Just when I got my computer back. It crashed again! :'C Waah~! I had to get it fixed again! I'm so sorry!
Chapter fourteen.
Onix's POV
A pair of hands shot towards my mouth by the slight ear-splitting scream I'd released. The boy in front of me looked slightly shocked I was there, and then it melted into minor amusement.
"You know, if you wanted me to notice you, you could have taken your top off" He stated smirking and looking south of my face. Even though it was a black and blue blouse, it felt as though he could see through it. Turning red out of anger and embarrassment, I pushed him further away from me.
"You perve!" I yelled wrapping my clothed arms around my chest only to push my twins further above the neckline. Without the royal cloak, I felt almost naked. Oh god, why didn't I bring it?
A shadow flickered in the corner of my eyesight. I tracked it until my eyes rested on a person with shaggy black hair. My heart clenched, I knew him but from where?
I found myself staring a tad longer than I'd hoped. Blondie snapped me out of my trance by speaking out. "So why is an non-mage like yourself doing here?"
Feeling bare, I returned the gaze before his statement sunk in. He didn't know I was a mage. That wasn't bad. "Some guy with pink hair stole my purse and told me if I wanted it, I'd have to find it in here" I lied perfectly. Might as well set up some kind of false accusations. I smiled to myself and looked back to the boy leaning against one of the stone pillars.
"My name's O-live" I said, changing my mind at the last second.
"I'm Sting" Blondie replied, taking up my lead, "And the dude acting like a loner over there, is Rogue"
Simultaneously, two flying...things came charging towards me. I dodged before snatching the two creatures up by their two...legs?
"And who might you be?" I asked politely, avoiding the fact I was holding them like pieces of meat.
"The one dressed like a frog is Frosch the other is Lector" Rogue explained walking to beside Sting not taking his arms away from his chest.
"It's a pleasure to meet you!" I beamed smiling brightly like Lucy would have and cocked my head. If I hadn't been what I was, I wouldn't have been able to see a distinct colour of pink flash over Sting's cheeks. My grin grew wider when I noticed it. I swung round and began to search for the familiar purple satin material.
"You know, we could help you" Sting offered from behind me. I craned my head and bit back a girlish giggle. What was wrong with me?
"I'd like that. Thanks"

Lucy's POV (Yeah, I'm finally using them! :D)
I woke with a yelp of pain. Something, or someone had thought it would be a good idea to wake me up by dropping a book on my face. Groaning and opening my eyes further, with a hand to my nose to check if it was bleeding, I saw Eden staring down at me with her stoic expression.
"Oh, morning Edie" [Edee] I said impersonating the Cheshire cat.
"Don't call me that" She ordered in that soft tone that was only shown to her closest sisters. Meaning the Saints, Onix and I.
"Okay" I agreed sweat-dropping at the glare I was receiving, "Sorry"
A smile cracked at her pink lips as she ripped the duvet hiding my body from the world away from me and exposing me to the cold air.
"It's time to get up Lucy. Everyone's already at the Tournament House" She explained before collecting her books, pulling her white hood over her hair and exiting my room.
I gave a nervous laugh and got to work. I pulled open the suitcase that had L.H written on it and took out my battle outfit. It was exactly the same to Onix's, except hers had blue where mine had purple. The black tank top fit like a glove as it covered my flesh, stopping at my last rib bone. Black and purple army styled shorts where what came out next.
Giving a heaving sigh, I finally had wedged the black heel boots that came up to my knees onto my feet and drapped my royal coat around my shoulders and stepped out into the streets. My shoes made a tapping sound as they hit the pavement. My hair was secured so that no strands would make their way into my eyes.
My team were already sparring with each other when I reached the stadium that I'd be visiting frequently for the next two months. Onix spotted me first and pointed to Eden, probably saying to continue with her. She bounced up to me happier than normal.
"Are you okay?" I asked giggling slightly. Big black eyes looked back at me as their owner nodded excitedly. Man, either this girl was high or in love...no way!

Normal POV
Rosie and Ruki had decided to partner up for the first round and were already making their way into the center of the arena, waiting for their opponents as the crowd cheered.
The entire group from Demon Tears felt comfort as the inseparable girls waved to them as two other people came out. Lucy frowned at the Fairy Tail guild members that took up the opportunity.
Wendy and Gajeel.
"At least we know this won't be long" Anya commented before turning back to Princess to continue their conversation. Already, the girls had found their perfect best friend out of their circle. And that only made their Mistress' happier.
A sound suspiciously like a mic dropping resonated through the circular building startling many.
"Ladies and Gentlemen. Day 1 of the Guild Games will commence! Today is Round 1, the Battle for Placement! Standing before us is Gajeel and Wendy from Fairy Tail and...Unnamed people from Demon Tears I guess. When you hear the cannon, the fight will start!"
The voice annoyed Iris as she painted her nails red next to Eden who had her nose in a book. What did it matter that their names weren't given? It wasn't like they needed to know.
Lucy leaned over the railings and focused on specific areas, knowing they would play key to Ruki and Rosie's success. Onix placed a hand on the blondes back who looked a bit surprised at the sudden contact.
"Where'd you go?" Came her question to which the Hex Dispeller merely smiled.
"Just gave the girls some advice" She shrugged. A loud boom sounded throughout the Coliseum-Poser drawing everyone's attention to the small place where the four figures stood.
"That normally means you cursed them in some way"
"Correct!"
...
Ruki and Rosie looked at the metal man in their eyesight. So far they could tell the smaller girl was a better and easier opponent, meaning they'd take her out first. Smirking under their hoods, the two Fairy Slayers decided on spurring up a conversation before the canon went off.
"So..." They started in unison, "What magic do you two use?"
Metal-freak scoffed and replied with pride, "Dragon slaying. You?"
Rosie and Ruki let out a laugh of amusement, "We're slayers too! Just not Dragon"
A noise that reminded the four of a canon shot through their chit-chat.
