Her Champion

A/N: Hi everyone. It`s been quite sometime now since I wrote down an update for this story. I have been busy trying to improve my daily lifestyle as well as trying to convince my boss to get me my own laptop since I no longer have the other one.

I hope you guys don`t mind the wait. I don`t know when the updates will be from now on. Although I will be going on vacation after this month which means I will have more time to write, hopefully...

So anyway here is the new chapter and after we finish this last round of the tournament. We are pretty much halfway done with this story.

Also, I will not be responding to review`s in this chapter since in the last chapter we had a poll to see which princess`s champion will fight Natsu. And speaking of which.

Cana: 5

Knightwalker: 4

Wow. I did not expect them to be this close to each other in terms of votes. But as you can see Cana won by one point. Thank you guys for helping me out and I`ll talk to you guys at the end.

Enjoy.

P.S.: I do not own anything from Fairy tail, only my OC`s.

Chapter 15

Final round part 1

Introduction`s

"Sound of the crowd cheering."

Natsu grinned at the people`s cheers as he was preparing for his fight behind the gates that would let him out into the colosseum. He stretched his legs, arms, back, and neck getting a satisfied "POP" sound from some of them.

"You seem excited." He looked over his shoulder at Erza who was leaning with her back on the stone wall. She had her helmet off, leaving her long scarlet hair on full display with one bang covering her right eye.

Natsu gives her a toothy grin as he stretched his arms some more. "Why wouldn`t I be? I get to fight a guy who just like me, made it all the way to the finals of the tournament.

Erza watched him stretch and blushed whenever his muscles would flex with ever stretch he did. She averted he gate away from him in order to hide her blush. When it calmed down a little bit she cleared her throat before saying.

"Just don`t forget what I told yo-."

"Yeah yeah be careful bla bla bla, don`t get too cocky and all that kind of stuff," Natsu said while waving his right hand in uncaring motion causing Erza to frown at him. She walked over to him and put her hand gently on his shoulder, making him look at her in surprise since she never touched him in such a way before. Usually, she would hit him or yell at him for disobeying her orders or advice.

She surprised him, even more, when she gives him a small grin before saying. "Kickass out there."

He blinked in surprise before grinning back at her. "You got it."

She lowered her hand away from his shoulder and started to pour her magic into her dragon mark, making it glow red in color. Natsu felt his power returning to him as his body as the collar around his neck glowed the same color. When it died down Natsu was smirking as he punched his right fist into his left palm, making a little bit of fire form from the impact.

"Ahhh it feels good to burn again." He said in a happy tone.

"I gave you a little bit more of your power, just to make this finale a little bit more in our favor," Erza said as the glow died down. She then gave him a small pat on the shoulder for good luck before turning to leave.

"Wait," Natsu said making Erza stop and look back at him. She watched him take off his scarf from around his waist since the collar around his neck chocked him when he wore it around it and present it to her. "Here. Keep it safe for me."

Erza looked at it in confusion before taking the offered piece of clothing with one hand. She looked at in confusion before looking back at Natsu and nodding her head. Telling him she will keep it safe.

He nodded back and went back to doing some more warm-up stretches before his fight. Erza gazed at him for a few more seconds before leaving Natsu alone. When she exited the door she took the time to study the white, scale patterned scarf of her champion in her hand. She took it in her other hand as well in order to inspect it more closely.

"Why would he give me this? Does it mean something to him." She thought as she made her gauntlets disappear from her hands, letting her feel the fabric of it. She was surprised at how soft it was as her fingers moved over it gently.

"Wow. What kind of material is this? It`s so soft and warm..." She then looked around to see if anyone was around or looking at her. When she saw no one she begins to wrap the white scarf around her neck.

When she finished placing it comfortably around it, she felt warmth and comfort wash over her body, making her feel safe and warm inside. She smiled while looking at the scarf, lightly caressing it with her hand. She then nuzzled the scarf softly before inhaling the scent of the white fabric.

"Mmm... It smells so sweet." She said with a smile and closed eyes. But quickly opened them up as she blushed so hard that her head could be mistaken as a tomato.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!? YOU ARE A PRINCESS OF ALVAREZ! THINK ABOUT YOUR IMAGE WOMAN!" She thought to herself as her hands gripped the scarf in a way to take it off. But the feeling of the soft fabric of it made her stop in her action.

"Okay, maybe I can wear it a little bit longer." She thought while beginning to walk towards the balcony. Not noticing the presence of another red-haired woman behind her.

