After Lyon, Rocker, Risley, and Ren gotten themselves a mess, Sora giggled lightly, "I can't believe Merle-kun would do that stunt," she said to her mother, who giggled, yet both mother and daughter felt sorry for those four at the same time. Precht slowly snickered to hold his laugh about Merle did to those four tripped over. Risley and Ren were arguing at each other, Lyon felt his entire mouth covered in ice and felt hurt, and Rocker nearly fell off from the punch. Jason and Cecil laughed so hard at this misperhaps, and like his younger sister and mother, Cecil also felt sorry for them, "Okay. I bite... That Pendragon really pulled that off!" Jason commented while laughing. Meanwhile Mavis, Ginny, Neel, Nashi, and Shiro drank the glass of cold water to ease their vomit. Yukino left the Sabertooth stands to get the glass of water for Sting, Rouge, and Damien. Laxus barely walked, while struggle to endure his motion sickness, he didn't have time to focus on Lacrima Vision, but he noticed Merle went to finish line, "He's... fast... urk!" he said to himself, while holding his sickness. "Oh my! Merle Pendragon from Triple Goddess made it to first that fast, his team earned 20 points as Triple Goddess retake the first place! Apparently, Risley, Lyon, Ren, and Rocker were knocked down! Laxus, Alex, and Damien are getting close to them!" Chapti announced through his microphone as the lacrima vision showed Merle, and the rest of competitors. Outside of Crocus, Larcade Dragneel finally arrived, he slowly smirked to see Grand Magic Game arena, "We will meet again, Natsu... to peaceful death," he said softly like he's talking to his demon "uncle", then he proceed walked towards the Crocus.
"... However, like my father, I am dark and dangerous warrior."
as Merle watched as Triple Goddess received 20 points then looked at the box where the other team members were and gave then a smug smirk. "i could get used to this" he said to himself as Soris held his hand over his mouth to keep from laughing but Sawyer was having a hard time stopping as did Alice but continued to watch Alex, Laxus and Damien
Simon was watching too when he suddenly felt something. it was like how Jedi felt a disturbance in the Force but this was like an icy chill down his whole spine so badly he shuddered audibly as well which Erza noticed"you ok?"she asked as Simon gazed around not being able to shake the feeling something was off "i'm not sure ... it's like ... i feel something is wrong ... but i also have the weirdest sense of déjà vu"
"Laxus .... i thought- urk ... i thought you could-" Alex said as he struggled to move and talk while trying to not get sick "t-turn into lightning" he said as Damien glanced up at him"y-you try using magic then ..."he said weakly as Alex nearly wobbled over the side but caught himself "ok ok ... i get the point"
"My name is Merle Pendragon, i am the fastest man alive. When i was only eight years old, my father was put into a coma by dark magic, then on my fifteenth birthday, an accident caused me to have magic. To the people of Camelot, I'm their prince, but together with the Wizard guild: Triple Goddess, i use my speed and power over kinetic energy to fight crime and save innocents throughout the realms. and one day, i'll find who nearly killed my father, and finally wake him up. i am Raiden"
Precht watched the game, and heard Simon talking about something was wrong, so he look at him, "Deja vu?" he asked him, and suddenly he sensed immense amount of magic. He frowned, then noticed Makarov, fully recovered Mavis, Yami and his sons, and Mirajane picked up powerful magic, "I'm sensing the magic that powerful. It can't be Mavis' son, not as I recall since the infant," he said to Simon, noticing the essence of magic wasn't match to August, but who else is powerful. Yami look back, then he looked at Makarov, "Makarov?""Investigate it, if the person might be dangerous, get away as you can and report to Magic Counsel immediately," he replied to Yami. He nodded, "Very well," he replied and looked at his sons, who were worried. He couldn't help, but smile at them, "I won't be long," he said to them before he dash off to investigate the source of magic. Laxus heard Alex said about his lightning body, he continue to struggle to run, "I can, if... if I wasn't too sick," he replied to Alex that he wasn't too focus, while running slowly, while the announcers were discussing about seven remaining contestants, and Risley won the second place and earned 8 point for Mermaid Heel. Meanwhile, Lacarde observed the Lacrima Vision, in much of his disappointing that Natsu wasn't in the game, but still know he's at the arena somewhere. Right before he steps towards Grand Magic Game, suddenly he sensed dark presence as he stopped. He kept his calm demeanor with a smirk, "Spying on me? Are you a member of a Fairy Tail or Triple Goddess?" he asked the person, who stepped out to reveal to be Yami. He held his half of combination keyblade, he glared at the demon, "Only my wife and kids are member of Fairy Tail, I'm just the Rune Knight. I don't know who the h*ll you are, but what do you want from them?" he replied to correct him, and asked him the question. To much of his surprise, Larcade unleash his light aura, "I am brought back from the dead all thanks to the woman who wants both Emrys and Mavis dead, and kill the my uncle, who always gets my father's attention! And steal Fairy Heart to send every single members of Fairy Tail and Triple Goddess to peaceful death!" he said to him before he unleash his light magic. Yami quickly got away from Pleasure Magic, however he realized someone brought Larcade back from the dead because someone wants to destroy Fairy Tail and Triple Goddess, "D*mnit, Hikari and kids will hunt him down because of necromancy. You are not the first person, who uses light for evil," he said to him, Larcade chuckled, "Oh... When I done with you, you will take me where Natsu is," he said to him before sending his pleasure magic at Yami, who evade it. However, he widen his purple eyes, and everything connects the dot, "You are Zeref's son, then that means, you are nephew of Natsu and older cousin of Nashi, Mick,and Neel."

