As promised, a chapter every Friday. I would like to thank everybody who reviewed my story. It was very enlightening, and hey! I have 50 reviews now! Oh my gosh, I am so happy right now. I was so happy I tried to update early but I went to see the Avengers double feature yesterday and was busy dreaming up fanfictions that I probably won't write for a LOOOOOONNNNGGG time, but were interesting all the same. So, I'm gonna stop boring you and get to the interesting shtuff.

"Tell you what, worms." Gajeel growled. "Hand over Lucy Heartfilia and we'll leave you in peace." He gestured to his friends, who took off their hoods, revealing the Element 4.
"She is a part of our guild, we would never betray her like that!" Erza shouted. Nobody noticed how Aria slipped away and somehow got behind Erza.
"Air space, drain!" He yelled as Erza cried out and had her magic power stripped away from her. The magic circles around her disappeared and she fell to the ground.
"Erza!" Cana jumped into action, only to be stopped by a metal rod slamming her into the big maple tree nearby.
"Now, now, let's not be hasty. We just want the blonde brat to go home." Gajeel smiled.
Lucy's eyes flashed at those words. "Virgo, I think Metal Man and Bandage Boy need to be punished."
"As you wish." Virgo said, her eyes turning red. She then ran at Gajeel and continuously punched him in the face until he was near unconscious. She was winding up to punch him again when a wave of water pushed her off.
"Juvia doesn't like it when people mess with her friends." The bluenette growled, glaring at the Maiden. She made another wave of water and flung it at Virgo.
"Open, Gate of the Water Bearer! Aquarius!" A golden circle appeared in the water and a beautiful, pissed off mermaid appeared.
"Don't start with me, just attack her!" Lucy growled, pointing at Juvia.
"Whatever, just don't call me for another week. I'm going on vacation. With my boyfriend. And he's hot." Aquarius snarled, then whipped her jar around and smacked Juvia away with a string of water. Virgo had gone back to the celestial world.
Cana glared at the man across from her bragging about how hot his fire was.
"Would you SHUT UP for once?!" She finally snarled. "I have a hangover, thank you very much."
"Oh dear, you seem a little hot-tempered. Of course, your temper couldn't be as hot as my fire, nothing is." Totamaru smirked.
"You are SOOOOOO gonna wish you had never said that." She growled, reaching into her bag and chucking some cards at him.
He made a wall of fire and the cards went up in flames before they touched him. "Nothing is resistant to my hot flames." He bragged.
While he was busy bragging, Cana had grabbed another card and chucked it at him, exploding pepper spray into his eyes and dousing him in water.
"Burns, doesn't it?" She sniffed.
He growled and tried to set himself on fire, only to realize he was soaked and any attempt at fire quickly turned to smoke. Then Cana quickly used another card that knocked him out. She heard a scream and sprinted towards the source. Levy.
A few moments ago, Levy was having trouble dealing with Sol. He kept darting above and into the ground.
"Solid script! Fire!" She shouted as she saw him dart into her sight. He quickly melted back into the floor, leaving Levy panting as her spell destroyed what seemed to be the last shrubbery.
"Now, now, you have such a pretty face, I would hate to ruin it." A voice said from behind her. She whipped around to see Gajeel talking to her as Sol formed behind him. "So why don't you just hand over the Barbie?"
Levy gripped her aching side where Sol had gotten a hit in. "Never." She growled through clenched teeth.
He shrugged. " Have it your way." He lifted his hand up and a metal rod slammed her into a nearby park bench. Levy felt her rib give under the pressure and a sickening snap followed by a squelching noise.
Levy cried out and started gasping for air, suddenly finding it very hard to breathe. It was almost as if... "Oh god, he gave me a punctured lung." She thought to herself as she looked up at Gajeel in fear.
As she realized Sol was nowhere to be seen, she fell through the ground and it hardened around her. It reminded her of when... no, she refused to think about her past. She struggled when the earth gave her no breathing room and it grinded painfully against her ribs.
"Struggling will just make this next part more painful." The sickening smile looked down on her and she shuddered but listened and stopped struggling and found he was right. She could breathe easier now. Then the earth moved and broke her legs.
She screamed and Cana came sprinting and tackled Gajeel and slammed her knuckle into his temple, efficiently knocking him out and she got up. She took ou one of her cards and the earth around Levy turned to water and she helped her out carefully.
"No, no, no. It was not a good move to knock out two of my team members, mademoiselle." He glared at Cana.
"Really? It felt great." Cana smiled eerily. "It is always more fun to hurt people who hurt your friends though." She cracked her knuckles.
"Yes, it is. So I would find it very fun to hurt you, right?" Sol asked, melting and appearing a few feet away as he punched her hard in the gut. He grinned as she sputtered for breath. "Oh yes, very fun." He suddenly tilted his head to the side as if listening to something. "Now if you'll excuse me, I must be going, we should have more fun like this later." He said it in a way that made it obvious they would be seeing each other very soon before he melted into the ground, taking Gajeel with him.
As Cana regained her breath, she looked around and realized why he had left. His other buddies were gone. As was Lucy.
She cursed so bad a sailor would be jealous under her breath.
So, have I gotten better at fight scenes? Yes, no, maybe so? You should review and tell me. I'll even accept simple smiley and/or frowny faces.
