Hey, everybody! So now it's time for our third chapter of "Visitors"! Here, we're gonna be getting introduced to some of the pairings for this story, including Ben X Cana and Korra X Gray X Juvia! Also, we'll be getting into one of the big parts of the story, being the epic battle that determines Natsu's fate as a Team Omniverse member.
Also, as a quick reminder to those of you who are unfamiliar with this yet, this story takes place long before "Rainbow Rocks: The Omniversal Crossover" and many others. With that, I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE CARTOON OR ANIME SERIES' USED IN THIS STORY.
For now, it's time to delve into the third chapter of "Visitors"! Enjoy!
VISITORS
A swig of booze went into the mouth of Fairy Tail's heaviest drinker, Cana Alberona, as she sat at a table with Lisanna and Elfman Strauss, who were all looking on at the strangers that had arrived at the guild. Just earlier, the Team Omniverse members had been introduced to Natsu, Lucy, Gray, Erza, Wendy, Happy, and Carla. The requip mage was now dressed in a simple white blouse and blue skirt as her Heart Kreuz armor had left her form. They were all gathered at one part of the building, chatting away and exchanging greetings with each other.
"Hey, Mira," the young, white haired girl began, catching her older sister's attention as she stopped for a moment, holding a tray with a few bottles of beer upon it, "who are those people with Gingka?" she asked, gesturing towards them with her left index finger.
"I think they're his friends," she replied, looking over at them, seeing that Ben was driving the conversation, "Apparently, they all came to this universe with him," she added with a small giggle.
"I still can't believe he said he's from a different universe…" her brother confessed, taking a quick glance to them.
"But he sure has some cool lookin' friends…" the alcoholic brunette confessed, having a saucy expression on her face as she stared at the Omnitrix bearer, "Cute, even," she mentioned with a light blush across her cheeks. The white haired girls giggled out of amusement, continuing to listen in on the ongoing conversation. From afar, Gajeel Redfox, Levy McGarden, and Lily also eavesdropped at their own table, watching as the two groups were appearing to chat it up.
"Boy…" the evo uttered in a surprised tone as he overlooked the edifice, "Gotta say, this place could use an overhaul…" he pointed out bluntly. With a groan, the Avatar suddenly elbowed him in the chest, making him grimace in pain as he stumbled back.
"Anyways…" she began, changing the subject as the goggled teen glared at her, "this is your guild?" she inquired, looking around.
"Uh-huh!" the fire dragon slayer responded with a nod, "Welcome to Fairy Tail!" he greeted, gesturing towards the rest of the place.
"We heard in town that this place hadn't been in business for a while…" the Team Omniverse leader mentioned with a raised eyebrow, "How come?" he asked curiously.
"Long story…" the ice wizard responded, rolling his eyes out of exasperation as he had put his shirts and jacket back on himself.
"But in the meantime," the celestial mage started to say, bringing the focus onto her, "we can tell you all about it while we've got the chance…" she noted, chuckling nervously. From afar, Makarov Dreyar looked on at the conversation, narrowing his eyes onto the strangers as he was suspicious of their intentions.
EPISODE II PART I
"So… you're all from different worlds?" Lucy guessed as her guild mates had their mouths gaping open from the information they had learned from their guests.
"Pretty much, yeah," Ben responded, rubbing the back of his head sheepishly as his teammates all nodded in agreement, much to the surprise of the Fairy Tail members while they gasped. However, the fire dragon slayer's open mouth closed into an excited grin, catching the attention of the ice mage standing beside him.
"Natsu," he began sternly to him as a cold aura wafted over his body, "what are you thinking?" he asked, crossing his arms.
"Heh, heh," he chuckled in response, folding his own extremities behind his head, "Just thinkin' 'bout how all the guys in front of us are from different worlds…" he started to say, "makes me wonder how tough they are," he noted.
"Seriously?!" the blonde haired girl exclaimed in surprise, panicking a little.
"That's Natsu for ya…" Happy pointed out with a sigh as a drop of sweat rolled down his head.
"I think whiskers there might be the toughest," the pink haired man admitted, pointing at Naruto.
"'Whiskers'?" he questioned in confusion, raising his right eyebrow as a tick mark became visible upon his forehead, "Who're ya callin' whiskers, pinky?!" he yelled, causing the mage to widen his eyes in surprise at the remark.
"And who're ya callin' pinky, whiskers?!" he shouted back, as they both glared at each other angrily, growling all the while.
"Hey, don't go pickin' fights, Natsu!" Gray ordered, jumping into the verbal conflict as his white shirt had come off.
"Don't butt in, ya icy stripper!" his teammate exclaimed as his tongue was flaring up.
"Yeah, and put some clothes on!" the shinobi demanded in agreement, much to the surprise of the onyx-haired teen.
"Say what?!" he yelled back, "What do mean put some-? AH!" he gasped, looking down to see that he had subconsciously taken off his pants as well. Freaking out, he frantically searched for his clothing while the others just stared at him with blank looks on their faces, with the exception of Korra as she laughed.
"There's something you don't see every day…" she noted, still chuckling while from afar, a figure watched in dismay as her beloved was being admired by another girl. It was Juvia Lockser, who was behind a wooden pole as she saw the conversation continue, eyeing the Avatar and the ice mage closely.
'Oh, my darling Gray…' she thought to herself as a blush came across her cheeks, 'It seems you've won the charm of this strange, new woman in the guild,' she noted as she tightened her grip around the pole with her hands, "That must mean she is now... a… LOVE RIVAL!' she declared within her mind, staring at her menacingly while she didn't take any notice.
"Does that happen often?" the evo asked, gesturing towards the onyx haired teen.
"Almost all the time, I'm afraid," the white furred cat responded with a sigh.
"Anyways," Erza began as she suddenly yanked Natsu away by his left ear, causing him to yelp in pain, "I find it hard to believe that all of you are from alternate worlds," she confessed, holding the rambunctious teen down as he struggled to break free of her grip.
"Well, you gotta believe it," Rex chimed in, "Not every day that someone from another universe drops by," he joked with a chuckle, causing the scarlet-haired girl to groan with a sigh.
"How did you come to our universe anyways?" Lucy asked, "Heck, how did you all travel to your own universes?!" she asked, rubbing her hair back and forth in agonizing confusion.
