AN: 2 days earlier! Maybe an update on Sunday too!
So I wanted shorter chapters to ease my brain – this is definitely not happening! I guess I'm sticking to the 3k each chapter... SO MUCH is happening in my brain I just have to put it in the chapter before the next one! But yes... my chapters may shorten later on but I highly doubt it with my story arc I've got waiting for you guys... Yahoo! I calculated it and yep its gonna be long...

Purple

The combatants who had fought were forced to migrate to a separate alcove so officials could differentiate between those who fought and those who were yet to take part. Loud grumbles rattled around the mages before finally agreeing.

Levy, Lucy, Natsu, Alzack, Bisca, Romeo, Lisanna and Elfman were left on their own as Gajeel, Wendy, Gray, Cana, Jet, Droy, Max, and Juvia sat on the other side, only a thin concrete wall separating them. Lily left Gajeel's side and sat with Levy, keeping her company with Lucy as Happy sat with his legs apart on Natsu's head eating a new fish Lucy had found for him, every now and then his tail flicked happily tickling the back of Natsu's neck.

Gajeel had reluctantly came back into the arena dodging all the looks that he was greeted with as his eyes looked redder than normal. Juvia was quick to leave his side as she spied Gray leaning with his back against the wall, propping himself up on the bench with his leg on the bench in front.

Cana was busy listening to Max tell her about how amazing her match was, she could only respond with that his match against Juvia looked as if he was going to win until she left... Shame it only lasted 5 minutes.

Jet and Droy were busy discussing Levy's tactics they knew she could do it, but up against who was the question.

"Hey... Gajeel?" Droy mumbled as he reached out to touch the man's arm.

Before he even touched it Gajeel stiffened signalling to the Plant Mage not to go any further, "Do you think Levy is going to win? I mean she did train with you and Lily..."

Gajeel didn't know what to answer with, what should he say, she's stronger than she used to be definitely. Could she beat him? No. She could handle Lily however those remaining he wasn't so sure on his wife. Screwing up his face angrily at doubting his wife's abilities he finally answered, not realising that Droy had given up waiting for a response several minutes ago.

"She'll win. Yah should have faith in her."

"But- You know... She's"

Gajeel snapped his eyes open. Did everyone know? He caught sight of Wendy blushing and trying to scurry away.

"Sorry Mr. Gajeel, Mirajane pulled it out of me!" She wailed before Carla rolled her eyes,

"Wendy!"

All the bickering and conversations about him and his mate going on behind his back were driving him wild, he could feel his body stiffen from the idea that he was the last to know. Even Salamander knew before him. Or did he?

"Does he know?" Gajeel growled, trying desperately not to frighten the young slayer.

"Um... Yes... But I think he wants to talk to you actually..."

Jerking his head back slightly at the thought of Natsu wanted to speak to him. On that matter. Definitely didn't sit well.

"Gajeel-Kun... Please sit down..."

"Seriously Gajeel, you can't get angry at her. You know how Mira is..." Gray interrupted followed by Jet and Droy moving to Gajeel's side in case they had to try and restrain him.

On the other side of the arena Mirajane was busy handing a small juice box to Asuka before she sneezed loudly. Making Laxus look at her, grinning wildly.

Throwing his large body down onto the bench he crushed Gray's foot making him recall in pain holding his throbbing foot.

"FUCK!" he swore loudly.

"Gray-sama! Let Juvia have a look!" She wrapped her arms around his head, holding his head in between her breasts as she panicked.

"Get off me woman!" his muffled cries let out as he peeked through her voluptuous mounds.

"Gray! I'll look at your foot!" Wendy scooted past Gajeel and set about checking over Gray's damaged foot from being crushed by an iron butt.

"So! Levy have you thought of a name yet!" Lucy clapped her hands together as she lent over Levy sitting on the bench, feeling nervous about who she might fight.

"Huh... Oh? No..." Her hand trailed down to her belly once more, still perfectly flat as before. Did she really have his baby?

Bisca left Alzack and Max and sat next to Levy, pulling her into a soft hug. "Levy... What's troubling you?"

"I..."

Levy felt her face warm up as her nose tingled. She knew she was going to cry. But she couldn't, not yet. She needed to win and the last thing she wanted to think about was having to become another fragile object for people to tiptoe around and protect.

Lucy gently sat on the other side, wrapping her arms around Bisca and Levy's back, both women embracing the Script Mage between their large breasts.

