The wyverns flew upwards to dodge the barrage.
"Damn." Erza said.

"I got him!" Renji hollered.
Renji moved in to attack the other wyvern.
- Roar, Zabimaru! – Renji shouted.
Renji summoned the Shikai form of Zabimaru to attack the second wyvern.
The second wyvern caught it with its teeth and tossed Renji into the forest.
"Renji!" Usopp and Chopper hollered in unison.
Ice cracking was soon heard.
The first wyvern broke free of Tsukishiro with ease.
"No way…" Rukia said in disbelief.

"Seriously?!" Maehara exclaimed.
"It's skin must be tough." Blizzard commented.
The first wyvern charged up and fired an ice breath attack.
- Brazo Derecho del Gigante! – Chad shouted.
Chad summoned the defensive form of his right arm to block the attack.
Chad began to struggle.
"Chad-nii!" Romeo hollered, as he covered his eyes from the immense snow gust.
- Photon Blast! – Nakamura shouted.
- Rising Fang! – Fuwa shouted.
- Solid Script: Water! – Levy shouted.
- Minigun! – Sugaya shouted.
- Horn Point... Horn Cannon Elf! – Chopper shouted.
Nakamura, Fuwa, Levy, Sugaya and Chopper combined their attacks to knock the first wyvern out of balance.
Chad's right arm had several scratches but survived all the same.
"You alright?" Nakamura asked.
Chad nodded.
Renji appeared out of the forest with a minor concussion.
He then saw the second wyvern attempting to attack Chad's group unguarded with widened eyes.
But Sanji and Usopp were waiting for that.

A massive explosion from the two combo attacks occurred.
Everyone panted out of exhaustion.
"D-Did that work?" Levy asked, panting.
"Hope so…" Erza replied, requipping from her Heaven's Wheel Armor to her standard one.
Wendy was about to collapse.
But Romeo caught in her time.
"Wendy-chan!" Romeo hollered.
"Wendy!" Carla hollered, running towards her partner.
"Are you okay?" Romeo asked, very concerned.
"Y-Yeah…" Wendy replied, in a weakly manner.
"She's must be exhausted from pouring all of her magic into that one attack." Gajeel explained.
"What'd you expect? We had to pour everything we had onto those bastards." Sanji commented.
Two loud roars were heard, alerting everyone with shocked facial expressions.
"N-No way…" Isogai said in disbelief.
Coming out of the smoke were the two wyverns taking to the skies, heavily injured, but still kicking nonetheless.
Usopp, Chopper, Brook, Happy, Kimura and Sugaya screamed in fright.
"You gotta be shitting me?!" Renji exclaimed.
Everyone else was just very shocked by the wyvern's reappearance.
The two wyverns prepared to charge their ice breath attacks.
"This is bad!" Okano hollered.
"TAKE COVER!" Erza shouted.
The two wyverns fired their attacks at Erza and the others.
A massive explosion was created from the combined breath attacks, hitting Group B without mercy.

Group A was keeping an eye on the injured blue wolf as they heard an explosion.
"Sure hope the others are okay?" Lucy asked, concerned.
"Ritsu! What's happening?" Okuda asked.
Okuda had her smartphone out to talk to Ritsu.
"Based on my analysis on the others via smartphones, Group B is currently battling two wyverns in an open snowfield." Ritsu explained.
"Wyverns?!" Group A exclaimed in unison.
"Are the others gonna be okay?" Orihime asked.
"I'm not sure. I've lost contact after the explosion." Ritsu replied, sadly.
"Okay. Thanks anyway." Okuda said.
Okuda turned her smartphone off.
"Damn." Zoro said.
"How's the wolf?" Sugino asked.
Kaede is still healing the injured blue wolf without trouble.
"Almost done." Kaede replied.
The wolf begins to open its eyes a bit, albeit with difficulty.
"W-W-Where am I…?" The wolf thought, still weakened from her injuries while revealing its voice to be female.
(A/N: The wolf is a girl.)
Natsu's dragon ears begin to pick up long-distance movement.
"I heard something… behind the bushes." Natsu explained.
"Where?" Ichigo asked, gripping on Zangetsu's hilt to be ready.
A pack of large, black wolves appeared from the bushes; their height on par with Blizzard's.
Lucy, Nami, Orihime and Okuda screamed in fright.
"They're almost as big as Blizzard!" Gray and Sugino exclaimed in unison.
"So cool~!" Luffy hollered, excited.
Ichigo comically slapped Luffy in the head.
"Knock it off!" Ichigo hollered.
