Hello all Storm here with a new chapter! Here we'll be seeing the conclusion of the Wyvern Extermination Job along with…just…just bear with it and hopefully you can all get through the chapter. So, without further ado.

I own nothing

It wasn't long before Wendy and Isaribi had arrived back at town, with the Sky Dragon Slayer having since regained consciousness, while still being shocked at everything she had learned from Grandeeney. With the Sky Dragon having also made her foster daughter promise to keep what she learned a secret from the other Dragon Slayers, that came to the future with her, for now. This was to ensure they didn't do anything reckless, especially the adopted son of Igneel, if he's anything like his father.

Though Wendy was given permission to tell her Cait Shelter teammates, but Grandeeney had made it clear that it'd be best if as few people knew about this, as possible. Something the bluenette couldn't help but agree with, knowing how dangerous it'd be if this information got out. But she had to at least tell her teammates, knowing she couldn't keep a secret like this to herself and needed to at least tell someone.

Eventually, Isaribi landed outside of town and put Wendy on the ground.

"Thank you for getting me out of their Isaribi. Now come on, let's go meet the others!" Wendy said, wanting to check on her friends and make sure they're alright, though the Sea Dragon Slayer looked hesitant to follow her.

"I-I…I don't think that's a good idea. Maybe it'd be better if I just left." Said Isaribi, while looking away, doubting they'll be very welcoming to her after what she did.

Only to look at Wendy, when the bluenette grabbed her hand and smiled reassuringly at her.

"You don't have to worry or be afraid. Everything that happened wasn't your fault, since the only thing you did was hope to be cured. The only one to blame is Amachi, for what he did to you." Wendy said, giving Isaribi's hand a gentle squeeze, with the Second Generation Dragon Slayer gulping, before nodding hesitantly.

"O-okay." Said Isaribi, making Wendy's smile widen, before they began going to where her friend's scents were the strongest, with the two girls soon arriving at the hospital.

Not wanting to waste any more time, Wendy rushed to where her teammates were, while pulling Isaribi along with her, before arriving at their room and going inside. The sudden appearance of the two girls getting the attention of Naruto, Flare, and Carla, along with Natsu and Erza. With the former three being shocked, relieved, and happy at seeing Wendy.

"Wendy!" The three shouted, before getting out of their beds and running over to the Sky Dragon Slayer, while pulling her into a group hug.

"We were so worried! Are you alright?! What happened?!" Carla asked, while looking Wendy over for any sign of injuries.

"How did you manage to escape?!" Said Flare, wondering how Wendy managed to escape whoever captured her.

"And what's she doing here?!" Naruto said, while looking at Isaribi with a scowl, recognizing her as the one who attacked with the Wyverns and kidnapped Wendy.

With the Sea Dragon Slayer flinching at the eyes now on her, with Naruto, Flare, and Carla not looking happy to see her after what she did. The only thing stopping her from trying to run out the door, was when Wendy put a hand on her shoulder.

"Guys, Isaribi is my friend, she's the one who helped me escape and free me." Said Wendy.

"She's the reason you were captured in the first place!" Carla argued, with Isaribi flinching once again, now wishing she had left after bringing Wendy back.

"She didn't have a choice!" Wendy said.

"Enough!" Shouted Erza, silencing everyone, as they turned to look at the redhead, who had a fierce glare on her face that dared any of them to make a sound.

After a moment of silence, Erza nodded, before going over and kneeling in front of Wendy and Isaribi with a reassuring smile.

"Now then, Wendy, right? Would you and Isaribi please tell us exactly what happened and what is going on?" Erza asked, with Wendy and Isaribi nodding, before the two Dragon Slayers began telling them all about Amachi and his experiments on the Wyverns, trying to create Artificial Dragons.

How he tricked Isaribi and turned her into becoming a Dragon Slayer, while forcefully accelerating the Dragonization process, why he captured Wendy and how he reversed the effects of the antibodies in her. All the way up to how Isaribi overheard him admitting he never intended to cure her, that he only saw her as an attack dog that didn't appreciate his "gift".

