The Iron Mage (Book 1)

Happy Ending

Back with Arteus and Dr. Doom, a galaxy was being dropped on Dr. Doom, who broke through. Dr Doom was in front and proceeded to give a roundhouse kick.

Arteus caught it and threw him onto the ground before charging forward. Dr. Doom saw Arteus charging and quickly backflipped.

The two had scratches and injuries all over their bodies. It seemed they had been fighting for quite a while. The dimension was filled with broken cracks everywhere.

Outside, Edolas was shaking violently. It wasn't just Edolas; it was the universe.

Ethan dropped to the ground from the planet shaking. It was bad, really bad. He heard volcanoes exploding and yelled,

"MYSTOGAN, WHAT'S HAPPENING?" Ethan yelled at the confused Mystogan.

"I don't know," Mystogan yelled back, "I feel like the planet is about to explode!"

"It's so sudden," Jeanne said, "I'm pretty sure our battle didn't cause this much chaos."

With Natsu and the others, even they were shocked at the sudden violent earthquake.

"Woah," Maki stumbled and said, "Did the planet eat some spice?"

"This earthquake isn't normal!" Wendy yelled.

Megumi grunted in pain and thought, "This planet is shaking."

"What the hell is happening?" Gajeel yelled.

"Gojo?" Natsu asked.

"The planet is about to explode," Gojo revealed.

"HUH?!" Natsu yelled, "Can't we do anything about it?"

Gojo shook his head, "You can't even use 1% of my power, and you're badly injured. We have to leave this to your little Iron Mage."

"Ethan?" Natsu thought.

Back with the others, the Fairy Tail members were panicking. They heard Mystogan and were scared.

"Why's this planet suddenly exploding?" Edolas Lucy yelled, "I'M SURE THAT BASTARD TENMA IS AT FAULT!!!"

"Calm down," Earthland Lucy held her, "We'll find a way."

Knightwalker had a look of absolute terror, "This... what the hell is this?"

"How did it come to this?" Erza said, fearing the worst.

Back in the dimension, Arteus yelled at Dr. Doom, "WHAT DID YOU DO?!"

"A parting gift to Ethan Hawks," Dr. Doom said as a portal enveloped him, "I wish I could get rid of you, but I don't have the time."

"YOU BASTARD!" By the time Arteus yelled, Dr. Doom was already gone.

Back in the real world, Ethan had a groan on his face. They had just won the battle, and everything was getting messed up. He had to save this world, but he didn't know how.

"Ethan, can't you do anything?" Jeanne asked.

"I really don't wanna commit suicide with everyone after such an amazing victory," Dazai's voice interrupted. He was panting and holding his stomach in pain. "If you have some secretly amazing ability you're hiding, now's the time to use it."

He saw Jealter grabbing the area where her unborn baby was, and he heard her saying, "Don't worry, Mommy won't let you go, even if it means I have to sacrifice myself."

"I can't just fail and let everyone die—" Mid-sentence, Ethan stopped. He suddenly remembered a useful piece of information. There was a way, a solution to save everyone. He looked at Ace and sighed.
