09x278 - The Lamia Scale Thanksgiving Festival

[bunniefuu]

Magnolia used to be

a town full of life.

And our guild was at its heart.

But those warm and

joyous days are gone.

[NATSU snores]

I'll take all the

fish. So yummy.

Oh, my hot icy, hunk.

Cherish those dreams.

And rest well.

[ERZA] Because this may be the

final dawn we face together.

[ERZA]

We'll need our strength.

And each other.

[NATSU]

The final one?

Not if I can help it.

Yeah, that's right.

Because we're not backing

down no matter what.

We're still here.

And we're ready to fight.

It'll be tough,

but Fairy Tail isn't gonna

give up that easily.

Come on, let's go.

[NATSU] We'll bust in

and get our guild back!

[NATSU]

For the sake of our future.

For Fairy Tail.

We shall.

Damn straight!

Indeed!

Aye, Sir!

[LUCY]

And on that morning, it began.

Together, we raced toward

Fairy Tail's final battle.

[WOMAN]

The time is upon us.

Ugh. My belly is

so sad and empty.

[HAPPY] I guess I could give

you my fish if you need it.

[NATSU] Meh. Not unless

it's been cooked.

[HAPPY]

Are you crazy?!

Fish is at its yummiest

when it's raw and slimy.

I gotta wonder how

many times I've heard

this exact same argument before.

It's been a whole year

since we've been together,

but you guys make it seem

like no time has passed.

[NATSU] Speaking of time...

Lucy, are we there yet?

[LUCY] I think it's just

a little bit farther.

[LUCY screams]

[LUCY]

Whoa! That's huge!

And so adorable! What is it?

Wait, I think I know what

kind of monster this is.

First, it lures people

in with its fluffy fur,

then it gobbles them

up in a single bite!

[LUCY screams]

[snorts]

[roars]

[LUCY screaming]

Natsu! Time to roast this pig!

[NATSU]

Not really feelin' it.

What did you say?!

I heard these things are

supposed to be super tasty!

Yeah? Come on!

[GIANT PIG roaring]

[yells]

[GIANT PIG squeals]

He's goin' in my belly, pronto!

So, do you prefer your

meat cooked or raw?

[LUCY]

Seriously?!

[NATSU] There's nothin' like

a meal you make yourself!

[LUCY] I gotta say, it tastes

way better than it looks.

[HAPPY] You guys can keep it.

I'm a % raw fish kinda cat.

What's the matter?

Ya full already?

[LUCY]

I was just thinking about stuff.

That last battle feels

like forever ago.

[NATSU, HAPPY]

Hm?

[LUCY]

Against Tartaros.

[LUCY] We'd never fought

against anyone so powerful.

But still, we rose

to the occasion

and gave it everything we had.

We did. And it

sure wasn't easy.

But we pulled it off.

Just like always.

You're right.

Don't you guys think that this

whole thing is kinda unfair?

[LUCY]

Whaddaya mean?

We scored a huge victory,

and Master Makarov went and

broke up the guild anyway.

[LUCY]

Yeah.

I know he had his reasons

for doing it, but still...

[HAPPY]

What?

I never gave up on the dream.

That we'd all be together again.

I know I've said it

before, but it's true.

I'm so glad that we

finally found each other.

Now the three of us can go

look for the other members.

They're all out there somewhere.

[HAPPY]

Hey! What's the big idea?!

I told ya nothin'

beats the flavor

of a perfectly grilled fish!

[HAPPY] Come on, ya big meanie,

make it raw again! Please!

Yeah, okay.

Check this out, Happy!

[HAPPY screams]

[HAPPY]

No! That's not raw!

You're gonna turn it into

ashes, ya stupid jerk!

[NATSU]

Whoops! Oh, you're right!

Sorry, buddy! Hey, don't cry!

I'll go out...

[LUCY]

Well, so much for nostalgia.

[NATSU]

I promise!

[HAPPY]

Where are we now?

[LUCY]

Tuly Village.

What do you guys think about

getting a room here

for the night?

Aye, aye!

Uh. Somethin' wrong, pal?

[NATSU]

Huh...

[HAPPY]

Whoa, isn't that the clock tower

you demolished a while back?

