An ldeal World
The Chappie is out, I got some heat for making other people try to save Obito so I have made some amendments. I apologise in advance as some of the Magic Spells don't have their Japanese names as they weren't stated on the wiki or any other website that I know of. By the way, after the Jackal fight, things get pretty boring since I pretty much copied from Canon so you can stop reading after the Jackal fight! This is also the longest chapter ever to exist! Seven thousand words! Also, soon to be 100 follows on this story so I can't wait for that!

Obito was paralysed in fear. Not only was he already weakened considerably, the energy coming of the man was crazy.
"You're definitely dead now…" Axel spoke from the other side of the room. "Nobody can stand up to Master Jackal." Axel told Obito as the Jackal person grinned, showing his sharp teeth.
"Oh, what do we have here? My former guard and some random weakling." Jackal spoke walking past the Uchiha and towards Axel. He stopped a few inches away from Axel. "I have no need for you anymore in this state." Jackal told Axel before a light yellow energy orb appeared on Jackal's palm. Jackal then shot it at Axel, creating a moderate-sized explosion that killed Axel. It was a heartless act that surprised even Obito. The shinobi was used to seeing deaths but in the Elemental Nations, one wouldn't even think about doing that to their own comrade. Jackal then turned around and glared at Obito with a grin still visible on his face. "And now… what should I do with you?" Obito widened his eyes as a dawn of realisation hit his face as he now had to somehow defend himself against a monster while already weakened. Jackal suddenly shot a sphere of energy at the former jinchuuriki who had already moved out of the way. The attack hit the floor and created a rather large explosion for its size. The blonde had already ran up to where Obito dodged and kicked him on the bridge of his nose knocking him back a few inches. The Sharingan wielder stood up in a swift motion as he saw Jackal preparing another orb of energy that was eventually going to be shot at him. "Chakra recovery is much slower here but I'll have to risk it all if I want to see another day." Obito thought as he swiftly went through some hand seals.
"Katon: Ketatamashi Makia! (Fire Style: Piercing Hellstrike)" By using both hands instead of just one hand for the jutsu , Obito turned the normal 'Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu (Fire Style: Grand Fireball Technique)' into a thin compressed spear composed of scorching flames. He then grabbed the spear from his mouth and retracted his hand which had the spear in it. He then extended his hand while releasing his grip on the spear making it fly towards the master of the guild, trying to impale his body. Jackal saw the move head first and dodged with no effort but the heat radiating from the spear was so tremendous that it caused Jackal to lose his breath. The black haired man saw this as an opening that he could take advantage of and lunged at his opponent. His opponent seemed to take pleasure out of this moment thought. Obito connected his fist onto the cheek of the animal-resembler, fully driving his fist all the way through in the punch making him crash into a nearby table and smashing it to pieces.

"I let you off the first time I made contact with you but to be honest, I just love people going…" Jackal's voice spoke, his voice trailing off towards the end of sentence. Suddenly the exact fist that the shinobi landed a punch with lighted up in a bright yellow that could be mistaken as white. BOOM! Even though his hand was somehow still in tact, his fist had just exploded paining him. The sound the explosion made seemed to have finished off the incompleted sentence that had just been said.

"What the hell just happened to my hand? I'm surprised it's still in one piece. But it's something to do with making contact with him right? I've got plenty of other tricks up my arsenal." Obito thought while examining what had just happened. "Kaze Gyorai no Jutsu! (Wind Torpedo Technique)" The Fairy Tail member said gathering a large amount of wind into his lungs, he then exhaled his attack in a single blow. The wind formed a near to invisible torpedo that was launched towards his enemy. Upon contact, it exploded with extreme force, similar to the sphere of energy that Jackal shot at Obito. As the dust settled, the blonde's figure could be seen through the smoke that eventually revealed that he was unfazed from the attack. Obito clenched his fists and gritted his teeth at the same time in annoyance. The Uchiha was going to charge at the heartless man before he noticed marking on the floor below him in the corner of his eye.
"You noticed? You've got sharp reactions. I'm sure you can probably guess what it is due to my display of attacks before." Jackal teased Obito, still grinning like the sadist he was.
"What's he talking about? What could it be? An explosion of some sort? Wait, a landmine?" The ninja wondered. But whatever it was didn't concern him, he easily avoided the marking by teleporting behind the maker via the use of the Shunshin no Jutsu (Body Flicker Technique). Obito then tried to pierce through Jackal's skin from behind but the antagonist adjusted his body position to try and dodge but was too late to react meaning the Rinnegan user didn't hit the intended vital spot. "Heh, I'm surprised a ningen (human) has lasted this far with me," The blonde lightly chuckled. "But this is where the battle ends!" He then suddenly shouted clasping onto Obito's pole before the same marking as before appeared beneath both of the combatants.
