(Insert Opening Theme: Egao No Mahou)

A pair of eyes brown eyes open up.

ai mo~ yume mo~ kimi to~ naraba~, majikaru ni kawaru

The camera pulls back revealing Wendy Marvell, her body surrounded by a glowing teal aura with the vastness of space, and many colorful stars behind her. She has a saddened look on her face with her hands together. She becomes happy and excited as she opens her hands forward, a ball of blue light emitting from her palms as sparkles of light fly out from it. Closing her eyes Wendy begins to float away with a small smile still on her lips, floating away a few feet before her body turns around and she floats to her left. Spinning back around and floating to her right towards the center as she comes to a stop and throws her right arm outwards, her palm facing up with the ball of light still in hand as it brightens up engulfing the entire screen in white light.

saa egao no~ mahou wo kakeyou~

The sun shines brightly in the center of the sky, clouds swirling around it until an arm stretches into the center, the hand in a tight fist as a second later many more fists, a few of them armored, appear around the first one in a circle. One of the hands doing a two-finger salute instead. The camera pulls back revealing the mages, and henshined Kamen Riders of the Allied Forces extending their right arms out in a circle, all of them except Wendy with serious looks on their faces. Happy and Carla in front of their respective Dragon Slayers as they also extend their right paws forward as the title slowly fades in at the center.

Neo-Heisei Riders Tail

mondai darake no, pawafuru na sekai ni

The camera pulls back just as a leg is planted on a small rock, revealing the members of Team Natsu and the Kamen Riders as the rays of the sun shine down on them. From right to left Happy sits on a rock beside Natsu who has his leg on top of a small rock as the two look off into the distance. Gaim holds Daidaimaru on his right shoulder while his left arm rests atop the hilt of his sheathed Musou Saber, Fourze stands beside him with his hands behind his head. Gray has both of his hands in the pockets of his pants, Double stands with his arms crossed as his scarf flaps in the wind. Lucy is a bit behind Double with her left hand on her hip while both Wizard and OOO have their arms dropped to their sides, Erza her right hand to her hip. After a few seconds the background changes to a brown backdrop with a large piece of parchment behind the two groups, the faded orange symbol of Fairy Tail now in front of them.

chotto akogareteta~

The camera slowly pans up until revealing Lyon Vastia, Sherry Blendy, and Jura Neekis as the rays of the sun shine on them too. After a few seconds the background changes to the same as before, a brown backdrop with large piece of parchment as the faded green symbol of Lamia Scale appears.

tomatta jikan ugokihajimetanda

The camera pulls back revealing the Trimens standing in a diagonal line with Eve Tearm in the back, Hibiki Lates in the left middle, Ren Akatsuki right middle and Ichiya Vandalay Kotobuki at the front as stars sparkle around him. The entire shot changes to a purple background with flashing lights, and various outline colored stars as the Trimen strike various poses with Eve throwing his right hand forward in a two-finger salute, Hibiki his arms crossed also with two fingers held up in each hand as he winks with his left eye, Ren partially covering the left side of his face, and Ichiya letting out a yell while throwing both his hands forward with his thumb up, and index, and middle fingers pointed forward. The background changes once more to the brown with parchment backdrop as the faded blue symbol of Blue Pegasus appears.

Scene changes to Wendy as she looks down, the camera panning down to show Carla at her feet as she turns to see Happy walk towards her with hearts in his eyes and floating from his face as he stops beside her.

kimi ni deatte ka~ra~

His eyes return to normal and the hearts disappear as he bends down and picks up a ribbon wrapped fish, presenting it to Carla as the hearts resuming flying out and up from the left side of his head. Carla looks away closing her eyes showing absolutely no interest in the present as the camera pans back up to show Wendy closing her eyes and smiling happily. As the background changes again as Carla appears beside Wendy with her serious face, the faded light blue symbol of Cait Shelter appearing in front of them.

Scene changes to the gathered members of the Allied Forces. Happy and Carla on a high rock as Happy has hearts floating around his head as he looks at Carla trying to show off, while Carla has her body turned away but looks at him out of the corner of her eyes. Behind them from left to right are Gaim, Natsu, Lucy, and Wendy as the four look down at the two Exceeds. Gaim with his hands resting behind his head, Natsu with his arms crossed, Lucy bending forward with her hands on her hips, and Wendy with her arms outstretched to the sides. As behind them are the rest of the group from left to right, Wizard, Double, Fourze, Gray, Erza, OOO, Jura in the far back, the Trimens with Ichiya also looking at the Exceeds with an intrigued face, and finally Sherry and Lyon on the far right.

doushite umarete ikiteru~ no ka~

A large purple coffin with a red spiderweb at the top, gold markings all over, and chains wrapped around is seen in the middle of a dried up riverbed with trees on either side and a cloud of dust moving around behind it. A blue image of Jellal appears before it changes to red as he opens his eyes, also wrapped up in chains with glowing blue spiderwebs on different parts of his body as an image of Erza appears to the right as she turns with a surprised look on her face.

The coffin is revealed to be standing beneath a towering object, a massive rock at the center with six stone legs connected almost like a giant spider.

The purple symbol of Oracion Seis appears with a dark background as it begins lighting up. The scene changes to the six members standing side by side as a wall of fire erupts behind them covering them in shadow.

muzukashii kotae wa iranai yo~

The scene changes to a cavern with fire in the background, as one by one the members of Oracion Seis slide backward into view. Racer appearing on the far right, Hoteye, and Midnight on the left, Cobra next to Racer as his snake Cubellios is wrapped around him, Angel in the center with Gemi and Mini on her shoulders. Brain appears next standing in front of them all followed by Apollo Geist appearing on his right, and Doras on the left. Brain lifts his magic staff, a skull with a green leafed headpiece reminiscent of what Native American chiefs at the top, forward. The eyes and mouth glowing in dark green before a purple magic circle appears brightening up the screen before a blast of dark green flames come shooting out.

waraou~ nakou sunao~ de ii~

Racer jumps and zooms around in the air dodging energy arrows, ice arrows, and ice eagles before rushing forward. Gray, and Lyon who are both half naked wearing only their pants stand side by side, their hands together as cold air surrounds both of their hands as Gaim who is in Jimber Cherry pulls up on his cutting blade and crouches down, pulling back on his Sonic Arrow. Gray slams his hands on the ground while Lyon throws his forward, Gaim releases his Sonic Arrow firing a massive energy bolt while Lyon uses his magic to create a giant ice dragon that roars.

Lucy swings one of her golden keys down, summoning Aquarius from the water in front of her as Angel swings her silver key summoning Caelum which appears and flies forward.

shinpuru na kimochi, ichiban daiji~, kanashii~

OOO in his Latorartar Combo rushes forward. Hoteye's eyes glow with orange light as he throws his left hand forward sending forth a powerful shockwave which causes the ground to liquify and blast upwards like waves on the sides. Doras releases a powerful laser blast from his body, Midnight throws his right arm out and then swings it forward in an arc sending multiple shockwave-like cuts with red aura surrounding them forward. Brain aims his staff forward and releases a massive blast of dark green energy, Apollo Geist crosses his arms and transforms into a massive fireball propelling himself forward. Double in LunaTrigger fires a massive blast from his Trigger Magnum, Jura holds his right hand forward as a yellow magic circle appears in front of him causing the ground to shoot upwards. And finally Wizard in Land Dragon Style summons his Hell Claws.

yoru ni nagasu~ namida~, tsuyosa ni kaeru, saa egao no~

Cobra stands on Cubellios as they hover high in the air, a massive, sadistic grin on Cobra's face. In front of them Natsu who is carried by Happy, and Fourze in Rocket States as Natsu ignites his right fist and rushes Cobra. Cubellios dodges Natsu's attack flying to the left and pulls backwards dodging an attack from Fourze as the snake then smacks both of them with her tail sending them towards the ground. Both Natsu and Fourze recover before impact and fly forward with Cobra giving chase. Cobra continues to grin as he swings his right arm, causing what looks like dark red flames to appear from his hand. Natsu grits his teeth in anger and flies at him once more, igniting his left fist in flame as Fourze pulls his body backwards and extends his right leg forward, propelling himself forward with both of his rockets.

mahou wo kakeru yo~

The Trimens dance their way forward, with a blue backdrop, lights, stars, and two disco balls flashing behind them.

The scene switches to a view of a expansive forest as Happy and Carla fly up and forward. Wendy and Natsu appear with smiles on their faces as they jump back, their Exceed partners appear again, this time in front of them, with Lucy, Gray, Erza, and the Kamen Riders floating behind them.

At a recently opened restaurant in a corner of Hargeon called 8island…

"Welcome to 8island! Have you decided on your order?" Lucy asks in a cute manner with her eyes closed and a big smile on her face.

"Uh~, I would like a blue-sky with meat sauce, and a holly soda-poyo." the young male customer in the wizard clothing says looking up from his menu at Lucy, while across from him his compatriot who was in a white suit with a green shirt and black tie underneath, continues looking over the menu.

Lucy was currently wearing a rather revealing waitress outfit reminiscent of a maid, a low-cut dress with the 8island name written across the chest, a white apron, white stockings, brown high-heels with a golden buckle on the side, a white collar with a red ribbon on her neck, and a white headband. Her hair was tied into two side ponytails with red bows tied to them.

"I'd like the beast-man curry." the other gentleman says.

"Right! Thank you for your order!" Lucy thanks.

She then gives a wide smile "Would you like some dessert with that?"

"Then I'll also take one of these ruby parfaits-poyo."

"Same for me." both customers reply holding up their menus and pointing at the item they wanted.

"Coming right up." Lucy replies with a nod before turning and walking away.

"Please take my order too!" a slightly older male asks with pink oval blush on his cheeks.

Lucy takes a large step back and looks at the man "Yes coming!" she says with her eyes closed and a big smile again.

Several seconds go by and then suddenly Lucy's eyes go blank and widen as her mouth drops open seemingly in shock "Wait, what the heck am I-!" Lucy throws her small clipboard to the ground but it bounces back up and smacks her in the face.

She is only stunned for a millisecond though as she finishes "am I doing?!" she yells in anger and annoyance with her teeth now sharpened as she holds her hands up and wiggles her fingers around.

"Lucy." Natsu calls out.

"What?!" she asks turning her head to look at him as three red exclamation marks appear beside her head.

"This is part of the job you know." Natsu says, he too in a waiter's outfit as he wore a white collared shirt with a black vest over it, he still had on his signature scarf though as he carried a platter with a single large chicken leg on it, and a bowl of rice.

"I don't see how this is a job for wizards at all!?" she questions with smoke puffing out from her head while the customers stare at her in confusion.

"And what's with this embarrassing getup?" she adds in while grabbing the sides of her apron and turning around to look at what she was wearing, an aura of dread surrounding her as she didn't like the outfit one bit.

"How should I know?" Natsu says.

Lucy's demeanor changes only slightly as she puts her right hand to the side of her head and left hand to her waist as she strikes a pose "Well, I do look pretty damn good in it actually." she says with sparkles surrounding her.

"Right, whatever." Natsu says.

"The chef at this restaurant uses magic to cook." Happy says also in a waiter's outfit with his entirely black with a red bow as he carried a tray with two cups on it "That's why he wanted his waiters and waitresses to be magic users as well." he explains.

"Yup." Natsu says in agreement, though sounding a bit weird as he says that as Lucy notices something.

"We're helping out too, you know." Natsu says while nonchalantly chewing down on the chicken leg with the whole thing nearly stuffed into his mouth.

The customer it most likely belonged to, right next to him as he stared at this with complete shock and confusion, his eyes widened and blank, his mouth dropped open, and a sweatdrop on the left side of his head. Lucy throws her tray smacking him right in the face as the customer cries out in a panic with sweat flying from his head while all the other customers let out an "Ooh" of shock.

The tray slides off Natsu's face revealing his face to now be red, in the shape of the tray as the whole chicken leg was now in his mouth as he continued chewing on it, his eyes though a bit rectangular widened as he nevertheless appeared to be unfazed by this.

"Don't eat the customers' food!" Lucy says in an annoyed tone while Happy slides back away from her in fright on his right foot with his left leg raised, his mouth dropped open and a large sweatdrop on the side of his head.

Happy places his foot back down "And don't throw the serving tray!" he points out.

"Sometimes…" the voice of Gray speaks up as he then appears making Lucy open her eyes as she and Happy look at him.

Only to take notice that he was once again half-naked as he only had his black boxers, and a red bowtie on "Dressing up like a waiter is pretty nice." he says with a tray of drinks in his hand.

"Try saying that after you put on the outfit!" Lucy states with widened eyes and black lines under her left eye.

"Come on now. Whose rent are we doing this for again?" Gray questions while lowering the tray down to his side.

Lucy mumbles while closing her eyes and lowering her head "Sorry…" she says since indeed the Fairy Tail mages were doing this due to her rent being due soon, meaning they needed to make some money so she could pay for it.

"And besides, look." Gray says.

Lucy opens her eyes and lightly gasps as a yellow and red outlined exclamation mark appears by her head.

Someone else in a waitress outfit struts their way towards a table with three customers at it. Lucy's mouth hangs wide open in the shape of a square with her eyes widened and her pupils widened in a rectangular shape while her head slowly tilts to the side. Her breathing sharp due to being shocked by what she was seeing.

The three male customers were gawking as Erza placed her right knee on the table and leaned toward them a bit seductively "Let's hear your order." she says in a pleasant voice.

"What is it you desire?" she asks leaning a bit more toward them "Come, tell me." she continues, her voice seemingly echoing out.

As if the heat in the room had turned up suddenly, all three males were now sweating nervously with blushing cheeks "Uh…" the older male with square glasses on mutters.

"I-I want!" the young man with the brown hair says.

"Yes!" the young man with tan hair shouts.

"Please give us one of everything!" the three of them unanimously shouted.

"Oh? That will be a great help. I must give you my thanks." Erza says.

"Glad to be of service!" the three men shout again as smoke rose from their heads and their entire faces nearly turned red, Lucy and Gray having of watched the entire situation both had large sweatdrops appear on the back of their heads.

"We got someone really into it…" Gray says.

"I'll work hard too…" Lucy says.

Erza stands back up and looks at the two with a pleased hum "This is yet another battle to be won!" she states.

Lucy sighs "Maybe I should have gone with Kouta and the others to just advertise this place."

"Except you really didn't have much of a choice considering the owner practically picked those guys to place advertisements all over the town while we got chosen to do the serving part of the job." Gray says.

A motorcycle rev is heard as Wizard pulls up to a large wooden board with a bunch of papers advertising various things on it. Getting off his Rider Machine, Wizard grabs a piece of paper from the satchel he was carrying along with a pin and nails the paper to the wall, on it was a bunch of stuff for the 8island restaurant.

"Well, that takes care of this area. Time to head back." Wizard says as he re-mounts his Machine winger and drives off.

Fourze was pinning one of his papers to another board somewhere else in town, OOO was handing out flyers to people in the streets, and Gaim was putting his dancing skills to use. A crowd of spectators gathered in awe as they watched the fruit-themed Kamen Rider skillfully spin a sign around, Gaim holding the sign up with one finger above his head before dropping it back down in front of him and spinning around with it. He then threw it into the air and performed a backflip, catching the sign in his arms once again as several people cheered and clapped for his performance. Beside him was a small table with some flyers on it as people walked by and would grab one or two out of curiosity to the place he was advertising.

Double pinned another paper to a board as he let out a sigh "Another slow week. No jobs with bad guys to beat up, or any Dai-Shocker related incidents." Shotaro complains.

"More than likely Dai-Shocker is planning their next move. As for the bad people of this world, perhaps our rising fame has scared them into not doing anything that would attract us. Or perhaps they too are planning their next move." Philip says.

"Yeah~. Wish someone would just do something already. I don't know how much more of these types of jobs I can handle. A hardboiled detective needs his daily dose of action at least once, and perhaps twice a week. Instead it's been one boring job after another." Shotaro says.

"Knowing our luck, I am sure something will happen very soon. We always seem to attract trouble to us either way. You should come to appreciate moments like these just like the others do." Philip says.

"Helping people out I don't mind. But I much rather do that by kicking someone's ass, and if I do have to do something like this I would prefer it not be for too long. Unless it's part of some undercover mission or something than I don't mind." Shotaro says.

Philip can't help but chuckle "Oh Shotaro, always a man of action."

The sun began to set, and with this the Riders began to individually make their way back to the restaurant as it would soon be closing which meant their work for today was done.

Some Time Later…

It was now sunset as the 8island restaurant closed its doors for the day.

"Well then. Good work everyone. Kids these days sure do work hard. Come back any time"

Both Team Natsu and Rider had gathered out behind the restaurant, the Riders de-henshined, and most of the Fairy Tail wizards back in their normal clothing, save for Erza who was still for some reason wearing her waitress outfit. Natsu, Happy, and Gray sat on a bench against the wall, Natsu's body bloated from all the food he had eaten while working, while Lucy, Erza, and the Riders stood up.

"Yes. I learned a lot today." Erza says with a nod of her head in agreement.

Behind her a red and yellow outlined exclamation mark appeared over Happy's head as he took notice of the fact Erza was still in her waitress uniform, while Kouta turned his head to her with a red and yellow outlined question mark popping up above his head.

"Why is she still wearing her work uniform?" Kouta questions.

"It looks like she's really into it." Happy says.

"I think I understand better how Mira-chan must feel." Gray says.

"Man, what a feast!" Natsu proudly proclaims.

"Do I even want to know why Natsu looks like the way he is?" Shotaro asks, already knowing the answer though.

"You ate too much of the restaurant's food!" Lucy scolds as she turns to him with her hands to her hips.

"What's the big deal about it?" Natsu questions in an annoyed tone as he turns his head away.

