Hey, guys! It's been a long time! Sorry for the long delay, but after months of planning and taking care of some other things, here is the first chapter of Holy World Chronicles! Kouga, Natsu, Happy, Ruby and Hinata head to the destination where all the answers lie.
Chapter 1 - Warriors Come Together
Unknown Throne Room
A video-like screen was showing Kouga and his new friends sending Sauk and Tetra from the warehouse into the nearest river.
"How disappointing." An armored male individual said, sitting on a throne as he canceled the video with a swipe on his right clawed hand.
"But they can still bring them back. They were used as a test to see if these children are as strong as they say." The armored individual explained.
Looking at his hand, he gripped it hard as dark energy enveloped.
"Let the war begin." The armored individual said.

Rivers Apartment, Upper West Side, Manhattan, New York City
It was early morning around 6:21AM as the skies became blue and bright with this unknown city busy with daily life.
One building in particular… was a multibillion dollar penthouse that belongs to a wealthy family that is also treated as average for reasons unknown.
In the kitchen/dining room, one boy in particular, dressed in casual clothes, was talking to his mom on the phone.
"So Mom, when will you and Dad be back from your business trip?" The young boy asked, curious to when his parents are coming back.
"We should be back in about two days. Why? Something wrong?" The boy's mother asked.
"N-No! Well… just saw some people last night outside that fell from the sky into the pool… and I went out and saved them. They're inside drying off and should be awake." The boy explained, nervously.
"Oh, you have a big heart, my boy. But make sure your new friends behave in the house, alright?" The mother asked.
"I will. Love you, mom." The boy said.
"Love ya too." The mom said, before hanging up.
The young boy sighed before heading to the main living room, where in actuality Kouga, Natsu, Happy, Ruby and Hinata were relaxing and not doing their own usual antics since they have no clue about their situation.
"I talked over with my mom. So guys are good." The boy said with clear intention.
Kouga and the others sighed in relief.
"That's good." Kouga said.
"And thanks for saving us last night. I thought I was gonna drown." Natsu explained.
"You're the one who flew us in that pool from the start!" Kouga and Ruby angrily thought in unison; red tick marks appeared on their foreheads.
"This world is really weird. Right Happy?" Natsu asked his Exceed partner as he ignored the angry stares from Kouga and Ruby, who is eating a raw fish from his bag.
"Aye, sir." Happy replied.
"What's weird is that talking cat!" The boy thought, dumbfounded.
Hinata was eying the dual Ninjatō swords he has with his mind currently in thought.
"How in the world did I get these swords again?" Hinata thought.
Kouga turned his attention to the boy.
"What's your name by the way?" Kouga asked.
"Oh!" The boy said, needing to introduce himself. "My name is Taichi Rivers. But you can call me Tai."
"Please to meet you. I'm Kouga." Kouga said.
"You can call me Natsu Dragneel!" Natsu excitedly introduced himself.
"I'm Happy!" Happy hollered.
"Ruby Rose here!" Ruby hollered.
"And you can call me Shoyo Hinata!" Hinata chirped.
"Well glad to get introductions in… care to explain what brings you guys to my home last night?" Taichi asked.
The five heroes were now in deep thought after remembering events from last night.
Natsu's ears suddenly picked up, hearing a sound coming in their direction. He got up and headed to the terrace, which was also where the large outside pool was, confusing the others.
"Where are you going?" Ruby asked.
Natsu opened the doors and began to see the sound that came north thanks to his sharp hearing. His sharp eyes were good enough to see a red hawk closing in.
"A hawk?" Hinata asked.
The hawk came flying towards Kouga, which the young Saint managed to use his right arm for the hawk to land on with its' talons. Kouga saw a rolled-up piece of paper attached to the right talon. He slowly took the note before releasing the hawk, opening the note for the kids to look at.
To Kouga, Natsu, Happy, Ruby and Hinata,
Come to 721 Fifth Avenue. We need to talk.
"There's no signature." Taichi said.
"The note said for just the five of us to come." Natsu explained.
"It smells fishy." Ruby said.
"But it might help to find the answers to why we're here." Kouga explained.
"So… you're leaving?" Taichi asked.
"We appreciate your hospitality. But we'll be going. Take care, Tai." Kouga explained, assuring his new friend.
"Okay. Just stay safe and out of trouble. And if you need help, I'm here." Taichi explained.