"With these," the Omnitrix bearer replied, reaching into his pocket and pulling out his MPG, holding it before her, causing her to cease her frantic behavior as she blinked upon seeing it, "It's called a Multiversal… Portal Generator," he told her, "It lets us open portals to other universes, and communicate with each other," he explained.
"Oh, wow…" the Celestial mage uttered in awe, as he allowed her to take hold of it.
"It sure sounds handy!" Wendy chimed in, as Carla stood beside her, grinning in agreement. The fire dragon slayer then jumped in, having freed himself from the requip wizard's grip, grasping the device out of his teammate's hands.
"Hey!" she yelled.
"So this is the thing that Gingka said I'd get…" the pink haired teen noted as he grinned widely.
"Huh?" Ben said with a raised eyebrow, glancing over at the beyblader, who sat upon a stool at the bar as he looked back.
"I think he's got what it takes," he told him honestly, "Though, he is a little spastic…" he admitted with a small chuckle.
"What?" Natsu questioned with a raised eyebrow, while the Team Omniverse leader laughed aloud.
"You sure grew up pretty fast," he noted to his shaggy haired teammate, who let out just a small chuckle in response.
"So, do I get to be on the team?" the fire dragon slayer asked excitedly, having his eyes sparkle.
"Sure!" the Omnitrix bearer replied, "If Gingka thinks you've got what it takes," he began, "I'm sure everyone else would say the same thing," he pointed out, making him sheepishly laugh as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Hold on," Erza chimed in while Gray had reclaimed his black pants, putting them on quickly, "Natsu's already part of this guild," she pointed out, making him gnash his teeth in frustration as she came up to them.
"Ya know, Erza," the pink-haired teen began with a pouting expression on his face, "these guys aren't exactly a from a guild and all…" he noted. Suddenly, she whacked him on the head with her left fist, causing him to fall to the ground as the Team Omniverse members gasped in shock.
"Oh boy…" the blue cat muttered as his friend lied upon the wooden floor, with a massive red bump upon his head.
"Ah…" he groaned in pain as steam emerged from the swollen spot atop him.
"Jeez!" Korra exclaimed out of being completely stunned, "Does that happen often?" she asked as she pointed towards them, turning to face Lucy.
"Unfortunately…" she answered with a heavy sigh, causing both the Avatar and the shinobi to cringe in fright.
"Yikes…" the latter of the two uttered, crossing his arms over his chest.
'She's sure a card…' the beyblader thought sarcastically in his head as he stood up from his seat at the bar.
"I get that your team travels between universes to befriend teammates," the requip mage noted, "But I don't understand as to why you'd do that…" she told them, "It's not like you're getting paid, are you?" she guessed, causing Natsu to perk up instantly in surprise.
"Eh, good point…" Ben noted as Gingka had come over, standing beside him, "We're not exactly in it for the pay day…" he quipped in explanation.
"Then what are you in it for?" she asked, folding her arms under her chest.
"To be heroes," the spiky, red haired teen responded, much to her surprise as she looked at him with a raised eyebrow, "We wanna protect the multiverse, no matter what it takes," he told her as she was somewhat stunned.
"See, Erza?" the fire dragon slayer questioned, "I don't care if we ain't workin' for money and all…" he confessed, "I just wanna fight with these guys!" he exclaimed as the Team Omniverse members smiled delightedly in agreement.
"Pipe down!" his guild-mate ordered, stomping her left foot onto his head, causing the floorboards to break as he grunted, much to the shock of the guests as they grimaced and paled at the sight, with the exception of Gingka as he merely widened his eyes.
"Hey, cool down, why don't ya?" he suggested, "It's not like he did anything stupid…" he pointed out, crossing his arms as he glanced away.
"Sorry…" she apologized sheepishly with a drop of sweat rolling down the side of her head, "But he needs to remember that there's still another reason as to why joining you will be impossible," she explained, much to their surprise as they gasped.
"What do you mean, Erza?" the sky dragon slayer asked, jumping in on the conversation.
"The gap," she responded, glancing back at the little girl as she blinked in realization.
"Gap?" Korra questioned, arching an eyebrow as she sat upon a table, with Naruto standing beside her, shrugging as he had no idea what the scarlet-haired girl was referring to.
"Like your… universal travels," she began, "you're going to find this a little hard to believe," she told them, allowing the guests to mentally prepare themselves for her story, "For the past seven years, we were stuck in limbo," she said, "And we've only just recently returned from that," she mentioned, looking away as it was tough for her to thoroughly explain while the Team Omniverse had surprised looks on their faces.
"How'd that all happen?" Rex asked, crossing his arms as he developed a confused expression.
"Some big shot dragon tried to blow us up on an island…" Natsu muttered in reply from the floor as he had his right hand up against his cheek, making the evo gasp in shock, along with the other Team Omniverse members.
"But we somehow managed to save ourselves by coming together and forming some… magical barrier around us and the island before it attacked…" Gray explained as he came over to them.
"Gray... your pants," the requip mage uttered with a sigh. The ice wizard gasped, panicking as he saw that he was in his black boxers yet again, frantically looking around for his clothes. "It took seven years for that same protection magic to be dispelled," she told the guests in the meantime, "which means we've missed out on seven years of training," she added. It took a moment for the information to sink all in for the guests, glancing over at each other with concerned looks.
"Well…" Ben began to say, rubbing the back of his head with his right hand nervously, "so what?" he questioned, "From what we saw earlier, Natsu held his own against Gingka," he noted.
"Yeah, and you were there, Erza!" the fire dragon slayer yelled as he got back up on his feet, with the swollen bump on his head no longer being apparent.
"If you had those seven years of training," the scarlet haired warrior started to say to him, "you'd be able to easily defeat him," she stated, much to the surprise of the beyblader as his eyes narrowed in anger.
'Did… she really just say that?!' he screamed inwardly as he gnashed his teeth together, clenching his fists tightly.
"Uh… can't he train with us?" Korra asked, chiming in while her eyebrow was raised.
"Yeah," Naruto agreed as he nodded, "Even if he's missed out on seven years, we can help make him and the rest of you guys stronger," he reassured, smiling at them.
"Really?!" the sky dragon slayer questioned as she clasped her hands together delightedly, while the others were slightly surprised.
"You'd actually do that for us?" Lucy asked with a surprised look on her face.
"Totally," Rex responded, "We're all friends here now, aren't we?" he guessed, getting smiles in reply from the two girls, along with Gray as he successfully had his pants back on, including his socks and shoes.
