11 Erigor

Clover during the Guild Conference

??? : Makarov, it must be great for you to have such enthusiastic mages ! I heard you took out another group of respected people.

An elderly, bald, and cross-dressing man is speaking to a tiny old man. He is seen wearing a purple spaghetti-strap shirt accessorized by a gold and fuchsia hoop necklace, and a vertical-striped pink and purple shorts. He also completes his look with red lipstick and blush on each cheek. He also has on his back small, white wings.

Makarov : Ah, you are talking about my new recruit Lucy ! She's great ! Her body is so bouncy Master Bob.

Bob : Ah, you dirty pervert !

???: You find that amusing, Makarov ?

A slim man of average height, who appears to be in his late fifties or early sixties is shouting back at Makarov. He has mildly squared face which is covered in several wrinkles, specifically at his mouth's sides, below his eyes and on his forehead. Despite his seeming age, however, his hair is kept in a youthful style, almost reaching down to his shoulders in a straight cut. Covering the man's eyes is a pair of sunglasses. His figure is covered by a simple set of dark clothes, namely a plain T-shirt and a pair of pants. Alongside them, however, he dons a distinctive headgear, being a dark hat reminiscent in shape of those worn by fictional warlocks and witches, possessing a wide brim and a torn top pointing backwards. Circling the hat is a lighter band sporting massive, rounded spikes, and is virtually identical accessory that comes in the form of a collar aound his neck.

Makarov : What are you talking about Guild Master of Quatro Cerberus Gold Mine.

Gold Mine: Being enthusiastic is fine, but they are going too far. Some council members are afraid that Fairy Tail will someday crush an entire city you know.

Makarov : Me, I would like to be crushed … BY LUCY'S BODY AHAHAHA !

Bob : Oh, stop it ! Don't go fiddling with your own mages.

Bird : Master Makarov ! Master Makarov ! A letter from Mirajane.

Makarov : Thank you good job.

Bird: It's nothing.

Makarov then drew a infuse eternano in the letter letting it appeared a magic circle showing a smiling Mirajane.

Mirajane : Master, I hope the regular meeting is going well.

Makarov : Guys, guys come here, what do you think ? She's our guild's cover girl ! Cute, Eh ?

All : Wow

Bob : Oh my, Mirajane, huh ? She sure has grown hasn't she ?

Mirajane : Actually, Something wonderful happened during your absence ! It's quite surprising but Natsu, Gray and Erza have formed a team ! I Believe this might be the most powerful team of Fairy Tail currently. I thought you'd like to know, so i wrote this letter.

Makarov : Wha.. Wha.. WHAT !!!! HOW CAN THEY DO THAT !!!

Bob : Oh my …

GoldMine : It would seem that the Council's concerns could prove to be justified.

Just before the Magic circle close off to stop the recording.

Mirajane : Oh there is also Marco who accompagn them to keep them in check so you Don't need to worry too much.

Makarov : CAN'T YOU SAY THAT SOONER I NEARLY DIED IN A HEART ATTACK.

Sitting on the table Makarov signed.

Makarov : I'm too old for these things.

Bob : Hmm Marco ? You never introduce him to us who is he ?

Makarov : He is a good boy, Young and Strong. And i think he is the best candidate to suceed me to the seat of Guild Master.

Gasped could be heard everywhere.

??? 1 : No way someone who can suceed as the next guild Master ?!

??? 2 : He need to be very strong to be acknowledge as the Guild Master, and isn't he just a new recruit too ?

GoldMine : Oy Oy, Makarov you know that the seat of Guild Master isn't an insignifiant matter, you can't make a youngster take the position like that.

Makarov : I know that why i will give him the position in the next year and let him take the time to grow and mature a little i will teach him also some trick for when he will deal with the Magic Council with these problem children he will need it AHAHAHA.

All : AHAHAHAHA.

Meanwhile at Kunugi Station

Erza : Shit they have taken the train, it's speed is fast and we will not be able to catch them so easily. But we know where they are headed let's go we need to catch up to them.

Marco : Erza let me ride you need to conserve your magic don't worry for me i have plenty of reserve just concentrate for the battle.

Erza : Ok Fine.

Then the Car ride at full speed toward the next station.

Gray : Oy Oy you ride too quickly the Reserve are going to explode and you need to conserve your magic for the fight.

Marco : Don't worry for me it's fine it take me little of my reserve so it is not that important.

Gray : Heuu Ok then.

Happy : I think i had something really imporant to tell you, Lucy. But i don't remember what.

Marco : Hey Happy I wanted to ask ? But why did you have a Celestial Key on you ?

Happy : HAH " Struck by lightning " That's right. Virgo wanted to tell you that since her master was arrested, she broke her contract with him and she wanted you to be her new master.

Lucy : WHAT How did you have that Happy you're the best cat ever.

Happy : HAY !!

Lucy : Give me the key quickly !!

Happy : Wait a little, Ah! Here AHHHH !!!

