"GAH", Gray cried out as he was sent crashing into the cliff side by a barrage of black flamed punches and kicks. He hated to admit it, but he was in a bit of a hole. "My ice is being melted by his attacks, and he's faster than me, plus he hits harder. Think Gray, think!", he thought in a hurry as he stood up again. "Coming back for more are ya", Zancrow taunted.

"Oh shut it already", Gray put his hands on the floor, "I've had it with you, you blonde freak".

The ground beneath the two froze instantly. "Ice Make:Floor".

Not expecting the sudden lack of traction, Zancrow fell flat on his face, prompting a chuckle from Gray. "Let's see how you like that"Gray gloated as he stood with no issue on the ice and started gliding on it, fist in his palm. Grunting, Zancrow stood up after failing three times. "When I get you I swear I'll kill you", Zancrow growled out between bared teeth.

"Good luck with that", Gray exclaimed behind him.

"Ice Make:Lance!, the lances crashed into Zancrow's exposed back, sending him forwards.

"Ice Make:Cannon", the cannonball smashed into his torso, drilling him into the cliff side.

Zancrow growled in annoyance and ignited his hand, planting it on the ice. "Fire God's Sanctified Pillar", black fire raced across the ice, melting it all in a flash. The pillar of fire rocketed high into the air, taking Gray with it, fifteen feet high. The ice mage crashed hard into the ground with a thud. He got up slowly, a hand on a particularly painful burn on his shoulder, "well there goes that idea" he grunted. He glared at Zancrow who was laughing at him"Ready to give up yet, Fairy Trash?' he taunted. "You wish" he charged at the god slayer, throwing a punch that was evaded. The two exchanged back and forth, not landing any solid hit until Zancrow fell for a feint and ended up taking a kick to the face. He stumbled back, holding his bleeding nose. "That hurt, punk." Fire swirled in his hand, as he took it off, before lunging straight at Gray who barely got a chance to block,"disappear!", the blast shot Gray through the air and off the cliff, into the forest below.

Mirajane

Back at the camp, Mirajane was watching over Juvia, her two siblings by her side helping her. Juvia was still unconscious and showed no signs of waking up anytime soon, much to the worry of the siblings. "Oh Juvia, if only I had stayed to help you". Mira looked over at her sister, flashing a small smile to ease the girls nerves. Elfman stood behind them, keeping watch for any threat that might come. From the canopy of the forest he spotted Azuma walking towards them slowly. He waited for him to come into the camp before walking up to him.

"Who are you, and what do you want"

Azuma introduced himself, "Beast Soul, Elfman, I presume"

Elfman nodded, "I'll ask again. What do you want? If you're a man you'll answer", his fist tightened, ready for a fight.

"I want to know where the grave is. Now tell me", looking past Elfman he saw Mirajane and Lisanna. "Women, how weak of Fairy Tail", he scoffed dismissively, looking down on the two sisters.

"Well I'm not telling you, so leave, or I'll have to force you to leave", he cracked his knuckles.

Azuma threw two swift punches that were dodged before kicking Elfman away, "I choose fight then". Elfman rubbed the spot that he had been hit, slightly wincing. "He's fast, and hit's like a real man", he thought.

He charged Azuma, "Take over: Beast Soul", his speed picked up from the takeover, faster than Azuma had expected he was backhanded away, but landed on his feet. Jumping into the air, Elfman tried a two handed hammer that was dodged, getting a palm to the chin that tossed his head back, a kick to his stomach that bent him over. Azuma jumped over Elfman's giant body and kicked him in the back of the head, knocking him to the ground. Azuma went to finish off Elfman, but he was interrupted and sent flying into a tree by a sudden kick to the side of his head.

Getting up he saw Mirajane in her Satan Soul, glaring at him.

"Demon Mirajane, eh. Hopefully you're as strong as the rumors say"

The two charged each other, fists colliding, sending out a rippling shockwave from the impact. The two engaged fiercely, blocking and dodging each other. Stepping to the side, evading a kick meant for his head, Azuma grabbed Mirajane's leg, "Bleve", the explosion from Azuma's palm sent Mira flying back. Catching herself in midair, she charged again, aiming a sweep at Azuma's legs. Seeing this he jumped over her, coming down with a kick that she rolled out of. Putting her hands together a ball of dark energy formed, "Evil Explosion".

