NOTE: Sorry, this took so long. I was focusing a lot on Priestess 10 and getting through some of that. I had some time to write this chapter, because my school load at the moment is super heavy. Can't speak much on the future though.

I have considered adding a Xeno Fairy Tail to the story... but I'm just not confident in the idea. Not that the Time Patrollers get super involved in this Mission anyway.

Enjoy and Review


Chapter 5: End of Prison Planet


PLANET: PRISON PLANET

AREA: "CHAOS"

"Lightning Fire Dragon: Firing Hammer!" Natsu's attack obliterated Bojack's KI blast. The Dragon Slayer's attack didn't stop and his fist crashed right into the smoke copy's face. Bojack's body bounced across the ground. "Lucy!"

"Open - Gate of the Bull: Taurus! Star Dress: Taurus Form!" Lucy's outfit changed once again in a bright light. She now wore a bra and sleeves with a cow pattern and pants that leave her right leg entirely revealed. She's wearing a pair of gloves and boots as well as a belt where Taurus' Zodiac sign is located and a bag around her waist. Her hair is tied into two buns, one at each side of her head but also leaving some hair hanging. In her hands was a whip that she cracked loudly.

"Earth Wave!" Lucy and Taurus shouted, striking the ground with their weapons. The earth beneath the pirate copy erupted, propelling the copy into the air.

"MOOOO! Nobody threatens Lady Lucy's boobs as long as I'm around!" Taurus declared.

"NOBODY WAS THREATENING MY BOOBS, YOU PERVERTED COW!" Lucy roared, smacking him with her whip. Taurus cried out in joy as Lucy's whip cracked him across the head.

Natsu boosted himself above Bojack's body and raised his hands above his head. "Lightning Fire Dragon: Brilliant Flame!" The giant ball of fire and lightning smashed into the copy with devastating force, blasting him into the ground. Natsu smirked at the huge crater his attack had created. "Ha! Let's see him get up from that!"

Black smoke emerged from the crater that Natsu had created, reforming Bojack with no form of injuries present. "What the hell!? How the hell does he keep coming back!?" Natsu yelled.

Lucy ran up next to him. "I'm not sure, but there's no way we can keep this up. If they can just keep coming back, then we'll eventually run out of energy."

"Then, I'll just bust his ass till he can't come back!"

"We've been doing that the entire time!" Lucy yelled at him.

Suddenly, Trunks and Erza touched down next to them. "No, Natsu might not be completely wrong here." Trunks said.

A pillar of ice clashed with a KI blast; Gray came flying over to the two from the collision. He looked at his allies. "Natsu being right? Sounds a little too far-fetched."

"Say that again, ice-punk!" Natsu pushed his forehead against Gray's.

"With pleasure, fire-freak!"

BONK!

"Shut it, both of you!" Erza bashed the hilt of her swords on their heads. The two held their heads in pain, comically large bumps glowing red.

Wendy was flying above in the air, clashing with Turles. The Sky Dragon was being pushed back by the smoke Saiyan's stronger might. He created a ring of KI between his palms and blasted it at Wendy. The Sky Dragon puffed out her chest before bellowing out an attack. "Sky Dragon: Roar!" Her breath attack clashed against his and caused an explosion that sent Wendy flying further back.

That was until a golden tail wrapped itself around her waist, pulling her down towards the others. Wendy was surprised to see Cooler had grabbed her. "Cooler!?"

"Don't think that this is some change of heart, child. As I've said before, you are of use, and I refuse to play with these childish copies any longer!" Cooler declared. The golden alien touched down next to the group, releasing Wendy from his grasp. He turned his attention to Trunks. "If you have an idea, boy, then I suggest you spit it out now." As he said that all of the copies stood across from the group, grinning maliciously.

"If these guys can keep on reforming every time we beat them down, then we just need to hit them hard enough that it'll be impossible for them to reform." Trunks explained.

"So, the plan is to hit them until there's nothing left?" Erza clarified.

"Pretty much."

