-The next day-

Ever since I woke up I felt like something bothersome was about to happened. But I didn't felt like thinking too much in the morning so I started to walk towards Fairy Tail. I was too sleepy to noticed all the commotion happening outside the guild.

I walked straight in and sat on the nearest bar stool and planted my face on the bar counter.

"Hey, Samael-nii!"

I heard a feminine cheery voice just behind me. I looked back and saw Levy.
"Oh, Levy. Good morning." I said while yawning.

"What do you think you're doing inside the guild?" She said with a curious expression.
"To get food..?"
"You can get your food later! Come on!" Levy said as she took my arm and started to drag me outside the guild. I'm much more stronger and heavy than she. But I was too sleepy to try and stop her.
"And why should I wait for my food?" I said nonchalantly
"Natsu's and Erza's fight of course!" She said with an exciting smile.
"Oh... that. I forgot."

Levy dragged me until she found Jet and Droy. Leaving me near Elfman, Mirajane and Max.

"Samael! Glad you came!" Mirajane said with her sweet smile.
"Not that I had a choice.. Levy brought me and then left." I said with a sweat drop.
"A real man doesn't loose the opportunity to see a manly fight!!" Exclaimed Elfman.
"Hmm, I guess you're right.." I hummed.

After a while Lucy appeared with Gray.

"Isn't this too dangerous?! If two members of the most powerful team face off against each other.." Lucy said with concern.
"The most powerful team? Who would say something so stupid like that?" Said Gray.

Mirajane started to cry because of Gray's comment. Apparently she was the one who said that me, Erza, Natsu and Gray were the most powerful team in Fairy Tail. She leaned on my chest and I started to pat her head. "There, there."

"I will have to disagree..." said a Elfman. "Sure Natsu and Gray are pretty manly. But I wouldn't call them the 'Most Powerful' mages in Fairy Tail alone." He added.

"There's no mistaking that Erza is the strongest woman in Fairy Tail." Levy said. She was pretty close so she listened to the conversation.
"And for the strongest man, I would say Samael or Guildarts. Sure Laxus and Mystogam are stronger but Samael and Guildarts are on another level." Jet said
"Don't forget the old man." Droy said.

"Wow that's awesome..." Lucy said amazed by this new information. She looked at my direction as I was still petting Mirajane to calm her down. She was trying to analyze how I could one of the strongest if she barely saw me fighting. I can't blame her though.

-Towards the fight-

Erza and Natsu kept on staring at each other. The atmosphere within the two was too tense.

"How many years has it been since your magic clashed against mine?" Erza said calmly.
"I was just a kid back then. But now I'm stronger! This time I will win against you. And then fight Samael!"

Erza chuckled "I must warn you, this will not be play-acting for me. I got to text my strength!" Erza requip to her 'Fire Empress Armor'

Happy looked intense between his best friends and comrade. He went towards Canna and bet in Erza's winning.

Natsu grinned knowing Erza would much changed into her Fire Empress Armor. "Now I can fight with everything I got!! No regrets! No holding up!"

Just the Master Makarov appeared and gave the go to the fight.

The fight was intense. Erza dodge and attack so gracefully while Natsu was trying to land an attack on Erza and even getting too close to the public.

*Samael's POV*

Natsu sure has gotten stronger, but he still needs to train to be able to beat Erza. If Erza doesn't take any pitty or makes a mistake then I'm safe. It'll be troublesome to fight him really...

Just then we heard a clapping noise.
"To all, fo not move from this spot! I am an envoy from the council."

A frog, probably close to five feet hot near Erza and Natsu and started to take out a scroll.

'The council... dammit I must leave before that thing notices me'

"During the occasion of the Eisenwald terror case... as a suspect in eleven country property damage.. I have come to arrest Erza Scarlet!"

This left me and almost everyone shocked. Probably Natsu more. "W-What?! What did you say?!!" He was the one to exclaimed more.

"And also for various reasons also. The Council must ask Samael Silver to come with me along with the arrest of Erza Scarlet."

"EH?!"

"Is that an order..?" I asked. And unfortunately the envoy said "Yes. Now come along."

I sighed. 'Great... this must be the bad feeling of this morning. Should've stayed home.'

"Samael.."
A voice below called me. I looked down and was met with Mira's bright and round blue eyes. "Is it something serious?" She asked. Clearly she was concern and worried about why the Council will request my presence. I smiled a little and place my hand on her head. "Don't worry, it's nothing. Surely it's the common thing. I will just turn them down like always. I will come back soon, alright?" She looked at me with hope in her eyes. She nodded and smile. "Alright, I'll wait for your arrival. But don't anything reckless." I chuckled and said "I know I know... no promises." I quickly went next to Erza following the Council's messenger.
