Chapter 8: Reunion


Wendy was thrown against the ground at the town of Crocus as Leviatha glared at her, Carla on the ground in front of the resentful girl. Before the Exceed could crawl away, Leviatha stomped her foot on the talking cat causing her to scream in pain.

Wendy: No Carla! Sheeree, stop! Please!

Leviatha: That's not my name! I told you, my name is Leviatha!

Wendy: Please... why are you doing this?! (tears were about to fall from her eyes) We were part of Cait Shelter together! We were friends!

Leviatha: No, we are not friends! We never were friends! (saw the tears flowing down Wendy's face, mocking) Aw is the little Dragon Slayer gonna cry? You'll be shedding more than tears when I'm done with you! Sky Dragon Roar!

She shot another breath attack directly at Wendy who could only scream with closed eyes at it came close toward her.

???: Water Nebula!

A powerful spirally stream of water had collide with Leviatha's breath attack. The resulting collision created a large splash of water that sprayed in all directions.

Leviatha: What?!

Wendy opened her eyes slowly to look and see Juvia who stood in front of her. 

Wendy: Juvia...

Juvia: Are you alright?

Wendy: Yeah... I will be. Thank you.

Leviatha: (glares) Damn you. Protecting her like that.

The Devil Hand wizard started sensing a strong magic power coming down at her from above. She turned in that direction to see Sherria appearing in the sky and already unleashing an attack.

Sherria: Sky God Boreas!

Bringing her arms together to collide two opposing black whirlwinds, a spiraling cyclone of black wind was blasted straight at Leviatha who quickly jump to avoid it. 

Sherria: Wendy! 

Wendy: Sherria...

Juvia: Who are you? Why are you with Devil Hand?

Leviatha: My name is Leviatha, and I'm here to see Wendy Marvell suffer!

Sherria: Why? What did she ever do to you?

Leviatha: That's none of your business.

???: It is when it comes to our guild mates and friends are in danger. 

She turned to see Gray and Lyon approaching and stand beside their guild mates. 

Juvia: Gray!

Sherria: Lyon!

Lyon: What happened to you Gray? You're looking rather rough.

Gray: I was just taking care of unfinished business; you know how it is.

Leviatha: Tch. More annoying pests. 

Leviatha placed a hand on her palm as an icy-mist formed right before she cast a spell.

Leviatha: Ice-Make Lance!

This caught Gray and Lyon by completely surprise, Gray quickly formed an ice-shield to block the ice-projectiles shot his way, but his shocked look did not fade.

Gray's thoughts: What the hell?! That's my spell! How did she know that?!

Juvia: She can used Ice magic like Gray and Lyon?! 

???: Hey, Leviatha. 

Adramalech went to her left.

Adramalech: What's the hold up? I thought would defeat your pray already.

Leviatha: Shut up, Adramalech. Her friends got in the way, if you wanna help you better get in too. 

Adramalech: Alright then. (his fist engulfed in flames) Besides, I wanted to fight some strong wizards anyway. 

(Elsewhere)

At the castle, Hisui and Darton were watching the whole thing through lacrima cameras. 

Darton: It appears things did not go as the future traveller told you.

Hisui: No, it is not. They didn't tell me that Devil Hand would be involved, perhaps it hasn't happened in their prediction. 

Darton: We should call of the games now and evacuate the civilians.  

Hisui: No, there's still. We can use the Eclipse 2-

Suddenly, the castle shook as if an earthquake had erupted. 

Darton: What's happening?!

One of the royal soldiers had barged into the door.

Soldier: Princess! The Eclipse Gate has been destroyed!

Hisui: (shocked) What?!

Meanwhile, Y/N was seen infront of the Eclipse Gate which was destroyed by the Master of Devil Hand. 

Y/N: Finally, the Eclipse Gate is no more. Now no one would send the dragons from the past to the present. Wouldn't you agree, Rouge Cheney? 

He turned his head to the Future Rouge who was dead on the ground in a puddle of his own blood. 

Y/N: He did put bit a effort for a fight, but even so, he was still no match for me.

Ijuna: (coms) Master, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse have arrived. 

Y/N: Excellent, I'll bring them here with Wormhole. 

