I don't own any of the characters except for oc.
~Anastasia's POV~
Natsu was panting from all the fighting.
"You're able to withstand quite a lot, Salamander." Aria said to him.
"I'm all fired up now, you bastard!" Natsu said with a smug grin.
"Careful..." I said with a worried look.
"Airspace: Sever!" Aria casts his magic at Natsu who took the hit and slide on the floor.
"Damn...!" Natsu murmured.
"There's always someone better, my young dragon." Aria said.
"How about this, then?! Fire Dragon Roar!" Natsu said as he cast his magic at Aria then he vanished just as the spell was thrown at him.
"He disappeared!" Happy said in shock and fear for Natsu.
"Wh-Where is he?!" Natsu looked around the room.
"This is the end, Salamander. I shall give you the same suffering as Makarov." Aria said, as reappearing behind Natsu, "Airspace: Ruin!"
As the spell was used on Natsu who cried in pain. "So sad...! Inside this airspace, all wizards
are completely drained of their magic!"
"I-I'm losing... my strength...!" Natsu said in pain.
"Natsu!" Happy cried out his name.
"Damn it...!"
I saw Erza who was right on time, she and I kicked Aria from Natsu as Aria disappeared.
"Erza!" Happy said in joy.
"Er-chan, are you ok to moving around in your condition?!" I asked her, as she glared at Aria, Natsu and Happy hid behind me from her glare.
"Erza's mad!"
"So you did this to our master?" Erza asked him with anger tone.
"Erza Scarlet, huh? How sad. Not only will I have the Salamander's head, Celestial Queen's, but Titania's as well..." Aria said in confidence about his victory, I rolled my eyes at his confidence, like he will win against Erza.
"So you're the bastard who laid hands on him. He's like a father to us!" Erza said.
"Erza..." Natsu said, looking at her in shock.
Aria chuckled, "Since I get to actually face Erza... Then I suppose I have no choice but to fight seriously!" Aria removed his blindfold to show us his eyes.
"Come, Titania..." Aria said as wind surrounded him, "I'm casting Zero, the airspace of death...This airspace consumes the life of everything inside it!" As it's surrounded, him and Erza.
The wind blows all round us as we block the wind currents from our eyes.
"This is bad!" Happy said, holding on to Natsu's scarf.
"A spell that consumes life, you say? How? How are you people able to take others' lives so easily?! You villain!" Erza said, pointing her sword at him.
"Now, let's have some fun..." Aria said excitedly.
"Erza!" I yelled out her name. As she rushed towards Aria with sword in hand.
"Can you withstand this airspace?" Aria said as he cast his spell, and the wind currents blowed more, then Erza started to cut through the wind.
"Impossible! You've cut through my airspace?!" Aria said, shocked.
Erza requiped her armor with her heaven wheel armor, "Heaven's Wheel!" Erza attacked Aria with her swords at him, "Blumenblatt!" That attack did a lot of damage on Aria.
"She beat him with one hit!" Happy said in shock and fear.
"Erza's dangerous, that's for sure!" Natsu said in fear at Erza's victory.
"Er-chan is so cool, huh." I said with praise.
"The likes of you should never have been able to beat the master. Your days of glory will be wiped out, starting now." Erza said to Aria.
"T-The sadness..." Aria mumbled.
The entire building was shaking and Natsu, Happy and I were tumbling for balance. Then Erza tumbled and unrequiped her armor and fell over but I caught her on time.
"Er-chan! You are okay!" I said to her, then a ding-dong sound was heard.
"Attention all you from Fairy Tail. Please listen carefully to this voice." Jóse said through the speakers.
"What's this?" Natsu asked.
"It's Master Jose!" Happy replied.
Lucy's screams were heard from the speakers. I gritted my teeth in anger. "They got Lucy!"
"We have captured Lucy. So, we have accomplished one of our objectives. Thus we have one final goal that remains to be fulfilled. Wiping you off the face of this earth! You worthless brats!?" Jose said through the speakers.
"Damn him!" Natsu said in anger. I had Erza in my arms in anger, softly tightening my grip.
