========================================================================

Lores lunged for Natsu like an out of control beast.  He slammed his palm into Natsu's face, making him fly backwards through the air.  With his hand still on Natsu's face, Lores made the both them fly through the first floor's walls with incredible force.  They emerged on the other side, and Lores pressed Natsu into the ground head-first as they continued to sail forward.

"Don't worry, Lucy!"  Happy exclaimed, flying towards her on the third floor.  "I'll get you out of there!"

Lucy looked relieved, but it quickly turned to shock in the split of a second.

Happy was flying towards her, but as soon as he started to enter the ceiling, a blue barrier rippled and Happy collided with it.  Before Lucy could cry out in worry, a white light surrounded Happy, who looked at his body wildly.

"H-Happy?!"  Lucy exclaimed, confused but also fearful.

"My body is glowing!"  Happy exclaimed.

Lucy recognized this.

The Disappearance Staff.

Lucy tried to jump and grab Happy's paw, but the exceed disappeared right before her fingertips brushed his fur.

Lucy dropped back to the ground, her eyes staring helplessly as the spot Happy once hovered.

Was he sent out too?!  Lucy wondered, her eyes shaking.

Lucy turned to look at Natsu and Lores, who had progressed down the area.

But how?!  Lucy wondered wildly.  Virgo destroyed the Disappearance Staff!  How was it used when it was broken?

If Happy really was transported outside the gate...please let him be with the others!

"Fire Dragon's Roar!"  Natsu exclaimed, slamming his feet into the ground.

"Ice Dragon's Roar!"  Lores yelled right after, following the same movements as mist formed at his mouth.