"This is… all very kind of you," Erza admitted, "but we can't just let Natsu run off with you," she told them, "Our guild's going to need him now more than ever…" she mentioned.
"Aw, come on, Erza…" the fire mage pleaded, "Besides, it's not like these guys are usin' us for money…" he pointed out.
"Good point," his exceed agreed, "They don't really look like they need it…" he noted, looking at the Omnitrix bearer and the evo closely, admiring their clothing.
"Besides, they'll help us out on missions, right?" the ice wizard guessed as he came over.
"Definitely," Naruto replied with a cheeky smile, chuckling happily.
"See, Erza?" Natsu questioned while he smirked, "I'll still be workin' for the guild when I'm around…" he said, putting his hands at his hips.
"I SAID NO!" she declared, punching him right in the face, sending him flying across the room, crashing into the floor right between Ben and Gingka as they got out of the way. When the dust cleared, the fire dragon slayer was lying on the ground with swirls in his eyes as his right cheek was severely bruised. Everyone grimaced in fright at the power of the S-class wizard, with the exception of the beyblader as he just glared at her.
"What are you, his mother?!" he shouted rhetorically.
"No, but I don't think he should be on your team for the moment," the scarlet haired wizard responded, "Compared to you, he's probably on the same level of power," she noted.
"Who the hell cares about that?!" the spiky, red haired teen responded angrily, much to her surprise, along with everyone else in the guild, including the ones from afar, as the shouting had reached their ears, catching their attentions, "We think he's a good pick 'cause he's got the spirit for it!" he told her, starting to walk over to her.
"Uh, Gingka…" the Omnitrix bearer tried to say, but was too late as his teammate got into her face.
"Spirit, huh?" she inquired in realization, with a tick mark appearing upon her forehead, "And you say Natsu has more than I do?" she questioned as her ire rose greatly. Despite everyone else backing away in fear of her increasing anger, the beyblader didn't flinch. Suddenly, a brilliant, golden light shined upon her body, swirling around as the others shielded their eyes from it. When it vanished, it revealed that she had equipped her Heart Kreuz armor on over her upper body. She then stuck her right arm out, summoning forth a sword in another flash of light, and proceeded to have the blade go up against the boy's neck, much to his surprise as he gasped slightly.
"Whoa, hey…" the jinchuriki chimed in, while Korra jumped down from her seat, "Let's calm down for a sec…" he suggested, holding out his hands in a placating manner towards them.
"Do you really believe Natsu can be a good member for your team?" she asked the teen she was currently threatening with her weapon, having ignored the shinobi.
"Definitely," he responded, "He's got that fire that can really pull us through some tough spots," he told her, "And we're gonna make sure he gets stronger with us," he stated, grabbing the hilt of his own blade from the back of his belt, which the fire mage took notice of with widened and frightened eyes.
"Is that a challenge then?" Erza asked, narrowing her eyes.
"D-D-Don't do it, Gingka!" Natsu stammered in fear, "Erza's way stronger than you think she is!" he yelled out to him. However, the beyblader pulled out his weapon with his right hand, spinning it around before using it to knock the S-Class wizard's blade off of his neck, staring her down seriously while he had his weapon pointed at her, much to her surprise as she blinked.
"You dare point your blade at me?" she questioned with a menacing glare while everyone else in the guild looked on with shocked faces, having their mouths gape open.
"Heh," the spiky, red haired teen chuckled in response, "If the blade fits, Scarlet…" he quipped, causing everyone else to widen their eyes in shock, especially the fire dragon slayer as his body paled.
'AAAAAHHHH!' he screamed inwardly, 'Either this guy's the bravest man alive, or the dumbest!' he exclaimed through thought in realization, panicking greatly.

"Oh dear…" Mirajane muttered worriedly with a small grin while the rest of the guild members had frightened looks on their faces. They had seen the one known as Titania get challenged before, but not by someone other than the fire dragon slayer. Most of them had their mouths gaping open at the scene, unable to believe that a stranger who they just recently met was challenging one of their strongest members. Erza's expression turned from shock to anger as she gnashed her teeth together, tightening the grip on the hilt of her sword.
"In that case…" she began, glaring menacingly at Gingka while he didn't flinch, seeing her bringing her weapon up to him, "I'll defeat you for him!" she declared, attempting to strike with her blade. He blocked it with his own however, causing a burst of wind to fly throughout the area. Carla gasped as the image of the two clashing swords was the same one she had envisioned after they had first met the beyblader.
"H-H-Hey…" Natsu chimed in, stuttering nervously as he stood up from the floor, holding out his hands in a placating manner, "Don't I get a say in this?" he asked as a drop of sweat rolled down the side of his head.
"Why would you keep him down like this?!" the shaggy haired teen yelled to the requip wizard as their blades shook while still being intertwined, ignoring the plea from the fire dragon slayer, "He's strong enough to be on his own!" he mentioned angrily, gritting his teeth while he pushed her back slightly.
"He's… our friend!" she shouted in response, managing to hold her ground as her weapon was matching his, much to his surprise, "I'm not letting you take him away from Fairy Tail!" she stated fiercely.
"We're not trying to take him away!" the Team Omniverse member retorted, tightening the grip he had on the hilt of his weapon, "We wanna make him and the rest of your friends stronger!" he told her, "Why the hell don't you get that?!" he questioned angrily while the sound of metal sharpening could be heard from both weapons. Suddenly, something came between their blades, separating them with a clanging noise. They both widened their eyes to see that Naruto had done so with a kunai in his left hand, having used it to split their weapons apart as a few sparks flew off from them. On instinct, Ben immediately ran over and grabbed Gingka's left arm, pulling him away in a yelp while the shinobi pointed his armament at the one known as Titania in a threatening manner. She gnashed her teeth together angrily, about to lunge out again until she felt a hand come onto her right shoulder, enticing her to look back and see Gray behind her.
"Ease up, Erza!" he recommended while a few drops of sweat rolled down from the side of his head, "I don't think he's tryin' to split us up…" he admitted as she reluctantly lowered her arms. The beyblader growled before calming down, letting out a deep breath of air to relax himself while his team leader released him from his grasp.
