CHAPTER 3

DISCLAIMER: HIRO MASHIMA OWNS FAIRYTAIL. I DO NOT OWN ALL SONGS BELOW!

Normal POV

It was about 7 in the morning when Freed arrived at the guild. He headed straight for Mira, who was preparing breakfast.

"Good morning, Mira-sama."

"Good Morning Freed!" Mira said with a confused look on her face, interrupting with another question. "So Freed, I was wondering why Laxus didn't have a shirt on yesterday when he came into the guild?"

"Honestly, I don't have an answer to that q-….." Freed was trying to finish when another voice chimed in.

"I accidentally spilled coffee on him yesterday morning, so I took his shirt off because it was soaked." Lucy interrupted innocently.

"I didn't know you two were dating! When is the wedding?!" Mira got the most evil glare.

"WHAT!?" both Freed and Lucy yelled.

"Would you be able to take Laxus his breakfast?" Mira asked a little flustered with her morning chores. While rushing around, she shoved a plate of food and a cup of coffee into Freeds' hands.

"u-um, sure." Freed said, taken off guard, but always eager to help his crush out.

Freed proceeded to the top floor, having already memorized the entire way to his idols office.

*KNOCK KNOCK*… There was no answer at the door, so Freed decided to just open it. He found a drooling Laxus at his desk with papers under his head, whom was saying words under his breath but nothing worth hearing.

"….on't .uch..izzz…ine….u-c-y," Laxus mumbled.

I wonder what Laxus was saying in his sleep. He seemed to be getting restless. I hope my dear Laxus-sama isn't having a nightmare. Oh, look at him… Freed laughed at how cute he was when he slept, especially with the drool hanging out of his mouth. This was a sight that hardly any body got to see of Laxus. Unfortunately for Freed, he was a little loud.

"What are you laughing at, Freed?" Laxus said threw gritted teeth, pronouncing each word with a hint of venom in his voice.

"Good morning Laxus-sama! Mira-sama asked me to bring you-your breakfast up." said Freed with an innocent smile.

"Dammit. I fell asleep at the guild again huh? I better get home and get ready real quick." Laxus said. "Oh, Freed, will you do me a favor and get me a job from the s-class board?"

"Sure, Laxus-sama!" Freed said a little too ecstatically, which had Laxus a bit worried what Freed may be scheming. Laxus nodded a 'thanks', shrugging off his concern, he finished his breakfast and left in a flash of lightning to his house.

Lucy POV

I hope Mira don't ask me tons of questions about Laxus now. Geez, me and my big mouth are really gonna get me into huge trouble someday.

Mira then emerged from behind the counter, ran upstairs to masters' office, and stood at the top of the stairs.

"Minna! I have some important news! The list of contestants for tonight's competition is as follows:

1st Mira(me)*gestures to herself*

2nd Freed and Bixlow

3rd Levy and Gajeel

4th Lisanna

7th Happy

8th Master

Also note, that the winner will be announced tomorrow at noon and the judges will be Mira (ME)*gestures to herself, again*, Master, Erza, Gildarts, and Laxus and MUST get all five votes to win. Good luck to you ALL!" she exclaimed.

I sighed as I dropped my head onto the bar, feeling the nervousness. I thought Lisanna and Natsu were out on a mission! Oh Mavis, please don't let me shame myself in front of the guild. I'll just ask Mira.

Hey Mira, I thought Natsu and Lisanna were out on a mission?"

"Yeah they are but lisanna wanted me to put her on the list. She is going to try to make it tonight. If she doesn't than we will just skip her." She said happily. "Can I get you another shake lucy?"

"No thanks. But can I get tea with lemon and honey? Lucy said feeling her throat drying at the thought of singing tonight.

"Sure Lucy dear." Said Mira as she disappeared into the kitchen.

*timeskip to the concert*

Normal POV

"Shut up brats! May I have all the judges up to the front table?"

All the s-class mages went towards the table, except for master who was standing on the stage, hosting. All the mages were excited except for Laxus who looked a bit peeved. Cana must have noticed this because she passed him a huge mug of beer and he looked a little more content afterwards.

Its time for our first singer Mira!" master exclaimed as the curtains began to open.

Mira was standing with the mic in both of her hands and a band behind her.

Mira raised her index finger by her side, to signal she was ready.

