Hey, all my fellow fairy tale fans, happy late new year. This was supposed to be out with chapter 7 yesterday, but I forgot. Sorry anyway, I hope you have enjoyed the story so far or at least hate it enough to come back to complain about either way. Welcome to episode 6, or do I say chapter six eh whatever
No jokes this time, promise
I'll be Mooo-ving on with the story.
I'm so sorry
In the small town of clover, you'll find a building where some of the guild masters go to hold conferences and talk about how things have been going in the magical world.
"Hey, have the guy's heard that mysterious wizard appears again," a man asked. His name was goldmine; he was the leader of a lower rank guild.
"Yes, I heard someone called out," Goldmine to see the master of the blue pegasus guild bob walking up to him.
"Well, if it isn't, the leader of blue Pegasus didn't expect to see you here," Goldmine said, surprised.
"Oh come on, just because I'm the leader of one the big three doesn't' mean I can't hang out," Bob tells him, " I think the old hag is somewhere around here too," Bob says as he looks.
"But back to that mysterious wizard," Bob said, facing the elderly man. "I'm sure every guild in fiore is looking for him," Bob said, "especially phantom."
Goldmine nodded, " it figures those jerks would be looking for him," Gold mine said as he ate his kabob. "If another guild were to find him, they'd probably be a huge threat."
"Yea," Bob said, " I guess we can call this the race to find the" Bob stopped at stroked his chin "what did they call him to know."
"how do we know it's a him" someone called out "it could as well be a girl to"
"Who cares, but whoever finds the wizard first is definitely going to up their Job score," Someone else shouted.
Goldmine just smiled 'well then, it looks like the games have begun.'
Enter The Dark Guild Eisenwald
Back at Kunugi station are heroes look from afar as people crowd around the train station. "I guy with a scythe, and his lackeys took over the train."
"Really," someone shouted, "you don't think the dark guilds are back."
"I can get cars or boats but, why a train," Lucy asked.
"it doesn't seem like a good choice for getting away's" Happy says
"then I guess it's up to us to figure out where they're going," Gray said while he sat in his underwear.
"Your naked, Gray," Lucy shouted.
"Am I?" he asked in a calm tone.
"the military already been called to action, so it's only a matter of time," Lucy said
"I hope you're right, Lucy," Erza said as she drove off.
On the train Eisenwald was on, Eirgor sliced a chair in half while attacking Kageyama, "so let me get this straight you allowed a wizard to see the Lullaby flute, and you let him get away," Eirgor shouted.
"But it's not like he knows anything about our plan, sir," Kageyama pleaded, "and even if he did, there's no way he could stop us on his own"
Eirgor sliced at Kageyama again, cutting off part of his ear "we can't take any chances," Eirgor told him, "fortunately, we have a plan in place."
"Yeah, the thing in Oshibana," Kageyama said
"Well, lure this wizard into a trap and any who are foolish enough to follow," Eirgor said
Erza burst through the town, causing people to jump out of her way. "Erza, you need to slow down," Gray shouted while holding onto the top of the car "at this rate, you'll lose all of your magic power before the fighting starts."
"then I'll have to rely on hand to hand combat," Erza said "besides, I have you and Natsu with me" she looked back to see the sickly dragon-slayer
"there was something I was supposed to tell you, Lucy," Happy told her.
"Yeah," Lucy pondered.
"I can't remember," he says, "I think it was your-"
"Totally sick for real," Natsu groans as he slumps into the chair.
"Really," Lucy shouted.
Natsu then climbs up to the window and almost falls out.
"Natsu, you're going to fall," Lucy shouts as she grabs him.
"that's what I'm aiming for," he groaned.
"Well, if it wasn't that, then what was it," Happy said to himself.
"Lucy, hungry."
"Fishy"
"I like to fish."
Lucy gives him a death glare as the mobile bounces of another rock, "why are you saying I'm weird."
oshibana station comes into view, and there appears to be smoke "what's going on there" Erza ponders
At the station, people gather in a crowd to see what was going on. One of the conductors stood outside, trying to get the crowd to stand back, "pleaser, the station has been closed; we ask you to stand back."
Erza pops up and puts a hand on his shoulder "what's going on," she asks.
"why would I tell you, lady," he tells her. She then punches him in the face knocking him out the preceding to ask the next conductor, who she then knocks out.
"Seems like her questioning method is a little counterproductive," Lucy said as she watched Erza.
"She has her own way of getting things done," Gray tells her in his underwear.
"where are your clothes," Lucy asks him.
"Eisenwald is inside. Come, let's go," Erza instructed as the wizards ran inside. "And then An army platoon stormed in, but it seems they haven't returned yet." Erza explained, "It's likely that they engaged Eisenwald in battle."
They came across stairs to see that the whole army has been incapacitated. "they've been wiped out," Happy says as he overlooks the knights.
"they had no idea they were up against a wizard guild," Erza said, "we have to stop Eisenwald and fast."
They come into the main room where they find the entire Eisenwald guild waiting for them "step into our parlor wizards," Eirgor shouts as he stands up, "tell me what guild are you with."
"We are not part of a guild," Erza tells him, "but you will be coming into custody with us."