"I…I know nothing I say or do will ever make up for what I did, but I'm really, really sorry for everything. I just…I just wanted to be normal again." Isaribi said, looking down, while Wendy wrapped an arm around her shoulder.

While the Cait Shelter and Fairy Tail Mages all looked furious to hear everything that Amachi did. With Naruto, Flare, and Carla feeling bad about blaming Isaribi, seeing she didn't have a choice, which only made them angrier at Amachi.

"Lemme at him, lemme at him! He wants to see a Dragon so bad; I'll show him a Dragon!" Natsu said, wanting to beat Amachi within an inch of his life for everything he did.

"Get in line! I'm gonna show that bastard the flames of hell, when I get my hands on him!" Said Naruto, swearing to make Amachi watch as he burns everything he's worked for, before melting his damn face off.

The two would have immediately rushed out to confront Amachi, if not for Erza grabbing them by their collars, stopping them. Even if the Fairy Queen wanted nothing more than to let them go and join them in taking down Amachi, after being painfully reminded of her own childhood from Isaribi's story. She knew they couldn't just rush into things.

"That's enough, both of you. As much as I agree with the sentiment in taking down Amachi, before he realizes Wendy and Isaribi have escaped, we aren't prepared to attack yet. Naruto, Flare, and Carla are still recovering and need to regain their strength, with the same being said for Wendy after everything she went through. The best thing we can do now, is make sure all of us are in top condition, then we can deal with Amachi and his experiments." Said Erza, with Naruto and Natsu scowling, not wanting to admit she was right, but both Dragon Slayers knew that she was, not that either of them liked it.

"Fine, we'll wait." Naruto muttered, with Erza nodding as she let them both go, before looking at Wendy and Isaribi.

"We haven't been properly introduced. I am Erza Scarlet, and this is Natsu Dragneel, we are members of the Fairy Tail Guild." Erza introduced, with Wendy smiling at the older girl.

"I'm Wendy Marvell, a member of Cait Shelter and you've already met my teammates, Naruto, Flare, and Carla. And my new friend, Isaribi." Wendy replied, with the Sea Dragon Slayer waving shyly at them.

"It's nice to meet you both. Now then, Natsu and I will allow you all to get some rest and regain your strength. Once all of you are ready, we'll go deal with Amachi." Said Erza, with the Cait Shelter Mages and Isaribi nodding, before the two Fairy Tail Mages exited the room.

Once the two left the room, Naruto, Flare, and Carla had hugged Wendy again.

"Wendy, are you alright? Are you really alright?" Flare asked, while looking at Wendy in concern, knowing it likely wasn't easy for her with everything that happened, and now the fact that the more she uses her magic, she'll eventually turn into an actual Dragon.

"Yeah, I'm fine, really. It's…just a lot to take in." Muttered Wendy with a strained smile.

Given she now had to accept, that one day, she'll turn into a Dragon from overusing her magic, along with the fact she was from four hundred years in the past, and her foster mother was sealed inside of her. It was a lot for her to take in all at once, while being sure that when she has time to relax, everything that just happened will finally hit her.

Her words made Naruto, Carla, and Isaribi look down. Naruto and Carla due to their inability to save her, and Isaribi for her part in helping kidnap Wendy.

"I'm sorry Wendy, if only I had been stronger, I could have saved you." Naruto said, hating that he wasn't strong enough to save Wendy.

"I couldn't even do anything to help. All I did was get in the way." Said Carla, blaming herself for not even being able to do anything to help, only being good for flying around and carrying the others.

"I don't blame any of you, and I don't blame you either, Isaribi. The only one that I blame is Amachi. So none of you should blame yourselves either. Besides, I should have been the one who was stronger, so that I wouldn't have gotten captured." Wendy said, while looking down, knowing if she had been stronger, she wouldn't have gotten captured in the first place, before she looked up when Naruto put his hands on her shoulder.

