Lucy: We're fairy tail's most powerful team! Prepare to get your asses kicked!
Erigor: You guys take it from here. I'll go play the flute. Show these worthless flies the power of the dark guild Eisenwald!
Erigor then left the station through the window and headed towards his actual destination.
Erza: Are you running away? You coward!
Gray: Damn! He's gone into the other block.
Erza: Natsu! Gray! You two go after him! Me, Lucy, and Marcus will handle the ones here.
Natsu and Gray: Huh!?
Erza: If you two combine your powers, not even Erigor can beat you two. Erigor intends to use this station to broadcast the cursed spell song. We have to do everything we can to stop that from happening.
Erza: Are you two listening to me!?
Natsu and Gray: O-of course we are!!
Erza: Go!
Natsu and Gray: Aye, aye!!
Lucy: And the most powerful team breaks up!
Member 1: Two of them ran away!
Member 2: They're going after Erigor!
Rayule: Leave them to me! I'll stop them and be right back.
Rayule then used his magic to produce black leather bands from all of his fingers. He then attached them to the railing of the second floor of the station and propelled himself after Natsu and Gray.
Kageyama: I'm going too. I've got a score to settle with that pink haired guy.
Byard: Look at that! Rayule and Kage have deserted us. I don't get it. Playing with these two little girls after we take care of that guy will be so much fun.
Karacka: They're doing it to help the mission. That's a lot more important than your likes and dislikes.
Erza: Once we take care of these guys we'll go after Erigor too.
Marcus: Alright.
Lucy: Yeah!
Byard: What can two girls do? Hey, lest their pretty girls.
Member 1: I can't wait to have some fun with them once we kill that guy who's in the way.
Member 2: Hey, maybe they'll put on a strip show for us! They are fairies after all. Fairies are supposed to grant any wishes that you may have.
Marcus: Alright you guys I was gonna just knock you out but after hearing what you said not only to my cousin but to my best friend, yeah I'm gonna kill you all.
Erza: Lucy's your cousin!?
Marcus: Yeah but now's not the time to discuss that. We can do that some other time. I have some things I need to tell the both of you anyways.
Lucy: Huh?
Erza: What things?
Marcus: Like I said, some other time. Now let's get this over with Erza.
Erza: Right!
Lucy: Hey! What about me?
Marcus: Just sit back and watch.
Lucy: Hmph!
Erza then used her magic to summon a sword seemingly out of thin air. Marcus lit his fists on fire. The left was black while the right was white.
Lucy: She brought out her sword! Her magic sword! Marcus try not to destroy the place this time!
Marcus: Shush!
Member 3: That's no big deal!
Member 4: We've got magic swords and flames all over our guild!
Member 5: Let's kill the guy then strip the girls!
Marcus: Tch! I'm gonna kill you bastards.
Marcus then jumped into the crowd of guild members and started attacking them left and right.
Erza then ran and attacked some guild members herself. While Erza was attacking the members she failed to notice that a guild member had snuck up behind Lucy and was about to plunge his sword right into her heart.
However thankfully Marcus saw his cousin in mortal danger and in what seemed like a blink of an eye appeared behind Lucy and got stabbed himself in his left shoulder.
Marcus: Tch!
Lucy: Wha- Marcus! Are you okay!?
Marcus: I'm fine. It was a dagger so I'm not in any mortal danger. You were however because it was aimed right at your heart.
Lucy: It seems that Erza has finished off the guild.
Erza: Marcus, Lucy someone escaped. I want you two to go after him.
Erza then noticed Marcus' stab wound on his shoulder.
Erza: Are you okay?
Marcus: I'm fine. However the guy who was trying to kill my cousin isn't.
Erza looked beside Marcus and saw a man with a hole in his chest where his heart would be.
Erza: I see.
Marcus: Are you going to be okay?
Erza: I'll be fine.
Marcus: You look pale. You used up to much magic. Should have listened to Gray and not been so stubborn. At least you let me drive the rest of the way but by then it was to late. The damage was already done.
Erza: Yes. You are right.
Marcus: Me and Lucy will go after the one who escaped you rest up here.
Erza: Before you go, you said you had something you needed to tell both me and Lucy?
