Chapter 11:Galuna Island Part 3
Lucy was facing Sherry after Taurus gained control and returned to the Spirit World. The Celestial wizard have her whip out.
''You were able to close the gate even though I was in control.'' said Sherry.
''I guess that means I'm stronger than you.'' replied Lucy with a grin.
''Well, I don't know if I would take it that far.'' countered Sherry. ''Remember, my powers allow me to take control over any Celestial Spirit that you might call for.''
Lucy pulled out a Silver Gate Key. ''Don't be sure.'' she stated in relief. ''I've got a few powerful Spirits up my sleeve.'' she continued. ''Open, Gate of Canis Minor. Come, Nichola.'' she chanted as a blue magic circle appeared suddenly a little short and stout white creature with bland eyes and a golden horn-like nose reminiscent of a carrot, giving him a slight of appearance of a snowman.
This is Plue.
''Isn't he the cutest little thing?'' asked Sherry in a soft tone. ''Oh, I'm in love.''
''Would you quit talking about love all the time?'' demanded Lucy in disbelief 'Cause it's getting pretty old.''
''Well, someone's bitter.'' continued the Doll Attack wizard. She held both her hands as pink magic circles appeared. ''Marionette Attack!'' Now, you're my puppet.'' she chanted. Suddenly pink lightning hit Plue as his eyes turned pink now he's under Sherry's control.
''Hey, Plue?'' called out Lucy, Plue turned around to Lucy and glowed. ''No, not you too!''
Plue changed at Lucy and started attacking the blonde haired girl. However Plue was only attacking her legs. Sherry sweat dropped at this.
Lucy smirked.
''You're kidding me?'' questioned Sherry, shocked.
''I knew you'd fall for that.'' responded Lucy. She swung her whip at the pink hair girl but she dodged.
''You deliberately summoned a weak spirit.'' she stunned.
''That's right. I knew that if I called forth little Plue here, it would make you spell totally pointless.'' explained Lucy. The Celestial wizard swung her whip again at Sherry who dodged again.
While Plue continues attacking Lucy's leg.
''Jezz, I release you from command.'' stammered Sherry. Suddenly Plue's eyes turned back to normal as he was released from the Doll Attack wizard's spell. The Celestial wizard gasped and whimpered.
Lucy sweat dropped and weakly smiled. ''Oh, I know you didn't mean it.'' she reassured. ''Now, go back, okay?'' Plue disappeared in a puff of smoke.
''Marionette Attack! Get her, Rock Doll.'' chanted Sherry as rocks started engulfing from the ground.
''We're gonna keep going round and round aren't we?'' inquired Lucy, remarking. ''I'll stop your doll, with a spirit, you'll take control of it. And then I'l close its gate.''
However, the rocks that Sherry gathered and shapes into a massive monster resembling a golem.
''It's like we're playing Cat and Mouse.'' remarked Sherry. ''I love that game.'' she said on the top of Rock Doll's head. ''Let's see what you can do, little mouse. You think you can beat my Rock Doll?''
''Now I'm in trouble. I don't think I have a Spirit.'' reported Lucy with a sweat drop. ''Strong enough to destroy that thing.''
Before Lucy could do anything else the Rock Doll slammed its fist onto the ground, while Lucy easily dodged it on time. The Celestial wizard starts running from the rock monster before she dodged another fist attack.
''Bad! Bad! Bad! Oh, so very bad!'' she panicked.
''Don't let her get away, Rock Doll.'' commanded Sherry. ''Let's teach that foolish little girl a lesson.''
''Who are you calling a little girl?'' shouted Lucy, angering. ''We're the same age. I might even be a little older!''
''It's not a good idea to keep babbling like that.'' said Sherry with a sinister grin. ''Unless you want us to catch you.''
Lucy held out her key ring of Celestial Spirit Gate Keys. ''Okay, what Spirit do I have that can help me out in this situation?'' she squealed.
''You'd better hurry. If you don't start moving faster, we're gonna catch up with you.'' proclaimed Sherry.
The Rock Doll slammed on its fist on the ground and once again Lucy dodged it. The blonde-haired girl continued running until the Rock Doll held its foot up top of her.
''I command you to crush her flat.'' ordered Sherry.
The Doll Rock stomp its foot on the ground making Lucy fall on the ground. Suddenly the cliff and shattered...
''Hold on. Isn't this is a... A Cliff?!'' exclaimed Lucy.
However suddenly the cliff breaks apart and falling the screaming Lucy fell onto the beach.
''Finish her, Rock Doll!'' yelled Sherry.
The Rock Doll jumped off the cliff while Lucy was screaming and grunting and got off the way as the Rock Doll landed on the beach. The blonde Fairy Tail wizard runs away.
Sherry laughed. ''There's nowhere to run, Blondie.''
Lucy stopped as she was close to the ocean. ''The sea.'' she replied. ''I could summon Aquarius from here.'' she suggested.
Before she could, Sherry and her Rock Doll appeared behind her. The Doll Attack wizard laughed. ''It looks like the cat's finally going to catch the mouse.'' she commented.
''Water can't destroy that thing. Besides, Aquarius would just wash me away with them. Wait a minute.'' retorted Lucy.
Sherry laughed again. ''I'm going to crush you like a little bug. Sorry, no love for you.'' she told the Celestial wizard.
The Rock Doll slammed and crushed its fist on the ground again and Lucy once again dodged it.
''Wash me away, that's it.'' realized Lucy. She took out a Golden Gate Key. ''Open, Gate of the Water Bearer. Aquarius!'' she chanted as a light blue magic circle appeared on the water as Aquarius appeared.
''Aquarius? How does a weakling like you have a Spirit with that kind of power?'' demanded Sherry.
''That girl is our enemy. You hate her kind. So go get her!'' commanded Lucy.
But Aquarius just scoffed and ignoring Lucy's order.
''I DON"T HAVE TIME TO DEAL WITH YOU BAD ATTIUDE. GET OVER AND TAKE HER DOWN. NOW. '' scolded Lucy.
''Well, I see you're just as annoying as ever.'' replied Aquarius. ''No wonder you still don't have a boyfriend.'' she complimented.
''Jeez, why do you keep rubbing it in that?'' questioned Lucy.
''Marionette Attack!'' chanted Sherry as two pink magic circles appeared on her hands. ''You will now do as I command.''
Aquarius' eyes turned pink. ''What?'' she inquired. Now she was under Sherry's control.
''She's under my spell, so she won't do your bidding anymore.'' grinned the pink haired girl. ''Might as well send her back.''
''No way.'' argued Lucy. ''Aquarius is still my ace in the whole.''
''I bet you won't still think that when the sea washed away your pitiful existence. Now, Aquarius, get rid if this stupid girl once and for all.''
''What?!'' exclaimed the Celestial Spirit. The blue haired mermaid activated her orb and Water Magic. ''I already planning on it!'' she unleashed a huge wave of water, and it washed away Lucy.
''Say good-bye, little-Uh-'' Sherry was interrupted when the wave was coming towards her as well and she too was washed away. ''Wait!'' she cried.
