Sky Eclipse Dragon Mode
"Fire Dragon's Roar!" Natsu said, as he breathed more of his fire at the Dorma Anim. While it inflicted a certain amount of damage, it wasn't that much. But that didn't discourage the Dragon Slayers.
"You call that an attack?" Gajeel said, "I'll show you an attack!" He then brought his hands together.
"Iron Dragon's Harpoon!" A large spiked pole of iron shot out of Gajeel's hands, striking the Dorma Anim in the chin, the force of which knocked it slightly back.
"How is the Dorma Anim being damaged?" Faust asked out loud, "This thing is supposed to be anti-magic!"
"You said that its a 'Dragon' Knight!" Natsu said as he flew over, "And we're Dragon Slayers!"
"You call that thing a dragon?" Gajeel said, "That's probably the stupidest looking dragon I've every seen!"
"Die you brats!" The Dorma Anim fired its mouth cannon at Natsu, who easily dodged it. While his attention was on Natsu, Faust got struck from behind by Gajeel's Dragon Roar. When he turned to face him, the Dorma Anim was intercepted, and got a face full of dragon fire. He clawed at Natsu, only for the half-dragon to easily evade by flying away.
The back of the Dorma Anim then opened, as several missiles flew out, and started streaming after Natsu. Natsu flapped madly around to avoid the attacks, as the missiles followed him. Baring his teeth, Natsu turned, and breathed out his fire at the missiles, destroying most of them.
"Fire Dragon's Wind Beat!" He then beat his wings, sending a curtain of fire at Faust. Faust held up the Dorma Anim's arms in defense. The force of the fire didn't do that much, but Natsu then flew through the smoke.
"Fire Dragon's Sword Horn!" He then rammed into the Dorma Anim's chest, knocking it back, towards Gajeel.
"Iron Dragon's Bolt!" The Dorma Anim was then hit in the side of the head by Gajeel's iron pole.
Natsu landed on some old structures, panting, while Gajeel wiped some sweat from his brow, as they looked over the machine. They were gradually whittling it down, but they both knew that whittling it down was not sufficient. They had to defeat this guy soon, or the Exceeds would be doomed.
"I won't deny your skill," Faust said, "But this thing was built using the power of Subject S! Its stronger than all of you!"
"I've faced far worse than you!" Gajeel said, "Let alone anything Salamander's face!"
"What's that's supposed to mean metal head?!" Natsu snapped.
"The hell do you think it means, Hot Stuff?"
"Who has the power to turn into a half-dragon here!" Natsu, "Screw this! I've already left Lucy and Haru alone too long, so you aren't worth the attention!" His chest then lit up, as he inhaled, while the Dorma Anim braced itself. However, there was a sudden gust as a shape whisked past Natsu, and struck the Dorma Anim. The impact did more than either the Fire or Iron Dragon Slayer did, as it left a noticeable dent in machine's armor. Much to Natsu and Gajeel's shock, Wendy landed before them, both the Sky and Eclipse magic swirling around her.
"Wendy?" Natsu asked, as he soared down towards her.
"Its a long story, but I absorbed some of Särakaotus' power," Wendy explained, as she smiled, "I've now got both Sky Dragon, and Eclipse Dragon magic!"
"You can use two kinds of Dragon Slayer magic?!" Gajeel demanded, "That's not fair!" Wendy flushed red, or more accurately dark pink due to the purple aura surrounding her.
"Well…."
"Leave Wendy alone!" Natsu yelled, before smiling at Wendy, "That's amazing little sis!"
"Thank's Natsu!" Wendy said with a smile. Natsu then glared at Faust.
"Now let's see what your new magic can do!" he said. Wendy nodded, before inhaling.
"Sky Eclipse Dragon Roar!" she cried, as she released a massive blast of wind and dark energy. It struck the Dorma Anim straight in the chest, causing it to fall to the ground, catching Wendy off guard.
"Wow! That was awesome!" Natsu said, "But how did you do it?"
