Previously, on Fairy Tail, the score between White Eclipse was down to two vs. three, Reve Volver and Sidney Castle vs. Cynthia, Wendy Marvell, and Gildarts Clive. Cynthia defeated Heather, the Poison Dragon Slayer of White Eclipse, while Reve defeated Gray, the famous ice make mage. The battle for number one is coming to an end, but the real battles have yet to begin. Who will be the two that fight this time? Will White Eclipse be defeated, or will they be able to pull off a comeback and defeat the remaining three Fairy Tail mages? There's only one way to find out….

"The next match is…" Calium started, looking up at the roulette as it began to shuffle. The first picture stopped on Cynthia, and the second stopped on Sidney.

"M-Me again…!?" Cynthia gasped, looking at who her opponent was.

"Oh, she got Sidney…" Waiston couldn't help but smirk.

"That guy again…" Natsu clenched his teeth, remembering the beating Sidney gave him at the White Eclipse dinner.

"Be careful, Cynthia…" Mavis said.

"I'll do my best…I have to…" Cynthia nodded, stepping into the center of the arena.

"Hm…I've been looking forward to this, actually," Sidney nodded to himself as he suddenly appeared a few yards away from Cynthia.

"The ace of White Eclipse…" Wendy thought. "You can do it, Cynthia…"

.

.

"Hm…" Aiden watched Cynthia's next match carefully. "Ace of White Eclipse, hm?"

"What now?" Maggie asked, sitting as she stood next to Aiden.

"It appears Cynthia is facing the ace of White Eclipse, this should provide just what I need…" Aiden said with a smirk.

.

.

"I won't lose," Cynthia looked over at Sidney with a determined look.

"I won't hold back, Cynthia," Sidney replied. "Do you remember what I told Natsu before we fought?" Cynthia shook her head no in response to Sidney's question. "I thought so. It's customary to allow the weaker opponent the first move."

"You're gonna regret that move!" Cynthia covered her arms in red fire as she charged forward towards Sidney. "Omega Fire Dragon's Wing Slash!" Cynthia swiped her arms at Sidney, sending the trail of red fire towards him, but he dodged it by jumped back.

"She's fast," Sidney thought to himself. Before Sidney could decide on what to do next, Cynthia continued the offensive assault as she pulled a flaming red fist back, aiming it at Sidney's chest. "Tch," Sidney brought his forearm up diagonally, blocking Cynthia's hit. Sidney then pulled his arm back.

Cynthia knew Sidney was going to block; he played right into her hands, at least she was hoping he did. Right as Sidney blocked her attack, she puffed her cheeks out. "Omega Fire Dragon's Roar!" She opened her mouth just as Sidney set a punch to her stomach, unleashing a red funnel of fire just as Sidney's attack sent her flying back. Sidney was engulfed by the red fire, covered in minor burn marks when the attack subsided. Cynthia was holding her stomach as she stood up slowly, groaning. "Ugh…he packs a punch…"

"She's already lasting longer than Natsu…" Jaxon said.

"Not bad," Zain said with some surprise.

Cynthia snapped her fingers, causing a multitude of magic circles to appear around Sidney; however, Sidney was expecting this, so he clapped his hands together, a magic circle running through him and Cynthia, when the circle passed, the two switched places. "WAH!" Cynthia had no time to react as her own attack unleashed itself on her, exploding after, creating a minor smoke cloud. When the smoke cleared, Cynthia hunched over, panting. "G-Geez…I'm not gonna lose though…!" Cynthia stood up straight, her flames darkening slightly. "Omega Fire Dragon's…" Cynthia placed her hands on the ground, causing a red magic circle to form. "Line!" A line of red fire traveled on the ground, splitting through it as it raced towards Sidney.

"Hm…" A magic circle ran through Sidney, making him into a literal ghost as the line went right through him, turning back into a physical state right after. Cynthia grit her teeth, jumping forward as flames surrounded her body in a wheel like shape, rolling forward towards Sidney.