"i keep forgetting you're an old man sometimes, Precht ... and about Mavis" Simon said shaking his head then watched Yami go off to investigate the source of the magic power"don't even think about it"Erza said sternly as Simon glanced at her. "i can't" was all he said before running off as Cy'la sighed rolling her eyes then looked at Precht and J'uko"c'mon ... we better make sure the 'Hero of Tython' doesn't get himself hurt"she said before looking at Erza and smirking taking off after Simon with J'uko behind her.
as soon as they went into the city streets, Simon extended his hand out and felt a powerful aura and quickly ran towards it instantly seeing Yami fighting some kind of priest. he could sense a powerful light coming from the other person but this felt malevolent and instantly activated his keyblade shaped Lightsaber and threw it at Larcade cutting of a strand of stray cloth before returning to him in a boomerang arc as Cy'la and J'uko activated their weapons as well "you know ... you're givin the ones who fight for the Light a bad name" Simon said
Merle watched Simon look upset and run off as soon as he came back to the stands and instantly looked down and pulled out his lacrima phone and sent out a text to everyone in his contacts which was Mavis, Alice, Sora, Nashi, and Soris that said 'possible danger. middle of town' and took off in a blur. when he got there he drew out his sword and stood next to Simon who glanced at him"you took your time"he quipped as a circle of orange energy appeared and Alice stepped through to join with Soris with his staff facing Larcade"who's this looser?"Alice asked making quick motions with her hands creating two golden magic circles then got into a martial arts move as they extended over her arms while Soris waved his hand over his crystal in his staff making it glow and a white fire emitted from his fingertips
as the other dragon mages were getting close to the finish line, Kazin had, unbeknownst to anyone at all, had one of the lacrima cameras enchanted to hover over to see the birth of the strongest alliance of powerful magical individuals; the Arcainists, as they stood to face Larcade
Precht didn't say anything to Simon for calling him "old man", after his friends left, he make a quick exchange glance at Erza before he taking off after them. At the same time, Mavis, Nashi, and Sora got the text from Merle, Nashi and Lucky wondered what could be a possible danger. Mavis looked at Nashi, she was about to leave, but Mira grabbed her arm, "Where are you going?" she asked her. Lucy and Neel looked at Nashi and Lucky, "Nashi, what's going on?" Neel asked her out of curiosity. Mavis pulled her arm away from Mira's grasp, "I will be back, I have to be sure if this isn't who I think it is," she replied to her mom, and grab Nashi and Lucky to use lightning body to the location. Lucy was worried, so she pulled out Gate of Lion Key and decide terminate her contract to Loke and request him to pass his key to Nashi, "Open! The Gate of the Lion! Leo!" Lucy chant to summon Loke, then he appeared in golden light. Loke gave her a flirty smirked with arms cross, "Hey Lucy, it's been 12 years since Fairy Sphere was broken, and hey there Neel and Mick," he greets Lucy, and greets Mick and Neel. Neel stared at Loke, recalled how flirtatious Loke really is, then he looked at Mick and Azazel with toothy grin, "Hey Mick, it's a big kitty who always flirts with mom," he cheeky said to his older brother. Loke was in dismay for calling "big kitty", Lucy earned an anime sweat drop. Sora looked at the message from Merle, she didn't want to leave the post because she wants to beat Jenny, but she didn't want anything happen to Merle. Hikari looked at her in concern, "Sora-chan, what's wrong?" she asked her, but Sora quickly took off, "I won't be long!" she called out and teleport to the location, leaving Hikari in worry. When Laxus reaches to finish line, unfortunately, he reached to 7th place, so he earned 2 points. He collapse to the ground, "N-Never again..." he muttered. "The dragon slayers reaches the finish line, and now Team Fairy Tail A and B dropped their place to 4th and 5th. Up next- Oh my, what's with the lacrima vision? It looks like both next generations of Fairy Tail and Triple Goddess fighting the person, it appears to be using a light," Chapal Lola announced, until he, Jason, and Yajima were shock to notice Lacrima Vision changed to fight in middle of the town. Laxus looked at Lacrima Vision and he widen his eyes, "What! Mavis!" he shouts, while every Fairy Tail members, Shiro, Winter, and Richard were shock. Yukino and Kagura broke their cold sweat as they recognized Lacarde, "That's...""