Day four of the Grand Magic Games is here. Mansin said that this event will be Naval Battle, an event where a member from each of the teams will battle in water. That event brought back a few memories to Lucy.
"Man. Just looking at that makes me feel all those bruises again." Lucy said.
"I almost forgot. Minerva practically beat and tortured you in there and you couldn't do a thing to fight back." Gray said.
"Yeah, but I doubt something like that will happen again." Natsu said. "After all, her daughter doesn't seem as bad as she was."
"True, but there are others that are just as bad." Erza said as she kept her eye on Griffon Wing.
"Here's how the Naval Battle will work." Mansin said. "It's a soaking wet battle royal where they can all breathe in water. Each member from the teams will try to knock the others out of the water. Once we're down to the last two, there'll be a five minute period. If either one of the last two falls out during those five minutes, that team will automatically drop to last place. It looks like the participants are diving in." One by one a member from each team dived in. "We've got the young little Lilly from Fairy Tail."
"I said I would do this and I am." Lilly said.
"From Mermaid Heel, Milly is getting her paws wet." Mansin said.
"Cats hate water, but I'm willing to get wet for my guild." Milly said.
"We've also got one of the roughest girls around: Jade from Twilight Ogre." Mansin said.
"I'm the one who's going to win." Jade said.
"There's also the fabulous Taniya from Blue Pegasus." Mansin said.
"Sorry, but Blue Pegasus is the one who's going to win." Taniya said.
"We also have the tiger that is as powerful as she is graceful, Athena from Sabertooth." Mansin said.
"Sorry, but I'm the one who's going to win this." Athena said. All the guys were going crazy seeing all those lovely ladies out there.
"I wish I could say we're having a bikini battle, but I have to be neutral and there are a few guys taking part." Mansin said and that caused a lot of groans. "I know, but it's part of the games. We've got the underdog from Quattro Cerberus: Botto!"
"WILD! I get to have this bath all to myself with some lovely ladies." Botto said.
"Another underdog is taking part. From Lamia Scale, Todo." Mansin said.
"I'm not going to lose this time." Todo said.
"Finally, we have Shadin from Griffon Wing." Mansin said with Griffon Wing diving directly from the top.
"This is perfect." Shadin said.
"Those guys are so lucky." Lee said. "I wish I was in there and hanging out with those girls. They all have the bodies of models." The rest of Sabertooth were a little concerned with how Lee was going to act through this event.
"Let's do this. The Naval Battle starts…..now!" Mansin said and the battle started.
"Let's get this started." Athena said as a multiple colored light formed on her hands and she caused places in the water to explode around and things were starting to heat up.
"Whoa! That water is starting to boil. I knew her magic was dangerous, but this might be too close for comfort." Lilly said as she and the others were trying to avoid the blasts.
"I'm not going to just swim around." Jade said as she swam around and had Botto in her sights. She swam fast and kicked him hard in the back. "No boys allowed!"' Jade had some strength on her side as Botto was shot straight out of the water.
"Botto is the first to come out." Mansin said and that was a bummer to all of Quattro Cerberus. "We're going to hold off on how many points they get until that five minute period is over."
"Please have one of the guys switch places with me. I don't care if you are in another guild." Lee said as he just couldn't contain himself.
"Sit down." Shae said as the others of Sabertooth were annoyed with him.
"Stop being embarrassing." Rona said.
"And you guys think my womanizing is bad." Owen said. The Naval Battle was being a fierce one as Milly used her tubes as whips and Lilly was doing her best to avoid her.
"You're going to have to put a fight eventually." Milly said.
"Don't worry about that because I will." Lilly said.
"Guys, I'm a little concerned. Do you think she'll be okay?" Nagato said as he was worried for his sister.
"You worry too much." Lance said.
"Seriously. Have some faith in her." Ul said. Nagato wanted to, but he can't shake this feeling like something bad is going to happen.
"You're mine, Athena!" Todo called out as he had his nails grow out and was swimming right for Athena. "I'm going to get my payback after you beat me."
"I don't think so." Athena said as she held out her hand and used her magic. An explosion went off right in front of Todo and sent him flying right out of the water and landed on his butt.
"Todo is out. That only leaves six." Mansin said. The rest of them kept fighting. Jade and Taniya were fighting at close range combat. Taniya kicked off of Jade and flipped back. She looked up and saw Shadin just floating near the top.
"The audience will get a pleasurable show if it's just us girls." Taniya said as she swam up to him and Shadin saw her coming. "Sorry, but just like Jade said that this is girls only."
"Oh please." Shadin said as he didn't seem the least bit concerned. Taniya was about to strike him with his fist, but Shadin held up his hand and blocked it easily. "You're no match for me. None of you are." He brought his arm back and slammed it into Taniya's gut and she got hit hard.
"Taniya!" The members of Blue Pegasus called out. All of them looked up to see what Shadin did.
"Get lost." Shadin said as he smacked Taniya across the face. The force was so hard that she was sent flying right out of the water.
"Oh dear! Taniya is out and that was brutal." Mansin announced and the crowd instantly went against Shadin.
"You creep!"
"How dare you even touch her!"
"Who hits a woman like that?!"
"Hey! That was a bit rough. Who hits a girl like that?" Lilly said, but Shadin's response was a chuckle.
"Boy? Girl? It makes no difference." Shadin said. "Griffon Wing shows no mercy to anyone. Allow me to show you lovely ladies." He had dark magic form in his hands. "Come my minions of the shadows." Dark figures in cloaks began to form and outnumbered all the girls. Gajeel and Juvia knew that magic so well and it sends shivers down their spines.
