SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 29 out, this is Chapter 30 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 OCs.
Chapter 30: Your Words
"Stop it?" Happy echoed. "But we don't know how to stop it."
"Like, breaking it?" Natsu suggested.
"Figures you'd think like that." Lucy sighed.
"How do you plan on breaking something this huge?" Gray asked.
"It would be faster to ask Brain." Jura reasoned.
"Wendy, wait!" Clara took off after the healer.
"Everyone, can you hear me?" Hot-Eye's voiced echoed. "It is me, Hot-Eye. Unfortunately, I'm injured. I was no match for Midnight as I feared. Everyone, please work together to defeat Midnight. If you defeat him, Nirvana's supply of magic will be cut off, and the city should come to a halt."
"So, it moves using Body Link Magic." Gray noted.
"He is directly below the King's Summit." Hot-Eye added. "Be careful. He is very, very powerful. Of the six prayers, only one is left. I believe in everyone. Please…" Brain smirked, having imitated Hot-Eye's voice. "You won't get away with this." the Guild Master grinned.
"Show yourself, you drowsy bastard!" Natsu demanded, tugging at the doors.
"It's a trap!" Jura warned.
"What happened?" Ulyo winced after the dust settled. "We were caught up in that giant explosion and..."
"We're buried?" Gray looked at the enclosed shell they were in.
"Wait, this is…" Lucy corrected.
"Jura…" Ulyo breathed, the teen having broken out.
"He protected us?" Reiana was shocked.
"Stay well, young ones…" Jura turned. "I am glad you are safe."
"Damn it all!" Litana roared.
"He's hurt bad." Ulyo went into medic mode.
"What a joke." A voice droned. "Brain used up all of his power and could only get rid of one of you."
"Up there!" Happy pointed.
"Pitiful…" the voice groaned. "He's a disgrace to the Six Generals. Well, as long as Midnight is here, we haven't been defeated." Brain's staff landed on the ground. "Perhaps I will clean up the rest of you fools. I am the seventh member of the Oracion Seis. I have awakened from my slumber to defeat…"
"Hidden Shadow Snake Hand!" Ulyo let her serpentine projections fly towards the flying rod, the snakes pinning the talking staff to the ground.
"You violent brat…" the staff shook itself free and floated up. "Soon, I'll be able to see the Guild of those fools. I must clean up the trash without delay."
"In other words, Caitshelter." Lucy gasped.
"Exactly." The rod droned. "We will begin our destruction by crushing them."
SailorStar9: Now that's done, read and review.
