Levy P.O.V

I ran up the stairs two at a time as I followed Lily, Gajeel right on my tail. The echoing laughter from the hagraven was left in the cell below as we burst into the main hall. Very few members had made it in, so early in the morning but they were doing their best to fight off what could only be called a small army. More than two dozen demons were fighting the hand full of were-felines, jaguars, tigers and cheetahs were locked in the brawl. Lily growled and shifted himself, taking the form of a large panther before dashing into the frey. I pulled the gun from the waistband of my shorts and headed for the second floor, hoping to get a good shooting spot.

Gajeel followed me and almost ran into me as I stopped. " Gajeel, you can be more help down there." He frowned. " If what that hag said was true, I can't take my eyes off you." I tried to ignore the heat in my face and smirked slightly. " Im a big girl Gajeel," I ignored his amused snort," I can take care of myself. I will call master for back up and come back out. Now go." He frowned again before turning for the stairs, shedding his clothes quickly before shifting.

I run for the room at the top of the stairs,  Shagotts office, knowing there was a communication lacrima inside. I opened the door and slipped inside, quickly looking around before going to the large crystal. It flashed softly for a few moments before an image appeared. " Good morning Levy!" Mira said with a smile. " Sorry Mira, no time. Ivan has struck here at Extalia and we don't have the man power." She frowned and nodded. " Help is on- behind you!" I dove away from the lacrima as she shrieked and it exploded in the next instant.

I rolled to my feet and turned, gun raised, to see a black scaley tail disappearing into the shadows. Shadow stalker, shit. I mentally cursed, turning in a slow circle as I watched the office. Shadow stalkers were lizard men, their lizard hides black and their claws and teeth were deadly. As their name implies, they move in the shadows and were more useful at night, where everything was shadowed.

I slowly backed towards the window where there was nothing but light, but then I paused. If there was something in the street and it saw me, it would come through the window. Next best option was to head back into the main hall. I took a quick look around before making a mad dash for the open door. Nearly there! Just as my luck goes though, before I made it to the door a large scaley hide crashed into my side.

Gajeel P.O.V

Damn woman ordering me around. I thought to myself as I tore into another demon. It was too chaotic to really pay attention to what kind. I kept looking up to the room where Shrimp had disappeared but she hadn't come back, and a knot was twisting in my stomach but I ignored it.

She could take care of herself.

I yelped as a large gray skinned demon sunk it's teeth into my side, before I turned and gripped it's neck. I flung it to the side, sending it crashing into its own allies. More of the cats were showing up but we weren't putting much of a dent into them. I growled in frustration as what seemed to be more came in, and Shrimp still hadn't showed up.

Then, her scent drifted into my nose, that smell of ink and sunlight. I looked up, frowning slightly when I didn't see her. Her scent seemed to move along the edge of the room but I still wasn't able to see her. Then I saw her, and I felt my heart stop.  A Shadow Stalker appeared in the light of the open doors, Levys limp bruised body under its arm. I roared in anger as I tried to charge through the mass of demons, but there were too many. Then they were gone.

My blood was boiling and all I saw was red as I tore through any demon dumb enough to get in my way.

More continued to pour in through the doors before we got a break. A blast of fire erupted through the doors, followed by the Salamander. His horns protruded from his head and his forearms were covered in red scales and his hands were clawed. The Titania was behind him, a large sword in her hands as she shouted a battle cry, followed by a small army of our own from Fairy Tail. None of that mattered to me. The only thing that did, was that Levy was gone.

{Shrimpnapping! I had to XD}
