Recap: "I think," a voice said from behind Harry and Laxus.
"You should be," a second voice said.
"More worried," the first voice.
"About everyone," the second.
"From Sabertooth," the two voices said together.
Harry turned his wide, shocked, green eyes over to the owners of the voices. "You two…?"
The two people that spoke and finished each other's sentences were none other than Fred and George Weasley. Harry felt the shock leave him, and have it quickly replaced with a wide smile.
"Hey guys! It's been a while. How have you been?" Harry asked.
"We're doing great!" said Fred.
"Yeah, we've been fixing up our shop, and we've got others helping out with the other stores," said George.
"It's strange, though…"
"Someone seemed to have been…"
"Already fixing our shop for us already…"
"Because it wasn't as messed up as we thought it was going to be after we found out it had been 507 years since we last saw it."
"You wouldn't happen to know who it was, now would you?" the red-headed twins asked together with knowing grins.
Harry smiled fondly at his friends/brothers. "You guessed right. I have been trying to fix it up, but I got trapped in a frozen time zone again, but this time it was much shorter. Only 7 years this time," he said.
"Well thanks, mate!" Fred and George said with twin wide grins.
Before the three friends could say anymore, the pumpkin-headed announcer called out the names for the first match of the day. "For our first match, Lucy from Fairy Tail Team A and Flare from Raven Tail!"
Harry felt everyone from his guild tense with concern, which made him become alert. He looked down at the arena, and saw Lucy and a long, red-haired girl already done there. Harry grabbed the railing tightly, hoping that Raven Tail doesn't do anything dirty, but knowing a dark guild, they will try.
"What's up, Harry?" asked the twins.
Harry took his eyes off the two opponents for a moment, but couldn't leave them for long. "Raven Tail is a dark guild."
"But isn't it against the rules for dark guilds to partake in the Grand Magic Games?" asked George.
"It is, but they got cleared of being a dark guild and became legal. Problem is, they're still a dark guild no matter what they say, and not just because they have Voldemort with them," explained Harry, who turned his eyes over to the rest of Raven Tail, and saw Voldemort looking at him. Harry glared at him with hatred in his eyes, but that only made Voldemort smirk in reply. The Dark Lord broke eye contact and focused on the fight. Harry has a feeling there was a reason why Voldemort was watching the game instead of trying to kill him, but for the life of him he couldn't figure it out.
"Why is he here?" the twins questioned worriedly.
"I don't know," said Harry. 'What is he planning?' he questioned thoughtfully.
{He might be gauging the power of your guild. This would be a great time to do it,} said Fawkes.
{That's not good. If what you say is true, Fawkes, then it might be he's studying the other guilds as well,} said Harry.
{He could be. Oh! The fight is starting!} Harry could see his familiar flapping his wings in excitement from where the bird was next to Castor and Asuka, the little girl that Bisca and Alzack had together.
He shook his head, and quickly said to the twins, "I'll introduce you to the others of my guild once this match is over, okay?"
"No problem, but I hope none of you mind we stay here to watch?" said Fred.
"We don't want to miss one of our mate's new friends' kick butt," said George.
"If you're a friend of Harry's, then it's fine with us," said Laxus, who shrugged and returned his attention back to the match.
"Great!" the twins said cheerfully, and stood next to Harry as they also paid attention to the match going on below.
Lucy knew she had to win this fight. Not only was it to help the guild get back into first place, but she also needed to beat Raven Tail. She had heard from Natsu that the leader of the dark guild was Laxus' father and Makarov's son. She almost couldn't believe that Iven, the leader of Raven Tail, was her master's son.
Lucy mentally shook her head to clear it of the thoughts running through. Now was not the time to be distracted. She had a match to win.
"Alright, are you two ladies ready?" the pumpkin-headed announcer questioned. In reply, both Lucy and Flare got into their fighting stances. "Then...GO!"
Lucy summoned Virgo, and Flare's red hair started waving in the air like tentacles.
"What can I do for you, Princess?" asked Virgo.
"I want you to dig a hole around her," Lucy said while pointing to Flare.
"As you wish." After Virgo bowed to her, she dropped down into the ground.
Flare used this time to send out sharp bits of hair at Lucy.
Lucy then pulled out another key. "Taurus!" she summoned.
When a cow man appeared, he quickly cut the hair, and prevented Lucy from being gravely injured. "What can I dooo for you, Miss Luuucy?" asked Taurus, who then saw the red-headed girl they're fighting. "Oooh, who is that?! She's cute," said the cow man.
"Don't googly eye her, fight her!" Lucy shouted. "She's the enemy."
"As you wish, Miss Luuucy!" Taurus pulled out his giant labry from behind his back, then spun it around above his head, and then slammed it down onto the hard ground. This caused the ground in front of him to split like an earthquake, and break rocks off and send them into the air, which all headed straight for Flare. When the dust and rocks cleared, both Lucy and Taurus could see that the Raven Tail girl had blocked the attack with her hair.
"No way…" said Lucy, but then she remembered something. She smirked. "It doesn't matter. She's about to fall anyway."
Her words confused Flare, but before the red-head could move, the ground below her opened up. She would have fallen in if it wasn't for using her hair to stab into the ground and hold her up.
"Now, Taurus!" ordered Lucy.
Taurus jumped up and came down with his axe, aiming for Flare, who had lost her patience.
Flare used her hair to form a wolf, and sent it up at the cow man. Taurus had no choice, but to block the attack with his axe. He took one of his hands off his weapon and grabbed the red bulk of hair. He pulled on it to bring the girl up, but Flare grinned insanely and lit her hair on fire. Taurus cries out more from shock than pain, but that didn't mean he hadn't felt the burning pain applied to his palm.