Fifth Avenue, Manhattan, New York City
After leaving Tai's penthouse, the seven began venturing the streets of the borough known as Manhattan, one of the five boroughs of New York City, one of the biggest cities on Planet Earth.
Kouga, realizing he's on Earth, but in a different dimension, explains what he knows about the city to his friends, each were reacting differently in a positive light as they've walked the streets for almost 11 minutes straight.
After a while, they've finally reached their destination. To Natsu and Happy's dumfounded expressions, Ruby and Hinata's pure excitement, and Kouga's surprised look, the building they're standing in front of it's metal gates on Fifth Avenue is a massive five-story, castle-like townhouse building with a medieval and western mixture design; the exterior to Natsu and Happy's minds reminds them greatly of the Fairy Tail Guild Building down to the last detail despite having nothing that bares Fairy Tail's emblem. It is right now rundown and by extension, under construction.
"It looks like our guild hall!" Natsu hollered.
"Aye!" Happy hollered.
Ruby and Hinata were so excited they ran around to look at the entire building. Kouga was getting excited too.
"Liking the outside so far, man?" A familiar voice that Kouga recognized, seeing none other than both Souma, and his girlfriend Aquila Yuna greeting their friend.
"Souma! Yuna!" Kouga hollered, running to his two best friends.
Yuna was the first to say her hello… with a kiss on the lips that Kouga returned warmly. Natsu, Happy, Ruby and Hinata were surprised.
Yuna released the kiss before hugging her boyfriend. "It's nice to see you here, dummy."
"It's nice to know it won't be just me." Kouga said.
"Ya know it." Souma said, before turning to his attention to the still surprised Natsu, Happy, Ruby and Hinata. "You guys should come in with us. Everyone's waiting."
"Everyone?" Kouga, Natsu, Happy, Ruby and Hinata thought in unison, surprised.

Kouga, Natsu, Happy, Ruby, Hinata, Yuna and Souma went inside the building, as the five main heroes were awestruck by the people they see inside the main lobby, with up to 40 to 50 wooden tables large for up to 8 people each, currently being constructed.
To the people inside were all the friends to Kouga, Natsu, Happy, Ruby and Hinata aside from Yuna and Souma: Kouga's fellow Bronze Saints Dragon Ryuho, Wolf Haruto, Orion Eden, Apus Sachi and Vulpecula Emma, Kouga's fraternal twin sister Aira, Aries Kiki's apprentice Raki, and Selene, who is close to Eden since the war with Pallas, the Four Heavenly Kings and Saturn; Natsu and Happy's fellow guildmates Lucy Heartfilia, Gray Fullbuster, Erza Scarlet, Wendy Marvell and her Exceed partner Carla, Gajeel Redfox and his partner Exceed Pantherlily, Juvia Lockser, Levy McGarden, Romeo Conbolt, Mirajane Strauss and her younger siblings Elfman and Lisanna, Cana Alberona, Laxus Dreyar, and newest member Evan Weston, along with former Oración Seis member and now part of Crime Sorcière, Erik (or by his previous name Cobra); Ruby's teammates Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna and her older sister Yang Xiao Long with the little corgi Zwei, as well as Team JNR's Jaune Arc, Nora Valkyrie and Lie Ren, along with one new addition in one brown wolfdog named Balto, and (to Ruby's shock)… a rebuilt Penny Polendina; and Hinata's fellow Karasuno teammates/peers Tobio Kageyama, Kei Tsukishima, Hitoka Yachi, Tadashi Yamaguchi, Ryunosuke Tanaka, Yu Nishinoya, Chikara Ennoshita, Daichi Sawamura, Koshi Sugawara, Asahi Azumane, and Kiyoko Shimizu.
"Hey, everyone! The guests of honor are here!" Souma shouted, getting everyone's attention.
The entire gang all turned their attention to the last people expecting to arrive, much to their happiness, except for Lucy for an odd reason when seeing Natsu.
"Took you guys long enough." Gray said.
"Hey!" Hinata hollered, which earned a scoff from Kageyama and Tsukishima respectively.
"Penny!" Ruby hollered, almost tearfully seeing her robot friend alive and well.
Penny was ecstatic to see Ruby again and began a running start.
"Sal…" Penny said, which got Ruby now startled.
"U…" Penny continued, now getting the red-cloaked huntress worried.
