[NATSU] No way!
[GILDARTS] Let her go! She's got nothin' to do with this!
[LAPOINTE] What?
Octo-geezer!
[BYRO] How dare you try to deceive me, Lapointe!
Byro.
♪
[HAPPY] Natsu! Thank goodness I'm so glad you're still alive!
Yeah, Of course I am!
Did you really think I was gonna lose to dudes in dresses?
Wendy... Tend to the archbishop.
Right!
Are you sure this is the right person?
[BYRO] I'll admit.
I'm surprised you'd be bold enough to
break into the Grand Cathedral of all places.
You're surprised?
So was Lapointe.
[Lapointe laughs]
[LAPOINTE] Struggle all you want, insects.
The Real Nightmare already has you in its web.
As of today the world you knew is over.
The Infinity Clock fuels the great
power that Zentopia was founded upon.
And that power has not diminished
since it was imprisoned.
[LAPOINTE] But back then,
it was known to all as the Infinity Castle.
Wow, how original.
[LAPOINTE] Every one hundred years,
during Zentopia's Founding Festival.
The Infinity Castle releases every
ounce of pure magic power it's accumulated!
[LAPOINTE] A century's worth of power,
unstoppable and ripe for the taking.
[HAPPY] You caused all that suffering to steal magic?
[LAPOINTE] No, you fool.
My only goal is to revert the world to chaos.
There is no higher purpose to me!
[LAPOINTE] With Real Nightmare in my control,
I can return the world to the days of
anarchy that reigned before Zentopia's time.
The true heart of man, with all of its greed and hatred,
will be allowed to flourish once again.
Neville must have realized this could happen,
so he created a seal that spread across generations.
But what does any of that have to do with Lucy?
[HAPPY] To the Infinity Castle!
[KLODOA] This one is quite the catch.
She has contracts with many powerful Celestial Spirits
and possesses great stores of magic with which to summon them.
[MIDNIGHT] Since the Infinity Clock was sealed
away by celestial wizards, the only way it can be controlled is
by harnessing the magic power of another celestial wizard.
[LUCY] I would never help you!
[KLODOA] Fine!
We don't expect sacrifices to participate willingly.
[MIDNIGHT] The clock belongs to us.
But your magic will be the bridge that connects
the Infinity Castle with our will.
When the Real Nightmare takes hold
everyone's values will become one and the same.
Meaning we'll see an almost immediate end to all conflict.
I'm proud, Sister.
You're going to grant the world true freedom
and I'll be here to see it happen.
[Lapointe laughs]
Please, don't let me sway you from saving the day.
All that you have to do to stop the clock is kill the girl.
[LAPOINTE] But I know you won't do that.
Which means Zentopia's Armageddon,
chaos, is inevitable!
What's happening to me?
You did this, didn't you?
Byro, you treacherous dog, I'll have you hanged!
I pity you. More than you know.
[GILDARTS] Now I get it.
The whole time he was another part of the deception.
He's just a fake, made from Personification magic.
I doubt he even realized he was a puppet until now.
Nobody pulls my strings, you arrogant brute!
I'm the master of chaos!
Gildarts and I came across a lot of puppets
on our way here that were very similar to you.
They all had that same look in their eyes.
So there's no point in hiding it.
When you get right down to it, you're nothin' but a tool.
You're wrong!
I am a cardinal of the mighty Zentopian Church!
I am not a puppet!
I'm not!
I will rule everything!
The world is mine!
[NATSU] That smell!
[NATSU] Gross, it's Master Zero's hair.
What a sad existence.
Yeah, it must suck to find out you're not really a human.
Lapointe wasn't the only tool.
As head of the Legion Platoon I take full responsibility
for the suffering caused by our actions.
But now, at least in this situation,
I know what has to be done.
[BYRO] As a warrior sworn to Zentopia.
It is my duty to save the world.
If I'm to stop the Infinity Clock...
...then Lucy Heartfilia must die.
[NATSU] I won't let you touch her!
[NATSU] Dumb move.
I owe this guy a beatin'.
I'll take care of him while you find Lucy.
Alright, I guess I'll let you have him this time.
Just make sure he feels it, okay?
Hey!
I know a way to get into the Infinity Castle!
[NATSU] Then lead the way!
We're right behind ya!
[PANTHERLILY] Coco. I'm glad you're not hurt.
It's the other cat!
[PANTHERLILY] Sammy!
As I told you before, brother!
