Three days have passed since the guild came back from Edolas, Axel didn't one what happened in Edolas after they came back since this time Natsu didn't act as the demon lord. In any way, Axel didn't care at all for whatever happened back there. His girls were safe along with all the guild members and that is what is important to him. Wendy has moved into Fairy Hills after they came back from Edolas saying that she no longer wanted to impose on them. The girls let her go but made her promise that she has to drop by every week.
Axel and the girls had all kinds of fun after they returned. Mira missed the 1st day since she was with her brother and sister. Axel just woke up when sun rays hit his face. Axel found himself surrounded by female flesh which made a goofy smile appear on his face. Though he came out of his musings when he saw that a redhead was missing. Axel reluctantly got out of the place and let the girls sleep.
Axel walked out of the room and finds Erza sitting on a table reading some papers while she was only wearing underwear. Erza notices Axel and gives him a morning kiss and returns to what she has been doing.
Axel: So what're all these??
Erza: These are the reports of all the missions done by our guild members.
Axel: So what are you looking for??
Erza: Its almost time for the S-Class exams. I am looking for potential candidates.
Axel: Give me some... let me help you.
After that Axel takes some of the papers which had the reports of the missions done by each member of the guilds. After looking for a few minutes Axel took out one name, it was Levy McGarden.
Erza: You know something strange happened yesterday.
Axel: Strange like what??
Erza: I guy came to the guild, I don't know him and I am damn sure that I have never seen in my whole life. But here is the thing the whole guild is treating him like an old and respected member. I asked some of the members and they told me that he has joined the guild long ago.
Axel: What's his name??
Erza: Mest Greydar, I didn't do anything to him because I wanted to discuss this first with you guys. But we both know how last night turned out.
Axel: Right... he might have used some kind of memory altering spell.
Erza: For his wellbeing, he shouldn't have done that.
Axel: Was Makarov in the guild??
Erza: Yes, he was.
Axel: Then he must know about this... he may be old but he won't let any harm to come near his children.
Erza: Yes, that can be. He has a lot of secrets hidden within the guild but don't go and ask me what they are.
Axel: Fine... keep your secrets.
After that, they continued looking through the names. One of them was obvious Cana Alberona. While Axel and Erza were doing this Ur and Cana walked into the room. Both Cana and Ur kissed Axel and went to prepare some breakfast. Soon Axel and Erza were done with that stuff and set them aside.
Erza: I guess that will do.
Axel: So how have you planned the exam??
Erza: Not saying... remember Cana is a participant.
Axel: Oh... yeah.
After a couple of hours Axel and girls left for the guild, Erza entered the guild and found Makarov. She dragged him away for some private chat. Axel and the girls sat down on a table and somehow Gildarts popped out of the blue and started to embarrass Cana. Still, Gildarts didn't know about Cana's relationship with Axel and Ur.
After half an hour Erza and Makarov came back. Erza took the stage but was unable to gather everyone's attention. A tick mark grew n her head and slammed down her foot on the table effectively shutting everyone up.
Erza: All of you might have an idea of what this is about...
Soon cheers erupted from the guild and all of them started to talk among themselves. Erza stomped her foot again silencing everyone.
Erza: It is already that time of year, the time when we hold S-Class promotion exams. This year exams will be held on Tenroujima island the Hold Land of Fairy Tail. The home of Fairy Tail.
Everyone started to cheer again forgetting about Erza. Erza had enough of being interrupted. She unleashed her magic power which made everyone shut up, Makarov and Gildarts both started to sweat when they felt the intensity of the Magic.
Erza: So let me announce the primary rules of the Exam. Each participant should have another partner but they shouldn't be S-Class mage. Now let's get started with the names...
Natsu Dragneel... (Natsu wanted to shout and cheer but a single glare from Erza made him think otherwise)
Cana Alberona... Gray Fullbuster... Levy McGarden... Elfman Strauss... Mest Gryder. Now that is done with all S-Class mages and Master Makarov please accompany me to my office and guys now you are free to cheer and shout.
As soon as Erza finished speaking the guild erupted in loud cheers and congratulations. All the S-Class embers and Makarov followed Erza to her office. After they entered Erza asked them to close the doors.
Erza: I called all of you here since all of you will be the primary examiners of this exam and Master Makarov I don't want spies within the Guild.
Everyone was shocked to hear including Axel since he had to act that he too didn't know about that.
Makarov: I will take care of him don't worry.
Gildarts: Is this about Mest Gryder??
Makarov: Yes, it is.
Erza: Master you knew that Axel took care of Magic Council. I only allowed in the exams because I will be able to keep eye on him. If he does anything to which would even put anyone in danger the I will kill him by my own hands. Fairy Tail member or not...
Makarov was shocked that Erza would say anything like that.
Makarov: What are you saying Erza?? He is a member of our guild.
Erza: Tell me does he know about that?? He doesn't... he believes that he works for Magic Council and Axel already should you the file. Magic Council would go to any lengths to get anything they want.
Guildarts: What is she talking about old man??
Erza pulled out a file from her table while needed her Magic authentication and threw the file to Gildarts. Gildarts started to scan through the file and became disgusted by each page.
Gildarts: Old man whatever I don't know how but you have to return that guy's member.
Makarov: I will do that but Erza arent such measures too much??
Erza: No, they are cowards who will leave anyone behind when their ass gets on the line. I won't and can't trust such a person even if you return his memories.
Gildarts: If the information in this file is correct then I agree with Erza.
Axel: I think its too late for that... Cana told me through her card that Mest took Wendy as his partner.
Makarov knew this was bad since Axel's girls were very protective of that little girl.
Makarov: Wait here I will bring him here...