"You say that we shouldn't blame ourselves, then you shouldn't blame yourself either, Wendy. None of us could have known just what Amachi was doing or what he planned to do, along with just how many Evolved Wyverns he had to send after us. Even if he hadn't captured either of us, he probably would have just kept sending more until he did. And you are strong Wendy, I know you are. But even so, I promise that nothing like this will ever happen again." Naruto swore, determined to grow stronger to protect his friends.

Wendy looked at Naruto with wide eyes, before looking away with a light blush at how he was looking at her.

"The same for me, next time I will be able to protect you Wendy." Said Carla, refusing to a burden to her companion and teammates again.

"And me, I won't let myself be taken down like before." Flare added, hating how she had been incapacitated, leaving Naruto and Carla to fight alone while Wendy was captured, while refusing to let it happen again.

The Sky Dragon Slayer looked at her teammates, before smiling and nodding.

"Right! We'll all get stronger together!" Declared Wendy, with the others nodding in agreement.

*Timeskip-One Day*

One day has passed since Isaribi and Wendy had arrived back in town, with Naruto, Flare, and Carla being allowed to leave the hospital. Though were still disappointed that they couldn't go after Amachi yet, wanting nothing more than to take the mad scientist down.

With them instead spending time getting to know Erza and Natsu better, wanting to get to know their new allies more. With Naruto, Wendy, and Natsu hitting it off rather well, due to the three being glad to meet more Dragon Slayers, respectively. The three even trading tips for their respective Dragon Slayer Magics, mostly Naruto and Natsu due to how similar their Dragon Slayer Magic was.

Though Isaribi still kept her distance, not used to being around so many people and still feeling guilty about everything she did, all of which turned out to be for nothing.

With the Sea Dragon Slayer currently sitting under a tree on a hill, overlooking the plains around the town, looking out over them with a down cast expression.

"Isaribi." Wendy said, getting the Second Generation Dragon Slayer's attention as she saw the bluenette walking towards her.

"Oh, hey Wendy. What're you doing here?" Isaribi asked, figuring she'd be with her teammates and the Fairy Tail Mages.

"I was looking for you. Why are you out here by yourself?" Questioned Wendy, with Isaribi shrugging as she looked out at the distance.

"I just wanted to be by myself and didn't want to interrupt your reunion with your friends." Isaribi said, having guessed that once Wendy reunited with her friends, she wouldn't want to be around her anymore, not after what she did.

"But you're my friend too." Said Wendy, looking at her in confusion, with the Sea Dragon Slayer suddenly looking at her in shock.

"You…you still wanted to be my friend?" Isaribi said, having believed that now she was free, Wendy wouldn't want anything to do with her.

"Of course I do. Why wouldn't I?" Asked Wendy, while sitting down next to Isaribi.

"Because of every-" Isaribi said, only to be stopped and surprised when Wendy hugged her.

"I already told you, I don't blame you for what happened. You only did all that out of the belief Amachi would cure you. You have no reason to feel guilty about having hope." Said Wendy, with Isaribi looking at her in shock, before she slowly began returning the hug, liking how warm it felt.

"What are you going to do after Amachi's dealt with? Where will you go?" Wendy asked, once they separated, worried of what her friend will do when Amachi's dealt with.

"I…I don't know. I had always hoped to one day be cured, but never really considered where I would go, once I was. Now that I know the truth, I still don't know, but I'm sure I can go anywhere with my wings." Isaribi said with a bitter smile, still saddened that she'll eventually turn into a Dragon.

"You could come with us." Said Wendy, with Isaribi looking at her in confusion.

"What?" Isaribi asked, as Wendy smiled.

"You could come with us back to Cait Shelter! You could meet Master Roubaul and even join the guild, as well as our team! Maybe Master Roubaul can even help you and stop the Dragonization process! And if he can't, then we could ask Natsu and Erza if anyone at Fairy Tail could help us!" Wendy said, smiling at the chance to help her friend, with the Sea Dragon Slayer looking at her in shock.

"You…you want me…to join Cait Shelter?" Isaribi asked, not expecting to get such an offer.

