I was actually surprised there, because I expected this noise to be caused by that Minerva, like "Oh, god, the crazy woman is back".

But of course, the nakama thing is quite expected, though not really logical... I mean, with all that Raven Tail has already done, especially with Wendy and the fact that they alledgedly want to kidnap Lucy, they only decided to attack a guild while their master "only" chased one of its members... Well I understand, with the way she was humiliated, I'd also definitely want to kick that guy's ass, but Natsu's argument is that they forced her to erase her stamp, doesn't really make sense.

However, a fight this "early" (given the fact that they haven't really fought Sabertooth, and that the games seem far from being over) is quite weird, especially against their master, while usually, it's firstly the members and then the big boss. So I wouldn't say it was expected, at least for me. And I also have to say that what he told him "if you lose to me, then you'll have to quit", it was really cool, one of the coolest things he has said, way cooler than his "I fight for my friends".