"Flame Wheel!" Cynthia's determination increased the power of her flames and her power overall as she slammed into Sidney's stomach, forcing the ace of White Eclipse to slide back. Sidney placed his feet in the ground to prevent himself from flying back, and raised his hands, slamming them both down on Cynthia's back after her flames vanished, slamming her into the ground, creating a crater.

"C-Cynthia!" Wendy leaned over the railing, cheering her best friend on. "G-Get up!"

"I felt that one…" Zalen shifted his back around with a pained expression.

"N-Not done…" Cynthia stood up slowly, despite the pain her body was in from only a few attacks. "They're all counting on me…" Cynthia took a step back, raising her hands over her head. "Omega Fire Dragon's…Claw!" Cynthia held her arms back, as red flaming claws appeared; she then slashed at Sidney repeatedly, but he moved his body from side to side, dodging the attacks.

Sidney kept silent the entire time, shifting his weight from side to side constantly as Cynthia swiped at him furiously. But, Cynthia eventually got the better of him, slashing both her claws simultaneously, creating a cut on Sidney's shirt, and a gash on his chest. "…Strong…" Sidney thought to himself as Cynthia jumped back, smirking.

"I got you!" Cynthia grinned, panting somewhat heavily.

"She made Sidney bleed!?" Luke shouted in disbelief.

"Hm…" Sidney opened his palm, sending a multitude of tombstones at Cynthia.

"W-Wah!?" Cynthia scrambled as the tombstones came in her direction, though she didn't have many options then to cross her arms, shouting in pain as the tombstones came in contact with her arms. She could fell her arms bruised from Sidney's powers, but she held her ground until the tombstones vanished. "My turn…" Cynthia jumped into the air, creating a dark sphere of red fire in her hands. "Radiant Blaze of the Omega Flame Dragon!" Cynthia hurled the sphere forward towards Sidney.

"Soul wall," Sidney held his hand out, a wall of moving figures appearing in front of him, protecting him from the Blaze, the wall dispersing after. Sidney then took a step forward, causing a magic circle to appear, spinning clockwise. "Resurrection: Frankenstein," From the ground, a fifty foot cliché looking Frankenstein style monster makes its way out of the magic circle.

"W-WHAT IS THAT!?" Lucy flailed.

"I've never seen anything like that before…!" Mavis said with obvious surprise in her voice; in fact, Mavis covered her mouth as she spoke.

"W-What…?" Cynthia's eyes widened as she took a step back from the large Frankenstein monster. Frankenstein raised a fist, and then slammed it down on Cynthia, the ground cracking and the arena shaking after impact.

"Well I think it's over…" Arc nodded slowly.

"C-Cynthia…" Wendy dropped her hands, looking down at the emotionless Sidney.

A few seconds passed before the Frankenstein's fist started to move on its own, causing Sidney to turn his head in that direction. "…?"

"GRRRR…" Cynthia pushed the Frankenstein's fist off her slowly, holding it above her head as she clenched her teeth, her red flames extremely darkened. "Did you not hear me…?" Cynthia struggled as she attempted to straighten out her legs while holding the heavy fist in both of her hands. "I said…I wasn't…going…to LOSE! AAHHH!" With that last cry, Cynthia pushed the fifty foot Frankenstein's fist off of her, causing the monster to fall on its back, disappearing after.

"WHAT THE!?" Reve's eyes widened in surprise, "Just how strong is that girl!?

Cynthia's determination fueled her flames as they rose about a mile into the sky. "I won't lose to you!" Cynthia placed her hands on the ground, causing a red magic circle with a diameter equal to that of the arena to appear. "Omega Fire Dragon's Eruption!" The circle then unleashed a large upward explosion, engulfing the entire arena.

Sidney was prepared as the magic circle appeared, he conjured up an urn to protect himself, the urn taking the explosion, and not as well one would think. The urn cracked heavily, but when the explosion subsided, the lid popped open and Sidney jumped out…right as Cynthia slammed into his chest with an Omega Fire Dragon's Drill, forcing Sidney into the wall. "!" Cynthia jumped back, panting heavily.