"Yeah, I do, and I'm sure the other do as well. No matter what happened Isaribi, we are your friends. We care about you and will help you anyway we can." Replied Wendy, smiling at her, as Isaribi looked at her with wide tearful eyes.

Before Wendy could react, Isaribi pulled her into a hug and began crying on her shoulder.

"Th-thank you, Wendy…thank you so much!" Isaribi said, having always wanted someone who cared about her and now she finally had it.

Wendy smiled sadly as she returned the hug, swearing that no matter what, she'll make sure that Isaribi never forgets there are people that care about her.

*With Flare*

Meanwhile, back in town, Flare was sitting on a tree branch, looking towards the setting sun, while running her fingers through her hair.

The redhead then looked when she saw Naruto jump up and sit beside her.

"The sunsets here don't compare to the ones back home." Naruto said, with Flare nodding in agreement, given back in sun Village they always had a perfect view of the sunsetting in front of the Eternal Flames shrine.

"Are you alright?" Naruto asked, while looking at his friend.

"Yes, I'm fine Naruto-kun." Replied Flare, almost immediately.

"You're lying." Stated Naruto, with Flare looking at him with a frown.

"No I'm not." Flare retorted.

"Yes you are. You're combing your fingers through your hair; you only do that when somethings bothering you." Said Naruto, being able to see the signs of when something is bothering Flare, with the redhead frowning before forcing herself to stop brushing her hair.

"Flare, you can tell me if somethings wrong. We're friends, aren't we?" Naruto asked.

"Of course we are! It's just…" Said Flare, before looking down nervously.

"It's just what?" Asked Naruto.

"I've been thinking about…maybe…learning other types of magic." Flare said quietly, with Naruto blinking at her and tilting his head.

"Really? That's great, it's a good idea to learn other types of magic. But why would that be bothering you?" Naruto said, wondering why Flare would be bothered by that.

"Because I already have my Crimson Hair! It was a gift from the Eternal Flame, and now I'm considering learning other types of magic! That's an insult to the gift I received, that I'd use other types of magic besides it!" Said Flare, hating the idea that she would be disrespecting her homes guardian by not relying only on the blessing Atlas Flame gave her.

Though Flare was silenced, when she felt Naruto grab her hand, while seeing her friend and crush smile at her.

"I think dad would be fine with you learning more magic. As long as it meant you were able to protect yourself and those you care about. And just because you'd have other types of magic, doesn't mean you still wouldn't use your Crimson Hair. In fact, you could find other types of magic that will improve it and allow you to manipulate your hair in different ways. That way, you'd still only use your Crimson Hair while having a wider variety of ways to use it." Naruto said, with Flare looking at him in surprise, before looking down thoughtfully, having not considered that.

And seeing it as a way to continue honoring the Eternal Flame, by improving the blessing it gave her and using it to protect her loved ones.

"And you know, I never told you this, but I always really loved your hair." Naruto said, smiling at Flare, as her head snapped towards him in surprise.

"R-really?" Asked Flare, while grabbing a strand of her hair, with Naruto nodding.

"Yeah, I think it's a beautiful color and know that whenever I see it, I know you're close by. And you were always so happy whenever you were taking care of it, even more so after Atlas Flame gave you his blessing. And everytime I saw you smile; I knew I wanted to protect it, no matter what." Naruto said, with Flare looking at him with wide eyes, before looking away with a blush on her face and a shy smile.

"Thank you, Naruto-kun. That really means a lot." Said Flare, with Naruto nodding.

"Anytime Flare. You're my friend and I hate seeing you upset." Replied Naruto, with Flare nodding, while hating that they were only friends.

But she hoped to eventually change that. Though knew at the moment, their main priority was the Job and taking Amachi down.

*Timeskip-Two Days*

"Fire Dragon's Claw!"

"Blumenblatt!"

"Sea Dragon's Encircling Deluge!"

"Sky Dragon's Claw!"

"Hair Shower: Firefly Flame!"

