Alright here's another universe from...the multiverse! This takes place maybe a week after Raccoon City and maybe...one month after the SubJucation oneshot if your all curious. This will mainly be the Lullaby mission since I kinda...glossed over it in my main story. Probably not the level of destruction as the last oneshot but you know how my FT members are. After this, I'll get back to the COG and bring in Knightwalker! Now Sam can have someone with her sensibilities and all the fun stuff. But thinking Edolas, Nirvana, then Two COG chapters back to back. I know I change my mind alot so just put up with that. Anyway, I'm hoping Natsumi by chapter 30 or 31. Anywhooo...I always appreciate some ideas! And im pondering killing another member of FT but kinda stuck...and if anybody suggests Natsu's girls...I'll destroy you...NO...DRAGNEEL WILL!

I don't own Gears of War or Fairy Tail.


Evergreen and Bisca help out.

Universe 5276-B

Fairy Tail guild hall. June. Year 784.

"Quick! Everybody run! Erza's back!" Loki yelled in a panic as he burst through the door as sweat gleaned his face. His words incited panic within the guild as members scrambled to clean up the mess from the previous fight. Grey was righting tables and chairs, Levy was reorganizing her books, Macao and Wakaba were trying to finish off their beers, and Natsu just laughed at the whole thing while Lucy just looked on in disbelief.

"Why is everybody panicking?" the newest mage to Fairy Tail asked as the scrambling continued around her.

"That's because Erza is the strongest! She makes them obey!" cheered out Happy as Natsu chuckled nearby.

"Dammit Natsu! Help us clean up before that monster gets here!" shouted out Loki as the doors slowly opened. There stood Erza Scarlet in her Heart Kruez armor. A massive horn decorated with jewels rested behind her as the stunning red-head walked into the room.

"Loki...did you just call me a monster?" the female asked with a heavy glare as the mentioned playboy of Fairy Tail shook.

"NO! I meant that giant...thing behind you! I would never say that about you!" please buy it..." the man prayed.

"I see. Yes, I suppose that could cause confusion" she relented as Bisca spoke up.

"What is that thing?"

"Ah this? I slayed a large monster and the village was so thankful they decorated it for me. You don't mind if I leave it here, do you?" she asked the guild in question.

"I think it's cool. Proves that your super awesome!" Natsu said with a smile as he gave her a thumbs up. Seeing the pinkette smile at her, the woman's eyes soften momentarily before they re hardened. "Thank you Natsu, but I have news for the mages here. While on my travels, I heard some disturbing things about our guild... Grey! You've been streaking again! Put on some clothes! Levy! You keep forgetting to return your books to the library! Vegetter! Your dancing is disturbing to others! Cana..." she trailed off before just shaking her head. "I have nothing to say to you..." she finished before looking at the stunned Lucy.

"She said plenty already...oh crap, she's walking this way!"

"Your the newest member correct? I heard you defeated a dozen vulcans on Mt. Hokabe. Very impressive" the knight said in admiration.

"Actually...it was all Natsu...and it was only one..." Lucy trailed off.

"I see. Well I'm sure we can use that strength in the coming battle..."

"Oh yeah! Lemme introduce ya! exclaimed Natsu as he came up. "Erza, this is Luigi. She's kinda weird,but pretty cool"

"IT"S LUCY!" the blonde roared as she blushed in embarrassment. "How can he be so dense! I've said Lucy is my name like a dozen times now!"

"Regardless. I need to speak with Master. Is he here?" the red-head asked Mirajane as she attended the bar.

"I'm sorry Erza, but he left for the regular meeting this morning with the other guild masters. He left me in charge. Is something the matter?"

"Nothing myself and Fairy Tail can't handle" the woman said confidently as Lucy slowly raised a hand.

"Um...what's a regular meeting?" she asked in mild confusion as Levy came over. "I'll explain it to you, just come over to my table" the script mage instructed as the newest member followed the blunette. Seeing the blonde walk away, Erza turned to her closest friend in the guild. "Natsu, I'll need your help with this. Can I count on your support?"

"Of course! Me and Happy are always ready to help you Erza! Just say when and where!" the dragon slayer replied with a happy smile as the woman's lips curled upwards. Turning to face Grey, the man was trying to sneak out of the guild.

"Grey! Your a fairly strong mage, you will help also" she commanded with authority as the man looked back, annoyance in his eyes. "You expect me to work with that flame-brain! You must be joking!" he told her as the woman's steel eyes intensified.

"Do you have an issue with the team I've assembled?" she asked as the ice mage started to sweat in fear once more. "O..of course not...just we've never worked together before..hehe..." Grey replied as the doors to the guild slowly opened behind him.

"Man Erza, cut the guy slack will ya? He's shaking in his boots" Evergreen stated as she walked in with...a second Bisca. The whole guild froze in a state of shock. Not from seeing Evergreen, but from seeing an exact double of the gun mage sitting at her table with Levy, Lucy, and the two men of Team ShadowGear. The only notable difference was the large gun strapped to her back while a belt with several closed pouches ran around her waist.

"Evergreen? And..Bisca? But..." Erza trailed off before setting her eyes on the mage in the far corner. Seeing that it wasn't a trick, Erza did the only logical thing. Grabbing her sword, she pointed it at the imposter.

"FREEZE! I don't know what trickery this is, but this is impossible! And I know for a fact your halfway across the country with the Thunder Legion, Evergreen!" she yelled as the guild held their breath.

"Be careful Erza! They say any double you meet is evil!" shouted Happy in a panic as he flew and hid behind Natsu.

"HEY! I'M NOT EVIL!" Bisca yelled out before pinching her nose in annoyance. "I swear...that cat says those exact words in every universe..." she trailed off before looking at her friends double. "Will you please put that away? We're members of Fairy Tail just like you...just from a different universe"

"What" Erza relented as she slowly lowered her sword.

"Like she said, the two of us are from a different version of Fairy Tail. And if you promise to put the sword away, we can explain everything" Evergreen said in a placating gesture.

"Very well. But if you make any hostile actions toward my guild..."

"Jesus Scarlet, we get it.." trailed off Bisca as the two walked into the room. Approaching her double, Bisca gave a small wave to her still shocked twin. Seeing the status of the other Connell woman, Bisca let out a small sigh. "Levy, may I borrow your light pen?"

"Uh sure..." the script mage replied as the green haired beauty took the object. Walking back to the center of the hall, she started to draw circles and lines in the air as the guild looked on in curiosity. When she was done, she handed the pointer to Evergreen who started to give a lesson.

"Okay! This is your universe, 5236-B. Your part of the 5236 string which runs from A through Z. They will all be similar but different. Some will be barely noticeable, while some will shock you. For instance, in 5236-C, the only difference is Lucy has brunette hair instead of blonde, understand?" she asked as everybody nodded their heads.

"So if that's us, where are you from?..uhh..." asked Bisca as she studied her double with the rifle. "What the hell kind of gun is that? I've never seen one like it?"

"Call me Connell when both of us are in the same room, it helps keep us seperated. But the two of us are from 137-C. Our universe was the first to figure out travel between realities, thanks to Levy" she said with a soft smile.

"I..I really invented something like that?" the short woman said in amazement as Erza cleared her throat. "Not to interrupt, but why are you here?"

"Well at first we wanted to make sure Lucy was rescued by Natsu or one of you others. Once that was done, we just decided to relax for a few days till you got back. After all, this mission your about to go on will be pretty tough" Evergreen told the knight.

"How do you know that?" I haven't even told my team yet?"

"It already happened in our universe...shit..a year and a half ago? I'm not positive. I was on Galuna Island with the Thunder Legion at the time" the elegant woman said with a shrug.

"Don't look at me. All I know is what Mira and Juvia told me...damn...now what exactly happened.." Connell asked herself in annoyance as she tapped her foot, a look of concentration on her face.

"How could you not remember!" Grey asked loudly.

"Hey! It was over a year and a half ago! And I wasn't even there! So back off!" the woman raged at the man as she gave a glare that rivaled Erza's.

"Don't worry about it other Bisca! I'm sure it will be fine!" Natsu said with a smile as he looked at the two.

"Not quite. While I don't remember all the details, I do know some important ones. First of all, if you did that Everlue mission with Lucy, have Happy give her the key. He doesn't remember till halfway through the mission. Second thing I remember is Grey almost died because that demon got released..I think like a thousand people perished because of it...but that's just our universe. Most others went considerably better." the woman with a gun finished as her eyes darted around the room. hoping nobody would notice the tremble in her voice.

"T...that many people died in your universe?" Lisanna asked softly.

"Uh..yeah...sorry for being the bearer of bad news..but that's why we want to help...just to make sure it doesn't happen here" Evergreen stated as Erza nodded her head. "She's lying about something...but what? No matter. If that's true, then extra help would be welcome"

"Very well, you will accompany myself, Grey, and Natsu"

"Don't forget about Lucy!" Happy cheered as he flew the golden key over to the blonde. "Here you go Luigi!"

"You just called me by my actual name! How did you mess it up already!" she shouted in annoyance as she grabbed the key from the flying cat. Turning her attention to the two visitors, she saw them discussing mission details with Erza as the three women sat at the bar.

"You know...that Evergreen seems much nicer than the one we have..." Levy mentioned as she studied the doubles.

"What do you mean?" Lucy asked as she sat down at the table.

"Uh...Evergreen...is kinda bitchy" Bisca mentioned before shaking her head. "Dammit. I have to find out more about that gun!" she told nobody before marching across the hall. Sitting at the open seat between Cana and Connell, she turned to face the doppler.

"Okay. Spill. What kind of gun is that?'

"Hmmm? Oh this? This is my specially designed longshot with an improved scope. Natsu modified it for me after christmas a few months ago"

"Natsu did that? But he's so..so.."

"Dense?" Yeah, but ours is super smart. Like on par with Levy"

"YOUR SERIOUS!" Cana blurted out as she almost spilled her drink.

"YUP! But hey, we have to find a place to sleep...I'm kinda beat" Connell replied as Mira just looked at her oddly.

"But it's only three in the afternoon? How could you be tired now?'

"For us, it's almost 2:00 a.m. back in one thirty seven. Each universe has its own timeline, including time of day. So while I'm sure you have plenty of questions, we do need to rest" Evergreen replied before standing up. "Lets go Bisca, we can crash in my room at Fairy Hills" she told her friend before walking out of the hall, leaving the confused mages in their wake.

"That...was confusing..." Natsu muttered as he sat next to Erza.

"Agreed. For starters, it's early June while they said Christmas was only a few months ago. I guess they do have a different timeline. But my main concern is that I believe they are hiding something"

"Maybe they're just worried something similar will happen to Grey? I mean, they said he almost died..." Lisanna said softly as she set down a strawberry cheesecake for Erza. Taking a bite of the heavenly dessert, the woman was silent for a few moments before speaking once more. "Perhaps, but I'm sure we can ask them more tomorrow on the train"

"Ugghhh...cant' we just walk? You know I hate those death machines" Natsu pouted at the coming pain of transportation.

"You know we can't. It would take us the whole day or longer. I'll just make sure to ease your suffering" the red-head admitted before taking another bite.

"I'm curious why my double was fighting alongside a member of Phantom Lord? Juvia is a pretty unique name and the only one I know of is one of the element four?"

"We can find out tomorrow. Now I must go home and prepare. Make sure to have the others at the train station by nine o'clock" the S-class mage instructed Natsu as he snapped off a salute with Happy. Chuckling lightly, the woman left as she headed toward her dorm. "I wonder if my double was brave enough to ask him out? Natsu always fills my heart with such joy..." the female told herself as she walked up the path...


The next morning...

"Gah! Where are they! It's already 8:45! This is why you can't rely on women to be on time for anything..." Grey muttered as Lucy scowled at the mage. She had been instructed to keep the two men from fighting, and while the two had argued before, She had managed to calm them down as they stood at opposite ends of the platform.

"You do realize I'm standing right here right? I can hear everything your saying" Lucy mentioned as the man grumbled.

"So what? All women are the same. They can't show up on time for anything" he ranted, not seeing Erza along with Bisca and Evergreen approaching from behind. Clasping a gauntleted hand on his shoulder, the woman gave a hard squeeze.

"By my understanding...Grey. We are still on time for the train.." Erza said coldly as the male gulped in fear. Turning to face them, he could see Happy and Natsu snickering at his misfortune as three angry females looked down at him.

"Your lucky we need to get going otherwise we would take turns beating you" Bisca hissed out as Natsu started laughing out loud. "Wow! I never knew you two could be this scary! Seeing Grey like this just made my day!"

"But Natsu. You still need to get on the train"

"Oh crap...I forgot..." he said in a slight shudder.

"Come on big guy. Your not gonna let a train beat you...unless you wanna prove to Grey your a little bitch?" Bisca asked with a smirk.

"NO WAY! I"LL BEAT THAT TRAIN!" Natsu roared out before running onto the passenger car.

