Magnolia

Fairy Tail's strongest team consisting of Natsu, Gray, Erza, Wendy, Lucy, and the flying cats Happy and Carla, had now just left the train station and are now on their way back to the guild, along with two possible new recruits from the guild.

Dante: So this is Magnolia huh?

Kat: This town is amazing.

Lucy: Just wait till a holiday comes along; this city throws parties for even the smallest of things.

Happy: (flew next to Natsu) Yeah Magnolia sure does love to party.

Natsu: Not that many. I mean sure, there's the Fantasia Parade, the Flower Viewing Bingo Tournament...

Lucy: Hey Fire-breath, you're forgetting the Miss Fairy Tail contest!

Natsu: Oh yeah, didn't you take the title for that this year Lucy?

Lucy: (nervously laughs) How about we pretend I never brought this up, for real!

Dante smirked a bit at this amusing scene.

Erza: So Dante. Why is it you and Kat wish to join Fairy Tail?

Carla: (flew next to Wendy) Yes, I am curious to that as well.

Dante: Well for a number of reasons. First, my shop is trashed and it's a pain in the ass to rebuild and very expensive. Second, there haven't been too many jobs in the category of demon-hunting, so I think I may as well expand my job range a bit.

Gray: You short on money or something?

Dante: I've got quite a few debts I gotta take care of. And weren't you wearing a shirt a few seconds ago?

Gray's eyes went wide as he saw his shirt was gone, again.

Gray: (thoughts) Why do I keep doing that!?

Kat: He seriously did not notice it?

Wendy: I'm sure you're gonna love it at Fairy Tail. It's very lively and the people there are great.

Kat: So we've heard.

Natsu: Hey Dante, are you strong?

Dante: I'd say so.

Natsu: Good, cause when you join the guild, you're gonna fight me!

This caused Lucy, Erza, Gray, and Kat to sweatdrop.

Dante: Sure, if you're in the mood to loose most of your internal organs.

Natsu: (mischievous smirk) Sounds like a challenge.

Gray: You think everything's a challenge bone-head.

Natsu: You scared you pervy stripper?

Gray butted heads with Natsu with red and blue sparks flying from friction between the two.

Gray: You wanna go you moron!?

Natsu: Yeah lets go right now Ice boy!

Erza: That's enough!

Erza split their heads apart and the sounds of bone cracking was heard.

Dante: Is it always like it with them?

Lucy: (exhaled deeply) You have no idea.

Happy: They're the strongest team!

Kat: More like the strangest team to me.

The group continued their walk through Magnolia, with Erza pulling on Natsu and Gray's ears most of the way.

Fairy Tail guildhall

Dante: Wow. Big place you got.

Kat: Yeah, no kidding.

Gray: We're not the strongest guild in Fiore for nothing.

Natsu: (kicked the doors open and greeted everyone) Hey! We made it back alive!

The team was warmly welcomed back by all their comrades. Dante and Kat stood by the doorway observing the scene play out around him.

Levy: Hey welcome back girl! (hugged Lucy)

Lucy: Thanks, glad to be back.

Two seconds later and the entire guild was then suddenly flooded with water. The source of the flood was none other than Juvia, whose tears we're flowing like an endless waterfall.

Juvia: (crying) My beloved Gray you're back! I'm so relieved you made it home!

She was completely oblivious to the comically drowning guild members around her.

Random wizard: Gray, stop you're girlfriend; we're dying here!

Gray: SHE'S NOT MY FREAKING GIRLFRIEND!!!

The Guildhall was flushed out five seconds later. Dante and Kat observed it all with a raised eyebrow.

Dante: I'm here for less than a minute and I already love this place.

Kat: Still, you got to admit that they've keep their wizards under control.

Dante: Ah stop being a spoil brat Kat. Trust me you'll get used to it.

Dante and Kat walked with Erza to the counter where Mirajane and Makarov, sitting on the bar, were waiting.

Erza: Hello master.

Makarov: Welcome back, Erza. I'm pleased you and your team of dunderheads made it back in one piece. (Sees Dante and Kat) And I see you brought some new friends.

Dante immediately caught eye of Mirajane and instantly recognized her from Sorcerer Weakly.

Dante: Well, if it isn't the ravishing Miss Mirajane. 

He took her hand like a gentleman.

