Chapter 36: The New Species Pokémon Enters and the Fall of Titania

Flying above everyone at the tower is a mythical Pokémon Mew who swings its tail.

"Mew…" Sakura calls and Jellal gets off from the lacrima.

"I see." He says. "Are you also trying to stop me?" Jellal questions.

"Mew?" The Pokémon tilts its head.

"I won't let you!" The blue-haired teen declares and activates Meteor and flies towards Mew. As he about to hit it, Mew instantly disappears before him causing the teen to gasp in shock and stops his tracts. "Where did it go?" He questions when he notices that Mew appears behind him. "When did it…" He trails off and rushes towards him but once again Mew disappears. Once Jellal finds it again, he chases after it several times from Mew disappearing and reappearing behind him. Then as the teen charges at it, Mew disappears again and sees that he is charging towards the lacrima wall, slamming into it as Mew appears again, giggling in mid-air.

"Wow… As expected from Mew…" Sakura comments in awe.

Out from the lacrima debris, Jellal peels himself off and glares angrily at the Pokémon. "You foolish being! I won't forgive you for this!" Jellal says while Mew is looking around, apparently not paying any attention.

The teen's body lights up with gold aura while Mew flies away. As he chases after Mew, the Jellal casts a few golden bullets at it, but misses. Mew then hides behind a pillar, making the teen's rage rise.

"Do you think you can hide from me?!" Jellal shouts as Mew shoots from behind the pillar and off across the ground. Jellal then shoots another bullet and this time, hits Mew head-on, sending it flying into the wall. Sakura and Latias gasp as the tattooed teen grins evilly.

Suddenly a powerful Aura Sphere emerges from where Mew was and hits Jellal with full force, sending him hurtling backwards into the ground. Then Mew comes hovering back over as Jellal shoots out of the smoke.

"I have to admit, you are a worthy adversary, but I don't have time dealing with you. I don't want the tower damage any further."

Then a small pebble lands next to his feet catching his attention. Turning around he notices the battered up Natsu having another pebble of lacrima in his right hand as he begins to push himself up. The dragon slayer is heavily beaten up, and almost completely out of energy as Natsu finds himself barely able to throw the pebble as it lands and bounces past Jellal, nevertheless he picks up another one and throws it, hitting the blue-haired teen in his chest as he continues to just looking at him.

"That attack hit." Natsu weakly says. "So breaking this tower or um, lacrima… That's bad huh?" He asks with a mischievous look in his eyes as he looks at Jellal. Upon hearing this, Jellal's eyes widen as he gasps in shock, knowing exactly what Natsu is getting at. Natsu lifts himself back up onto one knee. "Rotten luck for you!" Natsu yells as he raises his left fist and slams it down into the ground, destroying the ground and sending some cracks splitting into different directions.

"Don't!" Jellal yells.

"Breaking things happens to be Fairy Tail wizards' specialty! I'm all fired up! More than I've ever been!"

Jellal glares at him full of complete anger. "You little brat!" He exclaims.

Sitting at the edge of the roof is Mew getting the front row seats of the battle as it swings its tail excitingly.

Out in the ocean

The sea remains calm once again as Juvia's Water Bubble floats in the air giving the group inside of it a view of the new Tower of Heaven.

"I wonder if Natsu, Erza, Latias, and Sakura are okay?" Lucy says.

"They're fine. Because they're Fairy Tail wizards." Happy says and Takeru nods in agreement.

"You've got that right. All we can do now is believe in them." Gray says.

Back at the tower

"You little brat! I'll end this in an instant! I'll send you to Hell regretting the fact you ever stood up again!" Jellal states.

"One thing I know is that I can be real stubborn. If you're gonna do it, then give me your best shot!" Natsu eagerly challenges.

Jellal summons a golden magic circle in front of him and sends a barrage of golden magic blasts towards the dragon slayer. The magic blasts splits up as well as a few go after Natsu, the pink-haired teen jumps to his right to avoid some of the blasts. "Who there!" He yells as he continues running to avoid more of the incoming blasts.

"Bring it!" Natsu shouts as he launches himself into the air towards Jellal. The blue-haired teen swings his left arm across his chest and throws it outwards, sending a massive magic blast into Natsu which sends him sliding back across the ground. Natsu digs his feet into the ground to keep himself from flying as he tries his best to blow off the attack causing more destruction to the lacrima as his feet slides through the ground. Just then nearby, due to the bright light of Jellal's attack seems to stir up Erza as she opens her eyes to see what is happening.

