(Last Time)

From the head of the group, Pantherlily turned his head, his lip curling upwards, revealing a set of sharp teeth as he looked at the solider for a moment, before he saw he was pointing down toward the ground. With Pantherlily's cat like eyes following the man's arm, before locking onto what he was gesturing at, a large tree like structure, one which had windows and a large orange banner overhead which said 'Fairy Tail'.

"We've found the Fairy Tail Guild!" The soldier then continued, stating the obvious as he did so.

"Begin the descent, we've found our quarry!" Pantherlily roared out, gaining the attention of the rest of the mounted army as he gripped the reigns of his Legion and led the charge. The hundred or so giant grey beast descending toward the ground, even as the dozens of airships behind them altered their course. The Edolesian army now closing in on their foe.

Chapter 20

( - )

(In the throne room of the Royal Palace)

"What is going on out there?! Where is Byro? What is the progress of the plan?!" King Faust demanded angrily, his face scrunched up in irritation as he glared around his large, throne room, his gaze flickering over the dozen or so armed and armoured guards around him, and at his messenger Coco. All of them twitching and at the sharpness in his voice, and the look of fury in his eyes.

"Well!" Both anger and confusion tinged the King's tone as he tried to work out what was going on, after all it felt like everything was spiralling out of control. He had sent Pantherlily and most of his army off to wipe out the Fairy Tail Guild, and had sent his Chief Scientist, Byro, to set up the Anima machine to start draining Earthland of more magical power, an entire countries worth this time, if not more. A quantity that should be more than enough to begin his plan to grind the Exceeds under his heel, and provide the Kingdom with a source of infinite magic.

Despite the importance of everything that was going on however, he had heard nothing from any of his commanders, or their lieutenants. In fact everything had been silent, from all fronts, and he had no idea how anything was progressing. Had Byro turned on the machine and begun the process of draining the parallel world of Earthland of magic? Had Pantherlily wiped out the last facet of resistance, Fairy Tail? Had Erza Knightwalker been found, or was she dead in a ditch somewhere? He was blind to the on goings in his Kingdom, and he hated it!

"Coco you idiot girl! Go find out what is happening, I demand to know!" Faust shouted, his gaze locking onto the younger girl, who flinched at the sound of his voice, before she scuttled off to fulfil his orders.

"Y-yes your Majesty!" Coco replied shakily, before she gladly dashed away, bursting through the doors at the far end of the cavernous throne room, thankful to be away from the brooding and unpredictable King.

King Faust scowled at that, even as he began to drum his fingers on the arm of his throne impatiently. With Sugarboy in jail, awaiting his punishment for his failure, and with Knightwalker missing presumed dead, he now only had three lieutenants left. Byro, his Chief Scientist, who was currently operating the Anima machine. Hughes one of his military Commanders, the one who was currently overseeing the forces left in the Capital City and protecting the Anima machine, which was especially important with the plan being so close to completion. And then there was Pantherlily, a filthy Exceed, but a capable and loyal solider, one of his most powerful ones, who at that moment was exterminating the last forces of resistance in the Kingdom.

That was the hierarchy, there were no nobles, not after he had them purged several years ago, nor was there any body of representatives, councillors or advisers. No, he had had them all executed, imprisoned or imprisoned several years ago, when he had begun campaign to wipe out the Wizarding Guild, and their flagrant use of magic. Something that had not gone down well, which had led to him having to take a hard-line, and centralise power.

No, nowadays the Kingdom was under martial law and entirely ruled by Faust, and governed by the five lieutenants under him, two of whom were now gone. Sure he had plenty of other servants, the soldiers that fought for him, and the government officials that went about implementing his policies and fulfilling his orders, but no for the most part the Kingdom revolved around himself and five other people.

Faust preferred it that way as it meant that he could keep a close eye on those who might attempt to depose him, or threaten his rule, and it also meant that the political, economic and military power of the Kingdom was entirely centralised in the Capital City, and under his iron fisted rule, however now, with two of his lieutenants dead or imprisoned, the system was now beginning to fall apart, and he felt like he was losing control, and at the most inopportune time too.

It was as that thought was going through his mind, that he was distracted by a loud commotion outside of the throne room, consisting of shouting and the clashing of metal. With Faust's dark eyes flicking over to the large double doors in confusion, after all Coco couldn't possibly be back yet, nor did it sound like the hyperactive girl running around like an idiot.

