*UPDATED VERSION 8/3/2018*

Simon POV

How does Erza and Lucy keep up and control these two?! I'm losing my mind already from listening to them argue for the past hour. This must be a record, it had been 10 minutes without arguing… Wait… They have started again… I thought to soon. They are doing the exact thing opposite I was thinking. I must have jinxed it… Sigh…

"Watch it flametard!" Gray said.

"Are you starting something Ice butt!" Natsu said getting in Gray's face.

"You already have Lava Loser!"

"Snow cone!"

And then I lost it, "ENOUGH!" I yelled. After this is done, I am going to praise Erza and Lucy since they are goddesses if they can deal with this daily.

"BUTT OUT!" They both yelled at me before realizing they were in sync which they turned and faced each other again, glaring.

"Stop copying me!" They both said in sync again. Their magic energies were raising as their frustration grew.

"This is ridiculous! Do I need to connect to Erza? Or Lucy?!" I said to them, threatening them once again into conformity.

"No!" They both yelled in fear and we were back into the peaceful silence.

A few minutes later we came across a cavernous room filled with platforms hanging by chains attached to the ceiling. I had a feeling that this was one of the Trinity Raven's arena's. If I had to give a guess, it would be Fukuro due to the free space to fly in.

Flashback

"So which direction is everyone going?" Lucy asked.

"Well, I don't know the exact locations of each of them, but I do know what type of rooms would be most optimal for their magic and fighting techniques," I said.

"Really? Could you tell us please,"

"Yes. Their leader, Ikaruga, would be somewhere she could sword fight. Vidaldus would need a large room with acoustics. Finally Fukuro would need a room with a large ceiling,"

"So Ikaruga uses swords for her magic and fighting, that would be best for Erza and her group. What about Vidaldus and Fukuro?"

"Vidaldus uses rock and hair magic. Fukuro is a little… Interesting… He uses jetpacks to fly and attack. He also eats his opponents and digests them to gain their magic power. If someone gets eaten, get them out fast since after about 15-20 minutes the damage is irreparable and the mage will be gone," I said.

"Great information, but at the same time highly disturbing. If any group encounters Fukuro, be careful when in close combat," Lucy said

After a pregnant pause Millianna said "well I guess each team picks a tunnel-nya,"

"Good luck everyone. Please be careful!" Erza said before heading into a tunnel with her group. I hope she gets Ikaruga since she probably has the best chance at winning.

I turn to my temporary teammates and saw the pink-haired mage, Natsu, running off into a tunnel with the blue cat, Happy, following him. I hear a sigh next to me and turn to face the ice-make mage, Gray. He had an exasperated look on his face, but a certain gleam to his eyes that spoke his excitement of what is soon to come.

"Well, we now know which way we are going," he said before running off after the mage and cat while yelling at them.

"Pyro! We were told to do this as a team. I don't want to work with you either but do you really was to face both Lucy's and Erza's wraths?" and both the mage and the cat froze. They turned to face each other with frightened faces before coming to the conclusion that they do not want to face the two girls wraths.

"Scary Lucy and Mad Erza…" we heard them say when we caught up to them.

"Yeah dumbass, remember that Lucy came up with the plan and then Erza agreed," Gray said. The Fairy Tail mages took a moment to digest the thought before visibly shivering in the thought of the consequences.

"I want to survive! Hurry up you slowpokes," Natsu said before starting to walk down the tunnel again. We all started to follow.

"You ran off with no warning ashbreath!"

"Not my fault that you couldn't keep up!"

This went on for another couple minutes before they stopping and glared at each other, their aura's flaring up.

"ENOUGH! Do I need to contact Lucy and Erza?"

"No!" they both squeaked.

"Then let us continue,"

End of Flashback

I turned around to find those two idiots that we were at a Trinity Raven arena. We need to keep our guards up, but I found them in each other's faces yet again. I was about to grind into them, but someone interrupted us.

"Hoo-hoo! It seems that yooo-u have found me. Have you come to taste justice!" A weird owlish figure said, descending from the rafters. Well this confirmed my suspicions.

"What in Mavis are you talking about? No matter, now I can beat someone up! I'm all fired up!" Natsu said before jumping and meeting Fukuro in the air.

"Hoo-hoo! I think not! Let you feel justice's wings!" Fukuro said and shot his jet pack at Natsu. It was a direct hit and Natsu was sent flying around the room hanging onto the jet pack.

"Ugh. We need to go help flamebrain. He doesn't do well with anything moving," Gray said before jumping off and onto another platform.

"Ice-make: LANCE!" Gray called out. Out of his hands erupted a magic circle, and a dozen lances made of ice shot at Fukuro.

"Hoo-hoo! That's not righteous! Take Justice's Retribution!" and then the rockets that still held the dragon slayer changed course to hit the platform Gray was standing on.

"Gray! Jump!" I yelled at him.

This went on for 20 minutes where Gray avoided Fukuro's attempts and tried to hit him as well. Happy eventually got Natsu off the 'flying death machine' per Natsu. Throughout this time I was able to formulate a plan.

I telepathically sent the plan to Natsu, Gray, and Happy. I needed them to come to me so that I could cast my darkness spell. If I am holding onto them, then they should not be affected by the spell, which will give us the advantage. Both Natsu and Gray can attack Fukuro while I maintain the spell. If one of them gets a finishing shot then to take it. If not, I can shoot a few darkness orbs, coupled with a stream of darkness and my eternal nightmare spell. Hopefully, that should do it.

