AN: YO MY READERS! HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHO DON'T CELEBRATE IT IN FEBRUARY! I'M EXCITED TO BE ABLE TO WRITE THIS AFTER HAVING A BLOCK THE ENTIRE BREAK, EVEN THOUGH I SAID I WAS GETTING TONS INSPIRATION! I DON'T KNOW WHY I'M TYPING LIKE THIS!

Eamonn: It's because you're a little saddened about my story right? As well as your excitement?

Me: Oh, right. I checked the poll on my profile recently and am kind of torn. There are two questions that have the same number of votes and I don't know how to deal with this so I'm torn to just combine the two of them since it kind of could work or keep it up.

Catherine: Just update already.

Me: And how did you get in here? I gave you to LunarBlaze so you shouldn't be allowed to cross the writer's boundary.

Catherine: I decided to give you a visit since nothing was going on with her.

Me: Still you shouldn't blame her. I mean everyone has their ups and downs.

Izaya: Even me. And I've been made out basically as a power house almost.

Me: Until you get up against foes that have power rivaling that of the Greek gods. Anyway getting back to important matters, Catherine you shouldn't abandon people just because they have had a hard time figuring out stuff to do stuff you're in, I mean the play that my high school had before break was supposed to be held at the start of December and they had problem writing the script so they had to reschedule for the day before we got out for break and no one complained. Now leave or else I may do something I don't like.

Catherine: Fine, but I won't be happy. (leaves)

Me: None of that actually happened but it got her to leave so I'm happy. Anyway too add to this rather long AN, I apologize in advance. There was a fact that I forgot about that kind of makes the fight completely unfair and I wanted to be nice and not have the person who has the unfair advantage completely destroy the other. If you remember from a few chapters ago I won't have to say it, but for those who don't it comes up again anyway. So to end this long AN, I leave you with these words of wisdom: Yoda from Star Wars kicks ass.

Chapter 44

*Third POV*

Lucy brought out her one of her golden keys as Terminian in front of her just stared, waiting for you opponent to get ready. "Open, Gate of the Crab Palace: Cancer!" She turned the key in mid air and it didn't respond, surprising the Celestial Spirit mage. "OK, let's try this then. Open, Gate of the Bovine Palace: Taurus!" She repeated the action with a different key but nothing came out. T. Aoi saw this and sighed at the girl.

"You use magic that crosses dimensions. Just great," she said as she looked at her surroundings. The rocks were glowing a slightly pale green color. "Uverright blocks dimensions from being crossed, and right now you're surrounded by the stuff." The blade slowly changed back into an ocarina. "And here I was hoping for a challenge." She brought the ocarina to her lips and began to play a tune different from the one she was playing earlier. It was faster and catchier. As the song went on, a tornado began to form around T. Aoi, slowly expanding outwards. When it connected with Lucy, it went her flying backwards farther than T. Aoi could see.

"Hope I didn't kill he; that would be a real bother. Izaya T won't be following my movements for the rest of the day now that has all the pieces in place so I think I'll pay a little visit to my friend," she said as she disappeared in a spinning ball of feathers.

*Izaya T POV*

I reentered the room and saw that the two 10 year olds had completely wrecked the place only keeping intact the lacryma. They were pulling each other's cheeks and hair simultaneously but soon stopped when they noticed I walked in. I looked over at the lacryma and saw T. Aoi disappear in a sphere of feathers. "Guess you can't let sleeping dogs lie can you? Heh, it's kind of funny how she keeps trying to change everything when it's all constant." I turn and the two young girls are at it again, this time Lacy sitting on Sophia and pulling on her pig tails. I swear I feel like I'm running a day care half the time.

"Stop it Lacy! You are going to get it if you don't get off me now!" Sophia was shouting so I thought it best not to get any closer than I was. When Lacy didn't stop, Sophia flipped them both over and Sophia stood up soon after leaving Lacy on the ground groaning in pain. "I warned you," she told her before she helped the other girl up.

Lacy looked over at me and slightly whined. "Izaya I'm bored, even of bothering Sophia. I thought you said they'd be here by now," she said whining badly. I looked over at the lacryma again to see the progress of the last pawn. She was on her way over here on one of those machines that sucked magic from you and went faster the more you pumped into it.

"Looks like the message took longer to get there than I thought," I said to myself as I turned to the duo to answer them. "It looks like you'll be here at least another hour, sorry." She was about to step forward and hit me when Sophia got her into a headlock.

