Griffon POV

Dragons of every shape and size filled the cobblestone seats in the arena. I looked around amazed. I had never seen so many dragons in one place. As each one took their seat, they would change into their human form.

Wow.

"Amazing isn't it?" I heard Lucy say.

Um ya just a lot. Where are you?

"Over here. At the end of the colosseum." She said.

Sure enough, as I looked down the to the far end of the large structure, I saw Lucy waving like a crazy person. I chuckled and started jogging towards her. She was wearing and outfit similar to the day before. In fact, the only difference was the addition of black lace to her ensemble. It took me a moment to realize that she was sitting at a table eating breakfast and having tea with her three advisors and Ms. Tempestatis.

"So this is why it was dead quiet this morning. Everyone was here." I said, gesturing to the scene unfolding around me.

"Didn't you get my message lacrima? Oceanum asked.

"No I didn't..." I said confused.

"I believe you sent it to my room, Oceanum. It was on my desk this morning. I started playing it and assumed you had sent it to my room by mistake." She said.

"Ah okay. Well at least it explains the missing lacrima." Oceanum said, stating the last part of the sentence to herself.

"Griffon are you hungry?" Ignis asked, pointing to the food on the table.

"Oh sorry. I ate in the dinning hall." I chuckled.

We spoke for a few more minutes, and then Stellae stood up.

"I believe everyone is here now. Are you two ready to start?" She asked.

I looked at Lucy and then back to Stellae before nodding. I assumed she nodded too, because Stellae snapped her fingers and the table disappeared.

As Lucy and I walked to the center of the arena, the entire colosseum became silent. She curtsied to me and I bowed back. Oceanum had once explained to me that it was proper fighting etiquette.

Before I knew what was happening, a cloud of pink smoke encircled Lucy, and she reemerged wearing her training outfit.

Stellae walked to the center of the arena. Her voice rang out.

"Begin!"
