Hey everyone, I hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving. Thanks for the wonderful reviews.
Both Eve and Rufus walk towards the battlefield, facing each other. Rufus put both of his hands folded behind his back with a smile. Eve stare at Rufus with a solemn expression, watching him carefully.
"These two clash each other at the event Hidden. " Lola reminded the audience. "Now they are fighting each other on the third day of the Grand Magic Games! "
Eve held his hand in front of himself as a light green bluish magic circle appear. "Snow Magic: White Fury! "
Pieces of snow came out of the magic circle, shooting out, hitting Rufus who is just standing there with a big smile on his face. Once the snow hit Rufus it pass through him like he was just a illusion.
"That's your memory of where I was standing. "
Eve quickly turn to his right side to found the original Rufus standing there staring at him. "I already experienced your skill during 'Hidden'. " Eve reminded Rufus, confident he's going to beat him. Eve run towards Rufus with a big smile on his face. "And I remember it well. "
"You remember it, eh? "
As Eve run towards Rufus, Rufus face slowly change into... Ichiya?! Eve briskly stop running, panicking to see him especially him in the bathtub in the middle of the battlefield. "S-sensei! What are you doing here?! " Eve question Ichiya as he trys to slow down running.
"That's your memory. " Rufus inform Eve.
Rufus hit Eve from behind costing Eve to fall on the ground.
Ichiya, Ren and Hibiki mouth drop seeing this. "Eve got a memory like that?!" Ren shouted.
"What are you doing, master Ichiya? " Hibiki ask while suddenly laughing.
"I don't remember that parfum! Men! " Ichiya protest.
Rufus put both of his hands on each side of his head like he's doing telepathy. Once Rufus did that, the sky turn black like night, his body glows and weird gold orbs forming around him. "A star falls on the night! "
The gold orbs surrounded Rufus body and Eve as he got on his knees. The audience watch with curiosity of Rufus magic.
"A direct hit on Eve! " Lola announced. Eve shattered into pieces of snow. Rufus smirk seeing this as he shift his eyes behind him to see Eve behind him with a solemn expression on his face while he lower his hat a little. "Or so we thought, but it was just a copy made of snow! "
"A brilliant parfum! " Ichiya complement.
"That's the way, Eve! " Ren shouted.
"Keep it up! " Hibiki cheer out loud.
Snow flew with the wind like it was actually snowing. Eve smile as he stand up straight and held his hand out, another magic circle appear. "White Blizzard! "
"You waste time. " Rufus mock as he watch Eve.
"I don't think so. I'm using White Blizzard to search the location of your real body. " Eve explain, confident he will win. Eve shift his head to the left and held his hand in front of him, as snow gather up in his hand. "Over there! White Fang! "
The snow and wind flew up to Eve left side and hit the ground as the real Rufus jump up to dodge the attack of snow. Rufus landed on the ground at ease as he stand up straight. "I remember that magic. " Rufus rise both his hands and put them in the sides of his head once more. "Memory Make. "
Kagura narrow her eyes as she watch in the hologram Rufus and Eve battle. "That's... "
"Ancient Magic. " Rogue finish for Kagura as he watch the battle.
Yukino flinch hearing the type of magic that caught Kagura attention. "You alright, Yukino? "
Yukino nodded. "Yes... It's just... That type of magic truly frightens me. It reminds me of someone from... Sabertooth. " She explain.
Kagura blink cup of times at Yukino. Rogue shift his red eyes at Yukino. "You mean master Jiemma or... Minerva? " Rogue question with a emotionless tone.
She once more flinch as she heard the names. Yukino notice all eyes are on her that she quickly averted her eyes away from Kagura and Rogue. Kagura whirl around to face Rogue. "Minerva? Who's Minerva? " Kagura order.
Rogue sigh. "Minerva is our guild master daughter. Her father veins run through her bloodstream, that she as well can use Ancient magic. " Rogue inform.
Kagura put her hand underneath her chin in a thinking position. "I see... "
Yukino look back up at both Rogue and Kagura. 'Kagura ordering Rogue and he's obeying her without even one protest. That's new. '
"Yukino. " Kagura call.
"Yes! " Yukino answer right away.
Kagura study Yukino with a now solemn expression. "She hurted you? " Kagura ask with a emotionless expression. Yukino shift her eyes away from Kagura. Kagura sigh to herself out loud bringing Yukino and Rogue attention on her. "I take that as a yes then. She won't hurt you, I promise. " Kagura vow.
Yukino smile. Kagura was about to smile too til...