"Now, that's a plan I can get behind!" Natsu cracked his knuckles.

Cooler grunted. "Tch, guess we have no choice in the matter." His KI started to increase, his aura growing in size. Cooler raised a finger into the air, generating a massive KI ball of red-hot energy. "If any of you brats dare try to hold back, then I'll kill the lot of you myself!"

Fire and lightning crackled with ferocious intent. "I'd like to see you try, pal! I'm all fired up now!"

"Requip: Nakagami Armor!" Erza's armor changed once more. The knight was now wearing a short revealing robe that is tied together with an intricate ribbon at the waist. The armor features large pauldrons over each shoulder, bearing the image of a lion with an open mouth, and decorated greaves that match the motif of the armor. The entire set is complemented with a rhombus-shaped tiara and a large sash which loops above her head with the ends hanging out towards the ground with a bead on each end. The armor comes equipped with a large halberd possessing a circular handguard at its center. "Together, everyone!"

"Star Dress Mix: Leo x Virgo Form!" Lucy's outfit was now a mixture of Loke and Virgo with three pairs of wings on her back. A cross keys tattoo appears on the back of her left hand with each key representing Loke and Virgo.

Trunks' hair became even spikier as he ascended into Super Saiyan 2. He pulled his arms apart, generating a fuck-ton of power into his hands to mimic his father's strongest attack. "Final Flash!"

"Lion Maiden!"

"Nakagami Starlight!"

"Ice Devil's Zeroth Destruction Bow!"

"Dragon Slayer's Secret Art - Shattering Light: Sky Drill!"

"Supernova!"

"Dragon Slayer's Secret Art - Crimson Lotus: Exploding Lightning Blade!"

BOOOOOM!


BOOOM!

Hatchiyack turned around to the sound of the explosion, making the mistake of taking his eyes away from Ozotto. "Fool! Always keep your eyes on your opponent!" Ozotto capitalized on his opponent's downed guard, blasting the smoke machine that Hatchiyack was defending, and destroying it completely. As soon as Hatchiyack realized what had happened Ozotto landed a devastating kick into his chest, knocking him into the mountain. A small orange ball rolled from the hole Hatchiyack was in.

"And thank you for the Dragon Ball." Ozotto picked up the Six-Star Ball, which brought him even closer to his goal. All he needed was the final ball that Cumber still had in his possession. The demon's eyes widened as he felt several energy signatures heading his way. Turning his head, he saw Cooler, Trunks and Fairies rushing towards him. "Seems you managed to find me."

"It was simple once your energy spiked!" Cooler exclaimed. "Now give me those Dragon Balls!"

Ozotto hummed teasingly before raising his hand. "I think I'll keep these balls; I still have use for them. You, however, have served your purpose."

"I'LL CRUSH YOU!" Cooler declared, using the energy he had left to rush the demon with the intent to crush his skull.

"Cooler, wait!" Trunks tried to stop him, but a familiar black mist started to surround him and the Fairies.

"H-hey, what the hell!?" Natsu tried to break out of it but the mist was pulling him in.

"N-Natsu!" Lucy cried before she was swallowed up.

"Lucy!"

"G-gah!" Gray cried as he was sucked into the mist. Both Wendy and Erza were dragged down into it as well.

"Gray! Wendy! Erza!" Natsu cried out their names. He looked towards Trunks to see that the half-Saiyan had been dragged through, leaving him as the last one. There was nothing he could do and the last thing he saw was Cooler getting swallowed up by the black mist before he could even reach Ozotto.


PLANET: PRISON PLANET

AREA: "GREEN"

"GYAH!"

Mai and the Exceeds turned around to see a portal of black mist open up, spitting out all of their friends and Cooler. "Trunks!"

"Natsu!"

"Wendy!"

Lucy grunted as she laid in the burnt grass. She felt a strong pressure on her chest and lower area for some reason, opening her eyes the Celestial Mage found Natsu's hands squeezing her breast and the Dragon Slayer's face was right between her legs. "KYAAAA!"

