[Haruta]Okay here goes nothing
with the darkness and black mist warping around the boat, everyone began pondering on what exactly he was doing, confused they grabbed him, holding on
[Haruta](it's not working,damn it, no way, i won't lose to some pesky council)
with the odds stacked against him he looked at everyone, as they stared at him with worry and pained expressions it came back to him, words made from his conscious mind "you couldn't save us?/ what happened, you were too weak?/ useless.....USELESS/ no wonder you died, you and your past self will never be strong" closing his eyes he felt it the over surging pain he felt at this very moment, the overwhelming feeling that he doesn't want to fail "give up/ your a failure/ STOP TRYING LET THEM DIE"
[Haruta](no, i won't fail this time, i'll get them to safety, i won't...fail this time)ARGHHHH
with a loud roar the mist covered the boat as it disappeared, along with everyone, travelling through pitch black it was only for a few seconds, till everyone appeared on a shore like beach, surprised they all looked around, however as they looked forward something was missing, what they held, what there hands were holding wasn't there.
[Erza]where is he.....?
[Lucy]Haruta.....?
[Natsu]wh...where is he...?
[Gray]come on, this....this isn't cool man
[Simon]is he.....is he still there?
[Happy]Haru? Haru?
[Juvia]no way...
[Wallie]where is the dandy man
staring at the spot he should've been in they couldn't help but betray there mind and think he is fine, if they got out of course he would.Meanwhile back at the Tower of Babble.
[Haruta](huff) (pant)haha....you see that, you see i....(pant)got them out, me.....(huff)so i am no failure, i saved them
smiling away he spoke to the skies looking at his hand as his mist and lightning died out sighing away he looked at the tower as bits and pieces started exploding, closing his eyes he waited for the eminent moment of death. Surprised it seemed as if all noise was cut off, opening his eyes slowly he looked around, his injuries gone, his fatigue gone and his sorrow gone, walking around he suddenly felt it, the pressure, the pressure of a king?, no a god?, no this was evil this was the presence that of a devil.
[Unknown]Vaal'un ruuk sa'no(do you want to live)
as his knees gave out, he fell to the fall, as if this were normal prostrating himself to this creature, he clenched his hands as they were lodged to the floor, he tensed his legs that felt as he took a run for years non stop, his mind stopped with working only with one thought in mind "DEATH" is all that came to mind when he saw this creature.
[Unkown]E'lano dok Vaal'un ruuk sa'no(i ask again do you want to live)
[Haruta](cough) wh.....what a...re (huff) (pant) you?
[Unknown]Shi,eve no'lun rukado(i am you, you are me)
[Haruta]i....i do...n't under(pant)stand
with this creature, it finally stepped out of the dark shadows revealing itself, it was shaped as a shadow the same as Haruta, it was his shadow, no it was safer to say it was him, however it's eyes red and glowing, his aura of mist as if covering the world, he gave off the pressure as a true king.
[Unknown]be....better? un...under...understand?
speaking the same language as Haruta, he retracted all the pressure that was just given off, washed away as if never even there, able to stand Haruta took to his feet, wiping the sweat that covered his face, the blood that was spat from his mouth.
[Haruta]what.....what do you mean do i want to live?
[Unknown]i can live you
[Haruta](it's like talking to a toddler....)i get what you mean but how can you help me?
[Unknown]Na'lu ma'len no duskay Za'nu ruk u'tei(simple, i grant you protection for something in return)
confused suddenly as if something entered Haruta he felt pain all over, aching he clenched his teeth together, black claws grew from his fingers as he started clawing at his flesh, his body turning a black misty colour, suddenly his body turned a black coat of mist with his eyes gleaming red.
[Unknown]Sha'dave(be seeing you)
with time turned back Haruta, like a shell just stood there staring at the explosions of the tower, as it finally reached him exploding he still stood there "BOOM" being blown into the water, the mist warped around him as if a protective barrier, floating away.Meanwhile at the beach
[Natsu]DAMN IT,WHERE IS HE!?!
[Gray]calm down, he's probably just somewhere else, we can't say for sure he's still there right?
[Happy]AYE, if it's him he'll come back.....
[Lucy]yeah, no doubt about it he probably is just somewhere else guys, he has to be
[Simon]i trust his strength but i do-
[Gray/Natsu]Don't say it/Don't even think of jinxing him
[Wallie]Back off boys, before you get into something you don't want
[Miliana]STOP IT GUY'S
[Natsu]what you think you can take us huh?
