Natsu x Erza oneshot
"speaking"
"thinking"
On with the story
It was a very special day in Magnolia
On this very day, Fairy Tail held its special 'Fairy Tail 24 hours Road Race!'
Many citizens gathered around in their seats as they watched the members of Fairy Tail lining up in the start line of the race
"woow" Lucy, and Wendy said in unison as they've never been in the road race ever before
"everyone's really revved up for this race" Lucy looks around as she can see that everyone doesn't want to lose the race
"looks like this year is going to be another hard one" Gray said doing some stretching to warm up
"knowing Master, he is going to make some crazy hell punishment game" Elfman said while punching his fists together
"a punishment game?" Lucy and Wendy asked
"every year, Master make a punishment for whoever gets last place in the race" Cana explained while trying to hold in a laugh "last year was hilarious when Gray got last place"
"HEY! I thought we agreed on not telling that to anyone!" Gray shouted angrily while having an embarrassed face
"everyone!" Makarov shouted out as everyone turned their attention to him
Makarov coughs a bit to his fist before a magic mike bird floated near his mouth
"All members of Fairy Tail! A wizard is one with both strength and mind! Now it is time for you all to utilize those abilities to the fullest!"
"mind? This is a race, you know" Elfman said crossing his arms
"why do we need to use our heads when our legs are doing all the running?" Gray added in
Makarov then explained the rules as everyone had to run from Magnolia towards Mt Ivor and then return back with a wyvern scale in their hands
"and remember! We have a new regulation rule signed in! and that is NO flying magic is allowed!" Makarov said as this made Evergreen pale
"what a crafty old fox" Wakaba said smoking his pipe
"I can already see those who are going to be in last place this year" Macao said sighing
"it's only one person, right?" Gajeel said "as long as it's the last person, he/she is the only one going to get the punishment"
"that's quite the logical thinking" a voice spoke out as everyone turns to see Erza coming into view "but it's too low"
"Erza!?" everyone looks in surprise to see her
A month ago, the scarlet knight had got married to Natsu as the two were now happily wedded couple
"in this race, you must pour your tears, sweat, and even your blood!" Erza exclaimed pumping a fist as she equips on a tracksuit outfit on her "this is the true meaning to the stamina endurance race"
"but Erza.." Lucy said as she pointed at Erza's stomach that was slightly bulging "..you're pregnant remember?"
"it does not matter if I am pregnant or not!" Erza said with fire in her eyes "I shall compete to win!"
2 weeks after getting married, the scarlet knight found herself pregnant and it was a celebratory party for 3 days straight in the guild when they heard the news of a new coming member in the future
"no, you're not" Natsu appeared behind her as he carried Erza up in his arms and started walking away
"NATSU! PUT ME DOWN! THE RACE!" Erza screams at her husband who completely ignored her
"you're pregnant and that means no race" Natsu said as he tied Erza to a chair
"NO! I WANT TO BE IN THE RACE!" Erza started whining like a child as Natsu just ignores her whining
"to think that they're married" Lucy and the others thought with a sweatdrop behind their heads
After a while of prepping up, everyone went behind the start line as they readied themselves to run
"hehehehe, this is going to be a walk in the park" Jet said with a smirk as he was known as the fastest man in the guild
"that Jet, he thinks that he is going to win this thing," Gray said while squatting a bit before readying himself to run
"wait till he gets my fist and let's hear it again" Elfman added in
"READY!" Makarov shouted out as he then fired a small magic explosion from the tips of his fingers "GO!"
In an instant, Jet went on full speed as his run made the other runners fell down in his dust
"HIGH SPEED!" Jet shouted as he runs at high speed
"damnit!" Gray shouted as he and the others started running
"COOOOOOL!" Jason, the Weekly Sorcerer's Reporter screams out as he was the commenter in the race "there he goes! JETTTTTT!"
Jason looks at the Lacrima Orb as he watched how Jet runs to fast
"he is racing through town and on to Mt. Ivor! Is he going to win the race this year again!? COOOOLLL!"
Jet runs so fast that the others were left in his dust
"hahaha, too easy!" Jet said before a red flash went past him
"Wha?!" Jet looks in shock as in front of him was Natsu wearing Enryuo no Yoroi
"Is this the best you can do?" Natsu asked looking at Jet as his faceplate slides open "Jet?"
"you!?" Jet gawked at Natsu who smirks as his faceplate slides close
Natsu then looks forward as he runs ahead of Jet
"UNBELIEVABLE!" Jason screamed "NATSU DRAGOV TOOK THE LEAD! AS EXPECTED OF THE 0TH RANKED WIZARD SAINT!"
Lucy and the others heard Jason's comment and they were shocked to know the Fairy Tail's number one speedster lost his lead against Natsu
"like hell I'm going to lose!" Gray shouted as he increases his speed
"I'm going to win!" Gajeel shouted next
Natsu runs faster than Jet as his speed made the ground burn in flames
"going ahead~" Natsu said as his wings spread and flames erupted
Natsu runs faster as his flames act as boosters that increased his speed further
The crowds started cheering as the race was a sight to see
Erza looks at the screen as she puffs her cheeks
"not fair" Erza said before Milo jumps to her lap and meowed
Natsu reached Mt. Ivor in matter of minutes as he reached to the top of the mountain
He bent down and picked up a Wyvern Scale
"Now then" Natsu turns towards the direction of Magnolia as he can see the others coming from afar "time to head back"
Natsu quickly runs back as he runs down the mountain before into the forest
As Natsu runs in the forest, he went past Jet who came to the mountain in a few minutes after Natsu
"he got the scale already?!" Jet exclaimed in surprise as he runs faster to the mountain Top
"Natsu Dragov has obtained the Wyvern Scale! Is he going to finish first?!" Jason screamed as he sees Natsu passing by other racers in matter of seconds "we might have a first-place winner already!"
Makarov grinned as he can tell that Natsu was holding back
"that brat thinks that the race is a small jog, eh?" Makarov thought as he knew that Natsu wore his armor to slow his speed a bit "if he didn't wear the armor, he would've finished first before the race even started"
Natsu runs towards Magnolia as he turns around the corner and was now heading towards the park
"an easy win" Natsu smirks behind his helmet before he heard a stampede behind him
He turns to look and sees everyone running behind him
"WAIT RIGHT THERE!" they all shouted at Natsu who grins in reply
"that's it" Natsu thought "it wouldn't be fun to win like this!"
Natsu purge his armor as he now runs with his bare strength and stamina
"OOOOOoooooooohhhhh!" everyone roared out as they run straight for the finish line
"THE WINNER!"
Natsu, Gajeel, Gray, Elfman, and Jet runs towards the Finish line as they were nearly centimeters away
"IS ME!"
Everyone reached the finish line as Natsu won first place by a single centimeter
"WINNER! NATSU DRAGOV!" Jason shouted out as Natsu raised his right fist up and the crowds cheered for him
"man, that was fun!" Natsu said before seeing Gray and the others dropping to the ground, dead tired
"looks like they used up all of their stamina to catch up with you" Makarov said scratching his mustache
"hahahaha, you guys sure are fun to be with" Natsu said while grinning before Milo jumps up to his shoulder and meowed
That's a wrap
Bye bye
