On the outside, strong winds were blowing the lighter objects away and making it a bit difficult to stand in place. Natsu discretely placed Kageyama's body near a magic cart before he and Happy left to go to Erigor. Not noticing that Natsu left, the group try to figure out which way Clover Town was; when they got their bearings, Erza finally noticed that Natsu was gone, "Damn it Natsu!" She clearly wasn't happy, "He must have ran off after we got out. People we have to hurry, we can't let him face Erigor alone!" The group hurried onto the vehicle, and Erza drove as fast as she could.
Now
The group was traveling quickly, by magical car, to the direction of Clover Canyon. Kageyama, who had just awoken, was curious about something, "So, why did you bring me?" His question garnered the team's attention, including the previously sleeping Ryner, "I mean, I'm your enemy, aren't I? So I ask again, 'why did you bring me?'" When none of them answered, he let out a bitter laugh as he thought of a reason. "Oh, I see. You're going to use me as a bargaining chip. Well let me tell you, he doesn't accept failures, so you might as well kill me now."
Ryner let everyone know that he was awake, "I could erase you from existence right now, if you want." Lucy got scared, stating that it was a bit overboard, but the lazy man continued, "You have to realize that there is more to life than death, some of us didn't know that until they had the blood of others on their hands." The last part was said silently, it was almost too silent for the group to hear it; but, a certain blonde heard it, so she filed it away for a later date.
Five Minutes later, Clover Canyon
Erigor was flying at speeds that rivaled a coal train; that is why he wasn't expecting what came next to happen. The assassin wasn't prepared for a fiery fist to knock him down onto the train tracks. "Erigor!" The person, the one that hit him, was revealed to be Natsu, "You're going to pay for what you did to us!" Natsu started to charge at the wind mage with his hands lit.
"Not so fast!" Erigor put out his left hand, a magic circle appeared, "Wind Blades!" Blades of wind started to launch towards Natsu, who had to stop charging in order to dodge. Erigor started to fly up while he continued his assault on Natsu.
"Erigor, you coward!" Natsu didn't enjoy the idea of fighting an enemy in the air, "Get back down here!" He realized that Erigor would not listen to him, so Natsu was about to jump after Erigor; however, Erigor prepared another spell.
"Storm Bringer!" The magic circle appeared under Natsu's feet, and a tornado picked up Natsu; it cut his skin as it spun him around in the air. When Natsu landed with a thump, Erigor tried to finish him off by slicing open Natsu's throat; but, Natsu blocked the strike with a magically enhanced forearm, shocking Erigor.
"I'm not going down that easily," Natsu groaned out, "I'm a lot tougher than that." He and the dark mage start to go head to head, Natsu was attacking with fists coated in flames, and Erigor was countering him with his scythe and some minor wind spells. Natsu was getting tired of the back and forth, so he prepared one of his strongest attacks, "Fire Dragon's Roar!"
When Erigor saw the flames coming towards him, he stretched out his left hand, "Wind Wall!" The small barrier of wind nullified Natsu's fire. He realized that his normal tactics wouldn't work on the fire wizard, so he decided to take it a little more seriously. He made his scythe spin, creating a vortex of wind, "Storm Mail!" Erigor's scythe disappeared and dark winds obscured his body from sight. "Prepare yourself."
Natsu tried to punch Erigor, but the raging winds of Erigor's wind armor pushed him back. "That's not fair; you just wrapped yourself in wind." He prepares a spell, "This should break through it, Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!" Natsu launched himself at Erigor and attempted to punch him; however, the wind blew out the fire, shocking Natsu, and it sent him flying back.
"I knew it," Erigor laughed at Natsu's plight, "you're weak without your flames, boy!" The white haired man needed to hurry up in order to catch the guild masters' meeting. "I don't have the time to deal with you any longer, fly!" A magic circle appeared in front of Erigor, "Storm Shredder!" A sound akin to that of an automatic rifle occurred when the blades of wind were shot towards the fire wizard; none of the blades hit its target however. Erigor increased the power of his wind, throwing Natsu back. "I'm tired of this!" Erigor started to pump magic into a magic circle, "Now face the winds that shred all!" The glow brightened, it was nearly blinding "Emera Baram!"
The spell littered Natsu with cuts, shredding his vest into nothing, "I'm surprised your body is intact," another laugh came from the man as he thought Natsu was dead, "don't worry though, the masters will follow you soon enough."
"SHUT UP!" Natsu was still conscious, "I thought I told you, I won't go down that easily!" The Fairy Tail member started to get frustrated about Erigor underestimating him and his inability to properly fight the assassin; his frustration start to affect his magic, making a fire typhoon around his body that was steadily increasing in size and temperature. The fire's temperature increased to a level that Natsu' location became a low pressure zone, sucking all the air towards him, including Erigor's wind armor.
The assassin was so shocked at this that he didn't see Natsu rocket towards him, at speeds greater than what the average human eye could track. "Fire Dragon's Sword Horn!" The flames on Natsu's head shaped into a horn as he rammed it into Erigor. The man couldn't handle the strength of the attack, so he was almost immediately knocked out and dropped the Lullaby.
"Natsu!" He turned around to see Erza driving a magic-mobile.
"Hey Erza, you just missed me beat Erigor."
Erza spoke, as she and the rest of the people got out of the car, "Nice work Natsu. Maybe while we're here," she was referring to how close to Clover Town they were, "we can go and visit master." Gray made a comment on how he would have dealt with Erigor easier than the bleeding Natsu, causing them to argue. Erza thought that the antics were slightly funny, but no of them noticed what Kageyama was doing.
The sound of an engine activating caught the group's attention, "Later, flies!" Kageyama shouted as he drove the vehicle and picked up the cursed flute with his shadow.
He drove too fast for any of them to catch up normally, Ryner realized this quickly, so he started to cast a spell, three circles appeared around his body, "I offer up this contract to bear the wicked beast that sleeps within the earth!" Ryner's body glowed for half a second, before he was off, leaving only a trail of light to let everyone know he went after Kageyama.