"Erza?" Sakura calls as she looks down at the red-haired knight.

"Sakura…?" Erza groggily calls and notices Natsu is having a hard time before she shoots up. "Natsu!" She yells out when Natsu comes to a stop and breaks through Jellal's attack shocking him.

Natsu then charges forward towards Jellal with a grin while chuckling. "What's wrong? That's all you got? You scared of breakin' the tower so you're holding back? That ain't going to work on me bub!" Natsu yells.

"You ain't gonna talk so big for long your brat!" Jellal yells holding his left hand outwards as he cast another magic blast which sends Natsu flying back. He however recovers as Natsu rolls backwards onto his feet.

"Fire Dragon's Brilliant Flame!" Natsu yells as he creates a massive fireball and slams it into the ground causing more destruction to the lacrima as a pillar of fire erupts into the air. Jellal covers his eyes at first but then lowers them and watches in horror as his tower of lacrima is destroyed piece by piece, lacrima debris flying everywhere and being destroyed due to Natsu's attack.

"He's… the tower…" Erza says realizing what he is doing.

"I get it! Jellal can't resurrect Zeref if the tower is destroyed!" Sakura says.

Eventually the pillar of fire disperses as Natsu lands back on the ground crouched down on one knee and breathes heavily from the use of all his attacks combined with the hits he's received from Jellal's previous attacks, but nevertheless has a massive satisfied grin on his face. Seeing what is becoming of the tower he worked so hard to build over the past eight years begins to make Jellal furious as he clenches his fists.

"The… The tower I spent 8 years constructing… How dare you!" Jellal furiously questions with a crazed look in his eyes with clenched teeth and sweat running down his face.

Natsu picks himself up, albeit stumbling around a little bit before regaining his balance. "Well, what a shame… I told you remember? My specialty is destroying stuff." He says.

Erza noticed however the way he is panting, his shoulders constantly rising up and going down from his breathing. "Natsu… he can barely even stand…" Erza thoughts.

"Natsu…" Sakura mutters.

"You won't get away with it!" Jellal yells out, crossing his hands together into an X and then raising his arms above his head as another golden magic circle appears. Suddenly all the air around the teen seems to be sucked into a vortex around him, and then blasted outwards in a strong gust of wind that continues to blow around forcing Natsu to cover his eyes with Erza and Sakura on the ground closing their eyes while holding onto Latias as their hair and clothing blow backwards from the tremendous force of air. Erza opens her eyes and gasps at what she sees.

"What… is that…?" Sakura questions in fear.

"What with this magical power? It makes me sick…" Natsu says.

"The shadows are extending backwards to the light source!" Erza says as she sees her, Sakura, and Latias' shadows are being extending. "Oh no! This magic is…"

"Fall into the infinite darkness, dragon wizard!" Jellal yells as what appears a small black hole appears a few feet above his head sucking in the air around him.

"Jellal!" Erza yells at him as she suddenly appears in front of Natsu with her arms extended outwards shocking him, Sakura, and Latias. "Will you let me killed as well?!" She questions, seeing this Jellal gasps in shock. Noticing the determined, unwavering look in her shaking eyes, he knows for a fact that she is willing to take his attack to protect her friend and he powers his magic attack down. "You need a body to resurrect Zeref correct?"

"Yes… It's a general requirement that the body be of a wizard about as powerful as one of the Ten Wizard Saints. But at this point, it doesn't have to be you anymore." Jellal says making Erza grunt in shock to hear him say that. "Die together, both of you!" He yells immediately resuming powering up his attack as above his head a giant black ball of dark magical energy reappears, one which seems to be getting much bigger as the air continues to get sucked in around it.

"Erza, move!" Natsu yells.

"You have nothing to fear. I will protect you." Erza says.

"Stop it!"

"Erza!" Sakura shouts and rushes towards in front of her, preparing her glove to block the attack.

"Heavenly Body Magic: Altairis!" Jellal yells as he throws his arms forward, sending the massive black magical energy ball flying towards Erza, causing a path of destruction in its wake.

"ERZA!" Natsu cries out in horror.

Erza closes her eyes and crosses her arms in an attempt to try and block the attack, but also as to accept her fate when Sakura pushes her away to use one of the defensive moves. However, a sudden figure appears in front of them and a silver magic circle appears in front of the figure who turns out to be none other than Simon as he uses his magic to try and block Jellal's attack. Seeing this shocks everyone including Jellal as they look on at him; Simon grunts in pain in his attempt to hold the attack back.

