Sorry about the long wait for this chapter but i just had to make sure it was right. Im finally out of school for the semester, so updates should be more often, but im not totally sure about that. Well here it is, the climax to this story. Everything that happens after is just wrapping it up and preparing for the next one. Hopefully you all enjoy this chapter, and please leave a review and tell me what you didnt like and what you liked. Have a great day, and may the father of understanding guide you all
"Why in the hell is he here!?" Gajeel exclaims, fear in his voice. More and more people start making fearful remarks, the statement that this was acnologia causing fear throughout the guilds.
"Was this something that was supposed to happen in the timeline Touma?" Makarov asks worry in his voice.
"No it is not. This never happened in the timeline Mikoto and I researched. I can only guess that he was brought here by the smell of the dragons that came through the gate. Acnologia wants to kill any dragon he finds, so if he smelled 8 of them, he would have surely came charging," Touma states, worry filling his voice. Without a fully healthy and battle ready Mikoto, they had no chance to win a fight.
"Surely the dragon slayers we have here are enough to defeat them if they work together!" Someone says.
"No they cant. One they are all exhausted and beat up. Two, even under ideal circumstances, even combined they are not powerful enough to even hurt acnologia. We have to hope he doesnt notice us, and decides to leave us all alone…" Touma says.
Almost immediately, Acnologia turns, and notices the wizards gathered infront of the castle. He lets out a roar, obviously not going to let them live.
"Rotten Luck….." Touma mutters.
"You just had to say that," Elfman states.
Acnologia lifted his head up, and magic energy began to gather in his mouth. He was charging up a breath attack. The guilds decided to form up one last ditch defense, all of them standing together, to attempt to put up enough magic to block the attack. But it was hopeless. Touma knew he could probably negate the attack, but then Acnologia would just have to fight physically and he would be worthless.
Everyone stayed quiet as Acnologia charged up the attack. Suddenly the sound of someone dropping to their knees could be heard, it was Wendy. She had collapsed and was breaking out crying.
"Please…...someone….save us…." She gets out as Acnologia releases the attack.
The attack rushed towards the group, and Touma put out his right hand, trying to stop the attack. But then the attack was met by a strong electrical barrier, mixed in was pieces of the rubble that contained some metal.
Then the sounds of Wendy crying stopped. The sound of singing could be heard, and everyone turned to see Mikoto struggling to walk over. Her body was covered in cuts and bruises, and her clothes were torn. There was a cut above her right eye, her blood running down it. She was in her level 6 form, but it quickly cut out. But she kept singing, and made her way to Wendy.
Once there she crouched down, and grabbed Wendys hands and continued singing, "So hold me close and kiss my skin, Don't be afraid, let me in. I'll hold you close and take your hand to my heart, Here I am." She sang this while putting one of Wendys hands to her heart, letting her feel her heartbeat. She then pulled Wendy into a hug before standing up.
She walked forward through the guilds to stand at the front, putting herself between the guilds and Acnologia.
"Mikoto, what are you doing, your badly hurt," Makarov states, panic for one he considered his child in his voice.
"Im doing what i must. I came here to save everyone that is currently standing behind me. If that means fighting Ancologia, right here, right now, then i will do it. And I will not lose, i dont have that option. I am going to give it my all, and beyond that. Whatever it takes, you will all survive." Mikoto states simply. She wipes the blood off her forehead, and then continues to slowly walk forward. Touma was about to rush forward to her when he thought different and simply said, "I love you Mikoto, you better win this."
As Mikoto walked, large amounts of electrical energy gathered around her. She quickly transformed but not into her level 6 form, but into her level 6 restrained form.
"Whats wrong!? Shouldnt she be in her level 6 form?!" Natsu exclaims.
"She cant manage it," Erza states before Touma could reply. "Her body is too exhausted and beaten down to maintain that form. This is as far as she can go. From what she said about this form, she might be able to use it to recover in order to fully use level 6. Im assuming thats what she is betting on," Erza continued.
Mikoto then attacked. She appeared in front of acnologia, and then on his side, launching a series of punches charged with massive amounts of electricity. Acnologia reacted surprisingly quickly, swiping at her with his tail and her speed Mikoto dodged the attacks, and blasted him with a blast of electrical energy. Acnologia just tanked the blast, and fired a breath attack at Mikoto. Aware of her surroundings and what the blast could hit, Mikoto managed to dodge it, landing another series of strikes to acnologia.
Just as I expected. My attacks in this form cant do any damage. While i might be faster than him, i think he is still going easy on me. I might be able to do this all day, but so could he, and if i make a mistake, i will get punished, unlike him. I need to try something new.
She appears above acnologia, and activates her waistband. Her HF Blade appears in her hand, and she slices downward with it. Sensing danger, acnologia stepped back, but the attack still manages to make a cut down the length of his chest.
The HF Blade can hurt him?!
Mikoto didnt get much time to analyze this however, as the pain from the wound enraged acnologia. His flurry of strikes kept Mikoto on the defensive, constantly moving around at max speed just to dodge the strikes. But she manages to get a couple more blows in with the sword, making more cuts across his skin. Mikoto realized what was going on, and this caused her to begin to make a plan.
