Chapter 2:Ace In The Hole
Last Chapter was a little rushed. Who am i kidding it was rushed big time. This chapter and most likely all of the future chapters will be way longer than the previous two.
Disclaimer: I do NOT own Fairy Tail, It belongs to Mashima. I do own any OCs included in the story.
'I'm Fairy Tail's ace!' Kori shifted in bed. He heard a noise at the door. "You know, Kori, you really should buy a house. You can't live in the infirmary forever." A familiar scarlet haired mage was leaned on the door.
"Ugh, Wake me up, in an hour. Just not now." He threw a pillow at Erza. He could see her twitching as the pillow slowly fell off of her face.'I'll...Kill him!' She opened her eyes to see him trying to make it out the window."Kori, get out of the window." Erza calmly stared at Kori as she commanded him. He listened to Erza and shifted his scarf. She was in her Heart Kruez armor.
"Let's go on a mission." Kori was surprised by her request. He nodded and began to get his stuff together.
"Comet, wake up. It's mission time." Comet rolled over as Kori did earlier. "I'm too tired for a mission, Kori. Let me sleep some more." Kori picked Comet up and carried him to the S-Class job board.
"What job should we take?" Erza asked Kori as they scanned the job board.
BOOM
Fire erupted from the doors of Fairy Tail.
"LISTEN UP FAIRY TAIL!" A voice roared from outside the guild hall.
"I am Royce, of The Twisted Thorn guild." The black haired mage walked further into the guild. He scanned the hall, clearly looking for someone. "Where is Kori at?" Everyone was silent, as they felt the immense power of the mage. A cold breeze flew through the air. Ice built up from the ground and formed a body that many in the hall recognized. "Kori?" everyone was surprised by his sudden appearance. A surge of power could be felt soaring through the guild. "LEAVE ROYCE! I WILL NOT SAY IT TWICE!" Erza's eyes widened at Kori's sudden outburst. 'What could've gotten into him?' She thought as she watched the two. Many wizards were back behind the doors ready for an attack.
'So this Dark Guild wants a battle? We'll give them a War!'
She took a step forward looking at Royce. 'What magic does he use?' she wondered as she watched the two powerhouses. Suddenly they leaped back from each other.
"Ice Dragon Roar!" Everyone in the guild, Including Erza Gasped at what happened next. "You should know, a puny dragon slayer couldn't hope to defeat the Ice God Slayer, Royce!" Royce ate the ice as the attack connected.
"ICE GOD'S JUDGEMENT" Black Ice surrounded Kori and a giant hammer of black ice smashed the dragon slayer into the ground.
"That's all you got? I thought you would be a challenge!" Royce roared. He once again scanned the guild for an opponent. 'He's insane!' Erza's feet left a crater in the floor as she flew towards Royce. She was now in her Black Wing armor. "Pest." Royce muttered. Black ice made it's way towards Erza. 'NO!' She screamed in her head as the ice made its way to her armor.
Erza was completely frozen. Everyone in the guild ran to help, but was stopped by a cracking sound. 'How did she do that?' Royce was amazed at the strength of Erza Scarlet. She collapsed on to the ground, and was in her normal clothes. "Master!" Fairy Tail members ran to help their master up. Jet being the first one there.
"I'll take my leave now, Fairies. Prepare for a war against Twisted Thorn. You'll need it." With that Royce exited the guild hall. His hair blowing to the side as the cold breeze follows him. His soldiers, the mages of Twisted Thorn, quickly followed him. A giant magic seal was bellow the wizards of the Dark Guild. "Transport." A mage in the group said. The members of Fairy Tail were speechless. A was had started and they were still recovering from Tenrou's disappearance. 'They couldn't worry about that now though.' Macao realized the front of the guild hall and the interior were demolished. "We need to rebuild the hall!" The Guild was once again in a rebuilding state.
'One member almost wiped us out. It just happened to be Royce, The Ice God Slayer.' There had been many rumors of Royce's strength being unmatched. Nobody thought he was that strong. 'Twisted Thorn has stronger wizards than just him though. He isn't the only member with rumors about them in that guild. This war is going to be a massacre. I Can't Let That Happen!' Kori thought as he laid on the ground, powerless.
The Twisted Thorn guild was dark on the inside. "Hey Royce, I'm surprised you actually survived with how weak you are!" A Wizard was in the darkness but Royce couldn't see him, so he just continued to sit there.
'This War will be one to remember!' Royce thought as he ignored the laughter of other dark guild members. He couldn't retaliate to their insults. 'They would snap me like a twig.' Royce thought as he walked out the guild.
'Fairy Tail, Huh?' Thought the guild master of Twisted Thorn.
"They Can Have Their War!" He shouted into a dark room. It appeared to be larger than the Fairy Tail guild hall. Hundreds, maybe thousands cheer after the master of this terrifying dark guild made his announcement. Throughout the room red eyes could be seen, The eyes of a dark wizard army.
"AHH!" Kori jumped out of bed. 'What was that I saw?' He was processing what he had just seen as a familiar voice spoke.
"Good Morning, Kori and Comet." Erza was sitting in a chair next to the bed.
