Hey guys! Its been way too long since ive updated and im really sorry and I know its just all excuses, but its all I got, which I'm not proud of. I've been way too busy this marching season, but now that winterguard has started ill have more time...Hopefully... I just wanna tell you guys how much I love your reviews they point out sooo much that I never would have noticed. Like it was pointed out to me that this is not a m rated fic, there is a reason to this, in the first draft of the first chapter I had a giant lemon in there but I decided to take it out because of various reasons. I might either change the rating or after I finish the fic ill post the original first chapter. Opinions, please? Alright lets get on with the show!

Disclaimer; okay, I think ive made this very clear but for the ones who need to hear it again, I dont own Fairy Tail. It belongs to Mashima Hiro, and I am not Mashima Hiro-san, therefore it does not belong to me. BUT my OC's and my plot do belong to me so please dont be a douche.

Claiming Stolen Property

Ryuu Dragneel was not a happy camper. They had been in that darned room for about 3 or 4 hours now. There was nothing to do, and come on lets be real shall we? They were six years old, and six year olds got bored, fast. It hardly mattered yet that they were stuck in the enemy's territory, because they hadn't come in contact with another person since they got there.

"I'm bored!" Kim whined rather loudly

"I know, so am I. Why haven't they come for us yet, they're mages! They have to know we're awake!" he whined back

Their prayers were answered, the door opened only to reveal Yuki and two heavily muscled men behind here. The hair on the back of Ryuu's neck stood straight at the sight of her. He rushed in front of Kim and the Exceeds rushed in front of him.

"What do you want?" He snarled at her

"Geez, you are so much like your father, not that that's a terrible quality. Im quite fond of your father, you know. He's such a sweet little thing to torture. He has the cutest scream and oh I could go on all day! But I won't. Oh honey, you look just terrified, your a smart kid." She drawled

Ryuu growled in response.

"Oh and that poor little girl, she looks petrified. Your such a good big brother, trying to protect her and all, but I need to borrow her for a bit." She smiled at Kim, "Boys, could you be a dear and got get that sweet little thing for me?"

"Yes, Master." They replied, walking towards them.

Ryuu's low growl increased in volume, "Don't you dare touch my sister!"

They kept coming closer, not stopping for anything. They smelled weird to him, like bad magic. Though he never would admit it, he was afraid. He wasn't sure if he could protect his sister, and he didn't want to think of what would happen if he couldn't.

"Roar of the Star Dragon!" He yowled as the let the white hot fire explode from his mouth.

A magic circle appeared in front of them and the magic disappeared. They got closer.

"Wing Slash of the Star Dragon!", again the circle lit up and the magic evaporated, "Fist of the Star Dragon!". Again it was gone.

They were right in front of them.

"Stay away from my sister!" he threw himself at them

They batted him aside like a rag doll, slamming the boy into a wall. Stars exploded behind Ryuu's eyes as Kim let out a bloodcurdling scream. He tried to move faster, to get up, but he staggered and kept falling to his knees.

"NO, STOP! LEAVE MY SISTER ALONE!" Ryuu screeched

Kim's cries were silenced as the door slammed shut.

"No, please, not my sister." He whimpered, tears running down his face

Then the brave little Ryuu Dragneel began to cry.

Natsu was frustrated. He lost their scent a few miles back and he was positive that if he didn't pick up the scent soon that Lucy was going to break in to pieces.

Then she felt it, it was unexplainable. Mothers are said to have a special connection with their children, when something bad happens to their children the mother knows, she can feel it. It was one of those feelings Lucy had now, something was wrong her little ones.

"Natsu!" Lucy whispered urgently

"Whats wrong?" he answered, panicked by her serious tone

"Something's wrong with them, my babies are in trouble." She fretted

"Lucy, you don't know that for sure. They're probably fine, I doubt anything bad happened to them." Natsu lied soothingly

In contrast to his words he was worried himself. He wasn't positive anymore that the white haired bitch was harmless to the twins. Natsu himself had a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach. While he could sooth his mate, he wasn't quite sure he could sooth himself and that made him all the more nervous.

