The Prophacy Revealed(Invite Only)

Deep in the ancient ruins a shadow was moving in the darkness his ruby eyes seeing with absolute clarity even in the pitch black halls. The area of the ruins Sol had found were extremely old dating back to before the creation of guild and even the magic council itself, Somehow at this point in time the ruins had unsealed themselves and in doing so set off a pulse of magical energy that was noticeable to only a select few most noteably the dragon slayers as the pulse felt very close to their own magic. Sol was the first on the scene since he had been close by gathering some toxic mushrooms and plants and now he was deep inside one of the buildings.

The walls of the ruins were covered in the language of dragons or as some of the slayers would know it Dovahzul or dragon tounge.”These entry's are very old and full of interesting facts and knowledge but something tells me there is more to this then meets the eye” the poison shadow dragon mumbled to himself as he headed deeper into the halls his new wings were folded behind him and his tail stayed straight so it didn’t damage the records. What Sol didn’t know was that as he had entered this area very old magic had been set forth to prevent any from doing battle in this area, not that any slayer would this was as sacred as a dragons burial ground no dragon slayer would dare disrespect this space. Stopping for a moment and sitting Indian style in the corridor the slayer pulled out a few mushrooms and started to eat them to regain strength.

The Ancient Ruins of Fiore. A national landmark, that even time mages had trouble uncovering the origins of. It stretched for miles, easily the size of the greatest cities of the next age. With tunnels and caverns every so many feet, decrepit castle ruins, of all kinds.

Of all places, she wondered what she felt from this area. Thanks to her Exceed, she flew high above the landscape of Fiore and eventually, came to the place that they felt a magical signature unlike any they'd felt before from. Rose, the Exceed, and Hera the fire mage as usual. The feathers of Rose's wings danced in the breeze as she carried Hera under her arms as usual, Well....this magic power is definitely coming from the ruins...but it feels like...I don't know how to explain it but it feels like my own magic. Hera thought to herself as Rose dipped downward at over 100MPH, creating a spiral once before landing, Hera leaping down just beforehand.

"This place is where you felt the weird magic power coming from right? The fact that you could feel it coming through Earthland's portal on Tetsukazu...another planet at that." Rose raised an eyebrow at Hera, crossing her arms cooly as usual. The Exceed would then follow the 13 year old Slayer as she found herself walking for over 20 minutes in seemingly random directions through these ruins. "Um....an explanation would be nice?" her Exceed said as she walked next to her. Hera then went on to explain that it felt like Dragon Slayer Magic was being used here, but clearly there were no mages within sight. She also went on to explain it didn't feel like it was coming from a person, which led Rose to believe maybe there was some kind of treasure emanating the power or Hera was onto some kind of trail. "I see.....well, we should-----ummm who is that?" Rose said as she pointed a paw forward, Hera then caught sight of the back of Sol, slipping into a set of ruins up ahead. The walls and ceilings were partially destroyed, but the ruins towered overhead like some type of temple or church.

"Sol...?" Hera got curious and jogged after him, leaning her back against one side of the ruins entryway until his footsteps echoed well off ahead, given they both had superhuman hearing, tailing him would be nearly impossible. Leaning from behind the side of the entrance, she would follow him inside.

Eventually, even catching up, as Sol was just sitting in the middle of a huge hallway with draconic runes on the walls, some were so old they looked like scratches, but it was the language of dragons. He seemed to have some kind of snack.

Hera would approach him with a "Drem Yo." a slang version of the draconic gretting; saluting him and walking right up to him, sitting across from him with her legs folded straight ahead like she was on the beach, leaning back on her hands. The sound of the wind howling through the cave was all that was heard, and Rose's footsteps, walking around swishing her tail and inspecting things here and there. After sitting there watching Sol eat mushrooms for about ten minutes, she looked around.

