Chapter 20

"S-Someone please save Lily!" Shagotte shouted in concern seeing Lily fall. She wanted to go herself but one of the elders were stopping her.

"Queen, leave him to me!" A female Exceed said before diving down toward Lily.

"Scarlet!" Knightwalker shouted angrily challenging her to a fight.

"Knightwalker..." Erza replied.

"Wait, Erza." Mystogan stated getting her attention. "You intend to aim your spear at me, the Prince of Edolas, Erza Knightwalker?"

Knightwalker gritted her teeth but didn't response. Everything has at a stand still since Mystogan still had authority as their prince since the king wasn't revoked it.

"Prince, you say? Don't make me laugh! I don't think of you as a son!" The kings voice boomed around them. "After 7 years of hiding in faraway lands, you have some nerve skulking back here! I know that you've been going around Earthland sealing off Anima! You've betrayed your country! You sold out your own kingdom!"

"Your Anima plan was a failure. Contunuing to fight would be meaningless, yes?" Mystogan replied.

The ground in the ruins of an area glowed. "Meaning? The meaning of fighting? This is not a fight! It is retaliation against those who defy the King! A one-sided extermination!" Some kind of egg appeared out of the ground with chains attach to it. "No matter who stands in my way, I will eliminate them. Even you! There won't be any tace left!"

"Father..."

"I am no father. I am the King of Edolas! Yes... I'll wipe you out here, and then no one will be left to stop the Anima in Earthland! I'll suck up another giant lacrima, and then fuse it with the Exceed! I can do it as many times as I want!" The egg opened and turned into some kind of dragonoid.

"No you can't!" Tsuna shouted bringing attention to himself. "You expect us from Earthland to just let you get away with this. You take our people and try to sacrifice them for your stupid cause. That is a delcarition of war to us King of Edolas. And let me tell you this about us from Earthland." Tsuna cracked his knuckles. "Winning against impossible odds is kind of our thing."

"Stupid cause?" The king stated gritting his teeth. "How dare you?!" he roared "Open fire! Capture the Exceeds!"

"Yes sir!" The soldiers open fired with the strange weapons they had.

"Crap. Run away!" Mystogan shouted to the Exceeds who didn't hesitant to do so. However several Exceeds were already hit and turned into lacrima's.

"We'll protect the Exceeds from the Royal Army!" Erza stated to everyone on top of Coco's Legion. "Attack Knightwalker's forces!"

"Right!" Lucy answered before turning to Natsu. "Oh yeah... You don't get queasy when riding this Legion... Did you have Troia cast on you to help your motion sickness?"

"What?!" Natsu shouted. "T-This guy's like one of our buddies, right? Stop treating it like transportation! That's cold." Natsu replied, but with how sick he looked it wasn't very believable.

"Enough pointless banter for now. What will we do about that giant thing?" Gray called out.

"Don't call it pointless!"

"It's pointless to even try and face it! Magic won't work on it!" Coco explained.

"You'll just have to dodge it. The Exceeds are defenseless now! If we don't protect them now..." Mystogan introduced.

"Protect them while dodging me? I won't let a single human escape! I'll blast ever last one of you to bits!" The Dragon Knight mouth opened and fired a roar like attack.

"Three Layered Magic Circle. Mirror Water!" Magic circles appeared in front of Mystogan and reflected the attack back at the Dragon Knight. However it did not damage it, the king then fired another shot hitting Mystogan making him fall.

"So do we want to sent in the Dragon Slayers already? Or do you want me to handle this?" Tsuna asked surprising everyone. None of them notice he was on the Legion.

"Of course!" Erza stated forgetting about that. When you're fighting a dragon, you send in the Dragon Slayers. Natsu, Wendy, and Gajeel got the hint and jumped down without the others noticing. "But how would you fight it Tsuna?" She asked curiously.

"Simple. My magic is similar to Dragon Slayer Magic so I might be able to damage it. However if not, it's armor protects against magic not the heat generated from it. I would just create enough heat to cook the King inside until he either comes out on his own or passes out." Tsuna explained making the others blink in surprise, they didn't think about that.

"That... That's brilliant!" Lucy stated. They were all thinking about how to damage it from the outside.

