I was also thinking about how things might play out now. if August realises Brandish was influenced by mest he could give her a chance to make up for her betrayal and fight with him. or he could attack her anyway for aiding the enemy and questioning the empire. I think Brandish will be in shock and stay in a trance. or she could lash out at Mest, Natsu and Lucy. she could also be hesitant in attacking Lucy. Natsu was wanting to fight anyway and Lucy might try to console Brandish. I think Mest will try to escape but August could prevent him in a similar way he blocked Warens radar. It would also be amusing if August could use a magic that increases his power when injured, making mests actions more ironic since he was trying to protect the guild and made everything wore.
