Gohan was flying over a vast body of water to the spot where he felt power levels fluctuate. He saw a huge tower in the horizon and all he could say was "whoa". He suddenly stopped about 400 meters away and felt a weak power level expand at an alarming rate, still no where close to which he would consider a threat however.

Earlier that day...

"Who was the mastermind behind the escape plan? We will only apprehend that person. Aren't we kind?"

"Spit it out!" said the other man in a mask

She looked at her crying friend and was about tell them it was her. She opened her mouth to admit it was her, but before she could finish, Jellal interrupted her taking the blame but it was all for naught. One of the minions carried Erza to the torture chamber, as Jellal and one of her friends started to talk back. The evil mage looked at them and electrocuted them through magic. Jellal decided to go and save Erza, but when he arrived, he saw Erza had lost an eye. He was on the verge of crying, and on his way back as he carried Erza, telling her the only thing left to do, was fight.

On the way back, 4 magical troops appeared and Erza was sent back to her Cell, but they took Jellal to punish him for his disobedience. Some of the minions started psychologically torturing Sho, her friend, and she remembered what Jellal had said. "We have to fight."

She took the minions out and decided to lead the rebellion, saying "Even if we obey them, or run away from them, we will never be free! We have no choice but to fight! For our freedom! Stand and fight!"

As they continued on with their rebellion, Erza suggested they go and free Jellal, and Wally teases Simon saying he doesn't stand a chance which leads him to confessing. Simon's confession was cut short by an explosion caused by their magicians. Erza, unable to move at that time was about to get shot with a blast strong enough to kill her, but Rob stood in the way of the blast. When the blast cleared, Rob said his final words as he parted from this world. He used the last bit of his power against the enemy and perished.

Erza's POV

I suddenly felt sick, hopeless and angered all at once. I felt my mind go blank, I felt everything around me fade. I felt as though there was an invisible door in front of me which had just opened up. I felt my consciousness fade away into it. Everything I saw was a blur. I somehow lifted up all the weapons around me ready to strike. My breathing was irregular. I felt as though I was about to scream, but then all of a sudden, I was brought back to reality. A figure wearing a purple gi appeared right in front of me out of nowhere. I looked at him wondering where he came from, and who he was. All the weapons I had raised earlier, slowly went back down. "Shit... I was too late..." said the figure in a torn up purple gi.

I looked and realized he wasn't one of the bad guys and also wasn't a slave. He suddenly was clad in a soft but fierce white cloudy mist, and he felt like a storm, both metaphorically and literally. I saw him getting farther and farther away. I only realized it was everything around which was getting pushed back when I heard the commotion going on everywhere. The figure, was a boy with black hair. His hair slowly lifted up and started waving. I could feel the pressure in the air pressing up against me literally! I could not believe what was going on. Is he... a wizard?

5 of the evil mages jumped at him. The boy looked towards their direction and said "Begone." The 5 mages who jumped at him were paralysed in fear and dropped to the ground.

"Hey you... the one with the beautiful red hair... Do what you were doing..." I looked at him facing the enemies not afraid even one bit. " Avenge the fallen... "

Just then it hit me. Beautiful?! He called me beautiful! I thought as I blushed. Just then, I had realized, I had forgotten about everything, including Jellal, Rob and this place, as I stared at him in awe.
