Crime Sorcière
It's our second day of beach training. With only three months to go before the Grand Magic Games.
"Yeah!! I'm all powered up now!!" Natsu shouted.
"If we work full out on building up our bodies..." Gray said.
"It's only been two days for me, but I think my magic has improved already." Wendy said happily.
"If we continue at this pace, we may yet catch up to the magic of this age." Erza stated with a smirk.
"Yep!" Levy exclaimed.
"Ha ha haha ha!!! Just you watch and see, you jerks from the other guilds!!" Natsu laughed.
I laughed as well while Irene gave me a worried look as she thought that I lost my sanity now. "You'll see what comes from Fairies doing three months of training by fire!!!!" Natsu exclaimed.
"At first, I thought of it as just three months but if we use really efficient training methods, then it's more like we still have a full three months." Lucy stated.
"Aye!" Happy shouted.
Suddenly Virgo the maid spirit of Lucy appeared under her. Princes terrible news!" She shouted.
"Where do you come from?!" Lucy exclaimed in shock.
"The Celestial Spirit World is on the brink of destruction. We need Fairy Tail's help right now. The King ordered me to bring you there at once." Virgo stated.
"Wait a minute, I thought humans weren't able to enter the Celestial World." Lucy exclaimed in confusion.
"There is one way to enter it, you simply have to wear Celestial Spirit Garments. Here we go." Virgo exclaimed and a bright light appeared.
"We are going right now?" Lucy shouted in shock.
We arrived at the Celestial Spirit World, I looked around and it was astonishing. "This place looks so much different then the normal world." I exclaimed in awe.
"You haven't seen Edolas then. I remember seeing someone like you, he was married to someone that looked like me. I wonder if... no that's a completely other world yet the Irene of Edolas said she had slept with him a lot and she also said she might be..."Erza stopped to speak as her mind wandered into her imagination her face became as red as her hair.
Irene looked around with interest. "I'd never thought to be in this place it looks really amazing." She stated in awe.
A large celestial being appeared he looked like the king. "And so we meet again human girl." He stated.
"Celestial Spirit King, is it true that your world is on the brink of destruction?!" Lucy asked with worry.
"Smile Lucy and friends, I have requested your presence so that we might honor your remarkable return from the Prison of Time. Now let us celebrate." He exclaimed happily.
All of Lucy's spirits appeared and some others too.
"I thought you where facing destruction." Lucy shouted to her maid spirit.
"I lied." Virgo exclaimed blankly.
"What?" Lucy shouted in shock.
"Thanks for the invitation. Irene ,Erza lets eat we haven't had something good in a while." I said and sat down.
"Of course Y/n." Erza exclaimed and sat next to me and Irene.
"So this is the spirit king I always imagined he had a mustache but not so big." I exclaimed with a light smile.
The king looked at me. "So you are Y/n, Lucy told her spirits that you have unique powers." He said with interest.
"That is correct king. I achieved absolute power thanks to my mentor Irene." I exclaimed and laid an arm around her.
"I can see into the human world if I want. And your past makes me think about my judgment that I had about you two. You see I thought both of you are evil, turns out my thoughts were wrong thankfully. When you showed up at Lucy's guild I wanted to send Horologium to save her." He exclaimed. "I apologize for my misjudgement." He exclaimed and bowed.
"We would never think of betraying someone we call friends and I'm not disappointing my daughter again." Irene exclaimed and laid an arm around Erza protectively.
"That is right we are in Ishgar for one reason to find a life we enjoy." I added with a smile.
Erza looked at me with thoughtful expression. "Since you were trained by a God dragon can you resurrect dead people too?" She asked in wonder.
I thought for a bit. "I never thought about that, Alpha never allowed me to use that power and bringing dead people back to live..." I said and stopped staring down.
Erza gasped in shock. "I'm sorry if I did something that made you remember it." She said and apologized.
I grabbed her hand and looked at her. "No it's alright what happened can not be changed." I said with a saddened expression.
Erza cupped my face making me blush lightly. "I told you I will help you and everyone of the guild will help you overcome it." She stated and looked at my eyes.
Irene looked at the both of us with a light smile. "Erza you got close to Y/n over the view days that we joined the guild." Irene exclaimed happily.
Erza smiled. "I treat everyone as a family member the moment they join." She said happily.
"This is so tasty." Natsu exclaimed but he didn't know that he was eating crab and lamb meat.
Lyra starts to sing a emotional song that made Irene lightly tear up. "This song has so many emotions in it." I exclaimed with a smile.