[NATSU] Yeah. Looks like

they were able to fix it.

[HAPPY] Sorta. But the new

part doesn't quite match.

[NATSU]

Nah.

[LUCY]

Hm?

Should I trash it again?

Of course not, ya flame brain!

[NATSU grunting]

[screams]

I'm goin' crazy!

A whole year trainin' my

butt off to get stronger

and for what?

I fought the winners

of the Magic Games,

but they were all sucky.

I barely even broke a

sweat with those losers!

I had a plan to come back

and put Gray in his place.

And then it was gonna be

on to Erza and Laxus,

the big ol' lightning dolt!

Yeah, well, Gray's one thing,

but fighting Erza and Laxus

would be pretty crazy.

[LUCY]

Uh, you think Gray's easy?

I've got an idea, Lucy.

Let's get it on!

[LUCY]

What? No way!

That's the answer you were

expecting, weren't you?

But actually, I've been doing

some super-secret

training on my own.

[NATSU]

Huh?

[LUCY] I mean, I know that

I could never b*at you

in a serious fight,

but I'm down to spar

with you sometime.

Hold that thought.

What now?

[LUCY screams]

No, please don't!

All my tools are in there!

I can't work without

them! Please!

Sorry, old timer!

Ya shoulda come out

here with some protection

if ya didn't want bad

stuff to happen to ya!

[BANDIT A]

Yeah, geezer!

[BANDITS yelling]

[gasping]

[BANDITS groaning]

[LUCY]

Jeez!

Were you trying to

k*ll me just now?

Nope, just doin' my job, Lucy.

[LUCY] Well, just so you know,

I have gotten really strong.

[NATSU] Cool, but I'm still

not feelin' fired up.

[LUCY]

Seemed like it to me!

[HAPPY]

What?!

You told us you've

been searching

for everybody all year,

so what gives?

I gathered as much

intel as I could.

But Fiore's big,

and there are a lot of

members to track down.

So, nobody?

I think we should probably start

heading toward the southeast.

Surely we can turn up

some leads in Marguerite.

That's where Lamia

Scale's guild hall is.

Oh, the one with

Lyon and Jura?

I smell a chance to

show off my skills!

Don't forget about

that doggie-man.

Yup! Wanna guess who else

is in Lamia Scale now?

It may surprise you!

[NATSU]

Hm?

Big king 'stache face?

[HAPPY]

Ooh, do they have a fish now?

[LUCY]

You guys are ridiculous.

[CROWD chattering]

[YUKA] First, and guaranteed to

give you thrills and chills

is Lyon, a member of Lamia Scale

who always keeps his cool!

[applause]

[CHILDREN gasping]

[CROWD chattering]

Next up we have Toby,

with some impersonations!

[TOBY howls]

So, I'm gonna start out

with me when I'm crying.

[CITIZEN A]

He's impersonating himself?

[CITIZEN B]

That's not how this works!

Our apologies.

I ain't finished yet! Hey!

And now our master, Ohba, will

perform a very special dance!

[humming]

More skin?

[CROWD]

What?!

Our apologies.

I'm not finished yet,

kid! I'll spin you!

And moving right along.

The moment you've

been waiting for!

You brought us to a festival?

Lots of excitement in the air!

This is awesome.

We made it just in time!

[YUKA] Make some noise for

our guild's little angels.

Huh?

[YUKA] The Sky Sisters!

Shelia and Wendy!

[CROWD cheering]

[BOTH scream]

[YUKA] They've got a brand

new song they wrote

just for this occasion,

so put your hands together

for "Met's Love Angelican"!

They've been friends since

the Grand Magic Games,

but this is pretty new.

[SHELIA] ♪ I've got a passion

burning deep inside my heart ♪

♪ Wonder if he'll ever know ♪

♪ I am no angel,

though I look sweet ♪

♪ I've still got a

fire in my soul ♪

[BOTH] ♪ I've never cared

about fancy wings ♪

♪ My hand in yours

is all I need ♪

♪ Happy, just you and me ♪

♪ Let's love!

Let's love! Forever! ♪

♪ Wanna hold on to

these feelings-- ♪

[MEN]

Forever!

♪ In your eyes I'll

keep on gazing-- ♪

Forever!

