I do not own Fairy Tail, Naruto or the Nasuverse.

Beatdown With A Dash Of Mad Science

/Natsu's POV/

As Natsu walked through the cold, damp bowels of Orochimaru's hideout he felt a tremor shake the facility to its very foundations. As the tremor subsided a small smile wormed its way onto his face.

"Naruto appears to be taking this fight seriously."

"Of course he is Aava he knows Orochimaru isn't some run of the mill shinobi that can be defeated with a few parlour tricks. The man was able to kill Hiruzen and was able to fight both Jiraiya and Tsunade at the same time with the handicap of being unable to use either of his arms so I'd say Naruto knows full well not to mess around on this one."

"You can't tell me you aren't worried for him though?"

"Of course I'm worried but I can't keep babying him all the time. I'm training him to become the future Devil of this world and I won't be around in it forever to pull him out of trouble."

"I know that Father I was referring to your own personal feelings on the matter, you've gotten quite attached to him haven't you?"

"Of course I have but it isn't my place to fight his battles for him. Orochimaru will be the test to see if he's learned anything from myself, Kurama or Jiraiya."

Another tremor shook the facility just as Natsu rounded a corner arriving in what appeared to be a main hall of sorts with a small throne sitting in front of a massive snake statue. Shaking his head Natsu walked up to the chair and kicked it sending it crashing into the head of the statue revealing a stairwell beneath it.

"And so further into the snake pit I go," he muttered to himself as he began to descend igniting his finger in crimson flame to light the way.

A small gathering of his aura appeared before him as Aava materialized and landed on his shoulder, sniffing all around them before looking into Natsu's eyes with a grim look.

"Yes I can smell it too Aava, lots of blood and something foreign."

"Look at the walls Father …"

Lining the walls was a strange tentacle like life form that only seemed to increase in both size and quantity the further down the small passage went. Lightly brushing one of the tentacles Natsu activated his eyes and tried to analyse what they were only to frown.

"It appears to be a virus of some sort … a living virus?"

"Do you think this might have been a failed experiment of Orochimaru's?"

"I initially did but after looking closely at the makeup of the virus its centuries ahead of this worlds time scientifically. Orochimaru may be a mad genius but there is no way he created this even by accident."

"Then what did?"

"Something that doesn't belong here," Natsu said slowly as the two slowly proceeded down the dark corridor determined to uncover what Orochimaru was hiding.

/Naruto's POV/

Charging his blade with Wind chakra Naruto launched himself into the air and sliced a large snake in two before blocking several swift strikes from Orochimaru's own blade before retreating, tossing a series of shuriken as he did.

"How the hell can Orochimaru seriously use his tongue to swing that sword so effectively, I can't be the only one questioning that right?"

"Well he does seem to hold an innate desire to become a snake so it really doesn't surprise me all that much. Did you know snakes use their tongues for quite a number of different things, they can also dislocate their jaws so that they can swallow their prey whole-."

"Didn't ask for the nature documentary Kurama I'm trying to fight here!"

"If you really wanted to defeat him you'd have just unleashed everything to catch him off guard so excuse me for wanting to find a little entertainment because what's on offer I find lacking."

"Che, you know why I haven't used that power yet Kurama don't go being a smartass!"

"You want the Uchiha's location don't you?"

"Well it's not like Natsu Sensei is gonna tell me so I'll have to get the information myself!"

"You realize that he's a Kage Level Shinobi right, using everything you have wouldn't necessarily kill him."

"It won't?"

"Trust me on this one kid this bastard is still holding back a good portion of his power and its only your unusual fighting style and use of Fuinjutsu and Devil's Aura that's kept him from rolling right over you."

Blocking a powerful thrust attack and allowing himself to be blown back Naruto flipped in the air and landed on his feet unfurling a sealing scroll as Orochimaru landed a few feet away with the same grin on his face.

"Going to bring out some more interesting toys to play with?"

"How can you talk when your tongue is like six meters outside your mouth and holding a sword," Naruto asked more to himself as he sealed his sword back inside the scroll before pocketing it in one of the many pockets inside his coat.

"Decided to give up have you I must say I'm a little disappointed after all my Sasuke lasted longer."

"Give up? Sure you've come close but you've yet to actually land a solid blow on me yet just as I've yet to land a blow on you, which said I think it's time to take things up a notch."

Orochimaru's eyes narrowed as his tongue retracted back into his mouth dragging the sword with it as he watched Naruto spin on the spot.

