Lucy sat in the guild hall, at the bar to be exact. Clenched in her hand was a strawberry smoothie. A pink silly straw curled from the drink to her mouth. Fairy Tail's heaviest drinker sat next to the celestial mage. She drunkenly laughed at her, chugging the barrel of beer. The blue cat sat comfortably on her shoulder, eating a fish. The guild was it's normal self- loud fighting roared throughout the building.

Elfman picked up a table at launched it at Gray, saying "Strength is Manly!". The oak table crashed against a shirtless ice-make mage. He brushed off a few pieces of wood that rested on his shoulder. Gray turned around, throwing an ice attack towards him, though he dodged. The ice spear flew towards the door. The ice shimmered, as snow and shards fell from the flying weapon. The Ice Lance flew towards the doors, that was just opened.

A salmon-haired man had just opened the heavy doors as the ice spear flew towards him.

Time seemed to slow down as the guild realized what was happening. They froze at his reaction. Fast as lightning, he snapped his hand towards the ice spear. His hand gripped it tightly, as it stopped not even an inch from his face. He growled as he tightened his grip. The blue spear shattered as shimmered to the ground.

Gray's blood ran cold at the look Chaos gave him. The looked was full of fury and bloodlust. Chaos closed his eyes and visibly shook with anger.

He took a step forward, earning a frighted cry from Gray. Natsu growled again, as he opened his eyes. They were no longer his normal onyx colour, but a blood red. He smirked, hissing a few words. However, his voice was deeper and rougher.

"I'm going to kill you".

Natsu reached over his shoulder, clutching a part of his cape. He pulled the black cape over him. It wasn't until he threw it harshly to the side that they knew that he meant every single one of his words.

He sauntered forwards, earning frightened yelps from the guild. They scattered out of his way as he slowly strode over to Gray. The dark magic swirled off of him, whirling around the mage's feet.

Anyone who was within ten feet of the dragon slayer was thrown back harshly. They either landed on another guild member or crashed into the wall. For the mages that were hit by another memeber, they all fell over.

Lucy was sitting behind Gray, eyeing Natsu. Her eyes gazed over his heavily scarred chest. Seeing this, she got an idea.

She jumped off the chair, scurrying to the left of the guild hall. Natsu ignored her, assuming she was just getting out of the way. The dragon slayer continued his way forward, his magic flaring as if in warning. Gray looked horrified at Natsu. He put his hands together to innate an attack. "I-ice make..." He stuttered as he carefully watched Chaos. Said mage had his right fist aflame with a plasma blue flame. Even from the twenty-feet space between them, the ice-make mage could feel the heat.

He took a cautious step back as Natsu took several forwards.

However, something happened that no one expected. Lucy stood in front of Natsu, a brave look on her face.

Chaos scoffed at the brave stance of the Heartfilia girl. But there was something... off. Everyone else radiated fear, panic, and hate. All of the human's negative emotions were defined by 'chaos', and they all fulled his magic. Yet the mage in front of him showed no fear.

"Move" he growled lowly, still determined to end the life of the ice-mage who almost impaled him. Lucy stayed still, looking up to the furious dragon slayer. His gaze was pure intimidation, yet she stood her ground.
