On with story
In the kingdom of Extalia, Wendy, Charla, and Milo walks in the street of the Exceed's town as all eyes were on them
"what's going on?" "it's the fallen" "why is she here with a human?" "why is that guy walking on his front paw?"
Whispers started to spread out as Wendy and Charla stops in the middle of the town
"please take me to your queen" Wendy said "there is danger coming to Extalia"
"out of my way!" Nabi shouted as he made his way towards the two "let me through!"
"this is highly irregular! It's forbidden for a Fallen and Extalia to come here!"
"there is no time for that kind of talk!" Charla said to Nabi "if you people value your lives, you'll listen to us!"
"Nichiya-san and the Guards went after you! What happened to them!?" Nabi demanded
"they were turned into lacrima by the Royal Army" Charla replied as all the Exceeds started to laugh
"there's no way that our Royal Guards of Extalia could be bested by some lowly humans!" "are you sure you're not dreaming?"
Nabi looks in fear as he seems to know something
"it's true! The royal army intends to attack here next!" Wendy exclaimed
"yeah whatever!" "the Queen's magic will just blow them away!" "that's right!"
"you all have to run! Something awful is going to happen!" Wendy exclaimed only to get a rock thrown at her
"just shut up, human!"
More and more rocks started flying at Wendy and Charla as Milo started meowing and hissing at the Exceeds
"Nyaa! Hisss nya nya! Nya! (listen to them! Something bad is going to happen! Why won't you believe them!?)"
"huh? You think we're going to believe in those two words?! And what kind of an Exceed are you!?"
"if you hate humans so much! Do what you want with me! But don't hurt Charla! She's one of you!" Wendy screamed as every Exceed except Nabi started to throw rocks at them
"get out of here!" "get out!" "we Exceeds are way better than all of you human!"
Wendy shielded Charla from the rocks as Charla cried in tears
"nyaaa! Nyaaa! (stop it all of you! We're trying to help you all!)" Milo hissed as he strikes at a nearby Exceed
"he attacked one of us!" "get him!"
All the Exceeds started throwing rocks at Milo as well as the Vul cat just hissed at them all
At the Floating Lacrima Island
Gajeel's battle against Pantherlily was fierce as both fighters were trying to kill each other
"rrrhhh!" Gajeel blocked Lily's giant sword slash as his Iron Scales nearly breaks
"my sword can cut through iron! But you stopped it with you arms!" Lily said as he lifted up his sword "your earth-land magic surprises me"
"too bad. My Iron Dragon Scales are just more than plain Iron" Gajeel said "but I gotta ask you this.. you're one of those cats, right? So why are you with the Royal army"
"that's Ancient History" Lily replied as he swings his sword at Gajeel who blocked it "I've abandoned my past life! And the kingdom of lies!"
"so you just took off, huh?" Gajeel said as he holds the sword with his barehands "a stranded like me!"
"Gihee! I like you!" Gajeel grinned as Lily's Buster Ma'am's blade started to crack "I'm going to make this guy my cat!"
"huh?! How come it comes to this!?" Happy screamed
"My Buster Ma'am?!" Lily exclaimed only to get a punch from Gajeel
"but first I got to teach you on which of us is stronger!" Gajeel exclaimed as he unleashed a fury of punches at Lily before hammering the black Exceed down to the ground
"Tetsuryu no Hoko!" Gajeel fires his breath attack as a hurricane of iron shards, rams Lily against the very ground
"Gwaaaaahh!" Lily shouted out in pain as the entire island nearly breaks apart
"he's scary!" Happy screamed as the poor feline was sent flying from Gajeel's breath attack
Lily stood up from the crater as he throws away his cape and helmet
"you're good" Lily said before he smirks and then dashed at Gajeel to deliver a punch straight to the man's face
"guh!" Gajeel grins back as he returns the punch with his own only to be repelled by Lily's kick then his
The two then punched each other faces with equal grins
Natsu was walking in the hallway as he found Gray who was standing in front of Sugarboy who was defeated
"where's the key? And where's my bike?" Natsu asked as his face plate slides open
"your bike's there" Gray said as he pointed to Natsu's magic bike on the floor
"oh come on! I just waxed it a week ago!" Natsu grumbled as he stands up his bike and stored it away
"where's Lucy?" Gray asked
"she's with that Coco girl, her legs were injured bad so she stayed behind to heal her up" Natsu replied "and where's the key?"