"…tations!" Penny hollered, charging forward towards Ruby, who didn't have time to dodge as Penny crashed straight into her, causing everyone except for Erik and Kiyoko to become dumbfounded.
Natsu crackled.
"Now that's one gree-" Natsu didn't have a chance to finish as Lucy kicked Natsu hard into a nearby wall, much to everyone's shock. Lucy then walked over the knocked out Natsu with loud steps before kneeling down and shaking him fiercely.
"YOU IDIOT! How could you and Happy leave me for almost TWO DAYS?! " Lucy angrily demanded. Happy was so frightened he quickly hid behind Balto, much to the wolfdog's confusion.
"We knew this was gonna happen." Gray, Erza, Wendy, Carla, Romeo, Juvia, Gajeel, Lily, Levy, Mirajane, Elfman, Lisanna, Cana, Laxus and Evan thought in unison, either impassive or nervously.
"I… left… a… note…" Natsu weakly said, still at Lucy's wrath.
"At least someone left a note." Yang said, side-glaring at Blake and Ruby, both who jolted before nervously laughed.
Jaune, Nora and Ren began to feel nervous as well.
Erza grunted to get everyone's attention, which got Lucy to get off Natsu.
"Now that we're all here - let's get started on knowing about ourselves." Erza explained.
"Yes, ma'am!" The heroes hollered in unison.

About five minutes later, everyone were sitting or standing in the main lobby close to each other to hear.
"Why don't we start first?" Eden asked.
"Sounds good to me!" Sachi hollered excitedly.
Kouga cleared his throat a bit.
"To start, my friends and I are Saints." Kouga explained.
"Saints?" Fairy Tail, Ruby's Group and Karasuno asked in unison.
"Holy warriors who fight alongside the Goddess Athena to protect the peace and love of Earth." Yuna explained.
"We wear special armor called Cloths that are based on the 88 constellations, and a mystical energy source called Cosmo." Haruto explained.
"SO COOL!" Natsu, Happy, Ruby, Hinata, Romeo, Evan, Wendy, Lisanna, Nora, Yamaguchi, Tanaka and Nishinoya shouted in unison, in a very excited manner with starry eyes.
Everyone else, including the Saints, became dumbfounded.
"Anyway… my name is Pegasus Kouga." Kouga said.
"Mine's Aquila Yuna." Yuna said.
"I'm Lionet Souma!" Souma hollered.
"My name is Dragon Ryuho." Ryuho said.
"Wolf Haruto." Haruto said.
"The name's Orion Eden." Eden said.
"Ny name is Apus Sachi!" Sachi hollered.
"M-My name's Vulpecula Emma." Emma said.
"I'm Aria." Aria said.
"You can call me Raki. Apprentice of the greatest Cloth repairer!" Raki hollered, which got Wendy and Romeo excited.
"And my name's Selene." Selene said.
"Who's next?" Yuna asked.
"Why not us." Cana replied, attempting to drink a bottle of alcohol, but Erza glared at the card wizard to not drink too much in front of minors.
"Fair enough." Tsukishima said, not totally interested.
"We come from a world of magic." Erza said.
"Magic?" Asahi asked.
Team RWBY, JNR, Penny, Zwei and Balto were caught completely by surprise. Magic truly existing in another world.
"It's no fantasy. We are from a guild called Fairy Tail that allows us to take jobs for payment aside from fighting against evil. We also have four dragon slayers in our guild." Erza explained.
"I'm Natsu Dragneel, the Fire Dragon Slayer!" Natsu hollered.
"I'm his Exceed buddy, Happy!" Happy hollered.
"My name is Lucy Heartfilia, a Celestial Wizard." Lucy said.
"Gray Fullbuster, Ice Wizard and Demon Slayer." Gray explained.
"And stripper." Natsu teased.
"What?!" Gray exclaimed.
"He means your shirtless." Kageyama bluntly said.
Gray got shocked he doesn't have his jacket on and ran to find it, much to the shock of Yuna, Sachi, Emma, Aria, Raki, Selene and Yachi.
"Put your clothes on pervert!" Weiss snapped.
"How dare you say that to my Gray-sama, ice homewrecker!" Juvia hollered.
The word "homewrecker" stabbed through Weiss' stomach.
"Weiss!" Ruby exclaimed in shock.
"Never seen Weiss sassed before." Yang snickered, watching Weiss truing to get the arrow out.
"That's gotta sting." Raki said, having a sweat drop on her forehead.
