Chapter 8: The Endless Sky of Emotions

"At first, I did it because it was my duty to protect this beautiful scenery for the people, I painted it as an admonition but...instead I was soothed by it. By the infinite sky, which envelops everything...there is only happiness there. No dispute, sorrow and even status..." _

-Krom Raggs,

07 Ghost,

Chapter 86: Confession, (Page 23/24)

All was quiet in the Black Order, as everyone went about their business. Of course they knew that was very unusual, since something always would happen from Kanda fighting with someone to Koumi's robots.

"I'm all fired up!" Natsu yelled as fire surrounded his fists.

"Bring it on, fire freak." Kanda said provoking him.

Lenalee sighed. "There they go again. Natsu's almost as bad as Allen when it comes to Kanda."

"I know right. But it's so much fun watching a match." Lavi commented, sitting close to the door of the training room.

Lenalee sat next to him, watching the fight. Link watched a little farther away, writing more stuff down in his notebook.

She tried concentrating on the fight, but she would find herself averting her gaze and whole attention to Lavi, who was watching the match recording every single move Natsu used.

Since he was so into the fight he didn't noticed her stare at all. Lenalee marveled at Lavi's one green eye, he always had this cheerful glow in it. Even when he wasn't suppose to have emotion since he was a Bookman.

At that thought Lenalee became sadden and looked away, hugging her legs to her chest. She knew that. But despite knowing, she had fallen for his cheerful smile.

She hadn't even realized her feelings until...Lavi's eyes filled with tears for her, on the way to Edo. Her face turned bright red at that memory.

"Lenalee?" Lavi's voice snapped her back into reality, she tried to hide her blush.

"W-What is it?" She asked nervously since she had been just thinking about him.

"Are you okay? Your face is all red?" He asked almost innocently.

"Oh! Um...well." She nervously smiled. "I-It's n-nothing."

"Well then be careful. Who knows what would happen if Koumi heard you caught a cold." Lavi said grinning and turning back to the fight.

"Y-Yeah right..."

"Fire dragon's roar!" Natsu called out blasting fire from his mouth toward Kanda. He dodged and swinged Mugen toward him.

Natsu stopped his sword. "Lighting Flame Dragon's Fist!" Natsu yelled with lighting and fire forming around his fist. The onlookers and even Kanda became shocked as he was blown back by the force of the attack.

"Yeah! Alright I won! Hahaha..." Natsu then proceeded to faint.

They both sweat dropped. "What just happened?" Lavi asked.

"Kanda, are you okay?!" Lenalee asked.

"Che I'm fine. Stupid Fire Freak." Kanda positioned Mugen to where he was going to chop off Natsu's head.

"Kanda stop!" Lenalee cried out.

"Oi Yuu I'll tell Koumi about you kissing Lenalee if you don't stop!" Lavi yelled freezing Kanda from what he was about to do. Which would be way graphic. At least he wasn't gonna cut off a chicken's head.

"Baka Usagi...Die!" Kanda yelled chasing Lavi, who gotten a head start.

"Here we go again. Kanda really needs anger management classes." Lenalee sighed and followed Link, who was carrying Natsu, out of the training room.

Later...

"Wow! Are those fangs real!" Natsu said grinning.

"Y-Yeah." Kory said eating his tomato soup.

"So your a real vampire!"

"I-I guess..." Krory answered uncertain.

"Sweet! So do you like suck people's blood?"

"No! I would never! Only Akuma's blood." Krory replied reminding him of Eladie.

"So Natsu why did you faint like that?" Lavi asked, noticing Krory was becoming uncomfortable with all the questions.

"Well every time I use Lighting Fire Dragon attacks it uses up so much of my power that I faint in one go." Natsu explained. He then went onto how he gotten the powers.

Right in the middle of his story of the battle, something happened. "Oi Idiot Apprentice." A whole stack of paper's landed in front of him. "Pay for them will you?" A very drunk voice said.

Natsu turned around to see the one and only General Cross. "General Cross this isn't Allen." Lavi stated, knowing full well that Cross was drunk.

"Huh? But he has gray eyes and white hair. Are you sure Rabbit-boy?" Cross said drunkliy as his vision was blurred.

Lavi sweatdropped. "I'm positive."

"It sure looks like Allen to me." Cross replied looking at Natsu more closely.

Just then a gun was put to Natsu's head. "Who are you and what have you done to my Idiot Apprentice?"