Eirgor laughs at Erza statement, "I'm sorry, but that's not happening."
Lucy put Natsu on the ground and started to shake him, "come on, Natsu, we need your help!" Lucy shouts
"Good luck," Happy tells her, "between the train, the car, and you're shaking, it's a motion sickness times three."
"But I'm not a vehicle," Lucy shouts.
Kageyama Glares at Natsu "you; it's your fault I got in trouble with Eirgor. get up"
"That voice," Natsu whispers.
"What are you scoundrels after? What do you plan to do with the Lullaby?" Erza shouted
"You don't know? What's here at the train station?" Eirgor asked as he rose up
"He flew!"
"It's Wind Magic!"
"You plan on broadcasting the Lullaby?" Erza questions
"I wonder how many thousands of noisy onlookers are gathered around here? And if you increase the volume, it'll reverberate throughout the city."
"The melody of death, that is! Do you plan on making innocent people listen to the flute's lullaby? It's a purge." Erza shouted
"I'm purging the fools who guard their own rights and safety without even knowing there are those whose same rights have been stolen away." Eirgor told her, "Their sin is living without knowing that this world isn't just." he explains
"And so The Reaper has come to punish them!"
"You're not going to get your rights back by doing something like this," Lucy tells them.
Eirgor laughs, "you think we care about that? No, all we want is power," eirgor tells her.
"We're bringing forth a new age of darkness, "Kageyama tells her "of course, by the time it gets here, your pest will be long gone" he then attacks Lucy, but Natsu blocks the attack with his fist.
"Eisenwald dude," he shouts, "I thought I recognized that voice."
"Natsu, your back to normal," Lucy says happily.
"Looks like we have a party," Natsu says, smirking.
Lucy looks at the members of Eisenwald "you think we can take em," Lucy asks, "they outnumber us 3 to 1."
Natsu smiles, "that makes it more fun."
'You fell right into my trap,' Eirgor thought to himself. 'Everything is going exactly as I planned.'
There are some bastards that I must make sure to hear this flute.
"I leave them to you men," Eirigor shouts, "show them the terror of the dark guild Eisenwald" he then vanished away.
"Natsu and Gray go after them," Erza instructed, "if the two of you work together, nothing can stop you, not even Eirgor the reaper."
"Aye," they shout before running off.
"They ran off," one of the members shouted.
"they're going after Eirgor."
"I got them," one of the members shouted. "I, the great Rayule, will take them down."
"I'll come with you," Kageyama tells him, "that pink-haired dimwit going to pay eager to get his revenge on Natsu, he disappears with his Shadow Magic.
"Will catch up with them once we're done here," Erza tells Lucy.
Lucy nodded; she had to admit she was a bit nervous.
With the top members of Eisenwald gone, the rest of the guild gets ready to fight Erza and Lucy."You know it's a shame you two are almost too cute to kill," one of the member's state.
"You don't frighten us. "Erza then pulls a Magic sword out of nowhere." know this is your only chance surrender, and you may leave here alive."
[###Titania theme###]
"You don't frighten us, Lady," one of the member's shots "we have tons of magic swordsmen" Giving no reply to their taunts, Erza rushes at her opponents and defeats an entire group of them with one slash, breaking all their swords and swiftly decimates another group of Eisenwald thugs with a similar slash of her sword.
"I'll show you," a few minor members attempt to attack her with a combined light beam attack; Erza jumps and then Requips her sword into a spear in mid-air and swiftly attacks them with it, defeating the whole group before they can release their Magic.
Another group charged Erza, but Erza had reached the ground; she then requipped once more into twin swords, "it changed into twin swords," one of the members stated
"I've never seen someone Requip as fast as this chick,"
"Whats Requip" Lucy asks.
"It's not too different from your keyes Lucy," Happy tells her, "the user can keep weapons they have stored in another dimension, and when they change, it's called requiping."
"Amazing," Lucy says, shocked.
After defeating a few more of the Dark Guild's members, Erza exchanges the twin swords for a large ax, landing a fierce blow on the dumbfounded guild members crowded all around her.
As the Eisenwald Guild Members begin to wonder how she can change weapons so fast
"I'll lend a hand," Lucy shouts.
"You sure, Lucy," Happy says
"{Open gate of the giant crab cancer}" Cancer then appears," you need some help, baby," a few of the guild members aim for him. Cancer easily defeats a few Eisenwald members,
"Nice shot, Lucy," Erza told her, "but does he have to say baby after every sentence."
"Afraid so," Lucy tells her.
Erza looks around and notices that there are still a lot of opponents left "this is starting to get annoying," she lets out a sigh. "Lucy, hang back," her armor begins coming off. shocking the Eisenwald guild members.
"so the rumors are true," Happy started, getting a confused look from Lucy.
"well, while most magic swordsmen can usually only requip their weapons as they fight, Erza can fight while recapping her armor to increase her abilities." He states that "it's a technique that only Erza has it's called The Knight."
The smoke clears, revealing Erza in her heavens wheel armor. Lucy and the Eisenwald Guild Members are dazzled at Erza's appearance.