A few minutes later at the balcony:

Erza walked through the door and saw Cana already sitting there. Cana was lightly waving at the crowd with a smile on her face. Erza made it to her seat and set down, she watched Cana as she waved happily at the cheering crowd before turning to look at her. She smiled at her and extended her hand towards the amazon princess.

"Good luck Erza. Hope your champion proves a challenge against mine." Cana said in a confident yet friendly voice as Erza narrows her eyes at her but shakes her hand nonetheless.

"You too. Hope he doesn't lose too quickly. Would be a boring show if he did." Erza said moving her hand back and focusing on the arena in front of her. Cana only looked at her with a confident smile and slightly narrowed eyes.

"Hmm... Erza Belserion... You indeed brought up a good competition. But I`m afraid that this is where your`s..."

Her gaze then moved towards Natsu, who has come out from his side of the arena door and was walking towards the center. The crowd cheering his name all the way as he did some poses to make them cheer louder.

"And your champion`s journey ends."

Above them, the kind and his son were watching as well. They're own little conversation going on with Jellal smiling at Natsu`s excitement for his last match.

"You seem happier than before Jellal... Any reason?" He heard his father ask as he only shook his head to answer him.

"No, not really." Gabriel looked at his son with a raised eyebrow but seeing that his son will not give him any form of explanation. Decided to change the topic of their talk.

"So are you excited to finally see who will be your lovely wife?" Jellal`s face fell a little bit at his father`s words but chose to hide it with a blank look.

"Yes, father. I am." In truth. He wanted to marry some he falls naturally in love with but he couldn`t go against his father`s word so he didn`t have a choice in that matter.

He only hoped that whoever his wife will be, will tolerate him and fall in love with him for who he is.

"Good... Any preference?" Gabriel asked looking down at him. Jellal looked over at the two princesses sitting on the balcony below them. Both of them were beautiful in his eyes but if he had to admit. Cana was more carefree and fun-loving than Erza as she was too serious all the time. So if he had to take a side, he would pick Cana.

"I won`t take any. We shall see how the match will play out and let fate guide me to my future wife." Jellal said in a wise tone as his father nodded in agreement and turned his gaze back to the arena.

In the arena:

Natsu was excitedly waiting for his opponent in the middle of the arena. He wore a shit-eating grin on his face as he waved once more towards the cheering crowd. "Man I will sure miss this."

He then saw the door`s opposite of him open, meaning that his opponent is about to make his appearance. He focused himself so much on the door that he did not notice that the crowd has become dead silent. Erza did however and it made her wonder why. Her gaze fell on the door from which a man who appeared to look in his forties stepped out in the open.

He wore a simple pair of dark blue pants, a dark cloak with shoulder guards, and a pair of gray boots. He wore no shirt making everyone gaze upon his muscular chest and abs. The man had orange shoulder-length hair as well as a stubble beard. He walked slowly out into the arena which was still peach silent. He also was missing his left arm which was replaced by a prosthetic

"Who is this guy?" Natsu thought while looking at the man with caution. When the man was just about 10 feet away from him, he stopped and started to scratch his nose as if there was something bothering him about it.

"Ah... Ah..."

Natsu give him a confused look and was about to say something when all of a sudden.

"CHUUUUUUUUUUUUU!"

He was blasted away by the most powerful force of air he has ever felt. The air from the sneeze was so powerful it hit the sides of the arena making it rush over the stands and balconies of royalty. The crowd ducked for cover behind the chairs and guard rails while some guards were trying to stay put as to not be blown away by the wind.

Erza covered her face with her arms in order to block the wind from her face while Cana was simply smiling at the accident display of power. Jellal and his father kept their eyes on the arena, not bothered by the sudden blast of air.

Natsu who was blasted good 20 feet back looked up from his position at the man who was rubbing his nose with his prosthetic arm in both wonder and surprise.

"Did he really just pushed me away with a SNEEZE?!" He thought to himself in shock and a little bit of panic as the man in front of him stopped rubbing his nose and chuckled nervously at him.

"Hahaha... Sorry about that kid. Hope I didn`t scare your pant`s off." He said as his dark green eyes locked with Natsu`s onyx ones, a confident smile grazing his face as he took a step forward. "Because now it`s about to get really scary."

A/N: Here it is. Sorry if it`s short everyone. So this will be a three-part chapter event, meaning that it will take two more chapters to finish this fight. Again guys sorry for not updating sooner I will try to fix up my schedule in order to get some writing done.

But this should be fun to write since my favorite character is making his appearance in these three chapters.

Thank you for understanding everyone.