He may be able to absorb all magic, but both my esper ability and this HF blade he can not. I know why he cant absorb my esper ability, but the sword is interesting. Its made of a metal that is not of this world, so thats probably the reason. If I can hit a critical area with either this sword or a Railgun using a metal from my world, i might be able to beat him.
But this thoughts caused a lapse in Mikotos attention to the fight, and Acnologias tail slams into her. She goes flying, landing and rolling across the ground to be once again in front of the guilds and the castle, her sword imbedded into the ground behind them. Her body exited the restrained from from the impact, but mikoto struggles to her feet anyways. She knew that if she even attempted to grab her sword again, it would be over, so instead she did something different. She raised her left hand to the sky, Using her magic to summon an enchant onto herself. Her restrained form had recovered enough energy for her to use her magic, and she was going to go all out. Her body began to transform into her triple element dragon slayer form, a form that nobody from Fairy Tail had thought she could do again. But they also knew that in that form she was not capable of beating acnologia.
"What are you thinking Mikoto? Do you have some kind of plan?" Erza says under her breath.
Mikoto flies forward in her dragon slayer form, launching triple element attack after triple element attack, but just as she expected, acnologia simply absorbed them. But also with her plan, this was making Acnologia even more confident then before. He flew after her, now giving chase to Mikoto, exactly as she wanted him too.
Mikoto made him chase her for a bit, before seemingly attempting the same strategy as before. She flew straight up, intending to drag him out of the atmosphere. The overconfident acnologia gave chase.
"She seriously cant expect that trick to work! It didnt work the first time so why would it work now?" Laxus states in anger.
Makarov turns to his grandson and responds, "Dont judge her too quickly. She is the only hope we have, so lets have faith in her."
Mikoto flys upward as fast as she could, quickly reaching the outskirts of the atmosphere. Something small and unnoticeable to acnologia fell out of her pocket. Acnologia extended his neck, opening his mouth intending to eat her whole.
Suddenly Mikoto vanished from in front of him. She reappeared in her normal level 5 form, right hand extended as the small coin she had let fall from her pockets fall towards her hand. She then fires a full power railgun, point blank right at Acnologia's now exposed throat. The Railgun hits its mark, and the explosion of the attack could be seen by everyone. The blast sent mikoto flying backwards, and as she fell she could only hope the attack did enough damage to make acnologia retreat.
The smoke cleared, only to completely dash all of Mikotos hopes as she fell. Acnologia was injured, as there was a large mark on his neck where the railgun hit, but it didnt go through. Evidently the coin didnt have enough mass to do any real harm. Acnologia flew downwards, chasing the falling Mikoto, intending on finishing her off.
I Cant win, not as i am now. I dont have enough power to defeat him without level 6…. Is this the end? No! I cant let it end like this! I need to beat him, some way, somehow i have to win. I still havent used second orgin, but that will still not be enough to let me use level 6 for enough time. But it will allow me to use magic for a while, wait thats it!
"Second Origin!" Mikoto yells out as she activated the power that Ultear gave her. Her body was flooded with magic power, along with some of her esper ability returning to her. She quickly summoned in her 2 wyverns, with Midnight flying in to grab hold of her. Acnologia went to give chase, but was hit by a fire breath by Drogon. Mikoto had Midnight hover in the air, and then Mikoto summoned in every flying summon she could think of. Masses upon masses of pteranodons flew into the battle, as well as a couple of different kinds of flyers and even the quetzal. They all rushed Acnologia, pecking away at him. Acnologia responded by throwing his wings out, knocking them all away, then once again charging at Mikoto and Midnight. They ran, making him give chase. The whole time, Drogon and the other flyers attacked him again and again. As the chase kept up though, Acnologia slowly closed the distance. But just as he thought he was about to get them, the quetzal and all of the pteranodons flew right into one of his wings. While the force of the collision forced them to despawn, the attack did its purpose of knocking Acnologia out of the sky. But while falling he let out a breath attack, which hit midnight from underneath. Midnight took all the damage while Mikoto was thrown clear, but Midnight was now desummoned. Acnologia was quick to react, as when he landed he fired another breath attack at where Mikoto fell. Mikoto got up to see the blast too close to dodge.
"Mikoto!" Touma yells out in fear for his girlfriend.
Suddenly, a massive shape, just as large as acnologia himself was standing over Mikoto and had tanked the blast. Mikotos guardian summon had arrived to save her life, and now it was going to fight the black dragon of the apocalypse for her. The Giga let out a massive roar then charged forward. It dodged under an attack from Acnologia arms, and bite down on one of his wings. It then stepped back and swung its massive tail, surprisingly knocking acnologia down. As the giga fought with Acnologia, Mikoto used her ability to transport herself into the air, about 50 meters in front of Touma and the other guilds. She then began to gather massive amounts of magical energy to her, after desummoning any remaining summons except for the Giga.
