As Kyoya arrives back at the hotel room he notices two people at the check in desk, one with a short white yukata and light blue hair, the other a black haired man with a white polo shirt that was torn and ripped. Normally he wouldn't think twice about it, but when he looked at them he noticed the Lions Mane guild mark. He walks over to them to hear what they want.
"Did a man by the name of Quatra Mikazuchi check in?" The man with black hair says with a serious tone as he stared down the women behind the desk.
"Nalien calm down" the blue haired girl says while grabbing his arm.
"Misha calming down is something I can't do right now." Nalien says as still staring at the women behind the desk who has started to retreat in fear. "Is Quatra here or not?"
"What do you need with Quatra?" Asks a voice from behind the pair. "Cause I see you're from the same guild as him."
Nalien and Misha turn around to face the owner of the voice. "Who are you?" Nalien asks slightly irritated.
"Kyoya Mikazuchi, pleasure." He says with a smirk as he holds out his hand. Misha being the calmer of the two decides to be the voice.
"Well my name is Misha, and his name is Nalien." She says with a smile as she shakes his hand in return. "You wouldn't happen to know where Quatra is, now would you? We need to talk to him."
"Quatra's busy at the moment." Kyoya says with a laugh causing Nalien to grab him by his collar in frustration.
"We don't have time for this, where is Quatra?" he says inches from Kyoya's face.
"you should probably let me go" Kyoya says his face getting serious as he reaches for the zanbato on his back. "If not your bad day is just gonna get worse." Nalien lets him go and backs up a step but doesn't break his gaze.
"Just answer the damn question." he says in a low tone.
"Nalien calm down." Misha says trying to intervene by stepping in front of Nalien, but he pushes her out of the way.
"Listen to the girl before you get hurt." Kyoya says hand still on his zanbato's handle.
"Kyoya!" yells a voice from the elevator. Everyone turns to look at the owner of the voice and are surprised to find Leiko with a look of minor annoyance on her face as her arms are crossed.
"Yeah what's up?" Kyoya says not noticing the look on her face. Leiko walks across the lobby and right up to Kyoya.
"Why are you picking a fight with my friends?" Leiko asked quietly.
"The boy started it."
"You mean Nalien picked a fight with you?" Leiko asked with an eyebrow raised showing signs of disbelief. "Nalien's stupid but he's a different kind of stupid than that."
"I am right here Leiko." Nalien says still irritated. Misha seeing how all of this is getting us nowhere decides to cut in.
"Leiko we need to talk." Misha says as she walks up next to Leiko. "Where is Quatra?"
"I don't know, he was with Kyoya." Leiko says as she shrugs her shoulders. Leiko then notices the shape of the clothes that Misha and Nalien are wearing. "What happened?"
Misha looks down to the ground in frustration as she holds back tears. "What I have to tell you is not easy to say right now." Misha then looks up at Leiko. "Mastodon attacked the guild and ambushed a bunch of our mages. Sahara was a Mastodon spy. She waited until the best fighters were gone, then led a charge against our guild that wiped half of the mages out in ten minutes. If Tushika and I hadn't shown up when we did the body count would be worse then what it is." Nalien took over after seeing Misha in tears.
"When I got back to the guild it was in ruins. Misha was fighting Sahara and Tushika was fighting some guy made of metal with gray pants and a black turtleneck. Both Misha and Tushika were losing so Aquilla jumped in to help Misha, and I went in to fight with Tushika." Nalien says with a look of frustration. "I have never seen Tushika in such bad shape, so I got upset and lost my cool. I didn't even last two minutes against the monster before I was knocked out cold. When I came to, Tushika was tied to a pole and knocking on deaths door. Aquilla was not in much better condition as she was tied to the other side. Misha was also on her last leg but she continued to heal Tushika and Aquilla. After Misha gave emergency first aid she told me that we needed to find you because Mastodon has a hit out on all of the S class."
"Did you say gray pants and a black turtleneck?" Kyoya says. "did he have an almost shaved head and a stone cold gaze?"
"Yea that is one thing I won't forget." Nalien says as he clenches his fist and bites his lip.
"Oh shit"
Meanwhile Quatra has been getting dominated by Daze. Anytime Quatra had a opening he took it but as soon as he swung his sword it was like the sword was cutting metal. He never had anytime to think because Daze was always coming. Quatra had him in speed but how can a swordsman beat a person he can't cut. Quatra had another opening, he swings and hits the throat this time he knows he hit metal. He backs up to regroup and gets caught by his hoodie and pulled up in the air.
"Quatra" a group of people all yell at the same time alerting Quatra that he now had an audience.
