FIORE ARC

Third Person's Point of View

Not a moment aftet Lucia said it and the rest of them could take another look at the map in the table, an earthquake suddenly occurred shaking the halls of Mercurius as the screams of people from the outside can be heard even in the meeting room.

With a rush in his actions, Natsuki instantly ran to his sister pulling her under the table while the rest of the the people inside the room followed in a suit.

"What's going on?" Lucia questioned in panic holding the arms of her brother for her dear life.

"Must be the effect of the vanishing kingdoms." Raven answered back slowly crawling out of the round table.

"Raven what are you doing?! Get back here!" Gaia called out stopping the man from his action by grabbing him by his shoulder. But Raven remove himself from the witch's grasp giving the girl a glance his eyes hinting worry.

"My sister is in her room right now!" He stated about to crawl again but was pulled back by Natsuki and Azule that had a tight grip on each of his foot.

"Beatrice can handle herself!" Natsuki said back.

"Besides, who would actually want to be saved by a flattened person?" Azule smirked all slightly.

Raven was about to protest but was stopped when the shaking abruptly came to a stop, not a sign of shaking can be felt.

With their guard alerted, Natsuki and the people inside the room stood up checking for any signs of after shock. When no occurrence came, a sigh of relief escaped Seiko's lips. Lucia was about to walk towards the window in thought of checking the damage that the earthquake brought but was pulled back when Natsuki grabbed her by her arm. The minute she was covered by the arms of her brother the window where she first stand exploded. The impact of the explosion created a strong gust of wind causing most of the window's shard and debris to fly in Natsuki's direction which he instantly acted fast enough to conver his sister expecting the glass shard to create some sort of impact to come but was surprised when the impact didn't came as some sort of barrier coming from Tyrant's hand instantly covered the people inside the room.

Everyone instantly engage themselves in a fighting stance when a series of laughter coming from the outside echoed in a now dysfunctional room. The smoke from the window that was caused by the explosion cleared up revealing a smirking Jackal.

"This guy again!" An annoyed Raven stated. Another set of laughter was about to come from Jackal but was instantly cut off when a flaming fist landed on his face while a frozen hand striked him on the stomach at the same time.

"Hey..." Natsuki called out in a low voice his voice lacing with threat. "If that glass shard damaged any piece of skin on my sister..." He trailed off eyes getting darker while the flames on his curled fist cackled in heat.

"I'll roast to till you overcook!!"

"My girlfriend's skin is sensitive. Don't ruin it." With the same dark threatening manner as Natsuki's, Azule clenched his fist in anger his freezing fist cracking as the temperature seemed to dropped.

"How annoying! Why are you always showing at a crucial time?!" Azule mumbled grunting in process.

Another sets of laughter erupted from the now recovered Jackal. The bruise on his lower lip visible even through his cackles as he held his stomach that also had a bruise.

"Looking at him reminds me of a wild animal that just got out of the zoo." Areol stated, staring at the of of control looking man in front of him. "He looks like someone who doesn't have a clear state of mind." He added.

The other members of the guilds that was inside the palace of Mercurius instantly stopped in their tracks when Azule and Natsuki's fist glowed and exploded. The smoke from the explosion covering both their damaged hands.

"I totally forgot about that." Natsuki stated gripping tightly on his right arm that earlier went straight to Jackal's face. A scowl escaped Azule's mouth, both him and Natsuki wincing in pain. Lucia, gazed at her brother with worry reaching to call out for the man and was about to tell him to stop. Yet all worries she had for her brother's safety went downhill when a dark chuckle escape his brother's mouth. The previous smoke from the effects of the explosions on his arm intensifies til it burst into flames. "Too bad, I'm already used to it."

Lucia smiled, relief washed all her worries away as she watch her brother protecting her with all he's got.

"Don't get in our way. We already have to much problems to deal with your bull shits."Azule also had recovered from the impact and is now also prepared for an attack.

