Hey guys! I hope you liked that last chapter! It was really short, sorry about that. I'm not sure what I'm going to do after this little 'day out' but I'll figure something out. That being said I hope you like this chapter!

So it turns out that the amusement park wasn't as fun as everyone thought it would be, and they returned quickly.

I wake up to someone shaking my shoulder, telling me everyone's leaving.

I open my eyes to Mai, who's practically dragging me by the arm.

"What's happening?" I ask.

"The amusement park was extremely boring, because all the rides were for young children," Mai explains, pulling me to catch up with everyone else.

"I'm coming," I say, tugging my hand back, and jogging next to Mai to catch up with everyone else. "So is that it? We're just going back?"

Mai shrugs. "Looks like it."

"Well that was fun," I mumble. "Didn't even get to sleep that long."

Mai ignores me. "We're going back to the guild. Master needs help with something and he needs all of us."

"Why does he need all the girls?" I ask.

"Who knows," Mai says. "Now hurry up or we'll get left behind."

Mai and I start jogging to catch up to everyone, who've already started to board the boat to get back.

"What's going on?" I ask Lucy.

"I'm not sure, but Master says he needs our help with something," Lucy answers, getting on the boat.

I follow after her. "There's no details?" I ask.

Lucy shakes her head and takes a seat. I sit down in between Mai and Rin.

"Did you get any information?" Mai asks.

I shake my head. "Lucy said she didn't get any information from Master, but she sounded like it was a little urgent."

There's no conversation on the rest of way back.

When we dock, the girls jump off the boat.

"Juvia hopes Gray-sama is okay," Juvia says hurriedly.

I wonder what's going on.

I jog next to the group, a little nervous about what's going to happen.

When we get to the guild, everything seems normal.

Was it just a false alarm?

Just then the Master comes out of the guild.

"Hello girls!" Master says. "You sure are back early. Is something wrong?"

Mira and Erza have gloomy auras around them.

"You called us back, did you not?" Mira asks quietly, making herself even more gloomy.

"What are you talking about?" Master asks.

"You sent us a letter telling us to come back quickly," Erza says gloomily.

The Master looks so confused. "What are you talking about? That wasn't me."

Erza and Mira seem to get slightly less gloomy, and instead get a little confused.

I asked the question that was probably on all our minds. "Then who did?"

"That is a question for a later time," Master says. "For now, Mira, can you get back in the bar. The guys are making quite the mess in there."

"I'll go check on them," Mira says, heading inside.

"Was that really not you then?" Mai asked.

"I don't remember sending anything to you," Master says. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have to get to the magic council meeting."

Well that was a waste.

I enter the guild and see that it's in the worst state I've ever seen.

"What happened here?" I whisper.

The benches are in ruins and most of the other furniture is torn.

"You dimwits!" Erza yells. "We leave for just over a day and this is what happens!"

I see The Unknown sitting at a less damaged table. I sit down in front of him.

"I thought you'd be able to keep them all under control," I sigh.

The Unknown shrugs. "You didn't give me any direct instructions."

"I thought it went without saying," I argue.

The Unknown gives me a blank look. "By the way, I've been meaning to ask you something."

"That's probably the longest sentence you've ever said, you know," I say. "What's wrong."

"You know how Deity told you that I only stayed because of you?" The Unknown asks.

"Yeah, why" I ask.

"That was untrue, I only stayed because the laws forbade me from switching with Deity," The Unknown says.

"It seemed to good to be true," I sigh. "But I feel more relieved now that it's this way. Is that it?"

"Mm-hmm," The Unknown nods.

"That's probably the most I'll hear out of you today, isn't it?" I ask.

The Unknown nods.

I sit awkwardly, not knowing what to say.

Before long, Natsu approaches me. "Crystal fight me!"

"Why?" I ask. "Unless you give me a good reason, I don't think I need to."

"I want to get stronger!" Natsu exclaims.

"Fine," I sigh. "But just once."

Natsu nods, enthusiastically. "This time I'll beat you."

"I won't hold back," I warn him, getting up.

"You wouldn't be doing me a favour if you did," Natsu says.

"Where are we going to fight?" I ask.

"Right here, right now," Natsu says, lighting his fist on fire.

"Won't Erza get mad-" I start, before Natsu comes flying at me with his "Fire dragon's iron fist!"

"I guess we are doing this here," I say, trying to change into my demon form.

When it doesn't work, I'm too shocked to avoid Natsu's next attack and I get hit with his fire dragon's claw.

I got no time to worry about that right now. I think, getting up. Time for plan B.

I try to turn into the other versions of me, but it still won't work and I get hit by Natsu sword horn, which sends me flying.

What's happening?

"Crystal, you better not be going easy on me," Natsu says.

"I'm not," I say. "I'm just getting started."

I close my eyes for a second and focus on trying to transform into my nether state.

Come on, work!

I open my eyes, and all of a sudden I'm hovering in air.

It worked!

I lower myself onto the ground.

"You're finally serious," Natsu smiles.

"Let's do this," I say, making a forcefield around us.


Sorry! I updated this really late and it's really short, forgive me! I was busy keeping up with the homework load for high school! I'll try to update again on Saturday, but no promises. I'll see you all next time!