... Zeref's son," two ladies recalled their fight against Lacarde and he was too powerful, and how he was claimed to be Zeref's son rather than a follower, including his last name that relates to Natsu. Meanwhile, Natsu, being a dense idiot, looked puzzled, but he felt like he knew him somewhere. "Nashi, Mick, and Neel huh. So that's Natsu's children, well Natsu should suffer like I was," Lacarde kept his calm demeanor to learn his cousins' name, Yami was weaken because of his limit for staying the close to light so long. Larcade decide to make Natsu suffer, so he was about to use his Pleasure magic at Yami to kill him, but suddenly he felt his stray of cloths cuts off by the boomerang. He dropped his smile, then he turned his attention to Simon and his friends, he noticed Simon's Fairy Tail insignia, he regain his smile. He listened to Simon talking about giving his light a bad name, "Fairy Tail, it has been 14 years," he muttered in amusing tone. Merle, Alice, and Soris appeared, Lacarde senses both Alice and Soris' magic and recalled Arachne mentioned about killing Merlin and Mavis. When Alice asked who he was, Lacarde didn't seems to fazed, "That make sense why she wanted me to annihilate Emrys, I heard about him from Father after all. I will take it you two are his children," he mentioned Arachne, and heard about Merlin from Zeref, and figured out both Soris and Alice were Merlin's children. Yami groaned and gripped his injured arm, he have to warn the kids, "He's son of Zeref, and he's after Natsu's life!" he warn them about Lacarde's objective to kill Natsu. Precht widen his grey blue eyes to learn about Larcade, but he still recognized his magic and something was off, "Zeref's son, but that's-" he said as he activated his light whip. Suddenly his words cut off, when two female voices begin to shout, "Fire/LightningDragon Iron Fist!" Nashi and Mavis shouts with their father's signature move to punch cloaked with fire and lightning at Lacade's back. This caught him in surprise, but stumbled forward. Nashi and Mavis backed away with their own element aura. Lucky flew down between Mavis and Nashi. Sora teleported and gasped to see her dad injured, "Dad!" she shouts and kneeled down to cast her curaga magic to heal him. Yami groaned, then glared at Lacarde, "Nashi, he's-!""Oh I already know who he is, and why he's after my dad," Nashi replied to Yami, yet spoken like she's familiar with the demon, while glared at Lacarde. Mavis was terrified of his magical source, however, she, Yami, Sora, and Precht looked at Nashi in confusion. Lacarde observed the kids, then his orange eyes laid on Nashi as he recognized her rosy pink hair and her scarf. He slowly smirked at her, "It is a pleasure to finally meet my cousin, from that man said, you must be Nashi Dragneel. You don't look like Natsu, save your pink hair," he greets her. Sora, Precht and Mavis looked at Lacarde in confusion, then they look shock, after Sora finished healing her father, "Cousin!?" they shouts at the same time to learn they are fighting Nashi's powerful cousin. Nashi grits her teeth, then she pulled her fleuve d'étoiles and activated it to similar to river of star, "You may have same family name as mine... but you are just the failed demon that my disgraced uncle tried attempt to revive my dad! If you viewed me and my brothers as cousin, so be it!! But... I won't let you kill my dad, Larcade Dragneel!!!" she revealed his name and revealed his main objective. Sora, Precht, and Mavis were complete shock to learn Lacarde's name and he shared his family name as Dragneel, and his main objective, kill Natsu. Lacarde didn't seems to fazed from his cousin's word, so he kept his sinister smile, "So, this is where you and your friends die in peaceful death, Nashi. Maybe, your corpse will draw Natsu out, so I will show father I am the ultimate mage."
"grab Mr. Oblivion and get him out of here" Simon said turning to Cy'la and J'uko who nodded and ran over to the now cured member of the Rune Knights"we'll get him to safety, you all just-""kick this guys a$$!"they both said before getting Yami away from the area just as something like a crack in a mirror appeared and the Arcainists and Larcade were gone
Merle listened calmly as everything was explained about Larcade but only blinked lowering his sword a bit and rolled his eyes looking over at Alice "well he's obviously bonkers, you mind?" he asked as Alice smirked"not a problem"she said before making a few hand gestures and her magic circles started glowing. Suddenly what seemed like the cracking of a mirror appeared behind Alice and covered the whole area surrounding the Arcainists and Larcade"the Mirror Dimension"she said as he voice echoed"no matter how powerful your magic is, Larcade ... nothing can affect the real world from in here"she said as Merle smirked at this revelation "nothing huh?" he said as Simon started catching on and spun his lightsaber around"you know what that means?"he said before requiping into his Seraphim armor and five other keyblades appeared."it means, we can actually cut loose"Soris said as he was surrounded in white fire and his eyes glowed a brilliant blue.
