'...' thinking

"..." speaking


In the ruins of the everlue mansion, Natsu stands victoriously over his enemies. The main hall has been thoroughly trashed with rubble everywhere and windows broken. The vanish brothers lay crumpled over each other, covered in bruises and burns that will take a while to heal. While natsu tends to go over board, he at least retains enough control to not permanently injure his opponents. The vanish brothers are still conscious in their defeat though unable to fight.

"How is this possible, we were beaten.. By a fire wizard" small brother chokes out coughing up smog.

"His physical abilities, they were on par… with us" tall brother whispers

Natsu was currently walking away when he heard them speak.

"I don't know what kind of fire wizards you fought before but they must have been really weak to be beaten by you. Now i need to go find lucy, these guys are toast" natsu says to himself.

As he walks away the lead maid, Virgo, who natsu beat earlier, opens her eyes as they begin to glow.


Back in the sewer lucy is struggling to break everlues hold on her.

"You call me an enemy of literature, my massive collection of books and art only prove I'm its greatest friend." everlue says bending her arms back more.

"But that ugly maid collection of your proves you dont know a thing about beauty" lucy quips back staring in pain. The comment only makes everlue angrier

"How dare you mock them, they are the very definition of beauty."

Lucy knows it's a low blow, she's not shallow enough to go around insulting people's looks but this jackass called her ugly. Sure if the guy genuinely thinks these women are pretty good for them but her ego has been bruised enough, first in hargeon and now here, not to mention all the jokes happy's been making.

Everlue tightens his hold on Lucy as he forces her head and face into the ground as he stands over her looking at daybreak. Lucy's been making sure to keep a grip on it and not let everlue take it.

"What secret does this piece hold, let me guess he buried his fortune and theres a treasure map hidden inside, TELL ME! Or ill snap your arm like a toothpick.'' Lucy took the moment to sticker tongue out at him and blow a raspberry. Everlue made a face of displeasure at that.

"Come now, this is no time to get sassy. Listen i myself commissioned this books creation which means any secret this book hold is my property"

As he was speaking lucy was feeling a burning pain in her arms, it seemed everlue was about to make do on the promise to break her arms. All of a sudden, Lucy felt the pressure release as everlue let out a strangled cry. Looking up Lucy watched as happy flew in out of nowhere and drop kicked Everlue in the face, pushing him off of her.

"Happy" she cried in joy at seeing the little blue cat before turning to everlue.

"Looks like the tables have turned, but if you let me keep the book ill think about going easy on you, though im tempted to giver you a good smack" Lucy says confidently as she pulls out a gold key. Everlue took note of the object in her hand has he came to an understanding.

"Oh a celestial wizard huh, though for a reader it seems you're a bit deficient in your terms of phrase. The tables have turned means that the weaker party has rallied to claim victory, but there's no way you and that cat can ever defeat me and my diver magic. Observe boyoyoyoo"

Everlue brings his fist to his side as an earthly colored magic circle appears on his back before vanishing. Everlue then sinks into the ground as the sound of crumbling rocks is heard. As he disappears beneath the ground a hole is left as Lucy and Happy become shocked.

"So he uses magic to do that, I had no idea everlue was a wizard" happy says in surprise

As the two look around for where everlue had gone lucy hears and feels the stone breaking beneath her feet. In a display of quick reflexes and surprising acrobatics Lucy manages to dodge out of the way. Just as quickly as he emerged, everlue sinks again popping in and out of the ground like a mole, sending rubble flying each time he emerges. With each strike lucy doges showing incredible flexibility by bending her body in a way to keep daybreak from everlues hands, one of her evasions resulted in lucy doing an aerial backflip to escape everlue after he appeared under her again. After consecutively dodging five times, everlue stopped his barrage long enough for her to catch her breath and speak.

"Look, I know the whole story, it's a horrible adventure story about a trasy little character named Duke everlue" she says with Happy responding "you serious?"

"I don't know that i'd call the protagonist trashy, but yes" everlue starts before diving once again. This time he didn't go straight for Lucy, instead moving quickly around the sewer, busting in and out of the floor, walls, and roof. He continued to speak as he did so.

"The story itself is crap and to think it was written by the great kemu zleon."

Lucy kept an eye on Everlue tracking his movements. Every time he burst out of a hole he emerged just a little bit closer to where she was standing until he jumped the last ten feet and emerged right next to her, which she expected.