"Hell Flame Dragon's Roar!"

Naruto, Flare, and Wendy's attacks blasted away all of the Mages that Amachi had employed under him, while Erza in her Heaven's Wheel Armor, Natsu, and Isaribi were dealing with all the Evolved Wyvern. With most of them being more draconic in appearance, along being different colors besides green or white, with some being blue, yellow, black, brown, red, even a few rainbow colored ones.

After three days, the Cait Shelter team was finally back at full strength and ready to take Amachi down. All of them having headed for Amachi's lab, thanks to Isaribi telling them where it was, while seeing the mad scientist had prepared for them. Having released all his Evolved Wyverns and sent all his hired help, including Misumi and Yoroi, to deal with them.

Unfortunately for Amachi, they were making quick work of all of them, with Erza, Natsu, and Isaribi dealing with the Evolved Wyverns, while Naruto, Wendy, and Flare dealt with the Mages.

"You call these things Dragons?! Igneel wouldn't even need to use his fire to take these things down! Now come out here, so we can beat the crap out of you!" Natsu shouted once they had defeated all the Mages and slain all the Evolved Wyverns.

"It's over Amachi, your forces are defeated, your Evolved Wyverns are dead! Give yourself up now and we'll beat you within an inch of your life!" Demanded Erza.

"Don't you mean, or we'll beat you within an inch of your life?" Carla asked.

"I know what I said." Erza stated, having every intention of making Amachi suffer for what he's done, something the others all agreed with.

Meanwhile, Amachi was panicking as he rushed towards Fafnir's containment cell, knowing he had nothing left to throw at the Mages. Knowing he had no choice, but to release Fafnir to stall the Mages while he escaped.

"Fafnir, I order you to-GAH!" Amachi gasped as the moment the door opened, Fafnir's hand shot out and grabbed him, before lifting the mad scientist up to his eyes.

"You should have taken your chances with the Mages, fool." Fafnir said.

The Cait Shelter and Fairy Tail Mages, and Isaribi arrived just in time to see Amachi be alive devoured by Fafnir, with the Artificial Dragon eating him in a single bite.

"Oh Kami." Naruto muttered as they stared in shock at Fafnir, having heard of him from Isaribi, but seeing him was an entirely different thing.

He was colossal in size, easily dwarfing the other Evolved Wyverns, being jet black in color, with a lighter grey underbelly, his wings being on his back, arms coming from his chest, large twisting horns sprouting from his head, cyan eyes with narrow slit pupils, and a large glowing turquoise section on his chest.

Fafnir's head then snapped towards them, as his eyes glowed and growled at them.

"Mages, be honored for you shall be the first to witness the power of Fafnir! The Evil Dragon!" Fafnir roared as he flared his power, causing the ground to begin shaking and cracking open, along with the ceiling being ripped open and collapsing around them.

"Move!" Shouted Erza as the Mages jumped back, while Fafnir took flight into the sky as the Mages running out of the lab, knowing they had to stop Fafnir.

"Requip: Black Wing Armor!" Erza said as she switched to her Black Wing Armor and flew up after Fafnir.

"Carla!" Said Naruto, as Carla nodded, before grabbing him and flying up towards Fafnir.

"I really wish Happy was here." Natsu muttered, hating he was stuck on the ground.

"Moon Flash!" Shouted Erza rushing towards the Artificial Dragon and slashing her sword in a cross pattern towards Fafnir.

"Hell Flame Dragon's Blazing Inferno!" Naruto said, while unleashing large streams of hellfire at Fafnir.

"Diamond Form!" Fafnir declared, before his scales suddenly gleamed in the light, and to the shock of Naruto and Erza, their attacks had no effect on the Dragon.

"Diamond Dragon's Roar!" Roared Fafnir, before unleashing a large blast of destructive energy at the two Mages, who quickly flew back down to the ground to avoid the attack, while landing beside their allies.

"Alright, at least know what form of Dragon Slayer Magic Fafnir uses. That'll make beating him easier." Flare said, with the others nodding in agreement, only to be shocked when Fafnir actually laughed.

