Gate Holder of the Celtic Zodiac Keys, and also Natsu's younger sister?

Chapter 69: Connections

Yuki's Pov.

The announcer was saying the scores again. When they said Fairytail, the crowd went wild and after fireworks went off. I'm just said because once again I don't get to fight with my brother, but if I had tried to go with them Juvia would've been here instead of me and I can't have that. Besides, I wanted to redeem myself and now I get too.

"The final day! A survival game in which everyone participates!" The judge yelled into the mic enthusiastically. "Let the Grand Magic Game begin!" Fireworks again.

"And for this final battle, the battlefield is the entire city of Crocus-kabo!" Mato said from up in the seat next to Yajima, or well I assume he is still there because we are gone in the town.

"The members of each guild have already dispersed and are standing by."

I blocked them out as we stood by a lion statue. This was the plan. This was the plan. We have to go by the plan.

Even if this goddamn plan is bullshit because I barely get to do anything.

"Yuki, your head is in the game right?" Erza asked and I nodded looking at her as I let my ears appear along with my tail. We were assigning a leader right now. "Listen. We have no choice but to win. To get Lucy back!" Erza added so I casted my magic on everyone to boost them, not too much or it would run me dry.

"If Natsu and the others can't rescue her." I muttered.

"But we can't pin our hopes on that." Gajeel added.

"Even so, we've got another motive for winning this thing." Gray spoke now.

"We gotta win for the guys in the guild who had it rough while we were gone those seven years." I'm so happy Laxus is on our side now. Then there was an explosion to signify the game started.

"Let's go!" Erza yelled.

"Yeah!" We all yelled then lined up and closed our eyes. It was already into the fight but we still weren't moving. We had to stay calm. We had to follow Mavis' strategy. After a while, That's when we now moved.

Operation Fairy Star!

"Yeah!" We all yelled when Mavis told us to move. We had planned to stay still, it was all apart of the plan. We had checkpoints, and Mavis was telling us what to do and we all split up to do it. Rufus was going to attack us next. We were to dodge it in two seconds, and that's what we did, but Laxus got to block it since well, he's lightning. That caused Rufus to be worried and have a 68% to come towards us and a 32% chance he'll stay.

Now it was time for us all to run to our places. I was on rear guard. Thank god for our former master. I'm also just rear guard because I'm using my magic to boost everyone else. While I could attack also, I was just supposed to search for people in back and I guess I was fine with that. I just hope I don't run into Jura because at that point I'm supposed to escape. Also, fighting Sting would not be ideal. Also Minerva, I was told to no matter what, avoid her. This almost makes me want to find her and kick her ass, but I refuse to go against plan.

I guess my part is pretty boring and while I want to go help someone my part is to stay back. I knew though that Gray would be fighting Rufus right about now, and I knew he would win, no matter what Mavis said about the chances of him winning.... but I want to help him. Gray had made it very apparent that he would beat Rufus and that he wanted to do it. So that's how we got here.

That's when on the Lacrima I saw Gray fall and I tightened my hands into fists. I need to stay back. I need to stay back like Mavis said. I know Gray can do it. I had a cross on the back of my dress, I match Gray. Whether it is our clothing or our feelings, we match. I know Gray will beat Rufus. I have to trust that. I watched the fight from the Lacrima. Gray will win this. Gray will win this.
