Chapter 6: The Meaning Of Glory

Let POV:

I can't believe what I am smelling. This is his scent. Jegan. He shouldn't even be alive, yet I can tell that he is. I look over my shoulder to see Haru. I'm not surprised. He must be wanting to try and stop me, then again I know he won't stop me. I then see why he is trying to get to where I am. There is another boy that seems to also be targeting Jegan. My eyes narrow, and I keep running, faster this time. Haru must have known that the boy was there, and what he was up to. Knowing me, he probably assumed I would target the boy. I would. I don't want anything getting in my way. Jegan is a dead man.

Soon I stop as I see him. The other boy also stops. I then notice something different about him. He has fire over his hands, and he has the sent of that of a dragon. I have a feeling then that he wants to know something from us, since we are ones of the dragon race. Haru stops next to me and says something into my ear. I nod, this time thinking help to beat Jegan is not a problem. Both of us get into a position then attack. Haru makes a fake attack, to distract Jegan while I come from above and hit him on the head. It worked for he most part until he swung his sword at Haru, and knocked him into a building. I saw the other boy get even madder. He ran forward and punched Jegan in the gut with his fire fist. I was surprised by how strong the punch was. It threw Jegan into another one of the buildings.

His eyes were like dragons. I could tell that something had snapped in him. I wondered what, but didn't ask since I had to make sure that Haru wasn't hurt. I knew that if he got killed Musica and Elie would both be at my throat about it. I found him, safe, just unconscious at the moment. I sighed in relief and turned back to Jegan who was once more on his feet. Something was off about him. He wasn't standing right. That's when I noticed a marking on his neck. It was something I never thought I would see. I had once seen it when a book fell out of one of the elder's libraries. I had read about it. It was a seal to bring the dead back to life.

That meant Jegan was dead, and this was just his un-dead body that I was fighting. That would make sense as to how there was a hole in his chest, and why he wasn't talking about something while we were fighting. He wasn't even really there. It was just his body. I knew that when you brought someone back from the dead it was ether the soul or the body, not both. There was no sure way to bring back both soul and body. My breath then stiffened as something hit me in the back of my neck. I didn't see what before I hit the ground. The world then darkened, and everything vanished from my sight.

Haru POV:

My eyes open to darkness. I wonder where I am, but I do not wonder it for long. I soon see the last person I would ever want to see. He smirks when he sees that I am awake. I hold 10 powers tightly in my hand, and open my mouth to speak. Nothing comes out or my mouth. It seems that I can't speak. I frown, and stare at him. I wonder why he hasn't tried to attack me yet, and soon I see why. This is nothing more than an illusion that is clouding my senses. The real fight, the one that is not what I am seeing is beyond this. I have no idea as to how I am to break through this illusion. This is only the second time I have faced someone using illusions. The first time was Lance, and this time I am not sure who is the one using them. I slowly took a step foreword, but something stopped me. I looked behind me, and my eyes darkened.

"Father?" I whispered, seeing him behind me, holding me back. He looked up, a smile on his face.

"Haru…I found you…finally…after all of this time…" He whispered.

My eyes were wide. He was dead. I knew he was. He had died protecting me…so then how was he alive right now? "Father…how…how are you here?" I whispered. I felt my eyes start to water.

He smiled at me, with that goofy grin of his. "What are you talking about? I was looking for you and I found you. Now I have to ask why you aren't out there fighting with you're friends. They need you're help Haru. And you don't know what this place is do you? It's an illusion zone. I managed to find you after all of this time. It's been a long time…I mean it took me this long to find you, and I find you here. Anyways. You need to hurry. Lucia has found a way to bring the dead back to life. He's using that to confuse all of you. Not to mention those dark mages are overpowering the mages from that place called Fairy Tail. They need help. You're friends need help. So hurry up. I'll be right beside you son. So, don't worry."

I smiled, and nodded. "Alright dad…" I whispered. Soon enough I found myself where I had been thrown into a building. I got up, wincing slightly. I pulled 10 powers up from where it was lodged in the ground and went to where Jegan was. I saw Let unconscious on the ground, but I couldn't stop right then. I could see Natsu and Jegan fighting not to far off. I couldn't tell who was winning from where I was.

Those two are really going at it… I heard my dad comment. I couldn't see him, but I could feel him walking beside me.

I nodded. "Yeah they are. I wonder who is winning…"

You wont know until you get there. You should hurry to. Something bad may happen soon enough and you'll want this to be over by that time.

"I'm trying…" I muttered. "It's not that easy to fight a battle that you aren't sure that you can win Father…"

That's the problem then. If you don't believe that you can win, you wont win! I thought you were raised better than this Haru…did you forget what you're last name is?

"It's Glory," I replied. "…wait…glory…"

Yes that's right. Glory as in the glory of winning after fighting a long battle. Tell me. What does that mean to you? The Glory of winning?

"It means I'm upholding what I should be upholding…" I whispered. "Friendship…family…promises…and everything else. Yeah…I am Haru Glory."

? POV:

"Time has stopped...the world shall no longer show that time is moving. People will not age...things will not die...time will not start...not until the final piece is in place...not until then...I need that piece...I can not let anyone else have her. She is what will make time flow, and she will get me what I want. The one with the greatist magic in all of time and space...the one with the space time staff...the strongest one that has ever lived...I will have her...I will...I will...and no one will stop me! Not that Glory brat or that Raregrove brat!"
