3rd POV:

Somewhere in the remote location, there's a small building where there's a light and a mysterious pink smoke coming out of the chimneys. Ichiya is doing some unknown and unusual experiments. What could it be?

Ichiya: At last, after this tireless research, I've created the ultimate parfum! Man!

Ichiya accidentally knocked over his experimental handsome parfum to spill on the floor. However, Ichiya didn't realize that his creation went into the sewer drainage, plaguing Magnolia. Towards the next day, most of the people in Magnolia didn't know what's happening. Jet and Droy are on their way to the restaurant's grand opening.

Jet: I can't wait to see Levy's outfit!

Droy: Me too!

Jet and Droy have stopped and see a man who is crouched down to the storm drainage. Which was very odd. They went to investigate.

Jet: What's so special about the storm drainage?

Droy: Beats me.

Jet: Are you okay, sir?

Droy: You're looking for something?

The man stopped, turned back to them, and was shocked to see a man's face turn into Ichiya. The male citizen is walking to them in a creepy way, which is making Jet and Droy uncomfortable.

Male: Maaan~ Sniff,sniff~

Jet: I-I'm getting creeping out here!

Droy: H-h-hey back off!

Until it was too late for them. Jet and Droy have screamed in horror.

What is about to come, the nightmare and horrors awaits them... and you(readers and authors, yes I'm talking to you) will be fueled in fear, which they and you all will never forget for the rest of your lives to this day...

(Opening plays on the top)

As their new day appears, dark clouds above the sky, it's just an ordinary day here in Magnolia. Most of the citizens of this town were looking at certain female wizards of Fairy Tail were working for Yajima at 8-Island which Erza, Kuroka, Ur, Levy, Wendy with Carla, and Juvia in their waitress outfit while Lucy and Rossweisse in their bunny outfit, which finds them a bit silly.

Lucy: *whines* How did I get myself into this job?

Rossweisse: Now, now Lucy. There's no need to worry. I'm sure we can handle this. Although, I find myself a bit embarrassed about this suit in public.

Erza: Rossweisse is right, you know. I don't see what you are complaining about. This grand opening will make a great deal in cash, right?

Kuroka: I know darling will like it when he sees this in spare time, right Ur?

Ur: Yep. No complaints there.

Erza and Rossweisse secretly thought about what Kuroka said and giggled in secret. Erza shook that thought and saw Wendy, Carla, and Juvia resting at the table.

Erza: Quit dawdling, the rest of you!

Wendy: Sorry, we're on break.

Juvia: Looks like the five of you are having fun. Say Erza, take a look at this!

Erza: The new edition of the Sorcerer Weekly? What of it?

Juvia showed Erza the Sorcerer Weekly pages, which was about the top ten of the hottest male wizards, which features Sting and Rouge showing off their bare chests.

Erza: Top ten pretty men wizard ranking? Huh. I didn't realize that was a thing.

Juvia: Look! My darling Gray is on the list here!

Juvia points out that Gray is featured in the list. Erza is stunned and says next shocks them.

Erza: What?! Doesn't the term "pretty man" refer to people like Ichiya?

Wendy and Juvia: Huh?!

Kuroka and Ur: Gross, no way.

Erza: I mean, he always calls himself a pretty man all over in Fiore!

Juvia: No, you can't call yourself one denying the truth. See? My dear Gray and the other wizards are nothing like Ichiya.

Kuroka: But it makes you feel better, turn to the next page.

Erza turns the next page. She is blushing red with her blank stare and her eyes in pink hearts. She sees Y/n is featured in the list with his bare chest, his toothy smile, holding his sword on his back and his Ebony pointing forward.

Erza: Wha?! Oh my! How did he make it in?! When did that happen?!

Ur: Kuroka, myself, and the rest of us made anonymous votes to be in that ranking. He refused at first, and we made a point that you admire him even more.

Kuroka: So that you can forget about that little troll. Darling is the best medicine for our hearts. He's more than handsome.