"Well you heard him, lets go" Erza commanded as the rest of the mages climbed on board, Grey trying to stay away from the frightening females. Minutes later, the group was seated as the train started to move. Almost instantly, Natsu turned green as he sat next to Erza. Letting out a heavy sigh, the woman patted her lap as the dragon slayer rested his head on top of her shapely legs. Sighing at the feeling, Natsu tried to sleep as the turbulence in his stomach eased.

"You know...I always forget Natsu has motion sickness" Evergreen commented as she sat next to Bisca, the woman sitting next to Grey. Lucy was on the other side of Natsu, holding Happy as she studied these other mages.

"Does your Natsu not get sick on transportation?' Erza asked while stroking the pinkette's hair.

"Nope. He even owns his own truck for driving around. Loves that damn thing" the brunette finished.

"L...l..lucky b..bastard..." Natsu stuttered out as he rested his head.

"Yeah...lucky..." Bisca trailed off, the sorrow apparent in her eyes. This was not missed by Lucy or Erza, the two catching the underlying meaning. "I suppose know is the time to start asking some important questions"

"Bisca. Evergreen...why did you lie yesterday? You said over a thousand people died on this job, but your leaving details out"

"Damn...was hoping you'd miss that" she trailed off as Grey looked at her in concern.

"What is she talking about?'"

"Basically, we didn't want to alarm the guild of this reality. We figured if we just said that many died, you would be more willing to accept our help" Bisca finished as she rested her rifle between her legs.

"Well, we aren't in the hall right now, so telling us what happens could be very helpful" Lucy said while Happy listened in attentiveness.

"Fine. But please remember this is what Mira and Juvia told me when we got back from Galuna. Basically, the dark guild Eisenwald gets a hold of the death magic, Lullaby, which is a demon of Zeref. Hearing one song can kill the listener instantly. While some things are different across the realities like the teams or the strength of the mages, one thing is constant"

"What would that be?" asked the woman in armor.

"They always target the guild masters in Clover. The whole attack at the Kunagi train station is just a ploy. But if we try to head them off toward Clover, they'll just activate it in Oshibana and kill everyone there instead. It's kind of annoying since this is one of those things that need to happen in a certain way" Evergreen finished as she rested her head against her palm in annoyance.

"You two seem awfully calm for the bombshell you just dropped" Grey asked the two women.

"I agree. These mages sound extremely dangerous"

"To be honest, we've faced alot worse than some crappy dark mages" Bisca retorted while she clutched her rifle, the knuckles turning white as she remembered the horror of Raccoon City. Feeling a comforting hand on her shoulder, Bisca glanced to see Evergreen give a comforting smile. "You okay? I heard that place was pretty awful"

"Yeah...yeah...I'm good. Just can still hear them...you know? Still having some bad dreams about it...and the other place before that"

"It's okay, Bisca. We all have our own nightmares"

"Bisca? Evergreen? Are you two alright?" Happy asked as he studied the two females.

"I'm fine Happy, thanks for asking" she smiled lightly at him, forcing the fake emotions toward the little cat. Lucy could see the strain on the woman's face, the pain behind the eyes. Leaning forward, she rested a comforting hand on Bisca's knee. "It might help to talk about it...if you want' the blonde asked with a reassuring smile.

"It couldn't hurt, Bisca. You were tossing around alot last night. And we still have several hours to go"

Letting out a deep sigh, Bisca looked at all the mages as they gave their upmost attention. "A little over a week ago, myself, Grey, Sam, and Natsu portalled to this city being over-run with the living dead. We barely made it in time to save the last tatters of the police force there. And there were thousands of them. But when Grey made an ice wall, it gave them a fighting chance. He stayed there with Sam and the officers while I went with Natsu and some of the natives of that city. The smell of fires and rotting bodies was everywhere...and the moaning...I actually saw some people getting eaten alive..."

"That's...horrible..." Erza whispered.

"It was...but I bet you've never seen a zombified elephant..or other animals trying to eat you? Or how about man sized amphibians that have claws with the capability of piercing steel? Then there was that nemesis thing...terrifying. Absolutely terrifying. But shit, Grey had to fight off these wall crawling skinless things and some fucking giant leech in a sewer..."

"And you did this last week?" The ice mage asked in a horrified stupor. "Seriously! The living dead! And her version of me fought them!"

"Yeah...by the time the military took back control and declared Raccoon City safe, almost thirty thousand had perished from the undead hordes" Letting out a heavy sigh, Bisca continued once more. "Just so you know...my universe is the one that cleans up the messes, the really bad shit out there. While my friends have seen horrors and devastation you can hardly fathom, we try to do good and help those that need it. So even though half that city died...the other half lived because we helped" she finished before closing her eyes and leaning her head against Evergreen's shoulder. "Wake me up when we get there. And don't forget Natsu on the train" she mumbled before falling asleep within minutes.

"She...really fought those kind of monsters?" Lucy squeaked out as she studied the sleeping woman, the speeding country side rushing by the window.

"Yes. But then the horrors Natsu has faced with his squad and his girlfriends make that seem like child's play"

"Their Natsu has faced worse than shambling, walking corpse's!? I mean, I've seen a few movies with them, but they really held no interest to me...WAIT! GIRLFRIEND"S!" Erza screamed internally as her eyes shot open. "Did you say girlfriends!? As in more than one?"

"Sure did!" Evergreen replied with a cheeky smile, the mood lightening as Natsu looked on in shock. "Oh crap! Erza's gonna kill me because of this other Natsu..."

"H..how many does he have?" Lucy asked with a stutter. "I know we just met, but I have to admit Natsu is kinda...cute...he just doesn't seem to care about the female body at all..."

"Six. He has six girlfriends. Two of them not even from our home universe. But he might have another two or three in the next month or so"

"How...HOW THE HELL DID THIS DUMBASS GET SIX GIRLFRIENDS! AND GET EVEN MORE INTERESTED!" Grey roared as Bisca grumbled. "Grey should be quiet before I give him to Master Bob of Blue Pegasus for a weekend..." the green haired woman trailed off, her eyes still closed as she leaned against Evergreen.

"Oh shit! Would she actually do that? I mean...that guy...prefers men too...no way in hell I'll risk that..." the black haired teen concluded as he calmed down, mumbling out a small apology as the other women gave him a steady glare.

"Anyway, before I was interrupted. Dragneel does have six women in his life. I'd tell you now, but I don't want you getting distracted in the upcoming fight"

"That does make sense...but would you be willing to talk more about it after we defeat these dark mages?"

"Sure. That's for the best anyway. But getting off of this topic, do any of you have other questions?"

"Um...what am I like?' Lucy asked nervously, as Happy slept on her lap.

"Well...you fight all the time with Sam. She's your rival in the guild and your responsible for almost a third of the guild hall fights. Um...you carry a large pistol and can summon three of your spirits at once...four if your really desperate. And you own your own apartment building"

"No way...I'm that strong? And I have a rival?"

"Sure do! It's always a blast to see how you two try to beat each other down" Evergreen said with a chuckle.

"Why would my double allow such fighting in the guild? They should be punished for breaking the rules" Erza exclaimed, the woman forgetting to comfort Natsu before the man let out a small groan.

"Honestly? She doesn't care just as long as nobody attacks her or ruins her cheesecake. She's realized life is too short to get worked up about a simple guild fight. Plus...she ends up joining in most of the time anyway when she fights with Mira"

"I see..." the red head trailed off, deep in thought. "Their reality sounds quite different. Not including the fact that Bisca has fought actual monsters that should be fiction, but their Lucy sounds quite formidable. Then there is the fact Natsu has somehow managed to date six women? How would that even work?"

"What about me? What am I like?" the ice mage asked.

'Pretty much the same. Although you do get along better with Natsu in my reality"

"Why the hell would I do that? I can barely stand being this close to him" Grey muttered as he crossed his arms over his chest in annoyance.

"Eh. They have more of a brother/ rival thing. Sure they fight whenever, but they will have each others back in a heartbeat if the situation calls for it. They do prank each other alot though..." Evergreen pondered before shaking her head. "Anyway, we should go over the plan one more time" the brunette finished as the mages started giving suggestions on ways to prepare for the coming battle.


Two hours later... Kunagi Train Station.

The six mages stepped of the train into chaos as several civilians ran from the building. Numerous bodies laid in the street, some covered in horrible wounds and blood. Spotting one of the train employee's running toward them, Erza could see the absolute terror in the man's eyes. Tripping over the body of a dead child, the mages could see the blood covering the man.

"RUN! DARK MAGES ARE KILLING EVERYBODY!" he screamed in panic before lifting himself to his feet. Running down the street, he left the mages as anger washed over their faces with the exception of Lucy, the blonde displaying fear as she looked at the fallen.

"H...how could they do this to innocent people..." she trailed off as a single tear slid down her face.

"I don't know Luce...but we will give them the ass-kicking of a life time!" Roared Natsu as his team nodded in agreement.

"Indeed. They will serve life sentences for this" Erza agreed as she started marching up the steps to the train station, by-passing a man that had been sliced in half. "How!? How could this have happened? I've never seen such violence since the Tower of Heaven..."

"You think your carrying out justice by throwing them in prison? No...these assholes are gonna die..." Bisca replied as they came to a corridor. Ignoring the shocked looks of the others at her words, they came upon a carnal house. Several Rune Knights were scattered about, the smell of blood, shit, and fear permeating the air. Some had been decapitated, other's missing limbs as their blood covered the floor. Hearing the agonizing groan from further up the hall, Evergreen hurried forward. Crouching down near the man, she could tell he didn't have long for this world. His stomach had been ripped open, almost vertically as his intestines and entrails spilled out. Gripping his hand, Evergreen gave a hard squeeze as the soldier slowly opened his eyes. "W...what a lucky day...to...to..to see an angel" his said hoarsely as his chest gave one last shudder. Closing his eyes, Evergreen ignored the blood on her hands as she looked at Bisca with steel in her eyes. "Full kill...no survivors" she stated as Bisca nodded her head in complete agreement.

"You can't do that! Killing is wrong!" shouted Grey as he looked at the two women. His words had barely left his throat before Bisca was on him, holding him by the scruff of his collar as her eyes bored into the man. "Death...her eyes are like DEATH!"

"Just so you know...Grey...my Fairy Tail kills it's enemies. This kind of shit..is inexcusable! All these dead people had friends...family. And that was all taken away by some murderous mages that are plotting to kill Makarov and the other guild masters! Do you think they care about your morals? Or you life!? They will KILL you the first chance they get! Now me and Ever are gonna go in there and bring the hurt. If you want to stand aside, that's fine because I don't care. But if you all plan to help, you better be prepared. These aren't some shitty bandits on a mountain path. These are fuckers that are messing with a demon from the book of Zeref! And you've all seen what they've done" she finished before unleashing the man. Gasping for air, he looked upon the two women as they started to walk down the body strewn hallway, stepping over the bloody bodies. Looking over her shoulder, Bisca locked eyes with the scarlet knight. "If your not comfortable with killing, just knock them out. I don't need you blaming me for blood on your hands" she voiced coldly before turning the corner.

"What should we do, Erza?" asked Natsu as he covered Happy's eyes, the poor cat shivering from the slaughter in the hall. Lucy was threatening to spill tears, but tried to remain strong for her friends. "This is horrible..."

"We will assist them. However...if your life is threatened, I'd rather you protect it than these vile men. Understood?" the woman instructed as she re-equipped a sword. Moving down the hall, they turned the corner to see Evergreen and Bisca waiting at the main door.

"Done with your little meeting?" the brunette asked.

"Yes. We will attempt to capture as many as possible. I hope you will do the same"

"Pssh. Not fucking likely! Hey Lucy! Make sure Taurus is out! Probably your best bet in there!"

"Right!"

"Now let's get ready to rock!" Bisca yelled out as she kicked the door open. Bursting into the room, the six mages and small cat took in the sight of dozens of dark mages. Standing in the back was a man with spiky white hair who was carrying a large scythe. His bare torso was covered with purple tattoos while he wore simple dark pants.

'What's this? Some fairy flies dare to disturb us?" he mentioned with a sneer as many of the males eyed up the supple curves of the women.

"Oh yeah...I'm gonna enjoy fucking those bitches' one dark mage said out loud.

"I bet I can beat that green-haired whore first. Make her choke on my dick" another replied with a snicker. Completely ignoring the comments as Erza looked on in rage at the vile suggestions, Bisca turned to Evergreen.

"So that's Erigor? Mira was right. He does look like a limp-dicked clown fucker"

"Right? I thought he was supposed to be some super deadly assassin? Oh well" Evergreen mentioned in disappointment.

Letting out an audible growl, Erigor snapped his weapon forward. "Kill the two males! The first ones to capture the women get to rape them! Kageyama! Head to the the destination and activate Lullaby! Make this city suffer for not knowing misery!" the leader screamed out as the dark mages surged forward. Erigor had flown out a nearby window, leaving his pawns to fight as Kageyama disappeared down a side hallway.