"Devil's Aura: Kurama Four Tails Mode!"

A massive explosion rocked the area ripping up trees and dirt thirty metres in all directions. As the dust began to settle Orochimaru stood before a massive crater with the only piece of land surviving being that which Naruto currently occupied, a lone pillar at the exact centre of the crater.

"Well now this is certainly more than I expected, to be able to control Four of the Nine Tails worth of chakra …"

Where Naruto had once been now stood a Crimson Red Demonic looking being with four swirling tails behind it with a pitch black face with pure white eyes and mouth being the only identifiable features present.

"Well then it appears that I'll have to cease playing as well," Orochimaru chuckled as he began gagging before vomiting up what was basically an endless sea of snakes that quickly began filling the crater around Naruto as they swirled all around his lone pillar like a maelstrom.

"Alright Naruto remember what we practiced!"

"I know Kurama I've got this!"

"I hope you do because here he comes!"

Naruto let loose a feral roar that sent a shockwave right at Orochimaru who was blown back slightly as his lower body was consumed by the snakes beneath his feet.

"I swear this boy …"

Orochimaru began to move around the maelstrom of snakes at high speed hurling hundreds of small snakes in his directions prompting Naruto to begin firing a volley of Crimson Red blasts of Wind at them just as fast as they were thrown much to the Sannin's shock and amusement.

"How about a little of this!"

Larger snakes were thrown into the mix as snakes the size of small houses began to dive in and out of the maelstrom of smaller snakes in order to avoid Naruto's Wind volley allowing them to get in close to his position.

Taking a deep breath Naruto fired a condensed beam of pure chakra laced with Devil's Aura ripping through the larger snakes and blowing off one of Orochimaru's arms as the Sannin tried to close in.

Orochimaru fell into the snake maelstrom and vomited up another version of himself with his arm restored and used the moment to sneak around behind Naruto and attempt to stab him in the back.

His legs seemed to have fused together as he darted around in the air behind Naruto building up speed as he lunged towards him only for Naruto to duck at the last moment and fire a small volley of Wind at him.

"That's it show me a good time!"

Lunging towards Naruto from the front Naruto allowed his arms to extend pushing him high into the air before raising his now lengthy arms high into the air and enlarging his front claws and slamming them down onto the sea of snakes with enough force to blow them all away.

The Sannin wasn't done however as he summoned a snake that was easily the size of a small mountain with it immediately closing in on his position. Letting loose another ear piercing roar the snakes jaw was blown apart moments before it could clench shut however Orochimaru was hidden behind it as he opened his mouth with a grin.

From his mouth the sword of Kusanagi extended piercing through his right shoulder and continued to extend as it dragging him along the ground for several miles all the way back to the bridge where everyone else was currently fighting the other snakes Orochimaru had summoned.

Looking around quickly he could see everyone shocked at his sudden appearance however he couldn't let it deter him from what he needed to do as he gripped the sword and began to pull bringing Orochimaru directly above him.

Taking another deep breath he fired another chakra blast directly at him blowing him back and freeing the blade from his control as it returned to its original length. Ripping the blade from his shoulder Naruto tossed it at Yugao narrowly missing her face by inches and tearing a snake in half that had been closing in from behind her whilst she was distracted.

To everyone's shock Orochimaru appeared out of the ground behind Naruto with another sword in hand, this one coated in poison and was prepared to stab him. Naruto however simply morphed his body summoning a second one on his back which slashed the Sannin across the chest sending him flying through the forest as Naruto looked up at the sky.

"I think he can take one Naruto."

"Are you sure?"

"He survived an attack from Natsu so I think he'll be fine."

"He'd better be conscious enough once this is done or I swear Kurama …"

Everyone watched as Naruto stood up on two legs and began roaring at the sky as strange Crimson Red orbs began to rapidly come together in the air high above his head until they formed a massive sphere shaped attack.

"What the hell is that," Naruto heard Sakura screech over the loud noise the attack was currently putting out.

"That's the attack that almost destroyed the village when the Nine Tails attacked all those years ago … that's the Tailed Beast Bomb," Yugao said almost breathlessly.

"Man that kid's packing some real power, more than I thought," Mordred said with a grin as Nobu's eyes were alight with glee at such a destructive attack.

"Oh if only I had power like that my reign would've been unrivalled!"

Roaring again the sphere began to rapidly shrink and slowly lower towards Naruto until it was the size of a meatball. Everyone was shocked as Naruto opened his mouth and ate it before dropping back on all fours.

