Chapter 1: The myth of the statues

Hello all. This will be the first fanfic I will make, and maybe the only one. I'm honestly doing because this is somewhat a coherent idea that came into my head because of me recently reading a bunch of DBZ/DBS crossover fanfiction (mainly RWBY, Fairy Tale, and others). Like I stated before, this will be my first and possibly only fanfiction title I will make since I'm just doing this out of curiosity and will be my first experience of this magnitude only rivaled by essays. Though let's not talk about essays since my PTSD of the essays I have written over my high school life is acting up again. This story will be a crossover of the worlds of Dragon Ball: Xenoverse 2 and Fairy Tale.

Disclaimer: I DO NOT own these titles because I don't have the creativity and inspiration to have made these wondrous adventures that have been given to us.

Another disclaimer: I honestly do not know if this will be just a one-shot introduction then to be given to a more experienced writer to build upon the given foundation, or if I'm going to build upon said foundation myself. Only the future can hold these answers

But without a further ado, welcome to the story of the Statues that watch over Earth Land.

The mountains are always such ominous places.

Only the bravest of people and/or Mages traverse up mountains for their own reasons. Riches, monsters to be slain, spelunking in caverns that were once abandoned or never found to find whatever lurks inside to either to their demise or to their fortune Or disappointed that there was nothing worth noting in the adventure down the cave. The snow caps being always majestic-like from afar, a picture worth to be painted to capture its beauty as well as it is dangerous with one sudden jostle to bring snow down to the death of anyone caught in an avalanche. Or even an eruption if you were that unlucky to be near to those mountains.

Though, there was another event that accounts for mountains to be labeled as ominous.
A team of four researchers accompanies by Mages working as bodyguards are investigating about recent spikes of energy in a mountain. Said energy was nothing that has been recorded, so this peaked the interest and curiosity of the research group and enlisted some Mages from a guild to accompany them to the origin of the energy spikes that grabbed their attention in the first place. When making up the mountain, they came across a rather large opening in the side of the mountain, and the reading only has gotten stronger when they reach the entrance. The only choice to sate their curiosity was to push further into the mountain.

The cave was more so a straightforward path with the occasional turns but more or less a straight path. The end of the path made the people present made them jaws drop slightly in wonder.

6 stone statues were present at the end of the path. Each statue being different from each other and each having their own trait. One wearing what looks like clothing of a martial artist, one that has a look of a witch with a stereotypical hat and cape, one with a sword and what looks to be a skin-tight suit with boots and gloves, another being what looks like a comic hero of sorts from a visor-like item attached to the head plus the cape attached to the vest, One that is dressed up like a deity of sorts with a halo and clothing of ancient gods, and one that looks normal compared to the other five statues exception of the ring behind the statues head.

The researchers were ecstatic to find the cause of the spikes of energies that made them commit to this adventure since there was a faint sense of the energy that surrounded the items of interest to the researchers. They made a message out for other researchers available to do tests on these statues so they can pull out any more of the energy to be analyzed and recorded. But to no avail. They have tried everything they can do in there power to draw something out of the statues, but the results bare no fruit to champion over. Even a Mage became frustrated at the prospect of these statues bringing up fruitless and not worth the trek up the mountain (besides the Jewels they were being paid to be bodyguards) and cast a spell at the statues, but not leaving a scratch or any signs of damage to show. With research funds dwindling, the researchers made a unanimous decision to abandon the research and just monitor it to see any change while they do other projects.

During the research was still in effect, people got wind of the statues that were in the mountain. As always people tried to make stories up to either try to make a somewhat coherent reason why the statues were there in the first place or to cash in on the growing popularity of the myth. Unlike myths that spread before, this one faded back into obscurity to the point it became nonexistent. Of course, people occasionally bring it up but is met with a scoff and was ignored entirely

The research team kept tabs on the statues for months on end by going to the statue each month to write down any changes. But it became too dangerous to keeps doing said task as a Vulcan has taken over the cave. Time went on and the mountain's ice that covered the top kept freezing over the rest of the mountain and it eventually froze over the cave containing the statues and to the liking and fortune of the Vulcan.

Time went on and eventually, people have now fully forgotten the myth of the statues, forever lost with no one to remember. Though the story will emerge back soon enough as a Fairy Tail guild member going by the name of Natsu Dragneel and a recently accepted Fairy Tail member Lucy Heartfilia finding their guild member Macao Conbolt. The "Salamander" as Natsu Dragneel has been called will be the key to the awakening of the statues.

This is where the story of The Statues that watch over Earth Land will begin.

I am drawing reference from another crossover fanfiction of the same worlds. Said fanfiction is called Fairy Tale Xenoverse (FTXV) by Synergizer since it's the most recent fanfiction I have read. I did not take anything from this fanfiction, the reference part is how to structure the beginning part and the story in general because this is my first time doing something on my own free will. You should read Synergizer's fanfiction stated above since this person probably did a better job at making a fanfiction then I ever could.

I hope you tolerated my attempt at making a fanfiction, any criticism will be much appreciated since this is my first attempt to build a story that isn't demanded as an assignment for school. As stated in the beginning I do not know if I'm going to continue this or not, but only the future can answer that question for me.

But until the next time when our paths cross, farewell.
