Chapitre 2: Chapter 2: GMG day 2- Sabertooth's New Fear
The first day of the Grand Magic Games came and went in a flash before anyone knew it. So after the 1st day of the GMG here was how things stood:
Dragon's Dawn: 12 pts
Raven Tail: 10 pts
Sabertooth: 10pts
Lamia Scale: 8 pts
Fairy Tail B: 6 pts
Mermaid Heel: 6 pts
Blue Pegasus: 4 pts
Quatro Cerebus: 2 pts
Fairy Tail A: 0 pts
Needless to say after Lucy's defeat to Flare in the battle portion of day 1, Team Natsu was only feeling more motivated to do better tomorrow. All of the Fairy Tail Guild were now back at their inn now discussing the day's results. Gajeel of course felt the need to rub the fact that Natsu's team didn't have a single point in his face. This only served to anger the Fire Dragon Slayer, which then led to a small scuffle between the two before Erza quickly resolved it. After snapping back to reality, Natsu listened in on what Fairy Tail should do about the new guild.
Erza was also curious and decided to ask something of the first master. "First master, what do you propose we do about this new guild that's appeared in the games?," Erza asked. Mavis thought for a minute so she could try and come up with something. "For now, I'd say to keep a close eye on them. I'm not sure what their goal is here.," Mavis answered. Makarov agreed as he relayed his instructions to his two teams. "The first master has spoken. Do as she says and Do not engage the members of this new guild under any circumstance. This especially goes for you Natsu and Gray.," Makarov answered with a directed glare.
Natsu and Gray looked surprised, but also kind of upset at this. "Aw come on Gramps, can't I fight one of 'em?," Natsu pleaded. "No Natsu! I know how the two of you are, DO NOT FIGHT THEM UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. AM I CLEAR?!,"Makarov shouted. Natsu and Gray then answered abit downcast. "Yes sir.," They answered disappointed. "We really don't know what that guild is capable of yet or how strong they really are.," Makarov reasoned with them.
It was at this point that Erza spoke up. "Master, If they're anything like we've heard then-," Erza started before she was interrupted by Laxus. "That would mean we're in real trouble if this new guild is as strong as the rumors say they are.,"Laxus said finishing Erza's thought. Wendy heard this and was troubled at this news, so she decided to pipe in. "But Erza- san if that's true, that would mean these guys are almost wizard saint level. Wouldn't it?," Wendy asked. Mavis thought about this and decided to just give them her honest opinion. "No, Wendy. I am loathe to admit this but.. I believe the true strength of Dragon's Dawn may be even higher than wizard saint level, especially their top members.," Mavis suggested.
Everyone's eyes widened in shock at this. "First Master, are... are you absolutely sure of that?," Erza asked being the first one to recover from shock. "I know it may seem crazy, but we have to assume that this may be the case. This guild is much stronger than any foe we have ever dealt with before, with the exception of Acnologia that is.," Mavis said. She then instructed them not to even try to fight the top three, because she felt that they weren't ready for their real strength yet. The last two members she thought they'd at least have a decent chance against though.
While everyone was discussing the plan going forward, wendy couldn't help but to think about the teen who saved her from Raven Tail. "What was his name again? Hmm... Koga I think? I wonder what kind of person Koga is?," Wendy thought to herself. Carla had a sneaking suspicion that Wendy was thinking about the crimson haired boy who saved her. She couldn't blame her though, he did save her life. Just then she had another vision, it was different this time. There were 10 people in bizzarre looking armor standing in front of .. lucy? She was crying as the castle fell apart while those in the armor were all trying to protect her. Then the vision ended.
Carla was startled by the sudden vision, it shook her. "What was that? And.. who were those people?," Carla thought to herself. "Carla are you ok? Is there something wrong?," Wendy asked. Carla caught herself and cleared her throat before answering. "It .. was nothing, child. Nothing is wrong, I was just a little dizzy.," Carla answered. "Well ok, just let me know if something comes up ok?," Wendy asked. Carla smiled at her friend. "Of course I will, Child.," Carla replied. She couldn't tell wendy what she saw, she wouldn't believe her.
