Chapter 16 - Battle of the Dragon Slayers!
Disclaimer: Hey guys! Firestorm40 here with a new chapter for you all. Finally it's the fight everyone has been waiting for. The Dragon Slayers will finally duke it out! Hope you're looking forward to it. So without further ado, Enjoy!
-------------------
"Next Match Lamia Scale vs Mermaid Heel!" with that came in the contestants known as Milianna and Kagura along with Lyon and Yuka "Let the match begin!"
However, as soon as the match was started, Kagura took a few steps back, leaving it to Milianna, who then removed and threw her cloak to the side and launched herself forward, attacked Lyon right away with non-stop attacks. The Ice-mage dodged them easily and casted a spell at Kagura, hoping to bring the strong mermaid into the fight, but her teammate immediately stepped in and smashed all of his spell with her claws. It was Yuka's turn to attack, but Milianna dodged every little one before latching herself onto Yuka, punching him continuously.
"Holy crap!" Natsu and Gray cried out, shocked at what was happening
"She really is strong, isn't she?" Sora muttered, his words were mostly for Erza, who was looking at her childhood friend with a somewhat sad smile.
"Milianna..." Erza knew Milianna's hatred had not wavered..
The cat/mermaid then jumped off, landing in front of both of her opponents. She removed her gloves and scratched them both in the face much to the shock of both Lamia Scale's mages. Milianna attacked once again, this time with her magic but Yuka blocked the attack, sending it elsewhere. Milianna wasn't fazed by this at all and summoned multiple orange tentacles with her magic in order to attack them.
"He got tricked." Sora said simply when one of the tentacles slipped around to the back, grabbing one of Yuka's arms.
"Heh, Lyon won't allow it anyway." Gray said and immediately after that, Lyon, jumped into the fight and cut through it with a single ice eagle. Milianna repeated her attack, and Yuka and Lyon seemed to try to block and dodge but it wasn't working as well as they wanted to.
Eventually they got caught and they were stuck where they were. Lyon made a mouse out of ice and it started running away, catching the attention of Milianna.
"Seriously?" Natsu cried out she seemed unsure for a moment, but she cancelled her magic and started chasing after the mouse much to the shock of everyone. She suddenly realized what she was doing and she stopped, started yelling at Lyon, who then made a blizzard, freezing Milianna in her place because of the coldness.
Lyon continued his attack, this time he created a living snow tiger and willed it to attack the cat girl, who barely dodged it and was scared out of her wits.
She continued to run away from it and suddenly ran straight into a wall.
"Sorry..." Milianna said sheepishly while scratching the back of her head. Kagura looked at her for a moment before sighing in defeat.
Yuka made the first move on her, but it missed Kagura altogether. He tried again and Kagura simply knocked it aside with her unsheathed sword.
"Here she comes." Gray said as Kagura then launched herself at Yuka first. The two mages exchanged blows, dodging each other's attacks while trying to hit each other but from the look of it, everyone could tell that Kagura was having the upper hand in the fight, as before Yuka could attack again, Kagura got behind him and knocked him out with her sword.
The swordswomen wasted no time and charged at Lyon, who summoned an army of dragonflies to attack her. The mermaid dodged through all of them almost too easy. Gray's rival summoned an ice eagle next, but it didn't even get to soar before Kagura hit him with her sword, knocking him down to the ground.
"This is the end for you, Lyon Vasta." Kagura stated calmly while holding her sword up.
"Oi! What the hell are you doing!" Gray cried out "Stand up you idiot."
"Shut up Gray." Lyon muttered with a force smile as he pushed himself up "I know what I'm doing..." with that the powerful Ice mage summoned another snow tiger and then giant a snow ape. To finish his magic, he made a huge snow dragon, surrounding himself with his ice-makes magic.
All 3 of them charged at Kagura, who jumped in the air to dodge them, but the snow dragon managed to hit her with its long body and send her back onto the ground, though the swordswomen managed to keep her footing and stared coldly at the 3 ice-make creatures.
Kagura then held her sword up and suddenly, a gigantic magic circle appeared in the sky.
"No way" Natsu said as he along with everyone tried to hold onto the field.
"She reverses the effect of her gravity magic," Levy cried out as she held onto an enlarged Pantherlily so she wouldn't be pulled to the sky "That is some very advantage gravity spell." All the ice-make creatures was lifted from the ground and pulled onto the sky, and Lyon was forced to follow pretty quickly.
