Lucy was fairly nervous to be sitting on the train with Erza, Gray, Natsu, and Angeles, mostly because Erza had made her sit next to Angeles and the man was not happy about it. The requip mage would not allow him to sit by himself in another train car, finding it important that he listen to the information she had to give clearly. Natsu was sitting on her other side looking green and the dragon slayer was barely moving as his stomach made worrying noises. The celestial wizard was even more uneasy in the train when Erza decided to knock Natsu out.

"Hey, what type of magic do you use?" Lucy asked the redhead in hopes that she could ignore the fact that she could practically feel the green-eyed man's annoyance radiating off of him.

"Erza's magic is pretty," Happy said. "It makes her opponents bleed."

His statement caused the blonde to sweat nervously, "B-Bleed?"

"I think Gray's is far more beautiful than mine," Erza spoke with a smile.

Gray raised an eyebrow, "You think so?" He used his ice magic to make a small sculpture of their guild mark.

"Oh, wow," Lucy looked at it in awe. "It's so pretty."

"Thanks," He said before, surprisingly, handing the sculpture over to Angeles. He watched as the green-eyed man balanced it on his fingers and let it rock back and forth in front of him.

Lucy turned to Angeles next to her and decided to ask nervously, "What magic do you use?"

He glanced over at her before looking out the window, "Why do you need to know? It doesn't matter."

"I'm just curious. No one knows much about you and I thought I'd try to get to know you."

"My magic... I hate it."

Gray, Erza, and Lucy looked at each other in surprise. How could he hate his magic? What made him hate his magic?

"Titania," Angeles looked over at her with his arms crossed. "Tell us about the supposedly distressing news you heard so we can get this stupid trip over with."

"Right, of course. I overheard some dark mages speaking about an object called Lullaby. They seemed to be planning on using it to cause trouble. They said that they were planning on unsealing it for a man named Erigor. I can only assume that he is their leader."

"Lullaby..." Lucy murmured with horror in her eyes.

"What is it, Lucy? Do you know what it is?" Gray asked, looking at her.

"Lullaby is a form of death magic," Angeles spoke up. He seemed to be reading from the mathematics book Erza had gotten him. "It lulls its victims to their death with its song. It's pretty nasty stuff. Even the slightest sound of its music will start killing the plant life around its vicinity."

Lucy looked at him in surprise, "How do you know so much about Lullaby? I only know bits and pieces, and even then those are just rumors

Erza chuckled and shook her head, "He may not seem like it but Angeles is one of the smartest people in the entire guild, maybe even the smartest. If anyone knows anything about different types of magic, it's him."
