Hey fairy tail fans, welcome to the next episode of a fairy tail re-told; last week, I said daily updates, and I think I will start to be able to complete that goal. However, multiple chapters a day might also be a thing as a bonus, but that might mean no update the next day and so forth. With all that nonsense out of the way, let's get on with the story.
Last time on a fairy tail re-told
Natsu: we were successful in rescuing Wendy and Happy from the oracion seis
Carla: but we were stopped by the scoundrel Racer
Gray: don't worry. I got this
Racer: we'll see about that punk
Gray: bring it on
[##jellal theme##]
The worthwoods sea usually is a peaceful place. however, today its peace is disrupted by a lone man whose appearance is baffling to our heroes as they rush to save Erza's life; Natsu speeds through the forset the only sounds are of his feet hitting the dirt Wendy was slung over his shoulder, and happy and Carla were under his arm "Natsu" Happy muttered coming too
"You okay little buddy," Natsu asked, not breaking concentration with where he was running "just try and rest up right now," he told Happy, who shook his head in disagreement
"but Jellal is out there," he argued, to which Natsu gave a scowl
"I know," he said, "but don't worry," the dragon slayer said. "I'm going to make sure he doesn't hurt any of us ever again," Natsu assured his best friend as he ran deeper into the forest
"Natsu"
coming to a stop, Natsu looked around "what" he asked 'am I hearing things now.'
"what's wrong," Happy asks, concerned.
"Natsu, can you hear me."
"This tree is talking to me," Natsu responded.
Gray vs. Racer: death grand Prix
"Natsu, can you hear me."
"Yes, great tree," Natsu answered, which completely confused Happy; who was Natsu talking to, and where was this great tree 'man? I could go for some fish right now," the blue feline thought.
"great, what? This is Hibiki from blue pegasus," Hibiki said, revealing himself to be working on his archive behind Lucy, still standing to watch over Erza "but whatever, I'm glad I was able to find you," he said " no one else is responding"
"You're a ventriloquist."
"knock it off," Hibiki told Natsu, "and keep your voice down, no telling what spies the enemy has in the woods," Hibiki warned Natsu. "That's why I am speaking to you like this; pretty neat, huh, do have Wendy and the cat, "Hibiki asked.
"Yeah," Natsu answered. "Wendy unconscious, but Happy's coming too," Natsu told him as Happy looked on with confusion; he was still a little drained from trying and figuring out what was going on.
"good" Hibiki pulled up a picture of Natsu. "I will send a map to the current camp we've set up."
"wait," Natsu argued, "what map? Stay out of my head," Natsu then said an upload bar above his head before he felt a click in his brain and then ran off, which confused Happy even more.
"Natsu," Happy said in concern, "I think it's time you seek professional help."
"can't," Natsu told him. "I need to follow this map inside my brains," he shouted.
"he's farther gone than I thought," Happy said aloud.
"This is awesome," Natsu said. "I can even see where Erza is, thanks gre- I mean Hibiki."
"Please hurry," Hibiki said. "I'm not sure how much more time we have left."
Looking back, Lucy smiled, 'figures Natsu would be the one to find her' relaxing a bit, Lucy asked something that had been on her mind for a while "hey, how were you able to send Natsu are location."
"I simply used archive magic to compress and send the information," Hibiki said, "it's a faster way of communication than saying it verbally."
"I didn't know that was possible," Lucy said
"it's still a fairly new kind of magic," Hibiki told her. "I'm not surprised."
smiling, Lucy looked back at Erza; she felt her grip on her hand start to weaken as Erza shifted in pain "just hold out a little longer; Natsu is on his way."
Meanwhile, Gray's standoff with Racer is about to erupt into a violent clash. "I must say," Racer said smiling, "no one has ever managed to stop me twice," Racer said, "to save face, I'll give yours a thrashing" before Gray could respond, Racer appeared behind him. "I can kick your ass and catch up to that fire-breathing freak in no time."
"damn," Gray shouted as Racer kept reappearing, "he's so fast."
"I'm about to run you over," he said, "and I feel it won't take me very long."
[##Haja no Sen Kaze##]
"oh yeah," Gray shouted as he shot a sheet of Ice in Racer's direction, only for him to speed out of the way.
"you'll have to do better than that," Racer shouted as he appeared behind Gray and kicked him in the back "you wanna beat me" Racer called, "you need to pick up the pace."
"how am I supposed to fight this guy," Gray asked before Racer punched him to the ground.
