"It doesn't matter. Soon you will all know the terror that is Rusalka."...
The streets of Magnolia were shaking. The atmosphere around the town was like a warfare. Countless explosions and breaking of buildings could be heard. Currently, an organization known as Rusalka was invading the town. Or rather, they were openly challenging the wizard guild Fairy Tail to a bout. The reason behind their actions was to cause a commotion which would allow them to capture Levy McGarden, one of Fairy Tail's wizards. Why they were after Levy was still unknown. In a street that was seemingly calm as there wasn't much battling in that area, two figures were facing off. One was Gajeel, the iron dragonslayer that was known in all of Fiore as an incredibly strong individual. He was also part of Fairy Tail. When Levy was about to be captured Gajeel suddenly arrived saving her. The second figure was known as Uwe Blitztank. One of the famous group of wizards called 'Six Super Rookies' and apparently, someone connected to Rusalka. He came to Magnolia with the excuse of being interviewed when his actual reason was to execute his plan. Uwe spent the whole day trying to abduct Levy. Now the two of them were about to start a fight.
"Terror of Rusalka? What the crap are you talking about?" The black haired mage asked his foe. Levy, who was hiding behind Gajeel was equally intrigued with Uwe's exclamation. The white haired however kept a smile on his face.
"I believe that you didn't come here to discuss such trivial matters. Now come, I'll show you the power of the 'Six Super Rookies." After saying that Uwe tauntingly stretched his hand and gave the dragonslayer the 'come and get me' plea. Gajeel was amused by his opponent's antics and made a wide smile. He pressed his fingers forming fists and raised his arm to shoulder length.
"You have a point there. I only came here to wipe the floor with your face."
…..
"Jeez, there really is a lot of them."
A few blocks away from the previous incoming battle two girls were surrounded by a large group of people. Back when Fairy Tail marched into battle they split into groups to cover more ground. Some of them formed large teams while the ones with more power went with fewer people. Heavyweights like Erza went on their own.
"Cana! Wendy! What is the situation on your side?"
Suddenly, a voice resounded in the girls heads. Back at the guildhall one person stayed behind. He was a slim man of average height with black, straight hair wearing a double-breasted sleeveless green tunic held closed on the chest by four buttons, with pale green sleeves emerging from under it, tucked inside long, similarly-colored gloves, and a light green sash circling his waist. It was Warren Rocko a mage who was using telepathy magic. With his powers, Warren's job was to track the progress everyone is making as well as potentially call for back up if someone was struggling.
"We're kind of surrounded by a bunch of them." Cana said while looking around. Their backs were pressed against each other while the eyes of a dozen of mages were firmly pointed at them. People wearing a black cloth resting on their right shoulders with yellow outlines decorating it.
"The thunder god tribe is just around the corner. Should I tell them to back you up?" Warren said.
"Nah. This much won't be a problem." The card magic refused the offered help and simply shrugged her shoulders. After that she turned her head a bit to the left so that she could eye Wendy.
"You ready?" Cana spoke to the sky maiden while smiling. Looking at her Wendy did the same.
"Sure!"
Their determination caused some commotion from the group of wizards they were about to fight. It was mostly ill mannered comments and creepy smirks.
"Oi ,oi, would you look at that. A woman and a little girl are acting all tough while surrounded." One of them said.
"I was scared when we challenged Fairy Tail, but this!? Ha, this is gonna be like stealing candy from a baby" Another commented. After a moment of laughing they readied themselves for attack. Some of them drew their weapons while others stayed behind and chanting different spells. There were also those that were holding lacrimas pointed at the Fairy Tail mages. With a loud shout the group unleashed their magic. A large beam of magic was formed when all of the attack clashed on their way combining.
"With this they have no chance at all." Confidence was high amongst them. Unknown to them however, was the fact that all of their confidence would be soon washed away.
"Here I go!"
SKY DRAGON'S ROAR!
Wendy took a deep breath, so deep in fact that her normally slender body expanded so much that she looked round like a ball. Then she exhaled unleashing a hurricane-like blast at her opponents. The sky dragonslayer's roar matched both the size and the power the opposing blast offered. When both attacks collided violent winds were blowing the point of impact.
"I-Impossible that little girls attack has enough power to match our combination? How is that even possible!?" To say the Rusalka ages were shocked was an understatement. After a bit of struggling the beams exploded causing the dirt from the ground to rise and to obstruct everyone's vision.
"Cough, cough… Incredible. Wait, did she say Sky dragon's roar? Then she's a dragonslayer!." One of the thugs recognized Wendy's magic which surprised most of his friends.
"A dragonslayer!? Then she's just like…" A different one started talking but he was soon interrupted by a light that was making it complicated to see. When the dust cleared and he opened his eyes he came to a revelation. The source of light was a card that was lying on the ground.
The prayer's fountain!
All of a sudden a loud voice echoed around the street. From the card several beams of water erupted. Catching them off guard, multiple mages were knocked out by the sharp streams while others managed to evade them. The ones that escaped were shocked at the number of people taken out by a single attack. Coming to their senses they turned their heads to look at the culprit. A distance away Cana was standing and smiling happily. In her right hand she was holding three cards.
"Not so much of a pushover huh?" Her confident gaze awoke some uncertainty in her opponents. Now, they weren't too sure about their victory.
"Stupid wench. Come on guys let's try again." One of the persons tried his best to wake his comrades up in witch he succeed as the ones that weren't wiped out all started reading another attack.
"Like that will work. Let's finish this Wendy!"
"Right! Let's do it." The blue haired nodded in agreement and took another deep breath.
SKY DRAGON'S ROAR!
Once again she unleashed her roar. The speed of her attack outmatched her opponents by far, hitting its target before they could even launch their. The group of mages was hit directly causing a large explosion where they were standing. People lost their footing and were catapulted into the air from the shear force. After the dust that rose cleared only a few wizards left and they were all beat down lying.
"No way… How could we lose so easily?" A single voice was heard from the once large group. As they were crawling trying to find some space to get up, one of them felt something under his hand. When he looked cold sweat formed on his forehead. He instantly shot his gaze towards the card mage.
"A card!? When…When did she had the time to place it?"
"And now to finish it!" Cana raised her right hand to which the cards that were shattered on the ground all started glowing.
HEAVEN, REVERSE DEATH, MOUNTAIN!
SUMMONED LIGHTNING!
When her words escaped her mouth green lightning bolts came out of the cards and fired itself at the thugs. All of the remaining mages were electrocuted, ultimately rendering them unconscious. Observing the results of the battle Cana contentedly looked at her friend and raised her hand asking for a high five. It didn't take long for Wendy to react as she happily jumped and clapped her hand with Cana's.
"Good job! Hey Warren? You there?" The brown spoke to herself hoping for an answer from Warren.