Erza: I-I see. *clears her throat* I'll keep this for research.

Wendy: Sometimes I wonder how Erza managed to go through the day.

Carla: Clearly defies logic.

Levy came by and looked around.

Levy: Hey, does anyone know where Jet and Droy are? They said they would be here.

Lucy: Yeah. They'll be the first to see you in a cute waitress uniform.

They heard footsteps slowly, they turned and saw Jet and Droy are coming towards them with their faces blurred in shadows.

Wendy: Oh! Speak of the devil! Come sit, you guys!

Levy: Hey! What kept you!

Levy is horrified while Lucy, Erza, Wendy, Juvia, Kuroka, Ur, and Rossweisse are also seen as well to see Jet and Droy who are acting and look like Ichiyas

Jet and Droy: Maaan~!

A man's voice says in a deep and chilling tone... (A/n: Like a man who says in the beginning of Resident Evil series. You're welcome.)

FAIRY TAIL OF THE DEAD MEEEEEEEEN!

Jet and Droy: Sniff,sniff~ Sniff,sniff~

Female wizards scream in comical horror.

Erza: What happened?! Why did they have Ichiya's face?!

Lucy: I feel like I'm going to throw up by looking at it!

Wendy cries uncontrollably while Kuroka, Ur, and Carla try to calm her down, and Rossweisse does the same with Lucy. The infected Ichiya of Jet and Droy are getting closer to Levy's personal space.

Levy: No, stay away!

Jet and Droy: Sniff-sniff~

Unfortunately for Levy, it was too late. Levy screamed in horror as Jet and Droy were sniffing Levy.

Lucy: LEVY, NO!!

Lucy attempted to save her friend, but they slowly realized it was too late to save her. Rossweisse grabs Lucy to restrain her.

Rossweisse: Lucy, dont! Something like that will happen to us!

Lucy breaks free of Rossweisse's grips and runs fast to save her. The Ichiya version of Jet and Droy stopped sniffing her, however...

Levy: What's wrong, Lucy?

Levy is now infected with the Ichiya virus.

Levy: Maaaan~

They were horrified by what they witnessed of Levy's infection.

Juvia: Being smelled as Ichiya gets you infected?!

Carla: We have to get out of here now!

Erza stood her ground and made her fight stance with her non-lethal weapon.

Erza: Hurry back to the guild hall! I'll handle this! Those Ichiyas are clumsy and slow. They can't keep up with me!

Lucy: Be careful, Erza!

As they left, Erza began to smack the infected Ichiya of Jet, Droy, and Levy. Erza was about to warn Yajima, but something grabbed her on the leg, which is Yajima, who is already infected with the Ichiya virus.

Yajima: Sniff,sniff~ Sniff,sniff~

Erza: Oh noooo!!!

While Lucy, Wendy, Carla, Juvia, Kuroka, Ur, and Rossweisse are running away from the scene, they hear many people of Magnolia scream in sheer horror and panic as it unfolds. Meanwhile, the mindless Ichiyas break the fourth wall and start to sniff the readers and authors, they are turned into Ichiyas.

Readers and Authors: Sniff,sniff~ Maaan~

Rossweisse: No! This can't be real!

Carla: I'm afraid it is!

Kuroka: We need to split up! Rossweisse, stay with Lucy, find any survivors! Ur, stay with Wendy and Juvia, find a safe place, or get to high ground!

Wendy: Wait, what about you?!

Kuroka: I have to find the kids and the others!

Juvia: Oh no! We can't let that happen! Go! We'll be careful!

Ur: We're on it!

The three groups of female wizards of Fairy Tail have gone their separate ways while maintaining their distance from turning into mindless Ichiyas.

Wendy, Carla, Juvia, and Ur are hiding in the alleyway and see the townspeople getting infected as an Ichiya. Wendy is terrified and slowly starts to cry.

Juvia: What do we do? The town is filled with Ichiyas...