Orochimaru was sweating; his grin no longer plastered on his face as he crossed his hands in front of his face and bit both his thumbs drawing blood before slamming both palms down on the ground.

Taking a deep breath Naruto fired a clear attack with a white centre right at Orochimaru's location that simply disintegrated anything it came across that wasn't its intended target at high speed.

"So that's how you want to play it, fine then I'll acknowledge your skill Naruto Uzumaki! Triple Rashomon!"

Three massive Demonic Gates rose from the earth as a protective barrier, each a kilometre apart as Naruto's attack rapidly closed in. Naruto's attack surged upward and made impact on the nose of the first gate initially setting off a bright light before suddenly shaking the earth as if an earthquake had begun as the attack quadrupled in size cracking the first gate easily.

"And here … we … go!"

Instead of simply blowing through the gates the attack continued to quadruple in size until it simply engulfed all three gates entirely easily blowing them away much to the shock of Orochimaru who could only laugh at the power on display before him as it engulfed him entirely.

The attack ripped through the forest leaving nothing but a massive crater that stretched as far as they eye could see as Naruto spun on the spot and reverted back to his regular form, a grin plastered on his face.

The summoned snakes around the rest of the group disappeared in puffs of white smoke however none of them paid attention to that, only to the blonde who was currently admiring his handiwork.

"You sure showed him."

"Do you really think he survived that?"

"Most likely, like I said before he survived a run in with Natsu and not many do."

"Naruto was that you using the Nine Tails power," Sakura asked as she rushed towards him with Yugao close behind. Mordred and Nobu already knew it was Kurama's power and felt no need to make a comment thus choosing to examine the edge of the large crater near them instead.

"Yeah that was Four Tails worth right there, can't go any higher than that without messing up my body so I'm glad it was enough."

"Are you sure that it was enough Naruto this is Orochimaru of the Sannin after all," Yugao asked sceptically as Naruto adopted a thinking pose.

"Well I wouldn't be surprised if he managed to get away somehow like he did during the Chunin Exams but either way he's gotta be heavily wounded after that."

"I don't sense anyone nearby so it's safe to say he's escaped," Nobu said as her eyes scanned the massive crater, scrutinizing every detail for any potential hiding place.

"Well at least there's always next time right?"

"You seem oddly calm about losing Orochimaru Naruto," Sakura said slightly concerned as Naruto grinned.

"I know he was our only lead to find Sasuke but look at it this way Sakura, I beat him! I actually managed to beat the guy that killed old man Third which means I'm getting stronger! Just a little more and I'll be able to bring Sasuke back no problem, believe it Sakura!"

A steel coated fist smashed down on Naruto's head prompting him to roll around on the ground comically as Mordred towered over him with an annoyed expression.

"I told you I didn't wanna hear that 'believe it' crap out of that mouth again didn't I? Two years of that would drive anyone insane I don't need to hear it anymore!"

"OW, alright I'm sorry I won't do it again just keep that fist away from me!"

"Keep that mouth shut and I will," Mordred sighed as she turned to Nobu. "Natsu still isn't back yet so should we go looking for him?"

"His orders were to stick with the main group and I highly doubt Natsu is in any kind of mortal peril at the moment so I think we should follow our orders."

"Never pegged you a stickler for rules."

"Actually I don't have to follow them thanks to my Independent Action skill but I simply choose to because unlike ninety nine percent of Masters ours isn't a weakling who needs to be protected at all times."

"Obviously," Mordred snorted in response as the two decided to return to the main group with their minds both on their Master.

/Natsu's POV/

"What the hell was being kept down here?"

"I don't know Father but I smell the scent of death."

"The tendrils seem to be located around this table and yet there isn't anything-."

Natsu jumped back as the tendrils began to shake violently before merging together into a strange blob which also began to convulse.

"I don't like this …"

Natsu watched as the blob began to surge upward and form into a humanoid looking being. Bone, muscle and sinew began to rapidly form before being covered by skin as a human male stood before him with a pair of faded blue jeans and a jacket with a strange symbol appearing to cover his modesty.

The man's eyes shot open as he frantically looked around the room before his eyes landed on Natsu's stunned form and then … he screamed.

The scream wasn't out of fear or anger instead it was something of a guttural or primal nature as the man charged forward and moved to punch Natsu.

"He's either in shock or has lost his sanity entirely."

Natsu went to block the attack but suddenly found himself blown through the cell door and down a considerable distance in the hallway as he shot a tendril out of his bad leg to root him to the spot.