Marcus: I did. We'll get to that after this mission is over. What I have to tell you Erza I hope you'll hear me out calmly.
Erza: What is it about?
Marcus: Later.
Erza: *sigh* fine. You win.
Marcus: Lucy, let's go.
Lucy: R-right.
Outside the station a crowd had formed and the workers were trying to calm them down but they weren't having any luck. Erza then came outside and grabbed a megaphone from one of the workers hands and spoke into it.
Erza: Anyone who values their lives will get as far away from this place as possible!! Evil wizards have made this station their base! And they have in their hands a magic item that can kill every person in this area! Get as far away from here as you can!
Citizen 1: O-oh Shit!!
Citizen 2: Let's get outta here!!
Worker 1: Hey you! Why did you say that!? Are you trying to create a stampede!?
Erza: It's better that than see every singe one of them die. You should know that everything that I just spoke was the utter truth. We are going to do everything we possibly can to put a stop to this. However, there's always a chance that we fail and we die as well. So for your own safety get out of here and don't look back.
Worker 1: What!?
Worker 2: Aaaaaah!!
Erza's thoughts: Lullaby...A forbidden magic that kills everyone who hears it's music. And Erigor is plotting to commit mass murder using it. However if no one is left to hear it what reason would he have to use it? I wonder what will their next move be?
Erza then noticed something that shocked her.
Erza: Wh-what is this!? Th-this is wrapping the entire station in wind!!!
Erigor: Oh? What is a little fly like you doing outside? I get it now. You're the one who got the worms to run away.
Erza: Erigor!! You made this massive wind barrier!?
Erigor: I've always wanted to have a round with you. Too bad. I've got no time to waste on you. So get back inside the barrier and wait for me! My queen of fairies!!
Using his wind magic Erigor pushed Erza back into the wind barrier so now she was trapped inside along with everyone else.
Erza: Erigor!!
Erza tried to punch the barrier but doing so produced multiple slashes on her arm.
Erza: Damn!
Erigor: You might as well give up. The magic wind barrier won't let anyone outside. If you try to get out from the inside it will tear your body to pieces.
Erza: What's the meaning of this!?
Erigor: It isn't really a bird in a cage, so let's call it a fairy in a trap. It's a bit big for a couple of fairies but who cares about that when none of you will be able to stop me!! You shits have taken to much of my time as it is. So I'll be excusing myself now.
Erigor then flew away from Erza and too his destination.
Erza: Where are you going!? Erigor! We aren't finished talking!! What the hell is going on here!? Wasn't the station supposed to be your target!? Damn! I just hope the others are okay.
With Lucy and Marcus...
Marcus: Well it seems that we can't go outside. We're trapped in here.
Lucy: It looks like a wind barrier.
Marcus: That's probably what it is. I'd say the only way we can get out is if someone in here is able to dispel magic.
Lucy: Can't you do that?
Marcus: Asking because I have space magic?
Lucy: Yeah.
Marcus: Of something of this magnitude, no. If it was smaller I could try but even if I could I would only be able to get one person out. For me dispelling magic is not something that easy to do. Time magic, I can use on a pretty big scale but only in desperate situations. Space magic, I can use but it's not the type of space magic your thinking of.
Lucy: So you can't manipulate space to your will?
Marcus: Yes and no. I can manipulate the space around me, but around others no. I could probably lean a spell that could do that, but that would take years of training. How do you think I got behind you so fast?
Lucy: You ran really fast?
Marcus: No. I teleported to right behind you. However, using teleportation is risky. One wrong move and I'm dead.
Lucy: What about time magic?
Marcus: That's pretty self explanatory don't you think?
Lucy: So you mean-
Marcus: If your going to ask if I can see into the future or past, the answer is yes but only to a certain amount. Also just between you and me I can bring dead people back to life but it comes at a cost.
Lucy: So for space magic all you can do is teleport?
Marcus: No. I have some offensive attacks as well.
Lucy: Like what?
Marcus: The black flames that you see me fight with is one of those offensive attacks. Since I'm a dragon slayer I have some attacks similar to Natsu's attacks. Some of those are my spatial breath attack, my black flames that you see me use.
Lucy: What about your white flames?
