"…I'm sorry, can you repeat that Master Bob? Ichiya?"

A young woman, around twenty-four, stared in complete confusion at her guild master and fellow member. "You…want me to hide in a full bunny suit…during the Grand Magic Games?"

This woman is Freya Icewing, an S-Class wizard of Blue Pegasus. She had dark violet hair she kept in a loose waterfall braid and obsidian blue eyes along with fair skin. Her outfit consisted of a long white dress with slits on both sides, and the long sleeves were tucked into a pair of grey gloves trimmed with grey fur. Her legs were clad with black breeches and boots also trimmed in black fur, and hanging over her hips was a dark brown belt with a pouch. Hugging her waist was a laced up grey vest with grey fur lining the collar and shoulders.

"Now, I know this sounds strange Freya and you are free to turn it down if it makes you uncomfortable," Master Bob started with a kind smile. "Ichiya came up with this idea to sort of spice things up at the games." Freya visibly relaxed though still a bit confused. "It's not common knowledge you are a dragon-slayer. Many outside the guild think you are just a regular ice wizard, but we know that's not the truth."

Ah, she was starting to get it now. She smiled, and leaned back into her chair. Sabertooth and Fairy Tail have their dragon-slayers, so it was only fair Blue Pegasus got to show off their own. "So me hiding in the suit will lead to a big reveal?" She asked and her smile broadened seeing them nod. Ichiya struck a pose, infinite sparkles coming out of nowhere.

"Correct. The suit I designed myself, so the suit will disguise your scent just in case." He looked around the guild which was mostly empty due to how late it was. They asked her to stay after just for this chat. "Unfortunately, we will keep this a secret from everyone else here too just to make sure nothing gets out. Which means we'll just have to say you went on a job."

Freya frowned. "Lulu and Lia won't be so happy about that."

Master Bob waved his hand in a reassuring manner. "Don't worry, just imagine how pleasantly surprised they'll be when we do the big reveal in the games!" He would also make sure the two wouldn't be too upset. While they weren't S-Class, they always went on jobs with Freya. Lulu was the ice dragon-slayer's Exceed partner, while Lia was her 'protégé' as some liked to phrase it despite their magic being quite different.

He could see her thinking about it, her dark eyes narrowed whilst deep in thought. Then, the corners of her lips turn upwards in a smile. "I'm in. This sounds like it'll be fun!" Freya usually had a serene disposition but the prospect of being able to compete with other dragon-slayers excited her. It was like an old urge was surfacing and she was letting it. It appeared to be her dragon side. The thing was, she never competed in the Grand Magic Games until now. She just didn't think much of it. However with the core members of Fairy Tail back (meaning the return of several dragon-slayers) she found herself invested in the games this year.

At least she had something to look forward to.


In Freya and Lia's apartment

"Really?! A job right before we're due to leave for Crocus?" Lia pouted, falling backwards onto the futon in frustration. This was Emilia Fairway, or just Lia for short. The seventeen year old was Freya's roommate and best friend (well, besides the Exceed). Usually, they would go to the games and watch them together. Her outfit consisted of a loose but comfy mustard yellow sweater, a black denim skirt, and brown heeled boots. A cream colored button up shirt peeked out from the bottom and neckline of the sweater. Her Blue Pegasus guild mark, done in orange, was on her left thigh. Her dark mahogany hair (occasionally Freya liked to shout MAHOGANY in order to get Lia's attention) was medium length and messy, paired with a pair of gold colored eyes.

Freya shook her head, plopping onto a bean bag chair. "I know, it's annoying but I can't turn down Master Bob. He says it needs a S-Class wizard, and with Ichiya busy with the games I'm the other option." Lying wasn't something she liked doing, but Lia was pretty forgiving. Besides it wasn't like she was lying about something huge.