"know dance my swords," Erza unleashes a barrage of swords, wiping out the last of the Eisenwald members. Enraged at his fellow Guild Members' "alright, you're dealing with me now," Byard tries to attack Erza with Light Magic, but Erza defeats him without any effort.
"I don't believe it. Where did this chick come from," the last member asks; he looks to see cancer about to attack him; he vanishes into the wall causing cancer to hit "sorry I missed."
"Damn it," Lucy shouts; she turns to Erza and smiles, "don't worry, I got him," Erza nodded, and Lucy runs off.
Erza looks at the already defeated guild members; she falls to her knees, struggling to stand. 'Gray was right; I wasted too much power on the magic mobile' she looks in the direction Natsu and Gray went 'please don't fail me, boys'
"What was Erza thinking" Gray shouted
"Clearly, she wasn't," Natsu shouted, "everyone knows fire and Ice don't mix."
"I don't need you. I can take Eirgor all by myself," they shouted in unison "are you copying me."
they notice that the walkway splits, "Which way do we go."
"I guess we have to split up" they stood back to back, each going a different way. "Natsu, we're going against an evil freak who's about to unleash a deadly spell," Gray told him, "if you find him give him a thrashing.
Natsu nodded, "don't worry, I will," Natsu told him. "I'm going to burn him to a crisp," the two laughed before realizing what was going on.
"Don't die on me," Gray said under his breath.
"what"
"Nothing just gets going," gray shoes before running off."
Gray notices a loudspeaker and comes to a stop "that's it, Eirgor going to play the Lullaby flute through the speaker system" Gray runs up to the studio room and kicks the door down.
Gray enters the studio "there's nobody here," Rayule appears, hanging from the ceiling. "Maybe I was wrong about them playing it over the PA Rayule then attacks Gray with five strings of his Magic Urumi, but Gray dodges it.
"Lucky guess, kid," Rayule tells him, "but are plan isn't that obvious"
Meanwhile, outside, More people have gathered in front of the station. Someone sees Erza and shouts, "Hey, what's going on."
"If you value your lives, then you will leave this place at once," Erza shouts, "this station has been attacked by a dark guild, there threatening to play a deadly spell over the loudspeakers. I beg you run as far as you can."
Not thinking once the entire crowds erupt in a panic running away from the station 'why would send them into a panic like that," one of the conductors ask.
"I much rather that then watch all these people die," Erza told them, "and you all need to evacuate as well."
Erza watched as the crowd disappeared "know that everyone's clear from the station I wonder what Igor's next move will be," Erza tuns in shock as a giant wind barrier surrounds the train station.
"there no escape from my Urmi" Rayule attacks Gray by swinging the strings of Urumi, but he dodges Rayule tries to attack Gray once again,
"{Ice-Make: Shield.}" a giant wall of ice forms in front of Gray
"This punk uses Ice magic," Rayule asks, shocked.
"{Ice-make knuckle}" a bunch of fist from the ground attacking Rayule, knocking him through a wall "this is your last chance to tell me what you're really up to"
"Eirgor wind barrier should be up by now."
"His what," Gray asks.
"Eirgor created a wind barrier to keep your insects from escaping"
Back outside, Erigor confronted Erza, "you know I wish I had time to fight you," Eirgor boast, "you might have been a challenge."
"But alas, I have no time to play with you now" Eirgor then uses his Magic to push Erza into the wind barrier.
"Erigor," Erza jumps at the barrier, only to be knocked back.
"Don't even try." Eirgor tells her, "This magic wind wall is one-way: you can only pass from outside to inside." he explains, "If you try to exit from the inside, the wind will cut you to shreds."
"What in the world are you up to," Erza asks.
"Thanks to you, idiots, I've wasted quite a lot of time." Eirgor tells her, "If you'll excuse me" Eirgor then flies away, leaving a confused Erza
"Wait!" Erza shouted, 'Damn that, Erigor. Where could he be going,' Erza thought? 'So he wasn't targeting this station, after all, damn it, I've had enough of your riddles.'
Gray pins Rayule on a wall. "Let me get straight to the point. Tell me your plan or else."
Rayule laughs, "the only reason we took over this station was to block traffic to the finale stop" rayule then faces Gray, "the biggest hit in history going down in clover."
"Soon we will have vengeance," he then pushed Gray off him attacking him gain with his Urmi. "Cause in clover, the guild master's are holding their annual conference."
Gray was shocked; he didn't expect that. "So, you plan on targeting some of the most powerful wizards on the planet."
Rayule just laughed, "when Lullaby plays, and those old fogies won't know what hit them," he then wraps his Urmi around Gray.
Gray struggles for a bit and smiles, the air around his becoming cold. "I should thank you," he says as the string starts to become Ice. "You just told me the whole plan and made our lives so much easier."
Before Rayule could realize what was going on, a wave of Ice attacked him.
At another part of the station, Natsu was running around looking for Eirgor "come out and fight me," he shouted as Kageyama followed him. cover in his shadow
Gray walked out of the room smoke in the air around him was cold. Behind him, the reflection of a frozen man could be seen, his face covered in terror "there are things much more terrifying than a dark guild," Gray said aloud, "and don't you forget it."
