Fairy Princess | Fairy Tail (TEMP HIATUS)

24 - Birth Secret

When I arrived at the Crocus Garden, the front entrance was busted down, and for some reason, Natsu was fighting their guild master. Before things could get uglier, I carefully approached the brawl and grabbed onto Natsu's scarf, forcing him away from the old man; at the same time, Ms. Minerva appeared in between the two with her territory magic.

"Minerva..." Saber's master growled.

"It wouldn't be good if you killed another team's participant, don't you think, Father?" Minerva reminded.

"Levina?! What are you doing?! Let me go!" Natsu struggled in my grasp.

"Shut up! Do you even know what you're doing right now?!" I scolded before quickly bowing to the Saber members in front of me, "I am terribly sorry for all the commotions one of our guild members caused. Although this might be asking for too much, I hope you can be so understanding to not hold this against our guild." I glared at Natsu and wrapped my hand around his head, forcing him to apologize as well, much to his protest.

"Levina! What are you doing?! Why are you apologizing to them?!" Natsu yelled.

"I told you to shut up, didn't I?! Do you want to go to war with them?! Think about the problems this can cause our guild!" I argued, "Do you not think before you act?!"

"She's right. And I just happened to catch a little kitten at the entrance. How about we end things here like mature adults, hm? If you leave now, we'll be kind enough to not hold you accountable for the damage and injuries you caused us, and I'll let the kitten go unharmed," Minerva negotiated as a tied up Happy appeared in her arms.

"I'm so sorry, Natsu! I got caught at the entrance!" Happy cried. Seeing Happy seems to calm Natsu down a little, so Minerva released the cat.

"It's okay. Sorry for leaving you," Natsu smiled at his partner, "Let's go home."

"Thank you so much for your understanding! Again, we're very sorry for all the trouble," I apologized once more before following Natsu out the door. The three of us walked back in silence.

"... I won't tell the master what happened, but please, please, please, think before you act next time," I sighed.

"They totally deserved it!" Natsu retorted.

"It doesn't matter. What do you think would happen if you accidentally hurt one of their participating members, huh? Do you want us to get disqualified? Do you think we have money to repay them for the damage and medical fees?" I questioned, "I wouldn't be surprised if they become even more aggressive towards us during the Games, so you're just making it harder for yourself and the rest of the team."

"Easy for you to say! Do you even know what happened to Yukino?" Natsu argued.

"I have an idea, and I do agree that what happened to her is wrong, but you don't fight a wrong with another wrong," I said, "If you want to use your fist, then show them during the Games, not outside of the arena."

When we returned, Natsu left for Team A's room while I rejoined Team B down at the bar.

"What happened?" Mira asked.

"... Natsu stormed Sabertooth's hotel and fought their master," I answered after making sure grandpa wasn't here.

"HE WHAT?!" the others screamed.

"You know that girl from Saber who lost today? She was humiliated in front of everyone and kicked out of the guild; she came to see Lucy earlier today, and her story seemed to piss Natsu off, so yeah..." I explained.