With the extend of his hand, Y/N creates a wave-like portal as four figures have came through the portal. 

One of them was a young man with dark purple hair and black eyes. He wears a black Hoodie with a black skintight sleeveless shirt underneath the hoodie, dark pants with purple neon lines and kneepads on them, black steeltoed boots, and black fingerless gloves.

The second was a young woman with scarlet hair and black eyes alongside a big bust. He wears a black open jacket with a skintight bodysuit underneath, black Skirt that goes down to her knees, black stockings, and black 2-inch heel boots.

The third was another woman with stark white hair and black eyes with the same big bust as the scarlet haired woman. She also has an eye scar on her right eye, and has a red crystal earring on her left ear. Her outfit is a black and white female skintight leotard bodysuit, black Jeans, blue heeled boots, and wearing a white hoodie.  

The last one was young woman with jade green hair, black eyes, same big bust as the other girls, and poison markings on her skin. She wears a black turtleneck sweater, blue knee-length skirt, black stockings, and wearing black combat boots with belt buckles on them.

Y/N: Ronin, Rin, Rio, Rayna. 

Ronin: Hey Y/N, sorry we were late.

Rin: (notices the body of Future Rouge) I see you've already killed one of the time travellers. 

Rio: And he was already destroyed the Eclipse Gate.

Y/N: Indeed. Now there's only the matter of finding the other time traveller.

Rayna: What about Fairy Tail?

Y/N: Don't worry, there is a chance they will accept my offer. Ijuna, contact the Ten Deadly Sins.

Ijuna: (coms) As you wish, Master Ziggy. 

Y/N unleashes his Wormhole to create a portal which not only transported the scout squad back to the Edens One, but also caught Team Fairy Tail along with Cana, Levy, Elfman, Lisanna, and the remaining team members of Sabertooth, Lamia Scale, and Mermaid Heel in different portals.

Leviatha: (coms) Hey, what's the big idea stealing my prey?!

Lucifer: (coms) Yes, that was rude. I was about to enjoy my fight with Erza and Kagura.

Y/N: I apologize, but I need the Fairy Tail guild alive if they were to accept my offer. Meanwhile, I need some of you to deal with the remaining members of Sabertooth, Lamia Scale, and Mermaid Heel.  

Adramalech: (coms) You can count on me boss!

Satan: (coms) I wanna fight some powerful wizards too!

Asmodeua: (coms) Oh, sounds fun. 

Belphegor: (coms) If it helps get rid of my boredom, I'll play.

Samael: (coms) As you wish, Master. 

Leviatha: (coms) Ugh, fine. But you own me Wendy the next time.  

Y/N: The rest of you are to return to the Edens One and wait for follow orders. 

Iblis: (coms) Of course, Lord Ziggy.

Mammon: (coms) You got it.

Lucifer: (coms) Very well, I guess I'll later then. 

(with Iblis' team) 

Iblis: Beelzebub, that's enough. The Master would like to see them. 

Beelzebub did a claw slash at Natsu who dodged before the Wendigo heard Iblis' voice and closed its eyes. Natsu looked confused when a large amount of grey steam had flown off the Wendigo's body. It shrank and condensed till all the leaves, twigs, and bones fell off to reveal the child-form of Beelzebub.

Beelzebub: I understand. 

Mammon releases Lucy from the rope. 

Mammon: Alright, let's get going.

Natsu: You're running away?!

Suddenly, a big wave-like portal opened as Wendy, Carla, Gray, Juvia, Erza, Gajeel, Levy, Cana, Lisanna, Laxus, and Elfman fell through the portal. 

Happy: It's Wendy and Carla!

Panther Lily: And the others. But how did they get here? 

Gray: The hell just happened? 

Levy: Did we all get transported here? 

Gajeel: Not all of us. 

Iblis: Our Master is eager to see you all for quite some time. 

Erza: Master?

Just then, something burst through the floor as Y/N along with the Four Horsemen have bursted through the floor before they landed infront of their comrades. 

Rin: We'll handle things from here. You have your orders.

Mammon Whatever you say. 

Iblis, Mammon, and Beelzebub make their exit, leaving their Master and the Horsemen alone with the Fairy Tail wizards. 