Merle held his sword tighter as lightning began to crackle and sped to Larcade and started slicing at him in a twister of lightning around him before Simon jumped in the air and made ten more keyblades appear around him and shot all, but his lightsaber, at him. next, Soris was chanting in Elvish before slaming his staff on the ground creating a wave of energy at the demon before Alice drew her sword and held it up with her forefinger and middle finger of her other hand touched it at the center of the flat of the blade and a swirl of white ethereal magic appeared around her"i call upon the power of the Blade of Myrtenaster, come forth!"she said before stabbing the sword onto the ground and an ethereal figure of a a giant armed knight appeared and plunged its sword at Larcade
"My name is Merle Pendragon, i am the fastest man alive. When i was only eight years old, my father was put into a coma by dark magic, then on my fifteenth birthday, an accident caused me to have magic. To the people of Camelot, I'm their prince, but together with the Wizard guild: Triple Goddess, i use my speed and power over kinetic energy to fight crime and save innocents throughout the realms. and one day, i'll find who nearly killed my father, and finally wake him up. i am Raiden"
"Sorry about Neel, but I'm going to terminate our contract and pass your key to Nashi," Lucy apologize to Loke, and request him to pass his key to her daughter, leaving Loke stunned. He pushed his sunglasses a bit, "Lucy, are you sure you want to break our contract? You know, if you do that there is no turning back," he asked her to see if she doesn't have any regret. Lucy lowered her head as her tears creeped down from her cheek to her chin, while Neel watched the Lacrima Vision, "Yes, but Nashi only has Aquarius key. I don't know who this guy is, look what he did to Yami," she replied as she sobbed about losing her key. Loke made his expression look sad, he looked at the vision, he looked soleum, just as Neel spoken out, "Larcade Dragneel does remind me of character name Cicada..." Neel paused and grinned at Mick and his friends, "I called it, it's official, he's Cicada," Neel childishly nicknamed Larcade, "Cicada". Ginny and Orpheus facepalmed, Loke and rest of Fairy Tail looked at Neel in shock, "He has Natsu's family name!""He claimed to be Zeref's son and want to kill dad, but Nashi and I knew he's just a demon," Neel explains to them casually. This doesn't make Lucy feel better, Loke frown and looked at Lucy, "Lucy, now it's the right time to release me and I will save your daughter," he said to her, yet treating Nashi like she's a princess. Lucy nodded and enchant the spell to break Leo's contract as Loke was freed, she pass Gate of Lion Key to him, "I have a final request as a friend... please take good care of her and my sons, tell her I am passing your key to her, and treat you well as a friend" she request Loke to look after Nashi and her brothers as she cried. Loke smiled and clinched his key, "I will princess," he replied before he speeds off to Nashi's location. Yami got the help from J'uko and Cy'la, then he looked at Sora, "Sora, whatever you do," he called out his daughter as she looked at him, "Be careful," he added to be cautious about Larcade. Sora smile and nodded, "I will, thank you for a warning dad," she replied and focus on Larcade. After Yami was away with Cy'la and J'uko, Alice did the magic circle and kids were in Mirror Dimension. Sora summoned Lunar Flower and take the stance and prepare to boost the light for her friends. Larcade listened to Alice about his magic cannot affect the real world, he kept his smirk, "I will show you why I am ultimate mage," he commented. As Merle's sword start slicing him, Larcade pulled the larger cross to block the sword, but shows the resistance. He uses his finger to deflect Simon's keyblades away from him, and he slide Merle's sword away to let Merle stumble across Soris's energy wave by using the reflex. Sora changed her keyblade into spear form dash towards the demon, and thrust her spear at him as she is going to skewer him. Larcade's reflex gets best of him, so he dodged her and caused her to stumble upon Alice's giant armed knight. This caught her off guard as she quickly teleport before she could get impact. Larcade look barely scratch, Precht and Nashi's whip mastery wrapped around his wrist as he look surprised, Mavis begin to use her take over, "Take-Over: Belladonna!" she cast her magic that her appearance drastically change to dark fairy form. Her dark fairy wings fluttered up, she lifted her hand to aim at him, "Nightshade!" she cast her dark magic to manipulate the plant to wrap it around his legs as the nightshade begin to bloom. Larcade seems to have a little effect with the poison, "Have you all forgotten.... I am the ultimate mage," he remind them with arrogance, he pulled Precht's inactive whip hard enough to throw him towards Mavis as they crashed at each other letting out the "oof!" Larcade focus on Nashi as he threw the large cross at her, Nashi barely dodged it, it cut her upper arm as she screamed. Larcade moved his legs and speeds off towards Nashi to injure her gravely by swip his finger to cut her thighs and shoulder, while the cross was thrown across the future Arcanist, just as Lucky got away from the cross. Larcade's unstable nature revealed itself, before he stomp her side, while Nashi crowled herself, "This is what my father did to me before he killed me! I will thank that Spider Witch for chosen me to kill Natsu!"
as everyone flew backwards from Larcade who used their own attacks against them. hearing what his 'father' did to him and hearing Nashi's pain as he kicked her, Merle closed his eyes before a memory sparked in his mind
he was seven, about to turn eight and he was with his father, Remy LeBeau, who was training him how to use a sword "i didn't know you could fight, dad" he said as Remy chuckled"not de best at swords bu' ... yeah, heck one time i even fought with a team"he said as Merle dropped his wooden sword and ran to him "you never talked about your old life ... before mom and me" he said before Remy looked at his son and smiled flipping his wrist showing a playing card had appeared. Merle barely had time to blink before the card turned purple and was thrown at a practice dummy which then exploded "WOAH!" Merle said with a huge smile "how'd you do that? i thought momma said you didn't have magic" he asked making Remy wink at him and held a finger to his lips"that's cause it ain't ... that team i toldja about? they could do a lot of stuff like this: one could control the weather, one could shoot a beam of energy through his eyes, and one even had retractable metal claws stronger than anything in the world. they even had names to go with their powers, Storm, Cyclops, and Wolverine were theirs"he said as Merle's eyes lit up "oh wow! what was yours?" he asked as Remy picked him up and sat him in his lap"Gambit ... these powers ... they were because we weren't exactly human, i'm what they called a Mutant"he said as Merle thought and looked up at him "am ... am i one too?" he asked as Remy shrugged"we might know on your birthday ... i got a friend who can find other Mutants, but listen, and this is very important son: when you find out you are one then you can't fight it ... you can't resent it ... if you do, it could hurt you or hurt others. promise me ... promise you'll embrace who you are"
"yeah ...." Merle said as he slowly got up from the ground with his eyes being hidden by his hair "i promise dad" he said as an image of Gambit stood behind him with a smirk and glowed purple before Merle sparked with blue lightning "ultimate mage?" he said speaking up before holding his hand out and shot a blast of lightning at him and rushed over to Larcade and placed his hand on the cross before it went back to the demon "then lets see how you fight against a Mutant!" he said as the electricity he was discharging caused the cross to turn purple charging it with explosive energy.
