Chapter 10
In a land far, far away lies the kingdom of Fiore, a small, peaceful nation of 17 million, and a place filled with magic. Found in every home, bought and sold in every marketplace. For most magic is merely a tool, a mundane part of everyday life. For some, however, magic is an art, and they've devoted their lives to its practice. These are the wizards. Banded together into magical guilds, they ply their skills in search of fame and fortune. Many such guilds dot the landscape of Fiore. But there is a certain guild in a certain town that soars high above the rest, one from which countless legends have been born. A guild that will no doubt continue to create legends well into the future. Its name... is Fairy Tail.
Last time:
"What the hell is that thing! And why is it giving off so much power!" Abigail shouted as the beam got larger until it stopped growing and started tuning the forest dark.
"Whatever it is it looks pretty tasty." Dakura said as he stared in awe at the massive beam of dark energy.
"Of course you would think that." Kaito sighed while he facepalmed.
Now:
After a while of watching the dark beam of energy they saw something resembling ruins on a large upside down dome rise out of the ground and grow six leg things grow out of the dome and connect with the ground so the structure was held up by the legs.
"What the hell is that!?" Dakura shouted as he watched the legs start to move.
"I don't know what it is ,but we have to stop it before it goes any further. Because it is heading straight for Cait Shelter!" Abigail exclaimed as she started to try and catch up with the moving structure.
"I'll go on ahead and try to find any weak points, you two do the same!" Kaito yelled as he went into his swarm form and flew off onto the mobile ruins.
"Come on we can get a better look if we get on top of it. Dark Make: Dark Wings." Dakura said as he picked up Abigail under her shoulders and flew up and dropped onto the top of a building.
"Wow it really is a bunch of ruins. I wonder what this actually is?" Abigail said. When she didn't get a response she turned around and didn't see Dakura anywhere.
"Dakura!? Where did you go!?" Abigail asked to no one in particular as she looked at her empty surroundings.
"I know I smelled them. I can feel that she is in trouble." Dakura thought as he ran to the place where he knew his sister is. When he arrived to where he smelled his sister he saw an injured Jellal who was lying on the floor. Dakura couldn't care less for the person who hurt his sister for so long. Dakura was more focused on what Dakura was staring at. It was Erza wrapped up tightly in what looked like her Heavens Wheel armor with a pained expression on her face, and a goth guy that had a smirk that made him look like that he was untouchable.
"HEY, let go of my sister, or else I will have to kill you." Dakura threatened. When the emo didn't seem to respond Dakura started charging up a roar.
"I said: let her go! Dark Dragon ROAR!" Dakura shouted as he sent the large beam of dark energy at the emo. When the dust settled Erza was back in her white blouse and skirt, and the emo was was staring at Dakura with an annoyed look. Erza opened her eyes to see who attacked Midnight and when she saw her brother standing there staring down Midnight, she knew that this fight was almost over.
"Onii-chan be careful. This guy is Midnight of the Oracion Seis, and he uses Reflector magic so magic attacks are useless." Erza warned her brother as Midnight smirked at her warning and sent a blast of energy to knock her away.
"Yes listen to you sister. Your magic is useless against me so why don't you just give up now while you still have your-" Midnight was cut off as a hard punch came in contact with his cheek and was sent flying backwards into a building.
"How did you hit me?! I can reflect any of your attacks!" Midnight exclaimed as he rises out of the rubble with a few scratches.
"Yes you can reflect any of my magic attacks, but you cannot reflect attacks that have no magic." Dakura stated as he grabbed the hilt of his sword and swung it off of his back and let it hit against the ground in-front of him, embedding it in the ground some. Dakura then hoisted the sword out of the ground and rested it across his shoulder.
"And since my sword has no magic energy in it, you can't stop my attacks." Dakura stated as he swung the sword at Midnight, who was not able to stop the attack from happening, and was sent into another building.
