A/N: Yep. We're still in the filler arc also known as the Loke Arc. I've made my disdain toward this arc being rather pointless in the grand scheme of things. I mean it gets Lucy another Celestial Spirit but that's about it. The Loke Arc is also in between the Phantom Lord and Tower of Heaven Arc, two amazing arcs. You'll see my full opinion about the Tower of Heaven Arc once we start it in about five chapters.
This arc started from Fairy Legion Chapter 42 and hopefully, it'll end by Chapter 55. I'm doing this since one or two chapters of them are going to be the Loke Arc. It's either A or B since I can make the chapter super long or divide it into two. It really does depend on my thinking at the time. Like I said before, I don't know how I was going to fit Zane into the Loke Arc and was going to have it going on in background with the Volcanic City.
I decided it against that since I had a bunch more stories to tell plus I want to see if I can make a longer filler arc than I did with Fairy Legion Chapter 18-30. I'm sure it won't be because I want to get started on the Tower of Heaven arc. You may have noticed that I haven't done in Manga recaps of Edens Zero, Fairy Tail 100 year quest, or One Piece since Chapter 40 and there is a very good reason for it. I haven't done something like that for a while so I'm a little rusty.
The other reason is that I plan on doing a massive recap for One Piece starting from where I ended up last time with One Piece Chapter 933 to the end of the second act of Wano. It'll be a long one and unlike the My Hero recap, I'll be going into great detail on my thoughts and opinions of it. It'll be a good one I promise you and well, I think I have a strong opinion against the arc. So lets talk about some stupid stuff I found online.
So I have a pretty strong dislike for Star Wars. I'll admit this online since no one actually reads these stories to begin. I don't care how Rey is a Mary Sue ,I just like the video, or really anything Star Wars related. I'm not excited for the last movie in the series even though, it'll probably be the highest grossing movie for the weekend of December 20 to 22. I mean Cats may prove me extremely wrong but it's Star Wars after all. It's the fifth highest grossing franchise of all time and Disney.
Even though Captain Marvel was okay, it still made over a billion dollars. The Lion King remake made a billion dollars and considered an animated movie. I'm no movie expert but does CGI count as animation? My point is this. If the new Star Wars good or bad, I don't care. This rant was inspired by a single picture. I just found it funny and unlike the one involving Captain Marvel from the last Zero post, I do agree with it. Context is needed for both of them mind you but it's funny without it.
We got one thing left to talk about it and it's a CBR list involving the top 10 strongest Fairy Tail Characters. I really should take it with a grain of salt but hey, I'm allow to nitpick and complain about stuff. It's part of the fun I've learned. I do agree with some parts of the list like how Gray and Mira are there but there are more negatives to positives. The three big ones are August should be higher, Laxus should be higher, and Natsu should be higher.
The middle one is my bias toward Laxus but August and Natsu should be higher. August is one of the few characters who can keep with the ripoff aka Gildarts, wreck Jellal which I approve of, and spoiler alert. He's the son of Mavis and Zeref! That should make him a powerful wizard right? Natsu is the main male character since Lucy is the main female character. Natsu being the main character isn't the only reason. He was able to defeat Acnologica and other powerful wizards.
I do like how Jellal and Makarov aren't on the list but not a single mention of Hades but for some reason, Erza is up that high. Get out of here. She isn't and this is my bias toward her coming forward in full force. If your argument for her is that Erza has plot armor and the fact she wins everything is because she's Erza isn't a valid one. Zane ,despite his OP powers, loses. I just do a terrible job at showing it but he does lose.
Erza never really does and walks away from more battle victorious than losing. Is this list terrible? I would say yes but hey, it's CBR. They have to write at least ten articles a day and none of them are going to be good. Anyway, I think it's time to begin this chapter. The title makes it pretty obvious about what's going on. I should mention one last thing. Expect the One Piece Rant soon rather than later. Lets begin.
Narrator P.O.V.
It had been a good day since Team Maelstrom return from their adventure in Grimcroft Springs. Each member of the team and Dante from Lamia Scale had been paid five million jewels. The job's reward was twenty million jewels so divide it by four and you get the reward for each wizard. So with five million jewels in their pockets, you would think that the trio of Juvia, Levy, and Zane would sit back and relax but Zane doesn't rest even when he's supposed to be on vacation.
The Protector of Earth was going on his way toward the Magnolia Station and was currently sipping on a Cherry Grape slushie. You may be asking why he's doing this job in the first place. He had just recently gotten back from Grimcroft Springs just the other day. A normal wizard would relax after a S-Class job but Zane had two reasons for going on this job. The first reason is to help pay for Sly's unhealthy slushie addiction and preparations Kaida's fifth birthday in December.
Zane was going to sing her the typical birthday song but after getting a classic song ,which came from one of the Omniverse's longest lasting shows, on his phone's playlist yesterday, he decided to get away from Magnolia for a while. He looked at the job request he took earlier from the guildhall. It was a simple exploration of the Abandoned Outpost nearby the town of Zelkova. It was discovered by the townspeople and excavated by a group known as the Archaeological Society.
They are a group of archaeologists whose goal is to preserve the archaeological sites within the kingdom of Fiore. One of their archaeologist had claimed that these ruins were left by an ancient tribe of humans that existed long ago in the northern part of Fiore. Zane may have picked this job on a whim being that he needed to get out of Magnolia. It may be a good amount of months before Kaida's birth but he liked to be prepared. Another reason was visions of the past were returning.
As he paid for his tickets, he waited for the train to arrive. As it came by, the conductor spotted the Fairy Tail member. "Ah. It seems that Fairy Tail is finally back in business after that whole war with Phantom Lord. Being seeing a lot of your Nakama around the station. It's been a rough time hasn't it young man?" said the conductor. "It was for the rest of my guild and Phantom Lord. I didn't have a hard time." said Zane in a cold, blunt tone.
After saying that, the conductor looked at Zane. In his time working for the Fiore railways, Fairy Tail wizards have all been positive. His favorite group of Fairies are Titania and her group that she had joined up. "That war you speak of is nothing. Leave me alone. I'm not like Prude Knight so fuck off before I end your life." said Zane, making his eyes glow red and the demon glare in full force. "Sorry for bothering you sir!" said the conductor.
Zane walked onto the train with him taking a seat and the conductor blowing the horn. "Why must he blown the horn so much? I know the answer but still. Why is that humans tell when the train is leaving without the horn being blown so much" thought Zane, covering his ears with his headphones and blasting his music. "We're leaving Magnolia Station." said the conductor. The train was slowly leaving the city with Zane getting comfortable and begin to reminisce over his past.
About two hours later, the train eventually stopped at the Zelkova station. The slight movement of the train woke Zane up from his nap with the Cross Species growling. "I did promise Rae that I wouldn't murder the conductors for doing their job but she didn't say anything about scaring him." thought Zane with him smiling. A bit later, Zane was walking around the small town of Zelkova. Unlike the town of Magnolia which had a medieval/western style, Zelkova was stuck in the wild west.
If Sly were here, she would be begging Zane not to do the accent which Bone Form and Gunslinger Form have. It's known as a southern accent or twang. "So I better get going to meet up with the client. He's from the Archaeological Society and apparently their leader." thought Zane as he left the station. Zane knew where the location of the Archaeological Society's base of operation was thanks to him doing researching and scaring the conductor at the same time.
About ten minutes later, Zane was in front of a building. "Yep. I'm definitely in the right place." said Zane. He looked at the sign that's right in front of the building. It said,"Home of the Archaeological Society.". "At the very least, it isn't written in flashy lights. Subtly isn't this dimension's strongest suit I've noticed." thought Zane. Zane knocked on the door being that the door eventually opened to reveal the man on the other side.
A few moments later, a man opened it up. He's a middle-aged man of average height and build. He has a stern look and stout facial features, with a large purple beard accompanied by a mustache of the same color crowning his face. He has large curvy eyebrows. He has long purple hair which reaches down to his middle-back. He's tied in a loose ponytail at his neck. On the top of his head however, he is completely bald.
He's wearing a light brownish adventurer's hat. The rest of his clothing is in this particular light brownish color. He wears a loose-fitting pocket-vest with the sleeves rolled up ,held in place at his waist by leather belt, and this is accompanied by baggy pants adorned with the same kinds of pockets as the aforementioned vest. He wears long black boots. He also has on long red wrist bands and a white scarf tied loosely around his neck.
For some quick clarification, this is Jean-Luc Nerville. He first appeared in the Key of Starry Sky Arc. You may be wondering why I'm introducing this character so early on. I don't know if I'm going to do that arc since well, I don't think it's very good. That may change but I could be wrong. Did you know that according to Jean-Luc's Fairy Tail wiki article, he appeared in the Alvarez Empire Arc in the anime. The more you know.
Jean-Luc smiled with him saying,"Hello there. How can I help you?". "I'm here to accept the request you gave to my guild. My name is Zane Alvarez from Fairy Tail. Oh and before you ask, call me by my name rather than my epithet. Oh and you're rocking the beard look. I would rock one as well but well, my beard has to wait for a while." said Zane, smiling. The man's eyes widened in joy upon hearing the news as he offered Zane inside.
As Zane closed the door, the hero took a seat on a nearby table and was looking around. "Wow. This place is less than a dump than I though. Most of the archaeologists I've met over the years are pretty messy." said Zane. Jean-Luc was going through a pile of papers, searching until he took out a map. It looked to have turned yellow from age. Jean-Luc instantly brought it to the table where Zane was sitting nearby, spreading it out.
Jean-Luc said,"So like the request said, I needed someone to go out and scout the Abandoned Outpost in my place. From what we discovered from ancient readings, the people who once lived in the area about four hundred years ago were marvelous users of magic. They were called the Nirvit, a tribe of native people who lived through the land. They went extinct however.". During his research over the history of Fiore, Zane knew about the Nirvit.
Their history was quite fascinating. "So since the Nirvit were so good with magic, you think these ruins have a bunch of traps right?" said Zane. "Yes. I made the request even though I have Dispel magic but well, I'm not exactly what you may physically cable of exploring ruins with the Nirvit's rumored magic guarding their temples." said Jean-Luc. "Sure. We got this. Time to go excavating. I'm look forward to it. Good time killer." said Zane.
Zane was about to leave when Jean-Luc remembered something. "Oh Zane. One more thing I should mention! You see, I sent the request to a few other guilds other than Fairy Tail. About thirty minutes ago in fact, another person came in for the job. If I recall, it was a blue haired girl and she is younger than you by about five years." said Jean-Luc. "Oh. That's interesting. So did someone else accepted the job? Want me to leave it to her?" said Zane.
Jean-Luc smiled as he said,"Not at all! I sent multiple forms because I believe in the saying the more people than merrier. If you head out now, you can probably catch up to your fellow wizard! She's very clumsy. Tripped over air she did. Oh and take this copy of the map!". The other dimensional travelers nodded as he walked out. Zane put the map away in his bag with him holding out his watch and it projected a holographic image of the map.
He followed the map before reached the start of a large forest with him entering it. As the hero went through the forest, the sounds of nature echoed throughout. The birds were chirping as the wind blew the lush greenery ,around him, in a gracious manner. Zane smiled with him taking in the atmosphere around him. The peace didn't last for too long being that there was a large explosion going off in a different part of the forest.
Zane looked toward the direction where the explosion happened. "And I guess it's time to be a hero since heroes don't take vacations." said Zane. He began to fly through the forest, scaring the animals away from the area if the explosion didn't scare them earlier. Zane stopped after reaching a cliff and gazed upon a thin trail of smoke. "I need to get going and fast." said Zane as he threw something onto the ground to the left of him.
It's a metallic obsidian black, oval shaped piece of an unknown metal. This instantly changed into a all red technological surf board. It floats a few inches off the ground. Zane stepped on it with him going down the cliff in less than a second. This is Zane's Legion Board. Upon reaching the bottom of the cliff, Zane easily sense a wave of Ethernano close by. Zane drifted his way toward the location of the Ethernano wave before reaching a decently sized crater.
Due to his several years of heroics, Zane began to look around for any traces of fire. "Okay aside from a couple of burned trees and small flames, this is pretty tame." said Zane, putting his surfboard back in his pocket dimension and turned into Vision Form. This form looked different from last time it appeared on Fairy Legion and this is thanks to the Zenith Core. Zane’s body is now a light gray color being still made of scales. His chest is still covered in gray being a dark gray color.
His skin is shiny, smooth. His body looked to be made out of rubber. He looks like a cyclops. His upper body is still quite muscular with his legs having bulk to them. His body looks like an Olympic athlete. He still has five fingers and toes. He loses most of the eyes that covers his body being that he has only one green eye. It covers most of his face. He has no nose being that he has two elf like ears sticking out from his hair.
He has long silver hair that ends around his shoulder. One strand of hair sticking out from the top of it, forming an ahoge. His bangs loosely cover his forehead and his giant eye. His side bangs frame his face. He wears a black long sleeved shirt with a white eye ball shaped pattern on it. The sleeves of his shirt end around his elbows. His arms are covered by red gloves with the upper edge of the gloves being prison like cuffs.
He still wears black pants with him wearing red boots with prison like cuffs at the upper edge of his boots. He wears a red prison like cuff choker around his neck and had a black cape coming out of the back of his choker. Zane jumped toward the burning trees, spouting multiple eyes over his body. The eyes all fired out beams of ice or water from them. This nullified the flames with Zane smiling as the spouted eyes went back into his body.
Zane looked around with him saying in a shy voice,"And Curtis said I was never good at cleaning up messes.". Zane looked around being that he sensed nothing. He deactivated the form with the hero walking around. "Okay. There's nothing else. Pretty sure the Nirvit have traps everywhere around the ruins so where is the next trap?" said Zane. As he walked around, his left foot stepped on something and it made a "clink" sound.
The hero easily recognized the sound with him saying,"And I think I just found it. Why is it that my luck helps me wins at making bets and cards but always activate landmines?". The metal object began to flash before exploding. This would sent a normal man flying but Zane stood there and took it like a man. As the smoke cleared, Zane heard a voice screaming with him saying,"And I think that's the other wizard Jean-Luc mentioned. She's real clumsy alright.".
Zane watched a female human figure flying toward an open plain in the middle of the forest. Zane warped to her location and caught her before she crashed into the ground. Zane landed on the ground with it shaking around him. Zane heard soft whimpering from the guy he was holding in his arms like a princess. "Wow. You went for a real flight there. You going to be okay little lady?" said Zane. He placed her on the ground with him taking a good luck at her and her with him.
I should mention this right now but Wendy is getting a Fairy Legion redesign. It won't be too drastic like I did with Levy and Zeref in their respective chapters. I'm aging her to 14 so she's a bit closer to the rest of the guild in terms of age. This accounts to when the seven year time skip happens, she'll be the same age as Sherria Blendy. From my research, most of the cast ,at least this by Episode 30 of the Anime or in X784, is around the mid teens to late teens.
There are a couple of examples such as Jura or Master Makarov who are way past their teens but the majority of the cast is at this point. Do note that if you're very well aware that the First and Third Generation of Fairy Tail aren't exactly in their teens. Lets begin with the update Wendy Marvell aka the Sky Sorceress. She's a beautiful young fair skinned woman. She's about 4 foot 11 being that she looks to be slightly shorter than Lucy. The chart I use is probably very inaccurate.
She has a petite, yet toned figure with a developing hourglass figure. This is apparent due to her lean muscles in her arms and legs. While she didn't look to be supplied with two balloons on her chest, she did have breasts for a girl her age. They looked to be a B Cup. I mention the cup size a lot since the majority of females in Fairy Tail easily have a cup size over D easily. She has waist length dark blue hair that was it was in a single long ponytail that went to the center of her back.
She has two bangs framing her face and going down to her chest. She has warm brown eyes that seem to scream kindness. She has elongated canine teeth like Zane had seen on Gajeel, Lynn, Natsu, and Stella. This means that she was a Dragon Slayer but now, there are two questions. What generation of dragon slayer is she? And what element can she is? She's wearing her outfit that she wore once she joined Fairy Tail rather than her initial outfit which some changes.
This is due to me not liking it as much. Bias drives this series and like before, I don't know fashion so look at the picture except for the pigtails. If I decided to change, you'll see me changing it. She's wearing a backless, flowing sundress that went to the middle of her thighs. It's tied around her neck with a gold band. It's primarily a green color with three stripes ,being blue, green, and yellow in that order with white lining separate the three different stripes, running near the top of the dress.
Under her dress, she's wearing black thigh high stockings. She's wearing gold bands around his arms and legs with them having a white wing like attachment to them. She's wearing brown ankle high sandals. On her right shoulder, she had a sky blue guild stamp with it looking like a cat. The girl looked at Zane with her saying,"Oh. Are you here for the request?". After she said that, she noticed how tall he was and how close he was to her.
She had a light blush on her face with her trying to move away from him but she tripped over a very small pebble. Zane blinked with him thinking,"Okay. I have a question. Where did that pebble come from? We're in an empty field!". "Um. Yep. My name is Zane Alvarez. Nice to meet you. And what is your name?" said Zane, holding out his right hand. The girl took a deep breath with her looking at his right arm.
