Chapter 30

Back with Elfman

"BRING ON IT," Elfman shouted, transforming into his Weretiger soul. Charging the fifty guards head on; he smashed, slashed, and slammed his way to Evergreen. "COME ON IS THAT ALL YOU GOT," he questioned, defeating the last guard. Focusing on Evergreen, he ordered, "Come on Ever, let's go home."

"This is my home," Evergreen replied as she snapped her fingers, "and you'd better be prepared cause her comes my advanced guards."

"How advanced can they b-," Elfman managed to say before one of the advanced guards sent him flying to into the wall.

"Leave our Queen alone," said the advanced guard who sent Elfman into the wall.

"Bahahahaha! Can't believe you guys lost to a weakling like this," the other advanced guard mocked as he stood by the other. "Dead or alive my Queen," he asked, glancing back at Evergreen.

"Dead," she replied with a smirk.

"Gotcha."

Okay...I guess they're that advanced..., Elfman thought, getting to his feet. I took out fifty of them. These two can't be that ha-What the hell, he paused as he saw the advanced guards. "They look like Freed and Bickslow, but evilier," he commented as he steadied himself. No wonder he packed a punch...

Taking out his glaive, the First Advanced Guard pointed it towards Elfman then said, "My name is Roman and I shall permanently make sure you do not disturb out Queen anymore."

Taking out twin axes, the Second Advanced Guard spun them then said, "Name's Butch and I'm gonna enjoy caving your skull in."

"Like hell I'd lose to you two," Elfman snapped as he transformed into his Beast Soul. Making a challenging gesture, he mocked, "Now come and get me."

"Heh if you say so," Butch responded as he charged while spinning his axes.

"Come and get m-," Elfman paused as he was taken by surprise from Butch flinging one of his axes at him. He can use that as a range weapon, Elfman thought, blocking the attack. "Sh*," he commented as Butch swung for his legs. Leaping over, Elfman grabbed Butch then threw him to a wall. "Close one..."

"Do not forget about me," Roman shouted, taking a swing at Elfman.

Blocking the attack, Elfman reached in for a full body grab, but was hit in the back from another one of Butch's axe throw. "Damnit," he flinched as he pulled the axe out then threw it to the side. Focusing back on Roman, he swiped then punched, but to no avail. Damn these two are annoying

"You good Butch," Roman asked as he helped up his comrade.

"Yeah. This guy is a lot of fun," Butch replied as he summoned two more axes.

Feeling liquid dripping from his back, Elfman thought, Sh*t I'm bleeding...Gotta make this quick or else I'm done for. "COME ON is that all you got," Elfman taunted the two guards.

"He's getting cocky," Butch angrily commented as he tightened his grip.

"Shall we then," Roman replied as he stepped forward.

"Oh we're gonna do the thing," Butch asked as Roman nodded in reply. "Sweet let's do this."

"What the hell are they doing," Elfman questioned as he witnessed the two perform a spell. Suddenly a bright light flashed causing Elfman to cover his eyes. Seconds later, he saw a figure standing within the smoke. "Oi what the hell did you two do," he asked in confusion.

"We became whole," the being answered as he took out twin Glaives.

As the smoke cleared, Elfman got a clear picture of what happened to his opponents. "They-they fused into one person," he questioned at the bizarre sight.

"Time to learn your place," the fused Butch and Roman announced as the charged while spinning their glaives.

"Fused are not, one thing is certain," Elfman replied as he prepared himself, "you are one ugly son of a b*tch." Swapping to his Lizardman, Elfman rolled up in a ball then charged the two.

"We are the Advanced Guard," the fused being snapped as he threw one glaive at Elfman then summoned another.

Taking the hit, Elfman didn't stop then increased his acceleration. Argh...that packed a punch, even in this form..., he thought as he saw the glaive land. Can't take another one or I'm done, he continued as he dodged more of their thrown glaives. Getting closer, Elfman aimed for their legs, but the fused being swiped low causing him to leap.