"Hm?" Natsu grumbled. He looked up from his position and realized that he was on Lucy. His face brightened up seeing that she was alright. "Lucy, you're okay!" His bright smile vanished as Lucy's foot kicked him in the gut, knocking him off of her.

"Lucy Kick!" She cried out, blushing up a storm.

"Ugh, did that bastard teleport us back here?" Lucy turned to the direction of Gray's voice. Her eyes widened when she saw that Gray was missing a certain article of clothing and she wasn't the only one to notice.

"Gray! Your pants are gone!" Happy pointed out.

The Ice-Make Mage looked down and noticed that he was just in his black boxers. "What the!? I just had them! Where did they go!?" Gray jumped to his feet, searching frantically for his pants until he noticed that they were stuck on top of Cooler's head. "Hey, why the hell did you take my pants!?"

Cooler tore the pants off his head, leaving a large hole right in the middle of them much to Gray's horror. "As if I'd bother taking some pitiful form of attire!"

"My pants!" Gray picked up his ripped pants. His horror shifted to anger and glared at Cooler, pushing his fist into his palm. "Just because you run around naked all the time doesn't mean you can go around stealing other people's clothes!"

"As if I'm naked, you damn brat!" Cooler shouted at the mage. Sparks danced between the two as a fight was seemingly about to break out.

Erza opened her eyes; all of the shouting woke her back up. She was about to sit up until she felt a small feeling on her chest. Looking down, the knight saw a head of blue hair stuck between her breasts. Wendy was fighting for her life to not suffocate between her sister-figure's large bust.

"Wendy!" Carla cried out as she tried to pull Wendy's face out.

Erza reached and effortlessly freed Wendy before the youngest Dragon could die such a pitiful death. "Wendy, this is no time to be fooling around!"

The young Dragon Slayer's face was bright red and she grumbled at the accidental reminder that even at the age of 13 she was lacking heavily compared to most of her female friends.

Mai was helping Trunks back to his feet as the two watched the antics that Fairy Tail was getting into. "Do you think they always act like this?" Mai asked.

Trunks chuckled lightly. "Probably and I don't think I mind it too much." His expression quickly changed to serious as he felt the collision of power happening above them. The power felt very familiar but also different. "Mai, the person fighting right now… that's Goku and my father, right?"

"Yeah, that's Vegeta and Goku, alright right, but…" Mai paused and looked over to the side. Trunks followed her gaze and gasped at the sight of his father and Goku lying down on the ground, covered in wounds. If they were down here on the ground, then who…?

In the skies of Prison Planet, a furry version of Vegito was clashing with Cumber. The fusion was matching the Evil Saiyan blow for blow. He blocked a strike from Cumber and countered with a kick of his own, pushing the evil Saiyan back a few feet. Cumber's eyes were filled with fury, and he transformed into a Super Saiyan, shocking Xeno Vegito.

"His power is still rising!?" Xeno Vegito gasped.

"RAAAAAAHHHHH!" Cumber roared, his destructive KI was rampaging like an out of control beast. His spike in power caught the attention of the Fairies and Cooler, who stopped their own squabbling to watch the battle.

Fu, who was standing a bit away from everyone else, sighed about the dissolving events. "Maybe bringing them along was a mistake. If their powers rise any further, even the Prison Planet's seals won't hold." Even with things no longer going according to his plans, the scientific demon still couldn't help but be amazed by the overwhelming power being displayed. His eyes shifted over to the Fairies, especially Erza, who's energy signature is different from before. "Even these Fairies are more than I originally thought of them. Perhaps their world is something that I should examine a little more closely in the future."

Trunks hurried over to his father and Goku. "Goku, father! Can you two move? It might be time for us to get out of here." As he said that, both Goku and Vegeta climbed back to their feet. Trunks noticed just how calm Goku looked, his energy was rising weirdly.

Natsu sniffed the air, noticing that the smell around Goku was different than it was before. The Fire Dragon walked over to the Saiyan with Lucy and Happy following closely behind him. "This guy… something about him is changing."

