A Railgun in Fairy Tail Book 3: Bridge Between Worlds

Diablo Etwatia

Near the outskirts of Crocus, during the first events of the games....

"So......I take it you are Jellal....." said Diablo. "A puny speck of a wizard saint.......How amusing....."

Accelerator gritted his teeth. "Hey Jellal, you sure this is the guy we need to get info out of? He looks like he eats demons for lunch........"

Jellal walked forward, removing the mask and hat that concealed his features as Mystogan. "Diablo Etwatia.....I thought if we wandered around long enough talking about you, you would eventually show up.....looks like I was right."

Diablo's blood red eyes glowed a little brighter with interest. "Never has any dared to utter my name so casually........none except Zeref......and even he has feared me to an extent."

"We have some questions to ask you...." said Jellal.

"If you wish to know anything from me......" said Diablo. "You must first survive me.........."

Diablo suddenly raised his spiked fist and let a bullet-like punch at Jellal. Accelerator turned on his choker and stepped in front of Jellal. The fist stopped inches from Accelerator's face as the vector deflection kicked in. Immediately Diablo was blasted back by the vector deflection, his feet trailing gouges in the cobble stone road.

"Not bad......" said Diablo. "But espers are nothing but cheap imitations of the kind of power mages can bring to the table."

"Bla bla bla..." spat Accelerator. "All I've heard enough talk like that from other magicians....funnily enough, they all end up dead in the end...."

"True enough..." said Diablo. "I am dead...."

"Stand back!" said Jellal. "This guy wasn't fighting for real.....not yet at least. That punch just now was to test how our reflexes react in battle."

"So what do we do then?" spat Accelerator. "Wait for this guy to become serious?"

"Quite the opposite." said Jellal. "We take him down before he get's serious."

Jellal widened his leg stance and bowed down, pointing two fingers downwards, he then began to slowly moving his other hand like a clock as the clouds in the sky twisted and turned until a giant glowing sphere was seen coming out and slowly growing bigger.

"True Heavenly Body Magic.......Sema."

The massive sphere of golden light fell down from the heavens. The magic meteor aimed straight towards Diablo.

"Heh.." said Diablo. "Pathetic..."

Diablo held out a hand to the air. Immediately the meteor crashed into Diablo's outstretched hand. However, while the earth ruptured around his feet in a massive crater, Diablo did not waver, his hand holding the massive meteor at bay with extreme ease.

"WHAT!!?" said Jellal his eyes widening. "HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE!! I put all my energy into that attack!!!"

"Hmph...." said Diablo. "So this is the power of a former Wizard Saint.........I can see why the word 'former' is included in the title now..."

Diablo closed his fist on the rocky surface of the massive meteor and there was explosion of such blinding light, that had it not been for Accelerator's vector deflection, it would probably have been a sure thing that both he and Jellal would have been wiped out right then and there.

Accelerator looked up the moment the light and smoke cleared. Diablo still had his fist raised over his head. His hand enclosed over a few sprinkles of magic star dust.....all that remained of one of Jellal's strongest moves.