It's black on the right side, white on the left side, and a single indigo colored stripe dividing the arm into two sections. His hand fits the color scheme as well being that the palm ,being a Hidari Gomon, being the indigo color. "Don't worry. It doesn't bite." said Zane, clearly seeing how nervous she was at its appearance. "Okay. My name is Wendy Marvel, nice to meet you!" said Wendy, bowing to Zane with Zane sweatdropping.
Zane sighed as he said,"You really don't need to bow Wendy. Just shake my hand please. I'm just a normal being of the Omniverse and not just the king of one of the nine realms. It's so annoying to have people bow to me.". Wendy raised her head and shook Zane's hand. She let go of Zane's hand with her averting her gaze and head a bit. Her cheeks were slightly tinted. "A boy! And he's around my age! Oh Carla, where are you at times like this?" thought Wendy.
She was clearly flustered with her hands holding onto her head. "Okay. I'm pretty sure that she isn't used to see males that looked to be around her age. Wonder if her guild is filled with only females and only men much than older." thought Zane, crossing his arms. Wendy slapped her cheeks with her hands to snap out of her daze. She began taking a few deep breaths before turning around to face Zane with her no longing blushing.
Zane smiled as he said,"I'm going to take a guess and guess that the first explosion was you.". The girl chuckled a bit before she sheepishly smiled. "If I didn't douse those fire caused by the landmines around here, we would have had a problem. Forest fires are a bitch but at least, we're safe for right now." said Zane. "Sorry Zane but I'm kinda of a klutz. I'm actually really nervous right now since my best friend or partner isn't here right now?" said Wendy, rubbing the back of her head shyly.
The Cross Species looked at her with him saying,"So you're part of a team?". "Well, kinda. She's the person I'm the closest to. She has an interesting appearance and you wouldn't believe me if I told you Zane." said Wendy. "Trust me when I say this Wendy but I've seen pretty weird stuff throughout my life. How about you tell me? I'll believe you if even you're lying to me." said Zane. "Um sure. My partner is a talking cat." said Wendy.
The girl was smiling with Zane saying,"Huh. That's something.". "What do you mean by that?" said Wendy, tilting her head. "Like I said, I've seen weird stuff before. Back at my guild, there is not one but two talking cats. They're both members and well, they are both idiots for different reasons. Let me guess. Your talking cat can sprout wings from her back." said Zane. "Yeah. How do you know that Zane?" said Wendy.
Zane tapped the side of his head with him saying,"Telepath. I'm a wizard who can use a lot of magic but apparently, my Take Over magic is the most famous. In fact, let me show you one of them.". The girl watched Zane disappeared with him turning into Archfiend Form. She was shocked by this. "I've heard about Take Over magic from my master but never seen it before. Are you a demon right now Zane?" said Wendy.
She looked at the demon in front of her with interest as Zane held up his right arm. "You're correct Wendy! Archfiend Form is a demon creature but not one from Earthland since I'm not living on a island or a book apparently. My current appearance is thanks to my Z.E.R.O. watch and just one of the infinite amount of forms I can turn into it. Pretty awesome right?" said Zane with him smiling brightly.
The girl clapped a bit as she was in complete shock by Zane. "Um. You wouldn't happen to have any cat based forms at your disposal?" said Wendy. "I'm really sorry Wendy but the cats I haven't aren't like your pal whatsoever. Kinda happy about that since the cats I have in my guild are really annoying. Your pal isn't." said Zane. "Oh." said Wendy, sulking a bit. Zane deactivated the form with him placing a hand on her shoulder.
Wendy ,with a light blush, looked at Zane with him saying,"Don't be sad Wendy. You'll see her again I promise.". He smiled with Wendy nodding slightly and her fingers fidgeting. "Okay. Do you mind if we stay together and complete the job Zane? I mean I don't want to disappoint Jean-Luc since he believes in me or us!" said Wendy. "Sure. I would be honored to join you." said Zane. The two started walking together as Zane made the map appear using his watch.
This stunned Wendy with Zane smiling at Wendy's antics. She reminded him of his kids when they were at the age to be amazed at everything he did or Kaida right now. After figuring out where they are and the landmines were, the two made a concise path on where to go. As the two traveled, they talked to each other about various things. It usually involved Wendy getting shocked by what Zane has done and Zane enjoying Wendy's antics.
After a few minutes of walking, the two were in front of a giant monolith. It was made out of white stone with various patterns and symbols covered it. It looked to be cracked with the cracks filled with moss. Zane looked at the holographic map and he said,"Yep. If this isn't the place, I don't know what ruins are.". Wendy walked around with her eyeing the area. She turned around to see the holographic map disappear and Zane crossed his arms. "Where do you think the entrance is?" said Wendy.
Zane shrugged with him searching around and Wendy followed him a few inches away. The hero took note of the symbols and other things that could be clues. "Okay. If I know ruins which I do very well Wendy, they usually have something that sticks out compared to everything else. Our first goal should to be fine anything that looks strange." said Zane with Wendy nodding in response. The two of them started to take mental notes of the structure, looking for anything strange.
Wendy noticed a slightly different shaped pattern ,compared to the rest of the pattern, on one side of the ruins. She was about to call out for Zane when something rustling behind her. The girl turned around to see a large bush being pushed away, revealing a large figure. The appearance was shadowed and eyes glowed menacingly. Over with Zane, the hero took another look around. He was pretty sure that he was right about looking for a tile that was not like the others.
Zane thought with his eyes closed,"Okay. I'm pretty sure that ruins in any dimension have stuff like that. So where is it.....". He opened his eyes when he heard a familiar shriek. "Kyaaah!" said Wendy from her location. Zane turned toward the direction of Wendy's scream with him heading toward the sound. Wendy fell back in feat as she gazed upon the large figure. It looked to be a primate and has appeared in Fairy Legion before in a flashback.
It's a Vulcan but not just any Vulcan. A forest Vulcan that goes by the name Gorian. The ape roared at the teen, causing Wendy to shriek in fear. The ape slammed the ground with its fists as it growled. "I don't get why a HUMAN would be on my turf?!" yelled the ape. Wendy didn't respond since the ape was overwhelming her. Due to this blatant disrespect, the ape only growled louder in response. He raised his arms and was going to do slam them down on her.
Gorian said,"If you won't answer me, I'll just smash you into a.....". His fists were getting closer to Wendy, forcing the girl to cover her eyes in fear. She was grabbed by something being that it moved her out of the way as the ape's fists slammed down on the ground where she was. This caused the area to be covered by a lot of dust and rocks. The ape was speechless for a split second before looking at the next figure who entered his turf like the girl did before.
Wendy opened her eyes with her looking confused before it changed to shock. She looked to see Zane who was carrying her like a princess. "Zane?" said Wendy. "Hands off her you damn dirty ape!" said Zane. Zane looked at Wendy with him saying,"You okay Wendy? Magilla Gorilla didn't hurt you my newest friend right?". She blinked a few times before nodding. Zane smiled with him going back to look at the monster.
Zane had done his research on Vulcans before today. He remember fighting against one with Lucy and Natsu back in the day and watched Natsu fight a Gorian when he was a kid. "If I remember right, this one is slightly smarter than the Vulcans who currently live on Mt. Hakobe. Better make sure that this ape doesn't take over me or Wendy to survive." thought Zane. Said Gorian roared and he jumped toward the duo.
Gorian was going to slam his right arm down on Zane but the hero easily dodged it by jumping over the giant ape with Wendy in his arms. Wendy blushed as he held her closer. The hero landed on the ground with him placing Wendy gently on the ground. Zane turned around to face him as Wendy looked up at him. "I'll be back in a flash. Don't worry. I got this." said Zane, smiling. He learned something very important is his many years as a hero.
When a hero smiles, it's reassuring and helps people not panic. Zane turned around to see the Gorian who looked pissed. "Oh. I made the ape mad. Whatever I will do. I think I know. It's called beating the ape up!" said Zane. Zane turned into Chimera Form, shocking Wendy by its appearance. He grows to be twelve feet with a battle hardened and muscular physique. He has porcelain white skin with his body covered in a huge amount of scars.
This is due to multiple experiments gone horribly wrong. He has short bronze colored hair and indirect heterochromia. His left eye is a silt horizontal gold pupil and his right eye is a silt vertical silver pupil. He wears a black sleeveless shirt with the chemical symbol for oxygen in the center. He wears gray jeans with brown boots. He has a long purplish-black scorpion like tail, currently wrapped around his waist. He has purplish-black claws for fingers and feet. His legs look reptilian or a dinosaur.
His back has a white angel wing on the right and a purplish-black devil wing on the left. The girl's jaw dropped slightly with the Gorian dropping his arm and reacted with confused at the creature in front of him. "What are you?" said Gorian. "The guy whose going to defeat you." said Zane with him cracking his knuckles. The Gorian rushed as he charged toward Zane. "I don't care! I'm going to destroy you and your girlfriend for entering my turf!" yelled Gorian in a loud tone.
The ape attempted to ram Zane into the ground but it failed thanks to Zane flying above him and landed on the ground. "You failed. Really not sorry about this by the way." said Zane. Wendy watched Zane's right arm grow bigger and the fist slammed right into the ape, sending him flying right into a tree. "Wow. This form is amazing!" said Wendy. "Yeah but if only this form could possess people, I would totally perform the stop hitting yourself move." said Zane.
Zane turned to see the Gorian slowly rising back up but was shortly sent back to the ground by Zane who released a wave of fire from his mouth. The Gorian was lightly cooked with steam coming off him and he fell back to the ground. Zane went over to Wendy with him deactivating the form. "So since the ape is down for the count, you alright?" said Zane. Wendy nodded as she stood back up. "I guess that's why you're a superhero. You saved me even though we just met." said Wendy.
The hero nodded as he said,"I'll always save someone whose in danger because that's what a real hero does. So what happened before the ape attack?". "Oh yeah. I was going to call you over to look at something. It's over here." said Wendy. She ran over to a spot with Zane following her. Zane looked at the time with him smiling. He turned to Wendy with him putting out his right fist, hoping to get a fist bump. "Alright! Way to go Wendy!" said Zane.
Wendy blushed as she said,"Oh thanks but I didn't really do anything. I mean you were just awesome saving me.". She averted her gaze from his as Zane shrugged. The Cross-Species pushed down on the tile with a large portion of the wall going up, revealing a way in. Zane looked right at Wendy who was back to normal for now and she smiled. "Um Wendy. I think you're forgetting something." said Zane, making his closed right fist apparent. "Are you going to hit me?" said Wendy.
Zane shook his head as he said,"No! I want to give you a fist bump for finding a way in. It's my way of saying good job.". Before Wendy could do that, the two heard,"Stay away from him you brute of a man!". "Carla?" said Wendy. Zane turned to see a female cat coming towards him. She's a small white cat with pink ears and brown eyes. Compared to say Happy and Vance, her brown eyes looked to be more human like and smaller. She also has two whiskers on each side of her face.
She has on a sapphire blue and rose pink top with a black bow tie. She's wearing a black skirt. She's wearing black mary jane shoes. She has a pink bow tied around near the end of her white tail. Like Happy, she has two angelic wings on her back and her pink guild mark is on her back. "Wendy. You very inept girl. Do you know how long I've been looking for you and you're with this brute?!" said Carla in a scolding tone.
Wendy whimpered with her saying,"I'm sorry Carla.". Carla accepted the apology with a slight huff as she turned to face Zane. "And who is this brute?" said Carla. "This is Zane Alvarez! He came here for the job like us!" said Wendy. Zane went onto his knees as he said with him holding his left hand to the cat,"Nice to meet you Carla. I've heard a lot of good things about you plus I'll have to say this. I like you better than the other talking cats I know.".
Carla accepted the gesture with her saying,"It seems that you're not a brute but if you hurt Wendy, I'll make sure that you never procreate.". "Carla! He isn't going to hurt me!" said Wendy. "You may think that now Wendy but all males always have a ulterior motive in mind especially when talking to a cute girl like yourself. I'm watching you Zane." said Carla. Zane shrugged as the trio went toward the entrance. Wendy gulped a little ,with Carla in hand, and Zane smiled as the trio entered.
Inside of the Abandoned Outpost, it was dark and perhaps too quiet. Wendy's body shook slightly as she followed Zane. The hero looked around, trying to find a light switch. "I'm sure that the Nirvit were smarter than the average wizards of their day and some of the present day wizards if my guild is any indication. Let see if we can find some lacrima light switch or we use my back up plan ladies." said Zane. Using his night vision, he spotted a button.
He pressed down on the button, causing several lacrimas to light up and the hallway that the trio were in was just enough light to travel through. "And now, we have light." said Zane. "Interesting. Guess he isn't like the rest of his idiotic guild." thought Carla. The brightened up room instantly revealed many entrances to several rooms. Zane walked into one of the rooms with the girls following him and the trio observed the room's drawings and patterns.
The group was now in a dimly lit room being that Zane and the girls observed what looks to be a bundle of ancient text. In the center of the room, there looked to be a stone podium with a scroll. The group approached it with Zane sprouting two tendrils from his back. This shocked the girls with Zane saying,"I'm guessing that you don't have a wizard like me in your guild do you?". "No. We don't not but it's pretty cool." said Wendy. "Focus Wendy. What magic is that?" said Carla.
Zane shrugged as he said,"It isn't magic but biology Carla. Lets just say that it's a result of a good friendship I have with a princess.". The two tendrils gently unrolled the scroll to prevent any damage to it. Like the writings on the walls, the scroll's writing was pretty much chicken scratch to most modern day wizards. "The language looks pretty old. I wonder if we can decode it." said Wendy. "I guess we have to take it back to Jean-Luc for that to happen." said Carla, crossing her arms.
The hero smirked with him saying,"And I'm going to have politely disagree. We don't need him when you got me.". "What do you mean Zane?" said Wendy. Zane made his Z.E.R.O. watch appear in front of him and he said,"Hey Athena. I need you to decipher this text. I would ask Cole but he's not here along with the rest of Team Legion Zero." Carla and Wendy were confused as Carla said,"Um. He is talking to his watch. Is he insane?".
Athena's voice echoed,"The jury is still out on this one Carla. Zane's sanity has been like this since I've known him. I'll do my best to decipher and translate this for you. Just bring me in close range since I'm sure we don't want your new friends to be turned into one of your forms.". "Can do." said Zane, holding his arm in front of the scroll. "Get ready Zane and co. We're about to see what the Nirvit were hiding." said Athena.
The watch produced a emerald green ray of energy onto the scroll, going up and down. The two girls looked at the watch with interest. After several seconds of scanning, the watch projected a light purple holographic screen. "It's been translated and well, it's very beefy." said Athena. On the screen in front of them, a large amount of text appeared. Wendy looked at the screen with her completely in awe and Carla hummed in response. "Fascinating. Lets learn some history." said Zane.
The screen showed the wizard what the scroll wrote. "Light and Darkness. Two elements who are entwine with each other from when the world was born. One can not truly exist without the other. For whatever reason, that is something that will always be. When we try to destroy the darkness, the world want to make us pay for trying to achieve true unity. #ir##na is the key to this. Whatever will happen next is up for fate to decide.".
Zane crossed his arms as he said,"Even with the most advanced tech, I guess something still can't be identify.". "Perhaps we should take the scroll just in case Jean-Luc can do something that your very advanced watch cannot." said Carla, earning a nod from Zane. He was paying attention to the talking feline but was looking right at his watch. He was currently having a private chat with Athena aka multitasking.
Athena said,"I'm sure you want to keep the Nirvit's darkest secret hidden from those two. I know you too well Zane. They don't need to know about the evil that the Omniverse has seeped into this dimension. We were quite thorough in our research of Earthland. Left no stone unturned.". "I guess so but still." said Zane. Wendy gently grabbed the scroll and gave it to Carla. The three left the room and entered back into the main hallway.
Wendy and Zane looked around for their next destination. "Hey you gals. Lets go down Door number 6." said Zane, pointing to an entry way larger than the others. Carla looked up, blinking a few times before nodding. The trio began to walk straight toward the dark and gloomy path. Walking around for a few minutes, Zane and co encounter a large set of stairs. With a single look down, it was pitch black down there and practically like a void. The girl shivered in terror with Zane looking around.
Zane said,"Okay. There is no secret elevator so I guess we have to take the long way down so move with caution.". Taking their first steps down the stairs, Wendy and Zane cautiously began making their way down. The room was dead quiet with no other sounds beside their steps. "Remember the first time you went into a ruins Athena? Those were good times huh." said Zane. "I think we have a different definition on what makes good times." said Athena.
Stopping for a second, Wendy overtook him by a couple of steps before turned around. She and Carla looked at Zane with him being uncharacteristic silent. "Zane. What's wrong?" said Carla. As Wendy landed her foot on the next tile which sank slightly into the ground, Crisis Judgement went off. Zane moved his eyes down with him groaning. "Why can't there be one set of ancient ruins I go to where there isn't any booby traps?' said Zane. "Huh?" said the girls, looking confused.
