Chapter 2: WinnerBoss, LoserServant
Monday
"I'll let you guys make your own rules. Here are the games the teachers have decided. Quiz, swimming contest, stripping contest, curry eating contest, ice-cream eating contest, singing contest and finally, the drama contest! " Erza announced as she held the paper which contains everything to be done."
"Mira, did just said 'stripping' contest?" Mira shook her head to Lucy.
"Nope. She said script contest. Well...that means we have to memorize many scripts I think."
"But it sounded like she said strip..." Lucy insisted.
"My, Lucy-san. Do yo want to strip so much in front of your boyfriend?" Mira covered her mouth as she wow-ed and blushed lightly and looks at her blonde friend with amazement.
"I DON'T!" Lucy replied with a reddened face and quickly defend her body with her arms.
"Well Lucy, said script." Mira insisted. She doesn't sound mad though because of the amusement she could get from Lucy. "Might be strip too." Mira chuckled.
"But I swear I heard her say stripping contest..." Lucy said to herself and sighed.
"Wait, there isn't suppose to be drama contest..." Erza take a look at her paper again. "Sorry guys, I have mistakenly wrote this as contest. You'll have to work with each other's team and make a drama of your own. Outsiders will come to see. So do your best to bring honour to Fairy High!" Everyone cheered and started chatting with each other excitedly about the contest and all. Except for one.
Levy was staring intently biting her thumbnail as her eyes followed everywhere he moved. The more he tried to hide himself from her, the more she gets herself near him. The metal punk student noticed the stare she gave him and tried to avert his gaze from her by hiding wherever he can.
"What the hell did I do?! And why am I hiding? I know I didn't do anything! " Gajeel thought. Unbeknownst to him, the two brats that were chosen for his team high fived each other and tried to hold their laugh.
"He's finally going down!" Jet whispered while laughing.
"And he is going down!" Droy responded. Unfortunately, their secret discussion is heard by the silver haired lady.
Lucy stopped her chatting with Mira as she turned to Levy who's looking at her prey, ready to be killed. She makes her way to Levy and the short girl walks off from her spot leaving Lucy ended up chasing her, Levy still biting her thumbnail. The blonde chased her and tapped Levy on the shoulder making her turned back.
"Levy...? You okay?" The blonde asked with a worried expression on her face. Levy, still with the biting and all, searched for her prey and told Lucy about something that made her really angry. She stopped biting and pointed Gajeel wherever he moves.
"That. Person. Hid. My. BOOK!" Gajeel seemed to hear this and he shouted back.
"Da hell?! Why would I want to do that, shrimp?"
"Because you wanted to bully people shorter than you! Besides, who would have done it if it's not YOU?" Levy showed him the finger and stuck out her tongue.
"Levy...Stop it already..." Lucy tried to calm the situation down but was ignored. She keep trying but the two just wouldn't give the attention to her. She gave up sighing and walk away from the fight and Natsu came running ready to punch Gajeel in the face but he was given the punch first and flew to the wall. Meh, nobody can do anything but cheer and making bets.
"I have better things to do than bullying you shorty! I don't have time for child play!" Gajeel points Levy as he shouted. The bickering started to grew and captured everyone's attentions. Students in the hall are now circling the two and cheering and all. Not realizing the angry footsteps of one coming, the cheering and fighting stops and were given a whole lot of lectures of 30 minutes.
"Ms. Scarlet, I overhead that Jet and Droy were the ones to hid Levy's book. " Mira interrupted with her usual smile. Juvia took a few steps away from Mira. Erza stopped her preaching.
"Juvia is not going to believe that angelic face..." The blue head thought while giving a glare at Mira. Mirajane noticed Juvia looking at her and smile as she waved towards Juvia which made her flinch making the blue head waved her in fear.
"We're dead meat..." Jet whispered to Droy as he was standing firmly on his spot while Erza was walking towards the duo.
"This is your fault..." Droy replied.
"But this is your idea!" Jet whispered harsly to Droy and his saliva splashed out. Eew.
"if you haven't agreed to do it we wouldn't be dead! And your saliva is disgusting!"
"What?!"
"What, what?!"