The return from them honestly expected. Natsu wanted more action, but I reigned him into completing the plan by threatening him with connecting to Lucy or Erza. Thank Earthland something can make him cooperate.

"Okay, then start to head over here. Try and be discrete though. We don't need to tip him off," I sent to the, telepathically.

"Happy!" Natsu called out.

"Aye sir!" was Happy's response before nose diving into where Fukuro currently was, with a flaming fist ready.

"I can't believe how stupid flametard can get. He cannot even flow a simple order as to come over here, instead he attacks the weird bird-dude," Gray said as he reached the platform I currently was on.

"Let's give him a chance to come over here. If he doesn't, then he will have to figure out how to see in the dark," I said, turning around to see Natsu get swallowed by Fukuro.

"Shit," I said.

Natsu POV

I don't know what happened. I was circling with Happy, trying to get another shot on Ferio before going with what's-his-name's plan. I was dropping down for a fire punch to Birdbeak's face when suddenly, it was dark, warm, and slimy. There was a weird force that was pulling me down, and I could not do anything to slow down. When putting out my hand, I felt a wet, sticky, soft material. I tried to light my hands on fire and burn my way out, but my magical energy was being sucked out of me.

"Hey guys? Where are you? Where am I!" I call out in confusion.

"NAAATTSSUUU!" I hear. Happy!

"Geez you idiot. Now we have to save your ass," I heard Icicle say.

Where in Earthland am I!

Gray POV

Ugh, that idiot! Now I have to go and save him as well as giving the bird the heimlich!

"So what's the plan?" I asked Simon.

"I don't know since-"

"Hoo-hoo! I'm all fired up-hoo!"

We turned to where Fukuro stood and were shocked at his appearance. His eyes had a dragon like appearance with the mix of his previous owl like eyes. His wings also had scales lining the ends of them. Finally, there was a tuft of pink hair that sprouted from the top of his head. Heat was radiating off him in waves. Suddenly, his hands burst into flames.

"Gray can you hear me?" I heard. I realized it was Simon sending out his telepathic link to me.

"Yeah. What's the plan?"

"Same as before but I'll take Natsu's spot in the equation. If either of us gets a finishing shot, take it,"

"Okay let's go save flametard,"

I felt Simon's hand on my shoulder before everything went black. I was concerned for a moment that it did not work, but it then cleared with only a slight black haze on the edge of my vision. I looked over at Simon and nodded my head to signal that I was good to go. After, we jumped into action.

Almost everything we shot was dodged. We could not figure out how he could dodge while losing his sight.

"How in Earthland can he dodge everything?!" I mumbled under my breath.

"Justice will always prevail in the darkness that evil conjures! Justice cannot be dampened or covered in darkness-hoo!" Fukuro said before delivering a fire-coated fist into Simon's stomach, instantly knocking him out.

Great. Started out with 3 capable mages against one hybrid but now only down to me.

Fukuro turned to me and said in a smug tone, "Hoo-hoo! Are you prepared to face Justice's Wrath?"

"All I see is bird-brained idiot, so I like my changes right now," I said moving into a defensive position for the attack that would come from my taunting.

Fukuro's face turned into a grin, "I'm all fired up-hoo!" And moved into an offensive position. He then sent a fire dragon roar at me. It was hot, but not as hot as Natsu's. I pushed out some more energy than what was currently surrounding me and protecting from the sorry excuse of a roar. I froze his flames easily, and smirked at Fukuro.

"Hoo-hoo! It seems that you have some power too-oo! I think… I'll eat you too-oo!" Fukuro said after shrugging off initial shock of the frozen flames. After he said his intention, he rushed at me suddenly, I was in this hybrid's mouth… Or is it beak?

What the hell?! This is disgusting!

"Ice Make: FREEZE!"

"Ah! To cold!" And he coughed me up. Thank Mavis! If any longer I would have puked!

"Now let's finish this… Ice Make: 7 SLICE DANCE!"

"Ho-ugh!" and Fukuro got sent flying up from the hit.

"Followed with… Ice Make: GEYSER!"

"Ho-" and Fukuro got sent up and frozen in the ice magic. It then broke and Fukuro fell down toward me.

"And finally - Ice Make: PUNCH!"

Fukuro was sent flying but due to where the punch was placed, I managed to hit Natsu out of Fukuro. Fukuro threw up Natsu before saying "hoo-hoo… The wings of justice have fallen.." before falling unconscious.

"Ugh! Where in Mavis's name was I! What happened! Where is that owl-bird-dude?" Natsu said rapidly after jumping up with a flaming fist that was extinguished when Happy flew down and fell into him.

"NATSU! YOU'RE ALIVE!"

"Your useless flame-ass brain got you eaten by bird brain, which we were warned about I might add, that currently is lying over there," I said to him.

"Oh was that why it was warm, squishy, moist, and constricting for a while?" Natsu said innocently.

"Yeah, I had to save your ass by getting you out of him before he digested you and became a vegetable,"

"I DIDN'T NEED YOUR HELP SNOW PRINCESS!" He yelled at me.

"APPARENTLY YOU DID SINCE I HAD TO SAVE YOU!" I yelled right back.

We were at each other's that's again while walking back down the hallway, but I had this feeling that we were forgetting something…


Tell me what you think! Love to hear from y'all!