"So, some people who knew how to speak the language of dragons lived here....those runes aren't big enough for an actual Dragon to write on the walls.....that doesn't mean a Dragon didn't live here, I'm sure there are larger chambers ahead!" Hera would nod and smile at Sol, her eyes moving to the tail wrapping around him, nice; she thought.

Hoping up and stretching, Hera would put her hands on her hips and keep them there. Walking around and inspecting things.

"Sol do you ever think....our magic is too dangerous to be used." Hera said, not looking at him, but keeping her hands on her hips, looking up and down at a wall and reading it in draconic. "I mean, it was created to slay dragons, not exactly to be used on regular people." she looked at him now, briefly, but shook her head.

Now, since she'd been back on Earthland long enough, she'd reverted to her true age as Heero's daughter. 13 years old. Her hair color was still pink, a mix between her parents; Alyia's bright white pink and Heero's deep blue.

"Look all I'm saying is we need to be more careful. There's no telling what'll happen." Hera had begun to see things a bit more clearly and was worried for Sol. He was beginning a transformation that would be frightening to a lot of people. If she knew him which she thought she was beginning too, he wouldn't stay in the dark forever. If he started some kind of war she would side with him, as over the last year she'd begun to see him as somewhat of a brother. But at the same time, she would always try to get him to make good choices, with Sol, that usually came down to "just chop off a hand, don't kill him" or something like that, but she knew there was good in him. Good was in all Kings just as Evil was.

"So are we translating this place or what?" she said, finally turning to him, stretching again.

Sol blinked in surprise when he caught the scent of the fire slayer and while he made no move to fight he was wary of her considering what happened last time in his caste.”Drem Yol Loke” he said quietly as he finished eating his poison mushrooms. “I wouldn’t surprise me that humans would build shrines and worship the dragons or the dragon gods themselves though to learn the language takes great skill” he said as he slowly stood and observed a few passages.”I do believe that there are bigger chambers and perhaps one of them was the reason we felt the pulse of slayer magic , we must remember though we… Are in a Sacred Space for our kind the eyes of the Dragon Gods are watching closely” he said the last part was very solomn as he could feel that the eyes of the deity were upon all In here.

The next question out of Heras mouth made the poison shadow dragon scoff slightly.”All magic is dangerous Fire Dragon but its up to the user use it to its fullest extent, our magic is the same .mages like you and myself and Akeya are strong because we know how to use our magic and we have the deepest connections to it, that’s why we have the ability to rip thru humans like they are paper” Sol explained with his eyes never leaving the tablet.”we will translate as much as we can but the main reason I’m here is to get some answers to questions I need answering and I believe that whatever set off the pulse of magic here has that answer” he added.

He motioned for her to follow before he slowly headed down the hall sniffing the air to learn where they needed to go.”Hera let me ask you a important question, I know your one to enjoy and protect humans but should the time ever come to fight them and wipe them out would you? If it was either our species or theirs could you protect your fellow dragons and sever all attachments to any humans?” he asked his tone was grave but he wanted to know her answer he felt it was important for some reason

As the two began to walk, Hera would walk side by side with Sol. The 13 year old much shorter than him, and his being somewhat draconic now; but somehow still handsome. His tail trailed behind them, as Rose walked shortly in front of the duo due to her height. As the Fairy Tail and Basilisk Fang mages walked side by side, the cavern grew darker.

Hera would then hold up one hand, as her entire arm up to her wrist became coated in brilliant orange dragonflame, to act as a torch. The sound of whooshing went off, but something else happened too. The runes on the walls all seemed to go alight with dragonfire briefly, and as Hera passed them; runes would light up, and dim as she kept moving.

Blinking to herself, as Rose awed. It seemed under dragon fire that the runes could be more easily read. "Like paper huh?" she commented on Sol's previous statement. Moving her torch of a hand upward so they could see as they walked. "Akeya....I wonder how she's doing." she said of the Shadow Dragon Slayer, hoping everything was alright for some reason, she felt it in the back of her mind. Perhaps it was a brood mentality that came with the magic, but she truly felt it for every Dragon Slayer she met. As she listened, she gave Sol a nod.

