Gajeel looks at me, seeing me raise my fists, preparing to fight. "Hell no you're not fighting!" Gajeel pushes me back lightly as I scowl. "And why not? Juvia isn't weak!" I declare as Gajeel grunts. "Aria was the strongest, but now I am, I feel like I can take down Aria!" Gajeel says as I sigh. "Does that mean Juvia can assist Totomaru and Levy?" I ask as Gajeel shakes his head. "If the chance ever comes, then you must fight Aria." Gajeel declares as Juvia nods. "Okay then, but Juvia is still going to be by your sid--"

Gajeel lightly pushes me into a bar of metals as I am now restricted. A smirk appears on his face as he cracks his knuckles. "Hey! Gajeel!" I groan as Aria takes a look at me. "Why have you restricted Phantom Queen? Of all things you could do..." Aria starts to cry again. "It pains me to see the Queen like that!" He sniffles as I groan, and Gajeel frowns. "I know, but it pains me a whole lot if I see her get beaten the crap out of!" Gajeel says as my eyes widen. "Gajeel..." I say softly.

Gajeel then gets into his fighting position. "Ya know, I'd never let you have a munch of my metal, but wouldn't you like the taste of iron come from your own blood!" Gajeel laughs as he then bolts forward, preparing for his battle, soon being thrown back as he then runs again, hitting his fists against a barrier that was invisible. "What the hell! What the hell is this?!" He growls in frustration as I gasp, immediately remember the power of Aria. "Gajeel run!" I shout as Aria then throws Gajeel into a full sky of air. "Aghhh!!!" Gajeel gasps painfully.

"Gajeel!" I struggle to break free from the iron, but it was then I remember, I'm water. Slowly, I turn into water and make my way out as I jump out. "Hang on, Big brother Gajeel, Juvia is coming to save you!" I say as Gajeel pants, before forcing himself to throttle forward and punch Aria with as much strength as possible. Aria sniffles, before throwing Gajeel into an air vortex. "Aghhh!!!! Shit!!! This thing is draining my power!!!" I gasp as I can't handle hearing my brother in pain. My anger soon rages as thunder claps in the background.

"Mm? Queenie, what's wrong with you?" Aria smiles, as the tears continue on. I cringe before he then takes off his blindfold, and I gasp, remembering what could happen. It was then, I decided to raise my heat intensity in my water slicer and break through, slowly, forcing myself to go through Aria's air obstacle course. "J-Juvia..." Gajeel groans, as I keep using water slicer. "The sooner this fight is over, the sooner we can see Levy and Totomaru!"