"Heh…" Cynthia smirked, wiping some blood that was dripping from her mouth.

Sidney shook off the impact, but he felt a sharp pain in his chest. "!" Cynthia broke something in his chest. Sidney clearly wasn't expecting that.

"Sidney looks caught off guard…" Kuro whispered.

"Tch…this girl…" Sidney said quietly, ignoring the pain in his chest as he took a step forward. "Resurrection: Phantoms," Sidney created five phantoms that made their way towards Cynthia.

"If those hit, her magic power is gone…" Luke said quietly.

Cynthia grit her teeth at the incoming phantoms, knowing that something bad would happen to her if she was by them. "Alright…" Cynthia ran forward, taking a deep breath, though her vision was blurry from the damage she took earlier, and she felt it starting to catch up to her. By shifting her body to the right, she avoided the first phantom, then to the left, avoiding the second. By front flipping, she avoided the other two, and for the last, she hit the ground, sliding on her side as she slid over the phantom, her fist flaming as she swung a punch towards Sidney's jaw, FORCING Sidney to take a step back.

"HOLY…" Luke shouted.

Cynthia continued her aggressive assault on Sidney, who only dodged, using his arms to block every so often, but the felt the power of Cynthia's punches, every time they hit his arms. Sidney eventually gained some distance by kicking Cynthia in the side, causing her to stumble back, panting heavily. Sidney was covered in all kinds of marks, and something in his chest was broken. This wasn't a first for the cold shouldered ghost of White Eclipse, but it was certainly the first time in a long time someone got him into this particular position. Sidney they clapped his hands together, creating a purple fog. When the fog cleared, Cynthia found herself in an all too familiar location.

"W-What...?" Cynthia looked around, her eyes widening. "H-How did...?!"

"W-What's wrong with Cynthia?" Wendy asked, a concerned look appearing over her face as she yelled out to Cynthia, who didn't seem to hear her, or anything.

"This place..." Cynthia took a step back, looking down at her attire, a beat up white t-shirt and short, torn up blue jeans. "This is...!" Cynthia gasped as she turned around, spotting several guards surrounding her. "N-No...!" Cynthia dropped to her knees, gripping her head with her hands as she rocked herself back and forth, whimpering.

"W-What's he doing!?" Natsu shouted.

"S-Stop it!" Wendy shouted at Sidney, but he ignored Wendy's plea.

"N-No..." Cynthia shook her head slowly, standing up to her fear. "You're not taking me back...!" Cynthia turned around, remembering Sidney's estimated location, her dark flames rising even higher into the sky as she glared at where she thought he was. "I'm not going back!" Cynthia puffed her cheeks out, unleashing a large dark red funnel of fire towards Sidney.

"!" Sidney crossed his arms, surprised that Cynthia stood up to her fear, taking the brunt of the Omega Fire Dragon's Roar, his arms scorched as the attack subsided.

"Time to finish this," Sidney clapped his hands together, creating two black magic circles above and below Cynthia, and two white magic circles on her sides. "Eclipse Tower." This was Sidney's strongest moves, and he didn't hesitate to use it after acknowledging Cynthia's strength. The four towers closed in on Cynthia, catching her within the towers, causing the girl to let out a pained scream of agony. When the towers faded, Cynthia fell to the ground, breathing lightly, obviously in KO.

"C-Cynthia…!" Wendy gasped, wasting no time in hopping down to the arena to Cynthia.

"That was more trouble than I thought he was going to have…" Reve smirked just slightly. "Doesn't matter…that's one problem out of the way now…"

.

.

"She lost…" Maggie groaned. "Well, I guess we're gonna be lurking around for a few more bloody months now, aren't we!?"

"On the contrary…" Aiden replied. "She performed marvelously.

"Well, that's true, but how do you expect her to be the thing that practically takes down this country if she can't even beat one mage!?" Maggie replied, raising her voice to get her point across.

"That wasn't the very limit of her power," Aiden replied with a smirk. "She started to reach deep down, and she was able to injure this "Sidney Castle," quite noticeably.

