Chapter 25: Fire and Water
The camera opens with Natsu and Shiki slamming their fist coated with their powers into the Jupiter Cannon barrel. But neither one was having any success. They then noticed the cracked areas created from Way Big's weakened cosmic blast and tried punching there; even then no luck in breaking it.
Natsu: (growls in frustration) Crap! We're barely scratching the surface!
Shiki: (angry) Yeah! (punch the cracked areas again) Even my Gravity is doing nothing!
Happy: I guess we're just gonna have to destroy it from the inside, huh?
Natsu ceased his hitting as his face brightened in realization. He looked back at Happy and smiled.
Natsu: Good idea, Happy!
Shiki: Right! (run down the barrel) No time to lose!
The trio ran down the dark, grooved tunnel toward the bright light at the end. When they reached the other end, they were in a massive room. In the center was a huge, glass sphere with a grayish tint. Circled around it on the walls were four smaller red, blue, yellow, and green spheres. Situated on the ceiling was a big clock with Roman numeral numbers.
The minute hand on the clock moved.
???: Eleven minutes until Jupiter fires.
A synthesized female voice said over the PA.
Happy: They must be using that magic lacrima to collect magical energy.
Natsu: Yeah, but why do they need one as big as that?
Happy: Cause Magical Focusing Cannons don't fire regular ammunition, instead they fire concentrated magical power.
Shiki: So they're using magic as ammo?
Happy: Yup! So like Rebecca's guns.
Natsu: I didn't get most of that. But all we have to do is destroy that thing, don't we?
???: I can't allow that.
The trio looked down to see a young man with his black and white hair stylized in a Japanese-styled top knot. He wore a reddish-orange coat with red fur around his collar, black pants, and black boots. Strapped to the black belt on his waist was a katana. This was Totomaru, one of the Element 4.
Shiki: Who is that?
Happy: A guard?
Natsu: Doesn't matter! (leaped toward him, his fists covered in flames) Anyone who gets in my way is going down!
Totomaru remained standing still, a superior smile on his face.
Totomaru: I don't think so.
Natsu: I don't care what you think! Get out of my way!
Suddenly, Natsu was cut off guard as he was struck in the face by his own fiery fist!
Shiki: What the heck?! Why did you hit yourself?!
Natsu: I didn't! My fist just went crazy!
He gained control of himself in midair and landed on his feet unharmed. Natsu glared back at the ninja-garbed man.
Totomaru: It seems to me that you are getting in your own way.
The Fire Dragon Slayer continued to stare down his opponent but was brought back to reality when the clock's minute hand shifted again.
???: Ten minutes until Jupiter fires.
Natsu: Move it, buddy! I gotta cannon to demolish!
Happy: All you have to do is shatter the giant lacrima and it won't be able to fire anymore.
Totomaru: You can certainly try. But I won't let you.
Natsu's fists were shrouded by fire, his ferocity growing stronger.
Natsu: I'm running out of time! Shut up and let me do my thing!
Natsu crouched low and jumped into the air, his flaming left fist cocked back. However, before Natsu could get to him, the Dragon Slayer punched himself again and sent himself careening to the side. Happy flew to him in concern.
Happy: You okay?
Natsu quickly got up and rubbed the sore side of his face.
Natsu: Yeah...I did it again. What was that?
Shiki: Don't worry, I'll handle this guy! You focus on destroying the lacrima!
Shiki leaped towards him while his fist glowed with the light of his Ether Gear.
Shiki: Magimech Attack: Gravity Fist!
Shiki brought the attack down on Totomaru, who was slammed into the ground by the force of his attack. Totomaru groaned as he could feel the weight behind the attack.
Natsu: I'll show you. (lets out a yell and charged at the Phantom mage)
Happy: Hey, did you hear what Shiki said?!
Suddenly, a reddish-orange magic circle appeared in front of him. As a result, the flames in Natsu's hands began to make him spin around and punched Shiki by accident. The spinning threw him off course and hurdled into the wall.
Shiki: Ow! Hey, what was that for?! I thought we're on the same side!
Natsu: That wasn't me! What is going on!
Totomaru: Fools! I am Totomaru and I have complete control over the element of fire.
Natsu growled as he picked himself back up.
Natsu: Wait, I bet you're one of those whatcha'ma call it five guys, right?
Happy: Geez, Natsu! They're called the Element 4! How could you not even get the number part right?!
Totomaru: Yes, and any form of fire is my plaything to do with as I please.
Shiki: No way!
Natsu: (muttered) You gotta be kidding me.
Totomaru: held out his hands. It doesn't matter if it is natural or magical, all fire will bend to my command alone.
Natsu: Hate to break it to ya but you're not controlling mine!
Totomaru: (smirked) This isn't going to go well for you my dear fire and gravity wizard.
All of a sudden, the colored lacrima balls on the walls began to illuminate brightly as magic power collected inside of them. Then, magical energy flowed out from the smaller spheres and into the much larger one in the center of the room.
Natsu and Shiki gasped while Totomaru only chuckled.
Happy: Oh no! It's starting to activate again!
???: Five minutes until Jupiter fires.
Happy: Hurry guys! The Jupiter Cannon is almost ready to fire again!
Shiki: Control fire huh? (smirk) Hey! Zoromaru!
Totomaru: It's Totomaru!
Shiki: Never mind that! You say you control fire, right?
Totomaru: Yes, what of it?
Shiki: Bet you can't control it when someone uses Gravity on it!
Totomaru: Wanna bet?
Then, another reddish-orange magic circle appeared in front of him.
Totomaru: Blue Fire!
A blast of blue flames discharged from Totomaru's magic circle straight toward Shiki who put out his hand and used his Ether Gear redirecting it at Totomaru.
Totomaru: (shocked) What?!
He tried to send it back to Shiki, but it didn't work forcing, Totomaru to dodge it.
Totomaru: Impossible!
Shiki: (grin) Looks like you lost the bet! Natsu! Time for you to land a hit on this guy!
Natsu: You got it!
Natsu leaped at Totomaru while engulfing his fist in fire, all while Shiki thrust his palm out towards him. Totomaru brought his magic circle to have Natsu punch himself, but Shiki's gravity kept it from happening, and soon Natsu struck him in the face with a fiery fist.
Totomaru: Tch! So it's you. Fairy Tail's Dragon Slayer. This isn't going to work out well for either of us, is it?
Natsu: Was! Now with Shiki's Gravity I can hit you all I want!
Totomaru: Even so, we're both impervious to fire attacks if it won't for the gravity boy.
Said Gravity Boy struck with a uppercut kick to the stomach, while Natsu with the help struck him down to the ground with a fiery kick.