Erza nodded approvally. "Agreed."

As Natsu and the other Dragon Slayers fought with the Dragon Knight, they flew toward the Exceeds to save them from the Royal Army.

"I've been waiting for you Scarlet!" Knightwalker called out.

"Waiting for me?" Erza questioned before they saw other Legion surrounding them.

"Crap, it was a trap!"

"Dodge Legipyon!" Coco shouted.

Legipyon flew upwards as they came under fire. Sadly Legipyon took a hit to the belly making all of them fall off.

Tsuna took this moment to grab Erza's hand and spun around before throwing her toward one of the enemies Legions. Tsuna then flew downwards and caught Coco while Carla grabbed Gray and Happy got Lucy.

When they landed Tsuna glanced back to see both Erza were fighting on a different island while the rest of the Royal Army was heading their way.

"Get ready for a fight." Tsuna called out while everyone got back on their feet.

Two shots were fired at them signaling the arrive of the Royal Army that had them surrounded. They quickly dodge but several of the solider then fired those weapons that turn the Exceeds into lacrima at Happy and Carla who were quick to dodge.

"Fire Phoenix Flame Seekers" Those phoenixes flew right at those weapons and destroyed them before the Royal Army could do anything.

"Nice Tsuna!" Gray called out as he took out a few solider with his ice.

More Legions flew overhead with reinforcements on them, luckily though the landed a bit away from the fighting so they could dismount safety.

"Damn it, reinforcements. I'll go take care of them!" Tsuna said running toward the Legions taking out any soldiers in his way.

"Good luck Tsuna!" Lucy shouted before using her new wipe on the soldiers.

The moment Tsuna arrived where the solider were he created a circle of flames trapping them all with him. The soldiers took aim to take out Tsuna but froze in fear when they were hit with Tsuna's killing intent.

"Sorry, I'm not the biggest fan of using killing intent. But I'm not in the greatest mood at the moment. The treatment of the other guild members, taking my family and planning on sacrificing them, and what your doing to the Exceeds." Tsuna glared at them with a red glint in his eye. "So be prepared, this is going to hurt." With that Tsuna charged.

He made short work of the reinforcements and was able to go back to the others when he notice a tree come out of the ground with the Fairy Tail symbol on it. Smiling that the Edolas Fairy Tail is leading them a hand Tsuna decided to track down Mystogan.

Looking around for any sign of him he got luckily and saw Mystogan and Lily flying down toward the Royal Palace. Tsuna quickly jumped off the island he was one and flew down to caught up with the two.

"Mystogan!" Tsuna shouted getting his attention before he entered the palace.

"Tsuna?" Mystogan said in surprise. "Should you be helping the others?"

"Nah, Edolas Fairy Tail are backing them up so they'll be fine." Tsuna explained before pulling out a book. "I have an idea on what you're going to do, so I want to give this to you while I still have the chance."

Mystogan blinked before taking the book. "What's in it?" He asked before opening the book.

"Everything I could remember about my old world's technology. It's not perfect or complete, but it's a starting point at least." He made sure to put warning out the effects different things they can do will have on the environment. He rather they know before they try anything.

Mystogan eyes widen before smiling and putting the book away. "Thank you Tsuna. This will help greatly. I'll make sure it gets into the right hands."

"Um, who are you?" Lily asked feeling left out.

Tsuna turned to him and smiled. "My name is Tsuna. I'm a member of Earthland's Fairy Tail."

Lily nodded. "Patherlily, but I go by Lily."

"It's nice to meet you Lily." Tsuna said before looking at Mystogan. "So shall we get started?"

"Yes we shouldn't waste anymore time." Mystogan answered before heading in toward the Anima Control Center.

"Wait. Prince, what are you going to do?" Lily asked in concern. There was only a few things you can do in the ACC.

Mystogan turned to Lily. "I observed Earthland for a long time. There was strife, but it was a wonderful world. I am sure they'll accept this..."

Lily eyes widen in realization. "Prince! You can't mean... That's just... That is far too radical!"

"This is the only way to rid this world of war. I will create a world where people can be open with each other. I'm going to throw the Anima in reverse and rid this world of magic power!" With that Mystogan began his work.

"Prince! Please think this through. You Tsuna, please change the princes mind." Lily pleaded.

