(End Opening Sequence)
Natsu and the others, joined by Juvia arrived at the Tower of Heaven. Natsu ran off to find Happy, whom was taken by one of Erza's former comrades. They found an escaped Erza and her past was slowly revealed. How she was a slave and that the ones who captured her were once her friends, how she was tortured after a failed escape attempt and how they failed their escape attempt, which caused Jellal to try and rescue her but he was the one tortured instead. An old man named Rob saved her life which reawakened her magical powers and she used her newfound powers to defeat them and save Jellal from his tortures but he had become corrupted by an evil force and then exiled her from the island where Jellal presumably told her comrades on how she abandoned them. She only revealed parts of her past, leaving out the parts which made her feel weak and helpless. She told them to go home but they all split up, with Lucy reluctantly going with Juvia.
Meanwhile, Natsu had already tied up Wally and Millianna, with Happy flying alongside him. He had beaten the two quite easily thanks to his training from Naruto. However due to Natsu's stupidity, he wore a giant cat mask which caused him to taken in by surprise. He used crocodile tears to free himself out of Millianna's magic binding tubes. He then proceeded to defeat the two with his powerful roar. Millianna was a curvy brown haired girl who dressed like a cat. Wally wore an old-style gangster attire and had a square face.
Their comrade Sho arrived to where Erza was, he was a blonde haired young man with a dark skin tone.
"Stop it Sho." A huge man wearing turban, an eyepatch on his left eye and his jaw was covered by a metal plate. This was Simon, also one of Erza's old friends but unlike the others, he knew the truth about Erza seemingly abandoning them and saw through Jellal's lies. With his appearance, he explained to Sho and the other's what really happened, causing the three to feel regret and Sho to fall to his knees, guilt seeping through him.
(Jellal's location)
"I knew they would betray me. Looks like I need your talents after all." He looked at the three by his side, a tall man with the head of an owl, a rocker of average height and finally a voluptuous woman with pink hair and open kimono.
"Shall I take care of them Lord Jellal?" Another man stepped out of the shadows. He had pale skin, black hair and eyes. He wore a black jacket with red straps and long sleeves, it also revealed his midriff and he wore black pants with tape and a pouch on the right side of his leg. He wore sandals and had a giant scroll tied to his back.
"We can't underestimate them Sai. I want all of you to face them and show them why they are nothing compared to you and Trinity Raven." They all bowed as Jellal made his announcement to the Fairy Tail wizards and grinned. (Sai's appearance is that of The Last: Naruto The Movie)
"A moment Vidaldus Taka." The rocker of the group stayed behind. "Dispose of Millianna and Wally. I have no use for losers." Taka grinned maniacally and nodded but before he left, Jellal tossed him a black orb.

(Magical Council)
"Are you sure about this Seigrain? Jellal is your brother after all." Hiruzen Sarutobi, was an elderly man of 70 and one of the current members of the Magical Council. He had a small goatee, and wore white robes and a hat with a Kanji. He also had a smoke pipe in his mouth and released a few puffs. (His Hokage Attire, also to those who don't know, Hiruzen was 69 in Naruto and Makarov was 88 at the beginning of Fairy Tail)
"I don't think you of all people should lecture me on family or on morals." Siegrain countered with a glare aimed at the old man.
"He is a member of the council and has done much for our country." Yajima interjected, he was a supporter of Fairy Tail and Makarov's old friend. He was suspicious of Seigrain and Ultear because of strangely they acted and spied on them before.
"And he also let his people to ruin and ruined countless lives. Innocent children suffered because of his mistakes all because he allowed Danzo Shimura to live." Seigrain said the latter's name like it was bile.
"For that I am truly sorry. I thought he could be reasoned with but I realised that he was too much into his extremist ways and saw corruption everywhere, except within himself. He was a precious comrade and because of that my guild was destroyed." He then possessed a stern expression. "All I ask is that you consider all your options and not make any haste decisions." Siegrain looked down and then looked at the old man with determination in his eyes.
