There are many members of Fairy Tail that Lucy would call Wild Cards. Heck, it just might be easier for her to point out who were the ones who weren't, such as herself, Wendy and, Levy. But the biggest wild cards in all of Fairy Tail, at this moment, were none other than two of her own team members, Natsu Dragneel and Erza Scarlet.

It all started when team Natsu was on a mission where they had to capture a certain thief, who stole a valuable item from the magic council. It was no surprise to Lucy that the thief was associated with other mages and team Natsu had to go head to head in battle against them. Unfortunately, their opponents were a lot stronger than they had anticipated. They were outnumbered and they were wasting a lot of magic energy quickly. Grey was then injured in battle and went down quickly, then Erza had to fall back and protect him, using more of her magic energy than she has anticipated, cutting down the number of mages into more than half and continuing to protect Grey. Lucy and Natsu on the other hand were fighting along each other's sides, like the usual power duo they are.

"Natsu, Lucy can handle herself right now, help us out!" Erza said as she whole heartedly continued to try to fend the mages off with a single sword protecting Grey.

Too busy with his fight and too fired up, Natsu ignored the S-class wizard. Due to Erza's outburst Lucy got distracted and immediatly was thrown to the ground by a random opponent.

"Lucy! You ok?" Natsu said as he rushed over to her side.

Slightly bruised, but she was alright. He gives her a confident smile and takes her hand.

"Let's go finish this!" he said and with a new found motivation Lucy nods and gets up from the ground and helps Natsu defeat the rest of the mages and the original thief tied up by her whip. After they defeated the bad guys, Lucy goes over to Grey and Erza to see if they were alright. It seemed like Erza was able to finish off the mages that were attacking them, but just barely. Magic energy running real low and as for Grey was quite angry for over doing it so quickly. The journey back to the guild was tensed filled silence and neither Lucy nor Natsu really could tell why. It wasn't until they actually made it back to the guild when both Lucy and Natsu announced that they were going to head home.

"Hold it there Natsu," Erza said sternly and loudly, causing both of them to freeze in place, "You cannot always be there for Lucy, Natsu. I understand that she is the member closest to you, but you must know that there are other members of you team who could need your help. Grey got hurt, and I had to fight for the both of us. I even asked you for help and you ignored me, but the second Lucy got hit you were instantly by her side. You have to once in a while put either Grey or Wendy, when she is with us, or even me ahead of Lucy."

"What? I don't put Lucy before you guys!" Natsu said boldly.

Grey opened his mouth the counter his statement, but Erza holds her hand back.

"Yes you do Natsu. There are various amounts of examples that I or Grey or anyone else from Fairytail could use to prove my statement. I told you that Lucy was able to handle herself and yet you ignored my request to help us."

"You didn't need help! You were just fine handling them by yourself!"

This caused Erza to get irritated with the fire dragon slayer.

"I was rapidly losing magic energy Natsu! Trust me when I say that if I felt like I could take care of the task at hand by myself then I would have not asked for your assistance!" Natsu did not like her tone with him and he was also starting to get irritated.

"Well maybe, if you were so mean and scary all the time it could be more of an instinct to help you!"

Erza paused for a second at his rebuttle, then lets out a sigh.

"Natsu, I thought that after everything we've been through as a team we finally were able to trust in one other, but with the way you are acting, I am starting to believe that is not the case. No matter what happens, you are always going to pick Lucy over any of us."

With that final statement, Erza walked towards the bar and ordered herself a strawberry cheesecake. The discussion was over and neither Erza nor Natsu wanted to face each other.
