Sting's head leaned back so he was looking up to the sky, panting heavily. He looked back down to see Sloth laying motionless, and he breathed out in relief. The dragon slayer smiled at Emi and gave a thumbs up, hopping back over to her side.

"See? We can totally work as a team."

Emi shook her head and smiled before their attention was caught by Wrath standing in front of them. He placed his hands in a familiar gesture.

"That's...Fairy Law."

Wrath's smile twitched up into a demonic smirk. A dark purple orb formed in his hands.

"Demonic Bomb!"

The entirety of the town of rubble was engulfed in a purple fog before spontaneous explosions sounded. Emi tried to cast her Shell of Divinity around everyone, but she couldn't form that big a barrier in the short time she had. Explosions rung out from all directions, and she watched in horror as Wendy was blasted across the area. She turned around to see that Cana had fallen to the ground, and Yukino collapsed inside a crater that had been blown in when the explosion hit her. Tears started to blur Emi's vision as more and more explosions came out, harming her friends before her eyes.

"Not again. I'm not letting it happen again!"

She engulfed herself in flames again and leaped at Wrath.

"Em!"

She kicked the Sin in the stomach before bringing her other leg down and catching the top of his head, forcing him down to the ground with the force of the kick. She snapped her fingers, trying to stop the explosions, but they wouldn't stop. She gritted her teeth and her eyes turned black.

"You will not mess with my friends again. I'll make sure of it."

Wrath looked up from the ground and laughed devilishly. He stood up fully and held his hand in the air.

"Assault of Plagues."

Snakes and leeches started to rain onto the city, grabbing onto whoever was closets. They dripped with poison, and Emi could see that it took effect immediately after they were bitten. Emi used her Dispel, but they wouldn't go away.

"You see, daughter of Cain, the spell itself was the summoning. You can't cancel a spell that's already over. This is just the aftermath."

She glared at him before she took in a slow breath. She erupted in blue flames yet again, and she held her hands up in the air.

"Please god work the way I want you to," Emi quietly begged before she cast the spell. "Armageddon!"

Blue fire rained down from the sky. Emi put her full concentration into directing where the flames would go, fully well knowing that it could mean death if the blue flames hit one of her comrades. She heard the sizzling of the snakes as they burned to ash, as well as the leeches who had easily been defeated with a couple sparks. Emi quickly looked around to see that nobody had caught fire, breathing out in relief.

"Sting, do you have enough?"

He nodded and walked towards the writing on the ground. He sat down, touching the holy water that had been sprinkled over it and mumbling a couple words. The whole city started glowing a faint white as the holy water mixed with Sting's holy energy. All of the Fairy Tail and Sabertooth wizards all started glowing too. Their wounds disappeared and the poison left their systems.

"Wha--how?! When could you have possibly drawn that big of a circle?"

"Em and I took a trip here the other night to set it up. She knew she would teleport us here, so we wanted to be prepared."
