01x05 - A Bitter Choice

[bunniefuu]

Run while you can.

Before the one within me

comes up again!

What's going on?!

You want to get in my way, Touka?

Don't hurt people more than this,

White Wizard!

I've got you!

Gajeel, use iron bindings, now!

I happened to be passing by.

He looked like he was in danger,

so I shrank him.

You are

It's been a while, Lucy.

Thank you for taking good care of me.

But a true knight wouldn't attack

a sleeping opponent.

I just enlarged a rock from

the sea bottom.

It's time for our counterattack!

Magic that passes through my eyes

has its effect reduced by half.

An obedient pet is nice,

but this is good too!

I told you, there's nothing I can't cut.

No matter what you can cut,

you won't be able to cut our bonds.

Armor Dragon's Steel-Fist Strike!

Fire Dragon's Iron Punch!

Natsu!

The Armor Dragon's scales can never be-

No matter how tough your armor is,

can it take my heat?

Get burned!

Fire Dragon King's Purgatory!

I will never fall into despair

in this world

Our real bond will open up

a path for tomorrow

At night, I even forget to notice

The continuation of dreams

I can't see

And the sounds of anxiety

that everyone holds

Let's accept it all

and make it come true

The time has passed at

an impossible speed

While I recall it,

the "present" is slipping away

I will never fall into despair

in this world

Our real bond will open up

a path for tomorrow

If you hold onto hope

after coming this far

I'll seek the meaning of

the promises we exchanged

For the "Story" of the future

(A Bitter Choice)

Natsu, uh, you burned my clothes.

Open! Door to the Twins' Palace!

Gemini!

They're spirit clothes!

Don't make Wendy wear anything

too weird.

Lucy! Carla!

We're here, too!

Yeah!

Gray!

I can't call myself a member of Fairy Tail

if I accepted defeat.

Let me handle this guy.

Madmole.

I can't believe he's still standing

after getting hit with Natsu's attack.

What is this heat?

It's Natsu's flame.

The ship

Even my clothes are melting.

Why don't your clothes melt?

This is the Fire Empress' Armor.

It has really amazing heat resistance.

I like this flame.

Let us eat it!

You who eat dragons!

Now it's Natsu's turn to eat you!

Fire Empress' Soaring Fire Blade!

Erza!

Kiria

Put me down! Damn it!

I'm surprised by your strength.

I'll cut you all into pieces!

Kiria, calm down, cha.

Stay away from the Water Dragon God!

We'll handle him somehow.

Somehow?

You mean to k*ll him, right?

How are you different from us

who want to consume him?

We won't k*ll him.

We're gonna show you

how we handle it.

Interesting.

What we want is not that

powerless Water Dragon God,

but the White Wizard who is said

to have taken his power.

As long as there are dragons,

we will consume.

We can't be stopped by the likes of you.

Huh? But it seems that two of

the three can't fight anymore.

What did you say?!

Indeed, we are at a disadvantage here.

That's because there are only

three of us here.

There are more of you?

Didn't I say it back then, cha?

We are a guild of Dragon Eaters.

We have other members.

We will retreat for today.

If you continue to pursue dragons,

then we will definitely meet again.

On that day

You will learn the true fear of Diabolos.

A guild of Dragon Eaters.

They forgot their ship.

Bunch of fools, huh?

What's going on?

The ship is turning to ashes?

So it was made of ashes.

I didn't think he could use

Ash Make Magic as well.

There's no way this is Molding Magic!

I've never seen such

a delicate Molding Magic.

What do we do next?

First, we should return to

Uncle Water Dragon God's place.

Did he look like an uncle to you?

But

Go out from here now!

It's fine!

We chased them off, and we didn't want

to k*ll the Water Dragon God anyway.

Wow, so optimistic.

Lord Water Dragon God!

My lord, you shouldn't get up yet.

What's going on?

Run!

This is definitely overloaded.

Gray, can't you make a ship

with your ice?

I can, but as you know,

it'd be nothing but a sculpture.

I guess, it wouldn't be able to move.

Hey, wouldn't it be better

if we fly, right?

You're right.

Why did we get into the boat

in the first place?

What's wrong?

Ermina looks weird.

Is that smoke?

Did something happen?

Let's go, Happy!

Aye, sir!

Carla!

Okay!

We'd better hurry, too.

Yeah!

No way!

Sharkette, are you safe?

Kashima!

Sharkette!

Aren't you

What happened here?

You see

A dragon?

What's going on?

Could that be

The Water Dragon God?

He's bigger than Igneel.

So this is the dragon god?

