A/N: Hello, readers! Welcome to a new chapter!
I'm having Aira be bitten by Cobra's snake since in my other story I had my other OC Snow get bitten.
Enjoy!
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Fairy Tail, I only own my OC's.
CHAPTER THIRTY-SIX: ENTER THE ORACION SEIS!
As Natsu and everybody else is running, they arrive near the edge of the cliff. "I can see the woodsea!"
"Wait, Natsu!" Aira shouted.
"Not a chance!" Natsu refuses to stop running.
"Fool! Don't go running off ahead of us!" Erza shouted.
"What?! Can't stand the thought of me taking the lead?!" Natsu taunted.
"What?! How dare you, you little..." Erza insulted with a scary face, terrifying Natsu.
Suddenly, Natsu falls off the cliff, disappearing into the forest.
"Damn, look at him fall!" Aira overlooks from the cliff.
"Hasty idiot." Erza insulted.
"He hasn't changed much, has he?" Sherry asked.
"When I think that I once fought with him, it's really quite complicated." Lyon stated.
"That's love, yet again!" Sherry commented.
"Uh, no, it isn't." Gray replied.
Lucy is still left behind, crying and running at the same time. "Wait! You all run too fast! Whatever happened to ladies first?!"
"Should I give you a princess carry?" Hibiki asked.
"I'll hold your hand!" Eve volunteered.
"Stay by my side." Ren said.
"Shut up!" Lucy yelled.
"Wendy, stop dilly-dallying!" Carla continues to drag Wendy by her hand with Happy running behind her.
"I'm doing my best, too!" Happy jumps.
A huge red bump appears on Natsu's head. "Oww... Anyway, this place smells weird." The rest are catching up after Natsu.
"Have you noticed?" Erza asked.
"Yeah. I don't really get it, but there's something odd in the air." Aira responded.
"Don't let your guard down, Sherry!" Lyon said.
"Right!" Sherry agreed.
"What took you so long, people?!" Natsu asked.
"You must have a durable body to go along with that thick skull of yours..." Aira shouted.
A large shadow appears over them. Natsu looks up to see what it is. Aira crashes into Natsu, crashing down to the ground. "What the hell are you doing?!" Natsu argued with their heads clashed together.
"Don't just stop like that!" Aira shouted.
Erza gets in between them, pushing their heads aside. "Look!" They look up and see a large flying ship. "The magical bomber, Christina!"
"That's the Pegasus I've heard about?!" Gray asked. Lucy, Wendy, and the others finally catch up to the rest of them, looking up at the flying ship.
"That actually gives me hope." Carla said.
"Okay! Let's split up and search for their base!" Erza said.
"What are you talking about?!" Natsu asked, confused about the plan.
"You're useless..." Aira groaned.
Just then, Christina explodes midair, causing to break down. "What happened to Christina?!" Hibiki wondered what caused it to explode. This brings down everyone's hopes. They all watch it crash to the ground, exploding everywhere.
"What happened?!" Lyon asked.
Natsu picks up a scent. "Hey..."
"Yeah..." Aira knows what Natsu means. "Somebody's coming! Watch out!" They prepare themselves in a fighting pose, ready to attack.
Wendy hides behind a rock in fear, watching the others ready to fight. "Wendy!" Carla scolded. They see six figures approaching them.
"They're... Oracion Seis!" Lucy exclaimed.
"The maggots have swarmed..." The man with long gray hair looks at the mages in front of him.
"We saw through your plans." The woman in white fluffy clothing, Angel, with two small figures flying next to her, stated.
"We already got Jura and Ichiya!" One of the blue figures said. "How do you like that?" The other blue figure said.
"What?!" Lyon shouted.
"Impossible!" Hibiki shouted as well.
A man with maroon hair and a purple snake around him, Cobra, taunted. "You're trembling... I can hear it."
"We should hurry up with our work. But you are getting in the way." Another man with a pointy nose and a blonde mohawk, Racer, informed.
