Chapter 14

Being surrounded by four sword wielding Mages, Genki and Angel stood back to back in the middle of a street. Angel had her appealing eyes upon the two enemies before her, and then looked back towards Genki, who in turn was ready to deal with the enemies before him.

"I can sense they at least have decent levels of magical power. But it wont be enough for the pair of us."

"Yeah, lets deal with them quickly."

Angel smirked when hearing that, and began formulating a strategy within her mind.

"If its quickly, then let me show you how to pull off a multiple summoning." Angel flips the key within her hand, and shines it forward. "Open, Gate of the Ram, Aries." Along with a flash, the nervous Aries was summoned. "Aries, time to cause a major upset, and make them wheeze."

Angel expressed joyfully, with Aries looking around nervously.

Since it was his first time seeing her, Genki could understand fully why Virgo was worried. It was very easy to tell how shy Aries truly was. Each word Angel sent at her, caused her to look more and more worried, she had been through a lot after all.

"I-I'm sorry...a-are they all..." Aries's eyes turns towards Genki, who shows a kind smile. "G-Genki-sama! N-No Angel-san, please don't make me fight Genki-sama!"

"I wouldn't dream of it Aries, attacking such a man is something I'd never do."

"Besides the time you did attack me."

Genki reminded with a playful tone, something Angel became rather excited by, and showed her coolest smile.

"Water under the bridge, Darling."

Aries looked towards Genki, unsure of what was going on.

But he gave her a collected and kind smile that caused her to push her fingers together gently.

"Its alright Aries-san, we have come to an agreement, wouldn't you say Angel-san?"

"Yes, I believe that we have done." Angel turns towards an attacking enemy, who she gives off a slight laugh. "And now." Angel dodges a sword slash, and palm strikes him in the stomach rather fast, sending him flying backwards, and hitting the ground harshly. "We are going to be beating these enemies in one hit."

"Got anything in mind for that accomplishment?"

"Of course Darling, watch this."

Angel reveals another golden key.

Genki watches as the key lights up with a beautiful golden light.

"Open, Gate of the Heavenly Scales, Libra."

When Angel said that, she summoned what appeared to be a young woman wearing a rather revealing outfit that resembled a belly dancer, and carrying two scales that were dangling from her fingertips via thin cords, holding them like a puppeteer would do.

Genki watches as Angel shows a delightful smile.

"Libra, while Aries is fluffing them out, you use your change in gravity to weigh them down."

"As you wish."

Genki lightly smiles, and brings out his own gate key.

"If we're summoning, then..." Genki has his key give off a bright dazzling light. "Open, Gate of the Maiden, Virgo!"

Virgo appeared after a flash of blinding light, revealing the maid...leaning forward, and showing a cute stoic expression towards him.

"Prince, is it time for our special one on one time? I am ready...for the Prince to cuddle me tightly with his manly embrace."

Genki slaps himself in the head, as Virgo continues giving him a strong stoic look.

Aries lets out a cute cry of bewilderment, while Angel snickers at the sight.

"Eh, no. We've got enemies to fight."

Virgo looks at the enemies, then gives them quizzing looks, then turned back to Genki.

"Prince, I understand. What shall I do?"

"When Aries-san has used her wool on them, you open holes underneath them, giving Libra-san an even better way to use her gravity change magic to confine them to one space, then I shall finish them off."

Angel nods, as they watch the four men attack, so Genki went to move, when Angel calls out to Aries instead.

"Aries, its time to do it."

Aries looks towards Genki, who nods with an encouraging look.

"Its alright Aries-san. It wont be long, promise."

With that encouragement, Aries thrusts her hand out, and shyly begins speaking.

"100 percent...Fluffy...Fluffy...Wool!"

From Aries hand, a thick flurry of wool shoots for the enemies. They didn't have time to dodge out of the way, and were caught in the wool. The thickness of the wool caused them to be blinded, and also, due to the wools effects, causes them to wheeze at the same time.

While doing that, Virgo dives underground at the trapped opponents, and caused them to sink into the ground. Angel announces "Now Libra." which in turn has the spirit unleash her gravy change magic, which causes the gravy to increase around the holes Virgo made, digging the enemies lower and lower into the ground.

"Successfully stopped. Now, Darling. The honours."

Genki nods, and leaps high into the air.

He looks down towards the trapped enemies, who tried clawing their way out. But due to the size of the holes, and the depths, along with the gravity, they barely were able to crawl even a little up the wall, before they were severally brought back down again.

"Moon Dragons Roar!"

From his mouth, a beam of intense moonlight escaped, and shot down like a laser. The beam of moonlight energy shot through into the hole, and moments later, the hole detonated in a large explosion, ripping apart the road for a good few blocks of the city.

Genki and Angel stood side by side with their spirits around them, as the enemies were defeated in a single blow thanks to their combination making it easier for the other to deal with the enemies.

"Looks like they've been finished off, and in record timing."

"Yes, now lets get to the others."

"Naturally, I worry for Juvia." Genki looks towards Angel with a happy gaze, Angel caught what she said, and fixed her words. "What I mean is, I worry in case she does something reckless, she can be like that after all."

Genki could see that Angel was trying to cover her worry for Juvia, which he thought was pretty cute.

"Virgo-chan, I'll have you make sure that the civilians are safe, okay?" Virgo nods at Genki. "Then lets get going."

Nodding at one another, the two took off with their spirits going back to the spirit world to be summoned again for later.