"Promise?" She whimpered

"Yes." But he had taken too long to answer

888

Kim was absolutely terrified. When she had been taken away from her brother, she saw he had been bloodied and it scared her. She wanted to protect him, but she didn't have her keys, and without them she was just normal Kim, no magic included. She wasn't sure where they had taken her, it looked like a big bird cage. With a perch and everything. The evil witch locked her in here, and even smiled when she lifted the cage high above the tavern. Lucky for Kim she wasn't afraid of heights, but on the downside she had yet to attain any food, and she was quite hungry. The last time she had eaten food was at home yesterday with Ryuu and Mommy and Daddy.

Mommy and Daddy... She really missed them. Kim hoped they were looking for her, but it had been hours and she had heard stories of Daddy going to help people, it didn't usually take very long. But, no matter what, their parents would rescue them, right?

888

"What do you think your doing, going all by yourselves. We would have come to help you!" Erza yelled angrily at the young parents before her.

The whole Fairy Tail crew stood tall before Lucy and Natsu. Lucy broken into tears for the billionth time that day and Natsu just puffed up with pride.

"Flame-brain I cant believe you'd do something this stupid. Aren't we your nakama? Aren't we your family? If your family is in trouble, so is ours! This was never just your problem. The second that bitch took you its been all of our problem, this stupid issue has been going on for years. I think everyone can agree that its time we got this witch out of our lives." Gray yelled

Natsu didn't even bother making a word about the flame brain remark. He just looked at all of them for a while. Finally he spoke.

"Arigatou, minna**"

At Gray's speech Lucy finally ran out if tears. (to Natsu and everyone's relief) She even smiled at all of them.

A familiar voice spoke up, " Don't worry, Lu-chan. We'll find them, I promise." Levy Redfox said, wrestling with a squirming toddler.

"Ki! Ki!" Kei yelled trying to get away from his mother

Lucy looked with wide eyes at the child.

"Is he trying to say-" she started

"Kim? Yea, most baby's first word are Momma or Dada, but no my child has been screaming for Kim for hours." Levy laughed

Natsu was the first one to groan, Gajeel being the second.

"Keep your son away from my daughter, metal head." Natsu grumbled, thoroughly irritated

"Don't have to tell me twice, fire breath." Gajeel shot back

Both then started bickering, which then turned in to a screaming match, which then turned into a full fledged fight with magic and all. But that was separated quickly by Erza, who forcefully reminded them that they in fact had better things to be doing.

"Okay,now we have three dragonslayers. Natsu said he lost the twins' scent but he may have missed something. Natsu, I want you to take Gajeel and Wendy, and show them where you've gone so far. Gajeel and Wendy I want both of you to try your hardest to pick up anything that you think Natsu may have missed. Even the smallest clue is fine. Mira, Elf, and Lisanna go with Lucy and use your beast soul magic to see if you can pick up anything. Lucy I want you to use the zodiac and see if they can find anything. Levy I want to tag along with Gajeel and the dragon slayers, and be their brains. Freid (A/n is it Fried or Freid or Freed?), Ever, Bixlow, and Laxus I want you to go anywhere the rest of us haven't gone and look for clues. Everyone else do the same. Any children are to stay with their parents and not leave them for anything." Erza looked them all in the eyes, "Failure is not an option today."

"Hey guys-"

"Not now Natsu." Erza scolded

"No its importan-"

"Natsu, we need to get going!"

"But I just remembered tha-"

"Natsu it can wait!"

"Damn it crazy woman! Listen to me! I know where they are, I remember where her guild is!" Natsu yelled at Erza

Everyone stared at him, had it been different circumstances Erza would have probably skinned him alive and skewered him for talking to her like that, but considering the stakes she let it slide.

"Okay, scratch that plan. We all will go as one giant group and show them why you don't mess with Fairy Tail." Erza yowled in chorus with the rest of them.

Suddenly a voice spoke up, "Erza, may I join in?" That voice was none other than Jellal Fernandes.

Erza went through fifty shades of red as he walked next to her, ending with a pale rosy tint to her cheeks.

