Acnologia would soon make his mission come to an end when he makes sure every Dragon Slayer alive has died, then and only then could his Masaru rest peacefully. Everything will soon come to an end...he'd make the world pay for taking her from him.

He'd make the dragons pay for forcing her to suffer years upon years with unbearable pain that slowly took her life until it had been too much for her body to handle any longer.

To him, the world and any type of dragons were to blame for her death, their suffering. If dragons never existed then they wouldn't have been separated so soon...their promises they made to each other would've remained.

As of right now, Acnologia was in his dragon form chasing after the wizards in a ship which harboured a little dragon slayer and a woman with a really strong magic power that felt similar to him...he didn't think it could be Masaru solely because she had been dead for over 400 years.

So who was this demon woman he felt on the ship along with these humans?

"Just what are your connections to, Acnologia?" Erza asked.
"To explain that would reveal his weakness, or what would be in the eyes of you humans. Do you really think I'd just reveal such things?" Masaru asked.
"Even if we were to threaten you to it wouldn't do much would it?" Jellal asked.
"Indeed, no outcome for you all would be given. For as I could always just freeze this ship in a blink of an eye letting him win." Masaru explained.

'To think she has this much magic power...even if it rivals Acnologia's why does she protect him!? Doesn't she realize all he's done? Or is there something more?' Erza thought.

"You are correct Erza Scarlet, there is more to it between Acnologia and I. But what it is well...that secret stays with me," Masaru explains.

This was no use, sure she helped them in the past but when it came to Acnologia she wouldn't lift a finger to help them. Looks like they will be fighting him on their own, however, Masaru knew their next move. They planned to push Acnologia into the time rift forcing him to be alone forever once more.

Masaru wasn't gonna let that happen, yes he caused such horrible destruction and killed many people in his path for vengeance but she wanted to stop him the way she knew he would ultimately do...she'd reunite with him and the two would let go of their past and move on together...their time had long since gone and Masaru hoped they'd go together.

The ship shook with the force of its path as it neared the rift, Masaru took this moment to slip away near the back of the ship using her ice to keep her in place when it spun around to avoid the rift. Just as they got back on course Masaru ran outside of the ship still on it and watched as Acnologia flew right through it.

The humans believed that somehow someway it would be enough to force him to go, but actually, he managed to blow right through and grab on the ship. This lead Acnologia and Masaru to lock eyes after hundreds of years, but due to her new appearance, he didn't recognize her at first.

'It's him...it's really him.' Masaru thought tears rolling down her cheeks.

'Who is this woman? And why...why does she seem familiar?' Acnologia thought looking towards he woman crying before him not getting a good glance with that hood up over her head.

It was heart-wrenching to realize that the two lovers were indeed reunited but in a way that one didn't recognize the other due to appearance and a slightly new sent.

As the others complained about the plan not working Masaru slowly raised her human hand up to the lowered head of Acnologia just as she was about to touch his face something happened which forced Acnologia to release the ship and fly back a bit.