As that was going on, Juvia, Loke, Wendy and Carla looked to see this one woman whos pink hair seemingly swayed in the winds of the night. With the room they stayed in being completely destroyed, save for a few things, Juvia was extremely mad, as this woman had said something that to Juvia was a sin.

But to have more room to fight, they all leapt outside in a group.

When they did, they all saw that a few people surrounded them.

The pink haired woman calmly walked out of the apartment, and towards the enemies that she had.

"Such beautiful anger on your face, I am pleased to see this. It is like, beautiful poetry. You shall die, before the one you love comes."

"Y-You can't hurt Genki-sama! He is kind!"

"A job is a job."

The young woman replied, Wendy narrowed her brows.

"Someone...called for this to happen? Someone wanted Genki-san to be killed?"

The young pink haired woman raised a brow at Wendy, before she pulled her sword out of its sheathe.

"It doesn't matter. Also, my name is Ikaruga. I tend to tell the people I kill my name, because they wont be able to repeat it anyway."

Uneasiness settled into the hearts of the four around.

Ikaruga turns towards her comrades, and gave a strict face as she did so.

"Observe this battle, and it will show you how to hone your assassination techniques. These opponents aren't to be underestimated as they are travelling companions of Genki, is that understood?" The allies of Ikaruga nod, as Ikaruga turns back to the enemies she has. "Now, it is time to meet your end."

The four of them wince, with Juvia tightened her hand, allowing her water to flow all around her, before she swings out her hand, announcing "Water Slicer!" which Ikaruga sees coming, dodging out of the way, which in turn slices through part of a stone building, showing the pressure and strength of her water blade.

Juvia follows through with her attack, and sends a few blades of water out towards Ikaruga, only for Ikaruga to swing her sword out several times, slicing through the water attacks, and in turn Juvia also receives slashes across her body.

The enemy thought they had gotten Juvia, but Juvia had used her own technique to turn herself into water before the blade reaches her.

"H-Her body!"

Wendy gasps in surprise while Juvia uses this chance to shoot forward.

"Interesting, your body can turn into that of water."

Juvia gets to the right hand side of Ikaruga, and thrusts her hand out.

A dome of water surrounds Ikaruga, who in turn floats inside of it without showing any worry.

"Water Lock! You shall be trapped inside for trying to harm Juvia's Genki-sama!"

Wendy had to admit that Juvia did that rather well, and moved better than expected.

But she saw the calm Ikaruga, who didn't even bat an eyelid, and swung her sword out several times. Despite the intense water, the blade seamlessly cleaved through the water, chopping it down until it became destabilized, and fell down to the ground, drenching said ground in water, at the same time slamming Juvia who couldn't stop it by turning to water, and the others down into the ground harshly.

"She really is good. But, Juvia wouldn't expect anything less from someone that's come to assassinate someone as strong as Genki-sama."

Juvia pulled herself up from the ground, wincing as she felt her shoulder.

It did feel sore from the hit.

That was until Wendy went over, and placed her hand out towards Juvia, and used her magic to heal the damage.

Juvia looked back towards Wendy, and saw Wendy giving her a strong smile.

"Wendy-san..."

"I don't want anything to happen to you Juvia-san. So, lets do it together."

Juvia was surprised to see someone else coming to her side, and helping her.

It moved Juvia, who couldn't help but nod at the sight before her.

"But, how? She is strong, Juvia suspects she's stronger than us all. Only Genki-sama might be able to win against her."

"Maybe that's true, but I know Genki-san...he will be on the way. Until then..." Wendy looks at Carla, who nods her head, Wendy turns to Loke, who equips another ring, so Wendy raises her hands to the sky, and magic gathers around her form. "Vernier! Arms! Armour!"

Magical auras surround both Juvia and Loke, while Ikaruga looks astounded.

"This magic..."

Ikaruga wondered, as Juvia looks down at herself.

"This is weird...Juvia feels...stronger, and faster..."

Wendy nods.

"Even your defence Juvia-san. Now please, lets do our best!"

Juvia feeling empowered, allows her water to gather around her hands, before she turns it onto the enemy. She announces "Water Ray!" and releases a beam of water right for Ikaruga.

The young pink haired woman noticed the speed and power had indeed been increased, to the point Ikaruga had to react sooner, but still managed to cut down the water before it reached her.

It gave Loke the time to get behind her, activating his ring, and caused a twister to erupt from behind her. Ikaruga went to turn around, when Juvia dashed forward, and got to the right hand side, shooting forth several blasts of compressed water to try and take down Ikaruga.

Seeing the attacks, Ikaruga calmly brought out her sword, and twirled around with it.

"These flames shall finish you."

When she did, flames suddenly came forth, and devastated the area surrounding Juvia.

Juvia's water evaporated from the intense heat, the flames continued down the street, blowing apart the road, and the walls of the building at the same time, catching Loke up who went flying backwards, the same for Juvia, but thanks to Wendy's magic, their defense was enough to keep them in the fight, even if they suffered some injuries as a result.

"I see that the girls magic has buffed your power. But it wont be enough for me to lose against you both-"

As Ikaruga spoke, Wendy yelled "Sky Dragons Roar!" and released her breath attack towards Ikaruga.

Ikaruga while twirling, unleashed her giant roaring flame against Wendy's own attack. The attack was strong enough to be able to repel Wendy's breath attack, and collapse it before it could do much damage.

But Wendy then came running up towards her. Her tiny fist was coated in her Sky Dragon Slayer magic, and came at Ikaruga, forcing Ikaruga to turn towards her to deal with her swiftly.