Drake: I must say you're even more beautiful in person.

He then kissed her hand, earning a giggle from her.

Mira: (blush) Well, aren't you the gentleman.

Makarov: So who might these two be?

Erza: They are Dante and Kat. Dante helped us a great deal in the demon-slaying job my team and I were in, and they wishes to join Fairy Tail.

This caught the attention of many of the Fairy Tail wizards who eyed him with interest; not to mention the massive sword he carried around with him.

Makarov: Oh really? Why do you wish to join Fairy Tail?

Dante: Well my business was destroyed and both Kat and I am now unemployed, so do we need to fill out an application or something?

Makarov: That won't be necessary. All we really need is a name.

Dante: Dante.

Makarov: Last name as well.

That had Dante think for a moment, he never really had a last name. However, since it was apparently necessary now, he went for an alias that he used once. 

Dante: Dante Redgrave.

Kat: Kat Liones.

Makarov: Very well then.

Mira: Since you are interested in joining, you'll need a guild emblem. What color would you like?

Dante: Red, like my jacket.

Kat: I'll take pink.

Mira nodded and went for a stamper underneath the counter. She pulled it out. 

Mira: And where would you like it?

Dante loosened his jacket a bit and allowed it to slightly fall, revealing his left shoulder.

Dante: Right here please.

Mira then stamped and Dante now had a red Fairy Tail emblem on his left shoulder.

Kat: On my right hand please.

Mira then stamped and Kat now had a pink Fairy Tail emblem on her right hand.

Mira: Welcome to Fairy Tail Dante and Kat. So, if you don't mind me asking; what skills do you have?

Dante: Oh, we're Devil Hunters.

This earned a large gasp from practically everyone in the guild who all looked extremely surprised at Dante and Kat; who eyed them all curiously with a raised eyebrow.

Dante: (to Kat) Was it something I said?

Kat: How should I know?

Fairy Tail members: THAT'S AWESOME!!!

They all exclaimed at the same time with massive grins, earning a small wide eye from the white haired warrior and the hooded girl.

Fairy Tail members: WE HAVE DEVIL HUNTERS!!!

Wakaba: First three Dragon Slayers now two Devil Hunters, we're gonna be even more unstoppable now!

Macao: Welcome to the family, happy to have you aboard.

Dante and Kat couldn't help but smiled.

Makarov: Dante. You said you and Kat were Devil Hunters, what skills specifically do you posses?

Dante thought for a moment, explaining his abilities could get a little complicated.

Dante: You know, maybe it would be easier if I show you, but I'll need a sparing partner.

Dante turned to certain pink-haired teenager telling off the job he just took to Elfman.

Natsu: (stretched out his arms to simulate wings)... And the demons all had wings and started flying!

Elfman: Yeah, yeah; now I know you're pulling my leg. Demons aren't manly enough to fly.

Dante smirked.

(Timeskip)

Southgate Park

Dante vs. Natsu:

Most of the guild had circled around the entire park; Dante stood in front of the Sola Tree staring down to his opponent with an eager smirk.

Natsu: I hope you're ready to have your ass handed to you Dante.

Dante: You definitely got guts, I'll give you that much. Don't worry, I'm not gonna cut off any limbs or anything. (Draws Rebellion) But if you get put into a coma, don't blame me.

Natsu: (his right fist lit on fire) I can say the same for you buddy.

Lucy: Is it just me, or are those two happy to beat the crap out of each other?

Happy: That's Natsu for ya!

Wendy: I hope they don't seriously hurt each other.

Carla: Something tells me this will be the case.

Elfman: Look at that massive sword of his, that's the sword of a real man!

Erza and Makarov both eyed the upcoming duel with interest; eager to see what the newest member of Fairy Tail can do.

Natsu: Fire Dragon Roar!

Natsu unleashed a torrent of flame from his mouth straight to Dante who used his sword to actually cut the breath attack in half, both halves streamed past him. Natsu then jumped towards Dante.

Natsu: Fire Dragon Talon!

Natsu's feet were on fire as he went for a high axe-kick to Dante, who blocked it with the hilt of his sword, but Natsu anticipated this.

Natsu: Fire Dragon Iron Fist!

Natsu's right flaming fist impacted Dante's face and knocked Dante back a couple of feet. Dante smirked as he rubbed a small burn mark on his left cheek.