"What's with your attitude?" Lucy questions with two red and yellow outlined popping veins appearing on either side of her head.

"The point is the food isn't yours to eat it's for the customers." Eiji says putting his right hand to his forehead with his eyes closed.

"Perhaps taking jobs at a food place with Natsu around is a bad idea." Haruto says with a sweatdrop on the back of his head.

All the while as they spoke, in front of them, sitting atop a wooden crate was a short, elderly man with thick light-brown eyebrows, and a small toothbrush moustache that reached halfway to his mouth, his eyes were closed, and he wore the basic chef clothing complete with a chef hat on his head. This was Yajima, a member of the Magic Council, as well as a close friend to Makarov.

"By the way Yajima-san. What has happened with the Council?" Erza asks.

Yajima lowers his head and puts his right hand on the side of it "Well, I've already retired." he says.

"The Council?!" both Natsu and Gray say in shock and fear with widened eyes and shrunk pupils.

"What, you didn't know?" Lucy asks as the two shakingly turn their head towards her with slightly opened mouths "Yajima-san used to be a member of the Council."

"Zuuku…" Yajima says as he seems to be thinking about something else. He then puts his hand to his chin "Or was it Zullal?"

"Jellal." Erza embarrassingly corrects him appearing in a circular, light green, cloudy speech balloon next to him.

"Ah yes, that's right." Yajima says opening his eyes completely.

"The betrayal of Zullal and Ultear was quite the blunder for the Council. Now should be the time to establish a fresh, new Magic Council, and the groundwork for it seems to be being laid in all quarters." Yajima continues.

As she listens, Erza has a slight expression of anger showing on her face as she thinks back to all of the evil things Jellal did back at the Tower of Heaven "It caused you all quite a lot of grief it did. I am really sorry about that." Yajima says now rubbing the top of his bald head.

"No, I've heard that you were set against firing Etherion the entire time. And you even retired out of shame for the actions of the Council." Erza says as the others continue listening in on the conversation.

"I'm not fit for governing." Yajima says, a small skillet now in his right hand as he was frying some food in it currently, suddenly he opens his eyes "As I thought!" Yajima shouts.

His skillet now glowing for some reason, Yajima jumps into the air and proceeds to do a bunch of spins, backflips, and many other things, along with throwing the skillet into the air. Quite rapidly and skillfully to for one his age as he ends with throwing his left arm up and outwards while holding his right arm in front of his face "I have a lot more fun being a cook!" he proclaims as the skillet flies back into his hand and he lands back on the ground.

Everything darkness around him as a bright white spotlight shines down on him as he holds the skillet in his right hand into the air with his left hand behind his back, and a wide toothy, smile on his face.

"By the way, Natsu-kun, Gray-kun..." Yajima says as he stands up on the crate. Jumping down from it as Happy jumps off the bench and walks away and Yajima approaches the two young male wizards. Terrifying the both of them as their mouths drop open in terror and their eyes widen and pupils shrink, both of them yelping out with sweat flying from their heads.

Yajima stops in front of them with his hands behind his back as he opens his eyes and stares at them with a serious look on his face "There will be a new Council now. I won't be there any longer." he then closes his eyes and lowers his head with a look of sadness now coming over his face "That means that no one will be there to speak up for Fairy Tail."

His expression changes once again as he opens his eyes, his right eye wide open with his left eye opened and narrowed in an annoyed manner "Be sure to behave in a way that keeps that in mind!" he states. Both Natsu and Gray looking down at him shaking in complete terror with their mouths still dropped open, their eyes still widened and pupils still shrunk.

The two swallow their breathes and rapidly nod their heads repeatedly while saying loudly "We'll behave!"

"Tch, if only that would remain true forever." Shotaro says.

"As for you Kamen Riders." Yajima says now turning towards them as they look down at him while humming "Hm?"

"Now that I am no longer there, you will need to work extra harder than before to ensure Dai-Shocker brings no harm to the people of Fiore. Especially if you want to keep where it is you truly come from a secret from the Council." Yajima says.

Hearing this everyone on Team Natsu's cries out in complete shock with dropped jaws, and widened eyes "EH~?!"

Surprisingly, Shotaro and the other Riders' response to this are simple hums, nodding heads, and Shotaro smirking as he closes his eyes "As I would imagine." he says.

"Wait, you know about Shotaro and the others?" Erza asks.

"But how?" Lucy asks.

"And why aren't you guys freaking out about this?!" Gray questions while pointing at them.

"Shotaro had his suspicions that gramps had someone high up in the Magic Council looking out for us, and helping us deal with Dai-Shocker." Kouta says while pointing at him with his left thumb while his right hand was on his hip.

"I had Philip do a look-up in the Gaia Library, and sure enough old man Yajima here and Master Makarov have a history. Teammates and friends in Fairy Tail back when they were both young, so surely that friendship would continue all the way to even now, correct?" Shotaro says.

"That is correct." Yajima says with a nod of his head acknowledging it.

"Who else would you imagine has been working hard to make sure Fairy Tail has remained for this long, what with all you younglings causing trouble every now and then. But yes, Makarov entrusted me with the secret you Riders have and I had been assisting you by supplying Makarov with information that could be related to Dai-Shocker. Most of which later turned out to be true from what he told me." Yajima says.

"Guess now that we're actually meeting in person, we should be thanking you for all those times you pointed us out to Dai-Shocker activity we probably never would had discovered until later on." Kouta says.

"Yeah, you really helped us out a lot. Wish we could had done more with that information." Gentaro says.

"Do not worry, I'm sure you Riders did what you could and perhaps even prevented something bigger from happening in certain areas. Never thought I would be meeting people from an entirely different world. And yet here we are. Still though, now that I'm no longer part of the Council, all of you are going to need to work hard, and be extra careful. The old Council was already taking interest in you due to all of your feats since joining Fairy Tail, especially when news reached us at how you were able to fight evenly against Jose of Phantom Lord. The new Council will most likely be eyeing you from the start, and unless you want trouble you best do well in preventing Dai-Shocker from gaining attention and causing real trouble. If they were to discover Dai-Shocker, and find a link between you and them, it wouldn't surprise me if they came for you first." Yajima says.

"But why? Shotaro and the others have nothing to do with Dai-Shocker, they're protecting us!" Lucy questions.

"As true as it is, the fact that both of them come from the same world, and the Council knows next to nothing truly about them, and that they could have information on Dai-Shocker. The Council would not hesitate to arrest you first, both out of fear, and for information. Everything you have done so far proves to me that you are young men with good hearts, and that you intend nothing ill towards us. But the new Council will not let the feats you have done cloud their judgement from thinking you could also be bringing trouble to our world with your mere presence. Or perhaps could even be acting as enemy agents, pretending to be good only to lure us into a false sense of security." Yajima says.

"Bullshit! Shotaro and the others would never do that!" Natsu says in anger upon hearing this.

"If it wasn't for Shotaro and the others who knows what Dai-Shocker could have done to Fiore already." Erza states.

"I know this, but again the new Council won't let such previous actions cloud their judgement if in their eyes and minds the Riders were just putting on an act to deceive us all." Yajima says.

"It's alright Yajima-san. We understand completely. Politics can get really stupid like that. But if I were in their shoes I would probably want to be cautious too. After all if it wasn't for the fact you guys already know our secret, how would you have reacted if we didn't share our secret at all and it just came up suddenly one day. Along with hearing about Dai-Shocker, an army of monsters from another world invading yours in an attempt to take it over. Wouldn't you be suspicious of us as well?" Shotaro asks.

"No way!" Natsu shouts with raised fists.

"Not a chance!" Lucy says.

"Absolutely not!" Gray states.

"No!" Happy says.

"Never!" Erza says, all of them at the same time.

"Right, probably the wrong group of people to ask considering everything else that has happened." Shotaro says rubbing the back of his head with a small smile.

Yajima chuckles "Fairy Tail, its members still sticking out for each other no matter what. That is what makes Fairy Tail special, never forget that." he says.

"Well, you heard him Riders, now that our higher up informant is gone, we're going to be working ten times harder to make sure Dai-Shocker doesn't destroy the peace in this world? Think we can handle that?" Shotaro sarcastically asks.

"Yeah!" the other Riders all triumphantly reply.

"And don't forget about us either. Wherever your fight with Dai-Shocker takes you, we'll be there alongside you. Showing them the power of Fairy Tail wizards!" Erza states.

"Yeah!" Natsu and the others shout in agreement.

Yajima gives a proud smile at the group as he nods his head two times.

With this, it was finally time for the Fairy Tail mages, and the Kamen Riders to head back home.

The Riders mounted their Rider Machines while Natsu and the others got into the carriage that brought them here and begun to head out, Erza's cart full of a large amount of luggage being pulled behind "Say hi to Macky for me!" Yajima yells out as he waves goodbye to them with his left hand.

"Aye~!" Happy yells in joy as he and Lucy lean out the back of the carriage with Lucy waving back at him.

"Thank you very much for today!" she yells back.

Yajima continues waving as a strong gust of wind blows through the town.

The Next Day…

Fairy Tail Guild…

"What's this?" Lucy asks.

At the center of the Fairy Tail guild hall was a large floating chart of sorts as some members of the guild, as well as the Kamen Riders, gathered around it "It's an organization chart of the Dark Guilds." Mirajane answers.

"Yes, I drew it." Reedus says while holding a light pen.

"When you look at it overall, there are quite a lot of them." Cana says.

"Which means a lot of potential allies for Dai-Shocker." Shotaro thinks in his head, most likely the other Riders also thinking the same thing as well.

"Just wondering why is it up here?" Kouta asks, actually curious as to why the chart had been drawn in the first place since the first thing that came to his mind now was that something big was potentially going on.

"Because lately it seems like their activity has increased." Mirajane explains, a serious look on her face.

Lucy looks at Mirajane and hums in a confused manner as a light green question mark appears by her head. Meanwhile the Riders exchange glances at one another, wondering if this increase in activity could potentially have anything to do with Dai-Shocker's presence.

"We have to strengthen the bonds between guilds." Mirajane says.

"What's the big oval?" Gray asks.

"Juvia knows. It is the Baram Alliance." Juvia says, making Lucy gasp in shock.

At the center of the chart was a large oval, at the top a large rectangle reading Baram Alliance as inside the oval were three more, smaller ovals with names inside of them, most likely the names of some Dark Guilds. As the one on the left read Oracion Seis, the one on the bottom said Grimoire Heart, and then finally was the Dark Guild Tartaros on the far right. And from those ovals, a bunch of lines were drawn out from them, out of the larger oval and to a large number of smaller rectangles and brackets, inside all of the smaller rectangles were other names, names of Dark Guilds.

"The Baram Alliance?" Gentaro asks.

"The Baram Alliance is the most powerful force of Dark Guilds, combining the three guilds of Oracion Seis, Tartaros, and Grimoire Heart." Juvia begins to explain.

"Guessing those guys are the head honchos 'cause they're the most powerful Dark Guilds out of the entire bunch." Shotaro says feeling like this was true.

"And all of those other names, also Dark Guilds?" Eiji asks.

As this goes on Natsu and Happy casually sit at a nearby table eating some food, Natsu having some chicken legs while Happy scarfs down on his fish. Nevertheless the two do pay attention to what is being discussed as Natsu turns his head to listen in some more.

"Correct, each of them have a number of associated guilds. And it is the Baram Alliance that controls the world of the Dark Guilds. Then there's the guild that acts independently from the rest, Raven's Tail." Juvia finishes.

"Raven's Tail? Sounds like we have some fans in the world of Dark Guilds." Haruto humorously remarks, though he and the others knew it most likely had something to do with the guild's leader of Raven Tail being Makarov's own son who was excommunicated from the guild some years ago.

"Huh?" Lucy suddenly says as she seems to notice something on the chart "Eisenwald?" she questions as her eyes turn beady as she peers over to Erza who is standing to her left side behind her.

"Yes. That's the guild that Erigor was in." Erza confirms, making Lucy have a small sweatdrop appear on the side of her face.

"So that was one of the guilds associated with Oracion Seis huh?" Gray says.

"Not just them, looks like the Dark Guild we ran into on that one job, Executioners of Death, are also one of Oracion Seis' lackeys." Kouta mentions.

Sure enough, both Eisenwald and Executioners of Death were both up there connected to Oracion Seis as they both had large red X's crossed over them confirming they were no more.

"There's a lot of names that I remember up there." Wakaba speaks up.

"Aren't there some that used to be official guilds too?" Macao adds in.

"Ghoul Spirits, the one that the Thunder God Tribe destroyed, was also one of them." Mirajane says.

"And the guilds Juvia and Gajeel-kun destroyed when we were in Phantom were all from Oracion Seis!" Juvia joyfully exclaims with a large, upward smile on her face, appearing in an orange circular speech balloon.

"Please, don't go smiling about it…" Gray remarks with his eyes closed as he pops up in a circular green speech balloon.

"So it looks like Oracion Seis has taken quite a hit recently." Shotaro says with a smirk.

"Uh-oh. I hope they're not angry." Lucy says in a worried tone as she holds herself with her body shaking.

"Don't worry about it! There's nothing to fear!" Wakaba says sliding into view with a grin on his face making Lucy stop shaking as her eyes shrink "From the rumors I hear, they've only got six members!" he proudly proclaims.

Hearing this made Lucy smile widely as she clasped her hands together happily while Macao slid into view "Damn, how small a guild is this?" he asks.

"With a name like Oracion Seis, I would suspect they keep true to their name and only have six people, correct?" Philip says.

"Highly doubt it's that easy. Like I said before, the fact that there are a bunch of Dark Guilds answering to these guys means something. No way was it just a drawing from a hat to decide who the head honchos were, these guys were made a part of the Baram Alliance for a reason, even if they have only six members." Shotaro says.

"Shotaro is absolutely right. Even with only six people, they're a member of the strongest organization." Mirajane says.

"About that Oracion Seis." the voice of Master Makarov calls out from the entrance as everyone turns, gasping in shock "We're going to attack them." he declares.

Natsu turns his head while still eating his food while everyone else gasps in shock once again while staring at the Master. Everyone goes silent, and the silence remains in the air for some time.

Until…

"Welcome back, Master!" Mirajane casually greets.

Everyone collapses, Natsu, and Happy onto their table, Lucy, Reedus, and Eiji onto their backs, while everyone else falls forward save for Mirajane, Philip, and Makarov.

"How was the regular meeting?" Mirajane says back to her usual cheerful personality as if the last several minutes of serious discussion had not even taken place. Especially the last part.

Lucy gets back onto her feet with widened, blank eyes and her left arm held up into the air until she fully gets back up and puts her hand on Mirajane's shoulder "Way to miss the point!" she says as Mirajane looks at her slightly confused.

"Master, what are you talking about?" Erza asks jogging up a bit to him.

"At the regular meeting the other day, we discussed the recent activity by Oracion Seis. As it is not something we can ignore, we decided that some guild has to fight them." Makarov says.

"You pulled the short straw again Gramps?" Gray asks.

"And Fairy Tail will take on that role?" Juvia asks.

"No…" Makarov says as he begins walking down the steps "The enemy this time is too powerful. If it were only us, then afterwards the Baram Alliance would retaliate only here. And that is why we have formed an alliance ourselves." Makarov states as he throws his left arm outward making his cape flap behind him.

"An alliance?" everyone questions.

"Fairy Tail! Blue Pegasus! Lamia Scale! Cait Shelter! These four guilds will each send out members to strike these guys down!" Makarov explains.

"But we could handle it ourselves no problem!" Natsu proclaims appearing before Makarov "Or actually, I could even handle it myself!" he then adds in while pointing at himself with his right thumb.

"Naive fool!" Erza says pushing Natsu on the side of his face "The Master is thinking about the consequences afterwards!" she explains while retracting her arm.

"Master's right. If we go in attacking and manage to defeat Oracion Seis. What's to stop the rest of the Baram Alliance, or even all of the Dark Guilds under their command from raining down on this place? We attack them with an alliance, well the Baram Alliance can't attack all of us at once in retribution. And if one of us gets hit, the others would come to our aid, or us to their aid as well as per an alliance." Shotaro explains.

Natsu still annoyed by this as he fixes his head and looks back at her with smoke puffing out from his head "So, wait a second." Lucy speaks up, once again shaking in terror as she holds herself as she then leans forward and holds up her left hand with her right index finger on the palm "The enemy only has six members, right?" she questions with widened eyes and pupils.

"How crazy powerful are these people then?"

Meanwhile…

It was a sea of trees as far as the eye could see, a number of cliffs and mountains surrounding the area as for some strange reason, at the very heart of the forest, the entire area was blackened out by a dark mist.

"I can hear it…"

Standing on the edge of a nearby cliff were a group of people, at the lead was the marooned hair man, and his violet scaled snake from before as they looked out into the forest "The sound of the breaking of the light!" he eagerly states while caressing the chin of his snake.

"Don't be so hasty, Cobra." a male voice from behind spoke making the man identified as Cobra turn his head with a "Huh?"

"Well, being hasty ain't so bad." most of the other figures were clouded in shadow.

"That magic we're talking about is hidden here, Racer." Cobra says.

"A magic that will bring about darkness and break all light, yes!" another male voice. This one slightly high pitched spoke from behind on his left.

"Nirvana…" this time a female voice quietly said.

Amongst the group of people, was a very lean, slightly effeminate young man with short spiky black hair on the top, and longer, straight white hair on the bottom, with long strands of white hair framing either side of his face as the right strand was adorned by five maroon beads. The young man wore a black leather vest with white fur trimming, a white armlet around his right bicep, and a black choker around his neck; a pair of yellow pants with black stripe, almost twig-like designs on them, and burgundy boots. He also had spiked bracelets on his wrists, and skull earrings on his ears. On the right shoulder was a red guild mark. The young man was, for some reason fast asleep on top of a floating dark red magic carpet as he snored loudly.

