07 1/2 - Some Guilds Hide in the Dark
...Later That Night in a Dark Alleyway
"So," A burley, rough voice came from a man with brown hair, "Were your idiots smart enough to get past the preliminary round, Jose?"
"You're one to talk Ivan, last I heard your guild-mates barely made it through to the next round," Replied the voice of a man with dark black, and a devilish smile.
"Whatever," The man with brown hair muttered, "Just tell me you were smart enough to make sure that they won't announce us until tomorrow,"
"Have you heard our guild's name yet?" The man, still smiling for some odd reason, replied.
The man known as 'Ivan' chuckled humorlessly, "Don't test me Jose, we both know my guild, though it may have been disbanded, is far more superior to yours,"
"We'll see about that Ivan," Jose responded coldly, his smile now gone, "Just because you were some kind of big shot last time Fairy Tail participated in these pathetic games, don't forget that your guild was taken down by one single man, your son—"
Ivan immediately pushed Jose against the wall, and placed is one of is large hands around Jose's neck, "Say one more thing about my son, and it will be the last word you ever say, got it?"
Jose, who was now showing fear in his eyes nodded his head rapidly. However, the second Ivan released his hand the tides were turned; now Jose had Ivan pressed against a wall with a murderous look in his eyes, "You might have the scavenger abilities of a raven, but now let me tell you something; it is nowhere near the swiftness of a phantom. Don't mess with me Ivan,"
With that Jose released his hold on Ivan, hoping that Ivan wouldn't retaliate.
Surprisingly, Ivan just laughed, "Oh Jose, we both know that in a one-on-one battle I would beat you," Then almost immediately, Ivan sobered up, "You don't—mess—with—me, or you will be done for,"
Jose, deciding to leave it where it was nodded and said, "May the best dark guild win," And then began to walk away, but not before Ivan called behind him.
"Don't forget the real prize!" Ivan shouted.
At that Jose turned around, and once again his devilish smile was back, "I don't see how I could forget. Trust me, this will be Fairy Tail's last stand," And with that he was gone, almost as if he really were a phantom.
"I hope you're ready old man, because this year. I won't take it so easy on you," Ivan said, before he too, walked away disappearing into the darkness.