Walking in silence with him through the place, different runes lit up if Hera held her hand close to the walls while the flame still blazed. Her features, along with Sol's literally danced in an orange glow. Haunting yet beautiful. When he asked her a question a few minutes later, she pondered the answer. Rose also looked back, as she walked. Wondering what she'd say.

"Well....that depends on what humans become." Hera looked somewhat down into the flame and then the ground as she walked. "If humans become something that mages....even worse, Slayers, have to fear. Then I will fight...for magical creatures, and people like me." Hera said, holding the flame up higher from her face now as a torch again as they walked. "Not everyone is born a mage...hell it's like 1 in 2,000 people or something like that. So they outnumber us by the billions for sure.....regular humans vs mages......" Hera frowned at the thought of such an insane conflict. Raising an eyebrow curiously though. "But if they ever tried to hunt us Dragon Slayers, I will make sure they never lay a hand on any of my Dovahkiin, even....Frey." she frowned upon thinking of the Earth Dragon Slayer.

She couldn't wait to pummel her butt, honestly. But she only wanted to do it for personal reasons. Because she'd been like a sister to her, and betrayed her to Savage Skull and Marceline after discovering that she was Marceline's youngest child, thought lost.

"They aren't all that bad Sol, people born without magic are just like us in a lot of ways.....but also, just know that they'll never understand us." she said nodding to him. Personally, Hera believed they were just like them. As she said, but due to being born with the ability to use magic, some normal people wouldn't be able to grasp mages. She did know that their magic of all magic, was the most dangerous of all. She wanted to believe that it could be controlled, but her magic least of all could; she didn't want to control it either. Such was the nature of the flame. It was at it's best when uncontained. But also it brought wamrth and hope, two factors she also never forgot about fire. She also recently discovered she could use Sky Dragon magic as well, the healing arts of all Dragon Magic. Said to be able to heal wounds caused from an actual Dragon. So she knew that all Dragon Slayer magic wasn't bad it was all in the person that used the abilities, just as Sol said.

"So what exactly are you planning on doing once we meet this thing?" Hera said as the flames on her arm still guided them onward down a large hallway that began to spread out into a beautiful pillared area.

At the mention of the Shadow Dragoness the poison slayer shrugged.”my last encounter with her was in Talonia and she seemed to be fine we had a lengthy discussion about our dragonfication while soaking in the hot spring together” he explained keeping his eyes focused on the path ahead.  When the fire dragon slayer explained that weather she would fight or not depended on what humans became, she brought up the point that not everyone was born with magic  but also stated that  they were not all bad but they would never understand them.
"
That is the root of the problem Hera, most humans may not be able to use magic but they can still wield weapons, the best example is the country of bosco which has such high security and strength who knows what they have in those borders, think about it Fire dragon imagine if every human was able to wield power equal to a mage. Who is to say that once our race was considered a annoyance to them they wouldn’t try to wipe  us off the map to make it more convenient to them.” he said trying to make her understand just how severe the future could be. “I’m not trying to be biased  but  you must understand humans fear what they don’t understand, they will begin to hate and become jealous of those with power and if they cannot obtain it they will kill it so no one else can have it. It will happen Hera maybe not today and maybe not tomorrow but someday we will see it and that day we must be ready” he said with his tone becoming very serious near the end as if he could see the battle that would come.

When Hera asked him what would happen when they encountered the thing that released the pulse of magic and the poison dragon shrugged.”All I know is I need answers, my battle with Madison in Magnolia left me with questions that I need answers for badly” he said though he spit Madisons name out like poison.”to think that little bitch was a spawn of Acnologia, I hope she died of her wounds after our battle and if not then she better hope I don’t find her again not after the two curses I put into her wounds.”  he said before he suddenly grinned before he laughed.”To think she was dumb enough to try and devour my own blood  to use against me  I bet she is choking on it now” he chuckled  before he suddenly stopped in his tracks at was was before the two mages, it was a word wall and from the looks of it very ancient .”I never thought I would lay eyes on one of these, this had to be what released the pulse” Sol said as his ruby eyes held a look of wonder in them.