Someone tapped their dark wooden staff against the ground a few times, the dark staff had some bandages wrapped around near the top half as at the tip of the staff was a white skull, adorned by a headpiece reminiscent of those worn by Native American chiefs. Along with a headpiece that was composed of dark bluish cloth, and yellow up and down zig-zagging markings on it creating a jagged formation, stones aligned over the top of the cloth, red feather-like objects hanging down beside the skull, and at the back were two yellow strings with blue rings attached to the ends. The skull also held a turquoise, round stone in its mouth.

"The legendary magic will finally be ours." another male voice, this one much deeper, spoke.

"Is this Nirvana magic really all it's cracked up to be?" the voice belonging to the man known as Racer questioned.

"Behold. The land has begun to die. Just because Nirvana is nearby." the man with the staff says as he points it towards the part of the forest with the black mist engulfing it.

"If this Nirvana is as powerful as you claim it to be." another male voice speaks up as the group of people turn their heads slightly to see as two more figures, shrouded in darkness approach from behind stopping a few feet away.

"Then we must move quickly. It may not be long until your presence here is noticed. And the last thing we would want is someone getting in our way."

The large, purple warthog-like animal breathes in and out rapidly as it pulls the carriage along, inside of it Natsu and the others while the Kamen Riders rode beside them on their Rider Machines.

"Why do I have a feeling like something really bad is going to happen? And wait! Why am I participating in this again?!" Lucy cries out in a highly worried tone as she has her hands on both sides of her head.

"It's not a picnic for me either, you know. Stop complaining." Gray says while sitting a few feet next to her.

Lucy lets out an annoyed groan through her puckered lips, something Happy copies as he turns his head to look back at them, and then there is Natsu who lets out a weakened groan as he sits in the carriage next to Erza while holding his stomach. As his motion sickness once again takes hold on him, his eyes narrowed and shaped like ovals as blue lines travel down from his left eye.

"The master chose who went!" Erza says making the others look at her "Shouldn't we be happy he trusts us with this duty?" Erza asks as she turns and looks at Lucy.

Lucy lowers her head as her eyes turn to sadness "But when it comes to fighting, there's Juvia, or Gajeel…" she says while raising her head to look back at Erza.

"Well the two of them had other jobs to do." Happy explains while chewing on the remains of a fish he had been eating during the trip.

"Plus, there's a high chance we could be running into Dai-Shocker on this mission. Oracion Seis is up to something big, and if they are then most likely Dai-Shocker won't be far behind, unless just like what happened with Jellal they've already allied themselves with them. If that's the case he would want this team to be made up of us, as well as the people who know our secret." Shotaro explains.

"And what about our allies from the other guilds? Shouldn't we be worried about them?" Lucy asks.

"We should, but what other choice do we have? Master was right, going up against these guys by ourselves would be very dangerous for Fairy Tail. We just have to hope things go our way, and if Dai-Shocker is here, we can handle them without the other guilds knowing about them." Shotaro says.

"There's not even a guarantee Dai-Shocker is here. But Master feels like there's a probability of it, and we all feel the same. If they are, then that's why we're here, if not, then we're here either way to help you guys bring down Oracion Seis. Especially since they're supposed to be really powerful. Even with only six members." Kouta says.

Natsu suddenly slides down onto the floor as Happy looks down at him "So...are we...there yet?" Natsu asks in a weakened voice.

Suddenly his face bloats up as he can feel his lunch about ready to come up and out at any moment.

"In the end, it's the usual gang." Lucy points out with her eyes closed appearing in a pink eye-shaped speech balloon up to the right of the carriage.

"Don't you think that's for the best?" Erza asks appearing in another speech balloon to the bottom left of the carriage, this one orange

"This will be the first time teaming up with other guilds. The first thing that's important is forming better ties with the other guilds." Erza says.

"Well some of us will be able to do that no problem...depending on the people from the other guilds anyway. Some of us though…" Shotaro drawls out.

"I can see it!" Happy shouts.

Shotaro looks back forward "There's the meeting place!" Happy shouts again as the group spots a large mansion ahead of them.

Coming to a stop in front of it, everyone disembarks with Haruto sending the Riders' motorcycles away while Lucy and Happy help Natsu get out of the carriage while Erza and Gray look up at the mansion.

The doors to the mansion are pushed as they loudly creak open, the inside of the mansion was pitch black as there was not a single light anywhere on. Only the light from the outside allowed the Fairy Tail team to see a little bit of the inside as the lobby of the mansion was extremely huge, a large, and long red carpet was rolled out from the entrance to the far staircase, and off to the sides were two statues of Pegasus's, which made since as this place was owned by Blue Pegasus as it was their mansion the groups from the other guilds were to gather at.

"This place's decor is seriously creepy." Lucy comments.

"It's not that bad honestly." Gentaro says.

"This is Master Bob's villa, from Blue Pegasus." Erza explains, as they walked in all of the lights suddenly began turning on one by one until the entire room was lit up.

"Him?" Gray says as a light blue thought bubble appears a few feet above Gray's head as he remembers back to the face of Blue Pegasus's master.

"Him?" All of the Riders say simultaneously.

The images from the night of when they fought Lullaby come flooding back to their minds, as they then remember what kind of man Master Bob was when he introduced himself to them.

"I-I'm not so good with him…" Gray says as his eyes are blank with blue lines going down underneath his left eye.

"Now, no, don't go there. He's powerful enough to give our own master a run for his money despite..." Erza says trying to remain optimistic as her eyes are closed with some blue lines under her left eye as well.

"I see…" Lucy says with a drop of sweat on the left side of her face as she also tries to remain a bit friendly on the whole thing.

"On second thought if he's here, I may decide to call in sick and go back home." Shotaro comments as his, and Kouta's eyes are also blank, Kouta's mouth hanging open while the others try to be like Erza and Lucy, remaining friendly with smiles on their faces, but their eyes closed.

"You say that Erza but I am not one bit interested into learning what kind of magic he uses." Kouta comments.

"Are we there yet?" Natsu asks while sitting on the floor, still having not fully recovered yet from the ride.

"Yes, we're here Natsu." Happy says standing behind him.

"Yes! You've arrived!" a young male voice yells out catching everyone's attention.

"Arrived!" two more young male voices yell out.

"Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Welcome!"

"Welcome!"

"Fairy!"

"Fairy!"

"Tail!"

"Tail!"

"Folks~!"

A spotlight suddenly shines down from nowhere towards the foot of the staircase as three shadowy figures appear.

Natsu and everyone else are completely confused as to what is going on while Erza has more of a serious look on her face.

"Sorry to keep you waiting!" the three males shout in unison as the middle one has their left arm held up in the air in a greeting manner, the one on the left has his arms crossed, and the one on the right has their hands to their hips.

Team Natsu and Rider stare at the three shadowy figures of the young males as they greet the Fairy Tail group.

"We…" the middle man says stepping forward.

"Are the representatives chosen…" the young man on the right steps forward, he was slightly shorter than the one in the middle.

"From Blue Pegasus." the young man on the left says as he steps forward, this one being just a little bit more taller than the middle young man.

"Trimens!" they all say in unison.

The young man in the middle raises and crosses his arms in front of his chest while holding his index and middle fingers up as the spotlight seems to focus on him "Hibiki of the Hundred Nights!" the young man introduces himself as golden sparkles appear around his upper body.

Hibiki had spiky, somewhat messy brownish blond hair framing his face, he wore a dark, double-breasted suit with a pair of distinctive light lines circling each sleeve and lower leg with the symbol for Blue Pegasus being on its left shoulder. This was over a pinstripe blue shirt, a darker blue tie, complete with polished dark dress shoes.

Hibiki slid off to his right as then the shorter of the Trimens slid into view, introducing himself as "Eve of the Holy Night!" with his right hand held forward and his index and middle finger pointing. There were sparkles around his upper body as well.

Eve was a short boy with blonde hair kept in a neat bowl cut with a few wayward strands covering his forehead and others jutting upwards on the top of his head. He too wore a black suit, but with his sleeves and lower legs adorned by cross-like motifs outlined in a light color as it too had the symbol of Blue Pegasus sewed onto the left shoulder. Albeit pink, instead of blue. Beneath was a lilac shirt with a darker purple tie, and polished loafers.

Eve slid out of view as the final Trimen appeared "Ren of the Silent Night." Ren introduced himself with his left hand over the left half of his face with his fingers slightly separated, sparkles also around his body.

Ren was a slim young man of average height with dark skin, he had dark, spiky hair reaching down to his shoulders, with long strands framing his face, and a short ponytail at the back of his head. His attire was of course a black suit, but with the jacket left open as his golden Blue Pegasus symbol was also on his left shoulder, he had a leopard patterned shirt with the collar also open revealing a small metal necklace around his neck, and polished, dark dress shoes.

The three Trimens stood side by side with Hibiki once again in the middle, with Eve on his right, and Ren on his left.

"Trimens from Blue Pegasus? H-How cool!" Lucy says with blush on her cheeks, instantly recognizing who they were from Sorcerer Magazine.

Though Gray of course wasn't impressed and Erza just stared blankly at them "And the one called Hibiki." Lucy continues to rant starstruck.

"He's always at the top of the "I wish he were my boyfriend" ranking in Weekly Sorcerer! You're that Hibiki Lates!" Lucy says as Hibiki slightly gasps from this and then closes his eyes with a smirk as he brushes his right bang upwards and winks at Lucy also giving her a smile, a small heart appearing above his eye as he does so.

"Hibiki?" Gentaro says as all he and the other Riders can think about is a certain Kamen Rider of their own named Hibiki. A trail of smoke dots outlined in red traveling above their heads forming a large thought cloud as the image of Kamen Rider Hibiki appears as he turns with his right hand to the side of his head "Because I am well trained…" the voice of Hibiki echoes.

"Crap! I forgot to put on clothes!" Gray cries out in a panic as off to the side behind one of the pillars Gray is now shirtless once more and prancing up and down with sweat flying from his head. Beside him Natsu leans against the pillar still feeling sick from the carriage ride as he shakes against it and slides down a bit now hunched over.

Lucy stares at the two with widened, and blank eyes and a large sweatdrop on the side of her head feeling completely embarrassed by the two's actions. She turns away, lowers her head while closing her eyes and lets out a sigh of defeat "Those guys? Not a chance…"

Erza looks to her left, a spotlight now shines on Hibiki as he holds his arms out "Your beauty doesn't do the rumors justice." he says ending with a snap of his right hand fingers and winking at her.

Erza looks to her right, Eve is kneeling forward on his right leg with his right arm in front of his chest and his left arm a bit out to the side as as courtesy gesture "How do you do, Titania?" he says as he closes his eyes causing sparkles to appear around him.

Erza turns her head slightly while still staring to her right, Ren walks up from behind her as he puts his left hand on her shoulder and gestures off to the same direction as Eve "Now, come this way." he says.

Lucy stares at this scene in awe with widened eyes and pupils as a trail of pink dots slowly scrolls to the right behind her. With speed and from out of nowhere, Eve and Ren with large open smiles on their faces rush in with a brown couch with a large pink heart, attached to it; a white outlining the pink one as the white heart is adorned with a number of colorful light bulbs as they flash in different patterns. All the while Hibiki guides Erza over to the couch as she takes a seat in the middle of it.

Suddenly Hibiki is on his knees offering Erza a small towel on a wooden tray "Have a hot towel." he says.

Erza doesn't take it as she just stares at him, Eve runs in from her right pushing a small, short table with a bucket of wine in front of her, as he and Hibiki sit on the couch on either side of her "Are you hungry?" he asks.

"No…" Erza says.

"We have cake. How about some?" Hibiki asks.

"I'll pass." Erza kindly declines.

The Riders just blankly stare at all of this happening "Oh God...playboys." Shotaro says in an annoyed tone.

"We've only just met them and I already have the strange feeling I'm going to find them extremely annoying." Kouta comments.

"Can we even consider them introducing themselves to us, or more specifically Lucy and Erza even meeting them?" Eiji questions.

"Considering they've only payed mind to them and are completely ignoring us I would say so." Haruto agrees.

Gentaro rubs the back of his head and closes his eyes as a small smile comes to his face "Come on guys they're probably just messing around until the rest of the teams arrive. We can't really judge them off a few minutes of knowing them can we?" he says.

"I can." Shotaro says.

"I'm not one for doing so but these guys just might make it an exception. Especially considering the number of strange people we've encountered in this world so far." Kouta says as he looks off to the side to see the Trimen known as Ren not hitting on Lucy as he wraps his right arm around the front of her stomach and leans her back slightly with his left hand on her shoulder. Lucy all the while taken aback by this as she blushes.

"Let's work together for this plan." Erza says trying to get back to the matter at hand as she looks at Eve, Eve with a blank stare on his face as he looks back at her "We need to combine our strength and-

"So cute…" Eve says as he blushes a little.

Erza is surprised by this "That demeanor of yours, it's wonderful." Eve says as Erza is taken aback even more "I've always looked up to you." he finishes.

Shotaro closes his eyes and sighs in an annoyed tone "Even when Erza tries to get them back on track they just ignore her and continue hitting on them." he says.

"They do appear to have a considerably one track mind, I believe is the right saying to this situation." Philip comments more out of intrigue as Shotaro looks at him with a sweatdrop forming on the back of his head.

"Hey, hey, like you're one to talk considering your habit sometimes." Shotaro says.

Lucy is surprised by Ren as the two sit on another couch, Ren having of pushed a glass of wine in front of her with a straw in the cup. For some reason though, Ren is looking away and doesn't say a word, confusing Lucy a little as she stares at him wondering what he was doing.

"I-It's not like I made it specially for you, or anything…" he says while still looking away.

"NOW HE'S TSUNDERE?!" Lucy shouts in her head in complete shock at Ren's change in personality as her mouth drops open and her eyes go blank and oval shaped, beads of sweat going down her face.

"Come, you must be tired from your long journey." Hibiki says standing a few feet away, his eyes closed with his arms bent and held out as sparkles flash around him; Lucy and Erza now on the same couch together as they look at him with large sweatdrops forming on the back of their heads.

"Spend tonight with us…" Hibiki says as Eve and Ren appear on either side of him and all three of them kneel down on their right legs while gesturing towards them.

"Forever!" they say simultaneously.

Erza and Lucy's mouths hang wide open, their eyes widened with large sweatdrops on the front sides of their faces as a few blue lines are beneath their right eye, the two of them unable to even comprehend what to make of this...whole thing.

"Guests…" another voice suddenly speaks up drawing their attention to the stairs along with the Riders' and Gray, Natsu of course still recovering from his sickness...still…

A new shadowy figure began to walk down the stairs "Stay right where you are." the person says while brushing their right hand through the right side of their spiked, orange hair as sparkles flash around their hand.

Lucy holds her body as she blushes a little with her eyes and pupils widening in shock while also becoming watery, her heartbeat could be heard beating quite loudly as she asks "What's that silky smooth voice?"

"It's Ichiya-sama!" Ren nearly shouts with a serious look on his face while holding his right hand up in a fist.

"I-Ichiya?" Erza says, a small bead of sweat on the side of her face as for some reason, the look on her face was one of concern which could even be heard in her voice when she said the name.

Something Shotaro seemed to take notice of as he hummed wondering what was wrong with her.

It has been quite a while, Erza-san…" the voice belonging to the man known as Ichiya says as he places his fingers around a rose that was blue and sticking out of the left chest pocket.

Erza looks up at the top of the stares where the shadowy form of Ichiya stands, outlined by a golden aura of light and sparkles all around him "I can't believe it...You're joining us?" Erza questions. All the while she was shaking in complete fear.

"I-Is Erza shaking?" Gentaro asks taking notice of this.

"I think so. Not only that, it looks like the kind of shaking someone does when they're completely frozen with terror!" Kouta says.

"I've longed to see you, My Honey." the man known as Ichiya says, his full body now revealed in the light as he throws his right arm out to the side and holds his left arm bent upwards beside his face.

He was a short, and rather stout man with a somewhat rectangular face, he also had a large flat nose and prominent cheekbones, all of which were for some reason shining like crazy. His eyebrows were thick, a pair of lines were pointing towards his nose below them, and there was some stubble around his mouth as he also had a very prominent chin. His orange hair was in a wavy style as many curved spikes jutted outwards with one acting as a fringe on the left side of his face. As for his clothing he wore a white suit, the blue rose on the left side of his chest, with elbow-long sleeves along with distinctive pants ending below his knees in dark hems, the Blue Pegasus symbol on the left shoulder. Beneath was an orange shirt with a red bow tie. He also had a wide, dark red belt hanging over his right hip with what appeared to be several flasks being attached to it.

"Ichiya is here, at your service!" Ichiya announces as he spins around and throws his left arm forward curling his two middle fingers back to his palm while now holding his right hand up beside his face "*sparkle*" his voice echoes out for some reason.

"MY HONEY?!" Lucy, Kouta, Gentaro, and Happy all cry out in absolute shock with widened blank eyes and all color drained from their body as they were ghostly pale.

Erza's mouth hangs wide open in a rectangular shape, she was sweating profusely as her eyes were widened in complete terror, some blue lines hanging beneath her right eye and left eye with some blue lines also above her left eye. And she was still shaking as well.

"Erza is-!" Happy says.

"Shaking!" Lucy completes as the two take notice of this.

Shotaro's mouth hung open a bit as he, Eiji, and Haruto stared at Ichiya with completely blank expressions on their faces, they too also pale as they groaned.