Alice smirked seeing this and got up herself and caused magic circles around her arms "don't forget about a Master of the Mystic Arts" he said before moving her hands together creating a magical energy rope and swung it like a whip at Larcade aiming for his leg.
Simon got up as well and reached out with the force moving all the weapons back to their owners and ignited his lightsaber before leaping into the air and attacked Larcade's back "or about the two Jedi"
when Soris got up, a grey mist surrounded him before he became an old man and thrust his staff out to attack Larcade on a mental level "or ..." he said in his elderly voice as the shadows of his wings started to appear behind him "one of the Istari"
"My name is Merle Pendragon, i am the fastest man alive. When i was only eight years old, my father was put into a coma by dark magic, then on my fifteenth birthday, an accident caused me to have magic. To the people of Camelot, I'm their prince, but together with the Wizard guild: Triple Goddess, i use my speed and power over kinetic energy to fight crime and save innocents throughout the realms. and one day, i'll find who nearly killed my father, and finally wake him up. i am Raiden"
Larcade continue to kick Nashi senseless, until he heard Merle shouts as a Mutant causing him to turn around and caught his cross, yet noticed purple marking and blue lightning before the purple marking made it explode and hit the blue lightning. When it's cleared, he seems to have a scratch. Alice's magical energy caught his leg in much of his, Precht and Mavis slowly got up as Precht lifted his hand to aim at Larcade's wrist, "Or about two co-founders of Fairy Tail... Chain Magic!" he said as he smirked and shoot long chains from his hands and it caught both leg and left wrist and hold Larcade off. Mavis fluttered her black wings in front of Precht, Lucky flew to Nashi and try to help her up, "Or about half fae... Nightshade Pollen!" she shouts as she lifted her hands to blow the pollens that contains poison into Larcade's face. He coughed at the same time he got attacked by Simon's lightsaber as he winced. He witnessed Soris turn into old man and saw the shadows of his wings. "Or about Pegasus Knight!" Sora shouted from high above, she was covered in wind and dive down with her spear pointing at him. Larcade look up moved out her way, but Sora's Jump ability created wind shockwave that wounded him before she back away. She looked at Nashi, and noticed the explosion like she saw back in Merle's room. Larcade frown upon the Arcanist, "Then you will lose one, that is my cousin," he said to them grimmly as he lifted his cross and attempt to kill Nashi, in much of Dragneels horror, and Nashi slowly woken up, but suddenly, "Regulus Impact!" the male voice cast his magic as Larcade lifted his head to see a large face of the lion punched his face, that send him back away from Nashi. Precht, Lucky, and girls widen their eyes to no other than Loke, he smiled softly and Nashi lifted her head to see him and she look surprise, "Loke,""I made it just in time, I asked Aquarius to opened her gate for me to reach to your location," He said to her, before he helped her up, which Nashi felt the key around her palm. Sora lifted her hand to aim at Nashi, "Curaga!" she cast her healing magic to heal Nashi's wounds, Larcade later found out Sora can use her healing magic or as he think she is. After Loke let go of her, Nashi looked at her palm to see Gate of Lion Key, Lucky was shock and looked at him, "Mr. Loke, don't tell me Ms. Lucy terminate her contract with you!" he shouts at him, Loke smiled and placed his hands in his pocket, "She did, and wants me to pass my key to her daughter as new ownership. Nashi, I promise your mom that I will look after you, your brothers, and your partners, as a friend," he explains to Lucky about Lucy's terminated her contract with Loke, and Nashi learned he promised her mother to look after her, Lucky, Neel, Mick, and Azazel which she begin to cry and clinch her fist tight against Gate of Lion Key, "... Mom," she sobbed and wipe her tears and focus on Larcade as she glared at him, "Remember Loke, I'm not using you as tool or shield, we are working together to stop Larcade," her words made Loke smile, "You really do have your mother's treating Celestial Spirit as a friend attitude. I would prefer Cicada as Neel called him, sounds fitting because he wants to kill you and Natsu," Loke replied and called Larcade "Cicada", Nashi and Lucky earned anime fall, while Sora and Mavis muttered about Neel's childish nicknames. Larcade seems surprise about Neel called him "Cicada", but regain his calm demeanor, "Cicada? Huh, I like it, like I will give that healing mage girl a peaceful rest," he said as he liked the name Cicada, then focus on Sora, who look alert. However, Nashi and Lucky feared the worse, Nashi looked at Sora, "Valkyrie!" she shouted, Larcade's both hand showed the white orb close it to unleash his Pleasure magic at Sora's radius. Sora widen her bright blue eyes as she saw white tentacles wrapped around her as she screamed. Loke was shock, "Light magic," he said and glared at Larcade, who glanced at everyone, "Try to save her or stop me, I will make her death quicker than this," he warn them, that he will quickly kill Sora, if they interfere. Unknownist to him as Sora slowly collapse, Nashi, Lucky, and Mavis break their cold sweat, not just Larcade, but they were deeply terrified of Sora. Precht sensed Sora was getting darker and darker, he looked at Mavis, "Mavis?""He wouldn't do that, he will trigger her darkness." Mavis said in fear, remembered how intimidated Oblivion really were when anyone provoke them to unleash their darkness.