"Sure, I'm here. Tell me your status." A familiar voice was echoing in her head. Warren was immediately asking for the situation knowing that they were surrounded a moment ago.
"Things are clear on our side." She said.
"How are the others faring?"
"So far so good. They are still a lot of them just around the corner where you are. Since you're free go and back up Freed and the rest."
"Roger. We'll be heading there immediately." Cana ended the transmission and turned towards Wendy. Not speaking a word they just nodded to each other and headed out.
"It's weird." Suddenly, Cana spoke while they were running.
"What is?" Wendy was surprised at her elder's words.
"These guys… they are just weak." The brown haired made a worried expression. Something was bugging her. She was looking in front of herself not losing focus even for a second. Her friend the dragonslayer noticed her gaze and grew worried herself.
"Isn't that a good thing?" Trying to calm the tension that was in the air the blue haired jokingly said while putting her right hand behind her head and sweatdropping a bit.
"It is… But something just seems fishy. You'd think that they'd be stronger. I mean they openly assaulted our town. They knew that we wouldn't stand still. Knowing that, they're either stupid, or plotting something." The card mages words caused an amount of doubt in Wendy's face. In her head she thought that Cana just might be right. And if she is, what is the aggressor really planning? Her thoughts didn't last long as they were interrupted by the sight of a green haired young man with purple wings flying through rubble that was falling.
Dark Écriture: Pain
With a slash from his sword, purple colored letters were sent flying at group of people wearing similar clothes as the people Cana and Wendy defeated. When the letters connected with the mages loud screams started coming out of their mouth. An incredible and painful shock was shivering down their spines as they fell on their knees and started rolling in agony.
"Ch, there's still so many of them." Fairy Tail's Freed Justine was sweating as he spoke those words. Sure, the foes he was fighting didn't stand a chance against them, but their numbers were still tiring. He turned his head to check how his friends were doing. Bickslow was putting his baby's to use by slamming them at his opponents while Evergreen was using her eye magic to turn most of the wizards to stone.
"You need a hand?" Suddenly, Freed heard a familiar voice. When he turned at the source of the sound he spotted Cana and Wendy running towards them
"A helping hand is always valuable." With a little smirk the green haired answered.
"Alright, let's show them what Fairy Tail wizards are all about!"
…
"Is that all that Fairy Tail has to offer?"
Some distance away from the previous fight there were Fairy Tail members that weren't coping so well. Four persons were leaning on a buildings wall while facing enemy mages. One of them was a slim young woman with wavy lavender hair and glasses. She was wearing a red mantle, held closed on the front by a ring, over a strapless, dark dress, with a revealing neckline and a series of light-colored squares adorning its lower part, which had a light belt circling it around her waist, with three bullet-like objects attached to it on the left side, and dark boots.
"Jet, Droy, Max! Are you guys OK?" The girls was asking while panting heavily.
"Don't worry Laki. It's gonna take a lot more than that to take us out" Max was saying using this opportunity to smile a bit. It didn't take long as he was soon seen struggling for air.
"Still, we're in a clear disadvantage here. If things don't change soon we might get in trouble." Jet said.
"Hahahahahahaha, come on men this our chance. If we take out these weaklings I'm sure Uwe-sama will praise us. Maybe he'll even reward us." Confidence wasn't something that the criminals lacked apparently. They were slowly approaching the cornered quartet.
"Here it goes." Droy said while raising his guard and preparing for a counter attack. A moment of silence occurred. It was like the calm before the storm. A face-off between the Fairy Tail mages and the evil wizards. The evil wizards were the first to leap, but they stopped when they heard footsteps. Seeing the confusion Laki, Max, Jet and Droy couldn't help but face the same direction were the footsteps were resounding. And when they did they widened their eyes and mouths considerably.
Walking towards them was a very tall and muscular young man with blue eyes. His blond hair was slicked back, its numerous spiky strands pointing backwards, though some fell down in a small tuft on his forehead. He had a distinct lightning bolt-shaped scar on his right eye.
"LAXUS!" All of them said in unison. Yes the one approaching was none other than Fairy Tail's S-class wizard, grandson of the master and leader of the Thunder God tribe, Laxus Dreyar.
"Here I come back from a job and what do I find? My city in flames." Laxus spoke while his eyes were closed. When he opened them he looked at the group of mages that was cornering his guild mates. His gaze caused shivers down his enemy's spines.
"Oi, T-That's L-Laxus? W-We're not ready for this, let's head back where Kentaro-sama is." One of them said.
"Are they the ones who attacked you?" the blond asked.
"Y-Yes" Laki was the one who answered. Her voice was shaking a bit even though he was an ally.
Laxus made another stern expression and then said.
"The nerve…. The nerve you have attacking my guildmates. For that I will pay you back. Hundredfold." His eyes widened a bit and a huge vein popped out on his forehead. He was obviously furious.
"MEN! RETREAT AT ONCE THIS IS NOT AN OPPONENT WE CAN FACE." A loud scream erupted from the crowd. When the words sank in the others heads they started running panicky trying their best to escape as soon as possible. It was futile though. Before they could put some distance between them a huge lighting bold struck all of the wizards fleeing. Painful roars echoed around the streets of Magnolia. When the lighting stopped all of them fell on the ground defeated. Going back to Laki and the others, they were still in a state of shock.
"Wow… He beat them in one swoop." Jet said wide eyed.
"W-What did you expect. This is Laxus we're talking about." Droy answered with sweat falling from his forehead.
"Oi!" The quartet stiffened momentarily when they heard the s-class mages voice.
"Are there more where those came from? Take me there."
"R-Right away."
…..
On top of Magnolia a single person was floating and observing the battle that was unfolding beneath him. It was a certain black haired teen. He's been holding this position since he sensed a large amount of people nearing Magnolia. So far he's seen the skirmish that Cana and Wendy won as well as Laxus' total extermination of his enemies. The display of power from the blond piqued his interest for a bit but it soon washed away. He was a bit disappointed with what he's seen. The young man closed his eyes for the moment and exhaled. He stayed that way for a bit as his thoughts fled for a brief moment. The saiyan was recalling some of the battles of his past. Blood was gushing everywhere and corpses were filling the streets. Vaguely remembering, he pictured the sight in front of him. Loud screams, fire that was burning and the sound of troops firing of their ki blasts at innocent people. Then a young kid appeared, he was the spitting image of the person remembering this. The kid had a crazy look in his eyes. Huge amounts of blood was dripping from his armor although he didn't seemed injured at all.
"This is how war should look like." Was what the teen was thinking.
