A Cryptic Message

"Something is coming..." A young man standing on a large rock of mountaintop says to two young girls behind him who listen intently at the man's words. "Something is coming...could it be? the one who hunts us..."

He jumps off the stone, and lands perfectly on the ground, not inuring himself from the impact, despite being several feet in the air. "We can't ignore this. Let's return home and see what it is that I'm feeling...I just hope I'm wrong."

A few miles west from the location of the three young mages, a mysterious young female watches them with hateful red eyes. She holds a small paper in hand and prepares to blow it away in the wind, and although she claims to know such mages, her intentions are unknown. She begins to descend down the mountain muttering several words.

"Soon, soon the time will come. And when it does, I will kill them all!" The woman thought to herself as she unleashed several waves of magic energy, destroying the nearby environment leaving cracks and rumble in her path. As she arrived towards a dark gloomy building, she looked at her sword and said "I only need one to kill them. One is enough, but killing only one isn't." She walks towards the buildings door and opened them was warmly welcomed by a tall woman covered in a black cloak and hood, whose red eyes were the only things visible.

The young man from the mountain, accompanied by two girls had just managed to escape the falling boulders in time, and even though they were close to the base of the mountain many of their passage ways had either been destroyed or blocked by the small avalanche caused by the young unknown mage.

"Eagle, what was that?" cries out the red-haired mage with a worried expression. "I don't know Kiyoko, but this wasn't any ordinary avalanche. Someone caused it. But who would be all the way out here and cause a avalanche, while there is clearly nothing around for miles?" Eagle says in a state of confusion. "Who knows, but I suggest we get out of here. It's not safe around here. Master Makarov should be waiting for us." Rika says with anticipation. Eagle and Kiyoko agree, and deciding that there is no other way down the mountain, the three mages unsheathe their bladed weapons and shatter down the walls of massive rocks until they reach the bottom.

With nothing but Eagle's warning on something dangerous headed their way, the three mages rushed on to Magnolia and arrived at the Fairy Tail Guild, after previously having been away for almost a month, due to their several missions. Upon arrival, many of their guild mates welcomed them home, and mentioned their victory at the Grand Magic Games. While they were happy, the three were still unsettled until Makarov appeared with a note, that carried the message Eagle had feared. The message said"To the Dragoons. Your day of reckoning is upon us. The day of your deaths has been set into motion, and it is one you will not be able to escape. I care not for your pathetic guild. You are the one who matters most, and we will not stop until you are dead". Eagle stares viciously at the note and close his hand in a fist while holding it, only to freeze and shatter the paper. With an angry look, he tells his sister to prepare themselves, for Akuma and Hatsumi had finally returned.
