"Where the hell is Wendy?!" Gray exclaimed while looking at the time, he was tapping his foot furiously with his arms crossed.

"Calm down, Lisanna and Elfman already looked for her." Said Erza as she sat at the bed wit her new armor.

"But what if something happened to her!?" Gray retorted, though he immediately calmed down when he saw Erza's look.

"Tch, pipsqueak ain't so weak ya'know. She survived salamander's training, believe in her. She'll come.... Oh? I can already smell her," said Gajeel.

"Urgh~" Lucy groans, the 'training' she experienced still fresh in her mind. That might not be something she will ever forget even in her next life.

Then, the door opens and Wendy quickly walks in, just in time for the bell to ring, signifying the start of the games.

"Wendy!"

"Good! You made it!"

"Where have you been?! You made us worried!"

Wendy panted, "I'm fine guys... Really, right now we need to focus to the games."

-----------------------------

Natsu was currently in the palace's clinic, Happy was sleeping on the bed with Carla sitting beside him. Natsu smiled, if Happy were awake who knew what he will do.

Natsu glanced at the large 'thing' floating at the center of the city, this is the first time they used this in the games, he was one of the mages who helped built that place.

"Worried?"

He took his eyes off the city and glanced at his lover, looking at him with a gentle smile.

He smiled and replied, "A little, though I'm sure they'll wing it. They are Fairy Tail members after all."

Hisui giggled before sitting beside him and held his hand, "I called Ultear and Kagura, they will be here soon. I also called Fiana, she's finally returning from her mission, though from her voice, she seems worried, and serious."

"Kagura? Isn't she supposed to be with the others? You know? For team B?"

"Yes, but she decided to gave her position to Meredy, she said that she just wanted to relax this year."

Natsu hummed, that's understandable, Kagura has been fighting since 6 years ago, then his thoughts wandered to Fian, there are only a rare times where Fiana will sound serious. Like the time where God Serena declared his allegiance to the Alvarez, and the time where they were at war with the Smiling Repear.

'She probably found out something during her mission, and whatever it is, couldn't be good.'

"Ah-hem!"

Natsu snapped out of his thoughts and glanced at the female exceed beside Happy, who faked coughed with a light blush on her cheeks.

"What is it, Carla?" He asks, ignoring her embarrassment, while he just smiles.

"I-I ne-never thought that yo-you have that kind of relationship with the princess, I thought for sure that you are with Kagura or Ultear."

Natsu hummed before nodding his head, "And who says I'm not?" He smirked, seeing the face she was having.

"Wha-?! Bu-Bu-But- how about the princess!? You said you were together?!" She cried out, she really doesn't understand what's going on with their relationship, 'Is he perhaps, two-timing? No, three-timing? But then that saint is also quite close to him, so perhaps four?'

"I never said that Hisui and I aren't together." Natsu replied, while Hisui just smiled beside him, Natsu sometimes likes to mess with people, he does this to relieve some stress from work or if something is bothering him.

Though she and the others were very willing to help him, then she remembered something and blushed, though no one noticed this.

"Wha-? How? Just what is happening?" Carla asked, her head aches thinking of their complicated relationship.

Suddenly, the door opens and a female voice answered Carla's question. "It isn't that complicated, it means all of us, are together with him."

Carla was startled, she turned her head and stared at the door, as Ultear and Kagura walks in.

Kagura quickly sat beside Natsu while glaring at Ultear, said girl just giggled and sat beside Carla.

"But...how? Isn't polygamous relationship being looked down by people? I mean even nobles don't usually practice such thing." Said Carla, even though polygamy is allowed, people aren't really fond of it.

"Well, its either this or we'll find someone else." Kagura replied. She still remembered the fight the four of them had, Hisui almost died for casting Gottfried without any help.

How mad Natsu has been for what the four of them did, not to mention they completely flattened several mountains and burned forests during their fight.

"So...you just accepted it?"

"Yes." The three girls replied at the same time, causing Natsu to chuckle.

Suddenly, Ultear remembered something as her face quickly turned serious. She turned towards Natsu, who noticed her look and nodded.

He stood up along with Ultear, "We'll talk for a bit, wait for us here."

The two went out of the room, Kagura already knew of this as Ultear told her earlier. Hisui glanced at Kagura, wanting to know what's happening.

Kagura just replied with "Later."

-----------------------

At Palace's garden, at the kiosk in the middle of the pond, Natsu was looking at the reflection of the moon, Ultear was standing beside him, holding his hand. How they get here? No need to ask.

"So, did Fiana told you some things she found on her mission?" Natsu asked. He was really worried, his gut was sending warning bells that something will happen, and it won't be good.

Ultear nodded, "Remember Tartaros?" Hearing those words, Natsu's magic power flared up, but he quickly suppressed it.

"What about them."

Ultear sighed and gripped his hand tightly, "Have you heard of Endless Abyss?"

"Yeah, Its my job as a saint to know all Dark Guilds that can pose a threat to us. From what I know, they are the strongest dark guild in the entire continent, having tens, perhaps even hundreds of thousands of members, they aee form Pergrande Kingdom right?"

"Right."

"But what's their connection to Tartar-....Don't tell me." Natsu's eyes widened as he stared at Ultear, who nodded her head.

"Endless Abyss, Tartaros, and many other dark guild formed an alliance, they have thousands of S-class mages, at least 50 saint class mages, 33 genuine saint, and the leader of the alliance is still unknown, no one knows how strong is he or if there are other stronger."

Natsu clenched his fist, his eyes narrowed as he stared at the night sky. This is bad, Endless Abyss alone is already pain in the ȧss, but with them forming an alliance with other dark guilds....

'Just...what are they planning? What is it that they want that they will even form an alliance?'

No matter how hard he thinks, he couldn't find an answer.