"Eh?" Maggie raised an eyebrow. "I didn't see anything."

"When she struck him in the chest, I felt something in his chest break," Aiden nodded, standing up as he turned around. "Either way, we're done here now that Cynthia has lost."

.

.

Wendy carried Cynthia off into the infirmary, healing what she could before letting Cynthia rest and returning to the stands. Sidney made his way back to Team White Eclipse, ignoring the pain in his broken chest. "Are you okay, Sidney?" Aira asked, placing her hands out to heal him.

"I'm fine," Sidney swatted Aira's hand away.

"That looked like it all hurt…" Nami said.

"I'm fine," Sidney said once again.

"It's Gildarts and Wendy now…" Natsu said quietly.

"I'll do my best, everyone!" Wendy nodded.

"I will too," Gildarts replied, giving a stern nod.

"Time for the semifinal match," Calium nodded before starting up the roulette once again. The roulette stopped on Wendy and Reve.

"I-It's me again…" Wendy felt her heart pounding against her chest; she knew Reve was going to be an extremely difficult opponent beat, considering he defeated Gray and tied with Erza.

"I get the little kid? Lame…" Reve sighed, hopping up into the center of the arena.

"She's a tough one, Reve…" Luke raised his voice so Reve could hear him.

"Don't worry, Cloud, I got this," Reve smirked, standing in the center of the arena.

"Wendy, you can do it!" Chelia nodded.

Wendy ran out to the center of the arena. "I have to win!" She said to herself…before she tripped over nothing and clumsily fell flat on her face.

"Ooh…" Luke couldn't help but chuckle a little at Wendy's fall.

"…Hard to believe THIS is the one that beat Aira and Luke…" Reve sighed as two pistols appeared in his hands. "I remember how this little girl fights, so her tricks won't work on me."

Wendy stood up, her cheeks red from the embarrassing fall before she stood up to face Reve. "I'm ready…"

"We let the weaker opponent have the first move over at White Eclipse, so by all means, go first," Reve told Wendy with a smirk.

Wendy nodded, spreading her arms out. "Arms, Armor, and Vernir!" Wendy's body gave off a bright glow as she increased her speed, defense, and offense. Wendy then rushed towards Reve in a zig zag pattern, aiming to throw the guns mage off guard.

"Starting off with the stat boost already, huh?" Wendy's trick didn't throw Reve off guard at all, in fact, it made the situation worse for her as Reve's eyes pinpointed exactly where she would go next, and he fired off a few rounds at Wendy's next spot, catching the Sky Dragon off guard as she flew back a bit, catching herself. "I don't care how fast you are, my eyes are sharp," Reve smirked, pointing his guns at Wendy once again and started firing.

"Wendy, look out!" Erza shouted.

Wendy started moving around erratically, throwing Reve off her trail just for a few seconds, buying her enough time to jump into the air, spreading her arms out. "Sky Dragon's Wing Attack!" Wendy unleashed sharp winds from her arms, sending them all towards Reve.

"Oh, this is great!" Reve grinned as his body gave off a heavenly glow. When the glow faded, Reve was in a shirt that had the words SLAYER on it, and he held out a long gun. "Just what I was waiting for," Reve then held the long gun out, clicking the trigger; what happened next was unbelievable. The gun sucked in the Sky Dragon's Wing Attack, leaving Reve unscathed.

"W-What the!?" Wendy landed on the ground, her jaw dropping from what she just witnessed.

"W-What the hell was THAT!?" Natsu shouted, unable to comprehend what saw.

"Heh, surprised, are we?" Reve strapped the gun behind his back, grinning. "That, my dear Dragon Slayer, is the Reverse Slayer."

"Reserve…" Lucy started.

"Slayer?" Mavis finished the sentence.

"You really thought I wouldn't be prepared to take on one of you four Dragon Slayers? HA!" Reve smirked, changing the pistols in his hands for assault rifles, and then unleashed a seemingly endless stream to bullets towards Wendy.