"the circumstance changed and I had to destroy the original key" Gray said while holding the ice replica "we can use this one to activate the MetsuRyuhou and use it to directly hit the lacrima and our friends are back to normal like that"
"sounds like good plan" Natsu said with a smirk before his face plate closes as he quickly summons Enryuo no Kiba
"someone's coming!" Gray exclaimed as from the hallway's shadow, emerges Knightwalker
"Knightwalker!?" Natsu exclaimed as Enryuo no Kiba ignites into flames
"you mean our Erza lost to her!?" Gray exclaimed
Knightwalker was walking towards the Commantation Chamber where the MetsuRyuhou and King Faust were located in
"you're alright, commander Knightwalker!" the soldiers greeted her "you're wounded very badly!"
"it's nothing serious" Knightwalker replied
"a-and who are they? This one looks a lot like Draguma-sama" the soldiers said
"they are the key to the MetsuRyuHou" Knightwalker told them "hurry, open the gate"
"yes!" the soldiers said as they bowed to her before the gate opens and revealed Faust with his army and the MetsuRyuhou
"Erza! Do you have the key!?" Faust demanded from her
"the key was destroyed, but do not worry" Knightwalker said as she threw Gray in front as the man looks at Erza then to Faust
"this one can make another key" Knightwalker told the king
"him?" Faust said confused
"he's an Earthland Wizard, a comrade of the Dragon Slayers" Knightwalker explained
"y-you mean the lacrima in the city square that had vanish has something to do with him?" Faust said as Knightwalker nodded
"exactly" Knightwalker said to the king
"enough explanation, activate the MetsuRyuhou now!" Faust said as Erza holds a dagger to Natsu's neck
"ice Wizard, stand up!" Knightwalker ordered Gray "make no sudden movements!"
The dagger got closer to Natsu's neck as it glints
"start the MetsuRyuhou now"
Gray looks to her before clicking his tongue as he walks towards the giant cannon
"so this is the MetsuRyuhou…" Gray said
"get moving!" Knightwalker exclaimed as Gray looks at the cannon before creating an ice replica of the key
"I only have one chance….the moment I star this thing, I have to aim it higher"
Gray set the key to the lock as he turns it side ways as the cannon started to rumble and shake
"if I can do that, our friends' lives will be saved!"
Soon the cannon started charging as the countdown for the firing sequence started counting down
"how do I adjust the aim!? Where is it!?"
"now fire!" Faust exclaimed as Gray couldn't find the counsel to change the aim's trajectory
"damnit!"
Knightwalker clicked her tongue before whispering into Natsu's ears
"that's enough…" Knightwalker whispered as her hair blows and revealed her earrings and the mate mark on her right shoulder as she was Erza Scarlet not Knightwalker "Natsu!"
"right!" Natsu wakes up as he summons on Reiter no Yoroi and his scythe
"Zangeki!"
Natsu swings his scythe as a flaming slash sends the soldiers flying away
"what is this?!" Faust demanded before Erza held him hostage
"Stop the firing sequence now!" Erza shouted out as she holds her sword at Faust
"Erza! You traitor!" Faust yelled
The soldiers look in shock at what was happening
"what is the meaning of this, Erza?!" Faust demanded from her only to see Erza glowing as she transformed back to her usual Heart Kreuz armor
"I am Erza Scarlet! From earthland!" Erza exclaimed surprising everyone
"the plan worked out well, huh?" Gray said with a smirk
"hahahaha never mess with my Erza" Natsu said as he leans his scythe on his shoulder
"aim the cannon directly at the Lacrima!" Erza shouted out
"don't do anything she says! Fire it now!" Faust shouted out to his solders
"what do we do?!" "cowards! How dare you take a hostage!?"