A bright light flashed from the tile Wendy stepped on, exploding afterwards. Zane moved forward with him grabbing her, falling down a few feet before landing with a balance stance. He placed the girl right beside him and Carla with the trio turning around and they saw the stairs exploding behind them. Crisis Judgement went off as an explosion went off above them. Large pieces of rubble began to come down on them with Zane groaning in annoyance.
Zane looked at the girls with him saying,"Move right now you two!". Wendy squealed in response as the girls were following him. The trio were persisted in their escape for a short while but eventually two of them began to slow down as their limited stamina depleted. Wendy had less stamina than Carla so she was beginning to slow down. "Come on Wendy!" said Carla who had sprouted her wings a bit earlier.
Wendy panted as she tried running faster than she has ever ran before. "C..arla. I can't!" pleaded a panting Wendy. The explosion stairs eventually caught up to her as she missed the last step and began to fall down. Zane gasped as he shouted,"Wendy!". He jumped off the stairs and shouted,"Athena. I need a flier fast!". "Gotcha Zane!" said Athena, transforming Zane into Detective Form. He looked to be six feet tall with him being a human skeleton covered in pure light.
His skeleton is a purple color and looks to be made out of stone. His skeleton has several dark lines covering it. His face consist of one large blue eye and he can still talk despite not having a mouth. His light covers his body in a similar manner to skin with parts of his light working as spiky blond hair and gives him a thin yet muscular appearance. He wears a white long-sleeved shirt, black jeans, and brown dress shoes.
The area where his mouth and neck would be if he had them is covered by an dark green scarf. He's wearing the black robe as his other forms. "Athena my old friend. I kinda expected something like Dragonfly Form or Turbo Form but the overgrown light bulb? I didn't see that at all but I can make it work." said Zane. Diving down, he grunted as he went into the smoke. The light being looked up to see Wendy flying up to him and headbutting Zane in the area where his chest prosthetic would be.
Wendy began rubbing her head as she said,"Huh?". She looked to see Zane as he floated there with two wings of light protruding from his back and his arms crossed. "Zane? Is that you? I've never seeing a takeover like this before or a takeover in general." said Wendy. "I think I really hate my amazing luck sometimes. I'm fine but good job saving her Carla." said Zane with him looking to see Carla holding Wendy instead of him.
Carla nodded as she said,"You're very welcome Zane. I didn't expect you to jump after Wendy like you did. I thought you would have gone on without us but no.". "I'm a superhero. Saving people is kinda in my job description. It's cool how you judged me without even getting to know me. It's fine and totally not rude." said Zane. "So this is your magic huh Zane? What kind of creature did you take over? I've read about some of Earthland's creatures but nothing like this," said Carla.
Zane sighed as he said,"It isn't a takeover Carla. We really should have flown our way down to begin with but hey, live and learn.". Flying down, the trio eventually reach the bottom. Carla put Wendy down with several lacrimas lit up. It showed a long path with Zane turning back to his normal self. Carla looked at him in confusion with Zane pointing to his watch and the cat easily figured out how Zane did his magic.
The hero noticed this with him saying with a smile,"Wow. You're smarter than the average talking cat Carla. To give a simple explanation, this watch is how I perform Takeover magic but it's a bit more complicated than that. Like I told Wendy before we met up with you, I'll explain all after we finish this job. At least, things could have gotten much worse.". "You think?" said Carla. "Yeah. I mean they could have been ancient soldiers coming to life while the stairs were collapsing." said Zane.
Carla sighed as she turned to Wendy. "You've gotten to work on your stamina Wendy. After we finish this job, I'll be training you thoroughly to improve!" said Carla. The blue haired teen shrink in fear as she whimpered. "I'll offer up some tips Carla since I'm well known for turning people from weak to strong." said Zane, scaring Wendy more. After that quip, Zane walked down the path with the girls following him and Carla kept herself in the air using her wings.
The group eventually reached another dark room and upon them entering, a large lacrima shined in the middle of the room. The entire area illuminated the proximity. Ancient depictions were carved into the walls, filled with wonderful and amazing things. One of them stuck out mainly to Zane. "I think I found the most interesting one of this little art gallery ladies." said Zane with this attracting Carla and Wendy's attention.
The trio looked upon it being that it looked to be a large creature with eight spider like legs. Wendy gulped as she looked at its size alone and the creature wasn't alone. It was inside of a forest that was around the same size. Carla and Zane frowned at it. "So what is this girls? I mean it obviously means something." said Zane. "It appears to be some kind of ancient creature. This thing could have been alive when the Nirvit were or maybe a weapon." said Carla.
Zane nodded as he said,"Solid guessing there Carla but whatever this thing is or was, it caused a lot of destruction. Perhaps its a warning of what this things was or maybe how to summon it. I mean it looks cool due to its size alone. From my guess, it looks to be the size of about a skyscraper. Probably packing some serious firepower.". The girls looked at him with Zane saying,"I'm weird okay? This is normal for me.".
As the three continued to look at the picture, the ground was shaking around them. Zane and company looked around with them eventually seeing the giant lacrima. It was shining brightly as masses of stone began to morph around it. It formed a giant stone golem with a large red eye. It looked down at the three with smaller lacrimas lit the place up. The lacrima was completely covered in stones. "Trespassers. You're not welcome. Leave now." said the golem.
Zane smirked with him saying,"Sorry but I don't listen to overgrown land sculptures.". The golem rose an arm and swung it down on Zane. The hero stood there as it crashed into him. The ground was hit as well, shaking the room and rubble launched from the impact. Carla and Wendy covered their faces as dust clouds rose up. Zane phased his way through the arm and turned to them. "Yeah. I got a lot of tricks under my chainmail sleeves. So mind giving me a hand with Rocky?" said Zane.
Wendy looked at the golem with fear in her eyes and looked back at Carla. "Carla. Do you really think I can help him? I mean he's done so much for me and I've been nothing but a bother." said Wendy in a worried tone. Carla sighed but before she could do anything, Zane said,"Wendy! I need you and Carla's help asap! Your guild picked you for this job right? They got to have confidence in you and so do I so come on!".
Carla nodded as she said,"He's right. Come on!". She grabbed Wendy with the girl gulping. Zane saw the two coming toward him as Carla said,"So what's the plan Zane?". Zane looked at the golem with him noticing the size. It's quite tall mainly with its extremities. "Pretty simple actually. The people who made Rocky here weren't the brightest. I mean it looks big and scary but given the size of the room and Rocky, he is going to have a hard time...." said Zane.
The hero was slapped away thanks to the golem backhanding him into the air. "Wow. That was so cool Zane. Let me guess. It was part of your plan?" said Carla in a deadpanned tone. "Zane!" shouted Wendy. Zane landed on the ground with him saying,"It sure was Carla. You and Sly need to meet up since I feel like you two would be good pals. Anyway, I need you girls to hit Rocky while I need him distracted? K?".
The girls nodded as Zane smirked. "Perfecto. I always wanted to be the distraction. Hey Rocky! I'm over here!" said Zane. The golem turned around, charging at Zane. Zane easily dodging his attack and he said,"Hey ugly. Get a load of this!". He jumped into the air, transforming into Scarecrow Form. He grows to be eight feet tall being his skin is now dark gray. It also looks to be made out of a mixture of straw and vines. His body looks to be slim and muscular.
His head is in the shape of a pumpkin and a dark red color with brown roots that are protruding from his eyes. His face has two eyes holes with his bright orange eyes stick out. His mouth is stitched into a permanent grin but it opens up when he talks, revealing the fire inside. He has sharp metal spikes sticking out of his arms, legs, and neck. For clothing, he wears a black hat with an orange-red color pattern on the cuffs of his cloak and the hair band. It’s also tattered.
He wears black armor around both of his biceps and also covers his shoulders. He has metal nails for fingers being that they can be used for slicing or holding things. He wears black gloves and boots. He has a spiked chain whip with the end of the whip having a sickle like end which he uses as a powerful weapon. "As a speedy hedgehog once said in a video game, Teriaaaaa." said Zane with him having a British accent.
Zane threw his weapon into the golem's right eye, causing it to roar out in pain. The girls winced as Zane landed on the golem's shoulder and pulled his weapon from the eye. "I'm so sorry but if that hurts you, this attack will hurt you a lot more." said Zane. He grabbed his head and launched it toward the golem, causing a fiery explosion. This sent the golem to the ground with Zane's head easily regrowing on his body. "And to make sure you don't ruin the fun." said Zane.
The moss that had grown around the temple began to grow around the Golem's limbs, trapping him to the ground. "Okay Wendy my dear. He's all yours." said Zane. "Um...." stuttered Wendy. "Come on Wendy! Do you even know what dragons do?!" said Carla. "Be greedy drunk assholes?" said Zane with the girls looking at him. "Ignore him. Roar for catnip's sake!" said Carla. "So dumb question. Is there a god of catnip?" said Athena.
Zane cupped his chin with him saying,"Honestly, we'll find out after this.". "Okay!" said a hesitant Wendy. The girl began gathering a large amount of air in her mouth with Zane blinking. "Okay. I think I know what element of Dragon Slayer she is. I'm sure that she's a first generation since I don't sense a Dragon Slayer Lacrima in her. I'll just presume that because I really don't want to ask her if she hate her dragon parent." thought Zane.
Wendy closed her eyes with her saying,"Sky Dragon Roar!". Coming out of her mouth, a large quantity of air came out. It looked to form a tornado with Zane blinking. He looked down with him saying,"Oh right. I'm in Scarecrow Form. Rats." Carla smirked with her covering her face using her arm. The tornado flew out and crashed directly into the golem's torso. Parts of its body was cracking, revealing the lacrima. It was shining brilliantly like a diamond.
To keep himself for flying away, Zane slammed his nails into the golem and he shouted,"Do it one more time Wendy! Show Rocky your roar!". Carla looked at Zane with her noticing the Fairy Tail guild mark on his cloak. "I can't believe it. His name sounded familiar. He must know about those two. I need to ask him if he is the wizard I'm thinking about. And how didn't I noticed that mark on him?!" thought Carla.
Rocky twisted his neck, shocking the girls and its left eye was glowing. It fired a red laser at Zane with the scarecrow dodging it by turning into straw. "Okay. I didn't expect you to have a range attack but hey, you didn't expect me to do this." said Zane. He turned into Draco Form. He's twelve feet tall. He has elements of both Eastern and Western Mythology Dragon in terms of his appearance. His neck is somewhat long.
His body is covered in emerald green scales with part of him being a navy blue color. His navy blue scales are around his eyes, his fingers, and toes. His violet eyes are semicircular with black rims and blood red pupils. Its underbelly, middle of his abdomen, and the underside of its arm are a crimson red scales. His body has molten gold lines of energy flowing through his body. On his forehead, he has a gold claw shape marking on it. He has two long gold eyebrow like horns.
Zane has a streamlined tail that looks like the blade of a golden sword at the tip. His limbs are long and he has four average sized gray claws and one large claw. His feet only has three talons. He has a row of five tooth like spikes sprouts from the sides of his arms, back, and sides of his legs. His arms have sword like limbs protruding from them and are a blood red color. His mouth has sharper than normal teeth.
He used his left arm to slice the golem's head clear off. The golem's remaining eye dimmed and Zane flew into the air, next to Carla and Wendy who was stunned by Zane's appearance. "Just watch this ladies! Let me show you my dragon's roar!" said Zane. The dragon released a giant blizzard from his mouth, freezing the golem's limbs. After wiping away the frost from his mouth, Zane turned to Wendy who was quiet.
Zane smiled as he said,"Wendy. I'm going to need you to focus here. You and I are going to do a combo move. Excited?". "What?!" said Wendy. "Yeah. I think you should engulf yourself in your magic power and crash toward the lacrima! You'll do that and I'll do this." said Zane. He held out his right hand, forming a Zenith Sphere made out of crimson red cosmic energy. Wendy looked at Zane's attack with Carla saying,"Focus child!".
Wendy nodded with her covering herself in rapid winds, launching herself into the air after Carla let her go. "Okay! Sky Dragon Sword Horn!" said Wendy. Wendy ,looking like a drill, slammed herself into the large lacrima, causing it to start cracking. She began yelling as she poured more magic power into her attack. "Impressed aren't you Carla? We're not done yet! Zenith Sphere!" said Zane with him flying toward Wendy.
The hero slammed the sphere into the lacrima with Athena said,"Nice combo you two but I have an important question. Is it Wendy copying Natsu?". After Wendy finished her attack, Zane grabbed her and flew away. This is due to the golem exploding and not to get caught in the crossfire. After Zane placed her down, Wendy exhaled as she wiped off some dust from her dress. She looked back at the rubble that used to be Rocky. "Wow. I did something useful for once!" said Wendy.
Zane crossed his arms as he said,"Whatcha talking about Wendy?". Carla flew over to them with her loudly sighing. "This girl here is the biggest and clumsy scaredy cat I know. Her extremely shy demeanor made it hard for her to actually do a good job on mission." said Carla. "I guess so. I mean when we first met, she tripped over a pebble in an open field." said Zane. Wendy whimpered at the two as she said,"Carla! Zane! I'm not that clumsy!".
Carla frowned slightly before crossing her arms. "So tell me where you succeed on a job without my help." said Carla. Wendy was going to say something but she began to sulk. "Um...." said Wendy with Carla huffing. "Be nice Carla. I mean this is a successful mission." said Zane. "Fine. So shall we explore the ruins?" said Carla. Wendy and Zane nodded with the latter turning back to normal. As they looked around, Wendy noticed a small lever. "I wonder what this does." said Wendy, pulling it.
Part of the wall went up, revealing not a new car but another entrance. The three walked through as they were in another room where more lacrimas lit up. Wendy and Zane step forward with Carla floating behind them. "It seems that there is nothing in here." said Carla. "Technically, there is something in here. I mean we're in here and the lacrimas as well. Lets move on." said Zane, earning a glare from Carla.
Before they could leave, the wall closed down on them and they were trapped. Wendy shrieked slightly as she flinched in surprise. Carla gasp in surprise as she looked at the former exit. "Huh. A trap room. That's new." said Zane. A voice echoed through the room, causing them to look all around the vicinity. "Trespassers! You've ignored our warning. For your punishment, you'll be crushed to death!" said the voice.
The ceiling began come down on them slowly, causing Carla and Wendy to look up. "The ceiling is moving!" said Wendy. "To be fair, it's better than the sides and they're not spiked. We should try and find a switch or something. I mean I'll survive being a pancake but I doubt you two will." said Zane with him cracking his neck. The trio dispersed, with two of them running around the room and feel up the walls for anything that was hidden.
Zane was leaning against a wall with him looking at his nails. "Um. Should you do something to help them?" said Athena. "Meh. I can't do everything plus I got two backup plans if they can't find it." said Zane, shrugging. After thirty seconds of doing that, the ceiling was getting closer. "Time to go with Plan D." said Zane, turning into Draco Form. He walked toward a nearby wall and began digging his way through it.
The girls watched this with him saying,"So are you two ready for a ride?". "Um sure!" said Wendy as she grabbed Carla and ran onto Zane's back. "Now hang on to Air Zane. We go fast!" said Zane as he began dig upwards. The loud noised caused the girls to cover their ears and eyes. Zane kept pushing forward with Athena said,"So why didn't you pick Drill Form?". "Because I wanted and also Drill Form is too obvious." said Zane, earning a sigh from Athena.
Back at Jean-Luc. The archaeologist was looking at some reading that he found but he began to look outside from the window. "Huh. Was it alright for me to let those two go? One of them was a little girl after all but the other one was the Legion Void Knight." said Jean-Luc. The ground began to start violently shake and Jean-Luc panicked. He tried to keep everything steady and was trying to figure out what was going on. "What the deuce?! An tremor?!" said Jean-Luc.
Outside his building, the ground began to crack wide open and shake violently. The ground evenly exploded as Zane launched out into the air with the girls on his back. The girls cried out as they took a deep inhale of air. "Ah freedom. I mean I may like the earth but fresh air is nice right?" said Zane, turning to the girls. "Fresh air!" yelled the two. Zane blinked as he said,"I guess you two agree I think.".
Zane landed on the ground with the hero going onto his knees. He helped the two girls get off his back and onto the ground. Wendy was about to fall over but Zane caught her. He deactivated the form with him chuckling. "So sorry about that ladies. I just never get to use Draco Form for digging. It's usually Armadillo Form or Drill Form." said Zane. Wendy shook her head as she turned to him and said in a scolding tone,"Please tell us the next time you do that!".
The hero blinked with him saying,"Yeah. You trying to threaten me really doesn't work. I mean I see the stars around your head and I don't respect Prude Knight.". "Zane. Did you mean to burn Prude Knight? I know the answer but someone has to be Cole when he's not here." said Athena as Zane saw Wendy sitting down. "He moves so fast!" mumbled Wendy. Jean-Luc came running out with him saying,"What happened to you two/three?!".
Zane turned to him with him saying,"A typical expedition of ruins.". The two helped Carla and Wendy over into the building with them placing the girls down on the couch. After doing that, Jean-Luc and Zane sat down. "So how was the Abandoned Outpost go?!" said an excited Jean-Luc. "It was booby-trapped and this includes the forest as well." said Zane. The hero began to explain the structure of the ruins, golem, and so on.
