Seven years have passed since the attack on Tenrou Island. From the attack, only Oswald was found as the sole survivor and has been in a coma since then.
Fairy Tail's really suffered with the disappearance of the guild master, S-Class wizards, and...
The scene begins with Oswald, Natsu, Wendy, and the Exceed Squad out while looking for Lucy and Michelle. The sun had just set and the group decided to split up to find them.
Oswald's Thoughts: Where is she? It's normally easy to find her since she screams a lot of the time. (Sniffs around) Huh? What's that weird smell? It's coming from that artifact Lucy's carrying.
Before he could think about that, something goes zooming and he sees what looks to be a giant octopus jumping right towards him.
Oswald: What the fu—
He dodges as the creature lands down. Standing on top of it was a tall man who looked like Byro, only stronger than him.

Byro: I see, you're the one I was sensing. You possess an immense amount of magic power, don't you?
Oswald: So says you and everyone else I've met.
Footsteps were heard and Oswald looks to see Gildarts approaching.
Gildarts: Hey, Os, mind telling me what's going on?
Oswald: Some people are after Lucy for some reason.
Byro: I know of the two of you, your reputations precede you. The most powerful wizard of the Fairy Tail guild's elite S-Class, Gildarts Clive. And the youngest active wizard and so called Monster King, Oswald Ackerman.
Gildarts: Well, I dunno who you are... But you must have a death wish if you're messing with Fairy Tail.
Byro: I don't necessarily have business with your guild.
Oswald: You're after one of our members. You mess with one of us, you get all of us.
All of the sudden, Jason from Sorcerer Weekly pops up out of nowhere.
Jason: (excited) Cool!
Gildarts: (annoyed) I thought I told you to quit following me.
Jason: But this is my big chance, y'know? (Flashes picture with camera) This is the juiciest scoop in the history of Sorcerer Weekly! "Twenty-four Hours with Gildarts. (Pulls up notebook) A journey into Light and Shadows!" I can't believe that I just started writing and now I get to witness one of the coolest face-offs ever! The last showdown was awesome but this one's against a freakin' octopus!
Oswald: Who is this guy again?
Gildarts: One of the annoying vultures from the paparazzi. Honestly, I dunno which one we should take down first. The octopus, or the prick riding it.
Byro: If you both continue to threaten me, I will be forced to eliminate you.
Gildarts then jumps in the air and fires a crash magic spell. However, Byro waves his hand, and the spell was redirected into some trees.
