Frea stepped off the train after Lucy and followed in silence as they headed around the town, Frea hadn't bothered to bring any luggage beside the small bag she had strapped to her back filled with things she would only need in an emergency. They entered a small cramped tavern with hardly anyone in it, Erza took no hesitation in walking up to the counter, slamming her fist onto the bar.

"I demand you tell me where the Guild BloodRuby is hiding!" Erza ordered and the frail old man looked up at her in absolute terror. His mouth opened as if he was about to say something when Frea glanced around the tavern, more people seemed to be slinking out of the shadows, they were circling them.

"Erza..." Gray muttered and Erza nodded when she too noticed the turn in events,

"You looking for BloodRuby sweetheart?" A man with a long scar across his eye walked up to them and smiled down at the now glaring Erza. Frea glanced over at the frail old man behind the bar and noticed he was now holding a black dagger in his hand. The Old man thrust the dagger toward Erza's back but Frea grasped his hand before he could even touch her.

"Bad move." She growled and the Tavern exploded with fighting Wizards, Frea easily pulled the old man from behind the counter and he fell to the floor before running away. Frea turned back to the fight and stepped out of the way of a swing from a mace. She encased her fist with her Energy and punched him, sending the Mage flying.

Dodge...Dodge...Hit...Hit...Energy Bomb...

This is the easiest fight I've ever been in! Frea stood still, most of the Members of BloodRuby were taken down while the rest of them had run away. Erza smiled at them,

"Good Job, all of you." She murmured and Frea sighed, well that didn't last long..... Nobody looked hurt, but almost the entire building had been destroyed. Frea glanced down at her feet where a black Magic Circle had appeared and she fell through, What the hell!? All she could see now was darkness and her mind went black...

No One POV

Lucy glanced over at Frea and her eyes widened when she saw her friend disappear through a Magic Circle. "Frea?!" Lucy gasped and everyone went to where their friend had disappeared,

"What's going on?" Gray muttered.

"Where's Frea?" Natsu asked and they all looked up as a skull that seemed to be made of shadow appeared in the air before them.

"Your Demon Friend has failed her original mission, I have taken her so she may serve another purpose." A calm Female voice floated from the skull and Erza stepped forward.

"Who are you? Where have you taken Frea?" She growled,

"My name may be unknown to you Ms. Erza Scarlet, I am the Key Maker; Kasumi. I have taken your friend to my home, for her repurposing." The Skull answered. Everyone narrowed their eyes, Kasumi the Key Maker...?

"What do you mean Repurposing?!" Natsu demanded.

"Ahh... Salamander. What I intend to do with the Shade Demon Frea is none of your concern, perhaps if I am feeling generous you may have her body back once I am done." Kasumi replied. Lucy glared, body back? That means she's going to kill Frea! The Skull began to disappear and Natsu looked furious,

"Come on! We have to go find Frea!" Natsu yelled as he started to run off. Erza lunged forward and grabbed him before he could leave.

"Hold on Natsu, you don't even know where you're going! We need to think about this.." Erza told him and he glared.

"Erza, do you know who this Kasumi person is?" Gray asked and Erza shook her head,

"No I am afraid I don't... Perhaps the Master would know.." Erza murmured.

"Come on Erza! We don't have time to go all the way back to the Guild, didn't you hear her? She's gonna kill Frea if we don't hurry!" Natsu snarled and Erza nodded,

"I know, but we can give him a call." Erza explained as she turned away and rummaged behind the bar where she pulled out a large Crystal Ball Lacrima. Erza placed it on the table and they all watched silently as she adjusted it and Mirajane appeared on its surface.

"Oh, hello Erza, is there something wrong?" Mirajane asked and Erza gave her a serious look.

"Mira, could I please speak to the Master?" Erza asked and Mira nodded,

"Sure, just let me get him..." Mira disappeared from the surface and Master Makarov came into view.

"Erza? What is the matter?" He asked and Erza sighed.

"Do you know who the Key Maker Kasumi is?" Erza asked and Makarov looked surprised before going into deep thought.

"Yes... Kasumi is a lone Dark Wizard that used to be part of the Dark Guild Grimoire Heart. She uses her own custom branch of Maker Magic, Key Make. She can make her own custom Celestial Keys, and she is a force to be reckoned with. May I ask why the sudden interest?" Master Makarov asked them. They had all gone silent when Erza snapped out of it.

"Do you know where Kasumi might be hiding?" Erza asked and Master Makarov nodded.

"I have an idea, why are you asking? Did something happen?" Master Makarov asked again.

"Kasumi has taken Frea captive, we think she plans to kill her, so we are going after her." Erza explained, Master Makarov's eyes widened.

"This is very bad... I think Kasumi is planning on taking Shadow's and Winter's souls from Frea's body and turning them into Celestial Keys, if that happens we are all in trouble. You must find her before that happens, I have heard tale that Kasumi is taking refuge in the ruins of an old Castle somewhere in the Forest of Larsied (Lar-See-Ed)." Master Makarov explained hastily and Erza nodded.

"Ok, we'll do our best." Erza promised and the Lacrima stopped glowing. She turned away and face the remainder of her group. "You heard the Master, we have to save Frea as fast as we can!" Erza said and they all nodded. Erza sprinted from the building and they all ran after her.

I hope we get there in time...