Laxus: So, you're this Dark Guild's Master who killed my deadbeat dad. Nice mask. Wanna tell us who you really are?

Y/N: ...

Natsu: Hey! He just asked you a question, pal! (charges at Y/N)

Erza: Wait, Natsu!

Natsu: Fire Dragon Iron Fist!

Natsu's flaming fist made contact with Y/N's masked which caused it to shattered, revealing his face to his fellow former guild mates.

Y/N: Seven years has passed and you're still a hot-tempered kid.

You haven't changed, Natsu.

Natsu:

Lucy:

Gray:

Erza:

Wendy: 

Gajeel:

Juvia: 

Levy: 

Elfman:

Mira and Lisanna: 

Cana:

Laxus: 

Lucy: (shocked, disbelief) Y-Y/N?

Meanwhile, back at the town of Crocus, another wave-like portal appeared as Sting, Rouge, Yukino, Orga, Lyon, Sherria, Jura, Kagura, and Milliana fell through it. 

Sting: The hell just happened?

Rogue: Did we get transported?

Yukino: Sting? Rouge?

Sting: Yukino? 

Rouge: What are you doing here?

???: Our Master brought her here as well since she is a wizard.

Everyone looked and saw Samael floating in the air with his wings. 

Lyon: This member has wings?

Milliana: (scared) He's some sort of bat person! 

Kagura: It appears he is our opponent as for now.

Orga: If you think you can take us all by yourself, you've got a death wish, pal.

Samael: Do you take me for a fool? I hold no illusion that I could best a Wizard Saint, two Dragon and God Slayers, a Celestial Wizard, and two other female wizards by myself.

???: That's why he brought us!  

The group turned to a building in surprise to see Satan, Adramalech, Leviatha, Asmodeua, and Belphegor all looking down upon them.

Satan: (punched his hand into his palm) So, who's ready to get hurt? (cracks his knuckles) 

Jura: It seems he's brought company for us to take on.

(with Y/N's group)

Y/N: I am Y/N Granbell, also known as Ziggy, the Demon King. Master of the Dark Guild Devil Hand. It is good to see you again, Fairy Tail. 

Gray: What...?! You're Y/N?!

Wendy: But he was killed by Acnologia when we were on Tenrou Island, wasn't he? 

Natsu took a few whiffs to try and confirm it.

Natsu: His scent... He smells like Y/N, but different...

Y/N: It has been seven years since we last met, and anything can change within that time, including one's scent. But I assure you, it is me.

Juvia's thought: (blush) Oh my... my beloved and cute prince has grown into a handsome young man! 

Lucy: You're really Y/N?

Future Lucy: I didn't think he was still alive either. 

Rin: That girl...

Ronin: Yes, that's the other traveler had also used the Eclipse to travel back in time. 

Mira's thoughts: (looks at Y/N) Hold on... this doesn't feel right... something feels off about him.

Happy: Why are you here? 

Y/N: I can only assume that you're aware of the Eclipse Gate now. But you don't have to worry, I've already destroyed the gate and killed the other time traveler. 

Levy: (surprised) You did?

Gajeel: The hell is this all about declaring war on the Magic Council? 

Mira: Wait, what?

Elfman: Yeah, apparently he declared on the Magic Council and any other guild has been on their leash. 

Lisanna: And he proved it by killing the Master's son, Ivan. 

Natsu: (to Y/N) Wait, so this whole damn thing was your idea?! You're the one who made this Devil Hand guild to destroy the world?!

Y/N: I'm not trying to destroy the world, Natsu. On the contrary... I'm trying to save it.

That caught all their attention.

Wendy: Save it...?

Gray: Oh, like hell we're gonna believe that! How is forming a Dark Guild and destroying the Council going to save the world?!

Y/N: Allow me to explain it to you all then, so that you may understand. Seven years ago, I did died back on Tenrou back Acnologia before he tried to destroy you. But somehow, someone brought me back to life as a cyborg. A half human and machine that can wield magic power. 

Erza: So, you're not really human anymore.

Y/N: As of right now, no. By the time I've awoken I believed that Fairy Tail strongest wizards, including you all, died by the same dragon. I felt hopeless, heartbroken, and weak at the moment, not being strong enough to save you. It was that moment I met a machine who would become my mentor, Xenolith. 

