Chapter 67: Let it go!
After Larxene trapped them with ice, the group now stands in a room made of ice. The interior was quite nice and is decorated with giant Nobody insignias and frozen bolts of electricity.
Goofy: Anyone see a way out?
Donald: No, not me.
Natsu: I got this! (ignited his fist)
Happy: That's it! Burn it down!
With his fist ignited, Natsu immediately punched the nearest ice wall, causing the room to be filled with ice powder.
Erza: That is good thinking since your power is fire. But be careful not to bring the place down.
When the area was cleared from the powder, they all saw a large melted dent on the wall. Suddenly, the liquid from the wall began to solidified into ice again, reforming the dent on the wall.
Natsu: What the hell?!
Trish: What happened?
Modeus: It must be her lightning magic. She must've fused her magic with Elsa's ice magic. The ice can reform because it is made of magic energy, though it takes a long time to reform. But with Larxene's lightning powers, the ice can reform quickly since lightning is based on speed and it is created when large amounts of ice are rubbed together.
Wendy: Laxus, can you do something about the lighting inside the ice?
Laxus: I can't because it'll be difficult to separate the lightning from the ice, and I can't eat the ice to absorb the lightning. It's not my magic.
Ur: And I can't nullified it with my Ice magic since it has her lightning powers as well.
Gajeel: Now what do we do?
Sora: Well, we can't stay in here.
Goofy: Elsa's in real trouble now.
Kat: Along with Gray and Juvia
Sora: Yeah.
Drake: Larxene said not to hurt her, but I don't trust those guys after what happened with Rapunzel.
Donald: They've gotta be up to no good!
Lucy: Then we better get moving. (pulls out a silver key) Open, Gate of the Compass! Pyxis!
A red bird appeared in front of Lucy. It has small wings and a beak, beady eyes, a tubby body figure, and small yellow feet. It has triangle-shaped patches located mostly on its torso region. But the most distinctive feature it has is the large blackish-gray compass on its head.
Drake: What is that?
Lucy: This is another one of my spirits. Its name is Pyxis. Pyxis has the ability to tell directional references. When it does this, the compass on top of its head spins until it stops and Pyxis points the way with both of its wings.
Goofy: So Pyxis can lead us out?
Lucy: Yup.
Erza: She used this spirit when we were in a maze during the Grand Magic Games. Lucy, care to have Pyxis lead us out?
Lucy: Yes! (to Pyxis) Pyxis, we need you to locate the exit to this place. Can you do it?
The compass on Pyxis' head started to spin fast until it eventually stopped in one direction. Pyxis then pointed it's wings in that direction.
Lucy: Let's go everyone!
*with Gray and Juvia*
Elsewhere, Gray and Juvia were running up the mountain to catch up to Elsa.
Gray: Do you see her Juvia?
Juvia: No. She couldn't gone far.
Suddenly, lightning sparks flew into the air and headed straight for Juvia.
Gray: Get down!
Gray tackled Juvia to the ground, as the lightning sparks just flew right past them when they landed on the ground.
???: Wow, that was quick thinking. You're pretty good, despite being a loser.
Both Gray and Juvia got up from the ground upon hearing that comment and saw Larxene.
Gray: You must be with the Organization!
Larxene: You got it, pretty boy. The name's Larxene. You better remember that.
Gray: Tch. What do you want?
Larxene: You were going after Elsa, were you? Well I'm not letting that happen. I was a little annoyed that you left that group of yours, but now that I caught up with you I have some surprises for you.
Juvia: 'Group'? (realized what she meant) What have you done with the others and my beloved Drake?!
Larxene: 'Beloved?' What the hell are you talking about? (smirk) Oh I see, you're his girlfriend.
Juvia's face was completely red upon hearing that.
Juvia: (blush) G-girl...friend?
Larxene: I just dumped them in a monster maze. I wonder if they'll survive.
Larxene then snapped her fingers and groups of Heartless appeared behind her and on the snowy mountain cliffs.
Larxene: That goes for you two as well.
She went through a dark corridor she summoned underneath her feet, leaving Gray and Juvia alone with the Heartless.
Juvia: What should we do?