"Not yet…" Goku said as his hair began to stick up weirdly, even more than it naturally looked. His eyes turned silver and the color of his hair shifted from black to pure white. Everyone other than Vegeta was shocked by Goku's change. "My match with him isn't finished yet!"

"Your match…" Trunks muttered.

Goku disappeared before they could get another word in, he reappeared right between Xeno Vegito and Cumber. The fusion was shocked to see one of his counterparts had white hair, not knowing that such a form even existed. Cumber attacked Goku with his KI, which proved fruitless as Goku dodged each attack easily and blasted Cumber in the stomach.

"It's over." Goku declared, preparing a Kamehameha.

"What even is that form!?" Trunks asked for everyone.

"It's Ultra Instinct." Vegeta answered. "It's a technique that separates the consciousness from the boy, allowing it to move and fight independent from one's thoughts and emotions."

Erza kept her eyes on Goku. "I've heard of something like that before, but most people aren't able to fully master such a technique. To think that there exists someone out there that can fully separate his mind from his body. Goku is one of a kind."

Natsu clicked his tongue. "So, what!? I don't need this Ultra Stink to kick ass."

"It's Ultra Instinct!" Lucy corrected him.

"Goku has the right idea though, this fight ain't over." Natsu grinned, cracking his knuckles.

"You wanna jump back into the middle of that, flame-brain!?" Gray yelled.

"Hell yeah! As if I'm just gonna sit on the sidelines-"

TING!

Everyone on the battlefield felt the sudden surge of KI sweep past them all. For some of them that sinister KI was familiar. "That KI… was that bastard's! He's somewhere close by!" Cooler realized, alerting everyone else.

Suddenly, the sky turned dark, and a bright pillar of light could be seen ascending into the sky. Trunks' eyes widened at the familiar sight. "The Dragon Balls! That demon guy must be summoning Shenron!"

"The fool made the mistake of not being far away enough before summoning it!" Cooler blasted off into the air to get his prize.

"Dammit!" Trunks exclaimed. "Guys! We can't let either of them get their hands on that wish!" He shouted at the Fairies.

"But what about-" Wendy was about to say that, but Vegeta cut her off.

"Don't worry about Kakarot, he can handle himself! The lot of you go stop that damn wish!" Vegeta ordered.

Natsu hissed, pissed that he couldn't stay to fight Cumber. "Happy!"

"Aye sir!" Happy grabbed his partner and took to the skies. Erza uses her flight armor to fly through the air, carrying Gray with her. Trunks gave one last look to his father and Mai before following the other Fairies.

Wendy rushed over to Vegeta and began to heal him. "The hell are you doing?" Vegeta asked.

"The others can handle that, but right now you need help." Wendy said, firmly.

"Tch. Dammit." Vegeta's gaze turned back to the battle between Goku and Cumber. "Damn you, Kakarot. Getting even further ahead."


PLANET: PRISON PLANET

AREA: "GREEN"

Ozotto watched as the almighty Shenron came to life in front of him. The wish granting dragon looked down at his summoner. "State your wish. I shall grant a single one, whatever it may be…"

"I don't need a wish to break free of this planet. No, I have but a single request! Grant me an undying, unagi-"

"DIE!"

That shout was the only warning Ozotto received to move as Cooler's foot crashed down into the spot he was standing on. The alien's foot had created a small crater that was inches away from the Dragon Balls. "Did you really think I would let you live and take my wish away!"

Ozotto felt a strong sense of annoyance since he first arrived on Prison Planet. "You couldn't just keep back like a good little pawn, could you?"

"As if I'll ever be a pawn in someone else's game!" A dark purple aura surrounded Cooler's body following his declaration.

Ozotto smirked. "You can't even transform anymore with that little power you have left. This fight will be child's play." His taunt elicited Cooler's fury even further, the gladiator-looking alien dashed right for him. Ozotto caught Cooler's fists, the two stopped in a deadlock. The demon's eyes widened as he felt himself being pushed back. "What!?"