"Money makes people stronger, yes!" A man with a book in his hands, having a rectangular appearance, Hoteye, exclaimed. "Let me tell you something nice. Money is everything in this world, and..."
"Hoteye, shut up!" Cobra and Racer interrupted.
One of the guys, Midnight, is sleeping on a magical flying carpet.
"I think one of them is asleep..." Lucy commented.
"I didn't expect them to show themselves to us." Erza muttered.
Natsu cracks his knuckles out loud, having a smug grin on his face. "Hey..."
"Yeah." Aira agreed.
The Dragon Slayers waste no time, charging at them directly. "Now we don't have to go find you!"
"Do it." Brain ordered.
"Okay." Racer vanishes, appearing behind Natsu and Aira. "Motor!" He quickly sweeps them aside.
"Natsu! Aira!" Lucy cried out, but she becomes confused when she sees a copy of herself doing the exact same thing.
The copy of Lucy uses her whip to hit Lucy. "Idiot!"
"What the... Why am I..." Lucy shrieked as Angel watches in amusement.
Lyon and Sherry attempt to fight Hoteye. "I saw that, yes!" He catches them by turning the ground into liquid "Even without love, as long as you have money, yes!"
"What's this?! The ground is..." Lyon sinks lower into the ground.
"Love is more important!" Sherry commented. "Lyon-sama!"
"I'll take Angel!" Hibiki shouted as the other two follow him. Racer quickly defeats all three of them.
"Fast is good." Racer said.
"Satsuki, let's do this!" Aira said.
"Tch, whatever." Satsuki replied.
"Earth Dragon's..."
"Water Dragon's..."
"Roar!" Aira and Satsuki combine their breath attacks, but Cobra easily dodges it.
"I can hear you." Cobra evilly grinned.
"Water Dragon's Wing Attack!" Aira shouted as he sent streams of water towards Cobra, but he easily moves to the side and dodges it. "What?! How the hell can he block an attack that quick?!" Racer then appears behind him and attacks him, but he blocks the attack.
"Damn it... You! Why are you sleeping, you bastard?!" Natsu is angered at Midnight's action of sleeping.
"Water Dragon's Wave Fist!" Aira shouted as he tried to punch Cobra. Once again he dodges it.
"Earth Dragon's Club!" Satsuki's arm turned into rock as she tries to attack him. Cobra dodges that as well.
"I can hear everything." Cobra informed as he kicks them both. "Your next move, that is!"
"I knew it, he's predicting us..." Aira thinks to himself, landing back on the ground.
"Predicting? No..." Cobra corrected. "I told you, I can hear you."
"Wake up, you!" Natsu casts a Fire Dragon's Roar on the sleeping Dark Mage, but it goes around him. "What was that just now? My magic didn't hit?"
"Stop it." Racer then appears behind Natsu, kicking and punching him multiple times, leaving Natsu no opening space to fight back. "Midnight's real scary when he wakes up."
"Ice Make..." Gray attempts to attack, but Angel's spirits take form of him, attacking faster.
"Lance!" The spirits easily defeat Gray.
Lyon attempts to fight back. "Ice-Make..."
Sherry attacks along side him. "Doll Attack..."
"...Eagle!" Lyon shoots ice eagles at Hoteye.
"...Mud Doll!" Sherry uses the ground to attack.
"Money is more powerful than love, yes!" Hoteye once again envelops them with liquified ground. Brain is amused with the results.
Aira and Satsuki continue to battle Cobra, but he dodges them easily. "So this is Tsunami..." Brain says to himself.
Cobra blocks the attacks from Aira. "I can hear your movements... Your breathing... The contraction and expansion of your muscle... Your very thoughts, even..." He realizes that Aira has also experienced pain and lost as he reveals his past. "I see... You're also..."
"Not so smart to be easily distracted! Water Dragon's Grip Strike!" Aira uses his distraction to attack Cobra, but he gets hit by liquified ground.
"I saw it, yes!" Hoteye attacks him with his Magic.
"Cobra, what are you waiting for?!" Racer manages to kick him as he is wide open.
