Hyper blade vs. Pandora's Box: Jack vs. ?

Chapter 35 part 5

"Tha… that can't be. No way. You…you… you look just like me!" But how? He looked just like me. I don't recall having a TWIN brother.

"Surprised. Don't worry about it," I shook my head.

"I don't know who you are, but your tricks won't work on me. GLASS DRAGON ROAR!" I didn't see him move so I was sure I hit him.

"If it's really that hard to believe let me give you my NEW name," He said from right behind me.

"Jack is weak, worthless. The name of a loser. Zeth. That's the name of a winner," I tried hitting him.

"Just know I have no interest in killing you since you're me. But you also have no way of defeating me. I'm you in every way only stronger and without all that pesky 'love and friendship'," (A/N: I'm going to call him Zeth instead of 'evil Jack' or something) Zeth said now in front of me. "GLASS DRAGON PISTON!" I shot my arm at him. He grabbed hold of it and it stopped.

"Stop. Nothing you can do will have any chance of hurting me," I pulled myself towards him and tried hitting him in the head. He grabbed my hand with his free one, spun me around and threw me back to where I started. "GLASS DRAGON SHARD WHIP!" I formed a whip made of glass shards and swung it at Zeth. Again, he just put his hand up and my whip swung around it making it stuck. He pulled me in and held me by the shirt.

"A scar right here would suit you," He punched my lip sending me flying backwards. I got up quickly and felt my lip. There was a wound and it was in the exact same spot Zeth's was.

"If you really are me then why do you want to kill Fairy Tail? It doesn't make sense!"

"I just feel like it. Just to see if I can you know. Admit it. You want to see if you can do it too right. Just… maybe not to such an extreme."

"You make me sick," He smiled and was suddenly right behind me.

"You mean you make yourself sick. That's kind of sad," I was tired of listening to this guy. "GLASS DRAGON SPIKE SHELL!" The spiked shell shot out of my back. Zeth took a step back avoiding all the spikes by an inch.

"I know the exact length of all your attacks. We invented them ourselves," He grabbed onto one of the spikes and threw me into the air.

"I might not kill you, but I'm going to rough you up a bit," I hit the roof and got stuck to it. Zeth jumped up and smashed me through it. He kicked me in the stomach sending me downwards again. I hit the ground just as Sapphire came through the door.

"Jack I brought the girls are you okay!" She started running towards me and all the girls from Fairy Tail came running after her.

"NO! Stay back," I yelled as Zeth came through the roof and hit me in the solar plexus. I started gasping for air. Sapphire's eyes widened when she saw his face.

"See something you like," He suddenly appeared in the middle of all the girls.

"CHAOS DRAGON DARK MATTER SHELL!" He created the spiked shell and the spikes were about to extend and impale all of them.

"No stop right now," I slowly got up. He stopped his attack.

"You still have some fight left in you," All the girls started in confusion at the two of us.

"Go help the others. I'll explain later. I got this guy. He's not laying a single finger on my family," This was what I'd been training for. Saving people. Everyone started searching the guildhall for people. Erza cut open the cocoon Silver and Gin had been fighting inside while Mira headed for the basement. I concentrated all my energy on my magic. "GLASS JADE DRAGON MODE!"

"Oh no you don't. CHAOS DRAGON FLUX PISTON!" Zeth fired his piston and it was about to attack them. "GLASS JADE DRAGON KARATE PISTON!" I fired the mix of jade green and clear piston at his and it was shot out of the air.

"There's no way you're as strong as me. That was at full power."

"The talking is done. It stopped the second you went after my family. I don't care who you are at this point. GLASS JADE DRAGON TWIN SPIRAL ROAR!" I blasted at him with the two spirals of glass and jade. He put both his hands up to stop it. The spirals hit his hands and he was pushed back. I wasn't going to let up now not in a million years. "GLASS JADE DRAGON SHARD WHIP!" I created a whip like the one before, but this time it was longer bigger and every other shard was jade instead of glass. I swung it at Zeth and he dodged upwards. "CHAOS DRAGON ROAR!" He blasted me with a roar. "GLASS JADE DRAGON TWIN SPIRAL ROAR!" The two attacks connected and mine was way stronger. He was engulfed in the shards. I knew had to be holding back due to not wanting to kill me. I hurled my whip into the roar and got Zeth's leg. I pulled him into the ground. He smashed his hand into my whip destroying it. He quickly recovered.