"Back in Alvarez I never had any emotions and now I can feel all of them." Irene stated with a happy smile.
Erza looked at her mother a little worried. "It must have sucked to not feel emotions." She said with a light frown.
Irene looked down. "The truth is I did actually but only hatred and sadness." She exclaimed and I hugged her. "Hey Irene the nightmare is over for you already since years so no sad faces, we are in Fairy Tail." I said and saw her smile softly.
Shortly after we all had to say good bey as the party was over.
"Who would have thought that those two would get along so well." Carla exclaimed looking at Juvia and Aquarius.
"They have the same element and share a lot of interests." Rose replied.
"You really got it rough." Aquarius exclaimed.
"No, you had it much worse than me." Juvia replied shaking her hands.
The King looked at us. "Take care of yourself old friend, remember no mater where you go we will always be with you. This is good by for now, may the guidance of the stars keep you well until we meet again." The king stated.
"I can't wait. I bet time moves slower here so we should train here." Gray exclaimed and Natsu agreed.
"I don't know if that's how it works." I exclaimed a little worried.
"Not quite." Virgo replied.
Back at the beach we all were looking at the ocean.
"What took you so long?! We have been waiting for ages. It's 5 days until
the grand magic games!" Jet and Droy shouted.
"It's all over." Erza, Natsu and Gray exclaimed falling over, Irene and I did as well.
"God damn it Virgo!!!" I shouted into the sky.
"Stache-face give me back my three months with my daughter!!!" Irene shouted in fury.
"Listen, mustache!!!! Give me my time back!!!!" Lucy shouted in anger.
"There is no time to rest, we simply have to train even harder now. Irene prepare your magic spell again and use it on the others!" Erza exclaimed with a sadistic smile while a bird lands on her.
I grabbed the bird. "A bird, it has something on it." I said and took it off. "Meet us on the other side of the broken suspension bridge, we can help." The note said.
"That's our only hope." Irene stated.
"I don't know if we can trust them." Erza replied with worry.
"Erza you trust us right?" i asked a little worried.
"Because I know you that's why." Erza replied with a slight smile.
"It's our only hope, so let's get moving." I exclaimed.
The group has found the suspension bridge and looks at an empty space
"Rose, Happy, Carla can you bring us to the other side?" I asked.
"Sorry I'm too tired." Rose replied and began to nap in Irene's arms.
"I'm only bringing Wendy over." Carla exclaimed.
"I am too full to fly."Happy added.
Natsu looked at the bridge. "Looks like we are not going to meet them, the bridge is broken." Natsu stated the obvious. The bridge suddenly is restored.
"Now we do Natsu, you go first." I exclaimed and Erza pushed Natsu on the bridge.
We walked over the bridge after Natsu confirmed it to be safe to cross. We all stopped when we heard something.
"Somebody's over there!!" Lucy exclaimed.
"Everyone, take care!" Juvia exclaimed and went into a fighting pose.
"Thank you all for coming." A male voice exclaimed. Three figures walked out of the bushes.
"Fairy Tail." a blue haired man said with a red drawing on his right face side.
"Jellal..." Erza exclaimed a little shocked.
"You haven't changed a bit, Erza. Perhaps...you've already heard about my escape." Jellal asked calmly.
"Yes..." Erza exclaimed in shock.
"I didn't want it to turnout that way." Jellal exclaimed guilty.
"Merredy and I broke him out." A woman with black hair replied.
"I didn't do anything. Ultear did most of it on her own." A girl with pink hair stated.
"Merredy!" Juvia exclaimed happily.
Merredy smiled. "Juvia, It's been a longtime!" She said happily.
"She can smile so happily now!" Juvia exclaimed proudly.
"Jellal escaped prison?" Lucy exclaimed in shock.
"Those two are from Grimoire..." Natsu added angrily.
"Hey! Wait! They're not our enemies now. You aren't, are you?" Gray asked worried.
"We aren't. No matter what I do, the crimes I committed in my youth can not be paid for, even in a lifetime of atonement.Yet...at the very least, my wish is to save some of the people whose lives my actions warped. At least, that is my intention. Jellal, for example." Ultear replied with a guilty face.
"Do not worry about me. Both you and I were possessed by the darkness. That is the past." Jellal exclaimed.
"Jellal...Your memories..." Erza asked concerned.
"Fully returned. Every last one. They started to return six years ago, while I was still imprisoned. Erza I truly don't know what to say to you..." He said and looked past Erza at me and Irene. "Wait these two I remember who they are." He exclaimed and pointed to us.