"I'm Erza Scarlet, an S-Class Sword and Requip wizard." Erza said.
"My name is Wendy Marvell, a Sky Dragon Slayer." Wendy explained.
"I'm Carla." Carla said.
"Name's Gajeel Redfox, the Iron Dragon Slayer." Gajeel explained.
"Pantherlily." Lily said.
"Juvia Lockser, a Water Wizard… and Gray-sama's beloved!" Juvia swooned, looking at the now dressed up ice user with heart-like eyes.
"I'm Levy McGarden, a Letter Wizard." Levy said.
"The name's Romeo Conbolt, a Fire Wizard." Romeo said.
"I-I'm Evan Weston. A Metal-Make Wizard." Evan explained.
"He's actually a new member of the guild 2 days after the battle with Tartaros." Erza explained.
"Really?! Welcome aboard!" Natsu hollered.
Evan became flustered.
"It's like nothing ever happened when he left." Lucy thought, now feeling a little sad.
"I'm Mirajane Strauss, a Take Over Wizard." Mirajane explained.
"I'm Mira's younger brother, Elfman! I'm also a Take Over Wizard and a real man!" Elfman hollered, flexing his big muscles.
"COOL~!" Hinata, Tanaka and Nishinoya hollered in unison.
"Guess that makes him the exact opposite of you, Asahi." Sugawara said, which made the Karasuno ace sheepishly laugh.
"And I'm Mira-nii's younger sis, Lisanna. Also a Take Over Wizard." Lisanna said.
"My name is Cana Alberona. A Card Wizard." Cana said.
"And I'm an S-Class Lightning Dragon Slaying Wizard. Laxus Dreyar." Laxus said.
"I'm Erik. A Poison Dragon Slayer." Erik explained.
"He was also once an enemy of our guild. But now I heard he and the rest of the Seis are now part of Crime Sorcière." Mirajane explained.
"SAY WHAT?!" Team Natsu exclaimed.
Erik grunted.
"Yep. Gotta love magic." Kouga commented.
"It's our turn next, Ruby." Yang said.
"Okay!" Ruby hollered.
"My friends and I come from a world called Remnant; used to go to a school called Beacon for huntsmen and huntresses alike." Ruby explained.
"We train to slay monsters known as Grimm." Jaune explained.
"You mean you fight monsters every day?!" Natsu asked, out of excitement.
"That's something you would like." Gray and Gajeel thought in unison, annoyed.
"Anyway, I'm Ruby Rose, and this is Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and my sis Yang Xiao Long." Ruby explained, introducing herself and her teammates.
"At your service." Weiss said, doing a curtsy.
"Hello." Blake said.
"Nice to meet ya!" Yang hollered.
"And together we're Team RWBY!" Ruby hollered.
"Now that's a creative team name." Sugawara commented.
"And this is my pet dog, Zwei!" Ruby hollered, holding Zwei up as he yipped with joy.
Jaune cleared his throat.
"I'm Jaune Arc, and these are my two teammates Nora Valkyrie and Lie Ren; we're Team JNR." Jaune explained.
"Please to meet you all!" Nora hollered.
"Glad to be of assistance." Ren said.
"Oh, this is my wolfdog: Balto." Jaune introducing his young canine.
"Yo!" Balto hollered.
"It had to be more dogs." Happy fearfully thought, since the little Exceed isn't comfortable around dogs.
"We should call our Team NHLEWCG!" Natsu hollered.
"Stupidest. Name. Ever." Raki, Carla, Laxus, Erik, Balto and Tsukishima said in unison, not impressed.
"And why am I the last one?!" Gray asked, in an angry manner.
Natsu didn't answer, angering the ice user further.
Blake noticed Yachi curiously starting at her, particularly her Faunus ears.
"Uh… something wrong?" Blake asked.
"Well… I was just wondering if you're wearing a cat ears headpiece or are they actually apart of you?" Yachi asked only out of curiosity which Blake couldn't tell herself if that was insulting or not.
This got Ruby, Weiss (who recovered from the arrow she got from Juvia), Yang, Zwei, Jaune, Nora and Ren to get nervous, confusing everyone else.
"Well… I'm not actually human." Blake said, which surprised everyone. "I'm a Faunus."
"What's a Faunus?" Selene asked.
"They're humans with animal traits that have been discriminated for a very long time." Blake replied, which caused everyone to gasp in shock.
