"So..." said Accelerator as he set Nicole down. "Are ya gonna say something? Or are ya just gonna keep standing there looking stupid!?"

Rogue gritted his teeth and stepped back. "My powers against yours... it is indeed an interesting prospect.. but I have a  much better idea...why don't I show you instead?"

"Show me what!?" said Accelerator. "What the hell are you going on about?"

"Accelerator, be careful. " said Nicole. "He somehow has the ability to control the Gates of Hell!"

Accelerator looked back at the massive open horrific gate behind him. "So that's what that is huh? And here I thought that was where Hydra Head kept their bathroom. It smells like a freakin' hell toilett!"

Rogue's eyes widened with anger and fear. "Don't act like you've already won!! ROAR OF THE SHADOW DRAGON!!"

Accelerator smiled psychotically and pressed a button on his choker. "Oh you asked for it..."

The massive blast of shadow energy exploded near Accelerator as he used Vectors to propel himself past the blast, his hand out and ready to lash out at  Rogue. "DIE!!!"

Rogue suddenly had a panicked look as he dodged Accelerator's hand. But a massive twister of powerful wind exploded from Accelerator's body and caused Rogue to blast back into the ground as Accelerator stomped his foot against the dirt.

 A massive earthquake exploded outwards with Accelerator as the epicenter. Rogue jumped into the air to avoid the cracking and rubble busting attack. He activated his Shadow Jaws and pointed it at Accelerator. "CORRUPTED ROAR OF THE SHADOW DRAGON!!!" 

Accelerator sidestepped  the Roar attack easily and made several clicking sounds with his tongue. A massive cyclone exploded out from beneath his feet and blasted Rogue straight into the ground with a boom.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" Accelerator laughed. "What's the matter? New leader of Hydra Head? Losing your edge?"

"Shadows don't operate on the normal laws of physics!!" said Rogue with a livid look in his eye as he got up. "Your Vector redirection power won't work on me as long as I don't use close range physical attacks..."

"True.. except ya haven't hit me yet.." said Accelerator. "You're all alone... and ya ain't gonna beat me... I didn't hitch hike a plane and ride on Igneel's back all the way here just to go easy on any of you Hydra losers!!"

"SHUT UP!!" Rogue screamed as his body began to give off explosive amounts of shadow energy. His teeth turned sharp and his eyes turned pitch black. "I'll rend your flesh!!"

Accelerator raised an eyebrow. "Eh? What kind of new power do you have there? It looks like it's driving you crazy..."

"When the darkness consumes you enough.." murmured Rogue. "YOU BECOME DARKNESS!!!"

Rogue let out a primordial scream and the entire ground shook. The Gates Of Hell grew massive and chains exploded out from the opening within the gate. The chains shot at Accelerator, however they were instantly deflected by Accelerator's vector redirection.

"Was that supposed to do something?" spat Accelerator.

Suddenly the Gates of Hell flew forward, it's door open wide. Before Accelerator can react, the gate had plowed into Accelerator, sucking him in, and shutting it's doors with a boom.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!" Rogue laughed deliriously as the shadowy tendrils around him began to grow larger and darker. "Have fun in Hell... ACCELERATOR!!!"

____________________________________________________

Accelerator was falling... falling... around him he could see strange ginormous cubular structures floating all around... strange looking human souls were hiding behind some of the structures, all of them looking frightened about something..

"This is hell?" Accelerator muttered as he fell further down into the abyss. "This ain't what I expected..."

Suddenly a large monstrous giant larger then even a sky scaper appeared from behind some of the structures, It almost resembled a hollow with it's skull head and massive gray body with muscular arms. The monster phased through the giant structures like a ghost, moving a hand over in an attempt to grab Accelerator.

Accelerator smiled insanely. "Guess you're one of the landlords around here... sorry, but I ain't paying rent!"

The moment the hand made to touch Accelerator, the vector redirection came into effect and the massive hand of the creature exploded away in a shower of body parts and blood. Accelerator landed on a structure and propelled himself through the surface of Hell, laughing as more of the massive godzilla sized monsters phased out from around the structures.

"Come on and have a go!!" Accelerator roared. "If this is Hell, then it's a whole lot more fun then people make it out to be!!"

