"Cirki???" Natsu says. Aside him was the two dragon slayers of that Sabertooth guild, Sting and Rogue. They were on the ground. Gray was beside Natsu.
"Don't ask. Who you fighting?" I say and look at who they are fighting.
"Someone we have to defeat." Gray says.
"I beat him. Igneel told me to."
"I'm guessing he's one of the demons from the book of Zeref?" I say.
"Look at what he is holding Cirki." Natsu says. I squint. My eyes grow wide.
"There are to many shocking stuff today aren't there." I smile. "I finally found it." I say under my breath. Mard Geer was holding the book of END. Now everything clicked. If face activates, they just need the book and then End can be revived. The irony.
"That book is mine." Natsu says. "Igneel wants it."
"Really?" I say. I sigh. "Well we must get it then. If face activates that thing is needed to revive END. We can't let that happen."
Mard Geer was on the ground. I turned on my godslayer form and placed four eater swords on his hands and legs to keep him from getting up. The eathernano will suck up his magic as well. I take the book from him.
"Y-y-you smell like Zeref." Mard Geer mumbles. I glare at him and walk back to Natsu and Gray.
Gray had some marking on him. "Give me that book!" Gray says.
"What the heck Gray. Its mine. Igneel told me to-"
"Give me it. Ill destroy it right now." Gray says.
"Calm down." I say. "I see you got some new nifty devil slayer magic, Gray."
"I inherited it to defeat END since its told that END is a fire type mage." Gray says.
I nod in agreement. "You're absolutely right." I reach them and look at the book. "You'd be very disappointed and would probably regret your actions if you even do any harm to this book." I tell both of them
"Its best we give it to Igneel."
"Igneel is dead." Natsu says. He looks down. My eyes grow wide. I look up. I was to busy with my back towards Achnologia.
Only Achnologia is in the sky now. "How? What in the world."
"He's gone. The other dragons.. i can sense them. They turned off FACE. Now theres only this which Igneel wants to destroy.. i think." Natsu says looking away.
"If Igneel isn't here then lets destroy it right now. Natsu you would want to right." Gray says. Natsu looks at him.
"That's true. Igneel wanted to destroy END a long time ago." Natsu says. "Maybe ill read the book first then we can destroy it." I look at both of them. I grip the book tightly.
"Absolutely not. Igneel couldn't destroy END. He chose not to." I say. Again they throw me confusing stares. "Its-its because Igneel knew who END was. They knew each other." I say.
"How do you know this Cirki?" Gray says.
"I just know okay? If you open it, END can be activated. If you destroy it, you would regret it. END is someone who will make you shocked beyond words." I say. "So lets just keep this book okay? One day you will realize how important this book is to both of you."
"Okay. Fine." Gray says. I hand him the book. Just then the book disappears. I look behind me. Crap. He's here. I immediately teleport 100 meters away and put on my Eathernano crystal. I make the swords on Mard Geer disappear. I sensed my father right away. I looked at the book reappearing in Zeref's hands.
"Where did she go?" Natsu says.
"Natsu look." Gray says.
"That's him." I hear Sting and Rogue.
A black cloaked figure appears with the book of END in his hand. It was Zeref. My intuition was right. I put on my hood. This is not good.
"Sorry." The melancholy voice of my father rings out. "I'm taking this back. Its important you know." I looked from under my cloak. Am I running away? Zeref looks at the fallen Mard Geer. "You did good.. trying to revive END."
Mard Geer tries to get up. "I wanted to fulfill your wish-"
"That's enough. You may rest." Zeref raises his hand and Mard Geer is summoned back into his own book. Zeref heaves a big sigh and to everyone's horror he burns Mard Geer's book.
"What are you doing. Isn't he one of your creations?" Grey says. He was shivering. I was too. Why am I running away? Defeat Zeref now. Get END. Some part of me is saying its not the right time.
"I wanted to finish my fight with you today, Natsu." Zeref says. "But Achnologia got in the way."
"Huh? What are you even saying?" Natsu says angrily.
Zeref's hair covered his face. He smiles. "If you survive this situation.. ill give you more dispair." I look in horror at my fathers face. His eyes were red. Like 400 years ago. On my birthday. When he killed my mother. My heart was pounding. This is the second time i seen my father like this. Calm down. Calm down. I sigh. Zeref disappears.
"Zeref..." Natsu says. But immediately after that Natsu and Gray have already moved on. "Ive decided to become stronger and defeat Zeref and END." Natsu says.
Gray nods. "Lets meet up with everyone else."
Sting and Rogue get on their feet. "We have to see m'lady"
"But first." Natsu turns around and catches my eye. "What are you doing?" I stand up and smile.
"We will all get strong. I am going to go see master." He did not unleash Lumen Histoire. Its a good thing but what stopped him. Natsu and Gray looked at me confused.
"I don't know who you are but you're our family." Gray mumbles. I smile.
"Everything will be explained. I promise." I teleport to Master. He was with Lumen Histoire back in the basement.
"I guess it was not time to use it." I see Mavis's ghost form say to master. He nods.
"Mavis." I say. She turns around and her face beams in delight.
"Cirki!!" She gives me a hug.
"I'm not surprised you two already know each other. You probably met each other when Mavis was alive." Master says. Mavis winks at me. I laugh.
"You may be right. I say." I did see her the day I met Larcade. It was the truth.
"Cirki." Master says facing me. "Ive decided to disband Fairy Tail. I will tell the others later."
