"No. . . It can't be." Zera winced but didn't feel anything, so she focused on healing her face because there was a huge mark. Zera looked towards Nana Shimura, only to see that she was no where in sight.

She looked back at the angry man who seem to know her, but his scent said otherwise. She sniffed him, feeling an all to familiar death scent. 'He. . . It's like his.' She thought with wide eyes. 

The man wasted no time and threw another punch, but this punch had heavy impact. The punch's impact was like getting hit by multiple boulders. It made Zera spit out saliva and cough out a little bit of blood.

"Oh, What's this? Don't tell me this is actually the Ripper that I've heard so much about." The man continued on kicking her in the chin, not giving her enough time to get up and fight back, properly.

"Pathetic. To think that he lost to a weakling like you." His voice darkened, each and every one of his words were laced with poison. "And to believe that you're Fiore's Number 1 Mage. Oh man, the irony!" The man continued to taunt Zera, laughing as he kept on kicking her even more, to the point where she was practically paralyzed.

Zera stood there on ground still conscious, with a blank expression, she was unable to feel the pain that the man had encased on her. The man's beating felt like being attacked by a pillow.

The said man looked down at the dragon slayer, unsatisfied that she felt  nothing. He had once heard a rumour that spread through out Fiore, about Zera being unable to feel physical pain. No one knows how and why she wasn't able to feel it, some felt envious, others felt amazed, and some didn't believe it so they really didn't care because it hadn't peaked their interest.

An idea popped in to the man's head, he had once heard about an ancient spell that was able to enhance one's pain, as well as take away their humanity.

'I wonder if enhancing her senses of pain will affect her.' The man grinned, liking the sound of that idea, 'The monster deserves to lose her sanity for killing my Uncle!'

Zera heard his thought and her eyes widened , 'U-Uncle?! Wha--. . Don't tell me he actually had niece's?!'

Now with a wide smirk, "You know I have always wanted to test something."

Zera, whose eyes slowly started to normalize, changed in to a blank facial expression because her brain was still processing some information. She blankly looked up, black blood dripping down her face, she formed new cuts and bruises. The man gripped on to her long hair, yanking her up, with a huge and crazed look.

"Ne va te koon gef joos ba ne Woka sa." He started to chant foreign words, Zera who was still on the ground, recognized the familiar language and started to panic.

'It can't be. . . Only one person can chant that spell!! There was only 1 left in their blood line. . . And I got rid of him. . So ho--'

"Curious? Aren't cha?" He equipped a knife and slowly started to cut Zera's face. As he cut the bridge of her noise, it started to glow a faint red. That red glow was actually a seal. The spell being casted was a seal that sealed away mystical/celestial beings such as Angels or --- any of those things.

The seal was able to seal away strong beings such as them, so why was he casting it on Zera?

Zera struggled to get out of his grip, she soon started to wondered why she felt so helpless in this state, she has the power to easily defeat him, but why can't she use it?

Finally noticing the red glow on the bridge of her nose, she gasped because she felt as her magic power were being sealed.

[The seal is able to seal away the target's magic power, limiting their use of magic]

"What the----" Zera felt a bit lighter as she started to glow a bright blue color.

The man growled, turning to the direction that the blue glow was coming from and saw that a woman with black short hair (Nana Shimura) was using magic to prevent him from fully casting that spell.

"Why you---" As soon as Zera saw the man move towards Nana to cast a spell to stop her from interfering, she did a drop kick to make sure his aim went another direction.

Zera's blood continued to drip and she was slowly starting to lose consciousness, she couldn't focus on the fight and soon started to black out. She noticed that her magic power was slowly decreasing, not fully but it felt as if it were being sealed away. The same thing had happened a couple years ago, with the Magic Council because they had feared her immense magic power and decided to 'try' and seal her away.

The man didn't expect Zera to escape his grip and was surprised to see that she had more fight in her than he had expected. He slowly turned towards Zera, away from the woman (Nana) and shot a sharp glare, "Looks like the rumors about you having a lot of fight in yeah, is true."

Zera who was now struggling to get up and hold her stance, was now wobbling because she couldn't hold her balance, "I don't know who you are. . . Or why you decided to attack me now. . But know this, Mess with a member of Fairy Tail and you mess with all us members!" Her eyes started to turn pitch black and she slowly started to grow more teeth on her sides of her mouth. She soon then started to grow a tail, horns and spider legs on her back. This was known as her infamous form, Satan Soul: Arcane, it is very rare to see and horrifying up-close.

"Oh wow thats your infamous Satan Soul: Arcane, What an honor that I get to witness it!" The man grinned, asking for her to attack him with it, "Lets see how powerful it is, seeing as I sealed at least half your magic!"

Pissed off, Zera went straight for the man only to be encased with the same familiar glow. "Huh----"

Zera disappeared in to thin air, Nana had taken the time to fully complete the transportation spell when Zera had distracted the man.

The man was enraged to see that Zera was no where in his sights, charged at Nana only to punch air, Nana's form in Earth Land was a projection, similar to Jellal's.

"A projection?!" The man frustratedly threw another punch.

"I am sorry Zera," Nana heavily gasped, "I hope you will be the one to protect----," her voice got lower and she slowly started to fade, "One For All. . ." Those were her final words when she faded away, only angering the man even more.

"WOMAN COME BACK HERE!" He yelled, his voice echoing through the burning oasis of fire, "BRING BACK ZERAAA!"
