OK, We got some reviews, not all for the same thing, but all are quite positive. First off, I just moved to America, so that's new. Kinda cold and less deadly than I expected, and it lacks fairy bread.
In other news, I AM SO SORRY! This took me forever to do because of semesters ends and beginnings, so I had to keep up with my schooling and my work. So it is a late Christmas present and early Valentines gift to you all!
Next, NO! I refuse for Crow and I to be a thing!
*Awe, don't say that, you know you love me. Besides, you were the one who made our little bet on whether or not Harem will be a thing, and so far you are winning.*
SHUT IT. Besides, I made my half of the bet because it was either that, or you would claim we were dating.
*And is that so wrong? Besides, I am tempted for you to win, so that we could get in another ship, this time just for us.*
WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT SHUTTING IT! NEXT TIME I'M GRABBING THE TAPE!
*Anyways, the Harem/no Harem thing is still going on. Nowhere near enough votes to call a winner, but if you vote for Harem, I will guarantee that I will put in the fan service that JackSonofEberus wanted so badly.*
I AM NOT DOING THAT ON FANFIC WITH YOU! That and we only agreed to the kiss and the wolf pelt for three chapters.
*Party pooper.*
Anyways, On with the chapter! Also, HOIST THE MOTHERFUCKING JOLLY ROGER SOMEONE! Whoever does it, I am going to make them a member of Fairy Tail in my next chapter.
No One's Pov.
Thunder.
It boomed across the skyline of the mountain range to the west of Magnolia. To most, they thought a storm was coming. To the citizens of Magnolia, they knew the Guild Master, Laxus, was powering up. But to Fairy Tail? They were watching a giant televised lacrima of the battle that was about to go down, and made a few bets, (*Cough cough Macao cough Smokey cough*) and wondering who would win; The recently, in their eyes, powered up Natsu Dragneel, or the entire S Class base of Fairy Tail plus the newly appointed Fourth Master. They were fairly certain that while new Natsu could take on all the S Classes, he wouldn't succeed against Laxus. Well, all except six, that is. Lisanna, Flare, three cloaked mages, one of which quickly zoomed out the door after the group, and a boy with white and black hair all put their bets on the Multi Dragon Slayer. But back to the mages at hand.
Gajeel, for lack of other words, was excited. He was facing off Salamander but he was better this time than last, and he was consuming a bit of iron Levi summoned to prove it.
Levy on the other hand, was on edge. Sure, she had gotten stronger with Team Shadow Gear under the guidance of Gajeel Redfox, but she knew of Natsu's strength, and while she was at what he was in the past, what new level was he at now?
Mira was having similar thoughts as well, but knew she was training and they also had numbers on their side compared to the pinkette, but that didn't stop the usually calm bartender to have a dramatic spike in her dark aura as they walked to the forest clearing, scaring people shitless.
The cloaked mage that was lagging behind was cautious, as he didn't want his identity revealed to anyone, especially his previous opponent who so dramatically left him dead along with a defiled tower, despite him saying he forgave him. He gripped a staff in hand, the magic swirling around it undeniably powerful, but the one that lied within him made him rise to Wizard Saint at one point in time.
Laxus knew his foe. He knew how he was defeated. That edge he had was now on his side. Not to mention he was also stronger as well, and was preparing to test him from the beginning, ever since his return. Now it was time to show Natsu the Storm within him.
But Natsu? He looked calm, and collected. Something none of the others expected, but they would expect what was going on on the inside. Pure and hyperactive joy. He could finally show off his skills and he meant all of them. Every Dragon Slayer power he has gained, some weapons he could re-equip, and when he eliminated Levy and Gajeel, his Take-Over forms to see the shocked faces on all of them, then he would release the dams on his magic.
Oh, everyone was in for the fight of their lives alright.
Natsu's Pov
All six of us, and before you ask, yes I know there is six, I can smell the lagger following us, are coming up to a large barren clearing in the woods. It is just a large ring of missing trees which some stumps and fallen logs make a ring around the three hundred foot radius circle, and the inside is packed earth and some gravel. Nothing too special really.
I walk to the center, and turn and see my five opponents, even though one is trying to look invisible. I raise an eyebrow and my body ignites into flames.
"Come on, I don't got all morning." Yells Gajeel as he rushes forward, a Iron Dragon Lance already activated, and sent it forth to the awaiting Natsu.
"Fire Dragon's Burning Crusade." I call out calmly, and four large and cross shaped shields made from flames surround me, and four spears made from flames slide out from each of the intersections of a cross. Gajeel roars out in pain as his log is destroyed, and he holds his slightly burned arm.
"Is that all?" I drawl, looking at Gajeel boredly, the Iron Dragon Slayer growling at him, only to smirk at something behind him.