I saw Jellal dart at me with his fist to a punch but I didn't do anything I got hit by him and crashed against a tree. I looked up and saw him walk towards me with his fist engulfed in light.
"The Death Dragon and the Scarlet Despair. Before the magic council threw me out I got information about you and that woman, you are enemies of Fiore and it's inhabitants you killed innocent people and that woman has done horrible thinks to them as well, are you here to destroy the guild Erza cares about!!" He shouted towards me.
I looked up at him. "You are wrong Jellal about everything you said." I replied serious.
"You want to kill the mages of Fairy Tail is that it, right." He exclaimed and raised his fist. "Heavenly body..." He shouted.
Erza appeared right in front of me to protect me. "Jellal stop what you are doing! Y/n.. he isn't the person you think to be. His past is horrible. I believe even worse than mine. The people he killed would have died an even more gruesome death if not for him. And the burden he carries is impossible for you to understand he didn't want to kill them he had no other choice." Erza exclaimed and I saw a tear drop from her.
"I don't believe a single word from what you say Erza." Jellal shot back.
"Erza it's ok, you know the truth and he doesn't. But I will atone for my past and make it right. I want revenge on the person who's fault it is." I replied and looked down.
Jellal glared at me and wanted to attack me but Erza held him back. "Revenge on who? Makarov!" He shouted and Erza snapped.
"Shut up Jellal!" Erza shouted and slaped him hard, " Y/n he had a horrible past and the person he wants revenge on is called Dimaria! A woman! One of the Spriggans she's the one that raped him when he was twelve years old! He suffers from it to this day!" Erza shouted and held her mouth from what she said.
I heard everyone of the mages gasp in shock at what they heard from Erza even Merredy and Ultear were shocked.
"Y/n, he's a victim of sexual assault!" Lucy gasped in shock.
"Violation, that's horrible!" Juvia exclaimed with fear in her eyes.
"I didn't believe Y/n would be a victim of such a horrible crime!" Levy gasped in shock.
"What is that?" Wendy asked that had an inocent mind.
Carla glared at us. "You shouldn't know child! Only that it's a horrible thing." She exclaimed.
"What? Is that even possible!?" Gray asked in shock.
Irene & Rose glared at him. "Of course you dumbass! Both yelled and Irene wacked Gray with her staff.
Natsu was lost for words as he couldn't say anything.
"I don't know what to say." Happy exclaimed.
"It's better if you just stay quiet!" Carla scoffed.
Erza bend down to me as I was cowered on the ground. "Y/n... I'm sorry it slipped out." She said and apologized by hugging me.
Tears brimmed in my eyes as I covered my face with my crossed arms on the ground. "It's alright Erza you didn't mean to say it but it will come out one day to everyone." I shakily said and she pat my back while Irene did too.
Merredy and Ultear glared at Jellal. "I'm sorry. I was just worried about the people Erza calls friends and didn't realize that you are a member of her guild. I see your guild mark has the same color as her hair. Is there a reason why?" He asked with a slight smile.
"The reason is simple. You see Irene here is Erza's mother and she has the same hair color. I chose this color since Irene is my mentor and I swore to Irene to protect her daughter at all costs even before we met her." I replied and looked up to him.
"I see." He exclaimed and stretched out his hand to help me stand up. "I can trust you since a past like that is a reason for believing you." He added with a smile.
"Thanks Jellal I want to make things right and you too." I replied and stood up with his help.
"I can't change the past but I can change the future." Jellal exclaimed.
Ultear walked in front. "The three of us have formed a guild. We are neither official, nor are we a dark guild. We are the independent guild Crime Sorcière." Ultear stated.
"Independent guild?" Levy asked confused.
"What does that mean?" Happy asked curious.
"You're not a part of the league of guilds?" Carla asked in wonder.
"Crime Sorcière?| think I've heard of it." Droy exclaimed.
"Something about a guild that's been going around destroying dark guild after dark guild!" Jet added with a thoughful face.
"We have but a single goal." Ultear replied.
"We are a guild formed for the purpose of rooting out Zeref, the dark guilds, all who would turn this world to darkness. We wish for a world where no wizard will ever be possessed by darkness as we once were." Jellal stated with a serious face.
I looked at Jellal. "then we both search for the same goal, back in Alvarez Irene and I hunted them down and eliminated them one by one we even got one destroyed here." I stated with a smirk.
"I truly misjudged you." Jellal said and pat my shoulder.
"Ohh!" Natsu exclaimed.