"Fantastic" Quatra says to himself as he uses a gravity aided kick to the metal man's arm that caused Daze to drop him. "That was the first thing that I have done to the metallic bastard that worked. I wonder..." Quatra thinks. He then sheaths his sword and tosses it to the side. Then charges at Daze with a fist cocked back and with the aid of his magic energy as well as his control over gravity he delivers his strongest punch to Daze's chin causing Daze to fly back into the bar making another hole in the wall.
"Get up" Quatra says as he walks into the bar through the hole in the wall favoring his hand that had blood dripping from it. "I'll show you just how outclassed you are."
Leiko, Misha, Nalien and Kyoya were all in the front of the crowd watching Quatra take control of the fight. While Leiko was enjoying the sights, Kyoya realized that this was a little too easy for someone who helped destroy a mages guild and slaughtered half of its members.
"This is too easy." Kyoya said to Nalien who immediately agrees with him.
"When I fought the bastard he was fully covered in metal and he had some damn good stamina." Nalien says. Leiko hearing this comes over and asks Kyoya for his hand wraps.
"Why?" Kyoya asks Leiko with a raised eyebrow.
"Quatra's hand is broken and bleeding badly. He needs some type of protection if he is gonna fight." Kyoya gives in and hands Leiko the hand wraps and she immediately walks over to Quatra.
"You hangin in there?" Leiko asks Quatra as he is holding his hand.
"Hn" Quatra says with a groan. Leiko immediately walks in front of him, successfully blocking his view of Daze.
"Hold out your hand." Leiko says sternly.
"Tch"
"Did you just "Tch" me Quatra. Look dumbass, your hand is broken and I know you know it needs to be looked at. So give me your...DAMN...HAND" Leiko yells not in the mood for Quatra's pride.
"Leiko" Quatra thinks to himself as he looks at her but his attention get drawn back to Daze as he stands up. As Daze stands, he looks right at Quatra and releases a lot of energy. "I guess the warmup is over."
Daze then turns his entire body metal as he stares down the sword less samurai in front of him. Without warning he charges straight at Quatra who moves Leiko out of the way and back peddles to keep the distance. But as Quatra hits the wall behind him, Kyoya blocks Daze's progress with a well placed swing of his zanbato that caused the metal man to stop in his tracks for a moment.
"Kyoya what are you doing?" Quatra asks as Kyoya who is focused on the metallic nightmare in front of him.
"Quatra are you gonna abandon your pride as a swordsman?" Kyoya asked as Daze started his attack again. Daze hits Kyoya's zanbato with his fist and punches a whole through the broad side of the sword. As Daze tries to pull his arm out of the sword, Kyoya grabs his wrist to prevent him from moving as he shoves the sword into the ground.
When Quatra realizes Kyoya's plan, he makes the gravity around Kyoya's sword as heavy as possible creating a guillotine effect that traps Daze's arm in between the ground and the other half of the blade. Assuming that they have him trapped Quatra walks back over to Leiko who had walked back out of the bar and holds out his hand for her.
"Here" Quatra says holding out his broken hand. Leiko takes the hand and begins to wrap the hand up for him.
"See much better." Leiko looks at him with a smile. Misha then walks over and hands Quatra his sword.
"You're gonna need this." Misha says while handing him his blade which Quatra graciously accepts. Quatra then turns to look at the trapped metal man but when he looked at the Kyoya's sword Daze was gone.
Quatra then begins to scan the area fast to find the metal man. Quatra finds him a second too late as a metal hand can now be seen through Nalien's torso as Daze is now behind him with his eyes closed as if focusing on something in his head.
"Mission Altered" Daze says as he opens his eyes. He then looks at all of the mages in front of him. "Kill all Lions Mane mages and anyone that gets in the way."
"Nalien!" Misha and Leiko shout with tears in their eyes as the watch Daze pull his hand out of Nalien causing him to fall face first on the ground. Quatra stands there in shock at what he just saw and begins to shake uncontrollably, attempting to control his emotions. In the confusion Daze goes after Misha and delivers a metal fist to her face causing Misha to fly out of the alley and land in the middle of the road. As Misha lands she rolls until she comes to a complete stop in the middle of the road.
"I'm gonna kill you!" Leiko screams as she gets ready to charge at the metal man in front of her. As she runs she brings out her sword and swings it at Daze only for it to break as soon as it makes contact with his skin. Leiko then backs away for a second and summons Hells Circle under Daze to hold him in place. She then summons 20 skeleton knights and 20 skeleton samurai and swarms all of them at him at one time. As her skeletons attack, Kyoya grabs his sword and also swarms from the other side.
