Chapter 38: Cavalry's Here

The Resistance Base…

Spiral and the gang arrived to the base with Spiral followed by Wendy and Carla meeting with Team Natsu in the briefing room. The team waited for the trio and Happy rushes over to Carla who had a rough fight.

"Carla, are you ok?" Happy asked.

"I am child, thank you for asking." Carla responded.

"If you like I can help you feel better."

"Thanks but I'll pass."

Happy frowned in sadness.

Erza approach to Wendy and checks up on her adoptive daughter.

"Are you all right, Wendy?" Erza asked.

"Yeah. I'm fine, thanks to Spiral who helped me feel better. I was sad at first but he comforted me." Wendy admitted.

"That's great to hear."

"Wendy, I can't believe you turned in Dragon Force 2! How the heck did that happen?" Natsu asked.

"Well… something ticked me off and sent me on the edge. Thanks to Sonic's encouragement, I unleashed my full potential."

"Oh man, now I gotta work extra work to get a newer level. This stinks."

"We're just glad that you guys are ok." Lucy said.

"Yeah man, we thought something bad happen to you guys." Gray added.

"Don't worry, we're fine. Unfortunately, we couldn't take back Hargeon and Kagura is recovering from her wounds but she'll be fine. It's just only minor injuries."

"Good to know. That's good news to year. We got to come up with new strategies if we're going to win this war." Erza suggested.

"I know which is why we're thinking about it right now. I talked to Jeff about it too."

"Where is he by the way?" Gray asked.

"He and his team are resting up and refilling their supplies for the next mission."

Kenny walked in and sees everyone here. Carla rushes over and hugs her beloved.

"Kenny." Carla said.

"Hey Carla, good to see that you're ok." Kenny responded.

"Thank you. I'm happy to see you."

"Me too. Anyways, Spiral we got a problem."

"What's up?" Spiral asked.

"Gajeel, Levy and the Shadow Gear have fought one of the 12 Spriggan and killed Gajeel. Also, Laxus and the Thunder Legion had finished up with their mission and defeated one of the 12 Spriggan."

"What… Gajeel's dead?"

"Yeah."

"Damn it! Now we lost another friend from those bastards!" Gray yelled.

"Please calm down Gray."

"Now I'm really pissed off. I'm ready to kill a bitch." Natsu cursed.

"So what's the problem Kenny?" Spiral questioned crossing his arms.

"Well. Jura and the Lamia Scale had finish fighting off the alvarez guards in the outskirts of Hargeon Town but apparently, they've spotted Scythe who is heading south. He appears to be heading off to the resistance camp to take out our comrades. Plus, I just got word from Jura that Acnologia is alive and killed one of the dragon slayers who is spotted during the battlefield."

"Wait didn't Sonic killed Acnologia?" Lucy asked.

"That's what I said."

"This is getting very difficult for our resistance." Erza said.

"Yeah. It is and we're on the tight spot. Soon Scar and the Legion will win."

"That's not going to happen. Not until I kicked that bastard's ass for killing Sonic!" Natsu shouted.

"Get in line pal, I'm the one that's going to beat Scar." Gray countered.

"Guys! There's no time for arguing right now." Lucy stated.

"Lucy's right, we have much to do and we have to stay focus if we're going to win this war." Erza agreed earning nods from the others.

"Good. Now I'm heading over to the resistance camp and take care of Scythe myself." Spiral volunteered.

"What? But you know what Scythe can do." Kenny said.

"Yeah but what choice do we have. Without Sonic, we have to do whatever it takes to beat those punks down. I'll fight Scythe by myself. I still got a score to settle with him and then after that, I'm coming for Scar."

Spiral then gear himself up and ready to fight but Kenny stopped him.

"But you're our commander. If you die, who's going to lead the resistance?" Kenny asked.

"I am." Erza volunteered.

"You?" Lucy repeated.

"Yes. Is there a problem?"

"No ma'am."

"Then its settle, I'm leaving right now." Spiral said getting ready to leave.

"Wait. Let me come with you." Wendy said.

"No. You still need to recover from your fight with Dimaria. I'll take it from here."

"Just be careful Spiral." Lucy warned.

"Yeah, we don't want you go dying on us. We can't lose another." Gray added.

"Don't worry, I won't." Spiral retorted.

With that, Spiral exits out to help the resistance to face off Scythe and try to force him to retreat.