Then you could see Lucy stealing the key out of the hand of Happy it was so quick that you couldn't see her hand and just an after-image. For the eyes, it was just if the key disappeared in thin air.

Happy : So quick …

Lucy : Wow it is the key of Virgo I'm so happy right now. Let's go make the contract.

Erza : We Don't have the time we are arriving at Oshibana Stati… What is that.

In front of Oshibana Station there were a crowd of people with agent are blocking the way inside the Station. One of the Agent is trying to speak up to the crowd.

Agent : A train has derailed, you can't enter the station !!

Stranger 1 : A derailment ? Really ?

Stranger 2 : I heard that dangerous people seized the station

Agent : Stand back please.

A hand hit him in the shoulder.

Erza : YOU, What's the situation inside ?

Agent : Who are you ? ARGH

Then Erza hit her hard with her head knocking him off, she then started her killing spre.. Hem her interrogation to the other Agent knocking them off one by one.

Lucy : So people who doesn't repond quickly are useless to her, huh ?

Gray: You're beginning to understand who Erza is.

Marco : AHAHAHAHA I found that so funny.

They both sweatdropped seeing my always calm demeanor.

Erza : Eisenwald is inside ! Let's go !

All : Yeah.

Inside the Station

Erza : It seems a militay platoon entered, but apparently they are not back yet.

They are most likely fighting Eisenwald.

Marco : Or are all already dead.

Lucy : HIIIIII.

Marco: After all there are a little stupid throwing a normal human against a mage is the most stupid thing you can do. Look.

Then we see in the stair all the guard unconscious and lying in the ground.

Lucy : They are all wiped out !!

Marco : What did i say to you, even an entire platoon will be Nothing against mage.

??? : Hehehehehe, I knew you'd come, flies of Fairy Tail.

In front of us stood a hundred of people easily all smiling and grinning toward us. Lucy was greatly scared while Erza, Gray, Natsu wore an expression of indifference and our MC was yawning. Then they all glared at him.

Marco : What ?! i did not slept well this night so I am a little tired.

Erza : Whatever...

She scan the crowd and her gaze fall on someone sitting near the window.

Erza : You ! You are Erigor !!

Kageyama : Small flies because of you, Erigor need to change his plan.

Erza : What's your objective ? What do you intend to do with Lullaby.

Erigor : You don't get it ? What is there inside a station.

Then he flew in the air and landed on a loud speaker.

Erza : You intend to broadcast Lullaby !

Erigor : Thousands of people are gathered around this station. And if we increase the volume it wil resonate throughout the entire city. The melody of death.

Erza : You are planning to play Lullaby's melody to innocent people ?

Erigor : This is purification.

Marco : Ok i have hear too much bullshit since i am here Erigor did you really think i will believe your words full of lies. There is one town after this station and it was your destination isn't it ?

Erigor got pale when he heard my word.

Erigor : HO.. HOW DID YOU KNOW OUR PLAN !!! THIS IS NOT WHAT WE HAVE PLANNED !!! GUYS ELIMINATE THEM QUICKLY I WILL LEAVE TO THE MEETING !!!

Then he flew out and disappeared out of view.

Erza : Marco what are you talking about. WHAT IS THEIR PLAN ?

Marco : No time to explain i need to follow Erigor. Keep the mage here and arrest them i will come soon. Also make sure Natsu don't destroy anything.

Then i also disappeared leaving all the people in the hall stunned.

Dark Mage : Guys why did i feel that the brat who disappeared is quite strong.

Kageyama : Imbecile we don't have the time to think about that just focus on beating them. Let's go guys show them that dark guild are better than legal guild.

All Dark Mage : Yeahhh

Then the temperature of the hall diminished greatly, all people turned their face and showed fear when they see a red haired woman who was standing there fuming in rage. Her eyes became red like a demon and her hair started floating. They all started to shiver when they saw this pair of crimson eyes that seems to pierce in their soul.

Erza : H.O.W. D.A.R.E. H.E. D.U.M.P. M.E L.I.K.E. T.H.A.T. HE WILL SUFFER.

They all screamed seeing that she will vented her anger on them.

Meanwhile in the Clover Canyon

We can see two figure standing face to face in the air.

Marco : Tch you are quite quick to flee with your wind.... but i will beat you right now like that you will never be able to use Lullaby.

Erigor : You are the one who ruined my perfect plan but now that you are separated from your comrade i will be able to kill you easily.

Marco : Mmmph big words for a small fries like you, i don't even need to use 20 % of my strengh to beat the crap of you.

Erigor : You will regret disrespecting me. STORM BRINGER

Marco : I can also form tornado too. Wind element : WIND TORNADO

Then two tornado come out to life and clashed against each other. The impact was so powerful that rock where shredded everywhere. The tornado where of the same power and they extinguished at the same time.

Erigor : WHAT ?? HOW CAN YOU BE SO GOOD IN WIND MAGIC ?!!!

Marco : Oh Oh Oh that was just a little display of mine Don't worry too much. But you still aren't serious at all. After all i would be pretty disappointed if it was all your strengh.