Dante: Alright then. I've always wondered to see how a Dragon Slayer would fight, and now I get the chance.

Natsu: You're about to see a lot more, I'm only warming up. (jumped up in the air) Fire Dragon Brilliant Flame!

Natsu then began throwing several fireballs for Dante who was able to either quickly dodge them all as they exploded off the ground, or block them with Rebellion. Dante took out a hunting shotgun with a sawn-off bore and began to fire rapidly at the Fire Dragon Slayer.

Bisca: (thoughts and surprised) He's a good marksman. He can also wield guns like me and Alzack.

Natsu rolled along the ground avoiding all the shots. Except for one, which just grazed his shoulder. He gripped it a bit but was surprised to see he wasn't bleeding. Dante saw his surprised face.

Dante: Don't worry, these kind of bullets are only fatal to demons. They won't kill a human but they still hurt. A lot.

Natsu: Good to know. Come on let's make the game more interesting.

Dante: Thought you never ask.

Dante jumped high into the air, he sheathed Rebellion and his hands began to glow.

Dante: Agni! Rudra!

When the glow vanished he had a small red curved sword in his right hand, and a blue curved sword in his left.

Erza looked at this with surprise.

Erza: (thoughts) Was that Requip magic?

Dante then came close to Natsu and begun to swing his blades at Natsu, who was trying hard to avoid even a single hit. As Dante continued to swing, Natsu noticed something about these new swords; the red one was lighting on fire, while the blue one had gusts of air coming from it. 

Dante kicked Natsu in the abs and sent him back. Dante then thrust both swords together and unleashed a massive stream of fire and wind straight to Natsu.

Makarov, Erza, Wendy, and Lucy were all surprised to see one weapon use fire and the other with air. Natsu smirked as the huge attack came barreling towards him.

Natsu: Come to papa.

The blast exploded on Natsu. Dante was somewhat surprised to see Natsu take the attack dead-on like that. He looked to the guild members observing the spectacle and was surprised to see them not looking worried in the slightest. 

The white haired devil hunter then heard some kind of suction sound and turned to the massive fire he just lit and raised an eyebrow to see Natsu unscathed and all of the fire stream into his mouth like a vacuum cleaner.

Dante: (smirk) So the rumors are true. You can eat fire.

When all the flames were sucked in, Natsu rubbed his mouth.

Natsu: Thanks for the meal. Now I got a fire in my belly. (lept towards Dante) Fire Dragon Wing Attack!

Natsu lunged his arms forward and sent several waves of fire to Dante who leapt back into the Sola Tree.

Dante: If Agni and Rudra ain't gonna cut it, let's work from the other end.

Dante's hands glowed again and Agni and Rudra both vanished, and something else was in their place.

Dante: Cerberus!

In Dante's hands was now a light-blue tripartite nunchuck. 

Dante twirled it in front of him and multiple ice shards began to blast towards Natsu at the speed of bullets, Natsu jumped to avoid all of them.

Gray looked at this with surprise.

Gray: (thoughts) First two swords with fire and air, now an ice weapon?

Dante jumped high into the air with Natsu and begun to twirl two ends of Cerberus above his head, as he continued to twirl them, the chains attacking the two ends begun to quickly expand and stretch at a massive rate, until they were long enough to reach Natsu and slammed into his gut. 

Dante continued to twirl them at an even faster rate making Natsu's head spin. It appeared Natsu was about to blow chunks, his motion sickness getting the better of him. What he didn't notice was from his abs, where Cerberus was hitting him, ice was forming and begun to expand all over his body.

Dante threw Cerberus out and sent Natsu crashing to the ground. When the dust cleared the other guild members looked to see Natsu about to puke, but what really surprised him was his entire body from the neck down was completely frozen.

Dante: (landed gracefully next to Natsu) Looks like I win.

Happy: He actually beat Natsu?

Lucy: I can't believe he can use fire, air, and ice magic!

Erza looked to Dante as his weapon glowed then vanished. 

Erza: (thoughts) He didn't use that magic, it came from his weapons.

Dante was about to walk when away when he felt sudden surge of power. The ice around Natsu's body began to melt before it broke as his body was engulfed in flames. 

Dante: What the hell is this?! His flames are getting hotter than before!

Natsu: Dragon Slayer Secret Art...!

