On with the story

Upon Ishgar at the location of its borders, Touro runs through the land with his siblings on board his back

The Bull Dragon's heavy stomps shakes the ground, breaks giant boulders, and trees that blocks his way

Touro roars as he charges through a dense forest, breaking down some trees in the process

The Dragon Children went off to who knows where while on their tail were Grandeeney and Atlas Flame flying in the sky, chasing after them

"where are they going?" Lucy asked as they watch the many broken trees from the sky and could see her son making a large path through the forest

"they're not going to Fiore, that's one thing" Cana said as Fiore was east of their location: not north east

"did anyone bring a map?" Kagura asked as Erza nodded in reply and takes out a map from behind her

Erza opens the map as everyone looks at the direction of where their kids were going

"they're going here?" Éclair asked as the direction of where the kids were going was straight to the Black Forest of Sardonia itself

"where would this direction lead them to?" Ikaruga asked, not being very familiar with Ishgar's map

"it's called the Black Forest of Sardonia" Lucy explained "or what other people call, the forest of Death"

"Forest of Death?" Cana asked, seeming to have never heard of the forest "is it some sort of place for undead or something?"

"no, it is the place where a god was once told to have died" Hisui stated

"a god?" Sorano asked curious

"centuries ago, there was a battle" Lucy explained "a battle of an enraged god against a mortal being, the battle was devastating that Ishgar was nearly wiped out of existence, but in the end the mortal is the victor as he plunged a golden sword which has been enchanted with a very strange and powerful magic through the god's heart, killing the god instantly"

"but aren't gods..you know" Ultear asked as they all know how gods are immortals compared to them

"we know, but this is a legend so no one really knows how it really go" Lucy replied

"but even if it was a legend, the Black Forest of Sardonia is the living proof" Hisui added in "when the god was struck down from the heavens, he befall upon the land of Ishgar; his body corroded and turns to black muck like substance that rots all that it touches"

"and that is how the forest came to known to be?" Ikaruga asked as Lucy and Hisui nodded

"then what reason could they be going there for?" Kamika asked as they were still chasing after Touro and the others "from what I've heard that the forest is now a dead wasteland, that has possible lingering undeads around"

"must be for the voice" Cana said as everyone look at her "I mean, they said that they heard a voice and then went off, right? It might be the one who is calling out to them"

"must be" Kagura said, nodding in agreement before they heard an explosion coming from bellow

Everyone looks down and sees their children, all in their Dragon Form (except for Kaithen and Levia) were wrecking through a town, making the people running in a panic while they destroy the many houses and buildings

"this might be" Hisui said seeing the destruction of the town

"problematic" Kamika added in, finishing Hisui's sentence

At the black forest of Saradonia, things there were in pure chaos

Explosions, after explosions rang out as a large black mist like a golem, rise out

The golem was pure black as it looks to have been created with black water, and it only had one white eye

Efam stood on the shoulders of the golem as he looks down with a smile at Natsu who was laying down on a crater

Natsu grunted as he slowly got sat up, his armor had cracks on its surface

"this guy…not only is he no human but his power is like that of a Dragon" Natsu thought as he and Zeref had been battling Efam to a point that the two of them couldn't even land an attack on him "no…his power surpass that of a Dragon or even a god!"

Natsu got up as he glance to the side and sees Zeref getting up from his crater, both of their armor were cracked

"even with our power combined" Natsu thought as the two had been going on the attack against Efam but the golem appeared out of nowhere and faced the two head on, it merely took 20 minutes for the land to be barren of chaos

Natsu glanced at Efam as their foe smiled while looking down upon them

"if only I could get close to him" Natsu looks around as his broad sword was broken into two, his magic gun destroyed, only his father's golden sword remained intact; his weapons were scattered around in the fight "just how am I supposed to do that?"

Natsu lifts his hand up as the golden sword flies back into his grasp

"are you still going to fight me?" Efam asked out loud while riding his golem's shoulder "even if you do not have a chance?"