"I'm scared..." She managed to get out between slow deep breaths. She stared at the floor, her sandalled feet crossing and uncrossing as her brain ran countless scenarios in her head.

"Scared?" Lucy quipped, Bisca stroked Levy's blue hair slowly, making soothing noises, as a mother would to a child.

"Its alright Levy... I was scared too." her green hair slid down to her front as she glanced over at Asuka happily playing with Mira, Laxus and Erza.

"You were?" Levy's hazel eyes locked with Bisca who felt her self becoming misty eyed, she nodded in response.

"Mmhm. When I found out I was going to have Asuka I was terrified. We had lost our number one rank and so the jobs became few and far between. I was worried that neither Al or myself could support a little one. I didn't even tell Al until at least a month. The bump was tiny but it was still visible..." She smiled as she touched Levy's own belly. Her own purple coloured eyes swelling up with tears as she looked into Levy's hazel orbs both glittering against the afternoon sun.

Lucy held tightly onto Levy's hands sending her reassuring thoughts. Lisanna moved and knelt in front of Levy, holding her hands on the mages knees as she looked up, slowly stroking her knees with love radiating through her hands. Her soft blue eyes trying to soothe Levy's stormy emotions humming for a few moments Lisanna gently touched the Script mage's cheek, allowing them to lock eyes.

"Levy, I know Bisca really is the only one with true experience with children... But you love Gajeel don't you?"

She nodded as her cheeks began covering with a light dusting, she lent into the palm of her cool hand before it slipped away and fell back onto her knees.

"But I'm worried how he'll act when he finds out..." Levy turned to Lucy hoping to gain some support.

Sighing Lucy glanced at Natsu who waiting for the match to continue, he was raring to go and the wait was killing him.

Levy squeezed Lucy's hand as she turned her attention to Natsu. "Um. Natsu... Can I ask you a question?"

The cherry blossomed haired man turned around looking at the mothers meeting before him, a wave of dread covered him before realising the worrying scent flowing out of Levy. Lisanna shifted before Bisca's feet as Natsu stood before the bluenette and the other girls.

"Um..." Levy wasn't entirely sure what she wanted to ask of the man. It was definitely regarding being a dragon slayer, but perhaps she should ask Wendy... It was more of a girl thing she decided.

"Gajeel won't leave you." He looked stern at Levy. His black eyes not faulting her for one moment. "He's chosen you as a mate and as such he'd do anything to protect you, even your child."

Her eyes widened as Natsu spoke, "Lev, You shouldn't worry so much. If anything it pains him to have you not tell him. I bet you he knows already, you stink!"

"What?!" The girls shouted at his insult.

"Natsu!" Lucy shouted loudly at the Fire Dragon Slayer's crude language.

"What! She does! She reeks of pheromones! You just can't smell it Luce! It does stuff to us you know."

"D-Do you mean? Um... Its alright Lucy... I think I understand what he means... I don't smell bad... I smell... Good? Right Natsu?"

The grinned a large fanged grin as Levy hit the nail on the head.

"Yep! Say Luce, didn't you say Wendy wanted to speak to Levy anyway? Before she saw Gajeel the other day?" Natsu smiled innocently as the blonde looked in horror as she had forgotten all about it in her training for the upcoming match.

"Erm... Haha well Levy you see Wendy wanted to speak to me about it so... You would understand it without the surprise... and erm... Mirajane found out..."

Levy groaned releasing hold of Lucy's hand and buried her hand into her hair. "So everyone knows then... Even Gajeel?"

"Yup!" Natsu grinned.

"Wait... Wendy? I'm confused..." Levy peered up to Lucy, looking hard at the blonde who was busy sharing smiles with everyone in the alcove.

Gajeel listened intensely to the conversation, he was only on the other side but he could hear his mate. He could feel her pain and it angered him that she was afraid to tell him. Was she still scared of him? After everything, why should she be scared? Closing his eyes as his broad shoulders held his crossed arms he tried to maintain his thoughts, trying to refocus on the small positives. He was going to be a father, would he be any good? He had no experience with children, he never bonded well with Asuka like Natsu did. Throwing his head backwards he let out a loud groan. This was going to be harder than he thought. He couldn't let Levy do all the work, but he had no idea how to deal with it. Metalicana was no longer around to ask on upbringing. A small body sat next to him her long blue hair brushed against his bare studded arm.