I serve Lord Byro!
Don't get in our way!
[PANTHERLILY] What do you plan to do?
Simple.
Keep you away from your friend.
The time for talk has passed, brother!
[PANTHERLILY] Wait, Sammy!
[SAMUEL] I understand your anger, but I don't
need calculations to know what's right.
[SAMUEL] When the life of one person is
weighed against the fate of the world.
there's only one course of action.
Take him down!
Aye, sir!
You won't interfere!
No! Not this again!
[NATSU] Happy!
Would you quit messin' with them?
You're dealing with me now!
Natsu! Hurry and go find Lucy!
I'll save her, pal.
[COCO] This way!
Warren, you'll stay behind as a liaison!
Gray, Gajeel, Elfman, you guys follow me.
[ALL] Got it!
You shall not pass!
Stop turnin' your back on me!
You seem to have forgotten.
My ability to neutralize magic left you
in the mud last time our fists crossed.
I don't need magic to shut your mouth.
One of these between your teeth should do the trick.
I have extensive training in mortal combat.
Well honed, refined to the point that no man
has ever bested me in a physical match.
You talk too much, y'know that?
Aw, crap.
Perhaps.
But I still have the upper hand.
[KLODOA] Unfortunately, it seems Lapointe has expired, Master.
[MIDNIGHT] It's no great loss.
He'd served his purpose.
[MIDNIGHT] Even if he was made from remnants of my father,
he was nothing but another pawn.
You disgust me!
Whether he was made out of
magic power or not, he was still a living being!
On the contrary.
"Heart" is what's truly important.
Those who don't have it might as well be dolls.
What happened to you?
[LAKI] Is he under the same spell that was used on Cana?
[CARLA] Yes, I think so.
[HAPPY] Any luck, Wendy?
My Healing magic isn't working.
Keep tryin'!
His fever's still pretty high.
What's the matter?
I think the spell was cast on
the archbishop's brain for too long.
Fragments of it are still stuck in there.
So, unless we can safely remove the fragments,
he may not live long enough to help us.
Do you think you can save him?
[WENDY] If I can use my magic delicately
enough to prevent brain damage, then possibly.
I don't see any other option here.
If he comes out of it, he might be able to tell
us more about the Infinity Clock.
Come on, Wendy, you can do this!
[WENDY] Okay.
I sense a power coming this way.
Please let it be Natsu!
It isn't. This time.
I've found you! Just as I calculated!
[LUCY] An Exceed. Is that Samuel?
[IMITATIA] Lucy belongs to me and nobody else!
I won't let you have her!
[LUCY] Huh?
Wait, I'm confused, I thought he was on your side?
That doesn't seem to be the case any longer.
I'm not sure why he switched sides, but it's obvious
that he intends to end your life now.
My Aera wings.
[IMITATIA] This is unexpected.
The Legion Platoon dogs we had under
tight leash have turned on their Masters.
If I hadn't been here you would've been killed.
[SAMUEL] I may have lost my wings but
with these claws, I can still climb.
Lord Byro, hang on.
[MARY] Unless I knocked a few more screws loose,
you totally heard that telepathic message;
so do you wanna keep fightin' or what?
[GUTMAN] I dunno what to do now.
[MARY] Lord Byro, was used.
The cardinals were used.
Like, even the Archbishop was another puppet.
Which means,
[MARY] Me 'n you?
Totes tools.
[GUTMAN] All this time we thought we
were following Zentopia's doctrine.
But we were really just playthings
for the Neo-Oración Seis.
Pretty much.
Which makes us, like, totally uncool.
[GUTMAN] That hurts my feelings. And for that I'm gonna...
[GUTMAN] Take a nice long nappy-wappy.
[GUTMAN] Night-night.
[MARY] Well that was anti-climactic.
[MARY] It's up to you now, Coco.
Take'em down.
C'mon! Hurry!
[ELFMAN] It's really hard to keep up with ya, kid!
Father Fabrizio said that the pyramid in the middle
with the giant eye can take us up to the Infinity Castle!
But we still have a ways to go!
Hang on, Lucy! We're comin' for ya!
[LAHAR] I am Chief Marshal Lahar of
the Custody Enforcement Unit.
We've freed you from the magic effects of those chains.
You'll be protected if you remain inside the barrier.
You're safe, now. Just stay in here.
Direct Line!
[GIRL 147A] Momma!
Don't be afraid!
I've come here to take your family to safety.
