If anyone where to look at me at the moment they would never guess that I had been badly hurt yesterday. I honestly didn't care what anyone thought as I grabbed my long hair, tied it in a plait and then put it in a bun.
"Lucy" I heard and I stopped seeing Dorenbolt and Lahar standing there, seeming to have just got off duty.
"Lahar, Dorenbolt" I said before I realized something. If I brought these two along with me then things would go smoother and I wouldn't have to worry about any complications that could arise.
"I'm actually in a hurry but I would really appreciate it if you would come with me. I believe this is something that you can help with along with the council knowing about this matter" I said with a smile.
"You aren't going to be reckless and start a fight with Minerva are you?" Lahar questioned.
"No, what happened in the Grand Magic Games between me and her will be settled in the Grand Magic Games. This is something else but we have to hurry if not we will be too late" I said.
"In that case lead the way," Dorenbolt said and I nodded before hurrying towards the inn that Sabertooth was staying at. We could have gotten Dorenbolt to use his teleporting Magic to get us here but I couldn't exactly explain why we needed to be there.

As we arrived at the door we heard a large bang and I could tell that the other two were curious so I opened the door a crack so we could see in. Jiemma was standing in front of the guild with a large crater under his foot.
"That sounds like the whining of a weakling to me, is that what I'm hearing?" Jiemma demanded as he stared down Rogue and Sting who were covered in bandages.
"Well? I don't recall asking to hear your pitiful excuses, Rogue. And I never asked you to embarrass me like this. You disgraced our name as the mightiest guild" Jiemma said and his magic power grew as it became visible to the human eye.
"Lahar we should do something" Dorenbolt hissed.
"We can't," Lahar sighed.
"He hasn't given you cause to stop this and arrest him but he will. Make sure your magic is at the ready, Dorenbolt," I said and they looked at me before nodding. We watched as Sting was sent rolling across the ground while Rogue was slammed into the wall hard enough to leave a dint. I wanted nothing more than to slam myself into the room and destroy Jiemma. I wanted to make him pay for not only the pain that he was causing the members of Sabertooth but also the humiliation that he was causing them. They were great warriors and even better mages but he threw them away like they were trash if they even lost once.
"Sting," Lector yelled, running to his friend.
"Rogue" Frosch yelled as they rushed to Rogue.
"Worms like you aren't fit to call themselves members of Sabertooth" Jiemma continued as he once again kicked the two mages. I could feel blood dripping from my hands as my nails pierce the skin from how hard I was clenching them.
"Get out, I don't want to see your faces here again. Our guild has no room for losers, that's how we remain strong" Jiemma said. My brown eye flashed golden for a moment when I saw the smirks of the other guild members. I wanted to bring the wrath of the stars down on them but I had to wait.
"Oh come on Master, Sting and Rogue tried their best, isn't that what matters the most" Lector said even though he was shaking.
"Get ready" I ordered and I saw both the council members tense and Dorenbolt's magic was ready as well.
"I know Sting lost but that's okay, he still gave the fight his all and I am proud of him" The exceed said.
"Lector," Sting said.
"If you want my opinion you gotta lose sometimes or you would never grow as a person. This defeat gave Sting a chance to learn a lot about himself and his opponent. So why not just let it slide" Lector said and a small smile crossed my face. He was right, thinking of all the times that me and the other members of the guild had lost before coming out on top, it was too many to count. Each defeat made us stronger.
"Who the hell are you?" Jiemma demanded.
"What d'ya mean Master? I'm a bonafide member, I've even got the saber crest to prove it, don't ya see?" Lector asked moving his vest out of the way to show his mark off. Jiemma's magic power grew and I hit Dorenbolt's arm making him nod, he had already realized what was going to happen. Lahar on the other hand has already secured an arrest warrant as well as asked for a transport vehicle and back up.
"This is a total abomination, who defiled our guild's sacred crest by placing it on this mangy little creature" Jiemma scowled before sending a blast of magic towards Lector. Dorenbolt was there in a second grabbing the Exceed and appearing next to me even quicker.
"NO LECTOR!" Sting screamed.
"Lector is gone, Master killed him" Frosch said. Seeing the other Rune knights arrive, Lahar gave me a nod and burst into the room.
