----------------------

High in the sky...

"Look at all those monsters..." Wendy muses as she glanced down at the large amounts of creatures parading towards Margaret Town in all sorts of shapes and sizes. "All of this, heading for our beloved town..."

"Let's leave the town's defense to Lyon and the rest of them." Chelia told her with a determined expression on her face. "Besides, we have the help from Sora, Natsu, Lexi and Lucy."

"Our main objective is to get to Orochi's main army...and take down the Monster Tamer." Carla reminded them as she rode the wind like a pro.

"I'm sorry, Happy..." Chelia apologized to the blue Exceed that was carrying her. He commented that she was light in weight, even lighter than Lucy so it didn't bother him too much. "That's not it...I...wanted to protect the town with my own powers but..."

"Chelia..." Wendy gazed at her friend before spotting what they were looking for, a large group of figures located on top of a nearby mountain. "There they are!"

"That's..." The main army of Orochi looked up in unison to see figures falling towards them at fast speed, their legs outstretched to connect with a few faces. "the Sky Sisters!" The two didn't let up their attack as they followed up their dazzling entrance with a Sky Dragon's Roar accompanied by a Sky God's Bellow.

"You're having a hard time with two little girls!?" One of the members yelled after the large cyclone of howling winds died down, watching those less fortunate grovel in pain. "Buck up!"

"Oh my...It's not only two of them..." Another voice spoke up and Carla appeared to assist with the battle, or perhaps to get a taste of action herself in her human form. "White Moon!"

"Gwahh!" The man yelped as the Exceed performed a cartwheel and kicked him on the head with her foot, knocking him out like a light. After watching her display her prowess, Happy felt the urge to show the fruit of his training as he pulled a fish out from his bag and placed it on the ground. Pressing his paws together on its chest, it looked as though the Exceed was performing some kind of CPR.

"Go hide yourself somewhere else!" Carla snapped at him, feeling some kind of pity for the blue Exceed before flinging a fist at the nearest guy. "You'll only get in the way!"

"That's really mean Carla." Happy whimpered, feeling like he had failed her and proceeded to draw his knees up towards his chest.

"I'll take down the Monster Tamer!" Chelia announced as she forced her way through the ranks and ignored Wendy's warnings to be cautious.

"This smell..." The sky dragon slayer thought as her nose picked up a fragrance that seemed familiar in a way that she couldn't put her finger on. Shaking her head she quickly followed her friend forward and continued to watch her back for her.

-----------------------

"The monsters have reached the town!"

"Just how many are there!" The rest of Lamia Scale left behind in town stood firm as the waves of creatures stomped through the streets in the distance.

"We'll protect these people." Lyon said firmly with Lucy by his side, his hands clenched in fists. The Celestial mage stood confidently among the ranks with a key held firmly in her grasp. "We won't let the monsters advance deeper into the town!"

"Right!" Lexi agreed.

"AAAAAAAHHHHH!" Natsu's voice could be heard as the dragon slayer rushed at the advancing army before anyone else could make their move. "Damn Happy thieeeeeeeeefffffff! You're not getting awaaaaaay!"

"Natsu!" Lucy called after him as the first line of monsters rushed towards their prey, their lips pulled back over their teeth.

"I got it!" Sora called out to her and followed after Natsu.

"Alright! We'll stay and help put Lyon and the others!" Lucas yelled as he and Kiki went into their Neko Forms.

"Move it! You flea bags!" Natsu roared and without activating their magic, he and Sora scattered all the monsters that stood in their way. Soon the air was filled with monster bodies as the dragon slayers zoomed off into the distance to follow Happy's scent.

"Woah."

"They're the real monsters here!" Tobi barked as the Lamia Scale members stood there in awe.

"Don't let down your guard!" Lyon shouted as the monsters who managed to dodge the dragon slayer's rampage and swarmed the rest of the guild members. "Incoming!"

"Sliver Dragon's Wing Attack!" Lexi shouted and used sliver 'wing' to knock away any monsters that came near her.

"Here I go!" Lucy proclaimed and held the golden key high into the air. "Open, Gate of the Lion! Loki!"

"The knight in shining armor, reporting for duty!" The orange-haired celestial spirit said with a smirk on his face.