Kat: Uh oh, I think your friend is going overboard!

Lucy: Natsu, wait!

Gray: You idiot!

Erza: Stop it!

Natsu: Flame Lotus Exploding Flame Blade!

Both Natsu's arms were engulfed in fire as he spun his body and launched a massive torrent of flame on Dante. 

Dante's mind: This is insane, he was holding this power back? (smiles) Natsu Dragneel, you are an incredible wizard...

An explosion was made, causing a shockwave and a dust cloud. The guild members shield themselves from the wind and dust.

Gajeel: Salamander went overboard this time!

Levy: Will Dante withstand it?!

Panther Lily: It's hard to tell!

Elfman: This sucks!

Kat: Drake!

The dust cloud was clearing as everyone in Fairy Tail widen their eyes in shocked. Dante was still standing, and he didn't had a scratch on him.

Dante: (whistles) That was close. If that attack hit him, I would've been knocked out.

Gajeel: (shocked) What the hell?!

Lucy: (shocked) How did survived an attack like that?!

Happy: Hold on, where's Natsu?

Dante: (counts down with his fingers) 3. 2. 1.

They heard screaming as they saw Natsu fall from the sky and landed on the ground, unconscious.

Dante: Wow, that was fun. I guess that's it then.

Gray: No way! 

Makarov: How is still standing? Did Natsu's attack backfired or something?

Mirajane: No, that was something else. I saw it with my own eyes.

(small flashback)

Mirajane: Natsu did tried to land a finishing blow, but Dante surprisedly caught it just before the attack could hit him.

Natsu thrust his fist at Dante with large quantity of flames in the process, however, the Devil Hunter grabbed him by the wrist.

Natsu widen his eyes in surprise, but what even shocked him the most was Dante's eyes glow red with a red aura surrounding his body.

Mirajane: Then he sent Natsu flying with a single punch.

Dante smiled as he gave Natsu a punch at his chest which send him flying to the sky. 

(flashback ended)

Mirajane's mind: But what gives me the chills was a strange, yet powerful aura I felt from Dante. I'm not sure what, but it feels so, demonic. 

Dante: Any more takers? I'm only getting warmed up.

Juvia: I'm certain Gray can get the job done.

???: If Salamander lost...

A voice came from the crowd as a man just at Dante's age walked into the 'arena' toward Dante.

Gajeel: (smirk) I'm sure I'll have no problem kicking your ass.

Dante vs. Gajeel

Dante observed as Gray and Happy dragged the half-frozen, still-sick Natsu out of the apparent arena before looking at Gajeel.

Dante: Well, well. Blacksteel Gajeel, the Iron Dragon Slayer.

Gajeel: Looks like I got quite the reputation if some random Devil Hunter knows me.

Dante: Not really. Just read you up on a magazine.

This caused Gajeel to sweatdrop a little.

Gajeel: Either way, I'm gonna wipe the floor with you.

Dante: We'll see about that.

Erza: Master?

Makarov: Let them go. I'm quite certain Dante wishes to show us what more he has in store.

They both turned the attention to the brewing battle. Levy looked on with a bit of worry.

Levy: (thoughts) Don't do anything stupid you metal idiot.

The stare down continued between the two. Gajeel made the first move.

Gajeel: Iron Dragon Club!

Gajeel's right arm turned into a metallic pillar and outstretched rapidly towards Dante, who blocked it with the hilt of his massive blade, but was pushed back on the ground with the force from the attack.

Dante jumped into the air and raised Rebellion high, ready to strike it down on the Iron Dragon Slayer. Gajeel jumped back some distance right before the sword left a crater upon impact.

Gajeel: Iron Dragon Lance: Demon Logs!

Gajeel's left arm turned into a metallic spear and begun to rapidly shoot spikes of green energy like a machine gun straight for Dante.

Dante twirled Rebellion in front of him rapidly like a helicopter blade and was able to block all the incoming attacks.

Dante: My turn.

He took out both his Ebony and Ivory pistols and fired rapidly towards Gajeel who crossed his arms. The magic bullets exploded off impact. Levy and Wendy looked on with worry, but when the dust cleared, Dante raised an eyebrow to see Gajeel unscathed and completely coated in metal skin.

Gajeel: Iron Dragon Scale.

Dante: You gave yourself a metal skin, that's quite the defense.

