Team Raven's Oath was prepared to win first place.

Arriving back to Moe Moe inn after the elimination round, everyone had fallen asleep in their respective beds - expect Shiro who happened to fell asleep on the girls' balcony. Slowly, each member of Team Raven's Oath woke up to get ready for the Opening Ceremony and first day of the Grand Magic Games, while Master Hiro gleefully cooking up a buffet in the inn kitchen as the cooks watched on - some even taking notes - as his 'children' prepared for today's events. After eating Hiro's 'masterpiece', the team headed out to Domus Flau, where the Grand Magic Games are being hosted.

Finally arriving to Raven's Oath corridor leading to the arena, the team stood silently chatting - slightly arguing - waiting for the ceremony to being. Just as Team Raven's Oath was beginning to become impatient, the game's announcer, a tan man with a small face, dark smoothed back hair wearing a brown suit with a white undershirt and a dark blue tie, spoke up cheerfully, starting the ceremony.

"I'm your announcer, Chapati Lola, and next to me is former magic council member, Yamaji-san, who will provide commentary." The man sitting next to Chapati was definitely older than him, he was bald with bushy eyebrows and a tiny bit of hair that made his mustache. He wore a white chef's outfit with a red ribbon tied loosely around his neck, gold buttons used to closed the shirt were all along the front, and to top it off, a white chef's hat on his bald head. His eyes remained closed.

"Today's guest is Hiro Ruta, the Guild Master of Raven's Oath." This surprised Team Raven's Oath as their guild master sat in the commentaries booth, excitement rivaling Chapati's.

"No way that old man is a guest speaker. I bet his bribed them to let him be a guest!" Chika spoke suddenly causing the team's silent chatting to cease momentally.

"Now to introduce the guilds participating in this year's' Grand Magic Games beginning from first to last place. In first place is the guild known for their power, Sabertooth!" Cheers erupted as Team Sabertooth walked out. In front of the group was a Eastern looking young woman, behind her was a blonde guy with a scar above his left eye and a guy with black hair covering his right eye partially. Behind them, slightly to the sides to create a v shape, was another blonde male with waist length hair, and a green haired male with a black headband across his forehead pushing his hair away. Each appearing to be around the age of fifteen.

"In second place, an all-female guild, the dancing girls of the great deep, Mermaid Heel!" More cheers were heard as five young women walked out, one wearing a cape with a cat ear shaped hood on carrying their guild's flag.

"The Goddess of love and war, the holy destroyer, Lamia Scale in third place!" The cheering continued as a group of five walked out, four young men and an eleven year old girl. One of the men had white hair spiked upward, and one of them looked like a clueless dog.

"In fourth place, a new guild, a raven's promise that is never to be broken, Raven's Oath!" Murmurs could be heard alongside the cheers as Hanako walked out with the rest of the team behind her.

"Another new guild, a mythical creature feared by many, Orochi's Fin in fifth place!" More confused murmurs mixed within the crowds cheers as three women and two men walked out into the arena.

"In sixth place, the bright blue wings in the pitch black, Blue Pegasus!" Cheers overtook the crowd again - mostly the women - as four beautiful men and a woman walked into the arena cheerful, occasionally winking at the crowd.

"In seventh place, the hounds of hell, Quatro Cerberus!" The crowd cheered as five men walked out, most wearing spiked collars around their necks yelling, 'Wild Four' despite there being five team members, causing many people to sweatdrop.

"In last place, once the strongest guild in Fiore, Fairy Tail!" As the five members walked out, the crowd booed, angering the team members as well as Shiro - who debated soaking the crowd with her magic. Speaking up again, Chapati silenced the crowd.

"The tournament will be divided into 5 days, with two events held each day, four battles and one surprise event. For the surprise event, each team will receive an amount of points based on their position in the end of it. For the battles, the winning team gets 10 points and the loser won't get any; if the fight ends up in a draw, both teams get 5 points. The arena is the entire battle field and the winner is decided when the opponent is rendered incapable of fighting within the thirty minute time limit. Each team has already been given points based on their placement in the elimination round. Now to begin the first day of the Grand Magic Games with the first surprise event, Blast! Each team must pick one member to participate in this event." Chapati spoke with excitement, while Master Hiro had an odd spark in his eyes.

