The Mission That Brought Us Together ~ Discovery.
"That old man shouldn't have call you to come with me.. I'm fine by myself." Exclaimed the lighting dragon slayer.
"Master is just worried about you.. After all, the mission seems a little .. weird." Says the white hair woman.
The two S-Class mages were having a little conversation as they search in the forest. The bright sun light doesn't seems to be reaching them due to the the tall trees. As they walk deeper into the forest..
"Don't you think it's a little bit weird Laxus?"
"Huh? Weird? How?"
"This forest seems very quiet. There's no animals at all after we were walking for quite a while. Not even a bird" her eyes got a little bit tense as she inspect around the forest.
"Now that you mention it.. It's really quite. Doesn't feel like I'm in a forest." The dragon slayer's eyes tense up as well.
While they continue moving into the forest, suddenly..
"There!" Laxus exclaimed then run towards something that caught his attention. Mirajane follow him, trying to see what did the dragon slayer found.
They both stop and look shock. A gigantic dark blue magic circle is swirling there slowly.. Almost big enough space for a guild to be build there. Not a single tree near the magic circle.
"Wh.. What is this?" Mira ask, still in shock.
"I don't know. Some kind of spell maybe." As Laxus finished his sentence, he move his right leg forward, moving towards the circle.
"WAIT! This might be a trap Lax.."
Just as the dragon slayer step at the tiny bit side of the magic circle, it swirl quickly.. the surrounding were shaking as if an earthquake is happening.
"Lax.. Laxus!"
Just at that very moment, two gigantic tentacles came out from the ground, each wrap a wizard.
"AAAHHH!"
"MIRA! DAMN IT!"
The two S-Class mages were floating in the air wrap in the tentacles, as something slowly came out in the middle of the magic circle.
"Wha.. What's that?" Ask the dragon slayer.
"I'm not sure." Reply the white hair woman.
Slowly coming up is a giant octopus like creature. The eyes were magic circle as the same color it were coming up from. 8 sharp teeth closing it's mouth. Six more tentacles came up with it. As the creature fully being visible, the gigantic magic circle below it close up. Then the two magic circle at the eye shine up and start to spin. The tentacles start to move.
"What on earth is this thing?" Ask the barmaid still in shock.
"Is this what our mission is all about?"
Opening the sharp teeth aside, saliva dripping from it's mouth, the creature slowly pull the two wizards closer.
"Is.. Is it going to eat us?" Mira ask while struggling to get herself out of the tentacle wrapping her.
"Isn't it obvious.. What should we do?" Replied the dragon slayer.
"Laxus, zap is with your lighting."
"You think I didn't think about this? I wanted to but you will also be zap."
"Just do it. I rather be zap than being eaten alive."
"Tch.. I.."
"Laxus! Do it!"
"Tch.. Guess I have no other choice.. RRRAAAHHH"
Electric spark zap out from the lighting dragon slayer body, zapping the tentacle that wrap him and to the whole creature.
"RRRRRRRHHHHHHHH"
"AAAAAHHHHH!" The S-Class wizard scream as the electric run through her.
Both the tentacles let loose.. Laxus reach the ground in a squatting position then immediately leap off to his left, catching Mirajane just in time.
"Hey! You ok?" Laxus ask with a little worried expression on his face.
The woman in his arm open her eyes and smile softly.
"I wouldn't be a S-Class if I'm done but some electric shock like this." Her smile widen, as if teasing.
The lighting dragon slayer grin at her. Then both of them swift their attention to that octopus creature. In that instance, a tentacle swing smashing the place they were at. Grabbing the barmaid, the blonde leap to his right, avoiding that attack just in time.
"Let me down Laxus, I'm fine."
"You can take a rest while I finish this thing off." He say as he put her down.
"This isn't a normal creature. I remembered that magic circle earlier, I'm sure I seen it in a book before. It's an ancient spell. They use this spell to set as a protection during war times. When the enemy try to make a surprised attack, the magic circle will definitely be in the way. If it's being step on, a creature will come out and attack. I don't believe such spell still exist." The white hair woman explain.
"RRRRRHHHHH!" The octopus creature let out a scream, then a magic circle forms in front of it's mouth. Dark purple liquid is being shoot in a few shots at the two mages.
Laxus leap to the left while Mira jumps to the right. The purple liquid hits the ground and smoke come out at the landing area.
"Poison?" Laxus mutter as he watch the smoke.
"Hmm.. My deserve served huh?" Mira let out a evil grin. Then magic circle swirl on top of her. Her long white hair stands and she turn in an instant to none other than her satan soul.
"Mira, this poison might be different from what you had experienced before. This creature is ancient like you said, the poison might be different." Laxus warn the demon when he see her walking to the monster.
"Never try never know right?" The demon smile at the dragon slayer then leap forward the creature. Clenching her fist and punch the monster hard. Spread her wings, she then kick the monster to jump back.