I don't understand

why she's doing this!

They've got the entire crowd

eating out of their hands.

I don't know why

you're surprised

that she joined another

guild after Fairy Tail.

She's still gotta earn

a living, after all.

[NATSU]

No, I mean...

Wendy's not a dragon singer,

she's a Dragon Slayer!

You go, Wendy!

[LUCY]

Isn't this fun?

It's all for Lamia Scale's

Thanksgiving Festival.

You know, like how Magnolia

has its Harvest Festival?

It's a way of bringing the guild

and the townsfolk together.

And build a sense of unity.

All right, it's my

new personal goal

to get Wendy back

on the right path!

How is she on the

"wrong path," Natsu?

Hang on. If Wendy's here,

then where's Carla?

[CARLA] I thought I might

see some familiar faces

in the crowd.

If it isn't Natsu,

Lucy, and the Tom-cat.

Oh, my apologies.

Hello there, Happy.

[ALL]

Say wha--?

[OROCHI A]

Huh.

The whole stupid town's

caught up in the festival.

[OROCHI B]

Let's love! Let's love!

[OROCHI HEAD]

Silence.

Tonight, the hammer of judgment

will fall squarely

upon Lamia Scale.

Give thanks. Soon the streets

will run red with blood.

[WENDY]

Oh my gosh,

I've never been so

embarrassed in my life!

There's nothing to be

embarrassed about.

You were super cute up there

and everybody loved you!

♪ Let's love!

Let's love! Forever! ♪

♪ Forever. ♪

But why is the song

called "Met's Love"?

Don't get ticked off.

You have some visitors, Wendy.

[WENDY]

I do?

Yo.

Long time, no see!

Hey, Wendy, you remember us?

Oh, wow! I can't believe it!

I missed you guys so much!

[NATSU]

Have you gotten taller?

Sorry. I guess I'm still

kind of a little shrimp.

Glad ta hear it!

We're goin' home, okay?

Natsu, wait!

[LYON, YUKA, TOBY]

Hey!

[WENDY] You're traveling around

trying to track down everybody,

and then you're gonna

rebuild Fairy Tail?

[LUCY]

That's the idea.

But ever since the guild

disbanded last year,

nobody's even heard from master.

[LYON]

The council's been concerned.

They've been trying to pinpoint

Makarov's whereabouts

to no avail.

[NATSU]

The council?

Like those jerks care.

[HAPPY] I didn't know there

was still a council.

Since you two have been

up in the mountains,

there's probably a

lot that's happened

that you don't know about.

[YUKA] The wizard guilds

can't really function

without a proper

Magic Council in place.

So last year, the Ten

Wizard Saints decided

they would come together

and form a new one.

[TOBY sobs]

[TOBY]

And Jura left us in the dust!

[YUKA]

Stop your howling.

[TOBY whines]

Well, if it's made up of

a bunch of those types...

...it must be awesome!

Does that mean

master's a member?

[LUCY]

He was supposed to be,

but then he disappeared

without a trace.

[NATSU]

Sounds like an annoying gig.

I woulda disappeared, too!

Anyway, we'll get to him later.

So get your stuff

together, 'n let's go!

Well, uh, Natsu.

I'm a member of the

Lamia Scale guild now.

I can't just walk

away with you.

[BOTH gasp]

[NATSU]

You're kidding!

[LUCY]

Why?

I'm sorry, you guys.

[LYON] You don't have to

stay here for our sakes.

We knew from the start this

time would come someday.

[TOBY] And that's why we're

all ready to say goodbye

without making a scene!

[YUKA]

Like that?

But why can't you come with us?

[WENDY]

Because...

[CARLA]

She's clearly made up her mind.

So please don't

berate her for it.

Don't get mad.

[LUCY]

How is she human?

[HAPPY]

How is she human?

How the heck are you human?!

Oh, this? I mastered my

transformation ability.

This form both increases

my magic power

and enhances my clairvoyance.

So what do you think, Happy?

Well, I trained for a

whole year, too, ya know?

And I've come a long way.

Now I'm able to wait a little

while before I eat my fishies!

[CARLA]

How does that count as training?

This is no small decision,

Wendy. So be sure!

