Capítulo 11: Old friend
Early in the morning, Erza asked Eveline and Luka to supervise Mikasa whilst she trained and explained hoe Mikasa's timetable worked. Afterwards, she went back to her room and equipped her self for a fight. Celesta entered the room which caught her attention, she was looking quite confused at what Erza was doing and was waiting for an explanation. Erza evilly smirked at her, "I would like to meet an old acquaintance, you remember Tigra don't you?" Celesta immediately knew what she was thinking and smirked too. Erza was planning to get any useful information out of Tigra about the war, even if it meant threatening him.
Once they were prepared they left for the nobles home at once. The streets were crowded with a tone of people of the working class and the middle-class. Erza looked at a rich-looking man trying to seduce a peasant, but clearly, it wasn't working out for him as he got slapped on the face. "They really piss me off," Erza directed towards the nobles. "It's taking to long, let's sprint there," Celesta suggested to which Erza nodded a 'yes'. They cut through the shadows and sprinted so swiftly that they were nothing but fragments of darkness.
"This is Tigra Vermons home, let's just walk in," as she jumped over the tall front gates.
She put her hood up so she wouldn't be recognised by the servents and walked towards the door with Celesta closely following behind. The mansion was enormous and had elegant, polar white walls. Celesta was assessing the building just in case they needed an escape root.
Erza knocked on the door, "I would like to meet Lord Tigra Vermon." The huge doors opened, revealing two well-dressed butlers and two lines of maids on each side of the ruby-red carpet leading up to the stairs. Their stood Tigra. A fine young man with beautiful red hair in a blue suit. His hazelnut eyes glinted off the bright, scorching sun through the glass panes. Behind him hung the proud flag of Elkia.
"Who are you and what do you want?" He asked hoarsely. Celesta immediately took out her short sword and said in a cold voice, "How dare you speak to her majesty like that, talk like that again and I'll cut your tongue off," Celesta would never allow anyone to show disrespect to the royal family as it greatly pissed her off. Tigra held Celesta stare and laughed, "She is no royal, she is dirty peasant including you, guard kick them out," his guards ran towards them and tried to apprehend them. Just before anything got out of hand, Erza raised her right hand and shouted "Enough!" The guards backed off hearing her dominating voice. Celesta withdrew her sword slightly trembling after hearing Erza shout.
"Lord Tigra Vermon, I have hoped that you've matured from the last time I have seen you but cleary you yourself have proved me wrong. Tigra froze. "Th-that voice, no it can't be, you should be dead, Princess Erza?"
He was utterly in shock when Erza pulled down her heavy hood. The black edge of her cloak was dancing with the breeze that was coming from the open door.
She gave him a deathly smile and said, "Long time no see Tigra, or shall I say, Lord Tigra." Tigra became pale, they didn't end on good terms last time they saw each other. Tigra was absolutely petrified of her, that he didn't even dare to break her stare.
"Let's talk in my office," he stuttered, he didn't Erza to embarrass him in front of his staff, especially the maids. "Of course, lead the way," Erza replied with a smirk on her face. She knew very well how Tigras perverted mind worked.
Celesta glared at Tigra's back assessing every movement of his muscles. Erza noticed a thin, long and transparent string hanging across the stairs, "Stop!" Erza she exclaimed.
Everyone froze and at the same time, an arrow shot passed Erza's face and into Tigra's legs. Tigra screamed in agony as a few of the maids lifted Tigra out of the mansion to tend to his wounds. The guards and Celesta drew their swords as Erza knitted her eyebrows as if she was on a battlefield searching for her prey. Her eyes sparkled as she caught an arrow that aimed for the head with heir left hand and immediately threw daggers at the direction it came from not so long after a scream of anguish filled the room. Everyone was in awe that the princess had the most gifted sight. Her senses were as sharp as ever and a masked person with a masculine body lunged for her. She grabbed his wrist and flipped him over breaking his rib and leaving him unconscious. Erza knew that the guards were too weak to handle assassin type martial artists and screamed, "Everyone must get out, now!" The whole mansion was in a panic as everyone was screaming and running for their lives. The mansion was empty, leaving only Celesta and Erza along with their univited guests.