Lulu gave a sniff, rubbing her large eyes with her paws. She had yellow fur that was a little spiky around her ears and tail with a large light brown spot on her right eye. Currently she was wearing a lilac colored rain coat with slits in the hood to accommodate her ears, which were a little large for an Exceed. "Why can't I come with you Freya? I go wherever you go!" She cried, collapsing on the floor. Lulu had a penchant for being theatric.

The ice dragon-slayer gave a sigh and scooped up her dear friend, cradling her in her arms. "It's dangerous, and I don't want to risk you." She gently brought Lulu in for a hug. "Don't worry, Lia will be here with you." She assured, letting the cat cry it out into her chest. "…besides there will be other exceeds in Crocus, don't you want to meet them?"

"No! I'll look stupid, a cat without her dragon-slayer!" Lulu whimpered. "And Lia is probably going to go make out with her boyfriend-"

"OH COME ON! I wouldn't ditch you Lulu!" Lia protested, sitting up though with a pink blush on her cheeks. "And I don't make out with- Okay well that's a lie, but NOT IN PUBLIC!" Freya started laughing at her expense, making Lia groan and bury her face in her hands. She and her boyfriend were both private and quiet people, so of course they didn't really show excessive PDA. It didn't mean though that people didn't tease her for it. The day Blue Pegasus found out their shy plant mage got a boyfriend was the day Lia wanted to crawl into a hole.

Especially when they found out he was from Sabertooth.

After the laughter died down, Freya stood up and sat next to Lia on the edge of the futon. "I'm sorry, I know this is an inconvenience but-" She was cut off by Lia who shook her head.

"Freya, I'm not mad. If you have a job to do, I'm not going to hold you back for it. I'll look after Lulu no problem!" Lia offered a warm supportive smile. "…though you are definitely buying me lemon cakes when you get back." She joked. Lia had a huge thing for lemon cakes, so it was basically always the best thing to bribe her with. Freya chuckled and ruffled her hair.

"Okay, I'll treat you to tea and lemon cakes when I get back."

"Yay!"

Suddenly it was like Lulu did a full 180, for she jumped around in Freya's arms. "Cake?! I heard cake!" It seems that she also liked sweets (which was funny, considering Freya didn't like sweets very much) enough to revive her from her dramatic crying. The two girls looked at each, then to Lulu, and then back to each other. Then they started laughing.


Arriving at Crocus

"Wow, I've been here before and yet still I'm amazed." Lia sighed, looking around at the large bustling city. It was flourishing with even more activity than usual due to the games starting. Lulu was currently following her around, though the cat kept looking around. With all the different wizards from other guilds here, she was nervous some would try to start trouble with Lia even though she could take care of herself.

Lia's magic was a Lost Magic called Black Garden. It was a strong variant of Plant magic, but if the user didn't take care to fully understand botany the magic could do a lot of harm to the user. Therefore, Lia developed an immunity to most plant-based poisons and kept even spare antidotes on hand. She never took the potential dangers of her magic lightly. In all honesty, she really wanted to enter the games. She really did. Maybe I can be a reserve team member…

She stopped by a little gift shop, and promptly squeaked at the sight of a cute keychain by the windows. It was a small chibi ninja, and immediately she thought of her boyfriend. "Aw, I hope he's competing in the games! Then again, certain guys in his guild like to hog the spotlight." She pouted, but was about to go and purchase the keychain until someone crashed into her. She gave a shriek and fell onto her back harshly, wincing as Lulu panicked.

"Meanies! You hurt Lia!"

A small groan came from the guy on top of her, and Lia opened her eyes to see a punch of pink spiky hair obscuring her sight. In her peripheral vision she spotted Lulu tugging on a white scarf with a scale like pattern. Wait a minute. Pink spiky hair, white scaly scarf? Is this- The guy looked up, and she was met with wide onyx eyes.

