The Tempest Furies

Shadow God and the Iron Rock!

Finally getting to the climax of the arc. If you have read the manga, or have seen the anime, you know what's going to go down. As I've said before, i'm trying to keep things as close to the original as possible. But now that i'm thinking about it, i'm having troubles thinking of what to do for the next arc. It'll be tough seeing as Damos and Tetsa aren't dragon slayers. I'll think of something though. All you have to do though, is enjoy!

Everyone who was left headed toward the tower at the centre of Nirvana. While running, I couldn't hear any fights going on. "I can't hear Natsu anymore. And Richard has gone quiet too. Maybe they both won their fights already." I thought to myself as I looked to the tower ahead of us. There we would find the leader of the Oracion Seis, Brain. We would put a stop to his plans before he could lead Nirvana to its first target. "I'm not gonna hold back when we fight him. I'm gonna go all out, just like I did against Evergreen. It's the only way I can even stand a chance against Brain." I thought to myself as we came to what looked like an open area in the city. We were very close to the tower when we arrived at the open area, but what we saw really surprised all of us. We saw Cobra, unconscious on the ground, his giant snake nowhere in sight. And as for Natsu, he was being dragged away by Brain. "What the heck is Brain doing here? I thought he had to be in the tower to control Nirvana? Why's it still moving?" Lucy asked as we all tried to think of an answer. "There must be some sort of auto-pilot. That way, Brain can also defend the controls." Gray said as we all agreed. "What happened here, Natsu!?" Lucy yelled to him which alerted Brain that we were here. Natsu looked to us and I could tell what had happened to him. "I-It's moving. I just c-can't handle it." Natsu said which confirmed my theory. It seems that when he came back down to the ground from fighting Cobra, he fell victim to his motion sickness. "Hey guys! Please help!" Happy said as he was laying on the ground, a few feet away from Natsu. "Sir cat is still alive." Jura said which made me giggle a bit. "You guys gotta save Natsu! Brain's taking him away!" Happy said as we all looked back to Brain. "The six demons have been cut down to a meager three. We've been chopped in half. So in order to stop the bleeding in our once healthy ranks, I will fortify them with this one." Brain said as he looked at Natsu. "So three of the Oracion Seis are still active. So that means Brain, Midnight, and Hot Eye are the only ones left. And with Hot Eye, er, I mean Richard on our side now, we only have two left to take down." I thought to myself as I stared down Brain. "You must be out of your mind if you think you're ever going to get that hard head to cooperate with you!" Lucy said but Brain interrupted her. "Once Nirvana darkens his heart, he will gladly do my bidding. His goals and my won will be intertwi-" Brain began to say but Natsu suddenly bit his arm. "You still have the strength to fight!? How dare you lay your filthy mouth on me!" Brain said as he lifted Natsu up and threw him onto the ground. Natsu then looked like he was going to puke again from his motion sickness. Brain then looked to the rest of us and said "So you think you'll stop Nirvana? Try your best, but you musn't waste any time. We're quickly approaching our first target. It's the Cait Shelter guild hall." Brain said which shocked us all. "That's the guild that Wendy and Carla are from. Why would he want to destroy it?" I thought to myself but Jura interrupted my thoughts. He said "What is your objective? What could you possibly hope to gain form their loss?"  "The world on its head, in the blink of an eye, this guild of light will be consumed in darkness. Oh the things we shall see. What splendid horrors await us!" Brain said as me and Jura both stepped forward at the same time. "You still haven't answered my question. What do you hope to gain!?" Jura ordered as we both began to radiate our magic energy. The feeling from Jura was overwhelming, like a giant was standing right next to me. "I don't have to answer to any of you! I hold the reigns of light and darkness! Kneel before me and ask for one thing only, for mercy!" Brain yelled as he began to laugh. "He's far too delusional to hold a conversation. Come Jura, let us now face him together. We weren't able to do it before since Richard changed to our side. We'll crush him." I said as Jura nodded to me. "You hear me!? I asked you to kneel!" Brain said as he began to charge up an attack with his skull staff.
