S.R: So I've had nothing better to do lately and have been able to work on this story quite a bit along with the one-shot mentioned in my ending commentary on my last chapter. As such you guys get my updates sooner than they were supposed to be out.
Natsu: So…. How many chapters more of the cannon events before going off on your own arcs?
S.R: Good question. Let's see….. This chapter (The battle of Fairy Tail) is one. Then the Oracion Seis arc will be two maybe three chapters (I'm about half way through writing what I want for the arc) so three or four chapters before I split off from cannon events.
Erza: Well Natsu I think we should leave him to his work. Let's go.
Natsu: Aye!
*Erza and Natsu leave*
S.R: Well time to get to work.
NATSU'S POV
"Dammit! Stupid delays…. We've missed the first few days of the Harvest Festival. I bet we even missed the annual Fairy Tail beauty pageant. *sigh* and I really wanted to watch Erza win. At least then we could've taken some time off from missions." I ranted to myself as Erza and I made our way towards the guild to inform every one of our return. We walked into the guild hall to find it empty. Erza was about to leave before I pointed out Gajeel and master where still in the guild hall. "Hey gramps what's going on?" I asked. He explained everything that had happened earlier. Snarling I told him to keep an eye on the girls and went to find Laxus. Or at least I would've if I could get out the door. "Natsu…. Are you over 80?" Erza asked trying not to laugh. "Course he's not. The runes Freed put up affect us because of our dragon slayer magic. Instead of seeing our physical age it sees our magical age which is as old as our dragon fathers." Gajeel explained which answered my silent question as to why he was still in the guild hall.
"Well you guys stay here for now. I'll go beat Evergreen, and then when the girls return to normal Levy can disable Freed's runes so you two can get out of here and beat up Freed and Bickslow." With that said Erza left the guild hall. Gajeel and I just grimly read the battle reports until we saw that Gray had bested Bickslow. "Gajeel. When we get out of here you go after Freed. I'll take on Laxus." I turned to gramps before continuing "I will knock some sense back into his head so please don't punish him too harshly gramps…" They both just nodded in understanding before we went back to somewhat patiently waiting for Erza to find and beat Evergreen.
MEANWHILE
ERZA'S POV
"Evergreen! Release the others from you spell!" I shouted at the green clad woman I had found. "Never! Now be a good girl and make this fight fun. It'll be so much better for me when I take your title of Titania." She scoffed at me and then cast her Fairy Machine Gun: Leprechaun. In my head I laughed at how pathetic her attack was and summoning four swords one for each hand and leg I fended off her attack. In the blink of any eye I threw and kicked all four swords at her pinning her to the wall behind her. "Release them now or suffer." I said summoning another sword and using it to scare her. She did as I asked and then I head-butted her into unconsciousness.
I then took off at a brisk walking pace to check up on the guild. By the time I got there however Natsu and Gajeel were gone. Master asked me to help make sure the others were all right and ordered me not to find Laxus for some odd reason but I didn't question it and did as he asked. I asked him for an update on the situation and was told shortly before I beat Evergreen, Gray had defeated Bickslow. He wouldn't tell me where Natsu went though. "Is Natsu why you don't want me going after Laxus?" I quietly asked after putting the pieces together. He just nodded and told me to have faith in him, and then Freed's runes mentioned that Gajeel had beaten him before they faded away.
MEANWHILE (AGAIN)
NATSU'S POV
Following my sense of smell I made my way to Kardia Cathedral fully intent on beating Laxus into the ground, hopefully to knock some common sense into him. Opening the door I saw Laxus give a small smile when he spotted me. "I was hoping you'd come back from wherever you were and rush in to fight me. I want to prove just how weak you really are before I take over the guild and throw you out." Laxus arrogantly stated. I just growled in response letting my flames fan out from me. Laxus just let his lightning flow freely in response. We both growled at each other before charging. I used my Fire Dragon's Iron Fist while he in turn used his Lightning Body to attempt to dodge my flames and hit me at the same time. Luckily for me I saw it coming and cast my Earth Dragon's Stone Fist with my left arm and caught him on his side sending him spiraling into the wall with the excess lightning from his spell being dissipated through the stone that made up my left arm. "What the hell was that?! You're a Fire Dragon Slayer Not an Earth Dragon Slayer!" Laxus yelled at me before launching his Lightning Blast attack at me. I just jumped towards him and out of the way as I used Fire Dragon's Flame Elbow to speed up my punch and hit him in the face. Before I could move away he grabbed my arm and used his Lightning Blast once more. I let the attack hit me before pulling him away from the wall and sling shot him into the opposite wall. I then used Earth Dragon's Roar hopping to stir up some dust and make the fight a lot easier. I didn't think it would hit him but strangely it did. I grinned thinking I had won.
