EVENT: Rising Tides |Ariel|

As the collective of mages and warriors arrived and the song began to fade, a heavy and over whelming power would begin to rise. At first it would be nothing more than a tickle, a slight teasing at the edge of the senses. But as the wizards gather waited and watched the tickle would turn to an itch, the itch to a burn, the burn into a thundering presence. Across the city they would feel it, the coming of something powerful indeed. Out in the bay sailors and fishermen on their boats would turn to each other in confusion and fear, quickly moving to turn their boats back towards shore. Citizens across the city, beings who normally felt no magic, felt this coming presence. Wizards, both high and low, would likely stop and turn towards the sea as the massive amount of magic rushed towards them. Something on an entirely new scale from them was coming, and fast.

Out in the sea all was calm. The wind did not blow, the sea did not stir. Not even a seagull could be seen upon the water. Then came the disturbance. It started as a ripple, a fast moving rush in the water, small and insignificant, but constant. Oh but it grew, widening at first, spanning an ever growing amount of surface. But then it grew upwards as it neared the land, and those on shore would begin to see it, though it was still far out. A mass of black under the water, moving at an impossible speed, the mound of black growing rapidly out of the water. As it grew features would become prominent upon it. A slope down. Ridges. Fins. Eyes. A creature had come to Hargeon, and as it neared the shore it only grew, taller and taller, broader and broader, bigger than anything that had ever before come to Fiore. The citizenry would stand in awe, dumbfounded. The fishermen and sailors would stop their work and stare in horror as this thing rushed towards them. And as it neared and grew, so to would its magical presence, dwarfing that of even the mighty gods of Ishval who had gathered. A neck now appeared, with already over a hundred feet of head. Shoulders rose from the water, hundreds of feet across of shining, black shell. Arms and tentacles next. A shining black skin, plates of shell, ridges of spines and fins. It plowed into the bay like a storm, its sheer size sending mighty waves crashing out to topple boats and swamp the docks. It rose from the water once in the bay, towering well above any gathered. The cities mightiest arcs and tallest towers seemed as but toys to this behemoth, and yet it continued to rise. Water cascaded from it like great waterfalls, and massive, hundred foot wide tentacles began writhing in the water.

Finally would it stop rising, towering above all, well over a mile, nearly two miles. The sky seemed to darken and not a sound could be heard at the arrival of such a being. Then it spoke. A voice more felt than heard, which echoed from the city and shook the towers, a mighty and booming voice, like that of a god.

"Rejoice! Children of men! Your new deity has come, to claim your sacrifice." said the voice, a voice which would boom and echo in the very minds of those gathered. As it spoke the creature would raise its arms slowly, clouds beginning to swirl in the sky and sea beginning to recede as the monster did so. "By your end shall my glory be remembered. Humanity has sat for too long upon the food chain. This day shall it fall from its lofty perch!" The beast bellowed menacingly, as even more of the sea would draw back, forming into a swell around the beast and spiraling around its body, rising up like a mighty wave and shield. "Let the world shake and the cries of the children be heard! I am your god! And this day I declare as the beginning of the apocalypse!" he would bellow once more before the water which had been swirling around him would stop swirling and suddenly rush forward, towards the city.

Sailors and fishermen who had escaped the arrival of the titan were swept away as the wave crashed forward. The docks were shattered. Stone buildings and towers crumbled as the wave smashed into it and water raced down the streets and alley ways, a hundred feet tall and with the force of a gods will behind it. Citizens were smashed aside in droves and entire buildings were swept away. No doubt the panic would have set in by now, but what good would flight and panic do now?

Gargalrax had come. His will would be done.


(Gargalrax for reference)

Spoiler:

The ground began to actually shake near Heero, Alyia, Gamon, Hana, and Ivy. The five Fairy Tail wizards could only look around in surprise as the wind itself in the town began to pick up, pushing Heero's hair and scarf around in the wind itself. The sea, it was alive. Heero could literally hear the giant waves crashing off in the distance, it was a very unnerving sound.

The sky would darken for a moment, as the source was incredibly obvious. A giant, towering....thing, rising out of the ocean easily a mile off of the coast of Hargeon. It was so tall, it looked like, no, it was touching the clouds. Waterfalls literally, poured off the side of it.

"I'm going to take that thing down." but before Heero could make a move, Rose would put a paw out in front of him, as she was shown on camera.

"The water displacement from that thing is going to be ridiculous, we need to find a way to protect the town, not go charging off towards the biggest threat." the camera would zoom out and show the five Fairy Tail wizards standing about, as the docks were at this moment being absolutely smacked by huge waves, that sent actual ships flying into town on huge crests of water.

In the background of Rose blocking them, one could see the gigantic monster Gargalrax, his gigantic tentacles moving here and there

"Rggggh, Rose we don't have time for this!" as soon as he said this, Rose would leap up and slap him across the face, stumbling back as she landed, Heero looked around blinking as people were literally running away screaming. There was no way the entire town could go down at the beginning like this, he couldn't let it happen.

"I'm going to encase the Town in Fairy Sphere." Heero said with a serious expression. "Regardless of what happens, we can't allow Hargeon to be wiped off the map. Those waves alone headed this way will do just that...." the ghost of Zuo Cii was shown, smiling down upon Heero as he clenched a fist. The old Lamia Scale guildmaster would've been pleased.

At this moment, a young lady came rounding the corner with a huge slush of water hitting houses behind her as she turned the corner sharply headed right for them. As the girl grabbed onto his shirt, Heero would look into her eyes and nod, remembering the sound of her bracelets for some reason, but not being able to piece it together in this moment of panic.

"Everyone, grab hold of me..." Heero would wait to feel Gamon, Alyia, Hana, Rose and Ivy's hands and paw on him before electricity would sparkle around them all, they would rocket away inside of a huge train sized bolt of Lightning that carried all six of them to the front steps of the Lamia Scale Guild Hall. As the train sized bolt of lightning smacked the ground, the six of them would reappear as the ground was blackened from their appearance impact.

Heero would then step to the edge of the Lamia Scale steps, as the town was shown in front of him; screams heard below for miles about. The tidal wave stretched from left to right on the horizon, as far as he could see as Gargalrax could be seen far off in the distance. Heero's scarf would blow in the wind.

"Heero, don't be foolish....you'll use up too much magic power..." but Rose was cut off as Heero turned around and actually yelled at her.

"I DON'T HAVE A CHOICE! DENIEL AND ARDERE ARE ALREADY MAKING A B-LINE FOR THAT THING, AND FLEW RIGHT OVER THE TIDAL WAVE!!!" Heero would look irritated, as he turned back around. A comet of black energy, and another of flames were shown in the background headed through the sky toward the monstrous beast in the waters. Deniel and Ardere from afar. Rose's ears would droop down behind her head. Heero could also see what looked like Sharkmen biting people in half...it was gory, bloody, horrible down there. "Gamon....keep the ladies safe." Heero spoke to the only other male present, instructing him to protect Alyia, Hana, Ivy, Rose, and Ariel. The cat would ball up her fists, in protest at this.

"W-what! I'm coming with you, you'll need to get to the center of town quickly. To make sure that....." as Heero turned around, he would give Rose a final salute, as he rocketed off in another huge blast of lightning. Leaving his group at the top of the Lamia Scale Guild's stairs.

As a bolt struck the center of town, Heero would look around as a Sharkbeast went running by with a person in it's mouth, screaming for help. Heero would try his best to stay focused, as a sweatdrop appeared over his head as he struggled to not go chasing after the watery monstrosity. Turning and nodding to himself, he used this sight to steel himself for what must be done.

