Here we go for the start of the Tower of Heaven Arc. I hope you all enjoy it!

"Its ok Erza I'll be ok. We'll be out of here soon. Isn't that right?" Simon could only hear the last sentence that Naruto spoke. He didn't respond. instead he brought Naruto to the top of the tower. Into a large room. In this room two men were waiting for Naruto and Simon to arrive.

"Thank you for bringing Naruto here Simon you may leave." Simon nodded and left Naruto with these two men.

"Master Jellal would like to welcome you to the Tower of Heaven Naruto Dreyar."

"So I finally get to see this Jellal. Tell me, what do you want with me?"


Part 2: Chapter 5: Tower of Heaven Part 2

"How dare you speak to Lord Jellal like that you brat!" The second man spoke up in defence of Jellal.

"Oh did I hit a nerve oh please tell me I hit a nerve. I really hoped I hit a nerve." Naruto taughted the man who spoke up to him.

"Hahaha relax Vidaldus. Even in the face of what will happen to him he still shows that cocky and arrogant attitude towards people who hurt his guild mates." Jellal got up off his seat and moved towards Naruto until the light finally could show his face.

"No wonder Erza attacked Siegrain. I was told you were twins but even though you apparently haven't seen each other in several year you are the spit of one another." As Naruto finished Jellal got right up into his face.

"Stranage isn't it. For someone with so much power bits of wood and metal can hold you down." Jellal placed his right hand on Naruto's chest. Naruto's heart pulsed. "Oh don't worry its just a rune to keep you in check. I've heard a few things about your encounter with Jose of Phantom. I think we made a good choice in bringing you here." Suddenly someone came rushing into the room.

"I'm sorry for the disturbance but Erza has escaped. She's knocked out several members and guards."

"And you survived?." Vidaldus looked at the messenger with evil intent.

"Hahaha relax Vidaldus I'm looking forward to see who wins. Erza or myself. A game of future and past."

Suddenly an alarm sounded off.

"Hmm its seems we have intruders. Vidaldus see who it is calling us at this time." Following Jellal's orders Vidaldus turned on a video lacrima and its showed the rest of Fairy Tail who got left behind from the attack in Akane. Jellal looked towards Naruto but he didn't show any surprise to see them here.

"Ohh you not surprised Naruto?"

"Why should I be Jellal. With Natsu's nose would put hunting dogs to shame." Naruto smirked at Jellal.

"Then how about we let them join our game. Shall we?" Jellal nodded toward Vidaldus who flicked a switch.


(A few minutes later)

(Erza)

'I have to find Naruto.' Erza thought to herself as she cut down several more guards.

"Erza!"

"So cool..."

"What are you doing here?" Erza looked to see who called out her name but found Gray, Natsu and Lucy plus one more who she didn't recognise.

"Juvia is."

"Go back. We should not have come here." Erza ordered everyone to leave.

"Don't go sayin' that Erza. If we retreat with our tails between our legs, That'll shame the name of Fairy Tail. I'm not going to let that block head off easy!" Natsu slammed his fiery fist into his palm extinguishing the flame.

"I said go back."

"But." Lucy looked at Erza with concern.

"Happy's been kidnapped! Do you expect me to leave him?" Natsu spoke over Lucy to Erza.

"Happy? Millianna couldn't have..." Erza was shocked as she didn't know about Happy.

"Where is he?"

"I don't know.."

"Ok got it."

"What did you get from that?" Gray questioned Natsu's response.

"Happy is waiting for me!" Suddenly Natsu rang off. Two lines of flames followed him in his tracks.

"Natsu." Erza was stunned to see Natsu move so fast.

"That idiot!" Gray was annoyed at Natsu.

"Natsu." Juvia was worried about Natsu in his efforts to find his friend.

"We're going after him!" Lucy tired to get everyone moving after Natsu but Erza blocked their path with a sword.

"NO! Millianna loves cats above all else. I cannot believe that she would do harm to Happy. I will take responsibility for bringing both of them back. so leave here as quickly as you can."

