By the time of next morning, Natsu kicked down the door. Flames came out of his mouth with his insane laughter.
May was sitting by the bar, while drinking a cherry and lemon smoothe. She and Erza was talking about reshaping Erza's swords. Mira gladly welcomed him back.
"Fight me Erza! May let's go!" Natsu yelled dragging both females outside by the cliff. May was sipping her drink as Natsu clutched her cloak.
"I'll fight the winner." May said crawling to the safety zone to finish her drink.
A familiar blonde showed up standing next to master and Mira. Mira explained what was about to happen and Lucy got excited. She wanted to see Erza and May fight, and show their magic power.
"So two dragon slayers and an S-class mage." Master said stroking his face, "Okay place in your bets!"
Lucy looked down at master, 'so she's a dragon slayer.' She looked down at the black haired mage, as May watched the two take stance.
May knew what the outcome was going to be, but she couldn't help but watch. Flashing colors appeared everywhere.
"Fire Dragon Roar!" Natsu yelled aiming at Erza, right when she reequipped into her Flame Empress Armor.
She dodged the flames and ran at Natsu at full speed, "Flame Slash!" Erza yelled as she kicked Natsu's side.
May could see every detail to the fight even though they're speed couldn't be caught by a regular human eye. When Erza went in for a kick, May knew that the battle between the two would be over. Erza's foot connected into Natsu's side, flinging Natsu into the sky.
May slurped down the rest of her drink, before standing up. She handed the trash to another member, before taking off her red cloak. Her dark grey shoulder armor shined under the sun. She rolled her neck and took stance. The red guild mark was clearly visible over her heart, and a dark aura grew in a flash.
The whole guild and extra covered their eyes from the dark light. They felt immense power from the girl. Erza reequipped into her strongest armors, the Purgatory Armor. The male population whistled at Erza for showing much skin, while May waited.
"You can take the first move." May said crossing her arms, waiting for the blow.
Lucy was on the edge, she couldn't wait to see the battle play out. She wanted to see how strong May was to teach Erza to control her magic. Right when Erza lifted her sword, a voice yelled.
"Stop!" A tall slim man with black hair yelled, "My name is Lahar, I am from the Magic Council Military Base, and May Herbiva, you are under arrest."
Mages circled around May and Lahar, when Master spoke up.
"Now why is under arrest? I haven't got a single damage report from her in a long time." Makarov said, while Natsu bursts out of nowhere, yelling how the match was unfair.
Lahar ignored Natsu's sudden outburst and continued talking, "Since no one else wouldn't take matters in their own hands, I have for them. None of them believes that May Herbiva is still alive. She did a good job hiding herself from the council, but I did my research."
"May Herbiva is under arrest for assaulting the council in X413, and for unknown development of ageing." Lahar said reading out of a paper scroll.
May sighed and picked up her red cloak, before going towards Lahar. He cuffed her wrists as people whispered 'X413.' and 'No wonder why I thought she didn't age for the past years."
"There is no possible way she would be alive in X413! She looks like a 17 year old!" Gray yelled.
"No, they're not wrong Gray, I did do the crime back then. Don't worry I'll be back, so don't you cry no more." May sang to him before walking away with the council.
She and Lahar entered the council's vehicle, when it started May started to cough. May tried to show any motion sickness to Lahar, but failed. She didn't look green or anything, she just wanted to leave the area.
"Do you like music?" May asked trying to pick at the lock.
Back at the guild, Natsu was turned into a gecko and Master was silent. Lucy was freaking out while Levy went into research.
Master started to grumble before yelling, "They took my trump card!"
"Trump card, what are you talking about master?" Gray asked from a nearby table.
"May is the last resort when something goes wrong, she can't be in the frontlines with us because she would be impossible to stop. Though she can help with little things, like medical reasons or hand to hand combat." Erza said for Makarov.
"Did something go wrong?" Elfman asked.
