It's Laxus.
I never thought I'd be this happy to see him.
Isn't he the master's grandson?
[HADES] I see.
So you're a blood relative of Makarov.
♪
[LAXUS] How pathetic.
You guys got beat so bad you look like
a bunch of tattered rags.
No joke!
[ERZA] What are you doing here, Laxus?
[LAXUS] I came to pay my respects to
the first guild master.
I used to be a member of Fairy Tail too, y'know.
I was just planning to stop by Mavis' grave,
so this is a big surprise.
I certainly didn't expect to run into the second guild master.
I've got an idea, since you're already here,
how about I dig a grave for you, too?
[HAPPY] The Man Without an Emblem!
[HADES] My.
What a shame.
To think that poor Makarov would be burdened by such
a pretentious grandson.
Good.
I'm impressed with your magic power.
Not to mention your courage.
I didn't realize the boy had more than one pawn
of Gildarts' caliber.
[LAXUS] You know, that reminds me of something
the geezer used to say.
"Whenever you face a tough enemy it doesn't matter
how strong they are.
Standing up to them is what's most important."
Ain't that right.
Natsu?
[NATSU] Yeah, you bet.
Utter nonsense.
That's nothing more than a weakling's excuse.
Think you're strong enough to face me?
Then let's see what you've got!
[LAXUS] If you insist.
Defense Enchantments can't have
even the tiniest of holes, or they'll be rendered useless.
So double-check every detail.
It's my turn to protect you now.
Ya big lug.
If you have something to confess, then speak up.
It's not like that and you know it!
There you go.
You should lie down for a bit.
You need your rest.
[ELFMAN] Nah, I'm through with lyin' down.
Let me help you keep watch.
While you were out.
you kept talking in your sleep.
"Evergreen!
Evergreen!".
Weird, huh?
It's not what you're thinkin'!
[LISANNA] I'm just kidding!
You're so silly
[BIXLOW] Aw C'mon, would you guys please get serious?
[TOMMENS] Yeah, get serious!
You're one to talk!
Where've you been, slacker?
[BIXLOW] Getting rid of that guy with the glasses we knocked out.
We can't risk him using a Body Link spell
and giving away our location.
Good work, Bixlow.
We're just wrapping things up here.
[LEVY] You two should get some rest while you have the chance.
You must be exhausted.
[BIXLOW] After dealing with the guys who barged
into enemy territory this is a piece o' cake!
[YOMAZU] Pierce!
Bixlow-?
No way!
That's Eastern Solid Script!
[LEVY] Not him again!
Heavy Egg Rain!
It's an ambush!
[FRIED] They must've traced our whereabouts somehow!!
[LEVY] I thought Gajeel beat these guys earlier!
I Guess not!
[YOMAZU] Surprise!
Screw battle etiquette!
It means nothing to a warrior who's lost his blade!
Zubabababa!
The Enchantment!
Protect the injured!
Please let me fight, too!
No, you can't-
If we don't beat you down,
Master Hades is gonna be angry.
Real angry.
We won't let him down!
Besides, thanks to the bedlam you've caused our guild.
We'll be promoted to the Seven Kin of Purgatory
once we get rid of you and your friends!
No way!
Wait!
We have to restore the Enchantment first!
But, Fried!
Get up, Bixlow!
Take them out!
[BIXLOW] You got it.
Just leave 'em to me!
Let's go.
babies!
[TOMMENS] Go!
Sayth Magic?
Well in that case!
Boh!
[KAIN] Ow!
Cut it out!
That hurts!
[LISANNA] What's with him?
He's tough!
Well duh, of course I am.
I've reinforced myself.
Huh?
Wait a minute.
Didn't Happy steal that doll from you?
[KAIN] I always carry a spare just in case.
I call him Mr. Cursy the Second.
[LISANNA] "The Second"?
Being the skilled warrior I am,
I've already managed to get my hands on one of
your pretty, white hairs, yeah.
You jerk!
[KAIN] You ain't seen nothin' yet!
As much as I hate being defeated, I'll admit that
it taught me a thing or two.