Wendy: Is this the end of the world?! What if Lucy and Rossweisse are turned into them?!

Ur hugs Wendy to comfort her.

Ur: Shh. It's going to be okay. Rossweisse is fast, I know she'll get through.

Gray: Hey! You guys are alright!?

Wendy, Carla, Juvia, and Ur have turned and are happy to see Gray are running towards them without being turned.

Juvia: Ahh~ The true pretty man has come to rescue Juvia!

Wendy: Gray, thank goodness you're okay.

Gray: Yeah, but what the hell is going on here?! This entire town is filled with Ichiyas!

Juvia: What happened at the guild hall?

Gray looks down solemnly while they slowly realize what he's thinking.

Gray: Very bad. The guild hall is filled with infected Ichiyas, even the master. I'm not sure where the others are now.

Ur: What about Y/n? Has he made it back? And the others?

Gray: I'm not sure. He hasn't come back from his job. I don't want to think about the outcome.

Juvia: Oh, Gray, I'm so scared...

Gray: Don't worry, it's gonna be alright...

Gray wrapped his arms around Juvia while she was surprised by his gesture, Wendy and Carla are blushing pink to see. Ur grabs Wendy and Carla's shoulder because Gray has already been infected by the Ichiya virus and starts to sniff Juvia.

Gray: I'll sniff your smell. Sniff-sniff~ Your parfum is amazing~

Wendy and Carla screamed.

Ur: Come on!

Ur picks up Wendy and Carla and starts to run away to somewhere safe. A few of Ichiyas are blocking their path. Ur has an idea.

Ur: Ice-Make: Floor!

Ur slams her hand on the floor, creating a slippery layer of ice over the floor. She maneuvers her way without any problems while she holds Wendy and Carla tightly.

Ur: 'Y/n, please be okay! We need you!'

Kuroka is running and jumping from buildings fast towards Y/n's house to see if Irene, Asia, and the others are okay. As Kuroka gets closer to the door, she hears something bad that has already started. She opens the door and sees Irene restraining Heine and Juliet, who was already infected with the Ichiya virus, while Chisato is protecting Latina and Grace, who is shaking in fear.

Heine and Juliet: Sniff,sniff~ Maaaan!~

Irene saw Kuroka and turned to Chisato.

Kuroka: Over here! Hurry!

Irene: Chisato, take the kids and leave with Kuroka! I'll handle this!

Latina and Grace: NO!

Chisato: What about you?

Irene: I must reason with them! Go!

Chisato was left with no choice but to accept her request and started to run to Kuroka along with Latina and Grace. What they didn't know, Irene slowly met her end.

In another part of Magnolia, Lucy and Rossweisse are hiding under the bridge to keep quiet from the mindless Ichiyas. Lucy is shaking up in fear while Rossweisse hugs her but feels a bit afraid as well.

Lucy: This sucks. What now?

Rossweisse: I... I don't know...

They heard some familiar voices nearby. They looked and saw Alzack, Bisca, and Asuka, who seemed to be okay. They looked at the couple who were about to kiss while blushing pink, but to their horror, they were infected by the Ichiya virus and Asuka as well.

Lucy: This is it. This is the end. What do we do? The apocalypse is here.

Rossweisse: No, I-I-I can't give up... I can't...

They can hear faint footsteps close by. It's getting a bit closer and closer, and they braced themselves for what was about to come. But to their relief, Lucy and Rossweisse looked to see Natsu, Happy, and Asia, who weren't infected.

Natsu: I knew that was you I smelled, Lucy!

Happy: Aye, they aren't Ichiyas!

Asia: You're okay, thank goodness!

Lucy: We're glad to see you!

Rossweisse: Asia, have you seen Y/n or anyone else?

Asia: I don't know. I was about to leave to get help. Those mindless trolls blocked my path until Laxus saved me and helped me escape. And it came to a terrifying cost.