Kagura jumped up, slicing through the ice-make creatures and making them disappear. She pushed off the magic circle, about to hit Lyon when suddenly, all magic disappeared upon the announcement of the end of the match, and everyone was a little bummed to not have seen the outcome.
It seemed the thirty minutes limit was over and the match had to end in a draw.
"As expected of Kagura..so strong." said Yuka wiping the blood of his mouth
"She didn't even get serious.." replied Lyon sweating nervously.
"Every year it's the same, no one has ever seen her get serious." said Yuka remembered the previous event.
"Are you alright Kagura?" asked Milianna worriedly
"I'm fine." Kagura stated calmly as she stood straight up and released a sigh "That man called Lyon has potential, if this wasn't a match but a fight to the death," She then turned her friend "you would be dead." finished Kagura looking at Milianna who was merely shocked
"Ugh..."
"become stronger." as Kagura made her way towards the exit but she then stopped at turned her head around, smiling softly at her friend "Because I can't be there to protect you all the time."
"Y-Yes!" replied Milianna with a huge smile, getting over her shock and running after Kagura, who turned her head up to glance at Sora for a second before disappearing into the alley.
Sora's eyes suddenly widened when an image of a small Kagura replaced the other one before it changed back. 'No way!' he thought 'She's...Simon's little sister!'
"Are you alright, Sora?" Erza asked, noticing his behavior.
"Huh? Oh yeah, I'm good. Just lost in thought for a bit." Sora said rubbing his head.
"I understand." Erza smiled with a nod of her head.
"It's a heated arena, but be sure to not miss any of the next fight!" Chapati cried out as the crowd went wild, knowing what was about to come next "Just now the emblems of both guilds have been erected in the arena! The current strongest guild of Fiore will battle the new guild that has shown great strength and took everyone by storm throughout the Tournament!" announced Chapati
"Fairy Tail's Sora Lionheart and Natsu Dragneel," the crow cheered out loudly "vs Sabertooth's Twin Dragon Slayer Sting Eucliffe and Rogue Cheney! And all four of them are Dragon Slayers, possessing magic that was made to kill dragons!" Chapati said as the audience roared in excitement.
"It's our turn bro." Sora said with a confident as he put a hand on Natsu's shoulder "You ready?"
"I've been waiting for this..." said Natsu while grinning evilly, cracking his knuckles while staring at Sting and Rogue, who were also having their own confident smile "Those Sabertooth mages will pay for what they did.
"Good luck guys." Erza and Laxus smiled at the two.
"Give them hell flame-brain" Gray nodded his head, pumping his fist into the air.
"Oh we plan to!" Sora grinned and jumped over the cliff with Natsu followed behind him, both of them didn't bother to take the stair "Let's go Natsu!"
"Aw yeah! I'm fired up now!"
------------------------
"It's finally time for their confrontation!" Chapati cried as Sora, Natsu and Sting, Rogue stood facing against each other on the battlefield "Who will win the Fairy or the Tiger!? Four dragons have been unleashed onto the battlefield, the dream match between powerhouse is finally here!"
"I've always waited for this moment, Natsu, Sora." Sting said to the duo, still keeping a very confident smile on his face.
"Sock it to em!" Gray yelled from the sidelines with by his side.
"Get 'em for us, too!" Laxus added his own as the cheering from the crowds continued to rain down around them. The Exceeds were jumping up and down with delight as they cheered along with the others.
"I have faith you'll win!" Erza shouted, a smile on her face. Down in the medical bay, the members of Fairy Tail listened to the cheers and knew that the match was about to start.
"Sora....good luck." Lucy whispered as she looked down at her ring.
"I'll be cheering for you guys." Wendy said with a smile
"Make your victory overwhelming." Sabertooth's master spoke gruffly. "Show them the strength of the guild."
"Just put all your heart into it. I have nothing else to say." Makarov said. Gajeel watched silently from the crowds, replaying what had happened minutes before the fight.
"Where's Gajeel?" Rogue asked Sora with a calm tone "I have no interest in fighting you."
"Don't worry, you'll get your chance to duke it out with him." Sora smirked "Right now, I will make sure to show you that I am a very exciting opponent."
"Match...!" Mato spoke up loudly as the entire stadium held their breath "...START!"
The coordinator shouted as the bell rang.
