Next chapter is up enjoy!

Okay so from a review I understand it's become confused that the names of characters I have on the summery (those four names you choose to help filter characters) mean that's who everyone will end up with, no Lucy is dating Natsu, Levy has no set person, I am going to play around with her and the people around her so you will have no idea who she eventually will end up with, if any! I'm sorry if this has caused confusion because I know most people use the filter to show who is with who, I'm going to change it anyway so don't focus on it okay? Cool :)

The bandits got over the walls like ghosts, taking out non-lethally every guard they came across. They were spread out in teams of four, most charged with taking out the guards others with keeping watch, one particular team however was going deeper in to take the princess. Each team was named. Team Natsu consisted of Natsu, Lucy, Gray and Erza, Nastu was an expert fire dancer, which doubled as his front as a bar owner and fighter. Lucy wasn't much of a fighter since she was a servant from the castle but she carried a whip and she could use it, Gray was a sword fighter, as was Erza except she was something else she could fight harder and for longer than most men, she was a specialist in all weapons.

Their job was the guard tower, they needed to knock out everyone inside and stop

the alarm from being raised, which would result in most of them dying should they fail.

Team Shadow Gear had Juvia a mostly quiet girl and her team mates, Jet a very fast runner, Droy the look out and Gajeel a forge master and fighter, their job was the south gate the exit strategy for all of them, they had to take out the guards and keep the exit open. Another team consisted of Warren, Max, Laki and Nab, they kept watch on the west wall, which they scaled, they kept eyes on everything ready to signal at the first sight of danger, unfortunately this made them very exposed, but it was their job.

The final group was the Thunder Tribe, Bixlow was a potions expert and with smoke concoctions of his own design he could keep them hidden, Evergreen was a fan fighting force, she fought with fans and could deflect blades with ease. Freed was more of history scholar but he was also a fighter, he greatly believed in honourable death and finally Laxus like Erza was an expert fighter, he also had the muscle and the brains to get the job done, their team would be the one to steal the Princess.

Once their objective was complete they would leave this town back home to where their leader was and the last team, Mira a bit of a mother hen to the bandits however a deadly swordswoman, Elfman her brother another fighter, Lisanna their sister and Kinana.

There were others in their band of bandits such as Mavis, Hibiki, Ren, Eve, Sherry, Yukino, Wendy, Romeo, Happy and Carla. Happy and Carla were actually animals they had adopted, Happy was a golden tiger who was going to be killed for his fur, Natsu saved him and looked after him since and Carla was a white lioness very rare also very coveted for her fur Wendy looked after her back at the base. Laxus looked to his team and nodded they jumped from the wall landing lightly on their feet and raced into the palace.

I know this is more of an informative chapter about the bandits plan but I have my reasons I wanted to show what was happening from an outsiders 'god' perspective, next chapter really soon to make up for it okay?
