Chapter 10

Where on earth could I begin?
This utterance we shall have today will be on a specific subject. A perilous subject that should be left avoided if must. A rarity anyone would dare cross that metaphorical line and let greed consume them. Letting knowledge seep into the mind, is a curse to those who know. Better to stay ignorant.
Where on earth could I begin, when speaking of Mavis?
Her true form? Her true form?
I do not think anyone knows the proper and right answer. For there are two. 'Mavis The Creator' and/or 'Mavis The Destroyer'.
Mavis is Order. She was a spirit who loomed over your dimension and desired more.
The Universe was fabricated by her own power. She was the one who formed the Heavens and Earth. She was the one who structured the stars and constellations. She created Demons and Angels. She was the one who sought for life with end and therefore, the beginning of Mankind began.
Yet everything has an opposite. Chaos ruled your dimension before Order overthrew it. The Omnipotent being who ruled never changed. Chaos simply changed to Order.
Mavis was Chaos. Chaos The Destroyer.
The one I, Zeira, fell in love with.
The darkness I descried all those millennia ago, the incurable immoral and foulness embed deep into her the roots of her essence were merely her past self.
Mavis is Order. Zeref was Order. Mavis was Chaos. Zeref is Chaos.
Under the title Order, comes simple things such as Fairness, Kindness and Righteousness.
Zeref- formerly Order- resided in a dimension with no beings. He constantly battled with Mavis for power and control over the deserted and empty reality with only Chaos and Order as inhabitants.
These constant battles went on for eternity.
Zeref may of been Order yet he had not shown any traits that proved that the title was his. After battling, 'Who was who?' He often pondered. He detested the mere idea of being Chaos after he sought for Order to rule for so long. 'Was it all for nothing?' He did not want to lose the title. 'How can it be proven?' That task was not as effortless as it seemed.
Gods do not change their nature. Change is only a gift you humans are given. However Zeref yearned for a little difference in their usual routine.
As Mavis swooped in to begin their usual fights, Zeref spoke.
"If you were someone else, what would you be?"
A question often asked. So simple yet so complex. Catches one off guard. How would one answer the question. Mavis hadn't a clue what to say. 'Change' Was something foreign to her. Zeref had done something unusual. Something that she was not used to. A question? A question she had repeatedly thought about which was a rarity, thinking about something other than ruling the reality they loomed in.
"Why ask such a question? Why do something different? Something pointless and trivial that wastes time!"
"You act as though we have time to waste. You act as though this constant routine of fighting hasn't bore you already. Why I ask? I simply wished to know..."
"Answer your own question first! What would you be?"
"Someone who's kind, fair and right."
"You are Order, are you not? You are most certainly all of those things you listed."
"When have I ever shown fairness, kindness and righteousness? What would you be?"
"It's ironic... I would also want to be someone who's kind, fair and right.... Me? Chaos? The complete opposite of those words! Those words... Who is Order... For both of us have never shown those traits."
"You wish to be Order?" Zeref asked finally.
"Yes."
Zeref placed his hand onto her essence and began to speak once more. "Then let me show you the kindness, fairness and righteousness you deserve and that I shall give. I shall make you Order. This way we both become what we want."
"You fool! What are you doing? You will become Chaos if you do this?" Mavis threw him off her and dashed back. She wanted nothing more than to be Order, but she respected Zeref. He did not deserve her title.
Thought it was too late.
Zeref had taken all the chaotic fragments in her essence.
She became Order. Future Creator of the Universe.
Zeref became Chaos. Soon to be exiled from all realities but one...
A story only known by four...

A/N: have you noticed. It's not really obvious now but all chapters have an opposite. All except the first two and prologue. If you can figure out how... Here's a clue: the last chapter about Mavis was called 'definition of beauty' and this is called....?
And do you know who the "four" are? The four who know?
