Katherine POV

"You are not taking away the only person left who cares about me." My sister yelled as she blocked the punch meant for Cobra. "You are the evil ones Cobra saved me."

"Serena we aren't evil!" I shouted back with frustration, blocking around house kick that she threw at me.

"My name isn't Serena, its Dark Heart!" She kicked out of my hold and propelled herself up, landing on the lower branch of a tree. "Serena is the name my mother gave me, and the name my sister used to sing. It's only a chilling memory now and a constant reminder that those I love are taken away from me forever."

"I am not gone, why can't you see what is right in front of you?!" Even being evil, she had an amazing skill to get on my nerves. Why was she was taking my death so badly? And why couldn't she figure out that I wasn't actually dead?

"I can see what is in front of me, and all I see is an abomination of my sister." Her nose crinkled in disgust. "She was murdered and the fact that Gray would bring her back to life the way he has is disgusting."

"I am a human being!" Serena's speech was getting awfully repetitive, and I was sick of hearing her words. "Do I need to make myself bleed for you to believe me?"

"You are not able to bleed, you're an ice sculpture." Serena's murky eyes glared down at me from the tree. "An ice sculpture that I should have melted the last time we met."

"Lord above....I am done with you!" I yelled "Frost dragon secret art, frost daggers!" I sent millions of tiny frost shards, sharper than glass, flying at her icy branch. "Can you listen to yourself? This isn't you, my sister SERENA would not blindly follow someone's word of mouth. The sister I knew would look for the facts."

"And the sister I knew wouldn't try to stab my eyes with shards of frost!" I couldn't see Serena behind the wall of steam she had created from melting the daggers, 

but I could still see the shadow of her body through the mist. "Water dragon secret art, cascading river!"

"A cascading what?!" I tried to jump off the ground to avoid an attack that I didn't know anything about, but it was hard when the ground beneath me became a river and encased my feet so I couldn't move. "What the hell is this?"

"It's something I learned when I was fighting Sting and Rouge. They are very talented Dragon slayers, but they can't hold their ground for very long." Serena was smiling, but it was dark and cruel and sent a shiver down my spine. "Now what should I do....Oh!" Serena collapsed, grabbing her chest as if it was going to fall apart if she didn't. She was curled into a fertile position screaming out and writhing out in pain. "Wh-what is happening?"

I looked over to where Gray had been tangled up with Cobra; Natsu, Lucy and Erza were now standing with him. I couldn't help but smile when I saw that Cobra was inside some kind of clock that was obviously concealing his powers. As Serena was withering in pain on the ground, her cascading river spell was fading away and soon there was grass under my feet once again.

"Gez you two have been fighting for almost an hour." Natsu commented as I walked closer towards him. "I kept asking if you needed help but you never responded."

"You did?" I questioned.

"Yes, we tried many times to try and separate you two." Erza explained. "But every time we got close we were sent away by some force. I think without trying, when you two started fighting, your magic made a barrier that nothing, not even magic could get through."

"We managed to neutralize Cobra's powers." Lucy gestured to the clock. "But, it won't last long. If we're going to help your sister it should be soon."