"Unlike my useless little brother, I know not to waste my power like a fool!" Cooler declared. His body shifted into gold, shocking Ozotto. Cooler headbutted Ozotto, then brought up his knee into the demon's jaw. The demon was knocked into the air with Cooler blasting past him, then bashing the demon back down with a hammer strike. Cooler waited for the dust to settle and saw the demon standing back up with a few scratches on his body.

"Seems underestimating you was my mistake." Ozotto grunted, brushing off some of the dust on his body. "I'll hurry up and kill you, then get back to getting my wish."

"Seems my attack has knocked your brain loose a bit. I'll have crushed you before you could ever think about attempting to make another-"

"Fire Dragon: Talons!" A flaming kick caught Cooler off guard, blasting him into the ground. An explosion of fire and dust forced Ozotto to cover his face. The demon was slightly surprised to see Natsu arrive in front of him. The Dragon Slayer was glaring at Cooler, who was getting up from the attack. Natsu looked over at Shenron and gaped. "Oh! It really is a dragon!"

"You damn, brat! How dare you get in my way!" Cooler scowled at the Fire Dragon.

"I already told you, you bastard! I'm gonna kick your ass!" Natsu declared.

"You really think you stand a chance against me?" Cooler asked.

"Hell yeah I do! Erza gave me a boost on the way here! Which means I'm totally fired up! Lightning Fire Dragon Mode!" Natsu roared, blasting towards Cooler. "Lightning Fire Dragon: Sword Horn!" Like a blazing comet, Natsu crashed right into Cooler. The golden alien grunted before kneeing Natsu in his gut to knock him off. The Fire Dragon didn't let that stop him as he was knocked above Cooler. "Lightning Fire Dragon: Wing Attack!" The wave of fire and lightning blasted Cooler, a few feet away.

"Damn you!" Cooler unleashed a torrent of Death Beams at the Dragon Slayer. Natsu's eyes widened at the oncoming death beams, he pointed his fists at the ground. "Fire Dragon: Get Out of There!" He blasted fire at the ground to create a multitude of flame pillars to block the death beams. Though two of them managed to graze his arms, making him wince at the pain. Cooler dashed through the pillars before Natsu could do anything and slammed his knee into the Fire Dragon's gut, blood and spit were coughed out of him as he was dragged across the ground.

"Die, you damn insect!" Cooler roared, bringing down his fist.

"Lightning Fire Dragon: Firing Hammer!" Natsu returned. Their fists connected, creating a shockwave explosion that shook the ground. Natsu was blasted back from the clash, but Cooler was undeterred in his mission to end the Dragon Slayer's life.

"Burning Attack!"

Cooler jumped back to dodge the KI blast that would've done some damage against him. He watched as a golden blur dashed right at him, attempting to cut him in half with his sword. "Of course, you weren't far behind!" Cooler grunted.

"The games end here, Cooler! Just like Frieza, I'll cut you down too!" Trunks roared.

"Then by all means, try it, monkey!" Cooler roared.

Ozotto huffed at the battle that was happening, not that he cared too much. With Cooler being handled he was free to return to making his wish. The demon was about to approach Shenron once more until a blue spear stabbed the ground right in front of him. Ozotto looked up to see Erza and Gray touchdown right between him and Shenron.

The knight had on a different armor this time. Just like the spear it was golden and light bluish in color. The breastplate is decorated by golden trimmings, and has thin plates going up to surround Erza's neck. Her head is adorned by a band with two ribbons on it, and her hair gets styled in a long braid. Erza picked up her spear, pointing it at Ozotto. "I don't know what you have planned, but you won't be taking another step forward!"

Ozotto visibly glared at the two Mages. "I'm getting sick and tired of interferences. If you fools wish to die so badly, then I'll grant that wish personally!"