Natsu: Fire Dragon Claw!
Totomaru: Orange Fire!
An inferno of orange colored flames blasted out from Totomaru's magic circle and headed straight for Natsu. But the Dragon Slayer stood tall with a toothy smirk on his face.
Natsu: You call that an attack? Well, I call it dinner!
Then Natsu inhaled the fire; to him this fire tasted absolute gross.
Natsu: (disgust) UGH...nasty!
As he cried it out he began to roll across the floor, rubbing his tongue to get the taste of that horrendous fire out of his mouth.
Totomaru: (laughed in amusement) Tastes like a rag soaked in spoiled milk, doesn't it?
Natsu stood up and got face-to-face with Totomaru, his eyes burning with indignation.
Natsu: (growl) That was a dirty trick!
Totomaru: And having someone altering your gravity isn't?
???: One minute until Jupiter fires.
Happy grabbed the side of Natsu's face and began to pull on him.
Happy grabbed the side of Natsu's face and began to pull on him.
Happy: C' mon Natsu! You and Shiki have gotta hurry!
Natsu: Let go!
Natsu charged at Totomaru again. He threw a right hook and a powerful kick at his opponent, but Totomaru was quick to dodge each attack.
Totomaru: So you wanna fight without using magic? (leaped back and landed on top of a huge apparatus of cogs on that side of the room) Well that's fine by me! My katana is ready!
In a blur, he appeared right in front of Natsu and slashed his blade at him. The Dragon Slayer was quick to jump back and dodge the attack. Totomaru appeared in front of him again and swiped the blade at him, but Natsu leaped into the air to perform a backflip.
Totomaru was wise to this as he crouched low and jumped up at Natsu, his blade reared back for an attack. However, he was unprepared when Natsu kicked his sword out of his hand. The katana went flying upward and struck the main lacrima ball, cracks forming around the blade as it embedded itself into the sphere.
Natsu smirked whilst Totomaru only frowned.
Totomaru: You think you're so smooth. A little ding like that won't destroy a giant lacrima.
Natsu: Maybe not but now that you're sword-less, which means I got the upper hand!
He ignited his fists with fire and charged at his enemy. He launched a right and left hook but Totomaru dodged or sidestepped each attack. Totomaru vanished and appeared behind Natsu.
Totomaru: (annoyed) How many times do I have to tell you that won't work?
He then held up his middle and index finger. As a result, Natsu nearly punched himself in the face with his flaming fist. However, Shiki's began to spin him in the air with his gravity and with it hit Totomaru in the stomach who looked at Shiki with an annoyed look on his face.
Shiki: Forget me?
Totomaru: Why you!
Meanwhile, outside in the courtyard, the Fairy Tail wizards continued their onslaught against the phantom soldiers. They were easy to destroy; however, if they touched you for even an instant, they could weaken your life force.
Though a big number were taken out of the fight due to a phantom touching them, there was still a good fraction left standing. However, if Erza hadn't been there leading them, things would've been a lot tougher.
Erza had Re-Quipped into her Heaven's Wheel Armor. Erza flew into the air and summoned multiple blades around her.
Erza: Dance, my blades!
Suddenly, the swords began to spin around her at rapid speeds.
Erza: Circle Sword!
The blades formed a disc formation and launched forward, slicing many phantoms at once as they dissipated into nothingness. Erza descended and gently landed back on the ground.
Macao: Nice job, Erza!
Before she could respond though, her attention was then grabbed by the priming of the Jupiter Cannon. Bluish-black energy was already beginning to coalesce around the end of the barrel.
Elsie: Not good. (slash through a Shade with a sword) What is taking them so long?!
(with Natsu, Shiki, and Happy)
Happy: OH NO!!! We're dead meat! It's gonna fire again!
Shiki: Not if we have anything to say about it!
Shiki then looked at Natsu who nodded at him, soon the two of them launched themselves at Totomaru.
Shiki: With only...
Natsu: One minute left...
Shiki: You'll excuse us to...
Natsu & Shiki: BEAT YOU!!!!
With a yell from the two of them, the fire and gravity around them began to warp around them. Shocking Totomaru.
Totomaru: (shocked) WHAT?!?!
The fire surrounding Natsu and Shiki became so bright that Totomaru was forced to back up and look away. Soon a massive ball of fire mixed with the light of Shiki's gravity appeared.
Totomaru: I don't believe fire and gravity are merging as one! Could it... are they performing a Unison Raid?!
Shiki and Natsu: TAKE THIS!!! GRAVITY FLARE!!!
The ball of fire and gravity was launched at Totomaru who couldn't do anything to stop and soon it collided with him and then the core itself. And when it did explode.
Outside, the Fairy Tail wizards' attention was grabbed as the Jupiter Cannon ignited in a bluish-black conflagration, destroying the cannon barrel in the process. Everyone began to cheer in joy from the sight of the demolished super-weapon.
Bisca: Hey! Check it out! They blew it up!
Alzack: Yeah, they did, The Jupiter Cannon's been destroyed just in time!
Erza: (thoughts) Well done!
Elsie: Haha! Take that you rusted old crow!
All of a sudden, Erza and Elsie both gasped as a cold chill raced down their spine. They didn't know what the cause was, but they had a feeling that something bad was going to happen.
(back to Natsu, Shiki, and Happy)
In the wreckage of the cannon room, smoke was hazing off the floors whilst piles of rubble lay scattered everywhere. Totomaru laid on the ground in pain while Shiki, Natsu and Happy were near him.
Natsu: I guess he's just a bunch of embers!
Shiki: Yeah. And now we shut down the cannon.
Happy: (jump in the air) Aye sirs!
Totomaru managed to get on one of his knees and clenched his fists and scowled at the three. Before he could remark, however, he lost his balance as the building shook violently. All of a sudden, Phantom's Headquarters began to break apart and reassemble. In the room with Natsu, Shiki, Happy, and Totomaru, the floor was tilting at a steep angle.
Natsu: Hey now, what the heck is going on?!
Happy: The whole building is tilting!
Shiki: It's like its coming to life!
Totomaru: (shocked) He's awakening it right now?! But there's no horizontal stabilization here!
Natsu: (blink) Stabilia-what?
The building shook again, throwing the trio off balance and onto the floor. Totomaru quickly stood up though and grinned wickedly at Natsu and Shiki.
Totomaru: You Fairy Tail-ers are through! Phantom's Giant will slaughter you!
Shiki: Phantom's Giant?