Both girls were swirling around in a whirlpool screaming. While Aquarius was watching with a smirk. ''And I thought the blonde girl was stupid. I can close my own gate, thank you very much. Buh-bye.'' in a flash of light she returned to the Spirit World.
When the torrent wave as gone, both Lucy and Sherry were now on the beach, lying on the ground, weakly. Lucy got back up with swirling eyes. ''Leave it to Aquarius to hurl her waves against friend and foe alike.'' she muttered.
Sherry groaned as she got back up with swirling eyes as well. ''I hate myself for allowing you to trick me again.''
''But it doesn't matter because she wasn't strong enough to destroy my Rock Doll.'' she pointed out.
''And so, what? That puppet of yours can't do anything if you're not there to control it.'' countered Lucy. ''I knew that all I had to do was get you away from that thing. And it worked because now you're too dizzy. To even walk in a straight line.''
Both girls bumped into each other. Glowing and the two fight in a puff of dust.
''That's what you for messing with a member of Fairy Tail.'' groaned Lucy.
''I can't believe we ended up in a stalemate.'' argued Sherry.
''What do you mean, stalemate?'' asked Lucy. ''I'm obviously the winner here.''
''You can't just declare yourself the winner of a fight.'' confirmed Sherry. ''If that's the case, then I'm the winner.''
''I don't think so!'' cried out Lucy in disbelief. The Celestial wizard elbow her arm across Sherry's chest.
''No! How'd this happen to me?'' inquired Sherry in relief. ''I never lose.''
''Oh, yeah? Well, you just did...To a wizard from Fairy Tail.'' declared Lucy with a smug as the sun was raising up.
Sherry's Rock Doll shattered into pieces as its wizard was defeated.
Sherry was thinking of Lyon. ''Although the burning flame of my life has been extinguished far too soon, my love for you will blaze on eternally, Cold Emperor. '' she fantasized.
''You're not gonna die, so let's tone down the drama, okay?'' asked Lucy.
Shery landed on the ground. ''Angelica, avenge your Master's death.'' she gasped.
''Huh?'' asked Lucy, confused.
Suddenly the giant rat known as Angelica jumped off the cliff.
''But I thought that rat was one of her puppets.'' exclaimed Lucy as she fell on the ground. ''I can't move my legs for some reason.''
Angelica was coming towards her and crashed her with her belly.
Suddenly, Angelica was slashed through the chest by a magic sword. And the attacker was other than Erza Scarlet. Who just arrived on the island and the Re-Quipped wizard landed on the ground. Angelica fell on the ground, unconscious next to her Master.
Erza turned around to faced Lucy who back on her feet and smiled at her teammate.
''Erza!'' she cheered. The redhaired girl gave her a scary glare. ''Whoa. I forgot. She's mad at us because we broke Guild rules and took an S-Class Reques without permission.''
''Lucy.'' spoke Erza. ''I assume you know why I'm here. You do. Don't you?'' she demanded in relief.
''To take us back?'' wondered the Celestial wizard. ''Promise you won't hurt me? Promise you won't hurt me? Promise you won't hurt me? Promise you won't hurt me?'' she echoed in her thoughts.
Happy arrived, flying through the air with his angel wings. ''Hey, I've been looking all over for you.'' he told Lucy. ''I'm glad you're okay. I was wor-'' he was cut off when noticed Erza in front of the whining and nervous Lucy.
Happy turned around tried to fly away, but Erza caught him and grabbed his tail. The blue cat was hanging upside down.
''Now where is Natsu?'' asked Erza in disbelief.
''Listen. I'm sorry we came here without permission.'' began Lucy. ''But some really awful things have happened on this island. There's this guy and his minions who're trying to revive a frozen demon. And the island's villagers are suffering because of this magic spell they're using. They've turned into monsters. We just thought that if we worked together, we might be able to help them.'' she explained.
''None of that is my concern.'' stated Erza.
''Please, Erza, let us finish this job.'' begged Lucy. ''We can't leave things this way.''
Erza took out her sword and pointed the blade at her face. ''I don't think you understand. The three of you have betrayed Master Makarov. You'll be lucky if you away with your lives.'' she glared.
''Okay, now I'm scared.'' panicked Lucy in her thoughts.
The Next Day...
Gray woke up, he noticed two things, first, that he was a tent, but otherwise ignorant of his surroundings. Second, the pain in his body had lessened greatly. With some effort, he stood up, noticing that someone had bandaged his torso, shoulders, and head.
''Where am I?'' he asked himself.
Stepping out of the tent, Gray shielded his eyes against the afternoon sun. Around him was mass of tents, similar to the village, but it was clearly located somewhere else.
''Oh, thanks goodness. I'm glad you're awake. '' Gray turned and see one of the village girls.
''What is this place?'' asked Gray, careful not stare at the girl's cursed leg, which was blue and almost insect-like.
''It's a storage are, not too far from the village.'' answered the girl. ''Everything was destroyed in the attack last night, so we decided to come here for shelter.''
''The whole village was destroyed?'' asked Gray, horrified. ''That's horrible.''
Then he remembered Lyon ordering his lackeys to raze the village and kill everyone in it. ''I can't believe. They actually went and did it.''
''You now, it was a miracle that Natsu, Lucy and Ben were here; thanks to their bravery, everybody was able to make it out alive.''
''So, are they still around here somewhere?'' inquired Gray.
''Yes, they actually wanted me to show you to their tent once you'd finally woken up. '' answered the girl.
''Which tent?'' aske the Ice-Make wizard.
''They're waiting for you in that big one right over there.'' she pointed.
Gray made his way over to the tent and walked inside. For a moment, he went cross-eyed with his teammate Erza Scarlet, who sat calmly, her legs crossed, and her hands folded over her lap, her eyes told of a very different, very violent mood. Next to her were Lucy and Happy, who are tied up and looking thoroughly miserable.
''You made me wait. Not smart.'' said Erza in a calm, yet dark, tone.
''Erza! yelled Gray. ''Why are they tied up?''
''Lucy's got me up to speed with everything that's happened.'' replied Erza. ''I thought you were sent here to stop these fools. Needless to say, I'm disappointed.'' she stood up.
'Where, are Ben and Natsu, anyway?'' asked Gray.
''That's something we'd all like to now.'' responded the redhaired girl.
''That last time I saw them; they were fighting against the Cold Emperor's lackeys. But when we went back to where the village was, there wasn't any sign of him. Wherever they are, I hope they's okay. ''explained Lucy. ''Anway since we couldn't find them, Erza demanded that we take her to you, I don't where you ended up.''
''So, I did some scouting from the air. And from up there, I could see that the villagers had moved into this storage area.'' added Happy.
''Okay, we're going to search for Natsu and Ben and then we're going back to the Guild.'' retorted Erza.
''But we can't leave the island just yet!'' objected Gray. ''If Lucy filled you in, then you know what these villagers are going through!''
''And what would be your point? I came here solely for the purpose of taking you all back to the Guild. I'm not interested in anything other than that.'' Erza barely glanced at him.
''Seriously!?'' shouted Gray. ''Have you even seen the people on this island?''
''I have.'' answered Erza.
''And you're just gonna turn your back on them?!'' demanded Gray, shocked at what he was hearing.
