Lucy's Pov, 

I turned my head seeing another member of the Tartaros team. Jackal. 

I stepped back as Natsu soon came into the hallway

I stepped back as Natsu soon came into the hallway. He looked at me a tad confused but turned his head to see Jackal. "Your not aloud in this part" Natsu soon snapped as he moved in front of me. "I only got lost mate" Jackal then looked at me and smirked. "Now why does she look like the late Princess Layla?" Jackal soon asked as Natsu growled his hand setting on fire. "Get out of here before I burn you to ash" Natsu threatened his voice colder and deeper than normal. I knew that was E.N.D.

Jackal had an amused look on his face. "See you lot on the battle field" Jackal then chuckled as he turned around and left. The fire on Natsu's hand settling down as he looked at me. "This is why your not aloud to be alone" Natsu reminded me, his face having a serious look. I only nodded, not sure how to reply. "Come on let's see how Erza and Wendy are doing" Natsu offered me his hand as I smiled a little and nodded. I took his hand as we headed into the balcony once again to see Erza had her sword at Kyoka's neck.

Wendy was still in dragon force mode as she was still pretty fast, moving toward Torafuzar punching him around the face, knocking him clear out. "2 POINTS TO FAIRY TAIL" the announcer  got the crowd cheering like crazy as there was soon an explosion near by. "1 point to Grimoire Heart and 1 point to Sabertooth" the announcer soon echoed around as this game was over. Wendy and Erza went toward our teams exit/entrance as everyone got up heading out to meet them.

Everyone but me and Natsu. "Mard Geer can see you can't he?" Natsu asked as I saw him glaring off toward someone. I followed his eyes to see Mard Geer clapping looking right at me. "Y-yes" I answered looking away to the ground. "Why didn't you say so sooner Lucy?" Natsu soon asked walking over placing a hand on my shoulder. I looked up at Natsu. "I-Im scared that the past could repeat itself" I whispered as Natsu then sighed placing his other hand on my cheek. "That won't happen Lucy" Natsu then informed me.

It might of no longer been my birthday but Mard Geer's threat was still there. He wanted the people I care for dead. I cared for all the Fairy Tail members along with Igneel. "The Next Game will be ALL members of the team fighting it out" the announcer soon got the crowd wild up again as Natsu sighed moving his hands. "Stay in here" Natsu ordered as I nodded. He soon left as I then turned my head to see Mard Geer was gone. I started to get worried. I sat down on one of the chairs watching as Fairy Tail was in one corner of the map.

My mind going to what Mard Geer's letter said, him threatening to kill Natsu. My mind going to dark places until the theme in the area turned into a cave. Soon the groups of teams were teleaported to the center of the map. I stood up shocked as I saw Mard Geer standing with them. "Mard Geer" many of the crowd and Sabertooth team whispered shocked. "NATSU GET OUT OF THERE" I soon screamed my eyes watering as Mard Geer started floating the other Tartaros members showing up around Fairy Tail and Sabertooth.

"Alegia" Mard Geer nearly shouted smirking as parts of the cave started turning into a pink tar. Slowly it was trapping the other members as Grimoire Heart was no where to be seen. My heart started to race as I watched the tar trap the people I cared for into some pink stone. My eyes mostly on Natsu...

 My eyes mostly on Natsu

I hurried out the balcony somehow finding my way to the arena entrance. Soon as I got there I saw the tar had turned even the crowds to stone. I looked around shocked as I heard some chuckling. My head turning to see Jackal, Torafuzar and another Tartaros member called Lamy.

I stepped back as Lamy ran toward me smirking. "GATE OF THE MAIDEN" I shouted as a glow came from my hands. Jackal and Torafuzar looked shocked as I aimed my hand toward Lamy. "VIRGO" I then shouted as Virgo one of my trusted spirits came to my aid. I couldn't help but smile and be a little proud that I was able to summon her once again. "I got this one Hime" Virgo ran towards Lamy, kicking her towards the walls. "It's not right, Alegia didn't freeze her like the others" Jackal was watching me.

Virgo ended up moving around the cave along with Lamy as I couldn't see any of my friends. I looked around hoping to find one of them frozen in the pink tar. I knew I could free them somehow. "Then lets finish her" Torafuzar snapped rushing toward me. Water staring to rush into the cave. Within seconds the water was at my knees. "GATE OF THE LION! LEO" I shouted face as Torafuzar was just about to hit me. Soon Loke was in front of me blocking the hit. I looked at him worried as a cut showed on his arm. 

"Loke are you alright?" I asked worried as he shook his head as if he was shaking the pain off. His hand started glowing. "Im fine Lucy, get to safety" Loke replied rushing at Torafuzar moving him backwards like Virgo did with Lamy. Jackal started chuckling like a mad man as I started running, ending up struggling to run as the water was up to my shoulders. I felt my magic getting lower by the second. Two Celestail gates was my limit. I felt like passing out as a wooden board showed up next to me.

I hurried on top of the board as I was laying on it, taking deep breaths. "Brother we must finish this fast" I heard Virgo shout as I couldn't move. "Lucy don't push yourself" I heard Loke shout as I turned my head a little to see Jackal rushing toward me..... 

I-I didn't have anymore magic....