Instantly, magic circle appear in front of the monster, firing the acid shots towards the demon. Opening her palm wide as a cover from the poison from hitting her face. She then licks some of it off her finger.
She grins, then say "Not the best one I ever tasted."
The dragon slayer let out a sigh and smile. "Shall we knock it off then?"
They look at each other with a grin. Then turn facing the monster with a serious expression.
Again, magic circle appear at the monster's mouth, Mirajane form a black ball at her right palm and shoot it to the monster before it fire the poison. Smoke came out from the monster's mouth. With no time wasted, Laxus send a lighting punch towards the smoke.
Before the smoke clear off, tentacles rush towards them, hitting and smashing randomly. The demon flew to the sky while the lighting dragon slayer leap away from one after another attack. As the smoke clear off, the creature is being unharmed at all form the two S-Class mages.
"Not a scratch?" whisper the demon to herself.
"Just how hard is this thing?" mutter the dragon slayer.
"I think it's not hard. It's elastic. The elastic skin of that monster absorb our attack I believe." say the demon still in the air.
BBBZZZTTT... The dragon slayer emits shocks of electricity off his body. Just as a tentacle came down almost hitting him, he leap off and charge right at the monster. His lighting fist deliver a hard blow in between the creature's eyes, follow up with a right lighting kick. The monster fend off the lighting dragon slayer with one of it's tentacle. While being push off the creature, he zaps the tentacle's that push him back.
Just as the lighting went off from shocking the creature, poison like energy ball surrounding the two demon fist hits the creature over and over again at an incredible speed. Just as the demon spot a tentacle coming down from above to smash her, she deliver a hard kick with her wight leg upwards, making her being push down by that force and flew back.
"RRRRRRGGGGGG" the creature let out a loud screech. However, the creature didn't move an inch and is still the same as it just came out from the magic circle earlier.. unharmed. It's tentacles swing around more vigorously but not attacking. The two S-Class mages have a disturb look on their faces, each thinking how to defeat that creature since it seems to take no damage at all from their attacks. Just then the creature open it's mouth again and let out another loud road.
Just then, the two wizards eyes peel open wide. Looking at each other with the demon spoke up first.
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking Laxus?" she grin after asking the dragon slayer.
Laxus smirked at the flying demon then he replied ever so calmly. "Yeah. Time to wrap things up." His grin got wider.
Both of them turn back to face the creature just before magic circle form in front of the monster's mouth. Purple poison shot sent to the two wizards. Dodging with their incredible speed, the keep their focus on the creature. Just as the magic circle disappear, Laxus deliver a lighting punch towards the creature's opening mouth with the demon's demonic evil explosion.
"RRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGG" This time, the creature screech sounds troublesome. Did their attack work?
The monster's eyes magic circle swirl even faster than ever before. The creature swirl and smash its tentacles almost randomly at the two fairy tail wizards. While dodging the tentacles attacks, the lighting dragon slayer look up at the demon then back at the on coming tentacles attack.
"Mira!" He speak while still dodging. "The monster seems to avoid opening the mouth. We got to blast together with all we got when the monster open it's mouth again." Suggest the dragon slayer.
Dodging the tentacles attack in the air, the demon catch a glimpse of the dragon slayer before she speaks up. "Give me signal and I'll be on the ground with you."
The dragon slayer nods, as if he knows the demon will know he did it. The area is being smash pretty bad, the forest in that part seems to be destroy almost completely. In an instant, all the monster's tentacles draw back and it's mouth is open again!
"NOW!" Laxus eyes widen as he shout out. The demon descend in front of the lighting dragon slayer in a squatting position in a instant.
Both the S-Class mages charge up all their magical power in an instant and..
"Souuulll EXTINCTION!"
"Dragon Slayer's Secret Art, Roarinnggg THUNDER!"
The dark purple energy blast from below and the furious lighting from above mix and send into the monster's opening mouth. A glimpse of flash is seen then a massive explosion erupts inside the monster's mouth. A loud screech is let out by that monster and huge amount of smokes cover up that whole area...
Slowly when the smoke clear little by little, the two S-Class mages watch intensely, tentacle after tentacle is been seen on the ground. Until the smoke clear off fully, the monster is collapse on the spot it is on. The eyes' magic circle doesn't seems to be swirling anymore.
The blonde let out a happy sigh while the demon's hair drop down, turning back to her human self with a smile on her face. She stand up as the dragon slayer walk to her right. They watch the creature as it slowly being swallow by the ground.
"The monster.."Laxus speak as he look at the monster.
"It will go back to where it came from according to the book. In this case, the monster came up from the ground, so it will go back into the ground." explain the white hair woman.
When the monster is fully out of sight, they look at each other with a smile on her face and a grin on his face. Just then, the descending sun light shine a little at the two fairy tail S-Class wizards...