Gray: I'm sure the others are fine. Besides, they can't be easily defeated by monsters. For now, we gotta take care of these guys and reach Elsa before that Larxene does.
Juvia: That's fine by me, as long as Drake as okay!
Gray: Ready, Juvia?
Juvia: Yes.
*with the group*
Back at the Labyrinth, the group continued to follow Pyxis along with fighting Heartless and Nobodies. Some entrances were blocked by a thin layer of ice which the group easily knocked done to reveal a new area.
Natsu: (tired) How far is this?
Lucy: (tired) I don't know, Natsu.
Erza: We gotta keep going. Otherwise, we'll freeze to death.
As they entered a large room, they saw a large pillar in the room.
Wendy: That's a very pretty pillar.
Suddenly, Ninja Nobodies appeared in the room.
Lady: Prefect. More enemies!
Carla: Quit complaining and fight
Natsu ignited his fist and charged at the Nobody. But when he was about to punch it, the Nobody quickly flew into the air, making Natsu shock and lose balance.
Natsu: (surprised) What the-?
Lucy: So fast!
Erza: It's their movements! We need to match their speed!
Erza requipped into her Flight Armor and struck one of the Ninjas done.
Wendy: I got it! Vernier!
A magic circle appeared underneath everyone's feet.
Lucy: Pyxis, hide in the other room!
A nervous Pyxis nodded and ran off.
With Wendy boosting their speed, group attacked the Ninja Nobodies and easily defeated them. Pyxis then entered the room again and hugged Lucy.
Sora: (leans against a pillar) That takes care of that.
Suddenly, the pillar started to shift a little to the right, causing the entire room to shake and Sora falling to the ground.
Lucy: What was that?
Gajeel: Did that pillar just move?
Panther Lily: Maybe it leads to another exit.
Drake: Then let's try it out.
Drake, Gajeel, Lily, and Laxus grabbed a hold of the pillar and started to push it clockwise, causing the entire room to shake.
Donald: It's moving!
Next to the pillar, an exit appeared leading to another room. The pillar stops moving after it appeared.
Goofy: Hey, look! We can get through now!
They exited the room and entered another one. But when they looked towards the left, they saw a long icy hill down. When Sora put his foot on the hill, a giant icicle jumped out from the ground.
Sora: Whoa!
Goofy: We better steer clear of those icicles.
Wendy: But how do we get down?
Erza: Happy. Carla. Lily. Take Natsu, Gajeel, and Wendy and fly them on top of the hill so they can destroy the icicles while the rest of us can follow. Everybody clear?
Everyone: Yes, ma'am!
Listening to Erza's instructions, Natsu, Gajeel, and Wendy flew with their Exceed partners and destroyed the icicles with their magic while the others followed them until they've reached the floor.
Natsu: That was easy.
The then continued to follow Pyxis through the labyrinth, defeating enemies and rotating pillars that were the same as the one they encountered before.
After entering a large room and defeating all the enemies, Pyxis brought them to what appears to be a platform with a large pillar at the center.
Seeing it as the same one as the other pillars, the group turned it clockwise which lifted the platform and brought them to a long hallway.
Sora: Well, that seemed to lock everything into place.
Donald: That better be the end of it.
They followed Pyxis into the long hallway until they reached a large room with a giant snow sphere at the center.
Goofy: This must be the exit.
Ur: About time. I'm getting tired of this maze.
Lucy: Thank you Pyxis. You can return now.
Pyxis danced and then return to the Spirit World. After that, the group then entered the sphere. Sora and the others exited the labyrinth and entered the snowy mountain they were on before.
Sora: See them?
Goofy: (points at a very steep mountain trail) I think they mighta gone up in that direction.
Lucy: All the way up?!
Erza: It's our only way.
Sora: We can do it. C'mon! (starts running towards the mountain trail)
Lucy: Ugh, fine. I'll do it since our friends are up there.
Natsu: That's the spirit!
Natsu and Happy ran after Sora. Eventually, the others followed.
*with Gray and Juvia*
Gray: Ice-Make: Lance!
Juvia: Water Jigsaw!
Gray and Juvia fired their magic simultaneously and defeated all the enemies Larxene summoned in that area. They were also on the highest point on the mountain.
Juvia: I think that's it.
Gray: Yeah. Man, we're really high up...
