I am starting to branch from the story line. Please review this chapter. I would like to know what all opf you think.

Prelude

Natsu finds himself standing alone against the evils of Acnologia and Zeref. The other members of Fairy Tail and Brandish were blown back by the force of Acnologia's landing. They recover only to find themselves half a mile away from Natsu and currently being surrounded by the forces of Alvarez.

Erza PoV

Damn. How did I not see that coming? Who knows how many of us might have died if Levy didn't set up a quick protection field. We ended up not being hit but the field was thrown so far that I can no longer help Natsu in his fight. Damn. I failed him again. Just like in the Tower of Heaven, I let my guard down and now Natsu has to fight an incredibly powerful enemy. This time however, there are two. I need to focus on getting back to Natsu. "Brandish! Where are you?"

"Over here!" I look to my left and I see her locked in combat with Winter General Invel. "I need help Erza! I have never beaten Invel in battle before! His Frost touch can kill you instantly and is immune to fire. Ice resistance does not work against it because it is a soul magic." Ground wave. What should have been an impossible amount of magic shout out of her body and into the ground as the Earth in front of her swelled into what looked like a tidal wave. HARDEN AND CONSUME! I saw the Earth wave solidify as if it had become Iron and swallow up the Winter General whole. I remembered that she had said she was no match for him. I still can't believe it but I do not believe that she would lie about this. I re-equip into my samurai form. I always have to replace my bandage-bra since it seems like that is the only place I ever get hit while I have this 'armor' on. I don't know why but by the time the fight is over, half the time I am topless and my enemy is knocked out with a stupid grin on his face.

"Brandish! Release him!" She looks at me quizzically until she sees that I am charging up my single sword. As she releases him I see a large burst of magical power coming from where Invel should be.

Invel PoV

'It shouldn't be this easy to break Brandish's hardened Earth.' As Invel was thinking Erza was moving in for the kill. "SHIT! It's a combo attack!" Erza plunges in from a small opening from the top of the wave, which now resembles more of a sphere as the Earth, released from Brandish's control is being destroyed my Invel's blast wave. 'She is the one who took down Ajeel! I can Block the sword an then I can make contact with her foot! That will be enough to freeze her soul.

Erza PoV

"Now!" I yell to Brandish as she shrinks my body to the size of a mouse, surprising Invel. He takes a step back as planned and right before I hit the ground Brandish enlarges me to twice my original size. This triples the power of my blade as I run the Winter General clean though. He looks up at me in shock.

"Well done, I am impressed miss Scarlet, I did not think that I was capable of being beaten with a sword. You two have proven me wrong. Let me make sure you can't do it again." He reaches out to touch me but I re-equip into my Adamantine armor just in time to stop his fingers from touching my skin. He then reaches down to my sword and snaps it in two. Effectively ruining my re-equip. Since I lost the second sword in the fight with Trinity Raven I have been searching for my sword's match, but I have yet to find it. "I know the creator of this sword miss Scarlet. He only made two, and they are some of the most powerful swords in existence. It is too bad you could never use them to their potential." With this he collapsed and was slowly dying. When he hit the ground I felt the magic leave his body and return to the Earth and the blade finished severing his spinal cord, paralyzing him, and ending the pain he was feeling.

Lucy PoV

As Erza and Brandish took on the general Grey and I were focused on the army. Along with the remainder of Fairy Tail we had to fight nearly one million men, overall they were very weak, maybe at the strength of max each. But not only did these guys have internal magic, they also had magic staffs that shot magic lasers at us. Juvia and Cana were doing a good job keeping them off of us but they couldn't hold out forever. We needed to start wiping them out quickly. "Grey Silvers Freeze!

Silver's freeze!

As he froze the ground solid along with the feet of everyone within a 100 meters in front of him and 100 meters to the side. Nearly 75 thousand men were stuck as they attempted unsuccessfully to free themselves. Grey collapsed to the ground temporarily. "Damn, that was taxing." Grey said wobbling as he stood up.

Star dress! Sagittarius! Star shot! Raining lightning! I transformed as I set up to rain hell down upon the army. But just then I felt the ground rumble from one of Acnologia's blasts. The ice shattered and I fell to a knee. But just as I was about to get hit from the staffs lasers a blinding light shone from the sky. I did not recognize this light, it wasn't Master's, and it wasn't Laxus. He was across the battle field fighting with his Thunder Legion. The ground liquefied beneath the army's feet and they all start to react in fear. Suddenly a pink band appears on many random soldiers outside of the liquid Earth and on one single person within it.

Grand chariot

Now I recognize this magic. Crime Sorciere has arrived. Jellal appears first, as he takes out the remainder of those encased in liquid ground, the others catch up and Grey now consumes his lacrima. Mine is long gone by now, I used it last time Grey and I shot off our Raining lightning-Frozen ground combo.

