A/N: Hey, guys! Sorry the fight was short, but I'm glad people enjoyed it. Like I said, I'm not very good at fights that I have to write myself. I'm better at describing a fight in manga. Besides, I'd rather it be short and great than long and terrible. And they look way better in my head.

If you can, try and give me pointers on writing a long, great fight scene. It's what I need to work on. So, please help me! Any tip will help.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In town, under a bridge, Jellal and Erza talked about the magical presence.

"You don't sense the magic?" Erza asked with her arms crossed as she looked at him seriously.

"That's right...We have yet to sense anything of...that magic much like Zeref's that we sense here every year."

"What does that mean?"

Looking down, Jellal closed his eyes. "I can think of several possibilities. If the magic were connected to a particular person, he or she may not be attending this year. Or that person is not using that magic in Crocus. It's also possible that this wizard is part of a team, but has not yet participated in a match.

"If the magic stems from some magical device or from some place...the device has not yet been activated or some filter has been installed to ensure that no magic has seeped out."

"In any case, that fact that you aren't sensing the magic means that nothing is going on right now."

"I hope that is true." Walking away, he continued. "Tomorrow, I plan to investigate the Games' backers."

"Don't do anything to get yourself noticed."

"I know. Ultear has already hammered that point into me."

Chuckling, she smiled as she watched him. "Don't overdo it."

Turning towards her, he smiled. Turning around, he waved towards her. "Good night, Erza."

"Yes." Glancing at him, she turned away to walk away.

Stopping, he watched her walk away. 'I never thought I'd have the chance to speak normally like that with her again...Thank you, Erza...'

With Erza, she kept her gaze forwards. "It's gotten late. Even the drinking parties are over."

However, a girl with a cat hat on said, "Finally! I've found you!"

Stopping, Erza looked towards her. "Who's there?"

Laughing, the girl leaned towards the railing. "Are you pumped up?" Smiling, Erza knew exactly who that was just from her words. Smiling, Millianna sat on the railing. Waving, she looked at Erza. "Er-chan! Long time, no see!"

"Millianna!"

Before Erza could react, Milli jumped towards her. Catching Milli, she embraced her. "I missed you so much!"

Laughing, Erza caught her. "Millianna!" Hugging her, they both took a step back. "You're in a Guild now?"

"Yep! Mermaid Heel!"

"Did Sho and Wally join the same Guild?"

"What are you talking about? Mermaid Heel's an all-girls Guild!"

"So it is."

Chuckling, Milli tilted her head to the side as she closed her eyes. "They're still out journeying. But we stay in touch."

"Is that right...?" Smiling, Erza hugged Milli again. "But I'm so happy to see you, Millianna!"

"So am I, Er-chan!"

"I'm overjoyed to see you healthy." With that, they both started crying, telling each other not to.

Meanwhile, at Sabertooth's lodgings, Crocus Garden, the Guild Master, Jiemma ate grapes in a chair. "You are too pathetic even to cry over. You pieces of trash!" he shouted at everyone, who were standing at a distance away from him, watching quietly. "Just remember why we stand above all the other wizard Guilds! You do not see worms; you do not listen to them; you crush them beneath your feet! The only things that catch our attention are bigger fish, like that Sora girl for instance! You make the heavens roar; you make the earth boil; you silence the seas! That is Sabertooth!"

Done eating his grapes, he looked at them. "Sting!"

Stepping forwards, Sting said, "Yes."

"I am allowing you a single remaining chance. You will never show me a performance like that again. And make sure to get that girl into our Guild. She could become a great asset to boost Sabertooth's reputation."

Bowing, Sting closed his eyes. "Thank you. I will not fail to meet your expectations from now on. I will do my absolute best to bring Sora into Sabertooth." Stepping away, he stood next to Rogue, who glared at him.

"Yukino."

Stepping forwards, Yukino said, "Yes."

"No lame excuse can help you! You know that, don't you?"

"Yes...I was defeated by a single member of another Guild...That fact sullies the name of Sabertooth." She dared not to look into his eyes.

Grabbing his grapes, he threw them at her face. "That isn't it at all; you bet your life and lost! Then you received pity from the enemy! that is not Sabertooth!"

"Yes...I am ready to accept whatever punishment you deem appropriate."

"Strip off you clothes! "

Closing her eyes, she agreed. "As you say." After stripping her clothes away, she blushed as she covered her cleavage, looking down.

"Your Guild mark...make it vanish!"

Trembling, she bowed. "...Yes." On the ground, she kneeled before him. "It has only been a short time...but I thank you for your hospitality."

"Get the h*ll out! Trash!"

Afterwords, Sting, Rogue, Lector, and Fro walked in the hallways.

"He always goes to extremes...the Master..." Sting sighed as he rubbed the back of his head.

"What do you expect? That's how we got to be the strongest Guild, right?" Lector said.

"Fro is sad." Fro said, looking down.

Stopping, Rogue looked at Sting. "Is that what a 'Guild' is?"

"Huh?" Sting looked at him, curious.

"Yukino was a comrade."

Smirking, he narrowed his eyes. "She was weak, so she's gone. The strongest Guild doesn't need those types, right?"