Alvarez Empire Hideout…

Brandish checks up on the defeated Dimaria who was recovering from the wounds she received from the sky sisters back at Hargeon Town.

"Damn it! Those rats did a number on me. I'm going to make them pay for pissing me the fuck off." Dimaria said sitting up.

"You mustn't push yourself otherwise you'll reopen your wounds. You have to rest."

"Screw that! When I get my hands on those Fairy Tail chumps, they're going to wish they never fuck with the wrong woman like me."

Dimaria try to get up but winced when she felt the pain occurred.

"Like I said, you need to rest. Don't be an idiot." Brandish scowled.

"Fuck!" Dimaria cursed.

Soon Zeref and Invel enter inside the infirmary.

"Brandish is right, you need to rest if you want to be healed." Zeref ordered.

"Yes sir, sire." Dimaria complied.

"Sir, We lost Bloodman. I just got word from his squad." Invel reported.

"Is that so? He gave up his life to fight for us."

"He also killed one of the dragon slayers of Fairy Tail."

"Is it Natsu?"

"No. An iron dragon slayer named Gajeel."

"I see."

"And other than that, we've manage to had the resistance to fall back. Legion helped took back Hargeon Town."

"Good. There are in a losing end and soon they'll lose the war. Any updates about how we can get to Magnolia since it's barricaded in a special magic barrier?"

"No but we're still working on it."

"I must have Mavis Vermillion in order to complete my goal. Failure is not an option."

"Consider it done."

"My squad are looking and searching some any spells, hopefully we can find a way to break through the magic barrier." Brandish reported.

"Good. Keep looking, I want Mavis Vermillion and that barrier taken down soon as possible."

"Of course."

"What about me?" Dimaria asked.

"Rest up if you want to take action against the resistance." Zeref ordered.

With that, Invel and Brandish follow Zeref out of the infirmary.

"What about Scar, have you contacted him?" Invel asked.

"He's busy at the moment. Oh and he even drop by and drop off the supplies, the shipments we need for our army to resupply against our enemies."

"Good to know. Just in case if we ran out." Brandish commented.

"Indeed. Scar always plan things ahead." Invel agreed.

"True but let's remain our focus on our true objective. We must not allow any distractions to fail our true objective." Zeref ordered.

"Yes, sir." Invel and Brandish complied.


The Resistance Camp…

The resistance fight for their lives, giving it their all against Scythe. However, they are too overwhelm by the death walker as he slaughter many and many of the resistance splattering blood on the ground and destroying the camps in his path leaving nothing but pure destruction. Scythe shot a wave of lime green energy from his scythes once he swung it forward. The projectiles phase through a few more resistance and killing them and destroy more camps.

"All of those screams, the agony, and the blood… ahahahaha… it's beautiful." Scythe said.

"This guy is a monster!"

"No, I'm not a monster…"

Scythe teleported in front of the resistance fighter causing him to jump out in fear.

"I'm the demon itself." Scythe continued.

Scythe readied his scythe for the killing blow. The resistance fighter scream in horror as Scythe stabs him with his scythe and killing him and cutting off his head. Scythe look over to the resistance army and they begin firing their magic weapons or using their magic to takedown Scythe. The death walker readied his dual scythes and begin to deflect every magic bullets and magic coming at him and slowly walk towards them.

"Keep firing, take that goddamn bastard down!"

Scythe continue to deflect their assault for seconds now without breaking a sweat. Finding an opening what he is looking for, Scythe then show a big energy wave from his scythe and blasted the resistance away to the ground. The resistance charge and fight Scythe but the assassin continue his endless slaughter against the resistance, killing them and showing no remorse nor mercy at them. The resistance didn't give up, they continue fighting and Scythe is having a lot of fun killing the resistance and slaughter them creating a blood bath. After killing another fighter for the resistance, Scythe then turn his attention to another camp and prepare to destroy it before continuing with his slaughterhouse.

Out of nowhere, someone appear in full velocity and struck Scythe away from the resistance and the camp with a powerful kick. With enough force it sends Scythe flying a few feet away and hits the ground. Scythe on the other hand launches himself up and lands on the ground, skidding and readied his scythes. He look over to see Spiral making his appearance.

"Spiral! Thank goodness you're here, that crazy maniac killed a lot of our men, our women who sacrificed themselves to fight him off and fight the Legion." The resistance general reported.

"You guys did good, we won't let their sacrifices to be in vain. I'll take it from here, make sure everyone is taken care of." Spiral ordered.