"Hells Transformation level 2" Leiko screams as a reddish purple tornado surrounds her releasing a lot of magic energy. When she emerges from the reddish purple cloud Leiko now has bright red hair with purple lines going down her face from her eyes and her eyeballs are completely black. She then sends a bright red blast out of her hand that hits Daze along with her skeletons and Kyoya. Her skeletons are disintegrated and Kyoya is sent flying into the wall behind him but Daze continues to stand as if nothing hit him at all.
Leiko starts firing off multiple blast of the same magnitude at Daze. Misha who just managed to stand back up lets off the biggest roar possible at the metal man as well. Due to her being so exhausted she collapses right after. As the blasts make contact Daze continues to stand there and take the blast like nothing frustrating Leiko.
"What the fuck are you?!" she yells as she continues to fire at him. Daze finally moves as he charges through Leiko's blasts, grabs her face and drives her into the wall. He then drags her face along the wall and throws her out into the street next to Misha. Daze then starts slowly walking towards her.
"I can't win" Leiko says quietly as she tries standing up. "I'm gonna die." Leiko then sees Daze charging at her and closes her eyes to prepare for the blow to come. Daze grabs Leiko and lifts her up by her hair before delivering a metal knee to her midsection followed by a knee to the face causing Leiko to fall limp as she continues to hang by her hair. Daze lets her go and looks for Quatra but he is nowhere to be found.
"Where did the samurai..." Daze begins to say but is interrupted by a demented laugh from behind him.
"Great show, Great show." Quatra says with a demented laugh as he claps his hands. His appearance has changed, he now has a second black stripe and his eyes are gold. "But to be honest I think that you should have hit her in the scruff to make it more effective and brutal."
"The scruff?" Daze asked confused. "What is that?"
"You know, the scruff." Quatra says while hinting at what a scruff is further confusing Daze "Well if you don't know then you are a loooooser."
"What the hell is going on? you can't be Quatra?" Daze asks while scratching his head.
"Right you are" Quatra says with a crooked smile. "The body is...well mine now...but the mind has always belonged to me. But I do owe you thanks, if you didn't kill the other boy I would still be stuck in his mind. Now I'm free so to that I say thank you." he finishes with a bow.
Kyoya who had just woken up sees Quatra's appearance and thinks back to what Quatra told him two years ago.
"I have to kill Ryoga." Kyoya says as he stands up to grab his sword. He then charges right at his brother to take his head off. He takes a swing and the zanbato is caught by the fingertips by Quatra.
"Nice try but no luck" Quatra says with a playful frown. "as much as I hate to kill my family that is gonna be the only way to get you out of my hair." he says as he breaks the entire zanbato with his fingertips. He then draws his sword and cuts Kyoya down the midsection causing Kyoya to fall to a knee as he holds the cut.
"Damn you Ryoga!" he groans in pain as his vision gets blurry.
"That's my name don't wear it out. But I guess you need to remember the name of the guy who sent you to hell." Quatra says as he twirls the blade around. He then stops twirling the blade and stabs Kyoya the the midsection pinning him to the ground. He then grabs the broken zanbato by its handle and stands over him. "Goodbye Kyoya. I'll see you in hell."
Kyoya still struggling decides to say one more thing. "Quatra will regain control of his body. Just you wait jackass." he finishes while using the last of his strength to flip off Ryoga.
"We shall see Kyoya." Quatra says as he lifts the zanbato in the air. He then brings it down on his neck decapitating his brother. "We shall see."
Daze the entire time is watching this unfold in front of him and decides to leave and return back to Mastodon. Quatra sees him leaving and decides to speak.
"Aren't you gonna try to kill me" Quatra says with a crooked smile. "I mean it's not like you can but it might be fun."
"I was sent to fight and kill Quatra Mikazuchi." Daze says as he walks away. "to the best of my knowledge Quatra Mikazuchi is dead so a fight with whoever you are would be pointless."
Quatra watches him walk away until he decides that leaving is a better idea so he walks away leaving the carnage behind.
A little while after Quatra walks away, Misha wakes up and sees everyone laid out. Leiko and Nalien need medical attention and fast our they will die. She tries to stand but cant so she crawls over to Nalien and starts performing emergency first aid. After she finishes with Nalien she crawls back over to Leiko and does the same thing but halfway through her vision gets blurry and she falls over next to Leiko. As she passes out she hears voices and people walking towards her put she can't see who it is.
"It's okay just rest we will take care of everyone." An elderly females voice says in a kind tone. Misha follows the order and passes out.
