A Railgun in Fairy Tail Book 3: Bridge Between Worlds

First Event, GET THAT FLAG!!!

"Okeydokey!!" said Mato the pumpkin headed mascot cheerfully. "Looks like all the participating members are in attendence for our first event!!"

Back in the stadium, the first event was just about to kick off. The guild members participating in the first event were as follows.

Khufanos Viper of Fright Face.

Agnese Sanctis of Cross Arcana (Necessarius).

Eve Tearm of Blue Pegasus.

Lyon Vastia of Lamia Scale.

Semmes of Quatro Cerberus (last name unknown at this point) Who in Mikoto's opinion, could have passed for a super large circus performer with the giant X on his front and the make up on his face.

Milliana of Mermaid Heel.

Rufus Lore of Sabertooth.

And finally there was Mikoto Misaka who was representing Fairy Tail.

"Now I shall explain the rules of flag holder!!" said Mato dancing around happily. "You see the object of this game is to keep and withhold what is rightfully yours from your opponent."

"Rightfully ours?" said Lyon. "I'm afraid I don't follow."

"You see this flag here?" said Mato as a huge purple flag suddenly appeared in one of his outstretched hands. "This flag has the ability to randomly teleport into one of the contestent's hands every time it is captured. When the flag teleports randomly to any of you....your job will be to keep the flag away from from all the other constestants for as long as you can. For every 5 minutes you can keep the flag in your possesion, you will recieve a point. If someone manages to take the flag from you, that person will recieve a point. If that flag is captured by another person, it will immediately teleport to another random player.....you never know who might get the flag next no matter who captures it!"

"So it's a game of random steal and keep away." said Rufus touching a hand to his wide brimmed hat. "I'll be sure to remember that one."

"Wait a second...." said Mikoto. "Does that mean that the moment we get the flag the rest of the contestants will be after us!?"

"Kabo! You are absolutely right!!" said Mato. "And the best part is....that this game is no holds barred, so you could probably also call it a Battle Royale event!! Kabo!! And by the way....after we reach the 15 minute mark, it gets rather.......interesting..."

"What do you mean...interesting?" asked Khufanos suspiciously.

"Oh, you'll see!" said Mato waving the flag around in a jitter of good cheer. "Anyways, the ones who have the most points at the end of the game will recieve 10 extra points. And if their is a tie, the total will be split evenly among the winning teams rounded down."

I wonder what this 'interesting' thing that's supposed to happen is.... Mikoto thought. Mikoto looked back to where Team Fairy Tail stood calling out her name and cheering. Mikoto could make out the rest of the guild in the stands also cheering wildly. Elli could be seen jumping up and down joyfully.

Suddenly the mood of the crowd seemed to change and Natsu and Gray started shouting something else......something that sounded like...."RUN!!!!"

"Eh?" Mikoto looked back to see that the flag had somehow mysteriously materialized into her hands "Wait......ME FIRST!!!!!?"

"She's got the flag!!!!!" Shouted Khufanos. "GET HER!!!"

"WIILLLDDD!!!!!!!" shouted Semmes.

"Crap...." said Mikoto as all the contestants leaped towards her at once.