Aren't you soft.
Kagura heart pulse, her hazel eyes haze and she froze to her spot when she hear a young women voice. Rogue unfolded his hands as he sense fear and security around Kagura. "Kagura? " Rogue call out.
Kagura couldn't hear Rogue, Yukino, or anyone. Not even see anyone. Everything is dark... 'Where am I? Who's that voice?' Kagura question herself.
"Um, Kagura... Are you okay? " Yukino ask with a concern expression.
Kagura heard is giggling but then she zone out to be in reality once she felt two hands on her shoulder that made Kagura shiver and jump back a little. Her hazel eyes unhaze. Kagura blink cup of times as she look up to see Rogue staring down at her with a emotionless expression yet his red eyes reveal he's worry about her. She notice Yukino behind Rogue concern about her well being.
Kagura briskly look around to find the source of the voice, Rogue notice. "Are you alright, Kagura? " Rogue once more calmly.
"Yes... " Kagura lied.
Rogue narrow his eyes at Kagura, knowing she's lying but chose not to say anything about it. He let go of Kagura shoulders as he sigh out loud. "Let's continue to watch the battle. " Rogue change the subject.
"I had finally reached Kagura from this gifted magic by lord Zeref and E.N.D. " A voice of a young women who's voice sound gentle.
"Tch, when are we going get out of here? " A grumpy voice of a young man.
"The Eclipse Gate will open soon. " A little girl voice reminded. "But what if that plan doesn't work? " She question.
"Even if the plan doesn't work, we will come out and handle the problem ourselves. " A women voice inform them.
"We damn will we'll handle it ourselves! " The young man shouted.
"I respect your decision but I would love Kagura stays alive. " The young women comment. "She's very special too me than any human. "
"Their all the same but I don't care as long I get rid of the other pathetic humans." The young man responded.
"Soooo all we do is sit here and wait for the others to come? " The little girl ask.
"Yes, til then we wait and watch. " The women answer.
'Oh Kagura... '
The sky turn orange redish color and the temperature is no longer warm but hot.
Eve look at his surroundings then back at Rufus who smile wide at Eve. The ground shake underneath Eve as rocks came out from the ground, burning hot. Eve watch carefully as the burning rocks surrounded him for him not to escape.
"Rage of the Burning Earth! "
Rufus slam his hand on the ground as flames erupted from the ground and heading for Eve direction. Eve green eyes widen wide as the flames head closer to him. The flames hit Eve fast, lifting him up the ground. As Eve hit the ground with pieces of rocks with him, the sky is back to it's original color. The smoke clear up to reveal Eve on the ground, his clothes is ruin, his skin cover in burn marks. Eve gritted his teeth in pain.
"The winner is Rufus Lore from Sabertooth! " Lola announced as the audience cheer.
Sabertooth 14 Pts
Rufus bow as the audience cheer for his victory and walk back to his station.
"So that's Ancient magic... " Kagura mumble.
Yukino nodded. "Yes. Rufus is truly one of the powerful members of Sabertooth. " Yukino made a small smile. "Even Sting. " Yukino added.
Kagura rise her eyebrows at Yukino, giving her a questioning look. "And Rogue, too? "
Yukino grasp in realization. "I had forgotten about Rogue! He is one of strongest in Sabertooth." Yukino whirl around to look at Rogue who pay no mind towards her. "I'm sorry Rogue! "
Rogue shrug his shoulders, not caring at all. "Jiemma and Minerva is the strongest in our guild. " Rogue corrected Yukino. "Sting and I are not even close to his power. "
Kagura stare down at the ground, lost in her thoughts til she heard the announcement. "Millianna from Mermaid Heel Vs Semmes from Quatro Puppy! " Lola said the next battle. Kagura briskly glance up at the hologram to see Millianna and Semmes walk up.
Semmes face is painted in two white semicircles are located at its sides, each going from the eye to the corresponding side, while the central part is light blue in color. Semmes' eyes don't have visible pupils, being completely white. Semmes' large upper body is a single black garment, even extending up to his head and acting as an hood of sort, leaving only his face exposed, and growing a pair of prominent protrusions jutting outwards from the sides of the head, each ending in a large, golden sphere. The collar circling the area where Semmes' neck is supposed to be is also golden in color, while a large, light decoration shaped like the letter "X" adorns the central part of such cloth. The hood seems to be detachable from the shirt part, as shown from Semmes wearing it, minus the golden collar. On his legs, Semmes wears a light, mildly loose pair of pants reaching down below his knees, possessing prominent hems and coming with a sash circling his waist and bearing a similarly colored waistguard split in two parts, with each part hanging above the outer side of a leg. His feet are covered by dark shoes with light soles, which on the upper part bear a light "X" not unlike that adorning his shirt, though way smaller.