Immediately, Hanako stood up stating that she was going to participate in the event. No one had disagreed as Hanako made her way into the arena from the balcony belonging to Team Raven's Oath. Out of nowhere, Mato - the pumpkin man - appeared in the arena as Chapati announced the completers for the event.

"The Raven Princess Hanako Kuroha from Raven's Oath has volunteered." Hanako stood in the center of the arena wearing a red sleeveless dress with a white collar and a white bow with the guild symbol on top. The dress ended at her mid-thigh, but had another skirt that is floor length covering the back attached with a thin chain. The middle of the dress had a brown under bust corset and the top portion of the dress was button up. She wore black thigh highs with black ankle boots. Her red guild mark on her left shoulder.

"Fairy Tail's sharpshooter Bisca Connell has be picked." A big busted woman walked out with the bottom portion of her long green hair pulled into a braid and a dark cowgirl hat with a curved-up brim, adorned by a lighter-colored band covered in large studs on her head. She wore a revealing bikini top covered in dark stripes below an open, dark buttoned vest. A similarly colored skirt adorned by a series of light strips hanging down from it in the middle part covers her lower body, while a pair of high-heeled cowgirl boots decorated by matching strips are on her feet, while a set of armbands circled her biceps, paired by darker, simple long bands around her wrists.

"From Sabertooth is Orga Nanagear." The man with long, spiky, shoulder-length light green hair, two long spikes fall on either side of his face framing it, a plain black headband over his forehead keeping his hair in place; his massive shoulders and biceps are adorned by large dark tattoos, with each arm bearing a circle flanked by a pair of slender objects, similar to both wings and elongated leaves. His face is adorned by four vertical black stripes covering his chin, placed one near the other, resembling an unconventional beard. Most of his muscular upper body is left exposed: his clothing only consists of a light, striped pair of pants, with a large, fur-rimmed, tiger-patterned cloth secured around his waist by a plain light band, dark armbands with light edges circling his massive forearms, each bearing a pair of small furry balls on its outer side, near the hand, and dark shoes with light soles, sporting similarly light, simple elongated motifs on their upper part. Encircling his massive neck are three golden-colored, plain ornamental rings.

"Semmes from Quatro Cerberus has joined." Semmes is a very tall and massive individual. His face had two white semicircles are located at its sides, each going from the eye to the corresponding side, while the central part is light blue in color. Semmes' eyes being completely white. Covering most of Semmes' large upper body is a single black garment, even extending up to his head and acting as an hood of sort and growing a pair of prominent protrusions jutting outwards from the sides of the head, each ending in a large, golden sphere. The collar circling the area where Semmes' neck is supposed to be is also golden in color, while a large, light decoration shaped like the letter "X" adorns the central part of such cloth. On his legs, he wore a light, mildly loose pair of pants reaching down below his knees, possessing prominent hems and coming with a sash circling his waist and bearing a similarly colored waistguard split in two parts, with each part hanging above the outer side of a leg. His feet are covered by dark shoes with light soles, which on the upper part bear a light "X".

"Lamia Scale's Ice Mage Lyon Vastia has come out to play." He had on a short, high-collared tunic, which is dark in color and has light edges and cuffs, together with many decorative motifs on the lower part of the chest and sleeves; the tunic's collar is left slightly open. His shoulders are covered by a dark mantle with a high collar and light, jagged edges matching his tunic. In addition, he wears dark pants with light parts circling his thighs and gray boots.

"Blue Pegasus' Eve Tearm has been chosen to participate." A man with blonde slightly wavy hair wearing a casual outfit consisting of a yellowish short-sleeved shirt left untucked over navy blue suit pants with a tie around his neck, covered in white and blue diagonal stripes, and brown leather shoes.