Clapping his hands, Heero would begin to channel an insane amount of Magic Power. The clouds above would whirl onto his position in an amazing weather effect. Two poles of magic, one around the being in the waters, and another around Heero were shown in the clouds.

The entire town would begin to glow with a very soft golden light, almost not noticeable. As the ground would rumble once more, but this time it was centered at Heero.

Fairy Sphere

The rumbling would stop as the camera zoomed out; with a huge pulse wave of Magic from Heero; a circular wave of glittering light that went out in all directions, traveling even into the waters and turning them gold. Briefly, as a giant gong was heard; from nowhere a huge shield would pull itself into existence from the bottom up.

Inside of it, people were shown running away from the tidal wave, some being eaten, ripped apart; limbs and blood frozen mid-air splattering everywhere in the mouth of the Shark Beasts unleashed upon the town. Glass shattering mid-air, spells going off, everything was frozen....but outside.

Sound returned, as the camera moved to outside. The bells on the docks were going crazy, as ships were lifted up almost as high as the wave itself, from a mile off it looked as if a huge wave taller than any skyscrapers would smack up against a gigantic shield the size of an island encompassing the town. The waters, would run off of the sides of the gigantic domed shield that was slightly golden in hue. The wave itself would have destroyed the city in it's entirety.

Heero was shown on top of the dome, dizzy, barely standing from using that much magic power. Having taken a direct hit from the tidal wave himself; he slipped and fell; falling to a knee, as the water continued to rush off of the sides of it. The hum of the grand spell was all that was heard. More familiar with Fairy Law, and Fairy Glitter; this was only the second time Heero had used this spell; and as the waters receded; showing Hargeon was undamaged, except for the Shark Beasts frozen in time within the town, ripping people apart; Heero would give a somber smile. As cracks began to form in the gigantic sphere though; his smile faded.

Shatter

Pieces of the spell went everywhere like glass as Heero tumbled downward; surprised. He'd already used up so much magic power, that this caught him off guard, thinking the spell to be more stable than that, he'd have to learn more about it. As he fell, he realized that something had caught him, as he started moving left to right; and not downward. As he looked up, it was Rose. Unfrozen in time.

"You did it...look." a visibly tired Heero was shown looking over his shoulder as the town still stood, a bit wet but everything was still fine and dandy. "You really look worn down..." she looked worried as the camera showed her arcing back toward the Lamia Scale Guild Hall with a trail of wind behind her; as she landed where the group was. Releasing Heero, who fell again to a knee, and stood up slowly. Exhaling, as he still visibly had some sweat on him.

"Heh, I may need a bit of time to recover guys...." Heero would turn and smile at the group he was with, before looking to the girl with red hair. "Good thing you showed up when you did...it doesn't look safe down there." as the screams returned, not from the approaching tidal wave any more, but now from the Shark beasts running rampant in the streets.

"All we can do now is protect Lamia Scale's Guild Hall......the others can protect the town...I hope." Heero took a knee, taking time to recharge himself as he looked out at the town.

Surrounded by Rose, Alyia, Ariel, Gamon, Hana, and Ivy. He would look around for anyone else who could help them keep the area safe, but for now, he didn't see anyone else. Rose was almost as powerful as he was, same with Alyia. Gamon, Hana, and Ivy were all pretty powerful in their own regard, so for now he felt pretty good about their chances at keeping Lamia Scale safe.

Little did he know, there was a wolf in their midst. A wolf with red hair. Rose's psychic attentiveness was giving her some weird vibes from this girl, but she seemed pretty weak magically and physically. So the cat merely kept her arms crossed, and turned away from her. Looking out at the town next to Heero.

OOC: Since when has my character name been Ivy? >.>))

Most people, in such a situation would have been frightened out of their minds, running around and following primal instincts. Or, they'd be attempting to get help, which was those of the rarer categories, or they'd be frozen in fear at this horrifying spectacle before them. Sorano, on the other hand... Well, Sorano was what you might call a special case. When the wave rose over the town, she stayed perfectly calm and in control, first of all thinking, "My, I wonder what could have caused such a large wave. I would like to do some research on it if at all possible." Her second thought was, "Hey, it looks like it's coming in this direction, and it's probably dangerous...Unless it's an illusion, in which it would be embarrassing to run from." It was only at her first thought did she think, "My life is in danger. I should run."

This was the disadvantage of having no emotions, and a very dull sense of fear. It was in these situations that fear was one of the best things you could have, a sense of self-preservation. Though the letter mage had had all those thoughts on a matter of a second, it may very well be a second was all she had someday. Then, she would be doomed. So it was lucky for her that she had a companion with emotions and an extremely acute sense of fear who happened to be able to fly. "Sorano-chan! What are you doing?!?!?!" Hoshi screamed, her voice laced with fear and panic. The scaredy-cat exceed was flying as fast as her wings would carry her, trying to get away from the wave.

Sorano didn't reply, a little surprised at the situation for a second before looking down, and spotting a very familiar head of blue, with a pink splotch hanging about nearby. Without relying to Hoshi's question, Sorano pointed downwards, "Hoshi-chan, Heero-san and Rose-san are down there, let's get over there first, okay? I'm sure Heero-san has some sort of plan." The exceed looked at the wave in horror, then angled htr eyes down towards Sorano. In one big decision, the exceed angled downwards toward the Fairy Tail guild master.

When they got there, Heero was telling the Fairy Tail members nearby to grab onto him, and he looked quite panicked, too. Sorano glanced at Hoshi, but the poor exceed already had a death grip on Heero, obviously trusting the man despite her usual shyness around him. Sorano sighed, knowing there didn't seem to be too much choice, and placed a small hand next to Hoshi's paw on her guild master's arm. In a flash she, Hana, Alyia, Gamon, Rose, Hoshi, and some stranger girl were in front of Lamia Scale's guild hall, and the smell of scorched ground was all around them.

"Gamon...keep the ladies safe," Heero suddenly said, and Sorano bristled slightly at that. Was her guild master implying that she, Hana, Alyia, Rose, and Hoshi weren't capable of keeping themselves safe? Last she checked, Gamon was only a C rank, same as her, and Alyia and Rose were way more powerful than the rest of them. Still, she supposed she could trust her teammate, though she doubted any of them couldn't keep themselves safe, thank you very much.

Sorano turned to inspect the new girl, her aura gaze seeming to pierce into the girl. Her mouth widened in an o of surprise... And then everything froze. All except for Sorano's shield, Luna, which was a manipulator of time itself, who stayed immune to the effects, lingering there in the dome until the wave had crashed over them all, leaving Heero exhausted on the top of the dome. As the spell slowly faded away, Sorano's eyes widened, sensing that something had happened due to the shift in energy around them. She watched as Heero came over, Rose carrying him down. She had to tell her guild master something... Something about that red haired girl.

Everyone seemed relieved that Heero was alright, Alyia hugging him in relief, and the room seemed to release a sigh. Everyone bundled into the hall, and. Sorano and Hoshi followed. Would Sorano be able to get Master Heero away from that redhead? The aura... It was an unfamiliar one to the letter mage. Filled with an odd sense of the ocean, and song, she had felt uncomfortable watching it. The letter mage tried to catch her guild master's eyes, too focused on this problem to have noticed the other unfamiliar aura nearby of the blonde's. For Sorano had a theory about that aura... And she didn't like it.

Gamon stood there as the earth beneath his feet started to shake. What could this be? An Earthquake, Maybe. Tykva and Gamon were still unaware of the gigantic sea monster rising out of the sea. The two of them were somewhere in the middle of the city, weaving in between the buildings. All he was concerned about at this point was getting to his teammates or even an other Fairy Tail  wizards. As they rounded a corner, that is when they both saw it. The towering creature jutting out of the sea. Gamon just froze in pure terror. “C-could this be why we are all here?” Gamon stuttered out loud to himself. Tykva had jumped up behind Gamon and was holding on to the back of his shirt. Her tail was puffed out and all the hair on her back was stick straight up. Both of them were terrified.