From the outside point of view, a massive explosion suddenly erupts from the tower.

The others see this becomes worried about what has happened and continues to look on wondering what that was.

"It exploded!" Happy yells.

"Th-They're okay… Right?" Lucy questions.

Suddenly, Sho puts his right fist to his heart and groan in pain.

"Sho, What's wrong?" Millianna asks with concern noticing this.

Sho looks back at the tower. "What is this unsettled feeling I have…?" He questions.

Back at the tower, the smoke of the explosion begins to clear, showing Simon badly injured from the attack, his clothing torn to shreds with all his upper body clothing completely gone as he has a look of anger and determination on his face. Behind him, Erza, Natsu, and Sakura look at the bruised and beaten Simon with shock.

"You're…" Natsu says.

As Erza looks at the way Simon stands, what he just did, it reminds her of what happened to Grandpa Rob all those years ago in the same tower.

"Simon…" She says.

Simon leans back a little as he begins grunting in pain. "Erza…" He says in a weakened tone before collapsing onto the ground.

"Simon!" Erza calls out as she quickly rushes over and kneels beside him.

"Still crawling around here?" Jellal nonchalantly questions walking forward a few feet. "You worm…"

"But, why? Didn't you escape?! Simon!" Erza tearfully questions as she can notice the weakened, no, dying look in his eyes as every breath of his seems to be shallow and painful.

"I-I'm glad… that I… c-could be… of help… t-to you… at last…" Simon coughs in pain.

"I understand! Now, no more talking!" Erza pleads as tears appeared in her left eye.

"You were… always… so kind…" Simon continues, his voice becoming quieter and his breathing raspier.

Simon… Simon!"

Simon looks at her out of the corner of his eye, suddenly tears appear in it as then it closes and the tear drops down his cheek and his breathing comes to a stop. His body goes limp and his head falls to the ground as Erza gasps in complete shock, horror, and sadness from Simon deceased. Natsu looks on silently with widened eyes as Sakura cries silently with Latias by her side also having tears in her eyes.

Tears drops begin dropping onto Simon's body, all which comes from Erza as her tears streams down her face with an absolute look of pain and agony as she whimpers, until she burst out in a painful cry. Until Jellal begins chuckling which then turns into full on laughter as he puts his right hand to his forehead and continues to laugh into the air.

"How pointless! How incredibly pointless!" Jellal throws his arms back. "They call that throwing away your life Simon! This doesn't change a thing! Because there is no way anyone is leaving this tower alive!"

"SHUT UP!" Natsu cries out in absolute fury as she suddenly appears in front of Jellal and slams his fist right across Jellal's face, sending him flying back and crashing into a slab of lacrima. The immense power behind the attack makes Jellal gag out in pain.

Sakura gasps and Erza then lifts her head, looking at Natsu and is taken back by what she sees as a wavy pillar of blue light suddenly appears around Natsu. Jellal recovers and looks forward and gasps in shock at what he sees.

"He's… The crazy bastard is eating Etherion!" He exclaims as in front of him Natsu has a rock of lacrima which is imbued with the power of Etherion in it and is eating the rock causing his body to outlined with a blue aura of light.

Upon swallowing the lacrima, Natsu's eyes shoot open as they are completely glowing blue and he lets out a battle roar before bending down with his fists up to his side. Then the air begins gathering around him until he throws his body up and lets out another battle cry with the air exploding outwards. Beams of blue light shoot out from some nearby cracks and gather around Natsu, as then everything dies down and Natsu slams his fists to the ground sending a powerful shockwave blast of blue magic energy towards Jellal which tears up the ground as it goes towards him. Jellal however jumps aside to dodge the attack.

Suddenly, blue liquid comes out from Natsu's mouth as he seems to choke on something. Natsu puts his hands to his throat and begins gagging as he falls onto his knees and then plants his head on the ground, then falling over as he begins rolling around like he is in pain.

"Natsu!" Sakura calls out.

"That's insane! Ethernano is fused with other elements than fire you know!" Erza yells out him.

Natsu sits up on his knees and continues crying into the air in immense pain.

"Did you seriously think you could power up by eating such powerful magic energy instead of flames? That kind of pea-brained thinking, will lead to your own downfall!" Jellal yells.

