The Elemental Dragonslayer

Chapter 41: Sting and Rogue vs. Alec

Normal POV

The city was colored blood red at this point as the sky grew crimson every second.

Erza's scarlet hair flew into the wind and she cursed. "This is not normal weather. No, this isn't just the weather. Someone's here." She said to herself as she couldn't shake the feeling of a very powerful enemy in the area.

As she stood watch over the entrance of the arena she saw two figures sprinting at her, she requipped into her Heaven's Wheel armor and readied a sword.

"Wait Erza! It's us!" One of the figures said and when they were in clear view, Erza sighed in relief as she saw Juvia and Gray.

"Where's Natsu?" She asked as Gray stood straight. "That's not important right now." He stated and looked at the sky.

"This isn't just some weather miscalculation. We're under attack. Sting and Rogue are fighting one of them right now. Lucy said she was sure there might be more of them so she and Natsu left to find some more." He explained and Erza clenched her sword.

"So we should assemble an attack group of mages?" Erza suggested. Gray shook his head. "That would be great but as Juvia and I were hopping around buildings we noticed something is spreading. There was this dark fog coming out from every corner and it's heading towards here, the stadium. Juvia and I tried to stop it but nothing's working."

"Juvia also thinks that the lightning strikes were moving in a certain pattern and after Juvia and Gray-sama watched it for a while we concluded that it was subtly traveling to here as well. Juvia also checked and their were 4 tornadoes in total. From the north, south, east, and west of Crocus, heading to here." Juvia added. All of them looked at each other gravely.

"What is going on?" Erza furrowed her eyebrows as she couldn't help but feel something, a presence, and it seemed strangely familiar.

Sting's POV

"Rogue!" I yelled as he was thrown back and into a building. This guy is seriously getting on my nerves.

I looked back to him and saw that he was struggling to get up and I could see that ice had latched his hand to the ground.

"White Dragon Slayer's Roar!" It hit the spot where Alec was but he jumped out of the way and I cursed. For a psycho he's pretty nimble. "Let me show you one of the catastrophe's I experienced when I was the kid. The sound of that bomb exploding never did get out of my head." He smirked at me, outstretched his hands and made a loud clap.

All of a sudden a sound wave so strong had struck my ears and I was crouching in pain! "That hurts you bastard! Agghhhhhh!" The force also threw me back and I curled up in more pain. My ears were still ringing and I couldn't hear a thing, but when I saw him approach me I jumped out of the way and forced myself to attack.

"Wing Slash of The White Dragon!" A white light appeared. I tried to strike him but he kept dodging and dodging, for a split second he slipped on the ice and I took this as my chance to attack again and focused white energy onto my fist, with that I socked him in the jaw but he was able to bend his body, duck, bring his foot up, and kick me in the back, sending me face first into the ground.

Dammnit. I was about to attack again when a new sound came into my head.

"Hello! Sting Eucliffe can you copy?" Woah, what the hell. I immediately backed away from Alec, looking around frantically. 

"Who is this?!" I shouted as I turned around every second. I wondered if it was just an after effect of that sound wave but realized it was telepathy. I think.
