Running out of the infirmary, Natsu came to a sudden stop, sniffing the air for any leads to Carla or Wendy. Upon getting a good lead, he dashed towards where it was leading him.

When he came outside, he saw four guards running away with Wendy, Por, and Carla in their arms, sleeping. "There they are!" Running towards them, he shouted, "Where do you think you're taking Wendy and Carla?!" Hence, they ran faster. However, Natsu started gaining momentum. "Hold it right there!"

"H-he's really fast!" one said

"Isn't he the one who wobbled slowly through the last race?!" another said

However, one of the guards stopped, took out his guns, preparing to fight. "This is the best way to handle a wizard..." Thus, he let his buddies find a way to escape. Before he could finish saying 'freeze', Natsu ran forwards, and brought him down.

"Outta my way!" Running faster, he left the guard behind him as he fell to the ground. "You jerks! Give me back my friends!"

"What's with this guy?!"

"He's really scary, that jerk!"

"He's about to catch up with us!" Bringing Carla in the air, the guard panicked. "What'll we do?!"

"We got no choice; let's dump the other two!"

"D-don't talk, stupid!"

"the order was to grab the girl who was in the team infirmary!" Thus, caused Natsu to listen in. "Grannies and cats aren't girls!"

While turning towards his friend, one guard deadpanned. "Then why bring 'em with us in the first place?!"

"Hey, wait! The granny's still a girl!"

"She's not a girl, she's ancient!"

However, before they could react, they saw Sora, in her dragon form, flying. Smirking, she flew downwards, and stood in their way. "Didn't your mom ever teach ya to respect your elders?" Before they could get a word in, she threw fire towards them.

Reacting fast, two of them dodged while their friend got hit with the fire, dropping, the one who was rude towards elders, Wendy in the process. Screaming out with pain, he tried to extinguish the fire. "Get this off of me, you idiots!"

Walking towards them, they only looked up to catch a glance of her murderous stare. Backing away, they looked behind to try to escape only to see Natsu doing the same.

"U-uh guys, what do we do now?"

"...Run!" As they tried to get away, Natsu ran forwards, causing them to turn back only to be closed in.

"Now, either you guys answer our question, or we burn you to ashes. Which will it be?!" Sora said.

"W-we'll answer your questions!" While one said this nervously, the others nodded quickly.

"Good." Turning towards Natsu, she gave him the go to ask.

"Who do you work for?!"

Meanwhile, Elfman was on the ground, trying to catch his breath, while Bacchus stood up, smirking.

"This battle is completely one-sided! Elfman can't lay a finger on Bacchus!" Chapati announced.

"It'll be a dream night with two gorgeous sisters! I like it!" Bacchus said.

With Magi, aside from Sin, Bacchus reminded them of someone.

"You know, he's kinda like Sinbad..." Alibaba said.

"What is that supposed to mean?!" Hence, they ignored him as they started to say their own opinions. "You do know I'm right here, right?" Sighing, Sin pouted. Looking towards Morg, he asked if she agreed with them.

"You do have a lot of encounters with girls, and spending the night with them." As the others laughed, Sin continued to whine and pout.

With Elfman, he got up, and went into 'Beast Soul: War Tiger!'. Running towards Bacchus, he threw fast punches only for Bacchus to dodge every single one. As Elfman threw a kick his way, Bacchus dodged, then kicked him in the air, landing gracefully.

"Wild?" Bacchus said. Hence, his friends yelled 'Wild'.

With Fairy Tail Team A, Gray started to get irritated. "Elfman's attacks don't even touch him at all!"

"It may be because of that guy's weird movements." Lucy suggested.

Arms crossed over her chest, Erza continued to watch the fight. "His magic gathers power into the palms of his hands. It's a relatively normal magic power. But his secret is that he built up his body with martial training so he can use his magic at its maximum level. He uses a martial art called 'Pigua Quan'. As you can see from his odd stance, it's a martial art that involves palm strikes.

"Another frightening aspect is that he's taken this martial art and changed it to suit him personally. He's blended it to make a style called 'Drunken Pigua Quan'."

"Drunken? You mean like on liquor?" Gray asked.

"Yes. It's impossible to predict where the Drunken Hawk will strike. And he's raised the power of his ultimate attack to devastating effect. That isn't our only problem; he hasn't drunk a drop of the liquor in that bottle."

"That means..." Lucy started.

"He hasn't even gotten serious yet?" Gray finished.

In the air, Bacchus threw Elfman to the ground. Landing to the ground, he licked his lips as he saw Elfman on the ground. "You're a man, right? You'd better keep that promise!"

