Only two remain. Two members of Ten Rave are left, but that might be dropped down to a mere one. Erza and Natsu stand against the leader of Ten Rave and Natsu might have figured out his identity.

"This is going to the most fun I've had yet." Master said as he was confident in his abilities. "I get to bring down two of Fairy Tail's strongest."

"That won't happen. Now, I demand you tell me as to why you've set your sights on Magnolia." Erza said.

"Hang on, Erza. There's something about his scent." Natsu said. "His smell, it's just like Gramps and Laxus." That was a surprise to Erza, but she was able to put all the pieces together.

"Fairy Traitor"

"His sent is just like Master Makarov and Laxus? Now, I'm beginning to get it. I know who you are." Erza said.

"Do you?" Master said.

"You have to be someone that is related to Laxus and Master Makarov, but you would also have to be someone who has a grudge against Fairy Tail." Erza said. "How about you take off the hood…Ivan?" He saw no point in hiding anymore as he took off his hood and revealed to be Ivan Dreyar, a former member of Fairy Tail.

"So you finally figure it out." Ivan said.

"Yes and I also see why you're targeting Fairy Tail." Erza said.

"Who is this guy again?" Natsu said as he scratched the back of his head.

"Natsu, he use to be the master of Raven Tail during the Grand Magic Games in X791." Erza reminded. "He also happens to be Laxus' father and Master Makarov's son, but he was exiled form Fairy Tail a long time ago. He's also the reason Laxus became a dragon slayer by putting a dragon lacrima inside him."

"Oh yeah. Now, I'm starting to remember." Natsu said.

"I'm flatter that Titania knows me that well." Ivan said.

"So even after Raven Tail was disbanded, you didn't let go of your hatred to Fairy Tail and formed a new guild. Ivan, this is madness. Tell me how to stop the cannon at once." Erza demanded.

"I'll make a deal with you since I've heard your Fairy Tail's new master, Erza." Ivan said. "You tell me where the Lumen Histoire and I'll stop the Dragon Extinction Cannon."

"I won't do that." Erza said. "I see through your bluff. You won't stop the cannon even if I did tell you and it does no good. The Lumen Histoire is gone."

"What?" Ivan said.

"It was lost during the war with Alvarez." Erza said.

"You don't expect me to believe that, do you?" Ivan said.

"It's the truth, you old geezer." Natsu said.

"I'm not buying it." Ian said. "That's why I brought out the D.E.C. I'll destroy everything in my path to find it. I'll start with your guildhall and keep working my way until I find it."

"There's no way that's going to happen." Natsu said.

"I like to see you two try and stop me." Ivan said. "I must admit that I'm having mixed feelings. I want Fairy Tail's destruction, but I was hoping to see my little Laxus and settle the score after what he did to me and Raven Tail. That good for nothing son of mine."

"How can you say that about your own son?" Natsu said.

"You haven't changed at all." Erza said. "Master Makarov told me what you were like. You even tempted to take the lacrima inside Laxus for money knowing it would kill him. You're a fiend."

"Don't give me a lecture like Makarov would." Ivan said and snickered. "Especially since he's been long dead. You can't imagine how happy I was when I heard that old man finally croaked." That was the last straw for both Natsu and Erza.

"Damn you!" Natsu said as he had his fists caught on fire.

"You can say whatever you want, but we won't allow you to speak ill of Master Makarov!" Erza said. "Requip! Heaven's Wheel Armor!" Erza' armor changed into one like an angel warrior with wings and a dress. Both of them leaped forward and attacked.

"That's right, rush to your demise." Ivan said as he held out both of his hands and torrents of paper dolls were shot out of his sleeves and pushed them back as they tried to block it.

"What is this? Paper Magic?" Natsu said and easily burned them all away. "You'll have to do a lot better than that." Erza pulled out and flew up with swords forming a circle around her.

"Dance, my swords. Circle Sword!" Erza shot out the swords in a circle formation, but Ivan was able to avoid it with great speed. "How did he do that?"

"I'm not the same man I use to be when we crossed paths during the Grand Magic Games." Ivan said. "I'm even stronger. Don't tell me that's all you have, Erza. I am a little surprised Laxus isn't the master. Is it because he's too weak, too much of an embarrassment, or has Fairy Tail dropped in power?"

"Damn you." Erza said.

"Fire Dragon's Roar!" Natsu breathed out his flames, but Ivan formed a wall of those paper dolls and blocked the attack. "You think paper can stop us?" When the dolls burned away, Ivan was gone. "Where'd he go?" Natsu felt he got kicked in the back and Ivan was responsible for that.

"I just said I'm stronger than when I was before." Ivan said.

"Black Wing Armor!" Erza's armor changed to black, little more revealing, and had bat wings on the back. She swung a sword down on Ivan, but he dispersed into those paper dolls.

"We shouldn't have expected someone to give Laxus a good beating to go down easy." Natsu said.

