DISCLAIMER: I do not own Fairy Tail, I only own my OC.

CHAPTER NINETEEN: FAIRY TAIL'S VICTORY

Lucy is then kidnapped by Gajeel after he, Sue, and Boze fight and defeat Rufus and Loke. Natsu battles Gajeel to save Lucy.

The Fairy Tail Mages are slowly being overpowered by the Shade troopers. Suddenly, the Shade troopers come together and form a large ball of dark energy with plenty of arms. This one big ball of energy created by the Shade troopers moves to the Fairy Tail Guild and throws multiple punches at it, causing it to start to crumble. This reduces Cana to tears and the guild members try to stop the Shades from destroying their guild.

The Fire Dragon Slayer of Fairy Tail and the Iron Dragon Slayer of Phantom Lord engage in battle. After nearly defeating Natsu, Gajeel sees the wrath of Natsu after he manages to recover from all the blows he took with the help of Lucy, and the inspiration to protect their guild.

The Shades continue to destroy the guild while the Mages try to stop it. Macao tries to calm Cana down.

Lucy has to figure out a way for him to eat, and her only option is to call Sagittarius, the only key she has left, and hope he can produce fire in any way. He comes, wearing a horse suit, and Lucy is delighted. She asks if he can shoot fire, but Sagittarius answers that he can't. Natsu is then left powerless before Gajeel, who forces him to see his guild being destroyed.

Past...

"Whoa! It's huge! This is a wizard guild?!" A young Fire Dragon Slayer stares at the guild in amazement.

"It's Fairy Tail." The Master replied.

"Fairy... Tail?" Natsu repeated, wondering what it means.

"Yes. No one knows if fairies have tails or not or even of fairies exist at all. Thus the name signifies eternal mystery, eternal adventure..." Master Makarov explained the name behind Fairy Tail.

"I don't really understand, but this is awesome!" Natsu jumps up and down in excitement.

Past...

"Huh? What do you want? You got a nasty look." A young Black Dragon Slayer stares at Natsu like he has a bad feeling for some reason.

"What?!" Natsu growled.

"Oh, an argument?" Macao watches the Dragon Slayers argue for the first time.

"Do it! Do it!" Wakaba chanted.

"Never mind, you're just some pretty boy." Natsu turns around, uninterested.

"Who're calling a pretty boy, slanty eyes?!" Snow crashes his forehead into Natsu.

"You, white haired freak!" Natsu shouted back. Then the two start to brawl in the middle of the guild.

"He's certainly feisty." Master Makarov stated.

"This is great." Reedus watches the two fight.

Present...

Natsu watches the banner of the guild fall off.

Past...

A young Erza breaks the Dragon Slayers fight, almost breaking their necks. "Stop it."

"You pickin' a fight?!" Natsu shouted.

"You idiot...!" Snow gives him a worried expression.

Erza easily beats them up, throwing them into the wall. "Fools."

"Why me, too...?" Snow weakly said.

Erza glares at them. "No fighting. Do I make myself clear?"

"Y-Yes...!" Snow raises his hand in the air.

"S-So strong! S-So scary!" Natsu rubbed the back of his head.

"What is your name?" Erza asked.

"N-Natsu..." He mumbled, looking away from her.

"Natsu, huh? Listen. Everyone who joins Fairy Tail is like family. And this is their home. Home isn't a place for fighting. Do you understand?" Erza asked.

"Uh-huh..." Natsu agreed, but he didn't actually understand.

"I'm Erza. It's good to meet you." Erza introduced herself.

"Erza is scary..." Natsu commented.

"Yeah, huh?" Snow agreed. They both smile at each other, but turn away in annoyance.

Present...

The entire guild collapses.

Past...

"Natsu! Where are you going?" Lisanna asked.

"Wait, is that...?" Mira asked.

Natsu holds up a job request flier. "I'm off to do a job now!"

"You do know what the flier says, don't you?" Mirajane asked.

"Well, umm... "We want you to get rid of... some thingy... The some thingy is at someplace or other and is something... I think? The reward is 50,000 Jewel!" Natsu does this best to read the flier.

"That's not what it says at all!" Lisanna commented.

"Get off my back!" Natsu said in annoyance.

"You idiot. How'd you get the reward exactly right but all the rest wrong?" Mirajane teased.

"Mira-nee!" Lisanna said.