"Can it be that Elfman can't get up?!" . Chapati said."By the way, since our Games' official mascot and referee, Mato, (Who's the pumpkin), is taking a well-deserved break...I'm taking the referee position."

Getting up, Elfman panted as he bended over. "By the way, we haven't decided on your end, Mr. Hound Dog."

"Hm?"

"Our bet...What happens if I win?" Smirking, Elfman waited for his answer.

"It's completely impossible, so...sure! Say it; whatever you want."

"If I win, your Guild name...for the rest of the Games will be Quatro Puppy."

Busting out laughing, Bacchus picked up his jug. "Okay, okay! It's decided!" Gulping it down, he said, "So...I guess it's time for me to finish this." Throwing it aside, he threw himself forward as Elfman was about to turn into one of his Beast Souls. "No chance!"

As he sent 7 punches in one instant Elfman's way, he turned his head laughing. However, he looked at his hands, only to see them bruised and cut into. "What is this?! My hands!"

On the contrary, Elfman turned into 'Lizard Man!'. Smirking, he said, "If I can't hit you, then I guess I'll let you hit me."

"He almost looks like Drakon!" Sin said, amazed.

"Interesting power in this world..." Kouen calculated.

"I don't like that look he's givin' off..." Alibaba and Muu said as the others shivered from his look.

"Don't even think about it, Kouen!" they all said, aside from Morg who scooted away from him.

Beckoning Bacchus to himself, Elfman said, "All right! Come on! Your fists against my body...let's make this match about which one breaks first! What do you say?!"

Laughing, Bacchus walked forwards. "You're pretty fun! I feel my spirit trembling!"

As they launched themselves forwards, Bacchus threw different attacks while Elfman simply stood there.

"Th-this is nothing short of...heroic! It's less a battle of fists, and more two wills bashing up against each other!" Chapati said. "One straining the limits of attack...and the other straining the limits of enourance! So which...will come out...the victor?!"

As the dust cleared, you could see them both trying to stand up from panting. Before long, the were on their knees.

Looking towards the sky, Bacchus was the first to speak. "You...said your...name was...Elfman?" As Elfman couldn't get any words out, he panted and tried to breath. Laughing, Bacchus smiled, stood up, and threw his arms in the air.

"And the one standing is Bacchus!" Chapati said. While the crowd cheered, Fairy Tail cried.

Trembling, Bacchus kept his head towards the sky. "You really are...a man!" Smiling, he fell backwards.

"He's down; Bacchus is down! The winner is Elfman! Fairy Tail A gains 10p! Which brings them to 12p!" As he heard Fairy Tail and Magi cheer, he smiled. "Does this war cry signal the resurgence of Fairy Tail?! Elfman: he chalks up a win against an extremely power opponent!" While saying this, Elfman threw his fists in the air and cried out in happiness.

Meanwhile, Natsu, Wendy, Por (who stood away from them), Sora, and Carla watched the entire fight.

"Whoa! Listen to those cheers!" Natsu said.

"That was wonderful, Elfman!" Wendy said.

"We're finally gaining up on the others!" Sora jumped in the air as she said this.

"Wendy, are you all right?" Carla asked.

Turning away from the battle, Wendy fisted her hands, smiling. "Yeah! I'm just fine now! Thank you, Grnadeeney!"

"I really wish you wouldn't call me that." Looking towards where the guards were, who were taken away, Por said, "I want to know about those men."

"Yes!"

Fumed with anger, Natsu said, "Raven Tail!"

" 'Was' in the team infirmary...Past tense?" Wendy tilted her head.

"And there 'was' one. Natsu carried her in..." Por looked towards Natsu.

"...Lucy!" Carla's eyes widened.

On the side, Sora looked down while tapping her chin. Upon noticing this, Natsu asked her what was wrong. "It just...It just doesn't make sense why Raven would want Lucy..."

"Who cares! They'll do anything to throw us off the board!"

"...Yeah..."

Meanwhile~~~~~~~~

In the castle, the guard stood tall in front of Arcadios. "The plan was a failure, Sir."

"Fool! They got the wrong girl! Didn't you even describe her to them?"

"I beg your forgiveness."

Sighing, Arcadios shook his head. "What's done is done. At least our Plan B went smoothly. Where are the kidnappers now?"

"We've sent them to the dungeons."

"Nobody's found out, right?"

"No one, Sir! They said that the employer was from Raven Tail."

Smirking, Arcadios started to walk away. "The discord between Fairy Tail and Raven Tail was easy to exploit. And in the confusion, we will obtain the Celestial Wizard to further Operation: Eclipse!"