(with Y/N's group)
Jetray and Dreadwing landed onto a balcony, placing Rebecca, Robo-Happy, Gray and Elfman back on their feet. In a flash of green and blue, Jetray and Dreadwing transformed back to Y/N and Braedey and stood by them. They were late getting to Phantom's HQ, mainly because they were attacked by a pack of phantom troops flying around the building.
Braedey: Looks like they destroyed the Jupiter Cannon just in time.
Y/N Although, they were cutting it a bit too close.
Robo-Happy: (in Rebecca's arms) Aye sir!
Without warning, the entire building began to shake violently. They stumbled and tried to regain their balance. Y/N grabbed hold of the balcony railing to support himself as the part of the huge castle they were on broke away and shifted into a new position.
Rebecca: What the?! Why's the building shaking?!
Braedey: An earthquake?
Robo-Happy: No. It feels like the building is moving!
Elfman: No way, they're awakening the Giant.
Gray: Not good.
Rebecca: Giant?
Elfman: It's Phantom's ultimate weapon. They're transforming their headquarters into a giant warrior.
Braedey: Transforming their headquarters?! You mean something like a Cybertronian?
Y/N: As cool as that sounds, we have to find Natsu and Shiki. I think the cannon room...or what's left of it anyway...is that way!
In the courtyard of the Fairy Tail guild hall, the wizards all looked up in shock and horror. If they were stupefied when Y/N changed into Way Big, they were now blown away as the structure of Phantom Lord HQ shifted into an enormous, stone robot with broad spiked shoulders and a horned head. Countless numbers of phantom troops flew around the giant rocky robot in a ring formation.
This was Phantom Lord's ultimate weapon, the Super Mage Giant Phantom MK II.... Though terrifying, the name could use some work.
Cana: (weaky) No way, you've got to be kidding me.
Erza: The Giant?! Phantom's most powerful weapon!
She began to wonder if this was the source of the chill from earlier.
Jose: Kneel before me you brats! Or you will fall victim to my wrath. Savor your last moments because I will soon end your pathetic lives.
Bisca: A Giant and ghosts. How are we supposed to handle this?
Elsie: Like before! We fight against the ghosts while the others inside deal with the robot!
Elsie then glowed and with a flash of light stood her in Heaven's Wheel Armor.
Wakaba: She can Requip like Erza?!
Ur: What do you expect? They are sisters after all.
Elsie: Erza! Together!
Erza: Right!
Both of them in the same armor headed towards the Shades and so did the Shades, but both Erza and Elsie began to have swords forming around them and soon launched them at them.
Erza & Elsie: TWIN CIRCLE SWORD!!!
Two waves of swords in a circle headed towards the Shades forming a x shape destroy many Shades in the process.
Fairy Tail: HOLY CRAP, THEY'RE AWESOME!!!
Lucy: Amazing.... (look at her closed hand) I have to fight too.
She opened her hand to reveal that Rebecca had given her keys. She then took Virgo's and held it up.
Lucy: OPEN! Gate of the Maiden! Virgo!
Virgo appeared in front of Lucy.
Virgo: How may I serve you, Princess?
Lucy: Virgo, lend me your help so I can protect this place!
Virgo: As you wish. But......first I must ask you something.
Lucy: And that is?
Virgo: Do you truly laid with the Prince?
Lucy: (blush) What?! How did you know that?!
Virgo: So it's true then? You did lay with the Prince?
Lucy: (blush) It's not like that?! Wait, why did you call Y/N a Prince?
Virgo: Because. (put her hands on her blushing creeks) he is quite handsome.
Y/N: ACHOO!!!
Rebecca: Great! I guess you catched a cold from jumping into the water!
Y/N: No! I thought I heard someone talking about me.
Rebecca: Sure you did. But afterwards I want you to take a reading of your temperature! Got it mister!
Y/N: Y-Yes ma'am!
Lucy: (sweat drop) Well, now I know.
Virgo: Yes. (starry eyes) I hope he will punish me if I help!
Lucy: Why would you want him to punish you?!
Elsie: (wide eyes while muttering) Boy.... Sister would love her.
Erza: Just focus on these phantoms for now! We'll let Natsu, Y/N, Gray, and Elfman handle the Giant!
Wakaba: Sure, the last six can handle it. But what about Natsu's...
Macao: Motion sickness.
After that statement, everyone groaned in exasperation as their faces paled considerably.
Elsie: Whoever made this Dragon Slayer magic must be a major idiot if they never thought of that happening!
(back to Natsu, Shiki, and Happy)
In the wreckage of the cannon room, Natsu was lying on his stomach, dizzy and motion-sick. He looked ready to vomit any second. Happy was by his side, nudging him to get up.
Happy: C' mon Natsu! You gotta get up!
Totomaru quickly appeared above a pile of rocks a few meters away from the duo.
Totomaru: What's the matter? Do you get motion sickness? Looks like you can't eat fire now, can you? (held out his middle and index fingers and crossed his arms in front of him) Well then, time for me to finish you off! (a rust-colored magic circle appeared in front of him)
Happy: (gasped in fear) Natsu!
Totomaru: Prepare to die, Dragon Slayer!
He then was punched square in the face by Shiki who had a deadpan look on his face.
Shiki: (deadpan) Do you forget about me?
With that, Totomaru was knocked out. Y/N's group then arrived at the scene.
Braedey: Looks like we weren't needed after all.
Elfman: A real man never strikes down his foe, when they are not able to fight back!
Y/N: At least that's the fire element taken care of. Nice work, Shiki.
Shiki: (smiles) Thanks! But what do we do about Natsu?
They all turn to see Natsu on the ground as both Happy's poked him with a stick.
Gray: What was that, man? That's just sad.
Elfman: If you were a real man you'd make the Giant motion-sick of you.
Y/N: Seriously? He just wrecked the Jupiter Cannon with Shiki, and you're giving him crap?
Natsu: (leaps up) I heard that Snowflake!!!
(wthi Erza)
As Erza, her fellow guildmates and allies battled against the hordes of shades, they noticed that one of the arms of the Giant Phantom was moving in a pattern.
Alzack: Hey look, what's that?
Bisca: It's...drawing something.
Laki: A magic circle!
Virgo: Princess, that magic circle I know it. It's Abyss Break.
Lucy: Abyss Break?!
Erza: One of the forbidden spells. From the size of that magical circle, it could wipe out the entire city.
Elsie: (shocked) The entire city?! (begins to shake as she remembers something) No......
Erza: Lise?
Elsie: Not.... not again! (charges at the Giant)
Erza: Lise!