Marcus: Those are just white flames there's nothing special about them. Well maybe except for the fact that they are related to time.
Lucy: Huh!?
Marcus: That's a story for another time.
Lucy: When we went to that mountain when I first got here, I swear I saw you reflect that creatures punch, and shoot multiple white beams from your finger tips.
Marcus: Ah. Those are also spacial attacks. The multiple white beams is what I like to call scatter shot. For the reflection, what I did is I essentially created an invisible mirror that can reflect any attacks coming my way and send them back to the original owner only much stronger.
Lucy: Your swords on your back could your store those in an alternate dimension like Erza does? And can you use them in your attacks?
Marcus: Only one of them. As for storing them like what Erza does, no unfortunately I can't. Sometimes I'll give her my swords or sometimes I'll give them to levy.
Lucy: Levy? Why her?
Marcus: I have my reasons.
Lucy: Okay one last question.
Marcus: Shoot.
Lucy: Overall what type of magic would you say is your strongest?
Marcus: That's a good question. With time I can use it on a much larger scale than I can space, but I can only use it in desperate situations. For bringing people back to life for instance, one person received equals one year of my life taken away.
Lucy: I see so the larger amount of dead revived the larger amount of years you get taken away.
Marcus: Correct.
Gray: Hey you two!!
Marcus: Gray what's up? You look pale.
Gray: We have a serious problem!
Marcus: Well spit it out already.
Gray: I know where their real target is. It's where all the guild masters are having their meeting!!
Marcus: Shit! Alright Lucy let's go find Erza and Natsu!
Erza: No need I'm already here.
Marcus: Erza! I'm guessing you heard what Gray told us?
Erza: Yes I heard.
Marcus: If I remember correctly there was a member in their guild named Kageyama. He broke the words to lullaby all on his own.
Gray: Could he be a dispeller?! If he is he can dispel the wind wall!
Lucy: Where would he be though?
Marcus: He said he had a score to settle with Natsu. We find Natsu we find Kageyama.
Before the four of them even started moving they heard a loud crash followed by a blood curdling scream.
Gray: That's has to be where Natsu is!
Erza: Let's go!
The four of them ran down the hallway that they were standing in. Once they came to the end of it they found a beat up Kageyama and a victorious Natsu.
Erza: Natsu don't do anything else to him! We need him alive!
Natsu: Huh? What, why?
Marcus: There's a massive wind barrier around the station. We think he's the only one here who can get rid of it.
Erza: Step aside Natsu. Leave the rest to me.
Erza then pulled out her sword from her dimension and shoved Kageyama against the wall.
Erza: You will dispel the wind wall, and you will do it without making any complaints. Whenever you make your first complaint is the same time I start cutting your flesh.
Natsu: Hey, he's all broken up! I know we need him and all but this is going to far!
Marcus: She's like that because their target is the guild masters.
Natsu: What!?
Erza: Say you understand!!
Kageyama was about to say that he understood when suddenly he coughed up a massive amount of blood.
Erza: What!?
Lucy: Natsu-!
Natsu: Hey I beat him but I didn't beat him that hard!!
When Kageyama fell to the ground everyone was shocked to see a dagger was plunged into his back by one of his own guild-mates.
Gray: Kage!!
Erza: Damnit! He was our only way out!!
Erza: Kageyama!! Hang in there!! We need your powers!!
Natsu: Hey!
Marcus: Damn. I don't believe this.
Natsu: W-wait a minute...wasn't he one of you guys!? He was in your guild!! He was supposed to be one of you!!
Erza: Your the only one who can dispel the wind barrier! You can not die here!!
Natsu using his fire dragon fist punched the wall that the guild member was fleeing into. This action knocked the member out cold.
Natsu: Is this the type of guild your in!?
Marcus: Erza I know that we need him alive but he isn't conscious right now. All your yelling for him to not die and wake up will be in vain unless we get him some medical treatment or he certainly will die and so will the guild masters.
Erza: Tch! What do we do now? Brute force won't work, Kageyama's out cold, so how are we getting out of here?
Natsu: I've got it!
Gray: What!?
Natsu: The way we're getting out is with Lucy more specifically her celestial spirits.
Lucy: Huh?
Natsu: I was able to go from one place to another through the Celestial spirt world, right?
