Zeref was laying against a tree, his left hand was slashed lightly. Blood was dripping from his fingers.
Zeref: He could have killed me…
Zeref spoke to himself, Zeref raised up his hand and looked at his own blood.
Zeref: But… why did I run away? I should have been happy right?
Zeref went into deep thoughts, his hand had already started to heal, and it was not because that if Zeref had any healing ability, it was because of his curse.
Zeref: No… no, no!! I cannot die by someone else's hands. I will only die by Natsu's hands. Yes… I will only accept death if he does it…
Zeref clenched his fists, his wound has already healed. Zeref got up from that place with a serious and determined look on his face and walked away.
~BACK IN THE CUBE~
Axel exited the Cube and patted his clothes to blow away the dust. He looked everywhere and saw that the battle was already over. Axel saw all the girls a little bit away from the Cube and they had two Ice Cubes in front of them. It was Keyes and Silver.
Axel: What happened to the others?
Erza: They are already dead.
Ur: Axel, there are some interesting things I learned.
Axel: Oh… is it related to these two?
Ur: Yes… The skull man here revived Silver here through Necromancy against his will.
Axel: Oh…
Ur: And, more so he is Gray's father who died in Deliora's hands. So, I thought could you truly revive him?
Axel: Ok… break the Ice.
A huge smile appeared on Ur's face, she happily nodded and shattered the Ice Cube. An unconscious Silver dropped on the ground. Axel kneeled beside him and his Magic Power erupted and Cara's mark started to glow on his chest. After a few moments Silver's body started to glow. After some time the light dimmed and disappeared. Axel got up from the place and backed away. Silver opened his eyes and Ur explained to him what has happened.
Silver: Thank you, Axel… for what you did. I would forever be grateful…
Axel: No, need to thank me like that. Now, what to do with this skull man?
Ur: I will kill him.
Ur touched the other Ice Cube and it shattered into nothingness.
Cana: So, what are we going to do with that?
Cana asked pointed towards the Cube, the base of Nine Demon Gates.
Axel: I am going to vaporize it…
Irene: No, there is no need to punch another hole on Earth. I will take care of this.
Axel shrugged his shoulders and backed away.
Irene: Universe One.
The whole Cube was engulfed by the Earth and soon disappeared.
Erza: Now let us go back, I have lots of paperwork.
Mira: Of course Paper Slayer.
Erza: Fuck You…!!! #@#@#@#@#@
Erza started to chase Mira with swords in her hands, Mira kept dodging her with a gentle smile on her face. Erza again started to curse like a sailor. Irene's eyes turned dark and turned towards Axel.
Irene: I blame you, Axel, stop teaching Erza weird things.
Axel: She has a talent though.
The next moment a lump appeared on Axel's head. Irene hit Axel with her staff.
Ur: Silver, are you ok?
Everyone turned towards Silver who was bleeding from his ears.
Silver: Uh… what. After I heard her curses, from the next moment I couldn't hear anything.
Everyone smacked their faces, Silver's ears started to bleed after he heard Erza's special vocabulary.
Axel: Erza, stop chasing Mira and Mira you stop making fun of Erza. Erza you will kill Silver like this and Cana heal him.
Both Erza and Mira calmed down and Cana started to heal Silver. After Silver was healed Axel made a huge Ice Ship and everyone boarded it and they started to fly towards Magnolia.
The ship was slower than their flight speed so it took some time for them to reach the Guild. It took them a few hours to do that. Axel landed the ship behind the Guild, all of them went inside and the Guild became completely quiet. But one of the Guild members was affected the most. He completely froze and tears started to fall from his eyes. Everyone was completely shocked to see Gray like this.
Gray: Is… is it really you?
Silver: Yes, …son it is really me.
This time the whole Guild froze and several things dropped on the floor. Gray walked towards his Father who opened his arms to welcome his son but he met with a punch on his face. The whole Guild was dumbfounded to see that.
Gray: That's for leaving me, you bastard…!!
Silver: Sorry son, a lot happened. Let's talk somewhere else.
Gray: Fine.
Both Silver and Gray walked out, after that Erza announced that they won against Tartaros, everyone cheered. Erza gave them permission to have a party for today and she went into her office to complete her paperwork.
Mira: Let's help her, after that we can have a party together.
Axel: I also think the same.
After that, they also went upstairs while the rest of the Guild was in complete uproar. Axel and the girls looked at the happy members and a smile appeared on all of their faces. They may be killers, murderers, ruthless killers but they were fine being called like that since whatever they did their family, their Guild was filled with happiness because of this. They didn't even mind if their own Guildmates would move away from them, but if they were happy the rest didn't matter to them.