"GREY! NATSU! Go after him! Make sure he doesn't activate Lullaby!" Erza yelled out as she re-equipped into her purgatory armor, her morningstar clasped in a tight fist. Rushing forward, she landed a heavy blow to one of the mages. With a sickening crunch, the weapon cracked and broke several ribs as the victim went flying. Ducking under a tendril of dark smoke, she blocked the attack. Spinning away, she ran forward and clobbered the magic user. "Damn! I didn't realize these mages were this strong! I can feel some of them at least being on Grey's level...and that Erigor was easily on par with Natsu" she concluded before ducking under a sword swing.

"Don't bother! It's just a diversion anyway!" Evergreen yelled out as a vile mage leapt at her. "Stone Gaze!" she shouted out as her eyes locked onto her target. Turning to stone instantly, the petrified man crashed into the ground before breaking apart. The head rolling free, it came to a rest near Natsu's feet. Ignoring the fact that his parallel family member just killed someone, Natsu gathered flames in his hands.

"Fire Dragon's Brilliant Flames!" he shouted out as he unleashed the attack at a knot of mages, knocking them unconscious.

"That's right Natsu! Beat up these bad guys!" cheered Happy from the sidelines as Grey just scoffed. Ducking under a flying mage courtesy of Erza, the ice mage readied his own magic. 'Ice Make: CANNON!" the dark haired male yelled over the din of fighting. Bowling over three mages, they collided with others as Evergreen continued to turn multiple men into stone statues.

"Open Gate of the Golden Bull! Taurus!" Lucy shouted over the clamor as the magical bull appeared.

"Wow miss Luuuuooocy! Your breasts are very perky today!" Letting out an annoyed sigh, the blonde just pointed at the large battle before her. "Can you please just help my friends stop these bad guys"

"Of coourrseee!" the bull exclaimed before entering the fray, knocking back several of the dark mages with his large axe.

"Dammit, there are too many!" Erza relented as she started to fall back. Blocking a strike from a man with an axe, she managed to kick him away before retreating back to her friends. Ducking under a blast of lighting magic, she started to realize the precarious position they were in. Standing next to Natsu, she tried to control her breathing as over forty of the vile murderers regrouped before them. Looking to her left and right, she could see light sheen's of sweat on her friends faces. "This is bad. I didn't expect them to be this strong..." the knight admitted to herself before she looked at the two visitors. "They're completely calm...and Bisca hasn't done a single thing. Only Evergreen has...and that was killing that first mage and turning more to stone"

"They're getting tired men! Let's make these women scream!" the lead mage yelled out as they all gathered in a large group.

"Man...you guys are really stupid..." Bisca muttered as she stood there with her hands empty.

"What was that you bitch!?"

"I said...YOU"RE ALL GONNA DIE! MAGICAL MULCHER!" the green haired woman yelled out as an exact copy of a Seran machine gun appeared in her hands. Not wasting a second more, she pulled down on the magical trigger as stabbing bursts of light shot forth. The high pitch whine even matched the physical copy used by Echo squad on occasion. When the screaming started, Bisca could only grin in satisfaction as the magical bullets tore through bodies. Marching forward as she gripped the weapon with two hands, she tacked the gunfire back and forth as men screamed and died. Blood spilled and bone was smashed and splintered. Crying out at the slaughter befalling them, several of the vile men turned and ran, trying to find safety. One unfortunate soul didn't even have the chance to make two steps before his head burst open, spilling brain matter against his comrade. That man didn't last much longer either, a dozen bursts of green light cutting him in half at the waist line as he died a slow, horrible death.

"RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!" a swarthy mage screamed in panic before a series of magical bullets smashed into his groin, eliciting howls of agony. Falling to his knees, the man tried to clutch the wound before another careened into his temple. The mage was dead even before he hit the ground.

"OH NO YOU DON"T!" she screamed before cutting down a trio of men, the magical rounds smashing through their backs before bursting out of their chests in a crimson display of death. Turning her aim to the left, she centered on the last five mages as they cowered in fear. A renewed burst of magical gunfire reduced them to a tattered pile of broken bodies and useless meat as Bisca finally dis-spelled the weapon. Grasping her knees as she leaned forward, the woman took in deep lungfuls of air as sweat poured down her face.

"H..Holy shit...she just killed almost a whole dark guild by herself..." whispered Natsu as Erza marched up, anger written on her face.

"Was that completely unnecessary! You could have tried to spare some of them!" the red head yelled as Bisca slowly stood up.

"Piss off, Erza. You were having trouble with barely twenty. What would've happened if you all had been defeated..oh yeah! You and Lucy would've been their new fuck toys!" She yelled back as she jabbed a finger into the woman's breatsplate. Leveling her eyes with Erza's, Bisca continued her rant. "I don't fucking care if you approve or not with my methods! The way I see it, those assholes were a threat that needed killing! And if you knew of the absolute nightmares out in the multiverse, you would do the same!"

Taking a deep breath as she tried to control her temper, Bisca closed her eyes as her anger started to subside. Opening them once more, she saw the nervous looks on all of her companions faces. Realizing she had maybe gone to far, she turned to face them equally. "I'm sorry for yelling, but I'm here to make sure innocent people stay alive. Obviously we weren't completely successful as evidenced by the bodies outside"

"W...what about the ones that got turned into statues?" Lucy asked nervously, standing near Natsu for comfort.

"They're still alive for now. Would it ease your conscience to capture them?" asked Evergreen as she turned to the knight.

"Yes..." the female replied as she brought forth many magical restraints. In a burst of light, seven of the men were released from the stone. They barely had time to recover however as the sword wielder quickly restrained them. Within two minutes, they were all in cuffs while their legs and arms were tied by heavy rope.

"What would cause Bisca to kill like that? I understand she fought some deadly monsters and her universe went badly... But ours is such a friendly, nice woman..."

"Let's move. We've wasted enough time on these assholes anyway" Evergreen commented as the group simply agreed with the two murderous females. Increasing his pace, Natsu sidled up to Lucy as Happy sat on his shoulder, clinging to the man's scarf. "You okay, Luce? he asked in concern as he studied the nervous blonde.

"I..I think so. I just never expected people to be this evil. I know Bora and his men were bad, but you beat them so easily once we got the ship to stop moving. I just thought that it would always be like that. But seeing what they did to those Rune Knights and some of those civilians..."

"Don't worry, Lucy. I'll make sure to beat those bad guys no problem!" he said with a smile and a thumbs up to his friend. Smiling at his kind nature, she felt her emotions calm as the group pushed open the doors to the station. Stepping outside, they took in the sight of the massive wind barrier. The howling storm presented no way through as the cyclone of air moved at speeds in excess of two hundred miles per hour.

"Dammit! This is why I hate wind mages! Happy! Let's go and get that Eargot guy!" Natsu commanded as the little cat lifted Natsu into the air. Flying upwards, they duo escaped the giant funnel over the top before disappearing from sight.

"See? This is the problem with taking prisoners. Now we have Natsu flying off ahead without support while we're stuck here!" Bisca exclaimed before looking at Erza. "I don't suppose you have a way to get through this shit? That last attack of mine drained me pretty good"

"No. And even if I managed to get through, that would still leave all of you trapped. And just so you know, once this is over, you and me will have a discussion about what you did back there" she glared at the gun mage.

"That's fine" she responded with a wave of her hand as Grey studied the wall of wind.

"I could try freezing it?"

"You'd just waste your magic...Hey Lucy?' Did you make a contract with that spirit last night?" Evergreen asked the celestial mage.

"Oh yeah! Why didn't I think of that!"

Snatching the required key from her belt, Lucy stabbed it upward into the air. "OPEN! Gate of the Virgin! Virgo!" In a flash of light, an attractive woman with pink hair and wearing a maid's outfit appeared before the summoner.

"How can I help you, Princess?"

"Virgo. Can you dig a tunnel under this wind wall? We need to stop that bud guy!"

"Of course princess. Just give me a moment" the spirit replied before starting to carve out a walkable tunnel.

"Lucy...do you make her call you that?" asked Grey as he started to peel of his shirt.

"Not exactly...it was that or mistress..." the blonde trailed off as she looked away from the stripping man.

"Dammit Fullbuster! Put your clothes back on!" Evergreen raged as the man started to unbutton his pants.

"AHHHH! When did that even happen!" he shouted in panic as he re-dressed himself.

"You know...I'm really glad we cured our Grey of that habit" mentioned Bisca as the celestial spirit rose from the ground.

"All done, Princess! Is there anything else you need?"

"No thank you Virgo. Thank you for the help" Lucy said with a smile as the maid disappeared in a flash of light.

"Let's go! Natsu might need our help!" Erza commanded with authority as the mages ran through the short tunnel. Emerging through the other side moments later, the group came upon a deserted street as the citizens had fled the area following the attack from Eisenwald. Spotting an abandoned Magical four-wheeler, Erza hopped into the drivers seat as Evergreen slid into the passenger. Piling into the back, the other three mages barely had time to seat themselves before Erza took off in the direction of Natsu.


Guild Master's Meeting Hall.

"Master Makarov?" the attendant asked as he approached the inebriated guild master of Fairy Tail.

"Yes?" he slurred slightly as he sat near Yajima and master Bob, the three of them enjoying their friendship of many years.

"You have a call from your guild. A miss Mirajane I believe"

"Mira? Oh she's a cutie! And her boobs are so bouncy!" the man commented as he took the communication lacrima. Powering it up, an image of the beautiful Strauss woman appeared.

"Master! I have great news! Erza has formed a team with Natsu, Grey, and Lucy! Not only that, but a parallel version of Bisca and Evergreen showed up from another universe! I think it's safe to say that they just formed the strongest team in Fairy Tail!" she said happily as the old masters heart panicked. "Erza and Natsu are bad enough by themselves! But teamed up with Grey? and the new girl! Plus a double of Bisca and Evergreen if her words are true! The destruction will be enormous!" he concluded in a panic as he looked back at the tiny image.

"Is there anything else?"

"Yes! They've decided to take on Eisenwald to stop a demon! Anyway, I thought you should know! Bye master! Enjoy the rest of your meeting!" she said with a cheer before the connection severed.

"I'm ruined...those mages will destroy everything..." he whispered in a horrified stupor as his buzz from drinking was completely forgotten.


Clover Canyon...

"Heh. Those mages wont stand a chance against my guild. I'm sure those girls are getting gang-fucked right now. But still...had to use precautions and erect that wind wall just in case.." Erigor trialed off as he flew through the sky with Lullaby in his hand. Looking down, he flew above the trail tracks as he started to close in on the railway bridge that spanned the large canyon. "Just a few more minutes and those old fools will all die" he thought with a silent chuckle. So caught up in his thoughts, the assassin had no warning as a heavy blow landed in the middle of his back. Colliding with the ground in a large kick up of dust and gravel, Erigor shook his head as he grabbed his scythe. "Who the fuck...dares to strike me!" he shouted while bringing himself up. Turning in a flash, he hoped to cleave his adversary in two. Seeing nobody there, he looked up to see that pink haired fairy floating in the sky, supported by a small...cat?

"That was a stupid mistake..." he replied darkly as he studied the fire mage. Seeing the man pick at his ear, he couldn't believe how relaxed this guy was.

"I doubt it Earguy. I'm here to beat ya!" Natsu told the man before him in complete confidence. Ignoring the insult, Erigor glared at the soon to be dead man.

"Big words from somebody who abandoned his friends. Heh. I bet my men are just ravishing those women of yours...making them scream as the take multiple shafts of meat..."

"Er...no...Bisca and Evergreen...kinda killed most of your men. I think only seven are still alive...Not sure how I feel about it to be honest. But enough of this! LET'S FIGHT!" Natsu yelled as he shot several balls of fire at his enemy. Dodging to the side, Erigor used this deadly weapon to release several slices of deadly air magic into the sky. Maneuvering through the sky, Happy managed to dodge most, but still Natsu took a slice along his left bicep as some of his flesh tore under the assault.

"You'll pay for that!" the pinkette yelled hotly as he started to gather flames with his two open palms. Waiting as his magic grew, Natsu combined the two orbs of fire magic over his head as the flames doubled in size. "FIRE DRAGON"S BRILLIANT FLAME!" he shouted out as he released the attack at Erigor. With only seconds to spare. the man activated his 'Wind Mail' The effect was instantaneous as the flames were canceled out, the strength of the dark mage apparent. Trying to keep his advantage, Natsu surged forward as his little friend kept him aloft. Landing nearby, Natsu closed the distance as Erigor came to a landing on the nearby tracks. "Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!" the pinkette yelled out as the flame coated appendage collided with the wind armor. Seeing some of the magic dispel, Natsu smirked momentarily before the curved blade reached for his head. Leaning backwards, the deadly weapon missed him by inches. Landing back on his palms, Natsu snapped a fire coated foot at his enemy.

'TCH! You can't hope to defeat me!" Erigor yelled as he brought the scythe down into the ground. Seeing the light mage roll to the side as the ground cracked underneath his assault, Erigor's rage grew. Trying to keep the fire mage off balance, he sent several more blasts of deadly wind in the pinkette's direction. Watching the man dodge, Erigor ran up as he swung his weapon at the dragon slayers exposed stomach. Erigor grinned maliciously as his eyes locked with Natsu's, knowing he had won. "Gotcha"

The sharpened end of the blade plunged into Natsu's left abdominal's, pushing out of his back as Natsu looked down at the weapon in horror. "No...I still have to find Igneel...and to tell Erza..." he trailed off as the dark mage pulled the scythe free.

