Claudius's eyes became as red as molten lava, and his skin slowly took on a dark purple hue. Nashi's ethernano overwhelmed him, corrupting his mind, stealing what very little sanity he had left. He let out an evil laugh. A menacing darkness surrounded him, strangely luminescent in its lack of light, and he started growing very quickly. To the shock of all, Claudius then transformed into an enormous dragon, taller than the highest spire atop the Kardia Cathedral.
He soon busted through the stained glass ceiling. Raising his claws, he used the stolen powers of the tengoku wizard to transform each cult member. Their skin became a mixture of many shades of crimson and dark purple, mottled with white specks, and red cracks ran all over their bodies as if their veins flowed with magma. Their eyes became bright red as blood. They could no longer speak, nor could they control their bodies. All they could do was crave the rest of Nashi's magic. They all began to close in on Nashi, Natsu and Lucy.
"Both of you hold on to me and don't let go," said Natsu. Once both of them got a good grip onto him, he used his fire dragon roar to get him, Lucy, and Nashi on the second floor and quickly ran towards a stained glass window and busted through it. Once he landed on the ground he ran away from the church as fast as he could. He ran with both his girls on his back till they reached a safe. They wanted to make sure Nashi was okay.
"Are you alright Nashi?" asked Lucy.
"Yeah, I'm alright." she replied.
Natsu was astounded "Nashi what happened to you? Why are you a teenager!?" he asked.
"Claudius put some kind of spell on me. As a baby my magic is extremely uncontrollable. But as I age my magic becomes stronger and more controllable.".
A loud explosion came from the church. The power of the tengoku wizard had completely corrupted Claudius and the rest of the Orion cult. The church was soon reduced to a pile of rubble and ashes everyone had busted out. Horatio took Lisanna out of there and ran away with her to keep her safe as she was in no shape to fight. Natsu started to smell smoke. Every member of the cult raised their hands and started to set the forest on fire with Nashi's magic. In just a few seconds about four acres of the forest surrounding the church was completely destroyed. Claudius's plan was starting to become a success. He let out a fierce roar as he flew through the air, searching for Nashi's magic, burning everything in his path with his fire breath. Natsu, Lucy and Nashi became horrified by what they witnessed.
Happy flew back and he brought every member of Fairy Tail with him, ready to fight against the cult. Jellal had also shown up ready to fight as Erza convinced him that he could help out a lot with putting an end to this madness.
"Uncle Happy!" Nashi exclaimed with happiness before giving him a great big hug and spun around. "I thought I'd never see you again."
"Nashi?" Happy said in confusion. " But...but you're supposed to be a baby?"
"Happy, we'll explain later. Right now take Nashi and hide." said Natsu
"What!?" cried Nashi. "I can't just hide, you have to let me fight."
"Nashi, we can't lose you again," Lucy said in concern.
"Well, I can't lose you again either! Besides, it's my magic they're using!" Nashi cried.
"I'm with Nashi on this one. If anyone can stop this I bet she can" Happy said agreeingly. "I promise I won't let anything happen to her. You have my word".
Natsu and Lucy agreed they would let her fight with the rest of the guild to stop Claudius's plan. Every member of Fairy tail braced themselves for what was probably going to be the fight of their lives.
"Here, you're probably going to need their help more than me," said Lucy as she handed Nashi the keys for Aquarius, Sagittarius, and Leo. "You know what to do?"
Nashi nodded "I learned from the best mom". Lucy couldn't help but tear up and hug her. Natsu and Happy also joined in and hugged her.
"We love you Nashi." she and Natsu said before going with Happy.
Gildarts walked over to Natsu, curious about who this strange girl was.
"Natsu, who is that?" he asked him.
Natsu smiled proudly, and couldn't hep tearing up as he replied, "My daughter".