Cana: Xenolith? 

Y/N: The master of the Magimech Arts and the original founder of my magic, Gravity Demon Slayer Magic. I've trained and mastered every technique he has known for years, hoping I would become strong enough to destroy Acnologia. However, I've come to a conclusion. 

Laxus: And what's that?

Y/N: That both Zeref, the Magic Council and the Balam Alliance are responsible for awakening that monster. Do you find it odd why both of our enemies had appeared on the same island? Somehow, it was meant to happen. Zeref would be isolated on Tenrou Island so that no would die by his curse, the Magic Council will send a spy acting as a member of Fairy Tail, and Grimoire Heart will invade and kill us all. 

Gajeel: And you're saying that's what draw that Acnologia's attention to Tenrou?

Y/N: Yes. The Magic Council believes they are balancing the magic world, but that was a lie. They've made rules over their own arrogance, everything we've done was nothing but slavery. When we destroy something, they made us pay for property damage for them. When we fight an enemy, they make an excuse and blame us for it. It's like they're making us the villains, when in reality, they are the evil ones. They're no better than the Balam Alliance, because like any Dark Guild, they wouldn't care if innocent people would have to die. 

Juvia: Y/N...

Y/N: For you see, that's why I rebelled the Magic Council and created Devil Hand. I gathered not only demons, warriors, and assassins, but also wizards who are powerful enough to rival Fairy Tail's elite. First, I will destroy the Magic Council and Tataros. Once they are eliminated, I will hunt down both Zeref and Acnologia and sever the heads of the Black Wizard and the Dragon King!

Gray: Wow. You really thought of everything, haven't you?

Laxus: Let us assume that this plan of yours is a success. Acnologia, Zeref, the Council, and the Balam Alliance all meet their ends. You may indeed slay the greatest threats we currently face, but in doing so you will create a substantial power vacuum. I can think of at least a dozen powerful wizards will try to take advantage of that and gain more power for themselves. Ishgar will be engulfed in a multi-sided civil war. 

Y/N: Yes, I'm aware of that. Which is why I intended to become Ishgar's ruler.

Elfman: Oh, so you planning to become an egocentric, power-hungry, demon lord or something. That's so unmanly. 

Y/N: This has nothing to do with ego, or a desire for power, it's a necessity. If I am the one to fill it, I can quell the chaos.

Cana: Really? The Master of a Dark Guild is gonna be the noble king of the Ishgar?

Y/N: Most wizards respects strength above all else. As the one who will end the life of Zeref and Acnologia, that will be more than enough to gain the respect and obedience of most wizards. And yes, I am aware that it won't apply to every one as there will be others to try and usurp me, but I will deal with them when the time comes.

Carla: And why are you telling us all of this? Why reveal your plan now to us?

Y/N: Because I want your guild to join me.

Out of all the answers they would have guessed or expected from them, that was the one that none of them would have expected.

Natsu: Say what...?

Wendy: You want us to help you...?

Lisanna: That's gotta be the craziest thing I ever heard!

Mira: Why make this offer to us?

Levy: Aren't you already strong as you are?

Rayna: Indeed he is. He proved that by defeat your master, Makarov Dreyar. 

Everyone in the guild widen their eyes in shock.

Laxus' thoughts: (surprised) No way, he defeated Gramps? 

Ronin: And the reason why Y/N chose your guild was believes you're the only guild who has a resentment to the Magic Council. 

Rin: Though the same couldn't be said for the other wizards. 

Y/N: Yukino aside, most of Sabertooth is filled with idiotic fools who believe their power is superior above all else and have become stagnant. Others have uncontrollable ambitions that would only make matters even more complicated. Fairy Tail, on the other hand, continues to grow stronger with each battle, be it victory or defeat. Your guild is the one I respect above all others. 

Y/N walked towards his former guild mates before he stops a few meters away from them.