"No way! No way!" Juvia said as she couldn't believe what was right in front of her.
"He uses the same magic as Jose did!" Gajeel said.
"Impressive, but that won't help you." Athena said.
"We'll see about that. Go, my minions. Let's give these ladies a ride they won't forget." Shadin said. The shadow figures started to fly around in the water and started to create strong currents flowing around the whole thing and was making it hard to see.
"What's happening in there?" Mansin said. The girls were getting blown around for the currents were too strong for them to fight. Athena tried to resist.
"I'll just have to shoot him out." Athena said as she tried to use her magic, but one of the figures flew right at her and passed through her and she felt her strength become weak. "These things can weaken magic power?!"
"Looks like another win for us. Send them all flying." Shadin said. The shadowy figures used the currents and tossed Athena, Milly, and Jade right out.
"Oh my! They've been thrown out at the same time." Mansin announced as Shadin was sure he won. "It looks like that Shadin….wait!" Shadin looked over to see that Lilly was still in the water.
"Wow! That was scary." Lilly said.
"Well, it looks like it's just you and me little girl." Shadin said.
"Not good." Nagato said. "She might claim she's ready, but she doesn't stand a chance against a guy like him."
"Lilly and Shadin are the only ones left. That means they have five minutes." Mansin said. "If one of them falls out before time runs out, then that person drops to last place."
"This will be easy." Shadin said as he shot out a blast of dark magic.
"Aww! I could use some help here!" Lilly said as she found herself unable to move.
"Piri! Piri!" Two little figures came and grabbed her arms to pull her out of the way and another person blocked the attack. The ones that saved her were Gemini and Capricorn.
"Are you alright, Lady Lilly?" Capricon asked.
"We got here as fast as we could." Mini said.
"Thanks, but how did you guys get here?" Lilly asked.
"We opened our own gates so we could save you." Gemi said.
"Allow us to handle this." Capricorn said.
"Bring it on." Shadin said as he dared Capricorn to come at him. "I was in the mood for goat meat for dinner tonight." Capricorn swam at Shadin and tried to strike at him, but Shadin was able to avoid each of his attacks. Shadin placed his hand on Capricorn and shot his magic through him and sent Capricorn back to his world.
"Capricorn!" Lilly called out as she was worried he was hurt.
"Now for you!" Shadin said. He fired out a hand of shadows and grabbed a hold of Lilly and started spinning her around with Gemini. Shadin released her and Lilly tried to stay strong and keep in the arena.
"That looked like a rough ride." Mansin said.
"That wasn't fun, but I've got to fight back." Lilly said as she reached for her keys, but she noticed they and Gemini were gone. "What happened to my keys?"
"Looking for these?" Shadin said as he showed he had her keys with him spinning them on his finger.
"Give those back!" Lilly demanded.
"Go get them!" Shadin said as he tossed them straight down. Lilly tried to swim after them, but her keys reached the edge and fell out. If she goes after them now, her team will get last place.
"Not good. Lilly lost her keys. I hope she has another way of fighting back for the next four minutes." Mansin said.
"This isn't good." Syrus said as they were all concerned what was going to happen. "Without her keys, she'll never survive those four minutes."
"Lilly, forget about winning the match! Just get out of there!" Nagato shouted.
"I just need to hold on." Lilly said.
"You should hope so." Lilly looked up and saw Shadin right in front of her and felt trouble. "I'll show you how terrifying I can be." He brought his arm back and struck Lilly right in the gut and she got hit hard.
"Lilly!" All of Fairy Tail shouted. It was horrifying for everyone to see a young girl get struck like that.
"I'm not done yet!" Shadin said as he swam up to her and grabbed her by the neck. Then, they stood like that and Shadin kept assaulting her and showed no mercy. "Now do you understand?" He said as he kept beating her. "We are Griffon Wing! We will do whatever it takes to stand at the top. It doesn't matter if you are a man or a woman, an adult or a child. We show no mercy and crush ANYONE who stands in our way!"
"This is just sick. He's just torturing her!" Carlos said. Shadin gave Lilly a powerful blow and she was heading towards the edge.
"Uh oh. Lilly is heading to the edge." Mansin said.
"Oh no!" Shadin said as he shot out the hand again and grabbed a hold of her. "I'm not done with you, little girl!" He pulled her back to him and kept pounding her around and this was horrifying to everyone.
"That monster!" Natsu said
"Please someone stop him!" Lucy begged.
"Shadin is not lighting up, but since this isn't a knock-out event, all Lilly can do is take it." Mansin said as Shadin kept beating her.
"Stop it!" Nagato shouted. Griffon Wing found this amusing with the Fairy Tail giving them death glares.
"You guys are gonna pay for this." All four of them said. The clock kept ticking until it reached zero.
"That's it. The five minutes is up." Mansin said.
"Oh. I was having so much fun that time got away from me, but I'm not done yet." Shadin said as he continued to hurt poor Lilly. Even Hisui couldn't' stand to watch this anymore. Mansin decided enough was enough.
"That's it! I'm calling the match right here! Griffon Wing will gets first place and Fairy Tail gets second." Mansin said and that got Shadin to stop.
"Fine. This was getting boring anyway." Shadin said as he grabbed Lilly by the neck and held her outside the water like he won a war.
"Lillly isn't moving. Can we get the medics?!" Mansin said.
"Lilly!" The Fairy Tail team called as they all hurried to save her before Shadin did anything worse to her. Poor Lilly was badly beaten and she wasn't moving or doing anything.
"Lilly!" Nagato shouted.
