07x259 - Tartaros Chapter – 00:00

[bunniefuu]

[NARRATOR] The wizards

of Fairy Tail have fought

a long and difficult battle

against the demons of Tartaros,

eventually defeating all

but Kyoka and Mard Geer.

The situation has been

complicated however,

by the appearance of

Acnologia and Igneel,

who are now engaged

in a ferocious duel.

[ACNOLOGIA growls]

[IGNEEL roars]

[MARD GEER]

Curse of Thorns.

[NATSU grunting]

[MARD GEER gasps]

How could he dodge a curse

that he's never seen before?

[NATSU]

Fire Dragon...

Iron Fist!

[NARRATOR] As Natsu fights

to steal the book of E.N.D,

Kyoka takes on her true

form and Body Links

to the Faces'

activation Lacrima.

Offering her life to

speed their detonation.

Empowered by her

transformation,

she bears down on Erza

with a sinister zeal.

[HAPPY] Did she say

she's using Body Link?

So that means...

she's a part of it?

Why would she do that?

They must've wanted the Faces'

detonation accelerated.

[KYOKA] I just made

things very easy for you.

If you k*ll me, then you

will stop the Faces.

[KYOKA]

Though it really doesn't matter,

because I'll die either way.

[ERZA] Well you certainly

are sure of yourself.

But have you ever even

considered the possibility

that you could lose?

[KYOKA]

No need.

For I have something you don't.

I am Kyoka, Goddess

of the sl*ve Planet.

[ERZA gasps]

And now I embrace my

true Etherious Form!

What?

Uh!

[ERZA gasping]

No, Erza!

She broke her armor with

nothing but those talons.

That's the way, Kyoka!

Keep on swipin'!

Phoo, Can't even think

of a starting bid

for how much you're

worth in that form.

That lady's real strong.

But Erza'll win, right?

[MINERVA (NEO)]

This i s bad.

And we're running out of time.

[panting]

[yells]

Uh, oh!

Doesn't look like we'll be

getting minutes after all.

At this rate, we won't

even get five.

This is scary.

Tartaros doesn't

have to defeat us.

They only have to wait us out.

Take her down! Quickly!

I intend to.

[yells]

I'm out of your league

now, human. Back down!

Has she grown stronger still?

[KYOKA] Yes. And I

will continue to do so.

This constant,

inexorable strengthening

is the nature of my curse.

[ERZA growls]

My power waxes like

an everlasting moon.

If that's the truth, she's

been toying with us till now.

It seems that curses truly

are superior to magic.

[ERZA yells]

Now that I'm linked to

the activation lacrima,

I've nothing to fear.

I'll surely defeat you.

But my life is forfeit,

regardless.

Why's that?!

[KYOKA]

It's the price I chose to pay.

[KYOKA] One I would gladly pay

again to bring back E.N.D!

I'll do anything to ensure

our return to Zeref!

She's breaking that armor, too!

Such incredible power!

[ERZA]

I don't understand it.

Why's this something

you'd die for?!

Because it's our destiny!

Ha!

Our maker created

us for one reason.

To be by his side as he ushers

in a new age of despair!

How frightened you

must be to know

that your existence is

devoid of any purpose.

We do not suffer from

such existential woes.

Our maker made

his reasons clear.

And what were those?

Did he create you just to die?

How can you know victory when

you've thrown your life away?

Be silent!

[ERZA groaning]

What is she doing?!

[KYOKA yelling]

[PANTHERLILY, HAPPY scream]

[FROSCH, LECTOR scream]

[screaming]

[groaning]

[ALL screaming]

[ACNOLOGIA roars]

[IGNEEL]

Come then, and do your worst!

Looks intense.

And it hasn't even hit us yet.

[JET]

Good point.

Run!

[ELFMAN grunts]

We need to take cover!

[ELFMAN]

I've got you!

[LISANNA]

It's so hot!

What do we do?!

[LUMMYS laughing]

[JET]

Well, at least they're gone.

[DROY]

Yeah, and good riddance to 'em!

[LUMMYS scream]

[DROY]

This is it!

We're finally done for!

Don't you go and

give up on me now!

[CANA]

Listen up!

Everybody needs to take

the nearest cover

they can immediately!