"Let's go!" Sting said with Rogue on his heels but before they could even do anything, the two dragon slayers from Fairy Tail were already bearing down on them. Natsu hit Sting hard with his elbow while Sora socked Rogue with a strong left-hook. The audience gasped in surprise as they realized that Sabertooth was being pushed back by the onslaught of attacks.
"Shit...they're strong." Sting gasped as he wiped the corner of his mouth. "Of course if they weren't this match would be boring as hell!"
"That..." Sora smiled as he curled his fingers, listening to them pop. "...was just a greeting."
"Shadow Dragon's Slash!" Rogue leaped at him, hand extended to rip him apart. Smirking the dragon slayer vanished right as he came close and he struck the empty air.
"What?" He looked around in confusion. "He...disappeared?! I thought only shadows can only do that..."
"Solar Dragon's Teleportation." Suddenly Sora emerged behind him and lashed out with a fierce round-house. Taken by surprise he skidded across the ground before being pounced on by Natsu. The fire dragon slayer gripped him by the face before slamming him into Sting.
"Fire Dragon's..." Natu's entire arms erupted into flames as he unleashed his move, the two dragon slayers from Sabertooth were unable to shake him off. "Wing attack!"
"What...what is going on here!?" Chapati exclaimed as the audience fell silent except for the members of Fairy Tail who were roaring the loudest in the stands. "Sting and Rogue! The twin dragons of Fiore's strongest guild are being pressured."
"Did you guys really beat dragons with that level of power?" Natsu asked, slightly disappointed that he was able to push his opponents over.
"Not beat...killed." Sting replied as he and Rogue took a breather for a few minutes, "With these very hands."
"Weren't they your parents?" Sora asked with narrowed eyes.
"That has nothing to do with you." Sting snapped as he amped up his power. "Now I'll show you the power that kills dragons. White Drive." White aura swirled around him, enveloping him in a soft light.
"Shadow Drive." Rogue said and a dark aura surrounded him.
"Now this getting interesting." Sora muttered.
"It's over, garbage guild." Jieema spoke from the stands. Immediately Sora looked up and locked eyes with him, showing him his ferocity that made him do a double-take but he still stared the dragon slayer down. He then turned his gaze back to his opponents.
Shadows cannot be captured." Rouge spoke, his eyes glowing red from the massive amount of darkness oozing out of his body.
"Whatever." Sora replied, gazing nonchalantly at him. "If you think shadows are unpredictable, then you're in for a spin pal!" The two of them vanished and the audience could only see streaks of black and gold flying at each other at blinding speed, flying across the ground and even on the walls. Because of the power boost, Natsu barely held off the onslaught of attacks from Sting and got knocked back by a strong fist.
"The White Dragon's claw is a holy attack." Sting grinned as he marked Natu's body. "A body marked by its stigmata has its freedom taken away." Natsu tried to move but his limbs refused to listen to him. "And with this...I will surpass you!" Gathering white energy into his fist, he flew towards the fire dragon slayer.
"The dragon that becomes shadow hides itself...surely hunts its prey..." " Rogue whispered in his Sora's ear as he kicked him while his back was turned. Thus ended their shadow/solar streaks as Sora skidded across the ground.
'He's fast!' He thought as he tried to lock on onto the shadow streak but it eluded his field of vision every time. 'But...!'
"Sorry to disappoint you..." Natsu grinned much to Sting's horror. "but..." Conjuring up his own fist of flames he punched String straight in the face as he dodged Sting's own fist. The stigmata on his stomach were burned away thanks to his flames, allowing him to take full control of his body once again. "that little trick won't be enough. You're good but still not good enough."
"Surely hunting...What was that?" Sora stated as he dodged Rogue's kick and grabbed onto his leg, holding him in the air. "With you the way you are...Gajeel would be disappointed." Jumping up into the air, he slammed Rogue down against the ground. "Don't get too full of yourselves. Don't look down on Fairy Tail." Together Natsu and Sora retaliated with vigor and the audience hadn't said much as they watched Sabertooth get pushed around. Natsu even stopped Sting's dragon slayer's secret art with only one hand, that's how shit went down.
"Damn you!" Rogue roared as he slithered up behind the dragon slayer. With an unamused look on his face, Sora jumped up and landed a devastating axe kick, kicking Rogue straight through the ground. He held back a bit so Rogue slowly got back up to his feet before stumbling back to Sting's side.
"Looks like we don't have any excuse this time." Sting looked at Rogue. "It's time for our second stage."