"Think again Mages! Ice Dragon Chilling Winds!" Fafnir said, before flapping his wings as he released a wave of icy cold air and ice, that rained down on the Mages.

"Fire Dragon's Roar!" Shouted Natsu, unleashing a large blast of fire towards the ice, only for his flames to actually be extinguished by the freezing winds, as the Mages were blown away from the winds.

"He can use Ice Dragon Slayer Magic too?!" Wendy said, shocked that Fafnir had two forms of Dragon Slayer Magic.

"I have so much more than that. That fool Amachi implanted several Dragon Lacrima into me! Blade Dragon's Tearing Roar!" Fafnir roared, while unleashing another roar that blasted them back and cut into their bodies.

"Hell Flame Dragon's Firefly Lights! Hell Flame Dragon's Fire Doll!" Shouted Naruto, creating the orange/red glowing lights, before launching them towards Fafnir as they detonated around the Evil Dragon.

"Hair Shower: Thousand Birds!" Flare said, shooting several bundles of her hair towards Fafnir.

"Sky Dragon's Tornado!" Wendy said, while creating a large tornado that doubled the speed of Flare's Thousand Birds, making them slam right into Fafnir.

Only for the Evil Dragon to brush off their attacks, like they were nothing.

"My turn. Earth Dragon's Shifting Plates!" Fafnir yelled as he flew straight towards the ground, with his impact unleashing a massive earthquake that split the ground wide open and threw the Mages off balance.

"Crystal Dragon's Crystal Range!" Shouted Fafnir, before large jagged greenish-blue crystals shot out of the ground, with the group being forced to jump around and dodge, to avoid being impaled.

"Lava Dragon's Devastation!" Fafnir roared loudly, as pillars of lava erupted out of the ground, with the Mages once again being forced to move around to avoid being burned.

"How are we supposed to beat him?! He has five different forms of Dragon Slayer Magic, and probably even more!" Said Natsu, for once not sure if they'd be able to beat their opponent.

"Isaribi, do you know anything about any weaknesses that Fafnir may have?!" Wendy asked, with Isaribi shaking her head.

"No! I don't know if he even has any weaknesses! Amachi wanted to create a true, unstoppable Dragon!" Said Isaribi, doubting Amachi made it so Fafnir had any weakness.

"Why would that idiot create an unstoppable Dragon, that he can't control?!" Carla said, wondering if Amachi was that arrogant to think he could just control Fafnir, because he created him.

"His chest!" Said Naruto, suddenly getting everyone's attention, before they looked to Fafnir's chest, specifically the glowing spot.

"That's his weaknesses! It's the only spot that isn't covered by his scales!" Erza said, realizing that was where they needed to strike to kill Fafnir.

"Then let's hit him with everything we've got!" Said Natsu, eager to take Fafnir down, now that they know where to hit him.

"It won't work! He'll see us coming and then work to protect that spot. We need to distract him, so one of us can get in close to strike him. I'll do it." Said Isaribi, with everyone looking at her in shock that she'd volunteer.

"Isaribi, you can't!" Wendy said, not wanting her friend to get hurt, only for Isaribi to smile sadly at her.

"I'm the only one who can get close enough to hit him. And because of my Dragonization, I have the strength to weaken him enough for you all to finish him off. It's why I could overpower Naruto's Dragon Slayer Magic so easily, I'm more of a Dragon and have more power." Said Isaribi, while looking at her scales before looking up at the others, at her…friends.

"I hurt a lot of people by helping Amachi, and now even more will get hurt, if Fafnir isn't stopped. I need to do this, to fix my mistakes." Isaribi said.

"Isaribi…" Said Wendy, with Isaribi smiling reassuringly at her friend.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. And once this is over, we'll go to Cait Shelter right?" Isaribi asked, with Wendy nodding.

"Yeah, we will. I promised we will." Said Wendy, with Isaribi nodding and smiling.