End OST
The marking then shun brightly before an explosion occurred, just before the moment of impact, the black rod fully departed from the Uchiha's palm meaning he had a chance of escape but the Uchiha didn't even move a muscle. He was caught up in the explosion, or so Jackal thought. Obito was completely unscathed once the attack stopped making his opponent widen his eyes in shock. Jackal gritted his teeth and tried to hit the one formerly known as Tobi but this came to no avail. His kicks, hooks and jabs were all futile before the master combatant. "What are you?!" The Master growled, still wasting his energy on trying to hit Obito.
"A human, just like you said. Or more specifically…" The Uchiha spoke in a teasing tone as he materialised again and caught Jackal's fist that he was about to be punched with. He squeezed his fist tightly causing Jackal pain. "Your worst nightmare." Obito said darkly finishing his sentence off as he pumped chakra into his available right hand and pulled it back behind him. He then proceeded to punch Jackal with full force causing the receiver of the attack to fly all the way to the other side of the room before crashing into a table.

"You're a human you say?! DON'T FUCK WITH ME YOU MONSTER!" Jackal screamed in anger, he considered humans toys and didn't like such resistance from them.
"Coming from the guy who looks like a cat." Obito responded pointing out his cat ears, his small and black nose and his furry tail. This infuriated the blonde on another level.
"YOU'RE FUCKING DONE HUMAN! YOU FUCKED WITH THE WRONG DEMON!" The demon announced as he started to go through a serious transformation, not only to his appearance, but his power as well. His look changed into that of a beast with large muscles seen throughout his larger frame. His head changed into that of a canine, and if his teeth weren't sharp enough before, they enlarged to an even sharper shape as his nails did the same making him have fully black hands (or claws). His green tank top and baggy trousers instantly ripped but still protected his dignity. Hiis yellow and black scarf and garb on his waist. The hair on his head seemed to grow on every other part of his body making him gain fur. His tail grew bigger resembling that of a large beast. His eyes no longer had pupils in them as they took a more slanted shape. His tongue grew to a size of a small ruler and had animal-like legs. A six-pack was still visible on the demon's body. In whole, his body looked like that of a werewolf on steroids. The energy radiating off the new Jackal was insane, befitting of a demon.

The beast let out a deep growl before charging at a near invisible speed to the former Jinchuuriki. The Sharingan was only the only thing that kept Obito getting nailed by the punch Jackal tried to hit. He ducked under the punch and tried to uppercut the demon but this wasn't one of the shinobi's best ideas. Due to his bigger size, Jackal was much more stronger and durable than before. The monster tanked the uppercut with no problem and smashed Obito onto the floor with a double axe-handle. Jackal then tried to continue by stomping on the Uchiha but the protagonist had fast reactions and did a backwards roll to avoid the demon's feet. "I guess physical contact is a no-no. I'll have to rely on Jutsus." Obito mused. As soon as Obito thought about that, the hand he had made contact with exploded causing him pain and anguish. "Looks like he still retained his explosion powers." Obito noted. "But I should really retreat, at this rate, with the slower chakra recovery, my moves will be a lot weaker and sluggish." The Fairy Tail member slid his feet to the side a bit but was not expecting Jackal to suddenly lunge at him, Obito was forced into a defensive position in the fight and was constantly being pushed back. He eventually collided with the wall and nearly got caught by the demon's ferocious punches. The punch left a huge dent in the wall even though it was aiming for the former ten tails Jinchuuriki who had slipped through his body and was running towards the exit. The monster tried to stop Obito in his tracks with the orbs of energy that he could shoot at will. The orbs of energy were double the size of before and were shot at the fleeing combatant but the orbs narrowly missed the Uchiha who constantly swerved out of the way and created large explosions, you'd think that they were in a warzone by the amount of explosions. Obito went smashed through the door, not bothering to open it, and tried to flee into the nearby forest until he heard a mighty roar coming from the building. It was obviously from Jackal but he still turned around out of interest. The building suddenly exploded and shattered into pieces, and the pieces were burnt to ash. Even the dead Axel was caught in the blast and was decimated by it. The sound of the explosion could be heard echoing miles away from their current spot.
End OST
"This guy is probably drowning in anger and won't stop his rampage until he kills me meaning he'll destroy everything in his way." Obito analysed. "In order to stop that, I'll need to defeat him no matter how much it hurts me." Obito concluded. "And anyways, I do need to atone for my sins."