"No, not without you Erza." Lucy was worried about Erza as she turned away from them.

"This is my problem. It's bad enough I've got Naruto involved in this. I don't want to get you involved as well."

"We're already involved in this Erza You saw Natsu, Right?" Gray asked Erza.

"Erza, what is this tower? Who is Jellal? I understand if you don't want to tell us but you said that they used to be your family, right? But now we're your family. We're on your side, no matter what Erza!" Lucy also asked Erza but reassured her of their support.

"You heard the lady." Gray backed Lucy.

"Go home..."

"Erza..."

"This isn't like you Miss Erza. You'd normally say 'follow me and no complaining!' We'll lend you a hand. Even you get scared sometimes, right?" Gray tried to get Erza to understand but what happened next shocked him more than what he would ever expect. As Erza turned the group seen tears in her left eye. Everyone was stunned to see this. Erza slowly wiped the tear away.

"I'm sorry. Whether I win or lose this battle, I will vanish from this world."

"What do you mean?" Gray wanted to know the meaning behind what Erza said.

"This is a future I cannot oppose therefore... Therefore while I still exist I'll tell you everything." Erza took a deep breath before she spoke to the group.

(Despair OST)

"This Tower is called the Tower of Heaven. It's also called the R System. It's a magical item that allows any person to restore life to someone who is deceased at the cost of many sacrifices. I was one of those sacrifices. In the interest of protecting the order of the Magical world, the construction of the tower had been forbidden by the Magic council since ancient times. However a cult of dark mages wishing to revive Zeref began working on it over ten years ago."

"Wait is this the same Zeref who I think we're talking about?" Gray questioned Erza over this wizard's name.

"Yes, In order to have a high number of sacrifices the cult kidnapped many men women and children alike and forced them into slavery in order to build this tower. Those who tried to escape of rebelled... One by one they disappeared. there was no peace of mind. we lived in constant fear. Even so, I made friends who I could open up to. Even if it was only for a brief moment... and one of the people I knew then was Jellal.

Our group once tried to escape from the tower. When we were caught I went to protect Sho as they wanted the person who came up with the escape plan. But before I could speak Jellal said it was him. They didn't believe Jellal and took me. They beat and tortured me and gauged out my right eye. Jella fought his way to me and cut me loose. He told me we had to fight for our freedom out of this tower. We didn't get very far. I feared they would take me back but they took Jellal in my place.

When I ask taken back to my cell something inside me snapped. I pick up whatever was in front of me and fought for our freedom... To save Jellal. Jellal was our leader. He had a strong sense of justice, and I looked up to him... But. But it was right at that moment that Jellal turned into a completely different person. If it is possible to call a person 'evil' then that is what I shall call Jellal.

During our uprising I lost the person who kept all of us young ones happy. He told us stories of his adventures as a mage of a guild. His name was Rob. He was part of Master Makarov's old group. He was a Fairy Tail wizard. Losing him was hard for me as he died protecting me from what would've been my own death. watching him die in front of me forced me to use my magic for the first time. With my magic I managed to make it to Jellal. But when I got there the Jellal I once knew was no more.

Instead of our freedom outside of this tower he told me freedom is within the tower. Telling me there was no freedom in this world. Jellal then asked me to help him build the R system. That was something I couldn't do. When I said that to him he attacked me. He told me that I and only I could leave this island. He also said if I should return or spoke about the tower to anyone else he would kill everyone starting with the family I still hold dear in my heart... For that reason I... Will fight Jellal."

"So Jellal tricked the other into thinking you were the traitor instead of himself."

"He must of propagandized them somehow after I disappeared. The truth is I kind of did betray them. Either way I will win against Jellal. Only them can I make up for my own sins."

"Big sis. That story. Is that true?"

"Sho."

"You trying to get sympathy from your pals with that tall tale? give me a break! That's not even close to the truth! You blew up our ships and ran away by yourself! If Jellal hadn't noticed your betrayal, we would have all sunk into the sea! Jellal told us that was the fate of those who didn't learn the proper way to use magic. You were drunk from the power of magic! you tried to rid yourself of all of us and your past!

