Natsu and the crew track the kidnappers to the looming Tower of Heaven where a demented figure from Erza's past plans to activate a devastating forbidden magic with her as the living sacrifice!

Natsu is temporarily declawed when he gets stuck in some stubborn headgear, but he uses his dome to defeat a kitty-loving baddy. It's all a game to Jellal, who brings in three twisted wizards from the Assassin's Guild.
