EARTH-LANDERS

The "bookshelf" route took the group to a sort of hidden passageway, a sort of emergency exit for the Fuhrer in case of calamity, such as the former warzone outside. The passageway is unlit due all the lightbulbs appearing to have been busted on purpose, so the group relied on Natsu's flames and Sting's "flashlight" for lighting.

"Are we there yet?" Natsu complained, even though he was in front of the group.

"Gee, I wonder." Gray deadpanned.

"I wasn't asking you, ice princess." Natsu retaliated.

"Then who? That shadow in front of you?" Gray stated, unaware that Rogue is actually in the shadows, scouting ahead.

"No, this door right in front of me-" Natsu was cut off as he bumped into a really big door. "Wait, what?!" Natsu exclaimed.

The door was made of metal, and looked so reinforced that it could withstand one of Acnologia's attacks. The door also has the symbol of Sabertooth engraved into it.

Natsu tried to push it.

"It won't budge." Natsu said, irritatedly.

"Try attacking it, then." Sting replied.

Natsu then attacked it with Fire Dragon's Iron Fist...

He was then immediately sent back by some sort of force, falling on his back.

"What the hell was that?!" Natsu yelled.

"That looked like magic, probably some sort of anti-magic barrier or enchantment." Levy stated.

"Great, how do we get through?" Lucy disappointingly inquired.

Sting was staring at the door, when he noticed a little button on the Sabertooth logo's eye, he then pressed it. A panel then revealed itself to him.

"Hey guys.." Sting then pointed to the panel. Everyone then stared at the panel that revealed itself to the world. The panel looked flat, and has a screen that has a picture of a fingerprint, and another separate panel that looked like another scanner of sorts.

"I believe this thing scans a finger, and this one, your eyes." Erza stated as she pointed at the two scanners.

"And how does that help us?" Sting inquired. "It won't accept any of our fingers or eyes, Erza, because we're not one of them." he continued.

An idea then popped up in Erza's head, she brought out the newspaper page she snatched from the Twin Dragons earlier, and looked at the Fuhrer's picture for a good five seconds. "It's worth a shot.." she thinks.

"Would the 'Fuhrer' KINDLY step forward?" she says...


EDOLASIANS

Natsu Dragion was being arrested for "impersonating" an officer.

"I-impersonating an officer?!" Dragion shakily protested. "What're you talking-" Dragion then looked at the officer, to his horror.

"Yeah, IMPERSONATING, buddy!" the officer replied, his serious stare going deep into Dragion's eyes.

Dragion now understood the charge, and the situation. The officer looked exactly like him, from his pink mop of hair to his eyes, the only difference being his clothes; the officer wore a tucked-in dark blue short-sleeved and button-up top with two pockets and a badge with the Fairy Tail logo, pinned on the left, along with dark blue pants, black shoes, and wore a black colored belt where a baton, two pouches, a communication device, and a holster for a gun, swung. There was also his nameplate on the right side of his shirt, it read "Dragonov".

"We're not in Edolas anymore..." Dragion thought, horrified. "...this a different world, and he is this world's NATSU!" he panickedly thought.

"In!" Dragonov ordered, as he opened the door. Dragion is then forced into the backseat of police car number 017, the same car he was staring at earlier.

"Cars here look very different..." Dragion thought, as he observed the car's grey colored interior, then he saw the steering wheel with an emblem on it.

"Bravado?" he read the writing on the emblem on the steering wheel. "Are cars branded here also?" he thought.

He then brought himself out of his car fantasy to assess the situation at hand. He looked outside the window and saw that all of his guildmates were awake, and being escorted inside numerous other police cars, and a police van.

Dragion then saw Officer Dragonov chatting with apparently, the world's Gray. Their conversation is inaudible to Dragion, but can tell they're in good terms with each other, with "Officer Natsu" giving "Officer Gray" a toothy grin, after parting ways. Dragonov then got in the driver's seat of the police car. Dragion then saw a chance to clear up some things.

"There must be some misunderstanding, please let me explain!" Dragion pleaded to Dragonov. Dragonov then turned to face Dragion, quite irritated.

"There's no misunderstanding here, bud. You're clearly impersonating an officer, ME!" Dragonov irritatedly stated, and yelling at "ME".

Dragion yelped at the unexpected outburst.

"But-" Dragion got cut-off.

"No buts! Every single one of yous were impersonating an officer!" Dragonov stated. "Such as him!" Dragonov then looked to the right rear door of the car, where Gray Surge was forced into by "Officer Gray". Dragion caught a glimpse of "Officer Gray's" nameplate; it read "Morozov".

Morozov wore the exact same clothing as Dragonov, except his top was long-sleeved and has the police crest on the topmost part of both sleeves, and he wore a dark blue tie.

"Besides, you people caused that scorched earth thing anyway, who would have?" Dragonov interjected.

Morozov then got in the front passenger seat.

"Bunch of whackjobs. They all said the same thing. 'We're from Edolas! We're from another world!'. Like, what the hell is Edolas? And another world? Ugh, what're people smoking nowadays?" Morozov complained.

"Edolas is where we're from, sir" Surge intruded. Morozov then turned to face Surge and Dragion, an irritated look on his face.

"Well, no such place exists, in this country or outside of it, capiche?" Morozov irratatedly replied.

"That's because it's not in this world, sir." Dragion said quietly with his head down, looking at the floor in timidity.

Morozov just sighed and returned to face the windshield. The car began to move, and went into a road called "Magnolia Ave".

Surge nudged Dragion to get his attention.

"What do we do? They won't listen." Surge whispered.

"Then we'll just have to try until they do." Dragion replied, whispering. "Just like what Natsu Dragneel said, 'never give up'." he added.

Both then nodded in acknowledgement and just stared out their respective windows.

Dragion and Surge took in the sights of the place. There are cars of multiple designs and colors everywhere, parked and driving. There are buildings of concrete with monochrome colors, some with blue all-glass facades, some with signage in English, most in a foreign language such as "Вооружение Крукова", "相良傭兵会社", and "Fegelein Buchhaltungsbüros". Both Edolasians are now confused, especially now that their "counterparts" started speaking in an unknown language, probably to hide whatever it was they're talking about.

"Грай, что же мы говорим комиссар Фаустин?" Dragonov says.

"Я не знаю, Нацу. То, что мы поймали кучу двойников?" Morozov replies.

"Не то, о науке эксперимента Зереф в. Может быть, это сработало, и они связаны с ним?" Dragonov replies.

"Зереф? Портал вещь? Я думал, что это просто ложь, как этот торт, чтобы защитить свое положение или что-то." Morozov replies in a surprised manner.

"Ну, это не ложь. Он сказал, что он был 'близок к прорыву'. Возможно, они связаны с его 'прорыв'?" Dragonov replies.

"Может быть. Спросите его об этом." Morozov replies.

"Да, да. Независимо, мамочка." Dragonov replied in a mocking tone. Morozov just gave a short laugh at the reply.


Foreign languages will get more frequent starting from this chapter. Also, if it's in a foreign language, it's a spoiler with varying degrees of "spoilertivity" heheh. If you're desperate, Google Translate is there anyways. Please review?