[ALL grunt]

[MACAO]

Here it comes!

[REEDUS] At this rate

we'll be blown away!

They've been going

at it for a while now.

And neither one shows

any signs of stopping.

[IGNEEL] I've been fighting

since you were a pup!

Incoming. Get down!

[WAKABA] What the heck

are they doin' now?

[MACAO] Why don't'cha poke your

head out and let us know?

[CANA] There's nothing we

can do but watch and endure.

This fight is way beyond us.

Thought things were

gettin' crazy before.

Natsu.

Don't know where

he went, do ya?

No, I don't. But...

I know that he's fine.

[ALL gasp]

I can feel it.

I actually believe that,

comin' from you.

So, look, for the time being,

we need to focus on

gettin' him a cure.

[MARD GEER] The flames you wield

bear the scent of that dragon.

I guess it must

run in the family.

[NATSU grunting]

[IGNEEL] Make sure you get

a good look at that guy.

See that book?

That's the Book of E.N.D!

Steal that book.

Because you're the only

one who can, Natsu.

Now, listen.

You are not to open

or destroy that book,

under any circumstances.

Just take it. You understand?

For payment, I will tell you

everything you wish to know.

I'm gonna take

that book o'yours.

Ya hear?

[MARD GEER]

Hmph.

[NATSU]

I promised my dad I would.

[ERZA groaning]

[ERZA]

Why... can't I move?

That looks painful.

And it can't help that I've

roughed up your little nerves.

I could t*rture you

with a feather now.

Not that I plan to.

[BOTH groaning]

Must... hold on!

Can't give in to the pain!

It hurts!

I... don't think I can take it.

[MINERVA (NEO) groaning]

Some of my excess power

seems to have afflicted

your comrades, Erza.

Isn't that interesting?

[exhales]

[ERZA groaning, screams]

It feels like I'm being

stabbed from all over.

Even making the

slightest of movements

causes my entire body

to be wracked with pain!

I'm feel like I'm gonna die.

I feel the same, bud.

But Erza's got it worse,

so hang in there for her.

[ERZA groaning]

You must endure it.

Don't let her win.

[ERZA groaning]

[ERZA screams]

You've gotta keep fighting!

That demon.

This sure does

take me back, Erza.

To the torch-lit

dungeon where we met.

[ERZA groaning]

But this armor...

it's wrong!

Lose it!

I want you just as vulnerable

now as you were then.

Leave her alone!

Come on, Erza.

You're all we have.

After everything, don't

let it end like this.

[KYOKA] My final act in this

world will be to t*rture you.

One last time.

I'll take everything from

you except for your terror.

Beginning with your sight.

[laughs]

Please, no more!

[KYOKA]

Next, your sense of touch.

Taste.

Smell.

You've already won!

Don't do this!

You're gonna k*ll her!

[KYOKA]

One sense left, Erza.

These will be the last

words you ever hear.

[KYOKA]

Ha, ha! You fought for nothing!

Perhaps you stood a

chance against us once,

but even if you did,

you've lost it!

I die knowing your

kind is doomed!

No way. It's not true.

[KYOKA]

But you, I'll leave alive.

I'll tell the Underworld King

to make you his plaything.

He'll do it, as a favor to me.

He'll make you suffer till

you beg him for death.

[KYOKA]

Day after day. Piece by piece.

He will dismember you.

Tear you asunder, body and soul.

I must confess, I envy him.

Ha, ha. Come now.

Why the silent treatment?

It's almost like you can't

hear a word I'm saying!

[KYOKA laughs]

I may be blind...

[gasps]

But I can still... see you.

You can strip me bare.

Break my armor, my senses.

[KYOKA]

Uh.

[ERZA] But there's a light

you'll never take from me.

[ERZA grunts, pants]

No way. She's back on her feet.

But how does she know what

to do without any senses?

You're beaten. Lay down.

[ERZA]

Sight. Sound.

These are luxuries, both.

All that's needed

is the light within.

You would understand

that if you had one.

It would've led you to

protect your comrades!

[ERZA yells]

[KYOKA groans]

[ERZA] You were created

to live in darkness!

With pain your only guide,

it's you who must be frightened!