Black markings covered Gray's arm. "The only one going down today is you, demon!" Gray charged right at Ozotto, who put up his own guard. "Ice Devil's Zeroth Destruction Fist!" Two destructively powerful gauntlets formed over Gray's fists and crashed right into Ozotto's guard. The demon, who hadn't expected much from them, was genuinely surprised by how much the ice stung. His shock allowed Gray to continue with his barrage of punches, each one dealing Ozotto a crazy bunch of damage.

"GAH!" Ozotto pushed out a black energy shield to knock Gray away from him. The demon took a second to catch his breath. "How? How have you been able to hurt me like this!?"

Gray smirked. "My magic specializes in killing demons. Guess, I'm just the worst possible match-up for you, huh?"

Ozotto snarled. "No, it just means that I have to get rid of you first!" Ozotto prepared to blast Gray with a multicolored ball on his tail, but a streak of lightning caught him off guard. Erza used her spear, cutting off the demon's tail before he could unleash his attack, causing him to cry out.

She twirled the spear in her hands before unleashing a blast of lightning that shocked the demon. Ozotto hissed hatefully at the Erza and retaliated with a kick to her sides. The knight gasped before being slammed down into the ground from Ozotto's fist.

"Ice Devil's Laughter!"

Ozotto cried as shards of ice impaled his body like broken glass, the devil slaying magic burned his body. The demon turned to Gray and rushed him. "Blast Fist!" Ozotto's fist was covered in black KI.

"Ice-Make: Shield!" Gray created a shield of ice to protect himself from Ozotto's attack. The demon's attack destroyed the shield with little difficulty and went straight for Gray.

"Got you!" He cried until his fist shattered Gray like ice. "What!?"

"Ice-Make: Clone." Gray's chilling voice alerted the demon to turn around, only to be uppercutted by another ice gauntlet. The demon was blasted into the air, a red blur sped past him, revealing to be Erza in another type of armor. This was her Clear Heart Clothing. She wore white bandages around her chest and red baggy pants. The sword in her hand was dazzling with ice magic.

"Ice Devil's Chill!" She brought down her sword, slicing Ozotto's back and purple blood spewed out of the wound Erza had created.

"ENOUGH!" Ozotto roared, he was sick and tired of this fight. All he wanted was his wish and these miserable insects were getting in his way. This time he'd unleash his full power to deal with these pests and finally gain his-"

"Are you finally ready to make a wish?" Shenron's voice caught his attention. The demon turned his head to see Shenron looking down at a small blue cat, who was for some reason eating a fish.

"Aye sir! What was it that Erza told me again? Was it to wish for a bunch of fish?" Happy pondered.

"DAMN YOU!" Ozotto roared, rushing towards Happy.

"HAPPY!" Gray and Erza dashed to stop the demon from reaching the cat and dragon.

Trunks blocked a strike from Cooler as Natsu flipped over him and delivered an axe-kick to the alien's head. The Saiyan and Dragon unleashed a barrage of sword slashes and flame punches onto the alien, who was struggling to take the two on. He was losing power by the second and the combined symmetry of the two wasn't doing him any favors. He perked up when he felt a spike in KI, pushing the two back, Cooler turned to see Happy was about to make a wish on the Dragon Balls.

"DAMN YOU!" Cooler roared before rushing towards the dragon.

"HAPPY!" Natsu and Trunks chased after them. However, Natsu and Trunks stopped in their tracks when a portal made of shadows appeared in front of the two. Trunks was confused about what was happening, but Natsu felt a familiar chill at the sight in front of him.

"White Shadow Dragon: Rough Silk!"

Trunks was unprepared for the very thin string-like beams of light and shadows to attack him, they pierced through his skin and body, stopping the Saiyan momentarily. "What the!?"

"This magic… this smell… but that's impossible!" Natsu's eyes widened when a very familiar figure emerged from the portal. The person in front of them was someone that Natsu never expected to see again… at least not like this. "Rouge…"

The Rouge in front of him was a different Rouge from the one he knew. This one was dressed in a black and white jacket with a line going down the middle to separate them. Underneath the jacket was a black shirt with a sun-like insignia printed on the chest. His pants were just like the jacket, black and white with a golden belt tied around the waist. The buckle had the insignia of a dragon engraved on it. His boots were all white with gold linings around them, "Hello, Natsu Dragneel."