Obito smirked as he stared down the beast in front of him. As soon as Jackal sprinted towards Obito, the Uchiha did the same. The demon tried to punch him but Obito jumped over him. While in mid-air, Obito had completed a set of hand seals in a swift motion and by the time he landed, he had finished them. "Katon: Gōka Messhitsu! (Fire Style: Great Fire Destruction)" The Uchiha internally shouted as a rapid and massive stream of flames burst from his mouth and engulfed the demon. As the attack gradually came to an end, Jackal could be seen with his hands (or claws) to his face. The beast blocked most of the attack with a few burn marks here and there. The former human-looking demon shot an explosion orb at Obito but it went straight through him again. The black haired man was going through more seals at an astonishing pace as his opponent ran towards him again. It was a race against time to finish the hand seals before Jackal arrived but Obito pulled through and completed his hand seals before the demon could even touch him.
"Doton: Doryūdan no Jutsu! (Earth Style: Earth Dragon Blast)" "Katon: Karyū Endan (Fire Style: Fire Dragon Blast)" Two dragon heads popped out of the ground and shot out their respective their respective elements in a stream, the mud and fire merged into a flamethrower with mud swirling around it, the move was about to collide into Jackal until he he made a large bomb orb that he shot at the move. This created a huge explosion that was paired with a huge smoke cloud. The Uchiha's Sharingan couldn't see through the smoke so all he could do was prepare for the inevitable, a head-on attack from the beast. But after a few seconds, the attack didn't come. Obito took the risk of going in for a blind attack. As soon as the shinobi rushed into the smoke, he was punched into the ground. "The hell? Where did that attack come-" Obito was suddenly punched in the stomach again and lost his breath. He was then continuously kicked and punched on all the parts of his body but mostly the face and the legs for around five minutes straight. He could barely make out the beastly figure of Jackal. The smoke finally cleared as he saw Jackal preparing a bomb orb similar to the size of Obito's fireballs. The Sharingan user scrambled up to his feet in a swift motion before speeding towards Jackal. A pole slid out of the palm of his hand again before he stabbed it in the demon's chest stopping his attack which dissipated into thin air. Jackal slowly reverted back to his human form in pain. Once his transformation had completely, his face had turned into that of an evil scheming grin rather than one in pain.
End OST
"Checkmate." The demon informed the ninja even with the pole still piercing his body.
"Are you referring to yourself?" Obito questioned.
"No… I'm referring to you." Jackal responded with a sly grin on his face. Obito suddenly had a bad feeling in his stomach. He swiftly looked towards the ground, his eyes locked onto the landmine markings on the floor but these marking were of a much wider scale. It would destroy the nearby area as well as a large part of the forest as well. Obito could just escape it like last time, or so he thought.
"REMEMBER ME IN HELL BITCH!" Jackal thundered as the markings started to light up, the ground started to shake as well.
"You're too naïve. You can't catch me with the same move twice." Obito told Jackal as the pole separated from Obito once again as he tried to make his escape.
"No… you're naïve thinking I'd do the same move again!" The demon snapped. "Say hello to my endless explosion! This bomb won't stop unless I command it to!" Jackal explained.
"Did this guy forget I could teleport?" Obito thought as he tried to teleport away.
"Where do you think you're going?" Jackal asked as he snapped his fingers, suddenly five different parts of Obito's body exploded simultaneously. His body was still in tact but his clothes were in tatters (even though that is how they were at the beginning of the battle). "Did you forget I punched like over one-hundred times? There's no chance of escape!" Jackal laughed.
"I've got to hand it to him, in the space of one battle, he made such a technique to counter my abilities. This guy would be a hassle to face again in the future." Obito confessed as he tried to teleport again but another explosion occurred on his body stopping him from teleporting away. Obito could feel energy coming out of the ground, the explosion was going to take place any moment now. The ninja sighed. "I didn't even get to atone for my sins… what was the whole point in sending me? Wait, I've got Izanagi… but I'd rather go to Rin… but I'd probably be sent to hell… I've already made friends here… and I can't abandon them!" Obito mused. "Izana-"
"Obito!" The familiar voice of the attractive female mage, Cana, rang through Obito's ears. Obito stopped activating his Jutsu and looked up into the sky to see Cana in the air, being carried by Mirajane in her Satan Sōru form. "Pokketo Dimenshon! (Pocket Dimension)" Cana shouted throwing a card at Obito. Obito was then sucked into and trapped in it. Cana and Mirajane then swooped down collecting the card before making their escape. This was not unnoticed by Jackal but he used all his power in making the landmine and the pain shooting throughout his body was too much to handle."Oh well, maybe I'll kill him another day." Jackal sighed before the bomb exploded creating a large explosion that could probably be heard throughout Fiore. The trio managed to escape successfully as they headed back to the guild in order to get Obito to safety. The Uchiha couldn't help but thank his saviours otherwise he would've lost an eye.