Though with their newly found resolve to kick the guys ' butt, Jackal pay their irritation no mind and went in for an attack which the two quickly countered, the three of them exchanging blows one after another that Kiara was getting bored of it and decided that it'd be better for her to check on the civilians state after an earthquake's occurrence. Raven also decided that he would check on his sister that w currently in her room when the earthquake occurred though, he knows Kirin and Ash won't let anything happen to Beatrice. Taking a step, the two walked in opposite direction, Kiara aiming for the outer garden where the three are still brawling heading to the gates of Mercurius to check the civilians while Raven walked to the door where Natsuki first got in to head to her sister's room. Their actions were put to a stop the minute the area where they were both aiming to head on to exploded.

"What the---" Areol was also abruptly cut off when Jackal aim another attack to their direction but was blocked again by the barriers of Tyrant. Natsuki and Azule came to attack again. Jackal expecting a physical attack from the two but was surprised and caught off guard when Azule jump up grabbing Natsuki by his left leg and throwing him higher than his current height.

"Dragon Slayer Secret Art: Crimson Lotus Explosion!!!"

Natsuki's magic set the skies of Mercurius red the tornado like fire of his magic twirled in both his hands smirking at Jackal that was preparing defensive on Natsuki's magic. Though, his eyes went wide as his guard faltered when the aim of the fire went from him to the other side of the castle which at first he thought the guy got no control over his fire.

The contemplation though turned to panic as he realised that the fire was heading straight to the center of the Domus Flau. He rushed to fend off the attack but was caught off guard by a hammer made of ice went straight to his head resulting him to be sent back to where he first stand.

"We got her. All clear!" Natsuki grinned upon hearing the voice of Archive on his head in a telepathic way.

"Nice one Luce!" He stated giving a girl a thumbs up. Lucia became a big help on this one, on the meeting too.

Just as Kiara went on to check the civilians. Lucia noticed that Jackal was trying to keep the girl in place. Which got her to realize that Jackal was trying to separate them into something. Specifically on the outside of Mercurius'halls. Her suspicions was deemed correct when she received a telepathic call from Archive regarding another lacrimated body in the areas of Domus Flau. Automatically, while Jackal was detracted, she immediately relay the message to the two telling them that the barrier of the lacrima is already broken and all that is left is dragon slayer magic. Which, Natsuki and Azule put the plan in action.

"I'm so glad Areol and Merry wasn't noticed to be missing!" Gaia said sighing in relief. Areol was sent out to destroy the barrier since he's not a dragon slayer.

"Too early to celebrate though." Azule said eyeing the body of Jackal that was rendered unconscious by him, its body slowly turning black. "What the hell is happening to him!"

Tyrant eyed the now black body in front of him. He then look back at the young members of the guild and sigh.

"Just like how he should have been. A dead man."

————

A man holding a small black clay sighed.

"Ahh... my toy broke." He then look at the man in front of him sitting on a red chair. "Oh well, guess I'll make another one."

He giggled, still eyeing the man cloaked in a dark hood.

"What are your next plan Reviver?"

The man didn't respond, chuckling darkly raising his hand raising to repair the clay yet making a different form. Not soon enough, the form he made on the clay was now standing in front of him.

"What's more interesting than making use of Zeref's previous toys?" Finally the man said in between his dark laughter. "To destroy the people he would want to protect so dearly?"

————

"Brother!!" Instantly, Raven wrap his arms on Beatrice relief washing all over his face. The people around them smiling at the sight their seeing.

"So now, what do we do?" Lucia looked down at her feet, seeing the look on Seiko and Isabella made her so heartbroken. "The problems are increasing one after another."

"Well, isn't that the reason why we're here?" Areol's voice caught her attention causing her to raise her head to look at the guy.

"That's right." Kiara also encouraged, placing a hand on the girl's shoulder. "Never ending problems means never ending adventures."

"And to start it off, all we have to do is to solve them one after another." Azule and Gaia confidently stated smiling at the down girl.

"We are together, and we'll also fix this together." Raven said clutching his sister that was smiling encouragingly at the celestial mage.

"That's right." Natsuki's voice boomed in the gardens of Mercurius. "Our struggles might urn to a Tower of crisis, but we can overpower it by flying higher than any tower."

He glanced at the girl grinning at her sister that was about to cry due to the encouragement of her friends. He held a hand out which her sister took without any hesitation.

"Let's go! To a new adventure."