Flashback to Asia's point of view...

The entire guild hall is in a state of panic and terror. Due to the infection of the Ichiya virus, one by one, they were all turned into Ichiyas. Asia started to make her escape. However, she was trapped by the Thunder Legion with the Ichiya virus.

Freed, Bickslow, and Evergreen: Sniff,sniff~ Maaaan...

Asia: S-Stay away!

Laxus is in front of her, has pushed his Thunder Legion away from Asia, he saved her.

Laxus: Asia, run!

Asia: Laxus, but

Laxus: Go! I'll hold them off! Find someone who can help!

Asia is left with no choice but to listen to Laxus' response and starts to run away to the guild hall. Laxus can't hold on. Everyone is piled up surrounding him, and they start to sniff him. While Asia runs, she can hear Laxus scream and meet his end. Asia is in tears. Laxus has been turned into Ichiya.

Laxus: Maaaan~

Flashback ends...

Happy: We met up with Asia after she told us what happened.

Natsu started to pick a certain smell from the distance. He widened his eyes in surprise as he recognized it anywhere.

Natsu: Come on, I smell Y/n!

Rossweisse: Really?! Then there's no time to lose! We must hurry!

Lucy: Okay!

Lucy, Asia, Rossweisse, and Happy begin to follow Natsu's trail to find Y/n quickly before it's too late.

(Pause the music.)

A few minutes earlier...

Y/n riding his Cavaliere Red and finally made it back to Magnolia from his recent job. He was a bit exhausted from the photo shoot for the Sorcerer Weekly. Y/n stopped by the bakery store to buy some strawberry desserts. He parked his motorcycle and disappeared. As Y/n has arrived, he feels a bit off around him.

Y/n: No one's around?

True enough, Y/n noticed that there's no people in front of the store, including inside. Usually it's busy. Which is a bit very odd.

Y/n: That's weird...

Y/n suddenly hears something crash inside the bakery store. He decided to investigate the cause, as he slowly opened the door and saw that most of the bakery displays and items were on the floor.

Y/n: Hello? Is there anybody here?

Y/n went inside of the store and moved cautiously in case any ambush could happen anytime. Y/n focusing his Ki and Aura around him and picked up some life readings. He proceeded cautiously. He hears a man who is groaning in pain, he went to check it out and sees a local officer of this town lying down on the ground, unable to look up. Y/n carefully went to check on him.

Y/n: Hey, you okay?

The local officer was still unable to look up and speak, but he pointed out where the cause was coming from the storage area.

Y/n: Stay here, I'll get help.

Y/n carefully walked towards the source coming from the storage area. As he's a bit closer, he can hear the man close the door behind him.

Y/n: 'Okay. This is gotta be some horror movie and game clichés. Either way, something is not right.'

Y/n continues to walk cautiously, closer at the door leading to the storage room. Y/n carefully opens the door and sees another local officer restraining a citizen who is violently shaken up, which couldn't see in the dark.

Officer: Stop moving!

Y/n: Hey officer, need any help?

Officer: Stay back, kid. I got this.

However, a male citizen has gained the upper hand, grabs the officer, and goes to his personal space, which Y/n heard some familiar phrase before.

Male: Sniff,sniff~ Sniff,sniff~

Officer: HELP ME! AAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!

Y/n: Hey, get off him, now!

(Resume the music.)

The male citizen has stopped sniffing the officer, they slowly turn around to him, and Y/n is shocked to see the male citizen and officer have been turned into Ichiyas.

Male and Officer: Maaaan~

Y/n: What the f**k!?

Two of male Ichiyas are slowly walking towards Y/n, attempting to sniff him. Y/n equipped with his Revenant and pointed at them.

Y/n: Don't say I warned you!

Y/n amplifies his Ki to his shotgun, and he shoots both of them with non-lethal shells. Those two mindless Ichiyas have been knocked out.

Y/n: Why did they look like that nasty face troll? I need to find others fast.