"Yes, but it wasn't as bad as a full on war. There was a small combat battle 3 on 3, between Erza, May, Mirajane, verses Natsu, Gray, and Laxus." Master explained, "We thought it was okay to fight since Laxus just turned into an S-class mage, but…"
"But what master?" Lucy asked with sweat dropping.
"May was really into fighting alongside Mira and Erza, she accidentally blew down half the town. It was such a bill I had to pay." Master replied with tears in his eyes, "I don't know how she did it, but she managed to hide her name from the council. You know how many magazines I could have bought with that money?!"
"Master!" Mirajane said from behind the counter ready to scold him.
"Anyway don't you think Natsu is being silent?" Droy asked tapping on the glass.
Makarov raised his fists and smashed the glass. Macao fell onto the floor.
"Awe man you caught me. I owed Natsu, and when Romeo caught him, I traded places." Macao said scratching his head.
May was in the court room as the nine council members looked down at her. She stared silently down, she knew that Siegrain was staring in amusement.
"May Herbiva, you are counted guilty in…" The head chairman started to say when an explosion happened behind May.
"It is me! May Herbiva! I'm the Ridinghood!" Natsu yelled in a black wig and a red cloak.
"Natsu! What are you doing?!"May whispered loudly grabbing him by the ear.
"What do you mean? No wait, I'm not Natsu. I'm May Herbiva. You got an imposter!" Natsu yelled with flames in his mouth.
May looked up at the council and mumbled an apology before they were taken away in the dungeon bellow.
May threw rocks onto the wall while cussing her heart out onto Natsu.
"You mean they would have let you out after the confinement?" Natsu asked still in the getup.
"Yup but thanks to you we have to stay in here." May grumbled and threw rocks.
Footsteps made its way in front of the iron bars. May looked up to see Siegrain. He held the keys in his hands.
May took her stance, and went up to him as he unlocked the door. Natsu gladly dashed out leaving Siegrain and her alone.
"What are you up to Siegain?" May asked with curiosity.
He grabbed her jaw tightly facing him.
"Oh whatever do you mean May?" he asked with smug look as if he already won.
"You know what I mean, it'll be soon that it's going to fail. And you know what you'll remember it would be the cause of Fairy Tail. The council members couldn't be more oblivious to recruit a sketchy guy as you." May said yanking out of his grip and walking away.
"We're home!" Natsu yelled kicking down the guild door.
May was behind him, tired and groggy. She rubbed her eyes trying to stay up, though that is normal since she sleeps mostly at the guild.
Mira made a smoothe, "accidentally" adding some shots into it. May drank it while giving her a glare. Mira nervously chuckled and took her attention away.
"Mira I need a job again." May moaned, "I'm bored, can you get me a tough mission this time?"
"Okay let me go see if there are any missions for you." Mira said before going back to get the tougher missions from master.
A long hand traveled down the stairs grabbing May's waist. Lucy jumped a little while Natsu and Grey sweat dropped.
"Whoop." May said as the hand flung her into Master's office.
"May you need to actually look at the jobs yourself. Here are some options to choose from." Master said turning his head while whispering, "And they're all far away. Hehehehe."
May grumbled and chose the toughest one.
"I choose this one. The monster looks cute too." May said pointing at the creature with its tongue sticking out.
"Awe he is cute, but May this is a 10 year mission." Mira agreed but pointed on the poster.
"She has all the time she needs." Master said looking into a naughty magazine.
Mira smacked him upside the head and confiscating the item. May tried not to laugh as she took the paper.
"I guess I'll be going." May said while exiting the master's office.
Before she left she felt a stare on her shoulder. She turned around and saw Laxus staring down with a smug look.
She knew that he had the same magic as Jasper, but to look like him to made May feel sad. May grabbed her basket and placed her hood up.
Meanwhile as she went to the train station a particular trio was at the docks ready to leave for a cursed island.
"Master an S-class poster is missing!" Mira came yelling down.
Erza at her cake while Gray yelled to bring them back. After he left Erza clucked her tongue.
"You're going after them right?" Elfman asked.
"Yeah, but I'll give them time so they can think about their punishment."
