F.Y.I. Cobra is the same age as Natsu, Gajeel, Sting, Rogue, etc. Ultear is at the age she was after tenrou, so is Meredy.
Next chapter! CHAPTER 50 LET'S HERE IT! *Sprays silly string around* This is the longest thing I've ever written, novel, fan fiction or otherwise! And this little tale isn't over just yet! Sequel will be coming out within a week or so of this story ending! Yay! And to a Guest who reviewed, don't you worry, Viper may seem a little OP now, but there's some massive battles to come, I only did that because A. I don't really like Orga B. I wanted to do something funny to show her personality with her fight against Eve. and C. I'm planning a gigantic battle for Viper, it'll be super awesome! I promise you! Ok, now, something for everyone to know, see, I didn't know if Cobra's spell that covers him with scales counted as Dragon Force or not, so I'm just gonna take some creative license here and say that it's sorta like Dragon Force but not total force. So there's no chance of him going crazy, or, you know, crazier than he usually is, which is crazy enough for all of us.(Cobra: You got something to say? Me: Of course not... Cobra: I can here you thinking! Me: *Runs away screaming for Master Dracoya* Cobra: Thats what I thought.) Please enjoy chapter fifty!
Orchid felt her knees go to jelly as the sheer enormity of Jura's magical energy washed over her like a tsunami.
"U-Um..." She whimpered as Jura towered over them, her knees beginning to buckle against each other.
Cobra cursed under his breath.
"Thats it..."
He took two steps forward and growled.
"Dragon force." He hissed, at once, scales grew up his arms as his sleeve tore off at the shoulders, his hands became clawed, and his gritted his teeth in preparation to attack.
"What's this!?" Chapati exclaimed, he'd just returned from switching wigs, and now wore a bright bubble gum pink wig with a single spike making him look like a unicorn.
"Uh-oh, kabo! It looks like Cobra just went into dragon force, kabo!"
"COOL! Look at those scales! Look at those claws! Look how ripped he got out of no where! COOL! COOL! COOOOOOL!" Jason howled, his arms pumping so fast you could see little but two blurs attached to his shoulders.
"But, remember, Natsu Dragneel and Rogue Cheney both were in dragon force when they exploded into what their master later dubbed 'total force' let's keep our fingers crossed that Cobra here will be able to maintain control." Yajima said.
Cobra launched himself at Jura, swiping at him with his claws in an attempt to get some sort of wound inflicted upon the wizard saint that would slow him down or at least cause him to tire more quickly.
Jura leaned backwards, dodging, dodging, a concentrated look on his face, he still had his arms in his sleeves.
"Poison Dragon slash!" Cobra ripped his arms across the wizard saints chest, raking them with his talons and sending poison flaring up into the air around them, surrounding them with a beautiful yet deadly glittering purple rain.
Jura grunted at the hit as he was sent flying away from the dragonslayer.
Cobra didn't give him time, yet again he fell back on his most basic spell.
"Poison Dragon Roar!" He barked, sending the cannon of purple and black liquid spiraling into the wizard saint.
Jura skidded backwards, her wooden shoes clacking against the ground. His sleeves billowing in the wind that tore at him in the wake of the attack.
Finally, he got into casting position.
"Iron rock pillar!" He barked.
The pillar arced up from the ground as if it were some great snake. It slammed into the snake like wizard so hard the wind was knocked out of him.
He was sent hurtling at incredible speed into a solid wall, crumpling to the ground when the pillar crumbled to gravel.
"Cobra!?" Orchid shrieked, her fists balled tightly underneath his chin. Cobra gave no response, she glanced back at one of the lacrima scoreboards that had drifted above the city, she squinted against the bright sun of the gloriously well weathered day to see that Draconem Heart was only two points ahead.
We need to take down a leader to maintain our lead.
Orchid thought, she than turned and saw Cobra, down, injured, struggling for consciousness. The only reason he hadn't been officially eliminated yet was because his claws and scales were still present, showing that he had some fight left in him after all.
Orchid was furious. Jura hurt her friend. One of the few that didn't judge her for being scared, that protected her even when he knew she could protect herself, the only one she'd ever met that had spoken to her about what she'd gone through as a child.
Orchid was livid.
She turned on Jura with a fire in her eye no one had ever seen there before.
