Beauty

Erza woke up feeling slightly light-headed and unsteady. She got up and looked at her surroundings. Guessing by the portrait hanging on the wall in front of her must mean she is still in his mansion. She looked down to see herself dressed in a nightgown and her other clothes were missing. `she saw a cup of water on her bed-side table with some pills. She took them and immediately felt a wave of fresh air inside of her.

"I guess I'll have to thank that idiot Tigra when I see him," she whispered to her self.

Tigra must have ordered to have her subordinates taken care of as well and felt a sense of relief. Tigra was a very arrogant and boastful man, but from her childhood memories, he had a soft spot for everyone. Erza thought about the assassination attempt and clenched her fist,

"The battle has yet to begin."

She gently got out of bed and walked towards the long mirror near the balcony. When she looked at herself, it made her wonder why Tigra had ladies clothing in his home. She found a robe laying on her bed and immediately put it on.

She walked downstairs to the kitchen completely famished as if she hadn't eaten for a whole day. As soon as the scullery maids and chefs realised the young princess had entered the room, they immediately curtsied and bowed. Erza was happy to know that Tigra's servants had manners as Tigra was a very bad influence on the people around him. Erza gave them a smile and nodded, signalling that they could raise their heads. A normal maid walked in and only to see the princess. She curtsied and rose her head to say "If your majesty would like, I can prepare a more suitable attire for your highness whilst we prepare dinner." Erza didn't feel like talking and just nodded a 'yes'.

Erza changed into a plain and simple pink gown. She put on a pair of matching light pink shoes and wore long silver earrings. She put her pink hair into a low neat bun with a bit of her fringe hanging from both sides of her face with the help of the maid. She also put on very light makeup to make her look more like a lady and put on a peachy perfume. It has been a while since she dressed up nicely. She looked absolutely stunning. Her look was elegant yet simple. She walked out of her room and into the hallway to the dining room.

Erza slowly and gracefully walked down the stairs and everyone's eyes widened in astonishment. Their mouths hung open as they watched the beautiful angel walk downstairs with her right hand holding onto the handrail and the other lifting up her dress. When Erza reached the last step she looked around to see everyone was also well dressed wearing new and clean clothes except for Eveline.

Luka wore a blue suit with his dark black hair pulled back revealing a scar on the top right of his forehead. Eveline didn't like wearing dresses since she was a bit of a tom-boy so she didn't bother changing so she wrapped her black cloak around her body. Celesta formed her own clothing using magic. She wore a plain white loose dress stopping just above her ankle and white flats. Tigra wore a red tuxedo matching his fiery hair. He parted his hair making himself look like a full-grown man, but everyone knew he was still the childish idiot on the inside.

Mikasa alos stood their in a bright ble dress up to her knees and smiled at Erza. She was quite shocked but smiled back. Mikasa ran towards Erza and hugged her,

"I missed you so much, and fortunatly Luka stopped by this morning to take me to you, but when I got here, you had a fever," she said dissapintedly. "But I still trained really hard, I'm on level four now because of the purified demon cores," Mikasa said excitedly.

Erza hugged her back and said, "well done, I truly have the best disciple because bow you can unlock your first meridian, I'll help you do that tomorrow," she smiled.

Tigra cleared his throat and stood up from his seat at the head of the table trying to look away from the pure beauty in his home, his cheeks were bright red but his eyes were glued to her. He was holding himself up because of his injury so he could have a clearer view of Erza from top to bottom. One of the butlers pulled out a chair for Erza and she took a seat on the right of Tigra. Mikasa sat in between Celesta and Erza whereas Luka and Eveline sat on the opposite side of the table. Erza smiled at Tigra, a smile which illuminated the room. Tigra held up a lavishing cup of red wine and said,

"Thank the heavens for keeping us alive!" Everyone raised their glasses and cheered as they drank their wine except for Mikasa, she had a glass of orange juice. Everyone ate and drank to their heart's content, however, Celesta and Erza refrained from drinking too much as an attack could occur anytime and Mikasa, of course, was underaged.

After dinner, they all comfortably fell asleep.