Millianna smirk seeing Semmes but as for Semmes, he just give her a solemn expression. Once they announced the battle may begun, Millianna remove her cloak and threw it on the ground. "Wild Spin! " Semmes shouted as a shield cover his whole face for him not to see as he spins, his hands extended all the way out to punch his opponent wildly as he spins his whole body like a top.
As Semmes spins towards Millianna with a big amount of speed. Millianna briskly jump on her right side, then jump up as Semmes try to hit Millianna, she did a back flip once she landed on the ground at ease. Millianna held her hand out as Semmes got closer, a magic circle appear. "Let's see I can slow you down! Nekosoku Tube! " One tube came out of the circle, heading straight for Semmes but bounce away. Semmes manage to hit Millianna as she flew. "It have no effect?!"
"Millianna! " The Mermaid Heel teammates shouted, worry about Millianna well being.
Millianna got up waiting for Semmes to assault her. "Come on! " She provoke him. Semmes spin his way towards Millianna as she smile when she held both her hands in front of her as a magic circle appears. "Kitten Blast! "
Two tubes came out of the magic circle, and combine together and curly up when it hit Semmes. "None of your attacks have any effect on my 'Wildly Spin'. " He hit Millianna who hit the ground once more. She scream in pain.
"Millianna !" Risley call out.
"You can do this! " Beth cheer.
Kagura cross her arms underneath her bosoms and close her eyes. 'Millianna, I know you aren't the type of person to let anyone defeat you. ' Kagura reopen her eyes slowly and smirk as she watch the battle. 'Especially when it comes to cats but instead of that, I know you won't let Mermaid Heel and your friends down. '
Millianna slowly got back up and gritted her teeth. "I won't lose to anyone like you... You say my attacks have no effect on you, I will find a way and I will win for Mermaid Heel!" Millianna shouted.
"It won't work. " Semmes once more spin in increasing amount of speed as he head full speed towards Millianna.
"Kitten Blast! " Millianna shouted as tubes begun to combine together into one large and thick rope. The tube hit Semmes lower body where his arms not pushing it away. The tube wraps itself around Semmes lower body.
"Let go. " Semmes demanded as he spin away, trying to make Millianna releasing him from the tube.
Millianna clinches tightly on the tube that is wrap around Semmes body but at the same time Millianna being drag away since Semmes is spinning away from her. She gritted her teeth. "No way! " She reject.
Semmes made a quick turn but didn't help as Millianna and himself collided with each other. Smoke everywhere, the crowd eager to see who's the winner. The smoke clear out to reveal Semmes on the ground with a sad expression on his face and Millianna sitting on top of Semmes with a big smile on her face. Millianna both hands hold on to the tubes that ties up both Semmes wrist now.
"Wild... " Semmes muttered.
Millianna step on his face. "Super strong kitten. " Millianna created her catchphrase.
"Winner is Millianna from Mermaid Heel! "
Mermaid Heel 13 Pts
"She won. " Yukino watch, stun at Millianna skill.
Kagura smirk. "That's Millianna for you. She's the one that brought me and the others into a team. "
"You had faith in your teammates no matter the situation, do you? " Rogue question as he study Kagura, trying to figure her out.
She nodded. "Of course. Never lose faith for your comrades. "
"Next battle is... Laxus Dreyar from Fairy Tail B vs Alexei from Raven Tail! " Mato announced.
Kagura and Rogue briskly glare at the hologram, this action caught Yukino curiosity. "What's the matter? " Yukino ask with a worry expression.
"It's Raven Tail... " Kagura muttered.
Yukino blink cup of times at Kagura answer. "Raven Tail had cheated at the first day of the Grand Magic Games. Flare use a little girl as hostage to make Lucy have a disadvantage in winner." Rogue inform with a solemn tone in his voice.
Yukino gasp. "No one didn't do anything about? " Yukino question.