''Their request is pointed on the Request Boards of every Guild Hall. The villagers would be better served by wizards who are cleared for S-Clas quests. You, on the other hand, are not qualified.'' she replied.
''How can you be so heartless?'' accused Gray.
Erza whirled around, furious. ''What did you say!?'' As Gray called her heartless, and cold she acted.
Even though as a wizard, she did everything in her power to make sure the innocents were spared from pain and suffering. However, the safety of her Guild, her family and friends, would always presence and helping and the safety of people that never met. Because her teammates have broken the rules, and came to island to help these people, because is the right to do. If she had to live with guilt over that later, she would, but the guilt would be tempered by the knowledge that those she cares for were safe.
A red magic circle appeared in front of her hand, and a sword emerged. She grabbed the hilt and pointed the blade at Gray.
''If you break the Guild's rules, then you will face the consequences.'' she told him.
Gray flinched but studied himself. To everyone's shock, he grabbed the blade and placed the tip over his chest, right above his blue Guild mark.
''Do what you must.'' declared Gray, steel in his voice. ''I can't walk away from what I know is right.''
For what seemed like an eternity, neither Gray nor Erza broke eye contact. Finally, Erza lowered the sword and Gray walked to the tent-flip.
''I'm seeing this through to the end, and you can't stop me.'' proclaimed Gray before he walked out.
After he was gone, trembled in anger, before leveling a glare at the bound Happy and Lucy, causing them to panic. They thought that Erza would take her rage out on them.
''We're sorry!'' shrieked Lucy. ''We have no control over any of them!''
''Gray's not feeling too good, because he lost a fight with his old friend!'' added Happy desperately.
Faster than either of them could blink, Erza swung her sword, slicing through the ropes that held them.
''These events are intolerable, but we'll deal with the immediate problem first; we're going after them!'' ordered Erza.
''Hooray!'' cheered Lucy and Happy.
''This doesn't change anything.'' growled Erza. ''You're still going to face punishment.
Their faces fell. ''Yes, ma'am.'' they replied in union.
The Forest...
Ben and Natsu were walking through the forest on the path to the temple. After walking for about a half hour the duo arrived at the front of the temple.
''Oh man, this suck.'' groaned Natsu as they finally made to the temple. ''I came up with a great plan, but then we fell asleep!''
''At least we finally make it.'' said Ben. ''Now, let's go stop them from awakening that demon.'' he smirked.
''Oh yeah!'' grinned Natsu. ''I'm all fired up!''
''Yeah! It's Hero Time!'' exclaimed Ben.
The Temple...
Lyon started at his remaining subordinate, his arms crossed. ''How pathetic, you're the only one still standing, Toby?'' he asked.
The dog-boy in question shifted nervously, sweat growing on his brow.
Lyon sat down on a throne made of stone. ''Those Fairy Tail wizards...they're quite impressive, and clever too, if they were able to trick you into paralyzing yourself.''
Toby flinched, putting one hand against the bandage on his forehead. ''Hey, can we keep the whole 'shocking myself' thing a secret?'' he asked.
''This unfortunate turn of event could put the resurrection of Deliora in jeopardy.'' spoke a new voice.
Toby jumped at the sudden appearance of a small, hunched man who wore red clothes, a gray cloak and a red, horned mask that covered the upper half of his face. His mouth, the only visible part of his face, showed a wide grin.
Lyon his surprise well, not even batting an eye. ''Zalty, you're as stealthily as ever.'' she commented.
The man now known as Zalty was an enigma to Lyon and his allies; though he had provided them with good information, he never cowered nor groveled before Lyon's power.
''If all goes as planned, the demon should awaken at some point tonight, but we have to keep an eye on those wizards. If they were to interrupt the Moon Drip ceremony, then Deliora would forever entomb in ice. Salamander, Titania, and that Take-Over wizard are very powerful, and there is a good chance that they could foil our plans.'' remarked Zalty.
''As always, you seem remarkably well-informed. However, I can't say that I'm worried. Those fools may be strong, but they're no match for me.'' replied Lyon calmly.
''I was hoping you'd say that, so it's very reassuring to hear. Still, allow me the honor of joining you in battle.'' requested Zalty.
''Hope up...you're a wizard?!'' asked Toby, shocked.
''Yes, it's been a while since I used it, but I've dabbled in a particular kind of Lost Magic.'' he answered.
Lyon considered it for a moment. Zalty hadn't done anything to betray his cause. ''Sure, we could use another wizard.'' he responded.
Zalty opened his mouth to say something but was interrupted when the temple suddenly begins to shake!
''Is it an earthquake?'' questioned Toby worriedly.
''I don't think so.'' replied Lyon. The shakes were coming in little bursts, not a long quake, and it seemed to be happening on only one side of the temple. Toby, however, hadn't figured it out yet. ''It's all coming down!''
Finally, with one last rumble, the temple suddenly titled to one side, nearby causing, Lyon, Toby, Zalty to lose their balance and fall. They thought that it was over, but then a blast of fire ripped its way up through the floor, nearby frying them.
''What is the meaning of this?!'' demanded Lyon.
Zalty looked into the hole in the floor and grinned. ''I should have known that Salamander would make the first move, though he'd come alone; it seems he brought his Take-Over wizard friend with him.''
Below them, several levels of the temple down stood Natsu, and Ben as Armodrillo.
''Ya know I usually end up breaking things on accident it's kind of funny how hard it is when I'm trying to do it on purpose.'' said Natsu.
''What are two doing here?!'' demanded Lyon, enraged.
''We're knocking this place over.'' retorted Natsu.
''Yeah. That way, you won't be able to shine moonlight on the demon!'' exclaimed Armordillo.
''How dare you!'' raged. ''Who do you think you are?!''
''Just two guys. Who gonna kick your butts.'' said Armodrillo cockily.
Natsu decided to not engage in any sort of banter; instead, fire shot out of the bottom of his feet, propelling hum upwards like a rocket.
''Didn't know he could do that.'' remarked Armodrillo. He then slapped the Omnitrix symbol, engulfing his body in a flash of green light.
When the green light died down standing in his place was a plasma-based-life form whose body is composed of a super-hot yellow inner plasma body covered by dark red volcanic rocks. As a fire-based entity, his body radiates high amounts of heat. His feet have a slight oval-like design with only two toes and one back toe. His collarbone resembles a volcano which generates a fiery ''hair.' that coves his head, leaving a mask-like face visible with no or ears. He wears the Omnitrix symbol on his chest while a red Fairy Tail Guild mark on his left shoulder.
''Heatblast!'' he shouted in a deep raspy voice.
Heatblast launched himself with his pyrokinetic flight behind Natsu, they ended up on the top floor.
By then, Natsu had wrapped his own body in flames and collided with Lyon head-first. ''Fire Sword's Sword-Horn!'' he chanted; he and Lyon were nearby at the celling when the ice wizard's body began to crack like glass and then shattered.
''Dude! Natsu, did you just kill me?!'' screamed Heatblast.
''No, he didn't. He hit my Ice Fake.'' Lyon's voice came from behind them. ''Let's see you dodge in midair!'' Lyon held out his hand. ''Ice Make: Eagle!'' he chanted.
