Look forward to a bad ass fight! I know last chapter was kinda boring so I promise this one will be better! Enjoy.
'Damnit I'm so late!' I thought running up to the monstrous structure the magic games is being held in. I could feel the cobble stone hallways vibrate from the cheering and loud drums. If I was correct I missed the first day and I'll still barely make it in time for the begining of today.
I finally saw the Fairy Tail flag hanging out from a hallway to my left. 'This must be it.'
My eyes adjusted to the dark hallway, as I exited, and my eyes refocused, I was absolutely astounded at the size of the arena. 'This puts any arena on where I came from to shame. There's got to be at least 600,000 people!' I thought impressed.
"Yo Harrison!"
I looked to my left and noticed Gajeel giving me a two finger salute.
"Hows it going?" I asked.
"Keh, great! I cant wait to beat that Salamanders ass! Gehee." He said cracking his knuckles with a wicked smirk.
I looked at him confused. "Arent we supposed to be working as a team?" I asked with a raised brow.
"Not this time."
I turned around and saw Laxus and the rest of the Thunder God Tribe walk in from the hallway I just came from. "Hey guys, long time no see." I greeted.
Laxus and his squad agreed. I looked around quick. "Where's Mira?" I asked.
Laxus smirked.
"Shes fighting after Erza." Laxus shortly explained.
- "Attention ladies and gentlemen! The next game will begin! Contestants please enter the arena!" A short guy with a pumpkin head? announced on the arena field.
I walked over to the raling and saw some faces I didnt know. However I did recognize Erza in her short light purple kimono style armor, if you want to call it that. 'She looks sexy as always' I thought with a stupid look.
- "Here's the game! There are 100 monsters to be deafeated. Of course the more defeated the more powerful they get! Every contestant on the field will get the opportunity to decide how many monsters you want to slay! However.. If you are defeated you lose all the points you've acquired from the monsters you have slayed and it gets added to the winning contestors points! The midget pumpkin head dig in a hat and oulled out a peice of paper.
Erza Scarlet! How many monsters do you dare gamble to slay!?"
"All 100!" Erza declared with determination.
"-Umm, alright! Good luck with that!" The announcer said and dashed out of the arena field. The cheers errupted again, almost causing me to cover my ears.
As the other contestants were leaving I could see them snickering and laughing as if Erza was already a dead mage.
'Dont underestimate Erza you bastards.' I internally seethed. Suddenly the field morphed into a big ass castle, and a lacrima screen appeared, displaying Erza already fighting the monsters inside.
The first monsters to attack were just small fry. But like the Pumpkin said. They are getting tougher. Erza was showing some wear as well, the onslaught was non stop. After another 10 minutes, Erza blew through the roof of the castle and ran across the wall of the castle that leads up to a large circle platform.
The monster counter showed 99 slayed monsters. 'I got a feelin that this last one.. Will be tough...'
- Time skip.
'Holy shit that was one sided! Mirajane kicked that bitches ass!'I internally cheered for the 4th time.
Just then Mira came from the hallway and waved with a kind smile.
"Harrison? When did you get back?" Mirajane asked.
I was about to explain but Mira stepped forward suddenly and started inspecting my cloths. She turned to my backside and tugged the fabric on my legs and shoulders. I quickly retreated. I had an expression that read 'Was I just molested?'
Mirajane smiled, forfeiting her previously puzzled look. "Sorry, your cloths just seemed a little loose. Perhaps you need a new tailor?" She suggested more than asked.
I patted my chest. "Well theres a reason for tha-" -"A naval battle will now commence! Contestants please enter the water!"
After the announcer interrupted me I decided it wasn't really worth explaining, so me and Mira walked over to the railing to inspect the coming fight.
I smirked as I saw Lucy and Juvia jump in the giant sphere of levitating water. 'Juvia definently has the advantage, but. Lucy also has Aquarius who is a water spirit. This should be interesting...' I thought.
The fight started and as I predicted Lucy summoned her water spirit and she and Juvia attacked eachother immediately. Most of the other poor contestants suffered the collateral damage of there attacks colliding. They struggled for a while but then Juvia suddenly lost track of where she was going and simply fell out of the bubble of water.
'Now its just Lucy and this other chick...I sense somthing wrong within her... She should not be expelling any killing intent. What is her problem?' I brooded internally.
Suddenly explosions could be seen in the water. The sudden heat boiled the water instantly.
