A/N: Welcome back to Lost Fairy
Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail
The city of Magnolia was quite crowded. With preparations for the city's two hundred year anniversary coming, the city was working to prepare for the event. Many from other cities had been hired to help prepare for the event by setting up booths, creating a new mural and other tasks. Through all this chaos, a young man was walking through the city. This young man wore a grey and white striped shirt, a pair of grey shorts and a pair of blue sandals with a brown strap. He walked through the city with a wooden walking stick which was too short and seemed like a cane. He walked through the city occasionally bumping into someone, to which he immediately apologized. He walked until he found a bench and sat down. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and decided he would walk again. With the intense summer heat, he wanted to find a cooler spot to sit in. Although once he got up, he immediately bumped into someone.
"Hey!" He heard the person say.
"I'm very sorry." He immediately apologized.
"It's okay." The person who sounded like a man replied. "Hey what's up with your eyes, they seem kind of weird."
"Natsu that isn't something you can just say, that's rude." He heard followed by a slapping sound.
"I don't mind, many people don't usually get to see a blind person's eyes. It usually seems strange to them. My name is Shizen Kodomo." Shizen introduced himself.
"My name is Lucy Heartfilia and the doofus with me is Natsu Dragneel." Lucy introduced themselves.
"I think I've heard of you two before, aren't you two mages or something." Shizen asked.
"Yup, we are part of Fairy Tail." Natsu confirmed.
"Alright, well I haven't met any Fairy Tail mages before. It was nice meeting you two but I need to go, I'm meeting up with a friend right now." Shizen revealed.
"Alright, do you need any help?" Lucy asked.
"No I'll manage, I've been blind my whole life so I learned how to find my way around." Shizen replied as he walked away.
"Let's get going as well, we need to go see who Laxus and the thunder tribe managed to catch." Shizen heard Lucy tell Natsu.
Lucy and Natsu entered the police station, they were met by Laxus who was standing outside a unmarked door.
"So, who did you manage to catch?" Natsu asked.
"It was the crazy chick, I think her name was Emma. She's currently chained up in the interrogation room right here." Laxus informed the two as he pointed to the door. " So far we haven't been able to get anything out of her but nonsense."
"Let me give it a try." Lucy suggested.
"I'll go with her, what's the worst that could happen?" Natsu asked.
"Give it a try, but she just seems purely insane to me." Laxus agreed.
Lucy and Natsu walked into the interrogation room and saw that the room was devoid of any color. All that was in the room was a metal table with two chairs. One of the chairs that was closer to the door was empty but the chair at the other end of the table had Emma chained up with a bored expression on her face.
"Oh, more guests. I have a complaint and it's that this room is too boring. I'd like to have another room." Emma requested.
"Do you not realize the situation you're in?" Lucy asked.
"I'm chained up in a room right now, that's pretty much all I've seen so far so... not really."
"Where is Romeo hiding?" Lucy asked.
"Not sure." Emma simply replied.
"What do you mean not sure, you know where he's been hiding so tell us." Lucy demanded.
"I'm serious. I'm not sure." Emma again said.
Natsu ignited his fist and slammed in on the table next to Emma. "I'm running out of patience right now, where is Romeo?"
"I seriously don't know, that's what I've been trying to tell you but you won't listen to me." Emma shouted.
"It's been eight months since we attacked your guy's base. Where is your base now?" Lucy questioned.
"We don't have a base, or at least I don't think we have one." Emma responded. " And we let you attack that place."
"What do you mean you let us?" Natsu asked.
"I don't know but I remember Romeo saying that he was going to let you attack." Emma answered.
"What is your guy's plan?" Lucy asked.
"Well I've always wanted to see a dragon, and Evan did say he's wanted to go see the Alvarez Empire." Emma snickered.
"This girl is annoying me." Natsu told Lucy.
"What is the goal of your group as a whole?" Lucy asked.
"Oh that… I have no clue." Emma replied. "I just get told what to do or get told off for doing something wrong."
"I need a break from this girl." Natsu said as he headed towards the door.
Lucy followed Natsu to the door as they exited the room. Once they left, Laxus looked at them as if to ask how it went.
"I think you might have gone after the wrong member if we want information. It seems like she really knows nothing." Lucy declared.
"So we finally capture one of them and they don't know anything, at least there's one less maniac to worry about." Laxus commented.
Natsu and Laxus both turned their heads to the side as Lucy turned to see what they were looking at. A clicking noise was heard coming down the hall as a figure appeared. Natsu and Lucy recognized the the figure as Shizen, the person they met earlier that day.
"Hey Shizen, are you lost? This is the police station, were not you looking for your friend?" Lucy asked.