Porlyusica looked at Carla before asking her something. "Why didn't you tell her what you saw?," The healer asked. "I couldn't tell her.," Carla answered. Porlyusica raised a questioning eyebrow before carla continued with her explanation. "There's no way a vision like that could ever come true. It was far to bizarre to come into fruition.," Carla answered.
With Sabertooth
Back in the inn the Sabertooth Guild was staying in, the entire guild came before their current master. Although Sabertooth had gotten points that day, it was only by defeating the weaker guilds. Jiemma wasn't happy and he let his guild know this. They had a reputation to uphold after all, being surpassed by some newer guild that wasn't even heard of until about 4 years ago was unacceptable. But at the same time, he couldn't deny this new guild's power. Rufus then came up and addressed their situation. "What do you propose we do about this Dragon's Dawn Guild? We can't deny that each of them must be pretty powerful.," Rufus asked. "Yeah, you saw their fight with one of Mermaid Heel's members. They completely destroyed them, it wasn't even close.," Sting added.
Jiemma didn't like it, this newer guild was crushing their reputation. Sabertooth could not afford to lose or be humiliated any further by this new guild. Still something had to be said about how much stronger Dragon's Dawn's members seemed to be. Not only was their magic strong, but they were physically very powerful too. Something had to be done about them, He was confident in his own wizards though. They'd prove to be more than a challenge to the members of this new and Unknown Guild. Rufus, Sting Eucliffe, Rogue Cheney, Yukino, and Orga.. They were all strong, though Yukino was just a temporary placeholder for their true 5th member of the team. Jiemma dismissed them for the time being, but not before letting his wizards know that there'd serious consequences if they somehow lost.
Sting and Rogue, along with their exceeds got to talking after their master dismissed them. "You think we can beat any of them?, "Lector asked. Sting smirked. "Yeah, we got this. They're probably not all that powerful anyways. Well... except for their leader... He might be a problem.," Sting concluded. Rogue raised a questioning eyebrow, as did some of the others who listened in on their conversation. "Oh? Why do you say that Sting?," Rufus asked slyly. Sting turned to him with a serious look on his face. "Rufus, surely you know why. Don't act like you don't. You felt that guy's power, didn't you?," Sting inquired.
Rufus nodded but still didn't get why Sting was so wary of this other wizard. "Don't tell me you didn't feel it, I know you did.," Sting snapped at him. "That guy's power... it was even higher than master's.," Sting said with a serious look on his face. Any doubt Rogue had was instantly cleared once Sting said his peace. He knew Sting would never say something like that so casually. Lector had the utmost confidence in sting, so he wasn't worried. These guys were pushovers as far as he was concerned. Of course Sabertooth had yet to see those in Dragon's Dawn actually go all out. The only way any of them would know for sure is when Dragon's Dawn took to the arena tomorrow.
Later
In another place just before curfew, Erza walked the streets to get some much needed fresh air. She'd been trying to wrap her brain around what this new guild's objective could be, cause it seemed like they were hiding something. She wasn't alone though, her old friend milliana was with her after the two had reunited. As the two chatted, they came to a bit of a sour subject... Jellal. But before they could proceed down that road, Erza quickly stepped in front of the cat loving wizard as she sensed someone approaching. The two got ready for a fight when out of the shadows stepped a beautiful Auburn haired girl.
The girl was probably around the same age as Erza and Milianna. She was tall and had the most brilliant amber eyes to match her hair. Sky blue, almost teal colored armor adorned her person from her neck to her toes. The girl stepped into the moonlight where she could be seen in order to properly address Erza. "Erza Scarlet and Millianna, correct?, " The Auburn haired girl asked. "Yes, that's correct. Now, who are you and what do you want?," Erza replied cautiously. "You'll have to forgive me. I meant no disrespect by that. Anyways, I'm Skyye Blacksmith of Dragon's Dawn. I come in peace, friend.," Skyye answered.