"Cubelios!" Cobra orders his snake to bite his arm while he is suspended in midair. Aira screams as he harshly lands on the ground. "Cubelios' poison doesn't take effect immediately. It lets you live for a while in pain!"
"Aira!" Cain shouted for his best friend.
Most of the Allied Forces are all beaten down, injured or unconsious. "Trash, you should all vanish from this earth." Brain begins to cast his Magic. They feel a terrible evil type of magic from him. "Dark Rondo!" He halts his casting when he notices Wendy cowering behind a rock.
"What's the matter, Brain?" Racer asked.
"Why did you stop the spell?" Cobra added.
"Wendy!" Brain called out, shocked to see her. They continue to ask him how he knows Wendy. "There's no mistaking it... You are Wendy. The Maiden of the Sky!"
"The Maiden... of the sky?" Gray repeated.
"What's that?" Wendy completely hides behind the rock, protecting herself.
"What does that mean?" Happy asked.
"I didn't expect to encounter you here." Brain said. "It looks like we've picked up a nice present. Come!" He grabs Wendy with his Magic.
"Wendy!" Happy and Carla cried out. Carla chases after her.
"Wait! I'll save you!" Happy chases after them while carrying a stick as a weapon.
"What the hell do you think you're doing?!" Natsu asked, trying to get back up.
"Money is a great equalizer, yes!" Hoteye's Magic keeps them pinned to the ground.
"Carla!" Wendy cried out.
"Wendy!" Carla reaches her hand out for her to grab.
"Huh?" Happy is grabbed instead of Carla.
"Hey, you!" Carla yelled. Wendy and Happy disappear. "Wendy!"
"Happy!" Natsu called out.
"I have no more need for you worms. Begone! Dark Rondo!" Brain attacks them, once more.
"Lucy-san!" Hibiki protects the Celestial Mage.
"Sherry!" Lyon protects the pink haired Mage.
"This is Lyon-sama's love!" Sherry praises him for protecting her.
"Iron Rock Wall!" Jura arrives on time, blocking the spell. "Just barely in time."
"Jura-sama!" Sherry's happy to see him arrive.
"Amazing, Jura-san!" Eve complimented.
"Thank you. You saved us." Hibiki said.
"Man, thanks a bunch." Lucy thanked.
"Damn it... Let me at 'em!" Natsu said, wanting to fight the Oracion Seis. "Huh?"
"They disappeared?" Gray said.
"What the?!" Natsu furiously yelled.
"Wendy..." Carla looks out into the distance, feeling guilty and weak that she was unable to help her friend.
"They totally got us..." Ren commented.
"They're too powerful! We couldn't even touch them!" Eve said.
"Oracion Seis... What kind of monsters are they?" Lyon wondered.
"There are only six of them, but they're even more powerful than the data we collected on them suggested!" Hibiki stated.
"And our plan to use Christina is..." Sherry said.
"Yes... That woman who can peer into your heart said so. She said that they knew everything about our plans." Jura informed.
"Um... What about the people that were on board?" Lucy asked.
"You don't have to worry about that." Ren replied.
"Christina was heading to its destination by remote control." Eve stated.
"After we found their base, we were supposed to board it, however..." Hibiki said.
"I see! Thank goodness!" Lucy said in relief.
"I am so glad you remain, Jura-san." Lyon expresses his relief.
"No... It was quite a close call." Jura stated.
"Those wounds?" Lyon pointed out.
"A fearsome power it was... I have numbed the pain now, thanks to Ichiya-dono's painkiller parfum." Jura said.
"Damn you, Oracion Seis... How dare you run just as we arrive! We must have scared them off!" Ichiya stated.
"You're all beat up, you know!" Gray commented.
"These injuries? Nothing at all. Everyone, take a whiff of my painkiller parfum!" Ichiya uses the rest of his Magic on the Allied Forces.
"Ah... What a nice smell." Sherry commented.
"Yeah... My pain is going away." Lucy said.
"Men!" Ichiya chanted.
