A/N Happy Halloween!
"Aye!" Happy agreed.
I will try to do Halloween Specials for both of my stories, but it will take time because this story hasn't truly started until this chapter…
"Well, give them the news." Charle reminded.
The Special Request Arc ends here!
"You made me wait long enough." The blonde teen chastised.
"The last chapter was posted less than 24 hours ago." Lucy replied. (As of being written, not published)
"Who are you?" Happy asked.
Enjoy!
The Light of the Past
Team Natsu just reached their destination. Natsu stumbled upon the object of their search.
"Whoa!" Natsu exclaimed.
"Wait up, Natsu." Gray called out.
"Are those people?" Happy asked.
"Th-they a-are." Charle replied in disbelief.
"A giant lacrima…" Wendy gasped.
Natsu grinned, "Let's break them out! Fire Dragon's Iron Fist! Not even a scratch!?" Natsu sounded displeased.
"Six." Erza interjected.
"Wait a second. The one in the middle, he has his hands in casting position." Lucy observed.
"Maybe it can't be broken by force." Wendy proposed as she placed her hand on the lacrima.
"Think happy thoughts!" Happy cheered.
"Happiness is the opposite of hate, and hate leads to destruction." Lucy thought aloud.
"Makes sense." Charle chimed in.
Everyone looked as a crack formed around Wendy's hand. "Think happy thoughts." She mumbled. After that Erza, Lucy, Happy, and Charle proceeded to do the same thing.
The lacrima continued to crack. Soon all of the cracks conjoined in the center, and a magic circle appeared! The one noticeable feature was located in the middle of the spell, a glowing winged heart. This same magic circle appeared above each member of Team Natsu, and the area within the magic circles seemed to radiate pure light. Finally as if approving them, the lacrima shattered completely.
"Quickly," Erza yelled, "they need medical attention." She ran over to the nearest unconscious person.
"Th…" A whisper sounded.
"Huh?" Wendy looked over.
"Thank you." The boy struggled. It's all fading to black…
"...Lightning...De...v...il's….Ra...g….e" A blonde boy tried to say.
Gray mumbled in disbelief and surprise, "White lightning."
"God damn it. I'm too tired." The boy seemed to have white lightning sparking from his mouth.
30 minutes later…
"What the heck was that!" A teenager in a scale-like jacket exclaimed.
"You are awake already." Wendy seemed surprised.
The boy had a look of realization, "You… you are the Sky Dragon Slayer with the white exceed."
"How did you know?" She asked seemingly surprised.
"You told me...through your memories that you hold dear." He replied, trying to make sense of his spell. "Heart's Embrace. You showed the light in your heart to break through." He explained.
"That lacrima was your spell. It wasn't made of any sort of black magic, yet there was still a dark presence." She rambled.
"You mean our devil?" He asked.
"One of the others is a devil!" She gasped.
"Matthew, the Lightning Devil Slayer." He explained.
"Oh." She sighed in relief.
He made a proposal, "Let's start off right."
"Yeah!" She agreed.
"My name is Kevin." He introduced.
"I'm Wendy." She smiled.
"Nice to meet you, Wendy!" He offered a hand.
"You too, Kevin." She happily shook his hand. "Wait, you said something when you woke up, right?" Wendy asked.
"Yeah, I saw someone with pink hair fighting a friend of mine behind a huge building. It had the same mark on your shoulder being displayed at the front entrance." He thought back.
"The guild hall." She answered.
Suddenly words echoed from the distance, "Where the hell am I!?"
Kevin stumbled to his feet in panic, "Matthew, you idiot." With that he ran.
Outside of Wendy's tent…
Kevin continued to run in the direction of his friend's voice, but he stopped when he caught a glimpse of Azrael, the Satan Soul user and the second of their two devils. He had curly hair, a woven beanie, black hoodie, glasses, normal dark colored jeans, red shoes, and a bracelet on his left wrist which was gold with a silver charm shaped like a cross.
Azrael approached the enraged lightning devil, turning one of his hands demonic. "Stop overreacting." With a single flick Matthew was sent hurling into the trunk of a tree.
"Susan-chan, fucka you!" Sam approached. She was her normal self. She has long straight hair, jeans, a lavender colored jacket with her glasses in one pocket, and shoes with an angelic pattern. Samantha calls Azrael by the nickname of Susan because she wants too; she has called him that for years.
Matthew got up and his eyes widened, "IT'S HER! SCARY GIRL!"
A sword pierced the tree right next to Matthew's face. "Mika is not scary!" She barked.
"It's like another Erza! A sword appeared out of thin air!" Natsu screamed.
"Definitely a great swordswoman." Erza nodded in approval.