The Giga and Acnologia seemed to be evenly match, with each landing blows against each other. It could only be assumed that the reason why acnologia could not just absorb the Giga was because it was a creature, and not just pure magic. Suddenly Acnologia connects a massive breath attack against the Giga, knocking it down. But the Giga stood right back up, now in full rage mode. Its attacks become relentless, dealing blow after blow with its tail, claws and mouth to acnologia. But acnologia simply weathers the storm, and then finally, when the rage ended, seemed prepared to finish off the Giga with a breath attack. Just as he fired the attack, the Giga was desummed. Acnologia, now locked into the breath attack, finally notices what Mikoto was doing.
Her hands were locked together in a very particular pose, and her body was glowing with white light.
"Shes going to use Fairy Law!" Makarov yells out in surprise.
"Can she even do that?" Juvia asks in shock.
"I hope for our sake, that she can," Jura responds.
This is it. If this attack doesnt work its all over. I dont think he can absorb this spell, but whether it will have enough power to do him in, im not certain. I wont have enough energy to keep fighting if this doesnt work….
Mikoto pushes these doubts away as she speaks, "For all of my friends that you threaten today, for all the people you killed in the past, for all the misery and suffering you caused others, You are going to pay for it all. I invoke Fairy Law!"
Mikoto slams her hands together, activating the spell. All the magic blasts down on acnologia in the form of the brightest of light. The light prevents anything from being seen, but the sounds could be heard. The sound of the magic crashing down on acnologia, and his screams of pain, yes his screams of pain, could be heard. The spell ends, and Mikoto who had been hovering in the air, falls to the ground, her magic and her ability completely exhausted. She manages to pull herself to her knees to look over what happened, when suddenly acnologia roars, throwing his wings out to dissipate the smoke that was around him. While he did now have some wounds, the spell did not do as much as Mikoto was hoping. Fairy Law, one of the strongest spells available to a fairy tail wizard, was unable to beat the black dragon of the apocalypse.
Everyone behind Mikoto collapse in despair, realizing that their doom was now finalized. Their last hope could no longer put up a fight… all was lost.
Suddenly, completely out of character, Acnologia began to speak.
"What is your name, young girl?" Acnologia says, looking at Mikoto.
"My name is Mikoto Misaka, The Railgun of Fairy Tail and its guardian…" Mikoto responds, struggling to her feet.
"Normally I do not respect my opponent, most dont deserve it, but you proved otherwise today. Your ingenuity during our fight, your determination that kept you fighting, and the power you hold, is worth showing respect to," Acnologia states.
"Thanks but that doesnt make me feel better about any of this," Mikoto responds.
"To give you my utmost respect, i will end this battle between us, in one attack. You shall die a death worth having some pride over," Acnologia finishes.
With this he charges up a breath attack. Mikoto takes a deep breath, now accepting of her faith, she looks down and closes her eyes, ready for it to happen. The rest of the mages behind her also go quiet, ready for the end to come.
Acnologia fires, and the attack comes rushing forwards. But then the sound of Imagine breaker was heard, and the breath attack was completely neutralized. Mikoto looks up to see Touma standing in front of her, his right hand extended into the path of the attack.
"How!?" Acnologia exclaims in shock and anger.
"Touma what are you doing!?" Mikoto yells.
Touma turns to her, kissing her on the forehead and then says, "Im saving the one I love."
Touma turns back to face Acnologia, activating his shield into his left hand. Acnologia is now infuriated, and without saying another word, flys forward to charge down Mikoto and Touma.
This is bad! Touma can only neutralize Acnologias magic attacks. While the shield helps him absorbs kinetic attacks, there is only so much he can take. This is the worst case situation for him. Someone! Please help us!
Acnologia had covered half the distance when Mikotos prayer was answered. Two objects slammed into acnologia's side, exploding and sending him into the buildings on his right. A second later, a loud boom that deafened out even the explosions was heard, causing everyone to cover their ears. Acnologia gets back to his feet, and looks around for the source of what attacked him. Another pair of objects hit him from behind, followed by another loud boom. Mikoto quickly realizes that this loud boom was a sonic boom, created by an object flying through the air at supersonic speeds. She scans the skys, then finally finds what she was looking for. An object was circling the city, and then it turned in for another attack. The object launches a pair of missiles, which once again collide against Acnologia. But this attack was different, as the object then changed slightly, and its speed decreased drastically. It changed direction almost instantly, and the sound of a gatling gun could be heard as bullets rained into acnologia, who had fallen to the ground from the last missile strike. The object then took off flying, but it stayed at the slower speeds. Suddenly Mikoto realized what that object was, and what it meant.
She quickly used the last of her magic to summon in ear pieces for everyone around, setting them to a frequency. Suddenly a voice was heard over the new comm link.
"Did you miss me Mikoto?" the voice stated.
The rest of the mages were confused by what was going on, but Mikotos voice over the comms, filled with happiness and hope, eased their tension as she responded.
"Raiden! On my god its so good to see you here!" Mikoto responded.
"Wait does she mean the Raiden that she talked about before?" Erza states in shock, looking at her fellow fairy tail members.
"Looks like you got yourself into a sticky situation Mikoto." Raiden responds after laughing slightly.