"I think you might've misread that…" the Omnitrix bearer pointed out to the requip wizard in a blunt manner as he rubbed the back of his sheepishly, walking over to her. She tightened the grip on the hilt of her sword, making him flinch in realization while he froze, taking a quick step back.
"From what I heard," she began in a menacing tone, "you want to take Natsu from our team to become a part of yours..." she muttered as her expression darkened, much to the fright of the others around her.
"Uh… you're half right…" the Team Omniverse leader replied, glancing off to the side nervously, "Like we said," he continued to say, "we wanna help your guild, too," he told her, along with the rest of the people within the guild, "We just want Natsu to help us out around the multiverse," he finished explaining.
"It does sound like fun!" Happy confessed, chiming into the conversation.
"But you're stealing him from our guild!" the scarlet haired girl shouted angrily, redrawing her blade, "I won't let you take him!" she declared, pointing her weapon towards the brunette haired teen.
"Why am I bein' treated like a prize here…?" the fire dragon slayer muttered in question, sighing deeply. His exasperated groan caught the attention of the tall, red haired teen, who had his teeth gnash together angrily before he turned his focus onto the requip mage.
"We're not tryin' to steal him from your guild, you stupid-!" His remark was interjected as Korra instantly ran over and covered his mouth with her left hand, preventing him from speaking any further. Unfortunately, Erza interpreted what about to come out of his lips as her eyebrow twitched in rage.
"You little…!" she grumbled angrily, tightening her grip on the hilt of her sword as it trembled in her hand. The jinchuriki standing before her stood his ground, but let a drop of nervous sweat roll down the side of his head as he readied himself. The one known as Titania was about to lunge out towards him, but stopped once she took notice of Makarov approaching.
"That's enough, Erza," he advised, putting his hands together behind his back, "I don't think our guests have any ill intentions when regarding Natsu…" he admitted to her.
"Master?" she uttered in a surprised and confused tone, raising an eyebrow towards him. He then turned to face the Team Omniverse members as Naruto put his kunai away, staring at them in a serious manner.
"I understand that all you want is to have Natsu as a part of your team," he began to them, "but keep in mind that he has this guild to worry about as well," he mentioned, folding his arms over his chest, "And as you can probably tell," he continued, glancing over to see the guild members aside from the fire dragon slayer having somewhat skeptical looks on their faces, "not everyone here trusts you completely…" he pointed out, making them all look down in realization, grimacing a little. The spiky haired teen was surprised by his new friends' combined reactions, developing a serious expression on his own face, running up to the guildmaster.
"I trust 'em, Gramps!" he suddenly stated, much to the surprise of his guild mates while the old man looked over at him with a raised eyebrow, "Sure, we only just met these guys today…" he confessed, glancing over at them as they blinked out of shock, "but they're definitely not bad guys!" he yelled, turning back to his friends, "Don't ya think so, too?" he inquired to them. After a moment, everyone nodded in agreement, including the requip wizard as she had to admit, there were no hostilities between her and the strangers prior to their introduction.
"Exactly," Gingka concurred as he trotted over, "And if your friend trusts us enough," he continued, placing his left hand on his new pal's right shoulder, catching his attention, "then please let him join our team," he pleaded politely. The fire dragon slayer was slightly stunned for a second, but then smiled, turning his attention back onto the scarlet haired mage who forbade him from working alongside the group in the first place.
"Come on, Erza," he begged, putting his hands together, "Lemme' team up with these guys!" he demanded, hoping that she would say yes. A moment of silence passed as the S-class wizard closed her eyes in thought, folding her arms over her breastplate. She then reopened them as her pink haired teammate gulped, hopeful that she would allow for him to do what he desired.
"No," she said, much to the surprise of everyone else as they all gasped, "I'm sorry, but I can't trust these people," she stated, looking over at them. Natsu sighed and slouched over in defeat, making the shaggy haired teen blink at him in shock before he clenched his teeth together angrily, glaring towards the requip user.
"Huh…" Makarov groaned in a defeated tone, "I suppose it can't be helped…" he grumbled, turning towards the beyblader, "Gingka, was it?" he guessed, getting a simple nod in reply from him, "If you want to have Natsu as a part of your team," he began to say, "you'll need to defeat Erza in a battle," he told him, much to his and the others' surprise, "As you can see," he kept going, "she's the only one who doesn't appear to trust you with Natsu," he noted, glancing over at her. The Team Omniverse member blinked for a second before sheathing his sword back into its hilt, making it click once it went in fully.
"That's fine," he replied, trotting towards her as he placed his hands in his pockets, "After all," he continued, passing by her as she took a look at him, seeing a smirk gracing his lips, "if she thinks Natsu could beat me, then I'm sure she can…" he muttered sarcastically, walking right out of the guild hall without another word. Stunned, the fire dragon slayer's eyes trembled slightly before he shook his head, recomposing himself as he ran after him.
"Gingka, wait a sec!" he yelled, racing outside. The remaining people inside all looked on in shock at what had just conspired; some more so than others.
"Damn…" Gray uttered in disbelief, crossing his arms over his bare chest as he hadn't yet realized that his pants were missing once again.

Walking along the path that led to the guild, the beyblader had made it towards the arch just before the stone walkway. He was about to step onto the dirt road when his ears suddenly caught the sound of the doors opening, enticing him to turn around and see his new friend rushing towards him.
"Hold on, Gingka!" he cried out, halting himself at the archway, standing beside him as he took a quick breath of air, "Do you really wanna go up against Erza for me to be a part of your team?" he questioned in somewhat rhetorical manner.
"That's the plan," the shaggy haired teen responded bluntly, much to his surprise as he blinked.
"Well, it's a dumb one!" he yelled back, causing him to flinch out of shock before he calmed down rather instantly, having a serious expression on his face, "Look," he started to say, "I wasn't kiddin' around when I said she was strong," he stated to him while at the doors of the edifice, Lucy, Gray, Wendy, Happy, Carla, Ben, Naruto, Rex, and Korra came outside, listening to their conversation from afar, "She's an S-class wizard after all!" he mentioned with his arms outstretched to their respective sides, "God knows how many times she's kicked my ass…" he muttered, glancing away out of shame as a small blush was on his cheeks. The others began trotting over as the Team Omniverse member let off a small grin, folding his arms across his chest.