"WHAT ARE YOU WHISPERING?"
"AAH!" The two crossed their fingers as they jumped and shrieked in horror. Erza pulled their ears and they had to follow her out. "I was just thinking about the games and these two people just had to ruin my stage. I'm gonna make you two sorry for what you did." She said coldly. The two couldn't do anything and were dragged to her office as their eyes flowed a stream of tears.
Levy glued her eyes to her friends that were dragged outside. She felt guilty towards Gajeel because everything he told her was true. She have to say sorry. Levy turned around and Gajeel already walked away mumbling things angrily with his hands in his pocket. Levy had her eyebrows down.
"Tch! Damn those two! Tryin' ta frame me and all..." Then, he stopped walking when he was currently blocked by the short blue headed girl. Her head were down and her eyes are set on his shoes and then the floor. She slowly looked up and find Gajeel was giving Levy the annoyed stare. His head is up but his eyes are looking down on her. Angrily.
"U-um...Just now..." She started and look away.
"What?" Gajeel asked in his angered tone.
"I-I'm sorry..." She said in such a low voice that the wind is ever louder than her voice.
"I hear nothing, shrimp. Come one, say it quickly and scram out of my face and stop wasting my time already." Gajeel was being too harsh on Levy and hurt her. Levy burst into tears and punched Gajeel in his stomach making him producing the sound "OOF!" and she ran away.
"You are the worst Gajeel!" She shouted. Gajeel touched his punched stomach. He never thought it would be that painful.
"Gajeel-san." He turned back.
"What? Oh. It's only you, Juvia."
"Levy-san only wants to say sorry. You don't have to be so harsh on her." Juvia replied.
"Tch. She do? I see no effort made back there." He looked into the direction Levy ran just now.
"Gajeel-san, Juvia has known you long enough. But try to be nice to everyone. Since they were nice to us even after we hurt their friends. They even accepted us into Fairy High."
"Can't you see I'm being nice by joining the system squad in this school?" He growled.
"Juvia will if you take some time to find Levy-san and apologise to her." Juvia flashed a smile.
"Tch. You're making me work a little too much..." But he went searching for Levy anyway as he ran towards the direction Levy went. It made Juvia laughed and glad. Her friend is a bit friendlier than he is back then and is helpful too.
"That tsundere boy is so hard to take care of." She said to herself and giggled. The hall door opens but she doesn't care as she still had her eyes to that direction her friend went to coax a girl.
The pink haired went to his friend and greeted him with his grin.
"What? You actually came, huh?" Natsu asked as he put his hands around his shoulder.
"I,uh, changed my mind. What? What about it?" He replied and shrugged Natsu's arm off his shoulder. Juvia turned and saw him. Her Gray-sama. Her eyes becomes the heart instantly.
"Ah...I thought you were too ignorant. I can't believe you actually came, Gray." Natsu said again.
"Heh. I came because I heard there were going to be a singing competition. I wanted to participate in playing the guitar. I'm thinking of testing the new electric guitar I bought."
"Woah, that's cool. Show me your baby later! Oh yeah, my team is short on people. 3. Yeah."
"What does that have to do with me?" Gray smirked. Ah, Juvia has become a liquid squirming on the floor. It's looking rather creepy...(from what the writer had imagined...*laughs nervously*)
"Gray-sama's smile is really gorgeous it melted Juvia's heart right away!" Juvia thought. Mira kneeled next to Juvia and smile.
"So it's Gray, huh?" Mira looked at Gray and look at Juvia who were back to the usual body form.
"W-what Gray-sama?" Juvia backed a little. This demon like beauty is really dangerous. Her tremendous aura was surrounding Mirajane and her sweet smile was still on her face. She's smiling at Juvia and the blue headed student found it scary.
"Gray-sama? My, you loved him that much, huh? Mira-chan is really eager to help you now." Mira giggled and took both Juvia's hands. Juvia tried her best to release her hands from the demon-human like grip but to no avail. Mira talked and talked about the best way to win a guy's heart and get him and all and it made Juvia bored. As much as she was exactly a bit excited she got bored right away.
Mira took no notice of Juvia and continued preaching happily. Juvia still had her hands stuck in Mira's though.