The flock of Ice Eagles darted, Natsu then shot fire into the air which sent him down to the floor so he wouldn't get hit by the ice birds while Heatblast shot himself up to dodge them. Both fire users fired blast of flames at Lyon. Lyon managed to dodge again, but in doing so, he ended in midair, allowing both Natsu and Heatblast to send their respective ranged attacks at the Cold Emperor.
Just before the attacks could it, Zalty held out his hand, and the floor beneath the two suddenly grew brittle and turned to dust, sending the two plummeting to lower levels of the temple.
''Very, Cold Emperor, luck is on your side.'' remarked the masked man.
Luck, however, wasn't on the side of Toby, who had been scorched by one of Natsu and Heatblast's attacks. ''Can we keep the whole 'Toby' got charred' thing a secret too?'' he whined pitifully.
''What did you do?'' asked Lyon, suspicious of Zalty's unknown magic.
''Whatever do mean?'' asked Zalty.
''Don't play dumb with me.'' snapped Lyon. ''Your magic had to have caused that hole in the floor.''
''Heh, don't you have ever the watchful eye?'' commented Zalty. ''Please allow to explain actions, sir. You're the only one strong enough to defeat Deliora, so it's imperative that you remain safe until his resurrection.''
The air around Lyon became dense with a cold fog. ''Are you suggesting that I could fall victim to such paltry magic?'' he inquired.
With a twitch of his finger, the floor, walls and ceiling of the room they were in became coated in a thick of ice. The only parts that didn't freeze over were the parts of the floor that stood on, and the hole that Natsu and Heabtlast had fallen through.
''Leave me.'' commanded Lyon, just as Heatblast and Natsu climbed back up. ''I can take care of this myself. Once I finally defeat the demon, everyone will worship my name, Gold Emperor Lyon. I've worked too hard to let these two brats tarnish this day.''
''Since he's liking the cold so much. Have about an ice battle?'' suggested Heatblast.
The Pyronite slapped the Omnitix symbol on his chest, as his engulfed in a flash of green light. When the green light died down standing in his place was a blue and black moth-like alien.
''Big Chill!'' he shouted in an eerie voice. He unfolded his wings.
''And what this Take-Over can do?'' asked Lyon.
Big Chill smirked and held out his hands. ''He can do this.'' he fired two ice beams from his hands and shoot at the Ice-Make wizard. But Lyon dodged them.
''What the?!'' he exclaimed in shock.
''You're not the only one with ice powers.'' said Big Chill.
''You're really think you two can defeated me?'' demanded the Cold Emperor.
''This guy is a bit of himself, huh?''' Big Chill asked Natsu.
''Yeah.'' agreed Natsu, and then directed his attention back to Lyon. ''Why do want to fight Deliora? The thing looks half dead already! You're going to all of the troble to melt that ice just so you can fight it?'' he asked.
''When you put it like that, it does sound stupid.'' commented Big Chill.
''I must rise above Ur's legacy.'' declared Lyon, even as he sent another wave of Ice Eagles at the two. ''I will not rest until I have fullfed my dream!''
''Why got this far?'' asked Natsu, dodging the attack, while Big Chill turned intangible. ''Can't you just challenge Ur and be done with it?''
''I would if I could!'' snapped Lyon. ''But Ur has been dead for years, and it's all Gray's fault! If he hadn't challenged Deliora to a fight, Ur wouldn't had to sacrifice herself to seal the demon away!''
Natsu remembered Gray telling him that Ur had sacrificed everything fighting Deliora. ''I didn't know that she'd died sealing it.''
Distracted by the revelation, Natsu didn't the Ice Eagle until it was inches from his fac, it was only stopped when Big Chill's wind breath blew it away.
''Hey man.'' Big Chill directed his attention on the spiky, white-haired wizard. ''I get that you're angry but what you're doing is hurting innocent people. I never knew Ur, but if she was willing to sacrifice her life to stop Deliora, I'm pretty sure she'd want to you what you're doing.''
''How dare you!'' Lyon sent a wave of ice at Big Chill, who turned intangible letting the ice phased through him.
Lyon was doing an admirable job of fending off his opponents, matching move-for move. Still, all three fighters knew that sooner or later, Lyon would either make a mistake or simply run out of energy, while Natsu and Big Chill seems to have plenty of energy to spare.
''Do yourself, and us, a favor and just give up!'' demanded the Necorofriggian.
''I'd never give you that satisfaction.'' replied calmy Lyon.
''Oh, you're asking for it.'' said Natsu, his wrapped in falmes.
Just as they were about to clash again, the wall next to them began to crack, until it shattered, revealing Gray!
''Good to see you on your feet, Gray.'' stated Big Chill. ''Where, are Lucy and Happy?''
''They're fighting those robed goons. They shouldn't have too much trouble. Now, both of you back off, it's time Lyon and I ended this once and for all.'' Gray told Big Chill and Natsu.
''No way, Man! You already lost to him once!'' stuttered Natsu.
''And it won't happen again. ''countered Gray confidently. ''I'm ready this time.''
''You seem awfully cocky.'' responded Lyon.
The raven-haired wizard was quiet for a moment. ''You were right, Lyon. I am responsible for Ur's death.
Lyon's eyes narrowed.
''But you're no better.'' continued Gray. ''You threatened my friends, brought harm to the villagers and now you're trying to destroy what Ur gave her life to create. It's time we faced our punishment together.''
Gray widened his trance, stretching out his arms, and then crossing them at the wrists. While Big Chill and Natsu were confused, Lyon looked absolutely terrified.
''That stance...not the Iced Shell!'' he stunned.
Both Big Chill and Natsu were shocked; they knew that Ur had used the spell Iced Shell to seal Deliora away. It was also what killed her. Was Gray planning to make the same sacrifice?
''Are you insane?'' demanded Lyon. ''You wouldn't dare!''
''If you want to live, change the villagers back to their human forms, and then leave this island and never return!'' yelled Gray. An icy-blue magic circle appeared under Gray's feet. ''If you'll agree to that, I'll stop; otherwise, this is the end.''
Lyon's confident smirk returned. ''Is that so? Well, I don't believe a word of it. You're bluffing!''
In response, a torrent of ice began to spread from the magic circle.
''No, I'm not.'' responded Gray, his tone deadly serious.
''You'll die!'' Lyon tried use his own magic to block the attack, but it was blown away by the sheer power of Gray's spell.
''Don't do it!'' shouted Natsu.
''Come on, man, this isn't how you should stop him!'' yelled Big Chill.
''All these years, I've lied to myself.'' retorted Gray. ''I didn't want to admit that Ur died because of me, but she did, and it's time I took responsibility. So, I will here and now. I'm not afraid to die, if that what it takes!''
''Stop this now!'' screamed Lyon.
''What's it going to be, Lyon?'' questioned Gray. ''Are we going to die, or are we going to live? It's up to you!''
''You wouldn't. You're not brave enough to give your life! You're too much of a coward!'' snarled Lyon.
''Just watch me.'' whispered Gray. ''Natsu, Ben and all my friends in Fairy Tail, the rest is up to you.'' he thought. ''I don't want to leave, but my time is up.''
''Iced Sh...''