He began explaining about the murals and scroll. "So we happened to get this old scroll in one of the rooms. Wendy, do you and Carla mind telling this part? I'm tired." said Zane. The duo of Carla and Wendy had fully recovered, joining in on the talk. The girl nodded as she took out the scroll and handled it to Jean-Luc. His eyes sparkled as he gazed upon it. "Wow. He's reminding me of Kaida except with a beard and a man." said Athena.
Zane smiled with him saying,"Thanks for adding the beard part.". "This is amazing! Thank you, all three of you! So what do you mean by murals?" said Jean-Luc. "Well before we fought Rocky aka the golem, we found some ancient markings. It showed some kind of large creature with eight legs. No idea about what it is but from what I guessed, it's the size of about a skyscraper and probably packing some serious firepower." said Zane.
Jean-Luc cupped his chin with him saying,"Interesting. I can't make a good judgement on something like that. I should have given you a camera! I'm such an idiot!". He slapped his forehead with Carla saying,"Um. Please don't do that.". "Got to agree with Carla here. I got a plan. I just need some paper and a pencil. You got them? If not, I got them on my person." said Zane. "I do. Why?" said Jean-Luc with him looking confused. Zane smirked with him saying,"Just trust me okay?".
The archaeologist rose an eyebrow with him lifting himself up from the seat. The man began to move around and found some large pieces of large scrap papers that was from a shelf. After taking out a spare pencil from a drawer, he returned back to the group and laid the pieces on the perimeter on the table. Zane held the pencil with him sketching on the paper. "Let me show you how good my memory is." said Zane. The hero began to retrace the creature from memory.
He made sure that the smallest of details were accounted for as he drew the large creature and the surrounding area. This surprised everyone in the room. After a while, Zane finished the sketch and it took up the entire page. After looking at it, Zane said while handing it to Jean-Luc nonchalantly,"And here it is. I may have gotten it wrong but with my eidetic memory, I'm good at remembering things good and bad. The bad memories stuck out so much more.".
Both Jean-Luc and Wendy's minds were blown by this. Carla flinched at the amount of detail that the Cross-Species put into it. She glared at Zane with her eyes twitched. "You remember all of that from just looking at once?" said Carla. "Yep. I sure did. I also had Athena take a picture of it just in case I forget something." said Zane. "You really are something Zane." said Carla, shaking her head back and forth.
Jean-Luc held up the drawing before looking at the trio. He placed the paper down with his body shaking for a moment. He grabbed Zane with the hero saying,"Before you start shaking me up and down, I should warn you that touching me is a very bad idea.". Jean-Luc let go as he said,"Zane. I think you're just amazing! Do you know what kind of discovery you made?! This is just the best thing in the entire world!".
The man was crying with Wendy looking at him in slight worry. "Don't worry Wendy. I've seen people cry like this before. I mean one was Crybaby Giant, the Coward, and I think Juvia. I don't know but it seems that this dimension tends to make people more emotional." said Zane. Jean-Luc picked up the paper once again and jumped up in celebration, cheering. After his little moment, the man regained his posture to catch his voice.
Jean-Luc said,"Well you there, this job is completed. While I may not be able to visit these ruins myself given my lack of combat, I can say without a doubt that your discovery will give me and my friends something to analyze and record! Thank you once again for your hard work you there!". He extended both of his hands with the trio accepted the gesture. Jean-Luc ran back into the deeper parts of his office.
Zane heard the man scurrying around back there with him chucking. "What's so funny?" said Wendy as she looked at the much older wizard in confusion. "Oh nothing. Just ignore the crazy guy." said Zane. Jean-Luc returned with a leather pouch and smiled at the two. He handed Wendy the pouch with him saying,"And here's your payment. Since the three of you complete it, I guess it seems only fair that the reward is divided equally.".
The hero nodded as he said,"That would be right but I want Carla and Wendy to have the whole thing.". "What?!" said Carla and Jean-Luc. "Well, yeah. I was just doing this to kill some time and work on my daughter's birthday song plus I recently got paid 5 million jewels." said Zane. "And stole a billion." said Athena. "Are you sure?" said Wendy. "Yep. You earned it Wendy." said Zane with him tussling her hair.
Wendy blushed as Carla said,"Zane! Hands off you brute!". "I thought I was your friend but now, I'm a brute! I'm hurt Carla! Shocked even!" said Zane in a dramatic tone, earning a giggle from Wendy when she saw Carla's stunned face. Thanking him, the group of three stood up and walked toward the exit of the building. After waving goodbye, they exit the building. We may see Jean-Luc again later in the series but don't expect it. It really depends on if I'm doing the Key of the Starry Sky Arc.
After walking for a few moments, they approached a crossroad. The sunset shine against them as they reached it. "So I hate to be that guy but I guess it's time to say so long, farewell." said Zane. "For now Zane. Who knows? We might collaborate with each other on another job." said Carla. "Yeah! I want to meet you again Zane and Sly too!" said Wendy with a gentle smile. "That's a good dream to have Wendy. Oh and I wanted to give you to this." said Zane.
He handed her a piece of paper with Wendy looking at it. "It's a spell I want to see you master or learn the next time we meet Wendy. It's also a short summary about me. I see great potential in you young Sky Sorceress. You can be a great wizard I know it." said Zane, smiling. Wendy blushed after hearing that. "Um I will Zane! And thanks!" said Wendy bowing. Carla smugly smiled at this with Zane heading down one path and the girls took another.
Athena looked at Zane with her saying,"So I have to ask. You like her as a friend right? I mean you are with Levy and while I like Wendy, she's kinda out of your league.". "As a friend yes. I mean you could see how much of a badass she could be right? Maybe on the same level as Juvia, Mira if she trains, and Stella." said Zane with Athena nodding. "I feel like you're ignoring Erza." said Athena as Zane shrugging. "Prude Knight ain't strong." said Zane.
Over with Carla and Wendy, the blue haired girl's cheeks were rosy as she skipped her way down the path. Carla looked at her best friend with a smug and mischievously face as well. "That's the first time I've ever completed a job with such results. I hope I see him again." said Wendy. The white cat tried and failed to hold a laugh in. Normally, a lady like herself wouldn't laugh but this was too funny for her. "Oh I see child. You like him don't you?" said Carla.
Wendy blushed crimson red with her falling over. She stood back up with her saying,"Carla! It isn't like that! I mean Zane is just a friend!". "Yeah right and I'm the queen of Fiore." said Carla with her rolling her eyes. Wendy turned around and crossed her arms with her ears went red. "You're so mean Carla!" said Wendy, pouting a bit. The cat snickered at her best friend's action as the two of them continued to walk in the sunset.
Zane looked at the sunset, staring right at the sun even though the sun's rays were in his eyes. "So how are you going to get back home? The train has clearly left and it's nearly twilight." said Athena with Zane nodding. "Right. I should probably get back home. I think I'm ready for Kaida's special day and the song is ready." said Zane. "If you need our help, we'll be there." said Athena. Zane turned into Turbo Form and flew off after saying,"Turbo!".
Back at the Fairy Tail guild hall construction side, Team Natsu was sitting on a table and talking with each other. Many other groups were there as well being that Kaida, Makarov, Mira, and Sly were at the counter. "It seems that the building's construction is going nicely." said Makarov, finishing off his beer. "Yep. I wish we had Zane's help since he's apparently worked for a construction company in the past but we're going to finish soon!" said Mira, wiping a cup.
Sly ,in her dragon form, smiled as she looked at the youngest Kaida who was looking around for something. "Kaida. I know that you're excited for the big day but I'm sure your father didn't hide your present here and you still got another handful of months before the big day." said Sly. "Kaida. We'll try to celebrate it but if we don't..." said Makarov. "Ignore Master Kaida. We'll make sure to celebrate your fifth birthday the Fairy Tail way!" said Mira. Kaida smiled at this.
Over with Team Natsu, Gray was yelling at the pink haired teen. "I can't believe that you blew up another town again flame brain!" said Gray. Team Natsu ,except Lucy, had gone to another town to handle bandits and like the last town, the town was destroyed by the trio of Erza, Gray, and Natsu. "Well, you froze some of the innocent people snow cone!" said Natsu. "Yeah but I didn't cause any actual destruction unlike you and Erza!" said Gray.
Natsu slammed his hands on the table in front of him as he said,"What did you say?!". "I know you heard me!" said Gray. The two were about to start fighting with Lucy closing her eyes and sighed at what that was going on. Erza ,while sipping on a strawberry banana slushie, back handed both boys in one fell swoop, causing them to spin around in the area comically. "Knock it off you two." said Erza with her voice screaming dominance, causing the others around her to shiver in fear.
The only two who didn't were Kaida and Sly since the latter had been around Zane on a bad day and the former wasn't paying attention to her. "Same old Erza. So where did Zane? I doubt this job was going to be too hard for him." said Lucy. "Aye!" said Happy, Erza took another sip of her slushie as the duo of Gray and Natsu recovered. "He's probably preparing for Kaida's big day. I mean he seems like the type." said Gray.
Their answer was given to them as the sound of a fast moving object was in the distance and like the dog he is, Natsu's eyes perked up at the familiar sound standing up. "I think you have your answer Gray." said Lucy. Zane ,in Turbo Form, flew down and entered the site. He stopped in front of the entrance way, turning back into Zane. He walked in with his headphones over his ears. Mira waved to him as Kaida smiled brightly. "Papa! You're back!" said Kaida.
She hugged him as two tendrils moved Zane's headphones off his ears. "Hey there Peanut. Sorry about being late. Had to stop by Blossom Village." said Zane, picking her up. "May I ask why?" said Sly. "To make sure that my Peanut's date of birth is correct. Had to go through the town's records and I would have been back here soon but the mayor's kids wanted to play." said Zane. Kaida, Sly, and Zane went over to Team Natsu's table with him saying,"Hey gang. Did you destroy another town?".
Lucy sulked at this as Natsu smiled and he said,"We did but Gray froze innocent people so unleash the Astral Clamp on him!". Zane placed Kaida down before using an Astral Clamp on Natsu, earning laughter from Gray and Happy. "So I guess that you have your plan ready for Kaida's birthday." said Erza. "I sure do Prude Knight and well, I met two interesting people while excavating the ruins of the Nirvit." said Zane.
Happy noticed this with him smiling like an evil smirk. "So someone seems pretty happy? Did you meet a pretty girl Zane?" said Happy in a playfully tone. "I guess so. She and her friend would be perfect for you and Hatchling rather than me." said Zane, shrugging. Erza's eyes widened when she heard how a girl would be perfect for Natsu. "What?" said Erza, eyes narrowing. "That she and her friend would be perfect for Happy and Natsu?" said Zane.
The scarlet haired woman stood up as she slammed her palms onto the table. The rest of their group backed away from the angry knight. "Explain right now Zane!" said Erza. "Um why? I mean Natsu can have female friends even though he and Lucy are together. I mean Levy lets me hang out with Cana even though she's been flirting with me since day one. I also don't need to tell you about her since you really don't have the right to control my life." said Zane.
Macao looked at Cana with her saying,"What? I thought he was a prime catch at the time. This was before I knew about his personality being well awful.". "I think I do since we're Nakama and you can't hide anything from your family!" yelled Erza with her eyes glowing brighter and her magic power coming out of her in a aura. "No you don't since I hide secrets from my family before and most of you aren't my Nakama! Get it through your armor Prude Knight!" yelled Zane.
The two were about to start having one of their arguments being that the duo of Mira and Juvia went over to them to stop Erza from getting seriously hurt. Natsu would have as well but he was unable to move thanks to the Astral Clamp "So Zane, who is the lucky girl who you think is perfect for Happy and Natsu? You are a really good matchmaker after all." said Mira with a smile on her face. "She's right Beloved and also don't fight him Erza. You'll die." said Juvia.
Zane sighed as he said,"Fine. If it gets Prude Knight off my case for right now, let me tell you about them. Their names are Carla and Wendy. Carla is a cat like Happy and Vance with Wendy being someone I see great potential. Natsu is the same being that he really needs to get over his motion sickness and actually focus on his magic to become a powerful wizard. Wendy is the same but she has a confidence issue. Carla is a part of that problem.".
Happy blinked as he said,"There's a female cat like me?!". "Yep. I think she's my favorite talking cat I've met in this dimension. I mean you and Vance are fine but Carla has an attitude. You may like her Sly and given your preferences, I approve of you two together." said Zane. After a while of this, Erza snapped and demanded Zane to take her to that. "Fuck off Prude Knight. I'm not taking you to her since at the moment, I don't know what guild she's apart of." said Zane.
The two were arguing being that the group watching them would have stopped them but they didn't want to be punished by Erza. He was the sacrificial lamb and Zane knew this. The hero made sure to get back at them for this. "So I'm guessing she's taking the older sister role too seriously. Perhaps too seriously." said Lucy, half-heartily laughing. "Yeah. I mean she does know that Zane is much older than her despite him looking to be the same age as her." said Sly.
Erza yelled,"You will take me to them right now!". "And here what I have to say that order." said Zane. He looked at her and pulled off a Astral Clamp on her, knocking her to the ground. "And don't try this shit on me again." said Zane, sipping some booze from his flask. "Aye!" said Happy. "You know that this is all your fault right Happy?" said Lucy. "Yep! And it was awesome! I mean Zane knocked out Erza again!" said Happy, causing Lucy to facepalm.
You may think this chapter is over but nope. This is just the first half of it. The next day, things were back to normal at the Fairy Tail Guildhall. Before Erza could make Zane do what she wanted him to do, Natsu stopped her. He was well aware of the supplementary lesson that Zane was going to get from her. It was a pretty scarring event in his opinion. He remembered how Erza taught Natsu how to read and write when they were kids, causing the Dragon Slayer to shiver at just the memory of it.
Erza may be well read but her penmanship is well hard to read. This isn't Fairy Legion Canon by the way but actually Canon. In Chapter 389, Frosch mentions that the reason why they was a delay in answering the letter Erza sent to Sting about Minerva was due to it being poorly written. This is me defending myself with hard facts from the manga. Despite Zane never showing Erza the respect that she thinks, she isn't one to mess with.
If you hurt her friends/family or just made her mad for whatever reason, you will suffer for it. Back at the site, Lucy sighs as she lays her face down on the counter. Mira looked at the sulking blonde with a smile on her face. "What's got you all in the dumps Lucy?" said Mira, worried a good deal for her friend. "Yeah. You look like me whenever I'm reminded about how Ultimate Showdown was a thing back in my dimension before it got canned." said Zane.
The Cross-Species sat nearby with him writing in his notebook. It's a black leather bound notebook with a gold dragon design on the cover. Lucy sighed as she held up her head using her arms on the counter top. Looking up, she tilted her head and was reminded about the last job she went on. "It's about the job I went on with Natsu in Lupinus. It was nuts." said Lucy. "Mind telling us about it? I mean I know since the whole mind reading thing but Mira can't." said Zane.
Lucy nodded as she said,"While Natsu is my boyfriend, he wouldn't stop burning everything. Gray froze the stuff Natsu missed. Then Erza... Argh! Don't get me started on what she did! The ones who didn't destroy the town were Happy, Stella, and Vance with Happy not doing anything!". "Yeah. I'm sure Zane or I should have warned you about that happening." said Mira. "Probably Mira mostly likely since I keep telling you the perfect way to earn some cash." said Zane.
The blonde looked at her friends with her saying,"The three of them alone were a bigger menace to that town more than the cult could ever be. We're paying for it out of our reward. At this rate, I won't be able to pay my rent this month!". "You could work here at the bar like I've been suggesting to you since I met you. This option is only available is because you wouldn't sell your gate keys on the black market and then steal them back." said Zane. "She did Zane." said Mira.
Zane blinked with him saying,"Seriously? Wow. I didn't expect you to actually take my advice. So how did it go?". "It was exhausting. How do you do it Mira?" said Lucy. "Lots of practice Lucy." said Mira. "Yeah. I often forget the service industry isn't for everyone and how hard it can be for a rich girl like yourself to do some actually hard labor." said Zane. "Really wish you told me that." said Lucy with Zane shrugging. "You didn't ask." said Zane.
Mira giggled at Lucy and Zane's typical conversations. Ever since they became friends, the two could talk with each other without resorting to violence aka Erza and Zane. "So Zane. What are you writing in there?" said Mira. "Oh. I'm working on some birthday's celebrations. Kaida is really looking forward to her birthday and I don't want to let her down. She should still enjoy her birthday unlike with me. I hate that day along with Christmas." said Zane.
Lucy blinked with her saying,"I know you hate your birthday because of your past but why do you hate Christmas?". "Let just say that there is a being who can't accept others not like the same thing and I'm one for not following the crowd. We fight every year since I was eighteen. You would think he would stop after I broke his entire body's bones but he's stubborn like me." said Zane. As their conversation was going on, the trio of Gray, Happy, and Natsu were playing pool.
Natsu smiled with him holding a pool stick and he said,"All right! I'm going first.". "You're just lucky that you won the coin toss flame brain." said Gray, sulking. "Don't be a sore loser Gray." said Happy with Gray rolling his eyes. Natsu aimed his pool stuck and with him some magic, he slammed the pole stick into the white ball and destroy the pool table along with most of the other balls. As the dust cleared, the white ball remained.