"Understood, sir."

Scythe look to the general before returning his eyes to Spiral behind his mask.

"Well, well it looks like the commander of the resistance has shown up from hiding. Are you here to die and join your deceased cousin?" Scythe said.

"Hell to the fucking no, I'm here to stop you by any means necessary." Spiral countered.

"We all know that's not going to happen."

"Wanna bet!"

*BGM: Blue Stahli – Let's Go*

Spiral dash ahead in full speed using Wind Dragon Boost. The wind dragon slayer engulfs wind into his fist and ready to unleash his spell.

"Wind Dragon Cyclone Fist!" Spiral shouted.

Spiral struck Scythe with his spell but he hits Scythe where he blocks him off with his dual scythes and sends Scythe skidding a feet away from him. Scythe then get into his stance and cracking his neck.

"This wasn't part of my objective. Whatever, I'll kill you here and now and the resistance will be weak. On the other note, you could become quite useful to let us know how to shut down the magic barrier." Scythe said.

"And that's the way to get to Mavis Vermillion then you're dead wrong, no way I will never let you take her!" Spiral countered.

"Then we'll just have to do it the hard way then. Time to meet your demise Spiral the Hedgehog."

Scythe dashes ahead to Spiral and swung his dual scythes at the wind dragon slayer. Spiral dodging the scythes with his reflexes not letting Scythe to land a slash on him. Scythe swung his scythes upward with Spiral dodging the scythes and back flip away from the assassin. Scythe launches up in the air, dives down and slam his scythes down to Spiral but the wind dragon slayer gets out of dodge then lands a blow with his Wind Dragon Cyclone Fist sending the assassin flying. Scythe spin himself, doing an aerial twist and stabs his duals scythe and lands on his feet and skids on the ground.

Scythe readied his dual scythes and charges at Spiral and Spiral charge at Scythe. Both the hedgehog and the echidna clashed with Spiral bashing Scythe with his magic and Scythe blocks Spiral with his scythes. Using his strength, he pushes Spiral away and launches him in the air. Spiral dives down, creating streams of wind from his hands and hurls them over to the pale grey echidna.

"Wind Dragon Wing Attack!" Spirals shouted.

Scythe jumps away, dodging the spell and he shot an energy wave from his scythes at Spiral. It struck Spiral and sending him flying through a destroyed tent and hits the ground. Scythe lands on the ground and dashes after Spiral to do more damage to the commander of the resistance. Scythe dash ahead in a ninja run cycle, going full speed to harm the wind dragon slayer more and complete his mission. Spiral then sees Scythe coming at him, building up some magic, he takes a deep breath and blew a hurricane tornado wind from his mouth using his Wind Dragon Roar. Scythe took caution and launches up in the air then toss one of his dual scythe at the wind dragon slayer.

Spiral barely dodge the scythe and it stab to the ground behind him. Scythe dives down in an air dash and swung his scythe at Spiral. Spiral gets out of dodge and rolls to the ground and get back on his feet. Scythe tosses some throwing knives at Spiral catching him by surprise. Spiral evade the throwing knives, Scythe grabs his dual scythe and dash at the wind dragon slayer and swing his scythes at the resistance commander. Spiral dodge every strike from Scythe and finds an opening seconds after and kicks him up in the air. Spiral launch up after Scythe and struck the assassin with his Wind Dragon Talon by delivering a kick to the death walker then grabs him and tosses him down to the ground with a hard crash. Spiral air dashes after Scythe and engulfs his right fist with wind.

"Wind Dragon Cyclone Impact!" Spiral shouted.

Spiral slams his fist down aiming at Scythe but he gets out of the way as Spiral punches the ground. However, he creates a shockwave of wind from the impact. He then sees Scythe lands back down on his feet to the ground, he then unleash another roar with his magic.

"Wind Dragon Roar!" Spiral shouted.

Knowing that he would get Scythe this time, the Wind Dragon Roar almost hit Scythe to weaken him but Scythe had other plans. He then chuckle a bit and begin to change, his whole entire body change into a black ghost with lime green eyes. This shocked Spiral and Scythe phase through the roar and Spiral appearing behind him. Scythe then changes back and Spiral turn around to face Scythe and delivers a kick but Scythe blocks it off and struck the wind dragon slayer down to the ground.

"What the… how did…" Spiral started.

"That was my Wraith form. I can move like a grim reaper. I have unique powers of my own." Scythe explained.