"Sky Dragons Crushing Fang!"

Swinging her fist down towards Ikaruga, a wake of wind was left in the path of her hands movements, and Ikaruga merely blocked with her sword. The strength of the winds that she used, even surprised Ikaruga who stared curiously at the young girl.

"You have good fighting form, you have no obvious weak spots. Who is your teacher?"

"My Mother Grandeeney, and Genki-san!"

"So, you're a student of Genki's are you? Interesting, explains a few things." Ikaruga showed a devilish look, tightening her grip on her blade. "You three have good team work despite being together not so long. However, I have to end you all now."

Ikaruga jumped away, as the four of them gathered together, watching as Ikaruga slashes forward several times, and as she does so, she leaves a trail of slices in the air, leaving them lingering in the sky for a few moments, cutting off any potential paths to move out of the way.

The four, Juvia, Wendy, Loke, and Carla look on as she makes a stance with her sword.

"Garuda Flame."

Moving her sword a single time, in a circular motion, unleashes a massive wave of flames that easily shatters the ground and everything else before it. The heat of the flames reminds Wendy of some flame users she has seen before, showing that this woman truly was a very strong woman indeed.

"Juvia has to do something to stop this!"

Juvia grits her teeth, and unleashes her water towards the flames. But they evaporate before they could do any damage to the flames. Loke grimaces, wishing that he could use his spirit powers to give them assistance, but knew that he couldn't do anything of the sort.


When it seemed like the flames would reach them, suddenly they split apart as beautiful blades of moonlight escape from the right hand side. The flames scatter all the way around, with the blades cutting into the ground, and leaving rather big crescent moon shaped holes in the earth.

Genki and Angel soon came into view.

The four look towards Genki, Carla and Wendy were relieved.

Juvia was overjoyed, and Loke was happy to see that their ace had arrived.

"Genki-san, you're here!"

Genki waved to Wendy.

"Sorry, some people tried to stop us on the way here." Genki turned his eyes to Ikaruga who in turn looked pleased to see he had arrived. "Which I take is because of you, right?" Ikaruga nods without pause, Genki glanced at his comrades, and could see some injuries on them, he didn't look pleased. "So, you targeted my friends, did you?"

His tone was low, and felt rather powerful to the point even Ikaruga felt for a brief moment a pressure building upon her from such powerful desire to protect them, but then Ikaruga fixed her form, and gave an intense stare right back.

"I didn't want any hindrances, as I killed you."

"So you want to kill me huh? Wouldn't be the first time and you certainly wont be the last either. But trying to take out my friends, to what, make me feel grief or something to lower my combat ability?"

"I am not stupid, I have heard the rumours of you before, the boy that destroys Dark Guilds, together with the Lightning of Fairy Tail. The Moonlight and the Lightning truly are the most deadly pair."

"Looks like we've garnered a scary reputation between us." Genki turned towards Wendy and the others. "Wendy-chan, Juvia-san, Carla-san, Loke, you four alright?" They each nod thankfully, while Loke turns towards Angel with sharp eyes, something Angel noticed. "Can you all still fight?"

"Yes Genki-sama! Juvia shall fight this woman for you!"

Genki gave kind eyes towards Juvia.

"That's sweet, but leave her with me, I was going to ask you all to take down her friends. Is that okay? I've got Virgo-chan already making sure that civilians are in a safe location."

Juvia gives a wondering stare, then she nods in agreement.

"Yes, Juvia will do that with the others! Please make sure she is defeated Genki-sama!"

"Thanks Juvia-san, and I shall do my best." Genki turned to Angel, and began speaking. "Angel-san, can you team up..." Angel shakes her head, confusing Genki. "Angel-san, what's wrong?"

"Your male companion, looking at his eyes, I doubt he's going to try and team up with me Darling. In fact, he's probably going to try and attack me. Do not worry, he has been wanting to speak with me since we first met, I will take his words, Genki-kun, it seems things need to be discussed after all, I believe it would be best if this happened."

Angel pushed forward as Loke rushed towards her.

Genki went to intervene when Ikaruga launches herself towards him, forcing him to block the young woman's strike so he blasted her away and charged for her, as Angel waved her hand towards him, showing that she would deal with this.

Wendy and Juvia looked to one another, then saw the other Mages trying to begin fighting, so Wendy and Juvia turned onto them.

"Lets take them down, for Juvia's beloved sake Wendy-san!"

Wendy gave Juvia strange eyes, Carla sighed at the sight, and merely nods her head.

So the trio begin working together to take down the enemies.


Genki and Ikaruga land in a different area down the road. Ikaruga revealed her blade towards Genki, and twirled her sword around.

As she did, flames began to emit from the blade, and in turn scorch the very ground that was underneath her.

Genki gazed at her, as she carefully approached him. She didn't made a threatening move, yet it appeared that at any moment, she would be willing to strike, and fire off an attack, her eyes displayed little in the ways of emotions, showing that she could be considered a true assassin.

"The hero came to save the day. How touching."

Ikaruga mused, with Genki raising his eyebrow.

"And here you are, the villain of the tale I presume."

"By hire, yes. Though, I have to admit that to fight you of all people, I was delighted. To see the power that Fairy Tail has been cultivating for itself. You, and Laxus have been quite the worrisome for those within Dark Guilds."

"Guess that's bad for you then."

Ikaruga showed a darker smile, then rushed Genki.

"Lets see if I can clip the scales off a Dragon."

"Lets see if I can destroy the sword of an assassin."