The fire dragon slayer sighed as he said,"Only six huh.". "That's Natsu for you!" said Happy. "Come on Natsu. You seriously need to get your eyes checked! It's only five! This one is only cracked!" said Gray, pointing to one of the balls remaining. "That isn't how the game is played!" said Lucy. "What are you talking about Luce? Zane taught us how to play this earlier." said Natsu. Lucy looked at Zane who said,"What? I was busy and taught them pool the Theron way. It works to an extent.".
Lucy groaned as she said,"As you can see, they only seem to cause destruction wherever they go and a certain someone makes their destruction even worse.". "Well, I just have the perfect job for you and the others. It's right up your alley Lucy and the best part of this job is that your team won't be able to destroy anything!" said Mira, making sure Lucy heard that part. "Really?!" said Lucy with her eyes flickering with job and slamming her hands on the wooden bar.
Zane chuckled with him saying,"Yeah and I wish you good luck with that.". "Oh and Zane will be coming with you." said Mira. "Um why?" said Zane. "Kaida wanted to go on a job with you and Sly as her birthday wish. She told me that in secret and I'm sure she'll be surprise if you offer to go on a job with her." said Mira. "Way to use my daughter as a reason to go on a job with Team Natsu Mira. I think you're an evil mastermind but sure. Lets go." said Zane, not trying to fight fate.
A bit later, the group of Team Natsu with Kaida, Sly, Stella, and Zane were back in Onibus and at Onibus Station. "Wow. We haven't been here since the whole Lullaby thing." said Lucy with her wearing a pale green shirt and light red pants. "Hey Natsu! We're here!" said Happy. "Why did we have to take a train when Zane can make portals?" groaned Natsu. "Because Zane hates helping you out with stuff and some other reason." said Stella, earning a nod from Gray.
Kaida looked at her father with her saying,"Um papa. What's the Lullaby incident?". Erza looked at the youngest member of the girl with her about to tell her about the whole thing but Kaida asks Zane not her. "Well Peanut. It's something that happened here in Onibus before we met. I battled a demon by the name of Lullaby who has a totally not intimidating name. I actually fought a dark guild here in Onibus while Team Natsu did nothing to help me. I'll tell you about it later Peanut." said Zane.
Erza looked at him as she said,"Because you didn't let us!". "Well, you were wasting away your magic in the magic mobile and I promise Natsu to not let you die plus I don't like you." said Zane with the two glaring at each other. "Wow. These two are like Gray and Natsu except more violent and really petty on Erza's end." said Happy. This comment earned him a glare from Erza. "So let me get this right. Our job is simply using our magic to draw a crowd to some rundown theater?" said Gray.
The group walked through the city with Lucy saying,"Yep. Natsu will impress the crowd with his fire breathing, you and Stella will make amazing sculptures out of ice and earth respectively, and Erza'll requip into different armors. Then I'll have Lyra sing some song that'll melt their hearts. People will come from miles around.". "That sounds like a great idea Lucy." said Stella. "Not really Stella. I mean Lyra's music is just the worst." said Zane.
Sly sighed as she said,"You're the only person in the Omniverse to think that Zane. Most of your music has a guitar in it. You got a strong bias.". "Meh. I just hope it's a musical." said Zane. "Do you like musicals Zane?" said Gray. "Yep Gray. I love music since it's something that all beings in the Omniverse can connect with since it can touch their hearts if the singer decides to let out what they are feeling at the time. Just look at my song Forever Hero." said Zane.
Gray looked at Zane with Sly saying,"I'll show you guys. Just to warn you now. The lyrics really suck but it sounds good and that's all that matters to Zane.". "Okay then. So what is Erza doing?" said Stella. The group looked at Erza who was voice training/vocalizing and was pulling her cart. "I think we should just ignore her since we're not going to be acting in the play right Lucy?" said Zane. "You are right! You do mind using your transformations to help out right?" said Lucy.
Zane shook his head as he said,"Nope. I think Kaida is ready to use her magic since I think she's ready to shine like the star she is.". Kaida smiled at the praise she got from her father with Lucy saying,"Should have expected that but whatever. If I ever finish my novel, I'm sure it'll be a great play. This is my big chance to learn all I can about the stage!". "Lucy. Instead of focusing on the future, focus on finishing your book." said Zane.
Lucy looked at him with him saying,"As a wise woman said. You should focus on what you want to do with your life and have complete focus to it.". "Didn't Rae tell you that?" said Sly. "Yeah and she's one of the wisest women I know. Was about to keep me in line mostly." said Zane. A bit later, the group arrived at the Onibus theater. It has six large pillars. From what I can tell, it's a Proscenium style theater. I saw this because of what's inside. Like with fashion and music, I don't know theaters.
Everyone ,except Sly and Zane, looked at the building in awe. "It's pretty classy right you guys?" said Happy. "Meh. I've seen better." said Sly. "And I've performed in better." said Zane. "I really don't think you two should talk since you're bias." said Stella. "Lets go!" said Lucy "Excuse me." said a voice as this caught everyone's attention. They turned to see a strange looking man man peeking out of the entrance with him having a rather strange appearance.
This man is Rabian, the theater chairman of Scheherazade theater and this man was married. Rabian has short, purplish hair that goes up to two very small, round "ponytails" at the top of his head. It's slightly puffed up at the center. He has a small, curvy mustache above his mouth. He has a seemingly long face with small, beady black eyes, a tiny rectangular nose and an equally small mouth. The man is wearing a red/orange suit.
It has pink cuffs, yellow buttons on the shoulder blades, navy blue trimmings and two "shirt tails" with a white shirt underneath and a navy blue bowtie. His bottoms are dark green pants and his shoes are brown, pointed ones. "Put your hands up!" said Zane, making his pistol Rogue Six-Shooter appear. This revolver is a a black ,with a white flame like pattern, custom revolver/colt .45 acp/colt m1911 pistol with a distinct skull and crossbones mark on the grip. It has a six-chambered hexagonal cylinder.
The gun was aimed at Rabian, forcing him to hold his hands up. "I'm not here to hurt you! You guys are with Fairy Tail right? If you are, I thank all of you for coming on such short notice. I'm grateful for your assistance." said Rabian. "We are you creep. So why should we trust you? I mean you clearly have a pedostache going on. I have a little girl here so I'm keeping my gun on you." said Zane, causing Gray and Natsu to sweatdropped.
Erza glared right at Zane with her saying,"Seriously?! That's your reason?! Put the gun away right now!". "I think you should be used to that kind of logic by now Erza." said Stella, earning a nod from Kaida and Sly. "Never Prude Knight!" said Zane. "Ignore him sir. We're here to help out with the staging so you can leave everything to us." said Lucy. "Well, we have a bit of a problem." said Rabian, earning a confused look from the group.
Backstage inside of the theater, Lucy shouted,"What?! All of the actors just walked out on you! What jerks!". "I have to agree with your cast leaving you here. I mean you played Romeo and Juliet. The worst romance in the Omniverse." said Zane, with his gun still aimed at Rabian and his comment earned a punch from Sly. "Thank you so very much!" said Rabian with him peeking out behind a curtain in the same matter as before. "Why are you thanking us?" said Happy.
Rabian sighed as he said,"The reputation of our place has gotten worse and worse because of my last few shows been complete and utter failures. The reviews are just the worst being that the actors are too embarrassed to perform in another one of my shows. So they left me to die a cold, lonely death just like my wife! I won't give up on my dream! The theater is the way I live but this was my last chance to shine! I can never be redeem myself! Thank you very much!".
Gray sighed as he said,"So are all actors this dramatic?". "Pretty much." said Sly. "Since I have no actors to perform, I had to cancel the show. Sorry for making me waste your time! Thank you very much!" said Rabian. "So has he said thank you very much after every sentence?" said Stella. "I think so." said Kaida. "You know what they say, the show must go on." said Erza. "Huh?" said the rest of the Fairies, turning to Erza.
Erza smiled as she said,"Have no fear good sir. We shall perform in your play!". As she said this, her eyes turned into stars and sakura blossom went around her. "Um. She's glowing right?!" said Stella as Gray and Lucy nodded. Erza began humming as Happy said,"And that's some warm up you got going on there!". "Your play is screwed. It isn't going to be legitimate the-a-ter unlike Dr. Zaius." said Zane with him humming a tune that caused Sly to sigh.
Lucy smiled as she said,"Now that I think about it. This sounds like it could be fun right?". "Really Luce?" said Natsu. "Yeah. I could be a princess!" said Lucy as Natsu blushed while he imagined her as a princesses. "Weren't you a princess?" said Kaida. "Ignore them sir. We're not going to let your dream die." said Stella as she turned to Rabian. "Aye!" said Happy. "I didn't agree to this. Would you people stop volunteering me?! I hate that remember?" said Zane.
Sly sighed as she said,"How about you perform the music for the play? I'm sure Kaida would like to hear your amazing singing right sweetie?". Kaida rapidly nodded with Zane sighing being that he couldn't refuse his daughter. "Sure. but I get to pick the first song okay?" said Zane. Rabian got teary eye for a second with him saying,"Really?". He turned away from them as he said,"I'll give you amateurs a try.". "So why didn't you say thank you very much this time?" said Gray.
The team had a week to prepare for the opening. Erza ,with her in a blue tracksuit, took her role very seriously as she began to memorize her lines as Frederick the Prince. "Wow. I had no idea Erza was such a good actress!" said Lucy in a pink jumpsuit. "It's like she was made for this!" said Happy in a yellow jumpsuit. "So why is she playing a man papa?" said Kaida with her not wearing a jumpsuit unlike the rest of her group except for Sly.
She was drawing up pictures for some flyers that Happy and Sly were going to deliver once she was done with them. Zane ,who was tuning up Yamata, shrugged as he was wearing a black tracksuit with emerald green flame like designs. "No clue Peanut. I kinda hope she gets stage fright. I got the Big Laugh on stand by when that happens." said Zane. "Man. We can't let her steal the show! Right you guys?" said Natsu as he was cutting some wood.
Gray was wearing the top part of a blue and white tracksuit, Natsu was wearing a red tracksuit, and Stella wore a gold one. "Yeah." said Gray. "You do know that on the stage, we're a team right?" said Stella. "Ignore them Stella. So are you ready to go Happy?" said Sly, noticing that Kaida had finished up the fliers. "Aye ma'am!" said Happy. The duo of Happy and Sly began flying around the town and others delivering flyers for the upcoming "Fredrick and Yanderica".
You may wondering why the name Yanderica came from but I have no idea. "From that point on and whenever we weren't rehearsing, we were handing out fliers to anyone who would take on and work tirelessly to finish the set. Like with the guild hall, Zane didn't help us with that but he did help us memorizing all of the lines we had to do. He's such a sadist. Everyone is so excited for the upcoming performance so we enjoyed every moment of it." said Lucy's voice.
Some amount of time later, Rabian approached the group as seven of them were memorizing their roles. Zane would have but he had the role of narrator "I hate to interrupt but you have some fans who want to see you." said Rabian. "We have fans?" said the group except Zane. "I have fans and hopefully, he shows up." said Zane. Everyone left the building being that Makarov waved to them as a crowd joined up with him.
Unlike with the anime, this is going to change since Zane is here and this is my story. The crowd consisted of Bob, Bora, Ira, Juvia, Levy, Makarov, Mira, the Pirate captain from the Galuna Island Arc, and Yajima. You may wonder why I excluded some of them. I had to pick some characters to cut and the ones missing are the first who came to mind. I also has a character whose appearance will shock you I hope. "Whoa! What are all of you guys doing here?!" said Lucy.
Mira smiled as she said,"We wouldn't miss your big debut! Now break a leg!". "Um. I think that's a bad thing to say Mira." said Juvia. "Actually, it's good luck in theater terms." said Levy. "That makes no sense." said Juvia. "It's been too long since I've last seen a play." said Makarov. "Thanks for the invite Macky." said Yajima. "Hey there boys. Did you miss little old me?" said Bob, causing the duo of Gray and Natsu to shiver in place.
Ira looked at him with him saying,"Um Master Bob. You know that you're scared two of them right? I mean it's funny though.". "So the fake Salamander is here? Why?" said Lucy, talking to Bora. Due to her ex being here, Juvia was hiding behind Levy. "So how are things going for Brook?" said Natsu. "It's Bora! After you gave me a harsh lesson with your blazing fists, I decided to change my ways and give up my life of being a model scout." said Bora.
Upon seeing Bora, Zane began walking toward him. "You don't seriously think anyone's buying that right?" said Lucy. "I'm sure you would have your doubts but I'm being completely honest." said Bora with him smiling. "She thought that you were doing dirty things with them!" said Happy. "Um. You guys do know he's lying through his teeth right?" said Sly. The trio of Happy, Lucy, and Natsu looked at Sly with her saying,"It's super obvious with scum like him and they must be punished.".
Before Bora could say anything, he heard,"This is for hurting those innocent women scumbag and Juvia bastard!". Bora was kicked in the nuts hard, sending him flying away. Zane stood there with Ira saying,"Oh wow. You sent him flying. Nice.". "Thanks but people who treat women like that should burn in hell or some other bad place like Jersey." said Zane. "Dude. You seriously pick Jersey of all places in the Omniverse? I mean just wow." said a familiar voice to Sly and Zane.
The entire group looked to see a single person standing there with Zane smiling. "Sorry but Jersey in any dimension is the worst. I mean Jersey Shore? It makes the shitshow Ultimate Showdown look like a masterpiece." said Zane. This person is Danny Malone. Danny is 6 foot 2 now in Zero but he can change his height so he's 6 foot. He had short brown hair, azure blue eyes, and freckles that he got from his mother.
He looks to have a muscular, attractive figure. He's wearing a black open jacket with a hood. It has white circuitry board lines on the arms and sides of the jacket. He's wearing a gray v-neck t-shirt with his superhero logo in the center. It's his signature gear with a large drill head pointing downward in the center of the gear. He's wearing black jeans with a similar white circuitry board pattern on it. He wears his gray sneakers and a pair of sunglasses resting on his shirt.
Makarov looked at this with him saying,"Sly or Zane. Who is this?". He could tell that Danny was an old friend of Sly and Zane. "Wow man. I'm actually kinda hurt that you never told your new friends about me." said Danny, smirking. "You know Zane. He just loves to surprise people. It's good to see you again Danny." said Sly, hugging Danny. "Same Sly. My name is Danny Malone aka Morph. Nice to meet you." said Danny, returning the hug of his dragon friend.
Gray's eyes widened as he said,"Wait. You're Danny? Zane told me about you and I've seen him kicking your ass.". "Yep and what is he talking about bro?" said Danny. "Ignore him. I mean he's half naked." said Zane. Gray was in his boxers with Danny shrugging. "Really thought you were joking about him being a stripper in your report." said Danny. "I wasn't for once in my life." said Zane, shaking his head in annoyance.
As Zane introduced his alternative dimension friend to the others, the Pirate captain was talking to Erza. "I'll be out there rooting for you me beauty!" said the captain. "Thank you for coming all this way." said Erza, slamming him into her breastplate. "Um Zane. Is that?" said Danny. "That's normal for Prude Knight." said Zane. "Ah and he looks fine with it. This place is weird." said Danny, pointing to the pirate's hearts in his eyes. "So you are from another dimension like Sly and Zane?" said Stella.
Danny nodded as he said,"Yep. I'm part of Zane's team known as Team Maelstrom and while I may look human, I'm not.". "What do you mean by that?" said Lucy. "I'm a homo supremus or an evolved human/metahuman. Thanks to my sister, I discovered that I'm immortal so I can make sure Zane doesn't get himself killed protecting people." said Danny. "Which happened a lot even now." said Sly with Zane rolling his eyes. "Uh. I don't get it." said Natsu.
Zane shrugged as he said,"Neither does Danny. So did you bring the goods?". "Of course bro." said Danny. He held out his hands, making some food appear. It's Quarto Queso Dos Fritos from Psych and here's the recipe in video and text form. "Nice." said Zane. "Um. What is that?" said Lucy. "It's Quarto Queso Dos Fritos. One of the best foods in the Omniverse." said Danny. "Our tastebuds are going to be on the flavor train." said Zane, taking one and smiling.
As this was going on, Lucy sat on the stairs and sighed. "You guys will do great!" said the group from Earthland. "Thanks!" said the group except Kaida, Lucy, and Zane. "I'm beat and the curtain hasn't even gone up yet." groaned Lucy. "But Lucy, we have amazing foods to eat," said Kaida, enjoying a Quarto Queso Dos Fritos. "Yep. You're definitely Zane's kid. Welcome to the best and weirdest family in the Omniverse." said Danny, smiling at his latest niece.
In due time, it was time to start the show. The seats of the theater were filled in as people from all over Fiore gathered to view the show. "May I have your attention please?" said the PA. "Oh wow. It has been so long since we've had a sold house! Thank you so very much!" said Rabian. "Got to agree with you there pedo." said Zane. "So why did you have to reject Lyra again?" said Lucy with her in a pink dress.
