Together Through Thick and Thin

FT Chapter 3

Erza's POV

We lined up, magic prepared as I made the first attack. "Requip!" My armour changed into my most powerful gear. I summon every weapon on my arsenal and send them forth to attack!

We we're hit by a fatal blow, from stars, light, weapons and all sorts. A magical convergence blew the main attack force back - but Sabertooth and Blue Pegasus has promised to help. Ichiya's guild... will fight at the sides with a quarter of our guild split for each side and Sabertooth would take the back with the rest of our alliance. I felt nothing as my armour was somewhat unscathed... minus the arm guards. "FAIRY TAIL ATTACK!!" I command and see The Strauss siblings take on their Soul forms. "Satan Soul!", "Beast Soul!", "Animal Soul!!"
The ranged shooters, Cana, Bisca, Alzack and others all hit them from the back. The maker magic users shot next and so did I.

The on come was awful... but as the dust cleared... the guild stood unscathed and members strong. Then I readjusted my eyes. Mira and Mira were fighting, so we're Elfman and Elfman. "Edolas." I grumble as Vermillion steps in front of me, armour clad and sound. "Yes, we are." She prepared her swords and shook out her hair. The length grew and changed to a shade of scarlet all too familiar. "Knightwalked!?" I gasp, as the memories come back. She was putting her hair up into a wavy ponytail and adjusting a scarf on her neck. "Hello Scarlet," she smiled, her eyes strangely calm. "It's Vermillion now though. What brings the weakest guild in Fiore all the way out here?" She was completely relaxed. "No reason, except you stole from us! You have ruined our reputation and been callous to us! You have no hearts, or they are made of ice!" I scream at her with all my might, signalling for the guilds to prepare the next wave. "Hypocrites, this is only the start of our masters revenge. You have hurt those in your own guild and brought this on yourself. Minerva! Master! Prepare for the next  fire!" I announce as a dark skinned lady and a familiar blonde stood proud. "Right!" Minerva nodded, but the blonde stood with a scowl. "Don't order me around! But sure," she grunted and I recognise her. The girl who acted like Lucy before she left us in ruin. I glare at Vermillion before turning to the mature and motherly woman. She was Layla Heart, she had kids, she was too old... well not after that. "Hey!" I call to her, making her turn in annoyance. "Are you her?" I ask inconspicuously.

"Your gonna have to be more specific, I am a she, but so is Ver." She motioned her hand to the Edolas me. I stop with a frown, my eyes recognising her in a flash that I didn't see all those times before. "You did this to your guild!" I yell, anger overtaking me. "You will be killed!!" I signal for the attacks to start and launch at the door. Blowing it down with great force but instantly it repaired itself and threw me back. A new sword blocked an arrow, "Time for a rematch, Scarlet."