Gajeel: (smirk) This isn't just metal buddy, these are the scales of an Iron Dragon; good luck trying to get through this!

Dante: Bet I still can. (took out Rebellion again and lunged towards Gajeel)

Gajeel: Iron Dragon Sword!

Gajeel leapt to Dante, his right arm in the form of a sword with spikes at the blades. The two locked blades. The spikes began to spin on Gajeel's sword like a chainsaw as it continued to lock with Rebellion. Sparks began to fly as the two continued to wrestle. They both jumped back a couple feet, Gajeel looked with surprise to see Rebellion doesn't have so much as a scratch on it.

Gajeel: Well this is getting interesting.

The two charged again and began a sword duel with their respective blades. They both swung at each other and blocked any strike that came their way. As the two continued to spar, Gajeel thought of something. Dante was slightly caught off guard when he saw Gajeel's non-sword arm catch the blade and bring it close to his face. Gajeel opened his mouth and bit into Rebellion. His eyes went wide and he jumped away from Dante and clutched his mouth as if he had a toothache.

Gajeel: Ugh! What the hell?!

Levy, Erza, and Makarov were all greatly surprised. A metal Gajeel couldn't eat?

Dante: Natsu's a Fire Dragon Slayer, so he eats fire. You're an Iron Dragon Slayer, so if you follow with the same logic, you eat metal. But Rebellion here isn't made of just your average metal. It's forged from a very special demonic metal from the demon world; try and bite a chunk off this and you might give yourself a cavity.

Gajeel: (took his hand from his mouth) Well then. Try and block this! Iron Dragon Roar!

Gajeel blasted a massive stream of metal shards from his mouth barreling straight for Dante who cut the breath attack in half with rebellion just like he did with Natsu.

Dante: Let's make things more exciting, shall we? 

He put away Rebellion and his hands began to glow again.

Dante: Nevan!

In Dante's hands was another new weapon. This one was a dark purple scythe, with small arcs of purple lightning coming off it.

All looked on with surprise.

Gray: How many weapons does this guy have!?

Dante swung the blade of his scythe and sent a wave of purple lightning straight to Gajeel, who blocked it by crossing his arms. When the wave impacted him, a small surge of purple lightning surged through his body as he grunted in pain. Gajeel looked high in the air to see Dante coming down at him with Nevan, Gajeel blocked it with an Iron Dragon Club on his right arm.

Dante: (smirk) There's a problem with metal, it conducts electricity pretty well.

Gajeel's eyes went wide. The scythe glowed with purple lightning and sent a massive charge into Gajeel who yelped in pain, being coated in a metal skin was not the best idea here. 

Dante kicked Gajeel back and sent a beam of purple lightning from the scythe's blade toward Gajeel and blasted him back into the crowd of wizards, who dispersed to see Gajeel impact the ground, scales vanished, with swirls in his eyes; signaling his defeat.

Levy, Jet, and Droy came to Gajeel and helped him to his feet.

Dante: Next?

He was wondering if anyone else wanted to take him. To say most of the guild was surprised was an understatement.

Wendy: He defeated both Natsu and Gajeel?

Lucy: How crazy strong is this guy?

Kat: Very strong. His power and speed has unmatched anyone you guys have ever faced. (thoughts) Except for one.

Happy: You wanna fight him Lucy?

Lucy: (waving her arms frantically) What?! Are you crazy?! I'd be Slaughtered!

Dante: Anyone? (Nevan vanished from his hands)

Everyone was looking around to see if anyone would dare take an attempt on this man. But it seemed there were no volunteers, even Gray knew he wouldn't last too long if he could beat Natsu and Gajeel this quickly.

Erza: Well, if no one else is willing to step up. I'll take you on Dante.

Dante vs. Erza

If the guild wasn't interested before, they certainly are now. Dante Redgrave against Erza Scarlet; this should be good.

Dante: First the Salamander, then Blacksteel, now the famous Erza Scarlet. It must be my lucky day.

Erza: Luck? In my experience, there's no such thing.

Dante: Why don't we do this a little more up-close and personal.

Gray: Hold on, is he hitting on Erza?

Lucy: Why on earth would he do that?!

Kat: That's just how Dante is.

Elfman: Cause he's a man.

Natsu's dizziness shook off.

Natsu: (weakly) What I miss?

