"No, it can't be," One of the guards said as the mist cleared to reveal Dealana, Erza Scarlet and Gray coming to the rescue of Happy, Carla and Lucy. 

"Stormborn..." Erza Knightwalker growled, glaring straight at the Edolas version of Dealana, who also wore a mask to hide the growing smirk on her face.

"Wait! Is that Gray Surge?" Another guard asked looking at the half-naked ice mage.

"No, those two are Earthlanders, and the masked one is Stormborn, the criminal responsible for messing with the king's plans." another guard explained. If Erza and Gray were surprised by the notion of Edolas Dealana being a criminal, they didn't show it.

"You guys have got some explainin' to do. Where are our friends that your king turned into a lacrima!" Gray demanded them before Dealana watched in awe as he brought a closed fist to his palm before slamming both hands on the ground. A wave of ice spikes rushed forward and took out the royal army soldiers in mere seconds. It was incredible and Dealana almost missed Erza Knightwalker evading the magical attack. The redhead captain used the walls to rebound towards them before her attack was intercepted by none other than her counterpart.

The tension in the hallway rose and the force of two Erza's colliding in battle ruffled Dealana's clothes and long yellow scarf as she stabilized herself. Dealana ducked past them and slid to a halt to help the busty blond, who resembled what Dealana remembered her friend Lucy Ashley looking like. 

The blond and the exceeds were hesitant of her help and Dealana assumed it was because of the mask. However, before she could reassure Lucy and the two exceeds that she meant no harm, Earthland Natsu's voice rang from down the hall.

"You asked for it! You guys are in big trouble now! I'm gonna beat the crap out of every last one of ya!"

"Woah, Natsu?" Lucy gasped.

"Yeah! He must be nearby," Gray realized.

"It came from up ahead," Happy said.

"And I bet Wendy's with him," Carla added.

"Go on, Gray, I can handle this," Erza told them from where she stood blocking Knightwalker's weapon with one of her swords.

"Right," Gray nodded before heading over to the others in pursuit of Natsu and Wendy. He approached where Dealana as quickly checking over the fallen exceeds for any serious injuries. "You okay? Can you stand up?" He asked Lucy, using his magic to freeze off the bindings around her wrists.