(back to the group)
In the meantime, Happy had flown back to Y/N, Braedey, Natsu, Shiki, Rebecca, Robo-Happy, Elfman, and Gray and informed them of Phantom preparing to cast Abyss Break and explained what it was. They were shocked by this, but while Y/N, Braedey, Rebecca, Robo-Happy Elfman, and Gray managed to stay calm; Natsu and Shiki, however, not so much.
Natsu: What do we do?! We gotta stop them!
Shiki: Before everyone is dust!
Rebecca:: The first thing we need to do is to split up and start looking for this Abyss thing's power source. It's the only way we'll find it in time.
Braedey: How do we do that?
Y/N: By splitting into teams. Shiki, you take Gray and see what you two can do about slowing the Giant down.
Shiki and Gray: Right!
Y/N: There are three members of Element 4 left. Rebecca, you and Robo-Happy go with Elfman to find and take out the Earth Element. I'll go after the Water Element. Braedey, the Air Element is yours.
Braedey: (nod his head) Right!
Rebecca: Are you sure Y/N?
Y/N: Trust me. I learned a lot of things with the Avengers back in my universe.
Rebecca: (worried look) Alright if you say so. (determined look) But remember what Lucy said to you!
Y/N: I know, I won't do anything stupid.
Elfman: Let's settle this like real men!
Rebecca: (sweat drop with a deadpan look) .....But I'm a woman.
(time-skip)
A minute later, grey storm clouds were forming over the Giant Phantom. Thunder rumbled through the air as it began to rain. Y/N climbed through a broken window to get outside, hoping that it would make it easier to find the Abyss Break's power source. He had come up here thinking that the head section was where the power source would be at since that was where it was usually in robots... well they also tended to be in the chest area, but Y/N already came from there when they all snuck inside.
When he felt the rain hit his body, he glanced up at the sky in confusion.
Y/N: That's weird. When did it start raining?
???: Drip, drop, drop.
Y/N immediately turned around to see a young woman approach him. She was a Caucasian pale beauty with a curvaceous figure, blue hair that was curled at the base, dark blue eyes, and pale skin. She wore a navy blue coat, a fur shawl, and a hat that Y/N would later find similar to that of a Russian Cossack. She was holding a pink umbrella with a white frilly trim at the base over her head as she walked toward him. He had to admit she was attractive like many girls in this world, although her hairstyle was a turn-off for him.
Juvia: Hello, my name is Juvia Lockser, and I am the Rain Woman of the Element 4. Drip, drip, drop.
Y/N: So you're one of them too, huh? And you're the one; the Water member that took Lucy away. Well then, bring it on.
Juvia: If you wish to duel, at least give me your name. so that I may engrave it with your buried remains.
Y/N: Y/N Tennyson, the Take-Over Wizard from Fairy Tail.
Juvia: I must say, I'm quite impressed that your Guild was able to defeat two of the Elements, however, you must not underestimate the remaining two.
Y/N: Listen lady, if you're looking for a fight I'll give you one, (runs his hand through his hair to smooth it out) But let's get something straight. I'm not gonna hold back just because you're a girl. I'm an equal opportunist fighter.
A moment of silence passed while Y/N and Juvia stared at each other. The tension could be cut with a knife. Unexpectedly, a hearty blush appeared on Juvia's pale face.
Juvia: (blush) Well then, (she turned around and began to slowly walk away) I give up. You win. Goodbye.
Y/N: Yeah that's what I... WAIT WHAT?!?! Are you serious?! Just like that?!
However, Juvia ignored him as she continued to walk away. But as she did, she shielded her heart with her hand, as she had trouble controlling her head, as her breathing was becoming deeper, her blush remaining on her face, as so many thoughts were rushing into her head.
Juvia: (blush) What's the matter with me? Why is my heart beating so fast? And my cheeks are burning red?
But Y/N snapped out of trying to figure out why she gave up so easily, and chased after her
Y/N: Hold on! If you're going to surrender, then could you please tell me how to stop the Giant?!
Juvia ignored him as she continued forward. Her hand was placed over her chest. Her breathing was becoming deeper and the blush on her face remained.
Juvia stopped in her tracks. Her dark blue eyes were twinkling with an emotion she had never felt before, or ever thought she'd feel ever.
Juvia: I can't explain why, but I have this strong urge to make him mine. I just can't help myself anymore. (held out her hand) Water Lock!
Without warning, Y/N was instantly trapped inside a big ball of water. The brown haired teen groaned in pain, as he tried to hold his breath, but was beginning to choke in there.
Juvia: Oh no! He's drowning! I had no idea this would happen! I don't know what to do! I guess I should probably release him.
Suddenly, Juvia was snapped out of her ranting as the ball of water she had trapped suddenly erupted into a whirlwind of water, spreading out. Juvia stood her ground, as the water breezed away from the target. Once the water died down, she was able to see again, and was stunned to see Tennyson freed. But this time, he was Overflow who was kneeling on one knee.
Overflow: Overflow! I was gonna go for Water Hazard, but I wanna try out more of this form!
Juvia: A Take-Over Mage! Back at Phantom, he transformed into a furry creature that could use lighting and an armored being that manipulated earth. I never knew he had a form that controlled water as well. (thoughts) I've never witnessed a Take-Over Mage that was this powerful, other than the legends surrounding The She-Devil Mirajane. He's amazing!
Then, the water mage began to have dreamy visions of her and Y/N together as lovers.
Juvia: (thoughts) To think my opponent would be someone like me. He's a Take-Over Mage, and I'm a Water Mage. Our magic powers are connected. Just as water changes temperature and can take on many shapes and forms, he can also change his form to many things as well. This must be fate saying we're meant to be together, I've finally found my handsome prince. (blushed madly) And right now, he's before me in armor and on one knee. It's like he's about to propose to me right here and now...
Overflow: (coughed out all the water, as he groaned and looked at Juvia) You're a real piece of work, you know that. You say you give up but then you turn around to attack me. Well it didn't work and I'm not going to drop my guard again. So you can keep trying to play dirty all you want, but I'm not falling for it.
Juvia held her beating heart and wailed happily, a perverted thought flowing into her mind.
Overflow: Uh... are you alright?
Overflow stood defiantly, ignoring the girl's sudden bizarre ways.
Overflow: Look, I don't want to have to fight a girl, but I will if I have to, so you better surrender; otherwise, I'll be forced to hurt you!
He brought up both his hands, as he fired a powerful double blast torrent of water. They were fired right at Juvia at blinding speed, with the double power of two fire hoses. The rain woman, however, didn't attempt to dodge the projectiles at all; instead, they went straight through her! Instead of blood pouring out, her injured areas took the form of water and merged with the rest of her body and returned to normal.