Rogue shake his head. "The only ones that know about that situation is Natsu, Lucy, Kagura and I. "
"Now we should watch Raven Tail every move carefully. " Kagura look at Rogue who nodded then look back at Alexei in the hologram. 'Only a matter seconds that a lot of the guild mates, Rune knights and the judges pay closely attention to Raven Tail and realize their plan. '
Alexei enter the battlefield. His face is hidden behind a golden mask. It's slightly triangular, with a square part in the chin's region and two pointed parts in the sides, in the region of the ears. As characteristic feature, the mask has a trident-like plate in the forehead's region, forming a "W" pattern. It also has two opens next to the plate that allows Ivan to see, as well two white strips in each side of the mask
The rest of the armor is composed by a metallic pectoral, separated to the waist's cingulum by a piece of dark cloth. The cingulum also has two pointed plates in each side of Alexei body. For the legs, that are also separated from the cingulum by cloth, Alexei uses the traditional cuisse, with round poleyns and stylized greaves. Alexei arms are also covered by the dark cloth, and end into metallic bracelets attached to gauntlets, that have sharp pointed fingers. Alexei dark cape is attached to its side in the region of his neck, apparently by a circular fivel. The cape resembles Laxus' initial tunic, with a blue dense fur delimiting it.
Laxus enter the battlefield as well, staring at Alexei as he cross his arms against his chest, watching him carefully.
Mirajane clapped both her hands together and smile charmingly as she sees Laxus in Domus Flau. "Good luck! You can do this Laxus! " She cheer.
Gajeel cross his arms against his chest with a frown on his face. "I got no doubt that we gonna win this one. " He muttered.
Cana look at Juvia with a big smile on her face, knowing Juvia is somewhat have concern for Laxus going against someone from Raven Tail. "It's Laxus after all. "
Juvia shift her blue eyes towards Cana, drop of sweat of nervousness of the outcome of the battle. "Yes but still I got a really bad feeling about this. " Juvia confess.
Lola look at Yajima and Lahar. "Last time we saw these two guilds go head to head the outcome was pretty brutal for Fairy Tail. " Lola reminded them.
Yajima nodded before turning his head to talk to Lahar. "Excuse me Lahar, did you happen to bring any of your men here with you? " Yakima ask while he whisper for not Lola to hear.
Lahar look down at Yajima, he blink cup of times. "Yes sir, a few as per regulations. " He answer.
"I want you to keep a close eye on Raven Tail, okay?" Yajima order. "If you see anything suspicious just let me know and I'll stop the match. "
Lahar nodded in understanding. "Right. "
"Competitors step forward. "
Laxus and Alexei step forward as told to.
"Let the battle begins! " Lola announced.
As Laxus continue to walk he spoke. "A mysterious member of my old man guild, nice mask. " Laxus complement with a serious expression on his face. Laxus sniff the air. "When are you going to tell me who you really are? " Laxus question, narrowing his eyes at Alexei. Laxus eyes widen wide as Alexei suddenly run towards Laxus with incredible amount of speed, punching Laxus. That amount of power manage to push Laxus back. Laxus cloak came off as Laxus was about to hit the ground but briskly he use his hand to hit the ground and get his feet to hit the ground to whether slide back then hit ground. "Who is this guy? " Laxus question, he quickly look up and see Alexei heading towards him to do the same attack.
Laxus watch carefully but his eyes widen wide once more when Alexei change his tactics. Instead using his fist, he kick Laxus across the face, making Laxus flew away from the impact. As Laxus look at Alexei, Alexei through a beam of somewhat purple flames at Laxus pushing him further back.
Mirajane blue eyes widen wide, shock seeing the outcome. "Oh no. " She gasped.
"You got to be kidding me! " Gajeel shouted in disbelief.
"I can't believe he's losing. " Cana shock as well.
Alexei punch Laxus across the face, then kick him on his ribs. Before Laxus can even get up, Alexei did a uppercut Laxus by the jaw, that the attack cost Laxus to be lift up by the brutal attack. Laxus hit the ground and gritted his teeth in pain.
Laxus arms are cross against his chest and watch a version of himself hit the ground in pain, he then shift his eyes towards Alexei. "Care to explain what's going on here? " Laxus question with not a good mood face on.
"A type of Illusion magic. " Alexei answer. They both watch as both illusion of themselves are fighting or more like Alexei beating up Laxus. "It's the only way we can have a private conversation. " He explain his reasoning. "Those around us can't see or hear us even though we standing right in front of them. They're watching a illusion of two of us fighting. Incredibly convincing isn't it? Not a single person had notice you struggling to stand your ground on a losing fight." Alexei mock. "It must be really nice to know your guild mates have such high regard for you. I'm sure they're absolutely heart broken watching you fall to your enemy like this. "
Laxus close his eyes as he takes Alexei insults calmly. "I don't get it. This plan of yours doesn't make any sense at all. "
"No? "
Laxus reopen his dark green eyes. "What's the point beating me with a illusion, I mean can you call that a win? " Laxus question.