"Well, what would you do if I insulted your friends?" he asked rhetorically, much to his surprise as he gasped slightly, widening his eyes in realization, "I'm not about to let anyone put me and my teammates down just because we're strangers to you guys," he declared, clenching his fists. Natsu's eyes trembled slightly out of astonishment, but then he started to smile, having understood the beyblader's desire.
"Yeah," he agreed with a simple nod, chuckling a little.
"Hey," a feminine voice chimed in, catching their attentions as they turned to see the celestial mage approaching them with everyone else, "are you absolutely nuts?!" she asked Gingka hysterically, waving her arms around in a comical manner, "This is Erza we're talking about!" she added, placing her hands at her hips.
"So?" the shaggy haired teen questioned in reply, raising an eyebrow while he tilted his head.
"SO?!" the blonde haired girl exclaimed out of shock, being taken aback by the guest's inability to take the situation he was in seriously.
"What's so scary about that Erza chick by the way?" the evo questioned, folding his arms behind his head as he changed the subject of the conversation.
"She's practically got a hold on everyone in the guild 'cause she's really strong…" the ice mage answered, making him turn and let a drop of sweat roll down the side of his head while he saw that the onyx haired teen was in his boxers.
"Uh… dude?" he uttered, pointing down towards the only article of clothing the male beside him was wearing, enticing him to look down and gasp in shock.
"CRAP!" he yelled, frantically searching for his pants. He then felt something tap his left shoulder, causing him to turn and see the Avatar standing behind having his slacks draped over her left shoulder.
"Looking for these?" she guessed teasingly, chuckling a little as she handed them to him.
"Uh… thanks…" he responded out of embarrassment, taking his pants back from her as he blushed profusely, glancing away. Meanwhile, at the guild hall doors, Juvia watched on in jealousy, clenching the door so tightly with her left hand out of rage, it began to crack.
"Erza's magic is no joke either," Happy chimed in with a raised paw, catching the attentions of the others, "I bet her requips are stronger than anything you've ever seen!" he mentioned as he shivered in fright from remembrance.
"'Requip'?" the jinchuriki said out of confusion, tilting his head to the side.
"It's the magic that Erza uses," the sky dragon slayer replied as she had her hands clasped together behind her back, "She uses it to summon swords and all kinds of weapons for battle," she explained to him and the other Team Omniverse members.
"And hers is especially unique," the white furred exceed added, "She can don different types of armors during a fight and cripple her opponents with them," she told them, crossing her paws over her chest. Gingka narrowed his eyes as he recalled seeing the scarlet haired wizard shine in a brilliant light before her Heart Kreuz armor appeared upon her form, along with the fact that she had brought forth a sword.
"She's sure scary…" the blue furred anthropomorphic animal muttered, shivering in fright.
"I'm not scared," the beyblader suddenly stated, much to everyone's surprise as their eyes widened, looking at him in shock, "Whether she's S-class, a requip wizard, or whatever…" he began, holding his right fist out to Natsu, who blinked in confusion, "I'll beat her and get you on the team," he declared, smiling brightly. The fire dragon slayer chuckled in response after a moment, bumping his new friend's extremity with his own.
"Just don't go getting ahead of yourself, Gingka," the Omnitrix bearer advised, crossing his arms while he grinned. They then chatted away again, continuing the conversation about the battle to be for tomorrow. In the meantime, the shaggy haired teen's future opponent stood at the doorway to the guild, watching on with narrowed eyes towards him.
'What does he see in Natsu that I apparently can't?' she asked herself, turning around to head back inside, 'I'm sure I'll find out tomorrow…' she noted inwardly, taking one last glance at him and the others before entering the hall.

The next morning, everyone in the guild and the Team Omniverse members were at a large clearing on the outskirts of Magnolia; not too far from the building. Natsu, Lucy, Gray, Wendy, Happy, Carla, Ben, Naruto, Rex, and Korra were standing together as a group on one side of the field, with the former of them all having a nervous grimace plastered upon his face while he looked over to see the two future fighters staring each other down, distanced about a dozen yards apart as a sudden breeze rushed throughout the area. Makarov, Mirajane, Lisanna, Elfman, Cana, Juvia, Gajeel, Levy, Lily, Macao, Romeo, Wakaba, Bisca, Alzack, Laki, Max, Nab, Reedus, Vijeeter, Jet, and Droy were there as well, awaiting the bout to be. Another gust of wind blew by, causing the hair of both battlers to sway around for a moment.
"Not gonna lie…" the brunette haired boy began, catching the attentions of those around him, "I'm a little nervous…" he confessed.
"Aren't we all…" the white furred exceed retorted, looking back at the battlefield, "The only one who'd be daft enough to challenge Erza in the first place would be Natsu," she explained bluntly, causing the fire dragon slayer in question to cringe in remembrance.
"Well, Gingka's no slouch," the Avatar chimed in, folding her arms over her chest as she got their attention, "I've seen him do a lot of amazing things as a teammate," she mentioned, narrowing her eyes onto the battlefield.
"Same," the jinchuriki agreed with a simple nod, "Besides," he continued, making the Fairy Tail members with him perk up, "I don't think he showed Natsu everything he can do in their fight," he pointed out, causing them to all widen their eyes in surprise.
"Seriously?!" the ice mage exclaimed, turning his focus back onto the battlefield, "But then again…" he kept going, "Gingka barely knows a thing about what Erza's capable of…" he noted, letting a drop of nervous sweat roll down the side of his head.
"I wouldn't worry 'bout him, hermano," the evo reassured, folding his arms behind his head while the onyx haired teen raised an eyebrow towards him, "Dude's been pretty adaptable over the years," he told him, letting a little chuckle escape his lips.
"Adaptable?" the celestial wizard questioned, completely perplexed as she raised an eyebrow.
"You'll see," the Omnitrix bearer promised, catching her attention as she glanced back at him for a moment, and then turned her focus back onto the two fighters, who were ready to brawl. As the beyblader unsheathed his snake sword from its hilt, his opponent summoned a single one in flash of light, grabbing it with her right hand. She then pointed it towards her foe, staring out at him seriously.
"I don't plan on losing," she stated, getting herself into a ready stance. A small scoff escaped the shaggy haired teen's lips before he began smirking, also preparing himself for battle.
"Neither do I," he declared in response, holding his weapon in his right hand as well. Another moment of complete silence passed by as the two stared each other down for what felt like an eternity. However, as another gust of wind raced by, so too did they, charging towards each other with a common drive to emerge victorious.