The Hell Gaurdians lashed their hands out and all yielded the same result of having their hands explode from Accelerator's vector redirection. Accelerator propelled himself through several rows of the creatures, blasting a hole through twenty of their chests.

The creatures let out tremendous tortured cries as they all fell away from Accelerator. Accelerator then fell through the structures and came down endlessly through a strange blue sky until he landed on a stone lilly. All around there was nothing but an endless ocean... all around the ocean was more stone lillies...

"Eh?" said Accelerator. "What kind of weird messed up place is Hell? An ocean? Seriously? What a farce.."

"Hey! You!" A voice rang out.

Accelerator turned to see a man standing on a nearby stone lilly above the water. The man was wearing a dark black shredded cape with a high collar, he had black hair and white clothing with black stripes.

"You look like a newcomer to Hell." said the man. "If you wanna survive, then you have no choice then to follow me..."

Accelerator eyed the man for a minute. "Hmmm.. I think I'll pass."

"Heh!" said the man. "You sure you want to do that? The Kushinada up there love to gather on stuck up punks like yourself!"

Accelerator laughed. "So that's what those monsters were called? I think I killed 50 of them!"

The man's eyes widened for a minute in shock. Then he too started laughing. "You really know how to stun a guy! But playing hero and pretending you're such a hotshot won't work with me!! 50 Kushinada defeated by one guy!? Just not possible! I am called Shuren. Who are you?"

"Accelerator." said Accelerator. "So I take it you're like the boss prisoner around here. Do you want my milk money or something?"

Shuren smiled deviously and powerful flames began to erupt from his body. Actually we're here to put you under our dominance... since you won't come quietly anyways..!"

"We?"

As if on cue, more figures clad in white clothing with black stripes burst out of the ocean around Accelerator and stood on the stone lillies to face him.

Accelerator looked at all the grinning and laughing Hell prisoners for a minute, and he began pointing at all of them, counting them under his breath.

"Eh? What are you doing kid?" said Shuren.

"Well, I'm trying to estimate how much of all of ya I'm gonna have to clean up afterwords." said Accelerator. "Oh and I'm gonna need about 200 janitors with mops to help with the blood by the way..and I hope whoever manages this ocean doesn't mind it looking like red koolaid."

All the prisoners of Hell looked at Accelerator with open jaws for a minute before they all kindled up with fury. "YOU FREAKING STUCK UP KID!! WE'LL TAKE YOU ON!!!"

All the prisoners except for Shuren charged at Accelerator, skating over the water like light insects, all of them seeming to have their own unique abilities.

Accelerator yawned. "Well, guess I know what I'm gonna do for the next five minutes or so.."

There was a flash of blood, and the sound of Accelerator laughing deliriously.

Prisoners flew left and right, screaming, many of them losing limbs or missing heads. Accelerator shot through the attacking group, laughinig his head off as many of the prisoners couldn't even touch him thanks to his vector redirection.

Finally, after a bit, Accelerator stood on the same stone lilly as Shuren, smiling as all around for about 50 feet of ocean, the ocean was stained with red.

"What did I say?" said Accelerator. "Red koolaid..or like Twilight Prankster once told me...Redrum..."

Shuren gritted his teeth in fury as massive flames exploded from his body. "Well well... maybe you are a little stronger then I thought...BUT THAT WON'T SAVE YOU FROM HELL ITSELF!!"

Shuren let a massive wave of fire blast at Accelerator. He laughed as he watched the fire obscure Accelerator for a minute. Then the fire dissapated to reveal Accelerator, completely unharmed and picking at his ear with a bored expression on his face. "Eh? Did you attack yet?"

Shuren stared, his jaw open. "Y-you... Y-you..WHAT THE HELL!?"

"I'm gonna go ahead and assume that you didn't intend that pun just now.." said Accelerator. "Anyways.. if you're done attacking...I think I'll make my move.."

Accelerator laughed with hilarity and slammed his hand right into Shuren's face, Shuren shot away from the vector manipulation and into the ocean with a booming splash.

As Accelerator watched for a minute, suddenly a massive Kushinada burst out of the ocean next to him, and then three more... then a hundred more... as they did, the lilly Accelerator stood on shattered.