Gray's spell was interrupted when Big Chill created ice fists with his ice constructs and smashed them on his head. Gray fell to his knees, giving Natsu enough time to force his arms behind his back.
''What the heck do you think you're trying to pull?!'' demanded Big Chill.
Ben almost never swore, but he couldn't help in the face of Gray's stupidity.''
''What about you two?!'' shot back Gray, struggling to break Natsu' arm-lock. ''When I got here, the first thing I said I was to get back!''
''And I said no way!'' growled Natsu.
''I've got a score to settle with this guy!'' protested Gray.
''How is killing yourself 'setting a score?'' asked Big Chill. ''If anything, dying and leaving us to clean up the mess just makes you a coward.''
Gray flinched, and then slumped. He hadn't consciously thought about it, but perhaps he really had been using the Iced Shell as an excuse to escape the guilt. While he felt terrible about what happened to Ur, the thought of leaving his friends to pick up the pieces after he was gone made him fell even worse.
Before Gray could apologize, the room began to shake,
''Oh, what now?'' asked an exasperated Natsu.
The room, as well as the rest of the temple, had been resting at an angle; however, it was now falling back to its original position. In a few moments, it was if the damage that Natsu and Ben had inflicted had never happened.
Natsu let go of Gray and began stomping the ground in frustration while Big Chill was just confused. What the heck had happened?
''This is bad.'' said Gray, getting back up. ''Now the moon's gonna shine on Deliora!''
''Pardon the interruption. '' announced Zalty, entering the room. He had slipped out during the fight between Lyon, Natsu, and Big Chill.
''I should have known.'' realized Lyon calmy. ''You did all this?''
''The moon will be out soon.'' replied Zalty. ''So, I thought I'd straighten the temple for you.''
''That weirdo fixed the temple all by himself?'' asked Gray; impressed by the level of power that much have required.
''And after the trouble we went through to mess it up, too.'' complained Natsu. He then shook his fist at Zalty. ''Hey, so what'd you do to fix it, huh?''
Zalty looked at Natsu in surprise as if noticing him for the first me, and then laughed manically.
''TELL ME HOW YOU FIXED IT, YOU JERK!'' screamed Natsu.
''Well, if everything else is in order, I'll go prepare the Moon Drip ceremony.'' stated Zalty before running off down a corridor.
''Would you quit ignoring me, you masked freak!'' shouted Natsu as he began to chase after him.
Big Chill turned to Gray and spoke. ''I should go after Natsu so he doesn't hurt you can handle Lyon without sacrificing yourself?'' he asked.
''Yeah, I can on ahead.'' replied Gray.
''Got it.'' responded Big Chill. He slapped the Omnitrix symbol, as his body engulfed in a flash of green light.
When the green light died down, he was replaced by...
''XLR8!'' he shouted in a raspy voice. He raced after Natsu in a black and blue bur.
''My. My.'' stated Lyon. ''Such a boisterous group you are.''
''Let me ask you something, a second ago, when I was gonna freeze us both, were you counting on either of them to stop me before I could finish?'' inquired Gray.
''No, the opposite in fact. I never thought that anyone would be foolish enough to get near a spell like that.'' answered Lyon.
''So, you were just going to stand there and take the hit?'' asked Gray, surprised.
''Exactly.'' replied a smug Lyon. ''Because someone would come to rescue me. ''You, on the other hand, would be finished for good.''
''I should have known.'' murmured Gray to himself.
''Certainly, it would have been inconvenient.'' continued Lyon. ''However, my allies are as devoted to my cause as I am, and as long as we're on this island, they can use Moon Drip to melt the ice whenever they saw fit.''
Gray looked down. ''I didn't think of that. I guess the Iced Shell is completely useless here.'' ''And my sacrifice would have been for nothing.'' he thought; at that moment, he was grateful that Ben had stopped him when he did.
''Even so, you still want to fight?'' After what happened last time.'' asked Lyon.
Gray didn't reply.
''Don't fool yourself, you could never...'' laughed Lyon.
''That's enough.'' interrupted Gray.
''What?'' stammered Lyon.
''Just forgot about Deliora.'' stated Gray softly.
''What kind of nonsense is this?'' asked Lyon, genuinely confused. ''Your threats don't work, so you turn in begging? Does your Guild have dentist that removes your fangs, or are just a coward?''
''Lyon, there's something I have to tell you.'' announced Gray.
''What is it?'' asked Lyon, now annoyed.
''Ur... is still alive.'' answered Gray.
''Natsu, slow down a second!'' yelled XLR8 as he ran after the Fire Dragon Slayer.
''No way!'' called back Natsu, chasing the still fleeing Zalty. ''Not until he tells me how he fixed the temple!''
Finally, Zalty stopped running and pointed his hand at the spot above Natsu; a chuck of the celling loose and felt right at him!
In a blur XLR8, grabbed Natsu of the way. ''See, that's why you should have waited for me!'' he shouted.
''Sorry.'' apologized Natsu sheepishly. He then noticed that Zalty wasn't done. The masked man waved his hand, and the chuck of celling lifted back to where it was the damage disappearing like it was never there.
''That's how I fixed the temple.'' explained Zalty.
''You reversed time, didn't you?'' asked XLR8.
From the way that Zalty whipped his head around to look at XLR8, he was completely surprised. ''Yes, I did. How did you figure it out so quickly?'' he asked.
''I know someone who can do the same thing, but he's a lot more powerful than you.'' replied XLR8, remembering his friend Professor Paradox.
''Hmph. Still, this magic is extremely rare, rare enough that is one of the Lost Magics, a type of Magic so powerful and dangerous that is had been lost to history.'' retorted Zalty.
''Your Dragon Slayer Magic is another example of Lost Magic.'' continued Zalty, looking at Natsu.
''Wow, really?'' asked Natsu.
''Seriously, dude?'' deadpanned XLR8. ''I thought people who used magic had to know their stuff before they could use it?''
Before Natsu could reply, Zalty laughed and vanished, much to the irritation of his opponents.
''Why is that time-users love to disappear like that?'' wondered XLR8.
Lyon didn't move a muscle, starling at Gray with wide eyes.
''Iced Shell doesn't actually its caster, it us their body to form the barrier; the ice keeping Deliora sealed away, which you've been trying to melt, is Ur. She isn't dead; she lives on in that ice.
Lyon just stared at him.
''I'm sorry that I never told you the truth back then.'' apologized Gray sincerely. ''Ur made me promise to keep it a secret. She worried that if you know, you'd spend the rest of your life trying to change her back.''
''Of course.'' mumbled Lyon.
''It's over.'' declared Gray, stepping closer to Lyon. ''There's no reason to go through with this anymore.''
Lyon raised his hand, but before Gray could react, he placed it against Gray's right side and sent an icicle straight through him! Gray fell of his knees, clutching the wound its agony; it didn't feel like it hit anything vital, but is still hurt.
''You idiot.'' spoke up Lyon. ''I know how the spell works. I can assure you that she isn't alive anymore. That's nothing more than a chunk of ice!''
Gray pulled the ice out his side and tried to rise. ''You... you knew all along?'' he asked.
''Knowing is one thing, believing is another, and if you truly believe that Ur is alive in there, then you're an even bigger than I thought.'' commented the white-haired wizard.
