"Fire Dragon Roar!" Crystal yelled as flames shot from her mouth at the man. The force of the flame caused Crystal's pink hair to fly out behind her.

"There you are." Ander stated as he saw Crytal use her powers. "So, there can be more than one dragonslayer of the same type at once,... interesting." Ander leaned forward on his perch and flipped forward as he fell,finishing his breadstick and landing perfectly on the ground below him, directly behind the two sisters. "Its called reflactor magic. You'll have to fight him the old fashion way, no magic or weapons." He then turned and started to walk off. As he walked away he said over his shoulder, "Oh, and hes really up on that rooftop over there, you're fighting a projection." He jerked his thumb over to the building on his right. "Be seeing ya." And with that he was back on his crystals and flying through the air to his next objective.

Shade kept following her. His eyes looked over the place and could also smell people near. He frowned slighty"we should prepare for a fight."

Paige cursed as Ander came behind behind "Who the hell are you? Why are there so many strangers in Magnolia today?" But as she spoke this, he was already flying away. "Reflector magic he said? Seems oddly familiar." Paige looked up to see the man in the cape. "What the helllll??????????" She screamed. "Now I'm extremely pissed off. Guys, I'm going to give you some support." Her eyes were glowing with anger. Suddenly a gust of wind blew around her body as she used the Vernier spell.

"O swift wind that dashes through the heavens!....
VERNIER!"

Blue magic circles appeared around her friends as they all began to feel a sudden boost of speed and strength. "Go kick their asses!"

"Paige remember the story dad told us about the guy who used reflector magic?" Crystal said to her sister as her angry blue gaze settled upon the man on top of the building.

'I have the wind and water dragon crystals,' Ander thought to himself, 'I know where earth is and now I know that the fire dragonslayer is indeed in Magnolia. And as for those nutjobs,' he looked over to a group of dark guild grunts running around the streets, 'their base shouldn't be to far over this way.' Just as he finished his statement he saw two people sneaking in the woods, one he recognized to be that unconscious boy from earlier. A little farther north and there was their 'hideout' if you could call it that. It was big dark and mysterious, in the middle of a bright, green, and lush forest... 'May as well cut the head off of the snake,' he thought, and continued on toward the dark guild's hall.

"Thank you, Paige. I won't let your help go to waste." Leon states as attaches a paper tag to his kunai and throws it the enemy's feet. This causes their vision to be clouded by smoke. When the smoke clears, the grunts see that there are paper tags by their feet. In a matter of seconds, he tags explode, knocking a large amount of them unconscious. He picks off the rest with a few melee attacks. "If this is the best you've got, then you should've never picked a fight with Fairy Tail." He says loud enough for everyone to hear.

Having lost track of Shade and Caitlin, Morgan decides to call out for them. "Hey! Can anyone hear me!?"

red felt his body loosen and relax, he felt his weight and cumber vanish. A smile it his face as he understood what her magic had done. "in the name of th holy inquistion and fairy tail we solomely smite you in high hopes that your petulant soul may feel the righteousness that he bring" red shout with a sudden conviction. His body was light and he zoomed quickly towards the man with a fist of fury. "witness my scared fire" red shouted before launching his hand at the oppenent's stomach. Again he threw and a third followed by a kick.

Shade heard the call of Morgan and turned his head." Who was that..." His voice was very low

"Midnight was it? Dad never fought him until later though right? I believe it was Erza.. right?" She eyed the reflector wizard wearily. Paige was unsure how they would beat someone who could reflect their magic. Suddenly it seemed like Paige and Crystal were teleported to some disturbing wold.

"What the hell? Isn't this all an illusion? How do we get out of it?" Paige asked Crystal.

"We have to beat him in the illusion. I think that's what dad said Erza did...but we have to figure out a way to beat him." Crystal said looking around the illusion world

Ander successfully snuck into the dark guild hall. Floating on his crystals the way he was, he wasn't making any sound at all. He checked every room, and not to his surprise the place was barren, save for one. A large figure loomed over a vision lacrima. It displayed images of the battle so far, which didn't seem to be making the man very happy. Ander placed his hand on the floor of the room and let water flow from his hand instead of pouring it out as not to make noise. If it weren't for the dark room and bright lacrima the man was watching, the man may noticed the floor of the room gain a good inch or two of water. "Crystal form: theif." With that command, Ander fell to the water making a splash, the silvery crystals at his feet coming back together and then turning fairly transparent. Between the sudden voice and confusion of water everywhere, the man watching the lacrima spun around startled, and slipped in the water.

"Wh-what the-, who's there!?" the man shouted, now soaked. At the same moment he caught the faint glimpse of a nearly transparent crystal passing through his chest and then retreating back to the shadows where the voice came from, a light purple gem trailing behind it.

"None of your concern, your not the guild leader here, are you.?" Ander replied.