Natsu continues crying out in pain when his eyes open back up now glowing red and fire erupts from the ground all around him. The fire suddenly takes the shape of a dragon which even lets out a roar, as the Natsu is now bent down and his eyes still glowing red. He clenches his teeth as all of a sudden the skin around his eyes seems to begin turning almost scale-like. Jellal, Sakura, Erza all gasps at what they are seeing.

"He's actually absorbing Etherion?" Jellal questions in complete shock.

In a split second, Natsu launches himself forward and knees Jellal right in his face as a trail of fire blazes behind him. Natsu jumps onto a stalagmite and jumps off it towards Jellal. "You're the reason…" He slams his hand into Jellal's throat, breaking through as then once floor after another Natsu has Jellal crash through each and every one while holding onto him. "…that Erza is crying!"

Jellal cries out in anger and pain. "I made a promise!" Natsu yells.

-Flashback-

Simon turns and looks at Natsu with a smile on his face. "Natsu, take care of Erza."

-Flashback ends-

"I MADE A PROMISE!"

"You cocky bastard! Meteor!" Jellal says as he disappears from Natsu's grip, the dragon slayer turns around to see Jellal flying away back up the tower. Coming upon two giant slabs of lacrima, Natsu slides in between them and plants his hands and feet into them making him slide to a stop as he quickly launches himself back upwards after the blue-haired teen.

"You'll never be able to catch me at this speed!" Jellal says with a grin.

Natsu jumps from one falling piece of debris to another, until he reaches a certain distance that he launches himself off another debris and blasts himself upwards at an incredible speed using flames blasting out from his feet. This takes Jellal completely off guard as he is unable to react in time and Natsu slams his left fist straight into his stomach making him gag out in pain.

Black up top elsewhere, the ground erupts upwards as Natsu and Jellal fly out from it. "Impossible! I can't lose!" Jellal yells having recovered from the punch. Jellal knocks Natsu's fist away and twists around kicking Natsu in the chest sending him flying back downwards into a slab of lacrima. Jellal lands on and kicks off another slab of lacrima into the air. "I'm making a kingdom of freedom! Zeref whispered to me in my pain and fear… 'Do you desire true freedom?' Zeref beckoned… That's right, only I can sense Zeref! I am the chosen one! Zeref and I will create a truly free kingdom together!"

"And you'll make by taking away other's freedom?!" Natsu yells.

"Only ones with the will to change the world can make history!" Jellal sends slashing energy blasts at Natsu who dodges the incoming attacks. "Why can't you understand this?!" He throws his right arm around in a pattern creating a massive magic circle that seems quite familiar to the Fairy Tail wizards and trainer as Natsu gasps in shock.

"Abyss Break? You fiend! You plan to destroy the tower as well?!" Erza yells up to him.

"8 more years. No, this time I'll finish it in 5. Zeref, wait for me!" The blue-haired teen says with a grin. When suddenly, something happens to Jellal's stomach that causes excruciating pain on him. So much pain that it makes him stop in place before he can cast the spell. He then remembers Erza slashed him across the stomach that is affecting him now.

Jellal begins to fall back, the deconsentration of him causing the Abyss Break magic circle to disappear as he looks down and gasps when he sees as Natsu flies towards them. "You will never find freedom!" Natsu yells and his flames takes the form of a dragon. "There's no such thing as freedom for somebody taken over by ghosts!" Jellal's eyes widen in terror as all he can see before is a dragon made of fire flying towards him. "Free yourself first, Jellal!" Natsu throws his right fist forward and slams into Jellal's face as he lets out a battle roar as their attacks cause a massive explosion in the air. From the smoke, Jellal flies out of it as he begins falling towards the ground crying out in anger and pain until he crashes into the ground again with so much force it sends him crashing through all the floors into the very bottom of the tower of lacrima and sends a massive pillar of smoke rising into the air.

"What in the world?" Sho questions as the others see this from Juvia's water bubble.

"What's happening?" Wally wonders.

"It has to be Natsu." Happy says.

"Yeah, I agree." Lucy says.

"But, is that gonna be okay?" Millianna asks worryingly.

"It'll be okay… Or so I'd like to think. But he sure is going wild there." Gray says.

Back at the tower, at the very bottom of the place lies the defeated and knocked out Jellal in a smoking crater. While Natsu crashes back at the top on his hand and knees sending some dust and debris flying around him. Erza, Sakura, and Latias look at where Natsu lands in awe.