"hears the deal," Racer said. "I'll cut you some slack if you stay on the ground," Racer smirking, "cause that's where you belong."
"over my dead body," Gray spat.
"I can arrange that," Racer told him as he did another pose "let's kick it into overdrive {death grand Prix}," Racer shouted as the sound of motor vehicles sounded off in the distance. A group of magic cycles soon overruns gray.
"the hell," Gray shouted as they soon surrounded him,
"like my motor show from hell," Racer called. He hopped on a red bike and slammed into Gray, who managed to land on his feet "man, he's one tuff kid."
"You can ride these scrape heaps," Gray asked.
"watch your tongue, Ice boy," Racer told him "these things are as nearly fast as I am," Racer said, "and they can tear chumps like you apart," he shouted before driving off.
"That sounds like a challenge," Gray said before hopping on one of the bikes "look, this chump managed to tame a ride," Gray shouted. In contrast, Racer looks impressed, "and I guess I should thank you for adding a SE plug" a SE plug, if you remember, allows wizards to power any magic vehicle they find with their magic power 'it's going to be tough with this thing constantly sucking my magic away' Gray thought to himself, 'but I need to put the brakes on this guy once and for all' Gray said, "you and I let's go."
"You really wanna race against me," Racer asked, "fine, but it's your funeral," as the to speed off loud crash echoed through the forest as the pair drove through the forset as "gotta say for some loser who choose the alliance you're not half bad."
"what was that," Gray asked as he drove up close to Racer "{Ice make: lance}" Gray shouted as the spears hit Racer, who emerged without a scratch.
"there not as sharp as I thought," he said, smiling.
"I'm still right on your tail, man," Gray shouted as they too landed on a hill and raced down.
"My turn," Racer shouted, "{high side rush}" a group of tires formed into the air, and all fell towards Gray, who managed to slide under them, but "I'm impressed, Ice boy," Racer said now the death Grand Prix could start he then shot missiles at Gray who barely managed to dodge them again.
"damn it," Gray said as the smoke cleared, " that was too close for comfort."
"what's the matter" Racer shouted "too much for ya," he shouted as he prepared more weaponry which Gray smirked
'I need to protect Erza, ' Gray said aloud. 'I refuse to lose to this clown.'
Lyon and Sherry ran to where they heard all the explosions. Sherry sighed, "where do you think those explosions came from," she asked.
"Gray, or Natsu," he responded, "pick one" as soon as he said, that Racer drove by, shocking the two.
"that was"
"Racer," Lyon said as Gray then appeared again, landing where they where
"Lyon," Gray shouted, "Your timing couldn't be more perfect; hop on," Gray told his old rival.
"what"
"You heard me."
Soon Lyon was on the magic cycle as Sherry stood back, "but Lyon," she argued.
"it'll be fine," he said, "you stay here on standby," Lyon told her.
"Okay," Sherry asked, confused, "whatever you say," she told him as they drove off, "what could that entail, I wonder."
"did you find Wendy" Lyon asked as Gray drove forward
"yeah," he said? "Happy, too," he told him. "Natsu's currently trying to get back to Erza," he explained "we need to hold this guy off until then, or at least take him down," Gray said, "and I can't use my magic while driving. This thing."
smiling "so you're admitting you can't do this without me," Lyon joked "fine, I'll show you some real Ice make magic
"just attack the guy already," Gray shot back at his fellow student, who then got into his fighting stance, which shocked Gray cause he was using two hands "what, Lyon, you never use two hands."
[##Koori Ha Enbu ost##]
smiling at this, Lyon looked back at him "that is the way Ur taught us, right," Lyon said, which caused Gray to smile, "{ice make: eagle}."
hearing this, Racer barely had time to react before Lyons attacked destroyed his bike, which shattered into pieces "you got him"
"no, I don't think so."
racer then appeared above them "you're going to pay for trashing my ride," he shouted as then kicked and shattered the bike Gray and Lyon were on
"Now," Gray called, "{Ice make}."
"Ape"
"Hammer"
Racer dodged the two attacks causing them to shatter on impact "if you two might need some faster maker magic there," Racer said as he buzzed around, "but you're going to need to go a lot faster if you want to beat me."
"damn it," Gray shouted.
"Keep you cool," Lyon said, "he's coming at four a clock. We can beat this guy if we work together," Lyon told Gray.
"keep cool, huh" soon, the two removed their shirts "then let's get going," Gray shouted as they stood back to back.