Merle smirked as he saw everyone team up against Larcade but then as soon as Loke arrived and told them Neel named Larcade 'Cicada', Merle couldn't help but chuckle "looks like this is gonna be a common thing, huh?" he said as he nodded to Sora to say 'good going' with the healing spell but was quickly surprised when Cicada used his pleasure magic at Sora and didn't know what to do to save her but then noticed something odd going on with her and heard from Mavis "wait ... what darkness?" he asked in confusion but then winced a bit and his jaw dropped when he looked at Simon. his eyes were radiating pure gold, whites and all and even had a golden aura around him as his armor started to change into something different and twirled his lightsaber before slicing it through the tentacles burning it with a righteous light "Simon you could have-""Ectu motura ... k'dwini hi Ashla"Simon said but it sounded like there were multiple voices speaking at once "S-Simon?" he said but 'Simon' quickly kicked Cicada in the chest making a golden light pop out when he did"ATTACK WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT!"he said as Merle caught on and let his body crackle with blue lightning shooting Larcade in the back in a continuous stream while Soris ran over to Sora and checked on her before placing a hand on her forehead and muttered a spell that would hopefully give her balance with her light and darkness before standing up and shooting a blast of white fire at Cicada. Alice used her sword to draw a magic circle in the air that shot a blast of Dimentional energy at their enemy while Simon tried to hold him in place with his lightsaber
"My name is Merle Pendragon, i am the fastest man alive. When i was only eight years old, my father was put into a coma by dark magic, then on my fifteenth birthday, an accident caused me to have magic. To the people of Camelot, I'm their prince, but together with the Wizard guild: Triple Goddess, i use my speed and power over kinetic energy to fight crime and save innocents throughout the realms. and one day, i'll find who nearly killed my father, and finally wake him up. i am Raiden"
"Do you have any idea, if you use your light magic and unbalanced Ms. Sora's light and darkness, the worse can happen!?" Lucky shouts at Cicada about Sora's balance between light and darkness will be upsetting. Larcade didn't seems to bother, but kept his smirk at Lucky. Like Merle, Precht was puzzled, "Mavis, what's going on?""Because of their parents' ancient host, Sora and her brothers had to keep them in balance by their emotions, if either light or dark magic, like Larcade's light magic for example, hits Sora in one hit, nothing will happen, but if it's too much, it will make her either one of ancient host known as The Darkness or Angelus will take over their mind. Larcade's light magic made Sora's darkness upset," Mavis explains to Precht about Sora and her brothers' balance between light and darkness, just as Simon shouts and Soris rush to Sora's aid to try and restore her balance. Mavis hope this will work, then she and Precht focus on Cicada as Mavis transformed back and crack of yellow lightning aura around her, "What about Sora?""Simon cuts off Cicada's magic, so she will recover soon, but hopefully Gandalf will restore her balance," Mavis replied once again before she and Precht use their magic to attack Cicada. Unfortunately, they didn't know Sora's darkness gives in as her finger begins to twitch. Cicada felt the pain from Simon, he wasn't impressed about Simon, while dodging their attack, "Seems like I killed that healing mage, that's good she won't heal all of you," he commented, this made Nashi really mad, "You don't know all of us!" she yelled at him and burst in flame, "Fire Dragon Sword Horn!" she cast her fire magic and attempt to headbutt Cicada. Loke was stunned, while Lucky snickered, "She really does have Natsu and Lucy's tempers," he commented to compare Nashi's bad temper with her parents, "Aye sir... like father and daughter she is also stubborn, you should have seen Mr. Neel, when you have a chance, except he always hyper and childish," Lucky agreed and mention Neel's hyperactive and childish nature. Loke shook his head with a smile, then joins the fight as his fist glowed in light, "Regulus Impact!" he shouts and joins the fight with his friends. Lucky begin to cheer for them, while Cicada dodged and took the hit from his opponents as he stumbled backward. He slowly smirked at those children, "You all should get some peaceful slumber, R.I-" his words cuts off when noticed Sora's body wasn't there, "Where is that healing mage's body?" he asked them, then suddenly he sensed darkness behind him as Sora speaks to his ear in hush tone, "Behind you," she whispers to him, which Cicada startled and turned around only sees Sora with darkness aura. He steps back, felt terrified as she gave him a devilish smirk, which Lucky, Nashi, and Mavis find her terrifying, while Precht only widen his gray blue eyes, "How is that possible!? My pleasure magic can kill more than 10 humans! What are you?" he questioning her and wonder if she is even a human. Sora lifted her right hand up, her bright blue eyes gave him intimidation, "Thanks to your light magic, you triggered your worst nightmare, so are you afraid of dark," she devilishly taunted him before she uses her darkness to engulf Cicada. Sora sighed and regained her balance, thank goodness for Soris' magic will quickly rebalance herself, she and her friends can hear him scream before the wind pushed him away. Cicada's face look like he have seen a terror.