The two were looking out to view the audience. Zane shrugged as he said with him getting Yamata ready,"My bias are strong especially my music ones.". "Oh whatever. So I bet you're scared of singing in front of an audience this big before," said Lucy. "Not really Lucy. Zane has performed in front of a large crowd before and doesn't have stage fright." said Sly, floating over to them. "And after this, I'll be throwing rotten fruits and veggies at you afterwards." said Zane.
Gray entered the back with him wearing a blue suit and a cape. Erza and Stella were also with them being that the latter was wearing her normal clothes. Kaida, Sly, and Stella were stage hands. Erza is wearing a beige coat with a sword onto her hip. The redhaired knight styled her hair to resemble a boy as she wore a turquoise cape. "Well, I wish you all good luck. I'm up first and get ready to have your minds blown or Prude Knight. You look great as a man rather than a woman." said Zane.
The lights dimmed and eventually turned off. The curtains unravel as the crowd heard,"Ladies and gentleman! I hope you're ready to rock! Hit it!". Yep. This is where the first song of Fairy Legion will be and it's my favorite ending theme in all of Anime. It's Sugar Song and Bitter Step by the band Union Square Garden. You may noticed all of the links down at the end of the post. I wanted to make sure that you can buy the official release since I don't own the song whatsoever.
I made sure that the lyrics were there so you can tell where I got. I also put some videos there so you can experience it for yourself. Lets begin shall well and how Zane is going to be singing it is the same way the last song appeared in Zero Episode 133. The song slowly began with the drums or guitar switching back and forth. It got the crowd interested since they never heard a song like this before and well, it got them interesting.
The two instruments then began playing together in unison. When this happened, the stage was instantly covered in smoke. Danny smiled as he said,"Rock on bro.". As the smoke cleared from the stage, a drummer ,Sivarth in his human form, and guitarist ,Kane in his human form, appeared with them playing their instrument. Kane's guitar looks to be a heavily modified ESP Michael Paget V. It's a white color, reminding people of snow.
The front of the guitar having a pattern covering a battle between fire and ice clashing. The body is in the shape of a five pointed star with five prongs and pointed edges that have a v-shape. The strings are a gold color. Sivarth's drums looks to be a standard rock drum kit. This consisted of one hanging tom, a splash cymbal, ride cymbal, bass drum, floor tom, and snare drum. There are five drums in total with all of them made of crimson red energy.
The drum skin has a noticeable molten gold and steel gray LZ with the L being Molten Gold and the Z being steel gray. The body of each drum had a noticeable turquoise finish to it. The curtain to the stage was still down with Zane standing in the center of Kane and Sivarth. The Cross Species had a headset on the right side of his face, with a microphone over his cheek and mouth. He took a deep breath as he began to sing.
I’ve gotten used to this super-natural madness.
That somehow I believe is the way my life should be.
Shaken up, in a whirl, on this rambling roller coaster.
But what is it that I can’t take my eyes off?
Swallowed up by the fundamentals of equality.
I feel as though my heart’s starting to ramble on and on.
All the hate, all the love, all for you - so try to speak up.
‘Cause otherwise you’re no more than a doll.
As Zane was singing, he began dancing by moving his body from left to right. The people of the crowd who knew him ,except for the trio of Danny, Kaida, and Sly, were stunned by this. They could feel the raw emotion in his voice and the music. It made them want to dance along to the beat.
At night, the city streets.
Crowds of people on their feet.
Some are happy with the world they know.
While others struggle all alone.
The difference in their lives.
Like music notes they dance across the stave.
Like melody and rhythm singing.
Marmalade jelly & sugar song.
Peanut coat & a bitter step.
It’s quite a treat, so bittersweet, my head begins to spin around.
Keep on partying on and on.
Take it down from South to West.
The world will sing aloud.
Because tonight is going down in history!
I feel so damn good - take my hand, reflect the light up!
As the drum and guitars continued on, Zane stopped singing for a moment with his dancing getting more intense as the song's tempo was only increasing.
I’m so unsettled by statistics and reality.
Will the music that I make.
Be just a tool for them to take?
Turn around, if you please - just don’t turn your back to face me.
Although I guess that’s not enough to plead my case.
After we celebrate.
When the music fades away.
Some are smiling still from ear to ear.
While others break down into tears.
They’re both one and the same.
But I can’t help thinking it doesn’t make much sense.
To put it into words how all their.
favorite thing is a sugar song.
Their happiness is a bitter step.
So shout it out aloud ‘cause we won’t let our lives end over there.
Even if you regret it all, each and every day will end.
So listen to the forecast in your head predict the weather till it’s done!
As Kane began strumming on the guitar and Sivarth slammed down on the drums, Zane's dancing became more intense due to him performing several intense dancing moves at once. This is due to his cloning ability. As this went on, the crowd getting more hyped up by the second. It eventually stopped and letting everyone catch their breath with Zane standing in the center of the stage.
Some day, even if the madness stops its breathing.
Some day, if the reasoning has lost all its meaning.
Feeling song and step.
And listen to the way our voices echo on.
‘Cause that’s the proof that shows that we exist here in this moment shout it out -
Q.E.D.!
After that, Zane's body glowed with him changing his outfit. He's wearing a black fedora that had a gray ribbon around it. He wears a white dress shirt ,which he usually has un-tucked, a button up, and made of silk, with a simple black tie. It had a steel gray spider-web pattern to it and it looked well done. He wears a black ,pinstripe, waistcoat over his shirt with a black feathered and spiked hood. He wears this with black pants and black metallic looking dress shoes, that can take a hit. He wears black fingerless gloves. The only accessory he had on was the headset.
Marmalade jelly & sugar song.
Peanut coat & a bitter step.
So shout it out aloud, why we must live our lives all over there.
Let’s be proud of how far we’ve come.
North-North East back where we began.
The world will sing aloud, so keep it up - nothing can stop us now!
Marmalade jelly & sugar song.
Peanut coat & a bitter step.
It’s quite a treat, so bittersweet, my head begin to spin around
Keep on partying on and on.
Take it down from South to West.
The world will sing aloud.
Because tonight is going down in history!
I feel so damn good, take my hand, reflect the light up!
Goes on, and on, it repeats, so let go of work and have fun!
Whoah - oh, one more time, give your all! No, no-no-no, no, no-no-no
We got happiness, phrase and the melodies!
As the song finished, Zane posed. He tipped his hat down, his eyes were glowing molten gold, and his smile was made present on his face. The crowd looked at him with Zane saying while panting a bit,"And that's real music bitches! Rock on!". The crowd cheered loudly for him as Zane bowed to them. "Thank you all so very much." said Zane, mimicking Rabian. Zane walked backstage with him ignoring the slack jaw stares from Team Natsu, Rabian, and Stella.
Sly smiled as she said,"Nice job Zane but for you and the feelings you project when you sing Sugar Song, it's amazing.". "You were awesome papa!" said Kaida. Zane nodded as he said with a big smile,"Thanks Peanut. So now, do you know why I rejected Lyra Lucy?". Lucy nodded as Zane sat down on a stump and strummed his guitar. "You're so very lucky I love my daughter. Now get ready boys and girls. I'm about to start the play." said Zane with Team Natsu rushing into position.
After calming down from Zane's song, the crowd heard Zane's voice and guitar once again as the curtain rose to reveal him singing. "A long time ago, there was the lonely prince. The reason for his loneliness was due to the fact that he was such a prude and a totally stricker for rules even though he can dress like a whole. Me thinks that if he pull that stick out of his ass, he would have a woman to love." sung Zane.
A couple members of the crowd chuckled at Zane's jokes with Erza ,aka the prince, glaring at him from behind the stage. From the balcony, Makarov and Mira watched with Danny, Levy, and Yajima with a smile on their face. "His voice is amazing." said Yajima. "Simply the full package he is." said Bob. "So is he?" said Danny, smirking as Levy blushed. "In a distant land and so very far away, the prudish prince decided to find love there since no one would date him in his kingdom." sung Zane.
Erza ,now on stage, glared at him with the lights above her shined, striking a pose. "You're a vision me beauty!" said the pirate. "No he is not! If you think, you're clearly insane in the membrane. The prudish prince learned about a princess taken by a dragon since even a dragon need to find love in this Omniverse." sung Zane. Erza hesitantly tried to act out her role, fidgeting as her body was trembling slightly. Gray and the others looked at her in worry. "Uh oh. We're doomed." said Gray.
Lucy whispered,"She's totally frozen out there!". "I thought she had gotten over her mean case of stage fright." said Natsu. "Which means..." said Sly. "It seems that the prudish prince can't act under pressure. And for some strange reason, his kingdom respect him even though he can't find a date. I think it's time to play some music." sung Zane. As Erza was trying to perform her lines, she heard a song coming from Zane. It's the Big Laugh.
Erza stuttered out,"Hear ye! Hear... Oh.... My... Name is Fredrick! I'm a princess! I came here to save the prince!". "Wow. This guy is more stiff than wood." said Bora in the crowd. "She's just doing this to make us things she's nervous. She's doing some sort of acting technique." said Ira. "You're a wizard saint how?" said Bora. "And with the power...." said Erza. "Me thinks that the prince is a bit confused in the head. This is due to him being such a tight ass!" sung Zane, earning a couple of laughs
Lucy held the script with her saying,"Oh no. She skipped way ahead! That line's from a completely different scene.". "Wow. Erza is so scared out there and I don't think she's breathing!" said Happy. "I think Zane is having too much fun out there." said Stella. "I wield the power because I have thirty swords!" said Erza. As she said that, she made several swords appear out of thin air and threw them into the crowd, scaring them. "You're doing great my beauty!" said the pirate.
Danny chuckled with him saying,"Yep. This is totally worth the trip and here Zane thought that the only enjoyment he would get is throwing rotten food at Prude Knight. Singing mockery is totally him to the letter.". "I didn't know that the theater was such a dangerous place." said Yajima. "Isn't this exciting everyone?" said Mira. "I guess but Macky has a very different opinion." said Bob, noticing the stunned look on his face. "She's falling apart out there you guys!" said Happy. "But papa isn't!" said Kaida.
Zane smiled as he sang,"Don't worry folks. His swords aren't real just like his sex appeal with the ladies especially the pink haired ones.". "We really should do something but I'm really enjoying Zane burning Erza." said Stella. "We'll just have to improvise around her and doing our best to save the show!" said Lucy. "That sounds like a bad idea Triple B!" sang Zane. "And why can't I go on stage again?!" said Natsu as Lucy looked at him. "Never mind." said Natsu.
Lucy began her role as she is lowered by a rope. Tied to it, the light shined upon her as she said,"Oh my beloved Prince Frederick! Please save me! I'm being held in the terrible clutches of the fiendish brute Sienhart!". "Don't you mean Sieghart? Or Shinra? Or Genesis? Or Justice?" sang Zane. This burn may not make sense but look at this picture. Hiro's laziness at its finest. Expect a full Hero's rant after the manga is finished. "So who is this Sienhart guy?" said Bora.
Ira shrugged as he said,"Honestly, I thought his name was Shinra.". Gray walked on stage as the light hovered on him. "I'm the great Julius and if you want to save the princess, you'll have to cross blades with me!" said Gray. "I know what you're thinking folks. Who the hell is the guy? And what happened to Sieggy? Me thinks that the play was written by Vulcans!" sung Zane. "Wow. This play is actually the worst." said Levy. "At least, Zane's comments are keep me interested." said Danny.
Erza stuttered out,"I challenge you....". "Come on Prude Knight. Do this before you grow gray hairs and falls out of your head." sung Zane. Gray looked at Erza's blue face with him saying,"And I think she's gone!". "Wait. I have an idea. Open! Gate of the Clock Constellation, Horologium!" said Lucy. The grandfather gcock appeared with Erza inside of it. "We'll fight! A duel even! says the prince in a timid tone." said Horologium.
The crowd was confused by this as Gray whispered,"So what are you thinking Lucy?!". "I think the clock is here because the prince is pretty bad at this so the clock decided to help out. Me thinks if Prince Fredrick passes out before he duels against the villain. He would be quite the crappy prince am I right?" sung Zane. "How good for you to come out and help out the prince. The brave prince is in urgent need of a moment's rest." said Lucy with a smile.
Zane rolled his eyes as he sung,"Or in other words, the princes sucks at his job.". Erza took a deep breath and regained her confidence. "Finally caught my breath. I'm back." said Erza, stepping out of the clock. She glared at Zane with her saying,"And after this, I'm killing the bard.". Gray and Lucy looked at Zane who sung,"No way in hell Prude Knight!". "Whatever Prince Fredrick. You're going down! Meet my Ice Make: Ice Sword!" said Gray.
A sword made out of ice appeared in Gray's hand. Upon seeing the ice blade, Erza's fear returned and a ring of swords appeared. "You're going down by my ten swords!" said Erza. Gray tried to run out but couldn't. He was pierced by them, sending him flying. "Wow. This prince sucks more than Prude Knight here. So what will happen here next?" sung Zane. "This play may suck but I'm digging Zane's comments. They're hilarious!" said Ira, earning a confused look from Bora.
Lucy was let down from the ropes with her saying,"Prince Fredrick! Thank you for saving me! How can I ever thank you?". Erza got on a knee with her saying,"Please Lady Yanderica. Let's get married and have many children! I'm thinking seventy!". "Oh wow Prince. You really suck at talking to the ladies and asking them out am I right folks? Bow chicka wow wow." sung Zane, earning a couple of yes along with a couple of I'm confused from the crowd.
Makarov said,"So these plays today are so surreal huh?". "I'm really enjoying it. The Void Knight's comments are quite interesting. Keeps you invested no?" said Yajima. "Me too. They're all so good mainly Zaney." said Mira. "Wow. Someone other than Rae who could enjoy Zane's very unique sense of humor exist." said Danny. "Rae? Whose that?" said Levy. "I'll tell you after this shit show ends with some sort of catastrophe happening I'm sure." said Danny.
Gray returned as he said,"Your happiness will not happen today or ever Prince Fredrick!". "Hey look Julius is back after his crushing defeat." said a girl. "Death awaits you! Now come forth and burn them all to hell itself my dragon!" said Gray. The stage began to shake as Horlogium appeared. "It's my time to shine!" said Natsu. Natsu appeared on stage in a costume made of green barrels and a dragon's head entered.
This unique costume was behind held up by Happy and Zane's telekinesis. Natsu was breathing fire everywhere with Happy struggling to hold on. "I'm the powerful guard dragon! Fear my wrath!" yelled Natsu. "This is so awesome!" yelled Bora and Ira. "Lets's destroy this beast together my sworn rival!" said Gray. "Indeed!" said Erza. "Oh boy. These two princes are dumber than a bag of rocks am I right everybody?" sung Zane.
Levy blinked as she said,"Didn't Gray summon it?". "Honestly, I have no clue. I would just turn off your brain and relax." said Danny. "I can take care of the dragon! You two get to safety!" said Lucy as Zane smiled. "So she's going to slay it now?" said Mira. "Thanks princess! We owe you!" said Erza. "Later!" said Gray. "Oh wow. Our princes everyone. What a bunch of jokers. Perhaps Prince Frederick plays for the other team." sung Zane.
Bob smiled with him saying,"Ah. I didn't think Gray liked boys. Good for him.". Crisis Judgement went off as Zane stood up. "And now, I must leave since this play is the worst. Rock and roll folks plus tip your waitress!" said Zane. He transformed into Swift Form, rushing out of the building. He grabbed Kaida with him rushing outside and this caused Happy to drop Natsu onto the stage. Lucy coughed before noticing that her dress was on fire.
Lucy shrieked as she said,"Oh no! I'm on fire! Help me Gray! I need ice!". "So since Zane's gone, I guess someone will have to be the sarcastic asshole bard. It's up to me!" said Stella, running on stage with a smile. "Okay. I got you Lucy! Ice Make:...." said Gray. He couldn't finish his spell as Erza jumped on his head like a goomba. Erza slashed Lucy's dress to get rid of the fire with Stella saying with a smile,"And the princess has gone nude!".
The boys in the crowd except for Danny cheered for this. "Oh my. Zane was right to get out of this mess before it got worse." said Mira. "Yeah Mira. Zane's Crisis Judgement is real good at that." said Danny. "So why aren't you gawking like the rest of the boys?" said Levy. "I got a special lady back home in the Prime Dimension. Lucy isn't really my type and I don't cheat on my special lady just like Zane does with you Levy." said Danny.
Gray was stunned with Rabian saying from behind a curtain,"Thank you so very much!". "Princess are you alright?" said Erza, covering Lucy up with her cape. "How did you end getting the lead in this play?" said Lucy. "Because she demanded it despite her being a terrible actress!" said Stella. "You're enjoying this aren't you Stella?" said Gray, rubbing his head. "Kinda. It's really fun. You should try it Gray." said Stella, smiling. "That hurt jerks!" roared Natsu, breathing fire on the ground.