Dante and Erza continued to stand, neither of them so much as twitching. Makarov looked on with great interest at this.

Dante: Come on, show me what you got.

Erza's body began to glow as she requipped into her Heaven's Wheel Armor, a sword in each hand.

Erza: Very well, but I warn you, I will not be holding back.

Dante: (draws Rebellion) It be a shame if you did.

After five seconds of heated staring, they both charged. Blades locked and it was a magnificent dance of blades as the two continued to par swords with each other. Erza was on the offensive swinging hard at Dante, not giving him so much as an opening. Dante continued to block every strike from Erza with Rebellion. Dante continued to smile; this was the most fun he ever had.

Deciding it was time to switch things up, Dante leapt high in the air above Erza and landed behind her. This time she was on the defensive. Dante continued to swing Rebellion with little effort, despite the blade's massive size. Erza was stuck blocking all the attacks Dante continued to swing at her. Erza leapt back, and took flight into the air.

Dante: Come on, don't tell me that's all you got.

Erza: It isn't. (she summoned over two dozen floating blades) Dance my swords!

The swords lunged down towards Dante at incredible speeds. Dante drew Ebony and Ivory and began to shoot at the swords. Each magic bullet impacted each sword and sent it away. 

Erza continued to summon and launch more swords, while Dante continued to shoot them all down, the sparks from the collisions not leaving one particular area of where they met. When it was all done, not a single sword had it it's mark.

Lucy: (surprised) He blocked them all?

Happy: Man, this guy really is something.

Dante: Agni! Rudra!

He jumped and brought out his Fire and Air blades. He swung them down at the flying Erza and the force sent her to the ground. Dante, still in the air, blasted another stream of combined fire and air to Erza. Dante was surprised to see another blast of fire counter it.

When Dante landed he saw Erza requipped into another armor, her Flame Empress armor, complete with it's own flaming blade.

Dante: Man, you're just on fire Miss Scarlet.

Erza then sent a wave of fire to Dante with her sword, Dante responded the same way. A massive explosion of fire erupted between them, sending them both back quite a bit.

Dante: Time to juice things up. Nevan!

Dante had his electric scythe again and came right for Erza as the smoke cleared. Erza just barley ducked as the electric blade was inches from her face. She back flipped and requipped once again. When she landed she was in her Lightning Empress Armor.

Dante: Man, you are full of sexy surprises.

Erza: You would be wise to take this seriously.

She leapt and lunged with her electric spear, which Dante avoided by back flipping, himself. 

Erza: If you joke around against a powerful opponent, it could be your last mistake.

Dante: Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm taking this seriously. Just enjoying the moment. It's been a while since anyone's given me this kind of work out.

Dante sent a wave of purple lightning, Erza mirrored the attack with her spear. Purple and Blue lighting collided in a bright flash, causing all the wizards to shield their eyes and/or turn away.

When the flash subsided. Erza looked to see a chain coming towards her. It wrapped around her, binding her arms to her upper body. She looked at surprise to see Dante holding his weapon Cerberus.

Dante: Maybe you need to cool off a little.

Ice began to form around the tied up Erza. She struggled a little to escape the grip, but had no luck. She glowed again and requipped into another armor, her Sea Empress armor. 

She closed her eyes and concentrated.  The ice around her began to crack as she threw out her arms and broke free. Dante pulled the extended end of his ice-nunchuck back.

Dante: Out of curiosity, how many armors do you have?

Erza: Well over a hundred.

Dante: Wow. You must be prepared for everything.

Erza: I try my best. Now, if you don't mind me asking, how many of those weapons do you have?

Dante: These are all I got. Don't got anymore than this. The Shotgun one you saw earlier is called Revenant.

(If you don't know Dante has given Eryx, Osiris, Arbiter, and Aquila to Kat as her Devil Arms)

Erza: If that's the case...

Erza began to requip yet again, but this time not into armor. She wore red pants with yellow flames at the bottom, and cloth straps wrapped around her chest; her hair tied back. She had two katanas in each hand.

Erza: Let us simply duel with blades. No magic armor, no magic weapons; merely blade for blade.

Dante: So we're doing this old-school style huh? Alright then. (puts away Cerberus and drew Rebellion) On guard!

Dante and Erza then paired blade for blade yet again. It was mostly a blur with their own weapons. They swung their own respective weapon with such speed it was almost impossible to see. 