Oh, your kitty form

is just the cutest!

[ALL]

You're really gonna stay?

Honestly.

[sighs]

[grunting]

[HAPPY gasping]

[LUCY groaning]

[LUCY]

Uhh...

[laughing]

Stop it! You're gonna

make me wet the bed!

Hands off while I'm

in bed, got it?

[NATSU, HAPPY groan]

Don't be so hard on us.

The whole thing's

just got us in shock.

[HAPPY]

Aye.

I know what you mean by that.

Makes you wonder

if the others'll

feel the same way she does.

I ain't givin' up! No way!

Even if I gotta kidnap

her, she's comin'!

[LUCY]

Don't you dare!

[SHELIA] Hey, Wendy, about

what happened earlier...

[WENDY]

It's fine.

I promise that I'm

not gonna go anywhere!

Sherry moved out

when she got married.

That had to be tough on you.

And if I leave, that means

you're gonna be left all alone.

Well, I don't really

see it that way.

[WENDY]

Huh?

I'll still be right here

with all of my guild mates

by my side.

I mean, we're like a big

family too, you know.

So you shouldn't stick around

because you feel sorry for me.

I want you to do what

makes you happy.

[bang]

What was that? That crash?

It came from the guild!

[PEOPLE screaming]

[LYON]

Get the citizens to safety!

[TOBY howls]

[YUKA]

This way!

[NATSU]

What's goin' on?

[LYON]

Natsu!

[gasps]

The town's under att*ck!

[LYON] All of a sudden,

a horde of monsters

just appeared out of nowhere.

Like a bunch of 'em?

That's crazy!

I bet the Orochi Fin

guild is behind this!

Those guys have been

trying to take us down

for as long as I can remember!

[LUCY]

Whoa, really?

They're so obsessed with

attacking our guild,

they don't care how many

innocent people get hurt.

And since Jura isn't

here right now,

we're missing our

strongest member.

The big festival gave them

the perfect opportunity

to catch us off guard.

They're gonna pay for this.

[YUKA]

Lyon!

This is just the

first wave of them!

There's a massive

swarm of monsters

coming in from the east!

Yeah, like a hundred thousand!

That many?

We don't stand a chance

against an army of monsters.

All this for revenge.

Orochi scum!

This is gonna be a

real show, fellas.

And this is the perfect place

to watch the whole

thing go down.

[OROCHI C]

With old man Jura gone,

this will be like taking

candy from a baby.

They're going to waste all

their precious magic power

fighting my monsters.

And then we'll crush them.

[MONSTERS roaring]

It appears as though they have

a monster tamer on their side.

It does. If we can

just take him out--

With so many beasts swarming in,

that could prove impossible.

[TOBY screams]

There has to be a way.

We can just go up!

Right over their heads!

That's true.

You'd be willing to help us out?

Of course I would!

'Cause I'm fired up now!

Let's go, Happy!

Aye, aye, to the sky!

Sorry about that, Natsu!

Shelia?

Okay...

[SHELIA] Come on, Happy,

we gotta keep going!

[HAPPY]

Uh... aye?

They're attacking our guild,

so it's up to us to

save it ourselves!

[WENDY]

Mh-hm!

That little girl just

cat-napped Happy.

[LUCY chuckles nervously]

[YUKA] Oh, no! The

swarm's inside the city!

[TOBY] I've never seen

so many monsters!

We must hold them

off at all cost.

[screams]

How dare you steal Happy!

Say what?

[NATSU]

I'm comin' for ya!

Natsu!

Is he crazy?

[MONSTERS roaring]

Get outta my way!

[LUCY gasps]

[yelling]

[NATSU]

Move it!

[NATSU yelling]

[LUCY] Orochi Fin unleashed

a massive horde of monsters

on Marguerite,

Lamia Scale's hometown.

And so, the Sky Sisters,

Wendy and Shelia,

fly through the air together

to protect their guild

and the frightened townspeople.

They're going over the monsters

to strike the wizard

controlling the swarm.

Unfortunately, one of the most

powerful foes we've ever seen

is waiting for them

on the other side.

Next Time: "Because of Love."

The girls fight on bravely,

powered by the undying love that

dwells deep in their hearts.