Lucy: Yeah, but normal humans will die if they go in there. They would suffocate. Besides, the gate only opens in the place where a Celestial wizard is. In other words if you want to get out of here through the Celestial spirit world at the very least we'd need a Celestial wizard outside.
Natsu: Cut the long explanation and do it already!
Lucy: I'm telling you that it can't be done it's impossible! Another thing humans going into the Celestial spirit world would be a breach in contract. However, back then it was Everlue's key and not mine so we were lucky.
Happy: Everlue's key? Ahhhhh!!!! Lucy I just remembered!
Lucy: Wh-what?
Happy: Something I was trying to remember when we came to your place.
Happy then took off his little backpack and pulled something out of it.
Happy: This!
Lucy: Isn't that, the key to Virgo!? You shouldn't have that! It's wrong to just grab and-
Happy: No! Virgo herself wanted me to give this to you.
Lucy: Ehh!?
Erza: What are they talking about Marcus?
Marcus: Don't look at me Erza. This is something that happened on Lucy's first mission at the Everlue mansion.
Erza: I see. You didn't go?
Marcus: No. But I did warn Natsu that you were on your way back when they were on their way back themselves.
Natsu: Virgo...you mean that gorilla of a maid?
Happy: She said that the contract was broken the minute Everlue was arrested. She said that this time she wanted to create a contract with you Lucy!
Lucy: That really is nice to hear, but we shouldn't be talking about it right now. We have to think of a way to get out of here.
Happy: But-
Lucy: Shut up! Cats are supposed to meow not speak human talk!!
Happy: Virgo was able to dig beneath the ground. I thought that she'd be able to help us get out under the wind wall.
Erza: What!?
Gray: Is that true!?
Marcus: Lucy how'd you forget something like that!?
Lucy: Heheh...You can be useful at times, Happy!! Honestly why didn't you say that in the first place!?
Happy: Because you were pulling on my cheeks.
Erza: Hand it over!!
Lucy: I..the one who connects the path of the Celestial Spirit world with our own, command you who I call to pass through your gate. Open! Door of the virgin maiden Virgo!
Virgo: Mistress, you called?
Lucy: Huh!?
Virgo: Hmm?
Natsu: Woah Virgo, you've lost weight!
Virgo: Please forgive my past actions.
Lucy: Lost weight!? She's a completely different person!! U-um Virgo, that look of yours...
Virgo: I am the loyal servant of my master or mistress. I will take the form that my master or mistress wishes and faithfully do my work.
Natsu: Your last master was a more skilled and higher placed Wizard.
Lucy: Keep the side comments to yourself!!
Gray: Hmm? She's pretty cute. Not my type though.
Erza: You have a type Gray?
Gray: Yeah.
Erza: Interesting I never pegged you for a lover of romance.
Lucy: So listen up Virgo, we're in a hurry! Can we save the making of the contract for later?
Virgo: As you wish mistress.
Lucy: Let's not use mistress okay?
Virgo then saw Lucy's only weapon which happened to be a whip which was strapped to one of her belt loops and decided on another name.
Virgo: Very well, dominatrix.
Lucy: Not that either!!
Virgo: Then princess.
Lucy: That's about right.
Gray: What's right about that!? Never mind hurry up you two!! We're wasting daylight here!
Virgo: I shall begin then.
Virgo using her magic started digging a tunnel under the wind barrier and all the way to the outside.
Marcus: Holy- She went underground!
Gray: Nice! Now we can use that tunnel to get out of here.
Marcus: Natsu why are you picking up Kageyama? We don't need him anymore. Just leave him here.
Natsu: It would leave a bad taste in my mouth if he died here after fighting me.
After using the tunnel that Virgo had dug for them everyone was finally out of the station.
Natsu: We're out!
Erza: We may be out but this wind is still very strong! Let's keep moving!
Virgo: Princess the others may see your panties!
Lucy: Cover up your own!
Kageyama: You're too late. There's no way you'll be able to catch up to him now. We...we've won.
Erza: Hey, anyone see where Natsu and happy went?
Marcus: I can think of one place.
Erza: Where's that!?
Marcus: To stop Erigor.