"Wendy, watch out!" Carla cried out, watching as Wendy narrowly avoided the stream of bullets flying in her direction.

"Aahh!" Wendy spun her body around, sucking in a deep breath as she avoided most of the bullets coming in her direction. "Sky Dragon's Roar!" Wendy turned, shifting her body around as she aimed a Sky Dragon's Roar down at Reve.

"Tch," Reve rolled out of the way of the incoming roar, dropping his assault rifles as he pulled out the Reverse Slayer, unleashing Wendy's earlier Sky Dragon's Wing Attack back onto her. "That's a nice attack you got there!" Wendy's eyes widened as her own attack came spiraling back into her, blowing her back a few yards before she caught herself.

"That's going to be a major problem…" Gray said with his arm in a cast from his earlier fight with Reve.

"Sky Dragon's Crushing Fang!" Wendy rushed towards Reve, swinging a foot at his chest, but Reve stepped back, using his foot to step on the assault rifle he dropped earlier, unleashing a few quick rounds of bullets at Wendy, causing the Sky Dragon to hit the ground, the damage accumulated effecting her quickly, and she hadn't even laid a single hit on Reve. "I won't…stay down…" Wendy panted, standing up.

"You might as well," Reve's hands gave a glow as his six chamber magnum appeared in his hands, and he pointed it right at Wendy, firing the large bullet immediately at her. However, Reve…missed, as the bullet flew over Wendy and into the wall, creating a miniature explosion. "I-I missed!?"

"HE MISSED?!" Zalen stood up in surprise. "He rarely misses with that!"

Wendy smirked, standing up straight. "That was me…"

"What did you do…?" Reve narrowed his eyes at Wendy, curious as to how she could've made his accurate shot miss.

"I used my magic on you…" Wendy's smirked standing up straight as red fire and blue raging winds surrounded her. "I will win this battle for Fairy Tail…Secret Dragon Slayer Art: Light Shattering Flaming Sky Drill!" Wendy casted the dual mode secret art, consuming Reve in the barrier of wind, grinning as her attack landed. "Got him…" When Wendy's attack subsided, her eyes widened. Reve was in a SWAT outfit, his defense drastically increased, but he still took heavy damage, but he didn't let it show.

"My turn then," Reve spread his arms out as his SWAT uniform vanished, a multitude of guns appearing all around Wendy. "Devil's Wheel!"

"WENDY LOOK OUT!" Carla screamed. But it was way too late, the guns around Wendy started to fire, creating a smoke cloud as the bullets rained down for a few minutes. When the smoke cleared, Wendy was lying on her stomach, panting heavily. She placed her hands on the ground, pushing herself up slowly.

"You're kidding me…" Reve glared at Wendy as she stood up, hunching over.

"Wendy…" Chelia looked on nervously, noticing how badly Wendy was injured.

"Roar…" Wendy took a deep breath, a vortex of red fire and blue wind forming around her mouth.

"Here it comes…" Reve pulled out the Reverse Slayer, honestly not sure if the gun could handle what was coming.

"Of the Omega Flame Sky Dragon!" Wendy threw her head forward, unleashing the large funnel of red fire and blue sky towards Reve.

"Here we go!" Reve clicked the trigger on the Reverse Slayer, causing it to start sucking up the Omega Flame Sky Roar. However, unlike before Reve slid back across the ground as the Reverse Slayer started to suck up the roar.

"That's too much power…!" Waiston shouted.

"He's not gonna make it…" Luke said.

Luke was right, before Wendy let up on the roar, the Reverse Slayer exploded from the overload of power, sending Reve back across the ground. "DAMN!" Reve dropped the Reverse Slayer, cursing under his breath that he was going to have to fix that later. But, he pulled out his magnum which had five shots left.

"Now's my chance…" Wendy took a step forward, wincing visibly from the damage she had, but she ran forward, spreading her arms. "Omega Flame Sky Dragon's Wing Attack!" Wendy unleashed red fire winds towards Reve's direction.

