Okay so here is Chapter 12 finally! It took me a little longer than I expected to write something so short but I got it done. Also the reason this chapter is so short compared to others is because I wanted to end this chapter right before the action starts. So on another note, I have a request to make. Is someone hear good at drawing/ creating drawings? I am really interested in a drawing of Mikoto as she is in this story wearing a special armor. I want it to be an armor fitting of the goddess of Lightning and Thunder. It would need to also show her fairy Tail mark on her left thigh. No other restrictions on color or design. It just has to show the mark and be fitting of a lightning goddess. If you want to do this just message me. On that note please enjoy this chapter and please leave a review, good or bad.
It has been three days since Gildarts returned to Fairy Tail, and a storm was brewing in Magnolia, and not just the storm in the clouds above. Mikoto and Touma were resting with each other in the guild hall just listening in on the many conversations. Gildarts and Makarov were talking about missions, but there was one conversation that really took Mikotos interest. She saw Mirajane and Elfman preparing to go outside, which was weird especially with this weather, until she remembered the reason from her reading. It was confirmed when Mikoto heard lucy asking Erza.
"It's the anniversary of their sister, Lisanna, death. They are going to visit her grave," Erza explains. This one sentence also reminds Mikoto what was about to happen in the coming hours. She was going to let it happen, but this time she would be involved.
"Touma, you know whats about to happen right?" Mikoto turns her head to her boyfriend and whispers.
"Yes I do. The anima is about to take fairy tail and Magnolia to Edolas," Touma responds in whisper.
"Yes, and I have a plan. You will not be affected by the Anima, nor is there any way for you to get to Edolas, so this is going to be all up to me. When the Anima strikes, hold on to me to prevent it from affecting me. From there I will meet up with Mystogan and Gajeel, and convince him to send us both to Edolas. Once there I will meet up with Wendy, Happy, Carla, and Natsu to help out with the following events," Mikoto explains her plan.
"Sounds good to me, just don't get to crazy in Edolas, I will keep watch in this world." Touma replies, knowing all too well that Mikoto tended to go overboard without him around. Mikoto was going to reply sharply when she noticed that Carla and Wendy had already disappeared, which signaled that the Anima was about to happen. She grabbed hold of Toumas right arm at just the right moment as the Anima struck down just a second after. Mikoto watched as the Guild disappeared around her and then everything suddenly went black. Mikoto and Touma pushed through the dust that covered them and then went their separate ways. Touma left the remains of the city to see if any other place was affected while Mikoto went to search for Mystogan and Gajeel. She found them just before Gajeel was going to be sent to Edolas.
"Mystogan and Gajeel! Wait up!" Mikoto yells out while using her ability to get to them faster.
"Who are you?" Mystogan asks, having never met Mikoto before.
"Her name Is Mikoto, she is a new member with incredible powers, and that says alot when Im saying it. Let me guess, you want to go too?" Gajeel states, slightly annoyed.
"Yes. I know whats going to go down there, and I think our guild needs my help more now than ever before. So Gajeel can you please give me one of those tablets Mystogan gave you?" Mikoto asks. Gajeel begrudgingly gave her one, which she quickly took. Then as Mystogan was sending them off she raised her right hand in the guilds hand gesture and said, "For Fairy Tail!" Her eyesight flashed white and then only seconds later she felt herself falling from the sky. She looked around herself, quickly realizing that she was now in Edolas and that Gajeel was falling right next to her. They both landed pretty easily, and then Mikoto tests her ability, realizing that she could still use her esper abilities. Also she knew that because of that pill she took she would be able to use her magic as well. She had her HF Blade strapped to her side as well so that was another advantage she had to use.
"So Gajeel, lets split up and look for everyone else," Mikoto suggests.
"Sounds good to me, I would want to be with you anyways," Gajeel responds rudely.
Mikoto ignores most of his comment and replies, "Remember to not use your magic unless absolutely necessary. In this world, magic is not something that humans can use easily so if you are seen using it like it's nothing that will draw unwanted attention."
Gajeel looked upset at her speaking as if she was giving an order, but he saw the wisdom in her words so he did not reply, instead he took off running in one direction. Mikoto turned with a sigh and used her ability to move around quickly, being careful to avoid areas with troop or other people. Eventually she saw the royal army in their legions try to attack a tree that then teleported away. She realized that this was Edolas Fairy Tails Guild hall and that the people she was searching for were in there. Again using her ability she managed to sense where the guild hall was being teleported and transported herself there.
As Mikoto walked over to the door to enter, she could hear Natsu and Wendy explaining where they were from and why they came here. At that moment Mikoto decided to enter, pushing the doors to the guild hall wide open. As expected the members of edolas fairy tail looked very similar to Earthlands fairy Tail but with slight differences. She saw the look of panic on their faces, as none of them knew who she was. Some grabbed their magic weapons while others took a step back.
"So this is the Edolas Fairy Tail, Im glad I got here so quickly." Mikoto comments, not caring about the magic weapons being pointed at her.