The Iron Dragon Slayer felt helpless. There was no possible way that he could help in anyway. Gamon’s focused went else where. He could now see that the issue was much bigger than the tentacle creature. The monster had created huge waves. Anything and everything that was by the docks and by the waterfront was getting destroyed and washed away. Fishermen, who were still in their boats, were thrown overboard. Buildings ripped from their foundations and mashed into thousands of pieces by the strong waves. His focus shifted once again, only to find more trouble. Creatures that looked like humanoid sharks were terrorizing the townspeople. It was a horrible sight. These shark people would just rip people in half. It made Gamon sick to his stomach, seeing such horrible things.

Gamon’s trace was broken when he felt water soak his feet. “How did the water make it all the this far inland?” He would ask himself. Hargeon was flooding and it was going to get much worst in no one did anything about it. His thoughts became clear and his senses heightened. Gamon knew what he must do now. He was able to feel the strong electrical energy, that Gamon associated with his Guildmaster. If anyone knew what to do at a time like this it would be Heero.

The young slayer used all of his senses to track down Heero. It only took Gamon a minute or two to get to him. It looked like he wasn't the only person who thought about finding they high ranking dragon slayer. Members of Fairy Tail had gather around Heero. Alyia, Hana, Rose, Sorano, and Hoshi were around Heero. There was also a red hair girl as well. Gamon had never seen her before, and was unable to get a good read on the girl. There was no time to worry about who the redhead was. At the moment there were bigger issues that they had to deal with.

As Gamon approached the group, Heero made the command for everyone to hold on to him. Gamon did what he was told and didn’t think anything of it. Before he knew it, Heero had transported everyone to the entrance of Lamia Scale guild hall. The smell of scorched ground wafted through the air. Gamon stumbled back when they landed. It seems like people always forget that Iron and Lightning do not mix well. He was only a little dazed for a few moments before coming back to reality. It seemed as if spending more time around Heero had made him more resilient to the effects of electricity, but it still had its effects on him. Gamon made it to his feet and looked out across Hargeon. It didn’t look any better up there either, everyone just had a viewpoint to see all the horrors below them.

Gamon looked out to the sea. The giant sea creature had begun to make bigger and bigger waves. It looked as if it was intentionally making the waves to wipe out the whole city. Heero would turn to Gamon with a serious look in his eyes, and instructed Gamon to protect the ladies. Gamon was taken back by this statement. Everyone standing their could hold their own, or maybe even do a better job at protect everyone. He knew that Alyia was a higher rank than himself. As for Sorano, he knew that she could handle herself from all the jobs they have done together. Hana might need help, but not much. The one person who he might have to protect was the redheaded girl. “Uh… Heero are you sure you want me too. I mean Alyia could..” Gamon began to reason before he was interrupted by Rose. Before he knew it Heero was gone in a bolt of lightning and reappeared at the center of town.

Gamon looked around. He looked at everyone who was standing next to him. He would look out down below at the horrible sight of people struggling to fight for their lives. Gamon looked out at the sea. The gigantic tentacle monster and the large tidal wave that was going to crash into Hargeon at any moment. For some reason time seemed to slow almost stopping. It wasn’t until a few moment passed that time returned. Something was strange though, the wave that was about to crash into Hargeon was gone. There was a strong sense of magic in the air as well. Stronger than anything Gamon had ever felt before. Heero soon returned from the city center. He looked tired and worn out. Gamon put two and two together and figured Heero must’ve done one of the guild spells. Everyone filed into the Lamia Scale guild hall. Gamon hoped that Heero will recover quickly, they might need his power soon. “Heero, what should we do? We can’t just sit here and do nothing? Can’t we help in any way?” Gamon was done feeling helpless. He wanted to help out anyway possible.

He had to get to Hargeon, whatever it was that was going on he needed to be there. Kite was aboard the Tailspin and was soaring through the air on his way to the location that his entire guild had been sent out to. As his approach to Hargeon drew to a close his eyes would widen significantly upon his first time seeing the titanic sizes beast standing out on the waterfront of the port town and the ship still hadn't entered the town’s border yet. ”What in the actual hell..is that thing?“ He said as the grip on his steering column to the point where his knuckles has turned white and even retained the slight discoloration after relaxing his grip. ”I know Hika said it was an emergency...that's a fact… I guess I have better get over there and help.“ he said out loud watching as the gigantic beast continued to rise from the dark depths and just when he was starting to think that there wasn't anything that could tear his gaze off of the beast he was proven wrong, as he continued to watch the Titan grow he noticed the water the he was emerging from was growing displaced by the sudden mass this thing was placing on the surface resulting in a chain reaction and causing large waves with all huge ones looking to sweep the town away in a monster made tsunami. ”No the monster can wait I have to get down there and aid in the evacuation.“ he said as he uses the steering column to point the nose of the ship towards his new heading lowering the ships altitude to properly prepare a landing ”At the rate those waves are moving I won’t have much time to get people out...there will be casualties. “ he was saying but that's when something amazing occurred. Following a surge of a large magic signature right from the area he was heading towards a grand golden light appeared from out of nowhere and formed into a gargantuan dome encasing the town and protected it from the onslaught of waves that would most definitely have destroyed Hargeon entirely ”Well isn't that convenient “. Kite turned the wheel so he began to orbit around the sphere trying to get a better look at what he had just witnessed but it was soon made as clear as day not what it was but who it was that had been responsible stamped near the top of the dome was the Fairy Tail emblem the insignia of the Fairy Tail guild ”Well that solves that particular mystery. Most likely I won't be able to get in until it...“ he was about to say drops but it shattered into pieces and rained down specs of gold as well as one random person a man with blue hair falling down from where the top of the dome was but was thankfully caught by a cat with wings. ”Cat with wings? I’ve seen stranger, seen worse. It might be in my best interest to follow that airborne cat.“ and he did so staying at a higher altitude until he saw it land by placing the man it had caught in the air safely on the ground with a group of people who all seemed to be showing signs of relief of the blue haired man’s well being.

Kite flew the ship above the building line he figured it was high time that he park Tail spin as close as he would be allowed so he can aid in the evacuation and maybe even back up the mages that he just flew past. He managed to find a spot only a few yards away from the rest of the group, he started the landing sequence by first extending the landing gear which were in the form of four metal legs, he then pushed the sequences of buttons on the console so the turbines rotates on its swivel 90 degrees so the propulsion was shooting towards the ground and maneuvered them until the ship spun until the nose of the ship was pointing toward where the lot of people were coming from.  Kite looked over his shoulder at one of the men he had hired to help him pilot and keep maintenance on the ship that had brought along with him on the ship, ”Hey.“ he said getting the crew mate’s attention who came over to where Kite was sitting “What do ya need Captain?” He asked waiting for his orders just standing and waiting ”Take the copilot’s seat and keep her steady for the landing.“ He got up out of his chair as the copilot seat was occupied and he took a hold of the receiver of the radio and spoke into it as the ship landed. ”Attention Fairy Tail and anyone else out there come if you are in need to be evacuated or have civilians who need to be evacuated my ship can take you lot to safety . In a moment I will be sending up a flare look for it and meet me there.“ he said over the loudspeaker and then walked back over to his seat and leaned over the seat to reach the control panel above his chair and pushed a button which opened up the boarding ramp and looked at his crew member, ”We are about to get passengers. You are to take them to a shelter or anywhere you deem safe. Once you do keep altitude nearby and keep tabs on the area. Depending on what the big guy decides to do the lot of us might need extraction.“ He turned and walked down the stairs that connected the cockpit to the foredeck only to hear from behind him “ Yes sir leave it to me”. He turned the corner at the end of the hall and made his way down the winding catwalk until his feet were on the floor level of the Cargo Bay. The scent of the salty air flowing through his ship was familiar and soothing at the same time, he exited the ship and walked out so he was past the nose of the Tailspin and pointed his hand into the air concentrating his Demon slayer flames into a ball and threw it into the air causing an explosion in the air right above his ship. He stood there and waited for the bystanders to arrive so he could have the ship get somewhere safe and so he could also discuss what exactly he situation is, but more importantly so he could help deal with the behemoth if the time came.