"Yes I was, and it looks like I'm at the right place." Shizen replied.
Before any of the mages had a chance to attack, two large tree roots appeared from the ground, wrapped around Natsu and Laxus, and threw them away. Lucy looked back for a mere moment to that her companions were gone. When she looked back, she saw that the blind boy she met earlier now was slowly walking towards her. Lucy grabbed her keys and was about to summon a spirit when she heard Shizen speak.
"I'm just here to grab my friend. If you attack me, then I'll have no problem treating you like your friends." Shizen warned.
After hesitating for a moment, Lucy found her resolve as she summoned her spirits.
"Open Gate of the Lion, Leo. Open Gate of the Archer, Sagittarius. Open Gate of the Golden Bull, Taurus." Lucy called out as her spirits appeared.
"Lucy, we are here to help." Leo announced. "How dangerous is he?"
"He's blind but he has enough power to literally throw Natsu and Laxus away." Lucy revealed.
"Then let's take him down." Leo replied as he charged in with his hands glowing.
Leo threw multiple punches at Shizen, but they were blocked by tree roots that surrounded him. Taurus swung with his axe but Shizen dodged the attack and knocked Taurus into Leo. The tree branches moved to catch multiple arrows aimed at Shizen. Lucy came from behind, preparing to attack with her Taurus Star Dress activated. Right before the blow landed, Lucy's hand was caught by a tree branch that wrapped around Lucy's wrist.
"I tried to warn you." Shizen said as the tree roots knocked Lucy through multiple walls.
Another tree root loved forward, penetrating Sagittarius' chest. The spirit disappeared as Shizen walked over to the door where Emma was being kept. Emma walked through the door as she looked around the room.
"Did you take all the fun for yourself?" Emma asked.
"I do not see these senseless rights as fun. Let's hurry before reinforcements come." Shizen told Emma as they left the building.
As the two left, Emma saw multiple officers knocked unconscious with their bodies littered around the building.
Natsu got off the ground, pushing the rubble off of himself. Natsu looked where he was as he noticed he was currently outside Fairy Hills. Natsu thought back to what happened and remembered being thrown across town, through the entire Fairy Hills building. Natsu looked around and noticed that Laxus wasn't nearby.
"Natsu what the hell happened?" Cana asked as she ran up to Natsu.
"I just got thrown across town by a tree root." Natsu answered.
"Sound pretty lame." Cana admitted.
"I need to hurry, someone is trying to break the chick we captured out." Natsu revealed.
"Let's hurry then." Cana replied as the two ran into town.
Once the two got to the police station, they noticed that the building had multiple holes in it. They rushed inside and saw the police officers scattered around the floor.
"Cana check on them, I'll check further in and see if the kid is still here." Natsu ordered.
Natsu ran inside not waiting for a response as he where he was previously. Natsu looked the room where Emma was kept and saw she was gone. Natsu noticed that both Emma and the other kids scent were no longer in the building.
"Lucy where are you?" Natsu called out.
Natsu looked around and found Lucy leaning against a wall, holding her side.
"Hey, I think a couple of ribs are broken." Lucy revealed as Natsu rushed over to help her. "I tried to hold him off but he was too strong."
"Don't worry about it. Let's get you to Wendy." Natsu told Lucy as he helped her out of the building.
It was a perfectly normal day, until he appeared. Gildarts Clive, the ace of Fairy Tail. Even with the constant moving and all the precautions taken, he had found them. The worst part was none of the top members were there to fight him. The few people who were at the bar could never hope to fight him. But they all followed Romeo, they knew that this could happen. After five of the seven members who were there had fallen unconscious, with one of the others unable to fight, all hope seemed lost. Standing in front of his fallen comrades was a skinny man who had many cuts and bruises on his body.
"Stand down, you don't stand a chance against me." Gildarts told him.
"I can't," the man replied.
"This is your punishment for joining Romeo, you chose to follow a madman, stand down." Gildarts ordered.
"No, Romeo isn't a madman. Romeo is the man who will change the world." The man yelled.
"So be it then." Gildarts mumbled as he prepared to attack.
As Gildarts pulled his hand back, magic filled his hand. The man standing there realizing it was the end remembered that dated day years ago. He was standing on top of a large building in the middle of the night. There were no people around as he found his resolve. Everything turned black as he prepared for the sweet relief that was to come. When he opened his eyes, he had a warm sensation in his mouth. He saw a young raven haired boy standing above him.
"How, how am I still alive?" the man asked.
"You wouldn't be if I wasn't here." the kid replied.
"There is no reason for me to be here, I have no use!" the man yelled.