"I appreciate your concerns Lord Sarutobi but my brother is far too gone to be reasoned with. While it pains me, firing Etherion is the only way." He then looked at everyone. "We must vote and decide on the best course of action."
'From what Yajima told me, Siegrain and Ultear are up to something. Now either is a good actor or he is telling the truth. I must remain vigilant.' He smoked his pipe and waited for the other members' answers. Ultear gave her support to Jellal while they were all deciding on a vote.
(Tower of Heaven with Natsu and the others)
Jellal had made an announcement that the Magic Council will fire Etherion within 30 minutes and that they have that long to defeat him and his warriors to survive. The fairies and Juvia split up into two, Juvia and Lucy, while Gray was on his own.
Sho trapped Erza in one of his cards. He vowed to protect Erza and defeat Jellal by himself. He briefly blinded Simon and ran off to face Jellal on his own. Sho found himself by an indoor lake and bridge, where the only female member of Trinity Raven, Ikaruga stood in front of him and was ready to kill him.
(With Lucy and Juvia)
'Love rival!' Juvia stared at Lucy with and intense gaze which made the blonde girl shiver. Suddenly they were attacked by another member of Trinity Raven, Fukuro, the owl man. He used jets to float above them and then launch a fist at the. Juvia grabbed Lucy and dodged the attack.
Lucy thanked Juvia, who remained stoic and knew that they couldn't be so lax in front of the enemy whose abilities they didn't know anything about.
(Natsu and Happy's location)
"You some kind of weird pervert or are you just a wannabe rocker?" Was Natsu's intelligent response when being confronted by Vidaldus Taka who looked indignant at Natsu's words.
"Go to hell! I am Vidaldus Taka of the glorious Trinity Raven and part of Death Head's Caucus!" He then posed dramatically or his attempt of dramatic. "Rock and roll has been knocked over its ass, this is Heavy Metal!"
"Have a taste of my Guitar Magic! I call this one Rock of the Succubus!" He released a purple mist mixed with the sound distortions, which took control of Millianna and Wally, they both now wore punk rock attires, Wally now having a mohawk and Millianna wearing leather. They also had much paler skin and make up.
"Hell, hell, hell we'll send you to hell!" Millianna exclaimed gleefully but wasn't in control of her body.
"This is hell!" Wally also possessed a crazy look.
"He turned them into punks. I thought blockhead was ugly before." Natsu commented with an annoyed look. "Plus I beat these guys already before, what makes you think they can beat me now?"
"Because I Vidaldus Taka, am also your opponent and one of the best assassin's in my guild. I killed several people and you'll just be another stain on the wall just like them." He boasted and laughed psychotically. "I will send you to hell again and again!"
"You killed people? For money?" Natsu's bang overshadowed his eyes to show how disturbed he was by the rocker's lack of empathy. Happy, who stayed silence for once was also appalled by the information.
"Idiot! What do you think it means to be an assassin? I mean it was never personal but I will enjoy causing a catfight with those other women that came with you after I'm done with you." He added fuel to the fire which was also the final straw for Natsu. "Especially the blonde girl. I will enjoy her screams right before my puppets kill her slowly."
"What did you say?" Natsu spoke lowly but enough for them to hear him. His body was covered with fierce flames, his eyes showing great rage and appeared too demonic, frightening all three of Natsu's opponents.
'He's a monster!' Vidaldus took some steps back and ordered the equally frightened Wally and Millianna to attack. They reluctantly did so but Natsu was behind them and slammed them both to the ground. 'Fast!'
"You want to hurt my friends and you killed innocent people for money? There's no way you're getting away with it." He turned his head to glare at the rocker and walked forward, slowly as Taka continued to back away.
'What is he? He hasn't even landed a hit on me, yet I'm already losing this battle.' Taka was ready to pee himself. 'I would need the power of a demon to beat him.'
'Then I will grant you that power.' Jellal's voice was in Taka's head. Before the rocker could ask what he meant, he was silenced by Jellal's voice once more. 'I gave you a Shadow Stone, did I not? Use it, otherwise you'll lose.'