Hana watched as the giant beast rose from the sea. It was kinda terrifying, but not the scariest sight to be seen. What it was that really unsettled the young mage was the song nature was playing through her ears.... there was none. Nature would always have some type of jumpy tune or lullaby to keep Hana at bay... but not, there wasn't, leaving a wave of Hana's forgotten emotions to come rushing towards her, sadness and fear. Nothing ever good came of a silent tune and she was well aware of that fact. Spinning on her heel, Hana made a break for it to find her team as she yelled for the citizens who were standing in awe to run. Some wouldn't listen, but Hana was satisfied with the few that did snap out of it, and continued running until she eventually ran into Heero right before a woman came rounding the corner over to Heero. Of course, Hana would wonder who the woman was, but was snapped out of her thoughts when Heero commanded, "everyone, grab hold of me...". The young mage complied to her guild master's order, knowing very well that if anybody, he would make the best decisions. As soon as everybody did so, Hana felt a sudden jolt of energy as the group was encased by sparkling electricy, and like the shot of a bullet made their way to the Lamia Scale Guild Hall. It felt kinda weird, but at the same time exciting. Once they landed, Hana decided to take a look at the town below. This was her difenition of terrifying, but not even that would fit. The more apropriate word would be mortifying. The silver's haired girl observed that there had been monstrous sea looking creatures tearing the town apart. Scenes of gore flooded her vision as she witnessed people screaming in agony and pain for help while they were being torn apart limb for limb. She witnessed people pleading for mercy and running to save their lives... it was deja vu of her own life that had occurred at this moment. This was the most uncomfortable Hana has ever felt in her skin throughout years, a feeling she wish she wouldn't have to feel that would soon consume her. Without the soothing voices of nature and her consciousness of the group conversation slipping away, she sat in thought  of what she must do in order to help them. However, she would soon come to realize that her attempts wouldn't be necessary due to the fact that Heero had went down and did so himself, blocking a wave that was sure to end the town and wipe it off the map. Everything seemed to have stopped to the young girl, and so it did. It wouldn't be until she saw the exceed of the guild master carrying Heero that she would become wary and worried of her teammate. However, he was safe now, and needed time to recharge. But how must she help? Making a decision, Hana decided to walk around to see if she could help treat anybody. As she did so, Hana caught glimpse of a man holding onto what appeared to be his daughter crying. She seemed conscious, but she looked to be bleeding out. Hana walked over, the man now cautious of her. "NO need to fret. I'm only here to help." she explained her aproach, and although the man was still wary, he handed the girl over. Hana got onto her knees and took a look. There was a large gash. It looked quite painful, so painful Hana could kinda feel it herself. With a frown, Hana lifted the girl's shirt and took out a waterbottle she had brought with her for the train ride that she never finished. She poored it on the girl's wound in attempt to clean it, the girl screaming in agony and the man becoming frantic and worried. "It's ok, I'm just cleaning her wound." The man sat back down, and Hana went back to work. She didn't have any bandages with her, so she decided to improvise using her shirt. She tightly grabbed the bottom of the striped sweater she always wears, and tore it just enough to wear her stomach was revealed, but nothing else. With much difficulty, Hana had tightly wrapped up the girl's wound to help stop the bleeding for a moment, and the man gave a slight nod before what seemed to be a speaker rang out over the town. ”Attention Fairy Tail and anyone else out there come if you are in need to be evacuated or have civilians who need to be evacuated my ship can take you lot to safety . In a moment I will be sending up a flare look for it and meet me there.“ 'Fairy Tail? That's a little offendsive...' Hana thought giving the man a  curt nod and walking back to the group. "If I may share my opinion, I think we've stood here long enough. What more can we do to help now?" Although the question was meant for everybody, Hana's determined gaze was pointed at heero. She knew that she could trust in him to make the right decision, and that decision would be what she relies on.[/color]

Heero kept himself knelt down, as he noticed something....approaching fast, through the clouds. It seemed to be some kind of rocket, or machine. As he was knelt he felt someone else run up behind him, and grab onto him. As soon as she got close, her smell alone told him who she was. With a smile, a shot of Alyia holding Heero from behind was shown, as he would inhale and exhale.

"Wouldn't be a bad idea to freeze time for the second time right now eh? All though I may pass out, it might be worth it to stay frozen like this forever...am I right?" Heero joked with a smirk, as he began to recover a lot naturally after using so much Magic Power.

Nodding upward for her to look, as a very fancy ship did a complete U-Turn, and stop at close range, it's thrusters spinning all around for this type of spacecraft to make that kind of sudden stop. Kicking to a total stop, the ship loomed, as a large ramp extended down. It's thrusters vibrated the air above Lamia Scale's guild hall a bit.

The sound of people running up and around the area seemed to exceed that of the loudspeaker with Kite's voice on it booming from the large airship, that looked more like a starship hovering just in front of Lamia Scale with an evacuation ramp extended.  

People were literally pouring up into the Lamia Scale guild at this point. As several people who saw Heero's feat before hand rushed into the guild, they also seemed to be thanking Alyia on the way by. So there were some survivors, good. This was beyond catastrophic.

'Water....'

The sound of it overwhelmed him as he stood up with Alyia still on his arm, looking side to side out at the sight of Rising Water in Hargeon. Stepping forward again, his mind raced as his cool blue, but at the moment panicked eyes moved side to side, racing for a solution. Sweat visible on his brow from Fairy Sphere. He understood the spell now, how it worked. He could forever encase Hargeon and maybe even a bigger area forever in time, freeze it. Stop it. But that wouldn't save anyone.

As he was kissed on the cheek by the red head, her words resonated in his mind.

"Thanks...I don't know what to say." he would blink at her and raise an eyebrow at her, because he didn't really know her yet. "But...at a time like this, I'd rather you help out, people are gonna be drowning out there soon if we don't get them to the high ground..." nodding as he turned around, a sideways shot of him between Alyia and Ariel was shown.

As people asked him for a plan of action, he quickly addressed his group.

"We're going to split up and save as many lives as we can." Heero replied to Hana.

"Gamon. I need you to get to the underwater sections of town, cover your body in Iron and Sink. Explore houses underwater, rescue anyone you can. It may be a grim task, but even when this is all over, we may need your talents to recover the bodies of peoples loved ones..." since he was speaking to another Dragon Slayer, he added, looking down and to the side.

"If I froze the town in time again like that....it would never be unfrozen, and that, wouldn't solve anything. Or save anyone. I'm counting on you to save those in the Underwater Section of town, as many as you can, as fast as you can, your job is more important than mine. Report back to me in the dry section of town, when you and Hana are through." looking over to Hana, another Dragon Slayer of Fairy Tail. The Ice Dragon Slayer, he smiled at her.

"Hana......I know the power of the Ice Dragon is new to you, but believe me, if you tap into it, this entire town will be frozen solid in 30 minutes or less...and too cold for any water be around. Stay with Gamon, and make sure to keep him out of trouble you hear?" he basically told her to unleash her full power, and not to hold back as she usually did.