Lucy flinched at the cry. She hated it when her spirits got hurt. Virgo decided to pop out of the ground shortly after.
"Do you need me for anything else, Princess?" she asked.
"No, you may return," said Lucy.
"As you wish." Virgo disappeared with another bow, and Lucy grabbed another key.
"Scorpio!" Lucy summoned, and hopped he wasn't on a date with her most violent spirit, or else Aquarius will have her head.
"What can I do for you, Lucy?" the scorpion-looking man asked.
"I want you to use Sand Buster," said Lucy.
"You got it!" Scorpio said and sent out a burst of sand from his gun-like tail.
"Taurus, I want you to use Scorpio's sand buster to attack Flare!" she told her other spirit, who had recovered from being burnt. The cow man wrapped the sand from Scorpio's sand buster around his axe, and then charged at Flare. When he brought down the axe, it created another earthquake, but this time several tornadoes formed around the landing point.
Flare was able to block most of the attack, and use her hair magic to grab hold of Lucy, who used her whip to catch Flare around the waist. Neither one of the girl's moved an inch. Lucy sent both Taurus and Scorpio back and was about to go for another spirit, but Flare stopped her.
"I wouldn't do that ~," the red-headed girl said. Lucy looked up to see what she was going on about and saw her pointing at something. The blond mage turned to look and saw a few strands of hair waving close by little Asuka.
Lucy's eyes widened in horror. "Asuk-" she couldn't finish calling out her warning, because Flare covered her mouth with red hair, and spread her limbs out so she would be wide open.
"Shhh…" hushed Flare. "If you say anything, I'll kill that girl."
Lucy wouldn't forgive herself if she allowed Asuka to be hurt, or worse killed. She had no choice but to play along with Flare's sick game.
"Now then, what should I do to you?" said Flare with that creepy and insane grin plastered on her face.
Lucy closed her eyes. 'Please, someone notice that Asuka is in danger!' she prayed.
Harry thought he heard Lucy try to shout something, but he's hearing wasn't as good as a dragon slayer's. That's when he saw the color pink move quickly from where Team A was located. Harry looked and noticed that Natsu was now missing. 'Where did he go?' Harry questioned. He sensed out for his friend's life force, and felt it heading for the rest of their guild. Harry moved his green eyes over to them and studied everyone there.
They all looked fine to him. The master wasn't having a heart attack, which was good. They all looked furious, but that's to be expected with Flare getting a hold of Lucy like that. The only one who didn't look mad, but rather confused was Asuka.
'Wait...what's that next to Asuka?' Harry questioned when he noticed something red close to the little girl. Next to the young child was hair. It was the same shade as Flare's.
"That cheater…" Harry felt his blood begin to boil.
"What's wrong, Harry?" asked, Laxus, who heard his words.
"Raven Tail is threatening Lucy with Asuka," he said through gritted teeth.
"What?!" his team, Fred, and George shouted in rage. They looked to Fairy Tail and saw what Harry mentioned.
"Asuka!" Mira said in worry.
"We have to do something!" shouted Gajeel.
"I saw Natsu heading that way now, but I'll let Fawkes know," said Harry. {Fawkes, Flare is threatening Asuka!}
He saw his familiar turn his red, feathery head to Asuka, and then started to flap his wings rapidly while screeching. At least Harry thinks he's screeching, he couldn't really hear him. This caught Fairy Tail's attention. When they noticed the hair they too started shouting. Bisca quickly grabbed her daughter and pulled her away from the threat. Harry could faintly see them shouting cheater and monster, but couldn't hear them over the roar of the crowd while Lucy was being whipped by flaming hair.
Fawkes realized that they weren't getting anywhere, so he grabbed the hair and burned it just as Natsu came onto the stand and about to burn it himself. There was a pause of silence for a few beats between the dragon slayer and phoenix, but Natsu then ran over to the rail and shouted as loud as he could, "You're good to go, LUCY!"
Harry returned his attention to Lucy, who was smirking and said something, but he was too far to hear. Lucy used her whip to cut through the hair that was holding her and then grabbed a different gold key. She brought out Gemini, who transformed into Lucy, but it was in a bath towel. Harry could hear the men in the crowd cat calling, which made him fire off stinging hexes at the nearby ones. They looked around in confusion, wondering where the sudden pain came from, but they shrugged it off and began drooling over Lucy again.
Harry was about to send more hexes, but the magic build up Lucy was doing caught his attention. Harry saw a ton of constellations come down and surround Lucy with their power. Lucy then pulled all that magic into one point and aimed it at Flare. Harry had no idea what this spell was, but he could tell it was powerful. He listened closely, and was able to hear the last few lines of the spell.
"Open thy malevolent gate. Oh 88 Stars of the heaven... Shine! Urano Metria!"
The magic sped toward Flare in a tremendous attack. It hit its intended target as well as the ground, making it hard to see the effects the spell had caused. As the dust and debris cleared, everyone could see Flare unconscious on the ground, covered in wounds.
"The winner of this match goes to Lucy Heartfilia!" cried out the announcer, followed by the cheers of the crowd.
TBC
LUCY WOOOONNNN! XD
*cough* pardon me *cough* I didn't like how she lost in the story, so I made sure she won this time. It was easy, since Zeref's familiar isn't there to drain her of her magic.
Natsu: That's a great thing! Lucy got the victory she deserved! XD
Zeref: Good for her. :)
Voldy: Doesn't she have dragon slayer magic?
Harry: She does… *looks to me*
Enj/Dark: I'm waiting for the right moment. She will be showing that bit of her power in the GMG.
Zeref: When?
Enj/Dark: *grin evilly* You'll see. Natsu, it's your turn.
Natsu: Please review! XD