Mira, for her part, did a wonderful job of sneaking into her Satan Soul, charging up her Soul Extinction, and executing the attack. Thing is, she was prepared for a normal Dragon Slayer's capabilities, not one who has mastered five types of Dragon Slaying magic and heightened senses. So…
"Soul Extinction!" She roared, sending the ball of purple and black energy at the Multi Dragon Slayer, AKA me.
"Night Dragon's Blink." I growl, and I effectively fell into the shadow of the Soul Extinction and disappeared, teleporting into the shade of a tree behind them all.
Suddenly, everyone panics. Mirajane staring at where she 'killed' me in horror, Gajeel shouting about how that was a load of bullcrap that I could die to such a weak attack, Levy covering her mouth with her hands, Mystogan looking at the area I 'died' at in shock, and Laxus was living up to his grandfather's reputation. He is crying about how much either cleaner costs would be, or how much it would be for bail to get Mira out of prison… Now that I think about it, it may be just the cost of Fairy Tail's rampage to get Mira out of prison.
"WHYYYYYYYYYYY!" Cried Laxus, the big droopy tears falling from his face as he sank to his knees as he sobbed over the loss of money from the death of yours truly.
I grin, and step out of the shadows behind them all, and I make a small bonfire where I 'died'. They all stare intently at the flames, which I turn slowly into hellfire.
"Take-Over: Atlas Flame." I growl lowly. I grin as they watch the flames morph and waver into images, a good distraction for my slow change. Unlike other Take-Overs, Take-Over: Dragon requires time to do. My light red hair flows slightly, as if it was made from flames. A pair of black horns emerge from my forehead and they are spiraled with the crimson heat of hellfire. Twin black skeletal wings emerge from my back, both wreathed in hellfire, along with a long black skeletal dragon tail coated in the crimson and black flames, much hotter than either Zarcrows or mine, making it impossible for a normal fire dragon slayer or god slayer to consume. The transformation ends when several cracks web around my eyes and ignite with a low glowing hellfire, and my hands become coated in black skeletal dragon claws covered in hellfire and crack all the way up to my elbows. My cloak flows behind me in large waves of blackened smoke, my armor and clothes having random gusts of steam coming from them, and my eyes glowing amberish brown.
Mystogan is the first to turn and see me, only for him to shout something and turn into a ball of light and disappear from my view. Laxus and Gajeel whipped around to see a pair of hellish fireballs fly at them, both barely rolling out of they way. Mirajane and Levy turn and see my blazing eyes glaring at them, my mouth twisted into a evil looking smirk that would unnerve anyone.
"Solid Script: Lightning!" Cries out Levy, sending a bolt at me.
"Demon Blast!" Roars Mirajane, sending out a dark purple beam of shadowed energy at me.
"Lightning Dragon Roar!" Bellow Laxus, sending out his own attack.
"Iron Dragon's Sword!" Booms Gajeel, who is a little worst for wear, but still in fighting spirit, charging forth with his own attack. Ata boy.
"Thirty Layered Magic Circle; Black Star!" Calls out Mystogan, who has somehow had to the time to take out ten magic staves and plant them in the ground around him. A bolt of black energy flies out of the sky, and I can tell it is powerful Night Magic.
I crack a grin and open my mouth, and start to consume the magic attacks… besides Gajeel who was the furthest away and won't have enough time to stop me from eating my little feast. Both Laxus and Levy's lightning flow into my mouth, and I slurp them up like noodles. Mystogan's Black Star is a good chow, kind of like sauteed beef and broccoli. Ah, but as usual, Mira's cooking trumps all. Don't know how she does it, but it tastes awesome.
Of course, everyone is flabbergasted at how I ate everyone's attacks… Until Gajeel jumps me, to which, I respond to his sword… With my own!
"Re-equip, Ashcaller." I sign, and a gray sword with a large metal hawk skull in the crossguard and a black leather grip that ignites into hellfire blocks the oncoming Iron Dragon Slayer's attack. Gajeel smirks and leans in to eat my sword, only to be burned by the flames coating it.
"Gah! Damn it Salamander!" He growls.
"Don't touch my stuff, Redfox." I snarl, and spin my sword once and send out my own attack in a simple slash. "Hellfire Dragon's Secret Art: Belphegor's Wave."
A wave of hellfire and black sand from the ground flies out with my slash, sweeping over to my opponents, forcing the Demon to take flight, the Static Boy to bolt out, the Hidden Mage to turn to mist, and the Iron Block to block for the Nerd. I take off, shooting straight up towards the Satan Soul; Sitri Mirajane.