Ikaruga beautifully twirled in the air, then she came down, and slashes in the air, sending out pressurized air cuts from a distance towards Genki.

The young man elegantly avoids the sword slices, which cleave into the ground, then Genki opens up his hand, exclaiming "Moonlight Conflagration!" and unleashes flames towards Ikaruga.

"Naive!"

Ikaruga swings her sword out several times to try and cleave through the flames. But it proved to be trickier than she expected, as the flames were rather strong, but she did manage to cut through some of the flames, but not the majority that came towards her, so she didn't have a choice but to move out of the way by going higher than the flames, only for Genki to appear above her, with his hand extending out towards her.

Releasing a sharp blast of moonlight energy, Ikaruga uses her blade to guard against the attack, but chips appear within the blade as she's pushed down to the ground, where the flames are welcoming her to be burned, causing Ikaruga to smirk at the sight.

"He truly is sharp, he predicted I'd have to jump this way, so he prepared the flames below me, and got above me, releasing an attack that would send me down towards the ground with little choice to move due to being in the air as we are, this boy really is dangerous, and I simply love it. I want to keep dancing all night with this one."

Ikaruga removed her kimono outfit, leaving her in bra and panties to Genki's surprise, she used her kimono to use as a stepping stone for her as she hits the ground.

The kimono gets burned through, but it gave Ikaruga enough time to get out of the light flames that was burning all around her, and leap on top of a building to escape the burning street.

Ikaruga looks down towards Genki, who in turn looks right back towards her, as he returns to the ground.

"Not bad, not bad at all, Genki-kun. Though, to be in such a state of dress in front of a young man, how shameful." Ikaruga snaps her fingers, and a new kimono appears all around her. "You have good combat ability, but it wont be enough for me."

Intrigued even more, Genki snapped his hands and then allowed moonlight to gather at the base of each fingertip that he had, then announces "Moonlight Mini Blades!" and instead of releasing only one big one at a time, he released five smaller ones, but still very sharp and deadly, all precisely going towards Ikaruga.

"You're pretty good assassin-san!"

The young woman noted the speed of the blades as Genki called out to her, and used her own sword to parry all but two of them. Because they moved so fast, it was precisely why Ikaruga wasn't able to dodge them all, and one managed to cut her right hand side, and the other slashed her left leg, both drawing blood from the young woman.

"I will show you how good I am Dragon Slayer!"

Ikaruga then dashes forward in lightning fast movements, and sends several strikes with her blade towards Genki. The young man nimbly dodges out of the way, then he saw an opening, and flooded his foot with moonlight, before smashing it into her gut, causing her to cough out blood, propelling her down the street, Genki noticing that she had managed to cut his right arm, something that impressed him.

Ikaruga coughed out a little more blood, as she gazed towards Genki.

"I'm impressed by your power Dragon Slayer."

"And I yours, Ikaruga-san, was it?"

Ikaruga showed a willingness to fight against Genki, and showed a dark expression on her face, seeing that she was being repelled at each strike she was giving, making her want to attack even harder than before.

"You are fast. But it doesn't matter, as I shall be victorious. You can't keep parrying me without a sword."

"Without a sword huh? What gave you the impression that I don't have a sword?" Ikaruga looked last as Genki pulled out a silver key, and twirled it around his finger. "Open, Gate of the Chisel. Caelum." Popping into existence, the floating metal sphere went towards Genki's side. "Sword form Caelum please."

The spirit complied, and turned into a large sword like weapon, and Genki twirled it around his hand as he noticed the battle between Angel, and Loke, noticing what was happening, so he began to speak up…


As that was going on, Angel and Loke stand off against one another. Loke activates his ring magic, and creates a twister around in front of him. Angel herself looked rather intrigued, and pulled forward ever so slightly.

"Nice rings. Is that a Lacrima I see inside of that ring? So, that's how you use this Ring Magic is it?"

"Angel...you had something to do with this, didn't you? Endangering people like Wendy, and even putting Juvia in the line of fire. Isn't she from your own group? Do you not have any morals at all?"

"So quick to point the finger, aren't you? But the simple fact is, that this isn't me. I had no control over this at all. I don't even know who that pink haired woman is. Some kind of samurai or something? It makes no difference to me what her deal is, Genki-kun will soon deal with her."

Angel said in a way that she appeared uncaring, Loke couldn't discern if she was telling the truth or not.

So he rushed towards her, and tried to land a blow on her, when she dodged out of the way, and followed through with a palm strike. The force of the blow was more than enough to cause Loke to become knocked off balance, then Angel swiftly pushes him bacwards with a thrust of her palm, leaving him skidding across the ground.

Loke grimaced as Angel wagged her finger at him.

"Since being with my beloved fellow Angel, I have been practising a little bit with hand to hand."

"Hand to hand is my specialty."

Loke replied, Angel shrugged.

"Perhaps you're more skilled than I am. But something is off with you, isn't it? You aren't really using the innate magical power that you have to assist you in your movements, to shoot any kind of magical power at me apart from that rings magic. The Lacrima in that ring is allowing you to use that Ring Magic of yours. So, what's going on with you I wonder? Hm, ever since we met, I felt something was off about you. So, let me ask...why do you care so much about Aries huh? I understand Darling...but you. What ties do you have in this?"

Loke didn't want to give away anything to Angel, in case she would use it back against him somehow.

"Because I care for spirits, that's why."

"Only because you care for spirits, Loke was it?"

Angel said it dangerously, and showed a smirk on her face, it was hard for Loke to keep his composure.