Ichiya steps onto the golden marble railing, lifting his left back back and up into the air as he stands on the toes of his right foot and holds his arms out as he begins to slide down the railing, his eyes completely closed "What an unexpected…"

"What an unexpected." The Trimen repeat after him.

"...reunion!"

"...reunion!" they shout again while popping some cone-shaped party poppers.

Ichiya then jump flips forward into the air and lands at the bottom pedestal of the railing, striking the same pose as before "Wasshoi!" he says.

"Wasshoi!" Hibiki shouts while sliding by again and firing off another party popper.

"Wasshoi!" Ichiya says again.

"Wasshoi!" now it was Eve doing the sliding by and firing off another party popper.

"Wasshoi!" Ichiya repeats.

"Wasshoi!" Ren says repeating Hibiki and Eve.

The Trimen were now on their knees clapping for Ichiya "You're Ichiya-sama's girlfriend?" they simultaneously say before jumping onto their feet and turning around as they place their hands across their chest and bow forward to show respect.

"How rude of us!" they say.

"I DENY IT WITH ALL MY MIGHT!" Erza shouts with complete anger while pointing towards Ichiya, this scaring the crap out of Lucy and Gentaro behind her.

"If that man and Erza ever dated then someone must had been really, really, really drunk that night." Shotaro comments.

"Or something else but it definitely was not out of love at first sight…" Kouta says.

Ichiya seems to ignore the comments and Erza's statement as he stands atop the railing with his hands behind his back.

"Clean up!" he then shouts towards the Trimen frightening them as he then jumps to the ground "We didn't come here to play around." he says.

"Right boss! Right boss!" the Trimen repeat as they run off, quickly picking up and running off with the couch to put it back wherever it was they got it from.

"Weren't they calling him "Ichiya-sama" before?" Lucy questions.

"They're not consistent are they?" Happy says.

Ichiya closes his eyes as a smile forms on his face while turning to look to his left "I've heard about you." he says as his voice seems to echo on for a little bit after he finishes speaking.

"Erza-san…" Ichiya says pointing with his index and middle fingers together at Erza who stares back at him gritting her teeth in anger "Lucy-san…" he says then pointing towards her as she appears to be taken aback by this.

Ichiya then points over to where Gray, Natsu, and the Riders stand a bit off to the right, Natsu still on the ground and still slightly sick "...and the rest."

Gray, Eiji, and Haruto's mouths drop open in shock with their eyes going blank while Shotaro and Kouta's eyes go blank and narrowed while their teeth sharpening as they grit them in absolute anger, finding that not only annoying but completely disrespectful.

Ichiya turns his attention back towards Lucy "Kuh, kuh. Kuh, kuh." Ichiya...strangely says as he seems to be sniffing something with his nose.

Suddenly he is soaring through the air for a few feet "Excellent parfum!" he shouts landing back on the ground on his toes as he spins around and points at Lucy with the index and middle fingers of both hands, his right hand further forward while his right hand was held back. His voice also seeming to echo once again.

"You're freaking me out you know…" Lucy says shaking in fear while holding her arms, her eyes widened with sweat on her face while Erza stands behind her also a bit disturbed by this.

"Sorry…" Erza says closing her eyes and lowering her head a bit "I can't really handle him either." she finishes while taking a few steps back.

"He may be an incredible wizard, but…"

"Him and his tri-boy club are nothing but morons who could care less about anything else other than hitting on girls." Shotaro speaks up in a serious tone of voice cutting off Erza.

"Agreed! So listen up you crappy Blue Pegasus boy-toys! How about you stop making passes at our teammates, huh?" Gray states.

Ichiya and the Trimen just stare at the boys, Ichiya with a blank stare on his face while the Trimen stare at them, more specifically Shotaro and Gray angrily.

Kouta steps forward to speak "If you haven't forgotten, we came here to take out a powerful Dark Guild. Now's not exactly the time to be-"

"You men can go home now." Ichiya says cutting off Kouta.

This highly annoys and angers Kouta as he grits his sharpened teeth in anger with an orange popping vein appearing on the left side of his head, the same could go for both Shotaro and Gray as well as a number of purple popping veins appear in the background behind them. The Trimen appear in front of the two with their eyes closed and smug looks on their faces "Thanks for coming!" Hibiki says bowing his head, though the disrespectful tone behind his words could easily be heard.

"Thanks for coming!" Eve and Ren say next also bowing forward.

"They send posers like you on an important mission?!" Gray questions now getting really angered by the way they were treating him and the rest of the group "I could wipe the floor with you!" The Trimen straighten themselves as they look back at him with anger and annoyance in their eyes.

Try us." Ren challenges as both he and Eve once again have smug looks on their faces.

"We're strong." Eve states.

"If you little boys had been doing your homework then you'd know who you're about to mess around with." Shotaro says pushing the lower right part of his vest back as he readied himself to get serious with these punks.

"Someone needs to teach you guys some manners around here, proper manners." Kouta states reaching into for his back pocket ready to take out his Orange Lockseed.

"A fight?! Let me join in!" Natsu shouts now fully recovered and ready for a fight.

"He seemed to recover quite quickly from his motion sickness upon that word being thrown into the air." Haruto says with narrowed, beady eyes as he and Eiji who has his eyes closed have sweatdrops on the sides of their heads.

"Stop it, all of you!" Erza orders trying to calm the situation.

"Erza-san." Ichiya suddenly says passing by behind her as her eyes widened and her whole body shook while she whimpered in fright. Ichiya was now right behind her to her left, smelling her hair as it flowed from a gust of wind that seemed to appear from nowhere when he slid by behind her.

"Your parfum is incredible as always." he compliments as his nose could visibly be seen sniffing away, letting out a pleasured moan as he got a bit closer to her hair.

"STAY AWAY FROM ME!" Erza yelled out as she spun and punched him right in the face sending him flying.

"ME~N!" Ichiya cried out as his voice of pain echoed out.

"She went and did it!" Lucy cries out in complete shock with widened, blank eyes.

The Trimen were completely shocked by this as they looked over. Ichiya flew towards the open doorway, where another shadowy figure now stood "Men!" Ichiya cries out again when a hand extends forward stopping him mid-air.

Suddenly Ichiya's entire head becomes frozen in ice, something which Gray immediately takes note of.

"This is quite the greeting. You consider yourselves equal to Lamia Scale?" the figure lifts his head as the shadows disappear revealing a rather familiar face to the Fairy Tail group, Gray especially.

"Lyon?!" Gray says.

"Gray?!" Lyon says as his eyes widen upon noticing him and the rest of the Fairy Tail group.

Lyon was now wearing a white jacket with dark fur trimmings around the neck and cuffs that reached down below his waist, there were also similarly dark bands circling each of his arms, one above the elbow, and another above the furry cuffs. Underneath his jacket was a high-collared tunic very reminiscent of his old one, but much shorter as it just reached down to his waist and was colored red with light purple edges. All of this was complete with pants that appeared to be composed of snakeskin, with a pair of dark belts circling his thighs and an intricate dark pattern adorning the front of each leg, the pattern consisting of many rounded, rhomboidal figures linked together with each possessing a smaller figure in the center. His pants were held up by a simple light belt with a plain rectangular buckle, his outfit completed by simple dark shoes with lighter soles.

"Lyon?" Haruto says.

"That guy from Galuna who's also an Ice Make Mage?" Kouta asks.

"And was also an apprentice to Gray's master at the same time he was." Eiji says.

"So you joined a guild?" Natsu asks, actually sounding a bit happy and excited to be seeing him again.

"Hmph." Lyon says narrowing his eyes as he looks away.

Just then he throws Ichiya away "Me~n!" Ichiya cries out.

"Me~n!"

"Me~n…" Ichiya continues to cry out as he flies through the air, finally hitting the ground head first as this shatters the ice around him, where he hits is also very close to the Fairy Tail group as Erza, Lucy, Happy, Kouta, and Gentaro jump or dash away to avoid him. Gray is forced to duck low to the ground to dodge Ichiya as he bounces off the ground and flies over his head, hitting the ground again as he bounces once more back into the air.

"Men...Handsome men…" Ichiya says in a weak voice with water from the ice flying from his closed eyes and nostrils.

He hits and rolls across the carpet a few more times before finally coming to a stop in front of the Trimens.

"What the hell are you doing?" Gray questions Lyon in an annoyed and angered tone.

"He started it." Lyon states.

"What do you think you're doing with our General?" Ren questions baring his teeth.

"How awful!" Eve says also with a look of anger showing on his face.

"I think all the men should just leave." Hibiki says.

Kouta turns his attention back to Hibiki "And I think you still need your ass kicked if you keep on saying that crap!" he states now getting really angered and annoyed by these Trimens' attitude.

"Oh? But there's a woman here as well." a familiar female voice speaks up.

Suddenly a part of the carpet begins snaking upwards "Doll Attack! Carpet Doll!" the carpet, now with an evil-looking face on it, pulls itself up from the ground, attacking...mostly Lucy as she jumps away with widened, and blank circular eyes.

"ME?!" Lucy cries out also noticing how the attack was strangely aimed specifically at her.

"And wait!" Lucy says suddenly realizing how familiar not only the voice was, but also the magic "That magic" she says as a pink question mark appears next to her face for a few seconds.

"Doll Attack?" Haruto says as his eyes widened upon also noticing the familiar magic attack.

The female giggled as the carpet returned to normal, and suddenly standing at the doorway beside Lyon, was "Sherry!" Lucy shouts in shock "You also joined Lamia Scale?!"

Gentaro is about to speak up, when he stops and narrows his eyes in confusion "Who?" he asks looking over at Haruto with a black question mark appearing above his head, since it seemed like Haruto knew who the girl was.

"Not only was she one of Lyon's followers back on the island, but she and Lucy...well they had quite the scuffle that's all I'll say." Haruto says closing his eyes as a sweatdrop appears on the side of his head.

Sherry was not only wearing a new outfit, but she had changed her hairstyle too as it was pretty much all loose, leaving a medium-sized poof at the top of her hair while the rest reached down close to her mid-back. She now wore a pink dress with black trimmings.

"I won't allow you to say you've forgotten me. And please, forget who I was in the past!" Sherry says while pointing at Lucy with her left hand in her hair.

"Make up your mind!" Lucy says finding the whole purpose of that statement completely redundant.

A small pink heart floats up from her right eye with the word Love written in it "For love, I have been reborn!" she simply says.

Ichiya who is now recovered, comes bouncing up and down on his feet towards Sherry, through right in the direction of Erza causing her to turn with a look of shock and fear in her eyes "M-More parfum for me!" he shouts as Erza's entire body shakes once more in terror.

Erza suddenly summons a spear which she points right at Ichiya "Stay back! I'll cut you!" she threatens.

"Lyon!" Gray says seething with anger.

"Gray!" Lyon replies back in the same tone.

"Bring it on!" Natsu challenges with his right hand up in a come at me gesture.

The three Trimens stare angrily forward, light shadows covering parts of their faces. Shotaro has his Lost Driver out and at the ready along with Kouta who holds his Sengoku Driver ready to henshin at a moment's notice.

"Come on now, let's see if you're all talk and no bite." Shotaro challenges.

"Don't know what your problems are but you should learn to treat both women and men with respect!" Kouta states.

"I cannot love you." Sherry says with a smug look on her face as she stares at Lucy.

"And I hate you too!" Lucy says in anger.

Needless to say, the feeling in the room was really, really intense at the moment, as at any moment any one of the mages, or Riders could go off causing a chain reaction that sets everyone else off as well.

"Hey, hey come on now guys!" Gentaro says as only he, Eiji, and Haruto were the only ones not trying to start a fight with anyone.

"Can't we all just be friends like we're supposed to as allies?" Eiji asks.

"We shouldn't be fighting each other, we should be saving that for Oracion Seis!" Haruto shouts as all three of the Riders try to stop their friends, and new allies from starting something, unfortunately nothing seemed to be working.

Until suddenly…

The bottom end of a long, thin staff is slammed into the ground and a male, commanding voice shouts out "CEASE THIS!"

Everyone immediately stops and looks over to the doorway where the voice came from as another new arrival stands there "It is as the young man with the strange ring says. We are making an alliance to defeat Oracion Seis! This is not the time to be fighting amongst ourselves!" the rather tall, and massive man with a heavily muscular figure states.

The man wore clothing that to the Riders, somewhat mirrored something commonly worn by ancient civilizations such as the Mayans, or Egyptians, except for his thick booths which resembled Inuit garb. His chest was bare as it was only covered by a series of dark belts crossing it diagonally, around his neck was a short mantle that was covered in horizontal blue and white stripes and sporting edges decorated by numerous short, yellow strings hanging from it. On his arms were tight-fitting green armbands almost reaching up to his shoulders, they almost appeared to be made from the skin of a reptile. Around his waist there was a long loincloth which sported a motif composed of several arcs, with a single spot in each of their concave part, as well as simple decorations reminiscent of Fleur-de-lis above them. The loincloth was fur-lined, something which matched the design of his boots which were almost completely composed of fur, his loincloth was held up by a simple brown belt. Perhaps the most distinguishing part of this man was his...bald head.

The man wielded a long, thin, red staff with the upper edge ending in a globe of a crystal-like material, most likely a lacrima perhaps.

"Jura-san." Lyon says with a smile as he and Sherry look back at him.

"Jura?" Erza says, seeming to recognize who the man was, along with some of the other people in the room.

"He's the ace of Lamia Scale, Iron Rock Jura." Hibiki says.

"Who?" Natsu asks looking down at Happy.

"He's one of the Ten Wizard Saints!" Happy says.

"One of those guys? Like Gramps and Jose?" Kouta asks.

"Yeah." Happy says with a nod of his head to confirm this.

"Even I've heard his name before." Lucy says with her hand to her chest.

Sherry slides over to Lucy catching her attention "You Fairies have ten people, Pegasus has four…" she then turns away with her hands to her hips "But for us just three is more than enough." she says with a small smug smile.

Lucy's cheeks puff up angered and annoyed by her attitude as Happy appears in a wavy, circular, light blue speech balloon to the bottom left of them "How cruel! Why don't I ever count?" he questions with tears in his eyes.

"With this three of the guilds have gathered. All that is left are the people from Cait Shelter." Jura says.

"People? I have heard it is only one person." Ichiya says, while dangling from the top of Erza's spear.

"One person?" she questions upon hearing this.

"They only sent one person for a mission as dangerous as this?" Gray questions as he, Sherry, and Kouta are all shocked and surprised to be hearing this.

"They're either insane or this person they're sending is!" Kouta says.

"Yeah, what Kouta said!" Lucy says in a terrified voice as she puts her hands to her cheeks "How crazy dangerous is this guy?!"

Before anyone could say anything else, a loud yelp comes from the doorway followed by what sounds like someone falling to the floor.

"Hm?" Jura hums as he turns around, everyone else turning as well as there was now one more person in the room, lying face first on the carpet.

"Owwy~." the person begins to pick themselves up.

Erza, along with Shotaro, Eiji, and Gentaro all lightly gasped in shock, Haruto, and Kouta were also in shock but were more silent as they stared with wide eyes as to who they were seeing. Philip meaning narrowed his eyes as he seemed to notice something.

"U-Um~."

The Riders could really not believe what they were staring at.

"I'm sorry I'm late." it was a girl...a little girl.

No more than somewhere in the low 10s if one had to guess her age as she looked at the ground with her eyes closed, her hands behind her back as it was easy to tell she was being very shy. She then raised her head and gathered the courage to at least smile at them as she introduced herself.

"I'm Wendy, from Cait Shelter. It's nice to meet everyone!" Wendy says.

"Hm~?" Philip says putting his right hand to his chin as he looked more closely at her.

Gray gasps completely shocked by this.

"A kid?!" Lucy says as both her and Gray stare at the little girl with their mouths wide opened.

"A girl?!" Lyon says also shocked by this while Jura's face remains expressionless at this revelation.

"Wendy?" Natsu says, staring towards her as for some reason, he had the strangest feeling like...it was as if he knew her.

"I'm Wendy Marvell from Cait Shelter. It's nice to meet you all." Wendy introduces herself shyly with her hands behind her back.

"A girl?" Gray and Lyon question simultaneously.

"A child?" Lucy and Sherry also question a few seconds after.

"A little kiddie?" Ichiya questions, while on the ground with Erza's left foot on his head keeping him down.

"What a surprise. This little girl is…" Erza says.

"Wendy…" Ren says.

"Marvell…" Eve says.

"Eh?" Hibiki says with a sigh.

Natsu meanwhile remains silent as he just stares at her.

"This Cait Shelter…" Shotaro says.

"Sent a little girl for this mission?" Eiji questions.

The rest of the Riders stare at her all slightly confused by the situation.

Jura stares down at her, after a few seconds he turns and looks to his left "And now all four guilds have gathered." he simply says.

"You're just going to continue on?!" Gray yells out in shock with circular, blank eyes and sweat flying out from his head.

"Not even going to address the elephant in the room?" Kouta questions with his eyes closed also confused by how Jura just so casually waved the whole thing off.

Haruto looks over at Philip and hums upon noticing how he was looking at her in a bemused manner with his right hand to his chin "What is Philip?" Haruto asks.

"I don't know. But I feel like I've seen her somewhere before." Philip answers.

"But seriously…" Lyon says.

"Sending this one little girl for such a big mission? What is Cait Shelter thinking?" Sherry questions.

"Oh?" another female voice suddenly calls out catching everyone's attention "She's not alone, Miss Too-Much-Makeup." just then another figure appeared beside Wendy, this figure rather very small.