Overflow blinked at this, as he lightly gasped and stared at Juvia in bewilderment.
Juvia: My body is made entirely of water, surprised? Drip, drip, drop.
His eyes widened further from shock.
Juvia: (disappointment) Yes, (bring a hand to her cheek) My love is also my enemy. We are on opposite sides of this war. I have no choice but to attack.
She turned her attention back to Y/N, almost hurt by what she would do next to him.
Juvia: It seems that this is farewell, my prince. (held out her hand and summoned a blue magical circle) Water Slicer!
Three water whips shot out from her magic circle. Overflow's eyes widened before he jumped to the side to avoid them as they hit the top of a steel pillar. The top half was swiftly cut into tiny fragments, much to his surprise.
Juvia: You see, given the right amount of force, water is strong enough to slice through, underestimate its powers, and you'll find yourself in a world of pain.
Overflow: (thoughts) Man, I have got to learn how to do that.
Overflow thought to himself in awe at what he could do with moves like that before he shook his thoughts since now wasn't the time for it.
Overflow: I see, but I'm not letting this battle end with my body sliced and diced!
Suddenly, a wave of water erupted from Overflow and sliced Juvia in half. However, the water that comprised her body quickly connected back together.
Juvia: Can't you see that you're wasting your time? Your attacks have no effect on my body made of water. Drip, drip, drop.
Overflow: Great, so then what can I do? (an idea came to mind) Well let's see what you are against this!
He charged at her, but Juvia didn't move as she felt his attempts at harming her were useless, but that didn't mean she was going to just make it easy for him. She raised her hand as a torrent of water shot out, but Overflow merely used his own hand to fire a torrent of water to block hers and keep moving forward before he suddenly jumped over it and landed right in front of Juvia to her surprise.
Overflow got right in front of her and then punched her in the stomach, where his fist just went right through her as her gut area turned to water and began to reform itself to normal.
Juvia: I told you, my body is made of water. Nothing you do will harm me!
Juvia then raised her hand to fire an attack, when all of a sudden Overflow's eyes seemed to narrow in glee. The next thing she knew was that he slammed his hands into her stomach area that was still reforming.
Overflow: I know, so how about I try something different!
After he said that, his portholes opened up and began to actually suck her water body inside.
Juvia: (shocked) WHAT!!!
Juvia felt herself being absorbed inside Overflow. She tried to fight the pull, but a large part of her body had already been absorbed, and she couldn't fight back. In mere moments, she was completely sucked into the drains that were Overflows portholes before they closed themselves, trapping her inside. In a flash of green light, Y/N turns back to normal.
Y/N: Huh... I didn't think it would work. (turns to look at the window) Well then I guess I better... GAHHH!!!
He suddenly wrapped his arms around his chest as he felt pain coming from inside his body.
Y/N: What's going on?!
Suddenly, he looked and saw his stomach start to expand like its inflating itself.
Y/N: What is happening?! My stomach is growing?!
He falls on his back and puts his hands on his belly, which is still growing out and getting bigger and bigger.
Y/N: Oh crap! This reminds me of when I gave birth to baby Big Chills!
Sambamhaw: Wait a minute. First he saw bodies with Erza and Gwen, then he gets turned into a girl along with some female alien transformations, and now he gave birth to baby Big Chills?! I'm starting to think he had all this from his mother or something.
Y/N: Hey! Keep my mother out of this!
Sambamhaw: Whatever you say. And by the way, blame the people who wrote some fanfics of all this. Not me, I just got inspiration from it. Don't worry, he's gonna going into labor. Hopefully...
Y/N: WILL YOU GO ALREADY!!!
Sambamhaw: Okay, okay, I'm leaving! (exits)
Juvia: Let me out! Please let me out! It's dark, cold and cramped in here and I think I'm losing air!
Y/N groans in pain as he felt Juvia was moving around inside while his belly had another growth spurt.
Y/N: URGH!
Y/N was unable to answer as the pain was increasing and becoming unbearable while his stomach grew bigger, making it look like he's 2 months pregnant.
Y/N: Why the hell did I think this was a good idea?! I look like I'm pregnant at this rate!
He then covered his mouth as suddenly he threw up, but instead of vomit, it was water. The vomiting of water caused his stomach to shrink like it was deflating as the water quickly reformed into Juvia before she fell to the ground painfully.
Y/N: (whips his mouth) Ahh, that feels so much better. That's the last time I do something like that. Geez, this is what pregnant women feel like when they have their kids?
Juvia slowly got up since she felt a little dizzy from being inside Y/N, but then a realization came to her as she blushed heatedly.
Juvia: (thoughts) I was inside him, I was inside him! OUR BODIES WERE TOGETHER AS ONE, AND I WAS INSIDE HIM!!!
She thought hotly as perverted thoughts of her and Y/N together in bed uniting their bodies flooded her mind, only this time she was imagining that he was the one inside her.
Fantasy Juvia: (rubs her stomach) There, my love. You have become one with me as well.
Y/N: Hey, are you ok? Please don't tell me I left you permanently traumatized or something?
He asked her that after recalling how scared she sounded when she was trapped in his body. He may have been trying to defeat her, but he didn't want to do something like cripple her physically or mentally.
His words broke Juvia out of her daydream as her blushes increased.
Juvia: (thoughts) He wants to know about my well-being. He's so considerate, (looks at him with a blush) I'm just fine, my darling. And I have thought of a way we can both come to an agreement.
Y/N: What do you mean? Wait. Did she just call me 'darling'?
Juvia: It's clear that it doesn't matter what you do, you cannot beat me. But there is one way you and your Guild may be spared. All we ask is that you hand over Miss Lucy Heartfilia. Do that, and I'll ask our master to call off his attack on Fairy Tail and never bother you again.
Y/N: Ah, c'mon, don't you dare give me that crap!
This in turn caused Juvia to look at him confused, and rather shocked at that outburst, as he continued.
Y/N: You and I both know we're past the point of no return. Jose's not gonna stop until Fairy Tail's nothing but rubble, even if we give Lucy to him. And besides, Lucy is one of us, and out of all this, she's the one taking this hard. Even my friend Cana is taking this hard too thinking we don't have a chance. I'd rather give my life than hand her over to you, or to see any of my guild mates like that again!
At that statement, Juvia dropped her umbrella. Her mind going into a frenzy as she looked like she was spacing out.
Juvia: (thoughts) He'd rather give his life, give his life, give his life?! Lucy and Cana are my rivals! Lucy and Cana are my rivals! HE LOVES THEM BOTH!!!
All of a sudden, Juvia screamed loudly as she covered her face.