"...Celestial Spirit Mages like you, treating your spirits as tools..."

"Perhaps in the past I thought that was true, but my Darling has opened my eyes. Though, sometimes they rebel, like the Lion did for poor Karen."

Loke paused when she said that, and looked bewildered towards Angel.

"...What did you say?"

"Karen, she was betrayed by her spirit, wasn't she? The Lion, Leo. He left the girl defenceless, she really didn't have a clue on how to survive on her own. She couldn't summon a spirit in the end, and taking Aries from her, was child's play. She wasted her energies and the key was right there, for the taking. Good thing I took her, that Karen was a cruel woman to her spirits."

Her words dripped from her mouth, neither having good nor evil intentions behind them. It merely was Angel stating a fact.

Loke looked towards Angel, and his anger became more so, rushing towards her as he angrily yelled "So you did kill Karen!" with Angel having leapt back, avoiding a fist from Loke, and then she pulled out a golden key.

"Open, Gate of the Heavenly Scales, Libra."

Bringing Libra into the human world, Angel flicked her key towards Loke, and said "Send him into the ground." and Libra correspondingly did what she said and used her gravity change magic to force Loke towards the ground, onto his knees.

Angel walked closer, as she pulls out Aries key.

"Now Open, Gate of the Ram, Aries."

Aries popped into existence, and when she did, she saw Loke looking towards her with wide eyes. She in turn looked surprised, she could tell this was Loke, and seeing him for the first time since what happened with Karen, the guilt within Loke's eyes, and her own pain now having to have a fight with him.

"..."

Loke was at a loss for words, especially after seeing Aries giving off sad eyes.

Loke didn't want to fight her, and Aries didn't want to either.

She looked towards Angel, who in turn gazed back towards her.

"Aries, what is with those eyes?"

"Please...I don't...I don't want to fight..."

Angel raised a brow at the meek spirit, peering into the young girls eyes, and exhaled slowly.

"Angel-san!" Genki called out, surprising both Aries, and Angel. "Please don't make them fight, Angel-san. I'm asking you to do me this favour. I know you know, don't you?"

"So my theory was correct..." Angel waved her key at Aries. "Go on, get out of here. Go back to the spirit world. You have proved my point, I thought that it was, but needed to make sure."

Aries was relieved to not have to fight against Loke, and looked towards Genki, who in turn gave strong kind eyes.

"Don't worry Aries-san, I'll make sure that Loke is safe, okay?"

"Genki-sama...y-you are too kind...t-thank you so much…!"

Aries began crying tears of gratitude, understanding more and more what Virgo was saying about Genki all this time.

How he truly was someone that had so much love for the spirits, and wished for them to be safe, and happy at the same time. Wanting them to be loved, and have their own freedoms, which is why Aries knew deep within her heart that Genki was someone that she did wish to follow after.

Genki smiled as she vanished, then turned back to his own fight, while Angel looked towards Loke

"I see, then my suspicions have been confirmed by your little outburst and then Aries appearance, Leo." Loke grit his teeth, as Angel exhales. "You condemn me as her killer. When the truth is, I left Karen very much alive when we came across one another. I took her key, its true. Beyond that, whatever she went through, has nothing to do with me."

"You're lying! She's dead! I was told as much!"

"You heard she died like that, very interesting."

Loke grit his teeth, as Angel looked over Loke, thinking about what to do next...


Back with Genki and Ikaruga, with the young man holding the sword form of Caelum in his hand, Ikaruga herself having heard the conversation that was going on, and raised an eyebrow.

"So the rumours of your heart are true. You can't have a kind heart to be ruthless, a word of warning."

"I don't believe that's true in the slightest. I am kind to people I care for and love, ruthless to those I believe deserve it."

"Do I deserve it?"

Ikaruga asked with curiosity.

Genki let out a small laugh.

"Not sure, haven't decided yet."

Ikaruga looked intrigued by this, and she took a step forward, before she vanished, and came in from the right hand side rather fast.

"Let me help you decide then!"

swinging her blade for him, Genki vanished and dodges out of the way, only to come up from above, with his blade angled down towards her.

Ikaruga dances away, the blade of Caelum slams hard into the ground, and shatters the earth below him, sectioning it off as Genki releases his moonlight underneath the earth, ripping through the area.

Ikaruga keeps leaping back as the earth opens up more and more from the heavy duty attack of his moonlight, then she takes one massive swing, releasing a far ranged bladed strike that travels through the air at intense speeds.

"The light from your blade, is exquisite, dazzling and charming at the same time. Yet I am sensing you're holding back your power."

"In such confined areas, it isn't always ideal to release your full power."

"I see, I understand well. Both of us are in the limitations with the area that we are in. However, it wont stop me from achieving my goals."

Genki raises his moonlight enhanced blade, and parries it with that, destroying Ikaruga's attack, only to see that Ikaruga used this chance to get in from the right hand side, and come at him with a myriad of slashes moving so fast that only Genki there would be able to see them.

Using his speed, Genki clashed with the sword of Ikaruga, and sparks went off between their weapons, parrying each of her bladed strikes, and crossed swords, staring off into one another's eyes.

"You have a good swords master."

"I am sure that Erza-san would be very pleased to hear you say that."

Mutually pushing away, Ikaruga comes in from the right, and sends eight slashes towards Genki in the span of a second.

Genki noted the speed that she used, and matched it, parrying each and every of the eight slashes, and dashing to different parts of the road, clashing over and over with each strike creating shockwaves between their blades.