"better hurry and do what she say" Natsu said as he slammed his scythe on the floor near Faust "when Erza gets angry, I get angry too"
"do it now!" Erza shouted out
"damnit! We have to do it if not the majesty is in danger!" the soldiers started to do what Erza ordered
"forget about me! Fire! We must destroy the exceeds!" Faust shouted but the cannon's aim was getting adjusted
"aim at the giant lacrima!"
"you fool! You intend to give up an eternity of magic!?" Faust shouted out
Suddenly from the ceiling appeared Knightwalker with her spear readied
"Scarlet!" she screamed out as Erza looks in surprise
"Knightwalker!?" Erza exclaimed as she lets go of Faust and blocked Knightwalker's attack
"our fight is far from over, Scarlet!" Knightwalker exclaimed
"at a time like this!?" Erza exclaimed
"his majesty has been freed! Reset the original target!" the cannon started to move again as it was aiming at the island's bottom part
"this is bad!" Gray exclaimed as he and Natsu ran towards the cannon
"Fire!" Faust shouted out as the soldier slammed a giant red button as the cannon charged up
Natsu jumped and tried to cut off the cannon with his scythe but it was too late
BANG!
The MetsuRyuhou fired as a powerful magic blast fired towards the Lacrima
Natsu got sent flying back from the shockwave of the blast as he crashed to the ground
An energy blast blasted towards the floating island as it hits the target and chains appeared and was connected to the barrel of the cannon
Gajeel, Lily and Happy who was on the floating island felt the impact of the blast as the whole island shook
"what was that!?" Gajeel exclaimed
"the MetsuRyuhou has been attached!" Lily said with a grin
"attachment complete, your majesty!" a soldier reported to Faust
"ram it into Extalia!" Faust ordered out
"shit! This is bad!" Gray exclaimed as the soldiers started to gang up on them
Natsu gets up as he grabs his Scythe and spins it around before going into a battle pose as the soldier started to surround him
All of the sudden a Legion appeared from the sky with Lucy on board
"everyone! Get on!" Lucy exclaimed
"Lucy?!" everyone exclaimed in surprise
"what is that girl doing on a Legion?!" Faust exclaimed only to see Coc on board
"it's my Legion!" Coco said with a smile
"Coco!?" Faust exclaimed
"get on the giant thing!" Natsu shouted out as he threw his scythe as it spins around like a boomerang at the soldiers, Natsu then grabbed Gray and threw him on board before getting Erza
"Scarlet!" Knightwalker exclaimed as Natsu and Erza gets on the Legion
Knightwalker glared at her enemy as she grabs her long hair and cuts it off with her spear, making her hair short
"Second Magical Warfare Division! Ready the Legion Squadron to move out! We're going after them!" Knightwalker shouted out as the soldiers complied to him
"I am going as well!" Faust said "ready the Droma Anima!"
"but sire! That is forbidden!" "the royal charter states that.."
"now!" Faust shouted out
The floating lacrima island started to move towards Extalia as the land moves and rumbles
"what…is…this!? We're moving, right?!" Gajeel said as he was holding onto the ground
"that's the Royal Mission!" Lily said "to crash this lacrima into Extalia and destroy both of them!"
"why? Why would anybody do such an awful thing?" Happy asked in tears
The legion, Natsu and the others were riding on was flying as fast as it can towards the giant Lacrima as they planned to stop its collision
"what are we going to do?!" Lucy exclaimed
"how do even stop an entire island!?" Gray exclaimed as Natsu snaps his fingers and summons both his armors
"we just stop it with everything we have!" Natsu shouted out as the Legion rammed itself onto the island
"you can do it Legipyon!" Coco cheered for the giant beast
Natsu and the others jumped off as they started to push the giant thing with all they have
"it's not even slowing down!" Gray exclaimed
"please!" Lucy screamed "please stop!"
