Sunlight [Sting Eucliffe]

Chapter 12 ☆彡

"Cleaving Hook Palm.. That's an unusual style of martial art." Yajima muttered. "Actually I've never seen it myself." Jason said. "COOOOOOL!!!!~~"

"Hey is that.." Happy trailed off. "The move we saw at the bat accident." Wakaba said. "Dammit. Isn't there anything he could do?" Macao asked.

"Elfman'll figure out a way." Evergreen said. "He's more than just a big lug."

"That's right." Lisanna added. "We've got to believe in him."

Then Bacchus attack Elfman again, and sent him flying. "Wild..." He said. "..FOUR!!!" Rocker, Jäger, Nobarly, and Semmes screamed.

"Stand up, Elfman!" Cana yelled.

"The movements of the drunken Bacchus are as powerful as they are unpredictable." Mirajane said. "Huh? But he hasn't had anything to drink yet, right?" Juvia asked.

"Then.." Lucy trailed off. "He isn't trying hard at all.." Gray muttered. Elfman went back to his regular form.

"Oh, my! Elfman's Take Over has come undone!" Chapati yelled. "Not only has he consumed a lot of magic power, but it also goes to show how powerful that attack was." Yajima said. "Cleaving Hook Palm is COOOOLLLL!~~" Jason yelled.

"You're a man, aren't you?" Bacchus asked him. "You'll keep your promise, right?"

"Can Elfman rise again?!" Chapati asked. Lisanna and Mirajane looked down, nervous. "Oh, and I forgot one important thing. Today the Grand Magic Games official mascot and judge, Mato-kun has the day off, so I'm filling in as the judge too."

"Two roles! Cooooolll!~~ Two roles, COOOOLLLLL!!!!~~~~" Jason yelled, spinning around.

"The day off?" Wakaba asked in disbelief. "Why? All he needs to take a break is change his innards." Macao said. "You shouldn't say 'innards'!" Happy exclaimed.

Elfman stood up.

"So you are standing up? I guess that repetition of the word 'man' wasn't for nothing." Bacchus said. "Come to think of it, I didn't decide yet, hound dog." Elfman saiid. "Huh?" Bacchus muttered.

"The bet.. What happens if I win.." Elfman asks. "Well, there's no chance of that, so go ahead, whatever you want." Bacchus said.

Elfman smirked, "If I win, the name of your guild is Quatro Puppy for the duration of the Games." Elfman decided.

Bacchus held in his laughter, and his guild members yelled.

"Puppy? As in little dog?" Juvia asked. "Four puppies..?" Mirajane muttered. "I like that! Make 'em say it, Elfman!" Cana yelled.

"Okay, okay. That does it." Bacchus announced. . "Bottom's up!" He picked up his booze, and began to chug it down

"He drank the booze!" Gray yelled. "It's coming.. Elfman!" Erza yelled. "Now he's serious!" Lucy yelled. "AHHHHHH!" Natsu screamed.

"Uh-oh! Bacchus has hit the bottle at last!" Chapati yelled. "Drunken Cleaving Hook Palm.." Yajima said. "This is the first time I've seen it with my very own eyes! COOOOLLL!!~~" Jason screamed.

"Come and get me." Bacchus slurred, and got in a fighting stance. "You should easily be able to beat a drunk like me."

"Beast Soul.." Elfman chanted, while he was getting taken over. "It's no use!!" Bacchus yelled, and attacked him. "Elfman!" Evergreen yelled.

"That's Drunken Cleaving Hook Palm!!" Lisanna exclaimed. "I-I don't know what happened because I couldn't see it!" Happy exclaimed. "I-Incredible.." Cana stuttered.

"That just did a lot of damage, didn't it?" Juvia said. "Yes. But.." Mirajane trailed off.

Bacchus laughed loudly, his cheeks red. "How was that?" But his purple armor/top began to crumble. "What the hell is this?! My hands.."
