On with the story
"So the fighting is over, is it?" Gildarts asked. He could sense that the tension in the air faded away a few minutes ago.
"Does that mean we won?!" Lisanna clasped her hands together. "We did it…"
"Yeah, we did…" Laxus looked down at Makarov. "Hear that, old man? It's finally time to take you home."
"It was a long fight…" Nab rubbed the back of his head. "Things looked bad a lot."
"No kidding…" Cana held onto her right arm. It still wasn't moving the way she wanted it too. "I need a drink."
"We'll have to fix the guild first." Mira placed a hand on her cheek. "But after that, I'm sure we'll hold a nice celebration…" Her eyes then wandered to Makarov. "And a funeral for Master. He did so much for us…I…I honestly still can't believe he's gone…"
"No one can…" Freed sighed.
"He really did all he could for us until the very end…" That was the kind of man that Elfman inspired to be. "I'll make sure to keep your memory with us, Master! So please, just…get some rest. You deserve it."
With Natsu
He and Erza were on their way to their friends as Erza helped her limping husband
"your hand…" Erza said mentioning of Natsu burned hand
"It's just burned a bit." Natsu rubbed the back of his head. "It'll be okay! Wendy can heal it later."
Erza smiled to her husband as they continued their way to the guild
"I see everyone" Erza said as she can see Laxus and the others up ahead
"it's all over, huh?" Natsu said with a smile
""no, not yet"" A dark voice spoke into Natsu's mind surprising him
"MOM!"
Rose and Mary hollered out to Erza as the twins had spotted her while on their way to the guild
"go" Natsu said as he holds onto a lamp post for support to let Erza go to their children before him
Erza nodded before she made her way to her children as Lucy and the others weren't far behind
"Mom!" Rose and Mary jumped towards Erza as they hugged her tight while crying
"I'm glad you two are alright" Erza said with a smile as she hugs her daughter back
"you're alright!" Lucy said with relief as she had heard from Gray on how Erza took END's attack and nearly died
"I'm fine" Erza told her with a smile before she looks to Gray who was standing beside Juvia
"Gray…" Erza looks at the man as he frowns
"I have a lot of apologizing to do, don't i?" Gray said as Erza nodded
"but it's alright…." Erza said as she turns around to look at her husband "right, Natsu?"
As she turns around, she was speaking to no one as there was no one behind them
"Natsu?" Erza said in confusion as her husband had vanished
"he was right there…." Lucy said as she holds her hands to her mouth
"he disappeared" Gray voice out
""no…Igneel said that Natsu won't disappear…yet why…?"" Erza thought as tears slide down her complexion
It was not just Natsu that had disappeared, everywhere; Gajeel, Wendy, Eric, Laxus, Sting, and Rogue. Every Dragon Slayer in Fiore disappeared
CRACK!
A loud crack was heard as it was heard by everyone
"what was that!?" Gildarts exclaimed as he can feel a bad omen coming
"up there!" Cana exclaimed as the pointed to the sky as it was cracked
"the sky…..got cracked!?" Laxus said in shock before the sky shatters and a black claw appeared out of it
"no….it can't be…." Cana muttered out in fear as two red eyes appeared in the shattered sky
ROOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR!
A terrifying yet familiar roar was heard from within the shattered sky as Acnologia appeared out from within
"My power is overflowing…" Acnologia began to push himself out of the hole in the sky.
"It feels just like that time I mastered the way of the dragon slayer…" His body slowly emerged, power overflowing from him.
"I have become an even more supreme king."
He then flew out from the hole in the sky, his overbearing presence eclipsing everyone and everything. "Everything in this world belongs to me!"
"how!? How is that monster here again!?" Cana shouted out in fear
"hahahahahaha, so this is the power of time! That Black Wizard kept such power sealed! How foolish!"
Spheres of light appeared behind Acnologia as they were magic blasts
"The power is overflowing so abundantly; I cannot suppress it! VANISH TO EXTINCTION, LOWLY HUMANS! ETERNAL FLARE!" These glints of light turned into nothing but manifested destruction that rained from the heavens.
"RUN!" Gildarts shouted out as everyone started running away from the blasts as their town was getting obliterated
"The time is nigh." Acnologia held a sinister grin. "I shall become the perfect dragon of extinction."
"it's all over" "we're doomed!" "how are we supposed to surive?!"