"That thing was created using Särakaotus' power," Wendy said, "It must be exceptionally vulnerable to his magic."
"Then in that case!" Natsu said, flexing his wings, "You're leading the charge!" Normally Wendy wouldn't dream of leading an offensive, but something within her was encouraging. She had faith that this would go well.
"Let's go!" she declared. With that, the three Dragon Slayers charged.
(somewhere else)
"Damn, I was careless!" Mystogan said, looking over at the battle in the distance.
"Don't blame yourself, Prince," Pantherlily said as he set him down, "It certainly wasn't your fault." Mystogan took a breath.
"I have to trust Natsu at this point," he said, "If there's anyone who can take the Dorma Anim, its him. But there's something else I need to do. And I need your help."
"What is it?"
"Just follow me."
(with the main group)
The group advanced towards where the army was.
"Its time we do what Fairy Tail does best: protect people!" Erza declared, "To battle!" She then took notice of Knightwalker standing atop a legion, staring at her.
"Knightwalker!" Scarlet called, "If you have any shred of honor left in you, stop hiding behind your army and face me!" Knightwalker just smirked.
"I fight to win," she said, "Honor is for idiots." She then pointed down, suddenly several legions ascended from below.
"Destroy them!" Knightwalker ordered, as the soldiers took aim. However, a blast of Eclipse Dragon breath shot into the sky, that consumed the legion. Everyone looked down towards the ground, and saw Särakaotus' mouth open, before he collapsed again.
"The dragon saved us!" Levy said.
"Damn that demon!" Knightwalker said, "Forget the plan! Just kill them now!"
"Take them to the ground," Scarlet instructed to Cocoa, "Leave Knightwalker to me!"
"Erza!" Lucy said.
"Hold onto your son," Scarlet instructed with a smile, "While I hold onto my vow to him." Lucy wanted to protest, but knew it would be like protesting to a sword ("brick wall" didn't do Scarlet justice). With that, Scarlet leapt from the legion, and with one sword, cut a legion clean from the sky. As it was falling, she scrambled up it, and used it to leap onto another, cutting it down as well.
"Knightwalker!" she called, "I can only conclude that you're a coward, based on your actions here. Because no true warrior would hide behind her deception like this!" With that, Scarlet re-quipped into her Morning Star Armor, and held up a new sword with similar details.
"You call yourself Erza, and yet you would raise your blade against Edolas?" Knightwalker asked as her Ten Commandments reformed itself again.
"And you would try to murder the people of Fairy Tail?" Scarlet countered, "I think the situation is clear."
"Two Erza's is one too many," Knightwalker said, "Its time that its remedied!" With that, the two crashed their weapons together.
(on the ground)
The legion landed in the forest, as everyone jumped off.
"Everyone!" Carla called, as she flew towards them.
"Carla!" Happy said with a smile.
"You have to…" Carla didn't finish as there was a sudden explosion in the ground.
"Its the army!" Cocoa said.
'How many are there?" Gray said.
"Many," Levy said, before smiling, "But we've taken on worse."
"You have?" Cocoa asked.
(with the Erzas)
The two red heads clashed weapons again, as they forced each apart.
"Morning Star: Photon Slicer!" Scarlet said, sending a burst of magic at Knightwalker.
"Rune Save!" Knightwalker said, as she seemed to cut through the magic itself, before the spear reformed again, "Silfarion!" She then jetted at Scarlet, as the two parried each other again and again.
"I don't get it!" Knightwalker said, "Why would you fight for Fairy Tail?!" She struck again against Scarlet, who managed to block it.
"For the same reason I imagine you fought for Edolas," Scarlet answered, as she summoned a sword into her foot, and slashed at Knightwalker, who only dodged by a hair, "Fairy Tail is my home! But you cannot compare the two, not even remotely! You fight for a dead kingdom that was cruel, oppressive, and arrogant!" Knightwalker let out an enraged yell, as they clashed blades again.
"Edolas fought to bring eternal magic to everyone!" she declared, "How could you have understand?! You're from Earthland!"