With a nod Hera would get a sort of satisfaction after hearing Akeya was still out and about. She wondered just why in the world, their transformations into Dragons were advancing so rapidly. Was it because they fought their emotions back? Hera had more magic power than them both, so she was utterly perplexed by this.

As she followed behind Sol, her eyes went to his tail; dragging along the floor at a careful slither. She then looked at his overall features and thought he looked somewhat.....cute. In a deadly way. With a small amount of blush on her face, the Fire Dragon Slayer moved her pink hair behind her ear on one side of her face. Who was she kidding, she was only 13 years old, everything else had been a lie. As the blush faded while she looked at the ground, she began to listen to Sol.

It will happen Hera maybe not today and maybe not tomorrow but someday we will see it and that day we must be ready.

For some reason, these words stuck with Hera. As she thought about Bosco. No one was allowed in or out of that country for the most part. Their shield was almost alien tech, and was impassable; surrounding the entire nation itself which was 3x the size of Fiore. He had a point. No mages were ever born in Bosco, and if they were they were "handled" as she heard. Whether that meant experimented on, or murdered; she had no idea. But it did sound kinda spooky.

"Well if they do try to invade Fiore, I'll melt all their guns and armor! Send an army it doesn't matter!" she said, punching a hand into her still flaming fist, which was their torch for the dark passage. Eventually, they would break into a HUGE room. With a wall so tall, they could barely make out the top of it.

"OK, so.......it's a wall?" As Hera said this, Rose would slap her on the back of the neck for being a smart ass. "This wall is old as hell....must've been heavily enchanted or spelled for it to still have Magic that strong in it after this long." she said rubbing the back of her neck from Rose's paw slap.

"Sol, what you said earlier about...Acnologia." as she said his name. She saw a vision of a HUGE black Dragon, blocking out the sun. Stomping on the ground towards her father's broken and bloody body, his blue haired face and visage looking back at her for a smile before the vision ended. "Please....promise me you'll kill him someday.......I know the rumors are that Ardere and Elyx took him out but....I was there that day, you should've seen his power." Hera actually looked down at the ground somewhat. For the first time, an emotion that she NEVER EVER released, something very unbecoming of a Fire Dragon, was smelled off of her.

Fear. Fear that she wouldn't be able to let go of the past, rather than fear of the Dragon itself. She felt she could possibly destroy him in single combat, where her father had failed. Which in itself was foolish, since her Father was renowned as the strongest mage to ever live in most parts of the world, thinking she stood a better chance at half the age was pride at best. Although supposedly he was slain, by she, Eris, Elyx, and Ardere; for some reason, she just felt they'd made the Black Dragon more powerful. But Sol, maybe he as a Dragon Slayer could affect the curse which held Acnologia together in the first place. He could only be killed by Dragon Slayer magic permanently. So once she and Eris left the battlefield, she had no idea how Ardere and Elyx disposed of him. She'd have to ask one day soon when she saw either of them.

He was after all cursed to live forever, even destroying him while alive, and then again as a zombie, was no guarantee without sealing him properly somehow. Maybe if Sol could poison him somehow, since normal poisons wouldn't work on him. Only the magical Dragon Poison would work. Just like her fire was the only flame that could burn him. Dragon fire. With a sigh, she thought about it. It would be impossible; they'd have to find Zeref to ask about the curse; which would be stupid to try probably, or they'd have to travel to the Underworld itself if Ardere and Elyx did succeed after Eris and she left the climax of the battle to those two; due to Hera losing control of her magic and putting them all in danger.

Find Zeref or journey to the Underworld to finish the soul of Acnologia off. Wonderful choices. For now, Hera was content that he was gone. Or told herself that lie and then let out a sigh.

