As Sting and the others finished updating Natsu on what's been going on from there side, the war still rages on across the entire Southern Island. What started off good as Valkyrie took down Shalltear has been nothing but total anarchy. Small villages ended up getting caught in the battles, cities destroyed, and bodies of the dead laying everywhere. The sheer numbers of Zeref's army began to overwhelm the ones who where fighting against the invasion. The bigger powers, The Factions, only sent about 15-20% of there military strength. Even though the three great factions weren't at battle with one another, paranoia filled the minds of the Faction leaders as they though if they were to send more of there armies one or the other would take this moment and invade the others domain. Which lead to some of the cities across the island to be completely overtaken by Zeref's army and his generals. The major guilds and smaller ones across the island began to doubt and second guess why where they fighting a war that has nothing to do with them. Some didn't even know why they are fighting and doubted, and fear filled there hearts. Moral is low, food, and water is becoming hard to find because Zeref's army who had taken over some of the cities began to cut any sort of route for essentials to be sent. While the Southern tip of the island was guarded by Venelana and Grayfia along with the other half of the clan, other parts of the island didn't have the fire power or man power to fight back. The Etherious demons were doing there best to ambush Zeref's army but the sheer numbers is beginning to take a toll on them. Not to mention since Valkyrie defeated Shalltear the other members of the Spriggan 12 have went into hiding. Shalltear's defeat was sensed by all members of the Spriggan 12 including Zeref. With Natsu unable to get into the island because of the barrier placed around the island things began to look bad for him and his friends. That was until Sabertooth appeared.
Sting: So that's the story.
Rogue: We weren't effected because Lady Minerva felt something was off.
Yukino: She saved us all, and kept our memories intact.
Minerva looks away embarrassed by her guild mates acknowledgment of her.
Anna: That's quite impressive you were able to sense something like that.
Minerva: Honestly I was surprised myself. I didn't mention it to you or never said anything to you Natsu, but something similar to this actually happened recently.
Natsu: What do you mean?
Minerva: Before your battle against Tsukuyomi. I..I had a revelation about that fight.
Natsu and Anna are surprised to hear this.
Minerva: I thought it was a bad dream or something, but it kept on occurring over and over again. The same thing, you, Irene, Ultear and myself fighting Tsukuyomi and her children. I just never said anything because I wasn't sure if this was a dream or not. I'm sorry I kept this from you.
Natsu walks up to her and leans his head onto Minerva's. She surprised by his gesture.
Natsu: That's in the past, don't stress yourself over it. I'm sure you didn't say anything because you weren't sure of it. But you didn't let that affect you. You pushed on and helped me defeat Tsukuyomi.
Minerva: Yeah...You're right.
Suddenly Sting is contacted through telepathy. His entire demeanor changed rapidly.
Rogue: Sting? What's wrong?
Sting: Shit...everyone is being pushed back. The factions aren't sending anymore soldiers, and guilds across the island are being wiped out.
Everyone is shocked to hear the news.
Anna: I couldn't sense anything..
Minerva: Neither can I. It seems the barrier is also made for us not to sense anything from the battle.
