As both Opponents made their way into the battlefield, Everybody looked nervously at the 'special' event that was going to happen during the elimination round.
"And the battle is! Speed Test!" Makarov announced.

"Yes! Rogue is the fastest person ever!" Sting exclaimed.
"Fro thinks so too!" Frosch agreed.
"Rogue can turn into a shadow." Lector pointed out.

"Achoo!" Racer sneezed.
"Whats wrong, Sawyer?" Sorano asked.
"Nothing. Sounds like somebody was mocking me."
I heard 'em, they probably forgot about you. Cobra thought.

"The first person to make it to the finish line wins!"
The end was just straight across.

"Animal Soul: Snake!" Lisanna transforms into a Snake as being Lightweight would not drain mich energy.

"Go!"

"See you on the other side." Rogue told Lisanna as he turned into a shadow, and as quick as lightning, he arrived at the finish line before Lisanna could.
"Rogue wins!"
Lisanna was saddened but decided to congratulate Rogue before joining her friends.

"Good job Rogue!" Sting congratulated him.
"You did good, yes" Lector said after.
"Fro thinks so, too!" Frosch agreed.

"The last match of today, would be a three-way battle! As there had been a draw on the first day!" Makarov suddenly announced. Everybody was nervous to see who was going to be inside the battle.
"And since it is already not a 1 versus one, the three way battle is already considered the special event"
"In this battle, The person in first place automtically goes up, the second and third is pretty obvious."
"Freed Versus Jellal Versus Lyon!"

"Hehe." Freed said to himself as he thought of a plan.
"You have a plan?" Laxus asked.
Freed nodded rather eagerly and he made his way to the battlefield.

"Will Jellal be okay?" Meredy asked Cobra.
"He probably will. He is up against some rune and ice dude." Cobra replied.
"That green-haired guy looks cunning though." Midnight pointed out.
"What? Since when did you wa-" Racer started to speak.
"Zzzzz" Midnight continued his sleep.
"That is so like him, talking one moment, sleeping another" angel said with an annoyed look.

"Lyon you better not get third or i will spin you!" Ooba Babasaama threatened.
"I will be fine." Lyon reassured. "Though those are quite formidable enemies."
"You will be fine! You better be!" Toby shouted rather angrily.
"Dont get ticked off" Yuka told him.

"Go!"

"Meteor!" Jellal announced. His whole body turned into a bright light, going around the arena at incredible speeds towards Freed.
However, Freed decided to try and dodge but realised that Jellal was gaining in on him.
"Hey! Don't forget about me! Ice make: Eagle!" Lyon shouted as only using one hand, was able to create many miniature flying eagles that were flying towards both Jellal and Freed.
Jellal decided to land a few blows to Freed before charging towards Lyon.

Freed was hit away from the fight, but not enough for him to lose. As quick as possible, he tried to prolong the fght between Lyon and Jellal by not interfering them. Quickly, he drew some strange symbols that nobody saw.

"So that is his plan? Dodging and getting 2nd or 1st place?" Bickslow asked.
"No, i do not think it is that simple." Laxus pointed out.

"Ice make- Ahh!" Lyon shouted as Jellal landed a big blow on him before lyon could finish his spell.

Lyon fell to the floor, and was knocked out cold.

"Dang you independant guild! I will spin you Lyon!" Lamia Scale Master shouted angrily.

Freed looked as the fight finished and he looked pretty happy."There!" Jellal took one look at him and started chargin toward him in his 'white beam of light'
"Dark Eriture : Pain!" Freed said as he shot out runes of some sort toward Jellal. However, Jellal only smirked and with a quick wave of his hands, the runes did not any effect on Jellal.
"What?" Freed was shocked.

~Flashback~

"I studied the background of some people who are in the tournament, and i found that green hair dude have some
Interesting magic." Meredy told Jellal when she came back from investigating.
"What magic is it?" Jellal asked.
"Rune Magic." She replied.
"Thanks i will study it and try to counter it."

Taking advantage of Freed's shock, Jellal raced towards him.
"What???" Jellal hit some sort of invisible wall.
"Sorry, but that was a quick rune i made, during the match, i used your fight with Lyon, to create a massive shield.

"What?!" Bickslow and Evergreen exclaimed. They knew Freed was strong, but how was he able to one, create a huge shield while still being able to move and talk normally and two, create such an offensive rune in such a short time.

Freed yelled "dark eriture: Wings!" As a pair of wings was etched into Freed, he flew just at the line where the exit and entrance was close, and started hitting Jellal. This time, it was Jellal's turn to dodge. As he look at the runes on the floor he found a word he could rewrite.
If i can just get there.. Jellal thought.
He estimated the time Freed would be in the box before he goes outside to prepare an attack.
3 Seconds
Just as Freed entered the runes, Jellal immediately punched him enough to make him fly backwards, but not enough for him to be unconscious.
He quickly went to the rune he could recognised and started rewriting
Anyone can exit and enter the rune
He finished rewriting and was able to exit.
"H-how??" Freed went into another shock. That shield was his best magic, and Jellal, who hardly ever saw him, knew how to rewrite it.
As Freed was in a state of shock, Jellal once again shouted "Meteor!" And Went towards Freed really fast. He punched Freed and was able to finally knock him out.
"Freed and Lyon is down! Jellal wins!" Makarov announced. Everybody cheered for him.

"I knew it was a good idea to tell him about his rune magic" Meredy said.

"That Jellal is a formidable opponent." Laxus told Bickslow. Bickslow agreed.
Jellal returned them Freed before rushing off back to his friends.
The Oracion Seis and Meredy congratulated him as Makarov concluded the elimination round.
"You have 2 days of rest before we continue the tournament that have 16 people left!" Makarov concluded and left the Commentators room.
"Well, Freed did try his best.." Natsu started talkin on the way to the bar.
"Yeah. But Jellal is quite strong." Wendy said.
"Lyon did not stand a chance!" Gray said with a small laugh.
They started talking about the upcoming battles on their way to the bar.
