Chapter Five: Let the Games Begin
I yawn tiredly, rubbing the sleepiness out of my eyes. I stood between my brother and Juvia waiting for our turn to step out.
"I wonder who's participating?" I question, stretching out.
"While, we know for sure Salamander and his group made it." Gajeel mutter grumpily.
"NOW FOR OUR SECOND PLACE TEAM!" the announcer scream excited.
"Everyone ready?" Laxus asked bored.
We all stood close together, Laxus snap his fingers and lightning wrap around us teleporting us out to the main arena. I look at the bright gold shield of lightning with the Fairy Tail insignia. I grin happily looking at our flashy entrance we thought of. We all stood proudly at placing second as Fairy Tail team B.
"What the hell?!" I suddenly hear Natsu scream outrage, his eyeballs popping out of his sockets. "Laxus! Gajeel! June!"
"Hey Natsu!" I wave happily walking towards them with a huge grin.
I stood beside Erza, smirking, crossing my arms slyly.
"Huh, what's this Erza, 8th place?" I snicker, my smirk not leaving my lips.
"June." Erza stutter surprise, her eyes wide. "You guys are participating too?!" Erza demands shock, narrowing her eyes at me.
"Well rival, let the better woman win." I smirk excitedly.
She then smirks back just as happily.
"Agreed."
"NOW FOR OUR FIRST PLACE TEAM!" A loud voice echo.
I glance around checking out the other guilds who made it through. I notice a couple of familiar faces and others that I didn't. I suddenly stop, frozen in my spot, my blue gray eyes staring into a carbon copy of mine.
I gasp shakily, "Impossible." I whisper disbelief.
"What's wrong?" I hear Laxus question me concern.
I just kept staring at the man standing a couple of feet away from us with another guild.
"What the fuck." I hear Laxus hiss angrily. "What the hell is he doing here?! With them!" Laxus growl annoy.
I could hear lightning crackling softly from beside me.
Finally the man turn around staring at us with a huge sadistic grin.
"Llyr..." I whisper sadly, my heart tighten with disappointment.
"That bastard." Laxus hiss furiously.
"He join Raven Tail." I whisper somberly, clinching my fists angrily.
"GIVE IT UP FOR SABERTOOTH!" The announcer yell happily, the coward goes wild, cheering for them. I didn't even bother to look at the emerging guild.
All of the loud screams slowly fade away and the only thing I can hear is my loud heartbeat. I could feel the tears threatening to slip out as I continue to stare at Llyr. I stiffen rigidly watching him make his way towards us.
"Impossible...that's..." I hear Erza mutter stun, follow by shock gasps from my guild mates.
"Well, if it isn't the old gang. I've given you guys for dead 7 years ago." Llyr states arrogantly, smirking coyly at all of us. "Even big bro and baby sis are here." Llyr grin darkly, eyeing Laxus and I.
"Llyr, what are you doing?" I finally manage to ask weakly.
I couldn't believe Llyr had actually join our Father's guild.
Llyr chuckle darkly looking me straight in the eye, "Something all of the Dreyar siblings should have done years ago." Llyr sneer. He then offer me his hand. "You can still reconsider, Junes." Llyr offer darkly, smirking evilly.
I gasp shock when someone smack Llyr's hand away. The huge figure stood in front of me blocking my view. I stared at their back realizing it was Laxus.
"Don't you dare fucking touch her." Laxus hiss angrily at our brother. "You little shit of traitor."
"Oh please big bro, you're the last person I wanna hear shit from. If I remember correctly thanks to you all of Fairy Tail was force to fight against each other, we hurt each other because of you." Llyr rebuts darkly, glaring fuiciously at Laxus.
I watch Laxus flinch, slowly slumping his shoulders in regret.
I push past Laxus glaring angrily at Llyr. He knew just as well as I did that Laxus regrets that day so much.
"Leave him alone Llyr!" I snap angrily standing in front of Laxus glaring at Llyr. "You know he didn't mean it! He was just confuse!"
Llyr scoff, rolling his eyes at me, "So what? You think I'm confuse too, little sis?" Llyr taunts annoy, narrowing his eyes angrily at me. "But you're wrong sis, I know exactly what I'm doing. This is what I should have done all along." He grin sinisterly and turn around walking back to Raven Tail.
He aburtly stop glancing over his shoulder, "Oh, by the way, I hope the little dragon slayer liked her present." He chuckle darkly walking away.
I stare at my brother's retreating back tearful. He was different. This coldness and distant attuitde. He changed and I couldn't understand why. After the whole Fairy Tail battle he just disappeared.
"It was them! They hurt Wendy!" I hear Natsu growl angrily.
I look at him shock. I couldn't believe it. He would never hurt Fairy Tail. But I could see it on Gray's, Lucy's and Erza's face that he wasn't lying. Wendy had gotten hurt and Llyr had something to do with it. The tears pickerel angrily at the edge of my eyes. I nervously bite my lower lip watching him completely ignore us, not turning his back once in regret.