Misha wakes up in a bed with white linen on the bed and flowers on the nightstand next to her. She sits up and looks around to find Nalien and Leiko asleep in beds around her. She also sees a little boy sitting next to her asleep.
"Where are we?" Misha asks out loud while holding on to her head. She then hears Master Crowne's voice in her head.
"You are in Fairy Tail's infirmary" Master Crowne says.
"Master...Where are you?" Misha asked confused.
"I'm currently upstairs talking with Fairy Tail's guild master I'll be down in a little bit."
"Master...how long have I been out?" Misha asks but receives no answer.
After ten minutes of sitting there waiting, an elderly woman walks in to check up and notices she is awake.
"How do you feel young one?" She asks with a kind and gentle smile as she walks over to Misha.
"I feel fine" Misha says with a smile in return. "are they okay?" she asks while pointing at her two friends.
"Why don't you ask them when they wake up, it should be soon." The elderly women with gray hair and a dark blue kimono says. Then she thinks about something. "Young one...are you a sky dragon slayer?"
"Yep" Misha says with a smile as she looks at the women who looked really familiar now.
"Can I tell you a secret." The women asks as she signals for Misha to come closer. "I am too."
"Really?!" Misha asks with a mixture of happiness and curiosity. "What is your name? It's rare to meet the same type of dragon slayer."
"Wendy" the elderly women says causing Misha to shout with disbelief.
"Wendy Marvell...Oh My God I was healed by the Wendy Marvell."
"Calm down little one I'm no celebrity" Wendy says trying to calm Misha down.
"Yeah Misha calm down." Leiko says as she wakes up holding her face.
"Leiko do you know who this is?" Misha asks still extremely excited.
"Yeah it's "Wendy Marvell"" Leiko says mocking Misha. She then looks around. "Where are Quatra and Kyoya?"
"I don't know I just woke up myself." Misha says calming down. "Do you know where they are Wendy?"
"No but I'm sure that Zachery knows what happened." Wendy says pointing at the sleeping boy next to Misha " He saw everything and came to get us."
Just as Zachery's name is mentioned he wakes up and sees the girl next to him is awake.
"Are you okay?" Zach asks Misha who turns to look at him.
"I'm fine, thanks..." Misha starts but get cut off by a hug from Zach.
"Thank goodness I was worried that because I didn't help fight that you would die like the other guy." he says while crying in her chest.
"That's alright you did the right thing in your situation." Misha says while rubbing his dark green hair.
"Wait, what other guy?" Leiko asks from across the room. Zach turns around and looks at her.
"The other guy with the long brown hair and the red shirt."
"Kyoya's dead" Leiko asks with tears starting to well up in her eyes. "There was another guy with us he had shorter brown hair and a white hoodie. What happened to him?"
"That was the guy that killed the other guy." Zach said causing silence in the room.
"Leiko, are you..."
"He's Lying!" Leiko shouts interrupting Misha.
"Leiko, calm down."
"No Misha, Quatra wouldn't kill his own brother under any circumstance. I know him too damn well than to have some kid tell me some shit like this."
"Leiko was it?" Wendy says trying to calm Leiko down. "I assure you that Zachery wouldn't lie about something like that. That being said I think that you are letting your feelings for that boy cloud your judgment."
"But Quatra wouldn't do that to his brother." Leiko says as the welled up tears start to fall. "He just wouldn't."
Wendy walks over and sits down next to Leiko and puts her arm around her. "You love that boy don't you?" Leiko nods her head as she starts to cry on her shoulder. As she is crying Master Crowne walks in with another elderly woman who is wearing a white button up and dark blue jeans with gray hair.
"Wendy, what is going on?" The elderly women asked Wendy after seeing a girl crying in her arms.
"Well this girl is having a tough time coping with some bad news. I figure letting her cry it out would help." Wendy replies while still holding on to the crying girl.
"Then what I have to say next isn't gonna help matters." Master Crowne says with a deep sigh.
"What do you mean" Misha says from her bed.
"From this day forward Quatra is stripped of his S class status and expelled from Lions Mane." Master Crowne says.
"You can't do that!" Leiko yells as she stands up from the bed and gets in his face. "There is something wrong with him and Lions Mane is probably the best thing for him right now."
"I have to agree with Leiko" Misha says as she stands up from her bed to face Crowne as well. "Quatra is obviously not himself right now and he needs people there to help him return back to normal."
"Be that as it may, Quatra is a threat. Which is why your next mission is to find and kill Quatra Mikazuchi."
"I refuse" Leiko says instantly. "I will find him but I will not kill him."
"Then remove your stigmata." Crowne says calmly. "I will not have someone in my guild who cannot follow a direct order."
