CHAPTER NINETEEN: DAY 2: YUKINO VS KAGURA

"Alright! The second day of the Grand Magic Games reaches it's final match at last! Kagura Mikazuchi from Mermaid Heel versus Sabertooth's Yukino Aguria!" Chapati announced. "We've got another battle of the beauties!"

"Which do you think is gonna win?" Frosch asked.

"Yukino-san, of course!" Lector replied, irritated. "How is it that you don't even know that, Frosch?"

"Fro thinks so, too!" Frosch replied, innocently.

"Thanks to somebody, we couldn't get any points in the competition part." Orga said, looking at Sting.

"Orga, you're being to hard on Sting. Motion sickness is a Dragon Slayer's weakness." Lucas told him.

"Lucas-sama is right. Sting-sama was just unlucky. If we'd known the competition was going to be on top of a moving vehicle..." Yukino said.

"Never mind about that... You do know what it means to be a member of this team, don't you?" Sting asked.

"Sabertooth... It means fighting in that name without sullying it and winning without question." Yukino replied.

"I guess we're done with the pinup model battles?" Yajima asked.

"Well, depending on the individual taste, it wouldn't be out of the question..." Chapati replied.

"We couldn't ask this cool twosome to do that, right?" Jason asked.

Yukino and Kagura arrived at the arena glaring at each other. "Sabertooth..." Gray muttered.

"Watch closely. This is one of the guilds that we have to overcome." Erza said.

"Right!" Wendy said.

Lucas joined the rest of his guildmates to watch the match. "You think Yukino will be fine?" Alyssa asked.

"She's a member of Sabertooth. I know she's got this." Lucas replied.

"Kagura is just as skilled as Erza is, right?" Shiro questioned.

Atlas nodded. "I would say Erza is a bit more skilled than she is. But Kagura's abilities are definitely not something Sabertooth should look down upon." He responded.

"I think you're just being biased because you have a crush on Erza." Nero stated as Atlas smacked the back of his head while Shiro snickered.

"Alright! Let the match begin!" Chapati exclaimed.

"I look forward to doing battle with you." Yukino said.

Kagura closed her eyes. "As do I." She said.

"Before we begin, shall we make a bet too?" Yukino asked.

"Sorry, but I'm not interested." Kagura replied.

"Is it because you're afraid of losing?" Yukino asked once more.

"I don't possess that kind of emotion. However, I believe that when one makes a wager, it must be followed through. So I'd like to abstrain from any thoughtless diversions." Kagura said.

Yukino closed her eyes. "In that case, let's make a serious bet. Let's bet our lives." She said leaving everyone shocked.

"Your lives? Hey..." Natsu said.

"This is getting vicious." Gray commented.

"Even though that's not something you bet on..." Lucy muttered.

"That's our Yukino-san! That's why she's part of Sabertooth!" Lector cheered.

"Good luck, Yukino!" Frosch cheered as well.

"This is getting interesting." Sting commented.

"It's your bad luck to be standing before a member of Sabertooth..." Yukino said as she got out a Zodiac Key.

"Lucy-san, is that..." Wendy trailed off.

"That girl is a Celestial Spirit Wizard?" Lucy exclaimed. The Zodiac Key started to glow.

"Huh... a gold key. One of those 12 Zodiac Gate things?" Kagura questioned as she looked at the glowing key.

"Open, Gate of the Paired Fish..." Yukino said.

"Gate of the Paired Fish? I like the sound of that!" Happy exclaimed.

"What kind of Celestial Spirit is it?" Wendy wondered out loud.

"I don't know." Lucy admitted.

"Going by the usual pattern, it's probably something like this." Erza said as a fish man appeared.

"That's kind of unsetting..." Wendy commented.

"But there are ones like the Gemini twins too, so my guess is that it'll be like this." Gray said as two fish appeared.

"I have a feeling you've hit the mark..." Lucy said.

"Happy will be so pleased!" Natsu exclaimed as a random thing appeared next to him.

"That's not even a fish..." Wendy said.

"Wendy, don't waste your time contradicting that guy. His stupidity will rub off." Gray said.

"Pisces!" Yukino held the key to the sky as a Magic Circle appeared, then two huge fish appeared.

"They are fish!" Happy exclaimed. Pisces headed straight towards Kagura, but Kagura dodged. Pisces kept trying to attack her but she kept dodging. Kagura runs down Pisces.

"Huh. She's not bad." Sting commented.

"What? She's no great shakes. All she's doing is dodging." Lector shrugged.

"Fro thinks so, too!" Frosch agreed.

"If you're so good at dodging, then all I need to do is ground you." Yukino said as she got out another key.

