"They won't look at the cars...lu" chan was in awe as she walks out of car
"That was the idea..." lucy winks but then covers her face "such a bad idea...I should've worn jeans"
The illusion neck black dress was sticking to all her curves, a look they never saw on her
"No...you actually look good. You look expensive actually" Sting scratches his head
"Uh, princess protection project no.10?" Levy folds her hand
"Right this way, we have the place cleared" chan says, one hand on his ear while the other stays out to guard
Standing on the high stands of the arena, they wait and listen as the tiny voice safety announcements were being made.
The light go black, the rings on their fingers glowing in different colors; the spectators howling whistling and calling out
A loud siren and a roar of engines were heard
Lucy could feel the blood rush, the way the cars were speeding infornt of them but it was too dark to see
She leans closer over the railing, the vibrations carried from the asphalt and the very slight winds
And a few minutes in, the lights turn on one by one from the starting line
The different cars getting their spotlight for a second, a scream with other audience from sting at a gold car, a whistle from chan at a black car with levy
The end of the line had a red stingray, which was what caught Lucy's eyes out of all. Turning her body to face it more to have a clean look
Bright red, stickers, leather gloves...She lists out whatever she could see and squints to see more
"That's new..."
"New?" Lucy turns to chan
"Yeah, the game changed just an hour ago" sting starts "someone bet money that crossed the bar, that's why we have the big guys"
"Most of them are familiar but the red one isn't" sting adds "he must be the bet"
"Must be lunatic, new driver choosing the last spot? Fucking silver spoons" someone behind them curses
"Or try not jumping into conclusions?" Sting answers back to him
His friends give him faces of shock and confusion
"What?"
Lucy gives him a thumbs up
Laughing away, they focus back to the race.
A white haired woman, dressed in a short frilled red frock making her way to the centre with a flag
Twirling around in the centre, she faced the crowd
"To everyone who is present here, brace yourself for tonight's match" her hair was slick back, ears adorned by jewels of purple
"She is cute"
"Dont be fooled, she is the devil...Mira" sting says almost fascinated by the lady infront
"Got his car taken, has a debt to pay and almost got jailed...?" Chan looks at sting for the last part to confirm, he nods
"His mistake?" Levy speaks up "Broke rules?"
"Fairies rule the racing world, they keep things as clean as possible"
Lucy was fascinated at this point, the way the whole place was exciting her ever since she entered
It made her curious wanting to hear more
"When will the next matche be?"
"Eveyday..."
"No...the one outside this" Lucy looks at Sting with a smile, eyes wide
"Place your bets! It's a special day, have fun and get drunk" Mira speaks louder
Lucy look away distracted but sting couldn't shake off the look Lucy gave him
And by how the others reacted, they didn't hear what she said
Is she crazy? he thinks slapping his cheeks, leaning over the railings
Mira swings the flag once, the engines roar to life
Each car giving their own signature sound, making the crowd go wild.
One more swing of the flag and the cars were ready to go, the smoke of the tires as they skid against the road, some of the drivers shouting out of their windows
"Fuck" the expression of mira changed to a dark demour as she slammed the flag on the ground instead of swinging
Blink of the eye and the cars disappeared leaving Mira with the dress flying
.

.
Faster, faster...more...more
A grin that was wild and free as he pushes past the cars on the road.
He was enjoying it not a thought about winning or losing, just the feeling of the riding the vehicle
One more lap, just one more?
He sighs, hands tightening on the gear looking at the 3 cars before him
"Sorry boys" he says
The noise of humans went silent, Mira and her little team came out of the stands
The driver of each car clicked their tongues, their nitro already empty to even try
The red stingray now drives the few meters away from the lot, lone and grand shinning in the huge lights of the arena
The flag waves down
he won
He calms his roaring engine by going down another lap, slow and relaxing. Looking at the people who bad scowls on their face
He laughs, his sharp tooth poking out
His cocky attitude just rose seeing the drivers of the top cars block his path
He stops, dropping all emotion and stepping out
They stay silent, the tension rising as no one talks and the arena getting empty slowly regretting the bets placed
"Fuck off, dragneel" a brave one, or should I say the one who can speak against him
He chuckles, then stopping himself. Lips held between his teeth
"Stop it gray, I allowed the game" Mira says "You changed your car, what's his name?"
"He doe-"
He was cut off, a scream from behind and above him
"Hey! Hey fireball!"
He raises his brows, seeing all the eyes towards the screaming female
A foot stepping back to turns partly; head titling eyes immediately finding her
"You were awesome! The best!" She jumps up and down
"Fireball?" He repeats
The blonde girl was happy passing on her feelings to the winner, forgetting all the attention she was receiving