"Beth Vanderwood from Mermaid Heel has stepped forward." A petite young girl around twelve with orange-brown hair, which is tied in two braided pigtails on either side of her head. She was wearing a black T-shirt with a white collar line under a pair of calf length greyish blue overalls, covering her torso and reaching up below her armpits, held up by shoulder straps. The overalls are plain except for a series of simple, small round motifs going down the side. On her feet were a pair of red sandals.

"Hikaru Hayashibara from Orochi's Fin is competing." Out walked a girl with knee length hair pulled into a long french braid going down her back. The top of her hair was a dark blue, while the underside was a light pink color. She wore a revealing multicolored two piece cheerleader outfit with the one of the tops' sleeves sliding of onto her right shoulder, her skirt only reaching her mid thigh, as mismatched thigh highs cover her legs. On her feet were black boots that stopped at her calves.

"Now that all participants have been picked, we can begin Blast." Chapati announced as a giant magic circle appeared in the arena, creating a beautiful castle amazing the crowd as well as the teams.

"The rules are simple, kabo!" Mato exclaimed from his position on top of the castle, "Inside the castle are various kinds of monsters, each having a target somewhere on their body. Every contestants will enter the castle and attack the monsters, if you hit the bullseye your team will receive a point, however if you miss the bullseye your team will lose a point. After thirty minutes, the points gained with be ranked and added to your team's final score. Now, Blast has begun!" Mato shouted causing the contestants run into the castle.

Pulling the pistols from under her skirt, Hanako began firing at the horrid monsters with various targets covering their bodies. Each bullet hitting bullseye, even as the monsters moved. The sound of another gun firing caught her attention as Bisca from Fairy Tail's team entered the ballroom, in which Hanako had been in. The lamica screens showed the action occurring within the castle walls to everyone willing to watch.

"It seems as if the two sharpshooters are facing off!" Chapati shouted into his microphone. Making poor Yamaji to sweatdrop as Master Hiro watched Hanako hit every target in the bullseye alongside Fairy Tail's Bisca. Suddenly, Yamaji spoke up about the other contestants.

"It looks as if Quatro Cerbersus' Semmes isn't quite making the bullseye. But Lyon Vastia from Lamia Scale is catching up, while the hair mage from Orochi's Fin is just making it above last place." Despite his eyes being closed, Yamaji seemed to see just fine. The thirty minutes had ticked down until the contestants only had a minute last, and unfortunately for Bisca, she encountered a monster with a target on its' behind with the bullseye on main street. However, a bullet from one of Hanako's pistols shot across the room, hitting the bullseye and traveled up the monsters' main street causing the horrid beast to howl in pain as the timer went off.

"Well that was an interestingly placed target, don't you think? Hanako's skills are truly amazing." Master Hiro couldn't stop laughing as he asked Chapati, who was amazed at Hanako's shooting skills.

"With the event over, it seems as if that last shot sent Hanako Kuroha into first place giving Team Raven's Oath ten points. Bisca's skills put Fairy Tail in second place giving them eight points. Lamia Scale in third place with six points, and Mermaid Heel making fourth place with four points." Chapati announced as he stood up. After everyone left the castle to go back to their respective balconies, the castle disappeared back into its' magic circle and Mato appeared again in the center of the arena as Chapati announced the beginning of the battle portion.

"Today's first battle is between the Raven Dreamer Chika Violet of Raven's Oath and the Flirty Card mage of Orochi's Fin, Gackt Mosuta!" Chapati shouted into the microphone. As Chika and Gackt made their way to the arena, Yamaji and Master Hiro talked about each opponent's magic. Then out walked a lean man with fiery red hair kept in a messy style wearing a black and red pinstriped button up shirt covered with a closed red vest, simple black pants adoring his legs as black leather shoes covered his feet, various bracelets sat on his wrists as the shirts sleeves were rolled up, higher on the right side. Hanging from his mouth was a lit cigarette, smoke flowing behind him as he walking into the arena.