"Come on. You are part of the Oracion Seis. A mage from an official guild should not be able to beat you. I thought you would be tougher than this if the council was this scared of you." Dakura mocked as he swung his sword again and sent Midnight back to where the fight started. Midnight was on his back looking at the sky.
"You should have finished me off sooner. The reason my name is Midnight is because my true power is awakened at midnight. Now you will all suffer a horrible painful death." Midnight cackled as he grew and changed into a horrifying monster and started attacking the three mages mercilessly. This continued until both Erza and Dakura gained bored faces and swung their Purgatory Mace and Buster sword together at the monster. After they did this everything around them fell apart to reveal a beaten Midnight in the same spot he was before.
"What? How did you see through my illusion?" Midnight croaked out before falling unconscious.
"How did you see through his illusion Onii-chan? I saw through because of my fake eye." Erza asked her older brother. Dakura smiled at her with a look of remembrance.
"You and I have more in common than blood. During my time before I came to Fairy Tail and leaving Rosemary Village, I was captured by a dark guild. They tried to torture me into joining them, and they cut out my eye as a last resort. I managed to escape them after some time. Once I got out I got a replacement like you." Dakura said replaced his sword on his back. Erza started getting teary eyed and hugged Dakura. Jellal was standing of to the side waiting for the moment between brother and sister to pass.
"If we want to stop Nirvana, we have to go now." Jellal stated to the siblings who just realized that someone else was with them.
"And why should we listen to a scumbag like you. After all for all we know you could be helping them and be leading us into a trap." Dakura said skeptically to the Heavenly Body mage that hurt his little sister all those years ago.
"It's ok Onii-chan, his memory was wiped, but he understands that he has done wrong and he wants to make things right." Erza pleaded with her brother.
"Fine if you trust him then so do I, but any wrong move he makes and I will bring him down." Dakura threatened as he glared at the offending mage. Jellal solemnly nodded and got to his feet. The group was walking toward the center of the ruins to get to the large structure in the middle until there was a large explosion in the center. When the explosion died down the three mages doubled their efforts to get to the source.
'Hello? Is anyone there? If you hear me then respond.' Came the voice of Hibiki in each of their minds causing them to stop in their place.
"Hibiki is that you? I thought you were out for the count in the fight with Angel." Dakura questioned.
'I was but now I am using all of my strength along with Ren, Eve, Lyon, and Sherry to fly the Christina and deliver a message on how to destroy Nirvana.' Hibiki said as the Christina was seen flying in the air.
"What do you mean? Have you figured out how to destroy Nirvana?!" Erza asked with hope that the threat will soon be over.
'Yeah. The legs are energy tubes that send magical energy from the earth into lacrimas at the end of each tube and feed the energy into the main cannon of Nirvana. There are six lacrima in total. I am downloading a map into each of you with each lacrima marked.' Hibiki said as a loading bar appeared over everyone's heads. When the bar was full everyone could see a map in each of their minds with each lacrima labeled a number.
"I will take one because I passed the entrance earlier so I can just shadow travel there" Dakura stated as he started heading toward a shadow.
'I'll take two. I am currently over it now.' Kaito said through the telepathic bond.
'I got three. I can see the entrance now.' Abigail said.
'I will take four. I can smell it perfume from here.' Ichiya stated.
"You mean you are the closest to it." Erza deadpanned.
'Ouwah. How you hurt me my darling.' Ichiya complained.
"I will take five. It is fairly close to my position." Erza stated as she headed of in a certain direction.
'I will take six. I am pretty close to it now.' Wendy said with great determination.
'What is this? Do you pitiful wizards plan to stop my plans? No matter. I am currently waiting at one of the lacrima now. Whoever comes to the one I am at will surely fail.' Zero said. He cut of the communication once he finished talking.
'Good luck everyone. Everyone on the Christina is running out of magic energy, so from here on out you will be on your own.' Hibiki said. Once he was done talking the connection was cut and everyone set out to destroy their lacrimas and hope that they didn't run into the Master of the Oracion Seis.