"It's inexcusable," he shouted as he emerged. Lucy dodged, doing a one handed handspring to the side, landing on one leg before having to push off that same leg just as fast as everlue emerged beneath her spinning as he did. Everlue continued towards the ceiling, stalling for just a second to smirk at her before spinning again and diving into the roof. Happy watched, impressed by Lucy's moves.

"I can't believe your arrogance. You forced him to write it!"

Everlue laughed as his voice echoed around the sewer.

"Arrogant, hah, the word doesn't even begin to apply. To tell my story is an honor no matter what the circumstances"

"Then why did you have to black mail him into it" lucy yelled in anger

"Blackmail?" happy asked wonder what lucy meant.

Everlue emerged halfway out the wall twirling his nose hair as he held an arrogant smile.

"What's the big deal? He just needs some extra encouragement to take the job."

"Oh Reeaaally"

"Any fool would jump at the chance to have me as their muse but he had the audacity to say no" Everlue states as he swims through rock before diving again.

"So I gave him the added inspiration in the form of an ultimatum. Write the novel or his family would be stripped of their citizenship."

Happy spoke up in shock "then none of them would be able to join any of the guilds in fiore and make a living. Commerce or magic! Do you really have the power to do that?"

"I have the power to do anything, i got him to write it didn't I" eveluse declared with ego as he emerged in front of the two.

"But I didn't like his attitude, so I decided he'd do best writing in a prison cell, boyoyo" Everlue laughed as Lucy grit her teeth.

"He went on and on about being a brilliant novelist who would never give into threats, but in the end i got what i wanted"

As he was in the air another magic circle appeared around him. Everlue proceeded to curl into a ball and spin at high speed before launching at lucy and happy. The two doged but everlue kept going ricocheting off the sewers surfaces trying to hit them. Lucy and happy ran to the other end of the sewer to get way lucy yelling as she did.

"I can't believe you would go that far to boost your own stupid ego, he was in solitary confinement for three years, don't you know how hard that must have been!"

"Three whole years?!"

Everlue shot down landing in front of the and sending rubble and dust flying. Lucy performed a backflip land 12 feet away in a crouch.

"Perhaps it took him that long to appreciate me, boyoyo"

"You're wrong, more like he couldn't bear to spread your lies. But he had to satisfy your vanity. He knew if he didn't write your character as a heroic champion of justice, a freaking paladin, his family would suffer."

"Tell me how exactly do you know all this?" everlue asked in apprehension that this ugly tramp knew the more minute detail of what happened. Lucy glared as she lifted the book cover to everlue.

"It's all here in black and white"

"What?! I've read that book cover to cover and there's no mention of kemu zeleon in it"

"Well yeah if you read it normally there's no mention of him. But i know something you don't know, long before he was a writer he was a scribe wizard. One who specializes in magic books."

"He was?" happy asked

"What did he do" Everlue growled out

"After he finished the book, he gathered all his remaining strength and cast a final spell on it" lucy says

"What a dirty trick, he turned a book about a great man like me into a hack job, the nerve of that fool" everlue shots diving into the ground attacking lucy who would continue to doge.

"Oh get over yourself!" lucy yelled " its true that he wrote about all the pain and torture you put him through, but the chapters about what you did to him are only a small part of the book. In fact its secret has nothing to do with you"

"Tell us lucy" happys says invested in the drama

"The devil do you mean" evelue says in anger

"I refuse to let you have this book any longer, Duke Everlue. For it was never really yours to begin with" lucy declares as spills out the gold key from earlier. Intending to end this fight right now, she pours her magic into the key as it begins to shine

"Open gate of the giant crab, Cancer"

As the gate forms, tolling bells are heard. The symbol on the gate are two spirals that look like the number six circle each other. As it opens three streams of stardust emerge, two taking the shape of a pair of blades shaped like scissor blades. The final stream condenses into the form of a man with dark skin. His hair is black and braided in red cornrows that end in a shape that resembles crab's pincers. He wears long blue pants and sandals, with shin guards and waist armor of orange tint. On his upper body is a stylish blue jacket and on his face a pair of sunglasses. The most striking part of him are the six appendages extending from his back. Four of them appear to be crab legs only a meter long. The other two are arms with pinchers at the end.

Happy was excited to see a new spirit form Lucy, even more that it's a crab.

"A giant crab, aw yeah, nothing says i'm gonna kick your butt like crab man with razor claws and tough guy sunglasses!" He cheered with stars in his eyes.

Lucy giggled at Happy's actions because what he said was the truth. Cancer held his blades in reverse grip as he crossed his arms and acknowledged lucy.

