Y/n's POV

I heard Gray, papa, and big sis arguing ahead of us while Wendy and I raced after them. "Y/n slow down. I can't keep up with you." Wendy complained. I slowed to a jog, which she could keep up with. I eventually heard big sis demand papa to stop moving his feet before watching him fly over the edge of a cliff. Big sis, Gray, Leon, and Sherry stopped at the edge of the cliff that papa fell off. Mama was just slightly ahead of us and complaining about how ladies should be first. The trimen caught up to her, and each offered to protect her, which I found personally creepy. "Something on your mind?" Wendy asked.

"I'm not sure, just the trimen are a little creepy to me." I said. 

"Glad I'm not the only one thinking that." Wendy said, smiling at me. I smiled back before realizing how protective I was before. "Also, I'm sorry about being protective earlier." I apologized. 

"It's okay, honestly I think it was nice knowing you were protecting me." Wendy said. As we caught up to everyone, our group started making its way into the forest below. We started running through the forest, but something about it just smelled and felt off. "Do you feel that?" Wendy asked.

"Yeah, something isn't right here. I can't figure out what, though." I answered. Our group eventually caught up to papa as we exited part of the forest. Something flew over us and I looked up, seeing that clearly was from Blue Pegasus. Papa and Gray started fighting because papa stopped suddenly and Gray ran into him. Big sis separated them, telling them to focus. "That's the magic bomber, Christina." Big sis explained. Everyone just stared up at it, admiring it. "Horses can fly too?" Happy asked.

"Please refrain from opening your mouth anymore." Carla asked.

"Alright, let's split up and start looking for their temporary base." Big sis ordered.

"I'm flying the bomber thing." Papa said.

"Not happening." Gray said. As Christina was flying over the forest, some explosions went off on the side of it before a few more followed, making it fall from the sky. Once Christina hit the ground, it blew up, leaving everyone stunned. "What's going on?" I asked. As we stared at the flames coming from the Magic Bomber Christina, unfamiliar scents filled the air. "Everyone stay frosty!" Gray shouted. Everyone put their guard up as Wendy rushed behind me and hid some. "I can't do this." Wendy said, peeking out from behind me.

"Don't hide behind Y/n just because she's here. You should try your best here." Carla said. Some people came walking out of the smoke. "It's them. The Oracion Seis." Mama said.

"Lowly maggots swarming together." The one in the middle said.

"I'm afraid short stuff isn't going to make it to the party." The woman next to the man said. I looked at the two little blue guys floating next to her before recognizing the scent. "Celetial spirit?" I asked, quietly. 

"Neither is that big bald wizard saint. We took them down." The spirit said.

"They're defated?" Leon asked.

"Not possible." Hibiki said.

"There's terror in their voices. I can hear it." The guy with the snake said.

"The quicker we wrap this up the better. I'll run you over so fast it'll make your head spin." The guy with a mohawk said.

"Money determines strength in this world. Oh eyah. If you save but a penny today it'll become a vast fortune in the future. Furthermore..." The missionary looking guy started. Two of his teammates told him to shut up and stop preaching. The last guy was fast asleep on a flying carpet. Gray and papa rushed in ready to start the fight with them. As we watched them get sent flying back by the guy with the mohawk I smelled two scents of mama which confused me before I looked over at her and saw that there was two of her. Leon and Sherry rushed in towards the missionary guy getting taken out by losing their footing. The trimen got taken out by the guy with a mohawk. Big sis used her requip magic to put on her Heaven's Wheel armor, but the guy with the snake managed to avoid all her swords which was shocking. "Shouldn't you get in on the fight?" Wendy asked.

"The best thing to do is to see what your opponents can do in a fight. Besides someone should protect our support." I said. Wendy smiled as I stayed on guard watching everything that the member's of Oracion Seis could do. Big sis was taking on two of them, but still losing to them. Papa tried using his magic on the sleeping guy, but the magic just seemed to avoid him. After that papa was taken out by the mohawk guy. Sherry and Leon were taken out by the missionary guy while big sis continued her attacks against the guy with the snake. The snake guy seemed to flinch at something about big sis before the missionary guy and mohawk guy took big sis into the air and the snake bit down on big sis' arm. She landed on the ground and the guy mentioned something about the poison from his snake. "How pathetic. Prepare for oblivion's embrace." The man in the middle said. He pointed his staff towards the others as a magic spell formed in front of his staff. A green light came from the ground surrounding the others as I considered using Water Dragon's Shield. As I was contemplating whether I should use the spell or not I noticed the guy's gaze look towards me and Wendy. "Dark Rondo." The guy said. Before he could finish casting the spell he stopped and stared at us. "What's the matter, Brain?" The mohawk guy asked.

"Are you going to cast the spell or not?" Snake guy asked. Brain seemed stunned by something as he continued to stare in our direction. "Wendy." Brain said.

"Uh... Yeah?" Wendy asked. I growled at Brain as he stared at Wendy. "You better not touch her." I said.
