Ernesti had awoken and saw that his blue greens eyes had been swapped for red ones. "Not sure I like the new look." Ernesti admitted.
Looking around he saw that Natsu was on a raft having a problem keeping his lunch down Happy was an ice cube, Wendy and Carla were gone and the light brown haired trimens member was on his knees.
"Alright something tells me that things did not go well." Ernesti said it was then that Lucy had summoned Aquarius that he noticed Angel was there and summoned Scorpio.
It turned out the two celestial spirits were actually dating that surprised Ernesti a little bit it was when Scorpio was going to leave with Aquarius on a date that Ernesti called out. "Wait you can't leave yet." Ernesti then dashed off and then came back with flowers.
"Here you go Scorpio no date is ever complete without flowers at least that's what my mom said." Ernesti said to the spirit.
Aquarius took the flowers from Ernesti as Scorpio patted his head. "Aquarius was right you are adorable which is why the law was made." Scorpio said before picking Aquarius up bridal and carried her off.
"Bye Aquarius, Bye Scorpio." Ernesti happily waved at duo who smiled at the youth before disappearing.
"Well looks like you are without your strongest spirit." Angel gloated.
"Not yet I still have one more." Lucy said before she summoned Leo Angel countered by summoning Aries as the two spirits looked on as they were regretting what was about to happen.
"Hello Aries." Ernesti yelled happily shocking the poor ram girl. "Oh sorry my name's Ernesti Echevalier it's a pleasure to meet you at last Leo spoke lots about you." Ernesti began shaking the girls hand as she looked a bit nervous.
"Oh um hello it's nice to meet you at last to Aquarius and Virgo speak lots about you that's why the new law was made." Aries spoke.
"Oh enough of this Aries attack Ernesti." Angel said.
"I can't the law prohibits it." Aries told her master.
"Oh for the love of what law are you referring to." Angel asked.
"Simple no celestial spirit may harm Ernesti unless under extreme circumstances." Aries replied meekly.
"What the hell do you mean theres a law that prohibits any harm to Ernesti." Angel yelled.
"It's so not fair." Lucy bemoaned her roommates insanely large amount of good luck.
"I'm sorry my lady I wanted to tell you sooner I just got scared as Virgo was busy punishing herself and Aquarius just didn't feel like it." Aries admitted to both women.
"What about the others." Lucy asked.
"Um well." Aries didn't want to think to ill of the others as they mostly were ruled by their male desires and Gemini was childish.
"Yeah you're right." Lucy admitted having caught on while Angel had a tick mark form on her head.
"I was wondering why Gemini was nervous when they saw a riding crop." Angel admitted.
"Well I'm going to return to the spirit plane and Lucy it was nice meeting you and Loke good to see you." Aries smiled shyly as she looked at Ernesti. "Oh and Ernesti you are just the cutest thing ever." Aries grabbed the boy in tight hug.
"I'm going to head back as well Lucy and check in on Aries." Leo said as both spirits left.
"Hah I still have a couple left." Angel said as she summoned Gemini and chisel that turned itself into a sword as Gemini transformed into Lucy. "Now attack them both." Angel pointed in Lucy and Ernesti's direction.
Gemini and Chisel recognized Ernesti Gemini having learned not to attack Ernesti or else they would be punished by Aquarius again panicked as Chisel turned back into a metal ball with a red eye and ran back to the spirit plane.
"You've got to be crazy do you have any idea of what will happen to us if we attack Ernesti here and now and Aquarius finds out about it." The Lucy double cried in terror. "Sorry but you are on your own." with that Gemini left but, not before apologizing to Ernesti who just smiled and waved it off.
"How can this be happening to me." Angel gritted her teeth in anger at every spirit she owned not being willing to harm the child who was smiling as if he hadn't a care in the world. "Fine I'll kill you Lucy myself."
"Oh, Angel you were going to make Leo and Aries fight each other." Ernesti asked.
"Of coarse I was you foolish child." Angel growled.
"I see well then I think I need to have a word with you." Ernesti said as sickly sweet smile made it's way onto his face and a jet black aura shot out of the boy with a dreaded music of hell playing and what looked like the spirit of death about ready to tear into Angel. Angel stood shaking like a leaf as Ernesti approached the poor stunned wizard.
