Sorry for the wait, but on the brighter side I finally caught-up with the Fairy Tail manga, and will be writing another story. Should that one be after Tartorus arc or the beginning of the manga? Please select, since both the timelines will fit. There will be a pole going my profile. Please vote there or in your review. And thank you for all the support you guys showed me these past few chapters.
Disclaimer: unfortunately fairy tail is not mine and neither is this story.
"Who will go first I wonder?" a small girl said standing at the edge of the railing. The wind making her hairs blow.
"F-First Master, please be careful" the last part was squalled by the small giant, as the little girl turned around spinning. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was alright.
"So, who will be going first?" a smile came at the pink haired wizard's lips. He looked toward the lightning dragon slayer and his grin grew.
"Since Zen is here for only today let him participate" the voice sounded amused.
"No. I think Laxus should go. After all, I can't expose myself" the dark haired wizard said. The pink haired boy only looked at him for a movement then grinned.
"Alright. Laxus show them how Fairies do it" he grinned. The blond turned around to move but not before throwing a smile at his team's way.
"I should be going too" the dark haired wizard said as begin walking. Only a hesitant voice stopped him.
"Where are you going? What if you have a fight later?" Erza asked having separated herself from her group. "What if you have to fight later? I won't let you tarnish the name of Fairy Tail" she said but her voice in the end was a mere whisper, her whole body shaking. The dark wizard meanwhile had not even turned around, finally allowed her a look of his face, his eyes red.
"You can't even stop me if you want" he said and he left the shaking girl there. Finally she took a deep breath and stood up, 'just who was that? He had the initials of Fairy Tail, but why? I have never seen him before. I will ask master later' she thought and left to witness the first event.
Meanwhile the first event was already underway. Neither Laxus nor Rufus could be seen on the field.
"Man, what is Laxus doing? Why won't he attack?" the questions ranged into the mind of everyone in the guild, just the first guild master was unconcerned and of course the team mates of Laxus with the exception of Jellal.
"What is taking Laxus so long? It is not like him to sit back" he asked, but Natsu only grinned and surprisingly Gajeel was the one who answered him
"Oh well, he is working on a present" the iron slayer said, implement clear in his voice.
"A present? What kind?" asked the blue haired mage but the answer he got confused him more.
"The closer you get to something, the tougher it is to see it. I wonder how much truth these words carry." Natsu asked a lot of spherical blobs appeared round the whole city. All the mages who recognised it was horrified, remembering what it was has been used to do.
"T-These are-?" Lyon asked, still in the battle
"T-Thunder Palace" whispered Gray.
"Hmm. I wonder what is this that Fairy Tail has unleashed?" but the voice was ignored.
"Huh? What is this? No matter, I will just destroy it" Rufus said just as he fired his attack from the sky on every mage and even at the thunder palace. A huge dust cloud settled at the arena.
"L-Laxus, G-Gray. Wait the Thunder Palace is still there, it means-" Lucy asked, voice cracking and worry evident in her voice. Everyone was stunned, only Natsu, Gajeel and Mavis remained not worried much.
"Don't worry, Grey is tough. He can handle this. As for Laxus-" Natsu begun just as thunder palace activated and if possible they were stronger than before, the cloud also cleared and Laxus was standing in front of Rufus who was also hit
"H-how?" asked Rufus, disbelief shining in his eyes.
"I am a Lightning Dragon Slayer. Do you really thing Lightning will work on me?" he asked, just as the bell rang.
"What a battle. And the result for the round-"
At the very second a very dark magic wave swiped Natsu. He looked around him but it all looked normal. 'Maybe it was my imagination' he thought just as another swiped at him. He heard a click sound, as if someone unlocked something. 'Don't tell me the seal that was keeping E.N.D. in place is disappearing'
He looked in the corner to see the new guild. He felt something off about them.
"It's all right. You did well. You were supposed to lose anyway. Remember, only observe and look for him" the rushed words came in his ear.
"Hey Salamander, everything all right?" " Gajeel asked on seeing Natsu glare at the new guild.
"Yeah. Everything is alright. I just need to clear my head. Call me if my battle comes up" he asked as he left
"Where is flame brain going?" Grey asked.
"To clear his head apparently" Wendy commented, she looked worried as did Lucy.
"His head is already empty. What is there more to clean?" Grey asked just as the first battle was announced.
"You are first Lucy" Erza said, looking Lucy. "You have to win" and she looked ready to kill if she didn't.
Outside, Natsu was roaming around, when he was suddenly attacked.
"If you want to do something, do it yourself" the man commented and Natsu really looked at the man. His raven hairs and icy-sword was the only thing visible. "So you are the Phoenix. I wonder, can you control E.N.D?" He said voice full of wondering.
"Y-You smell just like him. Who are you?" asked the surprised dragon slayer.
"I am the demon slayer, Silver Fullbuster. And you are Natsu Dragneel, am I right? So I ask you can you control E.N.D?" just then the dark wave of magic commenced again.
"Looks like I will have to leave. Now is not the time. We will meet again, when the gates of Tartorus meet. But till then, try to live, Natsu" the man left the dragon slayer there lost in his thoughts. He came out but the night had already fallen
"I should go back" and he went to join his team
"He was just as you expected, but he had changed too. Too much like her mother" Silver whispered and the shadows grinned.
Phew. Done. Please read and review.