"Natsu!" yelled out Happy as he came flying forward, trying to rescue his father as the man fell to his knees, clutching the ghastly wound.

"Annoying fucking cat" Erigor said simply as he blasted the tiny animal away, knocking the magical creature out in one blow. Turning back to his target, he could still be seen kneeling in the middle of the tracks as he stemmed the bleeding.

"My my my...you fairy trash really aren't that strong are you?" he mocked as he rested the scythe on his shoulder.

"Fuck you..." Natsu replied with hate in his eyes as he glared up at Erigor. "I have to do it! Igneel never said to unless my life was in danger and this looks pretty bad!" he thought while starting to build up some magic in his blood covered hands.

"Oh? Are you trying to build up some sort of last ditch effort to take me down? Face it, you lost" he teased with an evil smirk. Ignoring the taunts from the vile mage, Natsu concentrated his fire. Activating it barely a second later, it shot through the gaping wound in his left side as the cauterizing fire halted the massive bleeding. Gritting his teeth at the unbearable pain he was in, Natsu rolled to the side as Erigor swung down at him.

"GRRRRRR! Your like a fucking cockroach!" he yelled as the fire mage ran and scooped up his little companion. Creating some distance between the two, Natsu eyed his opponent with...hate. "This guy actually tried to kill me! And he must've ordered his friends to hurt all those people back in town. Well no more! I'm putting everything into this last attack!"

Billowing his chest while his cheeks bulged, Erigor could only look on in confusion.

"What the hell is he doing?" he muttered to himself as his 'Wind Mail' continued to protect him.

"FIRE DRAGON"S ROAR!" Natsu bellowed as the cone of fire shot forth. Slamming into Erigor, the intense flames ate away at his magical armor in mere moments. Feeling the painful burning sensation, the dark mage screamed as the flames washed over him. Several first and second degree burns covered his body as the man dropped his scythe. Falling backwards, the man lay still as he gasped for air. "No...NO! THIS CANNOT BE!" his internal mind raged.

"Hey little buddy..I got him" Natus told Happy as the little cat stirred.

"Really?" the blue furball asked weakly as Natsu collapsed onto his knees.

"Sure did! Good thing too, because I'm completely out of magic" he replied with a sheepish smile.

"That's very...unfortunate for you" Erigor muttered as he slowly stood up. Not bothering with any fancy moves, the man simply grabbed his deadly weapon as he started to run across the dusty ground.

"THIS IS YOUR END!" the man screamed as his wounds yelled for mercy, the grim reapers blade held above his head as the two members of Fairy Tail looked on in horrible realization. Natsu didn't even hear the rumbling of a nearby vehicle as his killer momentarily lost his concentration.

Pointing her longshot out the window as the rifle practically pressed against Lucy's large endowments, Bisca pulled the trigger before Erza could even bring he magical vehicle to stop. The report filled the cabin, ringing the mages ears as the single brass cartridge spun through the air. The small explosion of gunpowder and gases ignited the deadly bullet as it shot through the barrel and crossing the distance in the blink of an eye. Slamming into the assassin's shoulder in a burst of shattered bone, torn muscle,and bursting blood, the bullet erupted out of the man's back.

It took a few moments for Natsu to realize that he was still alive as the blood splatter on his face didn't come from him. Looking at his foe, he could see him clutching the horrible mess of ruin as the deadly weapon laid forgotten.

"Natsu! Are you alright!?"" Erza asked as she came running up. Seeing the horrible state he was in, Natsu looked up at the beautiful red-head. "She's such an angel..." he thought before promptly passing out, his body collapsing onto the hard ground. Scrambling to hold the man of her secret affections, Erza held him close. Finally feeling a heart-beat, she relaxed momentarily.

"He's hurt so bad..." Lucy commented as she looked down at the horrible scar that now adorned his left side.

"Looks like he burned it shut. Our's has done that on multiple occasion's" Bisca commented as Erigor started to laugh.

"Your concerned over that fucking weakling? You should've just let me kill him. Sure his magic was greater than mine, but that blade to the gut almost did him in. Was gonna take his head for a trophy...stick it on a pike outside my guild hall" he chuckled as Grey started to gather magic in his hands.

"You shut your mouth! Nobody threatens my family like that!" he yelled as he prepared to attack. Feeling a hand on his shoulder, he could see Bisca looking at him. "I got this Grey...no need to bloody your hands" she said softly before handing him the portal gun. "Grab that damn flute and type in 000-A. Make sure to press this button to activate" she indicated before a stern look overcame her eyes. "DO. NOT. GO. THROUGH...understand?'

"Yeah..." he replied as he walked over and grabbed the flute. Doing as she instucted, the ice mage input the co-ordinates as a shimmering blue portal appeared. Tossing the flute through, it snapped shut moments later.

"What did you just do!?" the man yelled in fury as he tried to reach his weapon despite his loss of movement in his arm.

"That's the least of your worries" Bisca commented before turning to her friend. "Hey Ever? What should we do with this guy?'

"He's a wind mage right? Well let's help him fly" the brunette replied with a smirk.

"Hehe. Gotcha" Grabbing the defeated mage by the hair, she started to pull him toward the railway bridge despite his protests. Not caring that his body was being cut up and bruised by the many rocks and gravel, the two sat him up as they came to an opening between the tresses.

"What are you doing?" Erigor asked as fear crept into his voice.

"Like I said, we're gonna help you fly. Now hold still" Evergreen commanded as she used her stone magic to turn his body to the material of the earth. Leaving the head alone, the disgusting man tried to struggle.

"PLEASE! MERCY!" he begged as the man pleaded for his life.

"Hmmmm...NOPE! Now enjoy your flight to hell!" Bisca replied with a smile as she kicked his petrified body over the edge.

"NOOOOOOOoooooooo..." the voice trailed off as the man plummeted to his death. Letting out a low whistle, Evergreen peered over the side. "How deep is this canyon again?"

"I dunno? Half a mile or something?" she replied as the duo walked back to the rest of the group.

"Why...why did you kill him? He was defenseless" Erza asked as she cradled Natsu's head in her lap.

"Because if we were even two seconds later, your friend Natsu here would be dead and that guy would be on his way to kill the masters with nobody to stop him. And just so you know, in other realities where he's arrested? He escapes prison. Usually kills a dozen of so guards. Then he goes on a murder and raping spree across the country side as he rebuilds his reputation. Killing him now saves a few dozen lives of innocent people. And don't forget all the lives lost earlier today"

"But...Fairy Tail is supposed to bring people into the light and do the right thing..." the red-head said softly before feeling a warm hand on her shoulder. Looking up, she finally got a glimpse into Bisca's soul...and it scared her. "What kind of life has she lived to make her like this?"

"I want you all to know, in my universe dark mages are far more evil. We've had to adapt to make sure the innocent and our friends and loved ones stay alive. Right now, the double of you, Lucy, Cana, and Levy are tracking down a dark guild that profits from the sex trafficking of children. I seriously doubt those four will leave a single one of those monsters alive. So what would be better? Sparing those men? Or making sure those children are safe?"

"The children..."Lucy replied as she looked at the two in a new light. "I've never even heard of such a thing as sex-trafficking except in some of the corrupt cities of Bosco!"

"That's right. But come on. We should really get Natsu some help" Evergreen said with a no nonsense tone as the blonde nodded her head. Rushing over to Erza's side, the two women helped each other lift him into the magical vehicle.

"Uh...here's your...gun back" Grey mentioned as he handed it back to Bisca who promptly placed it into a side pouch on her right side.

"Thanks"

"So..uh..where did that portal go?"

"Black hole universe. That flute is never gonna be a threat again" Evergreen commented as she climbed into the drivers seat, plugging the SE onto her arm.

"Really!? A fucking black hole!?" he yelled while Bisca picked up the very groggy Happy.

"Yup! It's where we send alot of stuff and bad guys!" the green haired woman replied as she took her seat next to the brunette. Sighing in defeat, Grey climbed into the back as he sat across from his badly wounded rival. The man was still being held by the two women, trying to keep him comfortable. "We...we really almost lost him today...if those two hadn't shown up..I'd hate to think what would have happened...even if he is a dumbass..." the ice mage trailed off in thought as Evergreen started to drive back to Fairy Tail.


Several hours later...Fairy Tail.

"Will Natsu be okay?" Happy asked in a sad tone as he sat near his adoptive mother, Lisanna. The guild had been in complete shock at the horrible wound adorning the dragon slayers body as Erza and Lucy carried him into the hall. Immediately afterwards, Jet had run of to get Porlyusica to ask for her help. At the moment, she was attending to the young man as the guild waited for the news...except for two.

"Don't worry Happy. Natsu will be completely fine! He'll just have a fucking awesome scar now!' Evergreen said with a smile as she sat next to Bisca at a nearby table.

"How can you be so sure of that? He got run through by a large scythe and used up every ounce of his magic!" Lisanna practically shouted as she worried for the man she's had a crush on since childhood.

"Our Natsu has been hurt way worse. And multiple times too" the woman continued as Connell cleaned her rifle. Sitting right next to her was the Bisca of this universe as she studied the inner workings of the unknown weapon.

"He has?" asked Laki as she kept her eyes on the two visitors despite wanting to study the physique of Grey across the hall.

"Oh yeah! Lets see...he's had a fifteen story building collapse on him...was impaled...and shot. All that happened in one day though" Evergreen said casually while looking at the ceiling. "Hmmmm, he's taken shrapnel to the side and a meat cleaver to the chest. What else...? He was shot a second time. That one was pretty bad though"

"Don't forget all the time's he's been eaten by monsters bigger than this building" Connell said casually as she re-assembled her rifle.

"Ugh...that shit was gross... I still don't know how you didn't barf your lungs out after seeing him be eaten by a zombified elephant?"

"The trick is not to eat before that" the gun mage replied as the guild looked on in a new wave of horror.

"He...he really survived such horrible wounds and situations?" Levy asked as she sat next to Laki and her team. "Seriously!? A zombified elephant!"

"He did...his life has not been a pleasant one" she finished sadly before setting the long rifle at the end of the table.

Makarov studied the two young women in his hall. After returning from the regular meeting with his counterparts, he had watched helplessly as one of his children had been carried into the hall. The sight of Natsu like that broke his heart, the fresh wound searing into his mind. After Erza and Lucy had set him up in the infirmary, Erza had relayed the events of the whole mission to him. The dozens of dead bodies of the victims, how the dark mages were planning on preforming vile sexual acts upon his daughters. The men's surprising strength...and how Bisca almost single handily killed most of the men there. From what Erza relayed to him, this was common practice in this 'other' version of Fairy Tail that was plagued with dark mages far worse than here. "Still...if this other version of myself is anything like me...it must hurt him on the inside knowing his children have to kill in order to survive..."

"Connell. Evergreen. I am not comfortable with you two killing your enemies. However...I am thankful for how you two helped my mages...and for saving Natsu's life"

"Think nothing of it, gramps! I was glad to help save him!" the cowgirl exclaimed with a stunning smile.

"That's only because you like Natsu" Evergreen replied casually as she looked at her fingernails.

"SHUT UP, EVERGREEN!" Both Connell women shouted before blinking in realization. Looking at one another, they're eyes widened in realization as did the rest of the guild. Some random mage was about to make a smart comment, but was halted as the door to the infirmary swung open. There stood Natsu with a sheepish grin on his face as Porlyusica scowled behind him.

"This young man will not take any jobs or train a single day for the next week. The only thing he is allowed to do is rest, eat, and take it easy. And if he breaks his promise..." she trailed off while squeezing the young man's shoulder.

"OW! I get it alright! Can I go now?" he complained. Releasing the man, the old doctor simply harrumphed before walking out of the guild. Finally free of the frightening old woman, Natsu slowly walked over before sitting with Lisanna, Lucy, and Erza.

"Hey guys...sorry for making you worry like that..." he trialed off while the woman tried to give him withering glares. "It wouldn't have happened if you hadn't ran off! Seriously Natsu! Ever since we were kids you always just do whatever pops into that brain of yous!" Lisanna scolded as she held Happy in her lap.

"I agree Natsu. What you did was wreckless and foolish. I would never forgive myself if something happened to you. So next time, you wait for your friends to help you, understood?" Erza chastised as a small tug of a smile adorned her lips.

"Same here you idiot! I've only been here a few days, but I don't need to lose one of my friends!" the blonde practically yelled into his face as she leaned over the table. Easing back at how close she was getting to the dragon slayer, she tried to hide the small blush adorning her face. "Just..please be more careful from now on...okay?"

"Youuuuu like hiiimmmm" Happy teased as he flew up and landed on Natsu's shoulders, an impish smile on his furry face.

