Lucy's P.O.V.
As I was sitting in my room resting I smelled Gray come in.
"What do you want Gray?" I asked him, not looking up from my book.
"Did you forget that you and Natsu are fighting Erza today." Gray stated like it was obvious.
"Oh shit, I forgot. Stella let's go it's my fight with Erza today." I yelled as I grabbed my coat and my exceed came flying after me, Gray following closing the door behind us as we left.
Back at the guild
Lucy's P.O.V.
Once I got to the guild, I walked over to Natsu.
"So who is going first?" I asked, excited.
"I want to go first." Natsu replied.
I knew he was going to say that.
"Okay." I said, thinking smartly as Erza will show me her moves and that puts me at a advantage.
"Natsu, are you ready!" Erza yelled to him, walking through the crowd.
"Aye I was born ready." Natsu said lighting his fist on fire.
Oh he is cute when he is all fired up.
"Ready, set and fight." Master yelled while we were placing bets.
"Fire Dragon Iron Fist!" Natsu yelled as he launched a fiery punch at Erza.
"Flame Empress Armor!" Erza whispered, her changing speed has increased.
"What." Everyone gasped, must be a new armor.
"Natsu your flames won't work on me with my Flame Empress armor." Erza said calmly. She is so going to win.
"Really well let's see shall we."
"Hey gramps, is it cheating if I think of a strategy now and tell my spirits." I whispered to Makarov.
"No my child it is just tactics after all." Gramps said, winking at me. I knew what that meant.
"Okay." I said and went back to watch the fight.
"Come on Natsu I thought you trained." Erza taunted.
Distracted, Natsu got hit in the back of his neck by Erza in her speed armor and she won, but before I could fight her two council members came towards us.
"Lucy Heartfilla." They said and I cringed at the last name I seriously have to legally change it. "And Erza Scarlet you are hereby under arrest for fighting another guild and destruction of property." The magic council goon said.
"Ugh, but no restraints I do not need my magic to blow up thank you." I said, irritated.
"Why will it blow up." The council lackey asked.
"Any form of star magic cannot be contained without being able to release some of it see." I said, making a small ball in my hand and making it compact so it has nowhere to go and it makes a small firework.
"Oh, come with me then." The councilman said nervously.
At the council still Lucy's P.O.V.
"So what have we done exactly?" I asked, bored.
"The council will decide what you are guilty of." The Rune Knight said.
"Lu, Siegrain is here." Erza said, sticking close to me.
"Oh council member Siegrain sir." The knight said.
"Well hello Erza Scarlet and Lucy Heart." Siegrain said.
"Don't call me Lucy Heartfilla, call me Lucy Oran." I interrupted him, lord we need to get that legally changed.
"Sorry, my apologies." He said sarcastically.
"I am incredibly sorry, but the trial is about to start." He told us.
"Let's go I have a plan." I whispered to Erza.
She smiled knowing this will be quick as we walk through the doors we see all the holograms for the council.
"This trial has hereby started Lucy Heart I mean Oran and Erza Scarlet, can you take the defendant stand." The chairman said.
"Well first I know what you are going to say and I have an offer I know you won't refuse you let us go and I won't make it public that the council didn't destroy Lullaby and I did, wait Erza don't they still owe me for that." I explain, smirking.
"Yes you are right Lu they do still owe you." Erza answered highly.
"How about you let us go completely free and get off Fairy Tail's back and that is what I am owed so it's fair come on Erza we are leaving. Oh and Natsu, don't you dare run in here!" I said, yelling the last part at Natsu.
"Lu, have I ever told you that you are amazing." Erza laughed.
"A few times I guess." I joked.
"Let's get back to the guild." Erza suggested.
No one's P.O.V (a short time earlier)
"Let me out now!" Natsu yelled.
"Sorry Natsu but I can't do that you will run after Lucy and Erza." Mira said kindly hiding a little bit of worry.
"Mira let me go please!" He yelled loudly.
"Natsu I turned you into a lizard and if I let you out the spell will wear off and you will go running off and storm the council." Makarov said, sitting on the balcony.
"Sorry Natsu hic we are not hic allowed to let you hic go." Cana said, banging her arm on table big mistake because the glass fell off the table and what happened next shocked everyone Macao appeared in the smoke.
"Oh shit Natsu tricked us, we are in big trouble." Makarov said, his head in his hands.
Present time Lucy's P.O.V.
"Natsu you are so dead." Erza smirked as we walked through the door.
"Natsu Dragneel what have you done!" Makarov yelled as we walked through the door.
"I can explain!" I yelled.
"Then explain please?" Mira asked.
"Basically I used my favor I had with the council to get us out of prison and off Fairy Tail's back for a while then I smelled cinnamon and bonfire which is Natsu's scent and yelled at him to stand still and not to do anything and because dragons are obedient he did what I said." I explained.
"Thank god that is how it happened." Gramps sweat dropped.
"We were worried Natsu stormed the Magic Council looking for you." Mira laughed.
"Now with all that over Erza our fight didn't end, let's do this." Natsu yelled and ran at Erza full speed, but Erza used his speed against him and body slammed him behind her.
"Okay so Natsu is out how are we splitting the winnings."
"I'm going home to rest up for tomorrow's fight with Lucy." Erza said seriously.
"See you tomorrow and Erza bring it on." I yelled to everyone with my sickly sweet smile. The same smile I use before I win fights this will be fun, some of them shivered as I left to go to my apartment Happy and Stella grabbing me and Natsu as I asked her to do so I have more energy for tomorrow's fight.
Next day Erza's P.O.V
I woke up early which isn't normal and got ready, I put all my strongest armor in my storage dimension.