"J-J-Jellal? W-w-what a-are y-y-y-you?" She paused to gather her thoughts, " What are you doing here?" She finally sputtered out

"I figured that my presence could be useful to you, Erza, and I would do anything to help you" He said quietly

She smiled at him, " Your help will always be useful to me Jellal."

"Yosh! Ikimasho, minna!"* Natsu yelled as they pushed forward.

Kim was in a terrible situation. She was taken down from the birdcage to another room, and it made her question why she was put up in that horrible metal contraption in the first place. She wasn't put back in the same room as her brother, so she was all alone in the pitch black dark. The only interaction she'd had was when they gave her a few crackers. She didn't see an eight course meal in her near future.

A single tear fell down her cheek and she hastily wiped it away. Ryuu was always the strong one of the twins. Kim was by no means a weak child, but Ryuu was the one who could fall and never cry or could stay strong even when bad things happened. She was always the first one to cry or complain or whine, and she hated that. Kim wanted to be the strong child sometimes. She wanted to be the one that saved the day, the one that stayed strong.

"What's wrong, my dear little one?" Kim heard

She looked around puzzled. Where did that come from? she thought shakily. That sounded so much like Aquamarine.

"Dear little one?" Aquamarine said gently

"Aqua?" Kim spoke aloud

"Yes, I am here. Do not be afraid."

"How?" She reached tentatively with her mind to the familiar presence

"Our bond goes deeper than a key, Mini-Queen." Ruby cut in, her presence filling Kim's mind

"What do you mean? I don't understand." Kim asked, frustrated that they insisted on being vague

"It;s quite easy, Kimmy, we aren't from the same world your mother's key's are from. We are from another, one that was created when you were born. Because your being itself is the spirit ruler over our world we have a direct connection to you, different that the contractual relationship Lucy-san has with her spirit keys. You do not require the keys to connect with our magic." Granny Topaz explained to Kim (A/n Okay so if you dont understand, this basically means that kim doesnt use the kind of spirits Lucy does, Kim has her own celestial spirit world and spirits that go in it. That is her magic, which is why her name means "Empress of the Stars" but no this does not mean she is a spirit)

She thought about this, "So I don't need my keys to use my magic and summon all of you?" She asked them

"No, you never did." They all smiled

"Okay then, I need a plan. Ryuu, I'm going to save you this time."

Ryuu was absolutely positive he had a concussion. He was still seeing stars and blood was crusted in the blonde portion of his hair, making it all look red. While he knew he had to do something about it, he was sluggish and sleepy. He knew better than to fall asleep though, he was sure that if he did he wouldn't be waking up anytime soon.

Light crept into the room as the door opened and Yuki walked in. She looked down at him coldly and prodded him with her foot. Ryuu let out a low whimper and she jumped.

"So your still alive?" She asked him, like she didn't care either way

"Where...Where is my sister?" He slurred quietly

The cold hearted mage laughed at him.

"Your still thinking about her? Honey, your almost dead. I was thinking of coming here to torture you, but I think that I might be capable of showing some mercy in the face of such a brave little solider." She whispered kneeling down next to him, "Leina, come here. My brave solider needs help." She called to the door

A woman came in, looking colder than even Yuki herself.

"This is the son of the doll, Master. Are you sure you want me to heal him?" She asked staring down at him like he was a bug

"Are you questioning me?" Yuki snarled at the other woman

She shook her head fiercely and got to work. Ryuu felt his head clear slowly and the sluggishness faded from his limbs. He fell into black waters and awoke with Yuki stroking his hair. He growled as he slowly got up, shaking the sleep from his body.

"Get away from me, witch." he snarled

"I never wanted children, but I think I like you. I might just have to keep you. Do want to become my baby, sweetheart?" She drawled warmly smiling the entire time

Ryuu got a terrible feeling in his stomach, he knew what was coming.

"Please.. dont do that." He cried

"Too late." she chimed

A magic circle lit up around him.

"Mommy? Why are we in this dark room? Lets go back into the guild!" (A/n okay so lets establish how mean I would be to stop right here...but im not so... 's all good!)