"Damn…" Reve ran into the incoming attack, shifting his body around, and came out with minimal damage as he pointed his magnum at Wendy's face. "Bang," Reve clicked the trigger, the large bullet sending Wendy flying into the stands, KO'ed.

"W-WENDY!" Carla rushed over to Wendy, shaking her a few times. "G-Get her into the infirmary, quickly!"

"Right!" Lucy nodded, picking up Wendy and rushed her into the infirmary.

"Woo, go Revey!" Selene cheered from the sidelines.

"That leaves Gildarts…" Reve smirked, beckoning for Gildarts to come down. "C'mon, I'll take you down right now…"

"What, Reve, are you serious!?" Aira shouted. "At least let me heal you first!"

"I'm feeling pretty good right now, actually," Reve said with a cocky smirk, his attitude starting to get the better of him as he stood up straight.

"Kick his butt, Gildarts!" Natsu shouted as Gildarts made his way into the center of the arena, facing off against a moderately damaged Reve.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Gildarts asked, crossing his arms.

"Of course, White Eclipse, or second place, and we aren't second," Reve said, pointing his magnum at Gildarts. "Besides, if I can't beat you, Sidney will." Reve clicked the trigger on his magnum, firing off the third shot, the bullet hurtling towards Gildarts.

"What's he trying to prove…?" Taya asked, looking over at Sidney, who still refused treatment from Aira.

"I see…" Gildarts suck his hand out, catching Reve's bullet, and dissembling it with ease; Gildarts then fired off a white blast from his hand, also known as his Crash Magic.

"Heh!" Reve smirked, rolling out of the was as he spread his arms out again, exhausted from having a little less than half of his magical energy left. "Devil's Wheel!" Gildarts was prepared for the worst, but he looked around, seeing nothing around him, until a bullet flew into his metal arm, causing Gildarts to turn around after the hit. "Ten snipers, too far for the normal human eye to see; ten bullets, one down, nine to go. Can you survive, Clive?"

"Only nine?" Gildarts said with a confident smirk, throwing his cape back, revealing his body.

Gildarts comment ticked Reve off just slightly as he pointed his magnum once again, firing off the fifth shot towards Gildarts. "We'll see how you feel about that after this!"

Gildarts ran forward with his hand back, throwing it forward as he released a white net that met with Reve's magnum, disassembling the bullet to pieces as a bullet from afar aimed itself at Gildarts leg; Gildarts was unable to dodge the powerful bullets, so he took the one to his leg, but he didn't let it bother him as he continued charging forward.

"Damn, I'm gonna have to call it!" Reve snapped his fingers, ordering all the remaining snipers to fire down at Gildarts.

"Hn!" Gildarts brought his cape as a defense as the remaining eight bullets fired down on him, creating holes in his cape. Gildarts emerged from the attack undamaged, now rushing at Reve with his fist pulled back.

"Shit…!" Reve's good eyes were gone; he was dizzy since this was the last ounce of magical energy he had in his hands. He clicked the trigger one last time, sending the final bullet to the incoming Gildarts…but it was useless, Gildarts punched the bullet to the side, then pulled his fist back once again, swinging it at Reve's cheek, landing a direct hit as Reve hit the arena wall, in KO.

"HE GOT HIM!" Natsu grinned, throwing a fist into the air.

"Dammit, Reve…" Taya shook her head. "What was he trying to prove…?"

"Hmph…" Sidney stood up, not even caring about the pain in his chest. "I guess it's come down to this."

"Sidney, you're injured! You should fight him at full strength!" Aira protested.

"We're going to finish this now," Sidney replied, ignoring the pain in his chest. "I didn't want to be dragged into this in the first place, but I will finish your fight anyway," Sidney walked into the center of the arena, looking at Gildarts. "I knew it would come to this."

"I did too." Gildarts replied, unleashing his magical energy, causing the arena to shake.

"We're both injured, no matter how much you try to play it off," Sidney started to release his magical energy, the entire city of Crocus shaking as a result. Gildarts held a hand back, charging towards Sidney.
