Gray P. O. V

I charged Sting once more and he blasted me with his magic again. I was sent tumbling and I hit a tree. Erza launched herself at him while Laxus threw a bolt of Lightning at him. Sting grabbed Ezra's leg and swung her so that heavily if lightning hit her.

She dropped to the ground unconscious and I tried to stand up. A shooting pain ran through my left leg and I cried out in pain. I dropped back to the ground and looked at Sting.

He had already taken down, Romeo and some of the others. If they weren't fighting him they were fighting the Soldiers he had brought along with him. They were trying to storm the house but we were trying our best to stop them.

Using the last bit of the strength I had, I pressed the palms of my hands into the earth. Frost spread from my fingertips as it etched towards the house. It spread faster and faster and it finally reached it. A Soldier went to strike the door but a spire of ice Shit up and impaled him.

The Soldiers stepped back in awe as as a thick wall of ice started to quickly rise around it. It must have been at least twenty feet high. I strained the rest of my energy and I i fell flatter into the ground. I painfully smirked as I fell unconscious.

"Give it up Sting. We aren't going t let you win", said Natsu as he hurled balls of fire at his brother.

"Little brother, it's clear that you and your friends aren't going to win this battle. I will win and you will fall. You can either join me and live or perish and watch this world die", replied Sting.

"I choose my friends. I choose this planet and the people on it", said Natsu.

Sting smiled and shook his head.

"I knew you were going to say that. Now watch your friends die", said Sting.

Before Natsu could react, Sting blasted Gray's wall of Ice. He stood there shocked as it shattered. Millions of shards flew in all directions as it kicked up dust.

The Soldiers cried out in unison as they proceeded to storm the house. Inside the house Cana had taken Makarov and they were escaping out a secret entrance in the house.

Nagisa stood guard in front of the door that led to Juvia's room. On the other side stood Happy and Levy, sword in her hand waiting. Nagisa aimed his gun at the Soldiers and opened fire. One after one they fell. But this moment was short lived as a Soldier shoved his blade through his chest.

Nagisa dropped to his knees as he spit up blood. He looked up at the Soldier that had stabbed him and the Soldier set his foot on him. He pushed Nagisa off of his blade and Nagisa fell back. He fell to floor dead as his blood started to spill out from behind him.

The few Soldiers that were in the house then proceeded to move towards the door. They started striking the door with full force.

Juvia cried out as she heard the wood on the door splint.

"Move over Juvia. I can speed up the healing process", said Happy.

"But that would mean you'd have to transfer dark energy into her", said Juvia.

"Anything that could prove useful to us right now would be great", said Levy as she shoved her blade through the door.

She pulled it out and it was blood soaked. Juvia looked at Happy then back at Yulie. She sighed and let Happy take over. Happy quickly moved to her spot and he carefully placed his hands on both sides of her face.

He spoke in Atlantean and black lines etched across Yulie's face. Nothing seemed to be happening but seconds later her eyes opened and they were pitch black.

On the other side of the door a Soldier went to strike the door once more but it flew off of its hinges and it started to fuse with him. He screamed as he and the wood became one. He fell to the floor dead as the wood continued to cover him.

The others looked at where the door used to be and they all took a step back. There stood Yulie but she looked... different.

Her skin was pale and her once brown hair was now black. Her forest green colored clothing was replaced with a short red dress that seemed to be made out of a rose petal or two. In her left hand was her staff but it was now a gold and silver combination. And the tip was blood red.

She raised it with a glare in her face.

"Die", she said.

Black thorns shot from her staff as they impaled the Soldiers. She dropped her arm and proceeded to walk past the fallen soldiers. She made it outside and she sighed at the sight before her. More ships were appearing and the others struggled to keep fighting.

She grasped her staff with both hands and raised it high into the air. She brought it down quickly to the ground. As soon as it made contact with the ground, dozens of black vines shot out of the ground.

They shot towards the ships and hit them. The ships exploded on contact. Across the city vines continued to take down the ships.

Back at the house Yulie stood there and lifted her staff.

"Call me when you need me", she said to herself.

And with those words her appearance shattered like glass. It dropped to the ground and it all turned into black rose petals. In its wake stood Yulie, normal and back to her old self.

Sting grew angry as he watched the events unfold. He looked back angrily at Yulie. He went to fire a beam of white energy at her but little did he know what was going on behind him.

Behind him stood his shadow. But another shadow appeared and it raised what looked like a dagger of sort. It plunged the dagger into Sting's multiple times.

Sting fell to the ground screaming as his shadow continued to be stabbed. Finally his screams stopped and he lay there dead. The shadow that had killed him rose from the ground. It took the form of a young man with his long black hair tied up in a ponytail.

"Rogue?", asked Natsu confused.

"My apologies. It took me awhile to free myself from the main ship and get here", he replied.

Happy, Levy and Juvia came running out the house and looked at the scene before them.

Juvia let out a low whistle as she saw Sting's crumpled body.

"What happened to him?", she asked.

"Him", said Natsu nudging his hand at Rogue.

She seemed satisfied with that answer and went to go help the others up. Happy and Levy followed suit. Yulie approached Natsu and they both stood next to each other and they looked at each other. Soon everyone else came to join them. Everyone was bruised and probably had a few broken bones.

But it was all worth it. They had stopped the invasion and saved the city. The team looked out over the city as they stood as one.

The people of the city had only one group to thank. And that was Fairlyail.