"Then let's get started." Isaribi said, with the others nodding before they rushed off to distract Fafnir, with Naruto stopping and looking at Isaribi.

"Isaribi, I'm sorry for how I treated you, and no matter what you did, I'm glad we met." Said Naruto, before joining the others, while missing the tears in Isaribi's eyes, which she quickly wiped away.

(Fate/Apocrypha OST – Savior)

Taking a breath, Isaribi released her wings and flew into the air, watching as the others drew Fafnir's attention as she began gathering all her magic and waited for her chance. Soon seeing it, when Fafnir reared his arms back, fully exposing his chest, with Isaribi immediately flying straight towards him.

"Aqua Lotus: Imploding Torrent Blade!" Shouted Isaribi, while coating her arm in a massive amount of swirling water, which she thrust straight into Fafnir's chest, with the attack exploding in a large vortex of water that further damaged the Evil Dragon.

Fafnir roared in pain at the attack, instinctively swinging his claws at his attacker, along with coating them with his Dragon Slayer Magic. With Isaribi being hit point blank by Fafnir's claws, slashing her diagonally across her chest from her shoulder to her waist, bisecting her. With the others being unable to do anything but look on in shock and horror.

"ISARIBI!" Everyone screamed in horror, with Wendy being the loudest at she saw happen to her friend.

As much as they wanted to go and help her, they couldn't waste the chance she gave them, as Erza and Flare rushed forward and restrained the weakened Fafnir.

"Natsu, Naruto, Wendy! Finish him!" Erza shouted, with the three Dragons nodding as they ran towards the restrained Evil Dragon.

"Fire Dragon…"

"Hell Flame Dragon…"

"Sky Dragon…"

"ROAR!" The three Dragon Slayers roared unleashing gigantic amounts of flames, hellfire, and air towards Fafnir.

The three attacks swirling around each other, before combining together into a massive inferno that soon transformed into an equally massive Dragon, that roared as it slammed right into Fafnir. With the Artificial Dragon roaring in agony as he was consumed in a raging firestorm from the attack.

Though when the flames faded, the Mages were shocked to see Fafnir was somehow still alive, though being heavily wounded and burned.

"You…you win…this round…Mages…" Fafnir grunted, before flying off before they could finish the job, while knowing he'll have to lay low for now, if he didn't want to risk Acnologia finding him and finishing what the Mages started.

Seeing Fafnir escape, the Cait Shelter and Fairy Tail Mages immediately rushed over to Isaribi, seeing she was somehow still clinging to life.

"Isaribi! Isaribi! Just hold on, we won't let you die!" Wendy said, while grabbing her friends' hand, as Isaribi smiled weakly at her, before looking around at all of them.

"We-Wendy…th-than-thank you…thank you so much…for-for being my…my friend. Pl-please…take this…" Said Isaribi, before weakly pushing her hand into her chest, grunting as she pulled out her Sea Dragon Lacrima and holding it out to the shocked Wendy.

"I…I wa-want y-you t-to-to ha-have it…so you…you can…remember me…" Isaribi said, with Wendy furiously shaking her head.

"No, no, no! You need that to live! Isaribi, please, I can heal you!" Said Wendy, only for Isaribi to shake her head and stop the Sky Dragon Slayer.

"No…th-there is…n-nothing you c-can do…A-and…I-I…I want…this…to die as…a human…than live…as a Dragon…" Isaribi said, while giving the Lacrima to the shocked Naruto.

"Please…keep…it…safe…for Wendy…" Said Isaribi.

"…With my life." Naruto replied sadly, while taking the Lacrima.

"I-Isaribi…" Said Wendy, while holding her friend close as Isaribi smiled at her.

"I'm…glad…I…met…you…We…ndy…" Isaribi said as her eyes closed for the last time, with a smile on her face.

Naruto, Flare, Carla, Erza, and Natsu bowed their heads with tears falling from their eyes, as they mourned the now dead girl. While Wendy's body shook as she held Isaribi's body close, watching as her Dragon features began fading away, restoring her to her true appearance.

"ISARIBI!"