Okay, Cursy the Second, turn into iron!
Listen, hot stuff.
If you wanna get back together with me, just say so.
What's with you?
You're not makin' sense!
Then you leave me no choice.
I learned this from the last guy who defeated me!
Metallic Rocket the Second!
[ELFMAN] Wha-?
Big Brother Elf?
[ELFMAN] Look out, Lisanna!
[KAIN] Isn't sibling love a remarkable thing?
Lots of girls tell me "I wish I was your sister!"
But I know they're just looking for an excuse
to get close to me.
Ouch!
Bet that hurt!
But ya shouldn't mess with one of the Seven Kin!
Now, you might be small fries but that's not gonna
stop me from destroying you!
We won't lose.
We refuse to!
We'll keep fighting.
Because we're Fairy Tail!
[MACAO] What's the hold up?
Why hasn't Romeo made it back to the guild yet?
Alzack and Bisca let him tag along on a job.
What?
They probably ditched him somewhere so they go make out,
knowing those two.
Those two makin' out?
Yeah, right!
Get real!
So, is it just me.
Or do we have a lot of new members?
Yep.
And that's a good thing.
We need a bunch more folks to handle all these requests
we've been getting.
Yeah, no joke!
Just look at all these fliers!
Why do you sound so excited?
You never go on any jobs.
Check it out, guys.
I've finished my latest routine!
I call it.
the "Supreme Dance"!
Way to go.
Dance your heart out.
Whoa, Droy!
If you don't stop eating you're gonna blimp out!
Nah, it's fine!
I eat a lot but I never gain weight!
Laki!
Long time, no see!
Yeah, I've had a lot of long-term jobs lately.
I'd stop binging if I were you.
Unless you wanna look like Reedus here.
Oui.
But the only reason I'm this big is because of my magic.
Hey Dad, I'm back!
Good!
About time!
Geez!
I can't even keep track of how many jobs you've been
tagging along on lately.
Well, What do you expect?
He is the son of a wizard.
It's sad to see that his dad's not the one
he looks up to, though.
Get off my case!
Aw, man.
It's boring around here without Natsu and the gang.
You wanna be just like Natsu when you grow up, dontcha?
No matter how many members we gain,
it always seems so quiet when they're gone.
Yeah, you can say that again.
We're without our best team the S-Class wizards.
and the Dragon Slayers.
We're still the strongest guild in Fiore but right now
we're missing our main forces.
No wonder it's quiet.
[NAB] S-Class, huh?
Do you think they might have a job only I could pull off?
I'd like to find something that really suits me.
Maybe you should just try one of the jobs
in front of you first!
It's time to quit staring at the board
and just pick one already!
Okaaay!
[ROMEO] I can't believe the S-Class trial
is happening right now!
I wonder how it's going.
[WAKABA] We've got another set of good contenders this year!
Which reminds me.
why did Wendy go along with them?
She was someone's partner, wasn't she?
No, wait.
That's not right.
Did master choose seven candidates?
Wow, you guys are getting old!
You've already forgotten who's competing this year?
Hey Dad.
You think Natsu'll win?
I can't wait for the next trial!
'Cause I'm gonna be an S-Class wizard for sure!
[MACAO] Hold your horses, kiddo.
You've gotta become a regular wizard first.
[ROMEO] Oh, I will!
I'm all fired up!
I'm afraid that searching as a group
isn't going to get us anywhere.
I think it would be best to split up.
[HAPPY] Good idea!
You're as smart as you are pretty!
By "split up".
Do you mean each of us search alone?
[HAPPY] Are you scared?
[PANTHERLILY] Absolutely not!
Let's split up!
[HAPPY] Alright!
I'm sorry!
[HAPPY] Uhhhh!
Maybe in here?
Geez!
What kind of freaky ship is this?
I am not afraid.
Not at all.
This one looks suspicious.
No luck.
So much for splitting up.
It was worth a shot.
I Guess we might as well continue searching as a group.
Sure.
That's fine with me.
Not too shabby.
