Previously on a fairy tail retold.
Happy: Natsu, Gray, Lucy, and I headed to Galuna Island, led by their fearless leader, Happy; it's a scary place because it's cursed.
Lucy: You are everything but fearless
Happy: along the way, we found some demons, prominent eyebrows, and a demon frozen in ice.
Natsu: pretty weird so far
Me: well, here we go
[##Deliroa theme##]
"I can't believe it's him, Deliroa," Gray said. Shock and anger filled his voice as he stared at the monster sealed in ice.
"Are you sure this is the same monster your monster sealed away?" Natsu asked. He walked up to Gray.
"I'm positive," Gray said with a fearful look in his eye.
"Why would this be transported from the northern continent to Galuna Island," Happy asked.
"Wait, what if this has something to do with the curse," Lucy asked.
"Maybe," Gray answered. "It may have been sealed in ice, but he's still alive."
"How is that possible," Natsu asked.
Gray let out a sigh. "My master, Ur used a spell caused Ice shell," Gray explained. "It's so strong that not even the most powerful flame spells could melt it."
Natsu looked at the block of ice in amazement 'I'd love to test that theory," he thought to himself.
"Wait, if the Ice can't be melted, why bring it here," Lucy asked.
"I don't know," Gray answered," but I do know that whatever it is, it can't be good." Gray let out a short breath.
"We need answers," Natsu said, turning towards Lucy. "Let's go find those guys."
"NO!" Gray shouted. "We need to stay here and wait," Gray said as he looked at the sealing.
"wait for what," Happy asked.
"For the moon to come out," Gray told him, "whatever they're doing, it has something to do with the moon."
Natsu turned, "All right."
Lucy just nodded, "Well, stay here."
Gray looked at Deliroa one more time. "Don't worry, Ur, I won't let you down again."
Deliroa
Natsu, Lucy, and Gray sat on the cave's opposite side. Lucy occasionally would look over to see both boys having the look of deep thoughts on their faces.
"Hey, Happy," Lucy asked.
"Yeah," Happy answered.
"Why does Nasu seem so distant," Lucy asked. "I mean, he always has this look in his eye."
"Aye," Happy said. "Natsu normally isn't like this," Happy told her. "he's normally more chipper."
Lucy then turned her attention to Gray, who also had a look of deep thought on his face.
Gray continued to stare at the demon, the memories of his time with his master flowing into his mind.
Flashback
In a tundra, We find a younger Gray following behind an older woman, his master Ur. "Gray," she asked as she turned back to see the boy shivering. "Is sure ok," she said in a concerned voice. "Like I told you, training with me will be tough."
"Yeah," Gray said while shivering, "I'll make it."
End Flashback
"Aww!" Lucy moaned, " I know I agreed to wait, but this is so boring," Oh, I know." Lucy reached into her bag and pulled out one of her silver keys {open gate of the harp constellation: Lyre}
a poof of smoke revealed a young girl. She has waist-length hair that curls at the end and wears a pink bonnet on her head. Her cheeks have round blush marks, and she wears a long dress with heart prints on her waist. She wears leather shoes as well. She has tiny white wings and a large harp on her back.
"Hi, Lucy," she shouted gleefully as she greeted her friend. "Why don't you call me anymore? You know I'd love to help you, ya big meanie."
"I'm a meanie, huh? You're the one that said I could only call you three days a month.
"I said that," Lyre asked as Happy sighed.
"Great, another weirdo."
"So, what would you like me to sing for you today," Lyre asked.
"Anything you like," Lucy replied.
"A song about fish," Happy shouted.
"Great, 'cause I got one I know you're going to love," Lyre shouted, ignoring Happy's request.
"Lyre has the most beautiful voice," Lucy said with sparkles in her eyes.
"Mira's a singer too," Happy retorted, "and she sings me songs about a fish."
Lyre let out a short breath before she started to play, causing Happy to begin to relax while Natsu, who had his back against a rock, began to form a smile.
Words are born into the air.
And quickly fade out in the wind
But they find their way inside you.
Where they live always...
When the skies are dark and full of rain
Look inside your heart.
The light, so warm will and all aglow
Shining just like the sun.
You can see just how much you've grown.
How strong you are...
A love will open up to you.
And it starts from the day that you,
first heard those words.
As Gray heard her sing, he remembered when Ur was teaching him ice-make magic. He recalled how much she smiled when he finally got the spell right; tears began to escape his eyes.
"Gray," Lucy asked, hearing his sobbing. "What's the matter."
"It's nothing," he said, refusing to look back at Natsu, who stared at him. "I'm not crying."
"Maybe we should try for something a little more upbeat," Lucy said to Lyre.
"Well, why didn't you say that," Lyre told her.
"Maybe we should skip the songs," Gray said with a hint of fear. "We need to keep quiet so we're not found out."
Later, Lucy, Happy, and Natsu had all fallen asleep, leaving Gray's thoughts interrupted when the ground beneath them began to shake.
"What's that," Lucy asked.
"is it a night yet?" Natsu shouted.
Above Deliroa, a purple magic circle appeared, followed by a beam of light that struck the ice.