Everyone held out their voices of despair as everything seems to be lost
Rooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrr!
Another roar was heard before a torrent of flames came barraging at Acnologia as the attack cause a direct explosion upon the Black Dragon of Chaos
"what!?" Acnologia exclaimed as the Black Dragon blows away the smoke and looks to the one who had attacked him
"this is as far as you will go, Acnologia" a deep voice spoke as wings spread out and flapped
"You are!" Acnologia exclaimed in surprise as the one in front of him was someone he thought he had killed "Enryuo! Igneel!?"
Igneel appeared in the sky as the fire Dragon breathes out flames from its jaw
Acnologia looks at Igneel before sensing something different from the thought to be deceased Dragon
"no….you are…" Acnologia spoke out as black marking slowly slither around the Fire Dragon's scales "END!"
It was Natsu as he was a Dragon
"you will never harm anyone ever again!" Natsu roared out as the Fire Dragon flies towards Acnologia and rammed the Black Dragon into the ocean
"so you became the same as i!" Acnologia exclaimed at the Dragon "no matter!"
"I shall eradicate you!"
The two Dragons then battled out as the sea became their battlefield
Somewhere
In somewhere not in Ishgal
Crystals like gem filled the area as it had two individuals in the area
Those two individuals are Acnologia in his human form and Natsu
"to think that you came to this domain, my own world" Acnologia said with a grin towards Natsu
"what did you do to Wendy and the others?" Natsu demanded from the destroyer of dragons
"see for yourself" Acnologia said as he points to some crystals as in them were Wendy and the rest of the Dragon Slayers even Irene
"By devouring the ravines of time, I have obtained time-space magic." Acnologia explained. "And as such I shall surpass time and space itself, destroy the world, and within this world of space time, I shall exterminate you all. The last of dragons."
With Erza
Erza and the others cried out for the Natsu who they thought disappeared forever only for their tears to stop when Natsu came in as a Dragon to battle out with Acnologia
"we got to help him!" Lucy said as everyone nodded
"no, you must not" a voice spoke as everyone looks behind them and sees a woman who was identical with Lucy
"who are you?" Erza demanded from her
"my name is Anna, but there's no time to explain" Anna introduced herself but cut her introduction short as Acnologia and Natsu wrecked the near rocky cliffs like it was children toy blocks
"right now, we need to gather everyone and help Natsu in his battle against Acnologia" Anna told them
"that's what we're trying to do!" Gray told her
"no, those two are not Acnologia and Natsu, their just they're bodies" Anna explained
"I and Blue Pegasus tried to defeat Acnologia by luring him into the ravines of time but there was a miscalculation when Acnologia devoured the power of time and took it for himself"
"right now, the real Acnologia and Natsu are still in the dimension between time and space"
"how can we help them!?" Erza demanded very eager to help her husband
"there's only one way" Anna explained with a determined face
In the dimension between time
"Guh!"
Natsu grunted in pain as he was sent flying back to the ground by Acnologia who flicked him away with his hand
"hmph! What has happened to your power, END? Is this all you can give?" Acnologia said with a smirk
Natsu got back up as he wipes off the blood on his lips
""damnit! I can't use my flames in this place!"" Natsu shouted in his mind as he can't use his magic in the dimension between time
"how disappointing, END" Acnologia said with a smirk as he swings his right hand up and a trail of explosions came flying at Natsu who put his guard up but a barrier appeared in front of him and had protected him
"ara ara, did you perhaps forgot all about me?" a voice spoke as Irene appeared in the battle field "I am the mother of Dragon Slayers after all"
"you…" Natsu said before he heard glass shattering sound and turns around and sees Wendy and the others free from their crystal like prison
"guys" Natsu said with a smile as they were freed "you're free, but how!?"
"I heard Charla's voice" Wendy said in reply
"I heard Levy's and Lily's voices" Gajeel said
"Lector too" Sting said
"Frosch too" Rogue added in
"their voices gave us strength" Eric said with a smirk
"let's do this….Natsu!" Laxus said with a smirk
"let's hunt this dragon" Irene said with a smile "Natsu"
"yeah!" Natsu said with a grin as he punched his fists that got ignited into flames
Acnologia merely smirked to them
"I see that I must teach you" Acnologia told them as his power rises "why they call me the Dragon King!"
That's a wrap!
Bye bye
