A Railgun in Fairy Tail Book 3: Bridge Between Worlds

Diablo vs Gildarts, Accelerator, Jura, and Jellal

Palace of The King Of Fiore......outdoor courtyard......

Diablo stood on the massive palace courtyard that towered over the rest of Crocus. He looked down at the smoking and screaming city below, absolutely silent.

As still and unmoving as he looked, Diablo was actually doing some intense calcululations within his head, calculating for just the right moment when he would be able to initiate the final phase of the invasion.

"Finally.......after so long..." said Diablo quietly to himself. "This world will belong to the Hydra."

"Is that so? Then I can't very well let that happen can I?"

Diablo turned around and was unsurprised to see Jellal Fernandes standing there. Jellal had changed out of his Mystogan disguise and was now dressed in his usual sleeveless combat clothing.

"Jellal....." Diablo sighed. "Must I spend a few more seconds with a weakling before the world belongs to my master?"

"You're obviously way more powerful then Black Whisper..." said Jellal. "In fact, despite people saying you're only ranked the second most powerful mage in your guild, it's quite obvious you're even more powerful then any of the 10 Wizard Saints.........why not become the leader of Hydra Head yourself?"

"That is the trouble with you human specks..." said Diablo. "You always assume that if one has power....one would desire more. But my people do not think like your kind......eons ago, when the Universe was first created, and my species walked across our ancient world we had a different philosiphy............It was that loyalty to a great ambition was the highest of all honors........and Black Whisper, he has great ambition, therefore I am duty bound to see it through."

"Well I'm duty bound to the entire human race to make sure you don't succeed." said Jellal beginning to glow with massive golden energy. "Even if it causes me my life."

"You couldn't even scratch me with your most powerful move." said Diablo. "What makes you think you can defeat me?"

"Because this time he's not alone!" A black caped figure fell out of the sky and landed with his fist in the ground, creating a crater beneath his feet. Gildarts rose up grinning as his body vibrated with intense power. "I've actually only just recieved Jellal's message......came running to Crocus as fast as I could."

"I hope you don't plan on keeping all the fun for yourself." From the shadows walked out Jura Neekis of Lamia Scale. "Because I can't resist fighting a strong opponent."

"Keh!" Spat Accelerator who had just walked through the large gate leading to the courtyard. "I guess it's just starting to be a real party, at least leave me a little bit of him to demolish!"

Diablo looked at the 4 combatants that now surrounded him, his burning eyes now looking a little more curious then bored. "The strongest mage in Fairy Tail, a Wizard Saint, a former Wizard Saint, and the formerly strongest esper............this fight might actually give me a few scratches."

"Eh?" said Accelerator. "What do you mean 'formerly strongest esper'?"

"Don't you feel it?" said Diablo looking off into the horizon. "Didn't you see that great light just a few moments ago? It has finally happened.........the girl has reached the level of god........the first level 6. Now not even Zeref could hold a candle to her if he wanted.....Only Angels could ever fight at her level now......"

"You sound like the first TV." spat Accelerator. "Now that you've seen the first main show, stay tuned for years of nothing but crap."

"Maybe...." said Diablo. "But once I initiate the final phase......you will be singing a different tune.....once I bring back Dravis from beyond the dimensions....."