Tsuna shook his head. "I'm with Mystogan on this. Right now magic power is causing people to suffer due to it being limited. The king has gone mad in his attempts to bring forth more magic to this world. He tried to kill my friends and family without a care and I don't doubt he'll gladly sacrifice others for just a little more magic for himself."

Lily looked down in shame. He couldn't deny any of that, the king just tried to kill his people for more magic power and people from another world. All without a single care for them. Not just that, he also knows how strict and unfair they have been to people outside the Royal City and to those who break the no magic law.

The light of magic appeared showing it flowing away from Edolas due to the Anima. "It seem cruel and extreme and no doubt there will be mass panic. However life can continue without magic. Tsuna has proven this to me. But we still need to calm the the people, for that we will need both a hero and a villain. The villain same take the blame for ridding this world of magic, while the hero will bring them to justice and become the new king and unite the people.

I have already choose my role. I shall become the villain who overthrow the king and took away this world's magic. And Lily, you shall be the hero that shall unite the humans and Exceeds together. You will execute me, the one that destroyed the world. And become the world's king!"

Both Tsuna and Lily's eyes widen.

"Oi Mystogan. I agreed with getting rid of magic in this world, but I'm not going to let you become the villain and die because of it." Tsuna protested.

"I'm sorry Tsuna, but this is the way it needs to be." Mystogan replied sadly.

"How can you say such nonsense? Prince!" Lily roared angrily.

Tsuna was about to say something as well but notice Nady watching them worried. Tsuna looked at him and mouth 'Dragon Slayers' to him. Nady understood what Tsuna was asking and nodded before rushing off.

"If I wasn't prepared to die. I won't have done all of this." Mystogan stated trying to show his resolve.

"I refuse! This is foolishness! Why must I kill you?" Memories of when he saved the Prince came to mind making his angrier. "There is no way I could do it."

"No, you are capable of doing it."

"And what do you know about me?"

"As an Exceed, you saved my life as a child. You are a man who knows how precious life is, regardless of the race one belongs to."

"And you're asking him to take your life Mystogan." Tsuna shouted. "You're asking Lily who understands just how precious life is to take the life of a good person, one that he saved years ago, and accept it. Do you know what you're asking him to live with for the rest of his life?"

Mystogan clench his fist. "I know, but I don't see any other way."

"I do." Tsuna stated. "Those of us from Earthland shall take the blame of taking Edolas magic away." Mystogan eyes widen at that. "We'll take the credit for as retribution for trying to sacrifice our people and so that it would be impossible for it to happen again. You will face us and then sent us back to Earthland saying that you are banishing us from Edolas forever. We'll be the villain and you can be the hero and no one will die."

Silence fell upon them for a moment. "Then this go with that." Lily said liking this plan much more then the other.

Mystogan looked away for a moment before nodding. "Yes, but how shall we do it. We must calm the people soon or things will get worst. That leaves us with little to no time to find the others."

Tsuna grinned as he heard footsteps. "Don't worry that's already covered."

"Captain Pantherlily, we have a big problem!" a soldier shouted rushing into the room.

Lily looked back toward him. "We know. As you can see, the Anima..."

"You're trying to stop it, right?"

"No, that's not it."

"Anyway, there are people wreaking havoc in the castle city. Cities are being destroyed one after another..." The soldier explain.

Mystogan and Lily looked at Tsuna who was still grinning knowing that that Exceed delivered the message. Natsu, Wendy, and Gajeel should be causing some damage and bringing attention onto themselves so they can play the part of the villain. "Why are you looking at me? Both of you should go see what's going on."

"Very well. Let's go." Mystogan said as the three began to leave ignoring the soldier as he question who Tsuna and Mystogan were.

The rushed outside to where they can see and they were surprised at how things looked.

"How many people are rioting?" Lily asked one of the soldiers.

"Three sir!"

"Three people? Why haven't you stop them?" Lily questioned.

The soldier started to answer but was cut off at the sound of Natsu trying and failing to do a good evil laugh. Tsuna just shook his head. To do a good evil laugh you don't just laugh a certain way, you need to have an evil thought with the intent to care it out along with the correct evil aura around you. Do that and you get a perfect evil laugh.