Looking back at his younger look-a-like he observed as the kid was brutalizing countless warriors. His physical power was unmatched by all of them. Then he looked to the side a bit while smiling maniacally. He raised his head a bit and noticed something. There on a hovercraft like vehicle a small creature was looking at the chaos and laughing. It was a laugh that you could only hear in nightmares. As evil as a laugh can be. The creature was a relatively short humanoid with a large chestnut-shaped skull and two horns. It had blood red pupils and a red gem on his head. Soon the kid's eyes met with the creatures.
"Hmm?..." The teen snapped out of his thoughts and started falling. He forgot to focus on floating while remembering. It didn't take long for him to regain his composure and start floating again. He thought about the face of the creature. As he did so he started gritting his teeth heavily and squeezing his fists. After he let out some steam he took a deep breath and exhaled.
"How a war should look like?"
Once again he started thinking. The evil smile of the creature from a moment ago was replaced by a warmer one. In his mind an old man appeared. He was lean and had pale skin. A long white beard decorated his face. From his mouth a familiar sentence was escaping:
"The value of one's life is unimaginable high. Just as high as the pain of losing someone you care about. The pain that you feel now is the same pain others fell when they lost someone. Knowing that, how can you want for others to feel that way?"
Those words were resounding in his mind as he was making a cold expression. He then turned his gaze below. There a black haired man and a white haired one were about to showdown.
…
IRON DRAGON'S CLUB!
Gajeel shouted and started running towards Uwe. His right arm transformed into a large steel club and moved forward at his enemy. Blitztank, who was taken aback by his opponents attack, raised his forearms and made the posture to block the incoming attack. However, before Gajeel's attack hit, the white haired shouted a scream of his own.
EXPAND!
His forearms grew in size until they were big enough to protect his whole body. When the iron club connected with Uwe's arms nothing happened.
"Huh, pathetic. Is that all a dragonslayer can dish out?" The white haired reverted his arms to their normal size. Gajeel was frustrated that his club was blocked so easily.
"This might be a pain" He said.
"Be careful Gajeel! He uses some weird spell that prevents you from using magic." Levy was shouting from a safe distance. After the iron dragonslayer came to protect her she backed off a bit both to keep a safe distance between her and Blitztank and to give them enough space to battle it out.
"I know, I saw it. This piece of trash should think twice if he thinks I'm gonna fall for such a cheap trick Gihihi." He said amused. Uwe however, just stood there with a serious expression. Soon he launched an attack of his own. This time it was his fist that grew in size as it was traveling in his opponent's direction. Gajeel made a simple smile and jumped up dodging the upcoming fist. While in air he swung his right leg to the right and roundhouse kicked with a shout.
IRON DRAGON'S CLUB!
His leg transformed and landed a direct hit on Blitztank's face. The super rookie was catapulted in the nearby rubble.
"Gihihi…" The black haired was smirking confidently as he saw his attack connecting. It didn't last long though as he saw his opponent getting up easily.
"More…I'll need more…" Uwe was mumbling something to himself. While Gajeel wasn't too concerned by it, Levy on the other hand felt some uneasiness.
"More? What does he mean? Be careful Gajeel!" She raised her voice for her guildmate to hear.
"Geez… Just stay there and hide. You don't need to tell me that. I got this." The iron dragonslayer however, just waved his hand at her and ignored Levy's words. His actions annoyed the blue haired greatly.
"I'm just trying to help you. You jerk!" She came out from her hiding place and bursted at the black haired. Gajeel didn't let that comment slide as he soon replied.
"Who are you calling a jerk? I came all the way here to save you dammit!" For a brief moment he turned his head to Levy's direction to confront her. That second of inobservance was used by Blitztank. Sensing something coming at him Gajeel quickly returned his attention to his fight and dodged an incoming blow.
"You'd be wise to concentrate on me." Uwe made a smirk as he looked at his foe. The yellow markings that were decorating his blue coat were now floating in the air. With one hand motion from him, the markings formed a figure. It had eight legs, a pair of grasping pedipalps and a tail with a stinger on the end of it.
"A scorpion!? What kind of magic is this?" The iron dragonslayer was bewildered by the sight in front of him, same as was Levy behind him.
"Are you impressed? It's a type of magic that allows me to control any pattern that I'm wearing. Now, taste the furry of my beast. Go…" The scorpion that was made out of the markings on Blitztank's coat began walking towards Gajeel. When he neared his target the stinger on his tail started glowing in a yellow light. The beast retracted his weapon and struck it down at the Fairy Tail wizard. The black haired dodged the incoming attack and started running at the beast. He jumped high in the sky and again transformed his arm into an iron club which he then launched at the scorpion. However, before he could hit his mark the yellow markings dispersed and returned to its source.
"First it was that green room, then his limbs grew in size and now this? Just how many types of magic can this guy use?" The blue haired Fairy Tail mage that was now hiding behind a pile of rubble was asking herself.
"Gihihihi… You're not too shabby. It looks like I can go wild for a bit gihihi." Gajeel wasn't too flustered. Rather, he was enjoying the fact that his opponent had some skills. Otherwise it would only be a bore for him.
"Now let's stop warming up. I'm gonna get serious now." He took his battle stance and eyed Blitztank to which the latter responded with a wide smirk.
"Please do…" As the white haired said those words the markings took another form. Now it looked like a bird with wide and long wings that had large talons. The bird soon charged at the black haired. Gajeel just made a confident look and waited for the markings to come at him. When they neared him he started to make countermeasures.
Iron Dragon's Lance: Demon Logs!
He turned his arm into a large spearhead and set it in front of him. When he did so a magic seal appeared in front of it and Gajeel made confidently smiled. Soon, a large number of spears were rapidly fired. When seeing that Uwe flinched a bit. He moved his hand trying to maneuver his way out but ultimately failed when a couple of spears found its way and hit the beast created from yellow markings. It wasn't over, as the spears continued rapidly in the super rookies direction. A bit of sweat was seen on his forehead as he tried to dodge. After successfully dodging the first few, Blitztank stood on his spot and made a loud shout.
"EXPAND!"
His words echoed throughout the empty streets as his torso gained size and expanded accordingly. The spears all landed at his oversized stomach and stopped. The white haired looked at the weapons that he deflected and gave out a sigh. Then he raised his head only to see his opponent right in front of him.
Iron Dragon's Sword!
Once again Gajeel transformed his arm. Now it was a large, jagged sword. The mage raised his right arm and struck it down immediately. Blitztank didn't waste any time as he expanded his forearms and used them to shield himself from the incoming blow. He put them together in a boxing block and made it just in time.
"Heh…huh…You never learn do you…huh? When I'm like this…huh…you cannot harm me." The white haired was panting heavily. His opponent just looked at him with his wide smirk and started laughing.
"O…you sure about that, bastard?" When he said that the blade started moving. The spikes on the blade started going around it making it all look like a chainsaw. The sharp spikes connected with the unprotected large skin and started cutting through it.