"Jellal told you this?" Gray questioned Sho.

"Is that something the Erza you know would have done?" Lucy added her question as well.

"W-what do you know? You don't know anything about us! Only Jellal's words were able to save us. That's why we spent eight years finishing this tower. For Jellal... If... That was all a lie... If your right, sis... And Jellal is wrong..."

"That's right." Suddenly Simon appeared behind Sho.

"Hey you!" Gray moved to hit Simon but was stopped by Juvia.

"Wait master Gray. This man didn't mean to hurt you. He willingly attacked your ice clone. anyone who is able to use darkness magic you can tell what their intent is. He means us no harm."

"I see Phantom's element four deserves their reputation."

"What's going on?"

"Sho, I put on a performance to both trick you and get them to come to the tower. Naruto seems to have noticed my intent and is playing along with it."

"W-why? Why would you?"

"Sho, Everyone has been fooled by Jellal. I played the fool as well until the time was right."

"Simon you.." Erza could believe what Simon was saying.

"I believed in you Erza. I always did for those eight years. I'm glad I got to meet you again Erza. From the bottom of my heart."

"Simon." Erza hugged Simon she finally had on of her old friends that she remembered back.

"How? How could you believe in her so much? Why? Why wasn't I able to believe in her? DAMN! WHAT IS THE TRUTH?! WHAT SHOULD I BELIEVE IN?!" Sho fell to his knees his mind broken with all the reset event happening.

"It must be difficult to accept it all at once. But let me say this much. For all these past eight years, I have never forgotten about you. I couldn't do anything for you. I'm sorry I was so weak." Erza hugged Sho was he cried into her arms.

"But now you can do it. Isn't that right. I've been waiting for this moment for a long time. Waiting for powerful wizards. To fight Jellal. We'll all work together. we'll have to prevent Wally and Salamander from clashing first."


"It appears that all the pieces are in place for your team Erza. I just need to place my own down now. There is nothing boring abut a one sided game."

"Lord Jellal, Let us join in on the fight."

"Phhh your gonna fight. Hahaha, you've got a stick up your ass. You couldn't beat your way out of a paper bag."

Vidaldus looked at Naruto who stared right back at him. "We'll see about that." Vidaldus then transformed into his fighting form. His eyes and lips were now lined with the colour purple. when he finished two other people appeared alongside him.

"Sooooo the freaky owl boy your friend huh? And who's the wannabe samurai? The length of that sword compensating for something?"

"The assassin's guild, Death's head caucus. Vidaldus Taka."

"Got to hell! I'll show you the lowest pits of the ultimate hell!" Vidaldus pointed towards Naruto.

"Fukuro." The owl man simple hooed at Jellal. "And their captain, Ikaruga."

"Love and life are fated to be broken asunder, yes? This eve shall be a festival. The Special guerilla squad: Trinity Raven, have arrived."

"Its your turn now."


And cut. So the Battle for the Tower of Heaven is about to begin. How will it end? Tune in next time same Naurto time, same Fairy Tail website! Not gonna lie I always wanted to write that lol don't even care if it didn't work. Worth it! Anyway it's time for this weeks Q&A. Not many this week but I did notice a mistake in last weeks as I didn't answer forgot to answer it sorry so I've put it ion this week as question 1.

1) What's the story with the magic council over the guild war? Its the same as Fairy Tail cannon. Phantom Lord disbanded and Fairy Tail got away with nothing done on them.

2) What's up with the abridged jokes added in? Not gonna lie Fairy Tail by PalletTownChampions is my third favourite behind Ninjabridge and TFS of course. Now i was planning on putting in some of the Ninjabridge stuff but then the story would be lost in chaos. I take it more of a homage to their great work and I needed a bit of light heartedness in the part they were added to.

3) Would you be doing the current arc in the Anime? The Zodiac arc? Its a long bit away but I can say right now the answer is NO!

Well that's all for this chapter folks. I hope you've all enjoyed it. Till next time!