Both Lucy and the member from blue pegasus watched in dread at what he did to the poor woman who fell back into the lake as Natsu's raft decided to move on down the river with Lucy chasing after it. Ernesti decided to get Angel onto to dry land were she rested beat and knocked out.
"Another one bites the dust as they say." Ernesti said.
Ernesti took off to try and find Jellal and Erza that is when he felt it, it was foreign yet familiar all at the same time like he always had and just never knew how to touch upon it's power. He could feel it coarse through him like lightning did through the power wires and once awake Ernesti stopped and began to access the power.
"Take Over Phoenix soul." Ernesti yelled unaware of how truly dangerous it was to perform this without prior experience and like that bright silvery grey wings sprouted from his back. Silver hair became wild and unkempt his arms became claw like with dark grey lizard like scale going up his arms. His feet had become wolf like and had the knee bend in reverse as fox like tail grew out the back side and bright grey feathers adorned his body except for his chest which had a breast plate that barely covered it with the Fairy Tail logo on the right side and the Silver Phoenix on the left. His eyes became bird like as his teeth became like that of a lion with two sharp front fangs with cat ears appearing on his head.
Ernesti was lost in the chaos and took flight trying and failing to gain some semblance of control then he decided to go after Nirvana and see if he could gain control back onto his body. He looked down and saw a sight that had him smile a bit as Virgo was there with Lucy and Natsu who had changed both of their attire Virgo made mention something about a mate. Ernesti crashed into Lucy and lefted her easily into the air where he embraced her in a hug as he could at least recognize the girl as a friend.
"Hey ya jerk put Lucy down right now." Natsu yelled as Ernesti merely tilted his head at him.
"Ernesti is that you." Lucy asked getting a animal noise and nod.
"Natsu it's Ernesti I think something might have happened." Lucy yelled down to Natsu who looked at the strange bird creature holding Lucy. Ernesti landed and that is when Gray, Sherry, and Lyon leapt out of the forest dodging wires as both Loren and Eve came out neither looking happy.
There was a crunching noise as Adam came out dragging with him Racer Adam smiled in embarrassment at making his two teammates worry about him.
"Adam." Both Loren and Eve said crashing into the boy giving him a very tight hug.
"What the hell were you thinking pulling a crazy stunt like that you gave the both of us a scare." Eve said.
"Please Adam no more at least not right now we can't handle any more scenes today." Loren said sighing happily and tiredly.
Ernesti then caught the scent of a person he knew very well and took off to find Erza as he landed right next to the woman looking at the sight of Nirvana being released as Erza was about to explain what happened. She looked over and noticed a strange bird like creature that oddly reminded her of Ernesti if he used Take Over. The bird creature looked over at her and gave a happy smile as it hammered the fact home.
"Ernesti is that you." Erza asked getting a happy response.
Ernesti then notice another person by the name Cobra Ernesti launched himself at the man and threw a powerful punch which cratered the ground the man had been standing on a moment ago. Cobra tried to listen in on what Ernesti's movements were going to be only to realize that the kids head was a chaotic mess right now as he leapt away from Ernesti crashing into the ground with a high powered kick which caused the ground to explode.
"Erza what is going on who is that or better question what is that child thing." Jellal asked clearly confused.
"That's Ernesti and it looks like he tried a 'full body take over' which has left his mind in a bit of a mess." Erza explained. "He saved me when you were about to blast me as you had something of an interest in him trying to find out his magic."
"I see well looks like she's handling herself fairly well if I do say so." Jellal said as the landscape was becoming an active war zone as Cobra was desperately trying to dodge Ernesti's attacks with more than few bruises and scratches. Cobra tried to poison the child with his snake only for Ernesti to grab it around the neck and slam it's head into the ground burring it's head. Ernesti noticed an attack coming his way and flew over grabbing both Erza and Jellal easily lifting them both into the air Ernesti noticed a strange glyph of sorts on Nirvana.