Their attack worked in his favor as he slammed into their face, grinding it in then launching into the air. Seeing the being collapse, Elfman swapped to his Iron Bull Arm then shouted, "AND THIS IS HOW TO BE A REAL MAN!" Quickly descending, he slammed his fist into their face, causing the two to separate. "Anymore 'Advanced' guards," he mocked as he stood over the defeated Roman and Butch.

"Fine fine, it seems that you have proven yourself worthy," Evergreen announced as she rose from her seat then began descending the stairs.

Waiting for her to reach the bottom, Elfman asked, "So do you remember who I am?"

"Why of course I do," Evergreen answered as she pulled him close then stared seductively at him.

"E-E-Ever," Elfman uttered in surprise. "We shouldn't, we have to go help the others," he explained.

"Oh we'll be helping the others," Evergreen replied as she channeled her spell.

"Ever? What are you d-," Elfman managed to say before Evergreen used her Stone Eyes to solidify him.

"Helping them die," Evergreen commented.

"Ah in the end, the buffoon couldn't complete his challenge," the Harem King announced as he appeared. "Oh well that's too bad, but I guess he loved you so much that only you could hurt him like this," he commented as he looked at Evergreen. Snapping his fingers, he ordered Evergreen, "When you reach the bottom you will bound yourself then return him to normal."

"Yes my King," Evergreen answered as the floor descended with her and Elfman.

Watching them disappear, the Harem King commented, "Slight deviation in the show, but it must go on."

Back with Natsu

"N-Natsu," Lisanna questioned as she opened her eyes.

"Lisanna, hang on I'll get you out of there," Natsu replied as he struggled to break free.

"Ugh...," Lucy groaned as she opened her eyes,"wh-where am I?"

"Lucy," Natsu shouted, "glad you're awake, hang on I think I'm almost free." Suddenly an electrical shock was sent coursing through his body.

"NATSU," the two girls screamed as they watched his body jerk rapidly.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you," the Harem King announced as Natsu's punishment stopped.

"D-Damn you," Natsu uttered as he recovered.

"If you continue to do that then you'll be dead before the show even starts," the Harem King commented.

"Hah! That didn't even hurt," Natsu gloated as he began his second attempt. A second jolt of electricity was administered, but Natsu clenched his teeth then with a smirk he said, "Laxus' lightning hurts more than this!"

"Ooohhh, then let's amp it up," the Harem King replied as he increased the voltage. Seeing Natsu still grinning as he attempted to break free, he added, "Oh don't worry it's not only your punishment that I'm adding to." Snapping his fingers, several black figures appeared on stage.

"H-H-HEY WH-WHAT AR-ARE THE-THEY DOING," Natsu shouted through the electrical pain as the black figures surrounded Lisanna and Lucy.

"Oh I forgot to tell you, but your challenge wasn't to break free from the binds, but to see how long you'd last when this happens," the Harem King announced as he snapped his fingers again.

"STOP! G-GET AWAY FROM ME," Lissana screamed as one figure ripped open her shirt, revealing her breasts. "NATSU DON'T LOOK," she shrieked.

"NO NO NO PL-PLEASE DON'T," Lucy screamed as another figure did the same. "Y-you're s-so dead when Natsu breaks out," she said as she glared at the faceless figure.

"ST-STOP THEM," Natsu screamed as he continued his attempt.

"But it's just getting good," the Harem King commented as he snapped again.

"WH-WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? NO DON'T GO THERE! PLE-," Lisanna screamed as another one ripped her jeans apart, revealing her vagina. "NNNNOOOOO!"

"GET AWAY FROM THERE," Lucy screamed as she attempted to kick the one reaching for her skirt. "I SAID STOP! NO," she screamed as the figure ripped her skirt off, also revealing her vagina.

"Y-YOU BA-BASTARD," Natsu screamed as he started jerking from his seat. "I'LL KILL YOU!"

"You're not enjoying this," the Harem King sarcastically asked. "I thought you would, and I'm only doing this to see who you'd choose to save," he explained as he snapped his fingers again.