"This woman is really good. She'd easily be S Class within Fairy Tail for sure. I can see why Wendy-chan and the others weren't able to beat her. Even people like Erza-san, and Mira-san would have a good deal of difficulty with this woman. But, I am sure they'd both be able to beat her eventually, and so will I."

Genki pushed forward with his blade, his superior strength sent Ikaruga back a few paces, along with a shockwave of his blade, ripping through the ground via his moonlight energy leaking off of the blade, and being added to the power of Genki's weapon, repelling Ikaruga to the point she was smashed down the street a good few houses away, gritting her teeth as she did so.

As she stood up, she turned her sword towards Genki, when Virgo suddenly came out of the ground.

"Prince, all have been evacuated from the immediate area, and are in safe locations. There is no endangerment to any civilians."

Genki smiled when he heard that, and turned his eyes to Ikaruga.

"Thank you Virgo-chan. Now we don't have to hold back, Ikaruga-san."

Ikaruga took a step back, and looked on with momentary worry, but then strength filled her, and determination.

"If that is how it is, I will show you the depths of my strength." Ikaruga began drawing a circle with her sword, and her flames began to show themselves all around her. "Its time for you to be finished off now. With my strongest Garuda Flames. I will pour my power into this, show you my full capabilities!"

Noting her increase of her, Genki began doing the same.

Gathering light around his body, he himself looked like a burning star, that caused Ikaruga to furrow her brows in some worry. What was more, the moon in the sky was growing, bigger and bigger. Stars twinkled, and the beautiful light shined down, Ikaruga had huge shadows all around her, and in turn Genki looked to be bathed in the light, giving him a rather angelic appearance.

"You were a good opponent, if circumstances were different, I would have liked to have fought you longer, but now I have to finish the fight. So thank you for the entertaining fight. I'll respect your strength as a warrior, and show you my strength. Time to finish this."

Ikaruga grit her teeth, feeling despair with the light shining upon her, even reaching the depths of her body, and bathing her in a beautiful nights sky that was right before her eyes, and brought a happy yet fearful look to her eyes.

"Fine, come at me!"

Ikaruga growled, so Genki complied, as the sparkling moonlight energy gathered around his mouth, as he took a deep breath in.

"Moonlight Dragon Gods Roar!"

From his mouth, Genki released his breath attack. However, this was more potent, and a good deal stronger than his usual breath attack, which caused the street to begin ripping apart by the sheer power he was exuding. It cost a good deal more magical energy than a typical breath attack, but the results, showed for itself.

"...Shit..."

Ikaruga in turn fired off her flames, and the pairs attacks clashed in the center, creating a giant shockwave that broke windows all the way around, causing houses to shake, the ground to be blown apart, along with the parting of the clouds up high due to the sheer amount of power being shown.

Wendy, Juvia, Carla, who had finished their fight with ease, Loke, and Angel who were still fighting, all felt the intense attack, and saw how devastating such an attack truly could be, and saw that Ikaruga's flames stood no chance against the attack.

Completely overwhelmed by the star like light, her flames were snuffed out almost immediately, Ikaruga's form was overtaken by the beam of twinkling moonlight, and silenced everywhere in the area, to the point even onlookers were stopped.


When the light died down, Ikaruga had many wounds all across her body, yet she was still standing. Blood poured out of her, while she looked towards Genki with renewed passion and hope at the same time as fear and apprehension at facing such a foe, realizing now that she didn't have the ability to win against him.

"So this is...the power...of Genki...the Light of...Fairy Tail..."

Ikaruga after a few moments, fell down to the floor, unconscious, as Genki exhales, and unsummons Caelum, turning towards Wendy and the others.

"Wendy-chan, could you be so kind as to heal her? I still wish to learn some stuff from her."

"Y-Yes of course...and Genki-san, that was really amazing...!"

"Thank you, Wendy-chan. You were very amazing yourself." Genki replied, patting Wendy on the head who gushes up towards him. "Everything that happened today Wendy-chan, you handled everything today with strength, and protection of those around you as well. You did outstanding."

Wendy blushed at his words and then rushes off towards Ikaruga to make sure that she stays alive, while Juvia silently moved to his right hand side, and peered towards him.

Genki in turn glanced at Juvia, who seemed to be waiting for something.

"Eh...is something wrong?"

"Genki-sama, Juvia didn't know that you commanded the moon."

"Ah, yes. That's my Dragon Slayer power."

"Juvia sees...did you know Genki-sama, the ocean, and the moon have close ties with one another?"

"Yeah, I guess they do now I think about it..."

"Then that means, you understand Juvia, and Genki-sama have such close ties with one another as well. As the moon and the waters are connected on many levels Genki-sama!"

"I see..." Genki gives amused eyes, before petting Juvia's head, who in turn blushes lightly. "Thank you for standing together with my comrades, I truly do appreciate it Juvia-san."

"J-Juvia is...y-yes, it is fine Genki-sama, Juvia is happy to do such things…!"

Genki lightly smiles, and then turns towards Loke, seeing that Angel had beaten him. Using Libra, and her own martial arts, the current Loke wouldn't have a chance against her, something he expected to happen.

He walks over towards Loke, and bends down in front of him, the dejected spirit looks down at the ground.

"...She is too strong for me, I couldn't...Karen..."