"Like I'd tell you!" the man shouted as he got up and went to cast a spell...which never arrived. Ander slowly started to walk forward, the small purple crystal equipped. Ander flexed the corresponding arm the side the crystal was on and a white circle of dim light flickered around his hand. "N-no way, that's-"

"Yours?" Ander landed a punch with the glowing hand in the man's stomach, which caused him to crumple over, ...and fall asleep. Ander looked down at his hand, both front and back with a raised eyebrow. 'Interesting,' he thought,'this must have been the guy who put everyone to sleep.' He walked over to the sleep mage and propped him up in his chair,then sprayed him with a jet of water to wake him."Tell me where the leader of your guild is," Ander demanded while he was already floating on his crystals again.

"I'm not telling you anything you bas***d!"

Ander wasn't amused by the answer and switched the purple crystal out for his yellow lightning one. "Suit yourself." He struck lightning at the pool of water and sent shocks all thoughout the now powerless mage. It seemed to give him a change of heart. "AAAAHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRG-ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT!" Ander stopped and let the man catch his breath. "He's back in town, hunting the Dragneel kids."

Ander shook his head in frustration, "Reflector magic?" and the dark mage nodded. "Well, then looks like I'm haeded back to Magnolia after all. I think I'll hold on to this, I don't like the way you use it," Ander told the man, holding his magic in a purple crystal,"so I think I'll keep it for a while." With that he shocked to floor one more time, knoking the guy out and started to make his way back to Magnolia, hoping that the sleep spell wears off soon.

Before Paige could answer Crystal, a giant monster that resembled every nightmare you'd ever had combined. Even the sight of it gave Paige goosebumps which was almost impossible.

"Holy sh***" Paige exclaimed in shock but quickly cracked her knuckles again *dragon slayer theme song XD* "I don't care what the hell you look like. You hurt my friends and dare barge in to our guild. We're fairy tail wizards, daughters of Natsu Dragneel, and we're the ones that are about kick you a**." Paige looked over to Crystal, giving her the 'we're about to say that' look. "We're both fired up." She said, hopefully at the same time as Crystal.

"We're both fired up." Crystal said at the same time as her sister. "Attack him without your magic Paige!" Crystal yelled as she sprinted forward and dodged one of the monster's arms as she ran.

Red smiled as he heard the girls behind and the ecstasy of victory felt in the back of his head. There fray had been going side to side, with the added speed boost from the wind dragon he had been able to keep up with ease. Now he knew his job was done. Red quickly jumped back shooting a ball of large white flames and smiling as his foe was fazed. "witness the power of my strength, fire magic: heat crash, you will repent" red said as flames built around him and the other girls. Slowly it began to get hotter and hotter.

Paige winked "you got it." After concentrating, she performed vernia again, however on herself this time. Feeling the extra speed and strength, she took off after the creature. Paige's feet left the ground as she jumped and punched the creature in it's stomach. Except her arm was unable to pull back, it was stuck. Slowly the monsters body began devouring Paige. Struggle as she might, Paige was stuck. Anger steamed in her body.

"I will not die by this, hell no." She spit out. Even so, her words were pointless. Before she could count, Paige's leg and shoulder were already sucked in. There was nothing to pull herself out of or hold on to.

This sudden heat wave seemed to had caused most of their enemies to faint. Leon turned to look at Red, impressed with his efforts to help his comrades. "Thanks Red. You're doing great." Unfortunately as he turns to compliment Red on a job well done, he failed to notice a dark guild grunt heading towards him. The grunt casts an ice spell that hits Leon in the back, causing him to gasp in pain. This spell begins to freeze his entire body, encasing it in ice. This ice does not seem to be affected by the current rise in temperature however. "Don't worry about me, Red. Focus on the enemy. Keep those girls safe!" Leon called as his entire body except for his head was now encased in ice.

"Paige!" Crystal yelled and her blue eyes focused on the monster. "You...." She muttered as her eyes glowed. She closed her eyes. If I can't see him the magic won't work... She thought as she sprinted forward only heading towards the monster using her sense of smell.

Ashkii put Layla somewhere safe I've got to help the others. She thought looking at Layla and she ran to the guild hall not too far from where she hide Layla. "Ice-make: Spear!" She yelled and a ice spear formed in her hands and she hit the wizard that attacked Leon. She then hit the ice with her elbow hoping it would melt.

Red clenched his hands as he began to feel the heat greatly increase, he had only begon the first part of the spell, but with his sudden rage he was growing to add to much to his build up. Originally the move was meant to explode in a cesspool of fire, and red hopped to allow his fire dragon pal to feed on said magic, but things were getting bad. His blood was boiling and he as about ready to burst into action. "by the name of our holy lord I will find a way past these men to the heart of the evil and the belly of the beast, Crystal prepare yourself" the man said as he noticed his fingernails had been much deeper in his skin under his silk gloves than he imagined. "heat crash, release"

Ander just arrived back in town to see what was going on in the fight. He took his place back a the point of the tower from earlier and pulled out another breadstick. He decided to go ahead and watch the sisters fight. Should it get to close, however, he would step in. He couldn't let some dark guild punk steal his target.