"Aw crud!!" Accelerator shouted as he sank into the ocean and was dragged down by an unseen force...

Silence..... nothing but silence....

silence...

When Accelerator awoke, he was lying on a dark smoldering ground where massive mountains and volcanoes erupted everywhere. The air was hot, and magma lakes hissed and bubbled all around.

Accelerator stood up. "Heh.. now it's starting to look like Hell around here... "

"You fool... you don't realize what this is do you!?"

Accelerator looked to his right to see Shuren standing there, his arm was missing, and blood was sizzling from his wounds to the ground.

"This is the lowest level of Hell... within the darkness down here.. the spirit of Hell dwells and commands all Kushinada..here is where your eternal punishment begins!!"

As Shuren said this, a pool of magma formed beneath him and a massive hand tore out and closed around him...pulling him into the ground... Kushinada began rising out of the magma pools, hundreds upon hundreds, all of them at least 80 meters tall.

The monsters all closed in on Accelerator as chains shot out of the ground and latched onto Accelerator's wrists and ankles, regardless of Accelerator's vector control.

"Damn!" Accelerator yelled as he began to sink into the ground.

No matter how much Accelerator struggled though, he kept on sinking lower and lower into the ground. and the Kushinadas kept on drawing closer and closer.. all of them letting out monstrous cries as they raised their hands and moved them closer to Accelerator.

As the dirt began to close over Accelerator's face... and finally only leave his eye exposed.. one image flashed through his mind...

It was Nicole Mavros... her face framed clearly in his head... and then his memory travelled back..

Accelerator was sitting in the main room of Gildart's home... The little girl known as Last Order was sleeping snugly in bed.

Nicole entered the house looking particularly joyous about something.

"What's with you?" Accelerator asked. "I haven't seen you this happy since they said they were going to have an all you could eat spicy currey buffet in Magnolia Town... "

"Oh it's just, I found a very good job that's paying a real good bucket load of Jewel." said Nicole. "It's to wipe out a dark guild that's infested the northern part of the country, but it shoulden't be too much trouble."

"Whose going with you?"

"Oh, just me.." said Nicole.

Accelerator stood up and grabbed Nicole's arm. "You're going to take on an entire dark guild all by yourself!?"

"I'll be fine!"

Accelerator glared at Nicole. "I'm coming with you."

"You don't have to." said Nicole.

"Yeah? Well I want to.." said Accelerator. "And you can keep the money! I'm providing my services absolutely free!"

Nicole looked stunned for a minute, then smiled. "Thank you..but what about-?"

"The Old Geezer can look after Last Order." said Accelerator. "And Misaka Worst is hanging with Cana.. "

Nicole looked cheerful. "Okay! I guess this is a two person job then!"

"Hey... Nicole.." Accelerator whispered.

"Yeah...?"

"I don't care where it is.." said Accelerator. "Wherever you go.. whoever you meet... I'm gonna be there to make sure you don't get a scratch.. hear me?"

Accelerator jolted back to the present. Suddenly his arm burst out of the dirt of Hell, his chain rattling as he did. "NO!!!"

Accelerator began climbing out of the ground. "I NEVER...I NEVER!!! I'LL NEVER GO BACK ON THAT PROMISE!!! I REFUSE TO!!!!"

The Kushinadas all finally closed their hands in over Accelerator, a strange yello light exploding from their palms.. and as that happened.. Accelerator let out a shout. "NICOLE!!!!!!"

________________________________________________________________

Nicole stood there, a tear going down her cheek as she watched the Gates of Hell dissapear. "No... No... Accelerator..."

Nicole fell to her knees, all her will to fight, gone.. as Rogue strode over next to her and chuckled. "Now now... don't be so distressed. I was actually intending to suck all of Fairy Tail down into Hell. It would have been fun. But I used too much magic energy keeping the spell intact... I'll have to wait a few hours before I can use it again.."

Nicole turned to look at Rogue and whispered. "You horrid monster... you horrible evil monster..."

Rogue chuckled again. "Oh no worries. I won't send you to Hell. I'll just kill you the old fashioned way."

Rogue held up a hand and his Shadow Jaws formed, ready to chomp through Nicole. "But don't worry. I'm sure wherever Accelerator is now.. it's probably where he was going to end up anyways when he died.."