Happy gasps out in complete shock as his cheeks are tinted in blush, his heart feeling like it had just been jolted alive by electricity by the sight before him. The female voice belonged to a small white cat just like Happy! The female cat had pink ears and brown eyes which were smaller than Happy's eyes, she had two whiskers on each side of her face and wore a pink bow near the end of her tail. She was actually dressed up unlike Happy and wore a mustard yellow and pink top complete with a pink bow tie, and a pink skirt. The sleeves were very long which is what she used to cover her paws as they were held together in front of her while she looked at the rest of the Mages, and the Riders with a rather serious look on her face.

"A cat?" Gray questions.

"Looks like it." Lyon says.

"The same as Happy!" Natsu points out.

"Except she's a girl cat it appears." Gentaro says.

"It talks!" Lucy says.

"Which is literally what Happy does hence Natsu saying she's like Happy." Kouta points out with narrowed eyes confused by her words.

""Too much makeup?" How cruel!" Sherry says while covering her mouth, offended by the comment from the female cat.

"That's her problem?" Lucy questions with blank eyes.

"Carla, you came with me?" Wendy asks while looking down at the cat, it appeared they knew each other.

"Of course! I'd be far too worried with you going alone." Carla answers.

For some reason now the Trimens were all striking various poses with Hibiki having his right eye closed and his arms crossed in front of his chest, while Eve was pointing forward with his right index and middle fingers, and Ren was covering his left eye. All three of them saying "A cat." very casually.

"Delayed reaction?!" Lucy cried out with bulging eyes.

"Not only that why are they striking those poses?" Kouta questions with his eyes closed.

Just then Carla looked to her left with a hum, taking notice of Happy who continued staring at her with a look of shock on his face. Until he erupted silently on the inside with his mouth dropping open and hearts forming from his eyes with many other hearts shooting out from his body, it was love at first sight for Happy. Carla continued to stare at him while Happy was shaking in place, sweat running down his face while his heart rapidly beat in his body; and then Carla turned away with a "Hmph."

His heart felt like it had been struck by a bolt of lightning as a spotlight shined on him with everything else becoming complete darkness around him. Happy gasped as a tingling sensation traveled up his body making his fur shiver as he stared at her with shock once again expressed on his face.

"Hm?" Lucy hummed when she noticed something touching her leg making her look down to see Happy looking up at her.

"Hey Lucy, would you give her this fish of mine?" Happy asks while his tail wagging around behind him.

"Wait, is this love at first sight?" Lucy questions.

She then appears in a speech balloon in the bottom left corner with her right hand held up in front of her lips, concealing a mischievous smirk "Now, now. You have to make your move yourself or it won't work."

Happy lightly tapped his paws against each other while groaning nervously, sweat running down his face as he then closed and covered his eyes wiping them downward. Lucy watched the whole thing as she then leaned down toward him "You l~ike her!" she says mimicking Happy. It was now her chance to get back at him for all the previous times he made fun of her in the same manner, the grin on her lips said it all.

"You're mimicking me!" Happy cried out in shock with bulging eyes "And you're rolling your tongue 3 times more!"

"U-Um… I can't fight at all… But I can use a lot of magic that can help support you. So…" Wendy whimpers out "So please don't leave me out!" she whimpers out louder while closing her eyes as tears shoot out from them.

Everyone was at a bit of a loss as to what to say at the moment.

"It's because you're always so weak-kneed that people look down on you!" Carla points out.

"I-I'm sorry." Wendy says looking down at her.

"I'm saying not to apologize so quickly!" Carla says while crossing her arms.

"I'm sorry!" Wendy repeats closing her eyes and looking away, making Carla sigh in defeat.

"This Cait Shelter...sent her?" Kouta quietly questions, he didn't want to sound mean to the little girl but still with the situation they were about to get into…

Shotaro sighed as he closed his eyes putting his right hand to his hip and his left hand to the side of his fedora "What was this guild master thinking?" he quietly questions as well.

Erza approaches Wendy with a friendly smile on her face "I apologize. I was a bit taken aback at first, but it wasn't my intention. I'm glad to have you with us, Wendy." Erza says as Wendy looks up at her while crouched on the ground with her hands on her knees, Carla looking at her with her paws to her hips.

Wendy seemed to recognize who Erza was as she let out a gasp of awe, putting her hands to her cheeks as she blushed a little and smiled "It's Erza-san! It's really her, Carla!" Wendy excitedly says.

"She's a better woman than I thought she'd be." Carla neutrally says.

"Hey. Have of you heard of me?" Happy asks suddenly appearing beside Carla with his right paw raised "I'm Happy, the Necomander!"

Carla grunts in disapproval while turning away, closing her eyes and crossing her arms. Hearts shoot out from Happy's eyes as he takes this a rather...different way.

"She's all nervous! How cute!" Happy says to himself while backing away with his paws on either side of his mouth.

Hearts were flying from him as Lucy looked at this from behind him, closing her eyes and raising her left hand upward "Looks more like she blew you off, but whatever." she says.

Happy turns around "You're useless Lucy. You can't understand a woman's heart." he says.

Lucy's arms droop down to her sides as she turns away slightly and her body turns a shade of gray and black with blue lines traveling out from the right side of her body, her eyes went blank and narrowed "I do happen to be a woman though but whatever." she says.

Gentaro is the next to walk up to Wendy as he crouches down to her as he rests his arms on his knees "Nice to meet you, Wendy! I'm Gentaro Kisaragi, I look forward to fighting alongside you!" Gentaro says in his usual enthusiastic tone.

Wendy looked at Gentaro with awe in her eyes "And don't you worry, any of those big ugly Oracion Seis members come attacking, big brother Gentaro will be there to look out for you!" Gentaro says pounding his chest a few times before throwing his fist forward.

"And who says Wendy will need you to look after her, weird hair boy?" Carla questions.

"Carla!" Wendy says not liking that Carla was sounding a bit rude.

"Weird hair boy?" Gentaro says a bit confused by the name.

"That girl is going to grow into a real babe." Ren casually says.

"I think she's plenty cute already." Eve says.

Hibiki was suddenly behind Wendy with his right hand on her back and his left hand gesturing forward "Come this way little miss." he says with his eyes closed.

"U-Um…" Wendy nervously says.

"Jumping the gun?!" Lucy cries out in shock with bulging eyes and sweat flying from her face.

"Are they really doing this again?" Shotaro questions in an annoyed tone with his eyes closed.

Ichiya walked in front of Jura as the two looked at Wendy, though the looks on their face were far more serious for some reason "How could I describe this girl's parfum? It's not something you smell every day." Ichiya questions.

"Have you noticed, Ichiya-dono? Her magical power is something different than ours. It looks like Erza-dono has also noticed." Jura says, looking over to see Erza was also looking over at Wendy with a serious expression on her face.

"Impressive as usual." Ichiya says.

Eiji walks up to Kouta's side upon overhearing the two's conversation "Kouta?" he says.

"Yeah, I can sense it too. She may not look like it, but the power I'm sensing from her is very strong. There may be more to this little girl than meets the eye." Kouta says also getting very serious as he said this.

"Um…" Wendy says as she now sat at one of the couches that the Trimens had brought back out, a table in front which Carla stood on as Eve and Ren sat on either side of Wendy.

"Would you like some orange juice?" Eve asks as he sets a glass of it down on the table.

"Seriously, you're just too cute." Ren says.

"Please, have a hot towel." Hibiki says sliding in front of the table while holding a hot towel out for Wendy who at this point was getting nervous once again.

"Um… Uh…" Wendy whimpers as sweat flies from the top of her head.

"What is with these men?" Carla questions.

Wendy was whimpering once more as sweat flew out from the sides of her head.

"As if she wasn't nervous enough now she has those three morons all over her." Shotaro comments.

"They really are persistent I'll give them that. Even if they are taking things a tad too far." Haruto says with his eyes closed.

Natsu hummed in confusion with his arms crossed as he looked over at Wendy "Huh? What's the matter Natsu?" Gray asks noticing this.

"Wendy… I know I've heard that name before, I think." Natsu says.

"Huh?" Gray says as Natsu closes his eyes and continues trying to think harder and harder about it "You know the girl?" Gray asks.

Natsu turns to him "Can you remember for me?" he asks while pointing at her.

"Hell no!" Gray shouts out a bit shocked by such a question as his eyes went blank and widened.

Natsu turned back forward and looked over at Wendy while Gray let out a sigh of annoyance. As the three Trimen continued speaking to her, Wendy seemed to ignore them as she opened her eyes upon taking notice of Natsu. For some reason a look of relief came to her face as she then closed her eyes and smiled at Natsu while tilting her head a little to the side with a quiet giggle. Natsu didn't know what to make of this.

So he turned his head to look back at Gray "So, who was it again?" he asks.

"Give me a break here." Gray says with beady eyes and purple lines under his right eye.

"You shouldn't go smiling to random guys like that." Carla says to Wendy.

"T-That's not what I was-" Wendy tries to explain as embarrassed sweat flies from her head while she was also blushing a little.

"What kind of guys do you like?" Hibiki asks while leaning a bit closer to her.

"Won't you have some cake?" Eve asks.

"I mean seriously, you're too damn cute." Ren says.

Nervous sweat poured down the back of Wendy's head like crazy due to all the questions, and how close the Trimens were getting to her.

"I said we didn't come here to play around!" Ichiya stated appearing a few feet behind Hibiki "Clean this up at once!" he ordered while standing on his right foot striking a pose with sparkles shining around him.

"Right away master!" the three shout as in a split second they have all the items gathered up and carried away rapidly leaving Wendy and Carla standing around, Wendy with a confused look as to what just happened.

"Me~n." Ichiya says striking another pose.

"They changed what they called him again…" Lucy says.

"You almost have to admire their inconsistency…" Gray says.

"Or they're just idiots…" Kouta says.

A group of spotlights turned on, shining onto Ichiya from below him. Ichiya was now standing on a small square stage with a spotlight on each corner "Now then! As it seems we are all here, I will go ahead and explain the plan." Ichiya says while striking another pose.

"Is that pose of yours really necessary?" Lucy asks.

"Forget that, what's with the small stage complete with spotlights?" Kouta questions.

It was now time to get to the point of why they were all here as everyone gathered close together in front of Ichiya to hear what the plan of attack was to deal with the Dark Guild.

"I will start with the place where the Six Wizard Generals, Oracion Seis, are gathering…" Ichiya says.

All the while Happy's attention was still stuck on Carla as a lone heart hovered up from his head. Everything went silent as everyone stared at Ichiya waiting for him to continue.

"But first I will inspect the bathroom's parfum." Ichiya says as he begins hopping from foot to foot while making his way towards the bathroom.

"Hey, don't go smelling up the toilet!" Gray says in an annoyed tone as behind him Hibiki, Eve, and Ren clap away for some reason.

"Excellent sensei!" the Trimen say in unison.

"They changed again!" Lucy says.

"All the time he had beforehand and he chooses to go now. Whose idea was it for him to be the one presenting the plan to all of us?" Shotaro questions.

"Unfortunately for us, Blue Pegasus has all the information on Oracion Seis. Their members, and where they are, so they were the ones who came up with the plan in the first place." Erza explains.

After several minutes of waiting Ichiya finally reappears as he takes his spot back on the mini stage.

"The Worth Woodsea spreads out from here to the north. Ancient people sealed an extremely powerful magic spell inside the woodsea. Its name is, Nirvana!" Ichiya begins explaining as he points at everyone with a sparkles flies out from his forehead.

"Look, we really don't need the posing." Gray says with beady eyes.

"I've given up at this point and just accepted how annoying they're going to be." Shotaro says also with beady eyes.

"Nirvana?" Natsu and Lucy question at the same time.

The Riders exchanged concerned looks with one another.

"I have never heard of it." Lyon says.

"What about you Jura-san?" Sherry asks looking at him.

"No, I know not of it." Jura answers.

"Have you heard of Nirvana? And do you want a fish?" Happy casually asks with his eyes closed as he walks over to Carla with a fish in his paws, a red bow tie on the tail.

"No thank you." Carla says turning her head away from him.

"It's destruction magic is powerful enough for the ancients to have wanted it sealed away. That's basically all we know." Ren speaks up.

"Other than that we don't truly know what kind of magic it is." Eve says.

"Destruction magic?" Natsu questions.

"I don't like the sound of that." Lucy says.

"Anything with the word destruction in it should sound bad. Especially if it gets into the wrong hands." Kouta says.

"The reason that Oracion Seis has gathered in the woodsea must be to get their hands on Nirvana." Hibiki says.

"And in order for us to stop them…" Ichiya says as he opens his eyes.

"We will attack Oracion Seis!" the four Trimens announce simultaneously while striking different poses with sparkles flashing around them.

"And there they go posing again…" Lucy says with her eyes closed and blue lines going down the right side of her face as she, Gray, and Haruto are turned away from them.

"Shotaro's right I'm not even going to say anything anymore." Gray says.

"They really don't care what other people think." Haruto says with his eyes closed and a sweatdrop on the left side of his head.

"We have 18 on our side. They have 6." Ren says.

"But we can't underestimate them." Eve says.

"Those six are all incredibly powerful." Hibiki says with his left hand in his pocket.

Hibiki raises his right hand and snaps his fingers, suddenly two golden holographic-like flat-screens in circular shapes appear beside him, one facing upwards like a screen while another was sloping downwards at an angle with what appeared to be buttons spread throughout it. Like the lower screen was a keyboard to a computer, Hibiki starts rapidly typing away.

"Archive? That's a rare magic." Jura says.

This type of magic piqued Shotaro and Philip's interest just a little bit.

"I've never seen it before." Sherry says.

Just then six more screens appeared before everyone, all of them with different figures being shown.

"These are images of them we finally obtained recently." Hibiki says.

"The wizard who uses poisonous snakes, Cobra." Hibiki says drawing everyone's attention to a man with maroon hair, a large, violet scaled snake around him.

"Ooh, he looks like a real bad guy! Look at those slanted eyes!" Natsu says with an annoyed look on his face as he appears in a green, circular speech balloon in the upper right corner.

"You're eyes are the same!" Gray and Lyon both point out appearing in a dark blue, and yellow speech balloons off to the left.

"Thought to use speed magic, like his name implies, Racer."

The next image showed a very tall, and long faced man with blond and black hair standing amongst the flaming ruins of what appeared to be some sort of town. The blonde, central part of his hair was styled in a long, spiky Mohawk with the black portion being very close-shaven, he possessed similarly blond, extremely long eyebrows jutting outwards, a long, hooked and prominent nose, and a reduced glasgow smile. It appeared he had on a reinforced chin guard which is covered in small, rectangular holes on the edges, as the chin guard extended upwards to his green-tinted sunglasses. If his name was anything to go by his outfit was also very racer like as he had on a red and white racing suit, the jacket which is predominately red in color with white parts on top of the shoulders and on the sleeves. On his back was the black stamp of Oracion Seis. He also had white pants held up by a belt, and white gloves with red fingers.

"Oh~. I think this is a case of hate at first sight." Gray says putting his hands to his hips.

"I agree." Lyon says with his arms crossed.

"If he thinks he's fast he's got another thing coming. Especially since we have some fast fighters of our own." Shotaro says looking over at Eiji, Haruto, and Kouta due to the three of them having forms where speed was one of their main strengths or an ability of theirs in that form.

"He's a wizard that can wipe out an entire military unit, and will if there's profit in it. Hoteye of the Heavenly Eye!"

The next image was of a large, tall, and imposing man standing in the middle of defeated Fiore soldiers in some wooded area. The man had a rather peculiar appearance as he looked a little feminine, which wasn't the strangest part as that went to the fact that his whole body seemed to consist of geometrical forms with sharp angles, not possessing any rounded parts.

"Who or what in the hell is that and why does he almost remind me of a certain blockhead for some reason?" Shotaro questions himself.

This Hoteye had long, wavy and flowing orange hair which reached down below his shoulders, bright blue eyes with long eyelashes, a prominent flat nose, and full red feminine lips. His large forehead tops his eyes directly due to the seeming lack of eyebrows, and his massive torso and arms looked even more massive if compared to his head which was relatively small in comparison, and to his thin legs. As for his clothing he wore a loose black shirt with light sleeves adorned by a series of dark merged rhombuses, a large white collar closed on the front going down to cover his shoulders and a sash tied around his waist, and simple dark red pants tucked inside light boots with what looked like white leg warmers circling his calves. Around his neck was a large necklace made of brown beads with a pendant hanging from it, this taking the shape of an eye flanked by two small, wing-like protrusions. He was also carrying a book in his right hand.

"For profit?" Sherry questions with an angered look in her eyes.

"Despicable." Jura says sharing the same look of anger in his eyes.

"Taking someone's life away just because there's profit in it for them. How can any human being do such a thing for something as low as that?" Eiji questions.

"The woman said to peer into your heart, Angel."

The next Oracion Seis member was a young woman of relatively small stature with pale skin, brown eyes, and short silvery hair with bangs covering her forehead. As her name suggested her attire was very much evocative of the conventional image of an angel as she wore a short dress made up of white feathers with two feathery wings that hang from her back. The dress splits just above her navel and reveals much of her cleavage making her dress much more of a vest; the deep, revealing v-cut is lined by a row of long feathers on either side thus continuing up her torso and wrapping around her shoulders to form a sort of collar. Two wing-like tattoos could be seen on her collarbone, and her skirt is also partially split down the middle; Angel also had a dark blue ribbon around her head with four bows hanging from it, two on each side that cover her ears. Her hair was cut in a short bob with two tresses reaching over her ribbon to frame her face, a piece of her hair at the top curls into a halo that rises from her head; and she also had long, dark blue gloves that covered her arms past her elbows and knee-length, dark blue stockings with light blue, feathered boots.

"I think I might be naturally weak against someone like that." Lucy says to herself in a slightly worried tone as she appears in a pink speech balloon.

"First Racer, and now Angel? What's with these guys and literally wearing clothing that represents who they are?" Kouta questions.

