Mio's POV
It felt like all the magic from my body had drained away and got carved out of my body. I didn't even have the strength to sit up. I just collapsed onto the floor, unable to move. I felt my head being lifted onto a pair of knees, followed by seeing a guy's face above mine.
Who is this guy?
Before I could even utter a word, I blacked out.
Rogue's POV
I stared at the girl on my knees. She was fast asleep, which wasn't surprising for just how much magic energy just shot out from her body.
"Mio!" Natsu called, running over with Lucy, Sting, Gajeel and Wendy. "Is she okay?"
"I think so." I stated. "She's just sleeping. But her magic seems to be dangerously low..."
Lucy kneeled beside her and reached into her pocket. She pulled out a small pouch, if what seemed to be, purplish rocks.
"What are those things?" Sting questioned.
"They're Dimension Lacrema. She needs them to restore her magic quicker as otherwise it would take a lot of ethernanos to refuel her." She explained.
"I've never heard of a dimension wizard before." I stated.
"Well actually, she's a dragon slayer like us." Wendy smiled.
"WHAT?!?" Me and Sting almost yelled.
I looked back down at Mio, surprised.
So that's why her magic was so powerful.
Lucy popped one of the Lacrema in Mio's mouth. She instinctively swallowed it. Her body glowed for a few moments, before it dimmed back to normal. Her magic level was stable again.
We moved her into the infirmary, me having to carry her. I placed her on one of the beds and was all stood around her.
"So why haven't we heard of her before?" Sting questioned.
"Well, I only saw her again today. After like, 8 years." Natsu told us. "It's a long story really."
"We have time."
Natsu explained who exactly she was and how they met. Then what happened after the Dragons disappeared. There was a rumour that she had died. Then Lucy said about her meeting Mio, and the talent contest. Then Natsu kept saying on how they then met back up.
"Wow. It must be amazing, having your friend back after so long." Sting smiled.
"Honestly, I keep thinking I'll wake up in my bed again." He sighed, then smiling back at Mio.
"We should probably leave her to rest. Rogue, you stay and keep an eye." Sting told me.
"Why me?" I questioned.
"Because Natsu owes me a fight."
"Why not Lucy?"
"Sorry, but I promised I'd help Erza with a job earlier." She smiled, already waving half way out the door.
Sting then dragged Natsu outside for their fight. Lector went with him, and Froch stayed with me, like always.
"She seems interesting." He said in his high-pitched voice.
"No kidding. I've never heard of a dimension dragon slayer before...and that magic. It was just as powerful as our Dragon Force..."
The sun was slowly going down. I could hear the sound of Natsu's and Stings fight through the walls of the silent infirmary.
"Mhmm..."
My head snapped from the window back to Mio. Her eyes cracked open.
Mio's POV
I cracked my eyes open, adjusting to the little light that was in the room.
"Where am I?" I asked, unaware of the presence of another person.
"The infirmary." A voice answered back.
I turned my head to see that same guy from before. His hair was jet black and straight, although it was pinned back in a ponytail with some still loose by the sides of his face.
"Who are you? You're not a part of Fairy Tail, are you?" I questioned.
"No. I'm from Sabertooth. I'm Rogue, the Shadow Dragon Slayer."
"Nice to meet another fellow slayer." I smiled. "So why am I in here? What happened?"
"I'm not entirely sure. But a monster was attacking the Guild Hall, and you somehow ended up releasing all your magic energy. Which scared the thing away."
"Damn it!"
I bolted up in my bed, ignoring the pain, and shoved a hand in my pocket. I pulled out the pouch from before and looked inside.
"Crap." I muttered, just loud enough to be audible. "Only 4 left."
"I take it that's bad."
"Uh-hu. These things are next to impossible to come by. These are all that left from Ginga, my dragon. She gave me these because it takes ages for Ethernanos to refuel dimension magic." I explained. "That's why I try my best not to use my magic, or as little as possible. I originally had eight. Two used during the time from 07/07/777, one while I was helping Lucy and one from just a few minutes ago I'm guessing. These need to last me my whole life. If not I'd be waiting 7 years just to restore all my magic."
I put the pouch back in my pocket and looked out the window opposite me. I could see Natsu and some blonde guy fighting.
"That's Sting. He's basically my brother, although not biologically. He's the Light Dragon Slayer."
"Heh. How dare that flaming idiot just leave me in here, while he goes to fight." I smirked evily. "He knows damn well when I watch a fight I get fired up... So much for saving my magic up."
Without another word I ran out the room, Rogue following after me. I burst outside and surprise kicked Natsu in the gut.
"How dare you leave me in there with a stranger just so you could go fight." I glared. "And right in my field of vision? Looks like I'm gonna need to teach you a lesson about abandoning your friends."
"Please no." He begged, in his knees still in pain from my kick. "Have mercy! At least don't use your magic!"
"Well, as you asked so politely..."
I punched him in the stomach and he went hurling back into the water. I then turned my attention to Sting.
"I hear you're a Dragon Slayer too. Wanna try against me?" I asked, an insane look my eye.
He shakily nodded his head. Immediately I also kicked him into the water.
"WHOSE NEXT?!" I yelled.
"I'll give it a go." I turned to see Erza, already in her battle armour and sword.
"Bring it Scarlet!"
Although the battle lasted a bit longer than the Slayers, I also ended up throwing her into the water too.
"Wow. She's strong." She said, in shock and fear.
Everyone around had a fearful look. I overheard Lucy and Rogue.
"And I thought she was innocent." She sighed.
"I take it this is fear." Rogue stated in a shaky voice.
