Third Person P.O.V.
"What?" Irene sits down on the couch in the seating area, slowly. Larcade stares at the ill Erza that lay next to Gray and Lucy. "A mortal wished for my daughter to be sick form the queen of fairies?"

"Afraid so, Eileen." Zeref says coldly. Ajeel sighs and shakes his head while Larcade looks very, very sad. He has some feelings for the scarlet haired beauty while Ajeel and her are best friends.

"But who would do that?" Natsu stares at Erza in worry, "I-I mean, everyone was out in battle today. Except for the queen..." His voice trailed off. He stares at Zeref, "do you think Makarov did this?"

"Makarov may not seem like it but he's not evil." Dimaria leans against the pillar, "Excuse me for my words, your highness, but he feels bad too easily. I feel like someday, that'll get him killed. Of course, that's our goal."

Those words made Natsu, Lucy, and Gray stare at Dimaria uneasily. Juvia raises an eyebrow as they act like they didn't do anything. "What's going on?" She whispers suspiciously.

"Indeed," Invel nods, "besides, the affects aren't bad at all. She'll be awake and good as new in a couple of hours. That is unless the person who wished for her to be ill wished for her to stay like this."

Acnologia stands up and walks to his wife, "I'm very worried for her too, Eileen, but right now we must focus on why we are here." Irene looks up at him with expressionless eyes, "the battle plan."

Ultear's P.O.V.
I grab the bars of the cell I'm in and shake it. The place begins to shake but it's no use. I'm trapped because I was so foolish! "What have I done? Now, not only will I never get to see my friends again, Erza is sick. I'm a horrible friend...am I even still her friend?"

"Of course you are." Titania walks into the dimension I am in. Titania sent me to the dimension of spirits, also known as her food. That's right. Fairies are not all butterflies and rainbows, they're evil and cruel. Of course, not every fairy is like this.

"What do you want?" I hiss at her as she rolls her eyes. She walks to me and smirks as she flies around my cell, "go away!" I begin crying. Why am I crying? I'm a terrible person.

"This is my dimension, mortal, I can do whatever I want." She sticks out her tongue. I stiffen and do a stance, "relax, it's not like your spells will have any effect on me. I just wanted to ask if you knew who Mavis Vermilion is?"

I lower my hands and stare at her in wonder, "of course I do. She's the first queen of Fiore, the first master of Fairy Tail, and the first love of Zeref Dragneel or whatever."

"BINGO!" She turns around to show me her tail. Wait. TAIL!? "Mavis Vermilion is the first person to ever hypothesis about how Fairies have tails. She never knew that we're as big as humans, we eat human's souls, or that we have magic."

"You have got to be kidding me." My eye twitches as she swings her skin colored tail in my face, "fairies have tails? Oh. My. God." I hide my face in embarrassment. Like, why tails? It's so weird!

"Also," she turns around and looks at me. I look up at her ocean blue eyes. In fact, you can see the reflection of the ocean in her eyes. "We've met. We haven't talked tho. She was walking with the black Mage, Zeref, when they stopped...and kissed!"

"WHY ARE YOU TELLING ME THIS!?" I exclaim, blushing as red as a ripe tomato. What is wrong with this woman? Is she even a woman? She acts more like a little girl! Why would I want to know about someone's personal life!?

"Just because." She shrugs. "Let's see." She leans into my face, a curious frown on her face. She looks down at her hand, "looks like it's working." She smiles devilishly at her hand. I look up and see a picture of Jellal blushing.

"W-what are you doing?" Great God. I just remembered what I did to Prince Jellal! AM I REALLY THIS STUPID!? It's not like I can be with him, queen Irene will kill me. Literally. Oh, and I'll lose my job!

"Love spells are very complicated, only rare creatures can cast them. Like me! But you see, in order for the spell to work, I must bind your hearts together. Meaning, the prince doesn't really 'love' you, you just love him and he has the same feelings since you're now combined."

"Oh, thank God!" I sigh and slide down the bar with my hand over my heart. Wait. Can you break the spell? I stand up, "can you break the spell?" She nods honestly. "Really? How?"

"He must see the first person he ever loved. Apparently, he never loved anyone except for his dead mother and father. I still don't know who his first love is." She shrugs.

"Y-you mean... You mean he never loved Erza?" My eyes widen. Great, another mistake! WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME!?

"Who's Erza? Oh, the girl you wished to be sick?" She asks as I nod quickly, "no. She's in love with this guy named Larcade Dragneel, he's Zeref's youngest son. Did you know that Zeref and Mavis had a son together? His name is August."

"How do you know these things?" I roll my eyes as she laughs uncontrollably. "W-what?" I blush in embarrassment. She falls on the ground, laughing and crying. What did I say to make her laugh so much?

She stands up and wipes the tears out of her eyes. She stares at me and begins laughing again. She stops and does a little smirk. She places her hand on her hip and sashays to me, "I know EVERYTHING, hun."

Everything....? I begin to cry. There's nothing to do...no one will come and get me. She knows EVERYTHING. Heavy, hot tears run down my cheeks.

Jellal's P.O.V.
I sigh as my grandfather lectures my friend and I about brining Mavis back. "Why would you do such a thing? Do you understand how dangerous it is?" Mavis tries to calm him down but he doesn't listen. "I am past the point of anger right now! Can one of you explain to me why! Why you woke her!?"

"King Makarov, it's fine! It's not a big deal!" Mavis exclaims as he apologizes about a thousand times. "I-I'm not joking! It's fine, I swear!" Suddenly, I begin crying. Heavy, hot tears run down my cheeks.

Wendy glares at me in confusion. I don't know what's gotten into me. I cannot control my body what soever. Makarov stares at me, his expression softens, "Jellal, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you cry."

Sting and Rogue smirk, Laxus rolls his eyes, Gajeel chuckles, and Wendy just stares at me in utter shock. I wipe my tears and look up at him, "I'm sorry, sire, I just don't know what's gotten into me. I can't control my body anymore."

"I'm sorry," Makarov sits down as Mavis frowns at the others. They stand stiff as she studies me, "we can worry about that later. Now can someone tell me, why you would wake her from her sleep?!"

Laxus sighs and says stiffly and coldly, "Dragnof is planning on using the assistance of The Alvarez Empire. That includes the Spriggan 12, Acnologia, and..." His voice trailed off.

Makarov's eyes widen, "The Spriggan King...Zeref..."