"Damn it! Lucy's got captured..." I said in anger then, Erza said, "Natsu... Stacey..."
"Er-chan! Are you okay?" I asked her.
"Unleash...your powers!" Erza said to us, "You two have...power...sleeping within you... Believe in yourself... Break through... And call it forth! Now is the time...to protect Lucy... Protect the guild!" As she looked at Natsu, "Go Natsu! You're the one who will surpass me!"
As Happy and I stared at him, I had a determination on Natsu. As he powered up as we stood up and Natsu run towards where Lucy was as Happy and I hurried after him.
Natsu and I come barging in the room where Lucy was as we kick and punch Gajeel. Who recovered from our attack. "I knew it. I noticed your smell!"
"Salamander and Celestial Queen!" Lucy said happily to see us. I grinned and had determination.
"Gajeel!?" Natsu yelled his name in anger.
As Natsu and I stand in front of Lucy.
"It's so easy to lure you out, Salamander." Gajeel said.
"That's 'cause you keep playing dirty, Iron Dragon!" Natsu said to him.
"Guys!" Lucy said happily.
"Lucy, stand back, we will handle Gajeel!" I said to her.
"Gajeel!" One of the Phantom Lord members said to him as in warning him.
"Stay outta this!" Gajeel ordered them to back off.
"Bring it on!" Natsu said as Gajeel used his iron dragon club at Natsu who grabbed it and throw him across the room, as Gajeel who landed his feet on the wall. Natsu attacks him as Gajeel shields his attacks, causing a dust cloud around them. Gajeel emerged from the smoke, Natsu appears and punched Gajeel, who flew into another wall.
"Fire Dragon... Talon!" Natsu yelled as attacks Gajeel, who was able to shield himself from the attack.
I hurried over to Lucy, "Lucy! You okay?!"
"Happy! Stacey!" Lucy said as she was happy to see us, but look over to Natsu and Gajeel.
"Is something wrong?" Happy asked her as he look over as well.
"I've just never seen Natsu like that before..." Lucy said.
"Yeah, it's is a surprise huh." I said.
"Aye, me neither. But...this Natsu is strong!" Happy told her.
Gajeel crack his neck, "For being Fairy scum, you sure are cocky.."
"You're one to talk! You had no problem beating up Lucy...I'm gonna deform your face and smash you into iron sand!" Natsu said to him.
Gajeel chuckled, "Amusing. Like to see you try!"
"He is playing a very dangerous game at Natsu..." I said placing a hand on my face.
I joined in the fight, and yelled, "Sky Dragon's Claw!?" As the attack generated large winds at Gajeel who was thrown away from Natsu.
Gajeel gritted his teeth at my attack.
"I see you have a new addition, huh?" Natsu asked as Gajeel's arm was different.
"The Iron Dragon Sword! It cuts apart anything it touches! See how sharp it is for yourself, Salamander!" Gajeel said as his iron dragon sword was working like a chainsaw.
"Oh I'm so scared." Natsu said sarcastically.
"Wh-What is that?!" Lucy asked shock and scared.
"Iron Dragon Slayer magic...!"
"What's the matter?! Not gonna block me this time, huh?!" Gajeel says as he continues to attacks us but we dodged every attacks, "I thought this was nothin' to you?! Oh! You're actually pretty nimble!"
"Same goes for you." I said.
"We never settled our little fight the other day. Whadya say we finish it now, Salamander?!" Gajeel said to Natsu.
"I'm all fired up, scrap iron freak!" Natsu fired back.
Gajeel used his magic as his entire skin turned into Iron Dragon Scales.
"Now you're going down!" Gajeel yells.
"His body...!"
"Dragon scales!"
"Iron Dragon...Hard Fist!" Gajeel yelled as he was going to attack Natsu but I jumped right in between them and took the attack. That caused me and Natsu to be thrown into a wall.
"Stacey! Are you okay!" Natsu asked me in panic. I groaned in pain while holding my arm.
"I'm ok, but that really hurts." I mumbled.
Gajeel chuckled, "Heard you two hitting that wall, that was a nice sound."
"He dropped Stacy and Natsu just with one hit...!" Lucy said shocked.
