[00:04] Nebaru
    This one... move!
[00:07] Nebaru
    Even though it's spun spun.
[00:09] Charle
    Wendy.
[00:10] Nebaru
    You, what dragon?
[00:13] Wendy
    I'm the Sky Dragon... Sky Dragon Slayer!
[00:17] Nebaru
    No... a Cocoon Dragon.
[00:21] Nebaru
    Coo-coo.
[00:22] Wendy
    It's Wendy!
[00:24] Nebaru
    Let's spin spin again!
[00:26] Wendy
    I'm not falling for the same trick twice!
[00:31] Nebaru
    Roll roll, Coo-coo.
[00:36] Wendy
    Sky Dragon's Claw!
[00:43] Wendy
    Final blow!
[00:51] Nebaru
    Coo-coo is fun,
[00:53] Nebaru
    so no eat her yet.
[00:55] Nebaru
    Do what I come here to do.
[00:59] Wendy
    Oh, no!
[01:00] Nebaru
    Spin, spin.
[01:02] Charle
    The orb!
[01:02] Nebaru
    Kaboom!
[01:14] Touka
    The second orb has been destroyed.
[01:17] Touka
    Three more left.
[01:19] Touka
    Three more to go until Aldoron
    the Wood Dragon loses his power.
SIGN    A Card in the Hand
[03:04] Kiria
    What was that shaking just now?
[03:06] Laxus
    An orb must have been destroyed.
[03:09] Laxus
    Now we have three more to go.
[03:12] Laxus
    And one of them is right here.
[03:15] Kiria
    What do you plan to do
    after you weaken Aldoron?
[03:20] Laxus
    White him out to fight the rest
    of the Five Dragon Gods.
[03:25] Laxus
    The White Mage plans to take
    the Wood Dragon God's power.
[03:29] Kiria
    I see.
[03:30] Kiria
    Our goal is to weaken him so we can eat him.
[03:34] Kiria
    Our objectives might be different,
    but we share the need to break the orbs.
[03:40] Laxus
    Seems that way.
[03:41] Kiria
    Then what are we doing here,
    fighting in front of the orb?
[03:46] Laxus
    You started it, remember?
[03:49] Kiria
    That's right... since you looked so yummy.
[03:55] Kiria
    You're a perfect appetizer.
[04:00] Erza/I
    Now is my chance to take the orb
    since Kiria and Laxus are fighting...
[04:06] Erza/I
    And yet...
[04:09] Erza/I
    I'm stuck here!
[04:12] Jellal
    Erza, I shall now dye you white.
[04:16] Erza
    Too close!
[04:17] Jellal
    There's nothing to fear.
[04:19] Erza
    No, stop it.
[04:21] Jellal
    Let go and entrust yourself to me.
    Everything...
[04:25] Erza
    Jellal, release these bindings.
[04:29] Erza
    It reminds me of what
    I don't want to remember.
[04:33] Erza
    I want to reach for your shoulders.
[04:37] Erza
    I want to touch your cheeks.
[04:40] Jellal
    Erza.
[04:43] Jellal
    I-I'm sorry.
[04:45] Jellal
    I won't ever do that to you again.
[04:52] Jellal
    Wha... what are you doing, Erza?!
[04:56] Erza
    It's your turn to be tied up!
[05:00] Jellal
    Very well.
[05:01] Jellal
    I'll accept everything you do.
[05:04] Jellal
    Come on, I'm ready when you are.
[05:06] Erza
    That's not what we're doing!
[05:07] Erza
    Stay where you are!
[05:09] Jellal
    I see! I'm getting teased!
[05:13] Erza
    I must hurry to the church.
[05:18] Natsu
    Come to think of it, I've never
    fought seriously against Gramps.
[05:22] Wraith
    Do not see me as the one you know.
[05:26] Makarov(Wraith)
    The old man's magical energy
    combined with mine,
[05:29] Makarov(Wraith)
    and it has created an invincible strength.
[05:38] Natsu
    That hurt!
[05:39] Natsu
    Wait, no more going through the walls?
[05:44] Natsu
    I mean, why can you hit me
    even though I'm a ghost?!
[05:48] Natsu
    My actual body couldn't attack you!
[05:51] Makarov(Wraith)
    We're in entirely different leagues.