- Fire Dragon's Claw! – Natsu shouted.
Natsu delivered a powerful fire kick at two wolves.
"Less talk! More action!" Natsu hollered.
- Sheathed Blade Assault Style… Moonlight Thrust! – Nagisa shouted.
- Gum-Gum Whip! – Luffy shouted.
- Getsuga Tensho! – Ichigo shouted.
- Ice-Make: Ice Geyser! – Gray shouted.
- Hellfire! – Karma shouted.
- Element Gun… Wind Blast! – Sugino shouted.
- One Sword Style… 360 Caliber Phoenix! – Zoro shouted.
- Licht Regen! – Uryu shouted.
The boys combined their attacks to overpower the wolves.
A few more came from the other side for a surprise attack on the girls.
"Luce!" Natsu hollered.
In a flash, the lion Celestial Spirit Loke (or Leo) appeared and punched one wolf in the jaw, knocking it back.
- Regulus Impact! – Loke shouted.
Loke fired a lion-shaped energy blast at the other wolves.
The wolves were hit without delay.
Lucy smiled.
"Thanks, Loke." Lucy said.
"No problem. And it's always a pleasure to protect you beautiful ladies." Loke commented, adjusting his glasses.
"Keep dreaming." Lucy said, having a sweat drop on her face.
Loke vanished back into the celestial realm.
"Why are we reminded of Maehara-kun all of a sudden." Nagisa thought.
One more wolf appeared from the bushes to get the drop on Nagisa.
Everyone else noticed this but won't make it in time.
"Shit! It's too fast to react!" Zoro thought.
"NAGISA!" Kaede screamed.
Nagisa was about to be at the mercy of the wolf.
However, a blue blur appeared and attacked the beast.
Everyone else were surprised.
It was the blue wolf, all healed up, as it bit its fangs into the jugular of the black wolf.
The black wolf was dead.
The blue one released its fangs from the black one, growling with fangs slightly covered in blood.
"You sure he's not a rabid animal?" Karma asked.
The blue wolf approached Nagisa slowly, causing the others to get into fighting stances to attack if it tries to harm Nagisa.
Nagisa and the wolf were just inches away now.
"What's it gonna do?" Okuda asked, hiding behind Karma.
"Don't know." Kanzaki replied.
Sugino was in front of her with his Element Gun ready.
Natsu and the others were anxious about what's going to happen.
Kaede was worried the most.
Surprisingly… the wolf licked Nagisa's face.
Nagisa and everyone else were surprised.
"Well… that was unexpected." Gray commented.
"Didn't see that coming." Robin said, surprised that a wolf accepted a human for the first time in history.
"Thanks. Now what should we call you?" Nagisa asked.
The wolf was pondering.
Natsu raised his hand.
"I know! Blue is a good name!" Natsu hollered.
"Seriously?" Ichigo and Gray questioned in unison, flabbergasted by Natsu's name idea.
"Lame…" Luffy said.
Nami punched Luffy in the head.
"I agree with Natsu." Nami said.
"Same here." Lucy and Kaede said in unison.
"All in agreement?" Uryu asked, readjusting his glasses a bit.
The others nodded in agreement.
"Then it's settled." Nagisa said.
Nagisa pet the wolf named "Blue" on its head.
(A/N: Blue is based on the character of the same name from Wolf's Rain.)
"Nice to meet you, Blue." Nagisa said.
Blue smiled.
"You too." Blue said.
"Now that that's done, we should keep moving." Kanzaki explained.
"Right!" The others hollered in unison.
Group A, now joined by Blue, kept moving.
Lucy felt a tinge of uneasiness, however.
"I hope the others are okay?" Lucy thought.

The smoke from the explosion clear up, revealing Group B badly injured on the ground with loads of bruises on their skin and clothes. Their cloaks were also half torn up.
Romeo, Gajeel, Isogai, Maehara, Kimura, Sugaya, Chiba and Renji took the worst of it to protect Wendy, Levy, Kataoka, Okano, Yada, Nakamura, Hayami and Rukia from harm.
The two injured wyverns lowered themselves to the ground.
Romeo, Gajeel, Isogai, Maehara, Kimura, Sugaya, Chiba and Renji managed to pick themselves back up, but with difficulty due to their injuries.
"We…can't…lose…" Romeo said, holding his injured right arm.
"D-Damn right…" Kimura said, using his speed to accelerate his healing.
Gajeel moved his neck around.
Renji held Zabimaru in front of him.
- Bankai… – Renji said.
