Fights would start on a regular basis, people were constantly coming and going with their various missions that they'd be undertaking, and the guild hall was just as filled to the brim with energy as always. As it turned out, the Fairy Tail's 50th annual<strong><em>FAIRY CHAMPION</em></strong>competition was about to commence, and the competitive nature within the guild hall was starting to get so intense that it could almost explode. The<strong><em>FAIRY CHAMPION</em></strong>competition was an annual tournament held by the guild master, and it was the only time of the year when Fairy Tail guild members ever went full out on one another, since the winner was crowned the strongest member in the guild, and was given a seat of honor within the hall for a full year. As if that wasn't enough, their names also got permanently etched on the plaque of champions, an ornamental piece in the guild hall that showed off the names and faces of all the previous tournament winners. Not only was there a huge incentive for being the winner, both in reputation and in prizes, but it was also the best chance in the entire year for rivals to settle grudges, and decide which of them was superior once and for all. All in all, the<strong><em>FAIRY CHAMPION</em></strong>competition was a time honored and heavily cherished tradition for the guild.<br/><br/>And of course, Ralena was absolutely eating it up. She was always an excitable, energetic, competitive girl, and the mere<em>knowledge</em>that she'd be able to demonstrate her growth and her newfound talent made her already temperamental nature reach an all new breaking point. As it was right now, Ralena was crossing her arms and standing in front of the holo-projection bracket, which was only minutes away from revealing who would be fighting who during the tournament. The guild members would all be given 24 hours to prepare, and the tournament would start in full the following morning. "C'mon baby, show me the money!"