"You're-"

"NATSU!" The boy immediately winced and all Lia saw was an armored hand grab the back of his shirt, and haul him off the girl. "You can't just run off, and you need to watch where you're going!" A scarlet haired woman scolded and it took Lia less than five seconds to recognize her. Erza Scarlet, or better known as Titania, Queen of the Fairies. Erza looked down and saw her, and immediately shook Natsu around. "Now, help her up! You knocked her down, it's only fair you help her up."

She normally would have protested and said she was used to being tackled (though usually it was a tackle hug), but Natsu looked frankly quite terrified of the armored maiden, so he quickly offered his hand. Lia took it, and he pulled her up with ease. "Sorry about that." He said sheepishly, and she only giggled and waved her hands to put him at ease.

"Oh, don't worry-"

"You better be sorry! What if there were invisible spikes and Lia fell on them? Or worse, what if the floor opened up and decided to eat her seeing she was utterly helpless on the street?!" Lulu ran in circles, panicking again and getting ready to start bawling her eyes out.

They were all quiet, until a blonde Lia recognized as Lucy Heartfilia spoke up. "And I thought Juvia had an active imagination…w-wait that's an exceed!" Lucy gasped, before her group turned to look at Lia in surprise. "Are you a dragon-slayer?"

Lia quickly shook her head. "No, but my partner is. She couldn't make it to Crocus, she's on a very important job right now for Master Bob. So I'm looking after Lulu until she returns!" She explained and that's when Erza noted her guild mark. Lia in turn noted the blue cat, and smiled. She looked down at Lulu but sweat-dropped seeing the yellow cat still running in circles frantically.

"What kind of dragon-slayer is she?" Natsu asked interested. Lia quickly scooped up Lulu and held her in an attempt to soothe her.

"She's the ice dragon-slayer, taught by Frosteria the ice dragon. She went missing fourteen years ago, so Freya doesn't know where she is." Lia sighed as Lulu began to calm down, and simply kicked her little feet idly while looking up at Natsu.

"You're kidding. Our dragon-slayers' dragons went missing sev- well fourteen years ago too." Lucy sighed, shaking her head. Natsu looked just as confused. "Well anyways, you're from Blue Pegasus right?"

Lia nodded, beaming with the pride at the mention of her guild. "Yep, and I know you're from Fairy Tail! I'm really happy for you guys, your guild must be so happy to have you guys back." Lia said before blushing slightly. She wasn't going to lie, she had been a fan of some of the members. Freya…not so much. They're reckless and always causing meaningless destruction on their jobs. Freya once said seven years ago before they went missing.

"Aw, thanks. Are you competing in the games?" Lucy asked again, and the group started walking with Lia and Lulu joining in. She'll just have to come back for the keychain later.

She shook her head with a pout. "No, Ichiya and the Trimen are…and some guy in a bunny suit. Ichiya and Master won't tell anyone who it is." That was weird, Master Bob announcing the team only to have someone dressed in a cartoony blue bunny suit pop up, and pose along with the Trimen. "I wanted to join in though, it's been awhile since I've had friendly spars and fights." Beating up bandits and giant spiders was not what she wanted.

(Cue flashbacks to a job where she had to take care of twenty giant spiders…BY HERSELF!)

Natsu seemed to take this in, before grinning widely and slinging an arm around Lia. "Hey, how about we fight then?"

"NATSU!"

"You don't just tackle a girl, apologize, and then try to fight her!" (Gray was so used to general Fairy Tail weirdness that the strange sentence didn't faze him)

The fire dragon-slayer began arguing with Gray, making Erza sigh and Lucy groan loudly. Lia looked at them and started laughing. "Aw, I think that's cute!" Lucy stared at her like she had two heads. "I'd love to fight, just let me know when!" Lia said with a kind smile and closed eyes.

"Oh come on, just when I thought you were normal!" Lucy cried in the background. Erza chuckled as Natsu looked at the Blue Pegasus mage in surprise, with the slightest hint of pink in his cheeks. Usually girls that weren't Fairy Tail declined immediately to the prospect of a fight with him.