"What the hell!"

The man screamed again as his fists became coated in the same tendril like substance forming two blades where his arms once were. Natsu however was frozen in shock due to the appearance of the blades themselves.

"They look eerily similar to mine!"

The man closed the distance between them as he charged forward with a red blur left in his wake. Natsu immediately found himself dodging the flurry of attacks as he tried to piece together the situation.

"Has Orochimaru somehow got a hold of my DNA, no that isn't possible I'm not that careless anymore …"

As Natsu dodged a thrust attack the man's arm got lodged into the wall as an explosion rocked the underground lab. Taking a cautionary step forward Natsu froze as loud banging noises began to sound all around him followed by the sound of crunching and muffled screams.

"That sick fucking bastard, I'll gut Orochimaru for this!"

"How many innocents have to suffer at the hands of twisted science," Aava agreed sadly as a decayed arm burst through the wall near where the man currently stood.

"I think it's safe to say this place is a burial ground for his failed tests. Behind every wall are the remains of countless failed test subjects who are now being forced to endure a new kind of horror thanks to whatever that power is."

Several more loud bangs later and the walls began to give way as hundreds of mutilated and decayed bodies of varying age shuffled out immediately trying to attack him as the man bolted back to the lab he'd first appeared in.

"I'm truly sorry for all the suffering you've gone through," Natsu said softly as he raised his right hand as a golden aura surrounded his form. "May you finally find some sort of peace in whatever you believed the next life was, Crash Barrier."

Natsu simply stood still as he created a barrier around him that began to slowly expand completely destroying everything it came across. Natsu planned to let his Crash Barrier continue to expand for several hundred metres in all directions to ensure that any still dormant bodies were destroyed so that they could finally be at peace.

"Father why is it that everyone innately evil resort to messing with the dead?"

"There are many reasons why Aava however it is clear that in this case Orochimaru and that bastard Danzo had their eyes set on immortality."

"Because of the strange man in the lab?"

"One look at these bodies reminds me of that time I discovered the base of Keyes, a Demon from the Tartaros Guild who had been experimenting on humans to crack the code to immortality. His ambition however was to use it to kill someone who was immortal as it was the primary goal of all Demons of the Books of Zeref to seek out their creator's death."

"But don't they understand the curse that immortality brings?"

"Aava people like Orochimaru and Danzo don't care about others which is what makes it easier for them to seek it out. What they don't realize is that immortality only finds its way to those who truly hold no desire for it."

"Like the Devils and your brother?"

"Exactly like them. People like us usually obtain immortality as a by product of something much greater like how my brother got it because he wanted to bring me back or how I got it because I was revived to be used as a means of ultimate revenge."

"We should destroy that man before he spreads whatever those tendrils are."

"Yeah I think that's for the best," Natsu sighed as he brought his barrier back to cover his body since the earth above him was collapsing from the lack of supports as he walked back towards the lab.

Entering the now ruined lab Natsu scanned the room and quickly noticed a large concentration of the foul tendrils caught on a vent and sighed.

"Looks like he escaped through the ventilation which means we'll have to hunt him down. Aava can I get you to go find Nobu and Mordred and bring them to me please?"

"Of course Father just as soon as we leave this place."

Nodding Natsu allowed his Crash Barrier to expand once again destroying the lab entirely leaving no trace of its existence before opening a portal and appearing atop Orochimaru's throne just as the man himself walked in looking half dead.

"Well now isn't this convenient," Natsu said with a frown as Orochimaru's eyes widened in shock before darting to the previously hidden passageway.

"What have you done you fool!"

"I've destroyed your hidden lab however I have a few questions for you," Natsu growled as he summoned Aava to his side. "Go and bring Saber and Archer to me and have them wait out the front of this base."

Aava nodded as Natsu blasted a hole in the roof for her to fly out as Natsu turned his attention back to the wounded Sannin.

"Nice to see Naruto didn't hold back against you though I will give you credit where its due not even Jiraiya stood a chance against Naruto when he went all out so that fact you can even stand here now is a testament to your skill."

"I thought you trained the Uzumaki brat, Sasuke said as much when I asked him to spill everything he knew about you."

"And I see you've trained Sasuke, surprised you haven't tried stealing his body yet though," Natsu shot back as Orochimaru's eyes narrowed.

"You've seen Sasuke?"