"Those scales are made of steel!" Happy explained.
Gajeel proceeded to attack Natsu then did an air strike on him, while Natsu dodged it. And it caused a wind pressure.
"You gotta be kidding me! Wind pressure from a kick?!" Lucy yelled.
"His steel scales have doubled the strength of his attacks!" Happy said. Natsu punched Gajeel.
"My steel scales nullify all attacks." Gajeel said with a smug smile. Natsu yelled in pain while holding his hand.
"No way! It increased his defense too?!"
"Natsu!" I said, and while healing my wounds. Natsu was rolling around the floor holding his hand. "Damn! Doesn't hurt! Doesn't hurt one bit!"
"That's what he says."
"Aye..."
"Shut yer trap! Quit trying to hang on to your pride!" Gajeel said as head-bunk Natsu to the ground, then attacked him but Natsu dodges.
"Hardheaded bastard! This'll blow you away! Fire Dragon..." Natsu yelled.
"Iron Dragon..."
"Huh?!"
"He can use his breath too!"
"...Roar!"
"...Roar!"
This attack clashes into one another causing a big explosion, and causes a hole.
"Looks like the differences between our dragon qualities have become clear, Salamander..." Gajeel said, "Not even breath that can burn a person to cinders can leave a mark against steel. But, my iron blade breath can rip your body into shreds."
"Natsu..." I said with a worried look.
"He's strong...!"
"Not a single mark, huh? You daydreaming or something?" Natsu said with a smirk on his face.
A crack appeared on Gajeel's scales.
"My fire is no ordinary fire. Fire Dragon fire destroys everything!" Natsu said taking off his vest, "You're gonna shatter into pieces if you don't fight for real, Black Steel Gajeel!
"Let's go!" Gajeel said as his shirt was ripped off.
"That's how Dragon Slayers are!" Happy said.
"I-Incredible..." Lucy said
"And they are both half-naked." I said walking over to her and Happy.
"Bring it on, Black Steel Gajeel! There's no need for two dragons in these skies." Natsu said.
"I'll send you crashing down, Salamander Natsu!" Gajeel yelled back.
"Natsu...!" I said worried for him.
Natsu and Gajeel throw punches at each other and it causes a huge explosion. As they flew in the air as they continued punching blows at each other and damaging a structure in front of them causing it break and they fall down and the structure fall down and we dodged it.
"We're caught in it too!" Lucy said.
"Is that kid, beating Gajeel?"
"No, look! The Salamander is out of breath too!"
"Huh?!" Natsu said as Gajeel was eating metal, "Hey! That's not fair! You get to eat!"
"Shut up."
"H-He does eat iron after all!" Lucy said in shock.
"I wonder if it's any good..." Happy commented.
"Well, yeah, he is an iron dragon slayer, he is going to eat iron or metal." I said with disbelief expression.
"Now that I've eaten, now, I have a fire in my belly!" Gajeel said as he steals Natsu's catchphrase.
"Don't copy me!" Natsu yelled at him. Gajeel powered up his magic.
"H-How...?! He's suddenly full of energy again!" Lucy questioned.
"Dragon Slayers can recover their strength and power up by eating stuff of their own attribute!" I answered.
"Then why can't Natsu just eat fire? Oh...!" Lucy trailed off.
"That's right. Natsu can't eat his own magic fire." Happy added.
"Oh, no... What do we do, then?!"
"Get ready to be mincemeat! Iron Dragon Spear...Demon Logs!" Gajeel yelled as he threw his attack at Natsu.
"Fire... Fire... I can't remember, do I have a fire celestial spirit?! Oh, right... I lost my keys..." Lucy said, "All I have on me is this Sagittarius key, I recently got. I haven't even made a contract yet, but... This is... This is our only chance now!"
"Uh...I can—-" I was cutting off by Lucy.
Natsu stood up from Gajeel's attacks.
"I am connected with the path to the celestial spirit world! Heed my call! Pass through the gate!
Open, Gate of the archer! Sagittarius!" Lucy yelled out as she summoned the spirit.
"Horse! Hello!" Sagittarius said as he saluted at Lucy.