"Well then, should I try setting the wall on fire? Maybe the runes will react like the other ones I passed with my fire." she said, waving her one flaming hand around a bit, making whooshing sounds.

Sol nodded at the fire dragons comments about what she would do if bosco  tried to invade. Truth be told the slayer was very wary of the country and it was almost impossible to get a spy into it but somehow he managed even if it was only one or two, he always made sure information from them was top priority. When Hera muttered that the word wall was just a wall the poison slayer got ready to smack the back of her head but the slayers exceed beat him to it. “Thank you cat” he muttered before he explained the wall. “these walls are far different then anything in these ruins, they are incredibly rare and etched by dragon talons themselves, whatever dragon etched this had immense power” he stated

As the fire dragoness pleaded for him to promise to kill the black dragon of the apocalypse  the poison shadow dragon caught the scent of fear off of her and he was slightly caught off guard, Hera was one of the strongest slayers he knew for the false king to make this kind of impact was concerning. He shook his head at her fear before he took a few steps ahead of her and into the stone circle inside the wall with his back turned to her. He took a breath before he  fully extended his wings out and turned to face her. His ebony wings open for her to see and his red eyes seemed to glow with power in the dark. “Fire Dragon I swear under the oath of the dragon that I will take my place as the rightful king and I will remove this dark stain from our race forever!. I WILL KILL ACNOLOGIA!!!!”  he declared with a roar at then end.

Sol knew how serious his oath was. To make the oath of the dragon was a solemn vow, to break it meant death  so he knew his fate was set before him. “Now Hera I ask you to make a vow to me. Should I ever  Fall in battle  and never return I ask you  make a oath of the dragon to me that you will protect my queen and my legacy from all harm  you are one of the strongest slayers I know I ask you this as your future king” he said his tone was serious and you could tell from the look on his face that he meant every word that he spoke.

When she asked if she should light the runes on fire to make them react and Sol just shook his head.”there is no need observe” he said as he gently released a pulse of magic and the runes started to glow a soft blue. From the center about both slayers a image of a priest appearked.”So the Blade of Annihilation reveals himself at last, perhaps now the prophecy regarding the false black dragon Aconologia can finally be fulfilled.” it said as it waited for them to speak.

Hera blinked as she waved her hand, sending the fire on her hand across the room. Lightning a bunch of brilliant torches everywhere she'd been noticing. For awhile, Sol just inspected the wall. But then he expanded his wings; obviously he'd head her loud and clear.

When he proclaimed that he would keep his promise to her. She couldn't help but to smile a bit. Maybe she'd set him slightly...down the path of redemption.

Rose smirked to herself as well as she watched all this. The Exceed was more calculated and thoughtful. He'd be a hell of a cool good guy...although his appearance. She sweatdropped a bit, but knew he would learn to control it the stronger he got. It happened to her only when Dragon Force overwhelmed her, a magical cicumstance that even scholars and some dragons didn't understand. Dragon Force was unexplainable, because the body of a human shouldn't be able to handle the actual power of a Dragon. Perhaps the Dragonification was the bodies way of coping with it. As she thought about all this, Rose would turn and notice Hera with her arms crossed now, no more flame on her arm due to the torches alight.

A huge shadow, dragon and very Batman esque was cast from Sol spreading his wings. The huge shadow actually looked something like a Dragon on the walls of the cave. Spooky. Hera thought to herself. When he began to speak about a vow, Hera blinked, but didn't move from her arms crossed position.

"Nani....what? A vow?" she would close her eyes, blushing as she listened to his passionate request. "I am the strongest Dragon Slayer in the world." Hera said keeping her eyes closed and arms crossed as she said this. "To be the King of Dragons, you have to be the strongest. For men, it's not that way. Maybe you could be the smartest, the most clever, the best liar. But for Dragons, you need might." she was wiser than she looked for such a little girl. She sighed to herself finally opening her eyes. But before she could speak, she heard a voice in her mind LOUD as if she was on the phone with it mentally.

