From now on, I'm going to throw the readers into confusion. What is the truth, what is not? Different people see and interpret things differently from their own experience so do the characters of my story.
I have decided that I will revise the plot in S3 so the story will be deviated from the original with revision and extra scenes added. I have yet decided on the characters background back then but now I have all the characterisation to play around with. I'm revising Laxus character so I might be amending this chapter after completing Chapter 1.
I'm starting out with a special chapter. I hope to get Chapter 1 up soon.
Please read and review :).
Special Chapter 1: The Unknown Secret of Jellal
At this point in time, Jellal had become one with his double and was living as Mystogan of Fairy Tail.
Master Makarov got too worked up at his grandson, Laxus Dreyer's prank that he collapsed. He had not had his breakfast when he returned to the guild and was really pissed off.
More importantly, his carton of apples from Ms Porlyusica was stolen. The culprit had left a message for him. He did it in purpose so that Mystogan who preferred not to be involved in any event of the guild would participate in the festival he had specially organised.
The message written was as follows: "I know your secret. If you want to know what secret that is, please see me at Kardia Cathedral. – Laxus Dreyar"
Makarov's grandson, Laxus Dreyar was sitting in the church deep in thought. He did not expect to hear what had happened when he was away. He bet his fellow S Class mage who was the strongest mage in Fairy Tail, Gildarts would be shocked to hear that by the time he returned like he did. He could not accept this. Hence, he decided to take control of the guild so that incident like this would not happen again.
He just taught Gajeel a lesson a day before but decided to leave the vulnerable blue exceed alone. The masked mage was someone he needed to teach a lesson to especially. He was aware of his real identity who was supposed to be a level higher than an S Class mage. He hated the fact that his arrogance caused the death of his nakama, acting as though nothing had happened and actually hiding himself in Fairy Tail. Laxus wanted to find out between the mysterious mage and himself, who was stronger. This particluar mage had the right to take in disciples after all.
Laxus sensed his arrival at the door of the church. "I thought who it is. Isn't that our shy Mystogan? The apples in your possession are really sweet. Your love for apples is something. Why not quit becoming a mage and sell apples instead? Selling apples is much more befitting for you, Mr Apple. The apple is just as red as the hair of your beloved woman." He knew he would snap upon hearing him reciting his secret.
He was right. Mystogan was provoked. Mystogan could not afford to let the above said woman to hear about it. He went out with her initially as he took a liking to her hair colour and he eventually fell in love with her. He was unable to use his own magic as he might blow his cover. He needed to end this as soon as possible.
An explosion occurred when their attacks clashed. Tsuna and Erza who was in search of Laxus had noticed it.
"It's coming from Kardia Cathedral?" They exclaimed at their respective locations.
"Don't get so worked up in case you ended up like my old man. I'm not going to tell your wife about it. No, your ex-wife. " Laxus laughed after both their attacks was cancelled out. Mystogan was not too happy about it.
"LAXUS!" Two figures appeared at the door calling his names at once. They were Erza and Tsuna who came rushing there after they saw the explosion.
"Erza, you came." Tsuna exclaimed.
"So have you." Erza responded. Both of them turned towards Laxus and Mystogan's direction. Mystogan was caught off-guard when he saw Erza. He almost wanted to go into hiding and he recoiled unconsciously.
"An opening!" Laxus yelled and he sneaked an attack on Mystogan who was unable to react on time right on his face with his lightning tearing his mask into shred.
The smoke cleared and revealing the hair and the face of the most mysterious mage of Fairy Tail. He had the exact same face as Erza's ex-husband and Tsuna's Teacher, Jellal Fernandes.
"Oh… A familiar face. Just as what he told me. " Laxus commented sarcastically acting oblivious to the revelation of the identity of the masked mage.
"Teacher?" Tsuna managed to get his words out of his mouth. Erza was too stunned to say anything.
"You are really well and alive!" Tsuna exclaimed as Jellal turned his head away from them avoiding their gazes.
"Jellal… alive…" Tears welled up Erza's eyes at the sight of the man she was missing so much. Jellal stole a glance at her sadly. He did not know how he was going to talk his way out of this despite being a genius.
Suddenly, he sensed a dark presence who had been watching them from a distance. "Was he the one behind this?"
"I shall leave the rest to you." Jellal took this chance to escape to go after the source of the presence.
"Hey!" Tsuna cried out as he watched the cunning mage disappearing into the thin air leaving him and Erza to face Laxus.
A boy in black with black hair was watching them from a distance. Jellal was right. He was the one who tempted Laxus to come up with all these.
"I didn't expect to see a funny side of him who is known to be serious." The boy commented laughing bitterly to himself. He continued to watch on as Erza left to destroy the thunder palace Laxus had placed throughout Magnolia leaving Tsuna to take Laxus on sadly.
"I'm really glad to see both of you doing well." The boy recalled the Tower of Heaven incident six months ago. He had taken the fatal hit meant for Erza and Tsuna from Jellal's clone.
*Flashback*
"Erza!" A familiar voice was heard calling out to Erza. He heard someone banging on the surface of something. He was barely awake. He struggled to push himself up after coughing out some blood. His sight was too blurry to make out what was happening. He vaguely heard another familiar voice calling out for him.
"You can save them by accepting me once again. I will ensure you will get out of this alive if you agree. You want to live isn't it?" The boy shuddered. He knew this voice but he could not remember what that was. It was like a far and distant memory which was locked up somewhere. The boy thought he saw a hand coming out of from oblivion reaching out for him. "I want... to... live... I want... to see... Lucy... again... " He uttered as he took his hand desperately. The shadow smiled sinisterly.
The boy ended up plunging himself into the core of the Lacrima and thus Erza who was not a fitting vessel was rejected and ended up in the vortex where Tsuna managed to locate her.
*End Flashback*
He somehow managed to survive from the injuries but not in the way he would have expected. He ended up becoming the sacrifice to resurrect the most evil mage in existence, Zeref and awakened donning on appearance of a fragile young man with black hair that sticks upwards at the top. He was wearing robes with gold trimmings and an open collar, along with a large, flowing white toga draped around his main body and across his chest.
"Will you be able to destroy me?" The boy lifted his head up and wondered.