"And..." Lucy maneuvered the key so that she stuck it in her chest, the power of Loki flowing rapidly through her body. "Stardress! Leo Form!"

"Ohhh!?"

"Whoa!" Lexi and Kiki said in awe.

"Erza's Magic!?" The members of Lamia Scale gasped as the Celestial mage was standing gallantly in an elegant and frilled black ball gown. There was a slit up her left leg that was tied with a gold sash that sat around her hips. A black, frilled choker sits around her neck, and a ribbon with the mark of the Leo zodiac emblazoned upon it falls between her breasts.

The accompanying sleeves of the dress are detached, sitting on Lucy's upper arm and falling to her forearm, where they flare outward. Around the bodice of her dress is more golden trim, curving inward under her bust. Additionally, Lucy sported black heels on her feet and her hair was now tied up in a quaint bun, decorated with a black flower. Much like how she donned Aquarius' dress and had the spirit's sign on her skin, she now sported Leo's zodiac sign upon her right breast.

"It's beautiful, Lucy!" Loki praised, swooning at her with heart-shaped eyes.

"Sora nearly had a nosebleed with he saw her in this dress." Lucas said. "Not to mention, this was one of the Star Dresses she used to stay on par with him."

"Not exactly like Erza's but it has some of the Celestial spirit's powers in it..." Lucy replied to one of the Lamia Scale member's question. "In any case, I'll be fighting too!"

"That's really promising!" Lyon smirked and together with a more powerful Lucy, Lexi and the two exceeds, the Lamia Scale guild engaged in battle with the monsters.

--------------------------

Back to the outskirts...

"Monster Tamer..." Chelia mumbled as she continued to attack her opponents left and right, Wendy not too far behind her and the sky dragon slayer just blew away a couple guys with a powerful roar. "Monster Tamer...Monster Tamer...Monster Tamer..." She looked above the sea of heads and her eyes focused on the man with snake-eyes near the back. "There he is!"

"Watch out, Chelia!" Wendy shouted, tackling the red-head to the ground as an attack soared over their heads.

"Wendy." Chelia breathed out, realizing that her life had been saved as she stared up at the other girl. "Sorry for being distracted."

"Is it my turn now?" A mysterious man who was standing beside the intended target asked. The Monster Tamer says that the two girls weren't worthy of his power but the man dismissed him easily. "I've seen that little girl before...along with that other brat..."

"M-Master...?!" The snake-eyed man muttered as the man approached the two.

"I wonder...if she can fly..." Using his Magic, the ground underneath him to crumble and he brought everyone to their feet, friend and foe alike.

"Bluenote Stinger!" Carla gasped when she realized who he was before wincing as Gravity took a hold of her body. "Ngghhh!"

"My body..."

"Won't move..." Both Chelia and Wendy cried out as they fell to the ground, loosing their control over their own bodies.

"There isn't anyone that could move under my gravitational powers..." Bluenote sneered as he glared at his opponents, arms crossed over his chest.

"Master...! You're overdoing things!" The Monster Tamer spoke up as he struggled to a kneeling position.

"We'll start with..." Bluenote's gaze went from Wendy to Chelia and narrowed in on the red-head immediately. "...that little brat."

"Chelia!" Wendy cried out in worry as the red-head was lifted off the ground by the back of her shirt. However her gaze softened when she realized who it was that showed up just in time.

"I found you!" Out of breath but grinning madly like he just finished 1st place in a run, Natsu stood in the middle of the fight with the Lamia Scale member in his grasp. "I won't let you go."

"Do you guys need some help?" Sora asked with a wave.

"Sora! Natsu!"

"Natsu! Sora!" Wendy and Happy exclaimed in happiness at the two dragon slayer. The Orochi's Fin members stood there in shock as they realized that the dragon slayers remained upright even under the influence of their Master's magic.

"How dare you steal Happy from me." Natsu stated plainly and in a stern voice, focusing his attention to the red-haired midget in his hands.

"I'm sorry..." She apologized as she kept her hands in front of her.

"Natsu! Now's not the time for this!" Carla snapped irritably from where she laid still pinned on the ground.How can this boys be so oblivious to the atmosphere? Honestly...