"Th-That's how it is?!" Lucy said in shock, I just give a unamused look on my face for being ignored.
"A horse costume?!" Happy said.
"We can talk later! Can you shoot fire?!" Lucy ordered him.
"No. I am a master archer. Hello." Sagittarius trailed off as he saluted.
"O-ok..." Lucy said in defeat.
"What is he even saluting at?" Happy questioned.
"Lucy! Stacey! Get back! This is dangerous!" Natsu ordered us as we moved away.
"I'm so unbelievably unhelpful...!" Lucy said as she was disillusioned.
"Now, now. Think positive." I said encouraging her.
"Thus... hello." Sagittarius added.
"Here goes! Fire Dragon...Sword Horn!" Natsu yelled as he threw himself at Gajeel.
"Feelin' hungry and low on energy?" Gajeel said as he was unexpected by Natsu's attack and then, "Then... eat some iron!"
"Brutal...!"
"I guess Gajeel...is stronger after all..."
"I have no use for you anymore. Get out of my sight, scum!" Gajeel said.
"This can't be happening... No... This can't be real! Natsu can't lose...!" Lucy said in disbelief.
"Just look at what you guys were tryin' to protect!" Gajeel taunt at Natsu.
As I looked over to our guild hall as it was getting demolish, it was completely destroyed as the building crashed on the ground. Gajeel was laughing evilly.
Natsu stood up and walked slowly towards Gajeel.
"Oh Natsu..." I said with a worried look in my face.
"No more, Natsu... If I...If I just let them take me, then this will all..." Lucy was begging.
"Lucy...Natsu hasn't given up yet...!" I said to her.
"Your guild's been destroyed. You lose." Gajeel mocked him, as Natsu tried to throw a punch but was punch by Gajeel as he threw at an engine wall.
"Oh, no..I can't let this go on...!" Lucy begged him.
"Just stay down, Salamander. I'm not fond of the phrase "holding back", you see... Don't blame me for whatever happens..." Gajeel said to him as he slowly towards him.
"He used up too much of his magic destroying the Jupiter and fighting the Element 4... Natsu wouldn't lose if only he had fire to eat!" I said, "But I believe in him... that he can do this..."
"There you have it. What a shame, too." Gajeel said as he hold on Natsu's scarf. "So long..."
"I see. It seems there was a bit of a misunderstanding, hello." Sagittarius said as he hold his bow with an arrow, "You asked if I can shoot fire, thus I answered "no." However, it seems shooting fire is not the key here...but fire itself, correct, hello?"
"Yeah, that can work for Natsu!" I chimed in.
"This is the end, Salamander!" Gajeel said as he was about to finish Natsu, then Sagittarius fired his arrow engine and it making an explosion.
"You made fire by blowing up the machinery!" Lucy said in shock.
"Depending on how it is shot, it is possible to make an arrow pierce or destroy an object, hello." Sagittarius explained.
"That's man horse thing, is getting in my way." Gajeel said in anger.
"Wow! You're a real archery master, Sagittarius!" Lucy praised him.
"Yes, hello."
"Just what are you saluting to?" Happy questioned him.
Natsu inhaled the fire, "Now that's a meal...Thanks, Lucy..."
Lucy gives Natsu a thumb up.
"Don't get cocky just 'cause you ate some fire!" Gajeel said as he run towards Natsu who responded by punching him.
"All right! Now he's at full power!" I said in excitement.
"This is bad!"
"Levy... Jet... Droy... Gramps... Lucy... Stacey..My friends... And Fairy Tail..."
"Iron Dragon Roar!" Gajeel yelled his attack, then Natsu used his hands to block the attack.
"He deflected my breath with just his bare hands!" Gajeel said in shock.
"Just how much harm do you have to cause until you guys are satisfied?!" Natsu said, "But it ends now!"
"Impossible... I can't lose to the likes of him... I can't lose to this scum!" Gajeel yelled.
"I'm gonna pay you back for everything you've done! You made a big mistake messing with Fairy Tail!" Natsu declared at him.
"To be continued" I said holding a sign.
"What! We are ending right now!" Lucy said in shock.