"I've known where he was this entire time," Natsu replied coolly as the Sannin failed to hide his shock. "And before you ask no I didn't plant anything on him rather I simply KNOW where to find things when I want to."

"If that is true then why haven't you come for either myself or Danzo this entire time?"

"As much as I would enjoy beating the two of you to death Fate has decreed you to die at the hands of your own sins. Old relics like you are merely stepping stones for the next generation to learn and grow; this world has little need for the deluded minds of old men with dreams of immortality and conquest."

"You know nothing about me Dragneel! I shall become the most powerful shinobi in the world once the power of the Sharingan is on my side! With it immortality will be but a stone's throw away!"

"Do you truly believe the words that you preach Orochimaru? Itachi bested you when he was but a boy, Sasuke by the looks of it is almost as if not stronger than you and you stand before me bloodied and broken. You realize that had it been anyone else your life would have already been forfeit don't you?"

"I will not fall to any brat again," Orochimaru hissed only being angered further as Natsu smiled.

"You almost lost to an elderly man who was a good thirty years past his prime not two years ago, a man whom Death had already begun courting for her sweet eternal embrace. If there is any lesson that someone who is supposed to be as smart as you should have learned by now it is that the age of mortal Gods in this world has long since passed you by."

"YOU LIE!"

"Let's review history then shall we? Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha both wielded power that could have brought an end to this world had they not opposed each other with their brothers wielding slightly less but still significant power. Hiruzen Sarutobi was of a generation after and he was but a dying ember of the last generation, spat out to guide the people through a period of uncertainty."

Orochimaru was seething as Natsu slapped him in the face with history. Of course he knew it was all fact, denying it would be futile. Hearing it aloud from someone he could not kill was simply infuriating.

"I've been watching the people of this world Orochimaru and although there are exceptions to the rule such as the Jinchuuriki or those possessing unique Bloodlines tied to those who were once legend true power is far beyond your reach."

"You … know nothing!"

"Perhaps but then what does that mean for you I wonder? If I know nothing then that means you must know less than nothing?"

"You fool," Orochimaru hissed. "I am the greatest scientist this world has ever known, nothing shall ever be beyond my grasp and the power I desire shall always become mine in the end!"

"If I were you I would be very careful where such desires lead you snake," Natsu warned as he began to walk forward towards the Snake Sannin and grabbed him by the front of his torn robes. "Heed my warning your time draws near snake!"

Tossing him into the wall Orochimaru coughed up blood as Natsu began making his way toward the exit pausing momentarily to look at a shocked Sasuke.

"I trust you know how to discern the greater of two paths Sasuke," Natsu said as he ran a finger over the modified Curse Seal. "Rise above this pitiful subservience to a relic and learn the truths of this world and your family or remain in blissful ignorance until you become nothing more than a vessel for a fossil."

Grabbing Sasuke by the neck and lifting him into the air Natsu slammed him into the wall as the Uchiha coughed up blood onto his face, unconsciously activating his Sharingan.

"Let me tell you now Sasuke you'd better think long and hard about your choice because we'll be meeting again real soon if it's the wrong one," Natsu growled as his eyes began to glow Crimson Red and Galaxy Blue as he let his Demonic tendrils wrap around him terrifying the Uchiha.

Suddenly Natsu's demeanour shifted as a smile broke out onto his face as he dropped Sasuke and turned to leave. Sasuke was about to get up when Natsu turned around to face the Uchiha once again forcing him to freeze in place.

"Yes I think Itachi will approve, you'll be there quite soon I think."

Walking away from the now shocked and confused Sasuke Natsu made his way toward the exit pondering his decision to aid Sasuke. Would Itachi approve of his meddling or would it hinder the elder Uchiha's overall plan regarding his precious little brother?

At the end of the day as long as things flowed the way Fate decreed them it was of little consequence to Natsu, naturally he cared about the overall Fate of the brothers however he knew that Sasuke was a knife's edge away from falling into the abyss and should he truly fall and threaten those he'd grown to care for he would be destroyed like so many before him.

Natsu was brought out of his brooding as he arrived at the entrance to the hideout where Nobu and Mordred stood waiting patiently with Aava resting peacefully on a tree branch nearby.

"So this is where you ran off to eh," Mordred asked as she peered over Natsu's shoulder. "So the kid was here then?"

"Yeah and I've done what I wanted though we've got a problem and it has to be handled by us," Natsu sighed as his Servants gave him their full attention.

"Are we up against a Servant?"