Mikoto doesnt immediately respond, so he continues, "Before you ask, yes i came here because you all failed, so i am stopping that from happening. This will be our last shot so we need to give it all we have."
"But i cant use any more magic and my ability has run out…." Mikoto responds despair in her voice.
"Dont give up hope just yet Mikoto. I believe your level 6 can still beat acnologia." Raiden responds.
"But im too low on power to use it," Mikoto responds.
"Then take the time to charge up. Mikoto this is not the time to hold back, you must do whatever it takes to win this fight, no matter the cost. I can delay acnologia and give you enough time. Has a plan of mine ever failed?" Raiden asks.
"I trust you Mentor," Mikoto responds, her eyes hardening as she prepares herself.
"Good," Raiden responds, then he turns his attention to the mages.
"You can all hear me correct?" He asks. When they respond he continues, "I will face Acnologia alone. I know that i may not be able to beat him, but i know that Mikoto can if she achieves Level 6 once more. I need you all to help her out with that in any way. If I fall too soon, you need to be prepared to give her as much time as possible, do you understand? If we make it out of this I will explain everything," Raiden says.
"We understand, you can count on us!" The voice was wendy's as she responded. The rest of the mages take up the call as well.
Raiden smilies and then flies toward Acnologia once more in his storm fighter.
Touma deactivates his shield and helped Mikoto make her way back to the guilds. Once there Wendy and Shelia use their magic to restore as much of her health and power as they could. Though their magic restored her body, and her magic, it didnt do much to help out her ability.
"Everyone stand back," Mikoto says, standing up. Once they had all backed off, she raised her hands into the sky. A lightning storm formed up above her, and then suddenly multiple lightning strikes began to strike into her open hands. She was going to use the storm to charge up her ability.
The storm fighter reengaged acnologia, firing once again with the gatling guns. Acnologia took to the air to give chase, but his damaged wing from his fight against the Giga summon prevented him from being able to catch the jet fighter. Raiden activated the jets vertical take off mode, spinning the plane around and then setting the thrusters to propel him backward. He then fired the guns at Acnologia while using the computers in the plane to dodge around the buildings. Suddenly Acnologia fires a breath attack, and Raiden quickly switches the plane back into speed move, rocketing out of the line of fire. Another set of missiles hit acnologia once again, but his rage made him continue to press forward.
This game of Raiden keeping himself and his storm fighter just outside of acnologias attacks, while landing attacks of his own kept up for a couple of minutes, until Acnologia saw what was going on with Mikoto and the guilds. Realizing that they were trying to power her up, he ignores Raidens attempts at keeping his attention and charges up a breath attack. He then fires it at Mikoto, intending on finishing her off.
Raiden used the speed of the storm fighter to get between the attack and its target. He quickly activated the hover mode and turned the front of the plane towards the attack. The front of the plane then opened up, and a bright blue light appeared from inside of it. A massive blue wave of energy blasted out of the nose of the plane as Raiden funneled his own ability through the nose of the plane. Raidens ability meet Acnologias attack head on, and the two attacks dissipated.
Acnologia lands on the ground, his anger slowly growing. His attack was stopped by some kind of vehicle that he was unfamiliar with, and this was infuriating.
But the storm fighter had not gotten out of that engagement unscathed. The systems were compromised by the overload of Raidens ability, and it was forced to land in front of the guilds and Mikoto.
Raiden opens up the cockpit, removes a couple of things from the inside and then steps onto the ground.
This was the first time anyone from this world had seen him, and the view was shocking. His pure white hair, his oddly mechanical looking body, and the unique sheath he was attaching to his side was all so different from what they were expecting.
"What do you intend to do Raiden?" Touma asks, walking towards him.
"Im going to fight acnologia," Raiden responds simply.
"What? Do you honestly expect to hold your own in a fist fight against a dragon?" Orga suddenly says, stepping forward in shock.
"Actually, yes i do. Im not human, im a cyborg, one with immense physical abilities. Handling a dragon should be simple enough," Raiden responds shortly. He turns to look at Orga and then says, "Your a lightning mage correct? If so you should be helping Mikoto."
Raiden then turns his attention to acnologia and then yelled out, "Acnologia! I am Raiden, Mikotos mentor in the ways of fighting. I am your opponent now. Good luck with that by the way. I have not lost a fight in a couple of years, and I dont plan on you breaking that streak." The speakers in the storm fighter turn on and begin to play undefeated by skillet.
With that Raiden runs forward at amazing speed. He covers the distance between himself and acnologia in only a couple of seconds, and dodges a strike from acnologias right fist, jumps upwards and lands a blow against acnologias chest that pushes him back slightly. Acnologia then attacks with a breath attack, but Raiden dissipates it with his own ability. Using the smoke as cover he lands another couple of blows against acnologias side. Suddenly Acnologias tail collided with him, and sent him into a building. But Raiden had grabbed hold of the tail, and showing off his immense strength, he ran down the side of the building, and then threw acnologia. The guilds were shocked that a man of his stature had enough strength to literally throw a dragon. While acnologia struggle back to his feet, Raiden positioned himself, his right hand held out in front of his sheath. Acnologia leaped forward, but Raiden was faster still. He moved forward just enough to dodge the attack, but now he had a clear view of Acnologias exposed chest. He pulled the trigger on his sheath, and the sword came rocketing out. He caught it in his right hand and in one simplistic motion, cut a gash along acnologias chest with Murasama. He then quickly moved away, keeping murasama drawn. Acnologia bellowed in rage and pain, and then leaped after Raiden again. Now with Murasama drawn, Raiden continued this little dance.