"AAAAAGHHH…" A large and painful roar left Blitzatnk's mouth as his forearms returned to their normal size. In that moment Gajeel took another step forward, retracted his right arm and clenched his fist.
Iron Dragon's Lance!
He turned both of his arms into long poles and started to move circular around his axis. As the pols were moving they took out anything in their vicinity, including the super rookie. Uwe crashed into a wall from the blow he received.
"And now to finish it." The black haired started inhaling large amounts of air. When he collected all the power he needed he unleashed a dark grey tornado with shards of metal in it.
IRON DRAGON'S ROAR!
His attack hit its target immediately as soon nothing but a large cloud of dust was the only thing seen.
"Huh… Nothing but talk in the end gihihi." Gajeel rested his now normal arms on his waist and looked at the cloud.
"You did it Gajeel!" Soon Levy joined the celebrations and got out of her hiding place to be by Gajeel's side. The black haired however narrowed his eyes.
"Wait!" She suddenly stopped. The black haired stopped for a moment and looked around.
"Can you hear that?" Levy was asked by her savior. After hearing that the blue haired calmed down a bit and focused on the sound. It was coming from the cloud of rubble. A metal sound was resounding, or rather, the sound of metal breaking. Confused, the two were focusing their gaze on the cloud and waited for the particles to fall down. Their sight was improving gradually and when the dust cleared they widened their eyes in shock and disbelief. Uwe was sitting on the rubble on eating any metal tool, scrap, or anything he could find.
"H-He's eating metal!? J-Just like…" Sweat was falling from Levy's face. She turned to take a look at Gajeel and he was no better. In fact he was even more shocked than she was. After enjoying his meal Uwe stood up and eyed the duo looking at him. Making a wide, sickening smile he said.
"This actually doesn't taste bad at all… I see…So you eat metal to power up. How convenient." He raised his right hand and observed it for a while. Then he ogled the rest of his body.
"Wow! I feel the power surging! It's incredible! So that's how that arrogant fool feels." Making a satisfied expression the white haired started laughing loud.
"I-I don't understand. How can you eat metal?" The puzzled Gajeel spoke. He asked his opponent all the while keeping the same facial expression he had when he first saw it. Sweat beans were visible on his forehead.
"Ha…ha…hahahahahahahaha. So you still don't understand it. Well I'd expect nothing less from a second rate guild hahaha." Uwe was laughing his pants out. His reaction angered the two mages in front of him, but before they could speak the super rookie told them:
"You see. Exactly one year ago I had a lacrima planted inside my body." After hearing that Levy stepped back a bit and asked:
"A lacrima?"
"Yes, a lacrima. It was one that held incredible magical properties. You see, after my body absorbed it I gained a certain ability. Since that day if my body is hit by a certain amount of magic it can copy it to perfection." The white haired stood on top of the rubble proudly as he watched the disturbed faces on Gajeel and Levy.
"You mean…" Levy said but was soon interrupted-
"Yes. I'm a copycat wizard. Someone that doesn't master magic of his own, but copies the magic he sees." After the revelation Blitztank started omitting a green magic around his body. He looked Gajeel in the eyes confidently and raised the amplitude even more. The nearby building that were still intact were now cracking under the pressure.
"Can you feel it 'Black Steel' Gajeel. Can't you see the irony? Your own powers will be the one that will defeat you hahahahahaha." Once again Uwe started laughing maniacally. Gajeel on the other hand was not. He was holding a stern expression as he looked at the white haired.
"What a load of crap…" The black haired said causing Blitztank to look at him.
"So you're nothing but a faker. This fight has gone on long enough. If you want the power of a dragon I will show it to you to its fullest extent." He was gazing angrily at his foe. Levy, who was still standing next to him was taken aback by her guild mate. She looked at him worriedly only to see the determination in his eyes.
"Gajeel…"
"I worked my ass off to be were I'm now. People like you who copy someone else's magic are nothing but weaklings who aren't prepared to sacrifice their time. You're an insult to every mage there is and I'll be the one to kick some sense into you. A fake will never be able to beat the real thing." Gajeel took pride in his words. With his new resolve he readied himself to battle again. Levy was still looking at him but after hearing his speech she was now wearing a warm smile on her face.
"A faker?" Suddenly, Uwe spoke. He lowered his head and his bangs fell down covering his eyes. Both Fairy Tail mages reverted their gazes back to him.
"You're a fool for thinking that. I'm more than a simple copycat." The magic around his body grew bigger by the minute. Now the debris that was on the ground was starting to float.
"I will take your power and go a step further. Somewhere that you would never reach. You know why? Because I deserve power, unlike you." As he was talking black motives were starting to draw themselves on his body. They covered every inch of it and resembled the scales of a dragon. After they ended their process his skin was starting to gain a silver color. Uwe's body was gradually turning into metal.
Iron Dragon's Scales!
"Levy go back to the guild." All of a sudden Gajeel spoke while still eyeing Uwe. Surprised, she turned to him and said:
"What do you mean go back, I can't just…."
"JUST GO ALREADY!" The iron dragonslayer shouted with all his might scaring Levy in the process.
"They're after you so you need escape from here as soon as possible. Don't worry about me. I promise I'll come back." His words struck the blue haired like lightning. She closed her eyes and clenched her fists. Her body started shaking. While biting her lip she turned around ready to leave. But before she did she said just one thing:
"Don't die on me…" And then she started running.
"Now… Let's see who deserves to be called the real thing. Don't you agree?" Uwe looked at Gajeel as he taunted him. Gajeel however just made a smirk and started his trademark laugh.
"Gihihi."
…..
Ice-Make: Knuckle!
In a distant part of Magnolia, the team of Gray and Juvia were sent to do battle with anyone who seemed to harm the townspeople. Right now they were confronting a large group of evil mages. Gray froze the ground under a number of them and from the ice large fists erupted knocking the mages out.
"Gray-sama looks so cool when he's overpowering someone." Juvia was watching her beloved and admiring him.
"Yo bitch! Don't take your eyes of me." One of the wizards shouted. He was holding a large magical sword and running in Juvia's direction. When he closed in on her he swung his sword and seemingly cut her in half.
"Huh, that's what you get for taking me lightly." He said while putting his sword on his right shoulder. When he did so he noticed that instead of a corps, what's left was a pile of water.
"Water?" The mage was confused.
"Juvia's body cannot be hurt by a mere sword." The water spoke. Soon all of the drops started gathering. First it seemed like a big pond, but as more of the water was collected it started gaining a form of a woman. Ultimately, Juvia emerged unharmed.
"H-How?" The mage spoke while sweating frantically.
"Juvia's body is made of water." With a blank expression she explained.
