The Dragon Slayer

The Tower of Heavan

I was walking to the guild hall bulid site. I couldn't believe that Loke just left us. He was always cool and fun. We had spent the other night looking for him but we couldn't find him. It's always hard to lose someone. I turned the last corner and there was Loke talking to everyone. I ran over to him and jumped on his back. He lost his footing and almost fell but recovered. "Hey little dragon." he said. I got off his back and punched him in the arm. "Why would you leave?" I asked. He told us about his past and how he was a celestial spirit. "No wonder your sense was so weird." I said. I nudged him "So do we have to call you Leo now?" I said. Natsu was being an idiot and fantasizing about owning a celestial spirit. "Hey so will you visit often?" "Of course." "Good because I don't want to just get to see you in the mist of battle." "oh I wanted to give you these." Loke gave us tickets to a resort. "Sweet." Erza was already packed and waiting so I ran off to get my stuff.

We had a full day of fun on the beach. It was the most fun I had had in awhile. Having fun with my team was a rush. Once the sun had gone down we went to the casino. I didn't want to play any games or anything so I just went on the roller coaster a million times. I would yell at Natsu or Gray since the roller coaster went by them. But then the lights went out. I ran to go find Lucy knowing Gray and Natsu would be fine. Once I got there 4 people were carrying Erza away. I used my shadow form to get in front of them. The blockhead hit me with some paralyzing bullet or something. Lucy got out of her ropes and ran over to me. "Are you okay?" Lucy said. I couldn't speak. She carried me to the boys and they were fine and Juvia was there. Natsu was complaining about his mouth and ran out of the casino. I knew he had caught the scent because I did too. Gray picked me up and ran after him. I called Galia and she came flying to us.

Once we reached the ocean we flew on Galia. My paralyze had wearied off and I could move again. Natsu was complaining about his motion sickness. But we knew something was wrong when everything started to die. I could feel Galia getting weaker. "Come on you can make it." I was wrong, she fainted and shrank. We all fell and I grabbed Galia. I used my wind magic to float us to shore. Juvia found an underwater passage and we all swam inside the tower. Soon we were spotted and we beat them with ease. A staircase came down. "Oh so they're looking for a fight. Probably a trap." I said as we walked further into the tower. We dried off and more guards came along with Erza. "What are you doing here?" "Looking for you." Lucy said. Erza and Natsu started arguing. Erza kept telling us to leave. "We aren't going anywhere without you." I said. Erza had tears in her eyes, she told us about her past and how the tower came to be. "He wants to awaken Zarif." Erza said. At the mention of Zarif an image of two men came through my mind. One man transformed the other into something that I couldn't make out. I snapped back to reality with a gasp, my head in my hand. "Kk are you okay?" Lucy said. "Yeah I just got a weird vision or something." Everyone looked at me funny. "I don't know it's nothing." I said not worrying about it. Sho came in and started to accuse Erza. Simon appeared to and ended up setting things straight with him. Sho started to cry and I didn't blame him.

We started to run after Natsu. Gray didn't really trust Simon but I trusted them. "Any wizard incapable of surviving our attack wouldn't stand a chance against Jellal. I never doubted that Natsu would handle it, I was confident he would survive. You can't comprehend the full extent of Natsu's abilities. Yours too little dragon slayer. Once you guys awaken the true dragons power within nothing will stand in your way." He was talking to me, but how could I do that.

"Welcome to the tower of heaven. My name is Jellal and I'm the ruler of this tower. I see the players have been arranged. I'm delighted you've come all this way to see me. Shall we play a round of Heaven's game. The rules are quite simple. I wish to use Erza as a sacrifice in my ceremony to resurrect Lord Zarif. If I succeed the gates of heaven will open crowning my victory. However if you can find a way to stop me, you will be the winners of the game. To make things a little more interesting I've enlisted three knights to battle on my behalf. The only way to get to me is to defeat them. A three on eight battle Royale. One more surprise, the magic counsel has the satellite square focused on this tower and they will most likely attack. They are voting on whether to fire an enthrion blast. Is no telling how much time is left should enthrion strike everything will be annihilated. Game over." Sho put Erza in a card. "Now then let the game begin."
