At the arena of The Grand Magic Games
"The victor is Fairy Tail!" boomed the voice of commentator."With this,they've leapt to first place!And with this,day 4 of the Grand Magic Games is over!After a one-day break,the final battle will take place the day after tomorrow!The last day will feature a survival match,in which every member will participate!Which guild will triumph in the end!?Look forward to it,everyone!Thank you very much!"
The crowd cheered as the impossible happened. Fairy Tail,the previously known as the weakest guild rose victoriously upon Sabertooth, the recently strongest guild in Fiore. The third generation dragon slayers, dubbed the 'Twin Dragons' lied face planted of the floor of the arena that full of rubbles and debris,unable to move a muscle.
Natsu Dragneel,one of the first generation dragon slayers stood firm in front of them,cuts and bruises lined his body after the battle between the dragons slayers from Fairy Tail and Sabertooth.A soft smile appeared on his face before it evolved into a full blown grin.
"That was fun! Let's fight again." he said,his infamous grin still in place.
Lector looked down in horror,seeing his best friend been defeated by Natsu alone. Tears streamed down his face as he whispered softly, barely heard by others "Sting…"
The other exceed of Sabertooth,Frosch was no exception. He too was saddened by the turn of event.A few drop of tears leaked from his eyes.
'If Gajeel had as much power as Natsu…Just how much did I overestimate myself?" thought Rogue Cheney as he lied there helplessly.
Meanwhile,under the arena.
"Ugh,damn that Salamander!" groaned a certain Iron Dragon Slayer.
"I'll definitely kill you for this" threatened Gajeel to the thin air,a certain pink-haired Fire Dragon Slayer flashed in his mind.
To say that he was pissed off is an understatement. During the battle between the dragon slayers,Natsu purposely pushed him onto a wagon that took him on what he dubbed a 'Ride from Hell' to somewhere below the arena.
He stood up groggily,trying to balance his center of gravity. His face a little green from the extreme motion sickness from the 'Ride from Hell'. You see,as powerful and rare the dragon slaying magic is,it came with a price,which apparently the motion sickness that all dragon slayers seems to suffer from.
As he felt the motion sickness subsided,he took a glance to his surrounding.
"Where exactly am I?" wondered Gajeel out loud. "Am I under the arena?"
He walked a few steps,exploring the cavenous underground. He gasped,astounded by what he found.
"W-Wha..What is this?" his eyes widened,skeletons of massive beasts with fangs,snouts,wicked talons and wings lying around on the cave floor. They almost look like…
Dragons.
"I-Is this…A DRAGON GRAVEYARD!?"
At the palace.
"So,Sabertooth has been defeated…by Natsu-sama…" Yukino thought to herself.
Yukino Agria,a brilliant Celestial Spirit mage from Sabertooth,well ex-mage from Sabertooth considering she was kicked out from it by Master Jiemma since she lost to Kagura Mikazuchi from Mermaid Heel during her battle in the Grand Magic Games.
'After all,there's no place for failure in Sabertooth' she thought spitefully.'
"You must have mixed feelings,Sergeant Yukino." One of the soldiers said to her.
"No,I have no attachment to the guild anymore." she replied."I really can't get used to being addressed as sergeant"
"My apologies, but your participation in the Eclipse Plan require for you to at le have a temporary rank."
"The Eclipse Plan,huh?" Yukino tilted her head upward,staring at the glittering stars in the sky."If I can be of use,then I am prepared to put all my power into it."
"And also for the sake of Arcadios-sama,who invited me…Ah,should I address him as Colonel then?" Yukino asked the soldier.
"Don't worry about it.I usually called him Captain. In fact,his old friends just call him Dio."
"Is that so?Then,I take it that he is a humble man." Yukino turned to face the soldier.
"Yes,he is. From all the years I've been his underling,he always treats us like equal,like we're his friends."
"Friends,huh?" Yukino gaze turned skyward,overlooking the stars. Her lips curved upward,transforming into a small smile.A certain pinkette came to her mind as she remembered what he said.
A guild that makes their guild member cry…cannot call themselves a guild.
The soldier noticed this and felt relieved. Ever since Yukino joined them,her face always showed constant sorrow from her memories of her previous guild and she always wallow in self pity. Right then,being able to make her smile,even a small one at that, made the soldier proud of himself.
He chuckled slightly,remembering some funny moments of Colonel Arcadios. Yukino raised one of her brows.
"What's so funny?" her interest was piqued.
"Well,I remembered something about our good ol'Captain. Let me tell you,he is actually a really clumsy guy. One fine evening when we were scouting,he…"
At some random bar in Crocus
"ALRIGHT,LET'S PARTY!" shouted Cana while holding a large tankard of liquor.
Every member of Fairy Tail cheered in delight while raising their own goblet before gulping down on it. Soon,it was filled with laughter and every one of them enjoyed themselves as they celebrate the victory of Fairy Tail upon Sabertooth. That 's not even putting the light banter that seems to escalate into full brawl soon.
"Well,everyone seems to enjoy themselves." Lucy Heartfillia sighed exasperatedly on seeing at the what she prefer as normal occurrence in Fairy Tail.
"Every one has been working hard,so its fair that we celebrate it,right?" replied Gray Fullbuster out of the blue.
"Gah!Where did you come from?And wear your clothes!" Lucy yelled at him.
"Shit!Not again!" said Gray embarrassedly as he scrambled to the trail of clothes on the floor.
Lucy swore she could feel someone staring intently at the back of her head and heard 'Love Rival' muttered somewhere. A shiver run down her spine as goosebumps sprouted from her skin. Natsu just laughed good-naturely(of course by that,it means hard enough that he started to roll down on the floor with Happy).Wendy gave a slight chuckle at seeing the pinkette and the blue exceed behaviour while Carla just "Hmphed" but with a smile on her face.
"Oh yeah!Speaking of everyone,has anybody sees Gajeel?" Lucy asked.
"Yeah,now that you mention it. Hey Lily,where's Gajeel? Natsu asked(shouted) to the black exceed,Pantherlily.
"Unfortunately,I don't know either." Lily said.
"I'm here." Gajeel appeared out of nowhere,making Wendy gave a small 'Eep!'
"Hey Gajeel,where have you been all this time?" Natsu asked,but Gajeel just stared at them instead of replying.
"Oy!I'm talkin to yo…" Natsu's speech was cut out as Gajeel said "Hey Salamander…"
Natsu wanted to retort something,but upon seeing the serious look that Gajeel gave them,he wisely shut his mouth.
"There's something I have to show you."
