"THANK YOU FOR THAT INTERESTING MATCH, ELFMAN-SAN AND BOCCHUS-SAN! NOW, FOR A SHORT COMPETITION, ALL TEAMS WILL SEND OUT 1 PERSON TO PERFOM A SONG! THE BEST SONG SHALL GAIN 8 POINTS, SEEING AS THIS IS ONLY A SHORT INTERVAL COMPETITION! THE SONG EACH MEMBER SINGS CAN BE CHOSEN BY THEMSELVES! FIRST UP, SABERTOOTH!" The pumpkin announcer said. The teams were all a bit surprised, but the shock was shortly replaced by excitement.
"Hmmm? I guess I can do it, then... After all, I am a good singer in our guild." Minerva said.
"MINERVA OF SABERTOOTH, IT IS! PLEASE START WHEN READY, MINERVA-SAN!"
"Hmph. You didn't need to tell me that." Minerva said, as she walked out into the arena. The Audiences cheers for Sabertooth quieted, and waited for her to sing. Minerva smirked and began after a short pause.
"Back door cracked, we don't need a key
We get in for free, no V.I.P. sleaze,
Drink that Kool-Aid and follow my lead,
Now you're one of us, you're coming with me
It's time to kill the lights and shut the DJ down
This place's about to...
Tonight we're taking over, no one's getting out
Oh, this place about to blow-oh-oh-oh!
Blow-oh-oh-oh
Oh, this place about to blow-oh-oh-oh!
Blow-oh-oh-oh
Oh, this place about to blow-oh-oh-oh!
Blow-oh-oh-oh
Oh, this place about to blow-oh-oh-oh!
Blow-oh-oh-oh
This place about to...
Now what? What? We're taking control
We get what we want
We do what you don't
Dirt and glitter cover the floor
We're pretty and sick
We're young and we're bored
It's time to lose your mind and let the crazy out
This place about to...
Tonight we're taking names 'cause we don't mess around
Oh, this place about to blow-oh-oh-oh!
Blow-oh-oh-oh
Oh, this place about to blow-oh-oh-oh!
Blow-oh-oh-oh
Oh, this place about to blow-oh-oh-oh!
Blow-oh-oh-oh
Oh, this place about to blow-oh-oh-oh!
Blow-oh-oh-oh
Go, go, go, go insane, go insane
Throw some glitter, make it rain on 'em
Let me see them hands, let me, let me see them hands
Go insane, go insane
Throw some glitter, make it rain on 'em
Let me see them hands, let me, let me see them hands
We are taking over...
Get used to it ok...
Oh, this place about to blow-oh-oh-oh!
Blow-oh-oh-oh
Oh, this place about to blow-oh-oh-oh!
Blow-oh-oh-oh
Oh, this place about to blow-oh-oh-oh!
Blow-oh-oh-oh
Oh, this place about to blow-oh-oh-oh!
Blow-oh-oh-oh
This place about to blow..." Minerva finished. The entire time, she'd danced teasingly as she smirked while she sang. The audience cheered louder. The teams were surprised at the choice of her song, but it somewhat suited Sabertooth's personality.
"THAT WAS WELL DONE, MINERVA-SAN! NEXT UP, MERMAID HEEL!"
"I'll do it, nya! I wanna show that Mermaid Heel's got this in the bag!" Miliana purred loudly, as she stepped forward seductively.
"VERY WELL! MILIANA OF MERMAID HEEL IS NEXT! PLEASE START WHEN READY, MILIANA-SAN!"
Miliana grinned, and stepped into the arena with a sway to her hips. She then started to dance in a contemporary manner, and sang loudly with pride.
"Everyone has got a secret side
A winding path up to a door that's open wide
You think you know me but I'm changin' all the time
'Cause if I wanna be sweet
If I wanna be wild
If I wanna cry like a child
If I pick up the world in the palm of my hand
I guess that's just who I am
This is me
Can't ignore it
Reaching out
Breaking free
Constantly
Falling forward
Yeah, I'm just goin' for it
This is me
Sometimes life is a confusing thing
And when I talk it seems like no one's listening
Try to be an angel, but I just can't find my wings
'Cause I wanna be sweet
But I wanna be wild
If I wanna find my own style
So, I make a mistake, then I do it again
But I do it the best way that I can
This is me
Can't Ignore it
Reaching out
Breaking free
Constantly
Falling Forward
Yeah, I'm just goin' for it
This is me
More than what you see
Finding out who I can be
This is me
Can't Ignore it
Reaching out
Breaking free
Constantly
Falling Forward
Yeah, I'm just goin' for it
This is me...