"Is that the best you've got? You're pathetic. Let me show you real power!" Laxus screamed before lightning surged around him. He then cast his Lightning Dragon Slayers Roar. I jumped out of the way while questioning how he knew Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic. He told me his father implanted a Lightning Dragon Slayer Lacrima in him, and then disappeared from my view. Reappearing right in front of me using his Lightning Dragon's Breakdown Fist to upper cut me into the air. He followed up by delivering an axel kick to my stomach. I plummeted into the floor. As I tried to stand Laxus used his Lightning Dragon's Jaw the force of which left a decent sized crater. I grinned madly as I reached out and grabbed his arm. Holding on tight I cast my Fire Dragon's Grip Strike and followed up with my Fire Dragon's Crushing Fang before I let go and watch him go flying away. Laxus recovered quickly from my attack as cast his Lightning Dragon's Heavenward Halberd hoping I wouldn't be able counter as there was no way I could dodge. Unfortunately for him I could counter and I did using my Earth Dragon's Unbreakable Claymore which was the same thing as his Heavenward Halberd only as a Claymore. While the dust stirred up settled Laxus told me he was going to end it with this last attack. I laughed and said I'd be the one to end it with my next attack.
Grinning at each other as we moved he attacked with his Lightning Dragon's Secret Art: Roaring Thunder. Using my flames to increase my speed I jumped up and over the spell before continuing on my path to Laxus. When I got close enough I ended the fight with my Fire Dragon's Secret Art Crimson Lotus: Exploding Flame Blade. Scoring a direct hit with my spell I cheered knowing Laxus was done for. I waited a few minutes before noticing how much calmer Laxus looked now that he was worn out. "Natsu… Thanks. You reminded me what it means to be a Fairy Tail wizard. Always looking out for our friends and defending them even from each other… You are the embodiment of what Fairy Tail stands for." He stated before smiling at me. I smiled back as I offered him my hand. Helping him up I gently patted him on the back telling him "It's good to have you back Laxus." We then made our way back to the guild.
When we got there Laxus made a public apology for all the harm he caused. We all forgave him and threw a small party to celebrate. "Laxus even though we've all forgiven you for your misdeeds you still need punished. Your punishment is….. To clean up the guild hall when we're done partying!" Gramps told Laxus when he apologized to him halfway through the party. He just smiled at how lightly he got off before thanking me for bringing him back. I just asked him to sit and chat with me for a bit like we used to do. Shortly after we sat down at a table in the back Mira brought us drinks and told me "Natsu don't take too long now. Erza wants to go home soon for some reason." I laughed at her before seeing Laxus's confused face. I told Laxus he missed the wedding and that Erza and had just gotten back from our Honeymoon and decided to check in with the guild before heading home. "Sorry I stopped you guys from getting home Natsu… Oh and nice job in getting the girl." He whispered when we saw Erza making her way to us. He also gave me a thumbs up while he said it.
Erza sat down beside me as she kissed my cheek before saying hello to Laxus. He nodded to me as if saying it was okay to go home with her and that we'd catch up later. "A little birdy told me you want to go home Erza. Well you can but I'd really like to talk to Laxus for a bit longer I have a few questions I want to ask him." I told her and kissed her good night when she commented that she'd see me at home then. Laxus looked at me as she left. "Let me guess. You wanna know why I didn't tell you about my magic sooner… Well I was actually a little worried it might piss you off that I could use dragon slayer magic like you without even being taught by a dragon. But now that you know…. What do you think?" He questioned me. "I can understand that, but you don't need to worry I think it's cool to have another dragon slayer besides Gajeel and I even if you didn't learn it from an actual dragon. By the way Gajeel and I have been planning to start training together. Wanna join us? It would help make your dragon slayer magic stronger." Was how I responded. He nodded and thanked me for the offer before telling me to head home to my woman. Laughing with him as I stood up I bid everyone good night and left the guild.
S.R: Well time to post another chapter. Oh and as a heads up the next upload will be my one-shot for Blue Exorcist. Thanks for reading and remember these things 1
1. Eat your veggies. You'll grow up to be big and strong.
2. Unless you want children always use a condom during sex.
3. Reviewing a story can mean the difference between it getting abandoned and it staying alive until the author finishes it.(hint, hint)