"As if we'd let this end..." Rogue replied.
"Agreed. I can't lose...for Lector's sake..." Together they summoned a little bit more and changed into a form far beyond their Dive. They now sport some kind of weird markings and their power was much more powerful than before.
"They can activate it by force?!" Makarov and everyone else watched with anticipation.
"Dragon Force." Mavis watched with surprise.
"That's the same form Sora and used at the Tower of Heaven!" Erza exclaimed.
"Quake before the third generation's true power." Minerva smirked.
"Stay back Rogue." Sting grinned as he walked forward, gaining a little confidence back. "I can take both of them on by myself."
"Come on! Let's see what you 'True' dragon slayers can do!" Sora folded his arms with an unamused expression on his face. This angered Sting greatly.
"I'll make you eat those words! Let's go Rogue!" Jumping up, the two of them glared at their opponents on the ground. "Take this! White/Shadow Dragon's Roar!"
'That's a huge one!' Sora and Natsu braced themselves as the combined roars came crashing down upon them, tearing the ground apart.
"Oh my goodness, the entire floor of the fighting arena has crumbled to bits. Both Fairy Tail members seemed to be enduring it well but it looks like they're being pressured by Sting." Chapati spoke as they watched them from the screen. Shaking their heads to get rid of the dizzy feeling of falling down a deep hole, Natsu and Sora looked up and tried to strike back but Sting blew them away before attacking them mercilessly, leaving no room for them to defend or rest.
"Damn it!" Sora growled as his punch was blocked and got kneed in the gut, the air rushing out of his lungs.
"Haha! You two are such pushovers!" Sting laughed as he threw him at Natsu, the two of them crashing against the ground in a tangle of arms and legs. "Take this! Holy Nova!" A burst of light exploded from his fists and enveloped the area. When it simmered down, Sora and Natsu were seen laying face down, unmoving. The crowds suddenly roared with approval, leaving the Fairy Tail members looking at one another in worry.
"In 7 years we became real dragon slayers." Rogue stated as he hopped down to join Sting. "The old generation's era is over."
"Natsu..." Happy whimpered.
"Come on, Sora!" Lucas shouted. "I know you can take more than that!"
"Lucas..." Kiki said in awe.
"You were strong...Natsu, Sora." Sting smiled as he turned back to normal, his dragon force appearance disappearing.
"Get up! You can hear our voices right?" Erza shouted with worry as the rest of the members in the guild added their own voices.
"Are they both down?!" Chapati asked as they waited for the final verdict.
"Waaaaait a minute." Sting and Rogue looked startled as Natsu hopped back to his feet, rubbing his arms. "that one stung." Looking over he knelt beside Sora and shook his shoulder. "Hey! Wake up,man! This is no time to be sleeping."
"I wasn't sleeping Natsu." He winced as he got to his feet, shaking some of the rubble from his hair. "I just got a kink in my neck." Twisting his head around he heard the satisfying pop and sighed with relief. "There! All better."
"How...?!" Rogue asked.
"Oh you see, we purposely allowed you two to attack us." Sora said as they stood grinning like fools. "That way we could assess and anticipate your attack patterns and habits."
"Right! Like the timing of your attacks, your pose when you're protecting yourself...and even the rhythm of your breathing." Natsu added.
"Ridiculous!" Sting spat, "I was using Dragon Force this entire time!"
"Yeah and it sure packs a wallop!" The fire dragon slayer shot back, "My whole body is tingling damn it! Anyways for example, when you attack you turn your pivot leg to 11 o'clock."
"Really? I thought it was 10 o'clock. You must be blind, bro." Sora looked at Natsu with confusion.
"It's 11." He said, folding his arms.
"I'm willing to accept 10:30 but it definitely wasn't 11." He tried to correct him but he just shook his head.
"It's 11 or 23. Either one will work!" This caused them to get into a little squabble much to the embarrassment of the Fairy Tail guild. Shoving Natsu into an old mine cart, Sora pulled a lever and watched as Natsu disappeared, too motion sick to do anything.
"Now that that's out of the way..." Sting and Rogue watched as Sora rotated his shoulders to warm up his muscles. Gesturing with his hand he smirked, "Come at me...both of you!"
"As if you could do anything by yourself." Sting then shot forward with high speed, which was even greater than before because of his Dragon Force "Hahh!" The White Dragon Slayer made a straight punch toward Sora's head, but the dragon slayer hybrid had already dodged underneath it and grabbed Sting arm with one hand, bringing the other back with his palm facing forward.