You guys really know how to put up a fight, dontcha?
Mess with Grimoire Heart and you'll find yourself
in a world of pain, bok-kah!
It's time to finish you off!
Prepare to die!
Who did that?
[CANA] I've had enough of you guys.
You've disrupted the trial.
You've hurt my friends, and now you're attacking the injured.
If anyone's gonna find themselves in a "world of pain"
it'll be you two!
[FRIED] Hurry to Lisanna's side.
Hold on, what about the Enchantment?
[FRIED] I've already enabled its minimum level of defense.
Right now getting rid of these scoundrels should be
our number one priority.
You ready?
You know it!
[FRIED] Ah, so that's it.
They worked together to attack Gahjeel.
I wondered how such inferior wizards could defeat him.
[BIXLOW] Neither of these clowns could've pulled it off
in a one on one fight!
Hang in there, Bro!
You gotta stay strong!
I'm tryin'.
Now listen up.
There's only one way you're ever gonna be able
to beat these jerks.
and that's with a coordinated team attack.
You've just gotta trust me on this one.
They're too strong for you alone but you can take 'em as a team!
I really wish I could walk right now.
Oh crap!
Is that an Amaterasu Spell?
Now die!
What the hell?
[HADES] Those hit by the Amaterasu Formula lose
all strength in their limbs and become immobilized.
Simply blocking it consumes so much magic power
it can be fatal.
He's awesome!
[ERZA] I had no idea Laxus was this powerful.
[LAXUS] To think, that was only one leg.
I still have the other one and both my hands.
Not to mention the rest of me.
If I combined 'em into one attack.
it'd be a hell of a lot stronger than the kick that
just took you down.
You wanna try me?
[HADES] You talk big.
Although I can't blame you.
There's an air of confidence that comes with youth.
but it's not indicative of your skill.
You can't beat me!
Just watch me!
[KAIN] I've got you now.
You're in a sorry state, aren't ya?
Well, that's what you get for trying to seduce
a pure heart like mine.
What?
I wasn't trying to seduce you!
Now then.
I think it's about time for me to finish you off.
I promise I'll do my best to make it quick so
you don't have to suffer-
[LISANNA] Cana!
[KAIN] Hot!
Why did you burn my bristles, lady?
To teach you a lesson, fatty!
You need to drop that cocky attitude!
I'm not a fatty, I'm just big-boned!
[CANA] Card Magic.
Summoned Lightning!
[KAIN] That tingles.
[CANA] What the-?
[KAIN] You're overwhelmed by my manliness, aren't ya?
Y'know, I don't have a "type" so I'm an equal opportunity lover.
I never turn a lady down.
Does that surprise you?
[CANA] No.
I'm surprised my attack's not affecting you.
That's 'Cause Cursy the Second is a generator!
Self-Reinforcement.
Lightning Bolt!
Why don't you bolt outta here!
Nice try!
But your attack was easily dodged by changing the-Whoa,
that's cold!
You need a cold shower!
No!
When cotton absorbs water.
it gets heavy!
[CANA] I'm not finished with you yet!
Icicles!
[KAIN] Self-reinforcement.
Heat!
[LISANNA] Cana's amazing!
She's holding her own against this guy!
I think she could win the S-Class trial this year!
It's been quite a while since I had two beautiful women
fight over me like this.
It's kinda like high school all over again.
I'm flattered, ladies.
[CANA] So Are you trying to distract us or are you
just that clueless?
Is this guy bothering you?
He was.
Let's all take him out together!
[KAIN] Wait a sec, lemme get this straight.
If I heard right you lovely ladies all wanna go out
on a date with me?
A confession of love from three beauties at once?
This isn't anything like high school at all!
I'm the maaan!
Now Listen up!
I'm not a flirt, okay?
I'm an old-fashioned gentleman!
I hate to say this but I can only go steady
with one of you!
So Will the lady who really wants to date me
please step forward?
[ALL THREE] Don't look at me.
I'm crying tears of joy!
Everybody knows that I'm single and lovin' every minute of it!