...Can't Ignore it
Reaching out
Breaking free
Constantly
Falling Forward
Yeah, I'm just goin' for it
This is me...
...Can't Ignore it
Reaching out
Breaking free
Constantly
Falling Forward
Yeah, I'm just goin' for it
This is me "
"THAT WAS A GOOD PERFORMANCE, MILIANA-SAN! NEXT UP, FAIRY TAIL TEAM B!"
"Juvia shall accept this challenge. Juvia... has a point to prove." Juvia said, with a voice of sad determination.
"UHH... JUVIA OF FAIRY TAIL B, IT IS! PLEASE... IF YOU WILL, JUVIA-SAN!"
"Juvia? What is she doing..?" Gray muttered under his breath, as he saw the water mage enter the arena for her turn. She had a somewhat sad face on, making Gray concerned.
"Juvia, do your best!" Lyon shouted, blushing madly. Juvia flinched, and Gray noticed. He raised a brow in confusion. Shouldn't she be happy that... Lyon... is cheering for her? I mean, he lets it show, how much he's interested in her, that is... Unlike me... Gray thought, with a slight frown on his face. Juvia looked right at Gray, shocking him and Lyon deeply, as she began to sing with slight emotion in her voice.
"Boy you're so hard to believe...
Boy you're so hard to believe...
Just a friend
That's all I've ever been to you
Oh just a girl
Who wants to be the center of your world
But I ain't got much to offer
But my heart and soul
And I guess that's not enough
For you to notice me
I'm just a girl
And I guess that's all I'll ever be to you
To you
I try to smile when I see other girls with you
Acting like everything is ok
But ohh
You don't know how it feels to be so in love
With someone who doesn't even know
My secret love
In my dreams
I see us both together constantly
Why can't you see
This love that's here for you inside of me
Ohhh
What do I have to do
For you to notice this
You look at her with love
With me it's just friendship
I'm just your girl
And I guess that's all I'll ever be to you
To you
I try to smile when I see other girls with you
Acting like everything is ok
But ohh
you don't know how it feels to be so in love
With someone who doesn't even know
My secret love
What do you see in her
You don't see in me, don't see in me
Boy you're so hard to believe
Why do you show her love
But there's none for me
Boy you don't make sense to me
Cause I don't have much to offer
But my heart and soul
And I guess that's not enough
For you to notice me
I'm just your girl
And I guess that's all I'll ever be to you
To you
I try to smile when I see other girls with you
Acting like everything is ok, everything ain't ok
But ohh
you don't know how it feels to be so in love, so in love with you baby
With someone who doesn't even know
My secret love
Boy you're so hard to believe ..." Juvia finished, shedding a single tear, before bowing to the audience and ran off the arena, letting her tears flow more freely. Half of the crowd was in tears, including Fairy Tail. Lucy was balling her eyes out, as if she knew Juvia's pain. Lyon just glared harshly at Gray, who in turn was looking remorseful, as he then ran off to go find Juvia.
"THAT WAS VERY TOUCHING, JUVIA-SAN!" The pumpkin announcer said, with a slightly shaky voice. "ANYWAY, NEXT UP IS LAMIA SCALE!"
"I'll-" Lyon started, but was interrupted by Shellia.
"I will sing. This will be my chance to bring our team some points!" Shellia said, determinedly, as she ran out onto the arena, leaving behind a dumbfounded Lyon.
"SHELLIA OF LAMIA SCALE! PLEASE START WHEN READY!"
Shellia took a deep breath, and she sang with a happy voice, as she waved her arms, and jumped around, in motions that made it as if she were trying to fly.
"Can't you see?