From there, Sora engulfed his fist with intense solar light and then thrusted it straight into Sting's gut. "Solar Dragon's Blazing Hammer!"
The white dragon slayer cried out in pain as Sora continued to grind it into his body, severely damaged the dragon scales around his stomach.
"Sting!" Rogue cried out in horror at his friend's roar of pain and tried to aid him, but before he could take a single step, Sora shoved harder and launch Sting away from him. As Sting flew across the battlefield, the ground underneath him was torn apart by the trailing vortex of wind and finally he was smashed into the wall behind him with such force that it crumbled to piece because of the strong impact.
"It appears I can." Sora said with amusement in his tone.
"Damn you!" Rogue then took a deep breath before releasing a large burst of shadows from his mouth "Shadow Dragon's Roar!" However, before Rogue could react, Sora was already behind him with his fist cocked back.
"You're full of openings." Sora cried before punching Rogue on his back, knocking him away in a strong shockwave that could be felt by everyone around the stadium. If it wasn't for their dragon scales, Sting and Rogue would have been knocked unconscious at that time "Is that all you got? Stand up and fight!"
Once the smoke and dust settled down, the audience gasped as they noticed that the Sabertooth dragons were getting beat down.
Sting and Rogue looked up slowly as Sora planted his foot down in front of them, the ground beneath his feet was reduced to dust in an instant. The power radiating around him was so intense that the entire audience held their breath, their chant of Sabertooth held stuck in their throats. Even the jeering Sabertooth team watched in fear and apprehension. "I'm going to show you how out-classed you really are!"
"This pressure...it's incredible...you can feel it from here." The Fairy Tail members watched the televised screen with excitement.
"Are you watching? Sabertooth?" He asked, making sure that his eyes were meeting those of Sabertooth, a smirk on his face."I hope you're ready...for what's about to happen."
"I have absolutely no memory of this kind of power." Rufus muttered as he touched the brim of his hat.
"He's bluffing." Orga snorted as he leaned against the railing. "There's no way..."
"Don't be stupid." Minerva cut in, locking her own gaze on the screen, her heart beating rapidly inside her chest. "He's...on a whole new level then those two."
-------------------------
Underground...
Once the mine cart came to a jerky stop, Natsu stumbled out on wobbly legs with his hands over his mouth. Leaning against the wall he stood there until the sickness washed over.
"Damn Sora...!" he looked up to where the battle rages. "Trying to have all the fun." 'Now then...' Looking around he started to panic. "How the hell do I get out of here?!" Wondering around he stumbled upon a place which made him freeze in his tracks. "W-what is this...?" He muttered as he saw skeletons of once giant creatures. "A graveyard...for dragons?"
-------------------------
Also watching from the sidelines is a mysterious figure in a hood, whom, upon seeing Sora, begins to cry. From his place atop the arena, and theirs just outside of it, Jellal, Ultear and Meredy all feel Zeref's dark presence once more, Jellal hurriedly pursuing it.
--------------------------
Above...
"D-d-don't you...dare look down...on us!" Sting growled as he and Rogue got back on their feet. "We're Sabertooth! Fiore's number 1 guild!"
"And so I will repeat what I said when you two underestimated my abilities..." Sora looked at them and gestured with his hand. "I am more than enough for the both of you. Bring it on!"
"Oh boy! Sora of Fairy Tail is challenging the two of them to a battle!" Chapati spoke as the crowd went wild. "Though we still have no idea where the other one went..."
"Take us both on, you're bluffing!" Sting said angrily. "Fighting Natsu and you is the only worthwhile thing here, not just oone!"
"I have no business with you." Rogue growled, "Let me fight Gajeel!" At this Sora's eyes hardened with fury, something within him just snapped.
"Just a substitute am I?" His spirit was roaring with ferocity from within. "Are you saying I'm not good enough?! You've got some nerve..."
'Now they pissed him off...' The Fairy Tail members cringed and knew that the two dragon slayers were in deep deep water.
"Dragon Force is the same as the dragons' power. Nothing excels it in this world!" Sting said as he and Rogue got back into their Dragon Force form. Forming a fist he flew at her but he raised his hand and stopped it...cold with one hand.
"Is that all you've got?" He asked, looking at him calmly and he glared back. "Wasn't it complete?"