Suddenly, something landed in front of the ice and water wizards. But what made them surprised is the black smoke from the ground
They looked to see dark electricity emerge from the smoke and a humanoid being slowly rise from it; the very same that was trekking the woods some time ago.
Gray: Who is that?
Juvia: I don't know, but he doesn't look friendly.
He drew his sword, which surged with dark lightning.
???: Fairy Tail... we meet at last.
Gray: Who are you?
Nelo Angelo: You can call me, Nelo Angelo. Finally, the the strongest guild in Fiore will be destroyed. Now, prepare to die!
He surged forward while everyone screamed. However, all they heard was a clash of metal.
Gray and Juvia looked in surprise to see Drake using Rebellion to block Nelo Angelo's sword strike before he could get in the building. Nelo Angelo looked to Drake and his yellow eyes widened in shock.
Nelo Angelo: Impossible!
Drake: Get lost, ugly.
Drake kicked Nelo Angelo in the chest, forcing him out. Using this opportunity, Drake swung Rebellion and gathered his power in the air from the spell.
He then sent a red energy wave from Rebellion that hit Nelo Angelo dead on and sent him skidding across the ground.
Juvia: (hugs Drake) You're alright!
Drake: Hey Juvia, sorry I worried you.
Juvia: (shook her head) I knew you would be alright. But, what about the others.
Drake: Yeah, they're fine.
Gray then saw some familiar faces running towards them.
Gray: And look who just arrived.
Sora: Gray! Juvia! Are you two alright?
Juvia: We're are doing just fined, Sora.
Gray: We've ran into this Organization girl name Larxene and she sent us some enemies to fight. We defeated most of them for you. Your welcome.
Natsu: Since when are we thanking you?
Wendy: Shh! Listen...
Everyone looked at Wendy, who had here hands against her ears.
Wendy: I hear someone singing...
Gajeel: ( put his hands against his ears) I hear it, too.
Natsu: Me too.
Modeus: It must be Elsa. She must be close by...
Wendy: I hear her voice from over there.
Wendy pointed towards a blizzard.
Lucy: (sigh) Great. A blizzard. I hate the cold...
Erza: Let's go.
Erza and the others headed towards the blizzard.
While in the blizzard, the group (except Gray and Ur) was struggling to walk through the deep snow and all of them were shivering.
Happy: (very cold) This is intense...
Carla: Agreed.
As they were walking, they can hear Elsa singing.
(Play "Let it Go" first verse)
They continued to listen to Elsa as her voice became louder as they went up.
Sora: Yup! That's Elsa's voice!
They all immediately ran up the mountain to find her. As they ran, the blizzard began to disappear and they all saw Elsa at the top, throwing her glove away.
(Main theme part (The part that has been stuck in your head since 2013))
She smiled while she was singing. She then formed a snow powdered snowflake on her left palm and another one on her right palm. She then waved her hands around as small amount of snow powder began to gather, revealing to be a snowman with sticks for arms.
She continued to walk as she fired swirls of snow into the air until they fall to the ground when she waved both of her arms to the side.
Elsa then blew some more snow powder at her right side and then at her left. A small wind blew and her cape began to fly on her back. Seeing this, Elsa unclipped her cape and let it fly into the air.
The group then saw her cape flew past them.
Lucy: What a pretty voice...
Ur: This way!
(Second verse)
Elsa continued to sing while she walked up the mountain, getting more excited as she goes. She then stopped when she reached the edge of the cliff. Seeing this, Elsa then fired some ice magic from her hands across the cliff, forming stairs with some snow powder on them.
When she reached them, she put her right foot on the first step, removing the snow powder and making it nice and clean with some snowflake designs on them.
She then eagerly ran up the stairs with her hands on each railing. While she went up, the snow powdered cleared as she went up.
The group then made it to the stairs and saw Elsa reach to the other end.
Kat: Look at that!
Laxus: That is really impressive ice magic.
When Elsa reached the other end of the cliff, she ran towards the center and stomped her right foot down hard, forming a large ice snowflake and it continued to grow until it covered the entire area.
She then lifted her hands and large ice pillars from underneath the snowflake began to rise, forming a platform. More ice pillars began to rise from the ground around the snowflake and when they have reached a certain height, ice walls began to form to connect the pillars.