"Obviously victory in this match is not our ultimate goal. The purpose of this illusion to distract those around us. " Alexei inform that caught Laxus fully attention. "And if I control the illusion I control the outcome of the match as well. "
"Control it, how so? " Laxus ask with curiosity.
"Laxus! " A female voice call out.
Laxus look up and see Mirajane with a worry expression on her face for a illusion of him.
'Mirajane... '
Laxus punch Alexei, sending him flying to the other side of the battlefield. Laxus took a deep breath, trying to bear the injuries that Alexei had made on him. He held his fist in front of him as electricity running through his body and fist. Laxus run straight towards Alexei as he got up. Once he got close to Alexei, Laxus punch Alexei multi times with electricity in his fist, costing a greater impact in damage on Alexei.
Gajeel smirk seeing the table turns. "Well he's finally back in action. "
"Seems that way. " Juvia agree.
Laxus use 'Lighting Dragon Roar', lighting shot out of his mouth and hit Alexei.
Rogue narrow his eyes. "Something off about the match. "
Yukino and Kagura both whirl around, Yukino stare at Rogue with confusion. "How come? The battle look how the other matches are. "
"Rogue is right. Alexei seem to go really easy on Laxus but I truly doubt that, both their attacks are off aiming and doesn't seem real. " Kagura agree.
Rogue nodded. "I'm not surprise about that hand to hand combat but you knowing how a Dragon Slayer aim, I'm impress. " Rogue complement Kagura. "Though I had saw it in a other way. I may not know there scent very well, I can smell the audience, both Yukino and you. "
Kagura rise her eyebrows at Rogue. "So your a Dragon Slayer after all. What does the scent have to do with this? "
"Both their scents are faded and as well seem both not moving judging by both scents. Also four familiar scents." Rogue explain.
Kagura look at Rogue with a worry expression. "Is it them? " Kagura question.
Flashback
The target in the smoke, cautious not to aim at the clones. Once the smoke is clear up, the unconscious Nullpudding appear. Gray smirk seeing this but soon faded once a voice spoke up from behind Gray.
"That was a failure. "
Gray while around to defend himself, using his Ice Make: Shield to block the attack. "How? " Gray question him.
The man grin at his question. "By using a clone of myself as a shield. "
Fairy Tail A -1 Pt and Raven Tail 1 Pt
Before Gray can say anything he was attack from behind by Nullpudding who is using Needle Magic that made his hands larger. He punch Gray from behind. Gray soon disappeared once he got hit.
...
Gray appear another part of the city. He look up and see the hologram above that just change the results.
Fairy Tail A -2 Pt and Raven Tail 2 Pt
"Damn... " Gray curse under his breath before running to find anyone to gain points for his team.
Gray Fullbuster
...
Now when Lucy is distracted, Flare took the opportunity to grab Lucy by her leg from underground by her hair, swinging her around til she slam her on the ground. Grabing Lucy by her wrist and ankles, holding her up.
"H-how dare you?!" Lucy cough, glaring at Flare.
Flare tilted her head to the side. "Let's see how brave and confident you truly are."
Flare use her other strand of hair that turn into burning stamp of her guild, Raven Tail. "Let's stamp my guild mark over your guild mark. Hair Brand!"
"Don't, please don't!" Lucy cry as tears fall from her cheeks
...
"Urano Metria!" Both Lucy and Gemini shouted.
Bright light surrounded them three. A werid dimension that's like somewhat Celestial World. Flare was prepare to be hit but... Nothing happen to her. She glance at her surroundings, lost that she's back at the tournament and glance at Lucy who also look confuse.
"H-how can this be?" Lucy whisper when Gemini vanish. 'I was so sure I had it.' Lucy thought.
Lucy try getting up but she use all ounces of her magic to use Urano Metria. She glance at Flare who smile at her.
"I guess the fun is over. " Flare mumble before attacking Lucy once more with her red hair.
"Lucy! " Lucy heard Natsu call out in anger, right when she landed on the ground.
Lucy Heartfilia
...
"I feel like the sock I'm looking for is right underneath my nose." He sniff.
