Chapter 44

Going to the GMG this chapter! I wonder what's going to happen...

Thanks DesolationDeath for continuously helping me out with the story!

I apologize for any grammar errors that I have made~

At the guild, Fair Tail, three months later~

Lucy's P.O.V

These last three months I and Acnologia had been practicing staying in our Human forms for longer time. We'd been told by Makarov, when he came by during our training, that we'd be staying at small inn, where it by no means would be possible to be in our Dragon forms. And besides that, with all the events in those days, it wasn't certain that we would be able to transform once a day, maybe it would only be once every two days. Or less even. So, we'd made sure we would be able to stand it when the time came.

Other than keeping our Human forms up for as long as possible, which for me was three days and nights and for Acnologia two days and nights, we also trained just like the others. I think.

Basically, we were sparring against each other, using magic, since I could heal all the injuries we got. Although, that never turned out necessary, only few times when I had called out a Spirit and he or she took it more seriously and injured Acnologia. That was - funnily enough - mostly either Loke or Fenix. And Daemon a few times, but they tended not to be so bad because they had the same element. There was some kind of half immunity to - especially - Chaos magic for him.

Although, even if we did that every day, I doubt we got as much out of it as we could. In the end, the sparring-sessions may have changed to be make out-sessions sessions instead. Heated ones sometimes too. At that point, if I had had any out, the Spirits would return to the Spirit Word. Except Aquarius that one time, she poured a half ocean over us in irritation, then left.

Now though, we were at the guild and were all about to go to the capital, Crocus, where the GMG would be held. And the place where they held Kurama, Acnologia's father. We'd already decided we would get him out during the Games, with the commotion as a distraction. Maybe at the end of the last day, where everyone were celebrating. We'd figured they wouldn't let him out easily if they had kept him there all this time. Although we had decided to visit him one day before the rescue, to see if he was okay. We hadn't been able to plan much more, because we had absolutely no idea how the Games progressed and what would happen.

But we would worry about all that when we were there and knew a bit more about how things were going to be. Right now, we were getting the last information from Master, although they were mainly directed at the two teams, only one of them known to the guild.

Makarov stood on the counter of the bar, as always, and looked around at all of us. "Brats, we're going to regain our spot as the strongest guild in Fiore." He told us all. "And price money worth 30.000.000 Jewels." He added with a grin.

That reminded me, back when we were done with the meeting three months ago, Master asked the three males and Mira to accompany him to the Twilight Ogre guild hall, where they would have a 'talk' with the Guild Master. Basically, he threatened them and said that they would feel the wrath of Fairy Tail if they ever crossed our paths again and apparently Acnologia had made a big impression on them with his 'heavy' magical pressure and 'intimidating' appearance. I didn't see what they were talking about, but I guess it came in handy this time.

He looked at all of us again, reverting back to a more serious expression. "Now, our biggest competition, and the guild currently in the lead, is Sabertooth. They're said to have quite some strong mages, but I don't know much about them." He told us. In other words, he was too late to find out. Then, his face broke into a wide grin. "But, even if we don't win, let's all have a good time and make new bonds with new people." He told us with his usual cheery attitude. Everyone agreed with him with all kinds of cheers. "NOW LET'S WIN THIS!" He yelled loudly and sent the crowd into another round of cheers. "To the train station!" He added and - once again - the crowd cheered. Or at least the bigger part of it. A few moans and grunts were heard. My own mate included.