"Hera. Be wary of this man. You may not be able to change him." out of nowhere, she was looking around for Igneel's voice as Rose looked confused as to what she was looking for. "Your father...was respected and loved by all Dragons. They feared he would be the second coming of the Dragon King. He certainly had the power to do so....across the stars he would fly, helping worlds of different candor. But even when he attained the power to transform into a Dragon, he did not rejoice. He rebuked it." Igneel would let out a low rumble of a jolly laugh in her mind. "We as all Dragons let out a sigh of relief when we realized he was not a conqueror, but a true king. A human who might be able to actually use and control the power of the Dragons for good." Igneel seemed to be smiling. Hera couldn't see him, but she could feel it. "Even during his final confrontation with Acnologia, Heero refused to unleash the transformation. He chose to cling to his humanity, it cost him dearly. Be wise, this man does not wish to understand and protect Dragons, and bring us back into society as your Father did. He wishes to turn us into his personal army, at his beck and call; just as Acnologia had tried too before I killed him the first time."

Hera literally was walking around mumbling to herself. As Igneel's voice seemed too disappear she began to freak out. Missing it already, she missed him. The giant thing. Revered as a God, the only Dragon to contest Acnologia and be the King. He was that to others. Just then a literal priest. Glowing. Like the Pope. Clearly a spirit, not a person. Floated out of the wall.

Before Hera could question Sol about his ultimate intentions, she would speak back.

"Anyone you care for, I'll keep them safe. I promise you that. But I'm Dragon Queen until further notice....until you're ready that is...truly ready!" she pointed at her own chest with pride, and a sweatdrop. She truly hoped he changed some before he attained the power her Father and Acnolgia had...the power she had. It could drive one mad. She had trouble containing it herself.........E.N.D.

"What's up with the pope?" Hera said raising an eyebrow, leaning to the side with her hips and crossing her arms.

Sol was rather glad that Hera had accepted his request and promised to protect his kin but when she called herself dragon queen untill she was ready the dark dragons eyes narrowed slightly before he turned back to the wall.”Very well then” he said simply. Little did he know that just like what Igneel had done his mentor Ballom decided to do as well and reached out to the girl.”Fire Hatchling have Faith in my son, misguided as he is and as dark as his heart may be. He has the well being of our race in his mind he always has and he always been one to make sure that Dragons were protected” he said before he went on.”Make sure above all else you keep your promise to protect his mate and offspring, they are his light and his heart without them I fear Sol would become a monster far worse then acnologia. they are what keep him in check and keep him from fully becoming a monster” it finished while flashing a image of Ahmoria before Hera so she knew who kept Sol sane and from complete madness.

The ghost despite the rudeness of Hera spoke again.” I am Virgil and I am a memory imprinted here to tell of the  great prophecy”   the ghost siad before Sol nodded and spoke.”Then please tell us Shade what is this propahcy and why summon some of us to hear it” he asked before the spirit nodded.

“In the time before the fomation of guilds and when Magic was scarce the dragon wars happened with one such horror Acnologia being born from this chaos, a man turned dragon from his bloodlust and madness who slayed friend and foe alike human or dragon.  The dragon gods above relized the dire situation that had been unleashed and they fortold of a dragon with scales of purest black would stand against the false king Acnologia and would end his reign forever.” Virgil said before he looked at Sol. “This dragon was called The Blade of Annihilation or The Blade of the Dragon Gods  and would end the black dragon of apocalypse and become a king fitting of the dragons themselves  and when the time came as well would bring an end to the era of man when they were meant to no live on this earth” Virgil explained before he motioned for Sol to show his back to Hera and himself.