"Everyone has a use. If you want find yours, then I'll give you one. Follow me and I'll give your life the meaning you've lost." The kid said as he stretched his arm towards the man.
Everything had happened so fast. The punch was blocked with the force of it nearly destroying the bar it happened in. Gildarts had a look of surprise when he saw Romeo blocking his punch.
"You cheeky brat, you've finally come out of hiding." Gildarts hissed.
"I was never hiding, I simply had better things to do then fight you guys. That was pretty low on my list." Romeo countered.
Gildarts raised his metal arm and blocked the sword that was about to cut him. Evan jumped back and prepared himself for another strike.
"Jeremiah, get them out of here." Romeo ordered.
"Alright." Jeremiah simply replied as he teleported away with the injured men.
"Do you simply think that you are going to escape right now?" Gildarts asked.
"Who said I was planning on running." Romeo replied as he threw a punch at Gildarts.
Gildarts grabbed the punch and threw Romeo through the nearby wall into the street.
Gildarts rushed outside and tried to land a blow on Romeo. Romeo jumped back to avoid the attack. Evan rushed forward and managed to catch Gildarts off guard. Gildarts took a few cuts before he knocked Evan away. Romeo took this opportunity to attack Gildarts and landed a magic infused attack on Gildarts back.
"You cheeky brat, a couple attacks went give you an upper hand in this fight. There is only one way this fight will end." Gildarts declared.
"You are here, alone without any backup. This fight will be like you trying to fight Acnologia on your own." Romeo announced.
"Are you trying to say that you are as powerful as Acnologia." Gildarts asked almost laughing.
"Romeo is even mightier." Evan answered as he slashed at Gildarts.
Gildarts jumped back to avoid the slash. Gildarts noticed that Romeo and Evan were side by side, ready to attack.
"Gildarts, while you are one of the strongest mages on the continent, that gives you your ultimate weakness." Romeo announced.
"And what would that be?" Gildarts asked.
"It's very simple, it's the same weakness that Fairy Tail holds, it's your compassion." Romeo revealed.
"And now is that my weakness?" Gildarts questioned.
"Simple you can't make the right choices when your rage blinds you." Romeo answered.
"Only a fool would try and make me angry." Gildarts argued.
"And that's why a fool could never beat you. But I know you came here without telling the guild. You are here with no back up. When you fall into rage, I will have won this fight." Romeo declared.
"And how can you make that happen?" Gildarts asked.
"Simple, I'll just have some of my men go visit Cana." Romeo replied.
Hearing these few words flipped a switch in Gildarts head. Gildarts' body flooded with magic and his expression became one that could kill. Gildarts seemed to teleport at the speed he showed. Gildarts easily knocked Romeo and Evan through several buildings. Romeo stood up first. Romeo staired Gildarts down as prepared to attack.
"I'll buy you thirty seconds." Romeo callout out.
Gildarts rushed forward and threw another punch at Romeo. Romeo attempted to block it but was knocked back into more buildings. Romeo had blood falling down his arms and his head.
"I should have known that I couldn't try fighting safely against you." Romeo said as he clenched his fists.
The veins in Romeo's body seemed to almost pop out of his skin. Across his body, Veins appeared from where they were hidden in the skin. Gildarts not letting a moment be wasted rushed forward to deliver another blow. This time. Romeo ducked under it and sent his own punch that sent Gildarts back a few feet.
"Crushing Evil, Spreading the Truth: Absolute Heaven" Gildarts called out as he prepared a heavy strike against Romeo.
Romeo seeing this instead prepared for his own attack.
"Gale Dragon Slayer Secret Art: Night of the Big Wind" Romeo called out with his entire body glowing in a green aura.
The two met with their fists striking. The ground shattered from their clash. The pure aura of the attacks could be seen from the residents fleeing the town. Dust surrounded the two as neither one would back down.
"Romeo it's time for you to give up this senseless act. You can't win." Gildarts yelled.
"I am doing what you could never do." Romeo screamed as blood began to shoot out of the tears in arm. "I will make the choices the guild never could."
"Then you shall die trying." Gildarts shouted as he won the clash.
As Gildarts was about to make the finishing blow, time seemed to stop. Gildarts swung to see that arm was now missing.
"You focused all your attention on me but you ignored the real threat." Romeo laughed.
Gildarts jumped back, grabbing the bleeding wound. Gildarts looked and saw that his arm was cut from just above the elbow. Gildarts looked at his opponents and saw Evan but with a black aura covering his body and his arm holding his sword seemed to warp into something sinister.
"That's what's funny, you guys are so blind in your own self righteousness that you are blind to the real threats in this world. With this, I enter into the next step of my plan." Romeo explained as he bursted into laughter. "There are things more dangerous than magic."