"I can read...! Igneel taught me how!" Natsu clenches the flier. "But none of the stuff makes any sense!"

"Natsu...!" Lisanna consoles him.

"I learned all the words for food! Hamburger! Spaghetti! Rice bowls! Cake! Cookies! Stew! Soup! And... Darn it!" Natsu stomps his foot between his words. "It's not my fault I only know the names of food! But he really did teach me...! Igneel taught me how to read...!"

"Don't cry, Natsu. You're too cute..." Mirajane teased, looking creepy at the moment.

"Hey, now. Keep your hands off." Lisanna commented.

"I ain't crying!" Natsu yelled.

"Knock it off, all of you." Erza walks in on the scene. Mirajane crosses her arms, giving Erza a "hmph." "There's nothing to be ashamed of. It isn't Igneel's fault. It's just that there are countless words out there."

"You're annoying..." Natsu puts his hands behind his head.

"If you don't know them, then all you need to do is learn them. Come with me. I will teach you!" Erza offered.

"Forget it!" Natsu refused. "You scare me too much!"

"I'm only going to teach you vocabulary. What is there to be afraid of?" Erza drags Natsu by his hair. Mirajane laughs at them as Natsu struggles.

"Good luck, Natsu... In many different ways..." Lisanna said.

"You're pathetic, simpleton!" Snow rests his head on his hand, sitting at a table. A bag flies into his face.

"Don't act so big, Mr. Pretty Boy!" Natsu snarled.

"You wanna fight, Mr. Snot Everywhere?!" Snow growled back.

"Enough playing!" Erza breaks the fight once again. "Three days!" She glares at Natsu who looks at her in confusion. "Think of me as Igneel #2. In three days I will hammer into you all of the vocabulary you will need to survive as a Fairy Tail wizard." Erza has her sword in her hands, staring down at Natsu. "Until then, you will not be allowed to eat or sleep."

"All right, fine, then! I'lll learn your stupid stuff!" Natsu shouted.

Present...

"How do you like the guild, Natsu?" Master Makarov asked.

"Huh? It's great! Erza's scary, but everything else is really neat! I even learned a ton of vocab words! I wanna join!" Natsu said in excitement.

Natsu remembers about the time he found an egg and hatched it with Lisanna. He also remembers about Lisanna saying her last good-bye to Natsu before she left to the S-Class quest. He remembers when he was standing in front of Lisanna's grave. And the time when he met Lucy and when she joined the guild. The most important memory, Fairy Tail's pride.

The Shades then separate and return to their individual forms. Even with the disheartening loss of their guild building, Fairy Tail keeps on battling the Shades and declare that the fight isn't over yet.

Snow wakes up from the light. "What is this magic?! It's warm and somehow feels familar..." He sees the two Masters facing each other.

Master Jose attacks, but Master Makarov nullifies it. "Everyone get away from here!" Master Makarov warned.

Snow and Gray get up as they see their Master. "Master!" Snow called out.

"What are you doing here?!" Gray asked.

"Do as he says!" Erza flies away from the Master. "Let's go!"

"B-But...!" Snow argued.

"Can you stand, Mira?" Gray asked.

"Now that you're here, I have no business with these small fries. However, I will put an end to them after I'm through with you." Master Jose said.

"We'll only hinder our master if we stay here! Let's leave everything to him!" Erza said. They leave their Master to fight Master Jose.

Master Makarov calls forth Fairy Law, and a gargantuan Magic Circle is opened in Magnolia's sky. The light makes the shade soldiers disappear.

"It's Fairy Law." Erza recognizes the bright Magic.

"Fairy Law?" Snow questioned.

"It vanquishes darkness with scared light. It only vanquishes what the caster acknowledges as an enemy. It's an ultimate spell, considered one of the most legendary to exist." Erza explained.

The Fairy Tail-Phantom Lord war ends with the defeat of Gajeel and Phantom Lord Guild Master Jose. Fairy Tail emerges victorious.

"We beat Phantom Lord!" All the guild members of Fairy Tail cheer.

Master Makarov stands tall on the top of the Phantom Lord guild, looking down at his children as they look up at their Master in pride. "This victory was not by my hand alone! This victory belongs to our entire family..."

"I knew you could do it, Gramps..." Natsu smiles to himself as he thinks about Master Makarov and Fairy Tail's victory.