Meanwhile Mikoto was still charging up. She was watching the fight between Raiden and Acnologia. While she knew that because of Raidens murasama, his super strength and speed, and his almost limitless endurance, he had a shoot of winning, she was also worried. While Raidens slices with Murasama was doing damage, she noticed that none could be fatal. She also felt that despite his rage, acnologia was holding back. She knew she still had a while left to charge up if she was going to reach the level she needed to fight acnologia, and she wasnt going to risk Raiden holding out for that long.
"Laxus! Orga! I need your help!" Mikoto yells out, getting the two lightning mages attention.
"What do you need us to do?" Laxus asks.
"I need the both of you to use your strongest lightning attack on me at the same time. I need to jump charge myself and thats the only way possible," Mikoto explained.
"But their attacks will be dragon slayer magic and god slayer magic, would that really be okay?" Makarov asks, walking forward.
"It will be fine. I can absorb any electrical energy and convert it into my esper ability, as i showed during my fights in the grand magic games. I will also call all the remaining energy from the storm above into me at the same time. That should be enough to get me to level 6 again." Mikoto explains. While the others seemed doubtful, the decided to go along with it.
Laxus and Orga took their positions and charged up their attacks. Laxus decided to use his roar attack while Orga used his Lightning gods charged particle cannon. The two used their attacks at exactly the same time as a massive lightning bolt from the sky is sent down towards Mikoto. All three hit her at once, and a huge blast of smoke and electricity is sent outwards. The sound from this is enough to get Raidens and Acnologias attention, though Raiden uses this moment to retreat back to the guilds.
"Did it work?" Wendy asks, worry in her eyes as the smoke slowly clears.
Sure enough, once the smoke was cleared, Mikoto was seen standing, though her face was tilted downwards, making it impossible to read her expression. She slowly started to walk forward, as a mixture of the three different kinds of lightning flowed around her. Once she was standing in front of everyone else, she goes into action.
(btw i suggest playing the song from vegetas new transformation in dragon ball super here. I just believe it to be a great tune to someone powering up)
She begins to collect the power, transforming it all into her classic blue electricity. Her body stiffens as the massive amount of power builds up. Her hair once again begins to flash in the electrical blue color, and her eyes were already filled with lightning and completely dark otherwise. Her body keeps gaining power as the transformation continues to progress. But it was slower than normal, as if she was struggling to achieve the form. Just when everyone thought she may not be able to achieve it, her hair finally stays blue, and a wave of electricity discharges from her body, signaling that she is now at level 6.
Now in her level 6 form, mikoto once again begins to walk towards Acnologia.
"What percent of her power is she at Raiden?" Touma asks.
"It appears to be her normal 20 percent, but the electricity around her…, its unstable. Its like the day she first achieved of this form," Raiden explains looking at his instruments.
"So does that mean she is losing control?" Touma asks, worry in his voice.
"Level 6 is fueled by the emotions of the esper. The stronger the emotion, the stronger the power is, but this is showcased by its instability. Mikotos riding a wave of emotion right now, which means there is no telling what will happen now. Can she regain her grip on her emotions, or will she let them control her?" Raiden states, worry entering his voice as well.
The speakers on the storm fighter start to play Electroheart by Amaranthe, and Mikoto lets it play for a second before acting on a certain beat. She was suddenly right infront of Acnologias chest, an a flurry of punches collided against it, knocking Acnologia backwards. He quickly recovered and fired a breath attack, but the aura of electrical energy around Mikoto blocks it. Suddenly she is behind him, and she fires a blast of electrical energy. Acnologia tanks the shot, swiping her with her tail, which surprisingly connects. Mikoto is sent flying through a couple of buildings, but a discharge of energy and suddenly she is in front of him once again, landing another series of quick punches.
"Mikotos fighting differently," Raiden comments watching the fight.
Erza looks more closely at this, and says, "She isnt avoiding the retaliation strikes!"
Raiden looks at his instruments once again, finally noticing something.
"Her power, it keeps getting stronger with each hit. She is using the strikes from acnologia to raise her own power, matching a growth in power against his own. In her level 6 form she knows she can take the punishment, so she is using each time she gets hit to tell when acnologia is getting more and more serious. Shes trying to find his upper limit and match it with her own power! She is currently at 30% and rising!" Raiden states, letting everyone know what was going on. The battle they were watching has since turned into a blur of motion, as each fighter was increasing their own power. With each blow that Mikoto landed against acnologia, the stronger he got, but when he then landed a blow against her, Mikoto reacted by getting stronger as well.
This continued until Mikoto was eventually forced to 50% of her maximum. The aura around her took on a different quality, as lightning danced across the sky. This presented a certain view of her, one the king of fiore took notice of.