[05:55] Wraith
    I'm a ghost.
[05:57] Wraith
    Technically, you're just a thoughtform.
[05:59] Wraith
    I get to decide which attack
    does and doesn't land.
[06:03] Natsu
    I don't really get it, but you're cheating.
[06:07] Makarov (Wraith)
    No, you're unconsciously
    doing the same as well.
[06:13] Wraith
    Fundamentally, ghosts can't touch anything.
[06:16] Makarov (Wraith)
    Yet you punched the cat I possessed.
[06:20] Makarov (Wraith)
    And if you wish it,
    you can hit this old man, too.
[06:24] Natsu
    I can't tell if being a ghost
    is convenient or not.
[06:28] Wraith
    Anyhow, who is this old man?
[06:32] Wraith
    The synchro rate is off the chart.
[06:35] Natsu
    He is the master of my guild.
[06:38] Wraith
    A guild master?
[06:40] Wraith
    That explains his immense magical energy.
[06:42] Wraith
    And judging by his age,
[06:47] Wraith
    he might have experienced
    being on the brink of death.
[06:51] Wraith
    But that alone wouldn't explain
    this level of synchronization...
[06:56] Wraith/I
    Could he possibly meet the third condition?!
[07:00] Wraith/I
    A blood relative?
[07:02] Wraith/I
    Is this old man somehow related to me?
[07:06] Natsu
    First possessing Happy, and now Gramps...
[07:10] Wraith/I
    I have no memories prior to my death.
[07:14] Wraith/I
    Which is why I might be able to get them back
[07:18] Wraith/I
    if I could find and judge
    the person who killed me.
[07:22] Natsu
    My friends aren't your vessels, all right?!
[07:26] Wraith/I
    Was there someone I could call a friend?
[07:30] Wraith/I
    But more importantly...
[07:42] Makarov (Wraith)
    What power.
[07:44] Makarov (Wraith)
    This is his magical energy!
[07:52] Natsu
    As expected of Gramps.
[07:54] Natsu
    But you know...
[07:57] Natsu
    the real Gramps is much stronger!
[08:02] Natsu
    Sorry, Gramps.
[08:04] Natsu
    It's time to get serious!
[08:06] Natsu
    Fire Dragon King's Demolishing Strike!
[08:16] Wraith/I
    H-He has magical energy that surpasses mine?
[08:21] Wraith/I
    No matter how much magical energy he has,
    the aging has taken its toll...
[08:28] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    Stop talking like an old man!
[08:32] Wraith
    What is this?!
[08:33] (Flashback) Young Yajima
    I'm pretty fed up with fighting and whatnot.
[08:37] (Flashback) Young Goldmine
    Yeah, cause you're a weakling.
[08:40] (Flashback) Young Rob
    Don't say that, Goldmine.
[08:43] Wraith
    Is this the old man's memory?
[08:46] (Flashback) Young Yajima
    Maybe I'll just quit the guild and
    become a councilperson or something.
[08:50] (Flashback) Young Goldmine
    Do you have to choose our mortal enemy?
[08:55] Young Bob
    Well, I'm thinking of going
    independent myself.
[08:59] (Flashback) Young Rob
    Good grief.
[09:00] Young Makarov
    Bob, you're thinking
    about leaving Fairy Tail?!
[09:04] Young Porlyusica
    And what's wrong with that?
    There are too many people.
[09:07] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    You can't even use magic,
    so why are you in the guild?
[09:12] (Flashback) Young Porlyusica
    Do you have any idea how many times
    my potions have saved your ass?!
[09:16] (Flashback) Young Goldmine
    I don't want to hear a husband-wife quarrel.
[09:18] (Flashback) Young Rob
    You two are so close.
[09:20] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    We're not married!
[09:21] (Flashback) Young Porlyusica
    I-I'd never pick a human like him!
[09:23] (Flashback) Young Rob
    You're bright red.
[09:25] (Flashback) Young Yajima
    Tie the knot already.
[09:26] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    Hell, no!
[09:27] (Flashback) Young Porlyusica
    This is why I hate humans!
[09:29] (Flashback) Wizard A
    Hurry!
[09:30] (Flashback) Wizard B
    Coming through!
[09:32] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    What's the matter?
[09:33] Wizard A
    Someone got hurt!
