Chapter 10
"Kill everyone that disobeys and it will resurrect the worst mages in the world."
Layla and Lucy stared at him in horror at what they just heard. Lucy stepped forward. "Kill everyone that disobeys? Resurrect the worst mages in the world? Who would that be?"
"Well, the disobey group would be the academy leaders. The worst mages...masters planning on trying to control zeref."
"ZEREF!" shrieked Layla. "The black mage? B-but, he's dead...w-why are you people even doing this! There's no point!"
"So I guess world domination can't be a goal? But oh well, I don't care anymore. There's nothing I can do and after my failures, I'd probably get executed..."
"Then join us." Stated Lucy. "Your master doesn't want you anymore right natsu? So join us and help us. Please, I know that you never cared about world domination that much. Please let the old you come out. The you when you were with me."
"What makes you think that I wasn't acting?"
"Because you were truly happy when we were together. I could tell you know. I know when you're faking things and when you're telling the truth. And believe me, you weren't lying when you said that you were having fun. Just tell the truth. You have also started to like this academy. When you're confused, you can make mistakes. Which is probably the reason your captured right now."
"How can you trust me though?"
"I know I can. I just look at your eyes. I know that you are an assassin but I know you aren't the type to lie in situations like this. It simply isn't in your nature. So please, take off that mask of fake emotions and become who you were with me. Please."
"You..." Natsu paused as he saw the look in Lucy's eyes. He sighed in defeat. "Fine. I'll help you."
Lucy beamed at him. "Now this time, you really do promise right? RIGHT?"
"Uh...yeah?"
"SAY IT! Say that you won't betray me again natsu!"
"I promise I won't betray you again..."
"Okay good! Mother, please free him!" said Lucy smiling at him. Layla laughed when she saw Lucy's face but ordered the guards to free him. This forgiving can only be done...
"When you're in love," whispered Layla.
"Excuse me?"said Lucy.
"You and natsu are in love! Of course!" cheered Layla. "Well, don't worry about that now, go ahead and stop them!"
Lucy stared a bit but turned back to natsu and looked at him. She blushed and so did he. Were they in love? Wait. Natsu blushed. Which means...
"YAY! YOU FINALLY TOOK OFF THAT MASK OF YOURS!"
Natsu sweat dropped. "Okay..."
"Let's go then!" smiled Lucy lending her hand to him. He took it and the two friends walked out of the jail. Layla beamed watching them as they held hands. Oh god it was only a few weeks but their relationship was sure getting sweet~!
Outside...
"This is too easy," complained Gray as he easily beat another mage with one hit. The mage flew away crashing into other mages who also got defeated.
"No complaining Gray. Listen to master," replied Erza cutting down another enemy. Though she said that, even she, had to admit, that this was too easy.
"Well, if this is too easy, I guess that we can also join," came a chorus of voices. Standing in front of them were the S-class mages of fairy tail academy.
Gray smirked. "Finally getting more interesting...Ur."
"Gray. Why did you join death bringer?"
"Because it's fun of course!"
"Well kiddo's, it's not going to be fun when we beat some sense into you," said Gildarts swinging his arm around. Time to fight.
"It would be my honor to fight you," declared Erza ex-quipping into a new set of armor. Fairy Armadura. Erza was serious.
"EHHHH? Do we even need to help you guys, it seems that you guys are doing perfectly fine," complained a voice from up the roof."
"Quiet sting. We're trying to save the world here," said Rogue emotionlessly. Sting smirked.
"Well~ The only reason that the academy is doing so well despite half of their forces gone is because of us you know... our missionaires arrived quite a while ago. That just shows how awesome we are," bragged Sting.
"Shut up sting, you're annoying," murmured Rufus.
"Don't leave us out too!" came another group of voices. It was lamia scale, blue Pegasus, mermaid heel and quatro cerebus.
The master of death bringer didn't flinch as the gigantic amount of forces landed on the group greatly replacing the fallen mages. They were outnumbered...yet he wasn't panicking?
"It will be over soon," he said. "The apocalypse will be here soon. I have already raised the blood moon. It is only a matter of time before he comes into play."
"Stop this nonsense master, you know it is hopeless to control zeref and acnologia. They are ancient legends, you will never succeed," said Natsu appearing in front of him. The master smirked.
"Why if it isn't natsu! You traitor! But watch me! Watch me raise the infamous legends of this world!" cried the Master.
"Not on my watch!" said Lucy appearing too. "Natsu, you're too fast! And you people! Well, you can't control the black dragon and mage. They are too powerful."
"Idiots. Watch me," hissed the Master. "I call upon this power, far and wide! Lend me the power to summon thee! Ancients past!"
The sky darkened as the blood moon slowly turned black. The black was mysterious, almost purple even but it radiated a strong sense of magic power. Everyone could feel their power rising and rising quickly. It was as if the magic power amount had just risen. The now black moon turned hollow creating a wide hole just large enough for a dragon. The darkness struck the earth. The ground cackled and split apart from the impact.
It was the black dragon of the apocalypse, acnologia.
And standing on top of the dragon looking bored, was the black mage zeref. The master smirked while all the mages gasped in horror. Zeref raised his hand and mages fell. They fell like specks of raindrops from the sky. So fast and so un-noticeable. They fell.
"HAHAHAHA! DO YOU SEE THAT? THAT BLACK MAGE OBEYS ME! NOW ZEREF AND ACNOLOGIA! KILL EVERYONE THAT GETS IN MY WAY!"
"Including your own guild members?" questioned zeref. The master looked a little stunned at that question but then grinned evilly again.
"Yes, even my members..."
"MASTER!" yelled Erza and Gray in horror.
"D-didn't you say that we were in this together?" yelled Gray.
"We pledged our loyalty to you master!" yelled Erza. The master smirked.
"Okay, you guys were all useful tools and all but now you are going to die! Annihilate them zeref!" commanded the master.
Nothing happened.
Zeref slowly turned around to face the master. The master could see the blood red eyes of zeref. They pierced through him and soon there was pain. Unbearable pain. The master screamed for mercy as he was consumed by a black mist. The writhed and squirmed on the group pleading but zeref ignored him. Everyone watched in horror. And after 7 seconds, the master was dead.
Acnologia growled. "Foolish Insect..."
"Yes, he was very foolish to think that he could control us. But that does not matter. We have been revived again so I don't mind that if we do some damage right?"
Acnologia opened his mouth revealing his spiky teeth. "Hehe, I'd love to."
"Good, now let's get on with it. Time to destroy the world," declared Zeref.