"That's really amazing!" Lucy added amazed.
"It'd be nice if the Magic Council recognized your guild as an official guild." Gray stated.
"I'm an escaped prisoner." Jellal replied with a blank face.
"And we're originally from Grimoire Heart." Merredy added and Gray looked a little stupid.
"Also, at least publicly, official guilds are prevented from any acts of aggression against other guilds even dark guilds." Ultear exclaimed.
Erza looked at them without words.
"This form of guild suits us better. Now. We didn't actually call you here to introduce ourselves. We hear you are participating in the Grand Magic Games." Ultear exclaimed.
"Yeah..." Lucy stated a little concerned.
"We can not go near the stadium. Therefore, we have a favor to request of you." Ulter asked.
"You want somebody's autograph?" Natsu asked in wonder and Irene laughed.
"Not as such. Every year during the festival, we sense a very odd style of magic. We'd like you to find out what it is." Ultear exclaimed.
"What do you mean?" Natsu asked curious.
"It's a gathering of all the guilds through out Fiore ,right? There's bound to be a trace of suspicious magic." Lucy exclaimed.
"At first, we thought so too. But that magic seems evil, like Zeref's. Maybe we noticed it because we were all too close to Zeref once." Jellal replied.
"If that's the case than I and Irene know perfectly how Zeref's energy feels." I stated with a serious face.
"We have no affiliation to him anymore so helping you is something we can do." Irene added with a smile.
"Zeref..." Natsu eclaimed.
"We want to know what is behind that magic." Ultear exclaimed.
"It might even be a clue to tracking down Zeref himself." Jellal added.
"Of course, this request has nothing to do with the games. We'll be rooting for Fairy Tail from the shadows. We're hoping you can investigate when you aren't competing." Merredy added with a smile.
"It sounds as difficult as tying to down a cloud, but we'll do what we can." Erza exclaimed.
"We'd appreciate it." Jellal replied.
"Are you sure, Erza? If all the guilds of Fiore are gathered in a place where there is strange magic, then it affects us as well." Gray exclaimed a little worried.
"We will pay your reward in advance." Ultear replied.
"Food!! Money!!" Natsu asked curious.
"Rent money!!" Lucy asked with hope.
"No. I don't mean money. I've improved my Arc of Time. It can help to advance your abilities, as well." Ultear exclaimed.
Natsu was awestruck and shocked.
"I could call it something tempting like a "power up,"but that's not really it. Wizards have something like a "vessel" within them that limits the amount of magic power they can possess. Even if you use up all of your magic ,the ethernanos in the atmosphere are automatically absorbed into the body, and, given a little time, the vessel returns to its normal, full state. However...Recent research into wizards has revealed a portion of the vessel that usually goes unused. A latent potential that everyone has ,the second origin. In other words, it will allow you to use your magic for a longer period of time, or use stronger magics you couldn't before. My Arc of Time speeds up the development of that vessel, making it so you can use your second origin." Ultear explained.
We all gasped in amazement.
"I don't get it at all!!" Natsu exclaimed.
I facepalmed myself. "It means you get stronger without training." I said and he got it.
"However... You will also have to endure pain beyond your imagination." Ultear added with a evil grin.
Wendy screamed in fear.
"Scary eyes!" Levy exclaimed in fear.
"Fine by me!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!!! Little by little, I'm actually beginning to think of you as a real woman!" Natsu said and hugged Utear.
I looked at Natsu and at Irene and Erza for answers both shrugged.
"I am a woman." Ultear replied annoyed.
"You're still on about that?!" Natsu replied.
Later
I looked at Ultear. "So we get stronger by letting us get tortured?" I exclaimed and looked at Natsu rolling around from pain. "Cool." I added with a smile.
"Sounds like you want to feel the pain that Irene did to you once?" Rose asked in wonder.
Somewhere else Erza and Jellal were talking.
"You said your memory is back ...Jellal." Erza asked concerned.
"Yes." Jellal answered curtly.
"Then...what happened to Simon..." Erza asked a little hurt.
"I killed him." Jellal answered silently.
"What about everything that happened with Nirvana?" Erza asked and looked at him.
"I remember it. I remember it...as if it were "a self" I had forgotten. It's a strange feeling." He replied confused.
"So I can think of you as your old self?" Erza asked worried.
"It would make me happy if you did, but... with what happened to Simon I would understand if you wanted to keep your distance from me. And if you feel you must get revenge for Simon, then I'm prepared to give up my life." He replied and Erza got mad.
