From Pegasus to Fairies is the one hundredth and fifty-seventh chapter of Hiro Mashima's Fairy Tail.

Full Summary
Wendy finally finds Jellal and Erza, who have just emerged victorious from their battle against Midnight, the final Oracion Seis General. Wendy runs up to Jellal, only to find that he doesn't remember her. Initially saddened, she later cheers up after Erza explains to her that Jellal's memories are still jumbled and that he can't remember anyone. Wendy then asks Jellal if he knows how to stop Nirvana, but Jellal tells her that a Self Destruct Magic Circle will no longer work, and that he doesn't know of any other method to stop it. Just then Nirvana (which has arrived in front of Caitshelter) begins charging up to fire at Wendy's guild. However just as Cait Shelter and it's inhabitants are about to be obliterated, a blast of Magic hits one of Nirvana's legs, throwing it off balance and making it miss the guild.

The blast is revealed to have been from the Blue Pegasus Magical Aerial Bomber - Christina. Aboard is Lyon, Ren, Eve, Sherry and Hibiki. Hibiki then uses his telepathy to tell Erza and co. that Christina is up and running thanks to a combined effort of all on board (Lyon using his creation Magic to replace the destroyed wing, Sherry and Ren using their respective Doll and Air Magic to keep Christina flying and Eve using his snow Magic to drop the bombs aboard Christina). Hibiki goes onto explain that after searching through Archive, he has finally managed to figure out how to stop Nirvana - The group must simulatneously destroy 6 Lacrima located at the base of Nirvana's main body, which channel the Magical energy that it's 6 legs absorb from the Earth into power. He also cautions that unless the Lacrima are destroyed simultaneously, the other Lacrima will regenerate any one that is destroyed.

Hibiki downloads an app to coordinate their timings in destroying the Lacrima. Erza and co. are shocked to learn that they only have 20 minutes to do so before Nirvana fire's again. Suddenly, Zero uses his power to "jack" (hi-jack) Hibiki's telepathy, initially complementing the Light team on coming so far and then taunting them saying that he (Zero) is in front of one of the 6 lacrima, therefore making simultaneously destroying them impossible (as he insinuates that none of the Light team can defeat him). He then brags that he has already taken down 4 of their comrades (Natsu, Gray, Lucy and Happy). Soon after, Zero terminates his connection.

Soon after that Lyon, Ren and Sherry run out of Magical Power and Christina begins losing altitude. Using the last of Hibiki's Telepathy, Lyon, Sherry, Erza, Charles and Wendy plead with and inspire Natsu, Gray, Lucy and Happy to get up. Natsu, Gray, Lucy and Happy slowly begin to rise, despite their injuries...