"Honestly Jellal a detonation spell." Brain said as he approached the Glyph. "Who do you think taught you this type of magic as I did work for the Magic Council as a member of the invention core."
Jellal recollected how it was Brain who showed Jellal how to perform this magic as Brain easily by passed the barrier Ernesti then noticed Carla and Wendy coming his way Brain entered the city along with Cobra. Ernesti flew inside Nirvana and dropped Jellal and Erza on the ground as the whole structure began to revive itself lifting everyone into the air.
Ernesti was about to continue onwards when Erza grabbed him holding from venturing further. "Listen Ernesti I don't know what's going on inside your head right now however as it stands right now you are more in danger than the rest of us find Wendy and stay with her."
Ernesti looked down for a moment then back up at Erza hoping she'd change her mind but reluctantly left Ernesti then flew to where Wendy was and easily grabbed her and flew to another part of Nirvana a part that had Alexander Heavy smoking there.
"Kid you are just full of surprises." Alexander said as he touched Ernesti's head and Ernesti reverted back to normal.
"Thanks Alexander it was like riding a roller coaster blindfolded while I was trying thread a needle." Ernesti said he smiled in mild embarrassment.
"No problem kid but we have to stop Brain right here and now." Alexander said as Ernesti nodded.
"Lets get going then Wendy stay behind me okay I know you don't know how to fight but as the medic your job is very vital to us right now." Ernesti said to Wendy causing her to blush a little at being thought of as highly valuable.
"That's putting things mildly." Carla said with a smile. 'At least she'll treat Wendy right.' Carla thought.
That is when Nirvana began moving and it's destination was the Cait Shelter guild they all realized the importance of stopping Nirvana now as the group took off and ran towards the centre. Natsu was on one of the structures legs and fell off due to his motion sickness. Happy had become unfrozen and grabbed him and took him up to where Brain and Cobra where as he interrupted Brain's control of the weapon. Natsu and Cobra began exchanging blows as all of his moves where predicted by Cobra who easily dodged them.
"That kid was giving me a hard time than you are right now." Cobra said.
"What kid is he talking about." Happy asked.
"It was Ernesti you gave you those bruises wasn't it." Natsu said.
"Yes it was time level the playing field." Cobra said as his snake grew wings and took flight with Cobra on it.
Natsu had tried to attack Cobra again only for the man to read his thoughts and dodge all of the attacks with ease it was when Natsu started clearing his mind that he began to make progress on some of his hits actually landing. It was when Natsu was smashed into a lamp that a large amount of fire was swallowed by the salamander. Natsu had landed a powerful flaming punch to his attacker Cobra revealed he was a Poison Dragon Slayer and swallowed his snakes poison turning his arms into Dragon Claws.
Natsu got hit with Cobra's dragon breath and was getting weaker by the moment as Cobra grabbed hold of him and was going to slam Natsu into the ground. Natsu had let out a terrible draconic roar that caused Cobra a great deal of pain for his poor ears.
"Good old Natsu always reliable." Ernesti said with a happy grin hearing the roar as everyone covered their ears from it.
Ernesti, Wendy, Alexander, Hoteye, Lucy, Carla, Jura, and Gray all met up with one another as Hoteye had switched sides causing Ernesti a happy grin it was then that Midnight showed up.
"I'll handle this one." Ernesti said a determined glint in his eye.
"Wait Ernesti you don't even know what this guy is capable of." Gray said.
"To true you foolish child." Midnight said behind Ernesti.
"Well it really isn't finished yet but here is hoping it'll be enough." Ernesti said. "Reequip Silver Prince." Ernesti was bathed in a golden light as it faded a silver crown sat atop his head with metal gloves coming up his arms and stoping at the elbow. There was a chest plate that was still left his stomach exposed as his neck had a metal guard on it armoured boots stopped at the crotch area with the Silver Phoenix logo on the chest plate and the Fairy Tail logo on a bright blue cape that came off of Ernesti's neck. Ernesti was holding a shield in his left arm that was almost as big as he was and a sword that shined beautifully in the light.
"So you changed your clothes big deal." Midnight said unimpressed.
"Oh I think it is." Ernesti said appearing behind Midnight.
