3rd POV

"Hello, Sting."

"M'lady," Sting bowed his head.

"I hear that you went on date with that Wizard Saint?"

How did she know..? He nodded his head.

"I'm happy for you. However, after yesterday's losses, I can't have any of my teammates being distracted. I need you to get your head in the game, Sting. Focus on the games, and when we win, you can affiliate yourself with Fernandes to your heart's desire. Just not in the games, otherwise... I'll have have to go to extreme measures. Understood?"

Sting's eyes widened and his breath hitched in his throat. A cold sweat dripped down his face as he muttered, "Yes, m'lady."

"Good."

Sting thought about what she said. This was going to be hard, and while (F/n) could probably take Minerva, he didn't want to take any chances of losing her again.

'I'm sorry, (F/n)...'

2nd POV

"Hey, (F/n)," Erza walked up to you. You two were currently in a coffee shop. You came here every morning for your dose of caffeine. It was fairly early, since you had to arrive sooner because you were an announcer.

"Hey Erza, what are you doing here?" You questioned as she sat in front of you.

"I needed to inform you of what went on last night."

"What went on?" You raised your eyebrow.

"Natsu, Lucy, Wendy, Happy, and Carla all ran into Yukino. Apparently she was forced to strip and remove her own guild mark in front of her guild mates."

"Oh god..." you put a hand to your mouth.

"Natsu stormed in and wrecked the place, but was put to a stop by Yukino's replacement, Minerva, who is also said to be the strongest Sabertooth member, and the guild master's daughter. She will be participating from here on out. And also... about what Milliana told me last night... you're not gonna like it..."

"What did she say?"

"She despises Jellal now. And her guild mate, Kagura, who is also the strongest member in Mermaid Heel, holds a huge grudge against your brother. She will never unsheathe her sword unless it's against Jellal, because she plans on killing him some day."

You clenched your jaw but nodded your head.

"I just thought you should know," Erza got up. "Good luck on announcing," she stated, walking out of the shop. You sighed. You couldn't blame Milliana or even Kagura for their feelings even though he was your brother. There was a time that you hated him too, but you forgave him in the end, because he's always been there for you in some way.

You finished your coffee and headed to the coliseum. You met Mr. Yajima and Chapati Lola in a simple, yet nicely decorated room. There were three couches with a coffee table in between. On the coffee table sat a coffee maker and a tea set. There were two vending machines on the wall opposite of the door as well. Chapati and Yajima were sitting opposite of each other on the couches.

"(F/n)! You're just on time," Chapati smiled.

"Thank you for approaching me about announcing. Is there anything I should know before going out?" You asked, sitting on the third couch.

"Just keep a smile on your face. I'll ask you for input here and there."

"Alright."

"Welcome to day three of the Grand Magic Games! That puts us at the halfway point!" Chapati exclaimed.

"How are we ever going to top the fights and the eye candy the last two days have brought us?" Yajima added.

"I personally will be on my best behavior for today's guest, (F/n) Fernandes, the Wizard Saint!"

"It's been a while," Mr. Yajima looked over at you.

"Thank you for having me here," you smiled.

"Let's kick off this game with one that's sure to be exciting. One that we call 'Pandemonium'!"

You watched as members came out onto the field. Erza came out for her team, and you knew she had this in the bag. If she was participating, everyone else would be dead meat. Cana was participating as well. You weren't so sure about her, but we'll see. Even Milliana was participating. You couldn't wait to see her in action either. Orga Nanageer was participating for Sabertooth, Jura for Lamia Scale, Hibiki for Blue Pegasus, Obra from Raven Tail, and Nobarly from Quatro Cer- Puppy.

After all the participants were called out, a huge upside-down castle started forming out of a big magic circle in the sky.

"Before you stands a castle with vicious monsters! That's Pandemonium!" Kabo explained. The pumpkin mascot went on to explain further. Basically, it was a huge castle with 100 monsters inside. Each monster was classified by their degree of difficulty. There were 50 D-class, 30 C-class, 15 B-class, 4 A-class, and 1 S-class. He showed what a D-class monster looked like, and it looked pretty tough, but of course, looks are just looks. Monsters of a higher class were two times stronger than the ones below it. Each member would take turns and choose how many ever monsters they wanted to fight. For each monster they defeated, they'd gain a point. If they were taken out, however, they would gain no points for their turn. Each turn would be decided by the drawing of a stick.

Erza drew her stick and ended up being chosen as the first competitor.

"Inside this castle wait 100 monsters. I choose to challenge.... all of them!"

Everyone looked at the red head like she was insane. You smiled to yourself. You knew she would pull a stunt like this.

"You don't seriously mean that, do you?! This event was supposed to be for multiple wizards! Not to be completed by one!"

"I don't care."

'Typical Erza move. Though, I would've done the same.'