"SHUT IT CAT!" the blonde yelled in mock rage as the flying cat simply flew up into the air, laughing at the embarrassed blonde.

"Don't worry Lucy! I like you too! Your one of my friends!" he cheered before grasping his side, the fresh wound still very tender. Fortunately, it was not life threatening thanks to the doctors efforts.

"I always forget how brain-addled he is in other realities" Evergreen mentioned casually before speaking up. "Natsu! She likes you romantically like both Bisca's!" the brunette shouted as Lucy turned crimson, the blush deepening her cheeks almost scarlet in color.

"Eh?" he asked in a confused tone as he looked at the blushing face of Bisca as Connell just looked around awkwardly.

"Jesus fucking christ..." she muttered under breath. "It mean's she would want to make babies with you one day!" Evergreen shot out hotly as she pinched her nose in frustration. "Seriously...thank god ours understands all this shit" she muttered as Erza cleared her throat.

"All kidding and teasing aside. Weren't you two going to reveal some things you lied about earlier? And how Natsu in your reality managed to procure six girlfriends?"

"I suppose. What do you want to know first?" Connell asked as she studied the ceiling, watching the fan spin above her head.

"Well, Who are his girlfriends where you come from?' asked Laki. "Maybe this will give me some insight to snagging that ice mage"

"Uh...Erza, Mira, Juvia, Cana, Sam, and Erza Knightwalker from a reversal universe. But then he met this female version of himself a few weeks ago. Then there's the fact that Levy like's him too"

"ARE YOU KIDDING! That fire bastard dates two Erza's, Mira, the guild drunk, and that insane water mage from Phantom Lord!" Grey yelled out in complete disbelief. While Erza and Cana had both turned an embarrassing shade of red, Mira just seemed to smile.

"Oh my...well that certainly is surprising" the eldest Strauss women admitted while she stood behind the bar.

"Wait, don't you like him deep down?" Evergreen asked.

"Wellll...I kinda like girls. But if I didn't, he would be my first choice"

"Interesting... I only know of one universe where Mira is a lesbian" the brunette replied casually. "So who is it?"

"I'm not telling" Mira replied in a sing song tone as she leaned against the giant wall mirror, her arms crossed underneath her impressive bust. "It's a shame our Evergreen isn't like this one...I really like her silky hair..."

"So...um..how did my double get with...Natsu?" Erza asked shyly as she tried not to blush even further. Peeking out of the corner of her eye, her male friend was the same as the reality of the situation finally hammered itself into his head.

"She was stranded in a universe with him for almost a whole year.. She liked him before, but after that, it was almost inevitable. But Sam had already beaten her to the punch. After that, the others slowly followed as time went on"

"How did I end up liking Natsu?" asked Cana in curiosity. "I know Mira likes Evergreen which is fine. And I could see the appeal with Natsu... But I'm gonna get me that Levy even if it takes me a year!"

"I think she was taken by his bravery?" Connell asked, not sure if she was correct.

"Yeah. It was during the assault of Estana Point when she first started feeling it" Evergreen replied with a shrug.

"Estana Point?" Levy asked in confusion.

"Battle in a different universe. Don't worry about it"

"Yeah but it didn't really hit full force until the Battle of Magnolia" Connell replied before waving her hand in dismissal at the mages. "These guys don't need to know about the locust...at least today anyway"

"Are they happy?" Bisca asked as she studied her double. "She likes Natsu too? I guess we are kinda similar..."

"Pretty much. Don't get me wrong, they do have arguments sometimes or need their own space. But for the most part they're good"

"That's a relief to hear" Lucy said with a smile as her blushing finally faded. "I know I'm really new, but I have to admit he is handsome. And those abs...NO! BAD LUCY!" she mentally scolded herself.

"While it is interesting to know that Natsu actually knows how to woo women in your reality, I am still concerned why you lied about the casualties in your universe earlier today? And for how casually you killed those dark mages" The old guild master asked with a stern look.

"We didn't want to alarm you. Right now, your universe hasn't faced the oncoming hardships yet. All the battles that push you to the brink and beyond" Evergreen said softly as her eyes gained a faraway look.

"Do any of our mages get hurt in these fights?' Lisanna asked as turned to face the brunette.

"For the most part, almost every version of our guild we've encountered has pulled through without losses and emerge's stronger. But...our's is different..."

"How so?" Grey asked as he leaned against a pillar in the hall.

"Remember all the dead bodies at the train station?'

"Yeah...kinda hard to forget that bloodbath" he replied with a shudder.

"That's a normal occurrence in our reality. Dark mages where we come from are stronger, more vicious...deadlier... There are even dark guilds that practice cannibalism in our home. We can't afford to be merciful with any of them. If you let down your guard for half a second...that's all it takes." Connell told them with a crack in her voice as her eyes misted with tears.

"Is..is that why you were so merciless toward Eisenwald? Why you were yelling at me?" Erza asked as she looked at the two women. "I didn't see it before..but they seem so fragile despite how well they fought"

"Yeah...and that doesn't even include all the monsters that we've faced. So many...have died..." she whispered as the doppler looked at her hands. "Am I a monster? I've done such awful things..."

"More than the thousand you mentioned?" Makarov asked solemnly.

"In the past two months, ten's of thousands have died. So many towns and small cities are just gone now! And that's not even the worst part!" Connell cried as tears washed down her face, the shuddering of her body seen by all as the guild finally understood some of the hardships this other reality went through.

"Whole cities are gone? Even worse monsters then dark mages? No wonder they seem...colder" Grey told himself as he watched the woman cry.

"What's the worst part?" Macao asked as he completely forgot his beer, the tale's of suffering pulling at his heartstrings.

"I..I...I...I was one of the main causes for a civil war in another universe! Over Eight hundred thousand died in three days! I..I killed so many..." Bisca stuttered out before running from the hall, her teardrops falling to the floor as she ran out the double doors. Sighing at her friends outburst, Evergreen saw the horrified looks on everybody's face.

"Why...would my double do such a thing?" Bisca asked as she looked at the lone member of the Thunder legion.

"It needed to be done...that place was so vile. The civil war had to happen"

"But why?" asked Mira from behind the bar. "She looked like a wreck! That much blood on your hands..."

"Tell me Mira. What kind of rights do women have here?"

"The same rights as men. We can vote, have jobs, pretty much there isn't a difference between men and women's rights here. Why?"

"In that other reality where she caused almost a million deaths with some of my other friends, women did not have those rights. There, they were second class citizens. From the age of eight to eighteen, all women were taught that they were nothing but whores and trash. That the only thing they were useful for was fucking and making kids. My double there was gang fucked by ten men because she wanted to study architecture. She had no opinion on any matter. If they were caught carrying weapons or assaulted a man, that woman would be thrown in stocks in the center of town. Then any man could come up and fuck her for the next three days. Erza, Cana, Mira, Lisanna...and so many of the women here had to preform sexual acts with random men several times per day...Fairy Tail there...was a guild for men to come in and fuck who they wanted as long as they had money"

"That...sounds like a nightmare..." Cana said softly as tears threatened her eyes. "State sanctioned rape? Being forced to service men with no hope of a future..."

"It was... but Bisca and the others changed all that"

"Dammit! Why the hell didn't my double try to do something about it!" Grey shouted in frustration at the horrible revelation.

"You were an enemy there Grey. Pretty much every man here in this hall was part of the 'Whore Subjugation Squad' Your double prided himself on keeping women in line and rounding up lone girls for the brothels. Your double tried to subdue my friends just so you could fuck them. Bisca and the others killed them all without mercy. Try thinking how damaging that is? To go to a reality and kill people who are your friends back home?" Evergreen asked as Grey gained a look of disgust on his face along with many of the other males.

"How could a double of me be so awful? I'm glad they killed that version" he told himself with a snarl.

"Was every man like that?" Lucy asked nervously.

"Pretty much. The only exception was Natsu. He managed to save your doppleganger, Levy, Bisca, Wendy, and Juvia from that fate. From what I understand, he hid them up in the mountains and taught them self defense while giving them an education. Currently, he is the only man in Fairy Tail. Every single woman in that guild absolutely adores him because he treats them as equals and with respect. For them, he is literally one in a million"

"No way..." Natsu commented as a few women in the hall looked at him in a new light.

"I always knew he had a good heart, but to keep it shining in such a place where my double endured such hardships? He really might be the 'one" Erza concluded as Evergreen sat back down at her table.

"That's why she helped start a civil war...to bring equality to countless women who had been mistreated for centuries. But she started having some bad nightmares a month ago..then there was all the shit with the zombies" the brunette trailed off before letting out a deep sigh. 'I'm gonna go look for her alright? I'm sorry for all the bad stuff I told you" she lightly apologized before heading out the door in search of her friend.

"How is that other Bisca not completely insane? I mean...fighting actual living dead like the movies?" Laki asked the hall in a shallow whisper.

"I don't know...her life sounds awful having to deal with all that" Lisanna replied back as she held onto Happy, her small hands petting the cat in her lap.

"Indeed. This other reality seems to deal with some horrifying situations." the red head commented before a strange static filled the hall. Electricity seemed to jump in the air before a cascading blue portal appeared from nothingness. Moment's later a double of Levy appeared with a second blue haired woman in tow. While many mages did recognize the form of Juvia Lockser, they also knew that she was one of the element four with Phantom Lord. But pushing past that, they couldn't help but look at the blood spattered form of Levy as she cradled a rifle in her arms. Several specks and smears covered her clothing and face, the droplets hitting the light as she stepped forward.

"Umm...hello?" Levy asked as she looked at this gore covered version of herself. "She looks kinda scary. All that blood...and that scar"

"Hey" McGarden replied shortly before turning to Makarov. "Are there doubles of Bisca and Evergreen here?"

"Yes. But they left the hall a short time ago. Bisca was quite upset about some civil war she helped start" the old guild master replied. Watching the script mage run an exhausted hand through her hair, the guild could finally see how...tired she looked.

"So it happened again, huh? Universe 877-X was pretty nasty..." she trailed off.

"You know what happened there?" Laki asked as she looked at this possible new insight.

"I was there. I'm considered one of the six 'War Angels' in that universe" she finished before raising a hand to halt anymore questions. "If you know some of what happened, that's more than enough. Just know that they are rebuilding and the new laws and constitution under the six elders will enable rights and equality for all. Now I'm gonna go see how my friends are doing" McGarden told them before leaving the guild hall in a flurry of steps.

"Juvia supposes she will wait here...AHHHH! NATSU! When did you get hurt!?" the water mage cried out as she ran across the hall, her footsteps thundering across the hall. Scooping up the bandaged man in one fell swoop, she smashed his face between her generous mountains of flesh.

"Don't worry Natsu! Juvia is here! She will nurse you back to health!" she said happily as the man struggled to breathe in his heavenly prison.

"This chick is crazy..." Lisanna thought before shaking her head. Standing up in a burst of speed, the shorter girl completely forgot about little Happy as he tumbled to the floor.

"The only one that will be comforting him is me!" the younger Strauss woman shot out before grabbing Natsu. Gasping for air, he barely had time for a fresh breath of oxygen as his faced was pushed between Lisanna's B-cup breasts.

"You two are obviously incapable of nursing him back to health" Erza retorted as she re-equipped into her nurse's outfit with a flash of light. "Now nurse Erza will lend her efforts to bring him to peak physical condition!" she replied smugly as the guild pushed the previous stories to the back of their minds. Snatching the dragon slayer away, she comforted him into her busty chest. Not realizing the poor man had passed out, she gained a victorious smile.

"So Juvia has love-rivals here as well..." the blunette asked darkly while gathering an orb of swirling water in her hands.

"NOW THAT"S ENOUGH!" yelled Makarov from the top of his lungs, anger and annoyance written on his face as the looked at the blue haired woman. "While I tolerate my mages fighting in brawls, your a mage of Phantom Lord. If you attack any of them, that could create several issues with your guild and mine"

"But Juvia is a member of Fairy Tail? She always has been" the beautiful mage replied as she hiked up part of her coat. Revealing a finely toned thigh of milky, creamy skin, she revealed her guild mark. "See? Juvia has been a member longer than Lucy in her reality"

"Hmmm...well I guess it's okay then" he replied without a care. "At least this little commotion is helping to cover up the horrible news from earlier"

Nodding her head, Juvia turned back to the three main culprits. Even though Lucy hadn't done or said anything, Juvia knew she was a love rival.

"Now which one of you harpies has slept with Natsu...? She thinks it was the succubus red head or the blonde"

"ARE YOU KIDDING!? I've only known him for three days!?" she roared in exasperation as Natsu slowly woke back up.

"Juvia understands that his handsomeness makes women swoon, so please control yourself Lucy" she replied as the celestial mage just groaned.

"It's like she didn't even hear Lucy at all" Bisca commented softly as Erza spoke up.

"Actually Juvia. None of us have a romantic relationship with Natsu...not that I wouldn't mind" she whispered the last part to herself. Forgetting the advanced hearing of Natsu, she didn't see his eyes open in realization at her words. "Erza likes me like that? YEEEESSSSS!" he mentally cheered as the red head continued to clutch the man to her bosom.

