Fairy Tail: Frozen Flames

Chapter 17

Natsu and Gray stopped by a dark guild, took each member out, and finally caught their breath. Everyone else was also ambushed by other dark guilds trying to prevent them from getting closer to the Oracion Seis and finding Wendy and Happy.

Natsu takes another whiff to catch Happy's or Wendy's scent and bolts it out of there like a bat out of hell. Natsu finally stops in front of what looks like a cave; the fire dragon slayer enters the cavern to see Wendy passed out on the ground. Zero is standing next to no other than Jellal, who is standing quietly, not doing anything except staring off into space.

Natsu looks at Jellal with anger in his eyes while clenching his fists as he will attack him. However, Zero uses his magic to slam Natsu into the cavern's walls hard. Simultaneously, Jellal nonchalantly passes by Natsu and Wendy while the rest of the Oracion Seis leave the cave and head out in different directions.

After some, sometime Natsu finally wakes up and picks up Wendy, gently resting her over his shoulder. Carla heads towards Natsu, who is holding Wendy over his shoulder. "It looks like the young girl used up her magic already. Silly child, you knew what would happen," she jabbers as she looks at the unconscious sky dragon slayer.

Natsu picks up Carla and runs as fast as his feet can carry him. While running, he hears a voice in his head, "this is Hibiki; bring Wendy to this location.

I'll meet you here," says Hibbiki in his head, telling Natsu to meet him where Fuyu, Hibiki, Erza have moved to a more secluded spot.

Carla uses her powers to float in the air and picks up Wendy, Happy, and Carla when Gray shouts out to be careful since an Oracion Seis member was in the vicinity. Even with Natsu's animalistic sense of smell and sight, he couldn't pinpoint the enemy's exact location. Even if he could fight the fire, the dragon slayer wouldn't be able to since he is holding an unconscious member of their party in his arms.

That's when a giant wall of ice emerges behind Natsu blocking the speed mage Race from destroying Natsu. He smiles, looking about the mage who created the wall "Gray!" he screams as his black-haired companion walks towards him. "Hey, fire breath, get Wendy to Erza quickly!" orders Gray as Racer breaks the wall of ice with his speed.

Natsu agrees and runs off towards Erza with Wendy, Carla, and Happy still in his arms.

**** Fuyu's POV****

I'm watching over Erza's condition, still making sure ensuring on doesn't spread any faster. That's when I look around to see that Hibiki and Lucy were talking about the next phew steps they should take to fight against Oracion Seis.

I look up at the clear blue sky to feel like something was wrong with this whole situation. While contemplating our predicament, the wind gently sways the trees, giving the calm before the storm. While I catch a whiff of the fresh air, I notice a familiar scent, to realize that it was Natsu with the others.

After a while, the bushes near us start to bustle and make noise to finally have the hot-headed fire mage emerge carrying Wendy, Happy, and Carla. I sigh in relief, knowing that they were safe, until I hear something like bombs going off, and jump to a tall branch to see large pillars of ice.

Natsu looks up and reassures me that Gray will be safe and well. I smile. "Hey, you guys watch out coming down!" I scream, trying not to fall on top of anyone; that's when I see Lucy was nowhere around, Wendy was up and crying while healing Erza, and Hibiki was working on his archive magic.

I walk up to Hibiki "before you ask, she went to check on some members who needed more help," he responds before I could muster my question. From a distance, I hear what seems to be the sound of a bomb from where grey was; I listen to what sounds like groaning from behind. I turn around to see Erza awake, and Wendy looks exhausted and pale, passing out from using her magic.
