Disclaimer: I do mot own Fairy Tail. I only own my OCs. My main OC will be mostly replacing Yukino. However, Yukino still has a role in the story.
My story begins in a small port town called Hargeon. It was the year X784. I sit in my seat and wait for the train to pull into the station. It only takes a few seconds for me to here the alarm that tells the passengers to get off. While leaving the train, I pass by a blue cat and a man with salmon hair. The boy looks like he is going to blow chunks, he must get motion sickness. Man that sucks. The least I can do is help. "Water Sooth." A bluish green magical circle appears. A sprout of water shoots from it and envelops the man in water. The water then seeps into his skin leaving the man with a greenish bluish glow. The sickness in his face lessens and he seems to get his bearings.
I turn to leave the train when the cat speaks. "Thanks Mister."
"Don't mention it." I give the cat a slight wave and then walk out. "Okay Cyan there is only one more stop until we reach Magnolia. Might as well see what this port town has to offer." With that in mind I make my way to the market.
There are many different shops in the market district. There is a restaurant called 8- Island restaurant, but there is a cart for vegetables, fruit, and meat. However what really interests me is the magic shop. It is sad that they only have one but beggars can't be choosers. I approach the building just as a pretty blonde steps out although she does not look too happy.
I open the door, and an old man comes to greet me. "Hello and welcome to my humble abode."
"Hi, my name is Cyan. I am a mage, and I was wondering if I could look at your wares."
The old man smiles. "Well certainly. However, not even 10% of Hargeon uses magic, so I might not have what you are looking for."
"That is fine. I will just look around." I first go to the clothing section. The garb I have on just won't cut it. I only have some civilian close, because I forgot to pack properly. I find a good outfit and bring it to the counter. "Do you have a fitting room?"
"Yes it is through that curtain." My eyes follow his finger until I see the room. I give a quick thanks and go change. I quickly strip and admire my body. I have a 6 pack and a toned torso with strong muscles on my arm. My eyes are a nice brown color, and my hair is a light grey color. After admiring myself I decide to get only takes 10 minutes to put on my attire. I step out of the room with a smile. I am wearing a thin blue robe with yellow accents. The robe is tied at the waist with a light green ribbon. The robe is keen length with the slits allowing other people to see my chest and legs. The arms are loose and hang a bit past my hands. I also have on some black form fitting jeans. To finish off my look I have on black gloves and black boots. I love this outfit and of course it is all resistant from damage such as tearing or burns. I go back to the rack and pull out 5 more sets.
I place them on the counter, and then I head over to the book section. I quickly scan through the books looking for anything that peaks my interest. There are two. I pull the first one out Water: Healing Spells for Water Mages. This is a godsend. I mostly just use offensive and defensive water spells. My only healing spell is Water Sooth. This will help round out my skills and help keep my friends next book that I found was Wind: How It Can be Used for Support and Defense. This will be helpful for my partners; I was about to leave when I spotted one more book Transformation Magic. Hey why not this will be good for someone back home. I go back to the man and place the books on the counter.
The next thing I get is a weapon. My last whip is broken. There are quite a bit of whips. I choose one that has blue and green design and a petal shaped end. It is about 10 feet long so it will do. I quickly wind it and place it with my other purchases.
"Will this be all young man?"
"Um I was wondering if you have any gate keys?"
"Are you a Celestial Mage Mister?"
"Yep I am." I pull my hand into the robe and pull the key ring from my waist and pull out the five keys that I have. Two of them were gold, one was black, and two were silver.
"That is quite the collection. May I ask which ones you have?"
"Sure. The two gold keys are Libra of the Heavenly Scales and Pisces the two fish. The Black one is Ophiuchus the Snake Charmer. The two silver keys are Aquila the Eagle and Lepus the Hare."
"That is a wide variety, with both abilities and the rarity. I do have some keys right here." He gestures to the display box. They only contain Canis Minor, but every celestial spirit has worth.
"I would like this one." I say as I pick one up. The moment my hand touches it a pink hue is released. However both Cyan and the Shop owner do not notice.
"Okay plus all of these other purchases the total comes out to 3.6 million jewels."
"Wow that is a lot. I am lucky that I saved up a lot of money." I pull out the required amount and hand it over. "Thank you so much."
"Wait since you bought so much I will throw in this shrinkable trunk in for free." He grabs all of my things and places them in the trunk. Then he applied a magic circle that shrunk the trunk. He handed it over, and I put it into a secret pocket on the inside of the robe. I start to make my way to the door when the owner again stops me.
"Just one moment. There is also this." He pulls out another gate key. It is silver.
"That is the key for Delphinus the Dolphin." I say with surprise. The key has not been seen in action for 30 years.
"Yes Delphinus has been waiting for a promising owner. The girl that came in earlier held promise, but she still has a little growing up to do. I think that you would make a great owner. The key is yours for 4 thousand jewels."
Without hesitating I give him the money and make my way out of the shop. I leave with a big smile. I did not expect much out of that shop, but I actually got a lot of useful things.
Since the train will not be coming anytime soon, so I just start to wander. I end up on a bridge that over looks a town square. There is a large gathering of girls fangirling over a man with a purple cape and purple hair. Might as well check it out.