"Sorano, I need you to come with me and Alyia. The town is pretty dry, but I want to check for survivors. Gamon is gonna check the underwater areas, I'm sure he can handle that on his own...we'll check the sections of town still dry." with a nod toward her, Rose would smile and raise a paw at Sorano.

"Looks like we'll be working together again, Sorano-chan." Rose swished her tail. "What about her?" Rose would say as she had her arms crossed, nodding at Ariel. For awhile, no one said anything. As Heero merely raised an eyebrow at her.

"Well since she hasn't gone running away screaming onto a ship or into the Guild Hall yet, I'm assuming she intends to help." Heero would say giving Ariel a small smile, but turning to Alyia with a worried look at the next moment. He didn't really want her in any danger, and for some reason he was starting to get a bad feeling the closer these two got to each other. Like two lionesses. Something was bound to happen.

At this moment, Heero got wind of a converation inside of Lamia Scale, a loud one. His Slayer hearing easily allowing him to hear through walls. Apparently, some normal citizens, people without Magic were considering sacrificing themselves to power some wizards Magic. However, the wizard seemed to be one of some kind of composure and thought, or just down right not wanting to help out yet. With a mixed facial expression of disappointment, and concern; a shot of Heero and Niyol was shown on a split-screen at this moment in time as the camera would then show them all on the steps of Lamia Scale.

He could have sworn that he had seen Alyia with another girl earlier, but it seemed she'd run off somewhere. For now, there was the mission at hand.

"Let's go." Heero said walking up to the edge of the Guild Hall, he would leap forward with amazing velocity, at their Ranks, Alyia would have no problem leaping just as far and keeping up with him, even though one leap would be horrifying to a normal human.

Sorano probably wasn't far behind, as Rose flew along with them. As the group would search through the dry areas, of town, Heero could see people still coming out of their houses, still evacuating.

Time had frozen, and the wave had disappeared. People were still figuring out that danger was still afoot. As his group would land amonsgt the people still evacuating the dryer area of town, likely leaping down from rooftops, they would likely look around.

"Alyia, Sorano, you girls ever see any creature that looked like that one out in the ocean? I've trained with a few Gods myself and that thing is ugly as hell. Kind of beautiful though too in a monstrous kind of way, ha...uh....kidding." he asked them specifically, because Alyia was an actual person who had once before died, an Angel. Who had seen all types of different creatures. Of different realms as well. Sorano herself, was perhaps even more studied than Alyia which was a feat to be sure, and knew pretty much everything as far as Magical Creatures were concerned.

"It must be some kind of Kraken or something...." Rose said swishing her tail as they walked into a rather dry and empty section of town. "Is it me or did it just get...quiet around here." either the dry section of town was already evacuated fully, or something bad had happened here. As a shot of Rose, Sorano, Alyia, Heero, and Ariel was shown.

Hargeon grew more and more chaotic as all types of people and mages came into the scene. Sorano's vision was flooded with auras, and she had to squeeze her eyes shut, and slap the sides of her head a few times to try and make things easier to see. When that didn't help much, she looked for a calm anchor aura to use, and found that not surprisingly, Rose's emotions were in the least turmoil. Even Heero's usually calmer, steadier aura was darkened with worry. Rose's emotions, on the other hand, were fairly straightforward and Sorano could hang onto it to keep herself from being swallowed up in the ocean of panic everywhere else. Breathing in and out a few times, Sorano opened her eyes to see Heero giving out orders, splitting the Fairy Tail mages into groups. Sorano sighed a little at the thought of not being able to work with her team, but knew that the ice and iron dragon slayer would be better suited to those roles.

She nodded at Rose's comment, and her gaze swiveled sharply to the redhead at the older exceed's inquiry. Sorano had the name of what that woman was just at the tip of her tongue, but couldn't completely identify it. However, the letter mage's instincts screamed danger about the woman. Unlike what might have been expected from the weaker mage she appeared to be, the redhead's emotions were rather confident. Disdain was also prominent, wreathing throughout the aura. Out of the corner of her eye, Sorano could see that Alyia seemed to have qualms about the newcomer as well. But then, everyone was so worried, who knew that the worry staining the Angel's aura was about? Sorano couldn't read minds after all.

Sorano listened to her guild master's question about the creature within the waves, and tilted her head to the side, thinking. "It's magical aura was too much for my senses to handle, or I would have tried to delve deeper into its aura to figure out what species it belonged to. However, I don't quite believe it was a kraken. It seemed to have a few somewhat human-like components, while krakens are more like gargantuan octopi. Otherwise, I don't think I've read of anything quite like that before..." the letter mage trailed off, seeming to drift into thought. The creature had to do with the water... There was that wave... And this queer aura of the redhead that made no sense with a normal human's behavior, and the fact that her aura reminded Sorano of the ocean a bit...!

On the same line of krakens, Sorano had begun thinking up of all types of ocean creatures by habit. Sirens had been one of the first few. Then, the letter mage's mind flashed to that song from before... A theory rose up in her mind. Could the redhead be a siren? Sorano decided that the best person she could mention her theory to was Alyia, who should know all types of species, including sirens. However, as she turned to look for the angel, she found that Alyia had run off, towards something? Someone? Sorano couldn't be sure. "Alyia-san--!"

The letter mage looked back at her guild master, wondering whether to follow or not. She then looked in Hoshi's direction, knowing that the exceed understood emotions better than her at times, and might know why the angel had run off. She also wanted to tell Hoshi about her theory, but with the redhead so close by... Sorano didn't dare. If the girl was a siren, then she could possibly be dangerous and the letter mage didn't want to risk a thing. Hoshi flew up high, looking for the angel, and returned with the news, "Alyia-san is talking with some other blonde woman, I think she may know her from somewhere!"

"Heero-san, you know Alyia-san well, should we go after her?" Sorano asked, trying to predict her guild master's decision. She could guess the redhead's almost right away, she didn't think the redhead liked Alyia around very much.

The young dragon slayer stood there waiting for his Guildmaster to hand out tasks or to come up with a plan of action. Gamon looked out across Hargeon. The town when to hell quickly. The damage could have been worse though. If Heero did not use Fairy Sphere, the town would have been flooded completely over by now. The town was not in the clear yet, the water kept creeping higher and further inland. Gamon's emotions started to change. The sense of helplessness slower turned to anger. His anger drove him crazy. He could not stand by anymore, he had to jump into the action and help out. He held back on the urge to run off and join the battles below. Gamon had put all of his trust into Heero. He knew that Heero would come up with a plan, that would benefit everyone.

The sounds of the ship was almost deafening as it came soaring in. Gamon watched as it would come to a complete stop. He had never seen a ship like that before. It was pretty impressive, but just looking at it made his stomach churn. Gamon had to turn away form the ship to avoid from getting too sick. He watched as people would rush over to the ramp that lead to the ship, from the Lamia Scale guild hall. Luckily Kite would be able to get some people to safety.

Heero was on his feet and was looking out at Hargeon. Gamon could see his eyes moving quickly every which way. The red headed girl approached Heero from the side and placed a kiss on the side of his cheek. Gamon would just stand there blinking, not to sure on what just happened. Truth be told, he was kind of jealous. Stuff like that never happens to him. Heero seemed to just brush off the kiss like it was nothing. The Fairy Tail guildmaster turned to the group. He addressed Hana and Gamon first. Heero gave the two dragon slayers of the Flames of the Phoenix team, their mission first. Their mission was to go to the underwater section of the town and look for an survivors. Gamon tried to hide his excitement behind a serious face, but was doing a poor job at it. It was about time he would get to help out. "Aye, sir! We will do our best!"