Kurohebi turn solemn, no longer smiling. As he watch Toby cry, he pointed at his chest. "Huh? " Confused about what Kurohebi try to say, Toby look down at his chest, tears of joy forming in his eyes as he held his sock right in front of him. "M-my sock... " He sniffed. "T-thank you, so much. I own y-you big time. "
The audience and the teams are shock hearing all of this because of it sock. Lamia Scale members face turn pale and bewilded as well especially embarrass by their comrade. Erza seems the only one to be stun by it, wiping her tears away with a tissue.
Kurohebi walk up to Toby with a serious expression and held his hand to Toby. Toby is awe at his action.
"Is this a truce for both opponents? " Lola question in the mic.
Toby reach for Kurohebi hand but Kurohebi grab Toby sock with a big smile as he tearing the sock to sheds, letting the remaining of the sock to fall. He turn away from the now heartbroken Toby, his back to him. As he walk away he spoke. "The more precious something is, the more I want to destroy it. That's me. "
Toby Horhorta
End of flashback
Rogue nodded. "We should be more worry about the guy name Obra and Alexei. "
Yukino put her hand underneath her chin. "Now when you explain it like that, it makes a lot of senses. How come Sting, Gajeel and Natsu doesn't say anything or do anything about it? " Yukino wonder.
Both Rogue and Kagura frown at Yukino question. "Natsu and Gajeel are too confident, hot headed and doesn't pay mind to their keen senses. " Kagura explain.
"And Sting too stubborn, hot headed and doesn't care about no guild but Sabertooth. " Rogue explain as well.
A sweatdrop appear on Yukino. "Oh... Do we stop the battle?"
Rogue shake his head. "We can't unless we want to get disqualified. "
"Besides that, the Rune Knights are here. We let them take care of it. Then again Fairy Tail could take care of it themselves. " Kagura added.
He's right Kagura but I wouldn't watch out for Alexei but to Obra carefully. Then again your not the enemy so don't bother worrying about him.
Kagura heard the young women voice again. Kagura held her hand in front of herself, and stare at the palm of her hand that is shaking a little in fear. Rogue narrow his eyes, watching Kagura carefully.
Laxus watch as the illusion of him got hit by the purple flames then punch across his face. "So that's your idea of controlling the match. " Laxus narrow his eyes at Alexei. "You think I care? " Laxus question.
Alexei held his hand in front him. "The point is, I can arrange for you to win this match, depending on how are negotiations fair. " He answer.
Laxus remove his cloak and let it drop in the floor. "Aren't no way I'm falling for that, I really don't give a crap about your stupid illusion. " Laxus rejected. Laxus held his hand in front of him as electricity flow through his arms. "But I can't wait to get my hands on the real you, so I can defeat you here and now. " Laxus tightens his fist, glaring at Alexei.
"That's not going happen. " A female voice laugh evilly. Laxus look at what's behind Alexei to see the same girl that Lucy fought at the first day of the Grand Magic Games.
"Reality can be pretty harsh sometimes. " A man appear that keep aiming at Gray at the Event Hidden at the first day.
Then another man that had defeated Toby from Lamia Scale at the second day and the other man that join the Event Pandemonium or MPF since Erza took down all the monsters herself.
"Your power is impressive but not even the strongest Wizards could defeat all Raven Tail at once. " Alexei warn Laxus. Alexei is about to remove his mask but pause. "There is one more thing to consider. " Alexei remove his mask, Alexei have black eyes and hair with a beard. "I'm sure you are aware of just how powerful I am, aren't you my boy? "
Laxus frown as he averted his dark green eyes away from Alexei. "You know, I had a feeling you we're behind that mask. " Laxus narrow his dark green eyes. "Dead be dead. " Laxus muttered darkly.
"Makarov would rather died than to reveal the secret. On the other hand, you're a different story. Surely, I can depend on my son. Now tell me where I can find the Luminous Flower." He demand.
Laxus cross his arms against his chest. "Sorry never heard of it. " Laxus apologize but at the same time he really doesn't care.
"Don't you try to play dumb with me. " Alexei or Ivan argue.
"I'm not. "
"If Makarov was to tell anyone, it would be his beloved grandson. "
Laxus frown once more at his father who is trying to outsmarted him. "Guess not because I don't know what you're talking about. "
"He must've told you something about it. " Ivan added it up.
"Nope but even if the old geezer had it's not like I would ever tell you. "
"Come now, I'm offering you a opportunity here to emerge victoriously from what is otherwise in a totally hopeless situation. If you dare to refuse my terms, your loosely reform won't be the only one getting a thrashing. " He warn.
Laxus gritted his teeth in anger of his father words. Electricity begin to surrounded Laxus body in pure anger. "You think you can scare me? Better think again old man. It's no wonder the old geezer give up on you." Laxus held his hand in front of him.