"I sense some strange energy coming from Scythe. Could it be Chaos Energy?" Spiral thought.

"And to add on to that I do have Chaos Energy, yes. But its Negative energy and I also possess harbinger and necromancer powers too."

"What?! You're some type of grim reaper?"

"You can say that."

Spiral got back up on his feet and stop Scythe. Before he can act, Scythe phase through Scythe in a split second, delivering a powerful slash with his harbinger powers. Spiral screamed in agony, clutching to his right side and felt the impact. Scythe then begin to slash Spiral a few times then somersault kicks the wind dragon slayer up in the air and tosses his scythe at Spiral, commands it with his power it automatic spins and slashing Spiral. Scythe launches up in the air, grabs his scythe and deliver more slashes and lands a powerful that sends Spiral back down to the ground. Spiral hurls his fist for a strike but Scythe dodges Spiral and lands a spinning heel kick on Spiral right in the face and sends him sliding to the ground a few feet.

Scythe shot a big energy wave from his scythes and hit struck Spiral, sending him flying again and hits the ground where the rest of the resistance are. They see Spiral in bad shape and the wind dragon slayer pulls himself up on his feet, struggling to keep his balance. He then glares at Scythe who is slowly walking towards Spiral and the resistance.

"It's over Spiral, give up now, surrender quietly and come with me and I'll allow them to live." Scythe offered.

"Over… my… dead… body…" Scythe struggled.

"Then so be it, you'll die here with the rest of your resistance. You cousin isn't here to save you this time. You'll joining with him soon enough."

"So what? At least I'll die with honor and keep my pride. I may have broken my promise for my cousin but someone will beat you and the resistance will never give up."

"And I shall honor that wish. You have my respect Spiral. Now then, time to die."

Scythe put away his dual scythes and extends his hand out at Spiral and the resistance.

"I'll be coming for the rest of the resistance and finish them off nice and slow." Scythe said channeling his energy.

Scythe creates a massive lime green energy ball with black lightning dancing around. Spiral couldn't do anything but to watch and he slowly kneel down to the ground and gave up his strength.

"Sonic… forgive me… I failed…" Spiral apologized.

"This is farewell."

Scythe blasts his energy ball at Spiral and the resistance.

"Death Bomb!" Scythe shouted.

Spiral braced himself for his demise and the resistance couldn't do anything but could only try to run but they knew that once it impacted Spiral, the explosion will kill them. The Death Bomb was closing in, inches away from Spiral and just about to impact him and explode until suddenly, someone appear out of nowhere in top speed and kicks the death bomb away up in the air and explodes seconds after. Scythe look on to see who's responsible but his expression was shock behind his mask. The resistance braced themselves along with Spiral with their eyes closed. Spiral knew he would die to this day and couldn't keep his promise. Until suddenly, someone spoke to him that would surprise him the most.

"Giving up already, I thought you were better than that." A voice encouraged.

Spiral recognize the voice from anywhere. He shot his eyes open and looks up at the figure standing in front of him facing Scythe. Spiral's eyes bulge like plates, speechless of what he's seeing. The resistance look and couldn't believe their eyes either. What they see is their symbol of hope, their savior, and their hero who had return to save them. It was a blue hedgehog they knew very well and he stood in front of them crossing his arms and facing Scythe.

"No… it can't be…" Spiral started.

Spiral thought he was dreaming, he rub his eyes thinking if this a dream but in reality it isn't. Sonic is right here and saved their lives. Sonic had his signature smile on his face and didn't take his eyes off from Scythe. Spiral could only do is burst into tears, crying, he now begin to feel joy to have his cousin back.

"Sonic… it's really you…" Spiral continued.

"Nice to see you too Spiral. You look good."

"I… *Sniff* I could say the same thing to you too, man."

"I'll take it from here. Make sure you keep everyone safe."

"Got it and Sonic."

"Yeah."

"It's good to have you back."

"Great to be back."

Sonic slowly walk over to Scythe and he stood five feet away from the assassin.

"So you're that guy that has been going on a killing spree I heard so much about." Sonic assumed.

"You assumed correct Sonic. I see that you have return from the dead." Scythe retorted.

"Yeah. I'm back and I'm better than ever. Now where's Scar and where can I find him? I know he's working with Zeref."

"That information is classified."

"Yeah, whatever. I'm going to find your boss and make him pay. I even don't know anything about you."