Gamon grabbed onto Hana's hand and sprinted in the direction of the submerged part of town. Tykva would fly behind the the two slayers. Letting go of Hana, he would stop on a hill that was on the edge of the rising water. Gamon turned to Hana with a serious look on his face. "Alright, so here is how it's going to go. I will sink to the bottom and try to look for people. I'm going to need you to follow me above the water. If you can, make a raft or platform, so if I do find survivors down there I will have a place to take them. Get it? Got it? Good. Now, I'm going in, yell for me if you need anything."

With a bright flash Gamon's body would turn into a iron scales. He backed up and got a running start before jumping into the water. He quickly sunk to the bottom and hit the ground with a distorted thud. He looked around at the subaquatic town. It was eerie looking at it. Everything was still, almost like it was frozen in time. He was unsure of where to start. Gamon made the decision to check the house to his right first. Then systematically go back and forth checking each home thoroughly, but as fast as possible. He would also need to go up for air every now and then so he doesn't pass out.

Abilities Used:

The flare was high in the sky leaving a streaming trail of his white flames, anyone within close proximity of the ship would have absolutely no trouble finding the current location of the ship. WIthin moments of his announcements a parade of people migrated towards the tail spin’s location. Kite was standing right at the end of the ramp and was guiding the people up the ramp ”Stay calm everyone, one at a time.“ he said to the group of people as they poured into Tailspin filling up her cargo bay at a rapid pace. Despite the large amount of civilians who had taken him up on his offer for a ferry away from the chaos he had taken notice of the distinct lack of high concentrations of magical energy from those who had boarded the ship, there were trace amounts from the people and items but none that matched the caliber of a guild mage which lead him to the conclusion that the mages from Fairy Tail must be preoccupied with the situation on their end. The demon slayer could see the end of the line ”Good, this went smooth. Smooth is good.“ he said followed by a sigh, but before he could formulate his next move sound of people speaking to one another inside the cargo bay was drowned out by the sound of a wailing child, which caught Kite’s attention right away,most people couldn’t hear what exactly the child was going on about but due to his ears Kite was able to make out what the whining child was crying about “M….Mr….Mr….bunny!” As he heard it his lips matched the full complete word ”Mr Bunny?“ he asked himself puzzled and looked back at where the flood of people came from only to see what looked like a stuffed animal laying on the ground, the sight of which made him smile ”Makes sense, any child would want their best friend in a situation like this.“ Kite was about to move out to pick up the rabbit but was stopped upon hearing the sound of his crewman’s voice over the loudspeaker “ Cap, looks like we have all aboard are we clear to take off?” This prompted Kite to turn his attention to the panel and walked over to it and put his hand on the press to talk button ”Spin up the engine, there is one more passenger to extract“ he said before he exited the ship, the turbines began to rotate quickly but not enough for lift off. Kite felt the increase wind pressure behind him as he walked out and stood over the limp stuffed rabbit and looked at it before crouching down to scoop it up ”Mr. Bunny, you left your partner waiting for you.“ he said to the inanimate rabbit before he stood up straight and made his way up the ramp to enter the cargo bay making his way over to the boy with drying tears in his eyes. Kite poked the little boy on the shoulder which made him turn around slowly to look up at the much taller man but he dropped to one knee and held out the rabbit by it’s torso in front of the boy ”Is this little guy yours little man?“ the boy nodded instantly before snatching his bunny from the Demon slayer hugging him tightly, which prompted the demon slayer to pat the boy on the head ”No more crying right?“ he said as he stood up to make his way to the panel and pushed the button for the receiver ”Okay, We are just about ready, I gave you your orders, stay close by and have the Yammato cannons ready to fire at a moment's notice. Drop these people off and then come back and wait for fifteen minutes, if no one shows up assume that everyone is safe and divert to the original plan. “ he said right before pushing the button to close the ramp and exited the ship for the last time during the crisis.

Kite didn’t look back as the gust of wind shot around him as the ship took to the sky and headed out with the passengers but he did smirk ”You had better not scratch my ship or you pay for a new paint job.“ he said jokingly but the time to joke was soon cut short, he began to sense two strange presences, one in the direction of the Lamia Scale guild, and the only just a ways off from him. The presence at the Lamia scale guild caused the most amount of urgency to be felt through his body, the signature was purely demonic but if that was all then it could be ignored considering the current situation happening out at sea but this was no garden variety demon, no this one held the same caliber that a high demon would carry. The second presence was eerily similar to that of his old friend Ardere, the flame God Slayer but it was different, it would also warrant him to seek out the origin of it but there was so much going on, ”Great, what do I do first?“ he asked himself weighing his options ”I can either Check out either of the anomalies or I could meet up with Fairy Tail.“ Kite looked back from both signatures but after going back and forth twice he stopped and looked dead ahead at the towering beast that was just out at sea. Kite’s eyes narrowed ”The Demon seems contained in that location and I don’t see anything on fire. Maybe it would be in my best interest to randevu with Fairy Tail for now and get an actual idea on what is going on.“ He said heading towards the strongest source of magic nearby which was of course heading towards the guild hall, the same location as the demonic signature. ”Two birds one stone.“ he began to sprint in that direction keeping his focus on the large magic signature over the Demonic one but as soon as he reached the signature something terrible occurred, the ground shook and the building that was once the Lamia Scale Guild hall crumbled to the ground with nothing but the a tree standing tall above the debris. His eyes widened as he had finally caught up with the blue haired man as he up on the rooftop where he was standing with some of his members though one ran off in a hurry which caused one of the girls to ask if they should go after the one known as Alyia. ”and I was trying to do was catch up to get a report on what the hell is going on..but I guess it’s safe to assume that it’s hell that is going on.“ Kite said to the Fairy Tail mages rhetorically. Part of him wanted to act on his Demon slayer instincts but something about the battle that was occurring inside told him otherwise. He nodded to the members of Fairy Tail that were before him in respect ”Hi.“ he said simply to them all before getting down to business. ”So Fairy Tail guild master, what are your people’s tasks at the moment? “ he asked wanting to know what their moves were so he could coordinate with them properly.

Hana gave a curt nod as she had been instructed to go with Gamon to find any survivors. However, Hana's calm composure wouldn't last long as the obviously excited iron dragon slayer pulled her away from the crowd and to a hill which had lead the way to the drowned part of town.
"Alright, so here is how it's going to go. I will sink to the bottom and try to look for people. I'm going to need you to follow me above the water. If you can, make a raft or platform, so if I do find survivors down there I will have a place to take them. Get it? Got it? Good. Now, I'm going in, yell for me if you need anything."
Gamon didn't give Hana anytime to reply as he dived in, his body being incased in iron allowing him to sink down. "Well Tykva, we got our orders... come on, we should hurry it up before we lose him." The silver-headed girl had told the flying exceed. She thought quickly and looked at the water before her. She guessed she could make a raft out of ice... however it won't be very easy to keep people from slipping off... "Oh well... better then none..." Hana placed her cool hands on the water's surface, instantly freezing it and hopped on hoping it was thick enough to hold weight.  Luckily it was, but now there was one question... how was she supposed to get anywhere? Hana's crimson eyes scanned the area, looking for something she could paddle with, and instantly, they fell on a couple of broken wood beams. Not the best, but they'd have to do. "Tykva, grab a wood beam and start paddling with me. It'll be easier to follow Gamon if we both put some effort in our work." She addressed the flying cat, to where she simply just nodded and grabbed her palms onto the biggest piece of wood she could carry. The two just sat rowing and conversing as they followed their teammate from down below. Hana took another glance, and began observing the area around her, it was horrific. Their we're broken pieces of buildings floating around, baskets, clothing, toys, fruit, anything that could possibly float had outstandingly made it's way to the surface.  Hana picked up a now dirty rag doll and looked at it with pity. This is not what she had in mind when she thought of traveling but then again, it was life. The council had sent her out here for a reason and this was it. Hana's mind then drifted off to the rest of her fellow guild members. Had they been alright? She could only hope as she thought of how Heero, a brother figure, had wasted a load of magical power on stopping that wave. Then she thought of something else, it was that one woman, the one with red hair who looked to be a mage. Who was she? Certainly, Hana had never seen her before. It looked as if she had almost been competing with Alyia, trying to take Heero away, but then again, she looked as if she was scared. It confused Hana greatly and she didnt want to think of it anymore, so she decided to take her mind off of it by observing the area further and looked to see more rubble surrounding her. Looking beyond that further, Hana's nose picked up an unfamiliar scent. A survivor maybe? Yeah, it was. Focusing her eyes, she saw a woman floating on a wood beam a few yards away. "Tykva, I found somebody. Try and bring them towards the "raft" and I'll try to get Gamons attention. There's most likely to be more survivors down there." Again, the exceed flew off and towards the passed out woman, and Hana immediately began  getting to work on notifying her teammate. Since they were both dragon slayers, Hana was well aware that if she were to just call out he would be able to hear, and that's what she did. Cupping her hands around her mouth, she faced down towards the water where Gamon had been searching and yelled "Gamon! Get up here! We found somebody!" Now it was time to wait. Hana sat on the glacier of a raft and watched on as Tykva handled the woman,  hoping that Gamon had gotten the message.