"Aye lucy, call me for a new hair due today baby?" cancer said in a cool voice

"WWHHAAT?! He's a hairdresser!?" happy yelled in shock

Lucy chose to ignore Happy's comment and inform cancer of the situation.

"Not today cancer, I Need your help" Lucy says as she points at everlue. "Take care of ungly over there please"

"Whatever you say baby"

"So he just makes the bad guys look cooler before they kill us, that's useful, you can send him back now," Happy says dismissively which ticked Lucy off.

"I should send you back, don't underestimate any of my spirits"

While they bantered, Everlue was simmering in rage at the news he just learned. If the girl was able to learn about what he had done to kemu zeleon by reading the book what other info was written in its pages.

'Hhrrgg, what could the secret be? That hack must have written an expose about all my illegal business deals. I can't have that, if the magic council gotwind of how I actually made my fortune, they'll send the rune knights on me, I'll be ruined.'

Deciding that he needs to deal with these wizards quickly, Everlue pulls a golden key from his pocket and channels magic through it. As it begins to glow he shouts the summoning incantation.

"Open gate of the maiden, Virgo"

As with all other spirit summonings a magic circle appears but instead of shining gold like lucys, its glowing purple. The symbol on the gate looks like the letter M but with a few more curves that cross each other. Lucy and Happy were shocked by Everlue summoning a celestial spirit, while Cancer kept a cool head but definitely became more intrigued.

As the great formed parallel to the ground, when it opened, and virgo came through, rocks were thrown up as if virgo popped out of the ground.

"Did I hear my master summon me?" Virgo said as she stood tall.

"Virgo fetch me that book!" Everlue ordered

Lucy and Happy stepped back in apprehension while cancer stepped forward. Lucy was throne for a loop at this new information, she spends all her time around spirits, so how she couldn't tell before was setting up. "How did I not realize she was a spirit?!"

"Baby, look" cancer said

Looking at Cancer who just jutted his chin at Virgo, Lucy, happy and everlue were all dumbfounded as they saw natsu hanging off of Virgo's shoulder. Even virgo was side eyeing her passenger with befuddlement. When she moved through her gate from the main hall to here, she was aware that the pink wizard grabbed her, but when she basically teleported he wasn't supposed to be dragged along.


Back in the main hall just before Virgo was summoned.

Virgo was slowly getting back up while Natsu was trying to figure out where Lucy and Happy went, when he noticed vigor getting up.

"Oh, back for round 2 huh, well bring it on." natsu said as he lit a flame

Virgo however ignored him as she felt her master begin to summon her. A purplish aura of magic surrounded Virgo as her astral gate formed in front of her, and opened. Virgo then proceeded to walk through. Natsu, watching this all happen, wasn't one to let his opponent walk away from a fight.

"Hey where do you think you're going!" he yelled as he rushed over and grabbed the back of Virgos' clothes. The moment he did, he felt his grip forcibly tighten as virgo fully entered the gate, and then…

Vvvvoooohhhhhhmmmmmmmm

Natsu felt himself be forcibly dragged at a ludicrous speed. He was used to moving fast when he and Happy went flying and Happy used his max speed but this was far, far faster than that. At the speed in which they moved, Natsu could barely perceive his surroundings, as he struggled to raise his free arm and shield his face. Not only that, Natsu struggled to breathe, like there was so little air.

Trying to open his eyes, Natsu was only able to see what could only be described as an infinite night sky. Thousands of stars filled his vision no matter where he tried to look, though he was unable to see forward past virgo.

'What the hell is going on!?' Natsu thought as he tightened his grip on Virgo desperate to not let go.

As they moved, another gate appeared right in front of Virgo, which she entered. As the two passed through the gate time seemed to inexplicably slow for Natsu, as if everything around him entered slow motion. In this state, Natsu was able to get a clear glimpse of his surroundings. Looking to his left he saw the vast open space filled with stars but looking to his right, a giant face filled his entire vision.

The face's skin was gray like stone with chiseled features, with a large mustache and groomed beard of white hair with streaks made of hues of blue and purple. The area where they eyes would be were covered in dark shadow, as if no light could enter that area. Framing the face was a helmet of shining green metals and on the forehead was a half star made of gold and just above that a pair of pure white horns curved around the sides.

As natsu started, the area of shadow flashed red as two giant eyes opened and gazed directly at natsu. As time seemed to speed up again and Virgo and Natsu passed through the gate, within Natsu's head he heard a deep smooth voice of a man.