'This bitch in the blue swim wear is just toying with Lucy!' Lucy tried to leave the water but her attacker stopped her from leaving with another explosion. 'Why arent they stopping this!?' I thought, my hands gripping the railing. The rest of team B did not take kindly to what they are seeing as they too had looks of anger.
I noticed Makarov to the right sitting atop the railing 20 feet away. He looked very troubled.
Lucy's attacker finally stopped her onslaught when she grabbed her by her throat and dropped her out of the water.
Lucy fell to the ground, I then saw Team A jump down to the arena floor and run to Lucy.
They looked enraged at this bitch with a smug smirk on her face. "What is this? Are we going to see a guild fight!? Although we discourage this. Just remember, the first one to swing will be disqualified for the rest of the day!" The announcer in the spectator box informed.
My hands gripped the stone railing so hard it cracked. "Rhitta..." I whispered.
"What the hell do you think your doing!? Why would you do this!?" Natsu yelled enraged at the woman.
"Do you know who you've pissed off?.." Erza added with Malice and her sword drawn.
Lucy laid on the ground with pain on her features, multiple burns and bruises covered her body.
"Its to send a message. That Sabertooth is the best and that it will stay that way. I may have gone a bit overboard though, sorry about that." The woman replied sarcasticly.
Natsu snarled and pulled back his fist.
'SwhoTonkBtooomb!'
Natsu jumped back in suprise when a ginormous golden battle axe intercepted him from finishing his attack.
Erza recognized the axe. "That means!"
"That wont be neccessary Natsu..." I said after landing on Rhittas handle protruding from the ground. "H-Harrison? Were did you come from? More importantly, why would you stop me!? Did you see what she did!?" Natsu questioned enraged.
"Yes I did. We cannot afford to lose a full day of the event. We will show Sabertooth who is the top guild when we win.. Fair and square." I replied with my back to Lucy's attacker.
"As if there's a chance of that happe-"
The woman stopped her sentence when I appeared infront of her instantly, without her seeing me move. She took a few steps back in suprise.
"The names Harrison Wesster. I would also like to know your name before I make a spectacle out of you for everyone here to see." I said, my words growing more haughty as my anger grew. The air surrounding my body was visibly distorted from the heat sunshine emitted.
The woman raised a brow and crossed her arms. "Minerva... Now move aside scum, or do you want to be disqualified? Not that you could hurt me anyway." Minerva said arrogantly.
I outstretched my right hand and Rhitta tenetikally flew into my grasp, then rested it on my shoulder. "We shall see..." I said nothing further.
Moments later Rhitta floated me back up to Fairy Tail B teams seating area. Team A also went back to there respective area with medics hauling Lucy along, healing her with magic to relieve the burns inflicted.
I leaned Rhitta on the railing and sat down on a nearby chair. 'Calm down Harrison... Dont let Sunshine take control..' Although I hid it well, I was struggling to hold back from smashing Minerva into the ground right then and there.
"Thanks for stepping in there. Who knows what would of happened if Natsu actually landed an attack, although I do have a pretty good idea." Laxus thanked while leaning his back against the hallway arch with his arms crossed.
"Attention contestants! Another battle type event will be held after a brief 30 minute intermission! Thank you for coming today and make sure your back in your seats so you dont miss any of the action!" The spectator announcer said through the intercom. The crowd clapped for the multiple performances so far, slowly dying down afterwards.
- First aid -
I looked at Lucy lying in her bed, bandages litering her body with her face contorted in pain. Team A was also silent, the air was tense as if everyone was brooding in there minds a plot to avenge Lucy. Thats what I was doing anyway.
"That's it! I'm going back right now and I'm gonna kick Sabertooths ass!" Natsu raged with flames coming out his mouth.
I grabbed his shoulder before he could leave. "Natsu, you will have to wait your turn. You might even get to fight the next battle. Be patient a little longer." 'So that my patience to not hit you doesn't run out.' I thought after I calmed Natsu.
"Huuuh!? Who says you ge- Guh!" Natsu was cut short of his retort when Erza bonked him into the first aid floor.
"Well you cant say we didnt try Natsu." Erza said amused.
A soft chuckle escaped my throat. I looked at Lucy once more and my previous anger returned. 'We will just this injustice that has happened to you Lucy... You can count on it.'