Gajeel saw the others as he runs towards the edge
"let's call for a truce, black cat!" Gajeel exclaimed
"you're running away?!" Lily shouted out
"I'm not running or hiding or anything!" Gajeel exclaimed as he jumps off and Happy caught him "we'll finish our battle when I've stopped this thing!"
"stop it!? Stop this island from ramming itself towards Extalia!?" Lily exclaimed "it's futile! There isn't any future for us! There's nothing left!"
"after this, I'm taking my guild back with me by force if I have to" Gajeel said as he smirked at Lily "and I'm going to make you my cat!"
Natsu and the others were using all their strength to push back the giant island but it was pushing back at them
"Gajeel!" Erza exclaimed as she saw the Iron Dragon Slayer joining in "why didn't you change the others back to normal?!"
"the black cat got in my way!" Gajeel exclaimed
"it doesn't matter! I'd take too long to get them back to normal!" Gray exclaimed
"the only we can do now is push this thing back! We have to stop it no matter what!" Lucy shouted as she was using all her strength to push the giant island away from the Exceed's home
Lily looks at their effort before spotting Coco with them
"Coco!?" Lily exclaimed
"Lily!" Coco exclaimed in surprise "so you recognized me? You see, I don't really need an eternity of magic. I'd rather have an eternity of smiles"
"what kind of idiocy is that!?" Lily exclaimed "hurry up and get out of there, Coco! It doesn't matter what anybody tries! There's no way to stop this island!"
"we will stop it!" Natsu shouted as red scales started to appear on his skin "I'll push this thing even if my body breaks!"
The entire Exceeds were in a panic as the giant Lacrima island was closing in
"the royal army is attacking!" "the humans are attacking!" "they're just humans!" "do they think they can defy the queen!?"
As all the Exceeds chatter around with them, Wendy and Charla looks to where the giant Lacrima was
"the Lacrima hit?" Wendy said
"not yet! It looks like Natsu and the others are trying to stop the island from ramming towards Extalia!" Charla said
"Nyaaaaa" Milo meowed out
"I'm sorry, Charla. This wasn't supposed to…" Wendy cried in tears
"what are you talking about!? You can't give up yet!" Charla exclaimed "everybody listen!"
"you still here? Fallen!?"
A rock was sent flying towards Charla who raise her hands to block it but Nadi intervened and got in the line of fire
"throwing rocks…is dangerous….okay" Nadi said
"eh?" "Minister Nadi?"
"these people came to warn us of the danger!" Nadi told them "but….nobody bothered to listen to them! And this is how it all turned out!"
"what are you saying!?" "the Queen can take care of them without breaking a sweat!" "we're not afraid of anything!" "now…let's call the queen!"
"um….about that" Nadi said before seeing the Queen herself coming with some Elder looking cats
"that's quite enough, Nadi" The Exceed's Queen, Chagot came in as all the Exceeds bowed to her "the time has come"
"your majesty!" Nadi exclaimed as all the Exceeds kneeled down before her
"everyone please raise your heads" Chagot said to them all "and I want you to stay calm as you hear my words"
"what's the queen out here for?" "I just know that some really cool magic is going to blow them all away" "shhh….quiet!"
"now Extalia is facing destruction. Soon it will be our inescapable fate…" Chagot proclaimed to them all "that is why I have come to a decision"
"you're going to wipe out all the humans, right!?" "shut up and listen!"
Chagot took off her royal coat and everyone looks to in shock as Chagot only had one wing on her back
"I am a normal Exceed like you all. I am no god nor am I queen" Chagot said to everyone "I don't have any special power to use in fighting against the humans"
"I offer my sincerest apologies for hiding this from you all"
"no..way" Wendy muttered out
"nyaaa" Milo meowed
"you three are called Wendy, Milo and Charla, right?" Chagot said as she turns her attention to the two "I wish to apologize to you as well, I am responsible for all of this, please bear no grudge to everyone here"
"what is all of this?" Charla said
"no, it is we Elders who are responsible for creating the position of Queen" "we are extremely weak people. And long and long ago, we were subject to terrible treatments to humans, and so we made rumours that we made humans believe that we possess great power to protect ourselves"
Charla looks in shock and confusion as they told everyone the real truth
"and to restore the Exceed's own self-conficence…we convince everyone that Chagot has the power of god, at first no one believed but over time humans began to fear this god's power, but in truth this power was us gathering information from all over the world"
"Chagot only has the power to see a bit of the future and that is how she was able to foresee their deaths; we use that ability to make everyone believe"
"that can't be true" "the queen is a goddess!" "hurry up and kills those humans!"