Millianna raised an eyebrow before Erza explained to her that Skyye was a member from the new guild in the competition. "You're from Dragon's Dawn? What do you want with us?," Erza asked.
Skyye smiled before revealing her reasoning for her visit to both female wizards. "I couldn't help but overhear your conversation about a certain man named Jellal.," Skyye answered. Both Erza and Millianna were on edge now, this girl knew Jellal. But how did she know him? "You speak as though you know Jellal..," Erza said cautiously. "Yes, I suppose I do know him a little.," Skyye replied.
That was suspicious. While Erza was more suspicious than angry, Millianna was the opposite. Just the mention of Jellal made her angry. "Jellal and his guild have been quite the helpful partners to us over the last few years. In return for information, our guild has worked alongside his to completely eradicate every single Dark Guild that remains. But the one smaller dark guild that always managed to escape us was in fact, Raven Tail. ," Skyye explained. Erza and Millianna were more than a bit surprised at this, Jellal had formed a guild?
This shocked Erza until she remembered that she and the rest of team Natsu had already encountered them several times before. "Crime Sorciere, right?," Erza asked. Skyye nodded to which Millianna went bug eyed. "I actually came to warn you two.," Skyye continued. "Warn us? Why would you go out of your way to warn me and erzy?," Millianna asked. "Because I believe you two are the ones i can trust with this information. This way it gets to your guildmates.," the teen answered. Skyye then warned them about the master of Sabertooth and his daughter, Minerva. "We're unsure of Minerva, but we believe Jiemma may in fact be in league with the only remaining member of the Baram Alliance.," Skyye told them.
This surprised Erza as her eyes widened. "You don't mean-," Erza started before Skyye finished her thought. "Tartaros. Yup that's right. We don't have proof yet, but you can be sure that we'll be investigating into this matter thoroughly.," Skyye said. She then turned around to face Millianna. "Despite what you feel, Jellal is not the same man as the twisted one you knew. He's atoning for his sins the only way he knows how. And millianna...," Skyye trailed off. Millianna scowled before jumping back in slight fear of the aura radiating from Skyye. "If you or the other member of mermaid heel make a move towards jellal, your guild will be crushed. that i can promise you..," Skyye said venomously.
Skyye then left and walked back into the shadows. Seeing her friend visibly shaken from Skyye's threat, Erza tapped millianna's shoulder and assured her that it would be alright. The two then said their goodbyes and went their separate ways for the night.
Next morning
The scene shifts back to the coliseum known as Domus Flau for the 2nd day of the Grand Magic Games. As the game for the day is chosen, Sabertooth looks over to where the members of Dragon's Dawn look on. The game was revealed to be hidden, a special version of hide and seek. The last guild that had to pick a participant for this game was Dragon's Dawn. Koga was going to volunteer, that was until a young woman with yellow and black hair with red eyes volunteered instead. This young woman was none other than the lightning Demon slayer, Yukikaze Ayakashi.
The game soon got underway with Nelpudding scoring the first points against Fairy Tail A's Gray Fullbuster. One by one others started scoring points, the only ones not moving were Rufus of Sabertooth, and Yukikaze of Dragon's Dawn. "Tsch, bet that overgrown feather boy is planning something. Well... I've got something right up your alley pretty boy.," Yukikaze thought to herself. As the game finally wore down to its final minutes, Rufus made his move. "Here it comes, Rufus has this in the bag.," A red furred exceed named Lector said aloud. "I think so too.," Frosch said.
Rufus put both his hands on either side of his head and with two fingers each touching the side. He then activated his spell. "Memory Make: Memory of a thousand stars!," Rufus called out. Numerous bolts of lightning that looked like stars hit almost everyone. A few dodged or absorbed the lightning based spell, one such person was Yukikaze. "Pathetic! Is that really the best you can do Sabertooth?! Allow me to show how it's done!," Yukikaze shouted back before beginning a chant. " Heaven hear my cry, can you feel it? The raging torrents in the clouds. Raijin, Beastial God of Thunder, show this worm your power and rain down to earth! Raging Torrent!," Yukikaze cried.