The group saw in awe Elsa's creation from the other side of the cliff, which took the form of a giant ice castle.
Lady: She formed a castle?!
Gray: That is some incredible ice magic!
(Third verse)
While inside the castle, Elsa continued to sing while she formed some snowflake designs on the floor. She then lifted her hands up and ice magic powder began to rise, forming a ceiling with a snowflake chandelier.
She then grabbed her crown from her head and looked at it with a serious look. She then threw it away from her and she then dug her fingers into her hair, messing up her hair and making it a loose French braid that is swept over her left shoulder. Ice magic then appeared on her dress, transforming it into a blue dress. She lifted her arms into the air to form the sleeves and a light blue cape formed on her dress as she walked towards the balcony on a sunny morning.
When she reached the balcony, she lifted her arms with joy on her ice palace while the group watched her. She then relaxed and entered her castle while shutting the doors to the balcony.
The group was still surprised at what they just saw, especially Gray and Ur.
Gray: That... was amazing ice magic I have every scene.
Ur: Yeah, not even I can create something like that.
Erza: She formed a castle...
Natsu: That was awesome!
Happy: Aye!
Sora: Wow. I don't know what we just saw but...wow. That...was Elsa?
Donald: She looked different.
Goofy: And a lot happier, too.
Drake: Guess she's gotten the hang of her power. Though, my question is, where did the piano come from?
Sora: (ignores the last part) Let's say hi.
Gray: Yeah. Besides, I have some questions to ask her.
The group then started to head towards the steps. Suddenly, a dark corridor appeared in front of them, revealing to be Larxene.
Larxene: Please don't tell me that you're spying on her now.
Drake: Oh great, the lightning bitch is back.
Juvia: It's that bimbo from before!
Larxene: Who are you calling me a bimbo?!
Sora: Don't turn this around on us. You're following her.
Happy: He makes a good point.
Larxene: Ooh. Look at you getting all sassy.
Everyone in Fairy Tail: You're one to talk.
Larxene: You are so rude!
She then took a deep breath and calmed down.
Larxene: Okay, I'll admit Elsa is a person of interest to us. Maybe she's one of the seven pure lights we need—the New Seven Hearts. Gotta make sure though.
Lucy: (surprised) Another one...
Erza: Like Rapunzel?
Larxene: It's possible. Fortunately, we're in the best position to tell. Can't pick out that "special glimmer"...unless you're standing in the shadows. (looks at the palace) And maybe...Elsa doesn't have it. I mean, just look how icy her palace is—made of magic she forced herself to keep hidden until now. What if it's dark magic?
Sora: Elsa would never rely on the darkness!
Ur: If you think it's dark magic, you're dead wrong.
Modeus: Elsa may have viewed her power as a curse, but she now fully embraces it as a gift!
Kat: There's no way in hell that she would decide her power as darkness!
Larxene: Actually, it's still too early to call. Depends on how she sees it. If she believes her magic is darkness, that's what it will become. Accepting her power, whatever it is, is the only way she can set her heart free. So what will Elsa accept? Light or darkness? I know I wanna know!
Sora: (growls) Well, good for you, but guess what? We won't let her fall to darkness!
Drake: So make this easier for yourself and piss off!
Larxene: It's her choice to make, not yours.
Gray: You have a point. It's up to her how she feels about herself. I had experience that myself. (got into his fighting stance) But if you're gonna do something to her, I will fight you. And I won't hold back just because you're a chick. You stupid bitch.
Sora stood there in awe.
Sora's mind: I know he was calm and cool. But I never seen Gray like this...
Larxene: (furious) You know, I'm starting to understand why she gave you the cold shoulder.
Electric sparks came from her hand. She lifted in the air and swung it, making a large gust of wind appeared. Gray grabbed Juvia's arm and quickly dodged towards the side before it could hit them.
Unfortunately, the others were caught in the wind and they struggle to move forward and they had their arms over their faces.
Sora: Larxene!
Larxene: You wanna help her? Then stop trying to be her hero! Let her figure things out her own way!
She then blasted lightning from her hand, making the wind stronger and sending them flying off the mountain.
Chapter 67 ended.