Laxus took a deep breath as he come himself down. "Come at me, all of you. Your the Fairy Tail master enemy then your my enemy too."
"I think it's about time for your father to teach you an important lesson that a guild standing before you was created for only one reason to take down Fairy Tail once and for all. "
"So you created Raven Tail just to take us down, huh? " Laxus muttered.
"Isn't it brilliant? " Flare ask with a big creepy smile on her face.
"I've hand picked them every member of our guild because they each specialize in a form of magic that Fairy Tail members are woefully ill-equipped to deal with.
"And decided by master whether for most elite. " Kurohebi added.
"Taking us all on would be akin to suicide boy. " Ivan reminded.
"Oh yeah. "
"We spent years learning the best way to bring you to your knees but if words aren't enough by all means test our power and see what happens. " Ivan provoke.
"The old geezer been doing his homework too, you know. " Laxus smirk.
Ivan eyes widen wide. "He send a spy on us?! " Ivan question.
"You got it pops. Everything from Raven Tail ranks and location to it's operating funds and activities over the past seven years, he knows it all. " Laxus informed.
"What?! " Ivan shouted.
"It mustn't have been Gajeel! " Flare theory. "I knew he'll betrayed us master. "
"Yeah, I always had a feeling that despicable iron chomping freak couldn't be trusted. " Nullpudding added.
"To think he was a double agent the whole time. " Ivan mumbled in pure anger.
"He never really struck me as being all that clever but it appears that I misjudged him. "
Gajeel sneeze out loud. "Damn I feel like someone talking about me. "
"Laxus... " Mirajane whisper with a worry and sad expression.
Gajeel shift his eyes at Mirajane and frown seeing her so sad. He cross his arms against his chest. "What's his problem? Did he run out of juice or something? I was hopping for a fight not this boring. " Then he look at Mirajane, putting one hand on her shoulder, grabbing her attention. "Hey, I know Laxus got this. You should have faith in him. "
Mirajane made a small smile at Gajeel. "Your right, thank you Gajeel. You had reminded me what I had told Laxus."
"No biggie. "
Flare put one hand on her hip. "Doesn't it seems strange to anyone else? " Flare ask with a smile on her lips.
"If Makarov knew our secret then why he didn't act on it when he had the chance? " Nullpudding question.
Laxus frown. "Because he's the stubborn old fool has a real knack for holding back when he shouldn't. " Laxus answer. Ivan begin to remember the past, he gritted his teeth in anger. "Hurts huh? After everything you done the old geezer still managed to have little faith in you because... You're his son. "
Ivan bit his lip in anger hearing Laxus his son telling him this. "Silence! " He shouted. Ivan held his hand in front of him as shikigami's gather up and heading straight for Laxus. Laxus guard himself using his arms to block the attack. Shikigami's hit Laxus. "Every waking moment I did in the shadows was to prepare for this day! To finally get the Luminous Flower within my grasp! I check everywhere, knowing the members of Fairy Tail won't give me what I want! Tell me Laxus, stop hiding it! Your my son, where is being loyal to your family community?! "
Purple flames gather up. Through the purple flames, Laxus sees a illusion of Mirajane, Natsu and Makarov appear smiling at him, a memory of his when Mirajane told him something that touch his heart and forever it will be and what Natsu and Makarov said too."Laxus I'll always have faith in you no matter the situation. I trust you no matter what." They say in unison before they faded away.
The purple flames shot out. Ivan smoke seeing Laxus not got one scratch on him. "No wonder you haven't move. You wanted to test my power or isn't perhaps that you can't strike your on father, what a good boy you are. " Ivan mock. Laxus smirk as he remember the memories he had with Fairy Tail, Ivan panic. "Do it now, Obra and drain his magic! It's time to show this ungrateful wretch the true power of our hatred for Fairy Tail! " Ivan order.
Obra rise both his hands up in the air. Before Obra could cost his power, briskly Laxus run straight towards Obra with incredible speed and electricity running his entire body. "Next time I hear about you picking on a little girl, make sure I don't hear about that cause next time I'll make sure you'll get it big time! " With that said, Laxus punch Obra across the face.
Flare and Nullpudding jump in the air. Flare unbraided her crimson hair. "Hair Shower: Thousands Birds! " Flare shouted with a wicked smile.
