Phantom Lord Mecha Lower Rooftop.. Few minutes before Goku falling into the Lake..

In the rainy rooftop we could see Gray running away at super-sonic speeds from Juvia's boiling wave of water that she was controlling through her mastery of water. Thanks to the reflexes he has been honing through Goku's training, the Ice-maker mage was able to evade the boiling water coming at him but it didn't leave him any time to retaliate back..

"At this rate I'll be overwhelmed by the boiling water! I need a distraction so I can take off my weighted wristbands and go all out!" said Gray to himself with a frustrated expression as he dodge another boiling water stream. Then his eyes went wide as he came with a quick plan to distract his opponent, with a loud yell Gray punches the floor of the rooftop which causes to crack and breakdown around the battlefield. This surprised Juvia since she didn't expect her crush to do something like that meanwhile he falls into the hole he created..

"Ice Maker: Wall!" shouted Gray as he creates a Ice wall around the hole he created to block off Juvia from coming down. As he lands on the lower floor, Gray quickly began to take off his weighted wristbands and began to channel all his Ki around his body "Alright! I should be able to fight her-!"

However, before he could finish his sentence the Ice Wall began to quickly melt by a boiling water stream that shot right through. Gray with a serious expression extends his right arm and catches the attack, in the next second he begins to freeze the boiling water stream through the use of his Magic. This was noticed by Juvia who showed a surprised expression after seeing how all the boiling water around her began to freeze..

"He's able to freeze Juvia's boiling water?! But that's impossible! No Ice mage should be able to do this!" exclaimed the blue-haired mage with a shocked expression as she saw Gray jumping back into the rooftop with a blue aura dancing around his body "Not only that, Juvia can sense that darling's Magic power has increased as well!"

"And we only barely scratching the surface of what I'm capable of doing currently!" responded Gray with a cocky smirk as he got into a battle position once again "Now come at me with everything you got!"

"No.." exclaimed Juvia with a firm tone of voice as she looks at Gray with concerned expression "I don't have the will to damage you!"

"What?" said the Ice-maker with a confused expression as he didn't expect that answer from her "Are you saying this because you're afraid to face me with my current power?"

"That's not the reason darling..!" exclaimed the blue-haired mage back as she looks at the side with ashamed expression "If Juvia unleashes the full capabilities of a Water Mage, Juvia might end up killing him by accident! Juvia can't afford that situation to happen!"

Without even realizing it, the rain was beginning to pour even harder than usual thanks to Juvia's emotions affecting her near environment. This of course annoyed the Ice-maker since it was making his view getting blurry..

"Tch! This rain is really getting on my nerves! I really hope it stops soon!" commented Gray with a annoyed tone of voice. However, what he didn't realized that Juvia was able to hear his comment which made her shake her head in frustration as she clenches her fist..

"Not you too darling..! Even he doesn't like the rain just like the others..!" said Juvia within her mind with frustration as she unconsciously began to increase her Magic power, along with her body sizzling from the boiling water she was producing "Juvia is disappointed darling..! Juvia was expecting you to be different from the others but it seems that's not the case! Then Juvia is not going to hold herself back against you! Juvia hopes you can survive this encounter!"