The ice wizard sighed as he said,"Seriously Natsu? Chill out!". Before he could a spell, Gray was sent flying back as Taurus appeared. "The princess hot body summoned me here! Rock on Miss Lucy and shake those utters proud!" said Taurus. "Why would I do that for you or anyone?!" said Lucy with a huge blush on her face. "I sensed that you were in danger but I guess I was wrong. I'll always protect you Miss Lucy but well, I'm out of here." said Taurus. "Why can't I have a normal spirit?" said Lucy.
During all of this chaos and destruction, Erza stood there. "I have no other choice! Punishment awaits all of you!" said Erza, activating her Purgatory Armor. She, Gray, Natsu, and Stella began fighting each other with the group of Happy, Lucy, Rabian, and Sly watching in the background. "This has gone way out of hand!" said Lucy. "Yes! Yes! More destruction! More action!" said Rabian. "Why do I have a bad feeling about this?" said Lucy.
Outside, Kaida and Zane ,with the latter out of Swift Form, watched as several pillars of fire and ice erupted from it and the building crumbled to pieces. "Wow. This play was a real disaster am I right Peanut?" said Zane, enjoying some popcorn. "Aye! But your singing was awesome papa!" said Kaida with her smiling. "Oh wow. Those kids are crazy." said Bob. "Why do they keep causing destruction wherever they go?!" said Makarov. "You really should retire soon Macky." said Yajima.
Danny protected Levy and Mira from the rubble using his Phantom Smashers. "Oh wow. You're fast on the draw there Danny." said Mira. "Decades of practice will do that Mira." said Danny. The crowd was cheering for them, confusing Lucy. Erza was lifting up Natsu ,who was breathing fire, and kept Stella at bay while Gray was unconscious and in his boxers. Rabian cheered out in joy and Zane smiled. "Oh. I guess we better get going Peanut." said Zane.
Kaida looked confused with Danny walking up to them. "Your dad is saying that since the play did so well. They'll be here for a while. So how about a Fantasia slushie for old times sake?" said Danny. "I guess but you're buying." said Zane. "Except for Sly right?" said Danny. "Yep. I'm not that big of a sadist outside of training." said Zane. The trio was gone as Team Natsu and Stella were forced to perform the show ,three times a day, for an entire week but were paid handsomely for it.
Next time,
With the horrendous acting and temple hijinks over with, we have to go back to the Loke arc. I'm so not excited but I'll do it since I made a promise. Will we meet Wendy again? And who else from Zero will make an appearance? Will there be more singing? Like Oh Sheila? And will there be a possible musical episode/chapter for Zero or Fairy Legion in the future? This and more next time on Fairy Legion!
Classic Cards/Forms that were introduced in Zero:
Detective Form. This card has a black frame with a human silhouette standing in the center and it's fist glowing bright making a police badge in the background. This Form was introduced in Zero Episode 49 and it doesn't have a Prime Form.
New Cards/Forms that haven't been seen in Zero yet:
Chimera Form. This card has a black frame with a chimera like creature in the center of the card and the chimera is made out of several different elements. When Zane places this card inside, he becomes a beast. This Form hasn't been introduced in Zero yet and it doesn't have a Prime Form.
Scarecrow Form. This card has a black frame with a scarecrow standing in the middle of a pumpkin field with the pumpkins rising around the straw man. When Zane places this card inside, Zane loses his flesh for straw. This Form hasn't been introduced in Zero yet and it doesn't have a Prime Form. To give this form a voice, think Jeffrey Combs but had a British accent. I would say that you should imagine his voice when he's portraying the Question and Scarecrow from DC comics or the Leader from Marvel. Fun fact. It was going to be Robert Englund when he's portraying the famous horror movie icon Freddy Krueger, the Vulture from Spectacular Spider-Man, or the Scarecrow (DC) from Injustice 2. I changed my mind. This little bit of info about Scarecrow Form is thanks to the Dream Warriors.
Draco Form. This card has a black frame with a human standing in the center with the silhouette of a dragon behind the human. When Zane places this card inside, Zane gets more dragon like and less human. This Form hasn't been introduced in Zero yet and it doesn't have a Prime Form.

Erza glared right at Zane with her saying,"Seriously?! That's your reason?! Put the gun away right now!". "I think you should be used to that kind of logic by now Erza." said Stella, earning a nod from Kaida and Sly. "Never Prude Knight!" said Zane. "Ignore him sir. We're here to help out with the staging so you can leave everything to us." said Lucy. "Well, we have a bit of a problem." said Rabian, earning a confused look from the group.
Backstage inside of the theater, Lucy shouted,"What?! All of the actors just walked out on you! What jerks!". "I have to agree with your cast leaving you here. I mean you played Romeo and Juliet. The worst romance in the Omniverse." said Zane, with his gun still aimed at Rabian and his comment earned a punch from Sly. "Thank you so very much!" said Rabian with him peeking out behind a curtain in the same matter as before. "Why are you thanking us?" said Happy.
Rabian sighed as he said,"The reputation of our place has gotten worse and worse because of my last few shows been complete and utter failures. The reviews are just the worst being that the actors are too embarrassed to perform in another one of my shows. So they left me to die a cold, lonely death just like my wife! I won't give up on my dream! The theater is the way I live but this was my last chance to shine! I can never be redeem myself! Thank you very much!".
Gray sighed as he said,"So are all actors this dramatic?". "Pretty much." said Sly. "Since I have no actors to perform, I had to cancel the show. Sorry for making me waste your time! Thank you very much!" said Rabian. "So has he said thank you very much after every sentence?" said Stella. "I think so." said Kaida. "You know what they say, the show must go on." said Erza. "Huh?" said the rest of the Fairies, turning to Erza.
Erza smiled as she said,"Have no fear good sir. We shall perform in your play!". As she said this, her eyes turned into stars and sakura blossom went around her. "Um. She's glowing right?!" said Stella as Gray and Lucy nodded. Erza began humming as Happy said,"And that's some warm up you got going on there!". "Your play is screwed. It isn't going to be legitimate the-a-ter unlike Dr. Zaius." said Zane with him humming a tune that caused Sly to sigh.
Lucy smiled as she said,"Now that I think about it. This sounds like it could be fun right?". "Really Luce?" said Natsu. "Yeah. I could be a princess!" said Lucy as Natsu blushed while he imagined her as a princesses. "Weren't you a princess?" said Kaida. "Ignore them sir. We're not going to let your dream die." said Stella as she turned to Rabian. "Aye!" said Happy. "I didn't agree to this. Would you people stop volunteering me?! I hate that remember?" said Zane.
Sly sighed as she said,"How about you perform the music for the play? I'm sure Kaida would like to hear your amazing singing right sweetie?". Kaida rapidly nodded with Zane sighing being that he couldn't refuse his daughter. "Sure. but I get to pick the first song okay?" said Zane. Rabian got teary eye for a second with him saying,"Really?". He turned away from them as he said,"I'll give you amateurs a try.". "So why didn't you say thank you very much this time?" said Gray.
The team had a week to prepare for the opening. Erza ,with her in a blue tracksuit, took her role very seriously as she began to memorize her lines as Frederick the Prince. "Wow. I had no idea Erza was such a good actress!" said Lucy in a pink jumpsuit. "It's like she was made for this!" said Happy in a yellow jumpsuit. "So why is she playing a man papa?" said Kaida with her not wearing a jumpsuit unlike the rest of her group except for Sly.
She was drawing up pictures for some flyers that Happy and Sly were going to deliver once she was done with them. Zane ,who was tuning up Yamata, shrugged as he was wearing a black tracksuit with emerald green flame like designs. "No clue Peanut. I kinda hope she gets stage fright. I got the Big Laugh on stand by when that happens." said Zane. "Man. We can't let her steal the show! Right you guys?" said Natsu as he was cutting some wood.
Gray was wearing the top part of a blue and white tracksuit, Natsu was wearing a red tracksuit, and Stella wore a gold one. "Yeah." said Gray. "You do know that on the stage, we're a team right?" said Stella. "Ignore them Stella. So are you ready to go Happy?" said Sly, noticing that Kaida had finished up the fliers. "Aye ma'am!" said Happy. The duo of Happy and Sly began flying around the town and others delivering flyers for the upcoming "Fredrick and Yanderica".
You may wondering why the name Yanderica came from but I have no idea. "From that point on and whenever we weren't rehearsing, we were handing out fliers to anyone who would take on and work tirelessly to finish the set. Like with the guild hall, Zane didn't help us with that but he did help us memorizing all of the lines we had to do. He's such a sadist. Everyone is so excited for the upcoming performance so we enjoyed every moment of it." said Lucy's voice.
Some amount of time later, Rabian approached the group as seven of them were memorizing their roles. Zane would have but he had the role of narrator "I hate to interrupt but you have some fans who want to see you." said Rabian. "We have fans?" said the group except Zane. "I have fans and hopefully, he shows up." said Zane. Everyone left the building being that Makarov waved to them as a crowd joined up with him.
Unlike with the anime, this is going to change since Zane is here and this is my story. The crowd consisted of Bob, Bora, Ira, Juvia, Levy, Makarov, Mira, the Pirate captain from the Galuna Island Arc, and Yajima. You may wonder why I excluded some of them. I had to pick some characters to cut and the ones missing are the first who came to mind. I also has a character whose appearance will shock you I hope. "Whoa! What are all of you guys doing here?!" said Lucy.
Mira smiled as she said,"We wouldn't miss your big debut! Now break a leg!". "Um. I think that's a bad thing to say Mira." said Juvia. "Actually, it's good luck in theater terms." said Levy. "That makes no sense." said Juvia. "It's been too long since I've last seen a play." said Makarov. "Thanks for the invite Macky." said Yajima. "Hey there boys. Did you miss little old me?" said Bob, causing the duo of Gray and Natsu to shiver in place.
Ira looked at him with him saying,"Um Master Bob. You know that you're scared two of them right? I mean it's funny though.". "So the fake Salamander is here? Why?" said Lucy, talking to Bora. Due to her ex being here, Juvia was hiding behind Levy. "So how are things going for Brook?" said Natsu. "It's Bora! After you gave me a harsh lesson with your blazing fists, I decided to change my ways and give up my life of being a model scout." said Bora.
Upon seeing Bora, Zane began walking toward him. "You don't seriously think anyone's buying that right?" said Lucy. "I'm sure you would have your doubts but I'm being completely honest." said Bora with him smiling. "She thought that you were doing dirty things with them!" said Happy. "Um. You guys do know he's lying through his teeth right?" said Sly. The trio of Happy, Lucy, and Natsu looked at Sly with her saying,"It's super obvious with scum like him and they must be punished.".
Before Bora could say anything, he heard,"This is for hurting those innocent women scumbag and Juvia bastard!". Bora was kicked in the nuts hard, sending him flying away. Zane stood there with Ira saying,"Oh wow. You sent him flying. Nice.". "Thanks but people who treat women like that should burn in hell or some other bad place like Jersey." said Zane. "Dude. You seriously pick Jersey of all places in the Omniverse? I mean just wow." said a familiar voice to Sly and Zane.
The entire group looked to see a single person standing there with Zane smiling. "Sorry but Jersey in any dimension is the worst. I mean Jersey Shore? It makes the shitshow Ultimate Showdown look like a masterpiece." said Zane. This person is Danny Malone. Danny is 6 foot 2 now in Zero but he can change his height so he's 6 foot. He had short brown hair, azure blue eyes, and freckles that he got from his mother.
He looks to have a muscular, attractive figure. He's wearing a black open jacket with a hood. It has white circuitry board lines on the arms and sides of the jacket. He's wearing a gray v-neck t-shirt with his superhero logo in the center. It's his signature gear with a large drill head pointing downward in the center of the gear. He's wearing black jeans with a similar white circuitry board pattern on it. He wears his gray sneakers and a pair of sunglasses resting on his shirt.
Makarov looked at this with him saying,"Sly or Zane. Who is this?". He could tell that Danny was an old friend of Sly and Zane. "Wow man. I'm actually kinda hurt that you never told your new friends about me." said Danny, smirking. "You know Zane. He just loves to surprise people. It's good to see you again Danny." said Sly, hugging Danny. "Same Sly. My name is Danny Malone aka Morph. Nice to meet you." said Danny, returning the hug of his dragon friend.
Gray's eyes widened as he said,"Wait. You're Danny? Zane told me about you and I've seen him kicking your ass.". "Yep and what is he talking about bro?" said Danny. "Ignore him. I mean he's half naked." said Zane. Gray was in his boxers with Danny shrugging. "Really thought you were joking about him being a stripper in your report." said Danny. "I wasn't for once in my life." said Zane, shaking his head in annoyance.
As Zane introduced his alternative dimension friend to the others, the Pirate captain was talking to Erza. "I'll be out there rooting for you me beauty!" said the captain. "Thank you for coming all this way." said Erza, slamming him into her breastplate. "Um Zane. Is that?" said Danny. "That's normal for Prude Knight." said Zane. "Ah and he looks fine with it. This place is weird." said Danny, pointing to the pirate's hearts in his eyes. "So you are from another dimension like Sly and Zane?" said Stella.
Danny nodded as he said,"Yep. I'm part of Zane's team known as Team Maelstrom and while I may look human, I'm not.". "What do you mean by that?" said Lucy. "I'm a homo supremus or an evolved human/metahuman. Thanks to my sister, I discovered that I'm immortal so I can make sure Zane doesn't get himself killed protecting people." said Danny. "Which happened a lot even now." said Sly with Zane rolling his eyes. "Uh. I don't get it." said Natsu.
Zane shrugged as he said,"Neither does Danny. So did you bring the goods?". "Of course bro." said Danny. He held out his hands, making some food appear. It's Quarto Queso Dos Fritos from Psych and here's the recipe in video and text form. "Nice." said Zane. "Um. What is that?" said Lucy. "It's Quarto Queso Dos Fritos. One of the best foods in the Omniverse." said Danny. "Our tastebuds are going to be on the flavor train." said Zane, taking one and smiling.
As this was going on, Lucy sat on the stairs and sighed. "You guys will do great!" said the group from Earthland. "Thanks!" said the group except Kaida, Lucy, and Zane. "I'm beat and the curtain hasn't even gone up yet." groaned Lucy. "But Lucy, we have amazing foods to eat," said Kaida, enjoying a Quarto Queso Dos Fritos. "Yep. You're definitely Zane's kid. Welcome to the best and weirdest family in the Omniverse." said Danny, smiling at his latest niece.
In due time, it was time to start the show. The seats of the theater were filled in as people from all over Fiore gathered to view the show. "May I have your attention please?" said the PA. "Oh wow. It has been so long since we've had a sold house! Thank you so very much!" said Rabian. "Got to agree with you there pedo." said Zane. "So why did you have to reject Lyra again?" said Lucy with her in a pink dress.
The two were looking out to view the audience. Zane shrugged as he said with him getting Yamata ready,"My bias are strong especially my music ones.". "Oh whatever. So I bet you're scared of singing in front of an audience this big before," said Lucy. "Not really Lucy. Zane has performed in front of a large crowd before and doesn't have stage fright." said Sly, floating over to them. "And after this, I'll be throwing rotten fruits and veggies at you afterwards." said Zane.
Gray entered the back with him wearing a blue suit and a cape. Erza and Stella were also with them being that the latter was wearing her normal clothes. Kaida, Sly, and Stella were stage hands. Erza is wearing a beige coat with a sword onto her hip. The redhaired knight styled her hair to resemble a boy as she wore a turquoise cape. "Well, I wish you all good luck. I'm up first and get ready to have your minds blown or Prude Knight. You look great as a man rather than a woman." said Zane.
The lights dimmed and eventually turned off. The curtains unravel as the crowd heard,"Ladies and gentleman! I hope you're ready to rock! Hit it!". Yep. This is where the first song of Fairy Legion will be and it's my favorite ending theme in all of Anime. It's Sugar Song and Bitter Step by the band Union Square Garden. You may noticed all of the links down at the end of the post. I wanted to make sure that you can buy the official release since I don't own the song whatsoever.
I made sure that the lyrics were there so you can tell where I got. I also put some videos there so you can experience it for yourself. Lets begin shall well and how Zane is going to be singing it is the same way the last song appeared in Zero Episode 133. The song slowly began with the drums or guitar switching back and forth. It got the crowd interested since they never heard a song like this before and well, it got them interesting.
The two instruments then began playing together in unison. When this happened, the stage was instantly covered in smoke. Danny smiled as he said,"Rock on bro.". As the smoke cleared from the stage, a drummer ,Sivarth in his human form, and guitarist ,Kane in his human form, appeared with them playing their instrument. Kane's guitar looks to be a heavily modified ESP Michael Paget V. It's a white color, reminding people of snow.
The front of the guitar having a pattern covering a battle between fire and ice clashing. The body is in the shape of a five pointed star with five prongs and pointed edges that have a v-shape. The strings are a gold color. Sivarth's drums looks to be a standard rock drum kit. This consisted of one hanging tom, a splash cymbal, ride cymbal, bass drum, floor tom, and snare drum. There are five drums in total with all of them made of crimson red energy.
The drum skin has a noticeable molten gold and steel gray LZ with the L being Molten Gold and the Z being steel gray. The body of each drum had a noticeable turquoise finish to it. The curtain to the stage was still down with Zane standing in the center of Kane and Sivarth. The Cross Species had a headset on the right side of his face, with a microphone over his cheek and mouth. He took a deep breath as he began to sing.