Whispering so only Gajeel could hear Wendy spoke softly, making Gajeel's face blush deeply before staring at horror. "Yah can't be serious?!"

She nodded before hopping off and sitting next to Jet and Droy listening to various stories and regaling her own.

Master Makarov stood on the wall looking out at the crowd, "We shall be beginning the second half of the matches. We will be going straight into the final three matches afterwards so make sure you are all ready to give it your best!" He raised his hand as the crowd cheered loudly and the rest of the combatants waiting to fight raised their own hand in recognition.

Asuka held the large colour changing lacrima in her arms as Laxus kept hold of her, ensuring she wasn't going to fall off the edge, her cowboy hat fell forwards slightly preventing her from looking out, pulling it backwards Asuka grinned up at the blond who promptly avoided her eyesight failing at hiding his blushing cheeks.

The colours revolved around and around, slowly falling on purple.

Erza cheered loudly before Mirajane could speak up, the scarlet haired woman was utterly in love with announcing now and she was refusing to let the other two speak, her eyes sparkled as she roared, "Those with purple straws enter the arena! Give it your best!"

Mirajane sighed with a small smile, she wasn't going to win against Erza in this field, she could let her have her fun.

Lisanna stood up from Levy's front as she realised she had a purple straw,

"See you later Levy! You'll do fine!" she winked before hopping over the edge towards the second level of the arena.

Elfman shook in his seat. He was going to have to go up against his baby sister. His tree trunk arms pushed himself up from the bench as he meandered over towards the edge.

"Go Elfman!" Lucy cheered.

"You're the MAN!" Natsu laughed loudly as he wanted the silver haired mage to give it his best.

Turning to look at Natsu he nodded, holding up his huge fist grinning wildly. Crying out "MAN!" he leapt over and landed with a large thud. Facing Lisanna standing with her hands behind her back, smiling brightly at her older brother.

"Onii-chan! Are you ready?!" She beamed brightly at her older brother, still some hesitation sat behind his eyes, but he was past her disappearance at least.

"Yeah! To fight one's sister is to be a real Man!"

Lisanna tilted her head from the bizarre sentence, surely it was more man not to fight... She giggled as she waited for the bell to ring.

Ringing the bell loudly Mirajane cheered loudly, proud of her brother and sister, she expected a good fight as did the rest of the audience, glued to the lacrima screens to look at the Take-Over Siblings.

Elfman immediately transformed into his Beast Soul, his arms growling longer as he grew thick fur, his hands turned into sharp claws. His hair grew turning into a mane-like appearance as his ears and canine teeth pointed. Sprouting striped horns from the plate on his forehead. His feet turning more bird like appearance with dark claws as his trousers were the only piece of attire left on his body.

Lisanna beamed as she quickly transformed herself into her Cat Form. Her white hair grew as she sprouted ears, whiskers and sported a cats nose. Her long striped tail connected to her tiger-skin two piece bikini. Her hands and feet sported concentrated striped patterns as she wore feline-like pads and sharp claws on her finger tips.

She winked at Elfman before sprinting off towards him. Her body was fast as she nimbly made her way across the field, her hands swiping furiously at Elfman as he covered his face feeling her claws dig deeply into his forearms. The blood began to seep out into the fur as she attacked her paws began to cover in blood, yet this did not cause her to falter. Her attacks were relentless until she stopped momentarily to pull back to regain a breath only to find that he grabbed hold of her arm in that split second, he threw her body into the air like a rag doll. As she sailed upwards he used his powerful legs to jump into the air with great force and head butted her in the stomach, winding her. She coughed loudly as she felt the air rush out of her body.

Her mind becoming foggy she realised that she was going to hit the ground, recasting quickly she chained into her Harpy Form. Her arms and lower body transformed into that of a bird, her arms flapped violently to keep her afloat in the air as she watched Elfman pacing beneath her. Looking around he grabbed several large boulders and began throwing them towards Lisanna hovering in the air.

She dodged, trying to regain her breath whilst not wanting to be on the ground. Each boulder was getting increasingly closer to her body with each strafe.

Elfman roared almost demonically, vibrating the arena around them. What was left of the ceiling came rumbling down and threatened to take the audience seating with it. Those at the front quickly scurried away and sat several rows back in case they fell into the pit.