"Wait...so that means...JUVIA STILL HAS A CHANCE!" the rainwoman yelled out before running past a returning Bisca, Levy and Evergreen.

"Juvia? Where are you going?' asked the brunette in the green dress.

"JUVIA MUST HELP OTHER JUVIA!" she cried over her shoulder before disappearing down the street toward the train station.

"Aaannnddd...she's gone" McGarden commented before walking back into the hall with her two friends. Nudging her companion forward, Connell slightly stumbled before looking at all the gathered mages.

"I'm sorry for breaking down like that..and for telling you about some of the awful things out there. The truth is, most realities are quite normal and peaceful" she finished softly.

"It's alright my child. While I'm still uneasy with all this talk of killing...you still did help with the liberation of a whole universe" the short old man replied.

"Thanks..." she trailed off before her stomach growled. Turning a slight shade of red in embarrassment, the female looked at Mira. "Hey Mira? Think I could get something to eat?"

"Of course. Would you other two want anything?"

"I could use a bite" replied Evergreen as she looked at McGarden, the unspoken question in her eyes.

"I'm good" she responded in exhaustion before turning to her double. "Hey. I'm using your shower and bed. I've been up for almost twenty four hours and I'm beat" she simply said, not caring how her double responded. Walking past the mages, Erza could almost see a pull at the woman's lips as she glanced at Natsu, her eyes lighting up.

"What was that? That other Levy has been scowling the whole time and one little glance at Natsu...NO WAY!? Could she...?" the red head realized in a heartbeat as the remaining two doubles sat down.

"That girl. Still denying her feelng's for Natsu even after everything those two have been through" Evergreen said with a chuckle before looking at the Bisca of this universe. "You better get your foot in the door now if you like him. Otherwise you'll find yourself battling half a dozen women for his affections in no time"

"Really?"

"Yup" Evergreen replied with a chirp before making the come hither motion. Leaning over the table, the brunette started to whisper into Bisca's ear. "A good way to start is strength in battle or being a really good cook. He loves strong females and spicy foods"

"I see...Hey Mira!? Can I use the kitchen for a bit?"

"Sure! Just make sure to clean up after yourself" the stunning barmaid replied. Watching the gun mage walk away, the woman in green attire smirked to herself before Laki approached and sat down. "Hey...you two seem to know about relationships right? "

"Yeah, I like to think so"

"Good. So...um...how would I get that delicious ice mage to myself? I know he's some stripping pervert, but those abs!" she cried out before covering her mouth. Cowering down, she kept her voice low as she studied the two.

"So Grey is it? Well my double dates him in 200-AB...but that came about over something kinda traumatic and over time. That would not be ideal here" "Don't reveal what happened to our Laki!" she mentally told herself.

"So how would I get him? I've tried to approach him...but I always back down..."

"Hmmmm...I have the perfect idea!" the taller woman with glasses responded before standing up and approaching Erza.

"Hey Erza? You have any magical restraints?"

"I do. Why would you need them though?" she asked cautiously as Natsu wedged himself between her and Lisanna.

"Oh don't worry about that" Evergreen said with a wave as the knight brought forth the magical item. Grabbing the cuffs, she slowly walked toward Grey who was deep in thought. "How the hell does that pink haired flame stick get multiple women!? It's unfair! I mean, he's a complete idiot!" he raved in his head before finding himself being flung toward the ground.

"OOOMMMPHHH!" he gasped out as he felt his hands being shackled. Looking over his shoulder, he could see a smirking Evergreen.

"EVER! What the hell!?" he yelled in indignation as the woman hefted the man to his feet.

"Here you go Laki! One ice mage just for you!"

"YES! Thanks Evergreen!" the purple haired female exclamied as she grabbed Grey by the collar. "Let's go Grey! We can get to know each other at my place!" the girl said in happiness as she dragged the kicking and struggling man from the hall.

"Huh...I had no idea Laki liked Grey" Cana exclaimed as Mira walked by with two meals for the guests. Digging into the rich food, they smiled at the meal as Bisca walked out and placed a fire steak and some spicy ribs in front of Natsu.

"Here you go Natsu...I hope you like it...and I'm glad your going to make a full recovery" the woman said with a smile.

"Wow! This looks really good! Thanks Bisca" the fire mage shot out with a smile as the cow-girls heart fluttered at the compliment. Taking his first bite, the man sank his teeth into the juicy steak as he savored the wonderful flavor. Chewing and swallowing, he gave her a huge grin. "It's...delicious!" he shouted out before taking another bite.

"You could take some lessons from her Connell"

"Oh shut up, Ever" the gun mage retorted as the guild fell into a pleasant mood of talking and laughter. During that time, many members had approached the two, curious about their lives. While they made sure not to reveal any more horrible details, they did divulge tales of pleasant and fun realities to the mages as they tried to forget the bloodshed the two had witnessed. Even Erza had confided in them for dating tips with Natsu, the woman trying to find the best way to approach the resident fire mage. In fact, the guild was having such a pleasant time, they completely forgot about Juvia.


Oak Town. Phantom Lord.

"Your so damn gloomy Juvia. I still can't believe how useless you are all the time. If it wasn't for your magical strength, I'd kick you out of the guild right now" Jose told the sobbing woman as she stood in the hall. The whole guild was chuckling and amusing themselves at the suffering of the female, her failure of another mission music to their ears.

"Juvia is sorry, but Gajeel Redfox was determined to stay with Lamia Scale. She tried her best.." the soft spoken girl trailed off.

"Well you didn't try hard enough!" the guild master screamed at her as she flinched back, anguish and tears in her eyes. Seeing the cowering woman before him, Jose let out a sneer of annoyance as he took in the knowing smirks of the male members. With the exception of Sue Bright who was out on a job, Juvia was the only woman in the guild as an idea came to the guild master.

"Tell you what Juvia. Since I'm such a forgiving man, I'll give you another chance"

"R..Really!?" the woman replied as a small ember of hope reigned in her soul. "This could be Juvia's chance to finally get things right! Even though they treat her harshly, they still give Juvia a home...because she wouldn't have anywhere else to go..."

"By all means! All you have to do is have sex with half the men here at once! After all, you can't do anything right. I mean, every client complains about your rain and the stupid way you talk. I figure we might as well use that body of yours for something" he said with a sinister smile. "I really don't care if she agrees or not. These mages of mine need entertainment until my plan to take Fairy Tail down is complete"

"J..Juvia will do no such thing! She is saving herself for her true love!"

"Ugh...Not this shit again..." Jose muttered before snapping his fingers. In mere seconds, several men had grabbed the rainwoman while another place a magical restraint collar around her neck.

"NO! What are you doing!? Juvia is a mage of Phantom Lord just like you all!" she cried as several of the men started to grope her large breasts.

"Will somebody PLEASE shut this bitch up!' Jose exclaimed just as the guild hall doors burst open, the constructs falling to the ground in a flurry of water and splintered wood.

"Juvia has heard enough..." the S-class mage of Fairy Tail uttered darkly as she walked into the hall. Seeing her double in restraints, her rage grew.

"THE FUCK!" Jose yelled out as this second water mage slowly walked across his hall, her footsteps echoing across the room as nobody made a sound.

"You will release Juvia and turn her over to me. Otherwise Lockser will use force"

"Yeah right! Come on boys! Two are better than one! Lets fuck both of them!" a random mage cheered out as they ran to attack the second female. Sighing in annoyance, she gathered her magic into a simple attack.

"Water Cleaver!"

The liquid coalesced in mere moments, forming a large flat blade that resembled the weapon it was named after. Swinging it in a wide arc at ten of the men rushing her, she struck. The men had been gathering their own attacks of magic as they ran forward, but immediately stopped in their tracks as Juvia's attack passed through them.

"GRRRR! What are you fools doing! Attack!" Jose roared at the frozen men. When they didn't move after a few more seconds, He shot up from his throne. That's when horror washed over the eyes of everyone in the hall. Each one of the men had been bisected in half as their torsos flopped to the ground. Blood and organs spilled out as each male came apart in the middle, often going in separate directions. The stink of loosened bowels filled the air as it mixed with the coppery tint of fresh human gore. Not caring in the slightest, Juvia stepped through one of the spreading puddles of crimson, walking over the half body of a man as his entrails lain spread across the floor.

"This other Juvia just killed ten men! And she didn't even flinch! And her magical strength...Juvia felt it for a moment. It is far greater than Master...no ex- master Jose's power"

"Lockser will not ask again. Release Juvia or she will destroy your guild" she stated coldly.

"NO! I refuse to bow to a stupid girl like you!" KILL HER!" Jose screamed in fury as he started to gather his powerful shade magic. Moving her hands upwards before pointing them at Jose and the closest members, the rainwoman uttered only one word.

"Drain"

The screams of everybody in the hall reverberated off the ceiling and walls, the water orbs surrounding the would be rapists as the life slowly drained from their bodies. Jose could only watch helplessly as his finest mages started to crumble, the bodies turning to dust. First Aria, then Sol, and finally Totomaru as the men died with horror in their eyes. Feeling his life fading, Jose could only look down at his hand as it slowly withered away to nothing.

"How is this possible!? I'm the strongest! The...stro...ngest..." were his final thoughts as he faded away to nothing, leaving the two twins in the hall as his dust fell to the ground.

Juvia looked at this murderous double in fear, her eyes betraying her emotions as the twin slowly approached. Shrinking back instinctively as the other her reached for the magical restraint, she tried to find a way to defend herself.

'Lockser isn't going to hurt Juvia. She came here to bring you to Fairy Tail and to meet an amazing man that will give you love"

"Really? But why did you..." she trailed off as the woman looked at the fallen bodies.

"They do bad things in many realities. Plus they were going to do something horrible to her double. This could not be allowed to happen" the inter-dimensional visitor claimed while removing the restraining collar. Rubbing her neck at the lifting of the weight, Juvia studied her double. "This is so odd. We look the same, but she is so much stronger. We even have different hairstyles" she thought while looking at the woman with blue locks rolling down to her shoulders.

"We must hurry. Even though they were all pretty evil, they were still considered a light guild. Lockser will have to take care of this" the double finished before using her drain magic to consume the remaining bodies in the hall. Once that was done, she walked over to a nearby doorway. Opening it, she smirked to herself as she gazed upon the many power lacrima's in the room. "Thank goodness Jose is predictable across the multiverse" she told herself as the woman grabbed one of the objects. Feeding power into the lacrima, she started a cascade effect before tossing it back into the pile.

"Let's go! This hall will explode in five minutes!" the murderous Juvia exclaimed as she grabbed her doubles hand and running for all they were worth. Moving past the archway, they kept running as the two didn't look back. Bypassing the occasional home, the two made their way into the forest before a thunderclap of sound reached the duo's ears. Looking back, they could see the massive ball of angry fire as numerous chunks of debris and wood rained down from the sky.

"Lockser...didn't expect the explosion to be that large..."

"Juvia wants to thank...the other Juvia for helping her. She had no idea they were going to do such nasty things...They said Juvia was part of the guild, but they only cared for her magical strength. None wanted to be close to Juvia because she was gloomy..."

"Don't worry! We can fix that! Now we just need to get to Magnolia!" the other blunette cheered as she grabbed the downcast woman's hand and dragging her down the mountain path toward the strongest guild in Fiore.


The following day...

The rest of the night had been pretty uneventful for the mages of Fairy Tail. With the exception of Evergreen and Connell joining Cana for a night of drinking, nothing of note happened. Not even a guild fight broke out seeing as the main protagonist, Natsu was still heavily bandaged. Seeing it as a golden opportunity to improve her 'nursing' skills, Erza took the dragon slayer to her apartment in Fairy Hills. While he tried to protest that it was against the rules, the male was quickly silenced by the stern gaze and steel grip of the knight. Wanting to make sure no 'unsavory' acts were preformed, Bisca and Lisanna both stayed in the woman's apartment. The main excuse being that Natsu was still a young adult male alone in the same bedroom as the bountiful red-head. Fortunately, no fights or squabbles broke out as the three mainly talked through the night as Natsu slept soundly on the couch. Lucy had simply gone home, the entirety of the days event and revelations wearing on her soul as she collapsed into bed at barely eight o'clock at night.

Now it was the following morning as a very horrified Grey was sitting in the guild hall,his eyes darting to the side in a constant search for threats. Everybody ignored him however as Natsu sat with Erza, Lisannaa, and Lucy, the man still confused why the girls were spending so much time with him all of sudden. Makarov was enjoying the first beer of the day with Macao and Wakaba, relaying event of his productive meeting. Evergreen was chatting with Mira, the former discovering who the barmaid liked through Cana's drunken stupor the previous night. Connell was showing Bisca the inner workings of her longshot, the natural inhabitant of this universe fascinated by the technology. And while some members were still uneasy around the few visitors, they actually found them to be quite nice and fun to be with. So this was the scene in Fairy Tail as the clock reached almost noon as the two Levy's shared a table.