[09:35] Wizard B
    Got attacked by a swarm of monsters on a job!
[09:38] (Flashback) Wizard A
    Porlyusica, please!
[09:40] (Flashback) Wizard A
    Help him!
[09:41] (Flashback) Young Porlyusica
    Step aside.
[09:42] (Flashback) Young Goldmine
    Jeez, that looks bad!
[09:45] (Flashback) Young Yajima
    Hey, hang in there!
[09:49] (Flashback) Young Porlyusica
    This is...
[09:51] (Flashback) Wraith
    Am I...
[09:55] (Flashback) Wraith
    Am I beyond... help, you think?
[10:00] Wraith/I
    Huh?
[10:02] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    Don't be stupid! You're gonna be all right!
[10:05] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    Isn't that right, Porlyusica?!
[10:08] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    Please, help him!
[10:11] (Flashback) Wraith
    Makarov, why are you so... desperate?
[10:15] (Flashback) Wraith
    I don't remember us... being that close.
[10:21] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    It doesn't matter!
[10:24] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    We're friends, aren't we?!
[10:26] (Flashback) Wraith
    You're... right.
[10:28] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    Don't you die, Wraith!
[10:30] (Flashback) Wraith
    You know my name?
[10:35] (Flashback) Wraith
    I didn't expect that.
[10:37] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    What are you talking about?!
[10:40] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    We're all members of Fairy Tail!
[10:43] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    We're family! All of us!
[10:54] (Flashback) Young Makarov
    Damn it!
[11:00] Wraith/I
    So, I was a wizard of Fairy Tail.
[11:06] Wraith/I
    The bond of the guild that's thicker than blood
    created this level of synchronization.
[11:20] Wraith
    I lose.
[11:21] Natsu
    Huh?
[11:23] Wraith
    I remembered everything.
[11:25] Wraith
    I can no longer fight you.
[11:30] Wraith
    After all, you're my family, too.
[11:32] Natsu
    Hey, your body...
[11:35] Wraith
    Yes. I can finally go back.
[11:39] Wraith
    Thank you for finding me.
[11:43] Makarov
    Wraith.
[11:46] Makarov
    I've missed you.
[11:49] Wraith
    I've missed you, too, Makarov.
[11:57] Natsu
    What the heck is going on?
[12:00] Natsu
    Well, whatever.
[12:02] Natsu
    I took down Gramps anyhow.
[12:06] Natsu
    Now I'm back into my own body.
[12:09] Happy
    Natsu!
[12:16] Gray
    What was the earthquake just now?
[12:18] Juvia
    Perhaps an orb was broken.
[12:22] Gray
    I guess there's no time to dawdle.
[12:24] Cana
    Now, now, now.
[12:26] Cana
    What's the rush, eh?
[12:31] Juvia
    Cana-san!
[12:33] Gray
    Seriously? She's drunk even under hypnosis?
[12:39] Gray
    Looks like it'll be easier
    than the Thunder God Tribe.
[12:43] Juvia
    Gray-sama, please be careful!
[12:46] Gray
    Sorry, but I'll take you down in one hit.
[12:53] Cana
    Oh? Gray is upside down.
[12:57] Gray
    You drunk!
[13:00] Cana
    River of light, guided by fairies, gather!
[13:04] Cana
    Shine now, to break the fangs of evil!
[13:08] Juvia
    Fairy Glitter?!
[13:10] Gray
    In the middle of the town?!
[13:12] Gray
    Is she insane?!
[13:14] Cana
    Fairy...
[13:19] Lucy
    I made it!
[13:21] Lucy
    Fluffy-Wuffy, special craft by Aries.
[13:23] Lucy
    You can stop the spells
    that need incantations.
[13:27] Juvia
    Lucy!
[13:28] Gray
    What's a Fluffy-Wuffy?
[13:30] Lucy
    Gray, Juvia. I was just looking for Cana.
[13:34] Gray
    I'm surprised you found her.
[13:36] Lucy
    I used Plue's only ability,
[13:39] Lucy
    a nose with a Natsu-level sense of smell!
[13:42] Juvia
    By nose, does she mean
    that drill-looking thing?
[13:46] Gray
    Yup, that drill-looking thing.
[13:53] Lucy
    I know Cana carries them around with her.