"Really? I thought she was trying to look like a swan more than an angel." Gentaro says.

"Now that you mention it, I can sort of see that." Haruto says.

"Meanwhile you guys are just talking casually over here about her outfit instead of worrying about how dangerous she might be." Lucy says off from the side as she looks at them with blue lines on the back right of her head.

"We don't have much information about this guy, but he's called Midnight."

The next image was of a young man sitting on a floating carpet with his head down as he appeared to be sleeping.

"Midnight? That name doesn't bode well." Erza says.

"Is he sleeping?" Kouta asks.

"Maybe he only wakes up at midnight as his name suggests?" Eiji wonders while scratching the left side of his head.

"Then the control center for them all. Brain."

The final man identified as the leader of Oracion Seis, Brain, was a slightly tall and muscular man with neat silver hair that reached to his shoulders with dark eyes and dark skin. He had some strange markings on his face that took the shape of straight black lines as two went around his neck, two reached from the sides of his cheeks down to his neck, and two were connected over his nose as they went upwards above his eyes to the top of his forehead, there were also two small lines on his chin. His clothing consisted of a large opened white coat with a large yellow and two small dark blue stripes, a dark blue stripe on either side of the yellow stripe, going around behind his back from one upper part of the arm to the other, a large dark furred collar that went around his neck and reached all the way down to his waist, dark blue pants with a single light blue arrow pointing downwards on either leg, and some white fur wrapped around either leg. The large mark of Oracion Seis was on his chest, and his markings could also be seen on his arms. In his hand was a rather strange looking staff with a skull at the top containing what looked like a lacrima in its mouth.

"Each of them holds magical power great enough to destroy an entire guild. That's why we'll use our numbers to our advantage." Hibiki finishes explaining as the screens of the Oracion Seis members disappear.

"There's a saying I don't know if anyone else here has heard about. About how numbers don't win a fight. Well let's hope this time they do, otherwise if we can't stop them than no one will." Shotaro says.

"We have them outnumbered, but will that be enough? If their powers are as dangerous as you say. Even the numbers we have may indeed not be enough to bring them down." Erza says.

"Especially if they fight together. If they can do a lot of damage by themselves, imagine what they could do when together." Eiji says.

"We'll just have to overwhelm them with both numbers and power! If we can work together there's no way they can defeat us!" Gentaro enthusiastically states while clenching his right hand into a fist.

"Um, I think it might be best if you didn't count me…" Lucy says as she raises her left hand while trembling in fear with her eyes closed and blue lines above her right eye.

"I'm also not very good at fighting!" Wendy speaks up also in a terrified state with her hands balled up in front of her mouth as she has her eyes closed with blue lines going down her right eye.

"Wendy! Stop being so weak!" Carla says in a slightly annoyed tone.

"Hey what should we do?" Carla turns to look at Happy "They aren't counting us!" Happy says still in his loving trance with hearts above his head and the fish in his arms.

Carla turns away with an "Hmph!"

"Do not worry! Our plan does not simply involve fighting. All we have to do is find their base of operations." Ichiya says striking another pose with sparkles flashing around him as he catches everyone's attention.

"Their base?" Natsu asks.

"Do you mean their guild? Or do they have a place set up somewhere in the woodsea while they're searching for this magic?" Kouta asks.

"Ah yes. We haven't mentioned it yet." Ren speaks up as Hibiki types away at his keyboard screen.

"We conjecture that they have a temporary base somewhere in the woodsea." Eve explains as another screen appears showing an overhead view of this Worth Woodsea area.

"If it's possible, I'd want us to get them all into their base." Ichiya says before sliding out of view down to the right.

"But how?" Gray asks.

"By whacking them duh!" Natsu shouts with his eyes going blank and his teeth grow and sharpen into a rectangular shape.

"So that means fighting of course." Lucy says turning entirely grey as purple lines travel down her blank and narrowed eyes and blue lines protrude out from the left side of her body while Gray's eyes turn beady as he stares at Natsu a tad annoyed by his fighting is the key to everything answer.

"But what will we do when they're all there?" Erza asks with her right hand to her chin as Lucy turns her head to look at her.

Ichiya's right hand suddenly shoots upwards with his index and right thumb held up as it appeared that he was pointing to something. The two follow this as they look up to notice the large skylight above them, just as a massive object appears in view high above the mansion "We will use our guild's pride and joy, Christina, the Pegasus. And together with it, we will wipe the base off the face of the planet!" Ichiya declares.

"Huh?!" Kouta cries out in complete shock with widened eyes.

"What is that thing?!" Gentaro shouts also with widened eyes of shock.

"That would be our Magic Bomber airship, Christina." Hibiki explains.

"Magic Bomber?" Haruto questions.

"An airship?" Eiji questions.

"Seriously, these guys have access to something as cool as that?" Shotaro says.

"Very interesting." Philip says.

This airship appeared to be almost completely composed of metal that was painted white, with various light blue, yellow, and dark purple parts all over and with its similarity to the mythological being was very distinguishable as the entire structure was closely modeled after the Pegasus. Its fore was shaped like an equine head, placed on top of a "neck" it was adorned with a dark purple stripe circling it in its center, complete with a pair of similarly colored round eyes, a light blue mane consisting of many elongated, oval plates, and a pair of golden curved, protruding ear-like ornaments. Its seeming landing gear consisted of four, separate parts, complete with several, semicircular decorations on their edges and ending in a series of propulsors; such "limbs" protruded from the ship's hull in a way that made them resemble Pegasus' legs.

At Christina's sides were a pair of massive, flat wings, each consisting of five elongated plates being placed one near the other mirroring feathers with the ones on the front being the largest, and the following ones getting smaller and smaller. Each of the "feathers" was adorned in the part nearer to the ship itself by a series of motifs, ending in a semicircle complete with a dark rhomboidal figure in the most outer part, and secured to the hull by a flat part which also kept it joined to the others and held up Christina's "limbs;" several cannons secured to hemispherical supports sprouted from it.

Finally there was the hull which possessed a flat bottom with a large, round part in its center covered by four cannons, and a stern which protruded backwards in its highest part where it was also decorated by a pair of wings similar to the ones allowing the airship to fly, but smaller, pointing backwards. Below each of the wings were six thin, elongated cannons jutting outwards, divided in two series of three cannons each. A series of large propulsors were visible below the protruding part of the stern. On the back part of its summit was a part protruding upwards, topped by a pair of dark flags bearing Blue Pegasus' light symbols on them.

Lyon and Sherry couldn't help but gasp in shock at the sight of this weapon.

"We'd use that kind of thing against people?" Lucy worriedly questions with blank, widened eyes.

"That's just how powerful they are!" Jura states still in his very serious tone.

"R-Right!" Lucy says taken aback by how serious he was about this.

"Are you ready? If we get into battle, do not fight alone under any circumstances! Make sure to have at least three of us for every one of them we face!" Jura states as everyone gathers around him with Lucy, Wendy, and Carla off to the side behind to his left.

"Right." everyone says in agreement as they nod their head.

Lucy and Wendy were both now crying and trembling in absolute terror with their eyes closed "This is so dangerous!" Lucy cries.

"This is a problem!" Wendy cries in agreement.

"Please stop sounding so pitiful!" Carla says in a slightly angered and annoyed tone.

Natsu slams a fire coated fist into his left hand "Okay! I'm all fired up!" he eagerly states.

Suddenly there is a large explosion at the front door, as Natsu goes charging out "I'll take all six of 'em on at once!" Natsu cries out as he speeds off and away from everyone else, completely ignoring everything that had just been said.

"Wait! Natsu!" Lucy yells out as she tries chasing after him but is too late as he is already far ahead making her stop.

"Honestly, I can't believe him." Erza says as she, Gray, and the Riders have all caught up with Lucy.

"I know he's impatient but seriously…" Lucy says.

"I don't think he even listened to the plan." Gray says acting as if he was not even surprised by the whole thing.

"Because he is Natsu!" Happy proclaims with his right paw raised.

"The only thing that got to his head was fighting them, everything else just went out the other ear." Shotaro says in a slightly annoyed tone with his left hand behind his head and his eyes closed.

"We practically went over how powerful and dangerous these guys are and he's shouting that he's going to take all of them down?" Eiji questions actually a bit worried for him.

"That's Natsu for you." Gentaro says with an embarrassed smirk on his lips.

"Probably shouldn't have expected any less from him." Haruto says.

"No, not really." Kouta says in agreement.

Everyone minus Jura, and Ichiya were now standing outside after having watched Natsu run off like the battle-hungry moron he was.

"Come on now…" Ren says with his right eye closed as he rubs the left side of his head.

"How awful…" Eve says.

"At least open the door!" Hibiki complains as he closes his eyes with his arms dropping lower to his side.

Erza turns to look at the others "We have no choice. Let's go!"

"Man that idiot!" Gray says in an annoyed tone.

Lucy whose eyes are already tearing up goes into full on crying mode, closing her eyes as tears stream down her face with some even flying around her. With this Erza, and Gray take off after Natsu "Hurry!" Erza shouts.

"Right!" Gray shouts in agreement as he and Lucy are not far behind her, Lucy still crying away as she follows.

Shotaro sighs in defeat as he grabs the top of his fedora and tilts his head back while closing his eyes "Why is it so hard to stick to a plan? We work together, we beat these guys, we blow them up, days done and over. But nope let's risk getting split off from each other so these guys can pick us off one by one."

"Ah~ come on Shotaro, nothing like have a little fun while on a mission. It makes things interesting." Gentaro casually states putting both of his hands behind his head.

"As idiotic as Natsu is, I'm sure just like the other times he'll get serious when he needs to. And when that happens followed by us getting serious as well. This Oracion Seis isn't going to stand a chance!" Kouta says as he takes off into a sprint "Now let's go!" he shouts.

"Right!" Gentaro shouts in agreement as he follows after him with Eiji, and Haruto trailing a few feet behind.

"You really going to let them run ahead of you, partner?" Philip asks with a hint of humor in his voice.

"Huh?" Shotaro says confused by this as he looks at him. Only to look forward as his eyes widen upon realization to what's happening "Hey!" he shouts as he starts running after them.

"We can't let Fairy Tail get all the good bits." Lyon says as he and Sherry watch the Fairy Tail team run off, behind them Jura only begins to now exit the mansion just as Lyon dashes off "Let's go, Sherry!"

"Right!" Sherry shouts as she runs after him.

"Lyon! Sherry!" Jura yells after them but is too late.

"We're going too!" Ren says as the three of the four Trimens are already off as well.

"Yeah!" Eve says in agreement.

"Angel, huh?" Hibiki says to himself with a tone of intrigue.

Wendy watches them all running off while scared herself to follow after as she trembles in place with sweat flying from her head.

"Come on, hang in there!" Carla calls to her.

"Don't worry!" Happy calls out suddenly appearing a few feet behind them with his paws to his hips.

"I'm with you!" Happy proudly proclaims while raising his left paw into a fist trying to act tough.

Which doesn't work as Carla is already running while pulling Wendy along behind her by her left hand "Wendy, let's go." Carla says as Wendy whimpers out in surprise by this with sweat still flying from her head.

Thus leaving Happy all by himself as he just stands in place completely shocked by what just happened, everything completely silent around him.

"WHY?! Don't leave me behind!" Happy cries out as he spreads his wings and flies after everyone, now leaving Jura behind just as Ichiya exits from the mansion behind him.

"My, my." Jura says.

"Men…" Ichiya says.

"Well, it looks like the operation has started. We should also get going." Jura says while still looking off into the distance of the direction everyone ran toward.

Unbeknownst to Jura, behind him Ichiya stares at him as a aura of darkness irradiates out from him, his eyes glowing in the darkness as a sinister smile is on his lips "Before that, Jura-san. I have a question for you." Ichiya says.

In the nearby trees, a shadowy, female figure hides behind one of them with her arms crossed. She quietly giggles as a sinister grin comes to her lips.

Natsu runs over a small rise on the rocky path as something catches his attention ahead of him "I can see the woodsea!"

"Wait Natsu!" Gray yells as he, along with Erza, Shotaro, Eiji, Gentaro, Haruto, and Kouta, have all caught up behind him.

"Not a chance!" Natsu says with a toothy grin while chuckling lightly.

"Are you really that brain dead? Did you listen to anything Jura even said about how dangerous these guys are or what the plan is supposed to be?!" Shotaro calls out.

"Yeah well that plan is boring so I'm going with my plan which is to beat them all up and show them how powerful I am!" Natsu says.

"Fool! Don't go running off ahead of us!" Erza scolds.

"What? Can't stand the thought of me taking the lead?" Natsu asks while turning his head slightly to look back at her.

"What?!" Erza says angered by the comment as her eyes go blank and widened.

"How dare you, you little~!" Erza angrily yells out causing Natsu to transform into a chibi out of complete terror as he jumps into the air with his eyes going blank and widened while still rapidly running his feet forward as sweat flies from his head.

Which unfortunately causes him to fail in taking notice of the drop off right in front of him as he flies right over the edge, the look on his face one of realization as to what just happened as he no longer feels the ground beneath him. Blinking his eyes a few times, Natsu goes screaming down into the forest below while flailing his arms about with sweat flying from his head, disappearing into the trees with a twinkling star.

"Ah, you made him fall." Kouta says as the group look down the cliff while Lyon and Sherry arrive beside them.

"Damn, look at that fall." Gray says with his right hand on his head.

"Hasty idiot." Erza says with her arms crossed.

"He has a hard head I'm sure he'll be fine." Shotaro says with his hands in his vest pockets not the least bit worried about the Fire Dragon Slayer.

"He has taken worse so I doubt a fall even from this height would be able to kill him." Haruto says with his hands in the pockets of his jacket.

"He hasn't changed much has he?" Sherry asks.

"When I think that I once fought with him it's really quite complicated." Lyon says with a small bead of sweat on the side of his face.

"That's love, yet again!" Sherry says as she looks at Lyon with a heart shooting out from the right side of her head with the word love written inside.

"No, not really." Eiji and Gentaro say with their eyes closed and sweatdrops on the left sides of their heads.

Lucy cries out as tears shoot out from her eyes "Wait! You all run too fast!" she complains while still running to try and keep up with them "Whatever happened to ladies first?"

"Should I give you a princess carry?" Hibiki asks appearing with sparkles floating around behind him.

"I'll hold your hand!" Eve says appearing next to him.

"Stay by my side." Ren says though in a rather embarrassed manner as he looks away with some blush on his cheeks.

"Shut up!" Lucy angrily and annoyingly yells at them.

As Lucy is running she suddenly takes notice of the Xtreme Gaia Memory Bird appearing beside her on her left "I'm not as physically fit as Shotaro is, lucky for me I have the Gaia Bird Xtreme Memory to carry me around if need be." the voice of Philip speaks out from it before flying ahead of her.

"Huh? Wait! Is there room for me in there?!" Lucy cries out but is ignored.

"Wendy stop dilly-dallying!" Carla says while still pulling Wendy along.

"But!" Wendy cries out.

"I'm doing my best too!" Happy yells out several feet behind the two.

Somewhere down in the forest Natsu is alright for the most part, but just because he can survive a long fall like that doesn't mean it won't hurt a lot. As evident by the large red bump on the left side of his head as he groans in pain "Ow~..."

"Anyway, this place smells weird." Natsu says.

The others who have somehow managed to catch up to him are just a few feet behind "Have you noticed?" Erza asks.

"Yeah. I don't really get it, but there's something odd in the air." Gray answers.

"No kidding, even we're noticing it too." Shotaro says as even though he and the other Riders didn't have magic, or in Kouta's case space god powers, they too could just feel that there was something amiss in this woods.

"Don't let your guard down, Sherry!" Lyon warns her.

"Right!" Sherry says in agreement.

The group finally emerged from the woods into an open rocky field "What took you so long people?" Natsu humorously calls back.

"Shotaro was right. You must have a durable body to go along with that thick skull of yours." Gray says.

"Told you!" Shotaro says.

Just then a large shadow falls over the group making everyone look up, Natsu stops in his tracks, which causes Gray and Kouta to collide into him from behind knocking the three of them to the ground.

"What the hell are you doing?" Natsu questions in a highly angered and annoyed tone as he and Gray butt heads, both figuratively and literally as the two slam their foreheads against one another while getting up.

"Don't just stop like that!" Gray retorts also angered and annoyed by this.

Kouta sits up on his knees while holding his head with a small bump on it "It probably wasn't the smartest thing for all of us to look up while still running in case one of us did stop like Natsu did." he points out.

"Look!" Erza says as she casually pushes both Natsu and Gray's faces apart cracking their necks as they grunt out in pain.

"Lyon-sama." Sherry says.

"Yes…" Lyon says.

Flying right over them was Blue Pegasus' magic weapon airship "The magical bomber, Christina!" Erza says.

"Whoa~!" Natsu says in awe at the sight of it.

"That's the Pegasus we heard about?" Lyon questions.

"It sure does look impressive a lot more closer." Shotaro says with his right hand on his fedora.

"So Phantom Lord had a giant robot as their base, and Blue Pegasus has an awesome looking airship. Why can't we get something like that for Fairy Tail?" Gentaro questions.

Lucy, Wendy, Carla, and Happy also come to a stop as they look up with Wendy letting out a breath of awe "Wow…" Lucy says.

"It sure is big." Happy says.

"That gives me some hope." Carla says.

"Okay! Let's split up and search for their base." Erza says.

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Natsu asks.

"You're useless." Gray says.

"You really don't listen to anything other than what's in that head of yours." Shotaro comments.

Suddenly an explosion erupts from the right side of the airship. Lucy gasps in shock as everyone's mouths drop open "What happened to Christina?!" Hibiki shouts.