"How awful." Lucy said.
Yachi became horrified after what she just said. "Oh god! I misjudged someone based on their appearance!" She then bowed to Blake both hands and knees, much to Blake's bewildered surprise. "I'm sorry! So sorry!"
Kiyoko giggled. "Don't take it personally."
"I-It's okay! You didn't mean any harm." Blake explained, trying to calm Yachi down.
Lisanna giggled. "She's almost like you Lucy." She commented, which made Lucy nervously laugh.
"Why don't we go last, Daichi?" Sugawara asked.
"Sure." Daichi replied.
"Our world's just ordinary. But me and my eleven friends here are part of the Karasuno High School Volleyball Club in Miyagi Prefecture." Daichi explained.
"VOLLEYBALL?!" The Bronze Saints, Raki, Selene, Fairy Tail (except Laxus), Team RWBY, Zwei, Jaune, Nora and Balto exclaimed in unison.
"Not only that, we're also living counterparts of ourselves from another world that has ninjas both human and anthropomorphic animals - trained in the art of ninjutsu." Sugawara explained, showing his bo staff as did the other Karasuno students revealing their own weapons.
"NINJAS?!" Kouga, Souma, Sachi, Raki, Selene, Natsu, Happy, Wendy, Romeo, Evan, Elfman, Yang, Jaune and Nora exclaimed in unison, excited.
Ruby was overwhelmingly excited upon seeing the weapons of the Karasuno students and "exploded". "YOU'RE WEAPONS ARE SO COOL!"
"Simmer down…" Weiss and Blake muttered in unison, covering their ears.
Evan was at awe, which Romeo chuckled.
"Back on topic - I'm the team third-year captain and opposite hitter, Daichi Sawamura." Daichi said.
"I'm third-year vice captain and setter, Koshi Sugawara." Sugawara said, with a gentle smile.
"Third-year outside hitter and ace, Asahi Azumane." Asahi said, feeling nervous.
"Second year outside hitter, Chikara Ennoshita." Ennoshita said.
"Second year outside hitter, Ryunosuke Tanaka! But you can call me senpai, youngsters!" Tanaka boastfully hollered.
Kouga, Natsu, Ruby and Souma became ecstatic.
"I'm a second-year libero, Yu Nishinoya! Also address me as senpai!" Nishinoya hollered, giving a sparkle from his right eye and a thumbs up.
Kouga, Natsu, Ruby and Souma became ecstatic again.
"Idiots…" Yuna, Lucy and Weiss thought in unison, deadpanned towards Kouga, Natsu, Ruby and Souma.
"First-year starting setter, Tobio Kageyama." Kageyama said.
"First-year middle blocker, Shoyo Hinata!" Hinata hollered, in a boisterous manner.
"Middle blocker. First-year. Kei Tsukishima." Tsukishima said.
"First-year middle blocker and pinch server, Tadashi Yamaguchi." Yamaguchi explained.
"Third-year manager. Kiyoko Shimizu." Kiyoko said.
"H-Hitoka Yachi! First-year manager! Please to meet you!" Yachi hollered, stuttered.
Kageyama soon notice Natsu giving an impassive stare, which started to annoy the starting setter.
"What?" Kageyama asked.
"When I look at you, I see another Gray. And that pisses me off." Natsu answered, which got both Kageyama and Gray deadpanned shocked.
"I agree with Natsu-san. You both give off that ugly look on your faces." Hinata mocked.
A second later…
"YOU WANNA SAY THAT AGAIN, DUMBASSES?!" Kageyama shouted, threatening to draw an arrow with his new bow as he is enveloped in a dark blue aura.
"BRING IT ON! WE'LL KICK BOTH YOUR ASSES!" Natsu shouted, enveloped in his fiery orange aura as he ignited both his fists.
"I LIKE TO SEE YOU AND THAT PIPSQUEAK TRY!" Gray shouted, preparing an Ice-Make spell with his shirt off (again!), being enveloped in a blue aura.
"WHAT DID YOU CALL ME?!" Hinata angrily asked, drawing his swords as he is enveloped in an orange aura.
Everyone else immediately backed at least a few feet away as the four started fighting comically in a dust cloud.
"Now there's a pattern." Gajeel muttered.
"Well, Natsu-san is fire and Gray-san is ice, and the two don't usually mix well." Ryuho explained, while watching the fight nervously.