"Mikoto!"" Wendy exclaims running over to her friend and Guildmate.
"We thought you were taken with the rest of the guild!" Carla states, also walking over.
"We cant use are magic!" Natsu complains, somehow hoping Mikoto would have a way to restore their magic. In that moment Mikoto regrets not having grabbed more of the pills from Gajeel, but she couldn't hold on to this thought.
"Who is this?" Edolas Lucy asks walking over.
"This is Mikoto, one of the strongest members in our guild, my friend, and the person who has been teaching me to be stronger," Wendy says, along with Mikoto taking a slight bow in greeting.
"Its nice to meet you Lucy. I have to say you are alot different that the Lucy from Earthland," Mikoto says.
"Did you also come here to look for your Guildmates?" Edolas Mirajane asks.
"Yes I did, and to also crush anyone who gets in our way," Mikoto responds smiling.
"You did hear your friend right? You can't use your magic here so you are pretty defenseless." Edolas Juvia states.
"First of all I am a very good hand to hand fighter and I have my sword, secondly I can still do this," Mikoto responds and uses her ability to force all the loose metals in the guild hall to hover in the air as electricity began to fill the room.
"What in the hell?" Lucy exclaims in shock.
"Im whats called an Electromaster, a person who can completely control electricity in all its forms and all its effects. This is not a magic, but a power I have inside of me," Mikoto explains.
"Why did you come here then? Couldnt you have just used this power to find your friends?" someone in the guild asks.
"Yes I could have, but thats not really how I like to do things sometimes. I wanted to find Wendy, and Natsu first. Now we need someone to help us take them to get weapons," Mikoto states.
"I will help you with that, I know of a good place," Lucy comments. With lucy now onboard the group leaves the guild hall and she leads them to a small town. Once there they enter a black market and buy some magic weapons, with lucy paying for them. They were about to leave the city when they were attacked by royal guards who recognized them as Fairy Tail members, and Instead of fighting they ran and hid. From there they run into earthlands Lucy, who was attacked by the royal guards and showed that she was able to use her magic. The rest of the night was spent in a hotel room where some comedy happened because both Earthland Lucy and Edolas Lucy looked so alike. Then Gemini was brought into the mix causing the resulting events to get even funnier. Once morning came, the group realized that Edolas Lucy had left, leaving them some directions on how to get to the royal city. Mikoto decided to go on ahead and scout everything out so she used her ability to transport her to the city. Once there she ran across the building tops eventually getting to the castle. She sneaked her way in, carefully avoiding any guards and the ones should could not avoid were quickly taken out without any noise. Eventually she got to the top of the castle, a place where no guards were at and looked over the city. From there she could see everything. She had to admit the view was not as good as the one back in Academy city, but it was still okay. Thats when she noticed the giant Lacrima in the middle of the city, with many guard surrounding it. She guessed that was one that was holding at least some of her guild members. Than she looked into the sky and saw an even larger Lacrima on top of a floating Island. She guessed that that was the one that contained even more of her guildmates. She knew she could not do anything to free them, as she was not a dragon slayer, but she could still do something to help Gajeel and the others have an easier job. So from the top of the Castle, she used her ability to draw in a huge electrical storm. It thundered down on the royal city, causing widespread damage and drawing the full attention of the royal army, so so she thought. Some of the officers even noticed that the storm seemed to be drawn to the top of the castle, but none of them suspected anything out of the ordinary. Mikoto let the storm do its thing as she leaped back into the castle and began to search through the castle for anything on what the King was planning. Thats when she found some documents about the dragon canon. After Reading the documents she realized the plan that they had. She had not researched much about what happened during the events in Edolas back in Academy city, as she was not interested in them, but now she wished she had. From the document she had just read, it seemed like the royal army was going to capture Dragonslayers and take their magic out of them, which was in no doubt a life threatening procedure.. Then they would use the magic to smash the lacrima on the floating island into the exceeds home island. This would in turn destroy the exceeds as well as spontaneously creating all the magic energy the world would need for a long time. She stuffed the plans into her pockets and was about to leave when three guards spotted her. She dealt with them quickly using her ability, but they had already sounded the alarm, forcing Mikoto to flee. As she escaped she could only think of one thought.
Natsu, Wendy, I hope nothing happens to you. I know your coming here, so I have to meet up with you quickly, or my worse fears will be realized.
Where are the people that accused me?
The ones who beat me down and bruised me
They hide just out of sight
Can't face me in the light
They'll return but I'll be stronger
ake me where I've never been
I want to go there
This time I'm not scared
Now I am unbreakable, it's unmistakable
No one can touch me
Nothing can stop me
Sometimes it's hard to just keep going
But faith is moving without knowing
Can I trust what I can't see?
To reach my destiny
I want to take control but I know better
Forget the fear it's just a crutch
That tries to hold you back
And turn your dreams to dust
All you need to do is just trust