''You knew the truth?'' demanded Gray through teeth clenched in pain and rage. ''And you still did this?!''
''And what of it?'' asked Lyon as Gray got to his feet.
Before he could react, Gray had covered the distance between them and delivered a punch that sent him flying into the wall.
''I-Impossible!'' gasped Lyon in shock. ''How can you move with that wound?''
''Enough. I wanted to save you, but I give up now.'' snarled Gray coldly.
Lyon staggered to his feet. ''You want the title of star pupil for yourself? Well, I'm sorry, but I have to fight against Deliora soon, and I'd rather not waste my magic energy on you.''
Gray took a fighting stance. ''Then we'll just use our fists instead!''
''Ha! You want me to fight you without using my magic? That's fine by me.'' argued Lyon.
Gray made the first move charging forward, but Lyon moved around his punch and struck him in his wounds, nearby making hum fall to the ground again.
''Aim for your opponent's weak spot, then hit it with all your might.'' mocked Lyon. ''Ur taught us that, remember?''
''You have no right speak her name!'' exclaimed Gray as he attacked again, but Lyon drove his knee into Gray's put, winding him.
Stunned, Gray was left wide open for a barrage of punches and kicks from Lyon.
''What a shame, your fists are as we as your magic.'' muttered Lyon, sounding bored.
Every time Gray tried to attack, Lyon would counter, sending him hurtling to the floor or into a wall. Despite that, Gray actually started to smile. His own stubbornness reminded him of all the times that he and Natsu had thought when they were younger. He hadn't given up then, and he wouldn't give now! He got up one more time, seeing the sent Lyon into a rage.
''I should have killed you when I had to the chance!'' he yelled, both teens' fists hitting the other face's; for a moment, they were stuck like that, before a burst of strength from Gray sent Lyon crashing into another wall.
''You're gonna have to step up your game if you what to beat me!'' shouted Gray. Lyon rushed forward again and the two began exchanging hits. ''I've never given up before, and I won't give up here! I'm not going to lose to you!''
With a final roar, Gray sent Lyon flying, and this time, he didn't charge back in; instead, Lyon used a chunk of ice to drag himself upright, panting heavily.
''The Cold Emperor, defeated in battle by the likes of you?! I won't stand for it!'' he cried angrily.
''Then get over here, and fight!" called out Gray.
Gritting his teeth, Lyon pointed his hand at Gray. ''Ice Make: Ice Dragon!'' he chanted.
A giant dragon of ice flew at Gray, clamping its jaws on the black-haired wizard; fortunately, Gray was able to break the ice enough that he was able to fall out of the construct's mouth. Still, it was another painful wound.
''I thought we agreed not to use magic, Lyon!'' yelled Gray, getting back up.
''Don't be such a loser.'' argued Lyon. ''This duel was pointless from the start. Deliora will be revived either way; it's far too late to stop me now!''
''I won't stop trying!'' declared Gray definitely.
''Try to you want, but Zalty is preparing the Moon Drip ceremony as we speak.'' asserted Lyon.
''Natsu and Ben won't let him.'' countered Gray, smiling. ''The second you underestimate Natsu is the second you lose, and Ben had more tricks up his sleeve than anyone I've ever met. Your friend doesn't have a prayer.''
Zalty stood before the frozen form of Deliora, his grin in full force.
''At long last.'' he whispered, before the sound of yelling made him dodged a fiery punch.
''There you are!'' yelled Natsu. ''I'll burn that stupid smile right off your face!''
Zalty dodged another attack, it was diamond shard projectiles.
The diamond shards from a silicon-based life form whose body is composed entirely of blue diamond crystals, which are of a very hard and durable diamond-like substance. He sports six crystal shards on his back, two more on the front of chest and has a sharp head. His lower body, torso, and top of his head are consisted of indigo crystal which has black line and dots over it. His eyes are green. He wears the Omnitrix symbol on his chest and a green Fairy Tail Guild mark on the left side of his torso.
This Ben's Petrosapein Diamondhead.
''What part of 'wait until I'm in position' did you not understand?!'' he yelled at the Dragon Slayer.
''I couldn't help it.'' protested Natsu. ''He pisses me off!''
Zalty laughed. ''The term 'hot-headed' certainly applies to you, Salamander. By the way, how did you manage to find me?'' he asked.
''I followed my nose.'' answered Natsu. ''For some reason; you reek of lady's perfume.''
Diamondhead blinked and gave Zalty a pointed stare. ''You have issues, dude.'' he commented.
Zalty laughed it off. "'I'd love to stay and chat, but I have other things to do.''
''What, like trying on nail polish?'' joked Diamondhead but received no reaction.
''Like reviving Deliora.'' responded Zalty.
''Just forget about it already.'' said Natsu. ''It's not gonna happen.''
''Really?'' asked Zalty in mock-concern. ''Why us that, pray tell?''
''Because Gray is gonna kick that ice-guy's butt.'' retorted Natsu strongly.
''And we're gonna kick your butt!'' added Diamondhead.
''We'll just see about that.'' said Zalty in an almost-serious tone, and then pointed at Deliora.
To the shock of Natsu and Diamondhead, there was a stream of Moon Drip hitting the ice!
''Someone's performing the ceremony?'' asked Natsu.
''But I thought Gray said that Lucy and the others were taking care of it?'' wondered Diamondhead.
''They took out of the chanters, but Toby snuck out during the fighting and is performing the ceremony on his own. It won't be much Moon Drip with only one person, but it will only take a little more to free the demon anyway.'' confirmed Zalty.
Sure enough, a huge chunk of the ice began to crack and shatter, causing Natsu to panic.
''Ah! I gotta get up there and stop him!'' he rushed to the exit, buy Zalty used his magic to once again to send a chunk of celling falling at him. Natsu barley dodged in time.
''I'm afraid that neither of you are going anywhere.'' said Zalty with a sadistic smile. ''I guess chasing me was a mistake.''
''No, not getting you to shut you is a mistake! yelled Diamondhead, firing diamond shards at the masked man.
''Are you sure you want to do that?'' asked Zalty. ''You might make the ice melt faster.''
Natsu sent a breath of fire at Zalty's way, only barely missing him. ''If the ice could be melted with fire, you wouldn't had to go through! Bluff all you want, but once we're done here; all we gotta do is stop the ceremony!''
''And here I was, thinking you weren't that clever, but it seems that I was wrong.'' laughed Zalty.
Behind the combatants, the frozen body of Deliora began to shake; the vibrations were strong enough to make the entire temple shudder.
''Why do I get the feeling that wasn't Natsu or Ben?'' asked Gray, feeling the temple shake.
''The ceremony is nearing completion the ice sealing is melting away.'' explained Lyon.
''Ur...'' thought Gray.
''There's nothing you can do, it's too late to stop it! You and your friends have failed!'' proclaimed Lyon as any icy mist gathered around him. ''Do you have any idea how long I've waited for this, Gray? All these years, I've been gathering allies and obtaining knowledge; it was fortunate that I found this place.'' He sent a flock of Ice Eagles at Gray, who barely dodged them. ''It wasn't an easy task, transporting Deliora to Galuna, and the Moon Drip has taken three years!''
