Finished with his jog Elfman made it to the upper most roof of the café where his elder sister was waiting for him, though the roof gave a good look at the city it still bothered him with how he needs identification and checks just to meet up with his own fresh and blood even now the two are surrounded by bodyguards.
Mira placed her cup after a sip "So how is training coming along?"
"I'm doing well my arm doesn't bother me as much anymore" Elfman replied as he turned his arm into a beastly form with ease.
Mira smiled as she leaned in fluttering her eyelashes "Great to see improvement aside from bodily improvement did you find spiritual improvement?"
Elfman closed his eyes momentarily his sister was always a woman about love even though she didn't have one she always seemed interested in everybody's love lives "No I'm not really looking for a partner."
"Are there any new romances developing though?"
"Well aside from Gray and Juvia many are talking about Natsu and the new ring girl" Elfman commented taking a sip of his own coffee.
"Lucy and Natsu?" Mira asked with a thoughtful expression in her mind before she beamed with a smile "Yes I can see it!"
*Beep
Mira was interrupted by a binge from her phone as she lifted up she shot a sad smile towards her brother "Sorry but got to go."
"It's alright" Elfman hugged his sister before the two went their separate ways.

"So which one looks better?" Evergreen as she tried different tops before Freed and Bickslow the two men were polar opposites, the latter was tired as he waved his hand.
"Whatever works just pick one already."
"Bickslow this's important!" his partner lectured "Laxus needs to be presented perfectly!"
Evergreen turned back and kept looking between the tops she selected for the night of the gauntlet being the sole female member of Laxus's crew she had to represent and show off her boss for the night, as she heard the two men argue she knew it's better to get the opinion of a woman and what better than a ring girl so she took some pictures of her select and sent to Juvia who gave her advice and lead to Evergreen accepting as she took the intended choice "Wait did you finish already!"
"Yeah I asked Juvia and she said my original pick is the best" Evergreen replied.
"You can't ask someone like that to represent Laxus."
"I mean she's a ring girl she's always showing off, she would know better fashion then ya besides it's tiresome" Bickslow agreed with Evergreen thankfully for her as he got up and left while she went and paid for her attire leaving Freed unable to keep their attention as he slumped down in defeat.

Erza allowed a sigh to escape her lips as she finally placed the final file for the day in leaning back on her chair she smiled with closed eyes for a relaxing time.
*Ring-ring
Well their goes her relaxing as she picked up the phone "Hello?"
"Erza it's me Evergreen" the caller revealed herself.
"I guess you picked the desired clothing for the night" Erza inquired.
"Yes and I even had Juvia's opinion on it."
"That's great she let Lucy know that you'll be joining them for the night right?"
"She said she would."
"Very well, bye" Erza ended the call before she heard.
*Knock-knock
"Come in" the door was opened by Levy as she took her seat "Something the matter?"
Levy shook her head "No I just want to review our schedule if it's alright."
Erza nodded silently agreeing Levy was always bent on timing a trait that lead to her being picked for her position "Then we mostly have small matches here and there along with a match for the returning Bisca against the new girl Wendy Marvell and finally the main event featuring Natsu, Gray, Elfman and Gajeel for a shot at Laxus's championship. During the match Evergreen would be there along with the ring girls and shake the hand of the winner."
"Correct" Erza said.
"Well we need to place Laxus's booth a bit up so he doesn't bother the guys especially Natsu we all know how hot blooded he is" Levy suggested to which Erza nodded suddenly a realization fell upon Levy "Wait Natsu isn't training right now is he?"
Erza shook head reassuringly "No I already took of that."
Levy breathed a sigh of relief.

"That hit the spot" Lucy mused as she laid back on her coach after eating a full course meal to make up for her hunger, though Natsu was kind enough to get something for her in the early morning she still needed something to satisfy her stomach.
*Rumble
The blonde jolted up when she heard her phone rumble picking it up she was greeted by a message from Juvia.
Juvia: Hey Lucy Juvia wanted to let you know we'll be joined by extra help in the next showing
Lucy: Who?
Juvia: Evergreen
The blonde placed a hand under her chin trying to put the name on a face until she remembered.
Lucy: The girl with Laxus?
Juvia: Yes
Lucy: So she'll be with us the whole night or just the main event?
Juvia: Main event
Lucy: Alright thanks for heads up
Juvia: Juvia almost forgot Lucy better cheer for Bisca
Lucy: Bisca?
Juvia: Juvia's lover advisor an old friend she's coming back after her maternal leave
Lucy looked at the app of work rechecking the schedule aside from small matches nothing stood out except the main event which featured Natsu along with Gray with two other guys one she recalls as Mirajane's brother, but something else popped up.
The promotional image featured someone Lucy knew very recently sense she came in after her the girl wounder Wendy Marvell and the other was an adult woman with green hair and a cowboy themed outfit complete with a hat "Bisca Connell?"
Her eyes widened when she remembered that time she jogged with Juvia
"Well Juvia only met her a few times and she was helpful to give Juvia romantic advice regarding her relationship with Gray since Bisca is a married woman and a mother" the blue haired ring girl voice echoed through Lucy's mind.
Lucy: Yeah I remembered good for her
Juvia: Little Asuka will be with us during the duration of the match as well
Lucy: Is it okay?
Juvia: Master allowed it and the little girl is really eager to see her mother in action with her own eyes
Lucy: Alright is their more?
Juvia: No
Lucy: Thanks
Juvia: Welcome

Romeo paced back and forth within his room as he scratched the back of his head constantly to the point it would threat his hair falling apart "How could this be?"
The young man's dilemma started when he ran unto Bisca and her daughter and learned that the beautiful cowgirl return to the competing stage is against his new friend Wendy, it wasn't the first time two friends of his had to compete against each other where he could compromise and cheer both on this time it's an old friend against a new one obviously he should stick with older friends but Wendy was a unique case for him.
He admits he never really interacted much and found much common ground with most people his age which lead to him forming bounds with Natsu and the other's not that he complained about this since most kids would kill to have their friend circle consisting of older and cooler friends, though this came at the sacrifice he wouldn't be social in school he never minded since Natsu along with Gray and the other's were the best choices for friends.
Wendy was something new before she appeared Romeo never thought he would go through the tedious labour of getting approval of those of his age group "Damn it what am I going to do?"
The young man fell on his bed before he looked over to his phone with no ideas coming to his mind there was only one person he can turn to.
(…)
Juvia hummed herself a happy melody as she watched her beloved train, while not as chaotic as Natsu still as hard which calmed Juvia as she needn't but too much effort on stopping him unless when it's necessary.
*Rumble
The sudden buzz of her phone caught her attention as she picked it up surprised by the message "Romeo?"
