Lucy : Michelle what are you doing!!
Natsu : What did you do to her!!!
Lara : Interesting...
Byro : What is going on??
Byro : You had an enemy among you??
Natsu : Michelle!!! All of the things you said as Michelle were a lie??
Lucy : No it can't be...
Lucy : She... That's right she must be controlled by magic!!!
Byro : I'm afraid that's not it...
Lara : That's right... I didn't sense magic activating other than the one dispelling her form...
Lara : In that sense, you can say that her current form is the true Michelle... Or was it Imitatia??
Imitatia : Byro, i don't have to remind you of your mission to collect the parts...
Byro : That was under the orders of Lapointe who control the Archbishop...
Imitatia : You are wrong...
Imitatia : I myself works for the bishop as i was granted authority equal to his...
Imitatia then proceeded and pulled out a piece of metal which Byro recognised as the golden seal that gives her the authority to give him orders.
Imitatia : Although you failed into retrieving the clock eventually it fell on my hands...
It was then that Lucy noticed the clock part missing and being in Michelle's hands as she still believed that Imitatia is Michelle...
She started walking closer to her wanting to know more about the truth of the subject only for her to pull out a sword and when Lucy comes close to her, she knocks her down unconscious with the back of her sword.
Natsu : You!!! What are you doing to Lucy!!!
Jackpot : She is crucial to our plans...
Jackpot : Now it would be best for us to Kill Natsu as he is weakened...
Macbeth : We can do that another time... For now we need to leave as it will alert them...
Natsu : Return back Lucy!!!
Natsu charged forward with white flames in his fist and before he could collide with Imitatia, his flames Vanished and glared at Byro who stood up in front of him...
Natsu : Move!!!
Byro : I can't with that seal on her hand she has become something akin to a Queen of the church capable of ordering anyone...
Byro : If you wish to go after them defeat me first...
Natsu : I defeated you earlier!!!
Byro : Well the score got even out...
Byro : I beat you on the valley you beat me here...
As Natsu was blocked from going after the others, he suddenly felt a spike of magic and Lara who was watching waved her hands and Lucy appeared in her arms as her eyes twitched...
Then a few hurriedly footsteps could be heard coming from somewhere and soon Natsu picked 9 familiar scents...
??? : Noooo!!!!
??? : God damn it we were late!!!
??? : This place is in ruins...
??? : Joe, what did you expect to find here??
Joe : The enemy that keeps running away, Allan...
Allan : But look even miss Lara is here and they did escape, that means its a test for us and we have to find them on our own...
Lara : Ara, ara, miss you say little Allan, thank you...
??? : Huh, boys always talk instead of work when necessary. Isn't that right Tina??
Tina : Like always Lilly...
Lilly : So Noel can't you use your magic and like Teleport us??
Noel : But if i do that directly they will likely found out...
Noel : If thats how we are going to blame each other then Noah could snipe them away with his Bullet Magic...
Noah : I couldn't, I can't shoot someone from 10Km away...
Joe : Not to mention Chris couldn't set up traps for them since we were far away...
Chris : Oh but i did... As we were rushing here and hopefully they stepped on them granting them small gifts each time...
Chris : I even got help from Erion, integrating flames in them...
Erion : So if they fall inside them we would see a few flame pillars rise up to the sky...
Tina : At least a few of them are not trying to find excuses... Right, dad???
Ryouji : -_-!!!!
