CHAPTER TWELEVE: X791

X791...

Sting, Rogue, and Lucas were on top of a grassy hill. Lucas was wearing his usual attire except his dark green button up was fully unbuttoned, showing his toned chest. They were surrounded by stone hedges, broken pillars, and a couple of rocks. Sting and Rogue were facing opposite directions while Sting was sitting on a huge brick and Rogue was looking at the sky. Lucas was laying on the huge brick near Sting with his eyes closed and his hands behind his head. The sun is high and the wind blows. The clouds were moving along.

"I hear they are back." The blonde mentioned.

"What are you talking about?" The raven-haired asked, still looking at the blue sky.

"The core members of Fairy Tail who disappeared seven years ago." The blonde responds.

"Boring..." The light-brown haired male yawned.

"Not interested."

"You can't fool me, Rogue. I remember how you looked up to Gajeel."

"That was a long time ago."

"This makes me feel nostalgic. Seven years ago, I was like this tall." Sting put his hand out as an indicator at how tall he was during that time. Basically, he was a little kid back then. Not hearing any response from Rogue, Sting laughs it off. "You were a fan of Gajeel, right? Man, Gajeel was scary!"

"Don't let yourself be bound by the past, Sting. They weren't on the path we took." Rogue states. Lucas opened one eye and sighed as he said nothing. The sounds of running footsteps became louder and came to a halt.

"Found 'em!" A mustached stranger with a helmet, carrying a bow and arrow, shouts. Sting, Rogue, and Lucas look up to look at the strange man running towards them, preparing to open fire. "Take this!" The mustached man threatens as he fires the bow right at Rogue's head.

Using his quick reflexes, Sting caught the arrow with his gloved hand just in time. The man gasps in shock. Sting wastes no time in devouring the arrow bit by bit. His canine teeth grinds up the arrow like it was food.

"He's eating the arrow?" The man questions. At the sudden realization, he panics in sweat. Sting continues devouring the arrow. "Don't tell me he's..."

Sting finishes eating the arrow, munching on the last bits of it. Letting out a puff, Sting unleashes a large beam of light directly at him. However, it didn't hit the man. Instead, the white beam creates a huge hole in the wall and got away with blowing up half of the terrified man's helmet. Sting, Rogue, and Lucas were facing the man.

"Huh? Maybe I'm a bit rusty. His head's still there." Sting states.

"I-It was you three? The Triple Dragons... White Dragon, Sting. Shadow Dragon, Rogue. And Jade Dragon, Lucas. The Dragon Slayer Trio!" The now terrified man screams. He throws the bow up in the air, running away in fear with his tail in between his legs.

"Hey! Are you just gonna abandon your comrades?" Sting asks. At the bottom of the hill, beind Sting, Rogue, and Lucas lay the rest of the man's comrades, defeated. "You really are scum."

"What do you expect from a dark guild?" Rogue questions. To the left of Sting, Rogue, and Lucas, their Exceeds are at the bottom of the hill.

"You blew things up really good again, huh, Sting?" The maroon colored Exceed asks.

"Lector, Frosch, and Ace, where were you guys?" Sting asks while Rogue continues looking down and Lucas boredly looks at them. They walk over to him.

"Oh, just doing a little reconnoitering." Lector, Frosch, and Ace stop walking as they finally reach their partners. "Y'know, the Fire Dragon, the Iron Dragon, heck, even the Sky Dragon don't stand a chance. You guys got this in the bag!" Lector praises them.

"Fro thinks so, too!" Frosch waves their little arms up and down like a bird about to take flight.

"I know right." Sting states and gives his Exceed partner a high five.

"The way you are now, I'm positive that you could beat Natsu." Lector looks up at his partner as they continue walking.

"Well, yeah. Of course!" Sting looks over at the red eyed man.

"What do you say we challenge them, Rogue?"

"Not interested."

"Fro neither."

"How about you, Luke? I know you're always up for a good challenge." Sting asked his mate.

Lucas smirked. "Sounds interesting, Bee." He replied. "Ace and I better head back to the guild. I'll see you two later."