Suddenly all the figures grew penises then prepared to ravage Lucy and Lisanna. "NO NO NO PL-PLEASE DO-DON'T PLEASE I BEG OF YOU," Lisanna screamed as one their penises made it's way to her. Seeing it enter, she clenched her teeth then silently screamed as she was penetrated. "NATSU HELP ME!"

"STOP STOP STOP STOP," Lucy screamed as she struggled to break free. "NO PLEASE DON'T! NNNNOOOO," she shrieked as she was also penetrated.

"SSSSSSTTTTTOOOOOOOPPPPPPPP TTTTTHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIISSSSSS," Natsu screamed as he watched the black figures thrusting into the two girls.

"Come on Natsu, all you have to do is choose," the Harem King explained as he appeared next to him. "It isn't so hard," he mocked as he snapped his fingers again. The black figures then forced the two girls to jack off their penises as the they were continuously thrusted.

"NA-NGHG-NATSU HELP," Lisanna shrieked.

"PLEASE MAK-NGH-MAKE THEM STOP! PLE-MMMPH," Lucy managed to say before a penis was shoved in her mouth.

"I AM GOING TO F*CKING KILL YOU," Natsu screamed as he fought the pain. "AND I'M GOING TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE REDUCED TO ASHES!"

"I'd like to see you try," the Harem King announced. He watched as Natsu screamed for his death while the girls pleaded for it to stop. The nightmare ended when the two girls passed out and Natsu stopped screaming and struggling. Grabbing Natsu's face, the Harem King asked, "Hey are you alive?" Hearing him mumble something, the Harem King leaned in.

"M-make it-make it-stop...p-please...stop-hu-hurting the-them...p-please stop," Natsu uttered from defeat.

Staring into his eyes, the Harem King could tell that he successfully broke him. "AHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH," he cackled, "the Great Natsu Dragneel of Fairy Tail has been broken!" Collecting himself, he snapped his fingers and the Fairy Tail members descended where the others went. "I love my job," he commented.

Back with Gajeel

"THIS GAME IS BULLCRAP," Gajeel shouted as he looked at the score board. "I DON'T EVEN KNOW HALF THE THINGS YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT," he shouted as all the questions he had to answered were about Levy.

"Ooohhh looks like you're stalker isn't really good at stalking," the Harem King taunted.

"SHUT UP," Gajeel shouted.

"Well well well, we're heading into the final round," the Harem King announced as he appeared by Levy. "So Ms. McGarden how do you think this last round will go," he asked as he leaned the mic towards Levy.

"I knew I would be winning, cause that man is creepy and needs to get a life," Levy answered, glaring at Gajeel.

"Creepy," Gajeel questioned. "Oi don't make me go over there," he threatened, pointing at Levy.

"Now now, settle down," the Harem King commented. "Alright, our final question will go to Gajeel," he added.

"Bring it," Gajeel gloated.

"And the question is," the Harem King announced as he took out a card, "ooohhh, 'Why did Gajeel fall in love with Levy'?"

Stunned by the question, Gajeel coughed then asked, "IS THAT REALLY THE QUESTION?!"

"Yes."

"I don't love her," Gajeel answered.

"Is that your final answer," the Harem King asked. Seeing Gajeel not answer, he appeared next to him then whispered, "Here's a hint: go with this and you both die."

"Why you f-"

"Ssshhh, now answer the question truthfully," the Harem King said as he pressed his finger against Gajeel's lips. Appearing back on the host's platform he announced, "So Mr. Redfox is that your final answer?"

God f*cking damnit...I wanted to surprise her when she got back, but I guess if it's to save her life then I have no choice, Gajeel thought as he opened his mouth. "I fell in love with Levy for multiple reasons," he began as an imaginary crowd gasped, "she made me realize that there is something in this world worth fighting for. And she made realize there is a future for me if I'm with her. She's tough, smart, stubborn, but I love her anyway..." As the imaginary crowd gave awed, Gajeel looked at Levy then said, "Levy McGarden...I love you."