"You mean I can't hurt you?" The wizard was shocked and soon started running away.
Water Cane!
Juvia spread out her right arm and water started collecting around it. Soon it gained the shape of a whip. She quickly swung her arm striking down the fleeing foe. After turning around she continued taking out several other mages.
"We're done here Warren." Gray spoke. Back in the guild Warren heard his voice and responded.
"Good job you two. There aren't any of us in your block so I don't really know if there are any attackers left. Just stroll around for a while and then contact me again." Warren said. The black haired ice mage nodded and turned his face to his partner.
"You heard?" He asked her.
"Yes, Juvia did." Around the two of them, countless mages were lying unconscious. Looking around, Juvia took a deep sigh before making an annoyed expression.
"Juvia thought that after beating all of the enemies she could go on a date with Gray-sama." Juvia puffed her cheeks. Gray on the other side sweat dropped at her remark and turned his head ignoring it completely. After he took a few steps away from her, Juvia noticed and started running in his direction.
"Gray-samaaa waiiiit" She shouted out loud.
"Geez what a bother. Anyway let's check if there are any more of those guys around." They started to look around. Nothing much could be seen. It was unusually quiet considering the circumstances. Passing street after street the only thing they saw was the occasional unconscious mage that was probably taken down by their comrades.
"Seriously. It doesn't seem like anything is happening. Should I report to Warren and say that the North part of Magnolia is safe?" After Gray said those words he noticed something. The air was suddenly heavier and fog started to creep in under his legs.
"Mist? That's odd. For it to just appear suddenly." The ice mage was surprised. More so when the flow of the fog started intensifying. Soon it was covering their bodies till knee length.
"W-What is this?" Juvia took a step back. She was taken aback by the development. More and more fog was coming. The Fairy Tail mages started looking around for the source of this but couldn't come to a conclusion. Then, on top of a building a bald, dark skinned person appeared. He was wearing the same clothes as the mages they fought a moment ago so it was safe to assume that he was with them. He was giving them a stern glare as he was watching.
"Bastard! Is this your doing?" Gray was the first to react at the appearance. Juvia, who was standing beside him readied herself and made a sharp look. The figure on top stood still for a moment just peacefully observing them. After that he closed his eyes.
"Did you not hear what Gray-sama asked you? Answer us." The rain woman was growing impatient. The man opened his eyes at her words and started speaking.
"Fairy Tail…" Was all he wanted to say. In the meantime the fog was at their shoulder length. Gray gritted his teeth and moved his arms sideways. As he did that blue light was starting to omit. He stared at the bald man preparing for an attack.
"Fine. If you won't tell us who you are I guess we're gonna have to make you."
Ice-Make: Ice Cannon!
Gray created a large bazooka like handheld weapon and placed it on his right shoulder. He shot a cannonball made from ice from it. The cannonball was heading for the dark skinned man but ultimately went right through him as his body turned to fog itself.
"W-What?" The ice mage uttered words of surprise. Equally surprised as him was Juvia whom gritted her teeth for a moment.
"His body can change its properties just like Juvia's.." They started looking around wondering where he went, but he was nowhere to be found. Then, his voice was resounding once again in the area.
"Fairy Tail… My name is Guido. I'm part of Rusalka and one of the three poles that support Uwe-sama." The fog rose to their necks and was soon about to cover them all. The Fairy Tail wizards were still trying to figure out where Guido was but they just couldn't. The voice that they were hearing wasn't coming from a particular direction. It was more like the mist that was covering this area was speaking to them.
"You have terrible luck running into me for I'll be the one to deliver your heads to my leader. It is funny how you waited for the mist to cover you up like that. But I suppose it only works for me. Now, be devoured by my magic." The voice disappeared once again leaving the wizards alone in their struggle.
"Juvia! Take my hand. We can't let ourselves get caught up in it." Gray stretched out his hand hoping to grab the rain woman.
"Gray-sama!" She continued with the same. Unfortunately, before they could grab each other the fog covered their whole bodies. When they reached the place where their hand should have met, nothing was there.
"G-Gray-sama?" Juvia was reaching out but just couldn't get a hold of Gray. Even after moving from her spot she still couldn't find him.
"Juviaaaa!" Gray was shouting as loud as he could but it was all in vain. There was no response.
"Dammit. This mist is creepy. How could we have gotten separated when we were standing next to each other just a moment ago." He started walking forward trying to figure out a way out.
"There is no way out." The familiar voice could be heard again.
"You creep. What is it that you want from us?" Gray tilted his head left and right but still couldn't find the source.
"Rusalka is planning great things for the future. However, to get to there, one person is crucial. Our mission today is to keep Fairy Tail busy while Uwe-sama is acquiring that person."
"A person? You would go this far just for that?" Gray was asking.
"You see. Whether I defeat you here is of no significance. As long as I can give my master more time, my mission will be complete." The air in the fog was getting heavier and heavier. Gray was starting to sweat heavily as he was listening to Guido's voice.
"However…" After just one word Guido stopped. Then, behind Gray a creature was starting to materialize. The mist was coming together forming a large body. In the middle of it a blood red eye opened. The creature stepped forward and leaned towards Gray. As its head was next to Grays it whispered in his ear.
"Just because I don't need to beat you doesn't mean that I won't." As it said that the creature disappeared. Gray turned around quickly after feeling Guido's breath. When he did there was no trace of him. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists out of frustration. Then, he heard a quick slash of the Air. The only thing he could see was a shadow appearing but it would disappear as soon as he noticed it. The sound was getting louder and louder until the creature materialized for a moment and delivered a blow to Gray's abdomen.
"Guh…." As soon as he felt the pain Gray kneeled down and started holding the place where the pain was coming from. But it didn't stop there. While he was kneeling the creature appeared once again behind him. It grabbed his head and slammed it to the ground. The concrete broke from the impact and Gray's head was getting buried.
"Even if you are Fairy Tail, as long as you're inside this mist there's no way you can beat me." Guido was taunting his opponent. While the ice mage was getting up Guido once again materialized. This time above him. He raised his arms above his head and started gathering magical power. The mist that was in between his hands turned red.
Heat!
The creature lowered his hands unleashing the red mist at Gray. When it connected the ice mage felt the temperature rising exponentially. Sweat started coursing all over his body and every breath he took had a certain weight with it.
"What is this? Why is it so hot?" Gray was asking himself those questions.
"My attacking power may be very low. But what I specialize in isn't overcoming my opponent with physical strength. No, I prefer to slowly watch as he gives in to the suffering." Guido's voice was once again hiding in the mist. The black haired raised his head a little while panting heavily. Slowly he was trying to get up. When he did so he grabbed the shirt he was wearing with his right hand and stripped of his clothes.