Erza started her way up the ramp to the castle. She got inside and announced herself as multiple monsters came at her. She requipped into her Heaven's Wheel Armor, doing her signature move along with it, beating 27 D-class monsters. She took out multiple monsters with her Black Wing Armor, and then quickly requipped into her Flame Empress Armor as a fire blast was sent at her. She kept going through monsters one-by-one, with different armors and swords. Before anyone knew it, she was up against the S-class monster that was a tiny being that had been following her around all along.

The small monster suddenly turned into a huge one, and quickly weighed Erza down with its' foot.

"This tower truly is worthy of the name Pandemonium," you stated.

Erza was sent across the ground as the beast kicked her. She swiftly cut both of its' hands to shreds, and then came from behind, doing the same to the monster's head. You beamed down at the arena as Erza held her sword up. Everyone in the audience started cheering.

"The crowd is going bananas over this inspiring performance!"

"I thought the suspense was going to kill me," Yajima put his arm over his eyes.

"I must say, that was breathtaking! Titania truly deserves her title." Erza smiled up at you and you winked at her.

"Erza dominated the Pandemonium event and scored 10 points for her team!"

The rest of the members still had to be ranked, so the game planners decided to do an MPF. The highest score would be ranked the highest, and the lowest score would be ranked the lowest. You didn't really feel that it was fair, however, since it shouldn't really be about magic power, but instead how you use it. But they had to come up with something quick, so you wouldn't complain.

You looked down in amusement as Cana was drinking, multiple barrels sat behind her. You wondered where they all came from. Milliana went first, stripping off her cloak.

"Here goes! Kitten Blast!" A cat paw-like rope came out of a magic circle, hitting the sphere. The score '365' appeared above the magical object. Murmurs of confusion were heard throughout the audience.

"I see there's some confusion, so allow me to elaborate," you said amongst the silence as everyone looked towards you. "Rune Knights often use the MPF in training, and it's also sometimes used to rank a Wizard Saint. Milliana actually did pretty well. That score would qualify her for squad captain."

"Wow, what an impressive start!"

Nobarly then went next, scoring 124. Hibiki went after, scoring a very depressing score of 95. Obra, from Raven Tail, went afterwards, scoring 4. It seemed that they didn't want to show their magic power, but then why be in this event in the first place? You also heard that he attacked Wendy and Carla. Orga then stepped up, earning multiple cheers. He used 120 mm Black Lightning Canon, earning a pretty impressive score of 3825. He sung into the mic, reminding you of a too familiar Iron Dragon Slayer.

"Do you mind if I give it my all?" Jura questioned, stepping up.

"That's the game, isn't it?"

'Uh oh...'

"Here he goes, folks. What does Jura have in store for us?"

Immense magical power started surrounding the earth magic user as he put his hands together in a praying fashion. The ground started rumbling and a huge light shot up out of the ground.

"Rumbling Mount Fuji!"

The light disappeared and the numbers displayed 8544.

"Jura has proved that the title 'Wizard Saint' should not be taken lightly! The final challenger is Fairy Tail Team B's Cana Alberona! I certainly wouldn't want to follow Jura, that's for sure!"

Cana walked up to the MPF with a stumble. She took off her jacket, revealing a bright red tattoo.

"Now, the grand finale!" Cana yelled with a cocky grin. She held her arm up as a bright yellow light surrounded her, shooting up into the sky. Immense magical power surrounded her. "It's time to assemble the river of light that's guided by fairies!" She pointed her arm towards the MPF. "Shine your light, so that I may vanquish the fangs of wickedness! Fairy Glitter!" A bright yellow ring formed around the coliseum and shrunk towards the MPF, completely demolishing it. The numbers glitched, showing the score 9999.

"Oh my goodness! I can't believe it ladies and gentlemen! The MPF is history! Her magical power is off the charts! This guild is beyond incredible! Fairy Tail has taken today's event by storm! Can anyone stop them now?!"

"There's no stopping us! We've just started to rock your world! Fairy Tail will be number one again!" Cana shouted, holding her arms out.

All the members went back to their stands as Chapati announced the rankings. Raven Tail was still first, Lamia Scale was second, Sabertooth was third, Mermaid Heel was fourth as well as Fairy Tail Team A, sixth place was Fairy Tail Team B, Blue Pegasus was seventh, and Quatro Puppy was eighth.

"Now it's time for the battle segment! First up is Mermaid Heel's Milliana, versus Quatro Puppy's Semus!"

'You've got this, Milliana.'

At first, it seemed that Semus was winning because Milliana couldn't land a hit. All of her attacks bounced off. She finally restrained him with an attack, and knocked him out.

'I knew you could do it...'

"Next up is Sabertooth's Minstrel who sings to the Red Moon, Rufus Lore, versus Blue Pegasus' "Holy Night" Eve Tearm!"
