Chapter 6 – The Fight
Me: Lucy! You're needed in central stage!
Lucy: I don't wanna fight him!
Me: Don't be such a baby you'll be fine. I'll meet you in the infirmary after. 'Kay?
Lucy: That wasn't reassuring!
Me: Yeah,yeah,yeah. I hear ya. I do NOT own any part of Fairy Tail.
Lucy: Save me!
~PREVIOUSLY~
"Natsu, what the hell?!" Levy screamed, rushing to her unconscious friend.
"I don't need to deal with an angry Lucy right now. She won't hold back now that I know she's a dragon slayer." he replied simply.
"Lucy's a dragon slayer?!" a shocked voice came from the dark figure that blocked the sunlight from entering the guild hall.
Hearing her name as she finally awoke Lucy looked around, realizing she was in the infirmary. 5 people stood outside the door. Natsu, definately, Levy, Mira, Wendy and...Gajeel? I hope Natsu didn't say anything or I swear, I'll kill him. Sorry, Ig.
She stood and streched, evesdropping on the group outside.
"...we should tell the others?"
"Do you want me to die?!"
"She can't be that bad Natsu-san."
"Saw that again when I'm dead and we'll see if you're right or not."
"Salamander, chill the beans. Bunny Girl may be a dragon slayer but...you know what? You're right. Bunny Girl can be frecking scary...and she never uses dragon force. We should keep this to ourselves."
"Gajeel is right..."
"I knew you'd say that."
"What, Lu-chan is really strong with only her spirits. Her being a dragon slayer is not something to take lightly."
"Levy-san has a point."
"Fine, have it your way but we should at least tell Master."
"He already knows."
Lucy opened the door and stepped out into the dark coridoor. It was six, according to the clock on the wall.
"Natsu, I told you not to tell anyone." she said in a falsely sweet voice. Natsu gulped as Lucy's had was surrounded in a bliding yellow light.
"Levy, Mira, Wendy. Please move. My fight is with him, not you. It's not your fault he told you."
The girls that were blocking Natsu knit closer together so only his fluffy, pink hair was visable behind them. Gajeel just smirked.
"No way."
"Not moving."
"You can't make us."
Lucy's hand lay limp by her side, she couldn't hurt the girls. She just had to show Natsu not to cross her.
"Fine, just don't tell anyone."
"Bunny Girl, I won't tell anyone if you fight me. You can come anonymus and all. We won't tell a soul."
"Deal. One request though."
"I'm offering to save your ass and you're giving me a request?!"
"Hear me out, Metal Face!"
"Fine."
"Don't hold back."
"With pleasure."
Natsu, Lucy and Gajeel had to supress smirk as the three girls stared at them, jaws hanging open and eyes bulging.
A girl walked through Magnolia. Whispers followed her.
"Who is that?"
"Do we know her?"
"Is she headed for the fight?"
Questions followed her all the way to the sakura trees in the park. Fairy Tail stood before the trees. Gajeel was poised to fight when he saw the girl.
She watched them. She could see their faces filled with curiousity. Her hands were still in her pockets and her hood up over her head. That didn't hide her blonde hair with brown highlights or the pointed teeth in her grin though. Her black combat boots had a steel tow on them and her skinny black jeans blended into her black, baggy jumper.
"Not so fast, Steel Prick. Don't you think we should take this to an arena or something?"
"Fine, Star Face. Whatever suits."
They led her to the guild's fighting arena and everyone anticipated the fight.
"Why don't we make a bet?" the mysterious girl said.
"Fine by me. You choose first."
"Hmmm. If I win...you go out with...that blue haired girl there."
"M-me?" Levy squeled in shock.
"Yeah you. What's your name?"
"L-levy McGarden."
"Right, if I with you go out with McGarden over there."
"And if I win, you reveal your identity to the guild."
The group of peolpe around Levy, including her, gaped at Gajeel. How could he suggest that?!
The girl just laughed.
"Your on."
Master piped up.
"My dear. May we know who you are? Or something to call you by? We make bets on every match."
"Just, call me Star."
Gajeel and Star awaited Master's signal. A shrill whisle was heard and Gajeel was positioned for his first attack. Star still had her hands in her pocket, grinning like an idiot.
"IRON DRAGON'S METAL SHARDS!"
Iron daggers flew through the air towards Star. She just stood there and the crowd gasped as a clowd of dust surrounded her and the daggers. The dust cleared. The daggers were gone. Star stood in the same position as before with the same expression on her face. The only difference were the iron dragon scales that covered her body.
"No fair! That's my trick."
"Urusai! Geez your really anoying, Iron Jerk!"
"You stole my magic, Comet But!"
Another grin.
"No, I didn't. I know many kinds of dragon slayer magic. All of them, you could say."
Her body crackled with electricity at that statement and she forced an attack at Gajeel without moving. It hit it's target and Gajeel was on his but. He rose, cursing to himself. Shit! How could I have known this bitch was so god damn strong?! I'm gonna embarass myself in front of the guild and I won't hear the end of it from Salamander or that Ice Princess.
Suddenly, Star was behind him.
"You're wide open."
She socked him in the back, sending him foward a few feet.
"Water Dragon's Torpeedo."
A jet of water went flying towards Gajeel. It hit, exploding on impact. Gajeel was imobalised, lying on the ground staring towards the sky. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. He attemped to push himself up only to fall back down again.
A gong rung to signify the end of the match. Star shrugged and left quickly to avoid the questions she would be asked. The guild was going to be so hyped out tomorrow.
Me: Sorry for the short chapter everyone. Now, Lucy, I think you owe me an apology.
Lucy. Hai, Gomen'ne. And thanks for letting me beat the crap out of Gajeel. Damn Metal Face. Too cocky for his own good.
Me: And He has to go out with Levy-chan now too.
Lucy: Yes, yes he does.
Levy: Lu-chan, How could you do that to me?!
Lucy: You should be thanking me. I, personally, don't know what you see in him.
Levy: *blush He saved my life multiple times. I guess it's like you and Natsu.
Lucy: *blush Take that back. He's just on my team, nothing else.
Me: I leave you two to your argument. Sayonara mina. See you next time!