The slayer removed the shirt he had on and revealed a very complex and glowing mark on his back.” You Sol Terumi are The Blade of Annihilation  and the one who will kill Acnologia.” it stated before Sol spoke.”But when is Humanity supposed to end how am I to know when their time has come as much as I dislike humanity I would rather not commit genocide just yet”the poison dragon asked he did not sound eager but mearly curious about when it would happen.”I cannot tell you that sadly but know that it is not from anger that the Blade cleanses humanity but by the duty of the Dragon Gods ” Vigirl explained. Sol stood there and folded his wings back up before he slightly looked at his hands as he thought long and hard about what he was meant to do and who he was meant to be.

Hera listened as she folded her arms under her impressive rack. Her long pink braid sitting over her shoulder along with her scarf. Sighing to herself, she looked on somewhat concerned as this image of an old mage appeared before them. She could tell it was tied to this place. When she heard something speaking to her in her mind psychically, she looked around unfolding her arms briefly. Another Dragon? It wasn't Igneel this time? Was it...Sol's dragon? The one who raised him?

After he was done talking, Hera would cross her arms again and look to Sol. He was looking at this all wrong. His own Dragons words had just convinced her of this.

Walking up to him from behind, she would look up at him.

"Sol, you can control your appearance. And your future." she smiled slightly, before explaining. "Up until now, you've been overcome with the blood of others, pushing your feral side as...a Dragon I guess. But if you remain calm, and focused on your goal, you can control your appearance and look nice and handsome again." she smiled at him. "It's how my Dad did it....and it's how Acnologia does it."

After a brief moment of silence between them, Hera would look to the apparation known as Virgil and then back to Sol.

"Your duty to cleanse humanity as your future supposedly says. Perhaps it's not the mass murder of humanity, with blood and guts, and innocents dead. Perhaps it's you cleansing the evil out of humanity, slowly with poison. An assassin against evil." Hera walked closer to Sol and put a hand out onto his shoulder, just before his wing. "Come with me to Fairy Tail, leave Basilisk Fang behind. There's still time to make up for the lives you've taken. We need a good assassin around." she kept a hand on his shoulder for a moment before removing it. "You said your job was to cleanse the evil of humanity right? Well...we'll help you track down the nastiest of em, the ones who make you want to throw up thinking about them. Then you can have your way with them......I have a feeling this path will lead to your fulfilling your destiny, not the one you walk now."

But she would fold her arms, and look away.

"Just now...I heard your Dragon talk to me in my mind, you need to trust me on this one. Otherwise you'll make too many enemies along the way, and never reach your goal....including me." she gave him a straight face for the first time in awhile, as they'd grown to become friends.

Sol listened to Hera from behind him as she spoke about controlling his destiny and his looks and Sol stayed quite since he was still processing what he had just learned from the spirit.however when the fire dragon put a hand on his shoulder and tried to convince him to join Fairy Tail over Basilisk Fang the slayers eyes narrowed and he shrugged her hand off of him.”I’ll find out the meaning of the prophecy in due time Hera but I’m not leaving my guild, if there is one thing I pride myself in its my loyalty to my guild and I won’t leave it no matter what you say or offer me” he said his tone held an edge to it telling the girl not to try asking that again.

Before she could reply he kept talking.”besides I have no intention of making up for the lives I have taken I feel no guilt for it and nor will I ever, I learned a long time ago that if an enemy or a target is in front of my then I’ll strike without hesitation if you don’t it may be your last.” he explained before her comment of his path not being the right one and that if he didn’t change it that he would gather to many enemys potentially her included to complete his Goal. At that he scoffed.”Hera I make my own path and walk it, your words and even my own guild masters does not effect it, since I have become a slayer and more I have made my own choices and my own path I won’t let Basilisk Fang nor Fairy Tail decided my destiny its mine to make for myself.” he said before he sighed.

“However something does need to be remedied” he mumbled before his shadow opened up and he pulled out a small card with a V on it. "Vulgrim I need something.” he said simply before a circle appeared before the two and a demon emerged from it and hovered in the air, it was a wicked looking creature with a sense of malicious glee to it.”Greetings Dark one I can tell from the scent of blood on your claws you’ve been busy so what can I offer you today” Vulgrim asked before spotting Hera,”huh so Igneels spawn is here what a surprise sadly I have no wares I can offer you.” it said before Sol coughed and then spoke.

