As soon as the bell rang for lunch, Victoria said, "That was really fun."
Natsu said, "Not for me."
Erza said, "A let down if you ask me."
Wendy said, "I was looking for more of a fight."
Lucy said, "It seems that we overestimated them."
Natsu said, "But, it is a start."
Lucy said, "Agreed."
Erza said, "With every loss, they get stronger."
Wendy said, "And that is a good reason to fight."
Erza said, "We are fighters."
Natsu said, "And we are magicians."
Lucy said, "And we don't quit until we're put down."
Wendy said, "That's how we roll."
Victoria said, "I have no idea what you are talking about, but ok. Let's head to the cafeteria and get something to eat."
They agreed and walked away from the arena and then Yuria asked, "Are we really that weak to you four?"
Marcus looked at them and then Natsu smiled and answered, "Not at all. You gave it your all and we responded to that. You are pretty strong. I do hope that we fight again."
Victoria heard that and then said, "That is completely the opposite of what you just said."
Erza said, "We change our minds quickly."
Lucy said, "Like I said, those two are complete idiots."
Wendy said, "And we're the smart ones. The fight was great. Yet, you must get stronger for future battles."
Rachel said, "So that's what you meant."
Mike said, "Well now, you five are amazingly strong. I didn't expect that."
Charles said, "Well, it is time for lunch. See you around kids."
Natsu looked at them and then Erza said, "See you around."
As soon as they reached the cafeteria, they looked at how big it was and then said, "Woah, this place is bigger than I thought. It could hold a lot of people in here. Yep."
Victoria said, "This place is always crowded. So I always take my lunch outside and eat with nature. It's the best way to eat."
Natsu looked around and saw all of the good food and then Erza said, "Let's go."
They took off to get their own food and then walked outside. As soon as they got to Victoria's dining spot, they sat down and put a cloth down on the ground for them to sit and place their food down on. Victoria said, "This place is best for me. The school is a big place. And there isn't much that we can do about that. The Magic Branch is bigger than the regular branch due to the destructive power of magic. So, that is one of the main reasons why it is bigger than the regular branch."
Natsu said, "I see. So, how long is a school year?"
Victoria answered, "About 10 months."
Erza said, "You like to listen to nature while eating."
Victoria answered, "Yes. Nature is a beautiful place. And it holds lots of mysteries. Just a couple years ago, there was a mystery that needed to get solved, but didn't. I would like to solve these mysteries. And people don't like that fact. And would come after my life just because of that. I honestly can't see why they would want to hurt someone. But you know me, I gotta risk it all for my own pleasure."
They smiled and then in an instant, their smiles disappeared as a man appeared out of nowhere sending flames at them. The five of them jumped back and then their food and cloth were burnt to a crisp. Victoria saw that and said, "That was my mom's favorite cloth. She's going to kill me."
Natsu looked at the man and then said, "Sir, you made a huge mistake."
The man looked at Victoria and then said, "Victoria E. Atlas, you are going to die here."
Erza said, "She wasn't kidding."
Wendy said, "We noticed that."
Lucy said, "Well now, I guess that it is time for us to help her out."
Victoria heard that and then asked, "What are you planning on doing to help me out? These guys are the real deal."
The Goddess that sent them there said to Natsu only, "I forgot to mention this, but I gave you a little extra power boost. You can turn into a Dragon whenever you want. Also, your motion sickness doesn't exist anymore. Please do enjoy your time in this universe."
Natsu said to himself, "Thank you God."
She said, "No problem."