"My power is complete. This is the power I used to kill Weisslogia!" Sting replied.
"I see..." Sora responded and closed his eyes, "Then I'll use 100% of this power," Immediately the hand that was blocking Sting's attack started to display solar light, "to fight for my friends who were laughed at," the ground began to melt under the intense temperature, "...mocked at... and most of all," by now Sora reopened his eyes to show a golden color. "humiliated and teased in front of everyone by the likes of you!" Pulling his golden fist back he punched Sting square in the face, every ounce of anger he had was focused on that one area so his punch was powerful.
"Sora, watch out! Behind you!" Jet shouted after Sting crashed into the wall, watching as Rogue came up behind him.
"Shadow Dragon's Roar!" Rogue unleashed a stream of black flames from his mouth.
"Solar Dragon's Roar!" Sora turned around swiftly with his own cheeks puffed up as the golden blast flew through, cutting the black flame in the middle before slamming into Rogue and pushed him into the opposite wall.
"That was nothing!" Sting roared as he shook off the pain from Sora's punch. Almost like dancing he allowed his instincts to take over, attacking and defending from his attackers. Sting's White Dragon's Roar was also blown away by the sheer power of the Solar Dragon's Roar. The audience held their breath as they watched the Twin Dragons get roughed up.
Both Dragon slayers got up and threw barrage of punches and kicks at Sora, who simply raised his hands and dodged them all, appearing to be not trying that hard in doing so.
"My turn." After a few seconds of letting them have the fight, Sora suddenly took a jump by pushing his hand on Sting and Rogue's wrists when the two dragon slayer tried to punch him, twisting his body around in the air and delivered two hard kicks to the side of their head, knocking them back slightly.
Rogue quickly recovered and suddenly appeared behind Sora, using his shadow travel power and going for a kick at the back of his head but much to everyone's shock and amazement, Sora ducked before planting a spinning kick on his stomach, sending him crashing him rolling on the ground.
"Rogue!"
"Never keep your eyes off the enemy, especially when you're facing me", stated Sora in a whisper after appearing behind the white dragon slayer, whose eyes were widened before he felt an excruciating pain in his back, result of Sora planting a hard golden punch at the back of his head, sending him flying towards the wall at high speeds.
'Shit! How could I lose focus in a middle of a fight?', the Sabertooth's dragon slayer thought while berating himself before Sora suddenly appeared in front of him.
Sora was about to give the next attack when suddenly Rogue appeared between him and his comrade, sending a strong upper cut to the Sora's jaw, which he dodged and had to jumped back several feet to avoid the shadow beams that shot out from the Shadow dragon slayer's fingertips.
"STING!" Rogue cried out for his partner as he brought his hand back, releasing an incredible amount of shadow from his fist.
"Y-YEAH." The White dragon slayer muttered and shakily stood up "Let's do this..." Sting made the same stance and unleashed all of his power into a massive orb of light, equal with Rogue's in power.
"Unison Raid?" Third Master of Fairy Tail stated in shock at what he was seeing.
"Their next attack will decide this fight." Mavis said as the entire stadium shook with the power of Sting and Rouge's spell. They then placed their palms together, as a third orb of united energy formed, growing immensely as more rage surged through their bodies.
"So be it then..." Sora said as he began concentrating his magic, he swipes his arms in a circular fashion, creating a powerful, and highly destructive, torrent of solar flares letting them roil around him. "Dragon Slayer Secret Art: ....!" Taking aim at Sting and Rogue a golden circle appeared before him.
"Holy Shadow Dragon's..." Sting and Rogue thrust their arms forward with their combined strength. "Flash Fang!" A giant cyclone of black and white energy zoomed towards him, destroying anything in its path.
'There's a wall that can't be destroyed with just power.' Mavis thought as the attack flew at Sora at blinding speed. 'However, there is a type of power that can destroy it, the power of feelings. Everyone here in this guild is cheering for her, putting their complete faith in her. The guild is a place to cultivate a person's feelings.'
"Soaring Solar Crusher!" Sora's eyes narrowed in determination as he unleashed the pent up energy. The attack flew through the circles and took the shape of a mighty dragon. With a roar it flew right into the middle of the cyclone, blasting it away before continuing towards Sting and Rogue. A huge explosion rocked the entire arena, a power that could possibly be felt across the country of Magnolia.
"Please excuse us as we try to get the camera working." Chapati said as the crumbling rocks and smoke was all that can be seen on the screen. "Thank you for waiting! And it looks like..."
