Chapter 3: Announcement and meeting
"What!" Everyone in the room yelled at once.
"But that can't happen now that Sting is the master of Sabertooth." Goldmine exclaimed.
"Yeah… hehe, about that," Makarov said while rubbing the back of his neck, "apparently they looked into how Sting became guild master and they order him to relinquish his title of master and appoint someone else as master."
"What" Everyone yelled again then turned and looked at Sting, who was standing in the middle of the hall with the most deadpanned look anyone saw.
He was just standing there, legs spread, arms hanging slack in front of him, mouth open as wide it could go, eyes fully widened and blank of anything even pupils, head tilted to the right, and his right eye twitching.
"Uh… Sting, are you ok?" One of the guild masters asked shakily.
Sting didn't say anything and just fell backwards in the same position he was in.
The masters were shocked at this and the ones closest went to check on Sting.
"I think he's out." One master said.
"I got it." Another said as he raised his hand and a torrent of water came shooting out and splashed Sting right in the face.
"Ugh! Ah! WHAT THE HELL!" Sting roared as he was awoken by the torrent.
"Just trying to wake you up." The master that splashed Sting said with his hands up in defence.
"Hacam… now that that's over, the council has requested that Fairy Tail, Sabertooth and Blue Pegasus be in on the collaboration and no one would like us to select a up to six members from each of our guilds, including the dragon slayers." Makarov said.
"That many, this must be one dangerous weapon." Bob said.
"Indeed it is Bob, indeed it is."
(2 hours later: Magnolia)
It was crazy at the Fairy Tail guild hall, but then again when wasn't it crazy there. Natsu, Gray, Elfman, and Gajeel were fighting their hearts out, Lucy was at the bar holding Happy in front of her with the word 'Shield' written on a tag, Wendy
/trying (and failing) to stop the fighting, Cana was drinking, levy was reading, Juvia was stocking, Mira and Kinana were waitressing and Lisanna was working the bar.
But as Lisanna was doing this job, she was watching the fight, or to be more specific, Natsu. It's no secret that she still has a crush on him from when they were younger, but rumor around the guild was that Natsu had a thing for Lucy and since she and
Lucywere good friends, Lisanna just buried her feelings and went on with her life. But that didn't stop her from watching him.
About ten minutes later, Makarov walked in to find another fight going on in his guild hall while he was away.
Makarov enlarged his left hand and squashed all the people fighting flat.
"Enough!" Makarov yelled.
"Yes sir." All the combatants said in unison.
Makarov walked over to the bar and jumped up on the counter.
"Welcome back master. How was the conference?" Lisanna asked as she gave the old master a pint of beer.
The old man chugged the the beer and let out a sigh.
"Listen up my children, the magic council has ordered that Fairy Tail, Sabertooth, and Blue Pegasus make a collaboration and destroy this group of wizards that are trying to acquire a very dangerous weapon." Fairy Tail's master exclaimed.
"What!"
"What kind of weapon could be dangerous enough to require those guilds to team up?" Gray asked.
"Not even the council knows. But they are requesting that all known dragon slayers participate."
Natsu stood up from his chair, lit his left fist on fire, and said hs signature catchphrase, "ALRIGHT I'M ALL FIRED UP NOW!"
"Ok, this sounds like fun." Gajeel said.
"Oh… I hope I don't mess up." Wendy said.
"In addition, I would also like Gray, Erza, and Levy to accompany them on this quest." Makarov said.
"WHAT! Why me?" Levy questioned.
"I have a feeling that they might need a translator for this quest and you have more experience working with dragon slayers." Makarov explained.
"Don't worry Levy, I'm sure you'll do good." Lucy said trying to cheer up her friend.
"Ok."
"Master, where are we supposed to meet with these guilds?" Erza questioned.
"In a hotel named Flow in the city of Aquaview tomorrow."
(The next day: Aquaview station)
"N-never a-again. I'm never riding a train again." Natsu complained, the proceed to vomit.
"I'm sorry that I couldn't help you." Wendy apologized.
"You have no reason to apologize child." Carla said.
Erza walked over to Natsu and grabbed him by the scarf and then started to slap him as she yelled at him, "Come on Natsu, snap out of it! We have a job to do!"
Erza let him go and Natsu fell on his face and after a minute, was all better and ready to go. The group of six Fairy Tail wizards then proceeded to make their way to the meeting point.
The city of Aquaview was beautiful, a city full of water on a mountain. Everywhere you looked there was water, there were rivers in every street, waterfalls coming out of the walls of the streets, and all the shops and stores were named after water aspects.
It took them two hours, but they were finally able to find the hotel that they were supposed to rendezvous with the other guilds.
"Well it's about time you guys showed up." A familiar voice said behind them.