He got out of his surprised state quickly and gave a huge grin. "Okay, let's do it-"

"It's Sabertooth!" A few guys ran past them, eager to see the commotion starting up not so far away. Lia gasped and wondered if she should check it out.


Freya already hated this damn bunny suit. It was quite well made so she wouldn't get hot and stuffy inside it. Ichiya's perfume on it disguised her scent well enough. Yet she hated being clad in only a sports bra and tight fitting shorts as to make her more comfy inside the suit.

To make matters worse, she couldn't complain to anyone. Why did I agree to this? She thought with a groan. Then, she heard loud shouting and the sounds of fighting. She perked up, before running all the way to the source. A large crowd had formed a circle around someone, or according to her nose, more than one person. "It's Sabertooth's Twin Dragons, Sting and Rogue!"

Oh yeah, that's why I agreed to this!

Freya pushed her way through the crowd to observe better. She got through due to her strength, and also bewilderment of the people around her at the giant blue bunny walking through.

In her peripheral vision, she saw Lia and Lulu making their way through the crowd. To her astonishment, Fairy Tail members were right behind her. Why the fairies Lia? Why couldn't you make friends with the guys from Quarto Cerberus? Or even Mermaid Heel? Freya mentally complained. She looked at them with some distaste. She had walked through some towns and neighborhoods that suffered from Team Natsu's out of hand battles years ago. Destruction of several homes and shops. Sure the cost of the damages came out of their reward, but money couldn't replace everything.

The face of an older man flashed through her mind, and her hands went into tight fists.

Though she did feel bad for Fairy Tail losing their core members seven years ago, that didn't change her mind about them. They were reckless, and didn't feel bad about destroying property that wasn't theirs. If they did, then they wouldn't continuously destroy on their jobs!

Apparently she was so deep into her thoughts it took Natsu's loud angry voice to break her out of her trance. Wait…what happened?

"You killed your own parents?!" Natsu snapped, which made Freya freeze and look over at the twins. They…killed their dragons? Suddenly she felt her blood turn to ice but not due to horror. It was due to anger. A small snarl started to build up but she quickly noticed the gathering frost at her feet and powered down. She couldn't give herself away yet.

"I'll see you later Salamander, in the games." Sting Eucliffe chuckled, giving a careless wave before finally spotting Lia. "Oh, Lia-chan, how've you been?"

Freya could have face planted the ground at how quick the mood changed.

Lia gave her usual gentle and peaceful smile. "I've been alright. I trust everything is going well with you two?" She ignored the loud YOU KNOW THIS ASSHOLE from the fairies.

"Yeah, we're just here to win the games. Again." Sting bragged making Lia quirk a brow. Now she really wanted to join in on the games if only to wipe that smugness off his face. He then walked up and patted her head, making Freya glare daggers. "By the way, you should come by the guild hall soon. You Know Who misses you~." He teased leaning close but Lia's palm pressed against his cheek to gently push him away. Still, she couldn't fight the blush forming on her cheeks at the thought.

Deciding she had enough, Freya stomped over making Lia jump in surprise. "It's a bunny!" Frosch and Lector cried in the background as Sting looked at it confused. Freya said no words, but only grabbed Lia's wrist and yanked her away. She stomped her way through the crowd, pulling the young mage along with her. Lulu followed, having gone unnoticed throughout the whole thing.

"Oh come on you weird bunny man!" Lia complained, before turning her head. She waved her free arm. "Bye Fairy Tail! Bye Sting, Rogue, Frosch, Lec- OUCH OKAY I'M COMING!"


A/N: I know I have another Fairy Tail story to work on, but I wanted to get this out of my head! Freya will be the one in the bunny suit in this story, so I hope this will be interesting. Please remember to review so I know what you think, thank you!

Also...bonus points if you can guess who Lia's boyfriend is.