Renji was enveloped in light-red reiatsu, creating a small explosion.
The smoke cleared, revealing his Bankai.
"…Hihio Zabimaru." Renji said.
Maehara was holding Isogai by the latter's left arm around the former's neck, as did Sugaya for Chiba.
Wendy, Levy, Kataoka, Okano, Yada, Nakamura, Hayami and Rukia opened their eyes to see the eight guys still standing strong despite their wounds.
"Romeo-kun…" Wendy thought.
"Gajeel…" Levy thought.
"Isogai-kun…" Kataoka thought.
"Maehara-kun…" Okano thought.
"Kimura-kun…" Yada thought.
"Sugaya-kun…" Nakamura thought.
"Chiba-kun…" Hayami thought.
"Renji…" Rukia thought.
The eight girls soon blushed upon seeing the eight guys' resolve to keep fighting.
Erza and the rest struggled to get up, only opening their eyes to see what's going on.
Romeo, Gajeel, Isogai, Maehara, Kimura, Sugaya, Chiba and Renji charged at the two wyverns with renewed resolve. They fought with the ounce of strength they've got, clashing with the beasts with their fists and weapons. But the wyverns gave them a severe pummeling.
Wendy, Levy, Kataoka, Okano, Yada, Nakamura, Hayami, Rukia, Happy, Carla, Usopp, Chopper and Fuwa shed tears upon seeing this tragedy, while Erza, Lily, Sanji, Franky, Blizzard, Brook, Chad and Terasaka kept on struggling in hopes to help their wounded friends.
Romeo, Gajeel, Isogai, Maehara, Kimura, Sugaya, Chiba and Renji were nearly at their limits, but they are still going strong.
The two wyverns soon gave in as they halfway fell to the ground in heavy exhaustion.
"This is it…" Romeo said, charging up a pair of red fireballs on his hands.
"All or nothing…" Kimura said, getting into a running stance as electricity flowed through his body a little faster.
"Got it." Chiba whispered, reading another arrow at his quiver.
"So…" Maehara said, igniting his fists and feet as the snowy ground melted a bit.
The two wyverns prepared for one last dual ice breath attack.
"…let's give it…" Isogai said, combining his Escrima sticks into a Bo-Staff.
"…everything…" Sugaya and Renji said in unison; Sugaya creating another green construct and Renji generating reiatsu into Hihio Zabimaru.
"…WE'VE GOT!" Gajeel shouted, releasing a green aura around him.
The two wyverns fired their one last breath combo.
- Red Fire! – Romeo shouted.
- Dragon Slayer's Secret Art – Karma Demon: Iron God Sword! – Gajeel shouted.
- Ground Blast! – Isogai shouted.
- Shoryureppa! – Maehara shouted.
- Homing Attack! – Kimura shouted.
- Strength of Will! – Sugaya shouted.
- Gimlet! – Chiba shouted.
- Hikotsu Taiho! – Renji shouted.
The eight combined their best attacks to clash with the wyvern's breath attack.
Both sides were struggling. Trying overpower the opposing side.
Refusing to give up, Romeo, Gajeel, Isogai, Maehara, Kimura, Sugaya, Chiba and Renji all let out a might battle cry as they gave it all they've got.
Their combined attack began to overpower the wyvern's breath combo, much to the wyvern's surprise.
Romeo, Gajeel, Isogai, Maehara, Kimura, Sugaya, Chiba and Renji's combo attack overpowered the two wyverns, generating a massive explosion that took out a small portion of the hills and front view of the forest.
The wyverns were down for the count.
Romeo, Gajeel, Isogai, Maehara, Kimura, Sugaya, Chiba and Renji were victorious. They smiled at their victory, before falling to the ground all at once from extreme exhaustion.
The others who recovered got up and rushed to their side, with Wendy, Levy, Kataoka, Okano, Yada, Nakamura, Hayami and Rukia rushing to each of their male counterparts closer.
Wendy had Romeo's head on her lap as she kneeled in front of him (who was laying straight to the right), much to Carla's surprise, Fuwa's excitement, and Sanji's horror.
"You did amazing, Romeo-kun." Wendy commented.
"T-T-Thanks…" Romeo said, blushing and wincing in pain.
"I was so scared to think you were gonna die. It's as if-" Wendy said, tears flowing down her face from being scared and relieved.
Before she could finish, she was suddenly kissed by Romeo, using what little strength he had left to use his right arm around her neck for support.
Wendy's face was red with widened eyes at the sudden kiss, but suddenly gave in and closed her eyes, deepening the kiss between them.
