Hey guys! Thanks for the reviews! You have NO idea how happy it makes me to see these ^^, every time I see them I just, ya know, wanna write another chapter :D
Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach or Fairy Tail, though I wish I did.
(Summary)
What happens when a new quest appears on Fairy Tail's job board and it grows rapidly in rank? What will this lead to? Follow the Fairy Tail gang through a crazy quest, meeting, and battle! (And for those of you who don't know this is slightly AU and has most nothing to do with the actual storyline of Fairy Tail)
"Thinking"
"Talking"
And with that, enjoy!
(Last time)
The answer never came, verbally anyway; but every mage felt the ground shake beneath them as a scream-like roar echoed through the forest and a plume of black smoke rose, not too far from where they were located.
Chapter 4
A knowing glance was passed along the circle of mages, and the authorization needed was given by Erza with a nod of the head. And they were off, each of them running quickly, but not so that they would get separated, for each of them knew they would have the best chance together. A unanimous thought flickered through all of their minds in the same moments with different tones, ranging from nervous to excited, 'Here we come.'
The trees became less and less thickly gathered as the guild members made their way to the edge of the forest, within time they receded into the thin line that separated the ground from the sky, the group was in the canyon now.
Almost as soon as Erza, Natsu, Gray, Lucy, and Happy reached the canyon, they stopped. Not to admire the view, but because the entire reason for this trip, the entire reason Macau was badly injured and so many villagers were left homeless and broken, was standing before them on a nearby plateau.
The creature stood nearly 8 ft tall, its skin, if that's what you could call it, was pure white. Using the word pure to describe this monster, however, couldn't possibly be further from the truth. Its golden irises seemed to swim in an everlasting pool of sinister darkness, perfectly framed by the blood colored streaks on its mask. The pointy horns jutted out wickedly from the ginger mane that swayed down its back. The creature was very muscular with a well defined physique, probably from all of the exercise it had gotten from destroying all of those towns. Just beneath the bottom of the mane, a lizard-ish tail lashed back and forth, much like that of a hungry predator approaching its kill. In its dagger-like claws, the beast gripped a giant, black sword that resembled that of a large cleaver, But it's most distinguishing feature was the fist-sized hole in its chest. With that kind of injure it should be dead! Or at least bleeding heavily, yet the creature seemed entirely unbothered by crippling wound.
The beast turned its head toward them, as if it had only just now noticed their existence. As its stare lingered on them the gravity seemed to collect and weigh itself on the Fairy Tail mages, growing heavier and heavier, lowering them to the ground, they could almost see the streaks in the air. Lucy, unable to take the strain of the pressure currently weighing them to the ground, had passed out and was now laying motionlessly on the flat stone top of the canyon, Happy, though still awake was in similar condition. Erza was pushed to her knees, she would not allow herself to go any further, this creature needed to be taken care of, she had taken the job, and as such she must carry it out. Not for herself, and definitely not for the reward money. Erza was doing this for all of the people this creature had injured and left without a home to come to.
She looked over to see Natsu and Gray still standing under the weight, although it was more of an awkward squat, nonetheless, still standing, still fighting on. The monster, after many moments of silence, let out an earsplitting scream-like roar as a small ball of red began to grow in between the horns on the its head. 'He's using 2 magics at once? T-that's near impossible' thought Erza, using most of her energy to keep herself off the ground.
The creature adjusted its aim till it was looking straight at Natsu and Gray. It didn't take long at all for the ball of magic to grow the size of a volleyball, and that's all that was needed. The magic was released, full blast. Without even thinking about it Erza leaped at the two boys and pushed them out of the way, the glowing sphere just missing them as hurtled past them at tremendous speeds. The impact of the armor-clad redhead had sent the 2 mages rolling as well as her along with them. Erza looked up from her spot on the ground to see the plateau they had just been standing on was gone; all that was left was a small pile of charred rubble. She glanced over to see the other two guild members beside her, they for the most part unwounded save a few scratches from the initial tackle the requip mage had just administered, it was however, better than the alternative, had that attack hit its target they'd be dead.
Slowly, the boys lifted themselves to their feet, still under the pressure, though not quite as heavy as it had been. "Natsu, Gray, Do you think you can get those two out of here?" Erza questioned glancing over to where Lucy and Happy lay; just enough out of the way that they hadn't been harmed, but still too close for Erza's own comfort.
The two nodded and heavily trudged their way towards the unconscious party. Now it was her time, Erza turned ready to face the beast, at least long enough for the weaker members to escape. As she craned her head to perceive the white menace all she saw another ball of red, the same magic from earlier; and it was flying straight at her.