Y/N: Lucy, Natsu, all of you... you all understand better than anyone the threats we face and the danger they pose to us all. Acnologia wiped out the dragon race... Zeref created not only the Demons from his books, but also the Tower of Heaven and the Eclipse. They, the Dark Guilds, the  Magic Council, those people have done everything they could to end our lives as well, destroying our childhood and everything we had growing up, in the process! And it's not just us... how many more lives were ended or ruined by them?! Now we have a chance to seek justice for all their crimes, a chance to claim revenge for what they did to us. Help me, and I know we can do this. We'll avenge our families, you would have an ally with Devil Hand and Earthland will hail Fairy Tail as its greatest and legendary heroes. Together, we can ensure that what happened to us, never happens to anyone else again! (offered his hand to them) This... is the only way.

Everyone stared at Y/N's hand in worry and concerned. Honestly, most of would love to defeat Zeref and Acnologia as well as save the world from them. But the way Y/N was going on about it... even if some of his arguments did make sense... it was all insane.

Lucy: No. It's not.

Lucy went stepping forward to face Y/N with a pleading expression.

Lucy: Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I can be with you for the past seven years since we were separated. And I'm sure everyone else would agree. But, this idea of yours is both crazy and dangerous. We could make things worse than they already are! How about instead of doing something so insane, we could have you disbanded Devil Hand and you and your guild members to come join Fairy Tail... And plan another way to stop Acnologia and Zeref. Y/N, there is still time to stop all of this! We'll figure something out! And... at the end of it all... we can be a family again. All of us.

The Ferrer siblings looked at each other, unsure about her idea before they looked at their master. But despite her pleas, Y/N looked away slightly before giving his response. 

Y/N: For the sake of our fathers and mothers, I will ask you one last time. Join me, or simply step aside. Your words may carry love and emotion, but that's not enough to stop our enemies. There is a plan, and I have to see it through. Either stand by my side... or don't. Your choice.

Lucy's eyes filled with heartbreak as she heard that, with even tears at the brims. Erza then walked towards Y/N before she gave him a slap across his face, surprising him and the Four Horsemen. 

Erza: You know something, Y/N? I'm really disappointed in you. Not the whole Dark Guild thing, No. What I'm most disappointed in, is that even though you respect us... you forgot one detail about Fairy Tail. We don't submit or stand aside to anyone. Join you or stay out of your way? We'll do none of that, right friends?

Natsu: Got that right!

Happy: Aye sir!

Wendy: I'm with you, Erza!

Carla: As am I!

Gray: Me too!

Levy: Same here. 

Gajeel: You got me.

Laxus: I got your back, too.

Panter Lily: I will fight beside you, even against him.

Cana: You even need to ask?

Lisanna: We're right with you, Erza.

Elfman: Real men would never join forces with a Dark Guild!

Mira: Fairy Tail stands together!

Juvia: I promise to do everything in my power to help you, my darling Y/N! If even it means against your ideas!

Future Lucy put a hand over her mouth as she couldn't stop herself from crying. While she was heartbroken to realize that her oldest cousin was responsible for the dragons being unleashed, and the hell that she had endured... she was also crying in joy at seeing Fairy Tail stand together like this. It felt like she was a part of it all again. That happiness overshadowed any heartbreak or despair she felt at that moment.

Even the present Lucy stood her ground as she wiped the tears from her eyes and looked defiantly to Y/N.

Lucy: Looks like you have your answer, Y/N.

Y/N gave a sigh as he closed his eyes.

Y/N: It seems you have refused my offer, how unfortunate. Then you left me with no other choice.  (looks at the Four Horsemen) Subdue them. But do not kill them. 

Ferrer siblings: Understood. 

Immediately, the shadow underneath Ronin expanded quickly and rapidly, multiple walls of shadows emerged to cut off and isolate nearly every individual in Fairy Tail while a force of darkness was pushed against Lucy to knock her back toward Levy.

Natsu: Lucy!

Gajeel: Levy!

As everyone in the group tried to use whatever magic or weapons they could to beat back the shadows, the shadows around Lucy and Levy took the form of elongated hands that tried to reach out towards them.

Time seemed to slow to a crawl as the Celestial Wizard and the Sold Script Wizard seem helpless to stop what was coming toward them, even as their friends fought back and cleared away the surrounding shadows. But as they did... they could only watch as Future Lucy had pushed her present self and Levy out of the way right as the shadow-hands reached down...