Suddenly Levy collapsed. "LEVY," Gajeel shouted as he leaped onto her platform. Holding her in his arms, he asked, "Levy? Are you okay?"

"D-did y-you really mean that," Levy mumbled as she barely opened her eyes.

"Y-yeah...yeah I did," Gajeel answered as he hugged her. "I love you."

"I'm gl-glad...," Levy replied as she stroked his cheek. "I-I love you to-"

"AND THAT'S ALL FOLKS," the Harem King interrupted as he snapped his fingers. "Let's all give the Lovers a warm goodbye as they descended into darkness," he added as the platform Levy and Gajeel were on turned into a cage.

"YOU BASTARD," Gajeel shouted. "I BEAT YOUR STUPID GAME! YOU CAN'T DO TH-", he managed to shout before disappearing.

"Four out of six is still good," the Harem King commented.

Back with Felix

What Felix saw before him was unimaginable; something out of a perverted horror film. Exiting the door then slamming it shut, Felix tried to recollect himself. Jesus f*cking Christ...those girls...they were being...being assaulted by tentacles..., he thought as he steadied his breath.

"Told ya not to look in there," the Harem King taunted.

"You shut the f*ck up you sick bastard," Felix snapped at him. Are the remaining girls in there? Cana, Laki, Erza, Wendy, Kinana and Carla...Oh god..., he thought as he tried to prevent the image of them being penetrated by tentacles form in his mind.

"Oh to let you know, your pink haired friend and muscular buffoon failed their challenge," the Harem King announced.

"What," Felix questioned from the news. Natsu and Elfman failed? Does that mean? Lucy...Oh god please don't be dead...please... "A-are they dead," he asked.

"Clear this dungeon and you'll find out," the Harem King answered.

Clearing his mind, Felix focused on the task at hand then kicked open the door. "HANG ON EVERYONE," he shouted as he activated his Ascenion Mode then summoned his Ice's God Gatling Gun, "I'll get you out!" Squeezing the trigger, he began rapidly firing ice shards. After several minutes of shredding every tentacle in sight, Felix returned to normal then summoned his Claymore in case there were more enemies.

Spotting the remaining girls of Fairy Tail, Felix quickly and awkwardly clothed them then helped them up. "Are you okay," he asked, but none answered. Sh*t...they might be broken..., he thought as he saw no life in their eyes, Can't imagine how long they were here...

Punching the wall, he thought, Maybe if I was faster...maybe if I didn't complain at the beginning...GOD DAMNIT! Recollecting himself, Felix began planning on how to escape and save the others. "Damn...there is no way. If I run off to help, who knows what will happen," he commented as he began pacing back and forth. "But if I wait here then something bad might happen to the others..."

"Oh don't worry," the Harem King chimed in as he appeared. "The only two who failed were the ones I mentioned."

"YOU," Felix shouted as he charged him with his Claymore.

"Ah don't be like that," the Harem King responded as he effortlessly dodged Felix. "Listen I have a proportion," he announced as he continued to dodge Felix's attack.

"Like I said I'm not going to betray my friends," Felix replied as he continued his attack.

"I have a di-okay someone can seriously get hurt from you swinging that around," the Harem King commented, knocking Felix's Claymore away and into a wall.

Damn he's strong..., Felix thought as he stepped back. "Fine I guess I have no choice, but to listen."

"Good. So you love Lucy right," the Harem King asked, "Like you really love her. To the point you'd do anything for her?"

"Why?"

"Just answer the question."

"Y-Yeah..."

"Gggooooddd...Now here is my deal. I'll erase her memory of all the horrible things I did to her, IF you let the others stay with me to be my puppets."

"You really think I'd do that?"

"I think you would if I showed you this," the Harem King answered, snapping his fingers.

A Lacrima appeared in front of Felix and played what happened during Natsu's challenge. "YOU F*CKING BASTARD," Felix screamed as he charged him, but were restrained by binds. "F*CK YOU AND YOUR DEAL!"