"... However, like my father, I am dark and dangerous warrior."
to say everyone shocked was an understatement, but Alice was the first to recover"geez ... remind me to never get on your bad side"she said snapping Merle out of his shock to see Larcade in fear then ran over at lightning speed and gave him an uppercut "nice one, Sora" he said as Simon leaped up and summoned a keyblade along with his lightsaber and made an 'x' formation slash at Larcade. Soris meanwhile was chanting in elvish to give everyone a power boost while his sister landed next to Merle and nodded. they both stood side by side and summoned as much power as they could muster before shooting a blast of both blue lightning and golden energy at Cicada creating a Unison Raid
"My name is Merle Pendragon, i am the fastest man alive. When i was only eight years old, my father was put into a coma by dark magic, then on my fifteenth birthday, an accident caused me to have magic. To the people of Camelot, I'm their prince, but together with the Wizard guild: Triple Goddess, i use my speed and power over kinetic energy to fight crime and save innocents throughout the realms. and one day, i'll find who nearly killed my father, and finally wake him up. i am Raiden"
"This is what happen when you mess with Oblivion's siblings," Nashi finally said to them, Sora smiled softly after Merle praised her, "Why thank you, and I may have think my darkness gave Cicada too nightmarish," she thank him and looked at Larcade because she may have put him too nightmarish. Larcade's sanity slowly came back to his senses and got the uppercut by Merle. Mavis smiled as she let her lightning aura surge around her, "Work with Loke with your wind, Nashi and I will teach him some manner," she replied and gave Nashi a grin, "Let's show him the power of dragon!""I'm fired up!" Nashi uses her dad's catchphrase as Mavis and Nashi activate their dragon force to show their scale like under their eyes. Waiting for their opportunity, Loke and Sora felt Soris' magic boost up. Larcade have no choice to dodge the Unison Raid as he look shock, "Unison Raid," he said in shock and took the hit and they all go through his durability. Sora and Loke got their chance, "Loke-san!" she cast her teleport magic to teleport Loke to Cicada's back, "You got it! Regulus Gatling Impact!"" he cast his regulus magic to repeatedly punches Larcade and releasing brilliant beams of light to send him flying towards Sora. She snickered as she summoned her Lunar Flower keyblade before she pointed up to the sky, "Heavenly Wind!" she cast her wind magic, similar to tornado, the great wind blast Cicada up to the sky. Larcade couldn't understand, how did he be beaten by kids. Precht sensed what Mavis and Nashi will do, so he backed away and used his force to pull his friends away, Sora and Loke looked at Precht in confusion, "They will overdone it," he warn them. "Lucky!" Nashi called her partner, he summoned his wing and flew to Nashi's back and carried her up to the sky, "You are planning this since you found out he wanted to kill your dad," he said to her and uses his max speed to catch up to endless sky. Nashi gave him a signature grin, like she's full of excitement, "Yeah I do!" she shouts, and Lucky will let that slide. Mavis raise both of her hands in the air at her side and generates electricity between their open, facing palms. Her might rapidly shaped into the form of a massive spear composed of lightning. She looked up and held the lightning spear to aim at Cicada, knowing this won't kill him due to his durability, "Lightning Dragon's Heavenward Halberd!" she cast her lightning dragon slayers magic before she hurled her lightning spear at him. Larcade got electrocuted once it contacted, Nashi ignites her entire body with fire, "Let's not forget the power of Celestial Spirit and Fire Dragon Slayer! Let's go Vibe!" she shouts at Larcade, who he turned around to see his "cousin". He clasped his hands all together to attempt to kill her, Lucky knew this move as he snickered, "Aye sir! Here we go Ember Celica!" he replied and dive down towards Cicada. Cicada uses his pleasure magic to kill her, "Light will kill your fire, Nashi,""Not even this, Cicada! Hidden Fire Form - Crimson Lotus: Phoenix Blade!" she shouts at him, gotten use to call him Cicada, and headbutted through Cicada's Pleasure Magic, and her fire pierce through Larcade's torso as he took the massive hit and sends them down to the ground creating destructive impact. Although, this burnt Lucky's clothes completely and Mavis and Sora quickly covered themselves after the flame somehow scorched their dress, in much of Loke's delight. Sora was completely stunned, Precht looked unamused and brooded, "Makarov might have a massive heart attack, if he sees this."
as soon as the fight was over, Simon returned to normal looking slightly confused but instantly slapped his hand over his eyes seeing Sora and Mavis' state of dress. Merle looked away too slightly flustered before turning to face Alice "right, erm Alice c-" he said but then was suddenly slapped across his cheek and his face was beat red. Apparently Mavis, Lucy and Sora weren't the only ones with wardrobe issues as Nashi's attack caught Alice up in it too who was covering herself blushing crimson with her hand still out from the slap"don't look!"she said as Merle turned around rubbing his cheek "s-sorry ... here" he said before removing his father's trench coat and handed it to her without looking. Her face softening a bit, Alice took it and quickly put it on and closed it up before glaring at Nashi"right ... NEXT TIME WARN US YOU FLAME BRAIN! UNLIKE THE FULBUSTERS, I'D RATHER NOT BE NAKED IN PUBLIC!"she said before crossing her arms "well ... at least no one else-" Merle stated before throwing his lightsaber up and destroyed the lacrima vision camera that was in with them making Alice shudder in embarrassment "ah ... um ... let's take you guys to Miss Lucy so Virgo can get you ladies a change of clothes ... um, Mavis maybe your illusion magic can mask you all till then? he asked as Simon walked over to the unconscious Cicada and got out a canister of Carbonite and sprayed him with it to case him in stone"just leave him there Simon ... no one can get out of here without one of these"Alice said before producing her sling-ring and rotated her hands to create a swirling portal of golden dimensional energy and let it sweep over them to bring them all back to their dimension.
