I can feel the inspiration coming to me. Everyone is pretty busy so I'm not going to waste your time with a long AN. Jack vs Jellal.

Crack

The fist connected with Jack's face, sending the Tartaros mage tumbling down the side of the gritty volcano. Jellal watched as Jack scrambled to slow himself down and the Tartaros mage finally found a way to stop himself from sliding any further and he stood, his black cloak smudged with dust smeared across it. The metal chains snaked out of the mage's cloak and shot towards Jellal, the former Wizard Saint dodging most of them but a few still wrapping around his body and pulling him forward. With a single pull the chains the two mages were face to face.

Jack smiled wickedly as one of the chains floated up to Jellal's face, sporting a curved blade. Jack sighed and breathed deeply. This was the moment he had been waiting for.

"Finally, finally, I can defeat you," Jack slowly laughed as Jellal glared at him, "Do you know how long I have wanted to kill you? Even when I was in Fairy Tail I hated you! And now, everything will finally pay off!"

The chain blade slashed forward.

"Meteor!"

The flash of yellow light sent Jack tumbling back, the chain blade missing Jellal as he blasted away, yellow light trailing behind him. Jack quickly stood, a mass of chains quickly erupting from the black mage's sleeves as Jellal came in to attack. The Wizard Saint blasted towards Jack, the mass of chain blades swarming around the black mage.

"You've underestimated me, Jack!" screamed Jellal as he smashed through the mass of chain blades, every single one of them burning away by the intense heat of friction Jellal's body caused as he blasted through them.

Jellal's fist connected with Jack's shoulder and the former Wizard Saint wasted no time slamming several punches into Jack's chest. The punches kept coming at incredible speed, Jack taking every single one of them. The black mage was slowly moving back, forced back by the incredible force of Jellal's punches. The final punch was delivered straight into Jack's face, sending the black mage slamming backwards, sliding backwards down the hill, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Jellal watched as the cloud of dust slowly cleared, wondering why Jack wasn't doing anything to actually attack. Several chain blades struck the ground, making Jellal jump backwards against the edge of the volcano. He could feel the heat of the lava inside as the chains suddenly shook as Jack used them to speed himself up. Jellal grit his teeth when he saw Jack. The black mage landed perfectly, his body almost unharmed, with only his cloak ripped in some areas. Jellal was surprised to see this. His meteor attack should have at least damaged him! Jack shrugged his shoulders and smiled, he brought his hands up to remove the cloak's hood.

"Jellal, I really thought you were stronger than this. You proved to be a powerful mage when I was still alive." taunted Jack as Jellal grit his teeth and prepared to fight.

Clang clang clang

Jellal let out a shout of pain as three chain blades struck his chest, the blades digging into his skin. Jack let out a laugh as Jellal quickly cut them, grabbing his chest and jumped out of range. Jack grinned as Jellal closed his fist besides two fingers and swiped them back. Jack smiled as a sphere of light rushed towards him.

"Still underestimating me!" Jack shouted as the chain blades shot into the sphere of light.

The ball of light quickly faded away and Jack swung the chain blades towards Jellal, making the mage dodge once again. This continued on for a while, Jack chasing Jellal with a vengeance, chasing him continuously as Jellal attempted to knock Jack off balance. The blades stung as they cut Jellal as he shot spell after spell at him. The light seemed to smash into Jack with full force, but the Tartaros mage would always get back up, seemingly unharmed. Finally Jellal stopped running, taking the force of the blades, but standing firm as he made a spell sign.

"Altaris!" shouted Jellal as every shadow near Jellal was sucked into the small ball of black and white light in front of Jellal.

Jack let out a frustrated groan as chain blades slipped out of his sleeves and formed in front of him like a wall. The metal blades locked into place sort of like a shield and Jellal finally finished charging his spell. Jack grit his teeth.

"Go!"