Y/n started to escape the store and find any survivors without anyone who is infected. As he was almost out, he stopped by the same officer, and he was already infected with the Ichiya virus.

Officer.2: Sniff,sniff~ Maaan!

Y/n quickly shot his non-lethal shells at the officer, and he's knocked out. Y/n managed to get out of the store and he's shocked to see a lot of male and females were infested by the mindless Ichiyas, including children, who kept sniffing and saying "Sniff,sniff,Man".

Y/n: What the hell is going on here?

The mindless Ichiyas stopped and looked to see Y/n and started walking eerily to attempt to sniff him. Y/n crosses both his arms, flexes his arms, and sends a shock wave to force them back. Y/n formed his own wings on his back and flew above. Y/n tries again to focus from and picks up some life readings and goes to the source. As Y/n is getting closer to the unknown survivors, he pointed out his Revenant and unexpectedly met up with Lucy, Asia, Rossweisse, Happy, and Natsu. They were frightened by his appearance, assuming they're threats.

Natsu: Hey, easy!

Happy: Friendly, friendly!

Lucy: Wait! Don't shoot us!

Y/n: Get down!

Lucy, Happy, Asia, Rossweisse, and Natsu quickly ducked down, Y/n shot his Revenant's non-lethal shells, passed through them, and hit the mindless Ichiyas behind them. Y/n is relieved to see them unharmed.

Y/n: You alright?

Rossweisse: Y/n! You're here!

Asia: We're glad that you are okay.

Natsu: Thanks for saving us, bud.

Happy: Aye!

Y/n: You can thank me later when we're safe.

Lucy: Right. We have to go now.

They agreed to Lucy's choice, and they carefully went through the town without getting caught. They looked to see if more people had been turned into Ichiyas, and to their shocking discovery, they saw Yajima, Gray, Juvia, and Erza turned into Ichiyas. They quickly found a storage area and went in quickly and quietly. They compare notes about what happened from their point of view but can't figure out what causes the plague of monstrosity.

Y/n: So, any ideas on how this outbreak started?

Lucy: No. We're not sure.

Asia: What about Kuroka and Ur?

Rossweisse: Kuroka went to find the kids and any survivors while Ur is with Wendy and Carla.

Natsu: Let's hope that they're doing okay.

There is some faint noise coming from above, while Happy is pulling out a blanket with fish.

Lucy: Hey, what are you doing, cat?!

Happy: It's like buried treasure!

Unfortunately, Happy's antics cause the baggage to come tumbling down, which the mindless Ichiyas have been alerted to, went to the noise, and they spotted them. The Ichiyas are slowly chasing them down while they make their escape.

Natsu: Nice going there, pal!

Happy: Sorry, I can't help it!

Rossweisse: No time to punish him! To the sewer, quickly!

They tried with Rossweisse's suggestion and went down the sewerage pathways. They slowly walked around the sewer for a while. Until they stopped by Natsu.

Asia: Natsu, what is it?

Natsu: I hear something. It's close.

All of a sudden, they were frightened by the sewer lid being busted open and shocked to see Gajeel and Panther Lily being infected by the Ichiya virus.

Gajeel: This is where you were hiding, Salamander. Maaaan~

Panther Lily: No use hiding, Happy. Let me sniff you. Maaan~

Natsu: It's... Ichiya-Gajeel?

Happy: Or is it Gajeel-Ichiya?

Rossweisse and Lucy: Does that really matter?!

Y/n: No time to complain, run!

They started to run ahead fast. However, they noticed more mindless Ichiyas coming from different directions. They were almost surrounded.

Lucy: Oh no! We're trapped! We can't swim across!

Asia: What do we do now?!

Y/n: We have to go up!

Natsu: Great idea, Y/n! Lucy, climb on and be happy on her back to fly!

Happy: Aye!

Lucy: O-Okay!

Rossweisse: What about you, Y/n?!

Y/n: Leave that to me! Get ready!