"huh," Racer asked, confused 'why'd they take off their clothes'
"Sherry, who also witnessed this smiled, "stripping together must be a way of showing there, love," she said with a big smile on her face.
"FIre when I give the word and don't hold back," Lyon ordered as Racer sped towards them, "there he's right in front of us."
"{Ice make Geyser}" Gray unleashed his strongest attack, which Racer managed to doge by running up its side.
"{Ice make: snow dragon}" Lyon sent his strongest move and ended up with the same result Racer then shattered though and knocked both of them on their face.
"what's the matter" he taunted "am I too fast for ya" as Lyon landed, he looked up and noticed something very strange about the birds; they were moving extremely fast, then it clicked, "as fun as this is, it's time for the final thrashing."
"oh my," Sherry asked, "are all of the oracion seis this powerful."
"don't worry, Gray," Lyon assured his friend, "we've won," he said. "I just figured out how we're going to beat this guy."
Meanwhile, back in Magnolia, Gajeel had returned after a long search for Natsu and his team "nothing," he said as Mira frowned, "but it looks like the coalition is looking into the dark guild mess cause I was able to get something on the oracion seis" he said he handed over the paper to Mavis.
"Mabey, they asked Natsu and the others for help," Mira reasoned.
"maybe," Mira said, "this Brain fellow," Mavis asked, "it appears he worked at the magical research burrow."
really" Mira asked, walking up to Mavis, "any clue to his identity."
"according to this, they're looking into it," she told the barmaid, "but what's most troubling is that there might be a connection to the R- system and the tower of heaven."
"what," Mira asked, whereas Gajeel was just confused decided to leave the two their thoughts and grab some Iron to munch on
"if I wasn't worried before, I am now," Mavis said, a hint of fear in her voice " will we ever leave its shadow," Mavis said, "he could be following in Jellals footsteps.
"I know you're worried, Mavis," Mira told her, "but remember this Natsu we're talking about," she said, "and he and his team are out there, right now, probably making sure no one can't use it for evil."
Mavis nodded, " I guess you're right," Mavis said, letting out a sigh. "I just am surprised this is the route taken," Mavis said. "I didn't expect the guilds to react so quickly."
"let's not forget the new magic council," Mira said, "if Yajima was right in his last report, they might crack down on Magnolia."
"Hmm," Mavis agreed, "we should be cautious" she then looked at Mira, "have you heard from Mystogen."
"not since the thunder legion incident," Mira responded. "I hear he looked like Jellal."
"it's complicated," Mavis told her. 'Natsu,' Mavis said to herself, 'be careful, my child, I won't be able to bail you kids out this time."
back in the worthwoods sea, Lyon was explaining something in Gray's ear, who was nodding "what are they talking about" Sherry asked
"and if all goes according to plan, we got him," Lyon said
"are you crazy" Gray shouted
"well, that's the plan," Lyon told him "don't like it, then I'll just do it myself" before Gray could respond, he was frozen in a shard of Ice and raised above the ground "Lyon, quit messing around, you can't do this by yourself."
"Just watch me," Lyon told him.
"That wasn't a nice thing to do to your friend," Racer told him.
"if you think he and I are friends, you gladly are mistaken," Lyon told him, "we simply studied under the same master."
"Lyon," Sherry asked.
"good Sherry, you're here," he said, "we can take this guy on ourselves," Lyon said, "and prove once and for all the power of joining a guild."
"you know being arrogant will lead to your downfall," Racer told him, "besides, even with your friend's help, you didn't have a chance of beating me."
"now whose being arrogant," Lyon shouted.
"that so," Racer said as he got ready to attack again.
"{doll attack: rock doll}" Sherry shouted. A large rock monster appeared from the earth and charged Racer, who managed to dodge all the attacks "he's fast," Sherry said as Racer continued to attack the monster.
"neat trick," Racer taunted, "but this thing is practically standing still."
"then. try this {wood doll}" Sherry created a tree monster that attempted to grab Racer; he dodged again, only for a bunch of branches to surround him
"You got me," he cried, only for him to break out seconds later
"what," Sherry asked, only for Racer to knock her down
"{Ice make: snow tiger]" Lyon shouted, only for Racer to dodge it "come and get me, slowpoke," Lyon taunted, which made Racer laugh
"the only slowpoke is you," Racer told him as he gave chase
coming to a stop, Lyon smiled "your punch won't do anything if you lack momentum," Lyon told him, "I can prove that to you," Lyon told him {Ice make:hedghog}" Lyon shouted. Racer came to a stop when a punk of spike came from Lyons back "now lets a test that theory hall we" Lyon said as he ran off "what's the matter racer too afraid to hit me."