- Arena -
"I hope you have all returned to your seats because your in for a treat! This year at the Grand magic games, we have a real demon of Zeref that the council has tamed and is letting us borrow for the next battle! The demon is under the councils fail proof supervision so there is nothing to fear!" An audible gasp could be heard from many in the audience.
"A demon of Zeref?!" "Is it really fail proof??" were just a few of the many murmurs among the crowd.
"Heres the deal! Contestant's from every guild will get the oppertunity to fight the demon! You can have as many of your guild mates working together to defeat the demon... IF, the contestant you chose passes the preliminaries. However the more people you have, the less points you will recieve." The announcer continued to explain.
"You can choose not to participate! But if you do, you must send out a contestant to defeat the other contender's on the field competing to fight the demon of Zeref! You can get a maximum of 25 points! If you use 2 members you receive 20 points, use 3 or more and you will get the minimum of 10 points! Better get to planning, because the action starts in 10 minutes!..." The announcer said.
I could barely see from across the huge stadium, Sabertooth was making plans and so were other guilds such as Mermaid Heel and Quattro Puppy.
"Oh by the way! Did we forget to mention that the demon in question has an estimated combat power of 100,000!? Please take that into consideration!" The pumpkin warned.
Laxus was plotting with his thunder god tribe and Gajeel had a contemplative look on his face while Mira just smiled like Mira usually does.
Without warning anyone on team B I jumped from the seating area onto the arena floor, landing softly. Walking up to the midget pumpkin head I told him my plans.
"I would like to enter... By myself.."
"Uuuhh... Are you sure?- Kabo..
"Yes."
"...Alright... Whats your name?- Kabo..
"I'm Harrison Wesster from Fairy Tail team B." I informed.
"Looks like we got our first contestor entering by himself! Harrison Wesster from Fairy Tail B team!" The announcer from atop the spectating room said.
All of Fairy Tail snapped there heads to attention. Some running up to the railing, looking at me from up top.
Makarov looked down in suprise. "What is he thinking doing somthing so reckless? Does he have any idea what a combat power is? Did he not hear the announcer!?"
Mavis looked over at Makarov and giggled at his worries. "You dont have to worry about Harrison.. Afterall, he is stronger than anyone here." She told.
Makarovs eyes went wide. 'Who are you Harrison Wesster? What happened to you during those 7 years?' Makarov thought, turning his attention back to the arena.
A few minutes went by and the contestant's who were gutsy enough to enter, approached the center of the arena.
"Now lets welcome Kagura to the arena from Mermaid Heel!... Oh and whats this!? Orga from Sabertooth has joined the preliminaries!... So far we are looking at a 1vs all!" The announcer said.
I stared down the man from Sabertooth. I have only seen him use black lightning on the magic counter test this morning. 'Although I was hoping Minerva would join the fray I guess I'll just have to suffice with this guy.' I thought internally.
"I'm not to keen on how you treated lady Minerva... Looks like I get to teach you a lesson in the matter..." Orga said, black lightning crackling from his hands.
I chuckled. "You call that bitch a lady? You need to start admiring classier women." I provoked. This elicited a snarl from the brute, along side a death glare.
The pumpkin man told us to seperate so the fight could start.
"Ready?... Set?... FIGHT!"
'Sweat dreams..' I thought as I dashed forward at maximum speed.
'SwhooofBtooooomb!'
In an instant Orga of Sabertooth was pounded into the ground without mercy. He lay unconscious in a crater 3 feet deep.
Kagura looked flustered at my speed. 'Unbelievable... One of Sabertooths strongest members, done in a second...' She thought brows furrowed.
Makarovs jaw dropped, my performance exceeding his expectations. The crowd that previously looked down upon Fairy Tail was now starting to gain a new perspective.
I turned my head to Kagura and she lowered herself into a battle stance. Her white unsheathed Katana pointed at me. 'This is no ordinary mage...' Kagura thought on alert.
"Your not even going to unsheath your weapon? Im insulted" I said playfully with a smirk. My words once again sounding haughty thanks to the sin of pride marked upon me.
"I dont want want any blood to taint this sword... Exluding the man I want to kill someday.." Kagura explained.
My body grew a little bulkier from all the usage of Sunshine. 'I'm going to need Rhitta if I want to stay in control. I thought while outsctretching my right hand.
"Well then, let me reciprocate.. Rhitta." The golden battle axe flew itself high into the air from where I set it in the seating area, and then placed its grip into my grasp.