"Don't turn your back to your opponent, it's bad for you," Sophia said as she started to give Lacy a noogie, laughing as she did. I went to other side of the room and put a book on a book shelf and everything went back to the way it was before. I just hope that they don't mess it up too badly.

*Third POV, Erza's location*

The area was similar to a desert, only the sand was glowing slightly. Erza laid on her front, the wind blowing across the area. She was still in her Black Wing armor, her sword stuck in the sand about 2 yards away. The wind settled down as a dark figure stood over her. It was Whisper, blue fire surrounding his left hand. It settled when Erza didn't move. "Seems that I should have gone a little easier. Hope that this doesn't affect the time flow too much," he said as he kicked her over so she was instead lying on her back. He saw that she was still breathing so he knew he hadn't killed her.

Before he could react Erza swept his feet and tripped him up before running and grabbing her sword. "Don't take me so likely," she said before she charged and slashed at him with her sword. He simply grabbed the blade with his left hand and didn't look impressed. Erza struggled to get it out of his hand but he had a tight grip on it.

"How many times must I tell you, swords can't cut what can't be harmed." He twisted his hand slightly, causing the blade to break. "No matter how you go at it I'll just counter everything. If I have to break every bone in your body then so be it." The same flames surrounded his left hand. "Whispering Arrow." The attack exploded when it hit Erza, sending her flying back a great distance. He sent a few more at her, each one hitting dead on. When he stopped attacking, the wings were gone and the armor was severely damaged. "Seems you won't give up from weak attacks like this. Very well then." He disappeared and reappeared right in front of her, delivering a punch to her stomach, an uppercut to the jaw and finishing it with a Whispering Arrow straight in the middle of her sternum.

The smoke cleared and Erza was still standing, albeit barely. Blood had started to flow from where he hit her with the last attack and she was coughing up blood as well. She fell to the ground on her knees, no longer having the strength to stand. She used her broken sword to get back up, but fell back down soon after. "Why do you persist where there is no hope little Fairy?" Whisper asked as Erza stood up again.

"Why? Because I'm not going to let any of you harm any of my friends." She got back on her feet and stayed stable, a glow emanating around her body. "You have taken a friend and we came here to get her back." The glow started to take the form of the heaven's wheel armor, but somehow was slightly different. "And also as long as my friends are here with me, I know that I can't lose." The light died down and in its place Erza had on the Heaven's Wheel armor. "Fly my swords!" The swords flew toward a stunned Whisper.

He knocked a few away but the rest either grazed him causing blue blood to come out of the wounds or was impaled somewhere. It was his turn to start coughing up blood. "How is it you have gained so much strength in so little time? Not only that but how could you change armor when there's Uverright here? It shouldn't be possible!" He yelled as he brought back his left hand and sent an arrow at Erza, who just slashed it apart with one of her swords. Whisper saw this and was beginning to worry about if he could survive this or not. "Seems no choice then." He whispered to himself before jumping high into the air.

"You can't escape me up there." She called forth more swords and prepared to launch them all at him before she saw what he was doing. A black ball formed in his right hand growing steadily. Before long it was as large as the sun.

"Witness the limitless power of the sun. This is a secret technique that was sealed away for its power. Though it's the only one of the magic I know, it's more than enough to end you." He prepped the attack to launch at Erza. "Light Dragon's: Sun of Grief." Erza watched as the attack grew closer to her. How could a dragon of light create something of so much darkness? It made no sense, but she'd worry about that later. She switched to her Adamantine Armor and created a giant magic shield. The attack made contact but stopped when it hit. "And that's without my power to help it along." He grabbed the attack and pulled it back into the air, watching as the shield began to crumble apart, fading out as it did.

Erza prepped for the next attack only to have it come back with 20 times its original power. He wasn't kidding when he inferred it would be stronger. The attack pushed down hard on the shield, slowly breaking it. Before it could go any further, Whisper felt a pain go through his body. No not now when I'm about to finish her, Whisper thought as red smoke started to come out of his eyes and mouth. The attack stopped and the smoke stopped as well. Whisper fell to the ground, unconscious soon after.

Without a single ounce of energy left in her, Erza fell forward, unconscious as well, somehow reverting back to the broken Black Wing armor, her sword placed in the ground in front of her.

