Part III: Alola Fairy Tail!

Prologue

"Alright, let's hope I can make this the last night of testing…"

At the far east side of Magnolia, a man familiar to the Fairy Tail guild was currently finishing a very important personal project under the radiant light of the Fioren moon.

We find him inside his industrious basement after finishing the lasting touches on a very impressive piece of magical equipment, one that looks ready to produce an intense force of magical power.

"Eh…" He scratched his head as he unplugged one final cord. "Maybe this time I'll just see if the game powers on without electricity, then I can just head to bed early..."

While he is more familiar with lacrima powered video gaming than it seems, businessman Nigel Thomas has never developed his own product by himself, without the help of his company or friends to test it out.

Nigel stepped back and wiped his brow clean of sweat as he looked his newly updated device over. He showed off a smug grin and grabbed his written notes lying beside him on an open desk.

"Let's see…the game powered on fine earlier, but those little additions I implemented didn't show up when I looked around inside. I think I just need to…" Nigel grabbed his remote keyboard and switched the power on to his impressive device. Like the previous games before, this one was controlled by a standard keyboard, but also like the past games of this notable series, his creation had other hidden abilities for the player to enjoy as well.

"Man if this works…agh, I can't even think of how awesome it would be! This could be the biggest Pokémon game yet!" His company had earned worldwide success with the release of his previous Pokémon games thanks to the exclusive virtual reality experience that it offered the player and their friends. In two back-to-back instalments, the lead player was sucked into the game for the story mode, and expected to play as the very trainer inside a virtual Pokémon world. If the player also had friends with them, they could join in as the player's Pokémon team, which really made things exciting for a human audience to enjoy.

Now, Nigel decided to revamp the entire virtual reality system, by developing this platform on a device created and powered by 100% lacrima. It was currently being powered with minimal electricity, but once Nigel removed the cords, it would hopefully stay powered on through just its magical lacrima capabilities. In a way, it was actually less of a virtual world, and almost…real.

"Okay…fingers crossed?" The half-tired and near-crazed businessman readied himself for the moment of a life time as he powered on the game, and waited for the menu to come forth. However, as the lights flashed on, a black and purple crack took his computer screen by surprise, and all of a sudden, his large industrial-sized house began shaking above.

"Yikes!" He yelled out as he threw away the keyboard and ran halfway up his steps. His house sat on a very tall hill to the eastern side of Magnolia, so if it really started shaking that much, the rest of the village would surely know. That being said, he ran right back downstairs to make sure the source of the rumble was not about to blow up right in his face, and level his mansion altogether.

However, as his eyes landed back on the computer device, they grew ten times their average size as a giant spiral column of purple and white light hovered in the center of his basement floor. It looked rather ominous, and almost like a portal of sorts worthy of entry.

Nigel shut his gaping mouth and shook his head with shock and awe. "I don't believe it…I actually created a direct portal to the virtual world? No electricity at all! All lacrima, all virtual…"

Normally, his games required a transfer box, or headset, or flatbed of sorts to transport the person's body and mind into the games, but this system appeared to create its very own direct portal for entering the game.

Nigel's eyes quickly turned from their regular blue into a wondrous shade of emerald green as two great big dollar signs took their place. He laughed and raised up a fist in celebration. "Hehe! I'm gonna make an even bigger fortune on this thing!"

He stopped laughing and reminded himself that he already owned a fortune, and quickly shook his head again to clear out the crazy. "Right, ahehe, well I better jump in and see if it actually works…"

Then, Nigel finished writing off a last-minute note, and left his journal log sitting right on the desk. Finally, the brown-haired wizard readied his mind as he stepped forth and officially tested his new device by entering the virtual world.

~The Next Day~

"NGH! Natsu, stop eating so fast! You're really going to hurt yourself!"

"AG-RGH!"

Lucy stood behind Natsu as they both occupied a table inside the Fairy Tail guild hall. She had both arms under his chest, and pulled up several times to de-lodge a trapped piece of food that was blocking his airway.