"Be in your team?"
"Well, didn't you rejected the offer I gave you earlier?"
"Dude, no. When?"
"Gray, I asked you in the studio while you were tuning the guitar."
"I have told you so MANY times before, don't ask me anything if I'm tuning my guitars!"
"Urgh! It's the same thing again and again! You're just like Erza!" Gray's heart were pounding suddenly when he heard her name mentioned.
" ? What about her?" The concerned look was on his face.
"That 'I have told you so MANY times before' sentence is practically the same! Are you guys connected or something? Geez." Natsu rolled his eyes and put both arms behind his head. Gray was thinking about her.
"So is the one in charge. Won't hurt if I agree to join this contest thingy. That way, I can see her closely." Gray clench his hand.
"So about my team-" Natsu was cut off by Gray.
"I'll join." Gray responded as he put both hands in his pocket.
"Great! One more person!"
"One? I thought you said you lack three of us? Isn't that supposed to be two?"
"Hmm...Not really. Only Jet was chosen but then Droy had to follow because he doesn't want to lose to him. But they're both disqualified automatically because they harassed Erza's job. They are in her office now. "
"I would like to join this group of yours, Natsu." A lovely voice heard. It was Loke. The most popular male students that always drove every woman into the madness with his charms. He fixed his glasses(?) as he make his way to Natsu.
"That's great. Loke, you're in." Natsu tapped his shoulder. "Everyone! I have thought up of a new rule!"
"What?" Lucy asked.
"Long time no see, my love~" Loke took Lucy's hand and kissed it gently only to be punched by Natsu in the face.
"We're in the same class..." Lucy sweat dropped while Natsu hugged her tightly growling to Loke.
"Don't touch what's mine!"
"What? Are you saying Lucy is your girlfriend? No! I must have let my guard down...It's my fault!" Loke pulled his hair and kneeled on the floor in frustration. (not really frustrated, but it's what the writer thought it would look best) "But, I, as a gentleman will surrender to my friend." Loke stand up and bowed to them. Natsu released Lucy and continued with his ideas.
"We've been together since 3 years ago...And he's even in the same class..." Lucy talked to herself and sighed.
"How about...the winner gets to be the boss, as the loser will be the slave? But only one from our team will play the role of the boss and slave." Natsu suggested.
"Cool! Sounds fun." Lucy squealed.
"J-Juvia a-a-agrees." Juvia stuttered because of Gray. Natsu was in front of Juvia, his back against her and Gray was in front of Natsu looking at the pink haired brat. Juvia had greatly mistaken that Gray was looking at her and blushed madly.
"I'm into it." Mira said with a smile.
"Then, Gajeel..." Natsu looked around searching for the metal punk brat. "Where the hell is Gajeel now?" He asked.
"Now that you said it..." Lucy were also searching for her bookworm friend. "Levy's not here too." She continued with a worried expression. "Let's go find them-"
"You don't need to, Lucy." Mira suddenly said.
"But we need both of them."
"They'll come back soon. I promise. They just had to do something due to what I had witnessed back then." Mira reassured them. Lucy, who is not yet suspecting anything, had her faith in Mira's words and continued the meetings.
In Erza's office
"Tell me exactly why do you both need to mess with other people? Not to mention you wasted my time as well." Erza asked in a low tune of her voice as she took the sword display on her wall and wipe it shine, making Jet and Droy shivering in the wrath of the red haired lady looking at the giant sword.
"We can't possibly tell her it was Mira's idea..." Jet whispered.
"But she did say that it would plummeting Gajeel down!" Droy whispered back.
"I'm guessing you two have whispering as hobbies." Erza points her sword to both of them and they shrieked.
I forgot this...I do not own Fairy Tail! And all it's characters. They all belong to Hiro Mashima-sensei, the one creator of our favourite anime...Fairy Tail! *cheering and whistling sound* IF I own them I would already make the couples official! Hey, if you guys had any ideas on how the next chapter should work, PM me okay? I'm just moving on to Ch3 and I'm almost running out of ideas. What? I hate thinking...=3= Anyway, if you have come up with a great idea, just PM me and I'll see how it goes!