"The fight we saw all those years ago was just an illusion. Laxus took him down in one hit." Erza said.

"Yes, but that doesn't seem to be the case with you two." Ivan reappeared. He formed a few orbs with the paper dolls and fired dark beams with them, but Erza and Natsu were able to avoid them.

"How the hell did you get like this? How could you just turn against Fairy Tail?" Natsu said.

"It was easier than you think once I learned of the Lumen Histoire." Ivan said. "To think you would use the body of Fairy Tail's master like that. Such a dark secret."

"You're wrong. It's the light of Fairy Tail." Erza said.

"You wouldn't understand that because you betrayed it." Natsu said as he ran right to him and tried to hit him right in the face, but Ivan directed the laser beams to be blasted right at Natsu. Natsu saw the attack coming and jumped over the attacks. "So why did you turn your back on the guild?"

"Natsu, just let it go." Erza said. "It was probably for the best. Someone that would endanger his comrades, threaten to kill his own son, and treasures money more than family doesn't belong in Fairy Tail."

"Oh yeah?" Ivan said. He formed the dolls together into a giant ball and was glowing a dark color. "I don't care for that anymore. Your guild will be destroyed by my hand." He brought it down and it exploded like a bomb. Ivan waited for the smoke to clear, but he saw both of them were still standing.

"Is that all you got?" Natsu said.

"Just give up the fight, Ivan." Erza said. "You were once part of the guild. Surely, you would know that our guild will never fall to someone like you."

"That's what you think." Ivan said and created multiple torrents of his paper dolls at them, but Natsu and Erza were able to hold their own against them. "Now, tell me where the Lumen Histoire is and this will be easier on you."

"I've already told you about it." Erza said and slashed her way through the paper dolls. "You've endangered Fairy Tail with many innocent civilians because of this weapon. Master Makarov might have given you chances, but I won't." She flew in and slashed right against him, but Ivan won't fall that easily.

"Stay back!" Ivan shouted as he thrusted his hand against Erza and pushed her back.

"Now, Natsu! Show him the power Fairy Tail possess." Erza said and Natsu jumped up and right at him.

"This is what you get for talking trash about Laxus and Gramps. You're the one good for nothing." Natsu said. "Dragon Slayer Secret Art! Flame Lotus: Exploding Flame Blade!" Natsu spun his arms and shot streams of fire that collided against each other to cause multiple explosions and blasted against Ivan. Ivan might have been Ten Rave's master, but even he couldn't stand up to the might of Natsu and Erza. He slid against the ground in defeat, but in this battle, not this war.

'I might have lost, but this isn't over. It's all up to you, Dusk. You cannot fall, but I know you can't with your power.' Ivan thought before he passed out. Erza changed back to her regular outfit.

"Nice work, Natsu. Ivan must have been the one in control of this thing." Erza said. "He must have Orihime's hairpins on him. She said they mean everything to her so we should return them."

"Right." Natsu said. Erza went over to Ivan and tried to find where he stashed Orihime's hairpins, but Natsu felt something was off. He looked up and saw the stars were still moving. That meant the D.E.C. was still moving.

"What? I don't get it." Erza said.

"Erza, something is wrong. This thing is still moving." Natsu said.

"Ivan doesn't have Orihime's hairpins." Erza said. "I don't understand. I thought Ivan was in control of this thing. So why is it still moving and where is Orihime's hairpins?"

…..

Dusk

The truth was that Dusk had Orihime's hairpins as they were placed right in his vest. Ivan entrusted him to hold onto them. Dusk stood on the rooftops and he was already well aware of what was happening.

"So even Ivan has fallen. Oh well, it doesn't matter." Dusk claimed. "He might have been the master, but the truth is that his power is nothing compared to mine. I am the strongest out of everyone in Ten Rave. As long as I'm still standing, the D.E.C. will not be stopped."

"Hurry! We've got to figure out how we're going to stop this thing." Dusk looked down to the streets and he saw Ichigo, Orihime, and Hachi were running through.

"Ichigo, do you really think we can stop this thing?" Orihime said.

"We have to." Hachi said.

"Just keep heading for the tower. That seems to be the only thing around that might hold something that can stop it." Ichigo said. Dusk looked down at the three of them, but his focus was really on Ichigo. He smiled in delight at the thought of what he's going to do to him. Ten has been dropped down to just one, but this one is the strongest out of all of them. Some battles they nearly got out alive, but this one might be the most dangerous of them all.

…..

Orihime: Ichigo, is it true that you regained your power just by breathing in the air when it's night out?

Ichigo: Yeah.

Orihime: Have you ever met someone that uses a power that is similar to yours?

Ichigo: Not really, but that would be a nice challenge.

Ichigo: Next Time: Dark vs. Dark

Orihime: I do hope that you would be safe if you ever got caught in a fight like that.