"HAPPY!"

Happy flinched, turning to see Erza and Gray screaming at him as Ozotto raced towards his location. The cat panicked, dropping his fish and turning to the dragon. "Crap! What was the wish again!?" He racked his brain, sweating incredibly as Ozotto was getting closer and closer. No matter how much Happy tried, he couldn't figure out what he was supposed to wish for. His fear for his life inevitably won over, making him shout out the one thing he wanted since arriving on the Prison Planet. "UGH! I WISH WE WERE ALL OFF THIS DUMB PRISON PLANET!"

Shenron's eyes glowed red. "Your wish has been granted!"

"NO-" Ozotto and Cooler were gone in a flash. Along with everyone else who was stranded on the Prison Planet. Though, right as the wish had been made, the clash between Goku and Cumber had grown so strong that the seals on the planet had shattered.

The Prison Planet was no more.


PLANET: EARTHLAND

Mirajane happily scrubbed the counter clean as the guildhall was as busy as ever. The eldest Strauss sibling hummed a happy tune to herself as she finished up her cleaning. "All done!" She congratulated herself. She was dressed in her usual dark red dress that she had grown fond of over the years.

"Wow, sis! This might be the cleanest I've seen the bar counter!" Mira's little sister Lisanna exclaimed. The youngest of the three Strauss siblings was dressed in a gray tank top with a cute kitty design and brown shorts.

"Thanks, Lisanna. Though I think it's because the guildhall has been quieter than usual. Usually Natsu starts a fight and I don't manage to get any cleaning done before another mess is made." Mira said.

"Now, that you mention it. Where is Natsu? Usually he and Happy are here and are possibly dragging Lucy along into whatever scheme they have planned." Lisanna scans the guild.

"The same could be said about Erza, Gray, Wendy, and Carla. They haven't been present all day and I know that they haven't taken a quest. So, what could be keeping them-"

PING!

"KYAAAAAA!"

BAM!

Everyone in the guildhall froze as several bodies suddenly dropped in out of nowhere. When the dust settled, everyone saw that it was Team Natsu. However, the group looked worse for wear, sporting multiple injuries and were frantically wondering where they were.

"A-are we back at the Guild!?" Wendy stuttered.

"Yes, I think we are, Wendy." Carla answered.

"I did it! I got the wish correct!" Happy cheered until Gray bopped him on the head.

"After almost forgetting it and screwing us all over!" Gray yelled.

"Sorry. Want some fish?" Happy offered him some fish.

"NO!"

Erza stood up, still in her Clear Heart Clothing. She scanned the guildhall, relieved to see that she and the others had made it off of the Prison Planet. The knight realized that the state of her and her team had caught everyone's attention.

"Erza."

The knight turned around to see Makarov coming over to them. "Master!"

"What's going on? Why are you all hurt and suddenly pop out of nowhere?" Makarov asked, concerned for the state of his 'children'.

"You see Master we-"

"Natsu?"

Everyone's attention turned to Lucy, who was searching around for her partner. "Natsu? Where's Natsu!? Why isn't he here with us!?" Lucy shouted frantically. That's when it clicked for the rest of her team that Natsu hadn't arrived with the rest of them.

"Natsu…?" Happy mumbled, now wondering if he had messed up the wish somehow.

"NATSU!"

Chapter End

NOTE: And that's the end of the Prison Planet segment of this story! Next, we'll be moving onto the "Core Area" Arc! Hearts and his gang finally get to really make their moves and clash with the Z-Gang and Fairy Tail.

Where did Natsu go? You'll find out soon.

I really wanted to move past the Prison Planet stuff, because there really wasn't much that I could do with it. That's why this chapter might seem a bit rushed. Sorry.

Next chapter will be a breather from all the fighting, so we won't be getting into the next set of action just yet.

Thank you all for reading and have a great day!