END
And so the battle begins! Who'll come out on top for the battle between the Queen of Fairies and the Pegasus Warrior?! But before we go into the next chapter for that, it's time to go back into our ever so famous Q&A session!
Enjoy!
Q&A
TerrorKing10: Ben, what ever happened between you and Hinata to cause you two to break up?
Rook: Oh dear…
Hinata: *glances away in shame*
Ben: *sighs deeply* Me and Hinata weren't always gonna be together… It's just that we ended our relationship a little early after that Albedo and Khyber fiasco…
Hinata: Ben's a great guy… And he always supports me when it comes to Naruto…
Korra: Still, your break up really changed things…
Ben: Please don't remind me…
TerrorKing10: Rainbow, what was it like when you and Ben first met?
Cana: Ooh… sorry, TerrorKing10. That little chick's not in this story. Ergo, she's not here now…
Ben: Knock it off, Cana. Anyways, I first met Rainbow after she accidentally kicked her soccer ball at me and I had to catch it…
Rook: From what Ben had said, he and she somewhat didn't get along at first…
Ben: But things worked out in the end, as you can tell from now.
Cana: *slyly* And what if things didn't work out?
Ben: *blushes slightly* Wh-What?
TerrorKing10: Sunset, do you ever get homesick for Equestria?
Rook: Unfortunately, Sunset is not here at the moment like Rainbow… However, I know that she does feel homesick for her former home… especially regarding making amends with her friends.
TerrorKing10: Ash, how did it feel to lose to CAMERON of all trainers in the Unova league?
Ash: *drop of sweat rolls down the side of his head* It… wasn't that bad…
Gingka: You lost to a guy who only brought five Pokémon to a full battle…
Ash: Okay, it was bad… *slouches over in shame*
Pikachu: Pika pi…
Mirajane: Oh, Ash… *goes over to comfort him*
TerrorKing10: Korra, how would you describe your "special" relationship with Asami?
Korra: *blushes slightly* Special? Wh-What do you mean…?
Juvia: Korra? Are you and this Asami person…? *nosebleeds slightly*
Korra: Wh-What?! *blushes madly* Wait a sec! Th-That's not what I-!
NegaiFreak: I got this. Korra and Asami's relationship isn't canon by the time of this story. But by the time the Fairy Tail members find out during the Alvarez Empire Arc, Juvia's in full support of her. There's also a very funny scene regarding Lyon trying to swoon her.
ImmaSupa Stargirl: Rex, has Applejack been on your mind since "Rainy Day"?
Rex: *blushes slightly* To be honest… Not that much since then…
Ben: *smirks* He's gotten a little sidetracked since his break-up with Kuvira…
Rex: *angrily* Hey!
SpiritReaper42: Everyone, what are your reactions to Solid Snake VS Sam Fisher?
Ben: Another battle? *shrugs* Well, all right then…
-Everyone watches the battle unfold-
Korra: Whoa!
Gray: Talk about cutting it close… Literally…
Erza: That was quite impressive… I wonder if I should have an armor with camouflage uses… *starts to think about it*
SpiritReaper42: Gingka & Erza, final challenge? Who would win this one? Captain America or Master Chief?
Gingka: This one's for all the marbles, huh?
Erza: *chuckles* Indeed it is. I'll choose Master Chief.
Gingka: And I'll go for Captain America.
Mirajane: Well, it's time to see who'll win it all! *rings bell* Let the final battle begin!
-Everyone watches the battle-
Erza: Uh… *trembles in disbelief*
Gingka: *smirks* Looks like I've won, Erza. *holds his right hand out to her* Good game.
Erza: *blinks in surprise before smiling, accepting his hand* It certainly was.
-The others all clap in applause-
Ash: Phew… I could've sworn it was gonna get worse…
SpiritReaper42: Ash, before you start singing with Mirajane, I got one question. If you ever did battle Red, would you use your Charizard to face his Charizard, considering that both of them were able to beat legendary Pokémon?
Ash: Sure! I always like a battle like that!
Pikachu: Pika!
Gajeel: Hey, junior. *elbows his shoulder* Ya gonna start that song yet?
Ash: *instantaneously blushes* Uh… wh-why don't we wait until the end?
Pikachu: *sighs* Pika…
Mirajane: That's okay! It'll be more fun by then!
SpiritReaper42: Elfman, what is your manly training routine?
Elfman: As a real man, I practice as much as I can with push-ups and crunches every day! I also do squats for good measure. *stands proudly*
Lisanna: That's our brother for you… *laughs nervously*
Mirajane: *giggles in agreement*
SpiritReaper42: Juvia, on a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate your love relationship with Gray?
Juvia: It's an absolute ten! *jumps towards Gray* My love for my darling knows no bounds!
Gray: Ah! *gets tackled by her* Ugh…
Juvia: *snuggles into him with a comfortably content look on her face*
Lucy: I'd give their relationship a six right now… *crosses arms* Gray seems to be getting used to her…
SpiritReaper42: Ben, how come nobody knows about your fear of clowns?
Ben: *blinks in surprise before smacking himself in the face* Well, now they do!
Cana: *laughs aloud* You're afraid of clowns?! Ha!
Rook: Please do not taunt him with that fact…
Hinata: *nervously* H-He's a little oversensitive about it…
Ben: Hey!
Cana: Oh, relax. *turns to Ben* If anything, I always thought he was scared of sexy girls like me. *winks at him*
Ben: *blushes madly* I-I have a pretty cool girlfriend ya know…
SpiritReaper42: Ash & Pikachu, was it really that fun to mess with others as ghosts after both of you died years ago? You know when you were searching for a ghost to beat Sabrina.
Lucy: Wait, you died?!
Ash: *rubs back of his neck sheepishly* Eh, kinda… I guess it was fun at first to mess with Brock and Misty as ghosts, but we knew that we couldn't do it forever.
Pikachu: *nods in agreement* Pika pi.
Mirajane: That sounds like quite the experience. *smiles at them brightly*
Lucy: *shocked* YOU BELIEVE THEM?!
SpiritReaper42: Naruto, I don't understand one thing. You have done a lot of things in your life, even defeating Pain, but you kept losing to Sasuke. What's the deal? Especially since you did some things he couldn't do.
Naruto: Hey, I lost an arm to beat Sasuke the last time! *shows off his bandaged, prosthetic right arm* He beat me because he was so… motivated to get power…
Hinata: Naruto…
SpiritReaper42: Korra, how does it feel to be the next Avatar?