More explosions begin going off one by one causing more destruction to the ship as pieces of debris are sent flying and pillars of smoke begin to emit from the holes.

"Oh no…" Wendy says in horror with her hands over her mouth.

The airship begins losing altitude as it dips forward and begins descending rapidly towards the ground, soon disappearing over the ridge as a few seconds later a massive explosion erupts from the forest. Everyone looks on in complete shock and horror as to what just happened, completely speechless.

"What happened?" Lyon manages to ask.

"Those explosions. They came from inside the ship itself!" Shotaro says as Philip appears beside him from the Gaia Bird.

"It was sabotaged?" Kouta questions.

The fiery pillar of smoke continues to rise from the woodsea in front of them. Just then, something seems to catch Natsu's attention as he smells the air a few times.

"Hey." he says getting serious.

"Yeah. Somebody's coming! Watch out!" Gray shouts causing everyone to tense up and ready themselves for battle.

Wendy however gets behind a large rock as she whimpers in fright "Wendy!" Carla says noticing this as she didn't like it.

In the smoke, six shadowy figures appeared "We got incoming!" Shotaro says as he and the other Riders stand ready.

The six figures begin to exit from the smoke, soon revealing themselves one by one as the smoke also begins to dissipate. The sight of the people before them causes everyone to tense up even more "They're…" Lucy begins to speak.

The figures exit the smoke and come to a stop "Oracion Seis!" Lucy nearly shouts.

From right to left it was Racer, Cobra with his giant snake wrapped around him, Brain wielding his staff, Angel, Midnight who was fast asleep, and Hoteye.

For some strange reason, Angel had two small blue creatures floating on either side of her head, they were humanoid in appearance with two antennae sticking out from the top of their heads. They had small, black beady eyes with white pupils, and both wore shorts as one wore orange shorts while the other had black ones; the shape of the mouths were also odd in that the creature with orange shorts had a downward "arrow" like mouth, while the other's mouth was like an upward pointing "arrow". The one in orange shorts had a sash running from their right shoulder to the left side of their waist, while the other's sash was from the left shoulder to the right side of the waist. The two creatures appeared to be dancing as they swung their little arms up and down repeatedly one by one.

"Hmph, the maggots have swarmed." Brain speaks.

"We saw through your plans." Angel says with a wink from her left eye while raising her right hand up and pointing up with her index finger.

"We already got Jura and Ichiya!" one of the blue creatures spoke as they two continued to dance but now in a different way with their arms held outwards while also kicking their small legs back and forth one by one.

"How do you like that?" the other blue creature spoke, though it was a bit hard to tell which of the two was speaking as their mouths did not move, only that their voices were different as one sounded like a little boy while the other sounded like a little girl.

"What?!" Lyon says in complete shock with beads of sweat running down his face.

"Impossible!" Hibiki says also shocked to be hearing this.

"Guess that would explain why they haven't caught up with us." Shotaro says already not liking the situation they were in.

"You're trembling, I can hear it." Cobra says with a toothy grin on his face.

"I think you need your ears checked pal 'cause we ain't scared of you!" Kouta says as Gentaro hums while turning slightly to his left. To see Lucy trembling quite a bit with widened, blank eyes.

"Well...some of us aren't…" Gentaro says with a sweatdrop on the back of his head.

"We should hurry up with our work. But you are getting in our way." Racer says while pointing at the Alliance.

"Money makes people stronger, yes! Let me tell you something nice." Hoteye begins to speak "Money is everything in this world, and-"

"Shut up Hoteye!" Cobra and Racer simultaneously say in slightly annoyed tones appearing in a purple, and green speech balloon on either side of his face.

Midnight meanwhile...continued snoring away as he was still asleep.

"I think one of them is asleep…" Lucy says with some small sweatdrops, and blue lines on the back of her head.

"Maybe Eiji wasn't wrong about his name being related to when he does actually wake up?" Haruto questions also with small sweatdrops and blue lines on the back of his head.

"I didn't expect them to show themselves to us." Erza says.

Everything goes quiet as a gust of wind blows the charred remains of Christina, and trees through the air behind the Oracion Seis members with the two groups having a silent standoff.

Natsu cracks the bones of his left knuckle "Hey." he says with an eager look on his face.

"Yeah." Gray says in agreement also with a look on his face saying he was ready to take these guys on.

Cobra bares his teeth with a grin "I can hear you." he quietly says to himself.

"Now we don't have to go find you!" Natsu and Gray shout at the same time as they rapidly launch themselves forward into a sprint towards Oracion Seis.

"Do it." Brain calmly says.

"Okay." Racer casually responds as he suddenly disappears in the blink of an eye.

Racer begins appearing and disappearing in different spots while heading towards Natsu and Gray. Suddenly appearing right behind them upside down as Natsu and Gray both notice and gasp in shock the lower half of his body begins falling towards them.

"Motor!" Racer yells delivering a spinning air kick sending both Natsu and Gray flying.

"Natsu! Gray!" Lucy...s? Both cry out in terror.

Only then does Lucy notice this as both her, and her mysterious doppelganger turn and look at each other with confused expressions. Until the fake Lucy brings out her whip and begins smacking Lucy with it "Idiot!" she says with a hint of sadistic humor in her tone.

"What the?! Why am I-?!" Lucy cries out in shock and confusion while also crying out in pain from being whipped multiple times. All the while Angel watches this with a smile coming to her lips as she giggles.

"Sherry!" Lyon shouts as he and Sherry begin charging Hoteye.

"Right!" Sherry shouts in agreement.

Hoteye lets out a pleasured moan as he closes his eyes and puts his left hand index and middle fingers beneath them, opening them up as his pupils begin glowing in an orange light "I saw that, yes!"

As Lyon and Sherry close the distance toward him, both of their feet suddenly sink into the ground which has become liquefied "Even without love, as long as you have money, yes!" Hoteye yells with his left hand now held forward as he is surrounded by a faint orange aura.

The liquefied ground begins to rise up into two separate waves enclosing Lyon and Sherry within "What is this? The ground is!" Lyon questions in shock as he then tries to free himself from it.

"Love is more important!" Sherry instead yells out while upside down as her eyes and widened and blank from Hoteye's statement.

The two begin to sink into the liquefied ground as Sherry reaches out and cries "Lyon-sama~!"

"I'll take Angel!" Hibiki states as he, Ren, and Eve all start running towards her.

"No fair!" Eve shouts in an annoyed tone.

"I'll take the brains!" Ren says.

However they fail to take notice of Racer as he speeds his way toward them, appearing in one spot before disappearing and reappearing a few feet ahead in another spot. In a flash Racer reappears and delivers a powerful kick to Ren's back before disappearing again.

"Ren!" Eve yells out, only for Racer to appear beside him as he throws a roundhouse kick into Eve sending him flying back as he cries out in pain with Racer disappearing again.

"Eve! Ren!" Hibiki yells as he stops to turn around noticing what happened to his friends.

Racer reappears in front of him with his hands on the ground and his legs pulled forward, as he then launches his legs back and donkey kicks Hibiki before disappearing once more.

"So fast!" Hibiki shouts in his head in shock as he clenches his teeth in pain with his left eye closed and right eye barely open to see this "He's so fast, I can't see him!"

Hibiki, Eve, and Ren all hit the ground face down, defeated as Racer reappears a few feet away from them with his back to them "Fast is good." he says.

"Requip!" Erza yells as she launches herself into the air towards Cobra.

Her body enveloped in a bright golden light which doesn't frighten Cobra at all as he just stares up at her with a toothy-grin "I can hear you." he says.

"Forward, my blades!" Erza shouts in her Heaven's Wheel Armor with the sword in her right hand pointed forward.

Sending a barrage of swords flying towards Cobra, however to her complete shock Cobra barely moves at all as he simply slides his feet around just a little bit as he manages to dodge every one of her swords while still standing in the middle of them.

"What? He read and dodged that many swords?" Erza questions.

Just then Racer appears behind her, Erza notices this as she gasps in shock and quickly turns around. Just barely managing to block a kick from him with her swords.

Beaten badly from Racer's attack, Natsu manages to push himself up onto his left knee as he wipes some dirt off his mouth "Damn it." he says.

He then takes notice of Midnight who is still sleeping and snoring away even through all of this commotion.

"You! Why are you sleeping, you bastard?!" Natsu yells out angered and annoyed by this as his eyes go blank and slanted with his teeth sharpening and a blue cross-popping vein appearing on the side of his head.

"Requip!" Erza yells floating a few feet back as she holds her arms out.

"Flight Armor!" she shouts requipping into the armor that grants her immense speed.

Using this she closes the distance to Racer and begins wildly swinging her swords at him as she actually manages to keep up with his speed, Racer noticing this himself as he remarks "Ooh, you're quick!"

However even than Erza cannot land a hit on him as Racer manages to dodge every one of her attacks before launching himself back away from her "Fast is good!" he says.

Cobra who is watching this grins again "But I can hear it, Titania…" he says suddenly and somehow appearing behind Erza even when in her Flight Armor as she notices this and gasps in shock and horror at how he was able to do it.

"Your next move that is!" Cobra shouts as he slams an upwards kick right into her stomach.

"I knew it, he's predicting me." Erza says in her head through the immense pain as she grits her teeth with her left eye closed and sweat pouring down her face.

Erza manages to land crouched down on her left knee a few feet back as Cobra recovers and Racer appears beside him "Predicting? No. I told you, I can hear you." Cobra states through his continuous grinning teeth. Making Erza grunt in anger as she bares her teeth.

"Wake up you bastard!" Natsu yells out as he releases a Fire Roar at the sleeping Midnight.

However his attack suddenly curves around Midnight to his left before curving back into the original path behind him causing the attack to miss him entirely. Natsu gasps in shock, and still even after that Midnight sleeps "What was that just now? My magic didn't hit?" Natsu questions.

"Stop it." Racer says appearing behind Natsu who silently gasps.

It's too late though as Racer begins to kick, and punch Natsu multiple times as he speeds around delivering these attacks to him practically from every single direction "Midnight's real scary when he wakes up." Racer just casually says ending with a powerful kick to the back of Natsu's head sending him flying forward as Natsu's eyes go blank with his mouth dropped open from the beatdown.

"Ice Make-" Gray attempts to cast when suddenly the two blue creatures from before float down and touch his hands.

Catching his attention as in a puff of smoke Gray turns to find himself looking at a copy of himself with his arms already pulled back in the same manner of his "Lance!" the fake Gray yells summoning the same attack as Gray's as the ice lances slam into Gray sending him flying as he cries out in pain.

"Ice Make!" Lyon yells.

"Doll Attack!" Sherry yells.

"Eagle!"

"Mud Doll!"

The two finish as Lyon summons a barrage of ice eagles from his magic circle while Sherry's magic circle summons a mud creature from the ground. Hoteye throws his left hand forward again with his index and middle fingers pointed forward "Money is more powerful than love, yes!" he shouts as an orange magic circle appears in front of him.

Summoning up a massive wave of the ground itself as it easily destroys Lyon and Sherry's respective attacks before falling down and slamming into them as they cry out in pain. Meanwhile Brain continues to watch from the back having yet of moving a single muscle as he smiles victoriously seeing how easy the rest of his comrades were beating back the alliance mages. A battle cry from his right makes him turn to see Erza continue to lash out at Cobra with her swords while still in her Flight Armor, even with her immense speed Cobra continued to dodge the swords with next to little effort as he threw his body around with his hands still in the pockets of his coat.

"Oh? So this is Erza Scarlet?" Brain says in an intrigued tone.

Finally Cobra brings his hands out as he stops Erza's right sword by the bottom of the hilt, and raises his left arm to stop her other sword by the guard "I can hear your movements. Your breathing. The contraction and expansion of your muscles. Your very thoughts even…" Cobra says in a sinister tone as he inches his face closer and closer to hers.

Suddenly images from Erza's childhood, specifically her time at the Tower of Heaven, flash through his mind. His eyes widen as he gasps in complete shock. He pushes himself back which Erza does as well as she holds her swords at the ready "I see. You're also…" he begins to say.

"You're open!" Erza says not letting him finish his sentence.

Erza launches herself forward, this time for sure about to land a strike on him, when suddenly the ground beneath her shoots up into her "I saw it, yes!" Hoteye says having of been the one who caused it.

Just as Racer appears in front of Erza "Cobra, what are you waiting for?!" he yells as he throws a roundhouse kick at Erza who just manages to block it as the impact still sends her flying back.

"Tch!" Cobra says as he turns to his side before turning back forward and throwing his right hand forward "Cubellios!" he yells as his giant snake launches itself forward at Erza.

Opening its mouth wide as it reveals its two massive fangs, fangs it sinks deep into Erza's right arm as Erza is unable to dodge the snake causing it to bite down on her arm. Making Erza cry out in absolute pain as she drops her swords to the ground with the snake twisting and throwing Erza to the ground as well as she hits it hard with a grunt and her eyes closed while gritting her teeth.

"Cubellios's poison doesn't take effect immediately. It lets you live for a while in pain!" Cobra states with a crazed look in his eyes.

And with that, Oracion Seis had with immense ease taking down all of the mages from the alliance as everyone, from Natsu, Gray, Erza, and Lucy, to Lyon, and Sherry, to the Trimens, all lied on the ground in defeat. The Riders however were still up having of watched the whole thing with complete shock as to what they had just witnessed.

"Guys!" Gentaro yells out.

"Not one hit on any of them." Kouta says narrowing his eyes.

"Jura wasn't messing around with how tough these guys are." Haruto says.

"We can't underestimate them, we need to go in serious from the start." Eiji says.

Shotaro turns his head towards Wendy "Wendy, stay behind that rock. Do not show yourself or try to help for any reason." he says in a very serious tone.

"B-But." Wendy whimpers.

"You can't tell her what to do! Who do you think-"

"If you didn't notice those guys just mopped the floor with everyone else like it was a walk in the park!" Shotaro says raising his voice with anger, making Carla gasp as she realized at how serious he was actually getting.

"If you don't want Wendy to get hurt, stay there, and out of sight!" Shotaro says as with this the Riders all began to walk forward.

"Oh, looks like we missed a few bugs." Angel says.

"Hmph, if their friends were anything to go by. This will be over fast. Just how I like it." Racer says.

"I can hear what you're thinking, all of you." Cobra says, as suddenly his expression changes to one of confusion as he hums.

"What is it, Cobra?" Racer asks.

"I see." Cobra says actually getting serious, but also intrigued as he smirks.

The Riders all come to a stop "I don't like that we stood back while the others fought. But it did give us the chance to see what we're truly up against." Shotaro says.

"Let's show these guys what we're made of!" Kouta shouts.

The Riders all take out their Drivers and place them on their waists "Driver, On!" Haruto's WizarDriver calls out as he scans his Driver On Ring over the Hand Author.

Shotaro and Philip raise their Gaia Memories and activate them.

"Cyclone!"

"Joker!"

Eiji places his Taka, Tora, and Batta medals into his OOO Driver as he tilts the Driver and slides his scanner across it, Gentaro flips the four switches of his Fourze Driver as it does its countdown, "3, 2, 1."

Haruto flips the position of the Hand Author as it begins its chant "Shabadoobi Touch Henshin!"

And Kouta holds up his Orange Lockseed.

"HENSHIN!" all of the Riders shout.

"Orange!"

Shotaro pushes the Cyclone Memory into his Driver followed by the Joker Memory as he pushes their slots outward "Cyclone! Joker! (Technical guitar to orchestral hit)"

"Taka, Tora, Batta: Ta-To-Ba! Tatoba, Ta-To-Ba!"

(Techno Space Music)

"Flame, Please: Hi-Hi, Hi-Hi-Hi!"

"Soiya! Orange Arms: Hanamichi on Stage!"

The Kamen Riders transform into their respective forms before Oracion Seis. This catches the Dark Wizards' attention as they all look at the Riders with intrigue, Wendy, and Carla are both in awe at the sight before them.

"Wait...those guys...are those...Kamen Riders?" Hibiki questions while still in pain as he and the others, while still in a weakened state, see the whole thing.

Lyon can't help but give a weak smile as the memories of facing off against, or seeing the Riders in action were still somewhat fresh in his mind. Gray also smiles, as does Lucy "Come on, don't have those guys take the spotlight again." Natsu complains.

"Now then…" Double/Shotaro says.

"Now, count up your sins!" Double says striking his pre-battle pose as he points at Oracion Seis.

"Hmph." Brain says not impressed.

"Let's go!" Gaim yells shouldering his Daidaimaru sword as with a battle cry all of the Riders charge forward.

"Racer." Brain calls upon once again.

"Yeah, yeah." Racer says as he once again disappears.

"Kouta! Go low!" Double/Shotaro shouts.

"Yeah!" Gaim yells in agreement.

Double performs a high reverse roundhouse kick while Gaim drops to his knees and swings both his Daidaimaru and Musou Saber low to the ground in the hopes that one of their attacks would hit him. Unfortunately Racer reappears as he dives right between their attacks before disappearing again, appearing behind Double "To slow." he says before delivering a roundhouse kick to the back of Double's head.

Gaim recovers and takes notice of this, but it's too late as Racer appears to his side and delivers a flying side kick to Gaim's side sending him flying as Racer than lands on the ground. Fourze lets out a battle cry as he launches himself toward Racer and throws a punch, Racer turns and disappears causing Fourze's attack to miss as he hits the ground. Fourze stands up only to be punched across the face by Racer before he disappears and reappears on the other side of Fourze to deliver another punch across the face sending him flying onto his side leaving only Wizard and OOO left.

"Eiji!" Wizard calls to him.

"Right!" OOO responds with a nod as he takes out his other two Yellow Core Medals.