Back At The Guild
The Master was waiting anxiously for Mirajane's and Cana's arrival. He hoped Obito would be with them too. It was already late in the night. The guild's doors opened and Makarov was about to run up to check who was it but it turned out to be an ordinary guild member. The Wizard Saint sighed as he got his hopes up for nothing. The guild's doors then suddenly burst open revealing a Satan Sōru Mirajane. Makarov rushed up to them as fast as he could. "Where's Obito?!" The old man anxiously inquired. Cana then revealed the card that Obito was sealed in to Makarov. He let out a sigh of relief but he knew he couldn't relax at this current moment. He could clearly see that Obito needed medical attention. "Mirajane, contact Porlyusica! Cana, take Obito to the infirmary and place him on a bed! Also, provide some basic first-aid by wrapping him up in bandages where his cuts and bruises are! If there are any major wounds, report it to me and I'll find a solution!" The Third Fairy Tail Guild Master ordered. The current guild members in the building had puzzled faces as they tried to figure the unfolding situation at hand. Cana rushed to the infirmary with Obito's card before placing it on a bed. The card then flashed before the ninja appeared on the bed. He had many scars and bruises on his body but they seemed to be self-healing. The brunette noticed this but didn't make a comment.
"Thanks…" Obito mumbled.
"What?" Cana asked not hearing Obito.
"Thanks…" Obito said louder so it was audible for the female mage. "I guess I've got to give you a present as a sign of appreciation." Obito sighed.
"You don't really have to…" Cana said blushing as she was embarrassed from the former jinchuuriki's gratitude.
"I've got two wise words…" Obito stated as he gestured the brunette to come closer. She leaned in closer, face to face with Obito. They could practically feel each other's breath. "Stop… drinking…" Obito advised her as he announced his words slowly with large pauses in between the two words. An awkward silence occurred as this wasn't what the attractive mage was expecting.
"Baka... (Idiot)" Cana mumbled under her breath while pulling away from Obito before leaving the room abruptly.
"Wait! Tell the other mage thank you as well!" Obito shouted as the alcoholic left the room. "All I did was tell her the truth…" Obito sighed shaking his head left and right. Around thirty minutes later, a tall elderly woman with bright pink hair walked in the room. The lady was surprised when she saw practically no signs of being in a fight in his body and the ones that she did see were already healing. Makarov walked in behind her.
"So is anything wrong with him?" Makarov asked worriedly.
"Fortunately, no. He's already healed for the most part so all he needs to do is recover his energy. A long nap is all he needs." Porlyusica explained. The Dreyar stopped tensing and relaxed his shoulders. "I'll take my leave now." Porlyusica announced as she left the room.
"Sorry Obito, I apologise for my blunder. I shall not make such a mistake again." Makarov apologised to the ninja.
"It's okay, but I didn't finish the mission… by the way, do demons actually exist?" Obito inquired.
"That's a hard question, they're very rare but some claim to have seen them." Makarov answered.
"Well, if that's the case, I also claim to have seen one. In fact, I fought one." The Uchiha notified the Guild Master. The elderly man widened his eyes at this information.
"What-" The Master began before he was cut off by an explosion on the outside. "We'll talk about this another time, for the time being, you stay here and rest up, the rest of the members can deal with what's going on outside." Makarov stated. Obito had no choice but to obey the Master's orders. The bright grey haired man then proceeded to leave the room at a brisk pace.
Meanwhile Outside Of The Guild On The Edge Of Magnolia
"Hai-Hai-Hai, run in fear of the artificial dragon I created!" Daphne cackled through her megaphone. The large piece of machinery resembled that of a dragon except it couldn't fly even though wings were clearly visible on it. Natsu, who was in the core of the machine, was the main source of power for the machine at the current moment due to his Metsuryū Mahō (Dragon Slayer Magic). Gray could be seen on the top of the head of the Dragonoid. Erza, Lucy, Wendy, Happy and Carla were the only members facing off the huge Dragonoid. Nobody else was there to assist them. Happy, Carla and Wendy filled Erza and Lucy in with the details as they all stared down Gray. The Ice Mage jumped down from the Dragonoid to a nearby roof.