"I'll give you one chance to leave the arena. Please make the wise choice while im still a feminist." I offered, resting Rhitta on my shoulder.
I saw Kagura didnt falter and took a step forward. I sighed and let some of my magic pressure slip out.
"Hng!" Kagura stopped in her tracks and froze. 'W-What the hell is this!? I cant even move!... This man, is a monster in hiding. I hate to admit it but... I've lost this battle the moment I set foot in the arena..' Kagura thought.
She lowered her sword, her legs and arms shaking slightly from the pressure. "Very well. I will take you up on your offer... I will take my leave." Kagura said through gritted teeth. Not wanting to admit she lost.
"What is this!? Kagura has forfeited the match!! Harrison from Fairy Tail B team is the winner!!" The announcer said.
The audience booed at the uneventful performance. "Now now, dont be that way! Bring out the demon! Estarossa!" The pumpkin hollered through his microphone.
A tank like magic powered vehicle slowly drove into the arena while medics pulled Orga out of the crater I made for him.
Suddenly purple ruines covered the whole diameter of the battle arena, leaving the spectators safe and sound on the other side.
A gate slowly opened up on the vehicle, a few moments later out walked a man about 6,2 with white hair, Dead black eyes, a high collar purple coat, silver gauntlets on both arms and black pants with metal plated boots.
He stopped when he left the vehicle, and then the moving jail cell left the arena much faster than it came. The pumpkin man fled the arena as well.
The man suprisingly had a genuine smile on his face. I walked up to him slowly, my form growing little by little causing my cloths to be more form fitting. I finally stopped inches away from his face cracking the ground with my last step.
He looked up at me with that same smile.
"It seems you do not fear me... There's a first for everything." He said.
"Why should I? I only pity those who are weaker than myself." I replied haughtily.
He eye smiled with a grin. "Ya know, your a pretty interesting guy..." He said with cheer.
I eye smiled as well. "Of course "
'Fwoopbooom!' In an instant he gave me an uppercut that not even I expected.
He then appeared above me and punched me square in the jaw, causing me to crash into the ground making a crater. Estarossa landed softly infront of me. Before I could get up he grabbed the front of my Gi and kicked me in the stomach, high into the air.
He followed up by jumping and kicking me in the chest which hurled me into the border of the barrier .
I slid down to the floor on my ass, Rhitta still held tightly in my grasp, my back leaned against the wall, my head was downcast, shadowing my eyes.
'I cant believe Harrison thought he could do this by himself... I want to believe in him but. Its just so reckless. I dont even think Natsu, Gray and I could defeat him together.' Erza thought, analyzing the fight.
Estarossa walked up to me with a smug grin. He stopped his assault when a bright light came into the right side of his peripheral vision. He barely had time to raise his guard when a golden metal plated fist went through the bright light.
My punch slid him back 10 feet. Now back on my feet I saw he had blocked.
"Heh too bad... Uuh!" Estarossa suddenly fell to one knee, his face angled to the ground.
"My my, Did you find a coin or somthing? Is it heads or tails?" I mocked.
"What is this!? Estarossa was brought to his knees from just one punch! With his guard up at that! The announcer said.
Estarossa started chuckling as he got back up to his feet. A black hole appeared in the middle of his chest and Estarossa pulled out a large purple and silver wavy bladed dagger.
"The outside world sure is interesting. Finally, I've found someone I dont have to hold back on." Estarossa said, gaining a more serious stance.
"How presumptuous.." I slammed Rhitta vertically in an attempt to sever his arm.
'SwoooTonk!'
Estarossa simply rotated his wrist and moved the pointed the blade to his left.
Blood gushed out of my right shoulder. Right where I had attempted to cut him.
"You seemed suprised... That is my ability. I can counter any physical attack with more than double the power." Estarossa explained.
"Oh? So thats why I felt some pain. As expected of myself." I said proudly.
"Estarossa laughed. "Your so proud and hilarious! I want to k ow your name before I kill you."
"Harrison.. Burn it into your memory before you die." I replied. We stared eachother down for a few more moment's.
"Well then, let me repay the favor..." I outstretched my left palm infront of me and activated my magic, a sun 3 feet in diameter floated in my palm.
"Let me warn you... I believe no demon of Zeref should be left alive... You will not have a normal death."
'Fwoooboom!'