"Here you go Levy. I stopped by my universe this morning to get this stuff for you. It's all the materials you'll need to start building your own IVD technology" a clean and refreshed Mcgarden vocalized as she presented the data storage lacrima along with a box full of supplies to the script mage"

"Are you sure? I mean...you girls have seen some pretty bad stuff out there"

"It's fine. I put a list of every bad universe that's been contacted. Plus please remember that my reality is harsher than this one. But if you want a good starting point, I'd recommend the Fairy Tail of 200-AB. They're our closest friends besides the Seran's. While a few of them have killed out in the multiverse, its no where near the level we've seen"

"Oh..well in that case thank you very much!" the short woman replied with a smile toward her double. "She wears such odd clothing. I never considered myself a mad genius" she told herself before starting to go through all the construction materials with her double. As the two chatted animatedly about the technology, the minutes continued to tick away. Hearing the doors to the guild open, Connell looked up from her lesson in guns to see two women standing in the shafts of bright sunlight. Seeing the forms of two Juvia's standing there, the woman smiled to herself while watching the new events unfold.

"Hello everyone! Lockser decided to go rescue Juvia from Phantom Lord! Now she want's to join Fairy Tail!" the blue haired water mage cried out in a cheerful tone before grabbing her doubles hand. "Come on and meet everybody! But first you should meet Natsu! He's very dreamy" the second water mage simply stated before planting her double near the table of Natsu. Walking away to let them do their own thing, she joined her friend Evergreen at the bar.

"Oh..okay' the other woman said in a quiet tone as she was walked toward a table with four people. "That's the Titania! Erza Scarlet! And I think that's the younger sister of Mirajane! Don't recognize the blonde though..." she trailed off in her head before looking at the man at the table. His shirt vest was hanging open, revealing a muscular torso wrapped in bandages while a warm smile graced his features. Sitting on top of his head was spiky pink hair. "Juvia never expected him to be...so handsome! Ahh! What if he hates Juvia's rain? But other me said he'll love it..." she trailed off, lost in thought before hearing a kind, masculine tone.

"Hi Juvia! It's nice to meet you!"

Feeling a strange tingling sensation in her chest, Juvia looked at this handsome man as she felt her cheeks heat up. Letting out a small 'EEPP!' the woman hurried across the hall before hiding behind a pillar. Resting her palm over her palpitating heart, she struggled to control herself. "What is this strange feeling? She only just met him, but already she can tell he's very kind..."

"You okay Juvia? I know meeting new people can be scary, but we would all like to meet you" Natsu said happily as he appeared in front of the rainwoman.

"AH Juvia is sorry! She's just really shy. And her last guild didn't treat her very nice. She had no friends there..."

"Well I'll be your friend! Now come on and meet the others! I'm sure they would love to meet you!" the dragon slayer exclaimed before grabbing her hand and pulling her to the table.

'Hey everybody! This is Juvia!" he cheered out while continuing to hold her hand, eliciting more blushing from the angelic water mage as the man's friends introduced themselves. Offering her a seat, the man sat down next to her as the shy girl answered questions and started to open up. Little did she realize, but the woman was smiling at the antics and strange conversations of the mages as they told stories about their lives.

"So Lockser? How did you convince Jose to let her go? I know she was one of his top mages" Makarov Dreyer asked the other water mage sitting near him at the bar.

"We should discuss this in your office. No need to upset the others" she replied as the two started to walk up the stairs. Entering the room, Juvia closed the door as the master took a seat at his desk. Gather her words, the woman just decided to tell the truth.

"When Juvia got there, they were planning on gang-raping her double. Jose was sick of all her failure's and planned on making her 'earn' her keep. They had placed her in a magical cancelling collar. They were already running hands over her body when Juvia arrived. She told them to let her double go and there wouldn't be any trouble. They didn't like that. Many figured they could capture myself and have two women to service them"

"What did you do?" "Her own guild master ordered that? I knew Jose has been involved with shady dealing, but that's just sick and disgusting..."

"Juvia killed them all. Better to deal with the threat now than before they attack Fairy Tail in July. If you had to fight them then, Jose would fire the Jupiter Cannon at Magnolia and eventually the Abyss Break. Both of which are forbidden under council law"

"Jose possessed such weaponry! And you killed them all!?" Makarov exclaimed in shock at the woman before him.

"She did...Juvia has had to do many awful things to protect the innocent and keep her friends safe and alive. Her double's fall under that category as well"

"But what about the bodies! The magic council will know if a whole light guild disappeared!"

"Juvia turned them to dust and destroyed the guild hall. There will be no evidence to point back to your guild. But if they ask, just say an evil dark mage of Zeref did it that had stolen the identity of one of your mages"

"I see...You know, it breaks my heart knowing you girls are from such a harsh place where you have to kill..." the old man said softly.

"Juvia knows...she sometimes forgets that her reality used to be just like this one. But so many friends and loved ones have died...We cannot afford to be soft anymore..." she trailed off as a range of hurt and painful emotions washed over her eyes.

"They're damaged...they're haunted by all the suffering they've endured" the kind guild master thought in sadness as he looked at the young woman before him. The sound of yelling and shouting from down below broke their solemn moment, eliciting the two into a flurry of movement. Throwing the door open, Juvia and Makarov came out onto the second floor landing. Looking down, Makarov could see several rune knights led by a member of the magical council standing in the doorway.

"For the crimes of murder on forty seven accounts, Erza Scarlet will be arrested and brought to trail" Siegrain told the gathered mages as they looked on helplessly at the situation. The vile council member couldn't help but internally smirk at his fortune. As soon as the news of Fairy Tail killing so many dark mages, it made his plans so much easier. "This is perfect! After the trail, I can have her taken to the tower! But...perhaps I'll have her preform sexual services to my followers like Milliana? Or partake in a taste myself? After all, she has grown to be quite beautiful"

"Piss off Jellal. Your trumped up charges against Erza here don't mean shit. I mean, she didn't even kill a single person" Connell retorted as she looked at the councilor in absolute hate. Seeing the mask on the man crumble for an instant, many of the gathered mages could see through his demeanor as the man regained his composure.

"I...believe you have me confused with my twin brother who resides in the tower. He is a stain on the family and his days are numbered, but don't confuse me with that monster" he replied to the woman through gritted teeth. Turning to his knights, he barked out new orders. "Get Erza Scarlet into cuffs! Anybody who resists is an instant accomplice!"

As the knights moved toward the red head who was being shielded by a still recovering Natsu, they were halted in their tracks. Connell had formed a magical rifle in her hands, pointing it at the group as Levy raised her hammerburst. Lockser was covering them from nearby, a orb of water in her hands as the three stood ready to defend. Evergreen remained stoic, knowing that she would be ready to petrify the knights in mere seconds.

"Bisca, he's still doing his body double shit. Rght now the real Jellal is sitting in his fucking tower planning on reviving zeref" McGarden voiced her knowledge to her friend.

"If you don't hand Erza over now I'll make Fairy Tail a dark guild! The council will back me one hundred percent!" Siegrain uttered in absolute fury.

"The council? Oh you mean that body of officials with a third being dark mages or just there through bribery? Yeah, We're not scared of that...but it wouldn't do to kill half of you either..." McGarden trailed off before raising her voice. "Hey Ever!? What time is it back home?"

"About eleven at night, why?"

"Go get Scarlet. You know how she is with this evil bastard" the short woman ordered as Evergreen nodded her head. Pulling the portal gun from her pocket, she activated it and disappeared in a shimmering flash.

"The hell was that!?" the evil councilor shouted out as his knights looked on in disbelief.

"Dimensional breach which I unlocked. Now please shut up" the twin of Levy ordered as the mages waited in silence. As they waited, Erza had subconsciously grabbed Natsu's hand, giving it a reassuring squeeze as the man stood at the ready to defend her. "Even with his wounds...he's still ready to fight for me. A foolish former slave that overpowers him all the time. Maybe after all this calms down, we can sit down and talk about some important issues?" the redhead thought as the minutes ticked away. After ten minutes, the whole of the guild became stifled with unease before a familiar crackle could be heard in the air. The spinning vortex of blue appeared in seconds before three people appeared. One was the returning Evergreen as she pulled a struggled double of the councilor. His hands were bound by magical restraints, a nasty scowl on his face. Many of the mages could feel the absolute...evil dripping off the man as Evergreen tossed him to the ground near the other blue haired man. But the real shock was the third person. It was another Erza, decked out in heavy armor adorned with blue lights up the sides and a large gear symbol in the center of the breast plate. The words 'SCARLET" had been stenciled above her right breast, revealing her identity. On her back was a large rifle with a chainsaw slung underneath while a large pistol sat in a hip holster. It was just a moment, but the double near Natsu could feel the absolute power of this woman. "She's stronger than Master!"

"So. We have a pre-tower of Jellal situation? These always bug the crap outta me" she muttered while rubbing a tired hand down her face. Walking up to the fallen mage, she unbound him. Scurrying to stand next to his 'twin' brother, the man glared in absolute fury.

"How dare you assault me in my own chamber! I was busy planning for the return of Zeref!"

"Shut up Jellal and just rejoin your twin already. I was about to enjoy a nice relaxing bubble bath when this shit came up" she ordered in annoyance.

"Fine then!" the foolish man yelled out as a burst of light enveloped the two. Shielding her eyes, Lisanna could see the two men forming into one as the magical pressure skyrocketed. "Holy shit! They were right! he really was just a clone!" she replied over the clamoring voices of the mages.

"AHHHH! HE'S REALLY STRONG!" Happy wailed as the little cat hid behind his mother. Finding the light fading, Jellal gave a knowing smirk as he started at the two Erza's in turn. "So? How does it feel to see an old friend?" he asked in a sneer before looking at the gathered soldiers.

"Oh, right" he told himself before numerous spears of light stabbed down from the sky. Every single knight was killed instantly, the shafts of light impaling them from multiple directions as blood and viscera flew from the fresh wounds. Feeling some specks of blood splash across her face, Scarlet's eyes hardened at the sight of these men dying because of this man.

"He...he just killed all the Rune Knights!" Cana said in a panic as she looked at the double of Erza in soldier attire. "Blood of freshly killed men just splashed against her skin and she didn't even flinch!"

Letting out a deep sigh, Scarlet looked at the man she hated with a passion. "Figures you'd kill them. But it's not surprising considering what kind of person you are. However, I do wonder what you had planned for my double here?"

"Shut up Erza. You feeble female mind can't possibly understand!"

"Let me guess...you were going to kidnap me in about a months time...probably after the Phantom Lord War. Then you were going to take me back to the tower and keep me prisoner. After that, you'd convince or take over the council to fire the Etherion Cannon to convert it into a giant lacrima. Then, you'd try to sacrifice me to resurrect Zeref. I mean...each universe has it's own events, but thats usually how it goes" the woman explained as the guild gained new insight.

"Did...that happen in your universe?" Erza asked quietly as she studied her double.

"Yeah. He killed Org and fired the cannon. Had to kill like fifty of his followers with just a knife and a meat cleaver most of the way. Then he stabbed my boyfriend in the chest before he was going to rape me. Luckily Natsu unlocked his dragon force and we beat him with the help of Levy"

"Heh...so even after all that, you couldn't bear the thought of killing your old, childhood friend?" Jellal asked with a sinister tone.

"Um no? I chopped your head off. You died like a fucking bitch. But enough of this shit. Tell me what you were planning on doing with her?" Scarlet pointed to her double.

Figuring that he had the upperhand with his renewed magical strength, the wizard saint looked at the two women in turn. 'To be honest, I was gonna have her transffered to the tower within days. Then I'd rape her for fun and turn her over to the cultists until everything lined up. The death of all the Eisenwald members really sped up my plans" he said with a shrug as Erza gained a horrified look. He was planning on doing that...to me?" as her eyes flashed fire, re-equipping into her strongest armor, the woman readied herself to attack.

"Don't bother. I got this asshole" Scarlet told her double.

"YOU! Your nothing but a scared little girl! I don't care if you managed to kill your double in your reality! Because here...I AM THE STRONGEST!" the blue haired man bellowed in fury before flaring his magic.

"Pfft. What a fucking weakling" Scarlet muttered as she pulled her boltok free. Rushing forward in a sprint, she had a gloved hand clasped around his throat in moments. Bringing her pistol up to his stomach, the woman couldn't help but smirk. "Hope your ready to die, Jellal..." she whispered to the man before pulling the trigger twice. The effect was almost immediate as the man's magic faded from the heavy bullets smashing through his torso. The two bursts of gore out of his back meant they had passed completely through, tearing up internal organs and causing great damage. Blood leaking from his mouth, Scarlet let the man collapse to the ground.

"Honestly. You think I'd be scared of a litter fucker like you? I've killed so many of your doubles in other realities, most just as vile or worse" She snarled out at him as she pressed her boot down on his gaping wound.

"GAAAAHHHH! YOU FUCKING BITCH! I"LL KILL YOU! I"LL MAKE SURE TO MAKE ALL THESE FOOLS SUFFER!" he screamed out as agony flared through his body, the nerves on fire.