"She looks like a goddess…" He whispered under his breath. He then turned and whispered something to one of his guards, who nodded and ran off into the castle.
Meanwhile the battle to decide everyone's fates continued. Mikoto was now moving so quickly, that it was hard for anyone to keep track of her movements, only givin away by the burst of electrical energy when she reappeared. Suddenly she was underneath Acnologias jaw, and she delivered an uppercut so powerful, it lifted his dragon body into the sky. As He was flying upwards she appeared above him, firing a blast of electrical energy downwards and slamming him into the ground. She backs off for a bit, allowing acnologia to get back to his feet.
The massive dragon actually leaned down and spit out some blood, looking up at his opponent.
"You are the first one in a long time to ever do this much damage to me. Im impressed, but it ends here," Acnologia states. A massive aura of magic energy appears around him as he finally goes full power. This jump in power made him easily stronger than Mikoto was at her current percentage, and Raidens sensors picked this up.
"Mikoto, can you still hear me?" Raiden asks over the comms.
"Yes I can," Mikoto responds quickly, not taking her eyes off of Acnologia.
"He is far stronger than your 50% form now. I believe you are still faster, but your going to need to go higher in power to beat him, also I dont think you can beat him with your power alone," Raiden begins to say.
"What are you saying?" Mikoto asks, her eyes showing that she was thinking.
"Metal from our world can hurt him, we have proven that. If you can get a massive enough metal from our earth with enough power behind it, it might be enough to kill him, or at least knock him out," Raiden states his plan.
"So your talking about a Railgun?" Mikoto states, her mouth forming into a smile. But before Raiden could respond, Acnologia attacked. Using her moment of distraction, he charged her, landing a blow against her, sending her flying. Suddenly He was behind her, and attempted to bite her. She managed to barely dodge that attack, but his tail collided against her once more, sending her hard into the ground and then through a couple of buildings. The last building she crashed into then collapsed onto her, burying her under it. Acnologia lands, moving his injured wing around as if to stretch it. The wound was healing as he fought, as part of his magic was being spent on healing it, soon enough he would be able to fly like normal again.
"This is the end for you Mikoto," Acnologia states, and charges up a full power breath attack, intending on finishing her off. He fires his breath attack, but Mikoto once again responds in kind.
The building is blasted away by a burst of electrical energy, and a blast of that energy meets acnologia's breath attack. The two attacks battled each other for a moment, and then acnologias attack started to push Mikotos back. Just when it seemed like Mikoto was about to be defeated, her attack exploded forward with massive force, pushing through acnologias attack and knocking him to the ground.
The smoke cleared to reveal Mikoto having taken her power another step forward. Raidens sensors were now reading that she had jumped to 65% of her maximum, a level she has never gone before. The aura of energy around her was so large, that the feeling of it where by the castle was still stronger than if she was at 40% right next to them.
The song that was playing switched once again, this time to You're Going Down by Sick Puppies.
The moment acnologia got back to his feet, Mikoto attacked. Acnologia received a flurry of punches, but from everyones view, Mikoto wasnt moving at all. Then suddenly Mikoto was gone, and Acnologia looked like he was being knocked around by a ghost. Yet still he managed to attack Mikoto, Landing a couple of his blows against her, while she landed her own. Raiden could tell that they were now equal in terms of raw power, but Mikoto was far faster, but she was trying to beat him in a fight of power.
Thats when Raiden felt something strange happening. He looked up, to see a massive ball of metal forming in the sky. He realized that Mikoto was using her power to create a ball of Titanium, a metal found on their earth, but not on this one. The ball began to take shape, turning into a bullet like form, and getting bigger and bigger.
Suddenly Acnologia was knocked down directly underneath the "Bullet" of Titanium. Immediately Mikoto appeared next to the Titanium, and she once again powered up. She powered up all the way to 85% of her maximum, causing a giant circle beam of energy to descend to the ground, completely surrounding Acnologia. The pressure coming off of her was enough to flatten buildings directly around them, and make the people around the Castle feeling heavier than before.
"Mikotos at 85% of her maximum!" Raiden yells out!
"Has she ever gone this far before!?" Wendy asks, fear etched into her voice as she struggled to stay on her feet.
"No, never before, i wouldnt let her. There is no telling if her body will be able to recover from using this much power!" Raiden responds. Guild members were about to respond when Mikotos voice could be heard over the booming thunder, as if her voice was coming from the thunder itself.
"This is the end Acnologia. You will not be able to dodge this attack, you will not be able to absorb it. It will end you, and stop all the future suffering you will cause. I am sorry that it had to come to this, but you forced my hand. This was an amazing fight, one I hope I never have to have again. Goodbye, Black Dragon of the Apocalypse!" Mikoto says. With this, she slams her right fist into the back of the Titanium "bullet" This causes a massive Railgun, one that travels at such a speed it instantly hits it target, and an massive explosion is seen where acnologia once stood. The Railgun left a massive crater in the ground, with a wall of smoke flying outwards from it, flattening everything within a mile of the landing point. This was far enough way to avoid damage to the majority of the city however. Knowing that this marked the end of the battle, the guilds rushed forward, finally getting to the edge of the crater.