And what a tragic

creature you are.

For you've never known

the light you lack.

Impossible.

You shouldn't be able

to sense anything!

You always find

a way, don't you?

[IGNEEL, ACNOLOGIA roar]

Did they just crash?

I think one dragged

the other down.

Igneel and Acnologia

disappeared.

But where did they go?

[GAJEEL]

Uh?

What's the matter, Gajeel?

[GAJEEL]

There's something beneath us.

[LEVY]

Not the dragons.

I think it is. They must'a

taken the fight below.

What?

Ground's about to

get real unstable.

[ELFMAN] Something tells me

this isn't an earthquake.

You don't think that--

I mean, we saw 'em go down.

On the plus side,

at least we don't have to worry

about getting burnt alive now.

Don't count on it.

I can feel the heat from here.

Nobody's safe. Not while

they're still fighting.

[ROMEO]

Hey, dad?

[MACAO]

I'm here.

[WAKABA]

Yeah, for now at least.

This shaking... What is it?

Could it have to do with th--

[ALL yelp]

Everyone grab onto

whatever you can find!

[WAKABA, ROMEO gasp]

[CANA] We just can't catch

a friggin' break, can we?!

[ROMEO] Dad, you're

on the wrong side!

[MACAO]

Don't worry 'bout me, I'm fine!

[IGNEEL roars]

Ah, you're kiddin' me!

[LUCY, JUVIA, LEVY gasp]

[NATSU] Sounds like Dad

and old Dark Wings

are really gettin' into it.

I'm growing rather weary

of all this chaos.

And I'm gettin' tired

of hearin' you act

like you're above it all!

[KYOKA]

This can't be real.

I've robbed her of almost

every sense she has.

Not to mention,

she should still be writhing

in agony from my curse!

[ERZA yells]

Ah!

There's no possible way

you can see where I stand!

Nor can you track me through

the sound of my voice!

[KYOKA]

So how are you finding me?

This is strange.

Perhaps this means that there

really is a sixth sense.

Maybe losing her other senses

helped that one to pop up!

Hey, I bet you can

do the same thing

if ya lemme blindfold

you n' stuff your ears!

Oh. Yeah!

You guys might be right,

but I'm pretty sure

you're overthinkin' it.

[ERZA growls]

It's 'Cause she's Erza!

[ALL]

That is a good point.

--[ERZA grunts]

--[KYOKA groans]

I'll destroy all of you!

The countdown.

Quick, Erza!

You've gotta stop it!

It's no use!

She still can't hear!

[KYOKA yells]

[ERZA groaning]

[ERZA screams]

Erza, no!

[KYOKA] You dare believe that

a lowly human such as you

can stand against a demon of

the Books of Zeref and live?

I will teach you your place!

[ERZA gasping]

This is dire! Erza's been cursed

to feel the pain of every

single blow a thousand-fold!

I don't know howmmuch more

of this she can withstand.

Not to mention Kyoka's

getting stronger

with every passing second.

[KYOKA]

How...?

How is she not

crippled by the pain?

[KYOKA]

Why is she not cowering in fear?

[KYOKA screams]

[KYOKA]

She's too strong!

She did it!

Forty seconds!

We gotta move fast!

Finish her off

while you still can!

[MINERVA (NEO) grunts]

Come on!

[HAPPY]

Erza!

[MINERVA (NEO) grunts]

[panting]

[MINERVA (NEO)]

She's smiling.

Whoopididoo! We did it!

Every last one of those

Faces has blown!

[ERZA gasping]

[LECTOR, FROSCH whimper]

[FRANMALTH]

We win, you lose! This is it!

The end of all you

worthless wizards!

Tartaros' wish is

finally comin' true!

[MIRAJANE]

In a world without magic...

What are we?

[LUCY] Mard Geer and Natsu

renew their fight in earnest.

Vying for custody of

the book of E.N.D.

At first, Mard Geer

has the upper hand,

but he's interrupted by the

arrival of Sting and Rogue.

Both intent on finishing

what they started.

Natsu takes heart in the

presence of these new allies.

But it seems despair is always

lurking in the shadows.

Next Time: "Tartaros Chapter

The Girl in the Crystal."

The end is nigh.