"Weak words from a weak man" she commented before looking at Evergreen. "Hey? How should I end him?"

"I dunno? The boot?" she answered in a shrug.

"Works for me" the red head stated before walking up near the man's face.

"Burn in hell..." her voice echoed through the hall as she raised her heavy footwear. Bringing it down in one fell swoop, the man's head caved in with a sickening crunch as bits of bone and brain matter splashed against the woman's boots.

"Oh man...now I gotta clean these..." she wailed softly before bringing out a portal gun. Inputting some commands, the vortex appeared before the woman kicked the body through. Closing the doorway, she let out a sigh before turning to the gathered mages. "Sorry about the mess. But I'm going back home. My bath is still waiting for me" she commented before opening a dimensional breech. Pausing in her footsteps, she looked at her double. "You make sure to take care of Natsu. He's a good man. And go get your friends from the tower, it should be safe to get them now" she finished before looking at her four friends. 'We've done enough damage here. Probably should let the 200's take over. Now come on, Sam and Knightwalker were ordering some late pizza and thinking of watching Deadpool"

"Really! I love that movie!" Connell cheered out as she ran through the portal, the others joining her as the five dimensional travelers disappeared in flash of light.

"Holy shit...did you feel her magic? It was through the roof!" Grey gasped out as he tried to remove the violence images from his brain.

"I know! It was easily twice that of masters!' Mira exclaimed while looking at the open space of the mages.

"Forget that! Did you see those guns she was sporting! One pistol took down a dark mage on the levels of a wizard saint! And why would she even need one with a chainsaw on it!" Bisca exclaimed as Natsu looked to Erza.

"Hey Erza? Are you okay?"

"Yes...I Just can't believe my childhood friend fell so far into the darkness... I had always hoped I could bring him back, but with what he was saying...what he was planning...I'm glad she ended my nightmare. I don't think I could have myself."

"So...um...Juvia knows that this is all very strange...and bloody.. But could she still join Fairy Tail?" the blunette asked the gathered mages as she hid behind her pillar.

"Of course my dear! But...I think we should hold the party off til tomorrow. That blood stain in the floor will need to come out" Makarov told the water mage. "And we need to inform the Rune Knights of their fallen"

"At least they removed the body...er...one of them" trailed off Lisanna as she studied the area. "That Erza...she was dripping with power and determination. I almost could feel the conflict around her" she thought while Makarov stood on the wooden bar top.

"Everybody listen up! These visitors are killers. They have battled some horrific things and situations from what we've learned. But...they seem to do it not out of evil or malice, but to save the innocent. However, I wish for us to help them back onto the path of light! So we will assist Levy in making contact with these..200's they mentioned and gain their support! But for now, we should all go home and reflect on the things we learned today...that is all" the guild master finished as the mages started to filter out of the hall.

"Hey Juvia? I know you don't have a place to stay yet, but I have a couch you can use until you get on your feet" Lucy told the water mage with a smile.

"Oh...thank you very much" the blunette replied as the two girls started to walk down the street, opening conversations with each other as the sun bore down.


Two weeks later...

"Alright everybody! We're having a few guests from 200-AB so you better be on your best behavior" Levy told the gathered mages as they all gathered in the hall.

"Still can't believe I missed a double of myself..." Evergreen muttered as she sat with the Thunder Legion. The news of parallel versions of five of them in the hall had rocked the guild's strongest team, but the stories they had heard from their guild confirmed it.

'Too bad we missed it, would've been cool to see them" Bicslow mentioned as Laxus had an angry scowl on his face. "Damn...If I'm to believe them, this other Erza was easily twice the magical strength of my grandfather. And to add insult to injury, that other Bisca could over power me...I don't like that" he whispered to himself as his team sat in the corner of the hall. Minutes later, a crackling sound could be heard as a portal with purple tints came into existence. Emerging from the vortex came a different Natsu and Erza as the swirling breach closed behind them.

"Hiya! You can call me Dragneel and this is my girlfriend Erza Scarlet! Oh man! It's so cool to be called that! Just like him" this other Natsu replied with a smile as the other red-head smiled at him.

"Indeed. It is nice to be compared to such strong warriors" the woman lamented before looking at the gathered mages. "Excellent. It looks like everybody is here. Now since this is your first foray into other realities, I'm sure you have many questions. Dragneel and myself will do our best to answer them, so please be patient" the knight finished as many of the mages raised their hands. Pointing to Freed, Scarlet waited as the man voice his concerns.

"What does your guild do? Are you under the control of those other mages?"

"We primarily use our skills to explore and make peaceful contact with other realities in the multiverse. While it hasn't gone smoothly every single time, we have established relations with almost one hundred different versions of ourselves. As for your second question. No. We do this of our own free will to help them out"

"But what about all the killing they do? Doesn't that bother you?" Mira asked as she studied the two visitors.

"Yeah...you guys don't know much about them. If you did, you would understand why they do what they do" Dragneel replied as he rubbed the back of his head.

"How long have you known them?" Bisca asked as she sat next to Natsu, the man flanked on the other side by Erza.

"Since last summer. And since then, our strength has grown by leaps and bounds with their help" Scarlet replied.

"You don't look that strong. I bet I could take you two on yourself" Laxus mentioned smugly as he crossed his arms over his chest.

"You think so? Alright, how about a little demonstration" the fire dragon slayer replied with a smirk. In barely a split second, his magical pressure skyrocketed as it surpassed Makarov. Many mages struggled to breath under the intensity of the power this other Natsu was displaying, including Laxus.

"Just so you know Laxus...I can still go higher with my dragon force. And the double of you in my universe is even stronger" the pinkette claimed as he cut off the flow of magic.

"H..how is it possible your so much stronger then me!?" the lightning mage voiced in anger.

"It's all rela..reely..uh Erza?" the man replied as he struggled with the word.

"Relative. You see, our universe is considered the second strongest while yours is ninth. 551-G is considered third and 413-T is fourth. This is determined by the overall magical strength of the mages and their enemies. For example. If you fight some dark mages and you barely win, that would be a tough fight for you. But if we fought them, we could send in Lucy to beat them no problem"

"I think I get it" Cana voiced out before another question formed. "So where do those killer Fairy Tail mages fit in?"

"They're number one. If you think I'm strong, their Natsu is on a whole different level. It takes myself, Erza, Mira, and Gildarts to force a draw with him. And the scary fact is, if he went serious, he would vaporize us"

'N...No way! Their Natsu is that strong!" Grey shuddered in disbelief as Laki sat close to the man she claimed.

"Yes. His power is staggering"

"What's he like?" Natsu asked his double. "I have to get stronger! These other me's are too far ahead!"

"He's a soldier. He has fought horrible abominations in other realities that gave even myself nightmares for weeks once my guild learned the truth. But...if you move past the pain and hate..all the suffering he's endured... that man can be quite friendly and lovable. He will go out of his way to try and spend time with the people he cares about. He even helped my boyfriend with his writing and reading skills" Scarlet replied proudly as a happy grin adorned her face.

"You bet! He even helped me build my new house! Now I have six girlfriends living there!"

"But I don't get it. If he's so great, why does he let his girlfriends go around killing?' Lisanna asked in confusion.

"Like he would ever try to control them" Dragneel trailed off as a look of sorrow adorned his face. "How much do you know about them?"

'We know that Bisca fought zombies and that she started a civil war to bring equality to women. And that the other Erza has killed multiple Jellal's and is quite vicious"

"Then that other Evergreen said tens of thousands have died in their home reality" the female of the Thunder Legion relayed as she caught Mira looking at her again.

"I see...so they didn't reveal how many of their guild members died or how some of the other allied guilds suffered as well" the visiting knight lamented in a heavy tone.

"No...they just said alot of people died" Levy whispered out as she sat near her newly constructed IVD. Letting out a deep sigh, the busty knight brought forth a video lacrima from a side pouch.

"I can show you some of their lives with this, but you need to make two promises. One: Do not try to change them. They are like that for a reason. And the second thing is to not share this with any other universe except the top ten. Any guild weaker than this cannot handle the truth. Do you accept these conditions?"

"We do" Makarov replied as several of his children nodded in consent. Walking to the center of the room, Scarlet looked at the gathered mages. "This is the first day from the siege of Jacincto. The battle was won last spring by them, so it's over by now...but not the war." she finished before powering the lacrima. Moments later the guild was replaced with a wrecked and burning city-scape as people ran for their lives. Gunfire and explosions wracked the air as countless humans fell under the onslaught, the screams burning into their ears. And that's when the saw them. It was the same Erza and a scarred Natsu with two other soldiers as they opened fire on distant figures down the street.

"MOVE! Get to the bridge as fast as you can!" the male shouted as he took cover behind a burned out car with Erza. Gunfire filled the air as he popped up, firing off a burst.

"W...what are those things..."whispered Mira as she saw numerous grey skinned abominations scurry into the street. The monsters were firing into the backs of fleeing civilians, laughing as they did so. Laxus gulped heavily, seeing a man explode in half, the upper torso slamming into this battled hardened Natsu as the man just shrugged it off.

"FUCK! We have reports of a Brumak Dragneel!" the brunette shouted out as she blind fired over the top of a concrete block, killing several of the hideous monsters.

'Yeah! I heard" the male shouted back as he revved up his lancer. Meeting a charging drone soldier, they met in a single deathmatch as the sparks and hiss of steel filled the air.

'groundwalker..."

"FUCKING DIE!" the male screamed as his saw bit into locust flesh. Blood and gristle flew outward, splashing against his armor as the man took cover once more behind a random piece of rubble. Looking down the street, he could see dozens of the hateful enemy moving up before a deafening roar filled the air. Rounding the corner at the far end of the street, a massive creature from the deepest depths of hell made its appearance. Ducking low as it unleashed a barrage of rocket fire, Natsu ignored the fresh screams from the civilians as he started to gather flames in his mouth. Taking a quick glance, he could see Erza firing a mulcher as Sam and Glenn laid down cover fire.

"DO IT NATSU!" the other male yelled out as he ducked back down, bullets chipping away at his cover.

"FIRE DRAGON"S ROAR! the man bellowed in hate as the funnel of fire raced down the street. It caught monster and human alike, turning them to flaming matchsticks as the attack bore on. Slamming into the Brumak's chest, it toppled backwards from the blow. It was at that point the recording stopped, Scarlet having picked it up before powering it down.

"That Natsu was stranded in that universe for five years, Erza for one. Those same monsters invaded Magnolia and killed almost a quarter of the city in less than two hours. They lost Jet, Droy, Laki, Bicslow, Nab, and Vejeeter to them. Any semblance of mercy to their enemies died with their friends" Scarlet finished. Looking around, she could see the absolute anguish and terror on many of their faces as the female visitor tried to remain strong.

"Those things were awful..." Happy said in a scared tone.

"Do you understand why they are like that now? Why they kill to protect?"

"Yes..." the kind old master relented as he looked at the two. " Such nightmarish monstrosities! They really fight such things for such a long time!? And so many people died in that single video!"

"How can we help?" asked Natsu as he tried to shake the images of himself carrying a rifle.

"It's simple. Get stronger. Find universe's and help them. But before that happens we will help you train. Also, our Levy will help your guild build portal guns for easier travel. But for now, we will continue to answer any more questions as long as it doesn't pertain to 137-C. There are things...we don't discuss..understand?"

"Okay...so..uh...other me? Your dating several women right? How is that going?"

"It's awesome! Sure the first month was a little rocky, but we make it work! Then on Christmas, Mira and Erza wanted to have sex with me! So they drag me back home and then Lucy is waiting there! So then Lucy and Erza start ki..." the pinkette was telling them before finding himself smashed into the floorboards by a very angry looking Erza.

"DON"T TELL OTHERS ABOUT OUR LOVE LIFE!" she roared as purple waves of anger rose from her body. Ignoring the non-responsive mage that was her boyfriend, the woman slowly calmed down as the foolish male rested in the small crater that was now the floor. Moving through the hall, Scarlet continued to answer numerous questions about the multiverse as the mages tried to gain any advantage in the dramatic turn their lives had taken.

Ahhh...hope that ending is okay. Wasn't really sure how to end this one since I wanted to give the 200-ab's a little limelight. And to clarify, that locust battle is already done during a few month time skip long ago. So don't go bothering me about it. Anyway, I tried to make this more a of Bisca Evergreen chapter, but then remembered the arrest of Erza so had to fit that in. I figured the concil would step up the threat level with death of dark mages instead of just a smashed building. Also..if your curious how the pairings are Natsu+ Lucy, Erza, Lisanna, Juvia, Bisca. Mira+Evergreen Cana+Levy Grey+Laki. I mean, probably wont see this reality again except for a side note. Just hoped everybody enjoyed it and I would really...really...REALLY Like some reviews beside the two or three I average every chapter! Ahhh..they fuel my writing...

Mira: Say Ever...

Evergreen: Hmmm?

Mira: *kisses the woman she loves* Since we didn't get to do that in the chapter...

Evergreen: Bout damn time! Author! Sign us out! *kisses Mira back*

This is thehappy signing off!