"Gray! If you've really betrayed Fairy Tail, then you must have some reason!" The redhead stated while shouting at Gray.
"No reason." The teenager replied with a scowl on his face. "Nothin' like that."
"What?" Erza was surprised by his attitude, it was like this was a whole new Gray.
"Gray…" The Celestial Spirit Mage mumbled while worrying for her friend.
"Hai-Hai-Hai! And now all my research has come to fruition, and I have completed my Dragonoid! Shouldn't you people be singing my praises or something?" Daphne teased.
"Is that the voice of this Daphne person? Give us back Natsu at once!" Titania shouted in a demanding tone.
"Sorry, no can do." Daphne responded with food in her mouth. "I'm sure you realise that my Dragonoid here moves by sucking out Natsu Dragneel's powers. Until I've sucked out all that magic power, I ain't giving Natsu Dragneel back!" Daphne notified them.
"To a wizard, one's magic power is their very life!" Erza declared.
"Give back Natsu now!" Lucy commanded.
"So, what are we going to do? At this rate..." Happy asked as he worried for his best friend who was also his partner. Natsu was hearing all of the conversations that were happening between Daphne and his friends and was fueled with anger that he was being kept hostage.
"Screw this!" Natsu shouted as flames wrapped around his body before spreading in all directions in the container but the fire was quickly converted into power before he was electrocuted for his resistance.
"Hai-Hai-Hai, as long as you keep up the good work, we'll be fully charged in no time. Then, my Dragonoid will be operational for half an eternity!" Daphne announced.
"You want to get in her way? Just try it." Gray threatened. "Although, even with your powers combined, I highly doubt you can hold out long enough to see it fully charged." Gray grinned evilly as his bangs covered his eyes as he insulted his fellow members of the guild.
"Gray…" Erza muttered as her face showed a shared look of confusion and anger. Suddenly, Carla remembered something.
"I've heard of a dangerous, dragon-crazed wizard who was trying to create an artificial dragon." Carla announced.
"Is that you?" Wendy interrogated.
"Such slanderous rumours, so far from the truth. They should say 'the genius scientist Daphne succeeded in creating an artificial dragon.'" Daphne suggested.
"Artificial dragon?!" Natsu spoke as he recalled a memory from a few years ago. "Could it be… the egg remains I found back then?" Natsu mused.
"It was truly a long struggle for me to perfect it. It all started with the first step: Successfully hatching an artificial dragon from an egg. The city I lived was a perfect place to gather data, or so I thought. But the people who come from my city can all use Hidden, see. Unable to experiment on the city, I had no more use for it. I then punished the residents by permanently trapping them in their own magic and making them unable to dispel their magic. I also punished the incomplete Dragonoids who were unable to sense the people who had vanished with their hidden by making them fight each other to the death.
"Back then… when I went to that city…" The Fire Mage thought.
"After that I left the city. Ever since then, it became known as the 'City Without Sound'." Daphne stated. "I continued my research and it finally dawned on me, I need the power of a Doragon Sureiyā (Dragon Slayer) to activate the power of a Dragonoid. "Hai-Hai-Hai! Natsu Dragneel! Salamander! Keep working until you drop dead! For me, and my evil ambitions! GET FIRED UP!" The dark-haired woman yelled at the top of her lungs. Natsu's magic power was being forcefully taken away from him as the humongous Dragonoid started to move. Just with one leg moving a step, it caused a tremor and a huge dust cloud.
"What are you doing? That's dangerous!" The white cat squalled.
"Looks like it's not just big, it's also going to be incredibly tough!" Lucy pointed out.
"Aye…" Happy agreed as everybody was covering their eyes from the dust.
"You fiend!" The Fairy Queen roared out opening her eyes. "What are you planning by creating such a thing?"
"Hai-Hai-Hai. My great ambition is to complete the perfect Dragonoid. Even this is nothing more than a prototype. First up, we have to test its current ability! Test!" The female scientist shouted as she pressed down certain keys on her piano that controlled the Dragonoid. The Dragonoid brought one of its legs up and brought it back down again in hopes to stomp on Wendy and Lucy. The two mages scrambled out of the way to avoid being crushed. "Lower half's mobility is sub-par, I see. Hai-Hai, walking is impossible, say?" Daphne noticed as she couldn't get her Dragonoid to move forwards.
"She's trouble! She's really big trouble!" Lucy worried.
"Ooh, I know! She's what they call a mad scientist." The blue Exceed told the group.
