Duel of the dragons: day one: part 1

Chapter 14 part 1

I had to use a whole bottle of my fatigue cream to get the pain I felt to go away. I could do this. I arrived at the field and I was ready to see the first match. I looked at the board of the contestants. The announcer appeared and started speaking.

"Welcome dragon slayers and today will be the first round of the tournament of dragons. Let's see the first matchup," the curtain pulled back and revealed the two first fighters. I gasped a little. I was in the first match. And I would be fighting… Wendy. Really? Oh well I just had to do my best.

"There you have it folks the first match. Fighters please go to the eating hall and get your meal," I walked besides Wendy she looked really nervous.

"What are you so nervous about? There's a good chance you're way stronger than I am."

"It's not that I just don't like when people stare at me too much. Jack can I ask a favor?"

"Depends. What is it?"

"Don't go easy on me. This is as much of a test for me as it is for you. Besides they have some of the best healers in Fiore waiting on the sidelines," we entered the dining hall and I was handed a giant plate of glass. I ate away and when I was done, we walked into the field and shook each other's hand.

"Good luck Wendy."

"You too. May the best dragon win."

"Combatants get set. FIGHT!" The bell rang and I decided to make the first move. "GLASS DRAGON ROAR!" Wendy countered easily "SKY DRAGON ROAR!" Her roar was stronger than mine was but I knew that so I dodged out of the way and got ready again "GLASS DRAGON PISTON!" I shot my arm at her and she was hit in the chest and fell over. I wasn't gonna let up my attacks. "GLASS DRAGON WINGED STRIKE!" Wendy got to her feet just in time to leap out of the way. "SKY DRAGON WING ATTACK!" I couldn't dodge since I was in midair and she hit me dead on and fell to the ground and rolled a little. Dammit I thought. And from what I know she's the weakest of them. I got up in time to see her get ready to strike again. "SKY DRAGON ROAR!" I managed to jump over it and I faced away from her. "GLASS DRAGON ROAR!" I started flying towards her. "GLASS DRAGON LANCE!" But I didn't even come close to hitting her I flew way past her and hit the ground instead. She did this during the grand magic games as well. She gave me enough power so I overshot her. "SKY DRAGON WING ATTACK!" I was caught off guard and she hit me dead on I was quite banged up after that. I had to finish this now. I focused all my power this final combo. "GLASS DRAGON STAMP!" I used my stamp to launch myself towards Wendy quite fast. I turned away again. "GLASS DRAGON ROAR!" I got an extra speed boost. "GLASS DRAGON PISTON!" my arm was traveling way too fast for Wendy to dodge and I hit her right in the gut. She was knocked out.

"Healers come help her!" I shouted as the healers came running and started treating her.

"And there you have it folks the first match. The victor is Jack the glass dragon slayer. He will be moving on to the next round," the crowd cheered. But I didn't feel like it was that big of a victory. I was totally screwed in the next round no matter whom I would be paired against. Walked in to see how Wendy was doing. She was in a hospital bed with a Lachrima television so she could see the matches. She was sitting with Charla and Romeo, sipping on some tea.

"Are you alright Wendy?"

"Young man! You should be more careful. I think that was a bit overkill!" Charla was very mad at me for hurting Wendy.

"Yeah seriously she could have been hurt you know," Romeo backed up.

"It's alright you guys. I asked that he went all out on me. Thank you for that Jack."

"You're welcome. You know you almost had me there."

"Yeah I guess I did."

"You're a lot stronger than you look you know, well I'm gonna go prepare for my next match," I patted her on her head. When I came out Zeke was waiting for me.

"Dude no offense to Wendy but that was pathetic. You should have wiped thee floor with her."

"It's been bothering me too. She's the weakest of all the dragon slayers from Fairy Tail," I heard someone talking from around the corner.

"I think I have a solution to your power issue," Kai came around the corner. He didn't wait for a reply.

"Come with me. Just so you know you won't be able to watch the rest of the round from round one. And it might be very painful,"

"That's fine. But just wondering. Where are we going?"