And sliced and pierced all through her body.

It was a horror show as everyone gasped with shaky eyes, watching as Future Lucy fell to the ground into a forming puddle of her own blood. Natsu, Gray, Erza, Wendy, Lisanna, Cana, Mira, Elfman, Gajeel, Levy, Happy, Carla, Lily, Laxus, Juvia, and especially Lucy and Levy...  to say they were shocked and horrified would have been a gross understatement.

The shadows vanished as both Y/N and the Horsemen were caught off guard by this action.

Lucy: Oh no! Are you okay?!

Happy: No!

Happy ran towards her, as did everyone else.

Lisanna: Lucy!

Natsu's body shook along with his eyes, his breath stuttering.

Ronin: What...? How could she have been injured so? That was meant to capture, not kill!

As everyone in Fairy Tail gathered around her, Y/N noticed the condition Future Lucy's body was in, notably all the cracks around her skin that only seemed to grow since being struck, like her body was made from a brittle stone.

Y/N: I see... she didn't have all the Zodiac Keys with her when she used her Eclipse Gate to come here. She must have used her own life force as a substitute, putting her at death's door.

Juvia: Lucy!

Lucy: (held her future self) Just hang on!

Levy: Why did you do that? Why did you let yourself be harmed? Why didn't you defend yourself?!

Future Lucy: You're part of my past... I had to do it... I couldn't let you be hurt or it would affect me... but then again... I already signed my own death warrant... using the Gate the way I did... but that didn't mean your life had to be cut short too...

She coughed again, the cracks spreading further along her body and up her face, her skin becoming more-and-more brittle, even the blood underneath her was quickly drying up.

Lucy: No! Don't talk like that! You're going to make it! We won't let you die!

Seeing this caused Wendy to cover her mouth as her body shook as well, prompting Carla to come up and wrap her arm around Wendy's leg and provide some comfort.

Future Lucy: Don't cry... it's okay... I thought that I'd never have the chance to see my family again... but I did... I even fought alongside you one last time... and that's enough... to make up for the hell that I've been through. (looks at Levy) Levy... I was so glad to have met you again... even though you died before Natsu in the future...

Levy covered her mouth as she cried.

Future Lucy: Cana... I don't care if you never officially made it... as far as I'm concerned... you're already S-Class... one of the best in Fairy Tail... your dad would be so proud...

The card-magic wielder clenched her fist as tears streamed down her eyes.

Future Lucy: Gajeel... Juvia... I'm glad you two were having a better life now... then you had before you joined Fairy Tail...

Gajeel clenched his fist and teeth in frustration while Juvia had tears over her eyes. 

Future Lucy: Lily... we may not have been close... but I can tell that you're a noble warrior with a good heart... keep up the good work.

With a sad smile and a single tear on his eye, Lily nodded. 

Lily: Count on it.

Future Lucy: Laxus... your grandfather must proud of... how much grown... despite being cocky and arrogant like you used to be... I'm glad you found peace with yourself...

Laxus: Damn it...

Future Lucy: Wendy... you were always like a little sister to me... you may not have Grandeeney with you... but I can tell you've gained a mother who love you dearly...

This caused Wendy to cry even more, as did Carla as she came close to the young girl. 

Future Lucy: Keep bringing out the best in each other... (looks at Mira and Elfman) Mirajane... I still remember when you gave me the official Fairy Tail mark on my hand... that was the best moment of my life... becoming a part of your family... Elfman... even though you can be a brute, you protect your sisters like a real man would...

Mira: Oh Lucy...

Mira and Elfman felt like they were losing Lisanna all over again, even seeing their younger sister's supposed death in front of them.

Lucy: Gray... Erza... you two taught me so much... I'd like to think... that I would have been just as great a wizard as you... You were the best friends I could ask for...

Gray: (sad smile) You'd be the best...

Erza: (crying through her left eye) Lucy... I...

Happy: Oh Lucy... please just try to hang in there...! We need you...!

Happy came close to the dying blonde, the cracks spreading across her body even further.

Future Happy: Oh sweet Happy... I never admitted it... but I always loved your little jokes... and that snarky attitude of yours... and trying to see the best in all of us...

She gently reached out to caress his cheek. 