"Errrg! ALMOST!" This was the fifth time that day Lucy had to do this. Natsu was wolfing down everything in his path since they returned home from a mission that morning, and every bite meant that much more chaos for her and the others in the guild.

"Lucy! Don't hurt the poor guy!" Wendy plugged her ears and looked away as Lucy's Heimlich maneuver was making Natsu produce horrible sounds, and with every heave of her arms, the dragon slayer's face was growing bluer and bluer by the second.

"I'm not trying to!" Lucy pleaded with her blue haired friend at the other end of the bench while she stuck one of her boots up on the bench top itself, and tried to apply more force to her choking friend's chest.

Meanwhile the table in front of them started producing a slight bit of laughter from some annoyed acquaintances.

"Geeze, just let him choke on it, Lucy. He needs to learn a lesson one way or another." Gray rolled his eyes as he never bothered turning around, and continued eating his own late day meal at a civil pace.

"Yea." Gajeel agreed as he sat with Gray's table. "And if we're lucky, maybe this one will finish him off once and for all…"

"Agh…WHAT'S…UGH…THAT…SUPPOSED…TO…!?" Natsu tried having an enraged conversation with Gray and Gajeel between his choking throat and Lucy's tugs, but he could barely get anything to come out as she tried harder and harder to save his life.

Juvia sat right next to Gray as she held an awkward smile and patted him softly on the back. "Ahaha…what my darling Gray is trying to say is that you little game with Natsu is starting to distract him from our dinner date."

"No…I'm not trying to say that…like at all." Gray rolled his eyes as he kept his back facing Natsu and his head away from Juvia. "I'm saying Natsu's annoying me, and he needs to stop it."

Meanwhile, Happy started giggling too at the entire situation as he sat down with Wendy and Carla. "Geeze Lucy, you're sure getting close to Natsu!"

The blonde wizard now had both legs up on the bench and a face full of red energy. "HAPPY! UGH, WHEN I'M THROUGH SAVING THIS IDIOT'S LIFE I'LL…"

"Tom Cat, why must you try to make a joke with every situation?" Carla shook her head with a disapproving expression as she continued nibbling on a meal of her own. She then dabbed her face with a tissue. "That being said, Lucy, I'm starting to wonder if your CPR is doing more harm to the poor boy then it is good."

"Agreed. " Panther Lilly had a smug grin covering his face as he stood beside Gajeel's plate of food. "The Salamander looks like he's struggling with every breathe he takes even after the help."

"Oh trust me!" Lucy struggled with their replies. "At this point, I'm not trying to make it easy on him!" Natsu continued choking no matter how hard Lucy pulled, but just then…

"BLAHHHH!" Natsu yelled out with relief as Lucy's final heave released the large gob of food, and launched it right past Gray's head into the other table's area.

Some pieces of food scuffed the side of Gray's face, which left the now survived Natsu chuckling with laughter. "Bahaha! Nice aim Lucy! Ya almost hit the pervert right in the back of the head!"

"Yea…?" Lucy's face started losing its color as she shrunk down with fear. "I'm starting to wish that I did…"

Natsu sat up and realized Gray and everyone else were now miles away from the table, which revealed the last person sitting across from him. This person also got a face full of food as it shot out of Natsu's mouth, and left her in a fitting moment of rage and anger.

However, Natsu quickly recognized Erza Scarlet's face the moment the food burned right off her cheeks, and two fiery red eyes locked onto her target. He squealed from fear and stood behind Lucy, but it was too late to calm the already infuriated storm.

"YOU IDIOT!" Erza yelled with swords in hand. "NEXT TIME I'LL ORDER HER TO LET YOU CHOKE TO DEATH!" She smacked him upside the head, and kicked him out the guild hall doors, all while Happy and Lucy ran after him in a bout of confusion.

"Natsu!" Lucy yelled as the Salamander shot out like a torpedo through the main guild doors, and Happy sighed and slowly followed behind.