"W-Why on earth are you stripping!?" Guido shouted.
"Well it's hot for starters." Gray made a small smirk.
…
"Gray-samaaaa…Gray-samaaaaaa!" Juvia was calling for her beloved after they got separated. She was standing alone unsure of where she is right now surrounded by fog. It was covering every inch.
"How cruel. Juvia got separated from Gray-sama just as they were about to hold hands." Tears were flowing from her eyes. After she recovered from the shock she observed her surroundings. Strangely, she couldn't hear Gray's voice nor feel his magic power. It was like she was isolated.
"What is this magic? It's like he created a world of his own." The blue haired was wandering around attempting to come up with an answer. Then, she heard footsteps. Juvia turned around to the source of it but couldn't see anything.
"Gray-sama is that you? Juvia is so happy!" Convinced that Gray was the one approaching, she spread her arms and started running to him in hope of hugging him. The footsteps were becoming more frequent indicating that the person was running as well.
"Ah Gray-sama!" The rain woman closed her eyes and jumped. However, it wasn't Gray that was running towards her. Out of the mist came a brown bull with large horns. What was weird about it was that its lower part wasn't that of a regular bull but that of a serpent. It had a tail that consisted of green scales. The hybrid jumped and pointed its horns at Juvia. The Fairy Tail wizard came her senses just in the nick of time and manager to avoid the beast by turning herself to water. The hybrid simple went through her. When the water reached the ground it gathered and from it Juvia rose again.
"W-What are you!?" She exclaimed. The beast turned around to face hear and charged at her again. This time Juvia was ready to counter attack. The blue hared raised her right arm and started creating waves of water.
Water Slicer!
The waves were launched at the hybrid. While traveling through the mist they took the shape of blades and continued travelling with tremendous speed. However, when they reached the half bull half serpent they just went through it and into the fog behind. The creature then disintegrated.
"A projection created from fog?"
…
Gray was standing in the fog area that was created by Guido, waiting for him to make a move. He realized that it would be too hard to try locate him, so instead he decided to wait for his opponent to strike and then counter attack accordingly. The creature Guido transformed to, the beast made out of fog with the large red eye appeared next to the ice mage ready to strike him. It raised its hand to shoulder length when suddenly, large, razor sharp talons grew from them. The beast struck down its hand ready to deliver a fatal blow. To its surprise, Gray leaned forward, dodging the attack and countered with and attack of his own.
Ice-Make: Ice Geyser!
He dropped his hands to the ground and froze it. From it, a tower of ice erupted impaling the beast. Gray made a small smirk when he noticed the success of the attack. Unfortunately, it dwindled soon as the creature just returned to mist and disappeared.
"Foolishness. You should've figured out by now that an attack like that won't do you any good." Guido's voice was again heard from the fog. Gray frowned annoyed at his opponent's words and readied himself for another attack. Then, out of nowhere, Gray was struck from behind. Blades resembling scythes came out of the fog and landed on the mages back. The black haired made a painful cry and fell to the ground.
"W-What was that?" He was wondering. His thoughts were interrupted by the sound of laughing echoing through the area.
"Splendid. Things are going just as I predicted." Guido was laughing hard. His words confused the downed Gray.
"Like you planned? What are you saying?" The Fairy Tail mage asked while looking in the direction the sound was coming from. After asking that only more laughs were heard.
"Hahaha. My plan was for the both of you to take out each other. And it's working. If you haven't noticed that attack was from your comrade." The fog mage made a shocking revelation. And indeed Gray was shocked. He narrowed his eyes while still lying on the ground and asked:
"Juvia's attack!? How?" The ice mage was slowly trying to get back on his feet.
"Very well. I shall explain it to you. The mist that is covering this area is no ordinary mist. In fact it's called the 'Lost world'. Anything that resides within it is in a world that I control. As long as you're inside I'm calling the shots. You see, this fog can absorb the magic released inside and I can redirect that magic at you. In other words, as long as you are fighting back there is a great chance that you will be the one to take out your friend." The ice mage widened his eyes. He couldn't believe that he fell for such a trap. What's worse, if he fights back, his attacks will only affect Juvia, but if he doesn't take down the one controlling the mist, Juvia's attacks will keep coming at him.
…
Juvia was currently surrounded by a flock of beasts.
"W-What's happening? Where are those monsters coming out?" She took a step back trying to keep some distance. She knew that she had to devise a plan. To her surprise, the ground beneath her started freezing.
"It's freezing? Does this mean Gray-sama…" Before she could finish her sentence, numerous spikes erupted from the ground. Screams of pain could be heard as the spikes stabbed her flesh all the while injuring her.
"G-Gray-sama?" She uttered those words as she felt the pain coursing through her body.
…
"Warren! Everything is clear on our end." Mirajane was speaking to herself while being connected to Warren telepathically.
"Great. There should be a bunch of them a close to you. I'll check it and then inform you."
"Ok. We'll wait till then." She cut off the connection and took a deep breath. The team of Mirajane, Lisanna and Elfman were fighting for a while now so it was only natural for her to be a bit tired. After exhaling, she opened her eyes and looked at the sight in front of her. Out of all the mages that challenged them only two remained and Elfman took it upon himself to take them down.
"If you're a man fight me!" The take-over mage made a loud exclamation as he eyed his opponents. The two Rusalka mages were sweating heavily, but they still mustered up enough courage for a final drive. They raised their weapons and advanced towards their opponent.
"Man, man MANNNN" One punch was all that it took for the sole Strauss male to knock out the mages.
"That was great Elf-niichan." Elfman turned his head and saw his little sister, Lisanna approaching. By looking at her it was almost unimaginably that she was fighting the whole day. Not a single scratch could be seen on her body, although she did seemed a bit fatigued.
"It was nothing. If I hadn't been able to beat those punks than I wouldn't be able to call myself a man" He clenched his fists and raised it to shoulder length. It was almost like he was posing. His antics caused Lisanna to smile a bit and Mirajane followed very soon.
"Haha. Elfman, that's just like you to say something like that." Mirajane lifted her right arm and set it against her chin while smiling.
"Geez… Nee-chan." The big, buffed male was getting embarrassed by his sister's words and started blushing.
"So what are supposed to do now?" Lisanna was asking her siblings with a thoughtful expression. When they heard her, they looked at each other and thought about it.
"I just talked with Warren and he said we should be on standby for the time being." The oldest of the three said causing the others to let out a sigh of relief.
"Phew… So we can finally take a break." The three of them all sat on the ground at the same time.
"Oh I forgot. How are thinks with you and Evergreen, Elf-niichan?" Elfman suddenly winced at the question and turned to look at his younger sister. She made a playful smile and winked at him. The muscled male blushed heavily at the question and stood up.