Faust's confusion however soon turned into shock and anger though, as the disturbance became louder and his soldiers outside began shouting louder. Before moments later the doors to the throne room exploded open, and the two heavy, oaken doors were torn off of their hinges and sent flying through the air, before they slammed into the stone floor, a half dozen armoured bodies smashing into the floor with them.

A chorus of groans and cries of pain following after the deafening sound of the doors hitting the floor, as armoured bodies clattered across the stone floor.

Looking up in shock, Faust's eyes locked on the two people that caused the disturbance, both of whom confidently walked into the throne room. One of them a striking and familiar red head, who was dressed in a dark and somewhat revealing outfit, with the beautiful woman wielding an incredibly powerful magical spear as well. The other figure was an equally familiar looking man with thick black hair, piercing green eyes, and an amused smile on his face. The man in question wearing a set of casual clothing, and a pair of swords on his belt, one of which was a glowing golden sword, whilst the other, the King recognised as Rosa Esparda, Sugarboy's old sword.

"Percy! Erza!" Faust snapped, his gaze flicking to Percy, who looked to have not aged a day since he had worked for Faust some ten years or so ago as his Chief Engineer, in fact he looked even younger then back then, which was impossible. Then after that Faust looked over to Erza, his loyal subordinate, and one of his fiercest warriors, who had now apparently betrayed. "What is the meaning of this?!"

"Well I would have thought that was obvious." Percy replied dryly, his tone of voice somewhat harder and harsher than Faust remembered, his sea green eyes glowing faintly in the dimly lit room, which caused a sudden shiver of fear run down his spine. "We're here to kill you!"

Faust opened his mouth several times at that admission, his now wide, bloodshot eyes flicking from the smirking Erza, to the amused looking Percy, and then over at the still groaning soldier that were scattered around the floor at their feet, and his other guards, all of whom were tightly gripping their weapons.

"Well what are you waiting for?! Kill them!" Faust snapped, standing up in his throne now as he screamed at his soldiers, his voice pitching slightly in his rage as he thrust his finger in the intruder's direction.

His soldiers all roared at that, before they levelled their spears and charged the duo head on. His guards may not be the strongest, not when compared to his commanders, but at least they were loyal.

Not that Faust paid them much attention, after all he had no doubts that Erza Knightwalker would make quick work of his guards, as she had been one of his most deadly warriors for a reason. On top of which this Percy look alike was giving off a dangerous vibe. So yes, Faust didn't believe his men stood a chance at actually killing the duo, but they could create a distraction, and buy Faust time to escape and get to his ultimate weapon, the Dorma Anim, his heavily magic consuming weapon of mass destruction.

Of course not everything went to plan, because as Faust turned to flee the room, he was shocked to find a spear of ice protruding out of his gut, with blood welling around the wound, and spraying out, spattering the floor with crimson specks, staining his fine clothing as he stumbled forwards, a sudden agonizing pain spreading from his back to his front.

"Wha…" Faust gasped out as he turned around, his knees giving way as he collapsed to the ground, his watering and pain filled eyes flicking over to the rest of the throne room where he could see Erza wiping some blood off of her spear, a bored look on her face as she stood over the dead, dying and crippled bodies of his guards.

After which Faust's now blurred gaze flicked over to his apparent killer Percy, who in the time it had taken Faust to realise his predicament had come up behind him, his green eyes looking down at him dispassionately, his hand still extended, a film of misty, icy air slowly dispersing from around it.

"H-how…?" Faust gasped out, blood still pouring down from his wound, staining his clothing crimson, and spilling onto the stone floor, pooling around him. He was dying, he knew that much. "Y-you're not Percy…"

"Not the one you knew." Percy replied softly, before he swiped his hand through the air, a blade of water coalescing in the air around his hand as he did so, before with a single swish he beheaded the King. With there being no pomp or pageantry to the tyrants end, just a swish of his hand, a slight exertion of power and the King of Edolas was dead, his reign of terror ending with almost embarrassing ease.

"Well that was anticlimactic." Erza said abruptly as she finished cleaning her spear and walked over to Percy, her gaze lingering on the body of her former Master, before she looked away, not all that concerned with the death of Edolas' mad and unstable King. Which was odd considering she had spent the better part of her life serving him.

"He had no magic, or a weapon." Percy shrugged, before he turned to walk away. "And I wasn't foolish enough to allow him to go and get one. The man was dangerous, far too dangerous to be left alive, and who knows what weapons or mischief he had stashed away. Better to give him a swift end here and now, then deal with whatever chaos he causes later."