Solid Script: Hole!
[CANA] Explosive Flame!
[LISANNA] Penguin!
[KAIN] Heavy!
Oh no!
Lisanna!
Hey!
Look down!
How'd he turn into my brother?
[ELFMAN] Ow.
You're So heavy.
[KAIN] Did you like that?
I call it Self-Reinforcement Overlap!
a taboo technique using Cursy the Third!
By attaching both mine and the big lug's bristle,
I can switch bodies with him whenever I want!
You're screwed now that I've self-reinforced
into a mist!
It'll be even more frustrating than trying
to attack a big, fluffy, thunder cloud in the sky.
What the.
You tricked me!
Where'd that come from?
Well, Fried had a feeling that this might happen.
So he went ahead and set up a few of 'em before
the fighting got started.
This Enchantment trap keeps wizards
from using their magic!
[CANA] Nice!
[KAIN] Lemme out.
We can overlap techniques too, y'know!
Let's do it!
Lisanna!
[LISANNA] Ready!
Flames in my right hand and storms in my left!
Triple Unison.
Explosion!
No!
I got beat by a girl again!
Where's the fun in that?
Bahk.
Somethin' tells me he lost.
Yeah.
good news for us.
Our chances at a promotion just skyrocketed,
bok-kah!
Those losers are happy their buddy got beat down?
That's how it works in a dark guild.
I doubt we'd ever be able to understand.
[BIXLOW] Only two left.
[FRIED] Let's make quick work of them.
[BIXLOW] Right on!
[HADES] Well, would you look what we have here?
I knew you were full of bravado but I didn't expect you to fall
to your knees so soon.
Laxus!
Come on.
Please get up!
[LUCY] He was hit by that spell after all!
[LAXUS] I've traveled almost everywhere,
all over this world of ours.
But this is the first time I've ever met
such a monster.
I've got a long way to go.
What're you saying?
You've gotta pull yourself together, man!
[HADES] I'm glad I could help you come to that realization.
"Laxus" was it?
But this is the end.
Prepare to die!
Hurry and get up!
[LAXUS] I realize.
I'm not a member of Fairy Tail anymore.
Look out!
Move or it's gonna hit you!
[GRAY] Laxus!
[LAXUS] But this bastard took out my grandpa.
So I'm allowed to take revenge, right?
Yeah, of course you are!
[NATSU] Lightning?
Laxus!
[LAXUS] This one's my treat.
Natsu.
What's happening to him?
[NATSU] Hey.
Thanks for the meal.
[HADES] An electric charge?
[LAXUS] I gave him all my magic power.
He what?
He transferred his power to Natsu!
[GRAY] Are You kiddin' me?
Does that mean he ate lightning?
If he eats anything other than fire it makes him sick!
[GRAY] But if that's the case then Laxus didn't have
any magic power left when he was hit!
[WENDY] He was willing to risk his life in order to help us.
[NATSU] Why did you give it to me?
You know that I'm weaker than you.
[LAXUS] It has nothin' to do with who's weaker or stronger.
He wounded Fairy Tail's master.
It's only right that someone with
the guild's emblem take him down!
Anyone who hurts the guild deserves
what's comin' to 'em!
So go get him, Natsu.
[NATSU] Okay!
It's a fusion of flame and lightning.
[WENDY] A lightning flame dragon!
[NATSU] You're gonna pay for what you've done.
♪
[HAPPY] "Lightning Flame Dragon"?
Showing off much?
[NATSU] No!
I mean, it's not like I'm trying to or anything.
[HAPPY] If you were a real pal you would've shared
some of Laxus' power with me!
[NATSU] Whatever!
Even if I had, you'd still be nothin' more than a flyin'
"lightning cat".
[HAPPY] Yeah, right!
That's what you think!
I'd be a thunder cat!
[HAPPY and NATSU] Next time: Realm of the Abyss!
[HAPPY] Lily's scared of thunder, so that would keep him
far away from me!
And then he couldn't copy me anymore!
[NATSU] You think Lily's copying you?
Keep dreamin'!