"Well." The cat shrugged. "At least he'll probably lose his appetite now." They finally made it outside to find Natsu tumbling into the cobble streets, and a great big lump and cloud of grey smoke rising from his forehead.

Lucy knelt down and put a hand behind his head as she face-palmed in embarrassment. "Natsu, you probably just need to go home…"

"Yea…cough…you're right." His eyes were now spinning like cork screws. "Just drop me off in your bed and I'll be out for an afternoon nap."

"I NEVER SAID GO HOME TO MY HOUSE!?" Lucy raised a fist and prepared to deck him a second time, but just then she looked up and saw Cana and Levy coming towards the guild from the east. They seemed to be locked in a peculiar conversation, which left both Lucy and Happy fixed in awe.

"Hey guys! What's with the serious expressions?" Happy blurted out and waited for a response.

Levy turned to speak first. "Well, it's actually about Nigel. We went to go see him, but…"

"But what?" Lucy stood with a curious look on her face. "Is he okay?"

"Well, we really don't know." Cana pulled out a silver flask and shook her head. "He wasn't even there."

"What?" Lucy stepped back, and even Happy and Natsu looked concerned once they heard the news as well. She needed to hear more. "Is he supposed to be in town, or…?"

Cana nodded, and raised an eyebrow as she nonchalantly passed Lucy and the others to walk into the guild hall. "Actually, he's supposed to be at his house working on a new game, but now, he's totally gone."

Levy nodded and followed as she tried to finish up the thought. "Yea, I wonder what could have happened this time…"

Now, Lucy and her two usual friends were inside her apartment as the day went into the late afternoon. She was trying to gather up bandage supplies from her bathroom, but stumbled out the door into the living room area as she nearly dropped it all on the floor.

"Ugh! This isn't a nurse's office, ya know?! I'm not even sure why you two followed me home."

"Awe come on Lucy!" Happy sat right beside Natsu as the injured Fire Dragon wizard lied down on her bed. "You said you'd help fix Natsu up good as new!"

His lump looked even more sore than before, and the little blue cat had just finished removing the earlier set of bandages from Natsu's wounded head.

Lucy sighed and sat down with them as she started prepping the second set. "Yea, okay. I'll stay quiet." She noticed Natsu's head wound looked like it probably did hurt, and all the sympathy for her best friend kept her from getting any angrier.

Not to mention the peculiar news about Nigel she heard earlier that day. She remembered him talking with the Master and the others about a new video game he was trying to create on his own, and this one was supposed to be even better than the first two.

That being said, in the eyes of Lucy Heartfilia, anything was better than those death trap Pokémon games. The first one locked her and her friends away without giving them a clear way out, and the second one almost wiped Natsu and others clean out of existence after it got hacked by rogue employees.

Still, this whole situation left her thinking. "Hey guys, do either of you remember seeing Nigel before we left town for our mission the other day? I'm trying to think of the last time he stopped off at the guild hall."

"Oh yea…" Happy started scratching his chin. "…come to think of it, I don't remember seeing him in a really long time! He must have been hard at work on those new Pokémon games!"

"Hehe, no kidding!" Natsu punched his two fists together and grinned. "He told me I'd be the first one to test them out, and he even said he'd give me a battle once he figured out the arena mode."

"Natsu, I doubt you even remember how to play." Lucy shook her head and cut off a piece of bandage wrap. "I just don't see what the big deal about those games are, but…I really hope he's okay."

"Yea, me too." Happy thought with a long pause. "Ya think he got sucked into the game like last time?"

"I dunno, maybe?" Lucy took that into consideration, but just then her expression changed as she could feel Natsu's core body temperature rising faster and faster.

"Oh no…whaaAT NOW!?"

"HAHA! COME ON! LET'S GO FIND OUT!" Natsu left room for no more waiting around as he grabbed Lucy by the arm and ran out the front door. From there Happy laughed and flew behind him as they all three ran right for the east side of town.