"W-What do you mean? T-There's nothing between me and Evergreen." He was having trouble finding words as the question obviously made him uncomfortable. Seeing his reaction made Lisanna only want to tease him more.
"Oh really? Than why did you whisper her name in sleep last night. You were so loud I could hear you all the way in my room." She put her hand over her mouth and grinned devilishly. Elfman's blush intensified after hearing that. On top of that he was now sweating.
"I-I-I didn't. Y-You must've heard wrong." He was now stuttering. His younger sister was amused, but she still felt like torturing him.
"No I'm sure of it. You were saying 'Oh Eve, my Eve.'" The male spit out saliva from his mouth as he heard that while Mirajane was laughing hard. Soon Lisanna joined. At first Elfman was confused but then he figured it out.
"Damn you Lisanna, lying like that." Still blushing the white haired male scolded his sister.
"Sorry Elf-niichan I just couldn't resist." Tears were forming on the corners of the female's eyes from laughing hard. The third sibling who was watching the whole thing was smiling and commenting.
"It's so nice when we're together like this." With her eyes closed she said. Her words caused bright smiles to form on Elfman's and Lisanna's face. Even though they were arguing, as long as the three of them are together they would always be happy.
"If only we weren't fighting those damn dark wizards. They aren't men!" The mood was suddenly disrupted and the three of them were now holding stern expressions.
"Mira-nee. What do you think they're after?" The short-haired girl asked her older sister. Mirajane lowered her head and looked at the ground for a moment.
"I'm not sure. It's really unclear what they want. I don't think that they are guild wizards, I mean all of them had a sign indicating that they are in one but then why would a legal guild do this?" The long-haired voiced her concern.
"Do you think it's a dark guild?" Lisanna asked.
"They could be. But I've never seen that sign before."
"Could they be new dark guilds forming?" Elfman interrupted his sister's conversation with a question of his own. His words caused his younger sister to make a worried face.
"New dark guilds? That sounds scary." The Strauss siblings were concentrated on their conversation. The issue of new dark guilds would be something very troublesome. Not only for Fairy Tail, but for all legal guilds around. As they were conversing a figure was approaching them.
"I see you weren't going easy on my friends there." A voice was coming from a few feet away. The trio flinched at the voice and jumped on their feet. In front of them was a pale person with shoulder length hair.
"Who are you?" The three of them said in unison. Their reaction caused the person to cast a smile.
"Oh. I apologize. I didn't want to startle you. I'm simply the man in charge of those mages you disposed. Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Jama." The crimson haired made sure to acquaint himself with the Fairy Tail wizards.
"So you're the one behind this." Mirajane spoke ready to engage in battle. Soon her brother and sister followed her lead and all shifted to battle stances.
"I'm afraid you're wrong. I'm simply a pole that supports our leader. The real mastermind behind this event." The crimson haired raised his hands and closed his eyes suggesting that he has nothing to do with this.
"If you're a man tell me why you're picking a fight with Fairy Tail?" Elfman stepped forward and confronted the foe. Jama however, just shrugged him of and looked behind him.
"My word. I didn't expect to come across such beauty. Tell me mister, are those beauties related to you?" Jama narrowed his eyes and made a smile. Hearing his words, Mirajane and Lisanna both took a step back while glaring at him. Elfman was infuriated by his comment and lashed out on him.
"Bastard!"
"My My… Don't be so mad. I'm too much of a gentleman to try anything funny. It was just that I don't see such illuminating women everyday haha." The crimson haired put his right hand behind his back and was trying to justify himself. After a moment of staying like that he returned his hand and made a confident expression.
"As for why we're doing this, you needn't worry. This is simply a diversion. As soon as we get what we really came for we will leave." The Straus siblings were confused after hearing that.
"A diversion?" Mirajane said. Jama simply responded by a nod from his head.
"Our goal was to keep you busy as long as we could. Leaving enough time to capture the thing that we need." Elfman gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. Behind him, his sisters were just as angry as him. The fact that they were tricked didn't sit well with them. They spent the whole day playing in their hand. But more importantly…
"You would harm innocent people just to create a diversion?" A deep voice was heard from Elfman. Currently, his eyes were covered by his bangs so Jama couldn't see the look on his face.
"That is simply the price that we were ready to pay." The crimson haired answered while smiling. Mirajane and Lisanna were absolutely livid. The eyes on both of them were wide while their pupils shrank in size.
"You lowlife… You destroyed so much, yet you smile like nothing happened… Unforgivable." Purple light was starting to omit around Mira as she was about to transform.
"Nee-chan…" All of a sudden Elfman stretched out his arm in front of her.
"Elfman…" Both of the Strauss sisters were surprised by their brother's action. But then, after he raised his head and they got to see the look on his eyes, Mira stopped. His eyes were full of fury. An amount that Elfman usually doesn't show.
"Stay were you are. This guy is mine." He stepped forward while facing Jama.
"Oh, you wish to fight me?" The crimson haired looked at him making a carefree expression and asked.
"No…" Elfman's size increased exponentially, with his arms growing longer, larger and sprouting sharp claws. He was starting to get covered in thick fur, with his abdomen and pectorals prominent in the middle. His hair took on a mane-like appearance, his ears and canine teeth became pointed, and he grew a pair of striped horns pointing upwards, starting from a plate on his forehead.
"As a man…I'M GOING TO PUNISH YOU!"
Take Over: Beast Soul!
The white haired took the form of a green monster that was known as his beast soul. The sight before Jama left him speechless for a moment. Then however, a wide smile decorated his face.
"Take-Over? Fate really is a funny thing. Wouldn't you agree beautiful ladies?" He shifted his gaze to Mira and Lisanna again causing them to glare at him angrily.
"Fate? What are you talking about?" Lisanna was asking the man that was about to engage in battle with her brother. The man in question started laughing.
"Haha, you see, I specialize in Take-Over as well." Bright crimson light enveloped Jama's body as it started levitating. An ellipse was formed from the light that trapped the mage's body inside.
"W-What is this? I've never seen a Take-Over like this." Sweat started forming on Mirajane's forehead as she wasn't sure what was happening. Loud noises could be heard. The Take-Over took time to complete. It was like the body inside was getting constructed. Tensions were rising higher and higher and then…
"W-What are you?" Elfman exclaimed in absolute shock.
…
Still floating atop of Magnolia was the black haired teen. Everything that has transpired so far was carefully observed by him. Keeping his cold glare the whole time, he still wasn't particularly impressed with what he's seen
"The real battle is about to start. Although, this one here is about to finish."
…
Iron Dragon's Hard Fist!
Uwe was running towards Gajeel with his farm retracted and fist clenched. The copycat wizard was still covered in iron scales. When he closed in on the dragonslayer he launched his hardened fist at him. Gajeel moved his body to the left evading the incoming fist. Trying to use the opening that was created he clenched his fist and counter attacked.