Grey runs to his left. "Juvia! Now!" She stops glaring at me and muttering 'love rival' and follows Grey to the western side of the army surrounding them. Leaving me to talk to Jellal.

"Hello Lucy," he says. "We have come to help you fight the army, and clear a way for Erza to reach Natsu. There is nothing left to say, let us fight."

Grey PoV

Juvia and I are running towards the western side of the army, and it is quite difficult since I can't get her to keep a little space between us. Not like I am complaining, I secretly like her clinginess. Not like I can tell her that. But it would be nice not to be tripping over each other's feet as we ran. It's ok if I leave Lucy right? With Jellal there she should be ok. It is about time Juvia and I take out this side since Cana and … Where did the western army go? All I see is crushed gravel? "Juvia thinks Guildarts was here!" Just as she said that I spotted him in the rubble.

"Guildarts!" I ran over to him, "Juvia! Give him your Lacrima." Before I finished she already had handed it to him.

"Thanks guys." He said weakly. "These guys really take a lot out of you. This is the first time I have fought an army. I usually use so much magic per attack that I couldn't really hold back against these guys, and so I ran out of magic quickly."

"Its ok old man, you did well." Ice make-fortress wall

I felt an enormous blast of magic behind me heading right for us. I see Jellal and the remainder of Crime Sorciere on the ground not moving, and the Celestial Spirit King's head, burned and severed.

"You thought you were done with me did you? I underestimated you guys last time and that was a mistake. This time I am going to use my full power on you Fairy Tail!"

"Father August. How are you alive?" I turn around to see the speaker of these words was Guildarts- son of August.

"Ah my boy Guildarts, how is it to fight a losing battle? I have never known defeat until today. I will not allow it to happen again."

Guildarts charges but doesn't make it to August, he is blown back in a blast of air magic, Guildarts? Pushed back?

Ice devil's rage!

August then flicks away my attack like it was nothing, as If Silvers' power was nothing more than a puff of smoke.

"His magic is beyond compare but his body is weak!" Guildarts shouted. "One hit on his body and he will go down!"

Juvia and grey in unison. "Got it! Unison raid-devils droplet ice grenaDe shower!

A bombardment of water droplets rained down on August. Each time august hit one the droplet turned to ice after absorbing the power of the magic. That ice continued to rain down closing in on August. He fired a radial burst, turning all of the droplets to ice as they absorbed his magic like lacrima. "You cannot stop our unison raid! We have perfected this technique after 6 months of daily training with combination magic attacks. Another Radial blast escaped August before the shards reached him, yet all that did is make the number of shards multiply. They were less than 15 feet from August now!

Fairy Sphere!

Out of nowhere a large sphere rose over August destroying the blast of raining demon slaying ice. It then dissipated. I was awestruck and afraid. "It took our entire guild's magic to do that last time! And you can do it by yourself? How? That shouldn't even be possible.

"I am the mage king, my power rivals that of Zeref and Acnologia. But my body is to weary to fight, so I have learned the most powerful defense spells the world over. You cannot overpower me, you cannot outwit me, and you cannot touch me. I am invincible, you would do well to remember that with the little time you have left, I have already eliminated the spirit mage and the group following the one who possessed heavenly body magic. Now it is your turn, my son, the water woman, and the devil slayer. Fairy Tail will die alongside Acnologia today. Then, by Zeref's orders, the rest of humanity. Once all of the humans are dead, Zeref will live in a world alone until his time runs out. He has a very, very, long time to live.

"Shut the fuck up!" Laxus roars as he descends upon August. Dragon force! Lightning dragons firing hammer

Before Laxus' fist makes contact a blast of darkness envelops August, and fires towards Laxus. Deaths touch

Laxus falls to the ground, motionless and with lifeless eyes, dead. Now for you Guildarts, you always were a weak child.

Juvia's PoV

The battle that ensued was tremendous. Guildarts deflected every attack that was thrown at him. He was never able to even get close to August however. He couldn't have been human. It wasn't possible. Guildarts fought like Natsu does, with so much rage and tenacity. Slowly damage started to show on Guildarts, and given him my lacrima. The Earth around us began to shatter, turning to dust beneath Guildarts. "Grey! Silver's Compound bow!" Grey pulled out his large bow that he had used to kill Mard Gear. Guildarts appeared above August and came crashing down on him at full force.

Fairy Sphere! August smirked, he has released his most powerful magic defense, no matter the power Grey or Guildarts could muster would fall far short.

Disassembly roar of the fire dragon A blast of fire escaped from the mouth of Guildarts striking the Sphere and breaking it to pieces as an arrow of ice slipped through a hole in the sphere while being propelled by a torrent of water. When the dust settled August could be seen with the arrow, in his hand. His hand was glowing red as he caught the arrow with a type of ancient warrior magic that increased the reaction time of the caster. Also returning him to peak physical form.

"My turn, I can now make contact with you, you won't last a minute."
