Chapter 9 saving Natsu

Chapter 9: Saving Natsu

Makarov entered Porlyusica's house to check on the young dragon slayer.

"Makarov?"

"How is he doing?"

"Not good, I estimate he has a couple of days left tops."

"Don't worry fairy tail wizards won't fail one of their own. As we speak six brave mages are venturing into the depths of Vernador to retrieve the emporium flames."

"You have some very loyal and honourable brats Makarov."

Makarov simply nodded.

"Is it true that it was an ice dragon slayer who Natsu fought?"

"Yes judging by the power of magic it's unmistakable. It takes more than ordinary ice to freeze this ones flames."

Elfman, Erza, gray, Lisanna, levy and Mirajane, had walked all day and were now in the city of Cascada on the outskirts of the city of dangers Vernador. 

The fairy tail wizards decided to stay at a hotel and leave for Vernador in the morning.

"Good evening. Welcome to Cascada Towers how can I help you?" Greeted the kind hotel receptionist.

"Good evening. We would like a room for six please." Requested Erza.

"Certainly right this way" replied the Bellman.

The six mages had been escorted to the castle suite. 2 king size beds and a built in bathroom.

"Here we are the castle suite. We charge 100,000 jewels a night. With all the facilities you shall need. Also a spa and pool downstairs. Just ring if you need anything." With that, the bellboy left.

Gray ran towards the king size bed and grabbed a pillow.

"What's staying in a hotel without a pillow brawl!" Gray threw straight towards Erza. Catching the pillow with ease. Sending it right back.

"Pillow wars are for men!" Elfman joined in sending a pillow towards gray. Now being pelted by two pillows at once he dodged it hitting a lamp.

Which would have fallen if levy didn't catch it.

Mirajane saw everyone now taking part in the pillow fight and as always they were taking it too far.

Well all expect one, she couldn't see her little sister. She then noticed that Lisanna was out on the balcony obviously thinking about Natsu.

Mirajane proceeded to go comfort her. 

Lisanna was looking up at the moon with a tear drifting beneath her eye. Mirajane placed a hand on Lisanna's shoulder.

"We'll save him Lisanna count on it!"

"I can't imagine my life without him! I love him. I won't let him die!"

Lisanna rushed into Mirajane and burst into tears.

"You've got to be strong Lisanna for Natsu."

"She's right Lisanna. Natsu is a tough, stubborn, incredible man. He won't let ice kill him." Erza exclaimed.

"Thank you guys I'll do my best!" Lisanna smiled. She thought to herself Natsu I will save you.

When the sun shone over the horizon, the fairy tail wizards paid the hotel and headed out towards Vernador.

"Okay we just have to head through the forest and we will be outside Vernador. But be on guard there are said to be Gorians in this forest."

Sure enough after a few minutes venturing deeper and deeper into the woods, 30 Gorians appeared.

"Okay spread out! We shall all take out five each. Believe in yourself you are a wizard of fairy tail!" Erza sprung into action requipping into her heavens wheel armour.

"Dance my swords!" With that 20 swords materialised around Erza.

"CIRCLE SWORD!" Four swords launched at each Gorian. Successfully taking out two Gorians whilst the other two dodged the onslaught of swords.

Erza grinned at the effort of the last two. A luminous light shone around Erza's whole body as she requipped again. This time changing into her flight armour. As fast as a speeding bullet, Erza flew at the first Gorians striking them both down with ease. The speed catching them off guard.

Elfman quickly disposed of the Gorian with his beast arm knocking them all flying.

"I'm a real man!"

The Gorians charged at levy only to be stopped in their tracks falling into bottomless pits.

"Solid script hole!" Mirajane became surrounded by an amethyst glow all around her body. When she re-emerged, her appearance had changed dramatically. Her hair that normally lay down was now spiked up. Her hands now claws and a scar down the side of her face.

"Take over Satan soul!" Mirajane transformed into Satan soul living up to her name as an S class mage.

"Soul extinction!" A purple light illuminated over the entire area.

"Sorry but I'm in a hurry" Mira smiled as she walked on wards.

"Out of my way! Ice make floor!" Hundreds of spikes materialised through the floor taking care of all the Gorian that stood before him. Which left 5 for Lisanna.

Lisanna didn't hesitate she had to hurry. "Take over penguin soul!" Lisanna transformed into a giant penguin crushing the Gorian with her feet now being considerably bigger than them all.

"Great work everybody! Let's move out" Erza commanded as they reached the end of the forest. The adventurers came across a huge tablet written in ancient language.

"Levy do your thing." Mira said whilst smiling.

Levy quickly got to work using her wind glasses to read from an ancient book in her bag. 

"Okay I've translated it. It reads... What lies ahead is the labyrinth of nightmares so don't afford to get lost. In these passages lie your greatest fear so don't enter at all costs.

"Since when do Fairy Tail wizards obey rules?" gray said whilst laughing.

"Agreed we'll split into two's Gray come with me. Levy you go with Mirajane and Elfman you go with Lisanna. Erza ordered. Then group by group the pairs ventured into the darkness.