Micaylah or Mika, the nickname given by her friends, often refers to herself in the third person because she finds it easier to explains herself in such ways, and she has gotten so used to it that she is unaware when she actually does it. She has short straight hair, a quite ordinary pair of pants, a thin red and white button up plaid jacket, and a gold necklace with a silver cross made of sword blades.
"Wow!" Gray complimented after seeing the deadly aim of the swordswoman.
Azrael scratched his head, "Where are the two of them?"
"Kevin, the others are over there." Mady tapped on his shoulder.
"Mady!" Kevin gasped and flinched.
Mady just shook her head, "Still as easy to scare as it was nine years ago."
"There you are." Wendy had once again joined the others.
Kevin looked over his shoulder only to see Matthew grinning. "We shouldn't approach now. Moving anywhere his head would be facing you is dangerous." He recommend.
"What happened?" Mady asked.
"They are at it again." Kevin explained. "Oh, it also seems we came in time to see the main event." You could see the two wizards glaring at each other.
"Lightning Devil's Rage!" White lightning emerged from his mouth.
"Metal God's Bellows!" She exhaled a torrent of what looked like sharpened blades.
Once the dust settled Azrael stepped in, "I declare this match pointless, let us calm down before I decide if you should get punished."
"We should be thanking the people who chose to help us." Mady interjected.
Madalyn has longish hair, a red scarf with great significance, and no other clothing that is out of the ordinary. Her best friend in the group, in general as well, is Micaylah.
Now that you know the six wizards of unknown origins I should explain. As you know Matthew is a Devil Slayer and Mika is a God Slayer. They are so much alike that they always have the urge to argue for power or control. Next up is Sam. She refers to everyone else in the group as her grandchildren because she watches over and joins in their shenanigans. Azrael is the peacekeeper due to the fact that he stops most of the pointless fighting. Mady is the one who helps in the supervision of everyone. Finally there is Kevin. He tries to find ways of keeping the group under protection; he is actually the weakest of everyone when it comes to power in battle.
Behind Mady stood Kevin, who was speaking to Wendy. After explaining most of the situation in whispers an understanding Wendy made a proposal to everyone present, which was everyone…
"Why don't we bring them back to Fairy Tail with us?" Wendy seemed to try and emphasize her point.
"Why not." Natsu nodded.
"It's not a bad idea." Gray thought aloud.
"It wouldn't hurt to bring them back with us." Lucy agreed.
"Aye!" Happy cheered.
"I agree with Wendy's proposal." Charle nodded.
"We don't have anything better to do." Azrael shrugged.
"Well then it's settled, back to the guild." Erza started walking back the the way they came.
Natsu walked over to Matthew with a certain fire in his eyes, "Why don't we have a battle when we get to the guild."
"Now that's an offer I can't refuse. Deal!" Matthew didn't give it a second thought.
Watching from the middle of the small crowd Kevin thought to himself, that explains it all. It's definitely better than the war I protected us from...the war. Kevin turned towards Wendy. "What year is it?" He asked showing a hint of concern.
"It is year X795, why?" She replied.
"I was just wondering." His voice was quivering. It is year X795. Just how powerful is that spell I created? This should not be possible, yet...they stand here...and so do I. We are somehow still live. After more than 400 years, we still stand tall and can stand at all.
"Are you excited? You guys haven't been out of that shield in who knows how long." Wendy asked.
"I guess so. I get to live again." He replied somberly.
"Live...again?" Charle glanced up at him.
"I mean...uh...um...experience more things." He sweatdropped.
"Anyway, you'll love it there. It's a fun, happy, and especially exciting." Wendy smiled.
There was a small pause in their conversation. Kevin wore a blank look which was soon replaced by a smile. "Yeah, I know know that I will love it there." He replied.
Charle felt unease due to the sudden change in his attitude. It's as if he saw it...the future.
Charle's Precognition…
"I told you that I would love it here." Kevin reminded.
"Come on! Let's get our battle started!" Natsu exclaimed.
"I'm right behind you." Matthew replied.
"It'll be fun to watch." Wendy said cheerily.
"Aye sir," Happy agreed.
"This is what I saw." Kevin mumbled.
End of Precognition…
"Are you okay Charle?" Kevin asked.
"I'm fine, why?" She responded.
"You seemed out of it, that's all." He explained.
"I'm fine, thanks for asking." She answered.
"She has always been like this towards people she doesn't know, or people who she thinks are suspicious." Wendy whispered.
"Aye." He nodded. "If I had stumbled across a giant sparkling crystal, and it had people in it I would be suspicious." He whispered sarcastically causing both participants to break out into laughter.
"What's so funny?" Charle asked.
"HURRY UP! I WANT TO FIGHT ALREADY!" Matthew yelled in excitement as he marched alongside Natsu at a surprisingly fast pace.
A/N Sorry for taking so long. You know how life is. Once it catches up you're screwed.
"Hurry up and upload the chapter." Matthew complained.
Aye sir!