Estarossa's eyes widened in suprise as he suddenly found himself staring at the sky.
I used Rhitta to fly me above Estarossa who was high in the air. He looked at me when I was in his field of vision.
"Cruel Sun.." Did I not tell you? That you would not have a normal death?"
I dropped the raging mass of heat and it collided with the demon, pushing him into the ground. I kept my left hand out stretched and curled my fingers slightly.
"Pride Flare.."
'ShwfoBtoooomb!!'
My sun exploded to such an extent that everything inside the barrier was unseen. The front rows of the crowd fell backwards off the bleachers from the suprise explosion.
Several moments later I walked along the arena floor searching for Estarossa. Finally The dust cleared and we stood facing eachother once more. The demon seemed to he heavily damaged. His cloths were ripped and his gauntless were now gone, not to mention the severe burns on his body.
"That was a good attack I really felt it. If I had deployed my darkness a moment too late I would taken some serious damage." Estarossa complimented. A black cloud of energy covered his form, when he was revealed he was completely healed.
"Now, shall we end this?" He said.
"On only that we agree." I replied, making another sun in my palm.
Estarossa outstretched his arm. "Black out."
Suddenly darkness made its way up my arm and covered my sun.
"Hmm?" I looked up at the darkness covering Sunshine.
"Your mine!" Estarossa charged me, dagger prepped for attack.
I sighed. "And what is that supposed to accomplish?" I brought Rhitta down in a slash, in an attempt to cut the demon in half.
'ShwooosTonk!'
"Full counter!"
"Uuh!"
'Btooooomb!'
I had made a grave error. Estarossa used his Full Counter and not only used my slash, but my magic I held in my hand against me.
Blood gushed from my chest and black burn marks dusted my chest.
"I can counter any physical attack you throw at me. And with my Magic being an affinity of darkness I'm at the advantage." Estarossa assumed, leaving his battle stance.
The sun came out from the cloud it was under and shone brightly upon my back, the tattoo of the lion showing proudly.
'Ssswiink.'
Estarossa took a few steps back when his chest gushed blood from a deep horizontal gash.
'Wha? I didnt even see him attack?!' Estarossa thought.
'Fwooohm.'
I pumped more magic into my sun, swallowing up the darkness previously enshrouded it. My rage built up at his presumpsuitness. My body steamed as I grew taller and my voice deeper, every feature becoming more rigid and manly.
'Who the fuck is this man!? His Combat level is growing even higher than before!' Estarossa thought as he looked upon the giant 12 foot man standing infront of him.
"Your speck of darkness... Swallowed up MY sun?... Who decided that?.."
I enlarged my sun into a 10 foot diameter.
"My mighty attacks will not reach you?.. And who decided that?"
"Cruel sun..."
"I am the one... Who decides.." I lifted my chin and closed my eyes. I then looked at him in anger.
"Begone. Hhhng!" I thrusted my finger towards him, smashing my sun into his form lifting him into the air.
"Harri...sooooon!" Estarossa screamed as he was pushed by the blazing sun.
Once the ball of flames was a speck In the sky I closed my fist.
"Super... Nova.."
'BTOOOOOOMB!!'
The explosion went for miles, covering the literal sun, causing a shadow that covered a quarter of Fiore. After a few moments the hot air gushed down upon the earth blowing dust and litter everywere. Everyone in the stadium took cover, excluding the mages.
Makarovs eyes buldged out of his head. 'Unbelievable... What magic power.' He thought.
Erza covered her eyes with a forearm. 'To think you were this strong Harrison. I'm ashamed I doubted you.' Erza reprimanded internally.
I turned to Sabertooths seating area and gave them a 'Your next' look.
'I may have messed with the wrong guy.' Minerva thought, chewing the tips of the gloves on her hands.
I walked back to the exit, my form shrinking and my cloths regenerating. A grim expression on my face.
'Cmon Harrison, control it!' I struggled to contain Sunshine. I felt like I would snap at any moment. I finally reached the shadows of the exit hallway and collapsed to my knees breathing heavily in concentration.
"W-What a show! Harrison Wesster of Fairy Tail team B... Wins!"
Whooooaaa. What a long chapter. Someone suggested that I should work on Erza's relationship with Harrison... Well I was hoping to get some drama unrequited love/jealously goodies in there before that happens. Althought next chapter will have some more fluff. SPIN THE BOTTLE TIME!
Please review!