There's a feeling that's come over me
Close my eyes
You're the only one that leaves me completely breathless
No need to wonder why
Sometimes a gift like this you can't deny
'Cause I wanted to fly,
so you gave me your wings
And time held its breath so I could see, yeah
And you set me free
There's a will
There's a way
Sometimes words just can't explain
This is real
I'm afraid
I guess this time there's just no hiding, fighting
You make me restless
You're in my heart
The only light that shines
there in the dark
'Cause I wanted to fly,
so you gave me your wings
And time held its breath so I could see, yeah
And you set me free
When I was alone
You came around
When I was down
You pulled me through
And there's nothing that
I wouldn't do for you
'Cause I wanted to fly,
so you gave me your wings
And time held its breath so I could see, yeah
And you set me free." Shellia finished, bowing like she was on a stage. Lyon only have listened, however, because he was still staring/glaring after Gray. That was, before he saw Gray come back, blushing, with Juvia. Holding hands. And Juvia was blushing, too. Lyon suddenly felt extremely jealous, even though he couldn't help but think 'It's about damn time, Gray. Juvia-san had suffered enough already.'
"THAT WAS RATHER CHEERFUL, SHELLIA-SAN! NOW, BLUE PEGASUS!"
"Jenny." Eve, Ren, Hibiki & Ichiya said in unison. Jenny just blushed slightly and giggled as she started walking to the arena.
"Well, it seems as if my team has spoken for me. If they insist, then I shall sing. For my team!" Jenny cheered, smiling a poster-girl smile. Jenny mainly stood in one spot for most of the time, but occaisionally moved her arms around.
"Let me hear you say 'hey hey hey'
Alright
Now let me hear you say' hey hey ho'
I hate it when a guy doesn't get the door
even though I told him yesterday and the day before
I hate it when a guy doesn't get the tab
And I have to pull my money out and that looks bad
Where are the hopes, where are the dreams
My Cinderella story scene
When do you think they'll finally see
That you're not not not gonna get any better
You won't won't won't you won't get rid of me never
Like it or not, even though she's a lot like me
We're not the same
And yeah yeah yeah I'm a lot to handle
You don't know trouble, I'm a hell of a scandal
Me, I'm a scene, I'm a drama queen
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
Alright, alright
Yeah
I hate it when a guy doesn't understand
Why a certain time of month I don't wanna hold his hand
I hate it when they go out, and we stay in
And they come home smelling like their ex girlfriends
I found my hopes, I found my dreams
My Cinderella story scene
Now everybody's gonna see
That you're not not not gonna get any better
You won't won't won't you won't get rid of me never
Like it or not, even though she's a lot like me
We're not the same
And yeah yeah yeah I'm a lot to handle
You don't know trouble, I'm a hell of a scandal
Me, I'm a scene, I'm a drama queen
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
Give me a J (always give me what I want)
Give me an E (be very very good to me)
N (are you gonna treat me right)
N (I can put up a fight)
Give me a Y (let me hear you scream loud)
One, two, three, four
Where are the hopes, where are the dreams
My Cinderella story scene
When do you think they'll finally see
That you're not not not gonna get any better
You won't won't won't you won't get rid of me never
Like it or not, even though she's a lot like me
We're not the same
And yeah yeah yeah I'm a lot to handle
You don't know trouble, I'm a hell of a scandal
Me, I'm a scene, I'm a drama queen
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen
Let me hear you say hey hey hey
Alright
Now let me hear you say hey hey ho
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen..."
"THAT WAS A VERY FITTINGSONG, JENNY! WELL DONE! AND NOW, FOR QUATRO PUPPY!"
"I'll get this one... After all, I think I'm one of the very few decent-sounding guys here..." Bacchus said, sighing as he trudged onto the arena floor, dragging his feet.
"BACCHUS FROM QUATRO PUPPY! START WHEN YOU'RE READY, BACCHUS-KUN!"
Bacchus stopped for a moment, and thought deeply. Suddenly, he smirked and started singing cockily.
"I spent my life thinking bout myself
I wouldn't change it for no one else.
I don't like talking when I watch L.V.
I like to drink as much as I want.
There must be something in the free champagne
It's not my party but I'm glad I came.
