Chapter 4: A Flash Of Hope (Samei)

  (A/N: Samei's name is pronounced Sohm (like saw with an m at the end)- ay (like the letter), just in case you were reading it wrong, it just occurred to me that you can say her name multiple ways) 

"And in eighth place, we have Fairy Tail!" the announcer yelled. After a few seconds, the crowd booed. What got their panties in a twist? 

We- obviously, as Sting would add- made it to the GMG (the Grand Magic Games). 

The announcer announced (duh) the seventh place guild's name. 

I wasn't listening though. We were in a cozy room, that served as our dugout, before we were called into the arena. It had a few chairs, and a couch, and on one side of the room, there was a set of HUGE doors, that lead us to the arena. We were waiting for our guild name to be called, once we were called we would go out those awesome doors, I was so excited! Everyone on the team except Yukino and I were pretty annoyed that we- being the first guild to finish the Sky Labyrinth preliminary- had to wait for our guild name to be called (because they were going from last to finish, to first to finish).

Olga was glaring down at the book he had brought from our hotel, claiming he wasn't going to be doing anything today anyways, so he might as well curl up in a in a very girlish away and catch up on all the twilight or some other chick-book he had... OK... so he didn't actually say that... but... that's what he meant!

Sting and Rogue were muttering back-and-forth with each other in the corner of the room, probably coming up with a plan. I learned over the past few months that they were the the ultimate tag team. At EVERYTHING!!! But it was kind of creepy...

Yukino was anxiously looking around. Although she didn't voice it, I could tell she was nervous, her constant fidgeting gave it away.

And in case you're wondering, which you obviously weren't, or if you were, you shouldn't have been, I took Rufus's place. It's because he's stupid. Ahem, erm, excuse me, actually (and sadly) no, (although he is stupid) Rufus was being stupid (or a show off, which is even worse) and was on the top floor of a guild when he was called to be a member of the Sabertooth Grand Magic Games team he attempted to dramatically float down to the first floor from the second floor balcony by using magic. His magic somehow *cough* carma *cough* (excuse me, I think I have a cold) didn't work. And he broke his arm, I was torn between thinking that it may have been one of the funniest things I've ever seen, and how classy he looked when it happened. Note the sarcasm. By a matter of defaults, mishaps, and maybe a few pulled strings from behind the scenes (by Sting, I think), I happily took his place on the team. (Rufus will regret this until he-, no, scratch that, for all eternity)

" Alright! We have one more guild to introduce!" Said the announcer.

The crowd cheered.

"That's right! You know who it is! They are the strongest, invincible, indisputable champions!"

Yukino took a deep breath and we all got up, then proceeded to walk out into the arena. 

"Sabertooth!"

As we exited, Sting lift his arms in the air, enjoying the fame and the roar of the crowd.

Roguey-poo was stoic. (As usual)

Yukino was still nervous, I would never admit it, but so was I, a little bit, but you could never tell.

Olga held a fist to the crowd and smirked. I rolled my eyes. Now he acts and enthusiastic.
