The sun began to rise on another day in Southern Japan. On the first day of the invasion some cities, villages and districts where all targeted. Some had been taken over without a fight while others took some time. As the sun rose in the horizon you can see smoke coming from different cities across the island. You can hear clash of weapons, explosions and even some yelling. The battle for freedom has begun. Zeref's army has already engaged the resistance. The guilds spread across the island, the factions, Natsu's clan. They are all fighting to keep the invaders out. One warrior has already defeated one of the twelve generals. Her name is Valkyrie Yuna. The first night of the invasion she encountered none other then the blood valkyrie herself Shalltear Bloodfallen. There battle was full of powerful attacks and gorgeous swordsmanship between the two. But in the end Valkyrie won. Defeated, Shalltear kept her end of the deal and told Valkyrie everything about the Spriggan 12. She thanked Shalltear and allowed her to go free. She saw that Shalltear was dragged into this by a lunatic, and blood driven overlord. With the last message to Valkyrie being "beat the hell out of Zeref." A message entended for Natsu.
As Valkyrie headed towards Kyoto to regroup with Yasaka. She took with her the young mother and her two children. Making it to the palace just past 8 in the morning, she barely got there in one piece. Valkyrie was tired, and had wounds from her battle against Shalltear. She was low on ethernanon or magic power and had to replace some body part due to there extent damage. Being that she's on earth and not on Eden's Zero there's no way she can can medical help without the help of Sister or Witch. When they arrived Valkyrie was taken to medical treatment immediately by the youkai warriors. They took the young mother and her children to a shelter within the palace. Once Valkyrie got treatment and was able to recover some of her power she asked to speak to Yasaka. She was taken to a command center near the entrance of the palace where Yasaka was monitoring everything from a big wide screen.

Yasaka: Valkyrie San, why are you up? You should be recovering.

Valkyrie: I'm doing fine.

Yasaka: Fine? You look beat up.

Valkyrie: Yeah well without Witch or sister there's no amount of medical help I can get.

She says nervously chuckling. She then looks towards the screen and can see an entire map of the Southern Island. On the screen there can be seen small battles marked by multiple red dots.

Valkyrie: Is that what's going on across the island?

Yasaka: Yeah. Satellite image is showing us live video from the battles going on across the island. The red dots are us, the dark blue one are the enemy. These green ones is our group.

She points to them as Valkyrie can sorta make out who the green dots are. She recognizes one as the green dot is still near the bridge that connects the northern Island with the southern one.

Valkyrie: that reminds me, is there anyway you can connect me to the rest of our group?

Yasaka: You mean by telepathy?

Valkyrie: Yeah..

Yasaka: my telepathy doesn't have a huge range. I can probably reach Tokyo at most.

Valkyrie: Can you contact Mavis? Maybe she can reach farther.

Yasaka: Sure let me try to contact her.

She closes her eyes nearing two fingers near her face. A few seconds later she opens her eyes.

Yasaka: I have her on the line. Mavis San can you hear me?

Valkyrie places her hand on Yasaka's shoulder. That's when she hears her.

Mavis: Yes I can hear you. What's going on? Is everything okay?