“I need an item to limit my rage untill I have a better handle on it, if you have something I have payment” he said before Vulgrim nodded and from a blue portal he pulled out an emerald locket and offered it to the shadow dragon.

Sighing to herself as Sol refused her offer, she really worried about him now. His current path would only lead to darkness, Ballom and Igneel had convinced her of that. Perhaps he just needed a little bit more convincing or perhaps he would see it on his own. When he said he didn't even feel bad for the murders he'd committed, Hera had had enough.

"Sol! You!" as he pulled out a card with a demonic looking "V" on it, she would lose her temper, but not before some kind of crazy looking Ghost or Demon appeared out of a magic circle causing her to scream a girlish scream randomly and step behind Sol comically with a sweatdrop over her head.

When it said it had nothing to offer her, she would merely stick her head out from behind Sol's wing and comment.

"Like I'd want to buy anything from something as creepy looking as you anyway!" she said before returning her head behind Sol incase this thing wanted to retaliate for her statements. When it had finally stopped creeping her out, she would watch Sol put on an emerald shaped like a dragon's tooth, held up by a long silver chain.

"Sol....what you said before." she brought up the fact that he said he didn't even feel bad for what he'd done. "That is the stain on your soul, the real dragon in you is ashamed at your own behavior." she furrowed her eyebrows at him and locked on to him. Her deep amber golden eyes, against his dark red colored ones. "Right now, you have the reputation of a wild animal, a mad dog who does nothing but draw blood wherever he goes." she would sigh to herself. "That is not the reputation any Dragon should carry." she shook her head, her long pink braid swaying with her.

"A Dragon is a being that you look up too. Something that you wouldn't dare challenge due to it's power. Something that seems to have knowledge beyond your time, and will share it with you if you play your cards right." she smiled to herself, not even looking at Sol anymore. "A Dragon is more than just some wild beast, you do us a dishonor by acting this way. You're doing nothing but convincing everyone that Dragons can do naught but teach us to be wild and ruthless murderers. They aren't mad dogs, and they certainly would feel bad for imposing their power upon others without reason."

She would turn to leave as she tightened her long flowing scarf, and flicked her braid over her should. Nodding to Rose, who looked from Sol to Hera, upset but looked down and summoned her white wings, floating off up to Hera.

"Dragons are better than that." she said looking over her shoulder one final time. She said stepping forward a few steps, prepared to leave Sol by himself before she said one final piece. "Anymore senseless killing, and you can stop calling yourself a Dragon. Just call yourself a Hyena or a Dog. Because you behave nothing like a Dragon.....you have no majesty, or respect about you or the way you treat others....and a lot to learn about what it means to really be a Dragon." she shook her head, wondering if she'd been right or wrong about Sol all along. He was so stubborn he probably wouldn't even hear anything she said. Convinced none of her words would strike home, and Sol was just arrogantly going to continue on with his own quest she began to leave.

He thought his destiny was to purge humanity and rule Dragons. When in actuality, it was to protect humanity from the evil among itself. Sol was no ruler or leader, at least not right now. She did believe the Prophecy of the Blade of Annihilation was about him, but, she also believed and knew that he was misinterpreting it. He was supposed to be a great hero, and not a great ruler.

His mission was to cleanse humanity of their evil, hers was to protect humanity from evil Dragons like Acnologia. Igneel made her promise to at the age of 12 to use his flames to keep humanity safe; as Dragons were supposed to look after the lesser races. Something Sol had no clue about as he frequently tortured and killed others. Did Ballom truly teach him nothing about being a Dragon? Hopefully their goals didn't clash down the road. The sound of Hera's footsteps and her back leaving was all that could be seen as finally she disappeared down the torch lit hallways that they'd first come down.