"We must stop it somehow!" Scarlet informed the group. "But…"
"With Natsu-san on the inside, we can't just attack carelessly!" The Sky Dragon Slayer notified the group while finishing off Erza's sentence.
"Oh, does it really matter?" Carla asked in a rude manner.
"Carla!" Wendy scolded. As everybody was panicking, Erza turned her attention towards Gray who hadn't moved a muscle from the same position he was before.
"Gray… is this what you wished for?" The scarlet haired mage internally asked. The sound of screeching tires was heard, grabbing everyone's attention. A speeding Magic Vehicle was seen speeding towards Gray.
"Gray, you bastard!" Macao yelled as he was operating the Magic Vehicle.
"You've gone and done it this time!" Wakaba shouted from the window of the vehicle.
"As a man, I will bring you back to the guild!" Elfman informed Gray as he stood on the top of the vehicle with crossed arms. He then jumped towards Gray and punched him in the stomach knocking him unconscious."Don't think ill of me. This is Master's orders." The Take Over Mage told the unconscious Gray before jumping back on the Magic Vehicle.
"Our Master?" The Requip Mage asked running over towards Elfman, Macao and Wakaba.
"Yeah. Looks like he got word of Daphne." The purple haired man responded.
"He's decided to ask Gray how to get rid of that giant thing." His best friend added. And then the unthinkable happened. It's wings started to glow a light blue hue.
"Erza! Don't tell me…" Lucy shouted as the Dragonoid slowly started to ascend into the air via the use of jets. "It's flying!" The blonde shrieked finishing off her sentence. "
"Flying! That's so unfair!" Happy complained.
"Like you can complain." Lucy muttered pointing out that the cat had wings for himself. The Dragonoid started to soar over Magnolia.
"Lucy and the rest of you, return to the guild and get everyone mobilised. We'll protect Magnolia, everyone!" The Requip Mage informed the group.
"But what would happen to-" Lucy began before the knight drew her sword.
"I will stop that Dragonoid!" Erza firmly stated.
"Understood." Lucy reluctantly said before she and Wendy took an Exceed each and flew back to the guild.
"Gray, what could it be?" The warrioress mused as she got bored the roof of the Magic Vehicle that came to capture Gray.
"I will do all that I can." Erza thought put her life on the line for the sake of the guild. "You deal with Gray, okay?" Titania told Macao.
"Aye, sir!" The driver responded mimicking Happy.
"And you take care of Natsu 'kay?" Wakaba told Erza from inside the car.
"Your word as a man!" Elfman added.
"Leave him to me." Erza smiled with a triumphant 'hmph' heard.
"Stop!" The female mage then shouted at the Dragonoid as she did a large jump towards the flying piece of technology. She was then intercepted by another one of Daphne's artificial creatures, the lizardman.
"Kansō! (Requip)" Erza shouted as she requipped into her 'Kureha no Yoroi (Black Wing Armor)' to stop her falling to the ground. The lizardman copied her attributes and grew wings and wielded the same sword as the Requip mage.
"An artificial creature that mimics people's attributes?" The Mage muttered as she flew faster as the lizardman pursued her. She then stopped high in the sky with the moon directly behind her. "Even if you have the same attributes as I, you don't carry the same burdens!" Erza shouted as she slashed her sword at her pursuer, defeating it as it went back into its original form before puffing away.
"Hai-Hai-Hai, that's good for you." Daphne told the Fairy Tail member who was currently opposing her plans. Scarlet then landed on the immobile tail of the artificial dragon. "But how about this?" Daphne questioned as a group of five lizardmen blocked Erza's path. The Requip Mage widened her eyes at this because each lizardman had one of Erza's armors and swords/weapons. "You'll soon find out the power of my Lizardmen v 2.5! Titania, Erza Scarlet!" Daphne told the redhead. The S-Class Mage engaged in battle with the new and improved Lizardmen.
"Hai-Hai-Hai, what a fun city. I'm getting chills up my spine just thinking about how fun it'll be to pulverise it." Daphne giggled. "So sit there in your box seat and watch the fireworks! Assuming you have the strength to do that." The scientist teased.
"Damn it, I can't move…" Natsu thought.
"Natsu... Natsu, the Dragon Slayer…" A voice called out.
"That voice… I've heard it somewhere…" Natsu thought. He then remembered about the city he went to a few years back. "I thought it was a dream or something so I completely forgot." Natsu admitted. "Defeat the one who controls dragons… Damn it, so this is what they meant?" Natsu mused. "Well, I promised didn't I?" As fire started to emit from his body. Daphne widened her eyes when a beeping sound occurred in the Dragon's control room.