I could feel someone else staring at me intently, sending shivers down my back. I wearily look around the arena my blue gray eyes stared into a pair of confuse dark blue eyes. Sting and I just stared at each other. A look of confusion and anger never left his eyes as he stared me. His gaze then shift between Laxus and Llyr seems he was trying to figure out what was going on. I close my eyes sadly and took deep shaky breaths trying to calm down.
"This day can't get any worse." I whisper bluntly.
"ALRIGHT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! TIME FOR OUR FIRST EVENT OF THE DAY!" the announcer explain excitedly.
I blink confuse realizing that we were still standing in the middle of the arena with thousands of people watching us. I took one last glance at Sting who was already looking away waving at the crowd arrogantly. I sigh annoy.
'First that asshole and now I have to deal with Llyr too.'
"THE NAME OF THE FIRST EVENT IS CALL HIDDEN!"
I glance up at the huge 3D image of a scoring chart with each of the guilds name on it with 0 points next to them. The announcer went on to explain the rules and objective of the event call Hidden.
"NOW EACH TEAM MUST CHOICE ONE PERSON TO TAKE PART!"
"Pass." I mutter unexcitedly, crossing my arms across my chest solemnly.
"Since Gray-sama has decide to par take, Juvia will also participate!" Juvia exclaim happily, smiling lovingly at Gray.
I smile softly at the love and affection Juvia has for Gray.
'I wonder if I'll ever feel that?'
"Fine by me." Laxus mutter annoy. Seems he wasn't in a good mood either anymore.
"Hey, keep your head in the game!" Gajeel yell aggressively at Juvia.
I chuckle softly at the heart eye woman. She was completely ignoring everything Gajeel was yelling at her.
"Good luck Juvia." I wish my bluenette friend. I walk towards our assign balcony up in the stadium.
The team walk quietly down the stone hallways. I slowly walk a couple of steps behind them, still deep in thought about Llyr. I bite my thumb nervously trying to consider all the possible possibilities of why he join Raven Tail. I completely stop walking when the smell of light and musk fill my nose. I furrow my eyebrows annoy. That prick was nearby and baiting me to go find him.
"I'll catch up in a second." I yell after my friends.
Laxus glance over his shoulder confuse, "Where are you going?" he ask suspiciously.
"I'm going to go check on Wendy." I lie swiftly, but partly true. I will go check on her after I was done dealing with the douche.
"Alright, hurry back before the battle section." Laxus order firmly following after the rest of our team.
I sigh annoy following the smell to a nearby empty hallway. I walk down the quiet hallway my heels clicking loudly against the concrete. I slow down as I near a smirking Sting. He was leaning against the wall, a foot prop against it, arms cross and a devilish arrogant smirk on his lips.
"What do you want?" I mutter mildly bored lace with annoyance.
"You completely ignore my entrance pose. I was posing just for you sunshine." He said cockily, his eyes never leaving mine.
I scoff loudly, placing a hand on my hip, "That so." I mutter bluntly. "What in the world made you think I would be looking at you?"
"I dunno, I kinda figure blonds were your thing." Sting reply bluntly, shrugging his shoulders.
He pushed himself off the wall walking slowly towards me, stopping slightly in front of me.
"What?" I ask confuse furrowing my eyebrows at the sudden remark. "I don't have a type." I mutter stubbornly.
"The tall blond your boyfriend?" Sting question me mildly irrated, staring at me seriously.
I look at him confuse and then realize who he was talking about.
I smirk, "So what if he is." I finally reply back, crossing my arms confidently.
Sting glare at me with doubt, his eyes searching deep in my eyes for the lie. Sting grunts annoy, clinching his fist, "A bet is a bet sunshine. Boyfriend or not. You bet a date and if Sabertooth wins today you'll be going on a date with me." Sting states arrogantly, grinning.
"Exactly, a bet is a bet prick. So if Fairy Tail wins, I expect you to leave me alone." I reply just as confidently.
We stood their silently for a while. I was starting to feel uncomfortable under his intense gaze.
"What?" I finally snap annoy.
"Did that man hurt you?" He finally question seriously.
I look at him confuse and bite my lip nervously, "What are you talking about?" I stutter nervously, looking away from him
"You're a horrible lair, sunshine." Sting reply softly.
I look at him surprise while he keep staring at me intently.
"It's none of your business. I can take care of myself." I reply rudely walking away from him. "It was nice knowing you well it lasted prick." I wave goodbye, not bothering to look back.
I heard him chuckle, "Wear a dress sunshine! I do believe blue is your color!" he yell after me.
I scoff loudly, making my way back to my team. My heart still racing uncontrollably, I gently place a hand over it, furrowing my eyebrows in confusion.
'What the hell?! What the hell is wrong with me?!' I thought horrify at this strange feeling.
I slowly walk down the narrow hallway, holding my hand against my heart. It was still beating wildly within my chest, not slowing down, the mere thought of a smirking Sting sent it right back into overload. I frown displease. What's wrong with me? Am I sick?' I thought annoy, furrowing my eyebrows in confusion.