I’ve gotten used to this super-natural madness.
That somehow I believe is the way my life should be.
Shaken up, in a whirl, on this rambling roller coaster.
But what is it that I can’t take my eyes off?
Swallowed up by the fundamentals of equality.
I feel as though my heart’s starting to ramble on and on.
All the hate, all the love, all for you - so try to speak up.
‘Cause otherwise you’re no more than a doll.
At night, the city streets.
Crowds of people on their feet.
Some are happy with the world they know.
While others struggle all alone.
The difference in their lives.
Like music notes they dance across the stave.
Like melody and rhythm singing.
Marmalade jelly & sugar song.
Peanut coat & a bitter step.
It’s quite a treat, so bittersweet, my head begins to spin around.
Keep on partying on and on.
Take it down from South to West.
The world will sing aloud.
Because tonight is going down in history!
I feel so damn good - take my hand, reflect the light up!
I’m so unsettled by statistics and reality.
Will the music that I make.
Be just a tool for them to take?
Turn around, if you please - just don’t turn your back to face me.
Although I guess that’s not enough to plead my case.
After we celebrate.
When the music fades away.
Some are smiling still from ear to ear.
While others break down into tears.
They’re both one and the same.
But I can’t help thinking it doesn’t make much sense.
To put it into words how all their.
favorite thing is a sugar song.
Their happiness is a bitter step.
So shout it out aloud ‘cause we won’t let our lives end over there.
Even if you regret it all, each and every day will end.
So listen to the forecast in your head predict the weather till it’s done!
As Kane began strumming on the guitar and Sivarth slammed down on the drums, Zane's dancing became more intense due to him performing several intense dancing moves at once. This is due to his cloning ability. As this went on, the crowd getting more hyped up by the second. It eventually stopped and letting everyone catch their breath with Zane standing in the center of the stage.
Some day, even if the madness stops its breathing.
Some day, if the reasoning has lost all its meaning.
Feeling song and step.
And listen to the way our voices echo on.
‘Cause that’s the proof that shows that we exist here in this moment shout it out -
Q.E.D.!
Marmalade jelly & sugar song.
Peanut coat & a bitter step.
So shout it out aloud, why we must live our lives all over there.
Let’s be proud of how far we’ve come.
North-North East back where we began.
The world will sing aloud, so keep it up - nothing can stop us now!
Marmalade jelly & sugar song.
Peanut coat & a bitter step.
It’s quite a treat, so bittersweet, my head begin to spin around
Keep on partying on and on.
Take it down from South to West.
The world will sing aloud.
Because tonight is going down in history!
I feel so damn good, take my hand, reflect the light up!
Goes on, and on, it repeats, so let go of work and have fun!
Whoah - oh, one more time, give your all! No, no-no-no, no, no-no-no
We got happiness, phrase and the melodies!
Sly smiled as she said,"Nice job Zane but for you and the feelings you project when you sing Sugar Song, it's amazing.". "You were awesome papa!" said Kaida. Zane nodded as he said with a big smile,"Thanks Peanut. So now, do you know why I rejected Lyra Lucy?". Lucy nodded as Zane sat down on a stump and strummed his guitar. "You're so very lucky I love my daughter. Now get ready boys and girls. I'm about to start the play." said Zane with Team Natsu rushing into position.
After calming down from Zane's song, the crowd heard Zane's voice and guitar once again as the curtain rose to reveal him singing. "A long time ago, there was the lonely prince. The reason for his loneliness was due to the fact that he was such a prude and a totally stricker for rules even though he can dress like a whole. Me thinks that if he pull that stick out of his ass, he would have a woman to love." sung Zane.
A couple members of the crowd chuckled at Zane's jokes with Erza ,aka the prince, glaring at him from behind the stage. From the balcony, Makarov and Mira watched with Danny, Levy, and Yajima with a smile on their face. "His voice is amazing." said Yajima. "Simply the full package he is." said Bob. "So is he?" said Danny, smirking as Levy blushed. "In a distant land and so very far away, the prudish prince decided to find love there since no one would date him in his kingdom." sung Zane.
Erza ,now on stage, glared at him with the lights above her shined, striking a pose. "You're a vision me beauty!" said the pirate. "No he is not! If you think, you're clearly insane in the membrane. The prudish prince learned about a princess taken by a dragon since even a dragon need to find love in this Omniverse." sung Zane. Erza hesitantly tried to act out her role, fidgeting as her body was trembling slightly. Gray and the others looked at her in worry. "Uh oh. We're doomed." said Gray.
Lucy whispered,"She's totally frozen out there!". "I thought she had gotten over her mean case of stage fright." said Natsu. "Which means..." said Sly. "It seems that the prudish prince can't act under pressure. And for some strange reason, his kingdom respect him even though he can't find a date. I think it's time to play some music." sung Zane. As Erza was trying to perform her lines, she heard a song coming from Zane. It's the Big Laugh.
Erza stuttered out,"Hear ye! Hear... Oh.... My... Name is Fredrick! I'm a princess! I came here to save the prince!". "Wow. This guy is more stiff than wood." said Bora in the crowd. "She's just doing this to make us things she's nervous. She's doing some sort of acting technique." said Ira. "You're a wizard saint how?" said Bora. "And with the power...." said Erza. "Me thinks that the prince is a bit confused in the head. This is due to him being such a tight ass!" sung Zane, earning a couple of laughs
Lucy held the script with her saying,"Oh no. She skipped way ahead! That line's from a completely different scene.". "Wow. Erza is so scared out there and I don't think she's breathing!" said Happy. "I think Zane is having too much fun out there." said Stella. "I wield the power because I have thirty swords!" said Erza. As she said that, she made several swords appear out of thin air and threw them into the crowd, scaring them. "You're doing great my beauty!" said the pirate.
Danny chuckled with him saying,"Yep. This is totally worth the trip and here Zane thought that the only enjoyment he would get is throwing rotten food at Prude Knight. Singing mockery is totally him to the letter.". "I didn't know that the theater was such a dangerous place." said Yajima. "Isn't this exciting everyone?" said Mira. "I guess but Macky has a very different opinion." said Bob, noticing the stunned look on his face. "She's falling apart out there you guys!" said Happy. "But papa isn't!" said Kaida.
Zane smiled as he sang,"Don't worry folks. His swords aren't real just like his sex appeal with the ladies especially the pink haired ones.". "We really should do something but I'm really enjoying Zane burning Erza." said Stella. "We'll just have to improvise around her and doing our best to save the show!" said Lucy. "That sounds like a bad idea Triple B!" sang Zane. "And why can't I go on stage again?!" said Natsu as Lucy looked at him. "Never mind." said Natsu.
Lucy began her role as she is lowered by a rope. Tied to it, the light shined upon her as she said,"Oh my beloved Prince Frederick! Please save me! I'm being held in the terrible clutches of the fiendish brute Sienhart!". "Don't you mean Sieghart? Or Shinra? Or Genesis? Or Justice?" sang Zane. This burn may not make sense but look at this picture. Hiro's laziness at its finest. Expect a full Hero's rant after the manga is finished. "So who is this Sienhart guy?" said Bora.
Ira shrugged as he said,"Honestly, I thought his name was Shinra.". Gray walked on stage as the light hovered on him. "I'm the great Julius and if you want to save the princess, you'll have to cross blades with me!" said Gray. "I know what you're thinking folks. Who the hell is the guy? And what happened to Sieggy? Me thinks that the play was written by Vulcans!" sung Zane. "Wow. This play is actually the worst." said Levy. "At least, Zane's comments are keep me interested." said Danny.
Erza stuttered out,"I challenge you....". "Come on Prude Knight. Do this before you grow gray hairs and falls out of your head." sung Zane. Gray looked at Erza's blue face with him saying,"And I think she's gone!". "Wait. I have an idea. Open! Gate of the Clock Constellation, Horologium!" said Lucy. The grandfather gcock appeared with Erza inside of it. "We'll fight! A duel even! says the prince in a timid tone." said Horologium.
The crowd was confused by this as Gray whispered,"So what are you thinking Lucy?!". "I think the clock is here because the prince is pretty bad at this so the clock decided to help out. Me thinks if Prince Fredrick passes out before he duels against the villain. He would be quite the crappy prince am I right?" sung Zane. "How good for you to come out and help out the prince. The brave prince is in urgent need of a moment's rest." said Lucy with a smile.
Zane rolled his eyes as he sung,"Or in other words, the princes sucks at his job.". Erza took a deep breath and regained her confidence. "Finally caught my breath. I'm back." said Erza, stepping out of the clock. She glared at Zane with her saying,"And after this, I'm killing the bard.". Gray and Lucy looked at Zane who sung,"No way in hell Prude Knight!". "Whatever Prince Fredrick. You're going down! Meet my Ice Make: Ice Sword!" said Gray.
A sword made out of ice appeared in Gray's hand. Upon seeing the ice blade, Erza's fear returned and a ring of swords appeared. "You're going down by my ten swords!" said Erza. Gray tried to run out but couldn't. He was pierced by them, sending him flying. "Wow. This prince sucks more than Prude Knight here. So what will happen here next?" sung Zane. "This play may suck but I'm digging Zane's comments. They're hilarious!" said Ira, earning a confused look from Bora.
Lucy was let down from the ropes with her saying,"Prince Fredrick! Thank you for saving me! How can I ever thank you?". Erza got on a knee with her saying,"Please Lady Yanderica. Let's get married and have many children! I'm thinking seventy!". "Oh wow Prince. You really suck at talking to the ladies and asking them out am I right folks? Bow chicka wow wow." sung Zane, earning a couple of yes along with a couple of I'm confused from the crowd.
Makarov said,"So these plays today are so surreal huh?". "I'm really enjoying it. The Void Knight's comments are quite interesting. Keeps you invested no?" said Yajima. "Me too. They're all so good mainly Zaney." said Mira. "Wow. Someone other than Rae who could enjoy Zane's very unique sense of humor exist." said Danny. "Rae? Whose that?" said Levy. "I'll tell you after this shit show ends with some sort of catastrophe happening I'm sure." said Danny.
Gray returned as he said,"Your happiness will not happen today or ever Prince Fredrick!". "Hey look Julius is back after his crushing defeat." said a girl. "Death awaits you! Now come forth and burn them all to hell itself my dragon!" said Gray. The stage began to shake as Horlogium appeared. "It's my time to shine!" said Natsu. Natsu appeared on stage in a costume made of green barrels and a dragon's head entered.
This unique costume was behind held up by Happy and Zane's telekinesis. Natsu was breathing fire everywhere with Happy struggling to hold on. "I'm the powerful guard dragon! Fear my wrath!" yelled Natsu. "This is so awesome!" yelled Bora and Ira. "Lets's destroy this beast together my sworn rival!" said Gray. "Indeed!" said Erza. "Oh boy. These two princes are dumber than a bag of rocks am I right everybody?" sung Zane.
Levy blinked as she said,"Didn't Gray summon it?". "Honestly, I have no clue. I would just turn off your brain and relax." said Danny. "I can take care of the dragon! You two get to safety!" said Lucy as Zane smiled. "So she's going to slay it now?" said Mira. "Thanks princess! We owe you!" said Erza. "Later!" said Gray. "Oh wow. Our princes everyone. What a bunch of jokers. Perhaps Prince Frederick plays for the other team." sung Zane.
Bob smiled with him saying,"Ah. I didn't think Gray liked boys. Good for him.". Crisis Judgement went off as Zane stood up. "And now, I must leave since this play is the worst. Rock and roll folks plus tip your waitress!" said Zane. He transformed into Swift Form, rushing out of the building. He grabbed Kaida with him rushing outside and this caused Happy to drop Natsu onto the stage. Lucy coughed before noticing that her dress was on fire.
Lucy shrieked as she said,"Oh no! I'm on fire! Help me Gray! I need ice!". "So since Zane's gone, I guess someone will have to be the sarcastic asshole bard. It's up to me!" said Stella, running on stage with a smile. "Okay. I got you Lucy! Ice Make:...." said Gray. He couldn't finish his spell as Erza jumped on his head like a goomba. Erza slashed Lucy's dress to get rid of the fire with Stella saying with a smile,"And the princess has gone nude!".
The boys in the crowd except for Danny cheered for this. "Oh my. Zane was right to get out of this mess before it got worse." said Mira. "Yeah Mira. Zane's Crisis Judgement is real good at that." said Danny. "So why aren't you gawking like the rest of the boys?" said Levy. "I got a special lady back home in the Prime Dimension. Lucy isn't really my type and I don't cheat on my special lady just like Zane does with you Levy." said Danny.
Gray was stunned with Rabian saying from behind a curtain,"Thank you so very much!". "Princess are you alright?" said Erza, covering Lucy up with her cape. "How did you end getting the lead in this play?" said Lucy. "Because she demanded it despite her being a terrible actress!" said Stella. "You're enjoying this aren't you Stella?" said Gray, rubbing his head. "Kinda. It's really fun. You should try it Gray." said Stella, smiling. "That hurt jerks!" roared Natsu, breathing fire on the ground.
The ice wizard sighed as he said,"Seriously Natsu? Chill out!". Before he could a spell, Gray was sent flying back as Taurus appeared. "The princess hot body summoned me here! Rock on Miss Lucy and shake those utters proud!" said Taurus. "Why would I do that for you or anyone?!" said Lucy with a huge blush on her face. "I sensed that you were in danger but I guess I was wrong. I'll always protect you Miss Lucy but well, I'm out of here." said Taurus. "Why can't I have a normal spirit?" said Lucy.
During all of this chaos and destruction, Erza stood there. "I have no other choice! Punishment awaits all of you!" said Erza, activating her Purgatory Armor. She, Gray, Natsu, and Stella began fighting each other with the group of Happy, Lucy, Rabian, and Sly watching in the background. "This has gone way out of hand!" said Lucy. "Yes! Yes! More destruction! More action!" said Rabian. "Why do I have a bad feeling about this?" said Lucy.
Outside, Kaida and Zane ,with the latter out of Swift Form, watched as several pillars of fire and ice erupted from it and the building crumbled to pieces. "Wow. This play was a real disaster am I right Peanut?" said Zane, enjoying some popcorn. "Aye! But your singing was awesome papa!" said Kaida with her smiling. "Oh wow. Those kids are crazy." said Bob. "Why do they keep causing destruction wherever they go?!" said Makarov. "You really should retire soon Macky." said Yajima.
Danny protected Levy and Mira from the rubble using his Phantom Smashers. "Oh wow. You're fast on the draw there Danny." said Mira. "Decades of practice will do that Mira." said Danny. The crowd was cheering for them, confusing Lucy. Erza was lifting up Natsu ,who was breathing fire, and kept Stella at bay while Gray was unconscious and in his boxers. Rabian cheered out in joy and Zane smiled. "Oh. I guess we better get going Peanut." said Zane.
Kaida looked confused with Danny walking up to them. "Your dad is saying that since the play did so well. They'll be here for a while. So how about a Fantasia slushie for old times sake?" said Danny. "I guess but you're buying." said Zane. "Except for Sly right?" said Danny. "Yep. I'm not that big of a sadist outside of training." said Zane. The trio was gone as Team Natsu and Stella were forced to perform the show ,three times a day, for an entire week but were paid handsomely for it.
Next time,
With the horrendous acting and temple hijinks over with, we have to go back to the Loke arc. I'm so not excited but I'll do it since I made a promise. Will we meet Wendy again? And who else from Zero will make an appearance? Will there be more singing? Like Oh Sheila? And will there be a possible musical episode/chapter for Zero or Fairy Legion in the future? This and more next time on Fairy Legion!
Classic Cards/Forms that were introduced in Zero:
Detective Form. This card has a black frame with a human silhouette standing in the center and it's fist glowing bright making a police badge in the background. This Form was introduced in Zero Episode 49 and it doesn't have a Prime Form.
Chimera Form. This card has a black frame with a chimera like creature in the center of the card and the chimera is made out of several different elements. When Zane places this card inside, he becomes a beast. This Form hasn't been introduced in Zero yet and it doesn't have a Prime Form.
Scarecrow Form. This card has a black frame with a scarecrow standing in the middle of a pumpkin field with the pumpkins rising around the straw man. When Zane places this card inside, Zane loses his flesh for straw. This Form hasn't been introduced in Zero yet and it doesn't have a Prime Form. To give this form a voice, think Jeffrey Combs but had a British accent. I would say that you should imagine his voice when he's portraying the Question and Scarecrow from DC comics or the Leader from Marvel. Fun fact. It was going to be Robert Englund when he's portraying the famous horror movie icon Freddy Krueger, the Vulture from Spectacular Spider-Man, or the Scarecrow (DC) from Injustice 2. I changed my mind. This little bit of info about Scarecrow Form is thanks to the Dream Warriors.
Draco Form. This card has a black frame with a human standing in the center with the silhouette of a dragon behind the human. When Zane places this card inside, Zane gets more dragon like and less human. This Form hasn't been introduced in Zero yet and it doesn't have a Prime Form.