888

"What seems to be the problem, dear little one?" Aquamarine asked at Kim's 9th attempt at summoning her

"It's just really hard to visualize you without the key, okay!" She cried out in frustration

"Then calm down and try again, stop thinking about it so much. Just imagine me there and let the magic do its work." The spirit coached gently

Kim reached out to the dragon and imagined her being pulled into this world. She felt the gate open, and the next thing she knew she had a water dragon bashing down the walls around them. Seb and Poppy (A/n you thought I forgot them again, didn't you?) rushed to the room, theirs having been destroyed in the path of the spirit.

"Kim, how long can you hold this?" Seb asked Kim quietly

She gave him a determined stare, "As long as I have to."

Kim clambered onto the back of her friend and they set of in search of her brother.. Poppy was frighteningly quiet, but as the girl was about to say something, Seb looked at her and shook his head so she didn't speak. They came across another problem in the meantime, so Kim didn't have much time to mull it over. Apparently a giant sparkly blue dragon wasn't as inconspicuous as otherwise assumed, because the second they made it from the room mages flocked them from all around trying to recapture the daughter of the best celestial spirit mage in all of Fiore. The companions of the girl would have nothing of it, however. Aquamarine trampled anyone she could see and the Exeeds yowled a battle cry and knocked out anyone who even got near her. But Kimiko Suuta Dragneel, to her mother's credit and her father's horror, refused to be satisfied with being protected. Kim pulled a slingshot from the belt that usually held her keys and shot a small metal ball into the head of anyone who got to close.

She slid off of Aqua and had her be the distraction as she looked for her brother, because she refused to leave without her twin. Kim had only looked for ten minutes when she saw him at the bar of the guild laughing, sitting in the witch's lap. Kim went numb, her eyes burned and tears threatened to flow down her cheeks in waves. She slapped her cheeks to stop herself.

"That isn't Ryuu, keep looking. It just looks like him. Your Onii-chan would never do this to you. He loves you, this isnt him." She whispered to herself

Tiptoeing back to keep searching, Ryuu spotted his twin sister.

"Hey Mommy, isn't that the little fairy? Can't I play with her? I promise I wont hurt her all that much!" Kim froze at the tone of her brother's voice

She broke into a dead run.

"Ruby, Aqua, Granny Topaz! Anyone, help me!" Kim screeched in fear as the people from the guild ran after her

Seb lifted her up and all three of them raced to the nearest window, door, chunk of missing wall, any way out. They weren't successful. A maze of halls panned out around them, but they had hit a dead end.

"Ryuu," Kim whimpered at her brother, "what's wrong? Please, let's get out of here! And then we can go home to Mommy and Daddy and Fairy Tail."

Ryuu looked at her in confusion, "I am home. My Mommy's the master of this guild, Fairy-chan."

He sneered at her, "And you won't be able to leave, Fairy-chan, I just met you! We haven't even played yet!"

Kim was speechless. This wasn't her brother, it couldn't be. Ryuu could never be mean like this, never be cold like this boy was. This couldn't be her Ryuu.

"It just, it just cant be you!" She yelled at him, "Please! We have to go home. They're probably really worried, Ryuu. And you hafta wake up now, because I'm scared and I don't know what to do!"

Again, all Kim acquired from her brother was a blank stare and a look that suggested she had lost her marbles.

"I need to leave now," She told him, willing her dragon to appear

"Your not going anywhere Fairy-chan," Ryuu spat at her

She had exhausted her magic. Control was not a trait passed on to either of the twins, but Kim seemed to have it the worst. She couldn't adjust how much she used and it always went away faster than it should.

"Ryuu." She cried desperately, willing him to snap out of it

"Let's go play!" He said excitedly

Kim's eyes widened in fear. Fire danced over her brother's finger tips. He smiled a smile she hoped to never see on his face again.

"Onii-chan, yamette onegai."* She begged as he moved closer

"Play nice and we can be friends." He said waving his flaming hands close enough to her face she could feel the heat of the flame, "So we can play nice, then?"