Chika soon entered wearing a white Lolita dress, the dress had a white skirt with the guild mark on the side overlapping various ruffles, a white dress shirt tucked into the skirt and around the collar sat a black bow, as several more black bow decorated the dress. Her usual black platform mirajane's that had ribbons tied around her legs and pulled into a bow just below her knees, and her dark purple hair tied back into two curled pigtails on either side of her head. The gong was hit announcing that the battle had begun. Immediately, the red-haired card mage began to flirt with Chika as she scoffed at him.

"If I win this battle, then you have to go on date with me, ya dig sweetheart?" Gackt asked with a confident smirk, only to have Chika scoff again.

"How about if I win, you stay twelve feet away from me at all time, you pedofile." Chika shoot back before sending an attack towards him, only for him to pull out a nullification card making her attack powerless. Gackt immediately threw several cards at Chika as if they were shuriken allowing them to cut Chika as they hit, making her scream in pain and drop to her knees. Angry, Chika stood up holding her left arm at her bicep showing off her purple guild on the back of the right hand. Exchanging several more attacks with Gackt, Chika finally got fed up with the battle and performed a finishing move.

"Dream Magic: Nightmare Scheme!" Chika said as a purple magic circle appeared under Gackt as the sky around the arena darken. Gackt eyes widen as the arena changed into a burning village with a giant brown monster standing above the village, its' claws tightly around a female with waist length fiery red hair, and its' clawed feet on top of a burning house, seemingly unaffected by the heat. Watching the scene, Gackt let out a scream and dropped down to his knees with head in his hands as tears streamed out of his eyes. Suddenly, he was back inside the area as Chika stood above him with an unknown look in her eyes, the crowd was silently as they waited for something to happen. Gackt drops his head showing his defeat causing the crowd to cheer for Chika's victory.

"With Gackt Mousta no longer fighting, Chika Violet of Raven's Oath has won the match, earning Raven's Oath ten points." Yamaji's voice cut through the crowd's cheers.

"That's my baby Chika!" Master Hiro cheered causing Team Raven's Oath to sweatdrop as Chika blushed due to the embarrassment as she complained about the odd guild master. Until Chapati announced the second battle.

"It's Mermaid Heel's strongest mage Kagura Mikazuchi vs Miss Fiore Jenny Realight of Blue Pegasus!" Jenny was the first to arrive in the arena. She has long, wavy and flowing blonde hair, tied in a ponytail that reaches down to her middle back, with two short bangs framing her face with a decorative flower with large petals adorning the right part of her head, above her right ear. She had a fair amount of jewelry on; a pair of thin chain earrings, circling her neck is a light necklace composed of many flat, square metal parts, and both of her wrists bear bracelets, with two of them, covered in a wavy pattern, being present on the right one, and a third, consisting of three thin circlets joined together, adorning her left one, her right little finger sports a ring. Her attire consisted of a sparkly, light-pink strapless sequin dress, revealing a fair share of her ample cleavage and reaching down to her calves, which bears a large slash on the skirt's left part. Tied around her waist is a long, flowing light cloth with ruffled edges, circling most of her lower body, with her sparkly skirt under it, and she wears pink high-heels for footwear. Her Blue Pegasus stamp is located on her left shoulder.

Hanako could be seen with a blush on her tanned skin as Jenny walked into the arena, causing Calen, who was standing next to her on the balcony, to smile. It was then that a woman with long, straight black hair that falls to the middle of her back cut in the traditional Japanese "princess style" walking into the arena. She had on an elaborate blazer with gold lining, and a large collar, which is open to reveal a collared shirt and red tie underneath. The cuffs of this jacket are tucked into a pair of white wrist-high gloves. On her legs, she wore a pair of black tights, which are tucked into a pair of knee-high boots and sit under a short white frilled skirt. Kagura also wears a white headband with a white ribbon tied at the middle in a bow, pointing straight up. Jenny had confidently greeted the brunette girl with a charming smile, to which Kagura politely greeted back with a black expression as the gong sounded.