"You can call me Scythe. The death walker."

"That's a badass name. But anyways, time to get this party started. I've been itching for a good fight."

"I've waited a powerful opponent such as yourself. I've heard so much about you Sonic. Show me your power."

*BGM: Bad Luck Charm – Extended Cut (RWBY Vol. 4 Soundtrack)*

Scythe draws out his dual scythes, Sonic got to his stance and seconds after, Sonic and Scythe dash ahead and clashed. Scythe swung his scythes at Sonic but the blue blur evades from Scythe and hits him with a homing attack and a kick right in the face sending Scythe up in the air. Scythe then shot an energy wave at Sonic but the true blue dodges from the energy wave with his speed and struck him with his homing attack once again. It knock down Scythe but he launches himself off the ground and lands on his feet. Sonic dives down for a diving kick but Scythe gets out of dodge to evade from Sonic then swung his scythes at him. Sonic duck down and dodge Scythe as he try to swing and slash the hedgehog with his dual scythes.

Sonic then uses his Sonic Parry and counters Scythe that he learned from the Trials of Chaos. Sonic hit Scythe with a high knee kick to the face of his mask then somersault kick Scythe up in the air. Sonic hits Scythe with another homing attack for the third time but this time, Scythe blocks Sonic off and pushes him a feet away then dash and delivers a flying kick then follows by a slash with his dual scythes. It knocks Sonic back down to the ground and Scythe dives down and slams his scythes at Sonic but ends up stabbing them to the ground when Sonic front flip over Scythe and uses Sonic Eagle to knock him on his one knee.

When Sonic lands on his feet, Scythe threw a few of his throwing knives at Sonic, he then dodges them with an aerial cartwheel and shot a blue wind wave at Scythe knocking him down using Sonic Wind. Sonic then curls into a ball and shot a shockwave of blue energy over at Scythe using his Sonic Storm. Scythe got up on his feet, evades Sonic spin attack and counters him by throwing his scythe at Sonic, it spins and deliver a few slashes on the true blue using his power to command it. Scythe then rush ahead, grabs his scythe and deliver a powerful slash with lime green energy shockwave shot from his weapons and pushes Sonic two feet away and hits the ground.

Scythe dash up ahead and uses his harbinger powers and phases through Sonic to deliver a powerful slash with his scythes but Sonic use his Chaos Sense and dodge away from Scythe then counters him with a tornado kick. Scythe was force backwards and glares at the hedgehog. He then begin combining his dual scythes into a double sided scythe. He spin his scythe around and spin himself around and slams his scythe down at Sonic but he dodge from his scythe and punches Scythe in the face through his mask. Scythe swung his double sided scythe at Sonic which Sonic dodge a few times and the two engage into a brawl with both of them attacking back to back but dodging, evading each and every strike possible. As they go at it, Scythe surprise Sonic and swung his scythe upward and sends Sonic up in the air, before he can air dash after him, Sonic suddenly counters the death walker off as he builds up some energy within him, curls himself into a ball and hurls himself over to the assassin and bashes him and continuously attacking the pale grey echidna using his Light Speed Attack. After seconds with his technique, Sonic then finish him off with his Sonic Eagle kick and struck down Scythe to the ground with a powerful axe kick.

Sonic then dives down, going after Scythe and the death walker tosses more of his throwing knives at him but Sonic dodges them all with his reflexes and double kicks Scythe but he blocks it off and pushes Sonic away with strong force. It send Sonic flying away a feet from Scythe but he back flips and lands on his feet. Scythe take the initiative to combine his dual scythes, creating a double scythe and charges at the blue hedgehog. Scythe spin around and swings his double scythe at Sonic but he evades the weapon and counters him with a spinning heel kick but Scythe ducks down and knocks away Sonic with a sweep kick.

Scythe spin his double scythe and slams it down at Sonic. Sonic rolls out of the way and did a starfish kip up and launches himself off the ground and kicks Scythe a feet away and he then hits the ground. Scythe bounces off the ground a second later and lands on his feet and skid the ground. Spinning his weapon again, he begin swinging it, shooting lime green energy waves at Sonic. Sonic jumps over and slides under the waves as they came straight at him and the speedster curls himself into a ball and try to use his spin dash at Scythe.