Juvia: AAAAAAAAAAH!!! Oh the pain! (she hugged herself, hiding her breaking heart) How can fate be so cruel!? My heart feels like it's been torn to bits! It hurts, oh it hurts!
Y/N: What's wrong? Why are you in pain? I didn't even injure you, did I?!
Juvia ceased her crying. The sadness in her eyes was now replaced by rage and heartbreak. Y/N actually stepped back from seeing such a look on her face, not knowing what the heck was going on.
Juvia: (mutter)They're not worthy of my precious darling!.
Then, she roared out, as steam shot from under her skirt, sleeve collars, and her ears.
Juvia: LUCY HEARTFILIA AND CANA MUST NOT BE ALLOWED TO LIVE!
Y/N only watched with a dumbfounded expression, a sweat drop falling down his face.
Y/N: Uh, did I miss something?
Without warning, Juvia shot out a blast of water at Y/N. As he skidded back a few meters, he quickly took note that the water was hot.
Y/N: It burns? (gave her a hard glare). What's your deal? What's your problem with Lucy and Cana?
Juvia did not answer him or seem to care he reverted back to normal. She only fired another raging torrent of water at Y/N. He swiftly leaped in the air to avoid the blow, but he was surprised by the speed in Juvia's attack. He immediately dodged it and took off his soaked jacket as he tossed it to the side.
This action he took, much to the embarrassment, shock, and pleasure of Juvia, stopped her from attacking for a moment, as her thoughts spun out of control.
Juvia: (thoughts) He's starting to take off his clothes! But I'm not ready for this, we just met! Wait, can't we take things slowly!? (she immediately snapped out of it, as she scowled at him) Using his sex appeal to distract me in a battle. He's rather devious if he thinks he can tempt me with lust!
Y/N: Jeez she's fast, I don't know if I can keep up. (smirked, as he activated the Omnitrix) But I think I have just the guy to cool you off! (And slammed the lens down)
In a green flash, Y/N transformed into Big Chill, as he unfurled his wings to outmaneuver her shots in the air. The water torrent that Big Chill dodged came back and circled around Juvia before being blasted back at the Necrofriggian again. The teenage Necrofriggian flew to the side; however, once he landed back on the ground, his feet lost traction on the wet ground and caused him to slip toward the edge. Luckily, Big Chill was able to catch his balance wings unfurled again, just before he would've plummeted over.
Big Chill: (sigh in relief) Whew, man that was close. (his wings folded back into Cloak Mode)
Juvia: Ever since the day I was born I've been followed by the rain. It gives me strength. It makes me invincible.
Big Chill: It also seems to go up when you get angry, Although I gotta say, you'd be excellent as a living sauna.
She stopped and held up her arm, convening a magic circle above her.
Juvia: Prepare to be scolded by my jealous rage!
She fired a few streams of boiling water at Big Chill, but the Necrofriggian skillfully jumped back to narrowly avoid the attacks.
Big Chill: What are you jealous of?!
But then it suddenly dawned on him, as he blinked.
Big Chill: (realized) Wait. Is this about Lucy and Cana?
However, he didn't get an answer from her, as she shot another blast at him. He spread his legs to make a wide base before he fired his fists forward, and with his breath, he combined both freeze beams and ice breath to fight against the scalding water. A shield of ice instantly appeared in front of Big Chill, blocking Juvia's blow. However, he wasn't certain that he could hold it up. The water in Juvia's attack was hotter than ever.
Big Chill: Man, this water is boiling hot, I don't think I can keep this up for long.
Juvia: (angry) Like I told you, I am at my most powerful in the rain. You will never be able to defeat me.
Juvia continued shooting her hot water surge until steam shrouded Big Chill's form. When she heard a crash, she immediately stopped. The mist faded, Big Chill was gone. She sauntered toward the broken window upon which he had been previously standing.
Juvia: (realized) He used the steam as a smokescreen, He's not just powerful and handsome, he's also smart too. (A warm smile appeared on her face, as well as her blush became pink again, as she gazed into the broken glass.) I truly am in love...
Meanwhile, Big Chill was flying down a hallway that had windows on both sides of the walls and even on the ceiling too. All while trying to get away from Juvia, figuring he couldn't win until he came up with a real plan.
Big Chill: I can't waste another moment fighting that crazy girl.
He looked outside, as he noticed the Giant's movements slow down.
Big Chill: It's slowing down? Well, at least the others are holding their part, now I just...
All of a sudden, an inundation of hot water broke through a window on the ceiling, carrying Big Chill away.
Big Chill: It's burning my skin!
He yells in pain which disrupted his concentration and prevented him from going intangible as his head broke the water's surface for a moment.
The water gushed through a window in front of Juvia and threw Big Chill into the air.
Juvia: It's all over now! (shot another water torrent at him).
Anger and determination crossed the Necrofriggian's face as he turned around in midair, as his wings opened up, and he held out his palms.
Big Chill: NOTHING'S OVER WHILE I'M STILL BREATHING!
However, instead of dodging it, he goes through it, freezing it in the process, much to Juvia's shock and surprise.
Juvia: No, It can't be!
He flew through further, freezing it more as he grew closer to her. Finally, he froze her in a block of ice. Suddenly, Juvia's body and the water around her immediately hardened into a large, spiked iceberg. Inside the iceberg, Juvia's thoughts were ablaze at the moment.
Juvia: (thoughts) I know I should be angry with him... but...
Big Chill was about to smirk in victory until he noticed something. His lower arms were trapped in the ice as well, and his hands had ended up grasping Juvia's breast. when he had actually been aiming for her neck to try and restrain her. And this in turn caused Juvia to blush like crazy in the ice. This however, made him freak out.
Big Chill: AHHH!!! It's not what it looks like! I didn't mean to!
At the same time, the girls felt something off.
Girls: Why do I feel like Y/N is hitting on another girl? (begin to release a dark malice)
Inside the ice, Juvia's thoughts were only those of a warm but confused thought.
Juvia: (thoughts) Will I be stuck like this forever? I know it's embarrassing, but his touch...
Big Chill: I'M SORRY!!! (transformed back into Y/N)
The young woman fell into his arms, as he still held on to her. She looked up and gazed at Y/N warmly, as she thought.
Juvia: (thoughts) Even though I'm his enemy, he released me. He's such a nice guy!'
Y/N: Let's just start over, okay? (nervous sweat drops falling from his face after the embarrassing incident) I mean, without all the... you know.
Juvia pulled away from him, and replied,
Juvia: Let's not. Honestly, I don't wanna hurt you so there's no point in us fighting anymore.
Y/N: (confused) Huh? Is this your way of admitting that you can't beat me or something?