*Izaya T POV*

I smashed the lacryma at the result of the battle. Whisper was supposed to kill her. How could he fail that simple task; she was one of the only people who could ruin the entire plan and she was still alive. My 'parents' just had to go and do something that could end everything. It looks like I'll have to let someone else do it then. In my current state she could fatally harm me, so I wasn't going to do it. Lacy and Sophia were needed here so they can't do it. And I don't have any other members to use.

I look back at the broken object and darkness wraps around it, disappearing as a whole. Looks like I'll have to keep her alive, for now.

AN: I'm sure I'm going to get a shriek here some time for having Lucy utterly owned so I'm going to try to make some of this as short as possible. I forgot to include this before the chapter started but another reason I wasn't updating was because of 3 reasons. The first is that I got Kirby Mass Attack and played it most of the break. I like the game but find it quite difficult since it has one of those touch screen controls which I'm not used to so it took me about a week to beat it. The second was that I got Kirby Return to Dreamland (I like Kirby, he's so cute and adorable) but that only took me a few hours (10 I think?) But it was only easy cause I was simultaneously watching walkthroughs of it. And the final reason is also because a video game (I'm addicted, sue me) called Skylanders. The controls are a little confusing at first as well as the way to change characters, but I think they incorporated the new way quite effectively so the player wouldn't have to go to a save point to change characters like they did in Kingdom Hearts. I have yet to beat it though, stopped at the second level because I'm trying to get 100% in it and you'd need Skylanders of all 8 types to get 100% so I'm trying to get all 8 types before going on.

Lucy (Sent through wall with pictures of dragons and swords falling all over the place): How did I get here?

Me: I used my author powers to save you from dying. I thought I should be a little nice to lessen my cruelty at your current weakness.

Izaya (Walks through opening): You really need to be a little nicer to her. I thought you said you respected her a bit?

Me: That's for later chapters. Until the part where she won her battle with the doll person on the island where Grey met his old rival Leon, I thought of her only as a Mary Sue. Since we are not there yet, I'm using that mind set until we get there. And she doesn't have her whip yet so she couldn't have fought back and have a hope of winning.

Izaya: She gets a whip?

Roxas: Of course d-

Me: Roxas first you try to reveal to Aoi who you are and now Izaya; am I going to have to make this thing slightly AU from the way it's supposed to go and have ou be a different person?

Roxas: No… … … But still-

Me: You're not allowed to talk yet. I need to finish a few more things. First I found out how to see how many hits a story has (don't mock me, I only pay attention to stuff that I know how to work at first) and saw that this story is really popular at 4751 hits total! I'm really happy I learned how to do it. I may even put my Bleach story back up since I know how to do that now. And also I know that all my reviewers have lots of stories being written at the same time and I'm only doing 3 at the same time, but I am going to put up a schedule of when I'll update stuff. I am not as skilled as you guys are and am envious of your skills, but it's getting hard to update everything the way I currently am. So if I'm sounding lazy I'm sorry, it's just the way things are going. And finally, a large hint of foreshadowing that I think maybe buried deep but I may be wrong and it's very obvious so if you have any guesses on the foreshadowing, feel free to take a guess either in the reviews or if you want to keep it private PM it. Anyway this goes I love to read your reviews and it makes my day to read every bit of honesty, even reading some honesty when I don't get a review. Oh almost forgot, LunarBlaze, if you are reading this, I apologize for before. Catherine was not supposed to cross the border and be slightly mean. I'd say she didn't mean it but then I'd be lying. But I don't think it's your fault. You have stuff to do like every other human being and it was Christmas recently so that's another reason to pardon it. Plus if you have writers block who cares, you're stuff is worth the wait and always great to read. Nothing can be compared to the joy I feel except reading everyone's reviews. And let's not forget the man who helped me gain the confidence to do this story, Mr. Fatherfail (aka Aaron) himself. If I hadn't sent him an OC for The Silence Uprising, this stuff would probably never been posted and I wouldn't know all of you reviewers. Aaron, I must thank you for that and salute you. You are truly one of the best author's for Fairy Tail fanfic I have ever read (Blaze being a close second). I really hope you all enjoyed it and I'll only be updating this story until I work out a schedule for the stories. Crap I'm making this longer than need be and I still have one thing to say: I can't update next week because it's my finals week. Not happy about. Anyway I'm going to have something caffeinated to help me go to sleep so Roxas, if you please.

Roxas: You know the drill of reading and reviewing so please do so. We will see you later. So until then, ciaossu.