'You think he's hot...' a thought echo knowingly through my wide.
I completely froze in my spot as soon as that thought came to mind. I felt the wild butterflies suddenly come back to life at the thought of Sting Eucliffe.
"Hell no..." I whisper disbelief, my eyes wide. 'No freaking way am I attracted to Sting Eucliffe.' I thought angrily, clinching my fist . "He's a prick." I hiss out loud, glaring at the ground.
"Who's a prick?" I suddenly hear my brother's voice question me confuse.
I snap my head up, looking at him shock, surprise to see him standing there. He stood there, his arms cross, a serious- concern look on his face. I bite my lip nervously, shamefully looking away from him, "Llyr." I whisper softly feeling awful for lying to him.
'I've never lie to Laxus before...it feels wrong.' I thought shamefully, 'Hopefully we win this thing today, so I never have to deal with Sting Eucliffe and I don't lie to Laxus again.' I thought determinedly.
I squeak surprise when Laxus hug me protectively, his reassurance sweeping into me.
"We'll get him back. You helped me find my way back. We'll help him find his way back." Laxus firmly assure me.
I hug him sadly, feeling a couple of tears slip down, "How can you be so sure." I whisper unsure about everything.
"He's our brother. We Dreyar siblings made a pact to never give up on each other." Laxus reply confidently, squeezing me tightly once more before pulling away.
I pull away wiping a couple of tears away.
"Who's winning?" I whisper softly, sniffling a little.
"Raven Tail." Laxus simple reply walking back to the balcony.
I look at his back shock, furrowing my eyebrows in annoyance. I quickly walk behind him taking a stand beside him. I look up at the huge Lacrima watching Gray get push around by an ugly looking bastard from Raven Tail. I felt my blood boil angrily at the thought of Raven Tail. I dangerously look over at the Raven Tail balcony. Llyr was leaning against the wall with his arms cross, a smirk place on his lips as he watch Gray being push around.
Llyr finally look up smirking evilly at me. My jaw clinch angrily. I growl angrily looking away. I cross my arms and looked back at the competition. I could feel another pair of eyes looking at me, but I will myself not to look. I couldn't. I won't give into these stupid feelings. He can stare all he wants, but I refuse to give him the pleasure of complying with his wishes and look at him.
I furrow my eyebrows in confusion, studying the blond hair man with the huge red feather hat. He stood confidently on top of huge building giving his hidden position away. I cross my arms in annoyance, scoffing angrily.
'Here I thought only Sting was an arrogant prick, but, I guess all of Sabtertooth are arrogant pricks.' I thought bitterly, recalling Sting's arrogant smirk. My stomach dancing around happily, as I remember Sting's smirk again. I bite my lower lip annoy, digging my fingers into my arms. 'I can't...not him...anyone but him.' I beg desparately.
"What the hell does he plan on doing from up there?" Gajeel growl annoy, glaring at the lacrima screens in front of us.
"Good question." I mutter stiffly.
"Memory Make." Rufus spoke boldly, placing his hands on either side of his forehead.
"Impossible." I snap stun, my eyes widen in surprise. "He can use creation magic?!" I question loudly, taking a step closer to Gajeel, to get a better view of the lacrima.
A bright gold light emerge from around Rufus and infold his whole body.
"Into a night of falling stars!!" Rufus shouts bluntly, extending his arms to the air.
Seven bright strikes of light shot into the sky, then they quickly descend down to the ground. I watched amazed how each light hit a participant. I gasp surprise when the seventh one miss the ugly purple looking Raven Tail member. He manage to dodge at the last second. He jump into the sky, rocketing towards the memory make mage.
I frown, watching him take a swing at the Sabertooth member. I raise an eyebrow in confusion when the Raven Tail mage phase right through what was suppose to be the Sabertooth mage.
"A copy?" I question bewilder, mostly to myself.
"No." Laxus reply firmly from behind me. "That's still part of his magic." He elaborates further, I could hear the excitement in his voice.
"Guess his cockiness is well deserve." I mutter excitedly. "Guess these games really aren't going to be boring." I smirk happily at the thought of fighting against him.
Laxus grunts, agreeing with me from behind.
"TIME IS UP!" the announcer yell loudly.
I watch the whole town quickly disappear from within the arena amaze. I glance up at the huge score broad floating in front of me. I glare at the 1st place name angrily.
"Sabertooth." I hiss aggregately, squeezing my arms angrily.
I glance over at Sting annoy. Our eyes meet, his cocky blue eyes stare into mind knowingly. My dark blue eyes stare at him annoy, vowing this still wasn't over. I quickly look away, glancing down at my defeated guild mates. I look around the huge arena booing at us.
"This is new." I mutter surprise, still looking at everyone laughing at us.
"This is unbelievable." Gajeel hiss angrily, glaring at everyone laughing at us.
"Ignore them, this was only the first round. We still have the battle portion." Laxus states confidently.
'He's right. I'll be damn if lose this bet.' I thought annoy.