Then the music started:

Love you like a love song by Selena Gomez

[Verse 1]

It's been said and done

Every beautiful thought's been already sung

And I guess right now here's another one

So your melody will play on and on, with the best of 'em

You are beautiful, like a dream come alive, incredible

A sinful, miracle, lyrical

You've saved my life again

And I want you to know baby

[Chorus]

I, I love you like a love song, baby

I, I love you like a love song, baby

I, I love you like a love song, baby

And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat

I, I love you like a love song, baby

I, I love you like a love song, baby

I, I love you like a love song, baby

And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat

[Verse 2]

Constantly, boy you play through my mind like a symphony

There's no way to describe what you do to me

You just do to me, what you do

And it feels like I've been rescued

I've been set free

I am hypnotized by your destiny

You are magical, lyrical, beautiful

You are... And I want you to know baby

[Chorus]

I, I love you like a love song, baby

I, I love you like a love song, baby

I, I love you like a love song, baby

And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat

I, I love you like a (love song baby) love song, baby

I, I love you like a (love song baby) love song, baby

I, I love you (I love you, I love you) like a love song, baby

And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat (like a love song)

[Bridge]

No one compares

You stand alone, to every record I own

Music to my heart that's what you are

A song that goes on and on

[Chorus]

I, I love you like a love song, baby

I, I love you like a love song, baby

I, I love you like a love song, baby

And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat

I, I love you like a love song, baby

I, I love you like a love song, baby

I, I love you like a love song, baby

I love you...like a love song...

Mira finished and everyone was clapping and screaming. After bowing, she left the stage and the curtain closed again to prepare for the next show.

Master than announced the next show, "Next up is Freed and Bixlow!" he yelled into the microphone. Laxus tried to hide a little but was completely unprepared for the next three minutes of his life.

Freed happily said, "This is my own song that I wrote called 'Laxus-sama'" Bixlow just made noises like he was about to burst from laughter, but continued on.

Laxus-sama is THE BEST

He is un-like the rest.

Because he loves us oh so much

Oh so much

Oh so much

That I just love his touch.

Touch

Touch

Touch

Laxus-saaaaammmmmmaaaa

Laaaaxusss-sssammmma

La- la- la- la- la- LAAXUS-SAAMAAAA.

It was like a horrible mix of rock music and cheerleading, but everyone was clapping so hard to mask the sound of their laughs. Freed thought that everyone enjoyed his song, and they DID, just not the same way he had. Laxus had his head turned so nobody could see the huge blush that swept across his face.

Next up was Levy and Gajeel. Levy did a cute song with Gajeel singing shoo be doo bops in the background lightly. Amazingly, it went quite well together and none of the guild was that pissed at Gajeel. Plus they wouldn't dare throw anything at Levy. They were clapped for at the end of their song. After Levy and Gajeels' show was Lisanna who showed up about ten minutes before she had to go up. She gave her cd of background music to her sister and grabbed Natsu and had him stand on the stage, as she started to sing to him.

"Loving Me For Me" by Christina Aguilera

People ask if I'm in love with you

Because I'm sitting here with your picture

And smiling to myself

I'm kinda lost in my own thoughts of you

My heart speaks before my mind thinks through

And I blush as I say yes

What a feeling of vulnerability coming over me

And I'm feeling weak and I can't speak

Never thought I'd give in so willingly to a human being

With abilities to set me free

Free, make me be me

Makes me want to say

Your lips, your love, your smile, your kiss

I must admit it's a part of me

You please me, complete me, believe me

Like a melody

Your soul, your flow, your youth, your truth is simply proof

We were meant to be

But the best quality thats hookin' me

Is that you're loving me for me

Is that you're loving me for me

People ask why I'm in love with you

Well, let me start by saying

You got my heart by just being who you are

And what we got is between me and you

It doesn't matter about the money I make

Or what I do, or that I'm a, huh, a star

Unconditionally you're there for me

Undeniably you inspire me, spiritually, so sweet

This is meaningful, is incredible, pleasurable, unforgettable

The way I feel, so sweet

Makes me want to say

Your lips, your love, your smile, your kiss

I must admit it's a part of me

You please me, complete me, believe me

Like a melody

Your soul, your flow, your youth, your truth is simply proof

We were meant to be

But the best quality thats hookin' me

Is that you're loving me for me

Is that you're loving me for me

Its so amazing how something so sweet

Has come and rearranged my life

I've been kissed by destiny

Oh, heaven came and saved me

An angel was placed at my feet

This isn't ordinary, he's loving me for me

Stripped of all make up, no need for fancy clothes

No cover ups, push ups

With him, I dont have to put on a show

He loves every freckle, every curve, every inch of my skin

Fulfilling me entirely, taking all of me in

He's real,he's honest, he's loving me for me

Yeah

After the song, Natsu kissed Lisanna and she blushed a deep red. Lucy could only look away, but she had known in her heart that they had been together for a while now. The guild clapped even harder as the two kissed, in excitement that two of their nakama had found love. Next was Lucy's turn to sing.