[Lucy]haven't you had enough yet
[Gray]oh i'd like yo settle the sc-
[Erza]ENOUGH!!!
shutting everyone up they looked to her direction, surprised and stopping there little feud
[Erza]as of now Haruta is missing, we should search for him, if he is nearby and was teleported somewhere else than we should look for him, Wallie,Happy and Miliana make sure Jellal is kept here
[Miliana]okay big sis Erzy.....
[Wallie]you got it Erza....
[Erza]Natsu,Gray you checked on the north side of the beach me and Simon will go south
[Lucy]im just gonna take a break okay
[Juvia]i'll go with Gray, i can check the surroundings with the sense of water
[Gray/Natsu]yeah we'll go/with Gray again (sigh)
as they started bickering again well they left to look for Haruta, Erza and Simon left for the opposite direction, walking down the night long beach, a perfect moon shone upon the sea, shinning brightly and beautifully with the sway of crimson red hair that fluttered like rose pallets in the night Simon was truly in shock that Erza gave off.
[Simon]Erza?
[Erza]what is it? see something?
[Simon]no, i just, it's just can i tell you something?
looking up she turned to Simon with a worried look Simon looked at her with pureness in his eyes
[Simon]i know this isn't a good time however, may i tell you how i feel?
[Erza]of course what is on your mind Simon?
[Simon]i have.....i have always had very deep feelings for you ever since we were slaves to the tower, i know how you feel towards Jellal, and i don't intend to get in the way, but i just wanted you to know how i feel, sorry for my selfishness
[Erza]i see, you held it in for a very long time, i do not know how i feel towards Jellal anymore, however as of right now, we should be looking for someone, more specifically the one who saved us
nodding they both started looking for him again.However back at the boat, currently Wallie and Miliana were chatting about cat's and dogs, for whichever one was better
[Miliana]NO LOOK AT THIS CUTE LITTLE WITTLE CAT
[Happy]AYE, im very cute
[Wallie]no way dogs are more better, there real dandy at finding things and can do tricks you got me
[Miliana]no way dogs are always barking and are really scary
chatting away they hadn't realised it yet but it seems Jellal was awake and pretending to be asleep, waiting for an opportunity to slip away, as the two started arguing he found the perfect moment to leave, quickly getting up he activated his magic Star burst, quickly knocking them out he left
[Happy]oh no.....Erza not gonna be happy when she gets back
Meanwhile with Natsu and Gruvia.....
[Gray]hey Juvia got anything yet?
[Juvia]sorry my darling but im not picking up on anything
[Gray]how about you....lava brains, pfft(Haruta, we better find you)
[Natsu]the hell you call me, coldie
[Gray]huh, that's not even a word or an insult idiot
[Juvia]i don't mean to rain down on your parade but im picking something up
stopping they both turned to her, as she started moving along the shore lines, they made it to what seemed it was nothing but a boat sailing across towards a port
[Natsu]thank's for nothing
[Juvia]bohoo
[Gray]don't need to be so harsh man
travelling across the sea, it seemed to be a black like cocoon, or a shell, as it came across a large ship, the on viewers saw this, that were the men on board, it seemed it was the magic councils ships
[Member1]captain seems we have something in the sea, not sure what it is
[Captain]bring it up, seems something is inside men
[Member1]bring up the net, reel it in(to Member2)
[Member2]okay, bringing up main net
with the net bringing this ominous object up, they pulled it onto the ship looking at it, the captain came down to see it, moving out of his way he seemed interested in this black like mist object, bringing his hand touch it suddenly his hand turned black and started to feel pain like needles stabbing his hand
[Captain]ARGH what is this thing, contact the council, have them check this ominous object
[Member2]yes captain
leaving to one of the rooms he contacted the magic council, telling them of what they had found floating amongst the sea, surprised the council told them to bring it to them at once wanting to find out more about this mysterious object and where it came from.
[Member2]yes, however may we ask why is it so important to bring it now?
[???]you see that mist you are talking about is black correct?
[Member2]well yes sir
[???]good, than that is all you are to know
[Member2](but you didn't say anything....)
disconnecting the call the crew member went back to report what the magic council spoke off as the captain grew suspicious of this object he decided after a few moments to listen, setting course to Hargeon port, they estimated to arrive within 3 days time