"I am the Great Demon King Dragneel! I've taken all this world's magic power!" Natsu shouted on top of a building with the King of Edolas tied up next to him.

Both Mystogan and Lily were surprised to see Natsu while Tsuna just facepalmed. "Seriously Natsu." He mumbled to himself. Really, Great Demon King? Just say you're from Earthland or a Dragon Slayer. He's really overdone the villain thing to the point it's just not believable. Luckily everyone was in to much of a panic to think straight.

Natsu called out Mystogan bringing the crowd attention to the prince. With no choice Mystogan rushed over to confront Natsu while Tsuna and Lily stayed behind.

"You planned this. Didn't you?" Lily acussed.

"Yep!" Tsuna admitted. "Thanks for the help by the way." Tsuna said turning around.

"Nady?" Lily said surprised to see him.

"No problem. I'm just glad to be of help." Nady replied.

They watched as Natsu and Mystogan fought while Natsu gave Mystogan the Fairy Tail Farewell Ceremony making Tsuna smile. Mystogan seem to understand the message.

Once Natsu went down his along all of those from Earthland and the Exceeds began to glow.

"Looks like it's time." Tsuna stated. "Though I didn't think the Exceeds would be joining us. Guess it makes sense though since you can use magic like us."

With that they began to float upward toward the Anima.

"Lucy, Happy, Tsuna!" Natsu called out floating up next to them.

After a quick greeting Natsu, Wendy, and Gajeel pretended to be hurting and beaten making Tsuna sigh.

"There is such of thing as overacting." Tsuna commented getting a laugh from Gray, Lucy and Happy.

Everyone said there goodbyes before finally being suck into the Anima and returning to Earthland.

Upon exiting the Anima they all feel to the ground making a pile with poor Natsu on the bottom. However no one seem to mind since looking around they can easily tell they were back in Earthland.

"Everything back to normal!" Natsu said happily seeing Magnolia back in one piece.

"It's too early to rejoice. We need to check on everyone first." Erza stated.

"Everyone fine!" A Exceed called out bring everyone attention to them. "We got here just a little before you and check it out. No one seem to notice anything happened."

"Why... Why are the Exceeds in Earthland?" Carla asked shocked like everyone else besides Tsuna.

"Carla you and Happy are Exceeds, it would make sense that they would be here as well. Plus did none of you see the Exceeds get pulled into the Anima, there were like a hundred of them." Tsuna stated rather surprised. Is seeing a hundred cats getting sucked into the sky hard to miss?

"They're dangerous! We should sent them back!" Carla stated once everyone calmed down.

Happy and Wendy tried to reason with her while the other Exceeds apologize for their action. However Carla didn't change her mind.

"You sent me to Earthland with orders to eliminate the Dragon Slayer!" Carla excused making a few of the other Exceeds to voice out as well about that.

Tsuna however sighed that no one figured it out. "Carla you were never give that order."

Carla looked at Tsuna in shock. "So you figured that out as well Tsuna." Shagotte said with a smile.

Tsuna nodded. "I don't know if you know this but Shagotte can see the future. She saw what happened to Edolas when magic ran out and thought it was the end of Edolas. So she did what she thought was best and gathered up all the Exceed eggs and used the Anima to sent them to Earthland where they would be safe."

Shagotte nodded. "Yes what Tsuna said is true. Six years ago I saw that future and we created a fake plan of sending Exceeds to Earthland to kill the Dragon Slayers. We couldn't tell anyone the truth or we risk causing a panic. Everyone I'm sorry for the pain I caused you." She said the last part with guilt and bowed.

"But, then, why?" Carla asked confused.

"Carla, you have a power similar to mine. You can see the future. But you seem to activate it subconsciously and confuse it with your own memories. You most likely saw fragments of Edolas future and thought it was a mission." Shagotte explained.

"But why do I have a power like yours?" Carla asked.

Shagotte and the elders however just looked away and try to dodge the question. Tsuna sweatdrop, who are they trying to fool, it's a dead give away that Carla is Shagotte daughter. Really even when they were saying goodbye Shagotte hugged Carla.

"Okay! Let's return to the guild!" Natsu said happily while he, Lucy, Gray, and Erza somehow picked up on Nady habit of shaking his right arm.