At this point however the entire game would change, as Kateri attacked. The barrage she unleashed struck the gargantuan in the chest and continued pounding, pouring on more and more damage, until the stream of rounds punched out the back of the beasts chest, leaving an absolutely gaping hole in its body from this one attack. Gargalrax seemed to freeze up, its tentacles freezing and loosening their grasp, allowing the armored nun and the civillains to escape its grasp. The spirit hawk would cut through several tentacles unstopped, and every attack would strike the beast for its maximum effect as the monster stood there, seemingly stunned by what had just happened. Blood poured from the wound, flooding the very sea with black, loose tentacles falling from the wound like loosened parasites.

The tentacles began withdrawing from the shore, all across the city pulling back into the water, as Gargalrax began falling backwards, toppling like the mightiest of oaks. The beasts fall could be seen all across the city, and for a time it would seem almost too quiet, too calm, as even the giants magical signature had ceased to exist. Another massive wave of water began rushing towards the city as the beast fell, its sheer size displacing millions, if not billions, of gallons of water in a monsterous wave. But that was it. All other attacks by the monster ended.

Heero would look around from the rooftops with the rest of his guildmates, plus one. The town seemed to still have so many stragglers who hadn't evacuated. Heero was beyond disappointed that they chose to stick to their guns at this moment. He also felt a bit of pride in them as he watched them now evacuating; up to their knees in water. He watched a father being passed his kids on piggy back by their mother who shortly joined them in the streets.

"It's OK, this whole place would've been underwater if it wasn't for you." hearing Rose's voice, he'd turn to his left and look down at the Exceed. Just looking at her made him feel better sometimes.

Although he only nodded, his expression brimmed with satisfaction and hope. Sorano and Alyia both told him in their own fashion that, they'd never seen anything like the beast. Which worried him. Even Sorano didn't know? Before he could look back to Alyia to talk, after she'd shook her head that she also had no idea about this beast; she took off running suddenly.

In a rapid series of events, Heero stepped forward after her but the entire town rumbled as the screen would zoom out; showing Sorano, Heero, Rose, Hoshi, and Ariel still on the rooftop as Alyia leaped off the roof and ran through the streets in slow-mo. The camera would center on Lamia Scale which seemed to crack and spike with some kind of Magic from the inside, intensifying the cracks until the whole guild actually crumbled sending a huge plume of dust and horrifying screams into the air.

Heero's eyes would widen as he heard the screams even more intensely as a Slayer as the smoke plumed higher and higher into the air; Kite's Airship approached. As Heero seemed stunned as he watched Lamia Scale just fall into dust right in front of him on the roof. As Kite questioned him, he couldn't even unfocused himself at first to reply.

"I......two Dragon Slayers from Fairy Tail are out now rescuing drowned, drowning, or underwater people......I hope they're alright." he said somberly but seriously to Kite, but his attention was diverted once more.

As a huge series of gunshots drew his attention, his Slayer hearing a curse and a blessing. He'd turn toward the ocean, as the seven mile high being with it's tentacles reaching easily more than football fields seemed to be being shot by something. Squinting with his Slayer sight, he saw a mile ahead as a green haired mage spun and peppered the monstrosity before unleashing a monstrous shot from one of her guns that actually punched a hole in the being. A Lamia Scale wizard.

As Heero unfocused his Slayer sight, he would feel a hand on his shoulder as Gargalax tumbled epicly in the background. He stared into Ariel's eyes for a moment, a serious expression on his face, as he looked toward Sorano.

"Go after Alyia, keep her safe." Heero would then take off his signature scarf and tie it around Sorano. It fit her well and reached past her knees behind her. "If anything happens to me, that scarf means you're the leader." he would smile at her looking down at her with pride. "No matter what happens, if it comes to using your Magic, don't hold back and don't over think it...find Gamon and Hana as well after you find Alyia, make sure they're safe. We'll all meet back at that bigass tree in the middle of what used to be Lamia Scale....keep that scarf safe, my sister Alye gave it too me, I'll get it back later" he knew it was super enchanted, but he wouldn't tell her.

As Gargalax hit the ocean in the background, Heero would turn with a sweatdrop as all sound was overtaken by another huge wave headed towards the town.

"Holy shit not again...." Heero would step forward and inhale, exhaling deeply. Preparing yet again to use some form of high magic, until. Rose would step forward, extending a paw across in front of Heero.

"Don't worry about the wave, I'll take care of it." the cat said, as a shot of her with a hand out swishing her tail with a hand on her hip was shown. Heero would blink in surprise, as Rose closed her eyes and continued; the sound of the wave intensifying. "As much as I'm leery of new pretty faces appearing in desperate times, red over there is right, you should go and check out the situation at Lamia Scale." Rose would then hold her hand up to the sky; as an insane amount of Magic Power filled the area.

Equal too or beyond Heero's, as a full weather freakout combined with the snow from the destruction of Lamia Scale, went off, wind, rain and thunder appeared as Rose continued to hold a paw up; before all of it disappeared, as a Golden Light rocketed down into her hand as the weather returned to normal besides the snow.

The light would twist and snap into a fine longsword, too long for an Exceed but light as a feather. It had wings twisting for a hilt and guard, and strange runes in Edolas language on it. She would whip it around herself once, and hold it out as it sparkled once at it's tip.

"Go." she said, as Heero would nod. He would turn to Kite.

"You're coming with me to Lamia Scale." he would then put a hand on Kite's shoulder as he would grab Ariel date style; taking off in a train sized bolt of yellow lightning that went upward behind Rose on camera who stood with her blade ready, facing down the approaching wave.

The Exceed would look at it once; assessing it before her white wings would appear on her back in a rainbow colored flash. Taking off in a helix of wind behind her, she arced off at a crescent into the sky before a stream of wind was shown going off to the left. As Rose flew off the horizon; she would near the sunset as she saw the very end of the wave; spinning and landing on the water with a skid, her wings would hum with a vibrant light as Max Speed would kick in.

Taking off with a huge sonic boom behind her; from afar a golden light was shown literally cutting the wave in half as a white light traveled through it. Water went upward, and some dropped downward in the huge displacement; as Rose was shown at the end of the wave; sliding to a halt back on the beaches of Hargeon as the wave fell in an intense rainshower behind her.