"What's going on," Gray asked as he stood up. "The light is shining on Deliroa."
"I don't think that's a coincidence," Natsu stood up.
"Let's move. We need to find the source of that light."
the group then ran you a flight of stairs, leading them back to the temple they fell in. "Who would place a magic circle on the temple," Gray asked.
"I don't know, but let's find out," Natsu shouted as he ran off,
followed By Gray Lucy and Happy
they came outside to see a group of people in ropes, all standing around in a circle chanting, "What are they doing?" Natsu whispered to the group, saying the beam had led up to the moon.
"It looks like those freaks are casting a spell to collect moonlight," Nasu said.
"And cast it on Deliroa," Lucy finished. "But what for."
"It's an ancient spell called the moon drip," Lyre said, appearing behind the group.
"what are you still doing here? "Luy shouted in a low voice.
"I see, so that's what they're trying to do," Lyre said.
"All right, tease," Lucy said. "Fill us in."
"They're using the moon drip to melt the Ice surrounding that demon underground and resurrect it," Lyre explained.
" but they can't," Gray shouted, " You can't melt the Ice from an Ice shell."
"While I hate to say it," Lyre said, facing Gray. "That's not entirely true; while the Ice shell is powerful, it can be broken by moon drip."
"what," Happy asked
"those idiots," Gray almost shouted. "They never witnessed the wrath of Deliroa."
"I'm afraid what those villagers think is a curse is a side effect of being exposed to all this moon drip."
"that isn't good." Natsu was about to get up when Lucy dragged him back down.
"hold it," she told him. "Someone coming this way."
a man in armor appeared, followed by Sherry. Tobey and Yuka walked right past the group.
"Man," Yuka said, "we looked all day and didn't find anything." Tobey, behind him, who was sleepwalking due to not getting any sleep, suddenly woke up and shouted, "Maybe 'cause there wasn't any."
Sherry approached the man known as the cold emperor, who Gray kept his eyes trained on. "I'm sorry to say cold emperor, but we thought we heard some intruders earlier today but couldn't find anything."
"Intruders, you say," caused Gray to grow a shocked expression in his eyes.
"So that guy is their leader," Natsu said.
"He's trying to act all high and mighty," Lucy added, "wearing that stupid mask and cape."
"I don't know, it looks kinda cool," Happy said.
"Has Deliroa been awakened yet?" the cold emperor asked.
"It should be later tonight or tomorrow," Sherry answered.
"Pick one girl," Tobey shouted.
"The time has almost come. If you see those intruders again, kill them," the cold emperor said, " I don't want anyone getting in my way."
"they must have been villagers," Sherry said, "They are the only other people on this Island."
"then destroy the village," the cold emperor shouted.
"Yes, sir."
"Grr"
"Understood."
"what," Lucy said in shock, "but the villagers haven't done anything."
"We have to stop them," Natsu said.
"It's a shame there has to be bloodshed," the cold emperor said.
"That voice," Gray said in pure shock. "It can't be."
"that's it," Natsu shouted. "You want to find the intruder? Here I am," Natsu shouted, breathing some fire.
"Natsu!" Lucy shouted.
"I want to help Lucy; want me to sing," Lyre asked, coming up behind her.
"No, I want you to go away," Lucy told her annoyedly.
"Aww, you're not fun," Lyre retorted before puffing away.
Sherry looked at the mark on Natsu's arm. "I don't recognize that symbol."
"It doesn't matter," the cold emperor shouted. "Kill them and the villagers."
"Say what?" Natsu shouted.
"Why you?" Gray shouted as he got and charged at the cold emperor. "Stop this crazy ceremony right now," Gray called as he created a wall of ice and launched it at the cold emperor, who made his ice and shot it back.
"he's an Ice wizard, too," Happy said in shock.
Ice flew everywhere when the two forms of ice clashed with the former wall and began to break apart.
"Lyon," Gray spat venom at the frontman, "how could you? Do you have any idea what you're doing?"
"Oh, Gray," the cold emperor known as Lyon spoke. "It's been a while, hasn't it," Lyon said.
"Why would you revive Deliroa," Gray asked. "You know the destruction it could cause."
"to think you were one of the wizards they sent to help these poor villagers," Lyon spoke coldly. "Did you come knowing you would find me, or is this a coincidence."
"A friend of yours, cold Emperor," Yuka asked.
"Do as you were ordered," Lyon shouted. "I shall handle this myself."
"Yes, sir." The trio then vanished, shocking Natsu Lucy and Happy
"wait' Natsu shouted as he attempted to give chase.
"Natsu, stop," Gray called, but it was too late as Lyon shot ice, which started to freeze him solid. "Happy, get Lucy out of here," Gray shouted.
"Aye, sir." Happy then sprouted his wings and grabbed Lucy with his tail.
"Wait," Lucy called as Happy picked her up and pulled her off. "We can't leave Natsu."
"We don't have a choice," Happy shouted, "he was hit with a type of Ice magic that froze the air around him; if we stayed, we would have been caught too."
"Who cares?" Lucy shouted. "We need to help him."
"I know, but" tears formed on Happy's face as he continued forward, "who would save the villagers if we all got caught?" HAppy shouted.