"Are you sure? Cause she'll have to live the rest of her life with that memory," the Harem King mentioned. "You have a chance to wipe that memory AND be with her forever."

"F*CK YOU," Felix screamed as he struggled to break free. Spitting in the Harem King's face, he added, "YOU'RE A SICK F*CKING BASTARD AND I'M GONNA MAKE SURE TO BURY IN SO DEEP IN THE ICE NO ONE WILL BE ABLE TO FIND YOU!"

"Hmm...it seems I've lost you," the Harem King responded, wiping the spit from his face. "Fine then," he commented, knocking out Felix, "I have one other way to make you my puppet."

An unknown amount of time passed before Felix finally regained consciousness. "Damn...my-my head hurts...," he groaned as he slowly opened his eyes. Scanning the room he spotted Natsu next to him. "Natsu," he called out as he started to move, but realized he was bounded. "Damnit, hey Natsu! Can you hear me," he called out again. Seeing Natsu's lips move, but not hearing anything, Felix called out one more time, "Natsu..."

"Oh don't worry about him," the Harem King chimed in as he appeared. "He's a bit 'broken' right now so you won't be getting much out of him," he added.

"YOU! WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM," Felix screamed as he jerked around.

Leaning in, the Harem King grabbed Natsu by the chin then stared into his broken eyes. Chuckling, he answered, "I showed him that no matter how strong you are, how much you struggle, and how much you fight. You can't always save the ones you love." Snapping his fingers, a spotlight appeared with Lucy in it. "And now I'm going to teach her something," he taunted as he approached Lucy.

"STAY AWAY FROM HER," Felix screamed.

"Don't worry, this lesson is gonna hurt you more than it's gonna hurt her," the Harem King replied as he woke up Lucy.

"Huh...wh-where am I...," Lucy mumbled as she opened her eyes. "OH GOD PLEASE DON'T LET THEM TOUCH ME! PLEASE," Lucy shrieked as she began to struggle.

"Hush now it's okay, the bad men can't hurt you anymore," the Harem King comforted her. Pointing to Felix and Natsu, he asked, "Do you know those two over there."

Spotting Felix, Lucy shouted, "FELIX! NATSU!"

"LUCY! WHATEVER YOU DO DON'T DO WHAT HE SAYS," Felix shouted back.

"Now now now, I'm not going to make her do something dangerous," the Harem King responded.

"LIAR," Felix shouted.

"My dear Lucy, what I'm about to ask you is to simply pick who do you really love," the Harem King explained.

"Wh-what," Lucy questioned.

"Who do you really love. It's such a simple thing to answer," the Harem King replied. Seeing her hesitate, he commented, "Okay this is taking too long." Snapping his fingers the lights came on, revealing the captured Fairies and many other women the Harem King had taken. "New rules: Choose the person you really love and the other dies. You have one minute, but if you haven't made a decision after that minute then everyone dies."

"HEY THAT'S NOT FAIR," Felix screamed.

"I didn't say I play fair," the Harem King gloated. "So Lucy, who is it gonna be," he asked as he began the timer," Clock's ticking..."

"I-...I-..I lov-," Lucy began to say as she took a step forward.

Noticing she took a step in his direction, Felix thought, Wait...no...sh-she doesn't...thi-this is a trap... "LUCY STOP," Felix screamed.

"Wh-what," Lucy questioned as she stopped from being startled.

"Oooh...this is interesting," the Harem King whispered.

"Listen Lucy...you're not yourself right now," Felix began to explain, "So I need you to really think about who you love."

Looking at Natsu, Lucy answered, "But he failed to protect me...he failed and I-I..."

"I know...I know," Felix responded, "but people fail all the time okay? I guess you guys aren't used to it yet since you never seem to fail...but this time we lost...we lost for real..." I gotta convince her to pick Natsu...I won't be able to live with myself knowing that Lucy will only love me cause of what happened her...that ain't right..., he thought as he began to speak again. "BUT I know you guys will recover...and I know you guys will come back stronger..."

