That night Wendy was released from the healing center and allowed to participate in the games. Thank god because Orga can talk a mean game but when it comes down to a fight he is nothing to anybody who has common sense. Wendy still wouldn't tell anyone anyone exactly who attacked her even though I already knew. However, I let this fact go unknown to the others in the guild.
Raven Tail would not be feeling the wrath of Sabertooth but of Lucy Heartfilia herself. They had messed with my baby and would see how bad it is to piss of a female dragon slayer with mad nesting instincts. The third day of the games was about to get interesting. The first event had three dragon slayers in it. I had to stifle a laugh when the event was revealed as the Chariot races. Sting, Gajeel, and Natsu visible paled before the event even started.
I already expected the three-dragon slayers to come last but, I had hoped Sting would beat Natsu. During the whole race I tried to keep myself composed. The rules had changed the other day, so know all the teams had to stay in the same area during the games. I stood as far as possible from everyone except for Rogue and Wendy. During the race Mira had tried to come over to talk to Wendy but thankfully some girl from Blue Pegasus distracted her. Just I had started to relax a little ,Sting came running with tears in his eyes.
His eyes quickly scanned the room and when he spotted me he launched himself at me, successfully throwing me off balance. "I'm sorry I promised that I won't let Natsu-san win again". I still held the silence that I had adopted since the news of the teams being required to wait together. I settled with a simply petting Sting on the head to show him all was well. Ever since that kiss in the hallway things had been a little tense between us. Slowly but surely we were making our way back to normal. Stings laughter broke my train of thoughts. "Hey anyone ever tell you that your boobs are pretty damn soft." That's when I realized that i was still laying on the floor with Sting sprawled out on top of me.
Six angry hisses along with me shoving Sting off was his only answer. Wendy and Rogue had hissed because they always got mad when Sting said pervy things to me. I of course also hissed because people complimenting me like that was not appropriate for Wendy's ears. However, i looked in the direction of other three hisses to find three very pissed and confused fairy tail dragon slayers.
NATSU'S POV
After the chariot race Gajeel and I were pretty damn happy that neither one of us was completely last. But I quickly got pissed when I saw Sting laying on top of the girl with the white hoodie. I'm not sure why this made me so mad. I shouldn't care what goes on between the Sabers. When I met up with my team, Lisanna jumped into my arms. Ever since that Flare girl beat her up she had been clinging to me like a magnet. I was just about to tell the ice princess off on one of his snide comments when I heard it. Sting had just commented on his team mates breasts.
At hearing this my blood began to boil and my muscles tensed. I could not stop the hiss that i released. What surprised me were the hisses that accompanied mine. Erza was yelling at me for frightening Lisanna with my hiss, but I wasn't listening. I was too busy sharing a look with Laxus and Gajeel who had also hissed. What confused me was why only the dragon slayers felt so protective if this girl. I walked off leaving Erza really pissed for leaving mis rant. Gajeel and Laxus joined me to confront the girl when we saw blondie again which without fail pissed us off again.
That's when the girl in the hoodie looked up and spotted us again. Her body tensed then she somehow scrambled off the floor without turning her head away. I wish she would remove the hoodie because it blocked her face and hid her hair away. Our silent stare down ended when the pumpkin man announced the next match between Mira and Kelly. We had only looked away for a moment but she had somehow disappeared.
LUCY'S POV
The second they looked away I made a run for it. I faded into the shadows only to reappear in the darkened hallway out of detection of others. My mind was reeling I had to be much more careful of how the dragon slayers saw me. I wandered around the arena for a couple of hours before I ran into Ivan. He was in his normal apparel and and was smirking down at me. "Little girl I believe that you have absolutely no idea who you are messing with. Raven Tail was a dark guild started for the mere purpose of defeating Fairy Tail. We have no problem clearing our path of little girls who do not know their place."
A few seconds of silence passed before the laughter that I had been holding back escaped. "There is where your problem lies Ivan you only wish to defeat them. I wish to destroy them both mentally and physically. Ivan if you stand in my way I will hurt everyone that you ever cared for in anyway." While warning him I willed the shadows to creep forward and embrace me. Ivan took a step back his poker face falling revealing a look of fear.
The pumpkin man's voice came on over the P.A system calling for Kagura of Mermaid Heel and the Dragon Tamer of Sabertooth. I tilted my head back allowing Ivan to get a glimpse of my face. "Well duty calls nice talk Ivan." He stayed standing there in a stunned silence as he realized who I was now and who I used to be.
Walking away from him to prepare myself for the Arena I ran into Wendy. The little dragon slayer was breathing hard and seemed to have been trying to sniff me out. "Lucy be careful Kahura is supposed to be up to par with Erza." "Wendy I have a feeling this fight will be memorable. So please watch carefully." with those words I entered the Arena.