"How should we report this?" Lucy asked concerned.

"But, no on noticed what happened, right?" Gray added as to why bothered.

"But we can't keep quiet about what happened to Mystogan." Erza stated.

"Everyone, your hand." Wendy commented with a sweatdrop.

"Just leave them." Tsuna responsed.

"Hold it a sec! Where is Lily? I ain't seen Patherlily around anywhere!" Gajeel called out making Tsuna notice that he hasn't seen the Exceed since they arrived.

"If you want me, I'm right here." Lily called out.

However when everyone saw him they saw he was the size of Happy and Carla now. "Dinky!" They all shouted in shock.

"It seems as if Earthland does not match well with my constitution. However. Right now, I want to join this guild that took care of the Prince. You'll keep your promise and get me in? Right, Gajeel?" Lily asked.

Erza nodded to Gajeel who smiled and hugged Lily. Tsuna however wonder what was with the rope in Lily's hand.

"Now, about another matter... I caught someone suspicious." Lily stated as he pulled on the rope.

"Wait! I-I'm not... anyone... suspicious..." A female voice called out as she was pulled out of the bush with her hands tied. "Hey! I'm a member of Fairy Tail, too..."

Natsu and Tsuna's eye widen seeing who it was. "Lisanna?" Natsu called out.

"But that impossible..." Gray added with wide eyes as well as he and Erza caught on.

"Lisanna!" Erza said surprise unsure to believe it.

Tsuna was sure of it though. Only those with the ability to use magic without a item would have been taken by the Anima. He didn't know how, but this was their Lisanna. Tears appeared in his eye, for two years they all thought she was dead, for her to be alive.

Lisanna turned to Natsu before tackling him into a hug shouting his name. "Finally, I get to see you... I get to see the real Natsu." She said with tears in her eyes on top of Natsu.

"Happy! It's me Lisanna!" She said quickly moving to Happy giving him a hug before looking toward Gray, Erza, and Tsuna. "And Gray, Erza, Tsuna... How long has it been? Wow, this brings back so much!" She turned to Lucy and Wendy. "These are new guild members I gather? A little Wendy... And Lucy?"

"Hold on a sec... Don't tell me you're... Our Lisanna?" Gray asked completely shocked in realization.

"Yeah." Lisanna answered with a small nod.

"You came back from the dead!" Natsu cheered and went to hug Lisanna only to be stopped by Erza.

"We all thought you died two years ago. I can't believe you've come back from the dead." Erza said wanting Lisanna to explain things.

"I never died. Two years ago... I suspect that I was sucked into an Anima then... At the time, there should have been a lot of small Anima around Earthland, I bet. When I came to in Edolas, I was shocked. Everyone was a little different, but there were familiar face right there. Plus, everyone assumed I was Edolas's Lisanna. I figured that Edolas's Lisanna had already died. I could tell from the way the guild treated me.

I didn't understand at the time, but when I think about it now, perhaps the Anima was trying to complete something Edolas lacked, by sucking me up when their Lisanna died. I couldn't say the truth. I pretended to be Edolas's Lisanna. I was unsure at first, but soon my memories got jumped, and I learned bit by bit about Edolas. Together with everyone, I got used to the way of life in Edolas. Then, after two years passed. Six days ago Earthland Natsu and Happy showed up." Lisanna explained looking at Natsu and Happy at the end.

"Back then? Why didn't you tell us the truth then?" Natsu asked.

"I just couldn't..." Lisanna admitted. "I decided that I was going to live in Edolas, but I got sucked up by the Anima. That's when I learned that Edolas Mira and Elfman knew that I wasn't their Lisanna. They told me to be with my real brother and sister so they couldn't cry anyone. It broke my heart when I saw Mira break down after that." Lisanna said crying.

Tsuna walked over to Lisanna and put a hand on her shoulder. "You should go to them. They should be at Kardia Cathedral."

Lisanna looked back at Tsuna and nodded and ran off. The rest of them followed and couldn't stop smiling when they saw Lisanna, Mira, and Elfman hugged.

"Welcome home! Lisanna!" Mira said happily as she cried.

That's all for now! Leave a review if you want. Until next time o/