Racer smiled s Lyon created more distance between them"{gear change: red zone}" in a flash, Racer appeared behind Lyon and slammed him in the back, shattering his ice "you think I'd use my top speed on a weakling like you, but since you've been doing so well."
Lyon attempted to keep running, but Racer kept hitting him with his speed "hang on, Lyon," Sherry shouted "; as she tried to catch up, she saw Lyon being tossed around by Racer. however. he had just kept running "where is he going."
"he must be a glutton for punishment," Racer said as he decided to give chase
As Lyon approached the edge of a cliff, he attempted to attack again "{Ice make: eagle}" Racer dodged this attack sending each one into the ground punched Lyon into the ground sending a shock wave into the air
landing in front of Lyon, Racer removed the Ice from one of his attacks and hung it over Lyons' neck "so you really think I can't land a decisive blow," he asked " as fast as I am, I could end you before even knew what hit you" Racer told him as Lyon stared behind "don't get me wrong kid, your skilled, you'd have been fine if never crossed paths with me because I'm one the oracion seis."
Lyon saw the birds again; they were going slower now. A smile formed as the Racer continued his monologue "six demons, six prayers, six unwavering pillars," Racer told him, "and anyone who tries to cut us off pays the final toll."
"just as I thought," Lyon told him, which caused Racer to stop. "I figured your magic out when Gray and I were fighting together," Lyon explained, "the birds were going unbelievably fast," Lyon said "you just alternated our perception of speed," Lyon told him, which caused Racer to back up, "you're just as slow as the rest of us," Lyon said, "but I thought it would harder to beat you, but since you followed me out here, Gray has a clear shot at you."
"what" Racer shouted; he looked back to the large tower of Ice that Gray was in only from the top to shatter, reveling Gray holding a bow and arrow made of Ice
[##fairy tail main theme##]
"finally," Gray shouted, "some fresh air and a stationary target."
"no way he can hit me from there," Racer tried to reason.
"oh, he can," Lyon told him, "if there's one thing I learned," Lyon said between breaths, "is that underestimating Gray or any of his friends is going to be your last and greatest mistake; there's no stopping them."
"Now," Gray shouted, "{Super freeze arrow"} Gray shouted as he shot the arrow at Racer, who was unable to dodge.
"no," Racer shouted, "the attack, it's too fast," he shouted as the blast hit him 'My prayer, to be fast, faster than anyone else' Racer said to himself as his goggles broke, he was blasted back.
Later Gray had made his way over to where Lyon was, "I can't believe that worked," he said as he approached his fellow student.
"I can't believe there are five more just as powerful as him," Lyon said
"and on another note," Sherry said, "can you please include me on your little ruse next time."
"don't look at me," Gray said, "he's the man with a plan."
"Thanks," Lyon muttered.
"can you stand" Gray asked
"think I'll sit a bit longer," Lyon told him.
Racer then shot up, "I got you now," he shouted, his eyes now looking deranged as he removed his jacket, revealing a bomb "in the name of the mighty Oracion seis, I'm taking you to the big slab in the sky."
"what," Gray asked
"he rigged himself with a bomb lacrima," Lyon screamed
"we'll cross the finish line together," Racer said as he ran towards them.
"oh no, you don't'" Gray attempted to stop him with his magic, but wa stopped when he fell to the ground, "damn it, I'm out."
Lyon then jumped and tackled Racer over the cliff, hearing Sherry and Gray call his name as he fell. "Gray, I knew you'd be the death of me," he said before the bomb went, and a large explosion was seen as Sherry let out a scream.
"he can't be gone," she cried as the smoke rose where the explosion went off "this can't be true."
"Lyon!" Gray shouted
Meanwhile, back at Oracion seis hideout, Brain stumbled over as one of his tattoos vanished "racer defeated in battle, impossible" he looked around till he saw Midnight, "it appears I have underestimated our foe," letting out a sigh, Brain stood up again. "I never thought I would have to send him," Brain and smiled "wake up midnight," he called
the sleeping man known as Midnight grumbled as his eyes awakened; he looked over to Brain, smiling, "you have work to do; find our enemy and succumb them to your nightmare."
"Yes," Midnight muttered as he looked over to Brain, "master."