"Loke...listen to me. Whether you believe my words now, or later is up to you. But what I am about to say is true. About Karen...we can't change the past, what counts is what we do now, and in the future. Its up to you if you believe you did anything that caused her passing and what you need to do to get your own feelings in order. No one can tell you what you feel, only you know what's true to you. But right now, fighting Angel-san, wont solve anything. She didn't bring Ikaruga here, I believe she had nothing to do with this. What's important now is to get Aries-san back, which Angel-san has agreed to do. She's giving up the key."

Loke gained hope in his eyes, staring directly into the eyes of Genki, with tears beginning to form.

"S-Seriously..."

"Yes, she's going to give me the key, then she'll be able to choose her home now, I promise you, Loke. Aries-san, is free."

Loke broke down in tears, something Juvia watched, and truly did understand Genki now.

The kind of person he truly was, and validated her own first thoughts when she met him.

Angel also saw how she was, and how Juvia felt, causing Angel to mentally smile to herself, as an image came into her mind of a young girl, younger than her, and looked towards her, Angel herself thought "Yukino...if only I met Genki-kun sooner...I wonder where you are in this world Yukino...I wonder, what you'd think of me now..." and silently stood there, looking towards the two keys within her hand, beginning to make her mind up now.

Wendy soon finished with Ikaruga, and came over together with the others including that of Carla, watching as Loke expressed his happiness, and sadness at the same time, letting out his feelings he kept locked away.


A while later on, midnight had come and pass, with Genki sat up in bed casually reading. For some reason he wasn't aware of, Juvia managed to sneak a bed into his shared room with Wendy and Loke, and was now sleeping in the same room as the rest of them.

Genki sensed Angels presence near the door, so he silently got up, going into the living room type area, and closed the bedroom door so the others could get some sleep.

Angel then appeared at said door when Genki opened it.

"Well hello Darling, I saw your light on and thought maybe you'd be awake."

Genki showed a gentle smile on his face, and invited her inside.

They walked towards opposite chairs, sitting down and faced one another.

She then brought out Aries's key, giving it to Genki himself.

"As promised."

"Thank you, Angel-san."

Angel showed a rare compassionate smile.

"Darling, can I ask you a question, and you'd be honest with me."

"What is it?"

Angel looked out into the nights sky from the window.

"You were locked away like me, right? Put into a cage...and set yourself free."

Genki was caught off guard with that question, he never thought she'd ask something like that.

However, he remained composed as he spoke.

"Yes, you're right...so you could tell?"

"People like us, can tell of one another, even if their cages are in different areas. I am sure by now, you had some suspicions about me."

"To soar into the sky, to be free, its a prayer of someone who's been caged for a long time. So yes, I had some suspicions about you, but I don't know how or why you were caged. But its clear to me you were."

Angel nods her head, and then pulls out her Libra key, giving it an intense look.

"By the way, you asked me a question that I never really answered. So let me answer it now."

"What question was that?"

"You asked if I had any siblings...and I do, I have a sister. Maybe."

Hearing the sadness in her voice, Genki continued on with his voice displaying kindness.

"...You don't know?"

"That day...they only took me." Angel revealed with her eyes casting to the sky from the window. "She was younger than I, and was so helpless. I...shielded her, and she was...safe, maybe, I hope she got away. True be told, I don't know if she is out there, if she is alive...if she is gone."

"Why not look for her?"

Genki wondered, but Angel looks down at herself.

"I don't think she'd want a sister like me, after what choices I made."

"Maybe, she would, Angel-san. What I said to Loke, also applies to you. We can't change our pasts, but we can change our futures, nothing has been set, you are free to carve your own future Angel-san, for it to be what you desire, and be the person you want to be."

Angel let out a small giggle, she knew this was one of the reasons she really did like him.

"Maybe you're right...but, I don't deserve a good little sister. I am stained, my actions, I feel so much about my past...so, Genki-kun. I have a request for you." Angel takes her Libra key, and places it firmly in his hands, then wrapped her fingers around his, so it went around the key. "My little sister, Yukino Agria. If she's alive, then I ask you, would you give her this key for me? Libra is a good spirit, and I remember Yukino mentioning she always liked Celestial Spirits. I don't think...I have the right to face her. Also, could you not say I was the one who gave it her? Her getting it would be enough for me. Hey if she learned Celestial Spirit Magic from you...then I am sure she would have a great teacher...teaching her all about spirits, and the right way to treat them."

Genki looked down at the key, then towards Angel, who in turn looked on with a genuine smile.

"Yukino Agria...I see. Yes, I will do that Angel-san, and if she wants to learn from me, then I will teach her."

"Thank you. Also...Sorano Agria, is my name."

Angel expressed with a serene smile, placing her hands together in a gentle pose.

"...Sorano-san, its a cute name." Genki replied with a bright smile on his face, with Angel giggling to herself. "What is it?"

"Its been a long time since someone's called me that, and usually I hate going by that name. But...if you want to call me Sorano, I wouldn't mind." Angel stood up, and moved closer to Genki, bending down and kissing him on the cheek, causing her to blush. "It seems that I have fallen for a true Angel after all." Angel stands tall, and begins going towards the door. "By the way, Juvia seems to have grown some affection for you, maybe she might enjoy Fairy Tail. Unlike me, she has no criminal record."

Genki understood that Angel truly did want the best for Juvia.

"Sure, I'll make sure Juvia-san is taken care of. But what about you?"

"Me? Well, I will be travelling of course, there is a new magic I have wanted to look into."

"A new magic huh?"

Angel winked.