"He was a mad, old tyrant." Erza nodded, as she made to follow after Percy. "But he wasn't stupid, I just expected more from him."

"Well maybe if we gave him a chance to prepare he could have done, but again that would have been naive and foolish." Percy replied before he left the throne room, leaving the dead King and his dead and dying guards behind him as he did so. "Now come on, let's get to the Anima chamber before that idiot Natsu breaks it."

"Is he really that bad?" Erza asked sceptically as she continued to trail after the older man, both of them passing the score of dead, dying and injured guards as they did so.

"Oh you have no idea." Percy sighed, a hint of resignation in his voice now.

(Elsewhere in the Palace)

"Come on, we need to keep going!" Lucy shouted as she ran alongside her Celestial Spirits, Taurus and Virgo, a whip in her hand as the three of them fought through a crowd of armoured Edolasian soldiers. The three of them ploughing through the mass of soldiers filling the corridor as they fought their way to the Anima machine.

With Gajeel and Natsu storming ahead of her, the two of them driving through scores of soldiers, both of them drawing on their Dragon Slayer magic as they burnt and smashed anything that got in their way. The two of them, as well as Lucy and her Celestial Spirits easily driving the numerous soldiers back, as they forced their way through the densely packed corridor, and over to the large chamber, where they could just about see the Anima machine.

It had been close to ten minutes now since the group had rounded the corner and run into the several platoons of soldiers that were protecting the all-important Anima machine, the group of soldiers all being led by a somewhat extravagant looking man who as wearing a long, billowing, white cloak, elegant clothing, and had dark blue coloured hair with a white strip running through it.

With this man, the soldier's commander, Hughes, having stayed towards the back of the group, a wand like object in his hand. One which he used to control his surroundings as he bombarded the group with fallen bits of rubble and tapestries, which he had manipulated to take on the form of fists.

On top of that the man's magical weapon seemed to extend to allowing him to control the armour of his fallen soldiers, as for everyone Natsu, Lucy and Gajeel defeated, the same soldier was forced to his feet, regardless of the man inside the armours state, as it instead started flailing and attacking the Fairy Tail mages with wild abandon.

It had trapped the group in somewhat of a stalemate as this Hughes character was controlling the surrounding corridor, and the armour of his soldiers, animating them to attack the group continuously, no matter how many times the group of Fairy Tail mages slapped them down and drove through them.

"We're working on it!" Gajeel growled in response, before he bull-rushed a group of soldiers, his flesh taking on the consistency of iron, and his two fists turning into spiked hammers as he smashed soldiers aside, aiming to shatter the armour so Hughes could no longer animate it. The anger prone Iron Dragon Slayer, weathering the weak attacks the soldiers threw back at him, as their weapons bounced off of him, or just missed entirely, with Gajeel being too fast and too durable for them to easily deal with.

"It's that Hughes guy!" Natsu shouted, his fist completely on fire as he threw blasts of fire at the soldiers trying to encircle him, spinning as he did so, his feet dancing across the floor as he landed several kicks into the guts of those who came too close. "We need to take him down first, or wait for him to run out of magic!"

Lucy grit her teeth at that, even as she lashed out with her whip, catching one of the soldiers around his leg, before she pulled and knocked him onto his arse, just in time for him to fall down a hole Virgo created in the floor, the three of them, Virgo, Lucy and Taurus, having gotten into a system of trapping the soldiers, so as to stop them from attacking them.

For the three Fairy Tail mages the most annoying thing about this whole situation, was that most of the soldiers were unconscious or no longer wanted to fight anymore by this point, with them only being driven on by their implacable, and callous master, Hughes, and his controlling magic. Were it not for him, then they would have already broken through to the machine and be in the process of reversing it, and returning them, and the rest of the Fairy Tail Guild back home.

Fortunately though the Fairy Tail group had a secret weapon, and that was Wendy Marvel. Someone who Hughes had overlooked, with him being so distracted holding off Lucy, Gajeel and Natsu. All of which had allowed the small, blue haired Sky Dragon Slayer, with the help of her flying companion, Carla, to fly far above the battle, following the high ceiling of the hallway. Which in turn had allowed the young girl and her white cat to hover a dozen or so feet above the still distracted and smirking Hughes.