At Lamia Scale, a gigantic yellow lightning bolt the size of a huge house would strike the ground as a group of about 20 people who had survived sat crying hysterically at the edges of the rubble. The wizards who had arrived were smoking slightly, from lightning travel, but it wore off harmlessly without any damage to their clothes. As He, Kite, and Ariel stood now in front of what used to be Lamia Scale. Now it was just a mile of rubble with a gigantic tree in the center; although it looked pretty fantastic amidst all this carnage.

As Heero heard the words 'mom' 'dad' 'daughter' 'my kids' screamed over and over, he winced and balled up a fist. There were no words to console them at this very moment, as some of them looked toward Heero and began to cry even harder. Heero's fist was balled up so hard he actually drew his own blood as it leaked down his fist.

Turning to Kite, he nodded to him.

"If we can collect the bodies...I know a Dragon who can bring these people back to life. With just a whisper of her breath." Heero spoke of course of his Auntie, Grandine the Sky Dragon. The only other Dragon who had taught him Magic besides Zeuslogia, the Thunder Dragon. "It may take me awhile to find her after all this chaos is over....but it'll be worth it."

Turning back as the camera panned over the rubble, Heero sighed as he Kite and Ariel were very small compared to the leftovers of Lamia Scale. There were probably thousands buried under it.

"But we don't have time now to go grave digging...after the battle, we'll work that all out...for now; we should head towards that gigantic skyscraper of a damn tree...if anyone survived that then they'd have been near the tree...." Heero said as he somberly stepped over what seemed to be a mile of gravel, that used to be the Lamia Scale building, every now and then a hand stuck up through the gravel or a foot. Heero kept his focus and continued to walk towards the tree through the grim scene.

He could erase all the rocks from existence with Fairy Glitter, or suck them into a Black Hole with his Heavenly Body Magic. His mind raced for ways to clear the rubble later, after the fighting was done as he literally stepped over it.

He wondered how Sorano was doing, as he reached for his bare neck not used to not having or wearing his scarf. Gamon...Hana.........Alyia. What the hell did she go running off for? How could she do that to him? Leave him all alone? Then again...he'd done the same thing to her when he rushed off to use Fairy Sphere and save Hargeon in the first place. He knew whatever it was was very important...since Alyia usually would never lose her focus or her cool and run off like that. He almost couldn't take his mind off of her.

As he walked side by side with the Sabertooth wizard, the two would finally near the tree, as Ariel was shortly behind them. He would help her down off of the rubble, into a magical grass clearing that seemed to have escaped damage.

A huge crowd of survivors came running out from one of the sides of the tree and approached them yelling happily as they ran across the grass. Heero looked upward.

"Damn this thing really is massive." he resisted the urge to sparkle and say 'that's what she said' as he continued to inspect the tree. Sunlight literally cut through it's branches beautifully from underneath it. As it looked like a ninjas dream as one could hop around it's branches all day. Hell one could even build a town up there the tree was so large.

As the people neared the three of them, Heero pointed a thumb at Kite and explained that he had an Airship to get them to another town, where they could get a hotel and likely calm down. When they were done freaking out about meeting Heero and another wizard in person, he told them that some others survived near the front.

With hope in their eyes, the group took off across the gravel that used to be Lamia Scale, leaving Ariel, Kite, and Heero alone at the Zuo Tree. As the sound of their footsteps faded.

"Well...it looks like that cat of mine for all her sass managed to actually stop the wave, Hargeon is safe for now, I just hope the others can handle those damn monster sharks...heh who am I kidding, once Leonard, Decayuss and Ardere get going, those things are done for." Heero would cross his arms. Once again, Shuhei was missing. He was definitely acting strange lately, and his absence in the defense of Hargeon solidified that in his mind.

Arms crossed, and deep in thought, a shot of Heero ignoring Kite and Ariel for the most part was shown as they stood at the Zuo Tree, he kept his arms crossed and stared at the ground in thought; the weight of leadership falling upon him as his mind raced from subject to subject.

His clothes was identical to Natsu's with a long black tunic and white kung fu pants on, complete with a set of samurai sandals minus his usual purple scarf since he'd lent it out to Sorano to keep her safe.

He wondered when Rose would come back, or if she'd try to meet up with Alyia first. Since the cat was likely worried about her too.

Rose actually had already sensed Sorano's magic power following Alyia's and found the youngest wizard in Fairy Tail; as Rose flew along side her, as she came down from above after cutting the giant wave in half; flying alongside Sorano, she noticed her wearing Heero's scarf as it flew in the wind behind Sorano as she moved.

"Well damn! Don't you look like the boss lady in charge!" Rose smiled as she flew alongside Sorano, who was now accompanied by two Exceeds as they headed toward Alyia's magic power. Rose also wondered who the heck Alyia had darted off after at a time like this.

Sorano's eyes suddenly widened, and the girl whirled around only to see the building that had been Lamia Scale's guild hall suddenly collapse, releasing a puff of dust and debris everywhere. Two figures, no, things, stood in the ruins, looking rather foreboding. However, the emotionless girl's expression quickly returned to normal, even after screams ripped across the sky, bouncing off her mental barrier where it would have pierced deep within another's. Then, another figure approached Heero, asking him about any mages' tasks. Listening to all this talk, Sorano would do her best to help people who were nearby, forging splints by magicking planks of wood, and wrapping up wounds with fresh bandages her Solid Script could easily produce. Hoshi would help, carrying loads of bandages to other people who could walk and were helping as well.

THOOM. A sudden sound caught everyone's attention, drawing their gazes up towards the waters. Something seemed to have occurred with the huge kraken-like creature who had towered over them all a moment before, and people all over the devastated city watched with horror and joy as these monster fell in slow motion, causing a huge wave to begin to erupt from its landing point. Hurrying back over to her guild master, Sorano opened her mouth to ask what should be done, when the redhead started telling Heero he shouldn't go after Alyia. Sorano was immediately suspicious, for the woman's aura broadcasted joy and contempt, something too unlike the situation. If only there was some way, any way to alert Heero!

So, she could barely keep from yelling out a warning as he slipped his special scarf around her neck, one that Sorano could see had threads of magical energy running through it. She barely paid attention to much of the things Heero said, but nodded once, firmly, before whispering, "Take care, watch out for red temptresses." It was the most she dared to say, seeing that the potential siren stood nearby. She hoped that the sincerity she put into her expression would be enough, and she angled her eyes over towards Ariel for good measure. Then, she leapt into the air, letting Hoshi grasp the straps attached to her back, and they flew off to find the angel.

After travelling a short distance, Sorano realized that the wave had never hit. Turning to ask Hoshi for her thoughts on this oddity, the letter mage was surprised to see Rose flying along beside them. "Well damn! Don't you look like the boss lady in charge!" the exceed remarked, looking over at Heero's scarf trailing off Sorano's neck. "O-oh... Do I?" the letter mage could only say in response, unsure of what else there was to say. "Hey, Rose-san, since she isn't here now, could I ask of you what you think is up with the red-haired woman? I have a theory that she may be the siren who sang that melody from before. At the very least, she has no good intentions. She was showing pure joy at the death of innocents, and contempt at everyone else," she ended up saying. It felt rather good to get her feelings out, without having to fear anything.

Soon, the trio would arrive where Alyia and Venir were talking, landing nearby. The two women seemed deep in conversation, so neither Sorano nor Hoshi were sure of what to do. Finally, Sorano spoke up, saying, "Alyia-san..." before trailing off, with no idea of how to continue. "Heero-san told us to come and find you."