'HMMMM, HOW INTERESTING'

Before natsu could even think, a bluffing flash of white engulfed his vision.


Cancer was in deep thought as he stared at lucy's new friend.

"Natsu, how are you here? And on top of virgo?" she asked

"Uh well i saw her getting up so i grabbed her and then all of sudden were here. though something happened in between, hrrgg, i just cant remember, it happened so fast!?"

Lucy was starting to piece together what had happened.

"So you grabbed her inside the house. But that means you passed through the spirit realm, The ASTRAL SEA! with her. That shouldn't be possible, no human can survive it."

Cancer and virgo were having their own thoughts about this too.

'Baby's right, no human can survive it. The gates act as portals that allow spirits to go anywhere but all must pass through the astral realm first and without special gear its instant death for humans, which means…'

'This boy must not be completely human. He held on when I entered my gate and there are very few other creatures that can survive in the astral realm. Whatever creature he's connected to must be incredibly powerful' virgo thought

"Virgo clean up this rubbish" Everlue yelled. Virgo proceeded to follow her masters command, shaking the boy off of her before going to attack him.

"As you wish master"

She glanced towards cancer, who made eye contact with her. It was good to see him, how long has it been since she'd seen her friend. She took in his appearance and her eyes widened just a little.

'Cancer, you have taken your true form, how many centuries has it been since any of us had held our true power before it was stripped from us?' Virgo looked at the young woman next to him.

'Was it her? Is she your latest master? Does she really know the proper way to summon us?...Is she kind?'

She was in the middle of punching the boy when he cast a spell.

"FIRE DRAGON'S ROAR"

Virgo blocked the attack by crossing her arms but she was thrown back leaving her master unprotected. Lucy took advantage of that, freeing her whip from her belt before restraining everlue with who had no time to react. She then proceeded to throw him into the air with it, right towards cancer who had jumped to meet him.

With quick as a flash movement cancer cut up everlues suit and hair. Removing his ugly nose hair mustache without even nicking the skin. He then used the blunt side of his blades to knock everlue unconscious.

"How's that for a fabulous new look baby"

"It looks great, the troll look matches his personality."

With everlue knocked out cancer also chose to leave. Before the trio had any time to breathe, rumbling was heard all around them. All the holes and tunnels Everlue created had caused that mansion's foundation to become unstable and it was all starting to collapse. They all booked it out of the building which was now falling apart. Virgo was holding the unconscious everlue as destruction rained around her. She was unbothered by it as she watched the three run away with the book. She looked down at her master with an emotionless face before looking again at the trio, specifically cancer's summoner. If anyone saw her face then, they would describe it as a face of longing.


When the trio made it out of the destroyed building, Natsu complimented Lucy on her destroying the mansion. Happy mentioned that they weren't supposed to be destroying stuff while Lucy worried about getting blamed for it. They made their way to the client's house, and when they got their luck why she saved the book instead of destroying it to natsu. Giving the book to mr melon, he asked why they didnt destroy it.

Lucy spoke of how, when she learned it was written by kemu zeleon, she knew there was no way he would have written a book so bad and after reading it, realized there was a spell on it. Lucy talked with mr melon, deciding to call him kaby, and understanding why he wanted to destroy it so badly, to protect his fathers legacy as kemu zeleon's son, whos real name was zekua melon. Lucy asked if he was ever gonna read it, but kaby couldnt bring himself to recalling how is father told him it was garbage.

Natsu became angry at this, asking how he could just burn the last book he ever wrote. He said that some people would kill for that kind of memory, as natsu started to think of his own father and how he has nothing left. Lucy told natsu to let him explain, which kaby did.

He talked about how after his father came home after being missing for three years he cut off his own arm and declared he would never write again. Kaby questioned why he would do something for everlue if it caused him to end up like this. Kaby had an argument with his father on his deathbed and after years of remorse chose to burn the book his father said he hated so much.

"You're wrong Kaby, just look, '' Lucy said as she placed the book into his hands. Almost instantly the book began to glow. Surprised, Kaby let go but the book continued to float in the air. The title lifted off the cover before the letters rearranged themselves.

"Dear Kaby?" kaby said

"Thats right this book is a letter to you, hidden behind a spell that rearranged all of the words and letters so that no one else could read it. I was only able to because of one of my spirits" The book burst open as all of the text flew off the page and flew around the room.

