—Recap— 

Sting landed on his feet and looked at her smugly, "You're not done, right?" He leered playfully at her.

"Of course not," she groaned, slowly getting back up.

"Just getting started actually," she forced herself to grin, but it came out more like a grimace and his brows furrowed at her expression.

"Well, since we're going all out..." Sorella's right arm outstretched up into the air and she closed her eyes to focus channeling her magic.

"Piercing Stars among the Heavens!" The sky turned dark above them and Sting immediately became alert.

"I call upon thee! Radiant showers of the Celestial night!" She continued to chant. "Rain down so that I can borrow your power to extinguish the threat of evil!" Sorella brought her arm down till it stopped in front of her and as the sky started to open up, stars started to glimmer and a meteor shower rained down upon them.

Everyone's eyes widened as they looked up to the sky and then they turned to watch Sting who was knocked out by the impact.

Sorella fell onto her knees in exhaustion.

—3 Months later, Flashback—

"It sure takes you back, doesn't it?" The blonde said out of the blue, earning the attention of his two companions.

"Last time we saw them, he came up to about here on Gajeel," Sting added for context, using his hand to gesture the height of someone Sorella had no clue who he was referring to.

The three of them were out on on a job. They were hired to take out a dark guild full of skilled archers, and currently; those wizards from the Elmore Shadow guild were all dead or unconscious as their bodies laid outside in the rubble of what was once their guildhall.

Sorella blew bangs out of her face as she spun a dagger between her fingers that she caught mid air when one of the wizards threw it at her. She was leaning against the base of a boulder that Sting was sat on and she was sitting in between his legs.

Sorella sighed.

The fight was over as soon as it had begun, they ambushed their small army before the members in the guild could even react.

The Magic Council was worried about Elmore Shadow's sudden increase of population, and there were rumours that they had planned to set a local village ablaze.

So therefore, the Magic Council requested members of Sabertooth to look into it, so Sorella and the Twin Dragons of Saber had gone to take up the job.

After Rogue shadow travelled into the guild, he had confirmed the Council's suspicions. There were plans strewn across a long wooden table and a large map pinned on a cork board. All the wizards were about to rally, so they ambushed them outside their front door.

As they waited for the Council's army to appear so they could take over the situation from there, they had some time to kill.

It was only recent that rumours of Fairy Tail's main forces returning to Fiore had reached their guild, so Sting started to bring up the nostalgia he and Rogue both apparently shared.
