"Wait-! What do you mean... dead by?" Asked the scarlet-haired mage, a sword in hand. Since its not everyday you here that people are supposedly dying without any trace of what happened- or who did it.
"Well Erza-san," Lahar breathed, his hand streched out towards the resort infront them, "Its exactly what it seems. As you can see the resort seems completely normal. But- at night. Its..." He paused, trying to think of the right word to use.
"Unusual." He finished, bring everyone to confusion excluding a certain white-haired boy.
"Okay, what do you mean by that?" The blue-haired girl countered, wanting to know why he said the park seems, unusual. Lahar sighed, and took a turn towards the girl.
"Well Florebit-san. Why don't you all follow me and I will show you." He turned back towards the resort and started walking towards the main office, Fairy Tail and Sabertooth not so far behind.

I sighed, "Why are we in the basement of this establishment, Captain?"
The basement was once a wine cellar. The most exclusive vintages of Magnolia were shelved in wooden racks, trusted to the natural refrigeration of the soil behind the dense stone walls. There are ancient brackets for candles every few feet, but it's been so long since they were used that there isn't even any wax residue on them. It smells musty but in the dim light provided by the single bare bulb that dangles from the ceiling I can't see any water seeping in. At five foot seven I'm hardly a giant but I must keep my head bowed as I walk around it. It's larger than it seems from the doorway, and there are some alcoves built in.
"My thoughts exactly." Nodded the elder Hydra sister, Zellia. I whiffed the prude air and the faint smell of blood filled my nose. The blood wavered awhile before disappearing, and being replaced with a salty, like tears smell.
"Well, I am going to show you just how these workers have," He took in shaky breath, "died." He finished, not wanting to talk any longer. Why was he so shaken? From my studies, and living; it must be Master X's doing most likely from what I have seen him do. Sick psychopath.
A small wood door peaked from above the dense stone walls. He pushed down a lamp, and the wall shifted, revealing a small passage way to the wood door.

I, have no Idea on how to exactly end this chapter, so. Why not a cliffhanger? Sorry for not updating for quite awhile, I've been... locked away. How? Well, lets just say my parents went on a trip without me and my nee-chan.
So, I decided to go exploring, and we have a basement in my grandmas house. Well, lets just say. I was locked in there for 2 days. (I was staying there when my parents were out. There back now, so...)
DON'T WORRY! I had food, since they have a mini refrigerator in there, and water. Also they have a bed, and of course the usual living utensils that I would need.
So, that is my story on HOW I came up with the basement details. Just saying, I removed all of the new century stuff. Also, I added the lamps and door. (Everything else? Almost there, but it was Europe not Magnolia)