All the Exceeds started to cry in tears as their fear for their lives awakened
"that's sophistry!" Charla exclaimed "it doesn't matter if you have the power or not! You handed down an order to have my friends murdered! That part is real!"
"Chagot never ordered such a thing! The humans must have used the queen's existence to justify…"
"no!" Charla shouted out "you planted weird memories in my head and manipulated me! You ordered me to murder a dragon slayer before I was even born!"
"that was…." Chagot looks to the side as she had no answer
"it wasn't like that! It'd be too long to explain the intricate circumstances!" Nadi said to them
"I don't care about circumstances! What she did was unforgivable!" Charla shouted out
"no" Chago said as she took out a sword and threw it on the ground in front of Charla "what Charla said in correct"
"you are innocent and you have undergone the greatest suffering" Chagot kneeled down in front of them "please hand down your punishment for my crimes. You have the right to do so, as one who loves both the Exceeds and the humans"
Charla looks at the sword before she picks it up
"Charla don't!" Wendy yelled out
"your majesty!" "your majesty!" "my queen!"
"you all must get away from here! Quickly! Before Extalia is destroyed with me!" Chagot ordered to everyone
Charla lifts up the sword as it glints
"Charla!" Wendy shouted out as Charla lifted the sword up
"I don't to evacuate" "I'm going to stay too" "our time is over"
As all the Exceeds cry in tears, they voice out their words to Chagot
"no, everyone! You must leave before this country is destroyed!" Chagot shouted out as Charla slams the sword on the ground
"Don't give up just yet!" Charla shouted out to everyone as they were shock by their actions "this is your country, right!? Do you mean to say that you're all powerless with or without a queen?!"
"even though you lied to everyone! You were struggling hard to stay alive, right?! So why are you giving up so easily!" Charla shouted out as she looks at Chagot
"who cares if you're weak!? You can do anything if you combine your strength! This country won't be destroyed! It's my homeland and I can't let it disappear!
Charla spreads her wings as she flies away towards the giant Lacrima
"I'm not giving up! I'm going to stop that thing!" Charla screamed out
"Charla!" Wendy shouted out in surprise
Everyone looks to his actions as Nabi spreads his wings
"I-i'm going too" Nadi said
"Nadi…"
"because I love this country" Nadi said in tears before he flies away
Natsu and the others were giving it their all to stop the destruction of Extalia as their time is running out
"I feel like I'm getting crushed!" Lucy said
"brace yourself!" Gray shouted out
"we have to stop this thing no matter what!" Erza screamed out
Coco and her Legion were pushing with everything, they have as Lily looks at their actions
"your attempts are futile!" Lily exclaimed "no human being is strong enough to do anything about it!"
Charla came flying in as she joined Natsu and the others in pushing back the giant Lacrima crystal
"Charla!" Happy looks in surprise to see her
"I'm not going to give up!" Charla shouted out "I'm going to make sure Fairy Tail and Extalia surive!"
Nabi came flying in as the cat joins her
"it's you…" Charla looks in surprise to see Nabi
"I want to save them too" Nabi said as a giant flock of Exceeds were flying towards them "and I know that everyone else does too…"
All the Exceeds joined them all in pushing away the giant Lacrima island away from their home
"everyone! Let's do stop it together!" Wendy shouted out to the Exceeds as they use everything they have to push back the giant island
Chagot was having trouble flying as the White Exceed could barely stay air born with one wing
"Chagot! You can't do anything with that one wing of yours!"
"no! I must do something!" Chagot exclaimed "do anything I can!"