Backed into a corner, Gray raised an Ice Shield, letting the Ice Eagles shatter against it. ''You've been working on this stupid plan for three years?!'' he exclaimed.
''Stupid?!'' echoed an outraged Lyon. ''How dare you say that! You've spent the last 10 years peddling your life away in some foolish Guild!''
Finally, Lyon's barrage broke Gray's shield, but he was able to dodge Lyon's latest attack. 'Because I put my faith in what Ur taught us! She said that in the western counties, there were lots of strong wizards to teach me; so, I went West, and I joined Fairy Tail. I asked Mater Makarov if he knew anyway to break the spell, but he said there wasn't, expert for on way; he wouldn't tell me what it was, but I bet he was thinking about the Moon Drip.''
Gray looked at Lyon with cold hatred.
''After everything Ur did for us, taking us in, raising us, training us... you'd still kill her without a second though. You make me sick.'' he moaned.
''Say what you will, I don't care.'' responded Lyon. ''My entire life has led up to this moment. Our Master is long dead; if we want to prove that we have surpassed her, what can we do in her absence?'' a dragon head surrounded Lyon's hand, and he lunged at Gray. ''There's only one answer; Deliora I will surpass our Master by defeating what she could not!''
Gray boded and weaved, avoiding Lyon's attacks. ''I'll admit, that's a pretty ambitious plan, but I can't help but think that you missed the point along the way!'' Gray quickly created a sword of ice and shattered Lyon's dragon-fist. ''Someone as blind as you could never be better than Ur, not in a hundred years! Wake up, Lyon!''
Gray slashed his sword across Lyon's chest, but instead of falling to his knees, Lyon shattered into a pile of ice; it was another Ice Fake!''
''Fooled you, didn't I?'' asked Lyon from behind him. ''Ice Make: Snow Tiger!'' he chanted.
A giant tiger of ice leaped at Gray who, despite his wounds, did an impressive backflip over the beast and pointed his palms downwards.
''Ice Make: Prison!'' An ornate cage appeared around the tiger, trapping it.
Gray stood on top of the prison and glared Lyon.
''You see this, Lyon?'' he asked. ''This is what you are, a beast in a cage, lashing out at a world he barely knows!''
''Utter nonsense.'' snarled Lyon, waving his hand. ''I'll make quick work of that ice!''
Despite his claims, the tiger within the prison could not get free, no matter how much it struggled. Lyon stepped back in shock as Gray jumped down in front of him.
''Single-handed spellcasting is top unbalanced; as your creations will let you down when you need them the most.''
Gray placed his hands together, and a magic circle appeared under his feet. When he separated his hands, a large bazooka appeared in them, which he then aimed at Lyon.
''Ice Cannon!'' he yelled.
The cannon fired the blast so powerful that it blew a gaping hole through the side of the temple. Lyon fell to the ground, his clothes shredded, and his body covered in wounds. Gray lowered the cannon, slightly disappointed. He had only glanced Lyon with that shot, though whether Lyon had managed to dodge at the last second or it he'd subconsciously missed on purpose, Gray didn't know.
''Thanks for teaching me that move, Ur.'' said Gray softly, and then groaned in pain. He looked at the wound Lyon had inflicted with that icicle, and then used his magic to freeze it shut. ''Ow, I knew I should have sealed this sooner.''
He would have relaxed, but a noise rang out throughout the temple. It was a noise that haunted his nightmares, even though he hadn't heard in 10 years; it was both a high-pitched screech and a now growl that nearly paralyzed him with fear.
Deliora.
In the depths of the temple, Natsu, Diamondhead tried to block out the noise as the ice around the frozen demon crackled and fell apart.
''Yes!'' shouted Zalty exuberantly. ''It's free!'''
''Was that the demon?'' asked Erza, as she, Lucy and Happy made their way into the temple, after they'd defeated Lyon's troops.
''Oh no, they brought it back to life?!'' gasped Lucy.
''Hey, wait, if the demon is back, why is the Moon Drip still coming down?'' Happy pointed at a purple column light.
''Perhaps Deliora isn't completely revived.'' answered Erza, tapping her chin in thought. ''Which means that we can still stop it; come on!''
''Oh crud, this can't be good.'' remarked Diamondhead.
''I'm done wasting my time with you!'' exclaimed Natsu.
He charged toward Zalty, but a green sphere collided with his head, sending him flying. The sphere flew towards the small, masked man, where it orbited around his wrist.
''Ready when you are.'' challenged Zalty, grinning.
''Why, you...'' Natsu charged at Zalty again, and the green sphere headed right at him. This time, Natsu shattered it in a single bow. Before he could celebrate, however, the pieces came back together, reforming the sphere!
''Natsu, I've got a plan. I'll take care of everything else. You just get ready to attack again!'' called out Diamondhead.
''Get it!'' replied Natsu.
Diamondhead slapped the Omnitrix-symbol. After the usual green light died down standing in his place was a four-armed, feline-like alien. His appearance is loosely based on Mewtwo from Pokémon, and Enderman from Minecraft. He has a black and purple body and has three sharp fingers on each hand, with only sharp toes on his feet. He has somewhat horn-like extractions on behind his head and a purple tail. He has three green eyes and a black-like extraction on top of head contact to his ears. He wears the Omnitrix symbol on his chest, while a Purple Fairy Tail Guild mark on the upper arm shoulder.
''Psycho Storm!'' he shouted.
Zalty sent at orb at Psycho Storm, who simply held out a hand, where a purple light aura illuminates on it. As soon as hit the orb, it was lifted up.
''I can do telekinesis, sucker!''
Zalty snarled, and then used his power to undo Psycho Storm's power did. The Enderineticaeon, however, froze it with his Psychic-Time Manipulation.
''I can also do Psychic-Time Powers.'' said Psycho Storm.
This continued for several minutes, with both fighters looking more tired with each attack.
''It would appear that we are at a stalemate.'' commented Zalty, smirking.
''Maybe, but I can also else besides telekinesis and control time.'' replied Psycho Storm.
''What's that?'' asked Zalty.
''I can use do telepathy and mind control.'' Psycho Storm's eyes glowed as Zalty's eyes glowed purple, and he was pause in time when Psycho Storm used his psychic time powers again. ''Natsu, now!''
''All right!'' the Dragon Slayer charged forward. ''Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!'' he chanted.
The blow sent Zalty flying, though his body was still stuck in the same position. Psycho Storm's power would wear off in a little while, but he as no longer an issue.
The roaring of Deliora was, however.
On top of the temple, Toby fell to the ground in pain, Erza standing over him with a raised sword. Even though he'd been defeated, Toby still looked triumphant.
''You're too late! The ceremony is already completed; Deliora is free!'' he announced.
With a twitch of its shoulders, Deliora shook off the last of the ice that had entrapped in for 10 years and took a step forward.
''No.'' Gray's voice caused Natsu and Psycho Storm to turn and see the limping ice wizard walking towards them.
''Sorry Gray, we couldn't stop it. I guess our only choice is to take that thing down.'' stated Natsu.
''What he said.'' agreed Psycho Storm. In a flash of green light, he turned back to Ben.
