While Natsu, Lucy, Wendy, Happy and Charle were getting accustomed to their new surroundings, Makarov and his team were scrambling on finding a cure and fast.
According to Lily's undercover stealth work, Lisanna was furious that they escaped. She sent Grey, Juvia and Erza to search for them and to bring them back for their punishment.
No one ever wondered where the guild master was, not even Lisanna noticed that he was missing. She was so absorbed into her own little plan of revenge.
She was leaning over the bar, her sister mindlessly wiping down the counter. Lisanna grew irritated and slapped her.
"Mira! You are doing a sloppy job keeping this bar clean! Work harder!" She shouted.
Lisanna was very abusive towards the guild members, especially to her sister. She was bitter that Mira always talked about how Lucy and Natsu would make a cute couple. Lisanna was angry; Mira should have been on her side! She held bitterness over everyone. She hated how people would always say how wonderful Lucy was and how she was so pretty and strong. She hated how people would comment how much of a great team Lucy and Natsu were. She was annoyed by how Natsu would always follow her around like a lovesick puppy. It should have been her. People should have been praising her, encouraging her to be with him, not some blond bimbo.
As she got off her stool, she was suddenly hit with a migraine; she keeled over. No one bothered to come to her aid and that irritated her. One of the drawbacks of her mind-control potion; they won't move unless she tells them too. How annoying, they couldn't even dote on her even when under her control. She irritably gathered herself and stormed out.
She decided to go home and rest for the day. Once she was gone, the guild seemed to go back to normal. They behaved as usual; unfortunately they didn't remember a single thing. Cana sat with Macao and Wakaba drinking, Elman was shouting "Man" every so often and Bickslow was playing with his babies.
Mira absentmindedly rubbed her cheek, wonder how she got that red bruise.
Lily noticed this and immediately flew to tell the others. This was intriguing indeed.
Once he reached their hideout, Makarov, Polyusica and Crux found this news very intriguing.
Crux immediately researched the possibilities and quickly came up with something.
"It seems that the potion only works on its victims when the perpetrator is in close proximity of them, once far enough, the victim reverts back to normal. They behave as usual but subconsciously are still following orders, without realizing it. When the caster is close by though, they revert back to being mindless drones" Crux explained.
"So basically, Erza, Gray and Juvia are out there looking for Natsu and Lucy and don't know what for" Gajeel pondered
"They probably think that they are just retrieving them only to bring them back home" Laxus went on.
"Crux, I need you to look into a cure and fast! We can't let Erza near them, especially in Lucy's condition" Makarov stressed.
"I need to head over to the Magic Council, Laxus, I need you with me since we can use your lighting to transport us there. The rest of you STAY HERE! Once we are gone, put up the protection spell, Laxus's lightning will surely draw attention and you need you be kept out of sight" Makarov and Laxus transported away.
Gajeel turned around and snarled at the medicine woman to work fast, she just glared at him and reminded him that he was in no position to give order.
As Lisanna was walking home, she noticed a strange flash in the sky, then it dawned on her that the other dragon slayers and Makarov haven't been at the guild since they got back from the games. What she saw was Laxus's thunder! She realized that they weren't there the day she used the potion on the guild members. They probably knew what she did and kept their distance.
She clenched her fists "No one is going to get in my way!"
She immediately hurried back to the guild to form a search party for the other missing members. They most likely are aware of what she has done and they need to be dealt with.