"Devil's Flare." Declares Mirajane, as she sends out a Hellfire shot at me. Color me impressed at her ability to even summon the form, but to be able to use another form of magic in that form shows her dedication to her training and how much she has grown.
"Hellfire Dragon's Devil Horn Strike!" I cry out, headbutting her, my forehead colliding with hers. She cries out in pain, and falls to the earth, unconscious. I swoop down and catch her, before flapping my wings over Gajeel and Levy, sending out a Hellfire Dragon's Demonic Slam as I land. I settle Mirajane in between the two downed mages, and turn to the other two.
"Ten Layered Magic Circle: Frostweaver!" Calls out Mystogan, a sword similar to Gray's Cold Calibur forming in his hands, but more intricate and looking much more like a fancy and snowy designed zweihander instead of Gray's simple star crossguard longsword look. To be honest, I like this one much better than Stripper's.
"Lightning Dragon's Heavenward Halberd!" Thunders Laxus, a glowing lightning trident forming in his hands.I also notice him putting a layer of light around his weapon, so I couldn't eat it. Clever…
The two rush me, jumping up and swinging or thrusting downward, aiming for my head or in Mystogan's case, my torso and shoulders.
"Re-equip…"
Boom
"NIGHTLUST!" I roar out, the black ribbed blade glowing with the darkened flames, holding black the two weapons of light and frost. Nightlust is a black double edged claymore that looks more like a long bladed xiphos with a pair of blades coming out of the guard, and a black steel wolf skull with glowing purple eyes guarding my hand and the maroon leather grip, the pommel fashioned into a pair of wolf paws clasped around a small black cracked red stone.
I press outward with my sword, and send back Laxus and Mystogan. Laxus, in kind, throws his Heavenward Halberd at me. I hold out my sword, and catch the blast on the tip of my sword, sending it coursing through the blade and my body, and I swing out towards Mystogan with an attack that I just made right on the spot.
"Hellstorm Dragon's Slashing Fury!" I bellow, the mix of hellfire and lightning spread out like a tidal wave, forming into a dragon like shape as it washes over the stupefied mage.
I turn and shoot at Laxus, and check him in the chest with a spear of hellfire that extended from my sword as I thrusted at him.
"Hellfire Dragon's Secret Art: Lucifer's Lance!" I shout, and burn away Laxus' purple shirt, and send him flying back a few feet behind the trio of passed out mages. He lets out a defeated groan, and I turn to burnt cloak. Mystogan had abandoned his mask, showing Jellal's face.
"Got a legit reason for invading my guild, convict?" I ask, light heartedly. Of course I heard of his escape a few months after I left. I also heard of how the corpses of Jellal was found by previous council member Ultear, who also happened to find a scared and worried pink haired teen with the body. After much interrogation and questioning, Ultear and the girl, Meredy, both joined Fairy Tail, much to the Council's despair. A week or so after that, a confused and amnesia filled Mystogan stumbled into Fairy Tail. No coincidence.
"Natsu… I know I wronged you and Erza… or, so Ultear says." Stutters Jellal, who backs up.
"Huh, so they weren't kidding when they said you don't remember jack…" I say, advancing towards the former 'Bringer of a New Age', whom is cowering in a smoldering robe.
"Just means we get to reform you into a better man, Eh, Mystogan." I say with a knowing smile at the fear filled use to be Wizard Saint.
"R-right, Natsu…" Stammers Jellal, a look of relief falling upon his face as I turn back to normal.
"Good, cause your first task as a reformed member of society is to find a wheelbarrow and drag the others back. That, and to tell Laxus he lost if he is out." I say, walking back down the path we came to Magnolia, the floating Lacrima winking out of existence as soon as the show was over.
"I HEARD THAT NATSU!" Calls out a downed Second Generation Dragon Slayer, who is making no attempt to resist Mystogan's aid in getting him into a wooden wheelbarrow, Though he is disappointed as I pick up Mirajane and he is piled in with Gajeel and Levy topping the mound.
And that's the end of the chapter! Thanks for reading to the end once again. No idea when the next chapter will be out, but hopefully soon!
*In other news, please keep voting so one or the other is a victor… that and you get what you want.*
Yeah… Anyways! So far, only Mira and Ultear were voted for to be part of the harem. I am really egging on anyone who is still voting for it to have either Meredy or Erza also voted in. Or both!
*Personally, you should also add in a bad girl, like Kagara or Minerva. And on other news, the cap of girls is going to be seven or nine. No more or less.*
What she said. Please have mercy on my poor mind. ALSO! No Levy, Juvia, Bisca, Evergreen, Wendy, Chelia, or Yukino! They are taken in my mind or are underaged!
*Unless there is a high amount of votes. Then I am forcing it in. Kapeesh?*
Whatever… Later everyone!
*Crow out!*