'Shadow Stone! The same one said to be imbued with dark magic and gives the user the power of a demon. To defeat this man, I must become a demon!' He took out the Shadow Stone and became surrounded by dark energy. He became a beast with red marks and his hairs strands were swirling in the air. The stone was in his chest and was glowing red, his new appearance matching his new height of 8 feet.
"He became a monster!" Happy finally spoke after a long silence, which is surprising considering Happy can't keep his mouth shut.
"I'm still kicking his ass." Natsu ignited his fists, ready to fight. Taka's hair moved swiftly and went in to impale Natus, whom grabbed Happy and dodged, the attack hitting the wall behind them.
(Sonic 06 OST-Kingdom Valley) (I'll leave my explanation at the footnotes at the end of the chapter)
"I would've been shish-kebab!" Happy commented as Natsu dodged the hair strikes and carried Happy, whose heart was racing from almost being impaled. He was confident that Natsu could take the monster down but only if he could land a hit, which he wasn't even attempting at all. 'Natsu isn't attacking at all, what is he doing?' Taka stopped using his hairs and starting using his claws to attack Natsu who dropped Happy and began exchanging blows.
"Happy! Get those two out of here right now!" Natsu told his friend as his flames covered his fists and he was holding his own against the strengthened rocker. 'He's a lot stronger. That stone gave him a power boost, a big one. But I can't fight him without hurting Happy and those two on the floor.'
"What do you me…" Happy then noticed Millianna and Wally on the floor. "Oh! I get it! okay leave it to me!" His wings appeared and he first picked up Millianna over himself and then Wally. "Kick his butt Natsu!" He flew off in great speed as Natsu was currently grappling with the monstrous Taka. (Happy can lift Natsu and Lucy, so it shouldn't be outside the realm of possibility)
"Now that they're out of the way, I can fight you seriously!" He tossed the beast over his shoulder and followed him through. Taka went through the wall but came out nearly unscathed. Taka began to gather air and sent a strong shockwave at the approaching Natsu. Natsu was sent flying but he rebounded. "Like that's going to…!" Natsu winced in pain as he felt his left arm crack slightly. 'My bones, it felt like they cracked. Did his attack do this?'
(Jellal's Location)
"Originally his Rock of Succubus spell, he changed it into an offensive attack, it basically becomes a force which sends the opponent flying. However instead of external damage, it deals with internal damage, mainly the bones. In exchange for this power he loses his humanity, not that he had any of course." He then looked at Natsu retaliating with fire enhanced kicks and punches. "His left arm still functions, looks like his bones haven't cracked. His durability and recovery rate is extraordinary, I can see why Ultear praised him during their fight at Galuna Island."
(Back to Natsu vs Monster-Taka)
"You're one tough bastard!" Natsu landed an uppercut which made Taka retaliate with his left claw but Natsu's body ignited with flames burnt his claws, causing him to his in pain. Their battle caused a lot of damage to the area as Natsu headbutted the monster. "But you won't beat me! I'll beat you, then Erza and then you Naruto!" Natsu ran towards him with his arms by his back, producing a large stream of fire in each hand. "Fire Dragon's Wing Attack!" The blunt force sent Taka flying through the ceiling as Natsu was on one knee.
Natsu channelled flames onto his feet and shot off like a jet. He saw Taka falling, barely conscious but still ready to fight as he launched his hair spikes one last time. Natsu landed one last Fire Dragon's Iron Fist and finally the dark aura receded as Taka changed back to normal, the stone shattered completely.
(Ost End)
Natsu saw Taka unconscious on the ground. "What the hell?" He saw parts of his fallen enemies' skin become black and him starting to cough in pain. Taka eventually stopped and became unconscious once again. "Looks like that stone of yours wasn't worth it. Now time to find Lucy and the others!" He ran from his current location and went to find his friends.