Y/n quickly summons Latios and Latias for Asia and Rossweisse to ride on, Y/n shoots his Ki Blast upwards, causing a way to escape and Y/n forms his wings on his back.

Y/n: Now!

Y/n signals them to fly up the sky. They managed to escape from the sewer, but to their horror, they saw the entire town is infested by the mindless Ichiyas. Y/n noticed a distance and saw Kuroka, Chisato, Latina, and Grace running away from the horde of Ichiyas. Y/n flew fast towards them. He placed Chisato on his back and grabbed Kuroka in bridal position with Latina and Grace, and he resumed flying above with Natsu and the others.

Natsu: T-This is horrible... Magnolia is filled with Ichiyas!

Happy: I can't pull... You're too heavy!

Lucy: Don't you dare drop us, cat!

Latina; Mommies, I'm scared!

Grace: Me too!

Kuroka and Chisato hugged the kids to cover their faces.

Chisato: Shh. It's going to be okay.

Kuroka: You don't have to see this, sweeties.

Asia: I pray Wendy, Carla, and Ur made it out okay.

Carla: Natsu, everyone!

They turned their heads to see Wendy, Carla, and Ur riding on a dragon made of Ur's magic.

Ur: You guys are okay!

Wendy: Listen, we ran into Romeo earlier and apparently discovered to counter the Ichiyas!

Y/n: Wait, wasn't he with you?

Ur: No. They got him before he could tell us.

Rossweisse: If what he said is true, there should be an antidote to cure them all with a boost.

Natsu: I got it!

Carla: Do you have an idea?

Natsu: Lucy, let me go! Just hurry!

Lucy: It's something crazy, isn't it?

Natsu: Yeah!

Chisato: Y/n, go with him. You have an item that will help him.

Y/n: Right. Latios, Latias, keep Kuroka and the others safe.

Latios and Latias agree to Y/n, using their psychic powers to float Latina and Grace while Kuroka and Chisato went with Asia and Rossweisse. Lucy drops Natsu down, Y/n joins up with Natsu, and lands on the ground. Y/n and Natsu smirked.

Natsu: You ready?!

Y/n: You bet!

Y/n and Natsu are in their running position.

Y/n and Natsu: Here we... GO!

Y/n and Natsu have blast off running towards through the mindless Ichiyas. Luckily, the Ichiyas are very slow and clumsy as their advantage. Y/n did some parkour moves with his Flowmotion abilities while Natsu dodged them swiftly, and they continued to run ahead fast towards the guild hall. A few survivors were a bit confused about why Natsu planned to go there. Y/n and Natsu have made it to the guild hall, slammed the door open, readied themselves while the mindless Ichiyas alerted their presence, jumped from table to table and Natsu spots the Deodorizer Lacrima at the bar.

Natsu: Hey, there it is!

Y/n: Incoming.

Y/n and Natsu see the lightning coming towards them, swiftly dodges, and sees Laxus as an Ichiya.

Laxus: Maaan~. You've got a pretty parfum...

Y/n quickly toss the Holy Water item and give it to Natsu.

Y/n: Go. I'll distract him.

Natsu: Thanks!

Natsu went ahead while Y/n readied his stance and started taunting him.

Y/n: Bring it on sparky wimp, come and get me, if you can.

Laxus: Maaan~ I'll start with sniffing you first...

Laxus swung his fist towards him, but Y/n dodged it.

Y/n: Hmph, don't quit now. We just started.

Laxus is enraged, swinging his fists with lightning around him, and Y/n keeps swiftly dodging him. Y/n quickly spun and kicked him on his ribs. Laxus fell on his knee and gave an opening.

Y/n: Go for it!

Natsu: Get a sniff with this!

Natsu has sprayed the Deodorizer Lacrima with Y/n's item as a booster effect on Laxus' face, Laxus-Ichiya is melting away, and finally Laxus has turned back to normal. Y/n and Natsu have cheered for a moment while Laxus looks at them and slowly realizes what he went through.