"Frosh, I'm sorry..." Rogue whispered as he fell to the ground. "I can't see the bottom...of his power...I underestimated...him."
"Lector...he's too strong." Sting sank to his knees before falling to the ground as well. "I'm sorry...I couldn't keep my promise."
"Thi-Thi-Thi-Thi-" Chapati's voice stuttered as he watched them hit the ground simultaneously. "This is...FAIRY TAIL!" Sora lifted his head as he heard the roaring of his guild mates. "They beat the two dragons!"
Grabbing the injured slayers he made his way back up to the top, exploding from the hole much to their surprise. The audience gasped as he landed, kicking up dust from underneath his feet without breaking a sweat. Placing Sting and Rogue gently on the ground he deactivated his power as his eyes turn back to emerald green..
"I had lots of fun today." He spoke loud enough for them to hear, "When all this is over and you still wish to challenge me, you know where to go. I look forward to the time where we can fight again for fun." He showed his toothy grin to them as the audience whispered amongst each other.
"The winner is Fairy Tail! It is now number 1!" At this the crowd roared their hearts out, the mass amounts of Fairy Tail flags was phenomenal. "The 4th day of the Magical games ends here! You have one day to rest. The last battle will take place the day after tomorrow! The last day is a survival battle where all the members of each guild participate. Look forward to it!"
"I knew this would happen."
"I should have expected this..."
"Our target for the last day changed!" The guild masters from the other teams directed their attention to the loudest members in the audience. "Let's defeat Fairy Tail!" The members from the other team each had their own special target on the Fairy Tail team but then they looked into the arena because they just witnessed the power of a dragon. Sora watched as some of the medical team whisked Sting and Rogue away before looking up at their hungry eyes. For a minute they all swore his eyes flashed a different color and they tensed up as he grinned, showing off his fangs.
"COME ON!" Sora bellowed, his friends mirroring his expression as they smiled at one another before staring at their opponents. Together the Fairy Tail guild raised their arms high in the sky with their spirits alight with a burning flame, "WE ACCEPT YOUR CHALLENGE!"
"Who would've thought that they'd lose." Orga released a sigh as Frosch tried to consolidate Lector who was crying.
"Hehee. It was an interesting match." Rufus chuckled as he narrowed his eyes. "I memorized it all."
"Huhu! People will flock here for a while." Orga chuckled in response.
"Supposing they have the time to..." Minerva smirked as she gestured for them to follow her back to their own lodge. The master himself was beyond piss, scaring most of the audience members around him with just his glare.
---------------------------
In Mercurius, Yukino listens as a member of the army tells her of Sabertooth's loss, the ex-member commenting that she has no attachment to the guild any more, and that she is also not used to the title of "Sergeant". The man replies that for her to assist in the Eclipse Plan, a temporary status is required, and Yukino contemplates that idea of assisting in the plan, as well as Arcadios' social awkwardness for someone who is trying to save the world.
---------------------------
As Carla, in the sick bay, once again has her frightful premonition, Levy, Jet and Droy all visit Lucy, Levy happily exclaiming that if Fairy Tail keeps up their valiant effort, they might actually have a chance at winning. After the two talk for a bit, Levy wonders where Gajeel is, the Dragon Slayer himself still walking below the arena, wondering why it would be filled with Dragon skeletons.
-------------------------
At the time, We were certain we would win. The last day was a violent battle. Do you remember, Lucy?
Then, on July 7th....We lost to destiny.
From a writing desk in a country covered in flames, a scarred and crying Levy pens a note to Lucy during the Grand Magic Games, detailing that on the 7th of July, the country lost to fate. Wondering if Lucy remembers any of the happenings of the fourth of July, Levy scribes that many people she loved died, eventually breaking down and pleading for someone to help her.
----------------------------
As the moon rises over Crocus, Jellal follows the hooded figure, and, when he believes they are away from prying eyes, removes his bandanna to reveal his face, approaching and asking them to do the same. As the figure relents and turns to face him, Jellal can only stare on in utter disbelief at who they are.
Well, that's a wrap for this chapter! I hope you guys enjoyed the fight too. Also, I was wondering if you guys wanted to me to write a quick chapter of Future Sora and Future Natsu fighting the 10,000 dragons. Let me know what you guys think. Comment on your favorite parts and don't forget to vote!
Be sure to review. Until then, see ya!!!