Future Lucy: You've honored me with your friendship... Please don't be sad on my account... for a Lucy who's not even from your world...

Happy: Don't talk like that! We don't care if you're someone from another time, you're still our Lucy! You're our friend and we love you! We don't wanna lose you! So of course we're sad! How can we not be?!

As he cried, Lisanna had kneeled down to pick up the blue Exceed and hold him close before she tried to smile toward Future Lucy despite the tears in her eyes.

Lisanna: Is there anything we can do for you...?

Future Lucy: Lisanna... you were probably the most selfless person I've met... I might even fall for you... but I know you'll find happiness with the ones that you love and how they love you back... so keep going... and thanks for everything...

Lisanna smiled and nodded as the tears flowed down her cheeks. Just then, Future Lucy started to fade in golden light. 

Future Lucy: My time is up... But before I go, I one final request... Please, save Y/N and have him come home to Fairy Tail... I can tell he is suffering deep down... by an unknown dark force... one that not even he can fight it... (crying with a smile) I will always love him...

Soon, Future Lucy's body faded into gold sparkles that disappear. No words could describe the grief and sadness they all felt in that one moment. Even if she had come from another time, she was still the Lucy they all knew and many loved. And now she was gone. Every single one of them had tears in their eyes as most of them were already sobbing. She risked everything, even her own life, just to come back and give them this chance. They would not waste it.

Wendy: (crying, turn towards Y/N) Is this... what you wanted...?

The Ferrer siblings looked down in sadness, feeling bad for Fairy Tail's loss. Y/N had a tear through his right eye, even though his eyes were closed briefly.

Y/N: This turn of events... was unfortunate and even unnecessary... (opens his eyes, revealing his cold and ambitious look) But it won't change what has to be done. What I must do.

The crying Lucy looked at Y/N with an expression of rage and heartbreak.

Lucy: (crying) Is that really all you care about...? Is your quest for revenge and power more important than the rest of us?! Do you want to achieve that goal more than your family?! Is that really what you want Y/N?! Do we truly mean nothing to you?! 

Y/N: What I want is irrelevant. It's what has to be done!

Lucy: (crying) That's bullshit and you know it! Why are you acting like this?! Cut it out! The Y/N know I fell for would never be that cruel!

Y/N's teeth gritted as he tightly gripped his hand into a fist.

Y/N: That Y/N was a naive boy...! One who is too weak or worthless to live!

Lucy: (crying) Everyone in Fairy Tail took in and raised as their own! Me, Erza, Wendy, Juvia, Cana, Mira, Lisanna, Levy...! We all loved you! Why are you trying so hard to push us away?! Why would you push away a real chance at finding happiness?!

Y/N: That happiness you speak of is false! (green markings were seen on his right arm) Might controls everything! Without strength, you can't protect anyone! Let alone yourself! That is the unspoken truth of this world! 

Natsu: THEN I'M GONNA BURN THAT TRUTH INTO A PILE OF ASHES!!!

Natsu lunged his fist at Y/N, unleashing an inferno on him before he blocked it with his hand. But this gave enough time for Natsu a chance to push through and slug him across the face. The Demon King slide between Ronin and Rin as he looked at the enraged Salamander who had tears of fury in his eyes.

Natsu: I won't let you use Fairy Tail to destroy this world's future, not while I live! I'm gonna bring you back to the guild, Y/N, right now!

Y/N growls before he formed his mask as a dark green and purple aura surges around his body along with dark lightning and his left eye glowing red.

Y/N: You can try, but eventually you will fall!

Chapter 8 ended. 

What do you think of this chapter? Surprised you, didn't I? The next chapter will be last arc of the Grand Magic Games as I will be making a new arc which will be known as the Devil Hand Arc. 

The references I'll be using for this arc will be based of Battle of Fairy Tail Arc, Tenrou Island Arc, Lendard Arc, and an alter Devil Hand Arc from one of my books, Fairy May Cry. 

In the next one, Fairy Tail will face Y/N and the Four Horsemen while the combined Sabertooth, Lamia Scale, and Mermaid Heel team will face of most of the six of the Ten Deadly Sins that I've selected. 

Let me know what you guys think at the comments below, peace out!