Lily looks in sadness as she watches the giant flock of Exceeds pushing back the island
"Lily! Why did you bring save that human?!"
Lily remembered his past, the sin he had committed upon his own homeland
"he was gravely wounded…" lily told the elders
"you fool! Bringing that thing here was the height of recklessness!"
"but…I can't standby while anyone so wounded dies! Even if he is a human!" Lily told the elder
"I can't believe you of all people have forgotten the law!" "we pronounce you as a fallen! You are banished from Extalia!"
"that's ridiculous! Over something so small!" Lily exclaimed as Chagot looks in sadness and guilt
Chagot fell down as her one wing can't bring her to the sky anymore
"Chagot!" "your majesty!"
Lily came to her rescue as the giant Exceed caught her
"Lily…?!" Chagot exclaimed in shock as Gajeel smiled to the action
"your Majesty…" Lily muttered out to Chagot "are you tired of telling lies?"
"I'm sorry, I…" Chagot apologized but Lily cuts her off
"so have I" Lily said in tears "no matter how much I've come to hate it…Extalia is still my home!"
"Lily…"
"but it's impossible…even with all these Exceeds joining together, it still can't be stopped" Lily said as he close his eyes as his tears were pouring down more and more "forgive me! It's all my fault! I could have stopped it! I could have stopped the humans!"
"I'm sure they'd understand" Chagot said as she holds Lily's hand
Natsu and the others with the rest of the Exceeds use all their might to push back the giant Lacrima as it keeps pushing back against them
Natsu gritted his teeth as his necklace glowed crimson bright
"ooooooooooooraaaaaaaaahhhh!" Natsu shouted out as he pulled back his right fist as it burns in crimson red flames
Erza saw what Natsu was doing as she realized his intention
"Come! Enryuo no Yoroi!" Erza shouted out as Enryuo no Yoroi purges and equips itself on her
"Let's go! Erza!" Natsu shouted as the flames started to rage like a twister of flames
"yeah!" Erza shouted as she pulled back her left fist as flames gathered around it
"ENRYUO NO!" Natsu and Erza both shouted out as a giant flaming dragon appeared behind them as it roared out "Hokken!"
Both slammed their fist straight at the giant Lacrima as it was pushed back before a bright explosion was created upon it
The bright explosion early blew everyone away as it creates a bright flare that could be seen by a far
As the bright light dimmed away, the giant Lacrima was gone as the only thing that remains was the island
"the lacrima….vanished?" Gray said
"wh-what just happened?" Lucy said before the entire island disappeared and so did the chain
"it's returned to Earthland" a voice spoke as everyone saw Mystogan riding a white colored Legion
"Mystogan?!" Erza exclaimed in surprise while holding onto Natsu
"I am sorry, everyone" Mystogan said to them all "it took a long time to find traces of an anima large enough to return everything back the way it was"
"I am grateful for your efforts, if it wasn't for you all, I wouldn't have made it in time"
"you mean..!" Gray exclaimed "everyone is back to Earthland!"
"yes" Mystogan said "the Lacrima has passed once again through the anima and returned to its original form from Earthland. It's over"
Everyone then cheered out as they had saved their friends and home from the threat of destruction
"we did it!"
Mystogan took off his disguise as her revealed his face
"Lily…the life you saved was mine…" Mystogan said with a smile "I'm glad I was able to protect your homeland"
"yes" Lily said in tears as the human, he saved in the past was in fact Mystogan himself "thank you…Prince!"
"the Prince has returned!" Coco said in tears as well
"he's a prince?!" Lucy exclaimed
Lily cried and smile in tears before his eyes widen as a magic laser had pierced him from his back
"Guaaaaahhhhh!"
Everyone looks in shock to what had happened as the Black Exceed falls
"black cat!" Gajeel shouted out
"Lily!" Mystogan shouted out to his friend
"not yet!" Knightwalker appeared with an army of Legions as she had just fired the laser from her spear "it's far from over!"
That's a wrap!
Bye bye