"Let's make this battle interesting, shall we?" Jenny asked confidently as if she was going to win, only to have Kagura shoot her idea down. Offended, Jenny scoffed as she changed into her battle form.

"Take Over: Machina Soul!" Her head is covered by a ruffled dark headband which is attached to conical ear protectors which jut out and backwards. Her torso is covered by a dark battle suit with light edges, split in two main parts: a revealing shirt exposes a fair amount of her cleavage and her belly, while her legs are covered in similar, tight-fitting pants leaving the inner parts of her thighs exposed. The two pieces are joined together on the front by two thin, dark straps, creating an "X" in correspondence to Jenny's abdomen, each of their edges secured by thin, light bolts, while on the back the shirt and pants become one, with a thong-like garment covering her bottom leaving the upper central part of it exposed. She sports light gloves extending up to her shoulders, each secured by a series of buttons on the inner part of her arms, which possess metal plating in correspondence to her hands and metal bands on their upper edges; every arm has the above mentioned part linked together by a thick, dark cord, solidly remaining arched and not hanging down. Her legs are covered by armored thigh-high boots, sporting distinctively large upper edges protruding upwards, as well as metal high heels. Jenny's neck is hidden by plate armor that extends on her shoulders in the form of rounded pauldrons and up to her chin, with two peculiar protrusions hiding her ears away jutting outwards, getting smaller as they get farther from her face.

After dodging several of Jenny's attacks, Kagura used Gravity Change to keep Jenny on the ground before using her unsheathed sword to attack Jenny, easily defeating her despite not leaving any visible wounds causing Kagura to win.

"With the amazing move, Mermaid Heel's Kagura Mikazuchi has won her team ten points, while Blue Pegasus' Jenny Realight has earned zero points." Master Hiro announced in slight awe.

"For the next battle Quatro Cerbersus' Nobarly is against Fairy Tail's Nab Lasaro!" Master Hiro shouted into the microphone cheerfully. Nab had walked out wearing a light red cape tied in a knot on the front, a dark loincloth with a lighter part hanging over it and a belt divided in round squares around the waist. His forearms and calves wrapped up in bandages, and he has a large, roundish red feather to the right side of the band circling his head. He wears a necklace of skulls around his neck, over his cape. and a pair of wide, horizontal white stripes, each covering one of his cheeks. Both of his shoulders are adorned by a white tattoo consisting of several circles, with a larger one in the center being surrounded by smaller ones, in a shape resembling a stylized sun. He has a prominent belly, and his hair was cut into a bob cut, almost reaching down to his shoulders, and he also sports a thin beard around his mouth.

Nobarly also walked out, his messy black hair, almost reaching down to his shoulders, had two large bangs framing his face and covering its sides, however is mostly hidden by the light blue bandana covering his head and hiding his eyebrows. His torso is covered by a loose, light sleeveless shirt adorned by a series of lines crossing it vertically, with a large, light belt bearing two horizontal lines of studs sitting below it, circling his waist, right above the loose dark pants he wears on his legs, ending some inches above his ankles, with his footwear consisting of a pair of dark shoes, with light sections circling the ankles themselves. His muscular forearms are wrapped in light bandages, and around his neck is a dark collar covered in light spikes.

Just as the timer was ticking down to the last second, Nab used his Animal Possession to summon forth the ethereal figure of a wolf-like creature on his left arm increasing his punching power as he punched Nobarly across the arena, making the battle tied.

"Well that was quite the battle. It seems as if Fairy Tail is going to redeem themselves this year, what do you think Yamaji-san?" Chapati asked as the arena was cleared, so that the next battle could begin.

"It's very possible for Fairy Tail to make a comeback this year." Yamaji said with a sad smile, but Chapati had to announced the last battle of the day.