Flare hair turn into flames, shooting out aiming at Laxus as dodging her hair. Nullpudding took the opportunity to attack Laxus but Laxus manage to dodge both Flare and Nullpudding attacks at the same time. Laxus punch Nullpudding, sending him down on the ground. "That's for Gray! "
Flare took her chance to use her hair to grab Laxus wrist using her hair. Laxus turn to look at Flare. "Got you now Blondie. "
Flare turn her hair into flames. Laxus body is running with electricity. "Is that so? Well think again! " Laxus open his mouth to shot a beam of lightning at Flare. "That's for Lucy."
The beam of lightning hit Flare, she scream in pain before being sent to the other side of the battlefield.
"No way. " Ivan is too shock seeing this.
Kurohebi appear from the sand, behind Laxus. "That big. " Kurohebi whisper and was about to attack Laxus.
"Man your a creep. " Laxus rise his hand up in the air, lightning slash strike Kurohebi, sending him flying. "Get lost loser! "
Ivan eyes widen wide. "My whole elite squad had been taken out. "
Laxus stomp his foot that cast Ivan to flinch and step back as Laxus glare at him. "Listen here, I don't know what is your goal is here and freakly I don't care but there is only one thing your getting is for all your trouble... Pain! " Laxus eyes darken when he said the word 'pain'.
Ivan panic. "Now wait, I'm still your father don't you have any respect. You would harm me? Laxus I'm your flesh in blood! " Ivan shouted as he pointed at himself.
"Fairy Tail is my only family now! " Laxus shouted back.
"Then you'll share your doom you pathetic moron! " Ivan rise his hand up as he plan to do the same assault using Shikigami's. The shikigami's gather up once more, heading straight for Laxus.
Laxus destroyed the shikigami's with his lightning and run straight towards Ivan. "Anyone that threatened them, will be beaten by me! " Laxus punch Ivan sending him flying, and hit the wall, breaking the illusion.
Everybody is shock seeing the five members beaten. Mato ran towards Ivan and study his face. He quickly jump up and down panicking. "I recognize that face, it's the guild master Ivan from Raven Tail! "
"This is a brazen violation, the whole guild members and a guild master participating in a one on one. Raven Tail is here by disqualified. " Yajima announced.
Mirajane jump up and down in excitement. "Yay! "
Gajeel, Cana, and Juvia couldn't help but smile at Mirajane cheerfulness and Laxus victory.
"Told you he got this. " Gajeel said with a smirk on his face.
"The winner is Laxus Dreyar from Fairy Tail B! " Mato announced.
Fairy Tail B 18 Pts
The Fiore knights came and grab the disqualified team and guild master. Obra didn't get up but stand there lifeless. Kagura saw a small creature jump out of Obra or is that Obra? In the hologram Obra stare at the hologram. Kagura hazel eyes saw Obra white from the hologram.
"They win, that's good. " Yukino said happily.
Rogue smile at Yukino cheerfulness but so faded when he heard Kagura spoke. "Yeah... " Kagura spoke with a sleepy tone.
Kagura turn to look at Rogue. Rogue red eyes widen wide as he saw Kagura eyes. Her hazel eyes are now haze. Kagura slowly close her eyes and fall down. "Kagura! " Rogue shouted as he quickly ran towards Kagura to catch her body from hitting the ground. He caught Kagura by holding on to her by her waist.
"Kagura!" Yukino run towards to Rogue who had Kagura in his arms with a now full of conceal. "Is Kagura alright? " Yukino ask.
Rogue look down at Kagura who is unconscious. "It seems she just fainted. " Rogue answer. He pick up Kagura bride style. "Hey Yukino... "
"Yes! " Yukino answer, panicking when Rogue call her.
"Do you know where is the clinic? " Rogue ask while staring at Kagura.
Yukino nodded as she pointed at Rogue direction. "Just make the left from the first corner and the clinic should be there. " She explain.
"Thanks... " Rogue turn his back away from Yukino. "You can come if you want. "
Yukino blink cup of times at Rogue. "Are you sure? "
Rogue shrug his shoulders. "It's not for me but for Kagura. It seems she's cares about you a lot despite the battle between you two yet she leaves that behind. I'll bet she'll be glad if you come but than again it's your decision. " He explain. With that said Rogue walk away with Kagura in his arms.
'Rogue he had change a lot. He's slowly developing his emotions. Is it because of Kagura? ' Yukino smile to herself. 'Yeah even Kagura change. They probably would reject that but I could tell they care for each other deeply. ' Yukino quickly run after Rogue. 'I just wish Sting and I was like Rogue and Kagura. '