"Natsu Dragneel's powers have grown higher than my data! At this rate, my Dragonoid will go into overdrive!" Daphne worried.
"I won't lose!" Natsu yelled as his fire grew more and more out of control.
"Hai-Hai-Hai! At times like this, if I calmly and meticulously keep sucking up your magic at a reasonable pace, then everything will be okay!" Daphne spoke talking to herself as she pressed various keys on her piano. "Hai- Hai, excellent work. Thank you for the lovely magic power!" Daphne thanked Natsu as a chunk of his magic power was sucked out.
"Damn it… Give me a break here!" A weakened Natsu complained.
Meanwhile Back At The Guild
The Guild Hall was more busier than usual as it was serving for the safehouse of the city.
"We've got trouble!" Levy, a petite blue haired Fairy Tail Mage told Mirajane. "Elfman and the others came back but-" Mirajane didn't even let Levy finish her sentence before she ran outside to check the condition of her brother.
"Elfman!" Mirajane cried out as she ran to her hurt brother.
"Take Wakaba and Macao to the infirmary and see to them!" Cana ordered.
"Are you okay? What happened?" The bartender asked.
"Nee-chan… take it from here… Save Natsu." Elfman weakly begged.
"Okay, leave Natsu to me!" Mirajane told her younger brother. At that very moment, Elfman passed out of exhaustion worrying his sister.
"Elfman!" The white haired mage worried.
"I'll heal him with my Sky Magic!" Wendy announced as she ran up to Elfman. Cana gritted her teeth at the sight of this and stomped over to Gray.
"Oi Gray! You awake? Tell us what the hell's going on here?" The brunette beauty demanded. "If you don't I'll-"
"Please, stop!" Juvia, a skilled Water Mage of Fairy Tail begged Cana. "There is no way Gray-sama betrayed Fairy Tail!" Juvia told Cana, teary eyed while protecting her crush. "Juvia believes in him!" Juvia continued referring to herself in a third person. "No matter what people say, even if the whole turned against him, Juvia-"
"Enough, Juvia." Gray commanded stopping Juvia from saying anymore. "You're takin' me to Gramps right? I don't think we have time to kill." The Ice Mage commented.
"Follow me." Alzack, another Fairy Tail Mage who specialised in Guns Magic.
"We're making sure you don't try anything funny." His partner, Bisca informed Gray. She also uses Guns Magic and also utilises Requip.
"Gray-sama…" Juvia mumbled worrying for her crush. Wendy had just finished using her Sky Magic to heal Elfman.
"He should be fine now." Wendy notified the group before nearly passing out.
"Wendy!" Both Mirajane and Lucy shouted out simultaneously.
"I'm okay, I cure Wakaba-san and Macao-san soon, or…" Wendy began before she was cut off by her partner.
"Stop it! If you use any more Sky Magic, your life will be at risk!" Carla told Wendy opposing what the Sky Mage wanted to do.
"I don't care!" Wendy argued.
"Well, you should!" Carla told her.
"I want to help everyone! Then I can really be a member of Fairy Tail!" Wendy informed her partner with a determined look on her face.
"Sheesh, you're so stubborn." The White Exceed sighed giving up on changing her desires.
"Everyone, please work together and save Natsu!" Lucy shouted out a few seconds after the previous argument.

"Yeah. We all own Natsu, big time." Jet, (you can probably guess what guild he belongs to) admitted.
"Yeah, when we were beat up by Phantom…" Droy, a lean man who was in a team with Jet and Levy called Team Shadow Gear.
"He fought for us, then." Levy spoke finishing off Droy's sentence.
"Natsu gave me courage!" Macao's son, Romeo announced. "It's the same for everyone else right? This time we'll be the one's to save Natsu! All right, if we work together, we can save Natsu!" Romeo encouraged everybody.
"Aye, sir!" Everybody shouted in unison.
"Wait!" The familiar voice of Makarov demanded.
"Master…" Lucy muttered in surprise.
"Fairy Tail is a guild that lives and dies with Magnolia! Our first priority is to protect the city from being destroyed!" The Master declared.
"You want us to destroy that thing?" Lucy questioned in shock.
"But Natsu is inside it!" Happy argued.
"As Master of Fairy Tail, I order you to all: Use any means necessary to destroy the Dragonoid!" Makarov announced paying no heed to the disgusted looks he received. "What? He'll be fine! His body is built nice and sturdy." The Wizard Saint informed everybody.