Lucy looked at him, shocked. "Oh, Happy, I'm sorry," Lucy said as she looked down. "Come on, chin up, little guy. No one can keep our Salamander down."
"Aye"
Lyon watched as Lucy escaped, chuckling as he faced Gray. " You bought time for the Girl and the cat to escape," he said, smiling. "How chilis, but they won't stop my minions."
Nasu stood up now in a large block of ice. "Don't underestimate my partner, Buster; come on, Gray, let-" Natsu was interrupted when Gray kicked Natsu off the cliff, causing him to roll down the mountain.
"I see you as reckless as ever," Lyon said. "Wasn't that your ally?"
"You and I both know that one spell could detonate that ice and him with it," Gray told him.
"So, you sent him out of the range of magic, very clever," Lyon said.
"Will drop the high and mighty act," Gray shouted. "We're not Ur students anymore."
"I know," Lyon said, removing his helmet and revealing his silver hair and stone-cold eyes, "Sadly, Master Ur is no longer of this world."
"Exactly, so why would you try to resurrect Deliroa," Gray said. "Ur gave her life to stop that thing' why are you trying to tarnish our master's legacy."
"Don't delude yourself?" Lyon told him, "We both know you 're the one who killed Ur," Lyon spoke, which shocked Gray, "Yet you have no guilt."
Deep in the Forest, Natsu lay on the ground, still trapped in the ice cube. He blasted his way up and shook his head "damn it, Gray," he said as he looked at the mountain. He then tried to melt the ice to prevent "damn it, this is some tough ice to crack; looks like I'll have to hoof it to the village."
Meanwhile, on the ocean, a pirate ship is seen sailing over the seas.
"UM, why are you going to Galuna Island," a man said. He was the ship's captain and was afraid in his voice.
"that's for me to know; just steer," an agent called out, which was revealed to be Erza, who could see the Island in the distance.
The captain let a sigh. 'Man, she sure is pretty," he said as he continued towards the Island.
[Jaaku no Tsuchioto Ost]
The men in robes all saw as Lyon and Gray faced each other. "Enough games," Lyon said. "You're the one who killed Ur, admit it," he stated with venom. "I'm surprised you even dare to speak her name," He fired Ice at Gray, knocking him into a wall.
Gray struggled to stand as Lyon dropped his helmet. "It's like old times, except I'm much stronger than I was back then" {"Ice make: snow eagle"} A group of eagles formed and launched themselves at Gray.
{"Ice make: shield"} Gray shouted, but Lyons eagle went around it and forced Gray back.
"I see," Lyon said, smirking. "You must have forgotten that your ice-make magic allows you to create inanimate objects while mine is more active."
Gray Jumped above Lyon and charged down {"Ice make: Hammer"}
Lyon put up his finger {"Ice make: snow ape"}
a giant ape appeared, broke Gray's Ice hammer, and forced him to the ground. "That's pathetic; you still use your hand when casting your Ice spells."
"yeah, 'cause that's how Ur taught us," Gray told him. "One-handed casting is sloppy and unbalanced.
"Well, I'm the exception to that rule," Lyon explained. "I surpassed Ur's training long ago," Lyon told Gray.
"Shut your mouth," Gray spat at Lyon, who laughed.
"Regardless, ever since we were children, you've never been able to land a single hit on me," Lyon bragged.
"Well, I'm alt stronger than I was back then," Gray shouted as he clasped his hands together {"Ice make: Geyser"}A giant tower of ice shot at Lyon and covered him whole.
Gray stood up, trying to catch in, only to see his magic broken by Lyon, who could only smirk. "Nothing has changed," Lyon said. " I'm still the superior student and stronger than you," Lyon said, bragging. "I was able to master single-handed Ice magic; while you still have to use two hands, it's just like the old days," Lyon said.
"even though we choose different paths, we remain frozen in time."
Lyon raised his hand and Launched a giant ice dragon at Gray, which knocked him out. "That's why I'm resurrecting Deliroa, to prove I'm more than Ur's star pupil."
Gray landed on the ground with a thud as Lyon began to walk away. "As a child, I only dreamt of one thing, surpassing her," Lyon said as he faced Gray again, "but you ruined that for me; after she died, I thought there was no way to reach my lifelong dream, but then I one day I figured I cod still reach it," Lyon said a smile creeping on his face "If I could defeat Deliroa a demon so powerful no even Ur could vanquish it, I would have surpassed her power y dream will finally come true."
"Are you kidding me?" Gray shouted. "That demon destroyed everything we cared about, and you want to bring it back just to prove how strong you are," Gray called. "That's insane."
Lyons widened in shock after hearing this. "I can't do this," Lyon shouted as he started to barrage Gray with attacks. " I believe that's what we said to you that fateful day," Lyon called as he continued to attack Gray, who had begun to cough up blood. "or have you forgotten that it's because you challenged Deliroa, Ur lost her life" Lyon shouted continuing to attack Gray " I can't even take you saying her name in my presence, begone."
Lyon attacked Gray one last time, causing him to fly away as Lucy, Happy, and Natsu made their way to the village.