"You're wrong.." Nicole murmured.

Rogue was about to attack.. however.. something stopped him. There was something ominous in the air.. something powerfully ominous.

Suddenly, the Gates of Hell reformed themselves in front of Nicole and Rogue, this time being extremely massive, over 100 meters high.

"WHAT!?" said Rogue. "I didn't summon it.. WHAT'S GOING ON!?"

The Gates of Hell began to open, slowly and ominously, until out stepped a ginormous Kushinada.

"One of the Gaurdians of Hell!?" said Rogue stepping back as Nicole looked up. "What does it want!?"

"Th-thats..." Nicole said with amazement as she pointed at the Kushinada. "A-Accelerator?"

Standing on top of the Kushinada, was none other then Accelerator, massive raven-black wings were exploding from his back. And that wasn't all.

Part of Accelerator's torso and his left arm was covered in a twisted looking armor that appeared as if it were made of terrifying skulls. One  side of Accelerator's face had a massive skull armor adornment covering his left eye..

"Hey!" said Accelerator. "If you're going to ask, how it was down there.. well, you could say I had a hell of a time.. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!"

"What happened to you!?" Rogue screamed. "How are you doing this!?"

"Well it's all rather simple." said Accelerator. "The spirit of Hell noticed all my struggling, and decided to have a talk with me.. wondering who it was I was so desperate to get back to.."

Accelerator glanced at Nicole as he said this. "Well.. I told him to mind his own freaking business...and then.."

Accelerator spread his hands out.. I took over Hell and absorbed some of it's power!!"

"YOU DID WHAT!?" Rogue screamed. "YOU OVERPOWERED HELL!?"

"Yeah!" said Accelerator as he leapt off of the Kushinada and landed lightly in front of Rogue. "And you won't believe what the power of Hell can do for an esper..."

"CORRUPTED ROAR OF THE SHADOW DRAGON!!"

Accelerator just stood there as suddenly the Roar Attack was deflected. And not only that, but the roar attack suddenly changed into a powerful looking yellow blast that formed into an explosive looking energy skull that collided back with Rogue and blasted him into the ground.

"Oops." said Accelerator. "Forgot.. that's what happens to attacks that don't obey the laws of physics.. I force em to obey me!"

Rogue got up.. looking extremely injured and stepped back again, looking out of his mind with fear. "W-wait a second..."

"I'm not going to wait..." said Accelerator as his expression changed that of rage. "You tried to drag my girl friend down to Hell... you tried to hurt her... you tried to make her suffer.."

"Hold on.."

"I SAID I'M NOT GOING TO WAIT!!" Accelerator yelled. "NO!! I'M GONNA SHUT YOU UP!! AND I'M GONNA MAKE SURE YOU HAVE HELL TO PAY!!! ROGUE!!!!"

Accelerator's skull armor glowed with a yellow demonic light and his black vector wings merged with the energy and shaped themselves into black skeletal wings made of black bones. Accelerator launched himself forward  and a massive exploding pressure followed him as he shot forward... there was an explosion of spiritual energy shaped like a skull that exploded over the entire area..

Rogue yelled as he flew miles into the forest and exploded into the other side of the hollowed out mountain in an explosion so huge, that all the Himalayas shook in a category 5 earthquake.

Rogue crawled out of the massive 20 mile wide crater, coughing up dirt and blood... his body turning back into a shadow... "Next time..... next... time....ack..."

As Rogue dissapeared, he coughed up more blood. "Curse.. you...curse you.."

Accelerator sighed and the Kushinada dissapeared back into the Gates of Hell that shimmered away.. as if it were never there...

Accelerator walked over to Nicole who stood up and stared at his Skull Clad armor. "So... you have the power of hell now too..."

"Yep.."

Nicole shook her head. "You do realize that anybody who fights you now is totally screwed right?"

Accelerator chuckled as his armor sank into his skin and dissapeared. "So am I gonna get a reward for saving you?"

Nicole kissed Accelerator on the cheek. "That's just a sneak peek..."

"And what do I need for the full package?"

"Tell  me the one thing I need to hear the most."

"I love you."

Nicole smiled. "That's the ticket."

And with that, Accelerator and Nicole kissed.