"The final battle from today is Lamia Scale's Jura Neekis against Sabertooth's Light Dragon Slayer Sting Eucliffe!" From the Lamia Scale balcony came a tall, bald man with a long, thin dark beard growing from his chin, which reaches down below his upper chest in a wavy motif paired by a little, similarly colored mustache split in two parts, each placed diagonally below his nose. He wears a dark kimono, with the collar and sleeves adorned by a dark motif consisting of many squares placed in succession, linked together by a dark line and similarly flanked by two more lines, striped, traditional hakama and geta sandals paired with light tabi. He also sports a dark mantle draped over his shoulders. His hands resting inside his sleeves casually.

From Sabertooth's balcony came spiky haired blonde with a thin, diagonal scar above his right eye. On left ear is an earring which, in itself, is attached to by a prominent metal pendant that is crystalline in shape. His white Sabertooth mark is located on his left shoulder. Sting had on a blue vest with golden outer edges and inner edges covered by a prominent trimming of gray fur that appears similar to a feather boa over a short, cream top, leaving his muscular upper abdominals exposed. His arms are covered by dark blue gloves reaching up to his mid-bicep, with their upper edges being adorned by light gray bands hanging down. He wears loose, cream-colored pants held up by suspenders, which are attached to the pants' loops by golden square-shaped rings. Over them, he dons distinctive dark blue galosh like boots that reaches up to his thighs and attach to the upper edge of his pants. A smirk present on his face as he walks into the arena.

As with every other battle, the gong was hit signaling the beginning of the battle. Sting's smirk would have gotten bigger if that were even possible. Making the first move, Sting joined the open palms of his hands together, with all the fingers on one hand in contact with the corresponding ones on the other hand, and then separated his palms while keeping the fingers in contact through their tips. Light was generated in the hollow part between his hands, expanding from the holes between his fingers. At this point, the White Dragon Slayer completely separates his hands, extending them horizontally at his body's sides as the light he generated takes the form of a large sphere, from which a number of white rays are fired towards the Wizard Saint, who used Talus to create rock pillars around him to protect himself from the incoming attack. After several attacks from both sides, Sting launched forward again.

"White Dragon's Claw!" Sting generated a sphere of light around one of his left hand and then fired it at Jura, and it surprisingly connects with his body tears through his kimono and blackening his chest area, leaving a light, complex marking on it - Otherwise known as a stigma - causing his body to become unmovable as Sting performs his finishing move, White Dragon's Roar.

As the smoke clears up, Jura is seen on the ground as Sting stands away from with a smirk. The crowd was silent as they tried to understand what had happened, until they slowly began to cheer loudly.

"No way! Sting just defeated Wizard Saint Jura Neekis! Unbelieveable!" Chapati screamed with excitement as Yamaji and Master Hiro remained silent, thinking about the odd battle.

"With this battle over, the first day of the Grand Magic Games has been concluded with the following scores. In first place with twenty-four points is Raven's Oath, with Sabertooth and Mermaid Heel tied in second place with twenty-two points each. In three place is Fairy Tail with thirteen points. Fourth place is taken by Lamia Scale with twelve points, while Blue Pegasus is in fifth place with five points. Orochi's Fin is in sixth place with four points, leaving Quatro Cerbersus dead last with one point."

With the day's events over, everyone began to leave to arena to head back to their inns. While heading to their respective inns, Team Lamia Scale and Team Raven's Oath happened to cross paths, passing by each other. As Shiro - who was surprisingly awake - passed by Jura, she let out her confusion that has been bothering her since his battle against Sting.

"I don't understand why you let that dragon slayer win? Perhaps you have more compassion than you let on." Shiro stated with a bored tone as she stood in the doorway.

"Perhaps you care more than you let on." Jura silently countered as he continued walking behind his team.

"You'll never know." The tone Shiro used was something Jura couldn't pinpoint, but continued to walk with his team back to their inn for the night.

Instead of heading back to Moe Moe Inn, Team Raven's Oath headed back to The Laughing Hyena for a few drinks to celebrate their position - it was actually just to drink beer, but Master Hiro insisted that it was to celebrate- before heading back to the inn. Team Raven's Oath rested easy knowing that Raven's Oath was in the lead with twenty-four points.