"Do you really think Simon would want that?" Erza replied angrily.
"You set up a guild bent on trying to eliminate dark guilds. You're set on doing that to right your wrongs, correct?" Erza stated angry.
"I don't really know." Jellal replied.
"What?!" Erza shouted in confusion.
"It's true that at first, I set up Crime Sorcière to help pay for my crimes. But I'm beginning to think that nothing can make up for the atrocities I committed at the Tower of Heaven. I've started to wonder what I'm doing any of this for. And I can't seem to find a way out of the maze those thoughts put me in. I think that perhaps I should die after all." He said and Erza slapped him hard.
"What is this cowardly tripe?!" Erza shouted and glared at him.
"I'm not as strong as you! I am..." Jellal exclaimed and Erza cut him off.
"So if you aren't strong, you can't live? Is that it? You're wrong!!!The fight to live on...That is strength!!! You know the difference between you and Y/n he was assaulted, abused and had to kill people while looking at them saying "I'm sorry that I can't save you" he understood that the past is impossible to change and looks forward into the future while correcting his path. You aren't the Jellal I used to know!!!! That Jellal was always doing his utmost to live!!!!" Erza shouted in anger.
"You may be right." Jellal replied guilty.
"Damn it!!" Erza shouted and grabbed Jellal.
"Erza whah." He exclaimed as both fall down the embankment and Jellal lands on top of her. "What you say is always right." He said and gazed at her.
"That isn't true." Erza replied weakly.
"I know I'm clumsy, but I live as strong as I can." Jellal replied.
"That's all?" Erza asked silently.
"Erza... I thought... I'd never see you again..." Jellal exclaimed.
"Jellal..." Erza silently said and their faces got closer. In the last moment Erza pushed him away. "I... I can't.... I have a boyfriend!" Erza exclaimed with a blushing face.
Jellal stood up. "He must be a good man then." He awkwardly said.
"Yes he's an amazing person. I think you know him." Erza replied with a smile.
"Really? How is he?" Jellal asked curious as he looked at her with a small smirk.
"Strong, kind and shares a past similar to mine." Erza replied calmly as she moved a strand of hair out of her face.
"That doesn't make it clear." He retorted.
"It doesn't need to be clear. Only to me, I know who it is and that counts." Erza annwered happily.
"Whoever it is I hope it's the right person." Jellal replied with a smile.
Erza and Jellal are back with the others at a small hut.
Erza looked at the mages that were rolling from pain while Erza just stood there. "They will not be able to move any time soon, thanks to you." Erza said with a smile as she looked at the team members that are screaming in pain.
"Why are you three doing just fine?" Ultear asked and shock her time sphere like something was broken.
"I'm stronger than normal already, Irene is even stronger than me and Erza is something special she can't be bothered by pain." I stated and smiled.
"That's because she's my daughter." Irene replied happily.
"Because of the nature of our guild, we cannot stay in one place for long. We must go now." Ultear explained.
"If you learn anything about that odd magic at the Grand Magic Games, send a note by pigeon. Understood." Merredy exclaimed happily.
"We'll be rooting from the shadows for you to win the games. Give it your best." Ultear added happily.
"Although we'd really like to see it in person." Merredy stated.
"Maybe you could go in disguise?" Lucy proposed.
"Let's not talk about that." Ultear replied curtly.
"I hope we meet again, Erza. And tell that boyfriend of yours if he hurts you I'm gonna commit a sin." Jellal threatened.
"Bey bey!" Merredy added.
"Give our best to the others. And look after Gray for me." Ultear said to Juvia.
"Don't worry I will look for anything that is suspicious." Irene exclaimed.
A bit later Erza walked with me to the beach. She looked at the stars before I got her attention. "Erza I need to know something Jellal said something about a boyfriend and he looked at me with a strange look?" I asked in wonder.
Erza blushed a little. "Well... before I got back to you and Irene. Jellal and I talked a bit and I got mad at him grabbing him by the collar and we fell down that embankment there. He landed on me and we were about to kiss when I pulled away and said "I can't I have a boyfriend"." Erza replied a little nervous.
"Is that so, who is the person you say to be your boyfriend?" I asked with a smile.
Erza looked into my eyes. "The Person I call my boyfriend is..." Erza said but she lost balance pulling me with her down the embankment and we rolled it down. I ened up on top of her and she was pinned down between my legs and arms. She looked so beautiful with those eyes and her soft looking lips and the wild scarlet hair. Our eyes we're locked on each other and my heart slowly began to drum harder as I kept gazing at hers.
