Chapter 21. All Thanks To You

Part B of the games were about to start and they were each told to pick one person in their team to go up in the activity. "We still need someone!" Natsu panicked. He slammed his face against the stone cold wall.

"Why can't Wendy do it?" Gray asked him. 

"Because she's too young," Erza muttered. Lucy looked out the arch and tapped Erza on the shoulder and pointed outside. 

"I guess she already left," Lucy laughed. Natsu scowled as he watched his little sister go out. 

"Okay! The task is horseback riding! The last one standing gets the most points!"

The little pumpkin man let out 8 horses and Wendy chose the first one she saw. She jumped on and got ready. "You know the drill! Ready, set, go!"

Wendy pulled on the reigns and the horse forwards. Oga was still trying to get used to how to use a horse. Wendy felt glad for once that she was royal, she learned how to use a horse at a young age, making her an expert. She looked to her right and could see Beth charging towards Oga.

Wendy sighed and headed towards Toby. She remembered working with him and it was easy to take care of him. He stood in front of him and a member of Quadro Cerberus. "Sky Dragon Roar!"

The gust of wind easily pushed Toby to the ground and the member of the Dog's to go down. She dashed forwards with her horse and grabbed the white tags. She watched as Juvia took one from Flare.

Eve was trying to turn left but the horse had other ideas. The horse charges towards Wendy. Wendy used her magic to make her horse light on its feet. She moved to the left, kicked the horse's side, and pushed Eve off.

She knew her hand-to-hand combat wasn't very good, but, it did the trick. She trotted towards him and grabbed the tag. Eve almost got her when the temperature around her dropped. It was enough to make her hands go numb. She quickly grabbed it before it could and ran away from the cold. 

"She's scared of the cold?" Lucy asked natsu.

"Yeah, very, she's allergic, hope she can get out of it, it's following her," Natsu watched as the cold air blew towards his little sister.

"He must have knew to do such an underhanded trick," Erza said in disgust.

"Yeah, but, she's smart. Even if she doesn't get out of this, the game would have stopped for her," Gray said.

Wendy started to itch her skin and her elbow. She put the tags between her teeth and held onto the reign tighter. 

There was only 10 minuted left. 

Juvia had went down and was still trying to get her tags back. Wendy looked back at her arm and noticed her creamy skin had went red. She looked back and saw Eve trying to catch up with her.

"Hibiki must have told him..." Lucy muttered. Natsu ignored her comment and gripped onto Lucy.

Wendy let out a shriek as her first burn came from the cold. 

Two minutes.

Wendy started to shriek even louder. She fell onto the floor and clutched onto her stomach. Her feet had a burning sensation that travelled upwards and washed over with a burn. Her heart started to race and the arena started to spin.

She could feel her tongue start to swell.

"Time up! Someone get her to the Fairy Tail Hospitality Room!" The judge yelled. Natsu dashed over and grabbed Wendy by the shoulder. He looked over at Eve and scowled before turning back to his sister.

He carried her on his back and walked back into the arch. He lay her on the nearest bed and waited for Porlyusica to come.


Natsu came out of the snack bar and had kids food in his arms. Lucy had helped with toys and was watching Natsu carry all of it. "She's that allergic? We're lucky Porlyusica gave her that medicine, when did it start?" Lucy asked him.

"When she was young, as in baby young. The doctor had to give her special care since she was born in December on Christmas," Natsu whispered. "Who was this Hibiki you were talking about?" Natsu suddenly asked.

"Him, over there," Natsu looked at the orange haired boy, "He's my friend, taught me how to control my magic. He gave me a few spells and would help me train every now and again when he could. He's in Blue Pegasus, so he had to travel a long way to Crocus," Lucy said.

"Friend, huh? If so, why would he tell Eve about something like that," Natsu interrogated her. Lucy pouted, she felt like a suspect in a movie.

"She's a Princess, no one would have known how severe it would have been. He probably thought it was just average, or common symptoms..." Lucy said.

"Sure," Natsu said.

The leader boards had come up.

1st place - F A I R Y   T A I L   B   14  

2nd Place - F A I R Y   T A I L   A   8

3rd Place - R A V E N  T A I L   6 

4th Place - B L U E   P E G A S U S   4

5th Place - L A M I A   S C A L E   2

6th Place -  S A B E R T O O T H   1

Natsu smirked at the memory of Fairy Tail in the top two! Sabertooth had begun with a rough start and Natsu laid down everything on the ground for Wendy. Lucy sighed as she put the toys and magazines on the table.


Wendy slowly woke up and rubbed her eyes. The first thing she could see was Porlyusica mixing herbs together. Wendy had always wanted to be a doctor like her, but, her mom always told her it was for people below. Wendy sighed as she waved a hello to the woman.

She didn't make any great reponse but a smile twitched onto her face. She gave Wendy a bowl with green syrup in it. "I have to drink it?" Wendy asked nervously. 

Nothing.

Wendy gulped before bringing the bowl to her mouth.

"You're winning, all thanks to you,"