Korra: Awesome! It's been quite the ride so far…
Gray: I'll bet…
SpiritReaper42: Mirajane, how long have you been running the bar for Fairy Tail?
Mirajane: I volunteered ever since… well…
Ash: Mira…
Mirajane: I'm okay, Ash. *takes a deep breath* Anyways, I've loved working behind the counter! It helps me get to know people better. *smiles brightly*
SpiritReaper42: Gajeel, out of all the dragon slayers that you know, who is a better opponent for you? You can punch the person of your answer and get away with it.
Gajeel: Out of all the dragon slayers, huh? Well, I ain't tusslin' with a little one like Wendy, or an idiot like Salamander…
Natsu: *angrily* Hey!
Gajeel: So I guess that leaves-
-Laxus, Evergreen, Bickslow, and Freed enter-
Laxus: Me, right?
Gajeel: *cringes as he turns around to see Laxus* Uh… yeah…
Laxus: *glares at him menacingly* Try it.
Gajeel: *sweats nervously* Uh…
Levy: Gajeel?
Lily: *sighs deeply* Oh dear…
Ash: Whoa. *blinks in surprise*
SpiritReaper42: Natsu, do you tend to be that illiterate? *whispers to everyone except for Natsu* If he knows what that means...
Natsu: Illituh-what now? *tilts head out of confusion*
Erza: *sighs* I've tried teaching him how to read and write better, but he insists on learning by himself…
Natsu: That's because yer too scary…
Erza: *glares at him* What was that?
Natsu: *panics* N-NOTHING MA'AM!
SpiritReaper42: Rex, can you say one sentence in Spanish?
Rex: Sure! Creo que Ben y Cana son una pareja hecha en el cielo .
Ben: Wait, what?
Cana: *smirks* Sounds like somebody thinks we oughta' be together…
Ben: *blushes* Wait, what?!
SpiritReaper42: Pikachu, how does it feel to battle a Regice and win?
Pikachu: Pika! Pika pi, pika chu!
Ash: It was definitely amazing! *pats Pikachu on the head* And it sure proves just how strong my little buddy is!
Pikachu: Cha~!
SpiritReaper42: Happy, what type of fish do you enjoy eating?
Happy: All kinds! I can eat any fish! *starts drooling*
Carla: That has to be unhealthy…
Lily: More like unappealing…
SpiritReaper42: Erza, do you always get so nuts about seeing blades and armor you never even seen before?
Erza: Of course! Seeing the complexity of such weapons and armor… *glances over at Rook* Like his armor for example! *eyes sparkle upon viewing it*
Rook: Uh… thank you, Erza…
SpiritReaper42: Rook, is there anything your Proto-Tool can't do?
Rook: Definitely a few things that I cannot name off at the moment… *transforms it into an energy sword* But it can always pull off impressive feats.
Ben: *chuckles* True there, partner.
SpiritReaper42: Gingka, what type of stone you have for your Scizor to mega evolve?
Gingka: My Scizor has to have the Scizorite in order to mega evolve. Of course, I also have to have my Key Stone, too.
reaper27: Hey, Natsu, have you ever heard yourself sing, because your voice actor Todd Haberkorn can sing? And if he can sing then I know you can sing. Natsu, maybe you can sing better than Gajeel.
Natsu: I haven't heard myself sing ever… But I bet I'm better than that metal head…
Gajeel: *angrily* What'd ya say, Salamander?! I could sing circles around you!
Natsu: *gets into his face* Dream on, freakshow! I can totally sing better than you!
Gajeel: Oh yeah?!
Levy: Uh, guys? Aren't Ash and Mira gonna be the ones to sing?
Ash: Uh… well… *nervously rubs the back of his head*
Korra: Don't tell us you're getting cold feet… Are you?
Ash: *blushes* N-No! It's just… I think it'd be better if we did it for the next chapter's Q&A… You know, to make it more interesting…
Mirajane: That sounds like a great idea! It'll be fun!
Lucy: Ah well… Guess we'll get to hear Ash and Mira's duet next time! See ya!
END Q&A
I love making cute moments in these Q&As! And now it's time to hit the rest of the scenario story provided by SpiritReaper42! Be sure to check out his stories for the future!
Enjoy!
SCENARIO
Spirit Reaper: *smirks and throws bracelet up high*
Gajeel: Huh?
Natsu: What the heck is he doin'?
-the bracelet breaks every single light bulb there is, making the place go dark-
Natsu: Ah!
Gajeel: Dammit! I can't see a thing!
Naruto: So he's using the dark to his advantage…
Korra: *raises an eyebrow* Why didn't he just use his scythe for that though?
Nightwing: Spirit doesn't always uses his scythe thanks to me. *puts on night vision goggles*
Korra: Huh?
Wendy: Wait a sec… I can't smell him!
Ash: What?
Spirit Reaper: *blends in the dark avoiding contact with Natsu and Gajeel*
Natsu: *sniffs around*
Gajeel: I'm not pickin' up a single scent…
Nightwing: His bracelets are meant for sealing his curse, but I managed to upgrade them. To gauntlets, daggers, katanas, you name it. Even combine two bracelets into a real good blade.
Rook: He can forge his own weapons with those bracelets?!
Ben: It's Equestrian magic, Rook. I'm not that surprised…
Tommy: Like having an ancient Murasama into a high frequency blade. And Raiden is a lot stronger and faster with the blade. Not even Spirit was able to beat him.
Erza: *crosses arms over breastplate* I would say so…
Juvia: *worriedly* Will Gajeel and Natsu be all right?
Spirit Reaper: *appears in front of Natsu and whacks him in the head with the scythe*
Natsu: AGH! *falls to the ground on his face*
Gajeel: What the heck?! Salamander, what-?!
Spirit Reaper: *teleports and stomps Gajeel in the head with both feet*
Gajeel: GAH! *hits the ground hard*
Levy: Gajeel!
Rex: So they couldn't sniff him out either…
Wendy: *places right hand on her chin* How does that work?
Ryu: Unlike Nightwing, Logan and Inuyasha can be able to sniff to know what's going on.
Korra: But what about the dragon slayers?
Natsu: Gr… *stands up and cloaks his right fist in flames* Lightning Flame Dragon Iron Fist!