"I understand that its wrong to step on people to earn my desires!" Scarlet answered, "Edolas was built on that! Not to mention you had the idiocy to try and keep a dragon imprisoned beneath your castle! It deserved to die!" She then boosted herself on her arms, and kicked Knightwalker away.
"How dare you!" Knightwalker, "It was your fault that the kingdom died! Blue Crimson!" Her spear changed again into dual red and blue spears, which Scarlet both managed to block.
"Our fault?!" she countered, "All we've done is to give a tortured being its freedom! Unlike you, who draw your power from torturing! Enough talk! Its time we let out blades do the talking!" With that, they continued their duel.
(with the Dragon Slayers)
The battle was going quite well for the Dragon Slayers. Wendy's dual abilities was inflicting a great deal of damage upon the Dorma Anim, Faust could never get a hit on her with Natsu flying around breathing fire on him, and Gajeel was constantly knocking him off balance with his iron strikes.
As the Dorma Anim withstood a curtain of dragon fire, Faust fired the missiles again, which chased after Natsu.
"Wendy!" he called.
"Yes!" Wendy said, understanding, "Sky Eclipse Dragon Scythes!" She swung her arms, as several wind scythes shot out, causing the missiles to explode into fire, which Natsu promptly sucked up.
"Damn you!" Faust snapped, as he turned to go to Wendy, only to notice Gajeel chomp on the Dorma Anim's tail.
"Geh!" Gajeel said, "This metal tastes terrible! You need some better metal workers!" He then turned, and held up his arm and his finger.
"Iron Dragon's Sniper!" A thin, but sharp piece of iron shot out of his finger tip, and struck right through the Dorma Anim's eye, barely missing Faust himself. In his moment of distraction, the Dragon Slayers made their move.
"Fire Dragon's Spitfire!" Natsu said, as he rapidly spat several balls at the Dorma Anim's face, which stunned Faust enough for Wendy to strike. The Dual Element Dragon Slayer brought her hands together, before forcing them forward.
"Sky Eclipse Dragon's Blast!" A burst of combined energy struck at the Dorma Anim's leg, knocking it off balance, as it began to fall in one direction. This allowed Gajeel to make his move, as he put his fists together.
"Iron Dragon's Lance: Demon Trunk!" A massive spear of iron came from his hands, striking the Dorma Anim in the side as it crashed to the ground. The Dragon Slayers regrouped, as they looked over their fight.
"Did we get him?" Wendy asked.
"No," Gajeel said, "He's still coming. We need..." But then they all began to hear a sinister laughing from the Dorma Anim, as it began to rise to its feet, and pulse with magical energy.
"Your magic power truly is tremendous," Faust said, as he grinned manically, "I must have it! That power must be mine!" With that, the Dorma Anim exploded with magic power so great, it knocked all three Dragon Slayers off their feet. Its body then changed, it stood more upright, as its arms turned to blades, and its body turned from white, to a deep black.
"Dorma Anim: Black Sky!"
Note: Sorry this was so short, but I didn't want the fight with Faust to only be one chapter. You'll probably notice in this fight that Wendy doesn't do as much support. Well, that's because she's now got a serious power boost from getting the Eclipse Dragon power. I'd go so far to say that with this power, she might be as strong as Gajeel is now, if not possibly slightly stronger.
Take note I'm using the anime design for the Dorma Anim: Black Sky, since its cooler looking, and offers more possibility to expand on.
Be sure to review. Something that really frustrates me is that I got over a dozen reviews for chapter 57 with Haru's birth, but I can't read any of them, since I only activated the email review alert system after.
One of the reasons I hoped my readers were up to date with the manga is for the following, because I'd love to here suggestions for what I can do for a situation that happens after chapter 416. If you've read that far, you know what happens in 416. I don't want to do what happens in canon, and I've got a lot of ideas, which I'm not sure of. But I still really want to hear other people's ideas. If anyone has one they'd like to share, be sure to PM me. I like to plan as far ahead as possible. It makes the writing process simpler.