"He didn't stop writing because he was ashamed, but because he completed his masterpiece. A novel containing every thing he ever wanted to say to his beloved son and when you read it the way he intended, it's easily his greatest work ever"

As the words finished rearranging, the book dropped to the floor in front of Kaby, who was on his knees with tears in his eyes. Picking it up he hugged it to his chest.

"I swear i will never let any harm come to this book"

As the trio smiled at the seen natsu spoke up

"Well guess we won't be getting the reward"

"Aye" "HUH"

"We were supposed to destroy it, we didn't finish the job"

"Even so let me do something for you"

"Yeha it's not our fault he decided not to burn the book after we got it!" lucy whined

"Lucy don't be so greedy, you're totally ruining what was a touching moment" happy said

"I NEED THE CASH" she growled at happy


It was the middle of the night as the moon was high in the sky as the trio walked home. Lucy was still sulking about not taking the money while Natsu said it would have looked bad on the guild if they did. Lucy was still upset about it as happy kept calling her greedy while she defeated herself saying they would have taken the job anyway despite the melons not actually being wealthy. Mostly she was upset about walking home but natsu refused to ride in a wagon.

When they made camp for the night, lucy asked natsu how he knew the house wasn't really theirs, to which he explained that it didn't smell like them, say it was obvious. Lucy called them animals while she thought about how luck she was to be able to read zekua menlon's final novel.

"Your writing a novel aren't you" natsu said "all those papers i found at your place ar it"

"Oh so that why she's such a bookworm"

Lucy held her hands to her face embarrassed.

"Please don't tell anyone ok"

"Why not"

"Becuase im a horrible writer, if anyone read my stuff, i'd die of embarrassment"

"Don't worry no one gonna read it" natsu said

"Yhea the way you say it doesn't make me feel any better"


As the trio of mages set a course for home, back in shirostume forces were gathering outside of everlue's former mansion. General Kane of the rune knights stood atop the rubble as his men sorted through the debris.

"Keep searching men, find every bit of evidence you can, even if it's partially destroyed!" kane yelled

The knights digging through the rubble responded with a "sir yes sir!" as they all continued. Nodding at the progress, Kane moved towards the front gates where a lieutenant was currently talking with Kaby Melon and his wife. Seeing the general approaching he turned to address him.

"Sir, these are the Melons, who originally put out the request on everlue." the lieutenant said

"Pleasure to meet you mister and miss's melon, I am General Kane, leader of the rune knights, i'm sorry if they frighten you but it was important that I speak to you before you headed home."

"Of, of course, general," Kaby stuttered out. It wasn't long after Natsu Lucy and Happy left that he was approached by the rune knights and brought to the manor ruins.

Kane nodded as he spoke "As you are aware, you submitted a request to the guild league. The request in particular was a retrieval of a book, normally this would not be a problem, but as you are immigrants to fiore and this was the first request you have submitted, you would not know all the regulations involved in submitting and officializing the request to the guild league. Requests pertaining to another citizen of fiore that would be cited as malicious are illegal, thievery of others property falls under this."

Baby's jaw hung loose as he stuttered to explain himself and how he did not know. Kane simply held up a hand to silence him.

"Relax Mr Melon, you are not in trouble. All requests to the league are finalized under the coalition. When we came upon it, normally we would send it back unapproved, but yours intrigued us to the target of duke everlue. You see the magic council has had issues with everlue before and a request king toma urged us to investigate him. In the investigation we learned that Everlue has been entwined with illegal dealing, but his status allowed him protection from any justice due to lack of evidence.

When your request came through, we allowed it in the hopes that whatever mage took the job, would open up a path to finally deal with him. The book you wanted stolen would you mind explainginy why?" kane asked

As Kaby explained the book and what happened to his father, kane remain silent and stoic. When they finished their tale he let out a low sigh.

"I am sorry for what evelue has done to your family. Rest assured your family will have justice."

It was then that a group of knights arrived pushing forward a few rather ruffed up people.

"General Kane, we brought you some rather interesting people." the knight said as they pushed forward the vanish brothers, who had their hands chained, and virgo who still held the unconscious everlue.

Kane let his eyes roam over the figures as he let his knights speak.

"General, these men here are mercenaries from the southern wolves guild, from minstrel, they have been silent in questioning but were found in the rubble of the mansion, we believe they have a connection to everlue. This woman however has been more forthcoming, she claims to be everlues head maid."

Kane looked over the large form of Virgo who stared blakely at him.

"You work for everlue? It would be in your best interest to turn him over to us!" Kane commanded. Virgo continued to stare blankly as she responded.

"You wish for me to give you my master. Why?"