"You're stronger than I expected. CHAOS DRAGON FLUX PISTON!" He hit me dead on in the stomach and I grabbed onto his arm. "GLASS JADE DRAGON LOCKDOWN!" I punched his arm into the ground and created a layer of glass and jade over it so he couldn't break free. "GLASS JADE DRAGON KATANA!" My arm turned into a long thin blade made from glass and jade. I impaled his arm and started running towards him cutting up his entire arm. He was clearly in pain. I was right about to hit his body.

"ENOUGH!" He grabbed my katana arm with three fingers stopping it completely. "CHAOS DRAGON ROAR!" He fired his roar at me and it hit me dead on. It was many times more powerful than it was the previous times. I was flung back. He broke his arm free from my prison. He turned it back to normal and there was a long cut up his entire arm.

"You'll pay for that. CHAOS DRAGON DARK MATTER SHARD WHIP!" He created a whip much like mine except made from a dark metallic material and it was much longer than mine was. He swung it at me. I jumped over. "GLASS JADE DRAGON…" I was about to attack when he swung the whip over his head and grabbed onto me. He smashed me into the ground, pulled me over his head and slammed me into the ground on the other side. He spun me around and hurled towards the exit. Sapphire, who had been watching the entire thing caught me and put me down.

"Are you alright?" I pushed her to the side.

"Hey what was that for?" Zeth's flux piston came through the room and hit me out of the guildhall. He rushed after me. I hit a wall and stopped.

"I won't be defeated by someone like who thinks good of this putrid guild! I refuse! CHAOS DRAGON DUAL FLUX PISTONS!" He attempted to squash me with his pistons by shooting them to the side and slamming them together. But right before they hit me they stopped. I looked up and saw that I hadn't hit a wall, but Gildarts. He held Zeth's arms in each of his hands.

"I was just out for a midnight walk and heard something by the guildhall so I came to check it out. You need help?" I slowly got up and Zeth retracted his arms.

"Gildarts of the west. Are the reputations true about your amazing power. Jack. I think you need to get out of the way."

"You get three seconds to stop whatever you're planning to do and get out of my sight," Gildarts started letting out his amazing magic power. I looked at him terrified of what he might do. Zeth however seemed unaffected by it.

"Such a trick won't work on me. I know a kid with more magic power than you. His name's Mike. Jack's exceed is probably dead by now thanks to his uncontrollable power," Gildarts stopped his power.

"I'm going to the guildhall. You can take care of this kid. If you're anything like the others you'll make quick work of him," Gildarts walked right past Zeth not paying him any mind at all.

"How dare you ignore me. Your arrogance will be your undoing. CHAOS DRAGON FLUX PISTON!" He turned around and tried hitting Gildarts. He turned around and hit his hand causing it to explode flinging Zeth backwards.

"You're the arrogant one. Paying no mind to the real threat behind you," He turned around only to see me standing there. "DRAGON SLAYER SECRET ART SHEN'S NULLIFYING ACUPUNCTURE!" Out of my hands fired a continues stream of needles. Some glass some jade. They all surrounded Zeth at every possible angle.

"I might not know acupuncture, but if I hit every possible spot on your body it has to do something," I let the needles loose and they all stormed him. "CHAOS DRAGON DARK MATTER SHELL!" He tried getting his shell up, but the needles penetrated through it and hit him all over the place. He fell to the floor completely immobilized.

"Got you," I said smiling and falling to my knees.

"So this is it huh? Bested by my weaker self," I collapsed and we were both looking at the night sky curtesy of Kai's perfect midnight.

"Since I beat you why don't you tell me your story?" Zeth started chuckling.

"What's so funny?"

"Beat me? When did I say I was defeated? You can learn a lot in a year besides a new form of magic," What was he talking about?