"By the way, why are you guys on the ground?" Sora asked, making sure his friends were okay.

"One of those men is here!" Wendy explained with a scowl on her face. "The one that caused you, the Master and Cana so much pain on Tenrou Island...The man that Gildarts fought against."

"Hmm?" Natsu blinked as he processed that information. Turning his head slowly he soon found himself locking eyes with Bluenote and he frowned. "I don't remember him."

"Oh yeah...him" Sora said with narrowed eyes as he remember his fight with the mage before he smirked. "Perfect. Now I can have a rematch."

'I've seen him before...' Bluenote thought with a frown of his own, his eyes staring deep into the dragon slayers' fiery orbs and emeral one. Images and memories from Tenrou Island flashed through his mind and that's when his eyes widened in surprise.'Ah, the orange haired small fry from then...But...Why the hell do I get so annoyed with him!'

"Gargh!"

"Urgh!"

"Sir!" All around the members of Orochi's Fin yelled as their Master's magic overwhelmed them. This was the first time they bared witness to his rage and Bluenote was not one to get riled up easily.

'This one is dangerous!' Bluenote flew at the dragon slayer with his fists pulled back, oblivious to the shouts of his own men. 'I must get rid of him at all costs! "Die!"

'Here he comes...' Sora thought as his body was subjected to the man's gravitational magic. "Hey, bro! Let me take this one! I've got a score to settle."

"No prob!" Keeping an arm wrapped tightly around Chelia, he clenched his left hand into a fist and unleashed his flames directly towards the ground. "He's all yours!"

"He rose up...with his flames!"

"Impossible!" Everyone gasped as they watched a tower of flames sprang up into the air like a geyser.

"This isn't the end for Fairy Tail!" Sora proclaimed as he kept his gaze focused on Bluenote. "Don't kill us off just like that!"

'Fairy Tail?! That's right!' Bluenote could see Gildarts' spirit shine through Sora and grinned. "I'll deal...wi...th..." He didn't finish his sentence as Sora unleashed a massive Solar Dragon's Roar from his mouth. It was so massive that it blew a massive chunk of the land and left a large sizzling crater. When he felt that it was enough, he cut off the blast and waited for retaliation, smoke still exited the corners of his mouth.

The Master of Orochi's Fin stood with his clothes burned and trembling legs. Letting out little wheezes noises from his lips, he fell over in defeat with his eyes rolled to the back of his head.

"Whoa!" Natsu said in awe.

"Aye!" Happy agreed.

"I think that was a little too overboard." Sora said with hands behind his head."

'Only one attack..!?' Carla stared at the destruction the fire dragon slayer caused with his power, surprised and startled by what she saw.'That's impossible...!'

'Just how much stronger has Sora and Natsu become over the past year?' Wendy thought as Natsu continued to interrogate Chelia, reprimanding her for thievery as the poor girl covering up her top that had been burnt off by the slayer's flames.

"Natsu, why don't you take a look around instead of lecturing her..." Happy stepped in, pointing with a paw to the side. "The enemy's still there..."

Sora cracked his knuckles. "You guys wanna dance too or...."

"We surrender." The Monster Tamer stated weakly as he held up a white flag tied to a stick as the rest of the members shivered and trembled in their shoes.

-----------------------

After the battle...

Tying up the enemies and sending them off to prison, the group trudged back to Margaret Town to the smiling members of Lamia Scale who congratulated them on a job well done.

"The monsters have all retreated..." Yuka announced as they did a final sweep of the area. A couple members dashed out to send letters to the citizens who were sent out, telling them that the threat has been taken care of and that they can start returning back to their home.

"Thanks for the help." Lyon added with a smile, expressing his gratitude to the group.

"Glad to be of help." Lexi nodded.

"I haven't even gone full on berserk yet..." Natsu frowned with disappointed, crossing his arms over his chest and stuck his bottom lip out like a young naive child.

"Yeah, that wasn't even considered a warm up...." Sora muttered.

"Where's Wendy and Chelia?" Lucy asked, noticing that the two of them weren't present in the room. "Did they go to the restroom?"

"3 more years down the road and they'll be in my scope..." Loki smirked with a blush on his face before Lucy slapped him with her hand.

