Chapter 4
Void Kingdom, Halls
"Getting tired, snow cone?" Natsu said trying to push Gray back with his head.
"You wish!" Gray replied also trying to push him back.
Cana and Lucy were struggling to get a hit in on Tigha. She kept on lifting and deflecting Cana's wind and lightning and Taurus. Taurus fell on his knee as he returned to his key
"Nothing's working!" Cana said going for another card.
"Let's try someone else then! Open! Gate of the Water Bearer! Aquarius!" Lucy pulled out a key that summoned a mermaid like person with blue hair.
"So now you decide to call me out of all times? You're pathetic." Aquarius said insulting Lucy.
"Ah! Come on! I called you just to help me with something!"
"Well maybe you need to do a better job at what you're doing." Aquarius said twirling her water cup around.
"Gah! Quit being so rude and help already before I put you back in!"
"Watch your mouth missy!" Aquarius swung her cup around as she let out a huge wave of water that went towards Natsu, Tigha and Gray. Natsu and Gray were both hit by the wave, however Tigha put four fingers up.
"Arc of Force! Friction!" Tigha reduced the force of the wave, making it stop right in front of her. She held her arm as she felt a shock.
"Friction always taxes me at a high rate each time I use it."
Gray and Natsu got up from the water as they stared each other down.
"Ice Make Knuckle!" Gray casted a multiple ice fists that struck Natsu's face, sending him flying into Tigha. Cana then sent a lightning strike onto the two of them. Natsu endured the pain as he let out a burst of flames that blew away the lightning.
Natsu roared in anger as he slammed his fist onto the ground, causing a pillar of flames to rise up everywhere in the halls.
"Lucy! Cana! Go ahead! I'll handle these two!"
"Alright! Good luck Gray! And put your clothes on!" Cana shouted as she and Lucy ran into the next room up ahead.
"Its just us and you!" Natsu sent a cutting wave of flames towards Gray. Gray rolled out of the way as the flames cut the ground and pillars in half.
At the Balcony
Jet and the others had arrived at the Kingdom's balcony, only to be met by Alehot who was standing there with his arms crossed.
"Going somewhere Fairy Tail?"
"Alehot Wargrin?! I thought you were dead?" Makarov said with a shocked face.
"Oh but I survived Makarov. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. So, you're here for your precious Erza Scarlet are you?"
"You of all people should know that a guild member is always with their friends and family at all costs."
"Oh I know. However, Natsu is a soon to be emperor. So anything he sees and takes he will have." Alehot said walking forward to the group.
"Come on gramps! Lets blow him away!" Elfman said stepping forward.
"Try it." Alehot said. His eye's sparked with flames around them as He put one hand out.
"Ten Spells of the Flaming Gods. 1st Spell. Agni!" Alehot shouted out. A projectile of flames flew towards the group. The heat of the flames were 1000 degrees.
"Look out!" Jet and the rest of the guild scattered to avoid the flames. Each flame hit the walls and grounds, burning them and destroying them at the same time.
Jet ran towards Alehot, going in for a flurry of punches. Alehot swayed his head to the side dodging Jet's fists. He then kneed Jet's gut, whacking his jaw next, sending him flying into a mirror. Makarov made both his hands large as he thrusted them towards Alehot.
"2nd Spell! Nusku!" Alehot made giant flaming arms on his back. The arms caught Makarov's burning them and making him scream.
"Gramps!" Levy wrote in the air, using a spell. "Solid Script! Iron!" The word "Iron" had appeared with metal features dropping onto Alehot. He jumped back avoiding the metal as it crashed through the floor. Alehot then used his flaming hands to let out a flurry. Each punch sent out a wave of flames at everyone. Levy put up a guard in front to defend.
The flames however broke through the guard, knocking everyone back. Alehot raised both his real hands and flames hands, creating a gigantic fireball. The heat of it began to make everyone in the room hot.
"Wind Edge!" A wave of wind was sent towards Alehot, pushing him back and making the fireball vanish. Cana and Lucy had arrived to the ballroom.
"How frustrating."
Inside Natsu's room
"I'm getting out of here now." Erza smashed her body onto the door over and over again until she finally broke through. A guard noticed her from the right side as he ran towards her.
"Stop right there!" The guard called out pulling out a spear.
"Out of my way!" Erza shouted as she kicked the guards jaw. She then grabbed the guard's spear and smashed his gut with the edge of the spear. The castle began to shake due to the battle with the kingdom and Fairy Tail.
"They're really going at it. I need to find them now." Erza ran off to the south, heading towards the Ballroom.
Back at the halls Natsu and Gray were still continuing their fight. Natsu kicked Gray high into the air as he then followed up with a fire dragon roar. Gray was burned as he crashed onto the ground. Tigha used her lift manipulation to lift Gray into the air, holding him there. Natsu leaped up as he kicked Gray's chest with flames bursting out of his back. Gray screamed in pain as Natsu continued with a flurry of kicks. Before Natsu could get one last hit in, Elfman crashed through the walls, flying and hitting both Natsu and Gray making them both crash into a wall. Jet, Cana and Levy jumped back from Alehot's continuous barrage of flames. Both Cana and Levy were heavily damaged. Levy' skirt was half torn as she had some bruises and burn marks on her thighs, as for Cana her jacket was burned off leaving only her bra and trousers.
Gray got up by sending Natsu flying into the air with an ice make knuckle. Alehot prepared to slam his flaming fists onto Lucy who was down on the ground, however Erza had stopped him by slashing the spear on his back. Alehot gritted his teeth as a scar was left on his back with his flames disappearing. Erza then spun the spear around going for a jab. Alehot grabbed the handle of the spear as he then slammed Erza onto Lucy, knocking her back. Erza kept holding the spear as she did a backflip kick onto Alehot's jaw. Alehot was unphased by the hit as he headbutted Erza to the ground. He prepared to stab her, however Jet stopped him by latching onto his arm.
"Get off you!" Alehot tried to shake Jet off of him.
"Ice Make Cannon!" Gray sent a huge cannon ball of ice towards Natsu, hitting his gut and sending him crashing into Alehot making them both hit a mirror. Alehot and Natsu both got up with a flame aura surrounding them.
"We came for what we needed. We have Erza back. Let's just focus on getting out of here!" Makarov said growing into a large size.
"Alright! You heard gramps, lets go!" Gray said as he Jet and the others ran south, towards the door to the outside.
"Don't let them escape!" Alehot prepared a wave of flames as he ran forward. Makarov stopped him by stomping on the floor, making Natsu and Alehot jump with the ground letting out rocks that stood up. Tigha attempted to stop them with a lift, however Erza knocked her out by smashing the edge of the spear onto the side of her head. Makarov then punched the ceiling making a huge chunk of it fall down, blocking Natsu and Alehot. Makarov returned to his normal size as Jet grabbed a hold of him like a baby and ran off with the others. Fairy Tail eventually exited out of the kingdom, breaking through the gates and heading towards the forest, leading to Hargeon. Natsu let out a huge burst of flames that broke the ceiling rubble as he yelled in anger.
"Damn it! They got away with my pet! I'll get them!"
"Forget it Natsu. We still have the orb. It matters not that they got away. But still, they are a big problem for us. I believe there is one new thing we must do."
"What's that?"
"Start an alliance. We'll call it the Baram alliance. I know a few dark guilds that would join us. Oracion Seis, Grimoire Heart and Tartaros. We'll make sure that we overwhelm Fairy Tail next time."