"Two gates open at the same time?" Lucy exclaimed.

"Glittering gold!" Frosch said.

"That's right! That's one of 12 Zodiac Gates, too!" Lector added.

"Open, Gate of the Scales..." Yukino swipes the gold key and the same Magic Circle appears. "Libra!" She shouted. A woman with scales on her fingers appears from the gate. The men in the audience had hearts in their eyes as they went wild.

"Libra, alter the target's gravity." Yukino ordered.

"As you wish." Libra replied as she did so. Kagura got held down to the ground as Pisces surrounded her.

"That's gravity manipulation!" Beth exclaimed.

"That Libra character can use the same magic as me?" Risley questioned.

"So she made Kagura heavier?" Arana asked.

"Pisces..." Yukino muttered. Pisces headed down to attack Kagura, but Kagura jumped up, dodging the attacks.

"She blew off Libra's gravity power?" Lector asked, shocked.

"How?" Frosch wondered.

"That girl's awesome!" Shiro exclaimed.

"Her jumping ability is remarkable." Bella commented.

"No, that's..." Atlas trailed off.

"Libra... Make the target's gravity go sideways." Yukino ordered.

"As you wish." Libra replied. Kagura got flown to the statue, with Libra's magic holding her down.

"Ouch! She was only able to escape the Celestial Spirit's gravity altering for a short time! Kagura is pinned to the statue! What a pinch!" Chapati said.

"Gravity is cool!" Jason exclaimed.

"Pisces!" Yukino said. Pisces headed to where Kagura was.

"This is what I'm talkin' about! The highlight of two gates opened at once!" Lector exclaimed, waving his arms.

"I guess it's all over... Or I wish it would be..." Sting muttered. Pisces headed towards Kagura. She closed her eyes and suddenly Pisces stopped moving.

"The fish stopped!" Hana exclaimed.

"What the? Is she out of magic?" Alyssa questioned.

"That's not it. Take a look." Lucas responded. The God Pegasus team looked down. Libra was being pinned to the ground.

"I can't move." Libra said.

"I see..." Yukino muttered.

"Don't tell me she can use gravity magic, too?" Lector said.

"How?" Frosch wondered.

"Kagura's the one who taught me gravity-altering magic. Better not underestimate Kagura-chan!" Risley said.

Pisces and Libra were pinned down. "Pisces, Libra, go back." Yukino said as Pisces and Libra disappeared. Yukino and Kagura stared at each other.

"Yeesh, call it a draw. This match will go on forever." Orga commented.

"Yukino..." Frosch muttered.

"She's fine! The fight is just startin'! Right, Sting-kun?" Lector asked.

"That's right. Yukino's gonna bring out her real power now." Sting replied.

"You're going to make me open... The 13th gate?" Yukino asked. Kagura was shocked to hear this.

"The 13th gate? Is that what she just said?" Lucy exclaimed.

Wendy turned to her. "What's wrong, Lucy-san?" She asked. Lucy explained to Wendy about there being a 13th gate.

"Opening the 13th gate... That means you're out of luck." Yukino said as she pulls out a gold key with black swirling around it. It started to glow purple.

"Luck, huh? I haven't relied on luck since the moment I was born." Kagura said. The arena suddenly went dark.

"Open, Gate of the Snake Charmer..." Yukino holds up the key in the air. "Ophiuchus!" A Magic Circle appeared as a snake appeared and the audience was in shock.

Ophiuchus headed towards Kagura, but Kagura easily defeated Ophiuchus. The sky went back to normal as everyone stood in shock.

"Is she for real?" Sting exclaimed. Kagura headed towards Yukino as the Sabertooth team kept staring in shock. Yukino was on the ground, defeated.

"Sometimes, mermaids eat tigers." Kagura informed. Everyone continued to stare in shock.

"T-T-The match is over! The winner is Kagura Mikazuchi of Mermaid Heel!" Chapati announced. The audience cheered with excitement.

"It's unbelievable, but Sabertooth got zero points on the second day!" Chapati said.

"This is getting interesting." Yajima commented.

"Cool! Kagura-chan is cool!" Jason exclaimed.

"Was the Saber woman weak? Or was the Mermaid woman strong?" Gray asked.

"The latter..." Erza replied.

"I-I lost... Sabertooth lost." Yukino sobbed.

"Yukino..." Frosch muttered. Sting was clenching his fist as he made a dent in the railing.

"Sting-kun..." Lector said. Sting looked angry. Yukino continues crying.

"And thus ends the second day of the Grand Magic Games! Raven Tail gained ten points today, giving them first place with 36 points! Sabertooth gained zero points today, but still remain in third place!" Chapati said as he continued on with the rankings.