Lucas and Ace finally arrived back at their guild. "Oh, Lucas! You're finally back!" Atlas exclaimed.

"Is there something wrong?" Lucas questioned.

"No, Master Kaiba is choosing the participants for the Grand Magic Games." Atlas replied. "Some guild members were out on jobs, so we had to wait for them."

As if on cue, Kaiba appeared on top of the balcony. "Everyone, listen up!" Master Kaiba shouted, getting the guild's attention. "The Grand Magic Games are coming up, and I've decided who will represent us in the Games."

Everyone stayed silent, letting their Master continue. "Lucas, Alyssa, Olga, Hana, and Fera will be representing us in the Games. With Izumi being the reserve." Kaiba announced.

"So I wasn't chosen, huh?" Shiro sighed.

"There's always next year, Shiro." Blaze told his partner.

"Atlas, Shiro, Bella, Nero, and Rialle can you come see me in my office privately?" Kaiba asked as the five members looked at each other but followed the Master into his office.

"Crap! We gotta train! I wonder if Sting is participating." Lucas said as him and Ace headed out of the guild.

Meanwhile, the five people that Kaiba called into his office were facing him. "Why did you call us, Master?" Shiro asked.

Kaiba sighed. "As you know, Fairy Tail's core members have returned. There are rumors that they're entering the Games to gain back their spot from Sabertooth. Knowing Makarov, he'll put out two teams so-"

"You want us to do the same." Atlas finished for him.

Kaiba nodded. "You five will be apart of God Pegasus Team B. With Zoey being your reserve for your team." He gestured over to the blonde haired woman who was next to him.

"And I'm guessing you don't want us to tell the original team about this?" Nero questioned.

"Yes." Kaiba responded.

Atlas smirked. "I'm gonna have fun with this. Guess it's time to train. Nero, do you want to tag along?" He asked.

"Of course. It'll be like the old times with Terra. Just don't get butthurt if I beat you." Nero replied.

"Like that'll happen!" Atlas said as the two of them headed out of the office.

"Jade Dragon's Scales!" Lucas shouted as he held his arms up, blocking Sting's attack as the blonde was thrown back and landed harshly on the ground. "You okay, Sting-kun?" Lucas asked, reaching out a hand for him.

"Damn. You've definitely gotten stronger over the years." Sting groaned as he took Lucas's hand and brought him down, making their chests touch.

"No hard feelings if I beat you in the Games, right?" Lucas asked, smirking.

"Don't get cocky, love." Sting replied, smirking back.

Lucas looked at him lovingly. "I wonder how I got so damn lucky having you as my soulmate." He said.

"I've been wondering the same thing." Sting stated. "You'll stay at Sabertooth's inn with me, right?"

"Of course. I don't think Alyssa, Olga, Hana, or Fera would mind. As long as I'm with them for competitions." Lucas responded.

Sting grabbed onto Lucas's chin and kissed him. "Now that I think about it... How long has it been since we've spent a night together?"

"Tch, now is not the time to be horny, Bee." Lucas reminded him. "Can we get back to training now? Thought you wanted to beat that flame head."

"Of course I want to beat Natsu-san. I made a promise to you and Lector, right?" Sting replied.

"Yeah. So let's continue to train." Lucas answered as he got up with Sting following him.

Sting smiled as he watched his boyfriend get into Dragon Force. He watched as Lucas's light brown hair turned a dark green and dark green markings appeared on his face and arms.

"Luke rarely activates Dragon Force. But I forgot how hot he looks when he uses it." Sting thinks to himself. He ended up getting attacked by a huge amount of green energy and went crashing down on the ground. "Seems like I forgot his strength when he activates it as well, and I thought Rogue and I were scary."

"Come on, Stingy bee. I don't wanna see you cry when I beat you." Lucas teased.

Sting chuckled and activated his Dragon Force as him and Lucas continued training.

A/N: It's been like a month since I've updated this, yikes.

So I graduated high school? That's the only thing that's been going on with me.

Hope you enjoyed!