Merlin was busy editing the memories of everyone watching so they only saw Cicada's defeat before sighing to himself
Alex was quickly running with Erza over to where the Arcainists were as Erza quickly hugged Simon knocking his head into her armor"that was way to dangerous! I'm so glad your safe!"she exclaimed as Alex smiled "you all were quite the team ... that commenter Jason i think might be loosing his mind over all the 'coolness' we all saw" he said as Igneel showed up and slapped Nashi's back"NOW THAT WAS HAVING A FIRE IN YOUR BELLY! BWAHAHAHA!
"My name is Merle Pendragon, i am the fastest man alive. When i was only eight years old, my father was put into a coma by dark magic, then on my fifteenth birthday, an accident caused me to have magic. To the people of Camelot, I'm their prince, but together with the Wizard guild: Triple Goddess, i use my power over kinetic energy to fight crime and save innocents throughout the realms. and one day, i'll find who nearly killed my father, and finally wake him up. i am Raiden"
Lucky fell off Nashi's back and landed on Cicada's face, before he rolled off beside him. Realized his clothes were missing because of Nashi's fire, he saw Mavis, Sora, and Alice state of dress and destruction she caused. He gave her a disapproval look, "You couldn't help it are you?" he pointed out with snark tone, Nashi got up and was about to argue with him, but Alice yelled at her for not warning them. Nashi turned around to see girls' scorched dress, she sweat dropped, but ticked as the vein popped out of her head, "WHAT DID YOU CALL ME, DIMENSIONAL HEAD!?" she yelled at Alice. Lucky sighed and placed his paw on out cold Cicada's head, suddenly the vibe caused him to see Larcade's memory through his eyes, he can see just like his vision showed him earlier. This time he can hear Larcade, a large looking demon, and crystal ball with image of Arachne Gorgon. He can hear her clearly, he can see Larcade's sinister smile faded with hint of anger, "While you were gone, I have a lot of information about Natsu. You see, he has a family he loved and cared for, unlike your creator. It's a shame he never acknowledged his own child, and his creations. However, I will make you a deal... If you kill every single members of Fairy Tail and Triple Goddess, that includes Emrys and Mavis, then Zeref will finally acknowledged you as strongest and ultimate mage, not your uncle. Although, if you wish to kill Natsu first, I will allow you to do so, but I want both Emrys and his younger half sister dead," he listens to her, then he widen his eyes in horror that Arachne's gave him a mission to annihilate every single members of Fairy Tail and Triple Goddess, if he kills Natsu first. Lucky gasped and got out of his vibe as he back away. Nashi took a notice, "Lucky? Did you see-" her words cuts off when Loke spoken out as he loosen his tie, "Umm Nashi, you don't mind burn little bit more of fire to reveal-""Forget it! Force Closed!" Nashi cuts him off by swiping his key to force Loke back to Celestial World, not want any more trouble. Precht didn't want to look at both Mavis and Sora, who were relieved that Loke forcefully sent back. Mavis listens to Merle, then she nodded, "Right," she replied and cast her illusion magic to cover her, Alice, and Sora's clothes temporary until Lucy will summon Virgo for Celestial Wardrobes. The illusion clothes made girls remove their arms, Sora looked at boys with a bright smile, "Okay boys, you can look now," she said to them. Lucky frown deeply, his vision was different to seeing a future, so he looked at Cicada suspiciously, "Could this vision of mine manifest itself to see the past by one touch?" he thought about his vision, suspecting if he touch Larcade, he can see the past. He placed his paw on his chin, "I better ask mother about this," he thought about asking Carla, since he possess her special ability for Exceed, just as Simon sprayed Cicada with carbonite to stone. Lucky, Precht, Sora, Mavis, and Nashi find themselves back to Crocus, only for Nashi got her back slapped by her adopted grandpa, she turned around and gave him a signature grin, "Did you see what I did to 'cousin'," she asked him, just as Lucy, Natsu, and Neel hugged Nashi. "We all did Nashi, you really kicked his a**, but I felt like I know him somewhere," said Natsu enthusiastically, but he couldn't remember Larcade. Neel looked at Natsu and tilting his head, "Cicada wants to kill you, dad," he pointed out, Lucy knows, and Natsu was puzzled for a while, and this clicked his head, "WHAT!?" Lucy looked at girls as she got up, "I know, I will summon Virgo and you will get new clothes," she said and pulled out Gate of Maiden key, "Open! The Gate of the Maiden! Virgo!" she enchanted her spell to summon Virgo. The pink hair maid with shackle around her wrist appear before Lucy with maid position, "You called Hime?" she greets her master. Sora and Mavis were surprised to see Virgo, Lucy smiled at her, "Hi Virgo, I need three girls and one male exceed celestial wardrobes to replace their damaged dresses," she requested her for replacement clothes. Virgo observed Lucky and three teenage girls like she observed their three sizes and height, "Yes Hime," she replied monotone and disappeared back to celestial world by golden light, then few seconds later, she returned with neatly folded clothes, "Please follow me, then you can tell me is it time for punishment," she said to them, then ask for punishment. Sora and Mavis were puzzled about Virgo wanted the punishment, but Lucy waved it off, "Don't ask," she commented, then girls and Lucky followed Virgo to alley way. Only Nashi and Neel knows Virgo's weird habit for asking a punishment. It didn't take long as Sora, Mavis, and Lucky (one Happy wore) walked out. Sora and Mavis starting to liking their new clothes, just as Mira and Laxus appeared and hugged Mavis, while Sora's brothers and Jason appeared to crash against her as they were glad they are safe from Lacarde.
