One day during his travels Phantom came across a monument that was dedicated to his brother Natsu. Phantom began thinking of the guild again but then Celestia came into his mind. Phantom realised that the guild was the only home he wanted and set off back to the guild but when he arrived the guild was being destroyed. Phantom ran to see what was happening and saw Celestia laying there unconscious after blocking an attack from a Jupiter cannon. The people who fired it then aimed the next shot right at Celestia. As the Jupiter cannon was fired and the strike was headed straight for Celestia, Phantom without thinking threw himself in the way of the strike shielding her from it and used his Fire dragons roar in the hopes of stopping it. Phantoms attack collided with the Jupiter cannon's strike and at first looked like it would be enough but in the end the Jupiter cannon's strike collided with Phantom sending him flying. Phantom got up barely standing but seeing he had left the guild Celestia just ignored him and what he had just done. Master Glacier told Phantom to just stay down because another strike like that would kill him. Phantom ignored her advice and apologised for what he was about to do. Master Glacier shouted "No Phantom don't." The others knew it must be bad if the master was scared. Phantom took off his cloak showing his magical restraints, he removed the ones he wore on his wrists leaving the mask on for now. Once the restraints were taken off he threw them to the ground and everyone could feel a huge build-up of magical energy but it wasn't Phantom that was emitting this power it was the Jupiter cannon about to fire again. The cannon fired and was aimed for Celestia again. Phantom wanted to forget about Celestia, he didn't want to be around her so he couldn't hurt her that way, but he once again jumped in front of Celestia to shield her and this time he built up a huge amount of magical energy and let out his fire dragon's roar attack once more and when it collided with the attack from the Jupiter cannon there was a huge explosion and after the smoke had cleared both attacks had cancelled each other out. The guild was amazed at Phantom's strength. The people who were trying to kill Celestia began to back off after seeing that Phantom had just as much power as a Jupiter cannon. Celestia was surprised that even though she no longer loved him (or so she thought) he was still willing to give his life for her if necessary. She started getting feelings for him again but this time she couldn't tell if it was love or something else.
Phantom had re-joined Fairytail and Celestia had broken up with Crash just after Phantom had re-joined the guild, Celestia had fallen in love with him again but this time Phantom even though he still loved Celestia had decided that to stop himself from being able to hurt her he never made another team with her even when she begged him to, he also started dating Misty a water wizard and this caused Celestia to cry a lot because she wanted it to be her that he chose. Now Phantom still loved Celestia but didn't want to hurt her so he stayed away but Celestia still loved him and was trying to get closer. One day Celestia asked Master Glacier for some advice on what to do about this but the master said that without ruining their relationship there is nothing she could do about it. Phantom and Misty were quite open about their relationship until Phantom realised that if Misty found out who his parents were that he would also be hurting Misty so he broke up with her. Phantom realised that if anybody ever found out he would become an outcast so he never told anyone. Then one day Phantom had agreed to go on a job with Celestia, Misty, Crash and Jolt. The job was to fight a huge group of bandits and arrest them which they completed with ease so they began to head home but were cut off by the mysterious man who trained Phantom when he was little. This time though the man was here to test Phantom and so he immediately took out Crash, Misty and Jolts, he was unable to get Celestia because Phantom was protecting her. The man lunged at Phantom using a technique which he taught Phantom but Phantom didn't have enough time to react and was sent flying into a wall. The man then attacked Celestia using a sword made from his dark magic. The man said that with one strike from this sword would kill Celestia instantly and Phantom tried to get to her to take the attack instead of her. The sword struck Celestia and she dropped to the ground gasping for air. Crash, Misty and Jolts rushed to her side to try and help her. Celestia quietly called out for Phantom so he ran to her. She whispered to him "Not how I planned on dying and I still have regrets but I'm glad that I got to spend my time alive with you and all the others…" As she finished speaking she had stopped breathing and now lay there dead. Phantom now infuriated by this told the others to stay back and let him deal with this guy. Phantom then took off his cloak and then the restraints he was wearing on his arms and legs, however he then did something he had never done before. Phantom had taken off his mask and his face was shrouded in darkness not visible to anyone. Suddenly there was a huge burst of magic as Phantom got angrier and angrier about Celestia being dead and now he was covered in fire but this wasn't your normal everyday fire this fire was different. This fire was as black as the night sky. The man said so it is true this boy really does have 2 sets of parents. He has his original birth parents who nobody knew and then he had the parents only he and Phantom knew about. The man said "Well, well, well looks like you have finally awoken the Dawnslayer side of you." At that exact moment the others looked at Phantom in fear. He was the last of the Dawnslayers and now he was angry and an angry Dawnslayer is the last kind of person you want to see. Phantom charged full speed at the man though Phantom still wasn't strong enough until Phantom disappeared and the man was suddenly hit by hundreds of black fire attacks which sounded as if Phantom repeatedly said apocalyptic before each spell was cast. The man fell to the floor defeated and said "Well done Phantom you are now ready to face him." Phantom asked who and the man replied "The one wizard who will bring destruction upon your world but I am sorry I had to make the test real you friend is dead." Phantom just left the man to die and walked over to Celestia's body. As he got near her body the flames around him went out and now instead of blackness he was surrounded by a blinding light and as he placed his hand on her chest the light got brighter and then Phantom shouted "Dawnslayer forbidden art: life restoration". This spell was forbidden because it brought the dead person back to life but always killed the caster. Phantom fell to the ground after casting it and Celestia opened her eyes as if waking from a sleep Celestia saw Phantom and ran to his side. He simply said goodbye to everyone there and then he just vanished. His body was no longer there.
