Once again, sorry for the confusion last chapter. If you haven't re-read it, re-read it first.
Chapter TWENTY EIGHT
The stadium was full with people who had come to watch the Grand Magic games.
Soon, Mato appeared and began the introduction. The audience waited impatiently and finally, Mato began to introduce the eight guilds. One by one, the guilds stepped into audience view.
"In eighth place, we have Rocker, Jager, Nobarly, Warcry and Bacchus Groh from Quatro Cerberus!"
"In seventh place, we have Kagura Mikazuchi, Beth Vanderwood, Risely Law, Millianna and Arana Web from Mermain Heel!"
"In sixth place, we have Ichiya Vandalay Kotobuki, Hibiki Lates, Ren Akatsuki, Eve Tearm and Jenny Realight from Blue Pegusus!" Everywhere, girls could be heard screaming, while others fainted.
"In fifth place, we have one of the wizard saints, Jura Neekis and his guildmates, Lyon Vastia, Yukka Suzuki, Toby Horhorta and Chelia Blendy from Lamia Scale!"
"In fourth place, we have, once again, who has entered two teams, Natsu Dragneel, Gray Fullbuster, Erza Scarlet, Lisanna Strauss and Elfman Strauss from Fairy tail team A!"
"In third place, we have strongest guild till Fairy tail's return, Orga Nanagear, Yukino Aguria and Minerva Orlando. As well as former Oracion Seis and Grimore Heart members, Angel and Rustyrose from Saber tooth!"
"In second place, we have the winners of the last years Grand Magic games, Mira Jane Strauss, Juvia Lockser, Freed Justine, Laxus Dreyar and Gajeel Redfox from Fairy tail team B!"
This surprised everyone. If all the powerful guilds had ranked second place to eighth place, who occupied first?
"Wow, first place is held by a recently created guild!" Mato announced.
"This is an interesting bunch. In first place, we have former Oracion Seis member, Cobra, former twin Dragons of Sabertooth, Sting Eucliffe and Rogue Cheney. Finally, said that no one knows their true identity, but goes by the names, Reaper and Valkyrie di Daemon, from Grim Requiem!"
This shocked Fairy tail. "Wasn't 'di Daemon' the name of Lucy's spirit?" Levy asked.
"The first game is..." The question marks on the game board simmered, and the word 'Monster Tag' appeared.
"First, let me explain." Mato said. He clapped, and something that looked like a huge park appeared. It was completed with lots of trees and a few small lakes.
"This game is pretty simple." He said. "As the name hints, the players will be playing tag." He clapped his hands and a hologram image of a monster appeared. "The monster is 'it'. If you collapse onto the ground and don't get up for three seconds, you count as 'out', and you are out of the whole game." He said. "You can also attack others. The three seconds rule apply then."
"As long as you get up within three seconds, you are still in the game." He said. "If not, you will be teleported out of the game." He stated. "Now, please choose the competitors."
At the Grim Requiem stand, Rogue was narrowing his eyes thoughtfully. "Angel and Rustyrose are Lite's contractors, right?"
Valkyrie nodded.
"Why did they join Sabertooth?" Rogue asked.
"She says its probably because Lite want's to take advantage of Sabertooth's rivalry towards Fairy tail." Valkyrie said. "But apart from Angel and Rustyrose, he's only recruited Yukino."
Rogue nodded.
Sting was clenching his fists in annoyance. "Why can't we start with a battle?" He asked. "Then we can kick Lite's ass."
Cobra shrug. "Cause ordering the events like this would raise tension and keep the audience's attention." He said. "Besides that, who are we going to send?" He glanced at 'Reaper' and 'Valkyrie', who were slowly lowered their hoods. "I vote either Jellal or Lucy."
Rogue nodded in agreement. "I think Jellal should go." He said.
"Yeah. If I remember correctly, you know how to combine Meteor and Black Carpet, right?" Cobra asked. "It's a game of tag. Speed is essential."
Jellal nodded with a smirk plastered onto his face. "What do you think, Lucy?"
Lucy shrug. "I don't mind." She shrug. "You should go. Just don't use meteor." She said. "It would blow our cover."
Jellal nodded.
They could hear Mato telling the competitors to come down. Jellal pulled up his cloak and Lucy tossed him a black key.
"Good luck." She said. Jellal nodded then turned and jumped down. When his feet hit the ground, he glanced at the Grim Requiem audience stands, where only a handful of people could be seen. Scratch that, there were only two people there. Wendy and Midnight, both wearing hoods to shield themselves from the curious gazes shot at them from the Fairy tail stand.
Jellal found it amusing that out of all people, Midnight seemed to like Wendy and Darque the most. He seemed to like spoiling them, which was funny to watch considering the fact that he never said much.
"From Blue Pegasus, we have Ichiya Vandalay Kotobuki!" Groans were heard.
"From Fairy tail B, we have Freed Justine."
"From Sabertooth, we have Rustyrose." The audience fell into a unsure applause. Not much was known about him.
"From Fairy tail A, we have Lisanna Strauss."
"From Lamia Scale, we have Chelia Blendy."
"From Mermaid heel, we have Millianna."
"From Grim Requiem, we have Reaper di Daemon."
"And from Quatro Cerebus, we have Rocker."
All the competitors disappeared into the park.
One of the gates opened and the monster shown on the hologram appeared. It looked like a smaller, wingless version of a wyvern with blade like
arms.
Mato's signal to start was nearly drowned out by the audience as they cheered. At Mato's signal, the monster's metallic eyes turned red and it roared to life.
Reaper was the first to move, jumping back so that he was far away from the others.
The monster moved towards the mage closest to it, Lisanna. Lisanna quickly transformed her arms into wings and jumped into the air. The monster swung it's arms and the blades flew forwards. Lisanna yet out a yelp and just barely managed to dodge. The blades spun and re-attached itself to the monster's arms.
Lisanna landed on the ground and was instantly attacked by Millianna.
The monster turned to Rustyrose, who had summoned a cannon. There was a huge bang and dust rose into the air. When the dust settled, people could see that a blue shield had appeared in front of the monster. Mato's voice rang out.
"Oh, sorry, I forgot to tell you that you cannot attack the monster." He said. "Once you are the last one standing, the shield will deactivate. If you can defeat the monster, you will earn an extra five points. However, if you are defeated, you will be placed in last place." He said. "If you don't want to, just say so."
Rustyrose cursed. "Tell us that earlier." He growled. His complaint was drowned out by the audience.
How was that?