I saw you looking, I was looking back,
Something happened to me.
I want you right now,
I want you right now,
Gotta be right now,
I want you right now,
Give me a chance!
I could be fearless,
I could be strong,
I could be wiser, braver,
I could be mean if that's what you want.
I'll be a fighter,
Taking the crown,
Gonna be louder, shameless, reckless,
If that's what you want.
If you could find a way to read my mind,
You'd see 10,000 soldiers standing in line.
With flowers on their swords pointing straight at you,
Cause Cupid's too stupid for war.
I want you right now,
I want you right now,
Gotta be right now,
I want you right now,
Give me a chance!
I could be fearless,
I could be strong,
I could be wiser, braver,
I could be mean if that's what you want.
I'll be a fighter,
Taking the crown,
Gonna be louder, shameless, reckless,
If that's what you want.
I want you right now,
I want you right now,
Gotta be right now,
I want you right now,
I want you right now,
I want you right now,
I want you right now,
Gotta be right now,
I want you right now,
I want you right now,
I want you right now,
I want you right now,
Gotta be right now,
I want you right now,
Give me a chance!
I could be fearless,
I could be strong,
I could be wiser, braver,
I could be mean if that's what you want.
I'll be a fighter,
Taking the crown,
Gonna be louder, shameless, reckless,
If that's what you want.
Fearless,
I could be fearless baby,
I could be strong,
I could be brave,
I'll be a fighter taking the crown,
Gonna be louder, shameless, reckless,
If that's what you want!" Bacchus finished his song, smirking self-confidently.
"TH-THAT WAS... INTERESTING, BACCHUS-KUN! ANYWAY, MOVING ONTO THE LAST TEAM! FAIRY TAIL A!"
"I think I should do it..." Erza said, but Natsu and Lucy opposed.
"E-Erza, you have stage-fright, remember? You'd be singing in front of an entire collesium filled with people!" Lucy said. Natsu nodded his head in agreement.
"Yeah, you'd just freeze and then go rattling on about random stuff." Natsu added. Lucy sighed, knowing that was true. Erza then sweat-dropped.
"Oh, y-yeah... Well then, since I can't do it, you do it, Lucy." Erza smirked.
"E-EH?!" Natsu and Lucy stuttered out.
"M-me? B-but I can't sing! I'm horrible at it!" Lucy said.
"Nonsense. I've heard you sing in the showers at Fairy Hills, Lucy. You have a gift." Erza said with a smile. Lucy blushed and shook her head in denial.
"What?! You can sing?! Why didn't you tell me?!" Natsu complained. "I agree with Erza now, you go and sing!" Natsu grinned, pushing her out onto the arena floor.
"B-but! Oh, fine..." Lucy grumbled, before dragging her feet as she went into view on the arena floor.
"LUCY OF FAIRY TAIL A! PLEASE START WHEN YOU ARE READY TO PROCEED!"
"O-ok... Um, would it be fine if I sang something I came up with myself?" Lucy asked. This caught the audience's, and Fairy Tail's, attention.
"... YES, THAT IS POSSIBLE! CONTINUE!"
"Thanks... It's just because I can't think of anything else to sing... Anyway, here I go..." Lucy cringed. She took a deep breath, and shocked everyone with her voice. She just held her hands over her heart the entire time, as she shyly looked into the audience, with a small smile on her face.
She sounds like an Angel... Natsu thought, blushing. Erza just smirked in triumph.
"There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
It's a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
Oh
Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time
You'll find the way
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
That a hero lies in you...
That a hero lies in you..." Lucy finished, with closed eyes, and her arms slightly spread out by her sides and a tiny blush across her face.
When Lucy opened her eyes, she saw that the audience was stunned for a minute, before cheering loudly, with half of the stadium even crying. Fairy Tail was still mesmerized, with tears going down their faces, as they clapped for her. Lucy just blushed deeper, before smiling at the ground, and turning to walk off the arena. When she got up to where her team-mates were, they tackled her into a group-hug.
"That was beautiful, Lucy!" some cheered, while others just cried and nodded in agreement. Lucy blushed again. After a few moments, the team turned back to check out the results. Except Natsu, that is.
