Chapter 51

Vanity is the 51st chapter of Hiro Mashima's Fairy Tail.
After their initial retreat, the Mages of Fairy Tail are in bad shape. Without their Guild Master, the guild is left with little hope and this hope slowly withers when the Phantom Lord mobile arrives and prepares to attack their guild.
==Summary==
After being incapacitated by Aria, Makarov is brought to the healing Mage, Porlyusica, deep within the forest east of Magnolia by Alzack and Bisca. After a quick examination, she concludes that Makarov's Magic power has been drained by Wind Magic and that his recovery would've been faster if they managed to collect his Magic Power. She chastises him for his recklessness, but still deeply cares for him. She then chases Bisca and Alzack away, unable to stand them being around her since she hates humans.
Meanwhile, in the guild, most of the guild members are injured after their attack on Phantom Lord. As some of the other guild members plan on their next attack, Elfman, Gray, Happy and Natsu notice Lucy's sadness. When questioned, Lucy tells the group that she's sorry, voicing out her anger over her father who orchestrated the war. She then tells them that the war may stop if she goes home but Natsu tells her that she doesn't need go. He tells her that she's better suited in the guild than in some mansion, dubbing her Lucy of Fairy Tail and tells her that the guild is her home. Hearing the words of her friends, Lucy is touched and begins to shed more tears.
Elsewhere, Cana is attempting to contact Mystogan by Magic Card but fails. Meanwhile, Mirajane is talking to Laxus by Communication Lacrima. Laxus refuses to help, saying that it doesn't concern him. Angered by Laxus, Mirajane breaks the lacrima and decides to fight as well. Cana tells her that she'll only be a burden, even though she was once an S-Class Mage.
Inside the shower room, Erza is thinking about the guild's current situation. She blames herself for not going with Makarov to confront Jose, but her thoughts are cut short by a sudden tremor. The guild members run outside and sees the Phantom Lord guild, mobile and walking towards their guild. Inside it, Jose Porla orders his men to prepare the Magical Convergent Cannon: Jupiter. Seeing this, Erza tells her guild mates to get down.