Juvia: (shy look) You know, I'm much stronger than Lucy or this Cana. If you let me, I would be happy to protect you.
Y/N: (blink) Protect me? From what? And more importantly why?
Juvia struggled to come up with an answer, feeling more nervous than before.
Juvia: (nervous) W-Well, from anything that might try to hurt you. Because I think you're a really nice guy...
But as she tried to say her answer, the rain began to pour down harder by this action.
Juvia: And I... I think I'm...
Y/N couldn't make sense of what she was saying, but then he noticed her blushing face. He stopped listening, as he paid attention to the rain.
Y/N: Is it just me or is all this rain getting worse?
However, Juvia shook her head comically, as she screamed in her thoughts.
Juvia: (thoughts) OOOH! THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING!
Y/N: Hey, you wanna go inside to finish this? I mean, I don't mind a sprinkle or two, but all this rain and grey clouds seems so... well, gloomy.
Sambamhaw: It was at this moment that he knew. He fucked up.
EricHuber9: Gloomy! Juvia! Not Best Match!
Juvia froze instantly, as the word 'gloomy' echoed in her mind. The words continued to echo in her mind, as she realized that he was no different from all the others. She fell to her knees, realizing that this crush she had on him was worthless.
Y/N turned to see what was wrong with Juvia.
Y/N: Hey, are you alright?
Juvia: I thought you were different.
Her face looked down on a puddle on the ground. He could only hear her voice break as she tried to hide her broken heart.
Juvia: You're just the same as everyone else.
She clenched her fists tightly, as she suddenly stood right back up, and water shrouded her enraged form.
Juvia: HOW COULD YOU BE SO CRUEL AND HEARTLESS?!?!?!
Y/N: (gulp in panic) What are you talking about?
Juvia: (thoughts) I won't let my feelings be persuaded by him any longer!
Before Y/N could react, a blast of hot water slammed into him. He was carried back a few meters before he found some footing and managed to stand against the raging water. The wielder of the Omnitrix held out his hands, trying to activate the Omnitrix, but the force of the water was pushing him back.
Y/N: (thoughts) I can't reach the Omnitrix! And the water's even hotter than before!
He tried to fight the water current, but it was to no avail, as he was beginning to lose consciousness.
The water blast was so powerful; it sent him smashing him into the wall. She lowered her assault so that Y/N's face wasn't being flooded with hot water which allowed him to breathe a little.
Juvia: I'M THROUGH WITH LOVE!!!!
And then she looked at him, with tear-filled eyes, from which she saw, as she screamed out,
Juvia: AND I'M THROUGH WITH YOU!!!!!!!
And then finally, as the water poured further, Y/N blacked out.
Suddenly, Y/N shot up; awake as he gasped for air, seeing he was out of Juvia's attack. He blinked as he looked up, seeing that he wasn't on the Giant anymore. He stood up, realizing he was lying down, as he looked around, seeing he was in nothing but darkness.
Y/N: Am I dead? I'm dead.
But then he noticed a patch of light.
Y/N: Should I? I mean the whole walk towards the light doesn't sound very...
But then he heard voices coming from it, and decided to run towards it. Once he got close to it, he realized it was what he thought it was...
It was actually a school of sorts, on a rainy day, and he was inside the building, in a hallway. As he walked around, trying to figure out where he was, he spotted a little girl, standing alone by the wall outside a lit classroom. Y/N walked over to her, hoping to figure out where he was.
Y/N: Hey, little girl. Do you know where I...
But then he went wide-eyed with surprise. For the little girl standing in the hallway... was a ten year old Juvia Lockser.
Y/N: (blinked at this realization) J-Juvia? What the...? You're a little kid.
Boy #1: Man, this rain won't let up.
Y/N stood back up, as he peeked in the classroom, and saw her classmates talking behind her back, ignoring the fact that she was outside hiding at the doorway.
Boy #2: I hope Juvia doesn't come on our school field trip.
Boy #3: Yeah, the last thing we want is Gloomy Juvia ruining our spring field trip.
Y/N couldn't believe that these kids were talking about her behind her back like that. They didn't even care that she could hear them from her spot. He turned to see what her reaction would be, probably spray them with scalding water. But she didn't, as she just looked saddened and hurt by their words.
Suddenly, Y/N saw the scene change to one that he was in a girls' bedroom. He then heard sobbing, as the rain was pouring down outside. He walked to the other side of the bed, and saw the ten-year old Juvia again, crying as she was sewing up a batch of ghost dolls.
Young Juvia: (thoughts) Why... why can't I stop the rain?
Y/N was starting to figure it out to some degree now, but then the scene changed, as he was now outside, and like the other two memories, it was raining outside, in a park. Y/N was wondering what this memory held, but then he heard a little girl being pushed, and fall to the ground. He ran over to where the cry came from, and spotted an eleven year old Juvia, shoved in the mud.
Girl #1: It's always gloomy when you're around. You've got magic. So why can't you stop this rainstorm?
Young Juvia: (whimper)I don't know why I can't stop it (the rain hiding her tears) I can't control this; I'm sorry.
Boy #4: Then why don't you disappear.
They all scooped up and threw mud balls at her.
All: Disappear, disappear, disappear, disappear.
Juvia could only curl up into a ball, and whimper. Y/N couldn't help but feel sorry for her with every memory that he saw.
Suddenly, Y/N was in another memory, as he saw Juvia, now fifteen years old, and with a man a little older than her. It was raining like it was before, but they both had umbrellas with them. But the man seemed a bit upset, as he looked at a depressed Juvia.
Man: Can't you stop the rain? We can't do anything fun while we're going out.
Juvia: I wish I could, but I just don't know how.
The man huffed as he walked away.
Man: Well, I can't take all this gloom. I think we should see other people.
The same had gone with other memories, as Y/N saw Juvia become more depressed, as she witnessed couples stating how gloomy it was with the rain around. It only made it worse for her, as she knew she was the one who brought it everywhere she went. Y/N was beginning to feel sympathetic for this girl the more it became obvious.
He suddenly found himself dry as a bone, and saw the fifteen year old Juvia, sitting in a cathedral, all alone, and as usual, it was raining outside. Ben wanted to walk over to her, and maybe assure her that she wasn't as alone as she thought, but he remembered that this was all just a memory. And all he could do was watch, as this one unfolded.
She brought her legs up, and cried.
Juvia: This stupid rain. Why did I have to be born like this? All I bring is misery and gloom wherever I go. I wish I could just disappear...
???: Now if that were true, then I'd never recruit you to my guild.
