'I guessed I drank a bit too much." Ur sat up on the recognizable couch in the office and saw that Naruto was at his desk, going over the mission reports from the Eisenwald incident.
Deftly she stood up and made her way over to where the blond sat. He was absorbed into the report, possibly trying to figure what would be the guild's next big plan. She moved to the left of him, kneeling over, and her chest pressing against his back as she laid her right hand over his. "Morning." She breathed into his ear.
"It's two in the afternoon," he cheekily replied as he continued going over the reports.
She playfully swatted him. "I see someone's cheeky today."
"Come now Ur, we both know I'm always cheeky." He replied as a Cheshire grin formed on his face. "You should have seen them Ur, they've come a long way. On their last legs and they handled a demon from Zeref's book like pros. I think they're finally ready for the next phase of their training."
"Wasn't it your plan to wait a bit longer?" she asked as she took a seat on the arm of the chair.
"I wasn't sure how long it would take for them all to reach a state where their bodies could handle the strength of their magic. Only one out of a thousand mages can handle that much magical power as a prepubescent let alone when they're adults. That means going into phase three of my plan and ensuring the promotion of all the guild members up a rank. In a few months' time Fairy Tail will be the definitive number one ranked guild."
"So how do you plan on setting this plan in motion? Should I go down to the main area and tell everyone we're having a meeting?" she suggested and Naruto shook his head.
Grabbing paper from the stacks he grabbed a writing utensil and readied what he was about say. A recall to all Fairy Tail mages who were away from the guild.
Thankfully he had already sent out a message and asked them all to stay within the local area for their mission, but now he wanted to make sure they would all be there to witness what he had in mind.
It was the next day after the events of Lullaby and the Magic Council in their headquarters in Era were discussing something. They stood as always, on the large light blue magic circle standing a few feet from one another.
The first is Org, a tall old man with a large gray beard and mustache. He had pointy ears and one eye open. The elder member wore many layers of robes and on his head was a bat like creature.
The second is Seigrain, a young man around nineteen years old with blue hair and a red tattoo over and under his right eye. He dressed in elegant yet simple robes; consisting of a long white tunic with black stripes across the edges and on the upper part of the arms, a decorated collar, large straps connected to decorated buckles closing the inducement on the front over a dark shirt, and matching pants and shoes and also sported a ring on his right hand's middle finger.
The third is Ultear Milkovich, a pale-skinned woman with dark purple hair and brown eyes. Her clothes consist of a white short skirt kimono with a yellow bow tied in the back.
The fourth was Yajima, wearing his usual sleeve shirt and black three-spiked hat.
The fifth is Michello, a short old man with brown hair and a mustache. His tufts of hair resemble ears and what appears to be a light-yellow tail gives him a cat-like appearance. He like Org wore layers of robes.
The sixth is Belno, a tall elderly woman. She wore a cloak like the other council members, and has on a purple turtle-neck. She had a large nose, which gave her a witch like appearance and sandy blond hair, which is tied up into a large ponytail.
The seventh and last is Leiji, a tall middle-aged man who wore small, round, dark shaded glasses. He wore a white and blue Magic Council cloak, with the hood up, large thin lips and tan skin, black hair and huge sideburns that almost hit his lips, and on his chin are small chin hairs.
"Even with the defeat of the dark guild Eisenwald and their disbandment the problem at hand has of yet to be solved."
Org spoke up again, holding a glass case with the Lullaby flute sealed up. "It is simply intolerable to allow anyone to embezzle Zeref's Magic!"
"But how could they have gotten their hands on such a dangerous artifact in the first place?" Another council member asked.
"We might have to call management to take responsibility." Michello said while he stood by Leiji and Belno.
"Were it not for Fairy Tail the damage would have been immeasurable. Buildings can always be rebuilt and land reconstructed, but the lives of so many wise mage masters is not so easily replaced." Seigrain spoke up. "It appears they've saved our hides this time."
"A five man squad proved capable of defeating an entire guild." Ultear smiled her sleeve hand to her chin. "When the right individuals are brought together under the right leader the impossible can become possible."
"While the situation would have eventually been brought under control, there is not a doubt on my mind lives would have been lost." Seigrain added calmly. "Some of us here certainly would have been fired."
"That's nonsense! Are you bringing up the matter of responsibility here!?"
"We are aware this is far from the first time cultist or followers of Zeref have attempted to resurrect one of his demons. His followers are ever growing in number and next time we will not be so lucky." Seigrain noted.
"Which is why I propose we accept guild master Uzumaki's proposal." Ultear proposed as several of the council members were outraged.
"Nonsense!" Org challenged looking at the calm expression on Ultear's face. "The likes of Fairy Tail aren't known for their discretion."
"You think of Fairy Tail of old, but the past few years has showed us the influence Uzumaki Naruto has had. While Marakov-dono is both a great mage and has shown himself to be a father to his subordinates; the fourth master is something different altogether. He has been able to curve the guilds more destructive tendencies and channel it into something more positive. I would think you all would be ecstatic at his offer to have Fairy Tail work alongside the council in exterminating the dark guilds."
Belno, who had been quiet until now spoke up. "Unless the rest of you have a better alternative I suggest we at least consider this plan. If we don't handle things now we might find ourselves dealing with a dozen more demons just like Lullaby."
Seigrain kept smiling before offering his suggestion, "In that case lets invite him here and see if we can come to an understanding of sorts."
Lucy was sitting by her table facing the window while she was writing a letter to someone. Quill in hand, she wrote down the events of the Lullaby incident and her involvement with the others.