"Everlue is to be charged with blackmail, extortion, coercion and imprisonment of Zekua Melon. He is to be arrested by the rune knights under my orders, now will you hand him over peacefully, or will you resist and add to your own charge of aiding and abetting his crimes"

Virgo did not respond, instead simply dropping everlue on the ground, letting him landing on his face. She then proceeded to remove a golden key from everlue's pocket. As she did so Kane watched as a small magic circle appear in the air, his knights flinched and raised their weapons but he held a hand to stall them. From the circle emerged a piece of parchment that then began to disintegrate.

"The paper, what was it?" kane asked as he looked at virgo

"That was the contract that bound me to my master, because you are arresting him, it is null and void, i am free from his service"

"Free from his service, you say you were his slave?"

"In a way, as a celestial spirit our contracts are law, if he saw me as a slave, or servant then that is what I am."

"I am sorry, you had to endure such a terrible master" kane said with sympathy

"It is fine, it is simply, the way things are"

"What will you do now?"

"Normally I would return to the spirit world, while my key would remain until someone else found it, but the nature of this situation is different. The wizard that defeated my former master was also a celestial spirit summoner, and through an old law of ours she has claim to my key."

Kane nodded along as virgo explained before turning to the melons.

"Mr melon, the mages you hired what guild were they from?"

"Uh, they were from fairy tail sir"

Collectively the rune knights let out groans and sighs of exasperation

"Of course it was fairy tail"

"Who else could have caused this much damage in one afternoon"

"It hasn't even been three days since hargeon!"

Kane sighed as well, messaging his forehead to curb the growing headache. It was twice now that he's had to clean up their messes. He was considering that he may have to pay them a visit to discuss with their guildmaster.

"Well I suppose that's par for the course, I have my own business with the mages of fairy tail. If you would like, i can make sure that your key finds its way to their summoner" kane said as he held his hand out.

Virgo considered his words before placing the key in his palm, and sensed no ill intentions. After that she disappeared in a flash of sparkles. Taking the key, Kane placed it in a secure pouch on his belt before turning to his nights.

"Take everlue and the men to the closest jail, there we will continue to question them. The rest of you keep searching through the debris. Mr and Mrs Melon you are free to go, in a few weeks time we will reach out to you for restitution for your late father."

As the melons left Kane sighed again. He's been doing that alot it seems. There is always so much to do. As he made his way to follow the knights to question his prisoners the sound of hooves caught his ears. Looking down the road, a dust cloud was seen as a horse in full sprint came towards him with a knight on its back shouting his name.

"General Kane! General Kane! Emergency! A Message from the council!" the knight yells as he pulls the reins of his mount. As he came to a stop, Kane let the man catch his breath before he spoke.

"General Kane, we've received word that the blackgate facility has been broken into!"

Kane's eyes went wide at the news. The blackgate facility was where incredibly dangerous things were kept in storage where they were never to see the light of day again, on the large island of Fioen, which was part of Fiore's territory. He knew of the types of objects and artifacts kept there. Kane gestures to the soldier to continue.

"Inventory was taken less than twelve hours ago when it was discovered that one of the matrix seals was broken. Everything was accounted for except for one pair of items, a wooden flute and a book."

Kane felt his heart stop as his eyes went wide

"Send word to all garrisons, have them start screening every Bard they can, this must take top priority. The artifacts stolen must be recovered at all cost!"

"Yes sir" the knight said as he took off on his horse to spread the orders.

Kane turned to face Shirotsume town. From atop this hill he could see it all and the people who lived there, happily living their day to day lives.

"Should the dark power of those artifacts be released, gods help us"


Chapter 4 done and now we start the eisenwald arc. This is where im gonna try to pick up the pace of the story and implement more AU ideas i have for the fairy tail universe.

As said before i'm making changes to the spirits and for this chapter it was cancer. It was hinted at through dialogue from virgo that cancer had his "true" form and power back though he may not have looked it from the discription.

She mentioned the true way to summon spirits which i hope was presented well enough when lucy did it with plue. As for cancers appearance, i liked how he had crab legs out his back but i also like how he had claws in his eclipsed version, so i turned a pair of legs into arms that he can use. I also change his scissors to the swords that lucy had when she used star dress.

now at the end of the chapter, we got to see general kane again, and learn that a dark artifact has been stole, which is of course lullaby. Now their will be a new original character introduce in the up comin chapters as safe to say they will be a bard.

thats all for now and please comment i would really like to hear some feedback on the story, see you next time.