[13:57] Juvia
    She's totally fondling
    Cana's breasts in the confusion.
[14:02] Juvia
    You want to do the same, Gray-sama?
[14:05] Gray
    I do not!
[14:06] Lucy
    There, I found them!
[14:08] Lucy
    Magic Cards!
[14:10] Gray
    The cards Cana uses all the time.
[14:13] Lucy
    Yes. And they have the power
    to seal people in.
[14:17] Gray
    You're right.
[14:19] Lucy
    We can use these to gather everyone
    and protect them at the same time.
[14:24] Gray
    But it's Cana's magic.
[14:27] Lucy
    I'm also a holder-type wizard,
[14:29] Lucy
    so I think I can use them,
    if not as well as she does.
[14:33] Lucy
    And unlike the keys for the celestial spirits,
    these cards don't require a contract.
[14:38] Juvia
    Then you can turn everyone back with these?
[14:42] Lucy
    Turning them back is another story,
[14:45] Lucy
    but I think I can protect them
    for the time being.
[14:47] Gray
    Wow, you're pretty smart, aren't you?
[14:50] Lucy
    To start off, let's trap Cana in the card!
[14:58] Lucy
    Why?!
[15:00] Gray
    How should I know?!
[15:01] Juvia
    Lucy got trapped in the card.
[15:04] Lucy
    It's a counter.
[15:05] Lucy
    Cana laid a trap on her magic
    so that it wouldn't be exploited—
[15:10] Cana
    That's not it.
[15:13] Cana
    Those cards are indeed commercially
    available ones that can be used by anyone.
[15:18] Cana
    But to trap a person in it,
    you need to know the trick.
[15:23] Lucy
    Cana.
[15:24] Cana
    Here.
[15:28] Cana
    There we go.
[15:32] Cana
    See?
[15:34] Juvia
    Cana-san, why?
[15:36] Lucy
    Did you break the hypnosis?
[15:38] Gray
    Not likely.
[15:41] Gray
    Even if the hypnosis is gone, she shouldn't
    be able to use magic, like Juvia.
[15:46] Cana
    Hypnosis?
[15:48] Cana
    Why the heck am I dressed like this?
[15:52] Cana
    This sucks!
[15:54] Cana
    Hey, I'm buck naked underneath!
[15:58] Lucy
    Could it be that she wasn't under
    hypnosis at all because she was drunk?
[16:05] Gray
    Then what was the Fairy Glitter for?!
[16:09] Juvia
    Alcohol made her do it?
[16:11] Lucy
    Yikes!
[16:15] Lucy
    But I'm so glad, Cana!
[16:17] Cana
    Oh, come on. What's going on?
[16:21] Gray
    This might save everyone.
[16:23] Juvia
    Let's go find them.
[16:27] Kiria
    Well, then.
[16:28] Kiria
    Can I eat you now, Lightning Dragon?
[16:32] Laxus
    I don't know who you are,
    but I've seen your strength.
[16:37] Laxus
    You can't beat me.
[16:38] Kiria
    I wouldn't be so sure!
[16:44] Kiria
    I've cut your strength.
[16:47] Kiria
    Now, you'll be my toy!
[16:53] Laxus
    My strength?
[16:54] Laxus
    Sorry, lady, but I have no such thing.
[16:59] Laxus
    I'm in the guild because I'm weak.
[17:01] Laxus
    But I don't think that's a bad thing.
[17:04] Kiria
    It can't be!
[17:07] Laxus
    Roaring Thunder!
[17:12] Laxus
    It's okay to be weak
    in front of your friends.
[17:16] Laxus
    No need to push yourself too hard.
[17:18] Laxus
    Well, I know that'll be tough for Erza.
[17:23] Kiria/I
    A man with a weakness in his heart
    while possessing such strength...
[17:29] Kiria/I
    I might seriously be in love!
[17:33] Wendy
    What is this cocoon?
[17:34] Wendy
    It won't come off!
[17:36] Charle
    Don't worry about me and go after that guy!
[17:39] Wendy
    But...
[17:41] Charle
    I'm sure he went after
    the orbs in the other towns!
[17:45] Charle
    He must be stopped!
[17:47] Charle
    If you beat him, this cocoon should come off.
[17:52] Wendy
    Okay.