The roar of Deliora sounded again, making everyone flinch.
''None... none of you are strong enough.'' Lyon's voice weakly called out behind them, and they saw the Cold Emperor dragging himself towards the demon, an insane smile on his face. ''But I am... I defeat Deliora.''
''You've caused enough trouble I'm going to clean up the mess you made I'll seal the demon myself.'' said Gray as once again he assumed the Iced Shell.
''Don't Gray do you have any idea how long it took me to melt that ice sealing it again won't stop me I won't until I finally defeated Deliora.'' stammered Lyon.
''I can't worry about the future I have to do it now to prevent it from killing us all.'' called back Gray.
Natsu and Ben got in front of Gray.
''Why don't let us worry about this.'' said Natsu.
''Don't be stupid get out of the way.'' argued Gray.
''If I didn't let you, do it before, why would I let you do it again now.'' replied Ben. ''Remember, I told you before? Killing yourself make you a coward?'' he asked.
Gray remembered Ben told him.
''We're not going to let you go out like that go ahead and the cast spell but we're not moving.'' responded Natsu.
Ben activated the Omnitrix and transformed into...
''Big Chill!'' he shouted. ''I said this before, let's just say there's a time to go hero. And a time to go Ultimate!''
''Ultimate?'' asked both Natsu and Gray, confused.
Big Chill slapped the Omnitrix symbol as four spikes popped out from the Omnitrix symbol and a green light slowly over Big Chill's body. When the green light died down Big Chill's skin is recolored red, his wings and antennae have a flame design, and he had crests over his eyes with the same design. He wears the evolved Omnitrix symbol on his chest.
''Ultimate Big Chill!'' he shouted in a deep gravelly voice.
Natsu and Gray's eyes widened from seeing this new form. They could sense a lot more power radiating from this Ultimate Big Chill than the original.
The demon roared again only this time while rising is fist about to strike Ultimate Big Chill. But Ultimate Big Chill turned intangible, and the fist phased through him. He opened his mouth, but instead of the ice breath, a breath of red flames burst out. The flames came at Deliora and now the demon was encased in a huge chunk of ice.
''Fire so cold it burns.'' smirked Ultimate Big Chill. The evolved Necofriggian turned to his pink haired friend. ''Natsu now!'' he yelled.
''Right.'' cried Natsu as he smashed his fist at Deliora's frozen fists with this one hit. The demon's body started cracking all over with green energy appearing between the cracks.
As the demon was roaring its final time in pain and the demon fell apart into pieces.
''No... Deliora was already dead for 10 years, Ur's spell was gradually drained the demon's life force and what we just saw nothing more than its last drying breaths.'' muttered Lyon.
''Whoa.'' breathed'' Ultimate Big Chill.
''Wow, your teacher was pretty awesome!'' cheered Natsu, patting Gray on the back.
''Yeah.'' agreed Gray, a few tears falling down from his face as he realized that his nightmare was finally over. ''She was.''
Ultimate Big Chill slapped the Omnitrix symbol turning back to normal Big Chill and slapped the Omnitrix symbol again and transformed back to Ben. Ben smiled at Gray. Before they could celebrate, the sound of consistent beeping captured Ben's attention. He lifted his arm to see the Omnitrix faceplate blinking green.
''Warming! Genetic damage detected!'' spoke the Omnitrix. ''Scanning life form.''
Natsu, Gray, and Lyon looked at Ben, as his Omnitrix just talk.
No sooner Ben had raised his hand did a light shoot out of the Omnitrix scanning the melt Iced Shell. After a moment, the light was gone.
''Scan complete.'' said the Omnitrix. ''Traces of human DNA are present. Do you wish to repair?''
Ben looked at the water and realized. ''Of course, Ur's body must've formed the Iced Shell; keeping Deliora sealed away and the Omnitrix detected her genetic damage from the melted ice.''
Ben took a few steps towards the water. He kneeled down and slowly placed his left hand on the water. ''Omnitrix, yes. Let's repair the damage.''
The Omnitrix faceplate turned green, and a brilliant flash filled the area,
Ben opened his eyes to see he was floating inside of a vest green void with black blotches all around. He was confused for a moment before realizing what this place was.
''That's right. I'm inside the Omnitrix.'' he recalled being in this place when he healed his older cousin Ken from the Highbreed's DNAlien parasite a year ago. ''Please go more smoothly this time around.''
He looked ahead to see a formed Iced Shell collied. He carefully reached out his hand and placed it on top on the ice. All of a sudden, the ice begins to cracked and shattered.
Ben opened his eyes. He was back in the real world.
The water from the Iced Shell, wasn't where in sight. Instead, lying behind he was a woman of average height with a slim, cutaneous figure. Her irises were black, and she had dark purple hair at chin length. Her hair normally quite unkempt, cascading down the sides of her face and covering her ears. She wore a tan jacket with a dark brown collar and cuff and two breast pockets. The pockets could be closed by buttoning the small flaps above them to their front. She used her leave her jacket open to reveal a maroon tube top below it, partially exposing her midriff. She wore a pair of black pants and a belt with a scaly design and metal buckle. And finally, she wore a pair of simple brown shoes.
''Whoa. I guess she's Ur.'' thought Ben.
Gray and Lyon on the other hand speechless.
''No way! Ur!'' cried out the Ice-Make wizards.
''She's back!'' shouted Lyon with a smile and tears running down from his eyes.
''Yeah.'' agreed Gray.
Ben stood back on his feet.
''Hey, Ben?'' asked Natsu.
''Yeah?'' he asked.
''How'd you do?'' aske the Dragon Slayer.
Ben looked at his Omnitrix. ''My watch, detect Ur's genetics from the Iced Shell after it melt, and turned her back to normal.'' he explained.
Lyon however was confused and didn't, what Ben mean or what he his watch just did, he's glad that his master is back in the living.
The next few minutes, Lucy, Happy, and Erza arrived, the latter causing Natsu to freak out. In an act of compassion, Gray had helped Lyon out of the temple, while Ben and Natsu helped Ur who was still unconscious; Lyon himself looked almost peaceful, as if the destruction of Deliora and Ur's return caused his manic obsession to fade.
''Oh yeah!'' cheered Natsu as they exited the temple. ''We totally finished an S-Class quest all by ourselves!''
''You're right!'' agreed Lucy excitedly. ''Do you think Master Makarov will let us onto the second floor now?'' she asked.
''I highly doubt that.'' groaned Ben.
The celebratory mood was shattered by Erza's glare.
''Isn't there something you're all forgetting about?'' demanded Erza. ''You came to this island to help the villagers; the request was for you to return them to their original forms. This quest still isn't completed.''
''Aw, man, can't it never be easy?'' moaned Ben.
A/N: Well, that is for Chapter 11 readers. I hoped that you guys like and enjoyed it. I make Ben bring Ur back, I don't the other authors didn't it because the Omnitrix can repair anyone's genetics.
Also, I'm bring Big Chill in the arc because he can control ice, and the other authors didn't get him a role. And Ultimate Big Chill and Natsu defeated Deliora and destroyed him.
Well anyway in the next chapter is the final part of the Galuna Island arc.
Anyway, this for now see you guys in the next chapter.