"I wish he would cut out the posing part, though..." Lucy muttered.
"Yes, that's our Sensei!" The Trimen cheer for Ichiya.
"They changed how they call him again?!" Lucy pointed out.
"I'm not even saying anything anymore." Gray added.
"Damn those bastards... How dare they kidnap Wendy and Happy?!" Natsu runs off to look for the Oracion Seis. "Where are you?! Where did you run off to?!"
"Natsu, where are you going?!" Lucy asked.
Natsu gets pulled back by Carla grabs him by the scarf. "Sheesh... Try calming down a little." Carla is seen using wings to fly just like Happy and Genie do.
"Wings?" Gray muttered.
"Definitely wings." Sherry replied.
"The cat is flying." Ren pointed out.
"This is the magic called Aera." Carla responded. "Well, I suppose it's only natural to be surprised the first time you see it."
"You're copyin' Happy and Cain!" Natsu accused.
"Say what?!" Carla asked, irritated now that she's not the only one who uses that type of Magic.
"Now who's the one surprised?" Lucy taunted.
"Anyway... I'm worried about Wendy and that male cat. But these aren't people we can beat by randomly coming at them, right?" Carla informed.
"Carla-dono is correct. Our enemy is stronger than we anticipated." Jura agreed.
"Men..." Ichiya commented.
"And besides..." Carla points to Aira who is in extreme pain. His team tries to console him from the pain, but doesn't seem to work.
"Poison is spreading the place the snake bit you..." Lucy stated.
"I know... Have some more of my painkiller parfum!" Ichiya once again uses his Magic to numb the pain. "Augment Aroma!"
"Wait... Will a painkiller help with poison?" Lucy asked.
"Our senpai's parfum works not just with pain, but can cure poison as well." Hibiki explained. The painkiller has no effect on him, still in the same position.
"Aira, are you okay?!" Gray asked.
"It looks like he's suffering even worse!" Natsu pointed out.
"Uh... Oh? M-Me...?" Ichiya stuttered, embarrassed by his Magic's effect.
"No... The painkiller parfum isn't working!" Eve stated.
"Hang in there, Aira!" Natsu said.
"What'll we do?!" Lucy asked, concerned for Aira's condition.
"Lucy... I'm sorry. I'm taking your belt." Aira grabs Lucy's belt, causing her skirt to fall down. The Trimen stare at her in amusement.
"Eyes off!" Lucy furiously kicks them away. Aira wraps the belt around his arm. "What are you doing, Aira?!"
Aira ignores her and grabs Erza's sword that was on the ground. Erza looks at him confused as he grabs a cloth and puts it in his mouth.
"Sorry... I can't fight like this." Aira replied, throwing Erza's sword to the ground. "Cut it off!" All the members are shocked to see him ask this.
"Don't be a fool!" Gray yelled.
"Please... Someone..." Aira begged.
"Understood." Lyon picks up Erza's sword. "I will do it."
"Lyon-sama..." Sherry muttered.
"Lyon, don't!" Gray argued, refusing to see him cut off Snow's arm.
"Do it!" Aira yelled.
"L-Lyon? Are you really serious?" Lucy asked.
"He's a Dragon Slayer, we need him now more than ever." Lyon replied.
"Natsu and Satsuki are Dragon Slayers as well or did you forget about that?" Cain argued.
"Honestly! You Fairies are such weaklings! At this rate, Aira-san will die, you know!" Sherry stated.
"And what the heck do you know?!" Lucy argued.
"This is also... Lyon-sama's love!" Sherry commented.
"If you're going to do it, hurry! Soon the poison will spread through my entire body!" Aira said through the cloth, clenching on it with his teeth.
"Stop this, Lyon!" Gray demanded.
"You cannot do it!" Hibiki protested as well.
"There must be some other way!" Eve said.
"This is Aira's own will!" Jura stops him.
"Here I go!" Lyon holds Erza's sword up, ready to slice Aira's arm off. Everybody else watches Lyon about to put Aira out of his misery.