[17:54] Wendy
    I promise I'll come back for you!
[18:02] Wendy
    There you are.
[18:03] Wendy
    You're not getting away!
[18:09] Nebaru
    Coo-coo!
[18:21] Nebaru
    You...
[18:22] Nebaru
    I let you go because you're interesting.
[18:25] Nebaru
    But now, you've come to me on your own.
[18:28] Nebaru
    You are a fool, Coo-coo.
[18:29] Wendy
    I came here to stop you.
[18:33] Wendy
    You'd better be prepared!
[18:34] Nebaru
    Not possible, silly coo.
[18:41] Wendy
    Chewing gum?
[18:43] Wendy
    You're swallowing it?!
[18:45] Nabaru
    I eat chewing gum.
[18:47] Nabaru
    Power up complete.
[18:56] Nabaru
    I eat you.
[19:01] Cana
    I got Macao, Wakaba, and Romeo!
[19:04] Juvia
    Who could have defeated them?
[19:06] Gray
    Judging from the injuries, maybe Natsu?
[19:08] Lucy
    Up ahead, I believe...
[19:12] Lucy
    There she is!
[19:13] Lucy
    Lisanna!
[19:15] Cana
    I got Lisanna!
[19:18] Gray
    This magical energy...
[19:20] Lucy
    Mira-san and Elfman are nearby.
[19:22] Lucy
    So are the members of Diabolos.
[19:25] Gray
    That's troublesome.
[19:27] Gray
    Mira-chan's against us now,
    plus that ash guy?
[19:31] Juvia
    What if we trap them all in Cana-san's cards?
[19:34] Cana
    It won't work on a target
    feeling a lot of hostility.
[19:37] Cana
    So we'll have to knock them
    out first or something.
[19:40] Lucy/I
    I have to think. There has to be a way.
[19:49] Laxus
    The order was to destroy this thing, right?
[19:54] Erza
    Hold it!
[19:57] Laxus
    Erza.
[19:59] Erza
    I won't let you touch it.
[20:06] Erza/I
    Did Laxus defeat a strong foe like her?
[20:11] Erza/I
    I knew he was strong.
[20:13] Erza/I
    I have no idea how I can defeat Laxus, even
    when he's under the White Mage's hypnosis.
[20:20] Erza/I
    If only Natsu or Gray were here...
[20:25] Laxus
    Don't get in my way.
[20:31] Erza/I
    I must stop him.
[20:35] Happy
    Natsu, why are we going to
    the town on the back?
[20:39] Natsu
    Isn't it obvious?
[20:41] Natsu
    There are five towns total, and
    the town on the back is in the middle.
[20:45] Happy
    So?
[20:46] Natsu
    Usually, the strong boss
    is in the middle, right?
[20:50] Happy
    Huh? Is that true?
[20:51] Natsu
    I bet Laxus or Mira will be there.
[20:53] Happy
    That is some deduction.
[20:55] Natsu
    I'd even settle for Jellal!
[20:58] Jellal/I
    Erza... How long are you
    going to tantalize me?
[21:04] Natsu
    Oh.
[21:05] Happy
    There's a beam of light.
[21:08] Natsu
    Something's gotta be there.
[21:09] Happy
    Maybe the orb?
[21:12] Natsu
    Let's go, Happy!
[21:13] Happy
    Aye, sir!
[21:22] Natsu
    There's someone.
[21:26] Natsu
    She's...
[21:28] Happy
    The White Mage?!
[21:30] Natsu
    Why is she passed out here?!
[21:33] Natsu
    Happy, where's the orb?
[21:35] Happy
    Looks like it's safe.
[21:38] Natsu
    What's going on?
[21:40] Happy
    Should we beat her up
    while we have the chance?
[21:42] Natsu
    You want to beat up an unconscious person?!
[21:46] Happy
    Yeah, that's a little much, huh?
[21:48] Natsu
    All right, brace yourself!
[21:50] Happy
    Why are you fired up?!
[21:52] Natsu
    Asleep or not, a girl or not,
    it doesn't matter.
[21:56] Natsu
    She's an enemy of our guild.
[21:59] Natsu
    I'll do anything for the guild. I mean it.
[22:05] Touka
    Natsu-sama...
[22:10] Touka
    Save me!