Without a word, Wendy sent her fighting comrades a single look, noticing as she did how hard they were working to draw Hughes attention to them, even as they fought the never-ending mass of soldiers. After which, her teeth gritted and her fist clenched into fists, the blue haired Dragon Slayer dropped, wind erupting from her body and enshrouding it entirely as she shot down towards Hughes, her leg extending as she made to slam her foot into his head in a perfect crescent kick.

"What?!" Hughes shouted as he heard a sudden whistling above him, his smirk vanishing as he tore his eyes away from the ongoing battle, and instead looked up in surprise. His dark eyes widening as he saw a blue haired girl shooting through the air towards him. The girl moving at such high speeds, that he had only just had the chance to raise his wand, before she slammed into him.

The girl's wind enshrouded foot slamming into the side of his head with the force of a freight train, blasting him to one side as she did so, his skull partially fractured as he slammed into a nearby wall, several ribs breaking as he did so, before he then crumpled to the floor in a broken and battered heap, his breathing now ragged, as darkness consumed him and he slipped out of consciousness.

The clatter of armour being the last thing he heard before he passed out, as nearly a hundred of his soldiers collapsed to the floor, his magical control of their armour broken, which led to their battered and unconscious bodies giving out of them as they collapsed, like puppets which had just had their strings cut.

"Way to go Wendy!" Natsu shouted as he saw this, before both he and Gajeel bulled forward, smashing into the few remaining soldiers and knocking them down to join their fellows, even as Wendy's feet once again touched the floor. The blue haired girl's eyes fixing on the slumped over, bleeding Hughes, as she heard his pained groan and saw his ragged breathing. With this being the first time she had ever seriously injured someone, or at least that she knew of.

"Hey Wendy are you ok?" Lucy muttered as she walked over to the seemingly shell-shocked Wendy, putting her arm around the younger girl as she did so, somewhat understanding the thoughts swirling around the blue haired girl's mind.

"Ermm, yeah, fine. I'm just…, well I've never…" Wendy stuttered out uncertainly, as she looked up at Lucy.

"It'll be fine, he'll be aching for a few days but he'll live." Lucy said softly, picking up on the younger girl's worries before she began to lead her away, heading to the now undefended chamber as she did so, even as Gajeel and Natsu finished knocking out, or incapacitating the remaining soldiers, the two of them guarding their backs and watching out for the two girl's as they did so.

( - )

(A few minutes later)

Running towards the Anima chamber, both Percy and Erza passed the mounds of burnt, battered, groaning and moaning soldiers, both of them hurrying through the double doors at the end of the corridor and into the Anima chamber as they did so, where the two of them could see Lucy, Carla and Wendy fiddling around with the machine, whilst Natsu, Gajeel and Happy stood guard.

"Good you managed to get to the Anima machine." Percy said as he entered the room, his sea green eyes automatically flicking around, searching for danger before they settled on the group of his Guild mates in the centre, his gaze lingering a moment longer on Wendy, before he looked to Lucy. "Have you got it working yet?"

"Nearly, I've reversed all the settings, I think we just need to turn it on." Lucy replied a relieved smile on her face as she looked up at Percy. "Have you done…, well, I mean have you finished whatever it was you were going to do to the King?"

Percy nodded curtly at that. "His reign of tyranny is over, he won't be massacring or oppressing anyone else."

Lucy gulped at that, realising what he meant, before she shared an uncomfortable look with Natsu, neither of them being all that sure about the whole killing their enemy's thing. Gajeel however just shrugged it off, he might not like Percy that much, but he understood when it was necessary to kill, even if it was unpleasant. As for Wendy, well she thankfully remained oblivious to the ongoing conversation as she and Carla both continued to fiddle around with the Anima machine, making sure that the settings were right.

Ignoring the others Percy wandered over to the machine, his gaze flicking over the complicated console, and all the intricate circuits, before his gaze instead went down to the tube full of liquefied Ethernano he could see at the bottom of the machine, after which he then looked up at the metal pole protruding from the machine and pointing up at the sky.

With Percy's gaze then locking onto a spiral like hatch on the dome like ceiling above him. One which obviously opened when the machine was active, no doubt letting the beam of energy the machine let loose, or whatever it was it created, free, so it could make a portal in the sky and suck up all the magic from either Edolas or Earthland.

"If everyone is ready to head home, then alright then let's turn it on." Percy said simply, even as he looked around and checked that everyone that was present was ready to go. After all with the King dead, and a way back home with all of their friends in tow, they no longer had a reason to stick around.

The others all nodded at that, all of them by this point sick and tired of being in this foreign land, and angsting to be back in Earthland, and once again in Magnolia Town, back in the comforting and familar company of their fellow Guild mates.