Mikoto was now hovering above the ground, still at her 85%. But there, on the ground, somehow still alive was acnologia. Lucy was about to cry in fear when she noticed what had happened to Acnologia.
While he was still in his dragon form, his eyes were filled with fear of Mikoto, and his left arm was completely gone. While his wing was still there, it seemed like the Railgun collided with that part of his body, completely destroying his left arm.
Mikoto dropped herself back to 50%, and began to speak, "Acnologia, at the last second i decided to spare your life. Not because you deserve it, but because I wanted to. That means you now own me your life, or would you prefer I kill you now?" At this Mikoto raised her hand, and iron sand began to form up near Acnologias wounded side. The impression was that if he didnt agree with whatever she was about to say, she would send the iron sand into his body and rip him apart from the inside.
"What do you want from me?" Acnologia manages to say through the pain of his wound.
"From now on, any of the guilds here, and the people of fiore are under my protection. If you attack them in any way, or even show your face around the, I will know, and i will finish what was started today. If someone was to attack you first, of course you can defend yourself, but you must never cause harm to the ones i am protecting here, unless it is to protect your own life, and you must not kill them. Is this understood?" Mikoto states her demands.
Acnologias eyes burn with hatred and fear, but he responds, "I agree." With that He took off, quickly flying away. While the mages behind her celebrated, Mikoto waited, making sure he was long gone before she decided to relax.
She lands on the ground, quickly exiting her level 6 form. She turns to face her friends,
Mikoto closes her eyes and throws her magic energy at Acnologia, giving him enough power so that he could stand up once more before finally saying, "Then leave here at once. Hopefully this will be the last time we will ever see each other again,"
With that Acnologia took off, quickly flying away. While the mages behind her celebrated, Mikoto waited, making sure he was long gone before she decided to relax.
She lands on the ground, quickly exiting her level 6 form. She turns to face her friends, when suddenly the effects of her fight hit her hard. Her legs give out, and she falls to her knees before then falling completely to the ground. Touma and the fairy tail members come rushing over, with Touma lifting her off the ground.
"Mikoto! Are you okay?" He asks.
"Im fine…. Just completely exhausted…." Mikoto states, and then falls asleep. Some of the guild begins to panic, after all Mikoto was covered in wounds and her clothes were torn, and then for her to fall asleep could be a bad sign but then Raiden came over.
He looked Mikoto and then said to everyone, "Dont worry about Mikoto, she will be fine in a couple of days. Her ability is in run away right now, which Toumas imagine breaker is preventing from showing. So her body is reacting by passing out," Raiden explained.
"How long will she be in that condition for?" Makarov asks.
"Hard to tell. She took her power further then she ever has, so the effects should be amplified. She could be out for a couple of days," Raiden explains.
"So what do we do now, the city is destroyed, we are all exhausted, and we got nowhere to stay," Sting says, walking over.
"Thats where you are wrong," A voice says, walking over.
Everyone turns to see the king of Fiore standing there with his guards. Once he has their attentions he continues, "I have decided to allow everyone here to sleep in the castle for the time being." This causes widespread shock, especially by his guards, but he raises his hand to silence them before adding, "Today everyone here gave everything they had to protect this city. You saved us all today." He then points to Mikoto and says, "And one of you protected us from an unbeatable force. I cant sit here and not give you all the one thing you need right now, which is a place to sleep and recover at. The castle will have more than enough rooms for all of you, and enough beds."
Makarov steps forward and bows to the king and says, "Thanks so much your highness, we will gladly accept your offer."
The king shakes his head and replies, "No need for the gratitude. Yours and the other guilds came through for the kingdom when we needed it, and so the gratitude is all ours."
The guilds begin making their way back to the castle. Fairy Tail formed up around Touma, who was carrying Mikoto. Wendy was walking behind him, carrying Mikotos sword, which she had picked up earlier. Eventually they all reach where Raidens Storm fighter was, which he then moves to get into.
"Are you leaving so soon Raiden?" Gray asks, confused because of Raidens earlier promise to explain everything.
"No i am not, Im going to move the plane into the castle grounds so i can spend some time working on it. All of you should get some sleep, when your all recovered I will explain everything. Touma is going to have to stay with Mikoto for at least tonight, if he stops touching her with his right hand, her ability will strike out," Raiden explains quickly.
He gets into the storm fighter, setting his sword and sheath into their spots and then starts to turn on the systems. They had rebooted after the earlier failures, so when he went to start the engine, it roared to life. The sound of the jet turbines roared in the early morning as the jet took to the sky in a vertical launch. It made its way over to the castle grounds, landing inside, and Raiden went to work repairing the damaged systems. The guilds made it back to the castle shortly after. The guilds got enough rooms for everyone with people barely caring where they slept as they were so exhausted. Even though it was early morning, all of the mages quickly fell asleep.
Raiden was left along as the only one awake as he worked silently on his fighter jet.