(With Jellal)
Jellal knocked over one of his chess pieces, signifying Taka's defeat. "I even gave you the Shadow Stone, but you still failed. Natsu Dragneel, you are truly a foe that I cannot underestimate." He looked to the orb and saw Sai confront Gray. "No this is a match worth watching."
(Magic Council)
'I only need a majority vote and I already possess 4 votes including me and Ultear.' He was willing to wait longer as Seigrain remained calm. Sarutobi called for a short recession and seemed to be suspicious of them, just as Yajima was.
'Those old geezers are annoying, Yajima by himself isn't a threat but Sarutobi is a different story. After all, he was a former Wizard Saint and once hailed as the Professor. He may be weaker now but he is every bit as powerful as Makarov.' Seigrain saw Ultear and she greeted him.
"We need to speed up the process and we cannot waste any more time than we already have." She stated in a strict tone and left no room for argument with her. "Let's go, the recess is almost over. If push comes to shove, we'll tell them the truth."
'Careful, we don't know if we're being watched. Sarutobi is a Master of Stealth, only the most talented of sensors could sense him when he's trying.' Seigrain communicated telepathically with Ultear just to make sure they weren't being watched by a eavesdropper.
They walked back as Sarutobi stepped out of the shadows, still smoking his pipe. 'Those two are definitely up to something.' He placed his right middle finger and index finger on his temple. 'Yajima, contact whoever you need. We may have to subdue those two and Seigrain is not someone I can face alone let alone with Ultear.'
Yajima took out a lacrima. "Macky, I need to borrow Naruto for a while."
(Gray's location)
Gray found himself outside the tower by the steps. He began to walk up the steps until he narrowly dodged a giant bird. "My, my. You dodged, most people wouldn't notice until it was too late." Sai was atop the bird which dissipated once he jumped down.
'He created that bird. Maker Magic maybe?' Gray took his fighting stance. 'I don't think I can take it easy on this guy.' Gray than noticed Sai's facial features. 'His smile is so fake and pretty creepy.'
"So you're a Fairy Tail wizard? The guild that Naruto is a part of?" Sai drew out a brush and scroll, then took a stance. Gray was a little surprised that Sai knew Naruto somehow and questioned him.
"How do you know Naruto?" He was wary of how Sai would answer and had no reason to believe whatever Sai would say.
"I will tell if you can defeat me in battle. Though I doubt you can, so I might tell you before I kill you." Sai still retained his creepy smile and started drawing rapidly, summoning lion-beasts as Gray created an ice blade.
End.
Sorry for this long update, I will update regularly soon but only when I have free time. I am ending a few of my stories, mainly Rise of A Mage in my next chapter and Fullmetal Mage since I feel I cannot do it justice since it takes elements from the greatest anime (in my opinion) of all time.
I have some news, I am attending University again and that takes precedent over my stories. I am studying Pharmaceutical Science (yes, seriously) which I can tell you isn't necessarily easy but I will try my best. So if I'm not updating as much, that and work will be the reason why. Also I apologise for the slow update this time, it shouldn't have taken this long.
Also I have held up a poll for Zangetsu's (OC Character from an earlier chapter if you remember) Curse or one of them.
Counter Curse-This reflects magic attacks back at the opponent with greater than twice the force. Taken from Nanatsu no Tazai, it will have all the techniques.
Transfiguration Curse-Zangetsu manipulates his selected weapon and change its shape to any weapon. He can also transmute materials and create constructs from the ground. Based on alchemy from Fullmetal Alchemist and King's Disaster ability from Nanatsu no Tazai.
Soul Curse-Anyone who Zangetsu kills, their souls are devoured by him. He can use the souls in different ways, for example they strengthen his power and gains their skills. He can summon their soulless bodies to fight for him or he can devour their souls completely to power up.
Those are the choices and the first two are in the lead with a vote each, so make it count. Thank you for those who have stayed with me and read my stories, I appreciate it. Also I know I have put reviews where I offer constructive criticism, writing a story takes a while to perfect and it isn't easy. For this I am trying to make my story different while making it simple to read.
Please leave a review but no flames, either positive reinforcement or constructive criticism.