"Look at me the great Titania is nervous." I said to myself, only one reason comes to mind. My fight with Lucy, she is both strong and smart.
With Lucy Lucy's P.O.V
I woke up on time which is weird normally I wake up late.
"Look at me the great celestial princess nervous." I said mocking myself knowing Erza she is probably up as well having the same conversation to herself as I am she is really strong so I have to be smart.
"Open Gate of the Maiden, Virgo." I chanted.
"Hello princess what can I do for you, punishment." Virgo said, being the normal her.
"No punishment Virgo, but can you get me celestial candy please I didn't get the chance to eat starlight last night." I quickly replied.
"Yes princess I will be back in a moment." Virgo said, bowing then disappearing and reappearing with my request and disappeared again oh she is a strange spirit but I love her like I love all of them as I thought that I felt all my keys glow with happiness and Loke's glow the brightest of course.
"Stella wake up and get ready it is my fight day." I told my golden exceed she opened her eyes and started to get ready as soon as she finished and had breakfast we left.
At the guild Erza's P.O.V.
I got to the guild first and went to Mira for my breakfast Lucy probably had hers in her apartment.
"Hey Mira can I have a slice of strawberry cake and a vanilla milkshake." I asked my former rival.
"Sure Erza that will be 5000 jewels please." Mira said kindly, I gave her the money and she went to prepare my breakfast as I turned around I saw Lucy she and Stella sat with Levy probably talking about books and the fight that was about to happen Mira came back with my food and went off to serve and talk to others I ate my food quickly and went up to Lucy.
"You ready to fight starry." I said to her.
"You bet Scarlet master we are fighting now I know you people want to see us fight right Scarlet?" Lucy boasted everyone hurried outside.
"You are going down starry." I replied back, I am not normally this excited about a battle but oh well.
Lucy's P.O.V.
After everyone gathered and placed their bets master explained the rules.
"Now I want a fair fight you hear me now fight." Gramps yelled.
"Heaven's Wheel 20 Blade formation dance my blades!" Erza yelled as her swords came flying at me.
"Virgo Star Dress." I whispered so no one heard and tunneled quietly underground when the smoke cleared I heard nothing apart from Erza's surprise when I was not there I tracked where she was and changed Virgo's star dress to Leo's.
"Regulus Roar!" I roared combining Leo's and my dragon slayer magic I came flying from underground and saw a slightly bruised and shocked Erza.
"Wow Lu-chan is so strong and smart right you two." I could hear Levy say to Jet and Droy.
"That is my girl." Natsu whispered.
"Lucy I must say I did not see that coming." Erza said.
"I know right, that was the first time I used it." I said as I avoided Erza's swords toying with her a little bit.
"Your speed has increased Lucy." Erza said, smiling.
I popped a celestial candy into my mouth.
"It isn't smart eating in the middle of battle." Erza mocked as she tried to attack me again.
"You are wrong actually I am eating celestial rock candy." I mocked her after finishing the sweet I smirked this stuff is good I'm full again.
"Let's get serious shall we." Erza said.
"Okay let's dance Celestial Dragon Roar!" I roared. She used an armor to stop my attack but she was still pushed back a lot.
"Fire Empress Flaming Sword!" Erza yelled, requipping into the Flame Empress armor. She managed to graze my skin with her sword but there was no real damage.
"This is harder then I expected." Erza said bruised and breathing a bit faster.
"I can always end this now if you want." I teased her.
"Not a chance in hell." Was all Erza said as she changed into a new armor that was purple.
"New armor interesting Celestial Dragon Wing Attack!" I yelled as I attacked her.
"This is turning into a cat and mouse game." Erza stated.
"Fine Celestial Dragon Wings and Sagittarius Star Dress!" I yelled as a bow appeared in my hand and wings and arrows on my back.
"What is she planning?" Gray asked himself out loud.
"Type 4 arrows." I whispered as arrows appeared and I fired 3 purple ones.
One hit Erza's left arm, another hit her foot and the last one missed her.
"What are those arrows." Erza choked out.
"They have a sedative laced on the tip I shot at places where it can be delivered to your blood fast, I got the idea from one of your old attacks." I explain.
After that Erza passed out and I won. People who bet on Erza like Wakaba and Macao were really unhappy.
"Is she okay?" Gray asked me once he reached me.
"Yeah she is fine once we get to the med bay I will heal her and remove the sedative from her system. She will wake up about 30 minutes to an hour after that." I explained.
"I am taking Erza to the med bay let's go Stella after I collect my winnings from yesterday." I told my golden exceed.
"Okay Lu." She said and I picked up Erza and my wings disappeared.
One hour later
Erza's P.O.V.
"Where am I." I said out loud.
"You are in the med bay I beat you." Lucy spoke.
"How did you beat me?" I asked, a bit out of it.
"I shot you with a special type of arrow that makes my opponent fall unconscious for about 30 minutes to an hour." Lucy explained.
"Interesting attack but I swear you only had Sagittarius for a little while." I replied.
"I know I have got a mental connection to all my spirits so he told me how to use his star dress and how to make special arrows." Lu pointed out.
"I feel bad for every poor sob who bet against you Natsu is probably very happy." I told her.
"He is he, Levy and Gray are sharing the money between all of us I know betting doesn't work that way but if I am being bet on I am getting some money out of it." Lucy laughed.
"You are so right I should do that go down and get your money I am fine you have healed all my injuries." I pointed out as I kindly asked her to leave and she left.
"God I am so lucky to have a little sister like Lucy even if she isn't biologically related to me." I thought out loud.
"Thanks Erza." I heard Lucy yell up the stairs damn it dragon hearing.