Touma, Mikoto. You two did a great job in this world. Not only did you save Ultears life today, you saved everyones as well. Mikoto, you keep on amazing me, today you defeated Acnologia, even though you needed some help. I cant believe you went as far as you did to win that fight, it only makes me wonder how much further you can go. Hopefully your actions today was enough to change this world's destiny, and even more so for the better.
(war paint)
So hold me close and kiss my skin
Don't be afraid, let me in
I'll hold you close and take your hand
To my heart, here I am, yeah (Oh)
Oh
'Cause we could be beautiful without our war paint
Our war paint
And we could have it all once we let our walls break
Our walls break
Why in the hell do we fight on the front line?
When we both know that we're here on the same side
We could be beautiful without the mistake ('Cause we could be beautiful)
Of our war paint
(undefeated)
I'm undefeated
Hands on my neck, foot on my back
Closing in from every side
Bleeding me dry, I'm fading fast
Left for dead but I will rise up on my own
I could make it alone
I got all that I need to survive (All that I need to survive)
Through the sweat and the blood,
I know what I'm made of
It's the hunger that keeps me alive (Keeps me alive)
This time (I'm coming like a hurricane)
This time
I came to fight for the love of the game, unstoppable
That's why I, I'm undefeated
Off the leash, out of the cage, an animal
That's why I, I'm undefeated
I, I, I know I can beat it
Won't give up 'cause I believe it
Fight for the love of the game, unstoppable
That's why I, I'm undefeated
I'm undefeated
(I'm, I'm) I'm undefeated
Here at the edge, losing my ground
Stare into the great divide
Pushing me over, pulling me down
Almost dead, but I will rise up on my own
No, I'm never alone
And it's all that I need to survive (All that I need to survive)
Through the sweat and the blood
If I fall, I'll get up
It's the hunger that keeps me alive (Keeps me alive)
This time (I'm coming like a hurricane)
This time
I came to fight for the love of the game, unstoppable
That's why I, I'm undefeated
Off the leash, out of the cage, an animal
That's why I, I'm undefeated
I, I, I know I can beat it
Won't give up 'cause I believe it
Fight for the love of the game, unstoppable
That's why I, I'm undefeated
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
All the strength that I have, all the life that's left in me
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
I will give every breath to be everything I can be
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
I'm undefeated
(I'm, I'm) I'm undefeated
I came to fight for the love of the game, unstoppable
That's why I, I'm undefeated
Off the leash, out of the cage, an animal
That's why I, I'm undefeated
I, I, I know I can beat it
Won't give up 'cause I believe it
Fight for the love of the game, unstoppable
That's why I, I'm undefeated (I'm undefeated)
That's why I, I'm undefeated

Restart electroheart
Déjà-vu I fall apart
Five minutes falling back
With my electroheart
I feel divine
It's like I travel faster
As I reboot
The darkness has no empathy
It's hard to see
I feel the world is shattered
In tears they cry
Am I about to be erased?
About to be erased
Soulless torn apart
Born to die right from the start
Cyanide runs in my electroheart
Restart Electroheart
Déjà-vu I fall apart
Five minutes falling back renewed
Recharge electroheart
Never left it from the start
Timer set I left the past for you
And as silence surrounds me
With echoes of cries
From my imminent life
With my electroheart
I plant the seed
To make them struggle hard
I reap their tears
Bring harvest from their misery
Repent, repeat
The force of life is scattered
Indeed I try to cleanse it
To infinity
About to be erased
Feel your soul depart
Now your flesh is my own art
Cyanide runs in my electroheart
Restart electroheart

Five minutes falling back renewed

Never left it from the start
Timer set I left the past for you
And as silence surrounds me
With echoes of cries

It's out of context
I better come back
With my my complexity
Fractals
What I can't bring back
I came in contact
With my depravity

(you're going down)
Define your meanin' of fun
To me it's what we do when we're bored
I feel the heat comin' off of the blacktop
And it makes me want it more
Because I'm hyped up, outta control
If it's a fight I'm ready to go
I wouldn't put my money on the other guy
If you know what I already know
It's been a long time comin'
And the table's turned around
'Cause one of us is goin'
One of us is goin' down
I'm not runnin'
It's a little different now
'Cause one of us is goin'
One of us is goin' down
Define your meanin' of fun
To me it's when we're gettin' done
I feel the heat comin' off of the blacktop
So get ready for another one
Let's take a trip down memory lane
The words circulate in my brain
You can treat this like another all I'm sayin'
But don't cry like a bitch when you feel the pain
It's been a long time comin'
And the table's turned around
Cause one of us is goin'
One of us is goin' down
I'm not runnin'
It's a little different now
'Cause one of us is goin'
One of us is goin' down
This is hardly worth fightin' for
But it's the little petty shit that I can't ignore
When my fist hits your face
And your face hits the floor
It'll be a long time comin'
But you got the message now
'Cause I was never goin'
Yeah, you're the one that's goin' down
One of us is goin' down
It's been a long time comin'
And the table's turned around
Cause one of us is goin'
One of us is goin' down
I'm not runnin'
It's a little different now
'Cause one of us is goin'
One of us is goin' down
One of us is goin' down