"Spoilers, Genki-kun." Angel giggled, then she gave a small downwards smile. "Besides, I can't return to anywhere...the kingdom is out for me, if I go back, they wont listen to me. They will lock me away, and throw away the key. And I don't want to cause you anymore trouble than I already have done. If I went with you, then they would see you as my accomplice, at least the more disturbing ones would. I know how these people work, they would try and lock you away too probably. I have no doubt we could probably run away together...but, I also know, many people depend on you here too, so I can't take you away like that."

Hearing her words, he knew Angel truly was changing, she was becoming something more than she was, experiencing a new path.

"Sorano-san... If I could convince them council idiots and the kingdom, that you didn't break out of your own accord? And that you ran because of what you just said, knowing how you would be treated? If I could get them to drop the charges?"

"Certainly...I wouldn't mind being near you, Genki-kun. But, you and I know the council is really difficult to bend and the kingdom also depends on the council too. They make up their mind, they don't budge. Say something is a flower, if they say it is a bird, then it is a bird, even if it really is a flower, they control a lot."

"Yes, you are right about that...but, I will clear your name, Sorano-san. Today...you showed others your good sides, and helped people be safe, along the way to get that Ikaruga, and how we worked together. I understand now why you ran, of course the council would come to such decisions based on what happened. I will make sure you can be free, Sorano-san, even if I have to knock sense into those council idiots, and the kingdom."

Angel cupped her hand over her mouth, and she began to shed some tears.

Someone going so far for her, caring about her, willing to help her, and believe in her, Angel didn't think she would be able to experience this ever, a sense of happiness she thought was long lost.

Genki went towards her, and gently held her hand, causing Angel to smile up towards him.

"That Karen woman. She was...horrible to her spirits...honestly, when I looked at her, I understood what you said about treating spirits right. I don't want to be like that anymore. I want...to be like the sister Yukino knew...if I could clear my sins, then maybe...just maybe, if Yukino is out there, then I could become apart of the world again, and be with her. My sister...she truly is, someone dear to me."

Genki heard her heartfelt words, and knew she would be able to clear the sins she thought she had. Though Genki would argue, that she already was putting to bed the negative feelings that she had, and was forging her way to a new Sorano, one that she believed her sister would be proud of.

"I believe you can do it, Sorano-san. Now, what are you going to do?"

"Well, it would be difficult not seeing you...say, can we meet up secretly? Until my name is cleared...I would like to do that."

"Yeah, I would like that too. Stay safe, and call me if you need me. Leave the council to me, I will make sure my points put across...trust me. Even if I have to storm the council myself."

"Ooh Genki-kun, showing such incredible sides to you, makes me feel all hot~" Angel gets close, and presses her lips to his cheek, his cheeks turning slightly red at the touch of her lips. "Thank you, for believing in me, Genki-kun."

Angel bequeathed a smile, and she left through the door.


Genki looked towards Aries, and Libra's keys, showing a serene smile on his face, as he exclaims "Open, Gate of the Ram, Aries." and soon enough, Aries came into full view, her eyes going towards Genki, who in turn held up her key with a grin growing on his face.

Without words being expressed, and seeing the joyous look on his face...

Aries broke down in happy tears, and hugged Genki tightly, who in turn hugged her right back, and stroked the back of her head, whispering soothing words.

"Genki-sama...thank you! Thank you so much!"

"Its not a problem, Aries-san."

Genki continued to smile, and saw Aries shyly continue to hug him, so he held her gently in his arms, embracing the young spirit girl, and gave her comfort, which she received in return from the young woman.


Meanwhile, Mirajane and the others, her siblings, met up within a hotel, late at night, and the S Class Mage was going over what they would be doing together.

"Are we going now big sis?"

Elfman asks, but Mirajane shakes her head.

"I have researched about it, and found that it is most likely to be asleep early in the morning. Thinking about it tactically, then we should plan our strike for when it is at its weakest, I don't want to set this thing off, and for us to be trapped or something." As she spoke, Lisanna was giving a knowing smile. "What is it?"

"Its just, I am sure if Genki-kun heard you then, he would have been very happy~"

Lisanna jibed the young girl, with Mirajane looking perplexed.

"Eh? Well, I guess he would be, but why bring it up now?"

"No reason~"

Mirajane gave a sideways glance towards Lisanna, seeing that she seemed to be particularly happy about something that Mirajane didn't fully know about yet.

"Either way, lets not lose focus. Then we can get back to Magnolia, and show everyone the power of the Strauss siblings by taking down this bastard monster."

"Yeah, lets do it big sis!"

Elfman cheered out, while Lisanna gave a serene smile on her face.

Mirajane held determination on her face, as for tomorrow, they would be going for the King of Monsters.


End chapter!

So this chapter focused upon Ikaruga being introduced, and showing her skills, though Wendy also showed hers, teaming up with Juvia, and Loke, managing to push Ikaruga a good deal. Then Angel and Genki arrived, with Genki taking on Ikaruga, Loke having a confrontation with Angel, who learned more of the truth.

Then Genki and Angel had another conversation, where she handed over the key to Aries to him, and even the Libra key to give to Yukino, believing that it would be the best thing to do. After hearing her story and seeing who she was becoming, Genki promised her that she would be free one day, even if he has to take on the council itself, so we will be seeing Angel again soon enough.

Then at the end, it seems that Mirajane and the others are going for the King of Monsters next time, so we shall see what happens there~

Well, until next time, thanks for reading!

Genki; Mirajane, Erza, Lucy, Virgo, Juvia, Cana, Aries, Ultear, Wendy, Sherria, Sorano, Jenny, Hisui, Kagura, Yukino,