The Fairy Tail audience roared loudly, taking over the own crowd as they leaned over looking down into the crumbling pit. Cheering the pair on.

Lisanna was fighting a loosing battle as the rocks fell from above and flew up from beneath her, every now and then a rock Elfman threw hit another one that was falling, creating a large cluster of explosions near by showering her in dust and rocks. Grinding her teeth Lisanna threw her wings backwards and aimed directly for Elfman's core her head being the full brunt of the force.

Dodging the rocks she managed to hit Elfman in the gut, sending him sliding backwards his claws squealing along the metal floor as he dug them into the ground to prevent him from tumbling backwards, transforming into her Cat Form once more, she began a heavy flurry of punches, swipes and kicks onto Elfman's Beast Form sending him flying across the floor. Without letting up she transformed once more into her giant Rabbit Form. Jumping high into the air her purple body landed with a heavy thud burying the Beast Soul.

She felt the ground sink underneath her heavy weight as a glow tried to escape, lifting her foot Lisanna felt two claws dig into her foot, transforming back into her cat form Lisanna looked at her brother before her.

Standing on his hind legs in his Weretiger form. His toes sprouting sharp, dark claws similar to that on his fingers. Aside from the front of his torso and the back part of his legs, his body was largely covered in dark spots similar to that of a leopard. His long messy and dark mane sat atop of his head as his ears grew longer and more pointed alongside his muzzle. He flicked his long feline-like tail in annoyance as he eyed his younger sister. Grunting.

"I didn't expect you to use that form!" She giggled as he came charging at her, his hands swiping ferociously as she tried to fight back.

Elfman battered and bruised Lisanna before she promptly turned the table on her older brother sending him backwards with her own furious flurries of punches and kicks. Cutting his fur deeply. Lisanna opened a half lidded eye the other was deeply scratched and bleeding profusely. She held a paw up to her eye trying to focus on Elfman on the other side. He shot towards her, his shoulder protruding forward. His shoulder slammed into her body sending her into a large bolder that littered the field. She coughed trying to breathe short sharp breaths as blood spilled from her mouth and down her front. Dribbling onto her almost naked chest.

"LISANNA!" Natsu roared loudly as he lent over the edge trying to focus on the small battered Take-Over sibling. Several other Fairy Tail members all rushed over to the edge and looked down trying to see her move.

Elfman blinked, had he gone to far?

Using the last of her strength Lisanna transformed back into her Harpy Form, Elfman continued to attack as she too was willing to continue, her transformation proved her determination to her older brother.

Trying her hardest to fend off Elfman's swipes she managed to grab hold of his huge furry shoulders with her talons. Digging her claws deep into him, anchoring her in. Flapping her wings as hard as she could muster she began to circle the arena flying higher and higher trying her hardest to ignore the burning sensation he was causing her feet and legs as he clawed furiously to be released from her grasp.

The young sister managed to make it out into the open and had by now picked up considerable speed. Tossing Elfman into the air she watched his body begin to plummet back down into the hole, far beneath them.

Breathing deeply Lisanna transformed for the final time. Her Rabbit Form and followed quickly behind Elfman, the silent whistling noise of her large body following that of his as he stared wide-eyed at the base of Lisanna's large purple body rapidly reaching his own falling body.

The sound of Elfman's body hitting the floor quickly followed by a deafening crunch as Lisanna's body crushed that of Elfman beneath her.

The arena was silent as both siblings felt their transformations leave their bodies. Lisanna looked up with a weak smile on her face, as Elfman's eyes began to roll as he looked at his younger sister sitting on his chest.

The bell rang loudly as Erza shouted into the microphone fluttering about the S-Class mages and Master Makarov. "Congratulations Elfman and Lisanna!"

Mirajane hopped onto the microphone as she held an arm around Erza's steel pauldrons, "Elfman, for your excellent skills we've awarded you with 21"

"Lisanna you got 24" Laxus grabbed hold of the bird microphone its tiny wings and eyes flapping wildly from being man-handled.

"Great job out there!" Erza added into Laxus's hand as he still had a tight grip on the microphone struggling to escape.

Elfman grinned at his younger sister, she had bested him this year, he still had a chance and hopefully he could go to Tenrou again and become an S-Class but right now, his sister...

"Lisanna..."

"Onii-chan?"

"You're a real Man!" he croaked as he held her blooded hands. Both of them covered in each others blood as they passed out from exhaustion both smiling brightly.