Natsu and Zeref stood their ground as they readied their weapon and magic

Efam smirked as his black golem's eyes glowed with light starting to gather into it

Zeref swipes his sword up and then to the side, creating a large magic circle above the golem and Efam

"Natsu!" Zeref called out as Natsu spreads his wings before he flies towards Efam at high speed

Efam chuckled before he snaps his fingers, the magic circle above shatters like glass before the golem fires a powerful white beam that creates a powerful explosion

"Guaaahh!" Zeref went flying as the blast hits him like thousands of boulders crashing together

Natsu flies at Efam as he swings his sword, slamming it against his foe but the blade was caught

"w-what?!" Natsu said in shock before he was blasted away from a close range blast to the chest by Efam

Natsu crashed down to the ground as he creates large drag marks before going to a stop

"it's useless" Efam said with a smirk "magic can't harm me nor can anything of this world"

"t-this world's…magic?" Zeref said as he slowly sat up, his armor breaking into pieces

"can't affect him.." Natsu grunted as his armor was now gone, only a few pieces of it remained attached to his body "that's….impossible"

"it is impossible" Efam said "or more to be precise, anything that belongs to this world, can't harm me"

"belong…to t-this world?" Zeref said before his helmet breaks into pieces "you…you are not a being from this world?"

"correct, I am or to be more precise we do not belong to this world as he we are from a world that far differs from yours" Efam stated "a world that is far superior than yours"

"what does that supposed to mean?" Natsu said getting back up as he wobbled a bit but he stood his ground "you came from somewhere not from here?"

"if that is how you explain it, then yes" Efam replied "our world is a different dimension of understanding than yours. Think of it as a coin, your world is the head but my world is the tail."

"and that would mean you came to this world with some sort of magic" Zeref said, also getting up but while holding his side, as it was bleeding

"yes, my world's magic far surpasses this world's." Efam replied "we have unlimited magic potential while this world is limited. Therefore, we reign supreme for millennia"

"a Millenia…you…you're an immortal being from another world..does that mean you are a god of that world?" Zeref said

"hmmm, if you put it that way, then yes" Efam replied before having a sinister grin "I am a god, I am Efam, the Sinister Mad God. A member of the Seven gods of my world"

"a god from a different world that came to our world" Natsu said "what kind of a day is this?"

"what reason do you have on being here?" Zeref asked "I do not think that a god from another mightier world, would just come here without a reason"

"keen thinking, Former Demon Lord of Silence, Zeref" Efam said clapping his hands 3 times "that is correct, we are here for a few reasons actually"

"and let me guess one of them" Natsu said holding his sword in his grasp that tightens "it was to play a game with the living beings in this world, wasn't it? just like our mother"

"hmmm? Your mother?" Efam said as he started tapping his chin a few times before he had a face of realization and snapped his fingers "oh yeah! That Black Valkyrie leader, Hael was it?! that one was so much fun!"

"so much fun? What do you mean?" Natsu said

"well, we came here millennia ago and not one of the living beings in this world had ever knew that we were even here" Efam said smiling "but that Valkyrie was the only one who knew, how intriguing it was to know that we were finally realized to have existed"

Efam laughed as he did so for a good minute before stopping

"ah, it was so much fun to know that we existed but it was more fun seeing her get taken out by her own kingdom" Efam said

"what did you say?" Zeref said his eyes glowing a bit black

"your mother was very persistence to tell others that we were here in this world, she tried gathering all to fight against us but that would end the fun for us." Efam replied "So we decided to make a game of who could get rid of her the quickest"

"you were the one" Natsu muttered out as his eyes started glowing red "you were the reason for our mother's struggles…and the one who made her get banished from her own kingdom…"

"if you said it that way" Efam said before smirking and had a very annoyingly taunting face on him "then yes, I did. And I had so much joy in seeing her get struck down by my spy and the Valkyries of that kingdom"

"unforgivable" Natsu said as he stands up straight before red scales started to appear all around his body

"truly unforgivable" Zeref added in as his horns grow longer while black markings were spreading all over his body

The two brothers wielded their swords as both were ignited in crimson and black flames respectively

Efam smirked in seeing the two's action as they were going to continue their fight

"do you believe you two have any chance of hurting me or even defeating me?" Efam asked tauntingly

"we won't be defeating you" Zeref said as his eyes glowed pure black while Natsu's crimson red

"we will kill you" Natsu added in, the man's dragon tail appeared behind his back

"ho?" Efam looks amused as flames started to appear everywhere

Natsu wielded his father's sword with both hands as crimson flames spirals around its blade, forming the head of the Dragon above him

Zeref wielded his sword with both hands as the blade was covered in black raging flames that burns like hell fire

The flames surrounds Natsu and Zeref as it burns more wild

That's a wrap!

going on a longer hiatus

Bye bye