Erigor : Don't be too cocky I'm not even serious you are just Lucky.

Marco : Against absolute strengh Erigor you can't do anything. Wind Element : WIND SLASH.

A huge slash of Wind appeared and headed straight towards Erigor whose instinct screamed hard that if he were to be touched by this blade he will be shredded in thousand piece. Using the Wind he quickly flew out of the trajectory of the spell with cold sweat all over his body.

Erigor "Thinking" ( He is strong i need to be serious, i underestimated him too much. I will teach him not to mess with Eisen Wald ).

Erigor : You should be proud that i get serious over a simple flies like you. I will show you what true Wind magic is STORM SHRED.

Marco : Petty trick. Wind Element: WIND SHIELD

Multiple slashing Wind were shot toward Marco who only raised his hand and create a squared shaped Wind shield completely protecting him from the attack of Erigor.

Erigor : I need to used this then. STORM MAIL.

Wind then started to appeared around Erigor completely protecting him and coating him making like a knight of wind. He bend his arms and pointing his hands towards the sky, with their index and middle fingers stretched. He subsequently places his two index and middle fingers in a "X" shape in front of him.

Erigor : I will show you now my one of my strongest spell. EMERA BARAM.

A halo of light was generated around his hands, from which a large, concentrated blast of wind blades is fired towards Marco.

Marco : Not bad not bad at all. BUT NOT ENOUGH. Wind Element : DOMAIN.

Then suddendly, a sort of dome was release from Marco. The dome was around 10 feet radius and inside it you could not even see the air moving around, like it was stopped in time. And when the spell came in contact with the dome it suddendly vanished, all the part entering the dome vanished without leaving a single trace. But for the most observant you can see that the spell didn't vanish, it was just dispelled. Marco just grinned seeing this scene, it was an extremely complicated spell where you needed to completely control the elemental particle around you to create a domain in your complete control. In there you can do whatever you want with the ethernano even completely cut the movement of the particle. That why the spell "vanished". By stopping moving the elemental particle. The energy of the spell stopped moving returning in the air and cancelled the spell.

Erigor : HOW, HOW IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO STOPPED MY EMERA BARAM WHAT DID YOU DO HOW CAN IT SIMPLY VANISH LIKE THAT.

Marco : Nothing impossible, I'm just better than you. Wind Element : Thousand Blades.

Thousand of Wind blades appeared around Erigor cutting him all around his body and completely passing throught his prized Storm Mail.

Erigor : AAARGHHHH.

Losing his concentration he started falling and crashed down on the rail with a loud BOOOM and when the dust scattered we can see him uncounscious with cut everywhere and blood flowing zll over his body.

Marco : Maybe i exegarated a little. Whatever i just wanted to test my power on someone strong but I'm still disappointed with this measky strengh no Wonder he couldn't even contain Natsu Flame. My last two spell consumed too much magic. I need to train their efficiency and find a method to diminish their consumption. The domain spell is good but i can control only one element each time and if the element is scarce it is even more difficult. Thousand blades just need control after all controlling thousand Wind blade isn't an easy task now I'm just at the beginning stage where i can just throw them at the same time. Next i need to control them individually. The consumption will also be astronomic. I need to study more about it.

I started to bandage him, tied him and remake the spell on Lullaby, don't want the spell to run out of mana when i give it to the Guild Master. I waited a little and quickly heard the sound of a car approaching. The person inside where obviously Natsu, Lucy, Gray, Happy and Erza who drives.

Seeing her the dark circle below her eyes, i frowned.

All : Marco !! Are you alright.

Marco : Yeah I'm fine don't worry about me. Just my reserve are a little depleted.

Lucy : Pfiouuu and i though you wouldn't be able to handle it.

Marco : Arghh, I'm hurt, you don't even trust your friend. "shed false tears"

Lucy : No, No that not what i mean. "panicking"

Marco : Just kidding i know that you all trust me or else Natsu would have come with Happy at full speed.

Lucy : Ahhh you tricked me. "pout"

Marco : AHAHAHA too fun.

Erza : Be serious please. Marco where is Lullaby.

Marco : Here. "handling the flute to Erza"

Erza : Thanks, you have made a good job. " turning around " BUT don't ever think that i will forget that you have abandonned us at the train station.

She say that with a scary and authoritative voice with no room for negotiation.

Marco : HAIE. But i'm also worried about you look those sack under your eyes that is the symptom of over using you magic don't do that next time and let me handle the rest.

Erza : Sigh Fine. Now we will go regroup with the guild Master. They will know what to do with Erigor and the Lullaby. I will keep it safe while Natsu,Gray and you Lucy will keep in check Erigor.

All 3 : HAIE.

Marco : Then i will need to drive.

Erza : Yes, if you have the magic remaining please.

Marco : Don't worry about me you should worry about you first.

Natsu, Gray and Lucy chained Erigor inside the car while Erza and me go take the front.

Marco : Now let's go to Clover.

ALL : YEAHHH