The ball smashed forward, Jack feeling the force it was creating. Jack suddenly felt something crack. Pain shot through his body. He had broken it? Impossible! Jack let out a scream as the barrier of chains exploded into links of chain and the Tartaros mage was sent straight into the ground, the ground exploding around him as was smashed straight into the side of the volcano.

Jellal stood, the body of Jack stuck in the dirt, unmoving. Jellal sighed and he turned to leave when suddenly chains wrapped around his ankles. The mage turned to see Jack, slowly coming out from the hole, growling and covered in dirt.

"Let's end this Jellal! You think you are so high and mighty! You may have broken my Iron Hide, but you'll never make a mockery of me!" Jack shouted as hundreds of chain blades erupted from his sleeves and flew towards Jellal.

Jellal dodged, expecting nothing to happen when suddenly, the chain blade exploded, sending the mage flying forward into the ground. The one that had hit the ground right in front of him exploded as well. They were explosive! Several hundreds of explosions rang out as Jellal tried not to lose complete sense of where he was. The flames from the explosion burned Jellal's skin as he tried to keep awake as Jack smiled slowly, his smile now crooked.

"I think I can predict what you will do next. Abyss Break, am I right?" Jack said as he grabbed onto Jellal's collar as he stood up.

Jellal said nothing, only watching darkly as storm clouds circled above the volcano and lightning crackled around them, sending the dust of the volcano swirling into the air. Fierce winds contributed to this factor, causing all the dirt and dust to float into the air. They were surrounded by a miniature tornado. Jellal closed his eyes.

"This is the end Jack. By the time this spell is finished, the entire town will disappear from the face of the world." said Jellal darkly.

Jack's face twisted in anger at Jellal's words.

"Haha! Just another evil deed in your book isn't it Jellal? Just another deed to solidify your position as a truly evil person!" Jack laughed.

Jellal smiled slightly. Jack had no idea. Jellal knew he was a sinner. That was unavoidable. But he could do something about it, couldn't he? Jellal felt his body being pushed away and opened one eyes as Jack pointed his hands up to the dark storm clouds.

"This wont be the end for me!" he screamed as hundreds of chain blades shot towards the storm clouds.

The hundreds of blades glowed dark purple and they blended into the sky and Jack let out a sigh as the chains suddenly let out wisps of white light. The storm clouds seemed to disperse and the lightning and Jack stumbled back, grinning. This was the moment to strike! The chains in suddenly exploded into bursts of white light as the storm clouds and lightning disappeared, replaced by clear skies. The chains then switched targets, the hundreds of chains combining together to take the form of a single giant spear.

"Chain Wasp! The Hundred Blade Spear!" Jack screamed as he ran forward, the blade going with him towards Jellal who was starting to stand up.

Thud

Jack looked down at his chest and his eyes widened in surprise as he saw the purple seal on his chest, counting down.

Self-destruct.

Jack looked at Jellal, his face filled with anger. He raised an accusing finger at Jellal, his face one of intense rage.

"Jellal, you bastard! You were willing to sacrifice most of your magical energy, just to cast self-destruct on me. I managed to cancel it, thinking that you would strike back, but…"

Jellal swung Jack over the volcano, the counter starting to reach the thirty second mark. Jellal's face was one of loathing as the volcano boiled underneath Jack.

"You've lost yourself, Jack. You used to be a decent person, but now, you're nothing more than a shell of your former self." Jellal coughed, touching his chest where Jack's final attack had pierced him.

Blood splattered against Jack's cloak as Jellal coughed it up. The air was hot as Jellal loosened his grip, Jack falling towards the volcano.

"Jellal!"

Jellal turned away from the volcano, breathing deeply as he grabbed his chest and collapsed against the side of the volcano.

"He…he really got me…" Jellal sighed as he closed his eyes.

Yeah, this took forever. I'll most likely be rewriting this chapter soon. I didn't like how it came out at all. I guess that is what happens when you write a chapter while watching the midnight frogs.

Anyways, be prepared for a chapter replacement soon and the next chapter soon.