"Wait, that's it?" Erza suddenly said loudly, the red head's voice as strong as ever, but also holding a slight note of hurt and shock in it. "You're just going to fuck off and leave without a word?"

The assembled group all turned to her as she said that. A slightly confused frown on Natsu's face as he looked at her, as if he had forgotten about the red head and wasn't sure what to really say to her now. Lucy and Wendy however just looked a little guilty, as Knightwalker, for all the bad she had apparently done here in Edolas, had helped them a lot, and had been nothing but amicable, even if she had been slightly foul mouthed and abrupt, since they had met her.

As for Gajeel, well he just grunted in response, before he looked away, not really that bothered about the red head. In fact she meant about as much to him as her Earthland counterpart, he didn't know either of them that well, and so wasn't really bothered what happened. Sure if they were in danger he would help, but otherwise, he honestly didn't give a damn.

As for Percy, he merely tilted his head to the side curiously, a slight smile playing around his lips. "Well I asked if everyone was ready, and we've not really got any other reason to stay…"

"Well what about me? I thought…, well I thought we were becoming friends. And you're not even going to say bye?!" Erza snapped, her face flushing almost as red as her hair as she saw those gathered around her, looking at her, before she shook off her embarrassment, and locked eyes with Percy. Her confused and conflicted brown eyes boring into his amused sea green ones.

It was as she did so, that Erza felt a lance of hurt shoot through her. She had never really been close to anyone before, she was orphaned young and had no family left at all, and at the academy her excellence had led to her excelling rapidly, alienating all her classmates. And whilst acting as one of the King's Army Commanders, she had been far above the level of the common soldier, too far to socialise with them, or at least not without her fellow Commander's scorning her.

As for her fellow Commanders, and Byro, well she had hated all of them. Hughes had been arrogant and sadistic, Sugarboy had been annoying and self-righteous, Pantherlily had been curt, dismissive and aggressive, and Byro had been creepy and lecherous. She didn't like a single one of them, and as for the King, well he had been her superior, and had been somewhat unstable and unpredictable.

Either way she had gone through her entire life without making any real connections, be they friendly, familial, or romantic. Nor had she ever really felt the desire to, at least until she had met Percy. Someone who was stronger than her, but not wantonly cruel or aggressive. Instead he was pragmatic and somewhat sarcastic, and treated her like he would anyone else, neither being intimidated by her, nor hating her, but instead he was entirely neutral in how he dealt with her, treating her based on who she was as a person, and not on her abilities or her reputation.

It had been refreshing, and in spite of herself, she had found herself growing fond of the sarcastic and cynical older man.

"Well I had assumed you would be coming with us." Percy replied with a shrug and a slight smile.

"Eh!?" The surrounding wizards all exclaimed, including Erza.

"Wait what you were going to bring her back with us?" Natsu shouted, looking from Erza to Percy in shock. "What about Erza, our Erza?"

"I'm sure they'll get along." Percy shrugged, before a thoughtful look passed across his face. "I think…"

"B-but you can't just bring her back with us! She has no magic?!" Lucy shouted, now quite confused herself.

Percy nodded at that before he clicked his fingers. "Oh yeah I almost forgot about that. Hey Lucy do you still have those X-balls?"

"Ermm yeah…" Lucy replied, before she pulled the bottle of grey pills out of her pocket and handed them over. "Why?"

"Because." Percy began as he opened the bottle and swallowed one of the pills, after which he handed another one over to the still blankly staring Erza Knightwalker. "I've worked out what the X-balls do. These pills, they contain highly condensed Ethernano, basically it contains magical particles which infuses into every cell of your body, supercharging them so to speak, which works regardless of whether or not you have inherent magic. I mean don't get me wrong, the effects are only temporary and she won't be able to wield magic like any of you. But it will still infuse her with magic and pull her into the portal like the rest of us."

Taking the pill Erza stared at it blankly, before she looked over at Percy, her eyes hardening as she did so, and irritation building up within her. "You could have asked you know!? I could have had other things going for me here, and might not have wanted to come with you!?"

That was a lie and she knew it, even so she was irritated with his assumption.

"Well I'm giving you a choice now, take the pill and come to Earthland with us, or don't take the pill and stay here." Percy shrugged, before he smiled at the scowling red head.

Gazing at the pill for a moment, Erza needed barely a few seconds to decide.

"Well then, let's go!" Percy said with a nod.