Laxus: Wait... does that mean... I'm a...

Y/n: Sorry, Laxus, we'll explain later.

Natsu: Hey guys, it's time to go back to normal!

Natsu began to spray throughout the guild hall with the enhanced Deodorizer Lacrima. The plague of monstrosity Ichiya is melting away, and they have turned back to normal state. Most of the guild members were confused and a bit dazed about what they had been through.

Natsu: Alright, it's working!

Y/n: Sure, looks that way - Huh?

Y/n have snapped out and started to sense something coming from the entrance. Something landed on the ground and revealed that Irene, Heine, and Juliet are still infected with the Ichiya virus.

Irene: Sniff,sniff~ Let me sniff your parfum...

Heine and Juliet: Maaan~

Y/n equipped with his Rebellion's Oath. As they were about to fight, Lucy, Happy, Wendy, Carla, Kuroka, Asia, Rossweisse, and Ur landed next to Nastu and saw what's happening.

Wendy: Irene!

Lucy: Ah! We forgot about her!

Chisato: We need to separate them.

Y/n: I'll weaken Irene for a chance to cure them. You guys take care of Heine and Juliet to do the same.

Y/n channels his Ki and makes a shock wave to force them to be separated. Y/n is fighting Irene outside of the guild hall while Kuroka and the others are fighting Heine and Juliet inside. Heine and Juliet threw the first punch, luckily, Kuroka and Rossweisse swifty dodged it, they started to fight back, made their punches and kicks combos, spin kicks on their ribs, making Heine and Juliet unconscious and Ur made a cage with ice. While that happens, Y/n clashes his Keyblade with Irene's staff multiple times, dodging it, Irene strongly swung her staff, opening her hand to blast attack at Y/n, which Y/n blocked it on time and he skidded back a bit strong.

Y/n: 'So what Irene can do without holding back, even infected with the Ichiya virus, she gave everything she got. I hope she forgives me for what I'm about to do.'

Y/n kept clashing with Irene's staff until he saw an opportunity to counter with a punch and kicks on her ribs, which she skidded back and almost fell on her knee. Y/n focus his power, throw his Keyblade to perform a Strike Raid, which leaves Irene stunned. Y/n concentrated his Quicksilver with his Rebellion's Oath, readied his stance, and prepared for his new attack.

Y/n: Let's go, Lethal Frame!

Y/n unleashed his Quicksilver technique, stopping time for three seconds, dash forward to Irene, and dealt with five blows. As time resumes, Irene is taking damage, forced back inside, and collides with Heine and Juliet. Ur cast an ice magic to bind their arms and legs.

Y/n: Time for you to wake up. Now, Natsu!

Natsu: Coming right up!

Natsu sprayed the enhanced Deodorizer Lacrima on each of their faces, their Ichiyas are starting to melt away, and finally, Irene and her companions have been turned back to normal state.

(Battle theme ended.)

Ur releases her magic while Irene and the others are starting to wake up and feeling a bit dazed.

Irene: W-what? What happened?

Heine: Why do I feel like throwing up?

Juliet: Owie, my head hurts.

Chisato: We'll explain later. For now, you all need to rest.

Irene, Heine, and Juliet were a bit confused about what happened recently until they saw that almost everyone looked like Ichiya and slowly realized what they've been through, filled up with dread and nightmare fuel.

After that, Natsu and the others who survived this pandemic were lucky enough to fight through this crisis, sprayed around through Magnolia, and the town was cured. Most of the guild members were either feeling to puke out their stomachs or feeling depressed and dread within their souls. Or maybe it's a bit both. They were unable to talk about this.

Gray: A virus, huh? It's more like the apocalypse. Next time I see him, he's dead meat.

Juvia: I'm afraid you'll have to wait in line for that, dear.

Kuroka: *sighs* This has to be the worst experience based on the horror movie we went through, right, Darling?

