BIG SORRY this is late, was waiting for laxmun to get his pics ready, until then enjoy the stories ><
Looking around the room and finding nothing to complain about, the scarlet haired mage frowned and requiped to her pajamas. She shouldn't have expected much before the tournament even started anyway. She sat with a 'thumph' on the bed and scowled at the ticking clock exhaling noisily. Midnight was in five minutes. Where had those fool gone? They knew the rules!
How long had it been now? Six months for the tenroujima folks that team natsu had been formed and everything in the guild seemed to go for the better. She smiled thinking about her teammates, Natsu and Gray, how many times had they chased each other childishly -ending with the two boys beaten into a pulp- over who stole her cheesecake.
Happy, how much joy had they felt when he had hatched from his egg, five minutes before they had all been at each others throats, it was really an appropriate name she had to admit. He had been really brave and a true fairy tail mage in edolas she had to admit.
And Lucy, that girl was so joyful, she had seemed lonely to her in the beginning and perhaps that's why titania had been pushed to become like an older sister for the girl. The girl had also been hiding, like Erza had been used to doing with her armor but the blonde had done with a mask of happiness. It made her feel more protective and more importantly trusting of Lucy because of that understanding. That was probably why Erza felt comfortable confiding in her. She hoped it was the same for Lucy.
Her team had proven that she was important to them in the tower of heaven. They had fought so hard for her sake she decided her life would be theirs, she would live to the fullest for her friends, her nakama, and for him as well. Erza placed her head in her hands, it was now only three minutes to midnight. Would it be considered romantic to be thinking of him? Jellal was back, they had lost seven years, but he was her Jellal, the softhearted and gentle boy she liked to remember, she almost couldn't believe it. She didn't care if he had to yet grasp at the light through redemption, she was just ecstatic to have him back.
Seven years, it was a tough wall to climb for fairy tail this time. Erza was sure they could do it, the team they had formed had become strong for their loved ones. feelings of this kind could not be easily trampled on. Whatever awaited them, they would push right through it towards the victory of Fairy Tail. Her smile became one of determination when she blinked as she heard the panicked footsteps
'She's going to kill us!" she heard Lucy grumble and she chuckled, perhaps she would just scold them and get some some. Opening the door at the right time to let the trio fall in she frowned at the absence of Wendy at first but proceeded to give a good scare to the three present. Yes, Fairy Tail was the best after all, there was nothing to worry about.
As Mirajane got out of Master's office, she let out a sigh, but there was something wrong... The guild's unexpectedly quiet, the whiteness looks around to see everyone lying on the floor or napping on the table, it's probably because of the hot weather they're having or it can be the fact that Natsu and Gray aren't here, because usually the two would start the fight, causing an uproar in the guild. Mirajane shook her head, 'no, she have other business to take care of' she thought to herself before spotted the person she was looking for. Erza. Erza was seem sitting there in the middle of eating her cheesecake and that was when the whitenette made her way over, "Hey Erza there's something I need to tell you." She said in a serious voice.
It's the end of the third day of the Grand Magic Games, Tessie and Alaina has finally came back from their mission. That was an eventful day alright, Fairy Tail made such an impact, Tessie couldn't help but mad and jealous... But there's no way Sabertooth can lose to them.
As the crimsonette scroll down the street of Crocus, she happen to bumped into the terribly wounded scarlet-haired woman Erza Scarlet, who single-handed defeat 100 monster. She was staring at her... "What do you want?" asked Tessie.