Her magic energy exploded as she launched herself at Jura with a wild scream no one thought Orchid had it in her to create.
"Garden Dragon's iron fist!" She barked, smashing her hardened fist into Jura's jaw, not even realizing what Master Dracoya was horrified about.
"Orchid...just like that she went into Dragon Force. Her instinct of protecting Cobra, because he'd always protected her, sent her into it. It's the first time I've ever seen her enter Dragon Force." The Master whispered as she watched the screen.
"Garden Dragon fang!" The slayer performed a back handspring, landing balanced on her feet she spun back onto her arms yet again, kicking Jura in the shoulder with a magically powered fang attack.
She leapt up and cracked her arms like whips.
"Garden Dragon wing attack!" She howled, vines and green and pink energy crashed into Jura in the form of two raging whip like currents of power.
Jura stumbled from this sudden melee of attacks.
His wooden shoes creaked and scratched at the ground as he leaned forward.
"Iron rock wall!" He sent several thick slabs of rock jutting up at Orchid from all angles.
She kicked off of one of them, she looked so angry, so enraged, that Jura actually found himself the smallest bit frightened by just what she might use her powerful slayer magic to do.
"Garden Dragon..." She made to cast another spell but Jura was quicker.
"Rumbling mount fuji!" He cast this spell again, Orchid had no time to move and no one to tackle her out of the way.
"EEEEEEEAAAAAAGHHH!" She was enveloped by the beam of white energy and was sent spiraling high into the air.
She collapsed to the ground in a heap, her bow had been incinerated, her dress was torn badly. The stomach area completely ripped away, one strap had been broken and now hung limp and uselessly from her shoulder, causing one side of the dress to slide down a few inches. The hem of her dress was torn at one side, exposing her hip, and her hair was a mess. Her bangs, with no bow to hold them, fell down and cast her eyes into shadow.
Jura thought he'd won, both of them down, but neither of them were out, for Cobra was still in a massive struggle with gravity itself, leaning on a shattered piece of brickwork with trembling legs. Orchid, she staggered to her feet, her body swinging perilously to one side, than the other. She took two steps forward and said simply.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Neekis, but I can't afford to lose. Our guild is new, yours already has a reputation, something to uphold. We haven't even gotten that far, we have no reputation yet. I need to do my part in order to change that. I've gotta show them who's got the heart."
Orchid raised one arm to the sky.
"Janguru, lend me your power, the strength of nature, the energy of the earth." She said as she snapped her head up, Jura saw tears, pure emotion seeping through.
Orchid couldn't. She couldn't. If she did she'll have failed, failed everyone, her friends that had been there for her, all of the people that had been there and raised her up from a terrified girl with a tortured past to a powerful wizard of a magical lost guild. She couldn't afford to let that happen.
Orchid couldn't lose.
"Garden Dragonslayer secret art!" She exclaimed, she threw both arms out towards Jura, exploding with energy no one thought she could have left after been hit with the wizard saints eruptive spell.
"BURSTING BLOOMS!"
Flowers.
Blossoms of all shapes, colors, and sizing, began to grow at an alarming rate. Out of magic circles from the air, out of the ground, worming their way through the cracking in the concrete.
The flowers were all closed though, not ones petals were open to the sunshine. Jura made to jump out of the way, but the flowers were now growing above him, all around him, trapping him in a living prison. No rock. No stone. Nothing he could use as a weapon as the vines snaked over the ground, covering everything.
That was when every single bud on the vines began to swell, green and golden power leaking out and sprinkling Jura's shoulders. The petals were struggling to hold in whatever dangerous powers were contained inside.
Orchid felt an amazing amount of pride as she watched each and every flower, from the giant sunflowers to the tiniest tulips, explode.
In an amazing display that set the ground shaking, greens and pinks and golds flew up into the sky and burst, each one with a green magic circle.
Hundreds filled the air, as did Jura's scream.
He had effectively been blown up, the entire amount of foliage surrounding him had been swelling with Orchid's magical explosive pollen.
Jura fell backward, collapsing with his arms spread out wide.
Orchid herself had to fall back and lean on the a nearby lamppost.
She'd done it, timid little Orchid had just defeated a great, powerful wizard saint.
Alright Orchid, that a girl! So, that was a pretty good secret art, huh? A bit more exciting and dramatic than Rina's hailstorm. Don't tell her that though.