Meanwhile On The Tail Of The Artificial Dragon
Erza was engaging in a handicapped battle against five Lizardmen who had copied one armor and sword each. This proved tough for Erza as these Lizardmen were no slouches.
"Natsu! Can you hear me, Natsu?" Erza asked loudly as she slashed at the Lizardman's Adamantine Shield. "You are not a wizard that would be done in by something like this!"
"Erza…" Natsu thought hearing her voice while inside the machine.
"We… are always like this. We communicated by fighting. If you hadn't been there, I would have already thrown away my life." Erza said aloud. "I can't lose to you!" Erza spoke turning her attention towards the direction of her current enemies as she requipped into in attire with no armor and just a bra that looked like it was composed of bandages covering her chest. It was accompanied with rather baggy red trousers with flames on the bottom of it. "No matter what! Natsu, I am going to bring you back with me!" Erza declared as all the Lizardmen charged at Erza. Erza lunged towards her enemies with two swords and continuously blocked with one sword and attacked with the other. She managed to break one of the Lizardman's weapons before they all puffed away for an unknown reason.
"Daphne!" The warrioress screamed in anger as she sprinted towards the control room.
"Oh, too bad. Time's up." Daphne muttered to herself evilly before the once immobile tail suddenly lowered making Erza fall backwards and desperately grab onto the tail. The Dragonoid started losing altitude before it finally landed in the town centre. The sudden impact of landing made the redhead lose grip and fall onto the floor, extremely hurt. Daphne started cackling like a maniac as the Dragonoid lifted its humongous legs up. "I'll stomp you flat, Erza Scarlet!" Daphne cackled as the feet descended towards the vulnerable Erza.
"Blast Bullet!"
"Stinger Shot!"
"Majikku Kādo Ekusupero-jon! (Magic Card Explosion)"
"Wōtā Suraisā! (Water Slicer)"
"Sando Supea! (Sand Spear)" A collection of Fairy Tail mages used their magic to hit the large machine, distracting and stopping the Dragonoid from crushing each and every bone in Titania's body.
In The Master's Office
"Looks like it's started…" Makarov uttered to himself. "Tell me why." He demanded.
"I'll take full responsibility." Gray stated though not looking at the Master directly.
"I said, TELL ME WHY? GRAY!" Makarov thundered unpleased with the response he received from Gray.
"Jiichan… Only Natsu can defeat that Dragonoid." Gray finally spoke after a while but Makarov still wasn't satisfied with his answer. "I heard a rumour while out on a job, that someone was trying to create an artificial dragon. That's how it started." Gray answered.
"And that's when you had this secret rendezvous with this fool?" The Master asked with his arms crossed his arms, looking at the Ice Mage intently.
"She said that she was gonna capture Natsu and use him as the dragon's power source." Gray told the interrogator as he clenched his fists. "And during the meeting, I don't think she realised it then but she told me something that I thought was important. Once it starts, the only way to stop the Dragonoid is from a dragon slayer to attack it from the inside." The teen explained.
"But if you hadn't handed Natsu over, that monstrosity wouldn't have been able to activate, correct?" Makarov presumed.
"No, that wasn't the only reason. Unless Natsu defeats her, the people in that city won't…" Gray spoke not finishing his sentence as he looked to the floor in anger.
"The people in that city?" The older man in the room questioned.
"That baka went and forgot the promise he made to the people in the City Without Sound! That guy doesn't know when to quit so sometimes when we were younger, I'd go see how he was doing out on jobs. But that idiot forgets everything when he's thinking about Igneel."
"I'm not telling you to forget about Igneel, but you must always remember your main role is that of a wizard of this guild. Right?"
"I wasn't able to surpass Ur… but him… Natsu's the kind of guy who can surpass anything! Even Igneel himself! That's who Natsu is! If he doesn't keep getting stronger, fighting him won't be worth it!" Gray yelled standing up from his chair. He quickly settled down again as he sat back on his chair, he seemed to have a sad and guilty look spread across his face.
"Damn it… I thought he'd be able to destroy it easily. Let me out there, Jiichan." The raven haired teen begged. After a few moments of deep thinking by Makarov, he made his decision.
"Understood. I'm going to give you the plan." The Master informed Gray making him morph a look of surprise on his face.
And that's it, I'm as punctual as ever (I'm being sarcastic if you didn't notice). I'm really sorry but I'll try to get another chapter out, sometime soon, maybe in two weeks, a month, oh well! I hope you enjoyed the chapter! Leave a review and follow and fav if you like it!
