SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 3 out, this is Chapter 4 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?
Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot bunny and my OC.
Chapter 4: Flame Wings
"No kidding." Gray noted, after the four met up on the Guild bridge. "The Magical Giant's writing has really slowed down."
"So it seems." Mira agreed.
"Fire, water, wind, and earth." Ulyo listed. "The Magical Giant's movements depend on the four elements."
"And the source of its magical power are the Element 4." Elfman added.
"Totomaru of the Conflagration, who was guarding Jupiter." Mira stated. "Sol of the Land, who Elfman defeated. And Juvia of the Ocean, who Gray defeated."
"That means there's only one left." Elfman remarked.
"If we stop the fourth one, the giant will stop." Ulyo reasoned.
"Which mean we can stop 'Abyss Break' from happening." Gray finished her thought.
"The final member, Aria of the Heaven." Ulyo voiced. "The strongest mage of the Element 4, and also the fearsome opponent who took away Master's magical power."
"His eyes?" Gray echoed. "What is it about his eyes?"
"Aria usually keeps his eyes closed." Mira explained. "Apparently closing his eyes is the only way he can keep his vast powers under control."
"Anyway, once we find Aria, we have to defeat him before he opens his eyes." Ulyo warned. "Once he opens them, we may lost any chance at victory."
"What's this?" Elfman inquired as the ground shook.
"Did Natsu beat him?" Gray wondered.
"It stopped." Mira beamed. "'Abyss Break' has been averted."
"Seriously?" Elfman echoed.
"That means…" Gray trailed.
"The power of the four elements has been extinguished." Mira confirmed.
"Unbelievable." Jose muttered "The Element 4 were annihilated by those Fairy Tail trash? Attention, mages of Fairy Tail." He announced over the loudspeakers. "Please listen carefully to this voice. We have captured Lucy." He informed, after letting Lucy's scream ring over the speakers. "So, we have accomplished one of our objectives. We now have just one more objective to compete. That would be the annihilation of all of you. Worthless brats."
"Erza!" Mira gaped, the group entering the main hall.
"This place is wrecked as well." Elfman noted.
"When did you get here?" Gray asked.
"You really shouldn't be moving." Ulyo chided, going into full-doctor mode.
"What's this?" Gray wondered.
"This is…" Mira gasped.
"The presence of death." Erza breathed.
"What's this feeling?" Gray mused.
"It even sends chills down a man's spine." Elfman shivered.
"Malice is clouding the air." Mira remarked.
"Quite impressive, my dear Fairy Tail mages." Jose applauded. "Honestly, I never thought it was possible that I'd enjoy it this much. You've destroyed Jupiter, taken down the Element 4, and even brought my Magical Giant to its knees."
"Master Jose." Ulyo hissed.
"Now, I should thank you for the entertainment." Jose grinned.
"Elfman." Gray voiced, the two standing before the girls.
"Thoroughly." Jose finished.
"Ice Make…" Gray summoned his magic.
"Beast Arm!" Elfman went into partial Take-Over.
"Wait, don't be rush!" Erza barked.
"Iron Bull!" Elfman called out.
"Saucer!" Gray finished his attack.
"Idiots." Ulyo muttered when Jose blasted them off. "Men, they're such blockheads; why can't they listen to instructions? Crystal Release: Crystal Encampment Wall!" she went into defense mode, when Jose sent in another magic wave at them, a spiked crystal barrier holding off Jose's assault.
"Ulyo!" Erza called.
"Got it." Ulyo nodded, understanding what Erza had in mind. "Crystal Release: Jade Crystal Blade!" she summoned two crystal tanto-like blades on her arms, the two females charged in. Using the smoke as cover, Erza having droned on her 'Black Wing Armor' at the same time, the two women attacked simultaneously, Jose dodging each of their swipes.
Grabbing them by their arms, the Guild Master tossed the two females off, Erza landing on a jagged slab of rock and Ulyo landed on her feet.
"You," Jose stated. "I'm certain the two of you took a direct hit from Jupiter. How are you still standing?"
"Our comrades strengthen our spirits." Era declared.
"For the sake of the ones we love," Ulyo continued.
"We'd sacrifice our bodies!" the two women chorused.
"Strong, stout-hearted, beautiful…" Jose grinned. "What a pleasure it'll be to destroy you both!"
SailorStar9: Now that's done, read and review.