"Nature's Fist"

A giant wooden fist burst from the ground, tearing through the Evil Explosion and ramming Mira into a tree. Vines wrapped around Mirajane, preventing her from moving.

"Ugh, what's wrong with me? I know that Satan Soul isn't something that can be used repeatedly, but why am I so weak?", she gritted her teeth in frustration. "I've grown weak, lost my fighting sense".

Azuma walked up to her, looked at her with disappointment. He kneed her in the stomach, knocking the wind from her. She coughed up some small specks of blood. "Such a disappointment", punch to the face. Kick to the side, "So weak". He kept beating her, berating her, for minutes until she was barely able to stay conscious. Lisanna had tried to stop him but he quickly dispatched her with one blow.

"Well we're finished here, weaklings". A 30 second timer appeared over Mira's head, slowly counting down as Azuma walked away. When he was gone, the timer ran out, and the explosion thundered.

Natsu

Natsu had finally found someone after he and Wendy had split up, Lucy who had also found Loke who was not back as a celestial spirit to save Lucy magic power.. They had ran some tall and fat guy with pale skin that used some sort of weird magic with a doll, but he went down in a few attacks from the three. On one of Tenrou's high cliffs, the three mages had first went there to discuss a possible strategy. Now though they were facing a different enemy, a bipedal goat person wearing a pair of black shades with a suit that cut off at his stomach, and a pair of black pants with larger muscles on his arms and even legs. Loke stared at the goat in thought, he looked familiar, like someone he knows. "Where have I seen him before". The high sun beat down on the cliff harshly. The goat person's face was stern and cold, blank. His arms were crossed as he glared at them behind the glasses. "If you don't surrender, I'll be forced to harm you, and I can't promise you'll get away alive", the voice was as cold as the demeanor, little emotion. "Natsu, be careful. I feel like there's something about him, but I can't quite place it yet", Loke whispered to Natsu, not taking his eyes off of the goat like man. "If you're intent on fighting me, then the least I can do is introduce myself", he said as he took a few steps forward, "My name is Caprico, member of The Seven Kin of Purgatory".

"Let's go, Natsu!", Loke cried out. They both charged in, fists alight and blazingly fast. Natsu reached Caprico first, "Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!", swinging his fist forward, he hit an invisible barrier. Pushing against the barrier he left himself open and was sent flying towards Loke with a forceful kick. Loke ducked under the flying dragon slayer and threw a right hook at Caprico who leaned back to dodge the attack. Dodging back Loke evaded a kick, engulfing his hand in light he landed a hard punch to Caprico's gut. Grabbing Loke by the shoulders he pulled the spirit into his knee before elbowing him and a series of punches sent Loke away, landing next to Natsu

"The hell? I should be faster than this", Natsu thought as he held the spot he was kicked. Loke had noticed it as well, and how he was unaffected by whatever Caprico was doing to them. "We have to attack together. Natsu, you get the right", Loke commanded. In the back Lucy watched the two, "What can I do?" she asked them, her whip in hand. She wanted to help out a lot, but didn't want to hold them back either. "Stay back and safe. I can't let you get hurt", Loke commanded. "It's pointless to keep fighting. You can't beat me".

"Just you watch!", the two charged again, Natsu on the left, Loke to the right. "Fire Dragon's Roar!", the stream of fire didn't get to Caprico, simply fading out. It did get Caprico's attention though, distracting him long enough for him to receive a blindsided kick to the jaw. Seizing the moment the two launched an assault of kicks and punches that ragdolled Caprico who wasn't able to defend himself from the onslaught. Cocking back together, Caprico was the one to be knocked back this time by a combined fire and light fist that produced a rather large explosion. When the rubble cleared, Caprico stood there with only light damage. A lightbulb went off in Loke's head, "Natsu. Take Lucy and get out of here"