Yachi was getting nervous at seeing Hinata and Kageyama fight again, as they did during the summer and made her scarred. Lucy however, put a comforting hand on Yachi's shoulder, sensing the nervousness coming from the little manager.
"You don't have to worry," Lucy assured. "These things happen all the time at my guild. But it's always a way for friends to settle their disagreements - just as long as things don't go too far."
Yachi was understanding Lucy's point, but can't help but worry a bit.
Daichi was planning to step forward, but Mirajane put a hand in front of him.
"Why not let an expert handle this." Mirajane said.
Natsu and Hinata were continuing their bout with Gray and Kageyama, until…
With four mighty blows to the head, Erza silenced the four idiots and got everyone else cowering in fear.
"Enough fighting. Understand?" Erza warned, giving off her signature glare.
"Yes… ma'am…" Natsu, Hinata, Gray and Kageyama groaned in unison.
"Such strength." Penny awed.
"That's why Erza-san's the scariest in my guild." Wendy added, nervously.
"I'm glad to see you kids in good spirits." A voice commented, which Ruby recognized.
Arriving in the main area were the Goddess of Wisdom Athena, or Saori Kido as Athena's current reincarnation, the legendary Sagittarius Gold Saint and Kouga's predecessor of the Pegasus Cloth Seiya; leader of Crime Sorcière member Jellal Fernandes, and Fairy Tail's Sixth and First Guild Masters Makarov Dreyar and Mavis Vermillion; veteran huntsmen Qrow Branwen, and Oscar Pine, the current reincarnation of the old wizard Ozpin; and the ninjutsu master of Karasuno from the world of ninjutsu, Master Saru.
Kouga, Happy and Ruby were greatly surprised, as well Natsu and Hinata (who managed to recover from the beating Erza gave them).
"Saori-san?! Seiya?!" Kouga exclaimed.
"Gramps?! Jellal?! First Master?!" Natsu exclaimed.
"Uncle Qrow?! Oscar?!" Ruby exclaimed.
"Master Saru?!" Hinata exclaimed.
"This is getting freakier by the minute!" Happy exclaimed.
"They were here with us before you guys since last night." Haruto said.
Kouga, Ruby and Hinata glared at Natsu and Happy, who began whistling in denial for their "escape plan".
"But they won't tell us why until you guys got here first." Yang explained, feeling impatient and not in a trusting mood.
"Is that a problem?" Daichi asked, glaring at Yang hard, making her cower behind Blake, making the Faunus lightly blush.
"He's as scary as Erza…" Gray muttered, feeling scared.
"You have no idea…" Kageyama muttered.
"Alright, we're all here now." Seiya said.
"Yes, it's time to begin." Saori said.

Everyone gathered once again, now ready to hear the reason them all being here.
"As you were all wondering why were here… is because there is a great evil that must be stopped." Saori explained.
"What evil?" Sachi asked.
"A fallen god named Nightmare." Mavis answered.
Everyone became silent until Kouga felt a strange presence from Mavis.
"Hang on… why is that I can see and hear her, but not actually feel her presence?" Kouga asked.
"Oh… that's because I'm actually a ghost." Mavis replied, awkwardly scratching the back of her head.
"WHAT~!?" Kouga, Souma, Yuna, Ryuho, Sachi, Emma, Aria, Raki, Selene, Ruby, Weiss, Blake, Yang, Jaune, Zwei, Balto, Nora, Hinata, Yachi, Kageyama, Tsukishima, Yamaguchi, Tanaka, Nishinoya, Ennoshita, Daichi, Sugawara and Asahi exclaimed in unison.
"YOU CAN SEE FIRST MASTER?!" Natsu, Happy, Lucy, Gray, Erza, Wendy, Carla, Romeo, Evan, Juvia, Gajeel, Lily, Levy, Mirajane, Elfman, Lisanna, Cana and Laxus exclaimed in unison.
"I can hear her quite fine. But seeing her is another thing." Erik commented.
"We can worry about that later. But Mavis-san is alive despite being a ghost." Master Saru explained.
"Freaked us out when we found out too…" Jellal, Qrow and Oscar thought in unison.
"As for Nightmare. His goal is to gather the seven Cosmic Gems and use them for total multi-universal domination." Saori explained.
"Cosmic Gems?" Kouga asked.