She nodded her head eagerly. He giggled and whisked her off to his room. Inside the room toys were scattered everywhere, and he looked happy as he played and offered her toys. She accepted and played with him. Kim was really really scared. She was scared of her own brother and she was scared of what was going to happen. She really wanted her parents. They would know how to fix all this. They knew how to save the day. But they weren't here yet, and now Kim had to be strong. But something inside her crumpled, she didn't want to be strong anymore. She wanted to bury herself in her brother's overprotective hug. Only even she knew that wasnt possible anymore. Now it was her turn to be the hero. And heroes didn't run away from anything.

"Natsu, anything?" Lucy asked worriedly

"Not since you asked five minutes ago." He replied irritably

She glared at him, and even in their situation he couldn't help but notice she was pouting adorably. He was just about to lean in and steal a kiss when a chorus sounded behind him.

"Get a room! Isn't two kids enough?" the guild yelled at him.

Natsu sputtered, "Mind your own damn buisne-" Then he froze.

"Natsu?" Lucy whispered, putting her hand on his arm

"Luce, I got it. I found their scent!" He yowled in triumph

The dragonslayer broke into a run with Lucy in tow, her being barely able to keep up with him.

"Natsu! Slow down!" Erza called from behind them

"I can't," he yelled back, "I might lose it, and I have to find them."

"What about finding them together does your thick skull not understand!" Erza growled sprinting to catch up

The rest of the guild followed closely behind. The closer they got the stronger the scent. Natsu caught a whiff of two very familiar scents.

"Mama! Papa!" Two exceeds called from a distance

He was going to call out but Lucy beat him to it, "Seb! Poppy!"

If even possible she ran faster than Natsu and crushed them to her chest. Instead of sputtering and pushing away, yelling that they cant breathe, like they usually do they cuddled with her quietly. The scene was too private to be intruded on. Finally Seb was the first one to speak.

"They're still in there. I couldn't get them out." he told Lucy dejectedly

She smiled at him gently, "But you tried didn't you?"

He nodded furiously.

"Then that's all I could have ever asked." She whispered, wiping the tears from his face

"You don't hate me?" he sniffed, rubbing his eyes

"Never ever in the entire world." She replied warmly

It was Poppy's turn to look up, and not unlike Seb she bore more bad news.

"Mama." she called quietly to get the blonde's attention

"Whats wrong?" Lucy asked gently

"She did something to Ryuu, I think they're both in big trouble!" Poppy cried

Finally Natsu entered the scene.

"What do you mean by 'big trouble'." Natsu coaxed

"She could hurt them." She whimpered

Natsu stalked off and snarled at the sky. The after calming down he came back.

"Can you take us to where they are? It will take too long for me to try and remember the way back." Natsu urged

They nodded. Detaching themselves from Lucy they took off, stopping periodically to make sure the fairies were keeping up. They were.

Finally they found themselves in front of a guild, and Natsu knew it was the right one. He could smell her in it. In fact it reeked of her, and his children for that matter. That didn't make him happy, that's for sure. There was a edge of a coppery smell, to the guild, one that could only be identified as blood. His vision tinged red and he let out a roar before breaking a wall down to enter.

Familiar faces entered his eyesight, but the only thing he could notice was his stomach churning. He had a horrible feeling, and by the grim look on Lucy's face so did she. He stepped forward, fist flaming, and launched himself at the first person before him. Behind him sounded the battle calls of his nakama, his family.

Okay that was too short for how longs its been since ive updated. Which im really sorry for guys, any of you are welcome to send me a pm if you think its talking to long for my update. I do know that Lucy is a bit OOC, or a least I think she may be. But remember she had her children kidnapped by a crazy psychopathic bitch, who also took Natsu away from her for years. I cant believe what I did to Ryuu ~ I was crying as I typed it like, "No! Stop it you horrible person!" but I had to for the story to go on. I want to bring up one last thing, if you think about it, Yuki is described to look like Lisanna. I didn't do it on purpose, but did anyone else pick that up? Okay, my lovelies, Please review. They give me life. I swear.
