In there was a land that was at war. The war was a civil war of people trying to kill off all wizards. The people of the land feared and hated anyone that was a wizard. The hated between the two sides went on for the past 10 years and now the person in charge of the hateful side was now the leader of the country.

His name was Crawford and he was having a meeting to find a way to get rid of all wizards of the land. He worked with Zeref and his groups Tartaros and the Spriggan 12.

They were all having a meeting and one of the members of the Tartaros group, Franmalth spoke.

"How are we going to get rid of these annoying wizards? Are we going to sell them into slavery? Are we going to rob them of their goods?"

Crawford chuckled.

"No. Those wizards are already being hunted and chased after her. I want to take it to the next level. I want to put an end to them either instantly or torture them to the point they die."

Zeref looked at the map.

"So which places are we going to attack first?"

Crawford nodded then pointed at a certain location.

"I want the Magnolia City to be destroyed. It's a land that takes Wizards and has orphanages for wizards to go into."

They all nodded then another member of the Tartaros group, Seilah spoke.

"Shall we arrest them in the city or shall we kill them where they stand?"

"You may do both."

Zeref looked at everyone then spoke.

"We will begin to kill and enslave the wizards right now. Tartaros group, I want you to kill everyone you see. Spriggan, I want you to arrest and torture whoever you see."

Ajeel of the Spriggan group smiled.

"Are we taking them to certain places?"

"Yes. You would put these wizards into termination and forced labor. Every man, woman and child if they are too old or too young kill them as soon as they arrive."

They all nodded in understanding what that meant.

In Magnolia City

There was a 13 year old girl that had scarlet hair that hung to her lower back. She had brown eyes and two strands of scarlet hair that framed her face. She wore a white long sleeve blouse and a red tie. She wore a long dark blue skirt and brown boots. Her name was Erza but she didn't have a last name.

Erza was an orphan and just like any other orphan she longed for a family that loved her. She wanted to have siblings to play with, a father to play with and a mother to dance with. However, the more she longed for that dream, the sadder she became.

Erza was well aware that not many children were adopted, mainly because Magnolia City was known for having the most wizards of the land. Along with that anyone who lived outside of the city hated wizard and would chase them off if they tried to make a new living.

Erza wished that the world was different but she knew it was foolish to think of such a thing.

She soon heard screaming from afar and looked behind her.

To her absolute horror she saw a large dark smoke cloud that looked like there was a major fire in the city.

Without thinking Erza ran in the direction the fire was coming from only to drop to her knees in distraught when she saw that it was the orphanage she lived in on fire.

'No….!'

Tears poured down her face then Erza heard a yell not too far from her.

"I see a wizard child! Get her!"

Erza got to her feet and made a run for it. She didn't dare run in the open, she made sure to run into alley ways to buy time to hide and get away from the people that were chasing after her.

When she found a small underground opening she jumped right in and hid inside the subway. She went on running and soon found others that were hiding from the attackers.

'What's going on? Why are they doing this to us?'

Erza went on running. True she was hiding from the people attacking their city but it was only going to be for a matter time before these wizard hunters came to the underground passage ways.

She soon passed a gate and her eyes widen in horror when she saw the gate behind her close. She looked behind her to hear screaming from the other side of the gate.

The Wizard hunters had opened the passage ways for the water to rush in. So whoever was on the other side f the gate were trapped and were going to drown.

Erza quickly ran out of there and found the train station. To her surprise the people there were being boarded and soon a tall man in a black suit came to her.

"Child, where are your parents?"

She looked away with sadness then the man led her to another cart of the train.

"Get in."

Erza got into the train cart and the man closed the door.

Not long after all the doors were closed, the train took off to another place.

For three days Erza was locked in the train cart with other children. They didn't have any food or water. As they were locked in the train cart they soon felt the train slow down to a stop.

When the doors opened the Wizard Hunters were yelling, telling the prisoners to get out of the train.

Erza, along with the wizards that were with her were formed into a large line while the Wizard Hunters were pulling wizards from the line randomly. It was nighttime and Erza couldn't see that well but she was able to tell what was going on, mostly by the yelling around her. She was among those that were left in the line while those who were chosen were taken away.

Erza's group was then taken through a process of becoming a slave.
