No-one's POV

It was a normal early morning in the Fairy Tail guild.

Mirajane stood behind the bar handing Cana her sixth barrel of alcohol, and Gajeel grunted at Levy as she handed him another plate filled with iron scraps before sitting beside him with her head stuck in a book. The Thunder God Tribe sat at their usual table, talking quietly between themselves as Laxus listened to his sound pod.

As Mirajane was drying a glass, she looked up at the guild entrance, wondering where Fairy Tails residential Celestial Mage was. It was normal for her not to see the rest of Team Natsu till the early afternoon, however the blonde had usually arrived by now, and her missing presence caused Mira to become both curious and suspicious as to what had caused her absence.

Cana looked up at Mira and shuddered, taking a large gulp from her barrel; the card mage recognised Mira's matchmaker face, and could tell she was imagining the babies of some poor Fairy Tail pair who probably wasn't even dating.

'Pink haired brown eyed babies!' Mira squealed quietly, ignoring Cana's groan as she pictured the bundle of adorableness.

Mira's imaginings however where interrupted as the guild doors slammed open, a large crack making its way down the centre of one of the doors upon impact with the wall. All conversation, apart from that of the Thunder God Tribe, ceased as the guild members felt the malevolent aura that spread across the guild like a fog.

'That's a man!' Elfman muttered in regard to the power behind the slam, but was quickly silenced by Macao and Wakaba as they stared at the woman stalking across the guild towards the bar.

Mira stared at Lucy with worry as the blonde sat herself down at a bar stool and rested her head against the cool mahogany.

'Lucy, are you alri-'

'Please Mira. Drink, strong, now.' Lucy bit out, her words somehow making it past her lividly clenched teeth as she looked up at Mira pleadingly, before her anger over shadowed the look.

Mira quickly poured her a glass of whiskey, and watched in astonishment as Lucy downed it in one and slammed the glass on the bar, gesturing for a refill as she stood to face the guild.

Lucy's eyes scanned the room, searching for someone like a heat seeking missile.

For a tense moment, her gaze rested on the Thunder God Tribe (who were still talking amongst themselves, not caring about the blonde at all) and everyone drew in a sharp breathe, before an audible sigh of relief was heard as her eyes moved on.

Everyone loved Lucy, she was kind, forgiving and beautiful, and all of the members of Fairy Tail considered her to be a younger sister or daughter, however they all also knew that if she was riled, she became a thou8sand times scarier than Titania herself when someone harmed her strawberry cake.

Lucy frowned before sitting at the bar once again, drinking the refilled glass and filling it herself with the bottle Mira had left her. The Demon takeover mage knew that Lucy needed the detachment the alcohol offered her, but she watched worriedly from where she stood at the bar opposite Cana, who shrugged at her and began to drink her seventh barrel. She knew Lucy would pop soon, and they would all know what was going on, so she drank away at her alcohol and waited.

Gradually, the guild members began to recover from the shocked state at Lucy's above average level of anger, and started to whisper between themselves, trying to figure out the catalyst to her behaviour. Everyone had the same thoughts, and knew of only one or two wizards that could make her so angry that her murderous aura still hung in the air.

Lucy stared down at the amber liquid, swirling it in the crystal cut glass, before glaring at it and swallowing it.

'What's got your lace undies in a twist bunny girl? Gihi!' It had became dead silent once again as Gajeel sat himself down in the seat next to Lucy, and everyone froze as they heard what he said to her, except the Thunder God Tribe who looked on in amusement and laughed lightly before continuing their prior conversation.

Slowly, Lucy lowered her glass to the bar, and, not even looking at the iron dragon slayer, she punched him in the face with enough force to send him flying across the guild towards Laxus. Somehow Laxus managed to tear his concentration away from the song playing on his sound pod and sent his own lightning infused fist into Gajeel, slamming him to the ground unconscious as sparks flew around his immobile body.

Lucy cracked her knuckles, the sound seeming to echo in the silent guild hall, before she grabbed the bottle of whiskey and took a swig.

'Hey Luce!' Everyone groaned as the oblivious pink haired fire dragon slayer ran into the guild with Gray following close behind and his shirt flying off into the welcoming arms of Juvia who unsurprisingly appeared not far behind Gray.

Mira looked on as Lucy's dark aura seemed to pulse before she slowly turned to face the two mages with a deathly glare.

Gray stopped in his tracks and Mira could see the blood drain from his face as he realised how angry Lucy was, however Natsu continued on, still oblivious to Lucy's fury.

'We just came from your house, but you weren't there. We even checked the bathroom for you! We wanna go on a job with you! Come on, let's go!' Lucy stared at Natsu before whispering beneath her breath.

'What?' Suddenly Happy appeared and was trying to drag Natsu away from their fuming partner, but failed as Natsu swatted at him. Happy quickly backed off as he saw Lucy's ire reach a level no one had ever seen before, and he whimpered.

'Lusshhhyyy!' But she ignored him as Natsu started talking again.

'Yeah, sorry about last night, we figured we could help pay it off-' Lucy's foot lashed out, slamming into Natsu's jaw and sending him flying backwards out of the wide open guild doors, before immediately advancing on a terrified Gray and punching him in the stomach, much to the outrage of a certain water mage who made a move to defend her Gray-sama, but was frozen under Lucy's deathly gaze.

Evan Laxus looked on in surprise as both Gray and Natsu remained unconscious on the ground from the blondes punches.

Lucy turned back to the bar and drained the last of the whiskey before throwing the bottle at Natsu's prone form. Her aim was true, as it smashed against his head and she smiled darkly as she heard a groan from him.

The guild stared on in pure amazement, now in complete silence, as she walked over to the Thunder God Tribe and grabbed Freed by the collar of his red velvet coat, and dragged him out of the guild, ignoring his spluttering and shouting.

It took at least five minutes for everyone to get over their surprise, which was suddenly broken by Elfman.

'That's a MAN!' He shouted, pumping his fist in the air. He broke everyone out of the various states of silence, and they watched as the remaining members of the Thunder God Tribe ran out after their kidnapped member, even Laxus followed at a high speed walk.

Not long after they had left, Gray groaned and opened his eyes, before wishing he'd stayed knocked out. Before him stood Mirajane in her Satan Soul form, glaring at him in pure unadulterated rage, the rest of the guild gathering behind her stared on solemnly, feeling no sympathy for the ice make mage who clearly had a hand in Lucy's foul mood.

'What. Did. You. Do. To. Lucy?!' Mira whispered, her voice carrying through the air and her anger permeating into Master Makarovs office, who sighed and jumped down from his desk, glad to escape the mountain of paperwork to go and see what had angered Mira enough to make her go to such lengths as a transformation.