The death walker dodge away the spin dash with an aerial cartwheel and he then swing his double scythe but Sonic evade in the nick of them and counters Scythe with a homing attack and both of them are up in the air. Sonic's homing attack knocks Scythe's double scythe away and now they're up in the air and throwing punches. Sonic punch Scythe in the face then Scythe counters Sonic turns himself over and chokes the life out of him, Sonic knee kicks Scythe and turns him over and thus he began throwing rapid punches at Scythe and seconds after Sonic slams Scythe back down to the ground and throw more punches at the death walker. Scythe pulls Sonic and head-butted him with his mask and kicks him off. He rolls backwards and launches himself off the ground, lands on his feet and charges at his double scythe to retrieve it. Sonic sees this and goes after the assassin and stop him for collecting his weapon.

However Sonic didn't make it in time as Scythe grabs his weapon then swing himself around and kicks Sonic away sending him a feet away as Scythe lands down and readied his weapon. Scythe then start to use his necromancer powers and begin summoning the undead, he summons five caskets and the undead burst out and charge at Sonic.

"What the hell!" Sonic shouted.

The undead chare at Sonic, ready to kill him but the blur isn't going to back down not without a fight anyway. So Sonic uses Sonic Wind and sends them up in the air then he launches up in the air and homing attacks the undead through them and killing them out in the open then hits the last one and takes the undead and tosses it over at Scythe. Scythe sees this coming and he swing his weapon and cuts the undead in half, killing it out of his way. This was a distraction made for Sonic and he takes this as an advantage and charges at Scythe and bashes him with a shoulder follow by a punch and a flash kick sending Scythe up in the air then Sonic hits him with a homing attack and then Sonic grabs Scythe and spun him around a few times then throws him back down to the ground hard.

Sonic dives down for a diving kick but he soon miss when Scythe rolls out the way and try to hit Sonic with a sweep kick. Sonic saw it coming and dodges it with an aerial cartwheel and hits Scythe with a spinning heel kick again, Scythe ducks down and blasts Sonic away with lime green energy blast from his palm. It send Sonic a feet away but he skid on the ground and Scythe launches up in the air and slam down his double scythe at the true blue. Sonic uses his Sonic Parry to counter Scythe and delivers a powerful punch with blue wind engulfing around his fist and gives him a striking blow. The force sends Scythe flying a feet away and hits the ground.

Scythe hits the ground and rolls backwards but picks himself back up on his feet with an aerial twist and transforms his scythe back to his dual scythes. He stop and glares at Sonic while wielding his dual scythes and Sonic returns the glare and clench his fist.

"I have to admit, I'm impressed. You've improve from the last time you faced Scar." Scythe admitted.

"Thanks. I keep getting stronger and I keep growing, that's just how I roll." Sonic retorted.

"True but your skill and your power won't save you from me once I kill you and collected your soul. I'll add it to my collection for my undead warriors."

"Like that's going to happen."

Sonic charges at Scythe and goes for a flying kick but the death walker suddenly disappear and then reappears and stabs Sonic with his dual scythes and swung him to a nearby wrecked tent. He then creates lime green energy balls and tosses at Sonic, he dodge one of them but the other struck Sonic down and hits down to the ground.

"Much as I love to kill you but how fight ends here. I finish what I came here for. Don't worry, we'll fight again soon but in the meantime this if farewell… for now." Scythe said as he put away his dual scythes.

"Hold it!" Sonic demanded.

Sonic charges at Scythe to prevent him from leaving. Scythe then suddenly teleports away using Chaos Control. Sonic skid on the ground and cursed himself.

"Damn… he got away." Sonic cursed.

Spiral rushes to meet up with Sonic but notices that Scythe had got away.

"He got away?" Spiral asked.

"Yeah. He did but he made a big mess around here."

"And killing most of the resistance. The Legion has been growing and they keep destroying our forces and killing most of our allies. They even took over Fiore and we barely fought them off but we're on the losing end."

"Don't worry about it, we'll win. Which is why I have the information that can help turn the tide in our favor."

"Wait you do?"

"Yeah. I happen to retrieve a lot of data from a Stronghold I found right after I was brought back to life."

"Then we have a bigger chance to win this war. Come on, let's head back to Magnolia. Erza and Wendy, and Kenny are going to be real happy to see you."

"Yeah even Fairy Tail."

Spiral smiled and pulls Sonic into a hug. Sonic smiled and returns the hug.

"I missed you so much cousin, you don't know what we've been through without you." Spiral said as he begin shedding tears.

"I missed you too Spiral, it's good to be back." Sonic responded comforting his cousin.