"You're not going to get Sora in this 'Guild', are you?"

"Why not? It'll be easier for me to make a move on her, if she is." Smirking, Sting narrowed his eyes towards Rogue. "Why? Don't you think she would make a great Guildmate if she were. She's strong, after all! Fairy Tail doesn't deserve someone that strong. She deserves to be with us- me." Walking away, he glanced at Rogue. "Once Sora is in Saber, she'll have nowhere to run from me. I'm not backing down, Rogue! We both know that we have feelings for her, so I'm making sure she falls for me!"

Catching up, Lector said, "Come to think of it, I hear the Princess will be takin' Yukino's spot."

"Ohh! That means all of us 5 strongest will be together! And with Sora, we'll be even unstoppable with 6 of us!"

Looking up, Fro started crying. "Rogue...Fro is pretty weak. Will Fro be 'gone' also?"

Smiling, his face softened. "You're not going anywhere, Frosch. Because you have me on your side."

"Yeah! Fro isn't going anywhere!" Blinking away his tears, Fro smiled. "And Rogue will be with Sora! We'll all be a family!"

Blushing, Rogue stumbled. "R-right..."

Meanwhile, Magi, Natsu, Sora, Charle, Happy, Wendy, and Lucy walked in the city.

"Ahh...I really packed it in!" Natsu rubbed his stomach.

"You ate way too much!" Sora said.

"You better not be callin' me fat!"

"And what if I am? What're you gonna do 'bout it, fatty?"

Before he could get his revenge, Lucy glared at them. Gulping, they said, 'yes ma'am' while holding each other. Sighing, she looked at Wendy.

"Is the hotel nearby?"

"Yeah! We're almost there now!" Getting a thought, Wendy blushed. "We aren't all sharing one room, are we?"

"Yeah...And it's the worst! Natsu's snoring can shatter glass, and Gray gets suddenly nude. Then Erza climbs into bed with me!" Sighing, she sweat dropped. Blinking, Lucy looked towards Sora. "Hey, Sora. Why aren't you with your team? Shouldn't you be with them?"

"I wanted to be with Natsu. Plus, I have a feeling that something's gonna happen tonight."

Turning towards Magi, Lucy deadpanned. "And what's your reason for following us?"

"We're with Sora." They all stated.

Sighing, she mumbled, "They're like her fans or something..." Sighing, she watched them. "Shouldn't you be going to the main hotel for Fairy Tail? You're not participating in the Games, after all."

"How could I abandone my precious Sora?" Sin asked, hugging her.

"Hey! Get off of my sister!" Natsu tried pulling him off.

"Not unless she wants me off."

"Alright. I want you off." Sora pried him off her.

"Sora, how could you?!"

Laughing, Muu and Kouen smirked. "You just got rejected." As Sin glared at them, Magi laughed at his attempts to swoon her.

High-fiving each other, Natsu grinned. "That's the sister I know!"

"You bet!"

"Hey! Where are Gray and Erza?" Happy asked.

"Poor, poor Gray." Shrugged, Charle smiled. "I hear he got ambushed and carted off by Lyon."

"And Erza?" Natsu asked.

"Come to think of it, I haven't seen her." Lucy said.

"She said she had somethin' to do alone." Sora said.

"I don't think she's alone!" Happy teased.

"Hm? There's somebody standing in front of our hotel." Natsu said as they all stopped.

"Yeah." Sora said.

"Who might it be...?" Wendyasked.

"You guys have good eyes!" Lucy sweat dropped as she squinted her eyes. Upon seeing the figure, her eyes widened.

Walking up to her, Sora and Natsu's eyes widened. "It's you!"

"The Celestial Wizard..." Wendy started.

"...from Sabertooth." Lucy finished.

Back with Erza and Milli, they sat on a bench.

Looking down, Milli stared at the ground. "The truth is I wanted us to win the Games, then I'd reveal who I was...to surprise you and everybody else." Leaning towards Erza, she placed her head on her shoulder. "But I couldn't wait! I wanted to see you and talk to you as soon as I could!"

"What shall we do with you?" Sighing, Erza looked at her. "But I must say how impressed I was at the strength of Kagura from your Guild."

"She's great! If it came to blows, she might even be stronger than you!"

"I hope she and I can face off at some point." Erza crossed her arms as Milli took her head off.

"You may even get the chance during these Games. Oh...But Kagura-chan may never get really serious during the Games."

"Is that right?"

"You saw her use that Fugutaiten sheathed sword, right?"

"Quite a violent name for a sword."

Looking down, Milli's eyes narrowed. "The name means 'archenemy', and Kagura-chan won't draw it unless it's to cut down her nemesis. An enemy whom she hates so much that it's impossible to live in the same world as that person.

"It's meant for a man who stole everything from her. The sword is specifically meant to kill Jellal."

"Huh?" Erza's eyes widened as she heard this.

Smiling darkly, she looked at her as darkness clouded her judgement. "I'm with her on that! You feel the same way too, right, Erza?

"Oh, I really hate Jellal, too...He made us into slaves again. He murdered Simon! I will never forgive or forget! That's why I wanted to enter the same Guild as Kagura-chan!

While hearing this, Erza frowned.