Erza had found another magic mobile and had gotten everyone inside. She was now driving it and on her way to catch up with Natsu.
Lucy: This isn't the same magic mobile that we rented is it?
Gray: Eisenwald seem to pay a lot of attention to details, and one of them was completely destroying the car that we came here in.
Lucy: So we have to pay compensation huh?
Kageyama: Heh. So you went and stole another car huh? Some righteous fairies you turned out to be.
Lucy: We only borrowed it! Well according to Erza that is.
Kageyama: S-so why did you bring me along?
Lucy: What did you expect? There was no one left in town so we're bringing you to a doctor in clover. You should be thanking us.
Kageyama: No I'm asking why you saved me!! I'm the enemy!
Marcus: Honestly Kageyama, I'm wondering that myself. I personally would have just left you there to die, but apparently my friend Natsu has a heart of gold and couldn't stand to see you die after fighting him.
Kageyama: Oh I get it. I'm being held hostage to be used as a bargaining chip in your negotiations with Erigor. It won't work. The man is completely cold blooded. He won't trade me for anything.
Lucy: Oh man do you have to be so depressing?
Marcus: You wanna die that badly? I can speed up the process if you want. Which do you prefer quick and painless or slow and painful?
Lucy: Marcus!
Marcus: I don't like you but I can give you this little thing of advise. Killing others and getting killed yourself isn't the only way to settle things. Sometimes it pays to think about the future.
Because Erza was so drained in magic she was not able to drive properly and was constantly swerving. This caused Lucy to fall back and plant her butt right into Kageyama's face.
Gray: Erza!
Erza: Forgive me. I'll be alright.
Erza's thoughts: I can barley keep my eyes open. I used way to much magic power
Kageyama: Can't you go on a diet and slim down on that huge butt of yours.
Lucy: Whaaa!? That's sexual harassment! Marcus kill him.
Marcus: I just gave him a speech about how killing isn't the only way of solving things. Don't make it worthless.
Erza's thoughts: Natsu stop Erigor where he is...just long enough for me to get us there! If you don't stop him all the guild masters in the entire region will be dead!
Kageyama: Your little matchstick friend is already dead.
Lucy: Why do you say that?
Kageyama: Heh, Heh.
Lucy: Hey, I asked you a question. Now, why did you say that Natsu is already dead
Kageyama: There's no fire magic in this world that can break through Erigor's storm mail. He doesn't stand a chance.
Lucy: That's where your wrong. When it comes to Natsu he'll find a way to beat his opponent no matter how tough they are.
Kageyama: You seem pretty confident. You also seem pretty new.
Lucy: Your right about both. I do have confidence in Natsu and I am pretty new to fairy tail.
Kageyama: If your so new how can you have so much confidence in a man you barley know?
Lucy: That's something a dark guild wizard just wouldn't understand.
Kageyama: Tch.
Marcus: Nice one Lucy.
Gray: Erza! I think I see Natsu up ahead!
Erza: Yes, I see him too.
Lucy: Natsu!!
Natsu: Oh! You guys are late. He's already beaten.
Happy: Aye!
Kageyama: I-Impossible!!
Lucy: Like I said confidence.
Gray: If you had that much trouble with him then fairy tail's rep would be falling right now.
Natsu: Trouble? I didn't have any trouble. He was definitely a challenge though. Right happy?
Happy: There's a thin line between trouble and challenge and you were on it.
Gray: Look at you! Half nude except for that scarf of yours! Like some type of exhibitionist!
Natsu: Like you have any room to talk Gray! You're constantly stripping 24/7! You're like a male stripper but a free one!
Marcus: Nice work Natsu. With Erigor immobilized this keeps the guild masters out of danger. Clover isn't that far at all. We should head to the masters meeting and report what happened today. We should also ask the masters if they know how to dispose of the flute.
While everyone was talking amongst themselves Kageyama grabbed lullaby and got into the magic mobile and started to drive the rest of the way to clover.
Lucy: What the!?
Erza: Kage!
Kageyama: You flies let your guard down! You completely forgot about me! Now I have the flute! I'll make sure those old geezers hear this song even if it's the last thing I do!!
Natsu: That jerk!! What was that for!? We saved your life!!
Erza: After him!!