Spirit Reaper: *teleports again*
Natsu: Dah! Dammit! Where'd ya go?!
Gajeel: *gets up* Stay focused! He's 'round here somewhere… *stands back to back with Natsu*
Tommy: And both us and Raiden don't need to see to know what's going on. *pulls out morpher* Just in case if things get really serious. It's Morphin Time!
Mirajane: What is that?
Tommy: DRAGONZORD! *morphs into the Green Ranger*
Ash: Whoa!
Gingka: Cool.
Erza: *eyes sparkling* How incredible!
Spirit Reaper: *gets caught in the green light* Damn it, Tommy...
Natsu & Gajeel: *both jump towards him* Found ya! *strike him together with their fists*
Spirit Reaper: Agh! *lands on both feet and turns bracelets into gauntlets to block Natsu's attack*
Natsu: *sniffs again* Ya ain't gettin' away from me this time! *cloaks arms in fire and lightning* Dragon Slayer Secret Arts! *swings arms back, combining both elements*
Wolverine: So the pink hair can smell where he is... I'm impressed...
Inuyasha: First time for anything like that... *yelps seeing his claws that close*
Wolverine: Not one word out of you, bub...
Naruto: Yikes…
Natsu: Flame Lotus… Exploding Lightning Blade! *strikes Spirit Reaper with flames and electricity*
Spirit Reaper: Ergh! *falls back first, but hops back up* So much for hiding... *lets his shadow go into pieces and summons ten clones*
Gajeel: Cloning, huh? Now this just got real interesting…
Raiden: But they can they find the real Spirit?
Ryu: That is something we do not know yet...
Spirit Reaper clones: *start fighting Natsu and Gajeel*
Gajeel: *punches one, causing it to dissipate instantly* Ya think this is gonna stop us, punk?!
Natsu: *strikes two clones away with his feet* These punks don't scare us!
Spirit Reaper: *uses magic to summon a red version of his favorite shirt before putting it on*
Ben: Uh, what?
Hinata: Why is just putting on that red shirt?
Inuyasha: Even though Spirit uses the same techniques, he is only doing those things with better strategy.
Lucy: *tilts head in confusion* Say what?
Tommy: Spirit's clones are not just for fighting, but for distracting his opponents.
Gray: I see… *notices Spirit Reaper* That he can get ready to finish Natsu and Gajeel off.
Nightwing: Is that why you're not wearing any pants, Gray?
Gray: 'Scuse me? *looks down and gasps to see that his pants disappeared* CRAP! *fumbles around for clothes*
Juvia: *clasps hands together* Oh, my darling Gray! What a hunk…
Korra: *laughs aloud*
Spirit Reaper: *puts on red headband and tightens it while watching the clones disappear*
Mirajane: What's with the headband?
Naruto: Looks pretty cool…
Ryu: I gave Spirit that headband.
Gajeel: Ya think coverin' that head o' yours is gonna save ya?! *charges towards him with Natsu*
Spirit Reaper: I don't think so... *stops both Natsu and Gajeel with his magic*
Gajeel: Guh… Huh?!
Natsu: Can't… move! *grimaces in realization*
Spirit Reaper: *pulls right hand forcing Gajeel to come closer*
Gajeel: Wha-?! Hey, what gives?! *tries to move his own body to no avail*
Nightwing: And here it comes...
Wolverine: This is my favorite part...
Lily: Gajeel, look out!
Spirit Reaper: *puts bracelets on and turns them into gauntlets before giving Gajeel a triple punch combo*
Gajeel: GAH!
Levy: Oh no! Gajeel!
Spirit Reaper: Shoryuken! *sends him away with a jumping uppercut before putting hands together* Hadoken! *shoots another fireball at him*
Gajeel: Ugh… *falls to the ground, grimacing in pain*
Lucy: Uh oh…
Rex: Gajeel…
Raiden: Spirit may be the only person in Team Spirit to come up with lots of strategy. That's why he's the leader.
Inuyasha: No doubt about that...
Natsu: Gajeel! *uses strength to free himself from Spirit Reaper's control* I'm not done! *charges forward* Lightning Flame Dragon… *immerses right fist in lightning and flames* FIRING HAMMER! *strikes Spirit Reaper with a gigantic torrent of fire and electricity*
Spirit Reaper: GAH! *use scythe to stop his fall* Forgot about Natsu...
Natsu: *leaps towards him* And now to finish it!
Spirit Reaper: *punches him in the stomach and damages him with the scythe*
Natsu: Guh… *falls to the ground on his face*
Happy: Natsu!
Lucy: Oh no… *places hands over her mouth worriedly*
Tommy: Spirit does know his way of learning karate and use of weaponry.
Rook: He is quite skilled…
Spirit Reaper: So, Natsu... *puts him down and puts scythe next to him sideways* Ever played hockey?
Natsu: *lifts head up from the ground* What…?
Spirit Reaper: *smirks* Too bad... Because you're dealing with the best player! And you're the hockey puck! *swings scythe and whacks Natsu away*
Natsu: *spins around* WAAAHHH!
Korra: Whoa!
Ben: He actually hit him away like a puck…!
Nightwing: He isn't lying though. While growing up in Equestria, he enjoys playing hockey. He wins plenty of trophies.
Naruto: No kidding…
Natsu: *stands back up as his fiery electrical aura disappears* Gr… You've been givin' us quite the run…
Gajeel: *gets on his feet* Yeah… *rubs right arm in pain* But we ain't done yet…
Spirit Reaper: So I guess my attacks weren't enough, since your forms are stronger... *puts bracelets back on, but opens his box as well* Then you're both worthy enough to see my true form!
Natsu & Gajeel: *both widen their eyes in surprise*
Erza: So he's resorting to that now…
Lucy: Resorting to what?
Ryu: He is going to use his Equestrian magic...
Spirit Reaper: *puts rings on his fingers* Generosity, Honesty, Laughter, Kindness, Loyalty, and Magic...
Gajeel: What kinda crap is this?
Natsu: Dunno… *gets into a battle stance with him* But let's get ready!
Spirit Reaper: Get ready for the magic of friendship! *activates full Equestrian magic form*
Happy: Whoa…
Wendy: Oh, wow…
Raiden: This will get intense...
Spirit Reaper: Alright, let's rock it! Time for Spirit Reaper to be the Reaper!
Gajeel: Bring it!