"Achoo!"

"Allen, are you alright? Your not catching a cold are you?" Happy asked.

"I hope not." Allen stated biting into his sandwich as he sat on a blanket full of sand.

The Tenrou team had just been informed of the Magic games they held ever year. So they all went their separate ways to train. Allen had joined them since Natsu was gone and he needed some tips on fighting wizards.

Right now Erza was teaching him, she was the strongest and didn't need that much training.

A sword was suddenly thrust into the middle of the sandwich. "Hey! I was eating that!" Allen said with his mouth full, trying to get the sandwich back.

"Break time is over, you've ate enough already. Besides your enemy won't wait for you to finish." Erza stated as stuck her sword in the other food that Allen was trying to eat.

Allen sighed and held his still growling stomach. "But I'm still hungry..."

Erza looked over at the food pile beside him, that he had been eating for a hour and haven't made a dent in yet. She couldn't believe that such a skinny boy could be such a glutton.

She then got an idea. Erza smirked triumphantly as she scathed up the sandy blanket from underneath him and wrapped up all the food in it. She then proceeded to store the food into one of the dimensions that she kept her weapons and armor in.

Allen didn't hesitate to bring out Crown Clown. "If you want your food back. Then you'll have to defeat me." Erza stated bring out her sword and getting into a defense position.

He then brought out his sword at that notion.

They then both clashed their swords together with a long clang.

Happy and Carla watched from the sidelines. "I've never seen someone match Erza's style so much." Carla said watching the fight closely.

"Aye! But Erza right now is going really easy on him. If she were to go full power, she would blow him away in one blow." Happy replied. "And besides you can tell Allen's not that great with fighting with swords. His sword is so huge that it throws off his accuracy and balance when fighting with a swordsmen like Erza, who's fighting with a smaller sword."

The battle went on for quite some time, to where everyone else was cheering and watching the fight too. "Go Erza or Allen!" Lucy cheered. "It's so hard to not cheer for them both."

"Aye!"

"Yeah but I think cheering for Allen would be more better, since Erza is too strong." Gray said.

"That's true..." Wendy replied.

A second later Allen fell back on the sand exhausted. "Ha...ha...ha..." He tried to get his breathing back in order. "I...give up..."

Erza sat in front of him, setting down a huge stack of food. "No you won, Allen."

"Eh?"

"I haven't had a training session like that in years." She held out her hand. "That was a good fight."

Allen shook her hand and smiled. "Yeah it was."

"Dinner!" Erza called out as everyone started to dig into the food before Allen could.

"Hey! Wait! That's not fair!" Allen yelled.

Erza smiled as she took some doughnuts for herself. "Lesson One: Nothing is ever fair in battle."

Everyone laughed and soon Allen joined in with the feast.

Road couldn't stop thinking about how happy Allen had seemed fighting Erza. Jealously set in her and promised to herself that before this training session was over, she would make Allen fall for her.

So that maybe even if it was just for a minute, she would be able to freely love him in this world with no such things as Noahs or Exorcists.

The feast lasted till the last ray of light disappeared in the endless blue sky. tomorrow would start a adventure that nobody would forget.

A/N: I hoped you enjoyed this chapter! Sorry for not updating like I said I would every Friday. I've been so busy with homework and other things that's it's not even funny. Besides I've been really having some major writer's block since School is just frying my brain. I actually started writing this chapter on Friday and didn't get done with Natsu's part till Saturday or Sunday. And I just finished Allen's part right now.

If you read the Fairy Tail manga then you know what I'm heading towards in Allen's part but even if you watch the Anime only, you would still get it. Since they started on the Magic Games Arc finally. I'm so happy about that. I'm even more happier finding out that Lavi's and Kanda's voice actors voice Rouge and Sting, now that was a shock for me. Can't wait to see the Dragon battle in Anime form, now that'll be a real treat.

Sorry I'm talking too much again. So thanks to RoxyStar05, Mukuro234, Kyoya kumo, CrazySarahify, Alice walker48, and Nadine Ng for reviewing. (Funny Nadine is my middle name, that's such a weird coincidence.) See ya next chapter! Read and Review Please!

P.S.

Starting around December to Easter break I will be extremely busy with a huge make up test for school and with a youth group church thing. And yes I do go to church. I wonder if anyone caught that I haven't even said a single bad word in any of my fanfics. ...Probably not.