"Oh yeah like what?" I supported myself on my shoulder looking at him. He started laughing. "DRAGON FORCE!" The second I heard those words I got to my feet and prepared for his worst. He lifted into the air by black smoke. His hair became purple with some stripes that continually changed color. His pupils became violet and the rest of his eyes became pure black. Black smoke formed around his shoulders and formed what looked like wings. His hoodie was ripped to screeds revealing his upper body, which was being covered in strange black markings. All his blood in his veils turned purple and they began glowing. His fangs and nails grew larger and became black.

"What do you think? Let me show you what this form is capable of," I was suddenly hit in the back and he snatched me out of the air. He was too fast for me to even realize he was gone before he had been behind me, kicked me and returned to his original position. He hurled me back towards the guildhall. I was about to lose consciousness. 'Mavis help us. He's too strong.'

'I know. Help is already on the way. And he's very handsome.' Mavis answered in my mind. I smiled. 'Good to hear. We're safe then.'

Meanwhile at the guildhall.

"KAI! Are you okay? I couldn't get inside because the door was stuck! I was so worried," Mira said as she came rushing through the door.

"I'm fine. Besides, why would you be worried about me? Don't think I can take care of myself?"

"Don't even joke about that. We need to get topside quickly," Kai shrugged.

"Straight to the point. Then what are we waiting for!" the two began making their way to the top floor.

"Silver. Are you alright? What is going on?" Erza said as she came to her rescue.

"I'm fine. You need to help him. Zefra almost killed him," Erza checked Gin's pulse when she noticed Silver's hand was missing.

"What happened in here?"

"That doesn't matter. How's the situation outside.

"Currently Jack is battling a lookalike of himself, but other than that I am uncertain of the details," the two left the cocoon only to see me get launched out of the guildhall.

"Is everyone alright?" Silver scouted the group of people.

"I do not see Kai nor Zeke anywhere."

"I don't know about that furball, but I'm right here," Kai said coming into the main hall. Just then, Gildarts came running through the door.

"Did I miss something while I was down there. Why are all the girls and Gildarts here?" He ran right past everyone and into one of the back rooms.

"The leader of the guild is extremely powerful so Jack asked me to go to Fairy hills and get everyone. As for Gildarts I have no idea."

"I hope Jack doesn't hear I lost to a 9 year old," He closed his eyes and bowed his head in defeat. When suddenly the meteor was smashed into a million pieces.

"I was out for a little midnight stroll and heard some commotion and I figured I might as well see what it was about. Besides what kind of s-class wizard would I be if I let a member DIE while I was home?" Gildarts said standing with his fist in the air indicating that he'd been the one smashing it to pieces.

"I appreciate the help big guy. He doesn't know what he's doing so don't go all out," Gildarts started walking towards Mike. He held up his arm and every time lightning struck him, it disassembled dispersing the electricity into the air. The same for the volcanos. He just smashed them to pieces.

"Are you a meanie too like the kitty?" Mike asked. Gildarts leaned forward. Mike looked at him with intrigue. The chaos of a battlefield started dampening. He then reached out for him and Mike froze.

"Please don't hurt me," Gildarts then proceeded to tickle him making him fall over in laughter.

"No. Noohoho. Please. Hahaha," Mike cried out in laughter. The entirety of Mike magic stopped and the room returned to normal. Gildarts stopped tickling him.

"Alright kid. How about we get out of here?" Mike nodded and he got to sit on his shoulders. Zeke was just witnessing this in complete awe. He ran up beside Gildarts.

"Let me get this straight. The strongest wizard in fairy tail just defeated someone by tickling him till he gave up.

"I didn't 'defeat' him per say. He didn't even know he was fighting," the two got out into the guildhall again and Gildarts put Mike down.

"Why don't you go over to the blue haired girl over there?" He said and pointed to Wendy. Mike nodded and ran over to her. Zeke ran after him.

"He's been brainwashed or at least cursed somehow to be oblivious to his enormous power. He nearly killed me without realizing it," Wendy nodded and began treating him. I suddenly came through the door and rolled over the floor. Zeth was suddenly standing in the door.

"Alright. Who's next?"

He might just be one man, but he was no pushover. We had our work cut out for us. Zeth the chaos dragon slayer vs. Fairy Tail!