( - )

(Elsewhere in Edolas)

Letting out a bellow of anger, Pantherlily slammed into the scowling Percy, the two of them trading blows as they rapidly and fiercely fenced back and forwards. The giant Exceed snarling as he hacked and slashed with his giant sword, holding the smaller human off, even as the man's blue haired brat, Wendy, attacked him from one side, and the equally annoying and vicious blonde, Lucy Ashely, lashed out at him with his whip. The three of them matching the fierce Exceed warrior, holding him off, even if they were not able to defeat him, or hurt the vicious, larger being.

As this was going on, similar fights and duels were going on all across the field of battle, as the Fairy Tail Guild and the Royal Army clashed. The Dark Guild holding their own for the moment as the quality of their members stood strong against the sheer number of soldiers, a stalemate that was swiftly coming to an end as the Edolasian soldiers brought their full numbers to bear.

"Just surrender Fairy Tail scum, surrender and I will make your deaths quick!" Pantherlily snarled as he slashed out with his sword, his blade a blur, and his claws extending from his free hand as he knocked Percy to the floor as he did so, his feline eyes flashing with rage and barely contained hatred. As he leapt forward knocking Lucy and Wendy to one side, his sword extended to finish the middle aged Guild Master off.

However before he could land the final strike, Pantherlily let out a distinctly unmanly yowl, as he suddenly felt a tugging in his midriff, before somehow he was wrenched into the air, his sword almost falling from his hand, before he gripped it tighter, even as he flailed and tried to get free of the invisible grip holding him, a pair of massive white wings erupting from his back as he did so.

"What! What is this?!" Pantherlily roared as he swung his sword around, before freezing as he saw glowing streams of energy passing by him, the energy coming from the weapons and armour of the surrounding wizards and soldiers, from the Fairy Tail Guild Hall itself and even from the land.

All around the battlefield men and women stopped fighting as they saw the magic getting drained from not only their weapons, but also from the very earth itself.

"What's happening!?"

"Where's the magic going?!"

"Is the world ending?!"

"No, this the Anima machine. It's been reversed, and it is draining all of the magic from the land!" Percy shouted, getting attention from both his Guild mates and the soldiers around him as he did so. With all fighting having ceased due to the ongoing phenomenon, the previous animosity completely forgotten as people looked up to him, hanging on his every word as he looked to have an explanation for the ongoing occurrence.

"What does that mean!?" Someone asked, echoing what many others wondered.

"It means that Edolas is entering a brand new era, one without magic." Percy muttered in response, a wistful smile on his face as his eyes flickered up to the still flailing Pantherlily, one of the fiercest and most deadly warriors in Edolas, as he and the world's magic were sucked into the sky.

"Lisanna!" The familiar voice of Mira screamed, catching Percy and many others attention, as they looked over and saw that the youngest Strauss sister was getting pulled into the sky too, pulled into the sky to join the rest of the magic and magical beings that were being dragged up there and into the swirling Anima portal.

(Elsewhere)

Walking through the palace's throne room, Mystogen reached up and pulled the headscarf off of his head, revealing his spiky blue hair, and the red tattoo which ran down one side of his face.

Looking around the larger cavernous room, there was a disconsolate expression on the former Prince of Edolas' face as he took in the several dead soldiers that littered the room, and those that were still alive, but groaning in pain.

His sadness however was not for these random soldiers though, but was instead for the slumped over headless body of the King, a single tear trickling down his face as he knelt by the old man's body, reaching out as he did so, before he picked up the dead King's head and brought it to his chest.

All the ferocity and ruthlessness that the man had had in life gone, as in death he looked so old, weary and broken. This is not how he had planned on things going, this is not what he had wanted to happen.

( - )

AN: So what do you all think? I hope it didn't feel rushed, but I wanted to bring the arc to an end so I can push on with the story and go on to the next arc, and get back to developing and exploring the rest of the Fairy Tail Guild. That being said I did enjoy the Edolas Arc, though not as much as I thought I would, I think I preferred the Tartaros Arc and the Nirvana Arc a lot more. That and the Tenrou Island Arc is a good spot of fun.

So yeah I hope you all enjoyed the chapter, and also try out some of my other stories if you have the time.

On top of which I was quite happy to see that there are now more Percy Jackson/ Fairy Tail stories, which is great as this is a very much underused crossover type.

Thanks for reading the story, and I hope you all review and stay tuned for more!

See you all later.

Seagate.