Good! Keep moving; you're almost there!
[LAKI] It's working!
Yes, he doesn't look nearly as sick as before.
Don't try to rush it.
Be very gentle.
She looks exhausted.
She's never cast her Cure spell for this
long before so it's only natural that she'd get tired.
Come on!
Attack!
Why won't you fight seriously?
[GILDARTS] I didn't want to run the risk of
the kids seeing it, y'know?
Because I'm about to turn you into a bloody mess.
You lack the skill.
On the contrary, I was just warmin' up.
You know, you might be onto something here.
A good fight every once in a while
really gets the blood pumpin'.
Wendy, I know you want to save him,
but you're using up too much magic power.
Maybe you should take a breather and try again later.
Don't need to! I think he'll be just fine.
Wait, you're already done?
[CARLA] My goodness.
When were you going to tell me that you've improved so much?
I got a lot of experience recently.
In any case...
The archbishop is out of the woods
and the spell won't bother him again.
It's true!
Even his fever's come down!
Excellent work, Wendy.
Never doubted you for a minute.
Now if only getting rid of the Infinity Clock
was as easy as removing a spell.
But what if it is?
[HAPPY] I got it!
What is it?
Samuel thinks he has to kill Lucy in order to stop
the Infinity Clock but he's got it wrong,
there's another way!
The answer was right in front of us!
And that answer is.?
Isn't it obvious?
We gotta defeat the Neo-Oración Seis!
We have to beat every single one?
You gotta be kiddin' me!
I don't follow you.
Remember when they all showed up
and took over the Infinity Clock?
The very first thing they did was brand it with their seal.
[CARLA] Now that I think about it, the sixth seal,
the one on the clock hand, must have belonged to Michelle.
[HAPPY] Us cats know all about marking things,
and I'm pretty sure that's how they
were able to take control of the clock.
So I think that if we're able to beat them and
erase all of their seals, maybe their
ownership of the clock will go away, too!
And if they don't control it, they can't hold Lucy anymore!
She'll be free!
I'll let Natsu and the others know about Happy's theory!
I'm gonna go and try to find Lucy as well.
I'll join you!
I'll stay with Wendy for now
but we'll meet up with you later.
[CARLA] Be careful, everyone!
[WARREN] Hey guys, can you hear me?
We might've figured out another way to stop the Infinity Clock!
[ELFMAN] Does anyone else hear that?
It sounds like telepathy from Warren,
but I can't understand him.
He says we can stop the clock by beating the Neo-Oración Seis!
Then they can't control it anymore!
And we might be able to save Lucy in the process!
I can get behind that plan.
I start to rust if I don't bash in some heads before dinner.
I'm sick and tired of this runnin' around,
I'm ready to brawl!
Let's show 'em how manly we are!
[NATSU] I'm all fired up!
End of the line, kids.
[NATSU] Snake dude!
[ERZA] Cobra!
All that anxiety, the sweet desperation, despair.
I hear it all.
Not if I char your ears off!
I'm saving you for last, Salamander.
Titania and I have unfinished business.
[COBRA] Isn't that right?
[ERZA] You heard him.
Go on. I've got this.
We can help you!
No, he's only interested in fighting me.
It's because I heard the cry of his heart.
Shut your mouth!
[GRAY] C'mon. We should get goin'.
[NATSU] Fine.
Erza!
If you die I'll kill you!
[Erza chuckles]
Mind telling me what's so amusing?
There's no point telling you.
You can already hear it.
[ELFMAN] What's with the all the plant life?
[GRAY] Greenhouse maybe?
[GAJEEL] Why grow a garden inside a gigantic clock?
[NATSU] Does it really matter?
I'm sorry boys, but this is as far as you're getting.
[NATSU] I recognize that chick!
[GRAY] Angel. Keep goin', I can handle her.
Okay, you and Erza really need to learn to work as a team.
You got no right to talk!
Fine, she's all yours.
She wouldn't be a challenge to me anyway.
[ANGEL] So you're my opponent?
How incredibly boring.
Oh don't worry.
I'll be sure to make things real interesting for ya.
[KLODOA] Oh look!
A merry band of intruders to kill!
[NATSU] It's Midnight!
I mean, Brain the Third or whatever he's called.
Did you really think you'd make it
to the top completely unopposed?
[NATSU] 'Bout time you showed up!
I call dibs.
You guys go find Lucy.
[GAJEEL] What was all that crap about teamwork, hypocrite?
