SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 83 out, this is Chapter 84 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?

Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot bunny and my OCs.

Chapter 84: Mirajane vs. Jenny

"Like this?" Mirajane smiled, already in a bikini and posing.

"How's this?" Jenny retaliated with a similar tactic.

"What the hell is going on?" Natsu and Gray exclaimed.

"Mira…" Wendy muttered.

"I guess since they're both former pinup models, an irregular rule turned it into a cheesecake showdown." Ulyo sighed.

"Like this?" Mirajane posed into another bikini suit.

"Hi…" Jenny countered with a leopard print bikini.

"They do this kind of thing in the battle part, too?" Wendy wondered.

"I imagine this involves a special rule…" Lucy reasoned. "Or at least, I hope so…"

"As expected, quite impressive." Jenny noted.

"It's been a while since I've done this kind of thing." Mirajane admitted.

"I didn't think you'd agree to do a pinup idol showdown." Jenny noted.

"Yeah, well, I'm not too fond of slugfests." Mirajane confessed. "If we can resolve this peacefully, all the better, right?"

"Hold it!" Ditea declared, as she, Arania and Risely leapt into the arena in their swimsuits. "It won't do to let these little girls get all the attention!"

"When it comes to strength, as well as beauty…" Arania added, the trio landed.

"Mermaid Heel is Number One." The three women chorused.

"Stop right there!" Sherry announced as she, Chelia and Litana, too, entered the fray. "You people don't have enough love! If you think you can please the crowd just by posing in swimsuits, you're gravely mistaken. It's all about love. Without love…"

"You can't beat us." Chelia finished.

"This is no time to just sit back and be impressed." Mavis reminded.

"But I didn't bring a swimsuit." Cana stated.

"Don't worry." Mavis smiled. "I anticipated that so I came prepared with enough swimsuits for everyone. You three can't just sit back and watch either." She reminded Erza's group. "Let's all join in!"

"When other people from the cheering section take the field, doing nothing is not an option." Erza declared.

"What, you're going out, too?" Laxus asked the other female mage on the team who was already decked in her bikini.

"It's a matter of Senshi pride." Ulyo retorted.

"I think this has gotten out of hand." Mirajane noted, the rest of the females clustered in the arena.

"Well, it's not bad as a fun little stunt." Jenny remarked.

"Still and all, this match is just between Mirajane and Jenny." Chapati reminded.

"In that case, there's no point in us being out here." Levy pointed out.

"The main thing is that we have fun." Mavis stated.

"And how is that a ghost like you get such a kick out of this?" Ulyo wondered.

"I bet anything her personality has an effect on the mood of our Guild." Lucy declared.

"What, you're here, too?" Erza blinked, spotting Evergreen beside her.

"I won't let you people hog the spotlight." Evergreen replied.

"The next theme is school swimsuits." Chapati announced.

"Why are we suddenly in weird fetish swimwear?" Levy wondered

"You don't really look out of place, Wendy." Lisanna remarked.

"That doesn't make me happy!" Wendy wailed.

"Lisanna, is it me," Ulyo started. "Or have your boobs gotten bigger?"

"Next up is bikinis and thigh-high heels." Chapati declared.

"For some reason, this feels even more embarrassing than the swimsuit alone." Lucy noted.

"Is that so?" Ulyo wondered.

"Moving on, girls in glasses." Chapati continued.

"This isn't any change for me." Laki shrugged.

"Cat ears!" Chapati was on a roll.

"Is there any point for me to wear them?" Carla sighed.

"Bondage!" Chapati announced.

"This is also a form of love." Sherry cracked her whip.

"You are too into it." Chelia gaped.

"Well, Erza?" Evergreen taunted. "Are you about ready to admit defeat?"

"Did you say something?" Erza retorted, brandishing a nine o-wisp.

"I lose." Evergreen conceded.

"The next theme is 'wedding dress'." Chapati declared. "Prepare a partner and get into bridal gear."

"I'm sorry for suddenly dragging you into this, Master." Mirajane smiled, partnering Makarov.

"Well, you were at hand…" Jenny shrugged, Hibiki at her side.

Levy sweatdropped as Jet and Dory decked it out on who was to be her partner, before turning to an uninterested Gajeel, Pantherlily having partnered up with Asuka.

"Seriously, what's up with men and a lack of a romantic bone?" Ulyo wondered outloud.

"What is it about us males without a romantic bone?" Gray teased, an arm around her waist.

"I thought you freaked out the last time I mentioned marriage?" Ulyo joked.

"Not this time." Gray nuzzled her neck. "Should we consider this a dress rehearsal?"

"I'm the groom for you, right, Carla?" Happy asked.

"Well, since we're both Exceeds…" Carla relented.

"Juvia, I'm the one for you!" Lyon declared, Juvia in his arms.

"Lyon-sama, but Juvia is…" Juvia stated.

"Who should I…" Lucy looked around, only to be lifted off the ground by Loke.

"Lucy, what are you doing?" Natsu complained, Loke having vanishing back to the Celestial World and leaving Lucy on top of Natsu. "Hurry up and get off me…"

"The wedding showdown is over." Chapati declared, the bell ringing. "Let's go back to the swimsuit showdown."

"I think it's about time I put in an appearance." Ooba Babasaama announced. "Lamia Scale's Ooba Babasaama is going to show you what a woman's charm is!" she leapt off her stand.

Insert instant white-out.

"Lyon-aniki, I pity you." Ulyo told her big brother figure.

"With that single strike, the excitement in this arena went down the drain." Chapati remarked. "The interlopers suddenly lost interest and are returning to their seats."

"It looks like playtime is over." Jenny remarked.

"I'm a little disappointed." Mirajane admitted. "That was fun…"

"Mira, this will be the last one." Jenny declared.

"I'm not gonna lose." Mirajane was confident.

"Why don't we go with the flow of the previous matches and make a bet?" Jenny suggested.

"Good idea." Mirajane agreed. "What are the stakes?"

"How about the person who loses has to appear nude in the Weekly Sorcerer?" Jenny laid down the terms.

"Sure, why not?" Mirajane smiled.

"The final theme…" Chapati sweated. "Is battle gear."

"This is my battle form." Jenny changed into her battle suit.

"Then I'll change into mine." Mirajane started to power up. "We went with the flow of previous matches and made a bet so maybe it'll be okay to keep going with that flow and finish this with a little dust-up?"

"She won't…" Ulyo gaped when Mirajane started to transform. "She did." She sighed, Mirajane appearing in her Satan Soul: Sitri form seconds later.

"I accepted you bet." Mirajane declared. "Now I want you to accept my power. Okay?" without warned, she charged, taking out the shell-shocked Jenny in one strike.

"The winner… Mirajane!" Chapati declared Mirajane the victor.

"Sorry." Mirajane smiled. "I look forward to seeing you in your birthday suit, Jenny."

"No!" Jenny wailed.