"I don't know if it is a Servant or not to be honest," Natsu replied as he pondered what he encountered earlier. "Whatever it was it was powerful and raised the dead and regenerated from virtually nothing."

"Since you want to keep the others away I'm guessing you believe whatever it is this guy does can infect living humans," Nobu asked as Aava flew down and landed on her hat.

"When Natsu last saw it the being infected the bodies of the dead beneath Orochimaru's lair and raised them however they were almost like a hive mind all moving to attack in unison rather than individually. It isn't much of a stretch to say that whatever this being uses is contagious and keeping the mortal humans away from it would be for the best."

"Sounds like some kind of parasitic hive mind being, sucks we don't know if it's magical in nature or not," Nobu sighed. "Well either way we'll have to stop whatever it is before it can prove that theory correct."

"The being escaped through the ventilation shafts and is currently on its way to a village near here so we should move to stop it before it can kill any innocents," Natsu said as he opened a portal. "It's moving fast so we need to hurry."

The group nodded as Aava returned into Natsu as they entered the portal hoping that they could prevent any potential disaster from occurring.

/Mazukai Village/

"OI ANOTHER ROUND OVER HERE," came the slurred shout of a young Rock Nin as he slammed his sake cup down on his table.

"Sorry pal but I can't serve you any more, company policy."

"POLICY! FUCK THE POLICY I'M A G-GOD DAMN PAYING CUSTOMER DAMMIT!"

"Please excuse my subordinate he's a lightweight," an older looking Rock Nin sighed as he dragged the drunk nin out of his seat. "Alright that's enough out of you for one night I think."

"B-but Sensei I've had like one!"

"One too many," the older nin sighed as he left some Ryo on the counter and the two stepped out of the bar into the cool night air. "Now let's look at getting you back to the hotel eh?"

"S-Sensei I don feel s'good!"

The man sighed as he led his student to the nearby alley where he began to vomit much to the elder nin's disappointment.

The sound of rustling caught the man's attention as he saw someone sifting through the garbage making a rather large mess. Believing it to be another customer who'd had one too many he decided to see if the man was alright.

"Hey pal are you alright?"

The sifting stopped and the figure froze making the nin suspicious. He was about to draw a kunai until his drunk student stumbled past him toward the man.

"Hey pal we're like brothers you n me, comrades of the cup!"

"Get back here," the elder nin hissed as he watched the man slowly stand up to his full height with his head in an odd position. "Something doesn't seem quite right about this man."

"Ah he's just drunk Sensei, kinda like me," the younger nin said before stumbling and falling before the man. "WHOOPS HAHAHA!"

As the drunk nin looked up he quickly scarpered back into the set of bins opposite with a look of utter terror on his face even in his drunken stupor.

"WHAT THE FUCK-!"

Before the older nin had a chance to react the man's arm shot a tendril out towards his student piercing his head and killing him instantly. The elder nin immediately began flashing through hand seals and fired a volley of thick rocks towards the man who simply grabbed them in a strange net made of the same tendrils and slung them back at him.

"What the hell is this guy!"

The elder nin was about to attack again when he saw his supposedly dead student beginning to move once again. Shocked he was about to call out only for his head to snap towards him making the elder nin want to vomit.

The hole where the tendril pierced his forehead had hundreds of tiny tendrils writhing from it, his eyes, nose and ears also had tendrils emerging from them as he slowly rose to his feet with his skin taking on a bluish red colour.

"What jutsu is this …"

Faster than the nin could react the man he should have been paying attention to rushed towards him and slit his stomach open as his insides spilt out across the ground before him. Screaming in pain the man had no defence as his former student rushed him and bit into his face eating part of his cheek before taking a bite out of his neck as he saw no more.

The man in the alley looked at the student who was eating his former teacher and instead of screaming began to grin as his skin rippled with tendrils for a moment.

"I wonder if Heller got brought back too? Such a weak and unprepared world but it'll do nicely to spread the virus. That scientist thought he could contain me forever he will be the first to feel the full power of Blacklight as I bring it knocking on his door!"

The man put his hands in his pocket and strolled out onto the street ignoring the horrified screams as the virus began to spread across the village from those he'd already infected.

Carrier Of The Blacklight Virus

Crazed Shape shifter

Alex Mercer (Berserker)

So as that one guest and Shadow465 suggested quite some time ago I've finally found a place to insert a Servant from Prototype into the story. Why is Alex Mercer willingly spreading the Blacklight Virus and how will Natsu and his Servants combat them? Find out next time and I'll see you then!