Y/n: Tell me about it.

Lucy: How did it start in the first place? Does anyone know?

Chisato: According to the atrocious chemical that was leaked in the storm drainage, it was discovered a "pretty man" potion that hideous gnome have developed.

Erza: That's correct information, Chisato. I'm surprised how you are able to process it. That's a hilarious name to come with.

Lucy: Wow. And I find it a bit funny how you came up with that name, but I agree with you two.

Y/n: Well, Chisato is a nurse. She knows about health and chemistry for certain situations. It's impressive.

Latina: Wow, mommy is smart.

Grace: Yeah.

Chisato: Aww, thank you for the compliment, sweeties.

Carla: I can't believe that little troll caused such calamity in Magnolia.

Wendy: Yeah, but it could have been worse.

Yajima suddenly appears behind them.

Yajima: The Magic Council slapped that sucker, labeled as forbidden magic. Therefore, Ichiya is serving a hard time in prison.

To see Ichiya is suffering in prison while Doranbolt watches him as he sweat drops of uneasiness from what he has been through.

Ichiya: But, but... Maaan...

Back at the guild hall...

Gray: Yeah, well, he got off easy.

Juvia: I shudder to think what the world would be like if Natsu hadn't found that lacrima.

Ur: That guy is nothing but trouble for women.

They turned and saw Laxus sitting at the bar, depressed with a black aura around him, while Asia patted him to cheer him up as Latina and Grace did the same with Irene.

Irene: Oh, Y/n, I'm so sorry...

Latina: It's okay, Mommy. We're okay.

Grace: Yeah, Daddy is not mad.

Erza: Don't forget, there are many scars to heal as well. Especially to those unfortunate souls who turned into mindless Ichiyas.

Lucy: Doesn't that include you, Erza?

As Lucy hits the nail on Erza, she feels even more dreaded and nauseous thinking about it today.

Erza: Please don't remind me...

Panther Lily: I need therapy...

Levy: I need a hot bath and a shower...

Gajeel: I didn't think it was that bad...

Heine: I-I-I don't feel so good...

Juliet: M-M-Me too... Excuse us...

Heine and Juliet covered their mouths and rushed towards the ladies' room while the others cringed as they knew how they felt their pain.

Y/n: 'Pfft. I wonder if the readers and authors were feeling the same thing."

Y/n looked at you. The author paused this story and asked everyone.

A/n: If those who are infected as an Ichiya raise your hand here. If so, tell us about your life and how you feel about this.

They turned in the other direction to see Rossweisse rallies males, female wizards, and citizens alike who are enraged and blaming Ichiya for the recent outbreak.

Juvia: My goodness, it looks like most of them didn't take this very well.

Carla: Judging by their expressions, it clearly shows and tells.

Lucy: Anyway, we wouldn't be here without you guys, Natsu and Y/n, thanks.

Natsu: Well, you know.

Y/n: Yeah, no problem.

Erza: You don't have to be a pretty man...

Erza smiles, grabs Natsu's head, hugs, and slams him on her chest plate armor.

Erza: It's what the inside matters.

Natsu: Geez, back hand much?

Irene: I definitely agree with my daughter...

Irene smiles, grabs Y/n's head, hugs, and shoves him in her chest.

Irene: He's the greatest man in our eyes.

Kuroka, Ur, everyone smiled a bit at this moment, and Y/n asked everyone.

Y/n: Okay then, let's just agree to never discuss this, say Aye.

Everyone: Aye.

And so, another eventful day has ended. Everyone in Magnolia will soon forget about this horrific outbreak turning into Ichiyas. Y/n, Natsu, and the other survivors who have been through the pandemic and solved the mystery of which Ichiya is the culprit and sent to prison. Those who have been infected by Ichiyas will be traumatized for a while. They agreed to never discuss this. Wonder what the next day will bring to Y/n and Fairy Tail?

As their adventures continue...