"B-"

"NO BUTS! It's okay Lucy," Felix interrupted, "Please try to remember the memories with him...Remember why you fell in love with Natsu...," Felix explained as his own words pierced his heart. Seeing Lucy still hesitate, he screamed, "LOOK AT HIM LUCY! LOOK AT HIM! DON'T YOU WANT TO HELP HIM! HE'S BROKEN LUCY AND YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN FIX HIM!"

"Tick tock, tick tock," the Harem King chimed in as the counter reached thirty seconds. "Running out of time."

"LUCY PLEASE," Felix screamed.

"BUT YOU'LL DIE FELIX," Lucy screamed back.

"ONE OF US IS GOING TO DIE FROM YOU CHOICE AND I DON'T WANT YOU TO LIVE WITHOUT THE MAN YOU REALLY LOVE," Felix explained. "IF IT'S HIM I KNOW YOU'LL BE ALRIGHT...I know you'll be happy...," he added.

"Felix...," Lucy uttered as she spotted tears forming around his eyes.

"Ten seconds," the Harem King announced.

As the tears began to fall, Felix glanced at Lucy then said, "Lucy...please..."

"Nine."

"But Felix!"

"Eight."

"I'll be fine..."

"Seven."

"No you won't!"

"Six."

"Choose Natsu and save everyone..."

"Five."

"I-I can't do this!"

"Four."

"LUCY YOU HAVE TOO!"

"Three."

"I-I CAN'T!"

"Two."

"LUCY!"

"One."

Hesitating, Lucy glanced at Felix's pleading eyes. She spotted Felix's lips moving, but couldn't hear what he was saying; she already knew. Felix...I-I'm so sorry..., she thought as she shouted. "I LOVE NATSU DRAGNEEL!"

Snapping his fingers, the Harem King stopped the timer then said, "Oh that was fun to watch." Walking over to Felix, he leaned in and said, "And I never thought you would do that. Such a noble sacrifice." Looking over to Natsu and Lucy, he could she that she was crying and hugging the broken Natsu. "Hey why the long face, you finally confessed your love to him," he commented. "I thought you'd be happy."

"SHUT UP AND GO AWAY," Lucy screamed.

"Oh my, I know when I'm not wanted," the Harem King responded as he took a step back. "Anyway, like I said, the person you do not choose dies," he explained as he prepared to snap his fingers.

"WAIT WAIT WAIT," Lucy screamed as she stood up. "Please...don't...," Lucy began to plead, "please...I beg you..."

"Lucy don't...," Felix uttered as he accepted his fate.

"Sorry, but rules are the rules," the Harem King answered as he snapped his fingers.

"FELIX," Lucy screamed as she took a step forward, but was stopped by an invisible wall. "PLEASE PLEASE DON'T DO IT!"

"Lucy...," Felix said as he looked at her, "it's okay...I'm just sorry I can't keep my promise now..."

"Felix...," Lucy uttered as she fell to her knees. "Please...please do-" Lucy managed to say before Felix suddenly began jerking. "FELIX," she shrieked as she watched him die, "NO NO NO NO! PLEASE STOP PLEASE!"

"Time to shut up," the Harem King announced as he snapped his fingers, knocking out Lucy. Teleporting everyone outside, he commented, "I've had my fun, but it is time to return home and with my puppet." Snapping his fingers again, Felix deeply inhaled then began coughing.

"W-what-what the hell...," Felix groaned as he steadied his breath. "Wh-where am I," he asked as he tried to regain his focus.

"Hello there, my name is Alptraum and I'm going to have a lot of fun with you," the Harem King re-introduced himself as he teleported away with Felix.

And with this chapter, we conclude the Harem King Arc. Sorry if this was too graphically sexual for any of you, but I wrote this to set up for the next arc. Haven't come up with a name yet, but you'll see it when I do.

Alptraum: Nightmare in German

Anyway, thanks for reading this chapter and I'll see you all in the next one! Again I apologize for the sexual content.