This is… Natsu's true power. This is… a Dragon Slayer!" Erza thoughts in awe as Natsu stands back up with a serious look in his eyes.

"So… this is what Simon meant by Natsu's true power." Sakura thought looking at Natsu.

"When Natsu obtains the true power of the dragons, he will destroy all evil before him!" Simon's words ring through her mind.

The smoke finally clears away, the battle of the Tower of Heaven is finally over. "He even defeated Jellal…" Erza thought as the girls continue to look over at Natsu as he turns around looking over at Erza before giving her an open smile. Erza looks back at him with an open smile of her own "The battle I've been fighting these 8 years is now over." Erza closes her mouth and looks down. "Now everyone is truly free."

"Natsu!" Erza looks up upon hearing Sakura's voice, to see as Natsu begins to collapse to the ground which the trainer and Latias rush towards him before catching him.

Natsu!" Erza calls out as she quickly rushes over to him.

"He's all right. He used a lot of power to day and not to mention eating the lacrima didn't help out."

"I see." Then Erza puts her arms around the three, embracing them in a deep hug taking Sakura and Latias off by surprise. "You three are really incredible… Really…"

Sakura and Latias look at her and smiles before seeing Mew flying down towards them.

Just then, the entire place suddenly begins to violently shake and a blue light begins to brighten up from within the lacrima, making Erza and Sakura both gasp in shock.

Out in the ocean, the others see as all of a sudden bright blue beams of light shoot out from the tower of Heaven.

"Nya, how pretty!" Millianna says.

"No, that's…" Wally trails off.

"I can feel a terrible magical power coming from that light!" Juvia says.

"Wait… Then that means… Could Etherion be going out of control?" Gray says.

"Out of control? Why?!" Lucy questions looking at Gray worryingly.

"The magical power of Etherion…" Sho trails off.

"Keeping that great amount of magical power in one place can never be stable for long." Happy says.

"A turbulent vortex of magical power with nowhere else to go will burst out, causing a giant explosion." Juvia says.

"Whoa! We'll be caught in it as well!" Wally says with tears and sweat streaming down his face while Millianna has terrified tears in her eyes.

"What about Nee-san and the others still inside?" Sho questions.

"This isn't about who's saving who anymore! We're all going to wiped out together!" Gray states with clenched teeth.

Meanwhile, inside the tower, the magical power of Etherion begins bursting out of the lacrima all over the place as it continues to shake violently.

"We got to get out of here!" Sakura exclaims as she climbs on Latias' back.

"Yeah!" Erza replies and puts Natsu on her back.

As the two begin to move, Erza suddenly stops and looks to her right making Latias stop. "Erza?" Sakura asks. Looking over where she is she then figures out why. Off in the distance the body of Simon slowly begins to slide as the area he's in has already begun to collapse with his body heading towards an opened up cracked in the floor.

"Simon…" Erza calls in sadness.

"Erza…"

"Let's go…" She says.

Sakura nods in agreement and the two begin making their way towards the crack. As for Simon, his body slides off and falls into the abyss before with a smile still remaining on his face as he disappears into the darkness. Latias and Erza approach the crack when suddenly a blast of Etherion erupts right next to them to their right sending the three flying into the air to the left as they cry out in pain. Erza hits the ground, followed by a stilled unconscious Natsu. Both Sakura and Latias rolls across the ground a few times and let out a painful grunt upon coming to a stop on their sides.

Sakura! Latias!" Erza calls out.

The damage she and Latias received from the fight earlier from the day catches up to them and pass out.

"Sakura!" Erza yells out as around her and the three liquified lacrima begins to appear swirling up around them. "Magical power strong enough to deform the container… the lacrima… That's even more destructive power than I had imagined. Even if we get outside, we'll be caught up in the explosion." Erza thoughts as the liquified lacrima harden up and yet the debris continues to fall and Etherion beams shoot up into the air. "Damn it! Is this the end?" Erza angrily questions punching her left fist into the ground. She looks over at the unconscious Natsu, Sakura, and Latias with sadness before turning away and then standing back up.

"No… There's no way I'll give up. Now it's my turn to save you, Natsu, Sakura, Latias." Another eruption of Etherion nearby forces Erza to cover her face from the force of the shockwave and flying debris. "But it's impossible to hold it back. What can I do?" She questions when she gasps and remembers when Jellal has said before.

