed. Was attempting to make a longer chapter and just kept procrastinating. Got it done though. ( *walks in* Oh. Your back.) Yep. Missed me? (Not the slightest. Also next go missing. At least leave some entertainment.) Sorry. Anyway that's it. To the next chapter!
