Full Summary
Lucy takes a shower at her house. She turns around and see Cana there bathing as well to her surprise. Lucy calms down and asks whats wrong. Cana doesn't know and instead asks Lucy about her and her father. Lucy admits she hasn't really been in contact since. Cana gets up to go as Lucy tells her if she needs to talk she can stop by whenever. Cana says she is thinking about leaving the guild.

Lucy goes to Mira and tells her. Mira says not to worry because Cana always gets like that around "this time of year". Lucy then notices all the members are trying to get as many jobs done as possible and the request board was crowded with people. Elsewhere, Charle reveals to Lisanna and Wendy her Precognition ability. She admits it cannot always see very far ahead, but she does demonstrate it by knowing Macao and Wakaba's conversation before it happens. Erza and Pantherlily spar around the guild, with Pantherlily in his full form. Lily shrinks back and complains about not being able to maintain the form long.

The next day, almost all of Fairy Tail is at the guild. The event is finally revealed. The S-Class Wizard Premontional Trial. Makarov announces the exam will take place on Fairy Tail's holy island, Tenrou Island. Wakaba and others explain to Lucy the exam changes every year, but is always very hard, and those who pass become an S-Class mage. Makarov then announces the eight particiapants, Natsu, Juvia, Cana, Levy, Gray, Elfman, Fried, and Mest Gryder. Makarov says only one can win this year. Gajeel cannot believe he wasn't picked, to which Erza says his trust isn't 100% yet. Just then, Charle has a vision of Cana crying, Natsu crying, and a lifeless hand on the ground, and the face of the Killing Mage. Charle has a bad feeling about the trial.