Juvia, and an unnoticeable Y/N, looked to see someone walking into the cathedral. It was none other than Jose, the Guild Master of Phantom Lord. Juvia stood up, unsure of what was to come. She had probably assumed he was sent here to eliminate her in order for the rain to stop. But he reassured her.
Jose: Come now, dear. I'm not here to hurt you, I'm here to welcome you.
Juvia: Welcome me? To... to Phantom Lord? Why?
Jose: Why? Those fools that have tormented your life couldn't see past your rain to notice you have potential to become an S-Class Mage for my guild, I offer you the chance to join us. To become part of something grand and prideful. And I promise if you join us, no one will ever call you gloomy again.
At that realization, Y/N tried to shout at her.
Y/N: No! Don't listen to him; he's just gonna use you for...
His words were deafened, as everything went black, and he felt himself coming back to the waking world.
Y/N managed to come to, coughing out water from his lungs. He groggily started to see things a bit better now, and focused, as he saw Juvia walk towards him.
Juvia: Ever since I was a little girl, I've lived my entire life as a gloomy Rain Woman! But Phantom Lord looked past that! They welcomed me with open arms!
She readied to attack Y/N one last time, ensuring that she'd finish him off. No matter how much it hurt her to do this.
Juvia: I am one of the Element 4; a proud Phantom Lord Wizard!
As she brought up her hand out to him to finally finish him off, just as she was about to unleash an attack, Y/N with all the strength he had grabbed it.
Juvia: (shocked) What?!
She thought he was gonna flip her, but he did something unexpectedly, he hugged her.
Y/N: I am so sorry, Juvia. I really am. You shouldn't have gone through with all that pain and heartache on your own.
Juvia: (struggles) LET ME GO!
Y/N: I know what it's like to be bullied and pushed around as a kid. I experienced that too.
Juvia stops struggling as her eyes widen by his words.
Y/N: But I moved past that, and you can too. Just please, let me help you. Let me help you become the person you really want to be, not one who wants to disappear. (tightens the hug)
Juvia: Let........ You help.....me?
Y/N: Yes. That's a promise. I want to make you feel happy.
Juvia: Happy?
Y/N: Please, you don't have to fight to die anymore. You can choose to fight so you can live a happier life than the one you currently have now. (looks at her, had a tear in his left eye) Juvia, I want to be your friend.
At this point, Juvia had tears flowing down her eyes. She then hugged him back.
Juvia: (crying) I want to be your friend too...
Y/N: I know, I can accept you as one.
Y/N then saw the rain had stopped.
Juvia: (notices) The rain stopped?
And the clouds in the sky had parted to reveal the sun.
Y/N: (smile) Oh, look. The sun's up.
At that moment, Juvia felt a warmth deep in her that she didn't think was possible, as she looked up at the clear blue sky.
Juvia: The blue sky. (looked at it with wide eyes) I've never...seen it before. Much less the sun.
Y/N: (blink) Seriously? This is your first time? (smirked) Well, is it everything as beautiful as you imagined it to be?
Juvia was silent for just a moment, as she leaned onto Y/N's chest. The Omnitrix Bearer didn't mind at all, as she admired the beautiful blue sky. Starry eyed, she answered in genuine honesty.
Juvia: It is... truly beautiful. More than I dreamed it to be.
Then Y/N broke the ice, as he turned around, and asked her with a grin.
Y/N: So... you wanna enjoy the view later?
Unknown to her, he was talking about the view itself. But Juvia thought was talking about something else. She thought he had just asked her out on a date.
Responding to that, Juvia blushed like crazy, as she howled girlishly with a smile on her face. She then fainted from joy; the smile still remained on her face.
Y/N: (freaks out) Whoa! Hey, Juvia, are you alright?! Say something!
At the same time, the girls sensed something off.
Girls: (menacing aura) Why do I feel Y/N is flirty with a girl?
(with Braedey)
Meanwhile, Braedey continued to sprint down a long corridor with a high ceiling and giant, stone carved demons sitting on Roman-like pillars. He had split up with Y/N, Rebecca, and Elfman to cover more ground in hopes of finding the Abyss Break's power source, but to no avail.
The Transformer had been running down the hall for several minutes, coming up against zero Phantom opposition.
Braedey: (look around) Not one peep? Where is everyone?! (reaches for the Transformatrix) If I cannot find anyone normally, then I search un-normally then!
With that he picked a form and slammed down the core, and with a blue flash, turned into a giant, pickup truck-sized dog creature covered in metallic grey fur. It has sharp claws on its paws and black gills on the sides of its throat, but like with Wildmutt it also had no eyes. It has four huge grey/white spikes running down his back that overlap, the spikes starting out as a shark-like fin at the head and rise almost into an arc over the back, tapering near the rump. It also has a long tail with a curved horned tip, resembling a scorpion stinger. The Transformatrix symbol is positioned on the creature's chest. This form was MetalMutt.
MetalMutt began sniffing and searching, around trying to locate any member of Phantom Lord. He ran through the end of the corridor and into a large room that had a red carpet stretching down the center of the room and up to a grand staircase at the other end. Running along the carpet were brown pillars with light-emitting lacrimas on top.
MetalMutt began to sniff around the staircase and found a scent. He looked up and transformed back to normal.
Braedey: That scent.... Must be that Hose guy!
Suddenly, within the blink of an eye, Braedey yelped out in surprise as he was lifted off the ground by a powerful gust of wind. He quickly performs a backflip and reverse tuck-and-roll, landing on his knees and hand in superhero-landing style, trying to comprehend what had happened, while also with his shield now deployed.
???: How sad...
The jacket-wearing hero lifted his head up to see a swirling twister of air a few metres in front of him. The twister vanished and in its place is Aria.
Aria: I have seen your power, quite impressive; nonetheless, no matter what form you take, I shall blow you away with my might.
Braedey: I take it, you're one of the Element 4?
The man lifted up his head, and Braedey was kind of taken back to see that his eyes were covered by a blindfold. However, what really confused the teen hero was that rivers of tears were streaming down his face.
Aria: Indeed. My name is Aria. I am the strongest of the Element 4. I've come in hopes of slaying one of the two Monster-Men.
Braedey: Monster-Men? Now that's just rude you know!
Aria: I can sense three other members have been defeated. However, you would stand no chance of defeating me.
Braedey: So you say! (brings up the Transformatrix) But trust me, you'll find it much harder to beat me than you think!
Chapter 25 ended.
That was probably one of the longest chapters Eric and I made together. I hope you guys enjoyed it.
And @Braedimus95, if you have any ideas what you want in your OC's battle with Aria, let me know at the comments below. Peace out and enjoy!