Carla's jaw dropped down, Sanji's soul left his body (with a ghost of him crying coming out), Erza and Happy smiled, and Fuwa squeaked with delight.
In fact, Gajeel, Isogai, Maehara, Kimura, Sugaya, Chiba and Renji did the same thing as Romeo did to Levy, Kataoka, Okano, Yada, Nakamura, Hayami and Rukia at the same time to assure everything's okay. And also confessing their love.
The other seven girls were as surprised as Wendy, but they too gave in to confess their love towards the injured boys.
Erza, and Happy smiled even more, as did Lily, while Fuwa squeaked even more; Usopp, Chopper, Blizzard, Franky, Brook, and Terasaka had their jaws dropped like Carla, Chad lightly smiled, and Sanji's soulless body now has blood falling from his eyes.
Romeo, Gajeel, Isogai, Maehara, Kimura, Sugaya, Chiba and Renji had confessed their love towards Wendy, Levy, Kataoka, Okano, Yada, Nakamura, Hayami and Rukia in their victory over the wyverns.

After a half-hour of walking, Group A reached a temple.
"Is this the temple?" Karma asked.
"It's gotta be." Nami replied.
"If this is like the temple we entered and fought Sylph, then it has to be." Nagisa explained.
Blue growled a bit.
"The dog's getting a bad vibe." Sugino said.
"No doubt." Gray said.
"Let's go." Natsu said.
Natsu and Group A all went inside the temple: known as the "Winter Temple".
XXX
Group A entered the center of the Winter Temple, revealing to be a wide shrine with waterfalls and stone altars.
"So pretty~!" The girls hollered in unison.
"Wow…" Zoro said, amazed at the architecture here.
Gray and Juvia were looking at the temple's structure together… like civilized people with intrigued expressions.
"Beautiful…" Gray and Juvia thought in unison.
Natsu, Nagisa, Luffy, Ichigo, Sugino, Uryu and Blue were also intrigued.
Blue suddenly began to pick up a strange scent and started to growl on her right.
This alerted the others.
"What is it, girl?" Nagisa asked.
"Is Blue a girl?" Orihime asked, curiously.
Nagisa nodded.
"I'm surprised he'd figured Blue's gender out?!" Lucy and Nami thought in unison, comically surprised on Nagisa knowing Blue's gender after just meeting the wolf.
Natsu's fists were coated in his signature magic.
"We've got company…" Natsu said.
The others noticed what Natsu and Blue are saying and saw to their left a sapphire-colored bubble appearing in front of them.
The bubble popped and revealed a blue-skinned water spirit with flowing azure hair, cobalt eyes, and dressed in blue-colored, slightly revealing clothing while barefooted.
"Are you a Guardian Spirit?" Natsu asked.
"I am Undine, Guardian Spirit of Water." Undine said, introducing herself.
Water came out of the waterfalls and surrounded Undine in three layers.
This got Group A prepared for battle.
"Defeat me, and you will pass." Undine said.
"Seems simple enough." Karma said, summoning his two mystic chains.
"Easy for you to say." Uryu said, reading his Ginrei Kojaku.
"It won't be like with Sylph. Be careful." Nami explained, wielding her Magic Clima-Tact.
Lucy held two Celestial keys in her hands, Kaede conjured light magic from her hands, Orihime had her Shun Shun Rikka ready, Sugino loaded his Element Gun, Okuda channeled red magic on her hands, Kanzaki's eyes glowed red, Gray took off his cloak and jacket and got into his fighting stance, Juvia's body was slightly covered in water, Zoro took out all three of his swords, Robin prepared to use her Devil Fruit powers, Blue growled viciously, Luffy cracked his knuckles, Ichigo drew Zangetsu and Nagisa steadied himself with Korefuji sheathed.
"Let's do it!" Natsu hollered.
"Right!" Group A hollered.
- Fire Dragon's Brilliant Flame! – Natsu shouted.
- Drawn Blade Burst Style… Moonlight Circle! – Nagisa shouted.
- Gum-Gum Bullet! – Luffy shouted.
- Getsuga Tensho! – Ichigo shouted.
- Open, Gate of the Lion and Golden Bull! Leo! Taurus! – Lucy shouted, summoning Loke and Taurus.
- Regulus Impact! – Loke shouted.
- Rampage! – Taurus shouted.
- Light Daggers! – Kaede shouted.
- Heat Egg! – Nami shouted.
- Koten Zanshun! – Orihime shouted.
- Ice-Make: Arrows! – Gray shouted.