"Ladies and Gentleman, please put your hands together for Lucy Heartfillia!" Master introduced. Laxus sat a little higher in his chair trying not to show his eagerness. Natsu and Lisanna had been making out but Natsu stopped to hear Lucy's song and Lisanna was kind of irritated with him because of her jealousness of Lucy.

The curtain then opened and showed Lucy in an amazing black ball gown that sparkled in the light and showed off her cleavage.

She then spoke, "This song is..…If your not destined to have something or somebody, there is nothing that you can do that will ever be enough."(-Emeli Sande)"

"Enough"

I would run, and drop it all make impossible seem easy

I can jump however high if it takes for you to see me

I'm all you ever needed, why won't you believe it

Cause I'd make you happy, I promise

Yeah, I could be anything you wanted

Sick in love dreaming of running out to Vegas.

We won't fight if you don't like anything I'll change it

I'm all you ever needed why wont you believe it

Cause I'd make you happy, I promise.

I could be anything you wanted.

So I can't give anymore, your love is impossible

Cause it's still not me dancing with you in the dark

See I can't give enough

No appetite, I'm up at night having trouble sleeping

Exhausted from, hanging on to someone who can't see me

My heart is tired of breaking, why won't you just take it

Cause I could have anything you wanted, I could have been everything you wanted.

So I can't give anymore your love is impossible

Cause it's still not me dancing with you in the dark

See I can't give

I gave it all, all of my parts are there on the table

Oh I done it all, got nothing left in me

But nothing is ever enough

I can't give anymore, your love is impossible

Cause it's still not me dancing with you in the dark

And I can't give enough

I can't give anymore, your love is impossible

Cause it's still not me dancing with you in the dark

See I can't give enough, enough, enough

See I can't give enough

It was dead silent as everyone stared in awe at Lucy. Nobody had expected her to sing THAT good. Apparently, the only one that wasn't taken aback was Levy, Pantherlily, and Happy. Of course none of them bothered to mention that Lucy could actually sing quite beautifully.

Lucy: Wow, that felt good to get that off my chest. I can't believe I just sang that song to him and he is just staring at me.

Natsu: WOW! Lucy is amazing! I can't believe she actually sang like that. I wonder who she couldn't have?

Levy: That's MY LU-CHAN! AMAZING!

Pantherlily: I love when she sings, its sooo peaceful.

Gajeel: gii hii, who knew the cheerleader could sing!

Erza: Lucy was great!

Gray: Damn. My little sis is amazing, but I hope she is okay.

Happy: She did awesome. But I wont tell her that. Hehe. I wonder if Charle wants a fish?

Wendy: OMG! LUCY WAS FANTASTIC TONIGHT!

Charle: I wish Happy would quit trying to give me a fish. That blonde girl sang really good.

Mira: My sister and Natsu are sooo perfect together! AHHHH….little dragon babies!

Lisanna: I hope my sister don't smother me. I can't believe Lucy was singing to MY NATSU. How dare she try to take him from me.

Bixlow: Cosplay queen is a great singer! Who knew?!

Freed: Lucy was great but Mira was AMAZING! Poor Lucy, she must be hurting after the show with Lisanna and Natsu earlier. I wonder if she wants to join the Rajinshuu!

Rest of the guild: OMG OMG OMG! LUCY CAN SING! *starts clapping wildly*

Laxus: A great singer too huh, this is my type of girl. Stupid pink-haired idiot….

The next to go up was gray who ended up singing, 'ice, ice baby' by vanilla ice. Which turned out to be a disaster until he started stripping on stage, which ended in Erza pulling him off stage by his ear and yelling things about the guild not being a strip club, he still got quite a few cheers though.

After was Happy who sang a fish love song to Charle. Last but not least was Master who sang a dirty perverted rap song. Everyone was SO taken aback that they didn't even clap when he finished. They just stared wide-eyed and half fell off their chairs, while the other half was trying to claw their ears off. Everyone that night had been scarred permanently from the few horrific scenes that unfolded, especially the judges who were sitting right up front in the action. Laxus wasn't that surprised that his grandfather would choose such a provocative song.

Master closed the stage and thanked everyone for coming out and stated again that the winner would be announced tomorrow afternoon. The judges were to stay at the guild over night to counsel.

"Where could she be?!" Laxus said in dismay, as he scanned the room, searching for a hint of blonde, as his grandfather was finishing up his announcements.

So sorry everyone for not updating sooner. My computer is still needing a charger but it should be in by the end of next week! Hope all of you aren't too pissed! And I would like to give a special thanks to Erlomast for being sooo amazing and giving me suggestions in their reviews! I hope you guys enjoyed it and I am sorry for any spelling errors! I didn't have enough time to edit it or reread it because my computer was going to die! AHH! LOVE YOU ALL MY LOVERLIES!

STAY EVIL!