Iron Dragon's Sword!
His right arm turned to a steel sword and he used it to strike at his opponent. The sword hit Uwe right in the chest, but it just repelled after hitting the scales. After his attack failed to hit the mark, Gajeel jumped backwards getting some space between. The white haired mage looked at the Fairy Tail mage for a moment and then said.
"Why are you still in that form? Aren't you going to use your iron scales?" Blitztank asked confused. The black haired just looked at him with a serious expression and then said to him:
"Don't flatter yourself trash, I don't need to go all out to beat you." The copycat was angered by his foe's words. He narrowed his eyes and glared at the mage.
"So you plan to underestimate me, a part of the Six Super Rookies!?" Uwe shouted at Gajeel. The iron dragonslayer just made a smirk at his remarks and started his trademark laugh.
"Gihihi… I think that I'm taking you more seriously that I should." He grinned at Uwe causing the white haired to lose it.
"That will be your greatest mistake… Once I send you to the afterlife you're going to regret this decision." The super rookie brought out green magical power from his body.
Dragon Slayer's Secret Art!
Gajeel was astonished after he heard the roar from Uwe.
"You can even copy the secret arts!?"
"I told you not to underestimate me. Now prepare to pay the penalty for that!" The white haired raised both of his arms. He used his left one to hold his right by the wrist. With a loud roar he unleashed his magic.
Karma Demon: Iron God Sword!
His right arm turned to a sword just like before, but now it was growing in size incredibly. So much at it reached all the way to the sky. Before he struck it down on his foe he made a wide, evil smile. Then he slammed the giant sword to the ground. Loud noise could be heard as the blade was cutting through the air as it was approaching. Gajeel took one final look at it before it struck him down. It was a point blank hit. The area around was shaking from the huge impact. The ground beneath Gajeel was cut in half with pieces of it falling.
"Haahahahahaha…Rest in peace… Gajeel Redfox." A wide grin could be seen on Uwe's face. He was obviously satisfied with the fact that he has beaten one of Fairy Tail's strongest assets. However…
"Auch… Why is my arm hurting? Did the sword brake from the impact?" The mage was asking himself. Suddenly, he started feeling pain coming from the giant sword.
"No… It doesn't feel like that. It's almost like…." Blitztank had a sudden revelation. As he did sweat started to form on his iron forehead.
"Munch….Munch…Much." Sounds were heard coming from underneath the ground where the sword struck. Gajeel was lying in the crater and nibbling on the gigantic sword that fell on him.
"Gihihi…Now that I've eaten I feel much better." The black haired stood up from his spot and was smiling at the dumbfounded Uwe.
"B-But how?" The confused mage asked.
"You really ain't the sharpest tool in the box… Did you really think you could beat an iron dragon slayer with an IRON attack?" The white haired stood still in his place while sweating heavily. His eyes were widened and his tan was pale.
"B-But dragon slayers can't eat their own attacks!" Uwe was still confused to which Gajeel responded with running his hand through his hair.
"Well that is true. But I wasn't the one that unleashed that iron you idiot." Uwe was in shock. He was wondering how he couldn't have thought of that sooner.
"Now that we're clear with everything… How about I start rampaging, asshole." The Fairy Tail mage bend a bit and then started running at the silent Uwe. Before he could take counter measures, Gajeel was already in front of him.
"So fast…" Without covering his fist in iron or transforming it, he punched Blitztank right in the face. The iron scales protecting his body broke from the impact and shattered.
"Impossible… He broke the scales without using magic!" The white haired was thinking. After hitting the ground, his body reverted to its normal form.
"I told you. A fake can never beat the real thing." The iron dragoslayer was looking down on his fallen foe. However, instead of grieving over his defeat, Blitztank started laughing.
"Hah…hah…hahahahahahaha." His voice was echoing through the area and it was annoying his opponent.
"Hey, what so funny." Gajeel asked.
"Not funny, hilarious. The fact that even though you've beaten me, it makes little difference."
"What do you mean?"
"Levy McGarden…" After hearing Uwe speak that name Gajeel flinched.
"Every one of my underlings knows her name and appearance… Do you really think that she can make it to your guild without getting noticed? Hahahah…" The fallen mage was laughing frantically. But he stopped when an iron club struck him in the gut. Gajeel wasn't amused, rather he was infuriated. His eyes widened and a large vein popped up from his face.
"If even a single hair drops of her head…. I'm going to murder you." The dragonslayer looked Uwe right in the eyes as he was uttering those words. Just by looking at him you could know. He was dead serious.
"Why don't you check for yourself?" Uwe said while grinning. Gajeel immediately turned around and started running at the direction he sent off Levy.
"You better be safe." He whispered to his chin. Though downed, Blitztank was grinning. Then he raised his right hand and whispered a spell
ANTI-MAGIC ROOM!
A familiar green orb appeared below the dragonslayer and trapped him inside. As soon as he was enveloped Gajeel felt the air getting heavier and his magic fading away.
"W-What is this?" He said. Slowly, the white haired stood up and continued to laugh.
"Hahahahahahahahahahahha! What a fool you are letting your guard down like that hahahahaha!" Gajeel was glaring at the mage but he didn't have enough strength to do anything.
"Now how should I finish you off?" Uwe was asking himself.
"Oh I know." The white haired grinned maniacally and went back for some space. When he faced his foe once again he started inhaling air. The dragonslayer knew what he was about to do and gritted his teeth in frustration.
IRON DRAGON'S ROAR!
He decided to finish Gajeel off with his own signature move. When the roar hit Gajeel's body a huge explosion occurred. Smoke started to rise and debris was all over the place. When it cleared up the iron dragonslayer was lying unconscious on the ground
"One fairy down. You can run all you want Levy, but I promise you by the end of the day, you'll be ours."
…
Took me almost a month to update the chapter. To anyone who was waiting for it sorry. College is really pushing me to the ropes and I'm struggling to pass all classes. However, that's none of your concern. With the battle heating up I promise that I'll do my best to do it sooner this time. I recently found a spell checker online so I hope that they aren't any typos this time as for the grammar, I repeat, if you spot anything please notify me, I'm willing to learn. Now to the reviews.
Elvisfonz23: That you for your comment and for your continued support.
Guest-WhereIsTheSaiyan: He probably didn't make as much appearances as one would expect but rest assured as soon as the story develops he will have plenty of screen time.
Guest-NatsuFlameBrain: Thank you.
Joking4ever: No it isn't Vegeta. It's an original character but I can understand why you would think like that. I made it so he has a similar background to him, but he most definitely isn't him.
Rufael: Thank you for both of your comments.