[NATSU] Watch it!
You keep goin'.
He's mine!
Shoulda known you'd want him for yourself.
I already called dibs, go find your own!
So you're the head of the Neo-Oración Seis?
You ain't scary.
Ya look like some angsty kid who got into his mother's make-up.
I'm not concerned with the opinions of gutter trash.
Come down here and say that to my face.
[GAJEEL] Why are you still here?
Go!
[NATSU] Why are you still trying to give me orders?
[ELFMAN] We don't have time to argue about this.
Let Gajeel handle him and keep moving!
It shouldn't be much further!
You cheater!
I'm gonna get you back for this!
[ERZA] I've seen that attack before.
Woo! Well, Hot Dog!
I don't understand.
Why are you still intent on fighting Fairy Tail?
It's none of your business darlin',
but if you must know, Lord Byro gave us strict orders to
keep you and your friends away from the Infinity Clock .
So that's what I'm doin'!
But the circumstances have changed!
Lord Byro and the Neo-Oración Seis are enemies now;
they're your targets!
There's a word for that.
Crazy!
Snake Boy here will tell ya the same thing.
Get lost, maggot.
Say what?
May your own voice destroy you.
[SUGARBOY] Crazy!
[SUGARBOY] What's happenin'? My doggies are goin' rabid!
[SUGARBOY] No!
Get lost.
Unbelievable!
Now I'll never get to sing my rousing love
song for that hunky Ice Boy!
So cruel.
So spicy!
[SUGARBOY] Goodnight ladies and gentlemen!
Sugarboy has left the building!
Now then, shall we continue Titania?
[GAJEEL] Iron Dragon Club!
Iron Dragon?
So, the gutter trash has claws after all.
[GAJEEL ] That Reflector spell you're usin' sucks.
You're startin' to piss me off!
[KLODOA] You must be the one called Black Steel Gajeel, yes?
Tell me, are your brains made of scrap metal as well?
[GAJEEL] Eat me!
Iron Dragon Spear: Demon Logs!
A quick snack and then I'll finish you off!
[GAJEEL] Iron Dragon Roar!
You should realize by now that nothing
you throw at me will hit the mark.
[GAJEEL] Oh, yeah?
That's true from a distance, but up close and personal
is a whole different story!
[GAJEEL] Iron Dragon Sword!
[GAJEEL] What?
[MIDNIGHT] My mirages are convincing, aren't they?
Spiral Pain!
[GILDARTS] Aw c'mon, I barely felt that one!
You can do better.
Hit me with everything you've got!
[BYRO] I can't do it.
He has a much higher level of strength than me.
[GILDARTS] You overcame your frustration of being betrayed,
and you fought for what you believe in.
But, in the Fairy Tail guild
our friend's lives always take priority.
Even if the only choice is between them or the world.
As much as I'd love to keep playing with you, I can't.
I just don't have the time.
[GAJEEL] You coward!
I'm not letting you off that easy, ya hear?
[GILDARTS] Gajeel?
[Gajeel cries out]
[GILDARTS] I gotcha!
[GAJEEL] Are you kiddin' me?
[Gajeel and Gildarts cry out]
[COCO] We should be getting close to the center of the
Infinity Castle's magic power.
It's here somewhere.
[NATSU] I don't smell Lucy at all.
I wonder why?
[COCO] It's probably because she's linked
to the Infinity Clock!
Wait! I think I've got Michelle's scent!
Right on!
If we can follow that it should lead us straight to Lucy!
Aw, yeah!
[NATSU] Lucy!
My friends, they made it, they're here.
You're wasting your time because Lucy belongs to me!
Turn around and go back to that rotting guild hall.
Michelle!
If you value your lives you'll leave her with me.
♪
[NATSU] According to the script an Angel shows up next time!
[HAPPY] No way!
I thought Angels were just mythical creatures.
[NATSU] I dunno what to tell ya, buddy, but it says right
here that there's gonna be one.
[HAPPY] Read it again, dufus!
It's obviously a reference to me!
[NATSU] Oh yeah?
How?
[HAPPY] Would you look at this face?
I think everyone knows I'm the angel of Fairy Tail!
[HAPPY AND NATSU] Next time: Angel Tears!
[NATSU] Gimme a break!
When has anyone in the guild ever called you an angel?
[HAPPY] They never say it out right but it's implied.
Don't be jealous.
[NATSU] I'm amazed you can say that with a straight face.