Natsu walked right up to Lucy, crying, and hugged her. "That was... indescribable, Luce... You've got the voice of an angel..." Natsu said, blushing. Lucy just turned a deeper red and had a shocked expression on her face. "You were amazing..." he continued.
Gajeel, being the nosy guy he is, turned back to look at the scene, before going slightly red in the face. Levy noticed and followed his gaze, before going completely red in the face. The same thing happened to Erza, Jellal, Gray, Juvia, Romeo & Wendy.
"N-Natsu..." Lucy stuttered, feeling shy and unaware of the others watching closely.
Natsu pulled back, and Lucy saw he was blushing slightly, which in turn made her go another shade darker. "Luce, do you mind if I tell you something... private?" Natsu said, almost reluctantly as his blush got deeper, before hiding his face in his muffler. Luce just nodded, still dazed that he was blushing. The others' eyes just bulged.
I-is he gonna..?! They all thought in-sync. They all had the thought that Natsu was going to confess to Lucy.
He didn'texactly... disappoint them... Although, funnily enough, it didn't go the way he 'planned' it to.
"I... Luce, I..." he started, hesitantly. Lucy noticed he was somewhat still undecided about telling her what he wanted to say. Lucy's eyes just softened.
"Natsu... We're best friends, you can tell me anything... If it's too hard to tell me now, you can always just do it later, when you're ready." Lucy said. Not realizing that she just 'friend-zoned him', and just figuratively stabbed his heart with an arrow, saying 'Best Friends' on it, leaving him with a dumbfounded expression on his face, as she turned to walk around him.
The others all just looked at Natsu with sympathetic looks. They all thought only one word.
Ouch.
Natsu snapped out if right as she passed him, and turned around just in time to catch her wrist. Lucy stopped in her spot, blushed, and turned around to face Natsu, who had a red face, and looked as if he were slightly wounded, even though he wasn't physically hurt.
"L-Luce.." He whispered, loud enough for the others to just barely hear. Lucy just blinked, that being the only thing she could do, before Natsu took a big step forward, leaving her little-to-no room for her escape, and, using his other hand, lifted her face up to meet his, as he bent down to kiss her.
The others just pretty much had their heads fried, as they blushed deeply at Natsu's public display of affection. Lucy just blushed deeper, before her syes slid shut and kissed him back.
"Lucy..." Breathed Natsu, as he seperated his lips from hers. Lucy just slowly opened her eyes, with a dazed look on her blushing face. "Luce, I... I love you." He said, bringing her in for a tight embrace. He put his face in her hair and took a deep breath, his face going a further red. Lucy's, however, was more darker than Natsu's. Her eyes were wide, but after a moment, they softened again and she brought her arms up to return Natsu's embrace.
"I... Love you, too... Natsu..." she said into his chest. Natsu then smiled brightly. and pulled back.
"Really? You love me, too?" He repeated, for confirmation that he wasn't hearing things. Lucy just gave him a loving smile, and nodded, as she brought him in for a kiss. Natsu immediately returned her kiss, eagerly.
C-congratulations... You two... The others all thought, stunned at the turn of events.
When Lucy and Natsu seperated, they both grinned and held each other close for a moment, before Natsu spoke again.
"Luce, will you be my mate? Dragons only ever find one true lover in their entire lives, and they are called 'mates'... And Luce, I'm very sure that you're mine... Will you agree to be mine?" Natsu asked. Lucy blushed deeply again and nodded her head. They kissed once more, sealing the deal, before they knew they had to seperate. After, they took each others hand and went to see the results.
"DUE TO THE JUDGES' VOTE... THE WINNER IS... LUCY HEARTFILIA, OF FAIRY TAIL TEAM A!" The pumpkin announcer said, cheering slightly. The audience cheered loudly as well, and Fairy Tail congratulated Lucy one more time, before the games moved on.
From then on, Natsu and Lucy could rarely be seen apart, and were constantly holding hands and stealing kisses. They stayed in love for the rest of their days, and even got married and had kids in the future. They were forever known as 'Fairy Tail's Beauty and the Beast'.