We have to evacuate everyone

in this city!

No way!

Just do it!

But why would he become like that?

Didn't he say his power

had been stolen?

It's my fault.

The Water Dragon God became

like this because of me.

Karameel?

What do you mean?

The one who let the White Wizard steal

the Water Dragon God's power was me.

Ermina's high tide time is increasing.

I believe anyone wouldn't mind that.

The cityfolks started to forget

whether they were human or fish.

That's not a good thing.

I want them to be able to

live normal lives.

My power is becoming

more difficult to control.

The next time Elefseria sends

wizards after me,

perhaps I should give them

this life of mine.

That's absurd!

Your death won't solve anything!

But this power may eventually

attack you, too.

I don't care.

This life was saved by you

to begin with.

If I were to take it, there would have

been no point in rescuing you.

It would make me lose

my purpose in life.

That was when I heard rumors

about the White Magic Cult.

They possess the power to erase powerful

magic and turn everything to "white".

I asked them to take

the Water Dragon God's power.

If his magical energy were gone,

the city would return to normal.

I believed that he himself would

become a normal person too.

Very well.

Your wish has been heard.

However

I was wrong.

As you see,

the city didn't return to normal.

And his power has only gotten

more uncontrollable.

But why?

Does that mean the White Wizard

couldn't take his power?

No, she took his power.

But it wasn't his magical energy.

What she took from him was

the power to control himself.

She can reduce others' magic to nothing or

increase it to the maximum she wants.

You're awake, huh?

Which Touka are you now?

It's me.

Not the White Wizard one.

It's time for you to tell us the truth.

And the reason why you lied to us.

What's the real reason

you joined Fairy Tail?

The White Wizard said she wanted to erase

powerful magic concentrated in one place.

How about you?

I

It's true that I wanted to meet Sir Natsu.

But there's one more reason.

I heard you have a member who

excels in enchantment here.

Huh?

You mean Wendy?

Yes.

I thought that maybe she could cast

the separation enchantment.

And why is that?

My body is possessed by

the White Wizard.

I thought separation enchantment

could chase her out from me.

So I

Don't say unnecessary things, Touka.

The White Wizard?

Touka may not know, but that

High Enchanter is near my servant.

Take care of them, Water Dragon God.

Now it's time for all of you

to be dyed white.

Become my servants here and now.

You mean, the White Wizard is remotely

controlling the Water Dragon God?

This happened because of me.

Please

Please k*ll the Water Dragon God

and end his suffering.

With your powers as the Dragon Slayers.

Before I knew it,

I had learned to coexist.

I beg of you.

Let him

rest in peace.

No, you have to.

Don't be rude to them again.

I'm going to get my power back

and return this city to normal.

I can't die until then.

But he's a good guy.

All the more reason,

I can't bear to see him hurt anyone.

You came here to defeat him,

didn't you?!

First, you relied on the White Wizard,

and now, you're asking us.

How very convenient for you, huh?

Hey, Natsu!

Stop it.

That's because I'm not a wizard!

If I could use magic-

That's enough.

This is no time to argue.

We have to do something.

Even if you say that

But he's a good guy.

We all know that.

But you said it yourself

if he dares to hurt our friends

Then I will definitely slay them.

If this goes on,

we and the people here

will be in danger.

We have to do it.

Even if it's bitter.

That's why I've been waiting for

those who could k*ll me.

Please

Let's go!

Yeah!

I'll enchant Erza, Lucy, and Gray

with dragon-slaying attributes!

Dragon Slayer Seal!

With this, our magic can

be effective against a dragon.

Fire Dragon King's Demolishing Strike!

Ice Cannon!

Requip! Heaven's Wheel Armor!

Heaven's Wheel: Blumenblatt!

Star Dress!

Open! The door of The Archer!

Sagittarius!

Hello there!

Star Shot!

Sky Dragon's Roar!

He dove into the sea.

What is this sound?

The sea is rising in the sky?

What's going on?

The sea here is completely dry.

So this is a dragon god?

And with this,

one "black" has disappeared.

Fairy Tail is now dyed in "white".

You and I are holding

the ends of the same rope

Pulling with a strong force

Creating a tense connection,

taut feeling

We've always helped each other out

no matter when

But leaning on each other

too much isn't good

It's time to let go

For both of us

Even if we part ways here

Our bond will never break,

it's an invisible belief

From this point on,

that will be something eternal

It's our story

O friend, this is where

we say goodbye

We can't keep supporting

each other forever

O friend, as if competing

against each other

We grow stronger by

standing on our own