Dark swirling clouds gathered overhead before a massive magic circle appeared in the sky. In the blink of an eye, powerful lightning struck and temporarily paralyzed every single one of the participants other than Yukikaze while causing the arena to shake. When the light show was over the only one left standing was Yukikaze. There was total silence for a moment, but then deafening roars of approval by the fans. "Th-This is unbelievable! Yukikaze of Dragon's Dawn has single handedly beaten every participant in hidden!," Chapati announced in shock. Every single guild other than Raven Tail, was still in shock at what just happened. It was completely unexpected.
Raven Tail's Guildmaster meanwhile was silently seething in rage. Dragon's Dawn was the one guild that always got in his way, and now to have them humiliate one of his guild members? That was pulling on his last nerve. Once Jiemma realized what happened he was silently fuming with anger. The rest of Sabertooth had a different reaction however. All of them were scared, even Orga (though he didn't show it). Sting and Rogue were sweating now. If 3rd member was this strong, what did that say about the top 2 members? Sabertooth had just discovered its new fear, and its name was Dragon's Dawn.
Yukino gulped nervously. "S-Sting.. I don't think we should mess with that guild... We've got no chance against that kind of magic power.," Lector said shaking nervously. Sting and Rogue gulped nervously. "And master wants us to compete with THAT?," Sting and Rogue thought slightly afraid. Over with Fairy Tail, everyone was in shock of the power Dragon's Dawn wielded. Even Makarov and Mavis were unsure of Fairy Tail's chances against such might. Gray who was downed by Rufus heard the commotion and was just in time to see what happened.
Even Fairy Tail's strongest members that who were present were shaken to their core. Never had they seen such power other than Acnologia before. "And we have to fight one of those guys?," Gray asked. Just like that, day 2 of the GMG had just begun.
Hours Later
The Battle portion of the day was as advertised. After a handful of matches, including victories by Elfman and Levy... it was now lucy's turn. Lucy went up against Flare Corona from Raven Tail. She went to cast her Urano metria spell with Gemini, but was interfered with and beaten. Left crying and humiliated on the ground, Natsu went to cheer his friend up. Fairy Tail wouldn't quit, despite being in last place. The Final match was supposed to be Koga vs Arianna, but the mermaid remembered just how powerful the 5 from Dragon's Dawn were. So she forfeited and day 2 of the GMG came to a close. These were the final scores after day 2:
Dragon's Dawn- 25 pts
Sabertooth- 18 pts
Raven Tail - 18 pts
Mermaid Heel- 15 pts
Lamia Scale- 14 pts
Blue Pegasus- 11pts
Fairy Tail B- 10 pts
Quatro Puppy- 8 pts
Fairy Tail A- 6 pts
Natsu's team only had 6 points, but in his eyes that'd only make it sweeter when they rose all the way to the top. Day 2 was over, but Fairy tail wasn't done just yet.
end chapter
whew! that was alot. hopefully you guys enjoyed it. Yes, i know i left some stuff out. Bear with me, Fairy tail will get their crack at Dragon's Dawn. Don't worry i'll still include the Gray vs Rufus fight. I may still do Natsu and Gajeel vs Sting and Rogue. But I also may switch it up a bit. I've hinted at one pairing in this already. In case you're wondering, yes wendy is older in this fic so she's closer to Natsu, lucy, and Gray's ages. That'd put her at around 16 or 17 i think? That also means Chelia will be a few years older too. Anyways enough from me, first a preview.
Lucy: Hey there everyone, Lucy here. Next time things get really intense after Erza takes on the game Pandemonium. The bitter rivalry between Fairy Tail and Sabertooth heats up even more as I ... get beaten up by... minerva? And Raven Tail is exposed by Laxus! To be continued in chapter 3- Fairies, Tigers, and Dragons?