"Seven godly stones that tie to different aspects of this universe: Power, Time, Mind, Soul, Space, Reality and Magic." Ozpin explained, taking over Oscar's body to explain.
"Wielding any for a mere mortal can be fatal. Nightmare's quite confident in his godly status he can control all seven of them to do just that." Makarov explained.
"And his power is no joke either." Jellal said.
"That doesn't bode well if he's ridiculously strong." Souma said, in concern.
"He's also got an army of not only his personal foot soldiers called "Phantoms", he's being backed up by enemies we've encountered so far in the past." Qrow explained, causing the rest of the group to gasp in shock.
That caught Kouga, Natsu, Happy, Ruby and Hinata's collective attention, remembering the fight with Sauk and Tetra yesterday.
"I know you all have questions and I can't blame you. I am trying to figure out why Nightmare is plotting a war for these stones," Saori explained, collecting her thoughts before showing a serious expression that got almost everyone on edge.
"It's your choice to fight or not. We unfortunately can't return to our worlds until we stop Nightmare. But please…" Saori continued.
"Fight for your worlds as a team… and save them." Saori finished.
Everyone now became silent as to think for a response to Saori. Kouga was the first to go.
"You don't have to ask, Saori-san. I'll always fight for the peace and love of not just Earth, but for all our worlds." Kouga explained.
"So I'll fight who ever stands in our way. And show Nightmare and his goons our bonds are stronger than their evil!" Kouga hollered, clenching his right fist.
Natsu, Ruby and Hinata stepped forward too.
"Kouga's right. It even doesn't matter how dangerous this is, or how strong they are." Natsu explained.
"We've fought long and hard to get to where we are now, and on our terms." Natsu continued explained.
"Just because you all think this is impossible, I don't want things to end." Ruby explained.
"There are dreams we also want to achieve. No one's getting in the way of that." Hinata explained.
"So… who's with us?" Kouga, Natsu, Ruby and Hinata asked in unison, calling out to their friends.
One-by-one, each of them smiled and raised their hands in agreement, feeling the positive impact those four alone gave from their speeches, as well as the adults in the room.
Saori smiled. "Thank you." Saori thought.
"Now then… let's get this place up and running!" Seiya hollered.
"YEAAAAHHHHH!" Kouga, Natsu, Happy, Ruby, Hinata, Yuna, Lucy, Nami, Yachi, Souma, Ryuho, Haruto, Eden, Sachi, Emma, Aria, Raki, Selene, Gray, Erza, Wendy, Carla, Juvia, Gajeel, Lily, Levy, Romeo, Evan, Mirajane, Elfman, Lisanna, Cana, Laxus, Erik, Blake, Yang, Jaune, Balto, Nora, Ren, Penny, Kageyama, Tsukishima, Yamaguchi, Tanaka, Nishinoya, Ennoshita, Daichi, Sugawara, Asahi, Kiyoko, Jellal, Makarov, Mavis, Qrow, Oscar (now in control of his body after Ozpin left) and Master Saru, shouted in unison.
Zwei howled in agreement.
The newly formed "Alliance" prepare to resume the construction of their new home, as the battle against their new foe begins soon!
Preview Skit:
Kouga: It looks like we've got a war on our hands.
Yuna: Seems so dear.
Souma: At least it won't be us Saints this time!
Eden: This new enemy may take all of us and our new friends to fight Nightmare and those foolish to side with him.
Kouga: I'll send them all packing before you know it!
Souma: That's my line, bro!
Kouga: No it wasn't copycat!
Souma (shoving Kouga in an intense standoff): Huh?!
Yuna: Knock it off, you two!
Eden: Those two never change.
Eden: Next time: Chapter 2 - Room Contest: Part One.
Kouga: Let's see who can clean the most!
Souma: Bring it.
Kouga and Souma left the scene, leaving an irritated Yuna and Eden.
Yuna & Eden: Idiots…
Did you enjoy it? Sorry to have kept you all waiting by the way. Some of the context is based off the old "Holy World War" and "Holy World Adventures" that I once did, and some of it will still be used in this story (like a massive revision). Be warned, most of the chapters will be extremely long, but worth the effort that each character gets their part to play. The new home is a mixture of both the Fairy Tail Guild Hall and Avengers Mansion, which will be fully built and explained by next chapter.
As I said in the prologue, I'll be working on the old chapters of this story first, then the old chapters done in Super World Chronicles, then the first chapter of Grand World Chronicles.