Eisenwald's attempted attack on the guild masters using the Lullaby instantly became a major news story that swept across the country. Even now it's hard to believe I was at the center of such a big incident, but my daily life is still the same as usual. Sometimes I feel scared when I think about it all, though. As it turns out, Kageyama and most of the Eisenwald members were caught. It was definitely a surprise that Kageyama turned himself in willingly. Everyone's words must have gotten through to him. What's scary is that Erigor managed to slip away? Well even if he does decide to try and get revenge there's so many strong mages here he wouldn't stand a chance. I still haven't had a chance to talk with Minerva yet. I thought she hated me yet she saved my life. It seemed like she could care less about me, but she went out of the way to put herself in harm's way to save my life. She's such a mystery. I guess that what makes this guild so interesting you never know what to expect out of its members. This is a great guild! So don't worry, Mom! I'm doing fine.
"Guess I'll go shopping today." she decided getting off her chair to stretch her arms into the sky. "Thrilling adventures are nice and all, but being home sure is relaxing!"
"Huh? You don't look like someone who can pile drive a gorilla through a mansion!" An unfamiliar woman's voice spoke from behind her.
She turned around and was shocked to find a woman she didn't recognize on one of her loveseats with a smile and a cheerful wave.
The person was a young woman with long, straight green hair that reaches down to her lower back, and a set of long bangs framing her face. She had brownish purple eyes, large breasts, and was wearing red lipstick. Her attire consisted of a Western-style hat on her head, a light, polka-dotted neck scarf, and a pair of reddish brown boots with a short, strapless one-piece dress decorated by plain blue color spiraling motifs with darker, white striped edges. This was Bisca.
"I'm Mulan Bisca nice to meet you." Bisca smiled cheerfully.
After convincing Lucy she was not a crazy burglar Bisca informed the blond the reason for her visit.
"Does he do this often?" Lucy asked. After the explanation the two of them had left Lucy's room to go where everyone had gathered for the meeting.
"Usually gatherings out of the blue like this mean an exhibition match. It appears the master might be planning to promote someone to a new rank. It could also be an announcement of another nature. " Bisca explained as they made their way to the training grounds.
Naruto had seen to it a plot of land was purchased and a training ground was constructed in order to avoid damages to the guild and city. The atmosphere was rather tense with low whispers and chatter as the mages of the guild had gathered.
"When I call for you come down to the center!" Naruto had shouted out to the assembled mages. "Minerva!"
Minerva raised an eye in interest. She practically glided down the steps. What task could her Naruto-sama have for her?
"Erza!"
For a moment Erzaa hesitated out of surprise before regaining her composure and walking down to join Minerva down in the middle of the arena.
"Gray…and put your pants on." He finished with a sigh, before shooting Ur a look. Why the hell couldn't she have passed on her alcoholism to her pupil instead of this habit of stripping clothes? Ur merely shrugged her shoulders.
"Lisanna!" If not for the supportive urging of Elfman and Mirajane the animal take over mage wasn't sure if she would have been able to keep to her feet.
"The heroes that took down Lullaby!" He announced as the rest of the guild members burst out into a quick cheer. When things quieted down Naruto continued speaking. "I've gone over your reports and I see now that it's time to take the strength of our guild to the next level. That some of you need a push in the right direction. Others have grown and are now ready for their training they couldn't handle in their youth and finally some of you are ready to move on to the next rank." Grabbing his jacket Naruto tossed it to the side. "And that's what I'm here to gauge, how strong the four of you are. Come at me with every ounce of power you have with the intent to win this fight. Be warned, I'll be taking this seriously."
The chatter practically exploded at this announcement. Naruto was going to fight? His former team mates and those he trained were the only ones who had gotten a glimpse of the blond's capabilities in battle which meant this was going to be an interesting match.
Naruto's proclamation of taking this seriously resulting in the others getting into their serious mindset as well.
Minerva's hands crackled with magical energy as the expression in her eyes sharpened. All her moves would now carry lethal proficiency.
Erza immediately changed into one of her armors which appearance was reminiscent of a cheetah. The breast place in fact took the form of a very revealing, armored cheetah-patterned top, with some bare armor protruding from the upper part of it, in correspondence to Erza's breasts, and some fur lining the lower edges. There was no waistguard, with the armor instead sporting a pair of revealing black shorts, with a belt holding a cloth hanging over Erza's left leg attached to them; the arms were covered by dark armbands reaching up just below Erza's shoulders, with Erza's left arm being protected by cheetah-patterned armor, consisting of a single pauldron and a wide arm guard. Her legs are covered in similar stockings reaching up to her thighs, with armored, asymmetric high-heeled boots over them: yet again, the left leg is the more armored one, with the boot reaching up to the knee, which is protected by a cheetah-patterned knee guard; the right leg, on the other hand, is covered by a boot only reaching up to part of Erza's calf with a large collar around Erza's neck and by a tail hanging from the back of her shorts, both made of bushy fur, plus a pair of large cheetah's ears adorning both sides of Erza's head.
The air around Gray became frosty as his breath became visible. Using his power he formed an ice Glaive of intricate designs. Hues of blue from the deepest ocean to the clearest sky blended together to make this beautiful blade whose handle was as white as snow while the blade part was reminiscent of a light sapphire.
Lisanna brought both hands up and steadied her gaze on Naruto. Now was the time to use what he thought her to full effect. Back and forth she began shuffling her feet being careful not to fall into a random, each step slightly changing the tempo or the spot her feet would land.
Now looked between the four mages and smiled. Now this was going to be fun.