- Chain of Rebuttal! – Karma shouted.
- Element Gun… Earth Blast! – Sugino shouted.
- Hex Bolts! – Okuda shouted.
- Psyche Orb! – Kanzaki shouted.
- Three Sword Style… Dragon Twister! – Zoro shouted.
- Ocho Fleur! – Robin shouted.
- Heilig Pfeil! – Uryu shouted.
Natsu, Nagisa, Luffy, Ichigo, Lucy (and Loke and Taurus), Kaede, Nami, Orihime, Gray, Juvia, Karma, Sugino, Okuda, Kanzaki, Zoro, Robin and Uryu combined their attacks to strike Undine.
Blue joined in with her fangs to pierce Undine.
- Water Wall! – Undine shouted.
Undine summoned a highly condensed form of water shaped like a wall to block the combined assault with ease.
"Is that all, humans?" Undine asked.
"Loke! Taurus! Return!" Lucy hollered.
Both Loke and Taurus nodded at Lucy's command.
Lucy closed Loke and Taurus' gates and returned them to the Celestial Spirit World.
Natsu ran forward and attacked Undine with a fiery punch.
Undine dodged and knocked Natsu with a backhanded attack into a shrine.
"Natsu!" Lucy and Gray hollered in unison.
"Natsu-san!" Juvia hollered.
- Bankai! – Ichigo shouted.
Ichigo went into his Bankai and used his speed to create after-images to confuse Undine.
Undine wasn't impressed.
Ichigo saw an opening and attempted to take that chance.
But Undine grabbed Tensa Zangetsu with her left hand (even though blood was gushing from the blade's sharp edge).
Ichigo was shocked.
- Ice Blast! – Undine shouted.
Undine fired a blast of ice from her left hand at Ichigo.
Ichigo was blown by the ice attack and got slammed into a shrine like Natsu.
"Kurosaki-kun!" Orihime hollered.
Uryu gritted his teeth.
- Gum-Gum Jet Gatling! – Luffy shouted.
- Drawn Blade Burst Style… Rising Phoenix! – Nagisa shouted.
Luffy and Nagisa attempted to double team on Undine.
But Undine was already a step ahead.
- Ice Shards! – Undine shouted.
Undine fired a barrage of sharp icicles at Luffy and Nagisa.
Luffy and Nagisa were pierced by the shards and knocked down.
"Luffy!" Nami, Zoro and Robin hollered in unison.
"Nagisa!" Kaede and Sugnio hollered in unison.
"Nagisa-kun!" Karma and Kanzaki hollered in unison.
"Nagisa-san!" Okuda hollered.
Recovering from their last injuries, Natsu and Ichigo attempted their own double team attack on Undine.
Blue followed to protect her master.
Undine sighed.
"Never learn do you." Undine said.
- Ice Shards! – Undine shouted.
Undine fired her barrage of ice shards at Natsu, Ichigo and Blue.
The trio were pierced as well as felt to the same place Luffy and Nagisa fell to.
The girls were horrified while the other guys were shocked.
"Your turn." Undine said.
Undine readied herself for another attack.
Gray regained his composure and got on the defensive.
- Ice-Make: Shield! – Gray shouted.
Gray conjured up a flower-shaped ice shield to protect himself and the others from harm.
Nami, Orihime and Okuda snapped out of it and joined Gray for increased defense.
- Milky Ball! – Nami shouted.
- Santen Kesshun! – Orihime shouted.
- Barrier! – Kaede shouted.
- Chaos Shield! – Okuda shouted.
Nami, Orihime, Kaede and Okuda conjured up their own barriers to reinforce Gray's.
"This should work!" Okuda hollered.
"Predictable." Undine thought.
Karma noticed something isn't right.
"Wait a minute…" Karma whispered.
Karma soon figured Undine's attack out.
But he was too late to warn the others.
- Maelstrom! – Undine shouted.
Undine summoned a water tornado below Gray and the others' feet.
Gray, Lucy, Kaede, Nami, Orihime, Juvia, Karma, Okuda, Sugino, Kanzaki, Zoro, Robin and Uryu screamed in pain as they were brutally hit by the attack.
All thirteen were struck down without mercy.
"Pathetic creatures." Undine commented.
Gray was lying with his face up, wondering what he can do now.
Knowing that his ice magic won't harm Undine, he had only one spell left that could guarantee his victory.
But knows full well what the cost will be.
"I guess I have no choice… I have to use it…" Gray thought.
Against an opponent like Undine, Gray is forced to do the unthinkable.