"They have something to discuss..." Yuka replied with a knowing smile. On a hill outside the town, the two girls sat together. The red-haired girl was venting her frustration, explaining that she wanted to prove to Wendy that the sky dragon slayer didn't need Sora or Natsu but that she only needed her. However she just chuckled and states that the duo messed up that opportunity for her.

"You got to go with them, Wendy." Chelia said after thinking about the situation for a minute. "You love them, don't you?"

"Huuuuh!" Wendy's face turned a shade of red in embarrassment as she tried to explain her actual feelings. "N...No...that isn't it...I idolize them...They're something like brothers to me..."

"That's love too, you know..." Chelia chuckled before looking out into the distance. "You'll regret it if you don't go with him...Sora said so himself...that it wasn't the end for Fairy Tail..."

"Chelia..."

"And it's because they loved you...and Fairy Tail so much that they came all this way for you, Wendy..."

"I..."

"Be honest with yourself, Wendy..." Chelia tucked a strand of hair behind the sky dragon slayer's ear. "We'll still be friends even if we're in different guilds..." Interlocking their fingers, she leaned her head close till they were touching.

"Chelia..." Wendy sniffled before nuzzling close, wrapping her arms around the red-head in a comforting hug. "Yeah...we're definitely friends." Soon the dusk turned into dawn and the Fairy Tail mages prepared to depart from Lamia Scale. "Thank you for taking such good care of me..."

"Be well, Wendy..."

"I suppose I should show my gratitude too..."

"Carla..." Wendy frowned at the Exceed's lack of mannerism before bowing her head. "I...really don't know what to say... making these decisions so selfishly..." She paused to wipe away some tears. "But..."

"Oh come on," Carla scolded her lightly. "Straighten yourself up..."

'So Wendy and Carla...didn't forget about Fairy Tail at all...' Lucy thought as one by one the Lamia Scale members said their farewells. They wished the group well on getting their guild back while Toby and Ooba comically promised to carry on the "Sky Sisters" name, much to everyone's chagrin and disgust.

"Be well, Wendy!" Chelia called out as Wendy responded in return before walking away with her Fairy Tail friends. Once they disappeared she couldn't help her lips from trembling.

"You can cry if you want to now..." Lyon advised as he patted her head, consoling her in his own way.

"I won't cry!" She said with a bright smile even though tears threatened to fall from the corners. "Because I want Fairy Tail to come back too!"

---------------------

On the road...

Wendy couldn't help but sob after she had to split from her friend, her lips trembling uncontrollably. She was crying so hard that the front of her dress was drenched in her tears alone. Natsu plodded ahead of the group with his arms crossed behind his head in a nonchalant manner while Sora, Lucy, and Lexi walked beside her.

"How long are you planning to cry, Wendy?" Ever the one that doesn't care about feelings at a time like this, Carla looked at the train wreck of a dragon slayer with her paws on her hips. She didn't feel like walking in her human form so she trekked across the rigid terrain in her Exceed form. 

"She's right. It's gonna make your eyes look puffy." Kiki told her.

"But...when Fairy Tail disbanded...everyone at Lamia Scale treated us so nicely..." The sky dragon slayer explained before openly sobbing again. "And...I got to meet you guys...waaaaah!"

'Whoa, tears of joy and sadness both at the same time!' Lucy cringed, both out of surprise and awkwardness because she didn't know the best way on how to console the young girl.

Lexi just hugged her and rubbed her head. "It's great to have you back, Wendy."

"This is only the beginning!" Natsu grinned as he looked over his shoulder at the three girls. 

"We're gonna get everyone back!" Sora added with a fist clenched in the air.

"Yes!" Wendy chirped and quickly wiped away her tears with the back of her hands. "Absolutely!"

"Hey, where will we be going next?" Happy asked as he looked at Lucy for guidance.

"Let's see..." The blonde looked at her notes with a thoughtful expression. "There's this village east of here called Rainfall Town..."

"Rain...?" Happy questioned, tilting his head to the side.

"Sounds very interesting." Lucas said.

"Yeah...apparently, it rains all the time in that village..." Lucy explained before placing a finger to her cheek in a thoughtful manner. "Could it be..."

"Well there's only one way to find out!" Sora said with a wide grin. "Let's go!"