The tremendous amount of magical power this lacrima now stores, will be fused into your body will be deconstructed and then reconstructed into Zeref."

"Fused?" Erza widens her eyes upon realization and looks at the nearby slab of solidified lacrima to see her reflection. "If I can fuse with Etherion, then can I control this power? Can I stop the explosion?" She plants her right hand on the lacrima. "I've got to take the chance." The scarlet knight pushes onto the lacrima; at first, nothing happened but then her hand passes through it, seemingly to cause her body some pain at first but she fights it and regains her composure. "Good. The lacrima is still accepting me." She thoughts as her arm begin slowly going into it.

Unknown to her nearby, Natsu begins to stir as his eyes open up and notice what Erza's doing. Erza continues to push the rest of her arm into the lacrima as then Natsu pushes himself onto his knees with a worried look wondering what she is doing.

"Erza…?" Natsu calls.

The said person gasps hearing Natsu's voice, hoping that she would've gotten through this with him still passed out since she had a feeling of what is now going to happen. "Natsu?"

"What are you doing? Erza… You're putting yourself into the lacrima?" Natsu asks.

"This is the only way to stop Etherion." Erza says.

Stop Etherion?" Natsu questions since he had no idea what is going on until a sudden violent shake makes him realize what this is.

"Yes. Look around you. The tower will shortly explode as Etherion goes out of control. But if I can fuse with Etherion and suppress it."

Natsu gasps upon hearing what she is doing. "What are you saying, you idiot?! If you do that you'll-"

Erza cries out in pain as her right arm all the way in the lacrima. "Erza!" Natsu yells as he gets up and attempts to run up to pull her out, but in his weakened state, he falls right back down almost immediately.

"Don't worry about it anymore! I'll stop if for sure!" Erza says as she begins forcing the rest of her body into the lacrima.

"Don't!"

Erza now her arms and lower half of her body in the lacrima, the process still causing her extreme pain as she cries out. "Stop it! Erza!" Natsu yells now running towards her on his hands and feet but only managing to fall right at the feet of the lacrima she's in, still too exhausted to do much more.

"Sakura!" Natsu yells turning his head around, only to see the unconscious Sakura with Latias lying beside her making him gasp and his eyes widen in shock.

"Natsu…" Erza calls catching his attention. Natsu looks up at her as Erza manages to pull her left arm from the lacrima and puts her hand to his chin, a sorrowful look in her eyes. "I couldn't have lived without Fairy Tail. A world without my friends in unthinkable. You are all just that important to me." Erza says with a sad tone.

"Erza…"

Erza gives Natsu a saddened smile before puller her hand away. "If I can save everyone… then I do so without hesitation. Even if it takes this body…" Natsu's eyes widen in horror. "…so be it!" She yells out one last time before being fully engulfed into the lacrima. Erza's body begins slowly float through the water-like insides of the lacrima, her hair flows in the 'water' of lacrima.

"Erza! Get out of there, Erza!" Natsu cries out as he is on his knees pounding at the lacrima.

Erza looks back at him as he pounds against the lacrima, screaming her name she knew but she couldn't hear them. "Natsu, take care of everyone for me. Because I will be by your side." She thought as she closes her eyes, accepting her fate and floats deeper into the lacrima.

Tears in Natsu's eyes as they can't believe what has just happened. "ERZA–!" He cries out as then all around them Etherion beams shoot up until one massive one erupts beneath them, fully engulfing them before it expands outward.

Back in the ocean, a massive bright light of Etherion shoots up into the sky as the whole place is glowing brightly.

"It's exploding!" Wally cries out as his eyes widen in terror as Millianna clings onto him with the both of them crying out in terror while Sho and Gray look on in shock.

"No, it's not! Etherion is heading up into the sky!" Gray states.

Lucy gasps in shock as just then a massive wave blasts outwards from the island towards them. The waves and shockwave from the force of Etherion send the water bubble flying away.

"It disappeared!" Happy yells as everyone braces for the bumpy ride.

"Etherion went into the sky!" Sho exclaims.

"Erza! Sakura! Natsu!" Lucy cries out.

Her cry echoes out as then the light of Etherion finally disappears and everything begins to calm down again.

Elsewhere
At a beach

As the sound of waves moving on the sand while the moon shines silver two multi-color lights appear on the sand. When the lights disappear, Sakura and Latias appear as they sprawl on the sand.