Wizard switches the position of his Hand Author "Defend, Please!" Wizard slams his right hand on the ground as he summons a dome of fire around him and OOO. Making Racer stop just a few inches from it as he raises his arms to protect himself from the intense heat with him eventually lowering it as he looks at the two Riders inside.

OOO places the two medals into his Driver and tilts it again as he scans the medals "Lion, Tora, Cheetah: (Roar) La-Tah, La-Tah, La-Tora~Tar!"

Wizard lowers the fire dome as OOO lets out his battle roar upon transforming into his Latorartar Combo, emitting his infrared light from his helmet as all of the Oracion Seis members are forced to cover their eyes from the intense brightness. Cobra covering his ears instead for some reason as he shuts his eyes as tight as he can, while Racer begins burning up from the intense heat radiating off from the light as he eventually jumps away while crying out. The light finally dies down as does OOO's roar as he looks at Racer who recovers "Nice light show." he comments.

Racer disappears, OOO gasps as in a split second he too disappears in a blur as a few feet away the two reappear with OOO striking Racer in the chest with his claws, sending sparks flying from Racer as he flies a few feet back and rolls across the ground a couple of times before recovering onto his right knee and hands.

"You're fast. That's good." Racer says.

OOO ignores the comment as he strikes his battle pose and charges forward again in a golden blur as Racer disappears as well. Wizard gets up on his feet, when suddenly he nearly falls forward flailing his arms around until he manages to regain his balance. Looking down Wizard notices the ground beneath him liquefy as he begins sinking into it "Money is all you need, there is no need for love in your life. Money is what is worth fighting for, yes!" Hoteye proclaims while holding his left hand forward again while surrounded by an orange aura.

"Money should never be the most important thing in your life. It's your family, and your friends that should hold that place in your heart!" Wizard states as he takes out his Land Wizard Ring and places it on his left hand.

"Land, Please: Dododo Dododon, Don Dododon!"

"Drill, Please!"

Wizard rapidly begins spinning around until he disappears into the ground itself "Such useless things those are, money is all I need to give me power. Yes!" Hoteye says as he then launches himself back.

Just as Wizard erupts from the ground with a kick that would have hit Hoteye had he not jumped, Hoteye lands several feet away as Wizard lands back on the ground.

"Bind, Please!"

Stone chains shoot out from the ground around Hoteye wrapping themselves around him "Big, Please!" a yellow magic circle appears in front of Wizard as he throws his right arm through it causing it to enlarge.

"Yes!" Hoteye yells as without raising his arm he summons a wave of liquefied earth to block Wizard's attack from hitting him while also at the same time liquefying the rock chains to free himself.

Double groans in pain as he gets back on his feet, just then a shadowy figure appears behind him as it slowly reaches toward him "Shotaro!" Philip shouts.

Double turns his head slightly with a "Hm." and follows with a roundhouse kick from his right leg which produces a powerful gust of wind forcing the attack to launch themselves away. The figure lands several feet away and slides to a stop revealing the fake Gray "Not bad." he says.

"Gray?" Double/Shotaro questions.

"No, it's not." Double/Philip responds as Double turns his head to notice the real Gray still injured on the ground.

"Right, the doppelganger guy." Double/Shotaro says.

"Ah~, looks like time is up." the voice of one of the blue creatures spoke as in a puff of smoke they change back to their regular forms floating in the air.

"What are those things?" Double/Shotaro questions.

"No idea. But based on what we've seen, whoever they touch they're able to take not only that person's appearance. But also their magic abilities as well." Double/Philip says.

"Not only that, but we also gain a bit of their memory as well."

"Which is how we were able to find out what your plan was."

"So don't let them touch me and they can't take on my look and abilities, got it." Double/Shotaro says.

"Will you two stop talking and just take that half and half boy down already?" Angel calmly speaks out from a few feet away.

The two small creatures blast themselves off towards Double at incredible speeds "They're fast!" Double/Shotaro says as he takes out his Metal Memory.

"Metal!"

"Cyclone! Metal! (Technical guitar to metallic synth)"

Armed with his Metal Shaft, Double swings the weapon forward forcing the two blue creatures to split and fly apart to dodge the attack as they fly to Double's back. However Double is able to quickly recover and swing his staff around forcing them back with a gust of wind that he produces.

Cobra chuckles "I can hear the both of you." he says.

Fourze and Gaim charge him with battle cries as Gaim holds his two weapons at the ready, Gaim reaches Cobra first and swings his sword down which Cobra simply sidesteps to dodge as Fourze leaps at him and throws a punch which Cobra catches with his right hand. Cobra manages to flip Fourze around in the air as he then kicks him in the back sending the Rider flying towards Gaim who manages to catch him as this nevertheless still knocks him to the ground with Fourze.

"This guy and his hearing is getting annoying!" Gaim states in annoyance as both he and Fourze get back on their feet.

"No kidding." Fourze says in agreement as he takes out one of his switches and places another into his Driver.

"Smoke, On!"

Equipping the Smoke Module onto his right leg Fourze produces a cloud of smoke obscuring both him and Gaim from Cobra's view "You really think this will help you?" Cobra questions.

Gaim comes jumping through the smoke as he swings both of his swords in a cross-slashing attack which Cobra hops back to avoid, Gaim runs after him and continues to swing both his sword and saber to land a hit on Cobra. However the man continues to prove practically untouchable as he effortlessly dodges swing after swing no matter what Gaim does or how fast he swings his weapons "How many times must I tell you. I can-"

"We get it you can hear us and you saying that constantly is rather annoying!" Gaim yells as he continues swinging his weapons.

"Then get it through your heads already." Cobra says as he ducks while spinning around planting his right foot back, then throwing it forward kicking Gaim in the chest sending him flying back as he hits the ground on his side "You can't beat me!" he states just as the outline of an invisible figure appears behind him.

"Cubellios!" Cobra shouts as his snake shoots at the cloaked figure behind him.

Biting down on something and lifting that figure up into the air as they cry out in pain as Fourze's time limit on his Stealth module reaches its limit causing him to reappear. Cubellios biting down on his right shoulder as luckily his armor manages to protect him from the snake's fangs and venom but still proves very painful nonetheless.

"In that case!" Fourze says as he places his Elek Switch into his Driver "Elek! Elek, On! (Electricity crackle, followed by high-energy techno music)"

"Take this!" Fourze shouts as he slams his Elek Module Billy the Rod against the giant snake sending electricity coursing through it as it rears its head back and shrieks out in pain.

"Cubellios!" Cobra yells in horror.

Gaim gets back on his feet and sees this "An opening!" he says taking out his Pine Lockseed.

"Pine!"

"Lock On! Soiya! Pine Arms! Funsai Destroy!" transforming into his Pine Arms Gaim throws his Pine Iron forward, using the chain to wrap up Cobra in it while he is distracted as by the time Cobra notices what is happening it is too late as he finds himself wrapped up by the Pine Iron's chain.

Cobra's snake falls to the ground as Fourze lands beside it "Gentaro!" Gaim calls out.

"Yeah! You like listening to things, listen to some of this!" Fourze says placing his Beat Module into his Driver.

"Beat!"

"Beat, On!"

Summoning the Beat Module onto his right leg Fourze immediately produces sonic waves from the speaker as Cobra's eyes widened in a panic as he began crying out in pain "Ah~ the noise! It hurts!"

"What's wrong? Can't stand the beat drop?" Gaim sarcastically questions as he pulls back on his Musou saber's barrett slide and fires a few shots hitting Cobra multiple times as he drops to the ground.

"The power of money will prevail over you, yes!" Hoteye yells as he holds his left hand forward again, this time summoning up a massive wave of liquefied earth as he sends it blasting towards Wizard.

"Let's see how that power fares up against this." Wizard says as he places his Land Dragon Ring on and switches the position of his Hand Author.

"Land, Dragon: Dan Den Don Zu Dogon, Dan Den Dogon!"

Hearing the word dragon, Wendy peeks out from behind the rock with a look of shock on her face as she quietly says to herself "D-Dragon?"

"Choine, Special! Saiko~!"

All Hoteye sees next is six energy claw marks appear on the giant tidal wave of dirt as it suddenly explodes to pieces revealing Wizard on the other side with his Drago Hell Claws as for once he is actually caught by complete shock and surprise by something.

"D-Dragon claws?!" he nearly shouts with widened eyes and dropped open mouth.

"Choine, Gravity! Saiko~!" Just then a yellow magic circle appears above Hoteye as he feels the gravity around him suddenly begin pushing him downwards with heavy force.

Unable to fight it Hoteye is slammed against the ground on his back "G-Gravity magic?!" he questions.

Double swings his staff missing one of the blue creatures, he swings again missing the other. Getting annoyed by this as he was getting absolutely nowhere Double yells out in anger "Buzz off already you annoying bugs!" he shouts

"Metal! Maximum Drive!"

"Metal Twister!" Double shouts as he spins around while swinging his Metal Shaft which is covered in an aura of wind.

Producing a powerful gust of wind that shoots out all around him sending the two small blue creatures flying away right towards Angel who is too taken aback by this she is unable to react in time as the two creatures crash right into her sending her to the ground with a yelp.

The yellow streak of OOO clashes against the red streak of Racer multiple times across the battlefield, time slows down as OOO is seen swinging his left Tora Claw at Racer who jumps over it to dodge before time speeds back up. Time comes to a slow again as Racer attempts a jumping reverse roundhouse kick which OOO ducks under while sliding under the attack before they both disappear once more from their speed. Finally OOO manages to land a strike with both Tora claws to Racer's chest sending sparks flying from him as Racer is sent flying several feet to the ground rolling a few times before stopping on his back, groaning in pain.

Brain grunts in shock seeing most of his guildmates being defeated "Impossible." he says.

"No way." Ren says in pain while attempting to push himself back up.

"They're...they're beating them?" Hibiki questions.

"But how?" Sherry questions.

Gray lightly chuckles as he manages to give a small grin "You should firsthand, never to underestimate those guys." he says.

Lucy and Natsu are both attempting to get back up as Lucy smiles at seeing the Riders kicking the bad guys' butts like always with Natsu also giving off a small smirk.

"Let's finish these guys!" Double/Shotaro shouts.

"Yeah!" the other Riders all yell out in agreement.

"Cyclone! Joker!"

"Joker! Maximum Drive!"

"Scanning Charge!"

"Choine, Kick Strike! Saiko~!"

"Kouta! I'll keep him down! Finish it!" Fourze yells.

"Yeah!" Gaim yells back in agreement as he pulls up on his cutting blade "Soiya! Pine Squash!"

Double, Wizard, and Gaim all launch themselves into the air as Wizard and Gaim extend their right legs forward while Double extends both of his legs forward, with OOO powering up his Tora Claws as he bends down a little while drawling out his battle cry.

"Joker Extreme!" Double yells.

"Seiya~!"

Both Wizard and Gaim let out their respective battle cries as they begin descending down towards their target.

Suddenly before the Riders can connect their attacks into their opponents, two streaks of incredibly fast figures appear from out of nowhere and begin striking down the Riders. Double, Gaim, Wizard, and OOO, all of them are hit mid-attack and blasted away crying out in pain from whatever it was that had hit them.

"What?!" Fourze says in shock confused as to what just happened.

Just as he too is hit by one of these speeding figures multiple times from the back, and front sending him flying away, landing and rolling across the ground once landing close to the rest of his Rider comrades. Happy, Wendy, and Carla gasp in shock.

"What?!" Lucy says also in shock.

"What was that?!" Lyon questions.

"A new enemy?!" Even questions.

The Riders all get back on their feet in an attempt to continue fighting, however the two new attackers speed in once more and begin striking every one of the Riders multiple times in just mere seconds as sparks fly from the Riders and they cry out in immense pain while flailing their arms and twisting and turning around. Until one by one the Riders receive one more strike from the unknown enemies sending them flying once more to the ground as they land close to Natsu and the others.

"Shotaro! Everyone!" Natsu yells.

"What the hell was that?" Gaim questions while writhing in pain.

Brain growls in anger as he lowers his head a little "Just as predicted." a disembodied voice echoes out through the air.

"For as powerful as you proclaim to be…" a dimensional wall appears behind Brain, and from it two figures emerge "Had we not intervened, your "Oracion Seis" would had been reduced to two members." Apollo Geist comments as he, along with Doras walk up on either side of Brain.

The Riders and Fairy Tail members all gasp in shock and horror while one by one the rest of the alliance members all begin gasping as well, completely taken aback by the appearance of the two unknown, monstrous figures. Just then the two speeding figures stop in front of the three leaders, revealing themselves to be the Cammarus Worm, and the Camponotus Worm.

The Riders all let out quiet growls of anger, as meanwhile the recovered Oracion Seis members begin to regroup with Brain and their Dai-Shocker allies "We had everything perfectly under control." Racer says.

"Of course you did." Apollo Geist sarcastically remarks.

"Then next, we will just let the Kamen Riders finish you insolent humans off." Doras speaks in his monstrous voice.

"I can hear your every thoughts. I would like to see you monsters try." Cobra challenges while baring his teeth.

The two Worms turn their attention towards the rest of the Oracion Seis members who all tense up as they mentally prepare themselves to possibly fight against the Dai-Shocker monsters.

"Enough! Let us just be rid of these fools already. The Riders, and their mage friends." Apollo Geist says "Brain, I will give you the honor as to redeem yourself and your guild."

Brain nods his head with his eyes closed "Very well." he says as he takes a few steps forward.

The Kamen Riders and Mages all attempt to get back on their feet, but find themselves to injured and weakened to get back up. Brain comes to a stop as he looks at the defeated alliance before him "Trash, you should all vanish from this earth." Brain says.

He then aims his staff forward summoning a dark purple magic circle with a sinister looking skull at the center, as then a number of dark green magical energy shoot out from it and form a spiral. Suddenly from the ground, the same dark green magic energy begins to emit from it like smoke.

"What is this magical power?" Sherry questions in her weakened state.

"The atmosphere is trembling!" Hibiki states.

"This is bad…" Ren says.

"We have to...get up…" Double/Shotaro says as he attempts to push himself back up only to fall back down.

Brain raises his staff into the air as the dark magic energy spirals around him in several different tendrils "Dark Rondo!" Brain calmly says.

OOO manages to push himself onto his feet, however before he can do anything Apollo Geist raises and throws his shield striking OOO and knocking him back to the ground.

Brain prepares to cast his magic to destroy the Riders and Mages, when something catches his attention. Suddenly Brain lowers his staff while his magic attack dissipates away, this catches the attention of the Dai-Shocker leaders, as well as his comrades "What's the matter, Brain?" Racer asks.

"Why did you stop the spell?" Cobra asks.

"What are you doing? I said to destroy them!" Apollo Geist states.

However Brain seems to be taken aback by something as his eyes are widened in shock and he takes in a sharp breath "Wendy!" he says.

Q&A…

To ZaWarudoMan - I have seen Overlord, never seen JoJo but I have it on a list of anime to watch. Right now don't have anything planned for Overlord since for me anyways it's a bit tricky on what I would do with that universe and its characters.

To Guest - I plan to have this story go all the way to the final Arc, including the 2 Movies. So yes I do have things planned for those Arcs, and some ideas for the movies.

To MaxGundam1998 - Guess we'll have to figure that out when we get there. But I highly doubt they would do that to all of the Past Riders and have their powers be taken away forever.

To Hank - Eventually. And with him being the last of the Heisei/Neo-Heisei Riders, that means he would be the last to join. It's just up to when and where he will you could ask.

To KRKing - I would imagine Wendy seeing a "Big Brother" sort of persona in all of the Riders as they would be nice to her and everything like everyone else and of course protect her since she isn't much of a fighter until later arcs.

To TienMaD - Again, during this time Drive is still in his early career as a Kamen Rider. Please don't go based off real time as I've already established this before. Drive and the others would most likely appear Post 7 Years Timeskip and not any time sooner.

To Guest - Yes, I agree. However it's not too bad as change a few things around and you can sort of see it taking place after the GMG arc.

To Guest dv - Dang, 4 years (back in Sep 2018 XP). I really need to get to work on this story. Unfortunately… Also if I give you a sneak peek to how this story ends then...well that's kind of pointless then to write the rest of the story than right?

To ryanvanmatre8 - Unforuntately Mystic Force is among the seasons I never saw, though it is on my list to when I do watch it eventually.

To TheOkWriter - If there's a reason for it maybe.

To Guest - I believe I had Gaim show that he had access to the Dandeliner on multiple occasions such as during the fight against Lullaby.

To Anti-W.T.F - Glad you noticed XD, got to have those "Easter Egg" sort of things in this story to make things interesting from time to time. Glad you're enjoying things so far!

To Nexus240 - Uhhh I don't really see that happening. Also I definitely don't see Mavis doing anything like that given her status as...you know a spirit or something like that?

To Guest - Nobody's Perfect Song? Also I don't see anything like that happening as that whole "Finger on the Trigger" thing was a one-time sort of deal that sort of fit into the story quite well actually.

To IceBite - Shhhhh spoilers XD

To The Casual Noeru-kun - Thought about it, maybe, just having trouble figuring out how ALL of that would work and who's powers would be what, etc…

To Kamen rider - No idea what to think, enjoying Beast Morphers so far, and definitely seeing a step up in production quality with A LOT of original scenes and whatnot. Personally didn't have anything wrong with the "Neo-Saban" Era but I could see why people didn't like "certain aspects" as for crossovers. Most likely I'd just stick with the TV Shows and not do anything with the Comics.

To Dragon Rider 66 - Maybe, obviously that's something for far sometime into the future if it does potentially happen.

To DB-19 - Ba Dum Tss!

To Alphazero524 - Since this has long since passed might as well say, Build was another great Rider series for me. Enjoying Kamen Rider Zi-O thus far.