*Timeskip-Two Day*

Wendy looked down with a saddened expression on her face, while holding the Sea Dragon Lacrima, as she stood in front of Isaribi's grave.

Isaribi

The Sea Dragon Slayer

A True Friend

A Proud Human

Under the words, were the carved images of the Cait Shelter and Fairy Tail guild marks. To show even if Isaribi wasn't a member of either guild, she had the spirit that proved she was more than worthy to have joined them.

She buried her under the tree that they had hung out together at, a few days ago, where she made the offer to bring her to Cait Shelter. With Wendy looked as she saw Naruto, Flare, and Carla approaching her.

"Wendy, are you going to be alright?" Carla asked, worried for her companion after everything she went through, with Wendy nodding as she clutched the Sea Dragon Lacrima.

"I'm fine Carla. After everything that's happened, I'm done being a shy little girl, that's scared or can't defend herself. Now I will stand as a Dragon Slayer and as a Dragon." Replied Wendy, having come to terms with Isaribi's death and why she chose it, along with how she'll eventually turn into a Dragon as well.

"And I'll stand with you, Wendy." Naruto said, while putting a hand on her shoulder, knowing he'll eventually turn into a Dragon as well, and made peace with it, which helped Wendy's resolve.

"We all will." Said Flare as she put a hand on Wendy's other shoulder, while Carla put a paw on her leg, with Wendy smiling thankfully at her teammates and friends.

Before she pulled out a knife and grabbed her hair, cutting it off into a short bob cut. Looking at the cut strands, Wendy let them fly off in the wind, knowing she was no longer that shy little girl, she used to be.

(Song End)

*Later*

"Take care guys. If you're ever in Magnolia, stop by the guild and we can introduce to everyone!" Natsu said, while waving to Naruto, Wendy, Flare, and Carla.

"If you ever need help, don't hesitate to contact us, and we'll be there as soon as we can." Said Erza, as they exchanged goodbyes.

With the two Fairy Tail Mages taking notice of Wendy's new attire, now consisting of white boots, long black socks, a purple skirt, a dark blue shirt, and a white jacket. The bluenette having gotten a new attire, to go with her new short hair.

"We will, and thanks again for all your help." Naruto replied, as they waved at the two, before going their separate ways to return to their respective guilds.

Though before they had left, they had all returned to Amachi's Lab and raided it for anything they could find, along with hopefully to destroy his research. Unfortunately, they were unable to find Amachi's research, meaning he had gotten rid of it, in the event something happened to him, while they were storming his hideout.

Though they were able to find several books on magic. With Carla taking books on Transformation Magic, Illusion Magic, and Light Magic. Naruto finding a book on a rare form of Molding Magic, known as Energy-Make Magic. Flare had managed to find a few books on a form of Lost Magic, known as Sun God Slayer Magic. Wendy found some books on Sea Dragon Slayer Magic, which she kept with the Sea Dragon Lacrima.

While Natsu had found books on another Lost Magic, known as Fire Devil Slayer Magic, while Erza had found a few more Dragon Lacrima. Neither of them sure why, but they felt both items calling out to them respectively and took them. If for nothing else, than as trophies and reminders of the Job.

With that, both groups went their separate ways to return to their guilds, all while they made sure to remember the girl who sacrificed herself to give them a fighting chance. With all of them swearing to do everything they can to make sure her sacrifice will never be in vain.

So, what did you think, good. Yeah…I am a monster…I killed Isaribi just when she finally found people who cared about her, sacrificing herself to give them a chance to take down Fafnir. Along with giving her Sea Dragon Lacrima to Wendy to remember her by, with Isaribi getting what she always wanted in the end, people to care about her and return to being a human. Then we see Wendy and Naruto have accepted they'll eventually turn into Dragons, with Wendy no longer being that shy little girl and will grow as a Dragon Slayer and Dragon. Finally we see that everyone has gained their own spoils from raiding Amachi's lab, each gaining something from it before going their separate ways. So, review if you liked go away if you didn't.