They each moved with great speed and agility as well; spending merely every second at every corner of the arena, they even leapt from the many tree branches on the Sola Tree.

All looked on with great surprise, even the Thunder Legion consisting of Freed, Bigslow, and Evergreen looked on mesmerized at the magnificent sword duel taking place.

The two landed in the center of the park, Dante swung with his blade and knocked one of the katanas out of Erza's right hand. Erza lunged at Dante who purposely fell back, not just to avoid the blade, but to kick out of Erza's hand. Dante then pointed his blade close to the unarmed Erza's throat.

Dante: I guess I win.

All were surprised to say the least. The mighty Titania was beaten in front of them, granted this was mostly a sparing match, but still. 

To see Erza loose was a very, very rare sight. Lucy, Wendy, Happy, Gray, and Carla especially were out of breath seeing Erza defeated. 

Gajeel, who had just recovered from his fight looked with surprise with Levy and Team Shadow Gear, as well as Cana, Elfman, Mirajane, Macao, and Wakaba. 

Makarov looked on with great intensity. To defeat Natsu, Gajeel, and Erza, three of Fairy Tail's strongest.

Erza smiled and requipped back into her regular Heart Kruez Armor. Dante lowered the Rebellion.

Erza: You are a worthy opponent, Dante. Welcome to Fairy Tail.

(Timeskip)

Fairy Tail Guild Hall

The Guild was in the midst of a small celebration; welcoming the recruit of such a strong and powerful warrior into their ranks as well as Kat. Dante was sitting at the bar.

Mira: What can I get you Dante?

Dante: Strawberry Sundae.

Mira: Coming right up. (She left to get one)

Cana: (sitting next to Dante) You eat Strawberry Sundaes this early?

Kat: It's pretty much his favourite desert.

Elfman: He's a real man, and he can eat whatever he wants.

Dante: Uh thanks, I think.

Mira then came right back up with the strawberry sundae for Dante.

Mira: Here you go.

Dante: Thank you. (Took a small bite) Hmm. Perfecto.

As soon as he said that, all the lights at the entire guildhall went out.

Dante: What's going on? 

A spotlight opened on the stage revealing Gajeel in a white tuxedo, a white hat, and sunglasses.

Kat: Uh, what's he doing?

Cana: (slightly face palmed) Oh boy, here we go.

Gajeel: (sings) Sparling and colorful, shubi bu ba! You caught my eyes like a shiny piece of metal...

Dante: He's singing?

Kat: (blocks her ears) He should practice more cause his singing voice is terrible!

Natsu: WOULD YOU SHUT UP?!?!

Natsu suddenly punched Gajeel clear across the guildhall.

Gajeel: (growled) Why you little...

Natsu: That song of yours freaking sucks! When is that gonna get through you're freaking skull?!

Natsu felt an iron pillar impacted his stomach.

Gajeel: I got a song in my heart Salamander. And you ain't stopping it from coming out!

Natsu: Oh yeah?!

The two dragon slayers collided and begun to fight yet again. A comic dust-cloud formed as fists and feet began to come out from it, along with a few fireballs and metal pillars.

Wakaba: (sigh) Here we go again.

Makarov: Please stop.

Makarov pleaded, but his please were on deaths ear. A random cup smacked Natsu in the face

Natsu: Which one of you guys threw that huh?!

Gray: Natsu!

He stood up and accidentally knocked over a piece of Erza's cake on the floor, much to her horror.

Gray: Will you quit screwing around already?!

Erza: He made me... drop... my strawberry... cake.

She gave a light scream as Elfman accidentally stepped onto the cake.

Elfman: Now listen up! If you're real men you'd take this outside!

Elfman got kicked away by an extremely angry Erza.

Erza: Watch it you oaf!

That was it, in no time at all, the guildhall erupted into yet another fight. Virtually every wizard punched and kicked any wizard that moved. 

Save for Wendy, Lucy, Levy, Happy, and Carla, who were hiding underneath a table to avoid getting caught up in the fight.

Makarov then began to comically cry. This was all being observed by Dante and Kat, who could only stare on.

Kat: Is it always like this here?

Mira: (smile) Pretty much.

Dante: (smirk) I'm gonna love this place.

Chapter 4 ended.