"Is it normal to wake up and find you watching me sleep?" He smiled, expecting a good reaction. "What...NO!" She punched him in the face sending both him and Comet through the wall. He landed in the center of the guild hall. "Why was I sent flying?" Comet yelled across the guild. "Because your friend there is an idiot!" She shouted. Kori slowly sat up after being sent flying.
"Takes one to know one."
"What was that, Kori?" Erza slowly walked towards the two. "...Nothing..."
"Erza?" Kori looked up with a smirk on his face. "Yes?" The rest of the guild's eyes widened at Kori's next, and what they thought to be his final words. "Seems your punches are getting weaker in your old age." She gave him some time to regret what he said.
"He's Dead." Bisca confirmed. Macao and Wakaba nodded in agreement. Before Erza could punish Kori for what he said everyone stopped what they were doing. "They're here..." Alzack muttered Everyone but Kori and Comet shook their heads. "Who's here?" Kori was curious as he felt an immense magical power coming from what seemed 4 wizards.
"Fairy Tail's Current Strongest Team." Erza told him, still too shocked to say anything more.
The Terrain Four had arrived.
'Just in time for this war against Twisted Thorn!' Erza realized and sighed with relief. She walked towards the door to greet them before they enter. Kori looked around and notice everyone was trembling in fear. 'Was there someone in Fairy Tail that powerful?' He became curious, as did Comet who was resting on his right shoulder, above his guild mark. Macao walked up beside Kori.
"All four of them are on par with the first four wizards of the ten wizard saints." Kori's mouth dropped in shock upon hearing this.
The doors burst open and four people who looked around Erza and Kori's age walked in. "We're Home!" All four of them announced at once. The wizard all the way to the left had long green hair and wore a green dress similar to the ones Mirajane used to wear. The dress reached to her knees so it's more fit for combat. She wore brown leather knee high boots. She had light brown eyes and was about the height of Erza. "We have a newcomer it seems." She told the other three wizards.
'I forgot they haven't met Kori.' Erza thought. She pulled Kori into a one armed hug and introduced him to the team. "This is Kori, Fairy Tail's ace, the Ice Dragon Slayer, and his partner, Comet. As you can tell Comet is an exceed." The green haired wizard answered after first examining the white haired dragon slayer.
"My name is Liz, and I use Plant Magic, Nice to meet you, Kori, and Comet." The exceed hid behind Kori after noticing Liz staring at him.
" I am Faust, and I use Storm and Sky Magic." Faust was about Kori's height and had golden hair in the same style Alzack has his. He wore a white long sleeved jacket. His jet black pants reached midway down his shin. He wore tan sandals along with it. His eyes were light blue as the sky would be. "I hope you are as good as the rumors say you are, Kori." Faust finished and a women who seems to be the leader introduced herself.
"My name is Karen, Leader of the Terrain Four, I use Magma Magic. She had jet black hair reaching down to the middle of her back. 'I've never seen hair like that before.' Kori was speechless as he looked at Karen. She wore a purple colored kimono with white flowers spread out on the outfit. She had received it from Erza a year ago. 'She looks better than me in that' Erza thought as she looked at the leader of the team. She also wore knee high boots, but hers were the color of her kimono. She had brown eyes more attractive than anyone's Kori had ever seen.
"I've heard a lot about you, Sixth Wizard Saint." She finished.
'So they know.' Both Kori and Erza thought.
"I am Renn, The Ocean Magic user, the strongest form of water magic." He had Blue hair that was the length of Romeos hair, but Renn's hair covers his eyes and forehead more. He wore an open dark blue vest along with black pants that reach right below his knees. He had Turquoise eyes that remind Kori of the ocean. 'Each one of them have an immense magic power.'
"Master Erza?" Karen focused on Erza as she said the master's name. 'What is it, I wonder?' Kori thought.
"We would like to speak with you and Kori in your office." Erza nodded and motioned for Kori to follow. 'Guess i have to go then.' He turned to Comet "Buddy wait out here with Bisca for me." Bisca pulled Comet in for a hug as Kori Followed the others.
'Karen, Faust, Liz, and Renn. All on par with the first four Wizard Saints. I wonder if the would ever spar with me.' He grinned as he entered Erza's office along with the Terrain Four.
"Master Erza we have already been scouting the dark guild Twisted Thorn for a while. We learned they have a Team of four wizards equally as strong as us, if not stronger. That is without the Master and Ace." Liz informed Erza.
'This war will be extremely tough then.' Erza shook her head. ' This wasn't the best idea we've ever had. Although I can't stand by and watch Twisted Thorn to hurt Fairy Tail wizards.' She remembered seeing Kori collapse and cringed at the thought of it.
"Will you four join us in this war between guilds?" Erza asked.
"Yes." They all replied in unison. "How will we attack them?" Renn asked.
"I say we knock down the front door and take them by storm." Kori suggested. Faust grinned at him. He then looked to Erza. "I Agree with Popsicle." Erza looked at the two of them and shook her head. "What did you call me Bird Breath?" The two butted heads until Erza separated them "You two are just like my generation, you know that?" She said thinking of Natsu and Gray.
"I guess it's settled then." Erza noticed this caught the attention of the five wizards. She continued as they awaited her to finish.
"In two days we will take them by storm! Twisted Thorn will fall to the hands of Fairy Tail, The Mightiest Guild In Fiore!"