I hope over the ledge and land next to the group. I have seemed to gain the attention of the man. In the crowd is the girl from the shop. I see on her belt her key ring and whip. Wow is it me or does all celestial wizards use whips. But back to the point. I whistle at the amount of gold keys that she has. I enter the crowd of girls to stand next to the girl with blonde hair. I take a good look at the man. He seems very familiar. I then feel a slight tug in my chest. What is happening? My heart starts to beat faster. I start to feel hot all over. What type of magic is this? I refuse to believe that I think this guy in front of me is hot. The guy in question seems to have noticed that I am being affected. He flashes me a smile, and I feel a pulse of magic hit me. I am falling more and more into this spell. I refuse to be subjugated to this magic. I pulse my magic and the magic that tried to ensnare me receded. I pant a bit from the attack. No one has seemed to notice that they are under a magic spell. It is then that I see the source of the magic. It is a charm magic ring. Those things have been banned for years. Whoever this guy is, he must have gone through a lot of trouble to get this ring.
No matter I will just have to correct this injustice. I grab Libra's key, but before I can summon her the man from the train burst through the crowd. "IGNEEL!" He shouts in excitement. However his excitement soon turns sour. "Who the hell are you?" With the distraction I put Libra back.
The reaction is instant. All of the trapped girls except the blonde attacked the man. It looked like a total beat down. Although these girls were civilians, they could pack a punch. Ouch that girl just kicked him where the sun does not shine.
"Okay girls it is fine. He did not mean any harm. My name young man is Salamander." He takes a pen and a paper out and signs it. "Here" however his jaw drops when he notices that the man is already walking with indifference. This unleashes the rage inside the girls again and they attack once more.
"Okay girls enough. I wish to invite all of you to my private party on my yacht. I hope to see you all there. Red Carpet. He snaps his finger and a purplish fire awakens underneath him, and he rides it way. Well I am glad he is gone, but I will have to find a way on to the ship. I get a bad vibe from him.
The blonde walks over to the man on the ground. "Thanks for the help."
"What?" The guy asks confused.
"I know this must sound like crazy. But that guy was a mage. He was using forbidden magic called charm magic. It ensnares all those that can feel attraction to the user to feel love for them. However the weakness to the magic is awareness. When you interrupted it broke the spell. So thanks for it."
"Yeah no problem." He gets up but winces. "Man what is wrong with those girls. You think they were mages."
"I believe that I can help with that." They both turn to me.
"You're the man that helped me on the train. Thanks."
"You are welcome. Hold still." I raise my hand. "Water Sooth." Water enveloped him and healed the minor injuries that he had.
"Thanks. How can I repay you?"
"You do not need to. To be honest that guy also caught me, but I guess you could say that you helped me get away."
"Oh I should repay you guys. How about lunch my treat."
"Sure. I am Cyan like the color of my magical circles." I give her a smile, which she returns.
"My name is Lucy."
"I am Natsu and this is Happy." Natsu points the cat.
"Hi." The cat says. It sprouts its wings and lands on Natsu's head. Hm oddly familiar.
"Well I know the perfect place for lunch. Follow me." They follow and I lead them to 8- Islander. I open the door and greet the hostess. "Table for 4." She points me to a booth and we sit down. Natsu and Happy end up ordering everything on the menu. Twice. The way they eat is as if their mouths are vacuums.
"Well guys I might not look like it but I am a mage to." She pulls out her gate keys. "These are called gate keys. I use them to summon Celestial Spirits. See I am a Celestial Wizard. I harness the power of the constellations to do battle. But since I see my spirits as friends I fight along side them." She smiles and I nod. It is good to find another Celestial Wizard that values their spirits. "Well I'm not in a guild or anything. Which means I can't be an official Wizard." She stared at Natsu and Happy who were still eating "Oh you probably don't know what a guild is. Well a guild is a place where a wizard can go to find jobs, connect with other mages, and learn magic."
Natsu just continues to stuff his face. I wonder when she is going to realize that he is a mage. Oh well. "So Natsu what brings you to Hargeon?" I ask.
With his mouth still full he answers, "Well I heard a rumor that Salamander was in town. I was hoping that it would be Igneel."
"Who is Igneel?"
"He is the coolest. He is scaly, and he breathes fire."
"So Igneel is like a dragon. That is cool." Lucy says.
Happy swallows the food that is in his mouth and then wipes his face. "No you got it all wrong. Igneel is not like a dragon. He is a dragon." He says pointedly and then continues to eat.
What? "You guy thought that a big fire breathing dragon would be in this small town." Lucy chastises them,
Before the can argue back they seem to take in her words and freeze with shock.
"Well guys it has been fun, but I really got to go now so it was nice to meet you." She then put some jewels on the table, enough to cover the food bill. She walked towards the entrance. However she stopped when she noticed the hostesses face. She turned to see Natsu and Happy on the floor.
"THANK YOU FOR THE FOOD. WE ARE NOT WORTHY OF YOUR KINDNESS."
"Guys it is okay. You helped me, so I gave you food." She said while waving her arms around.
Natsu turned to Happy and said, "Well I feel really bad because we did not really do anything."
"Aye."
"Oh I know." He pulls out the Salamander's autograph. "Here you go." He hands it to her and gives her a wide grin.
She however throws it on the ground. "I don't want that. Look it is okay. We are even. I will just be going." She quickly left with out a word.
I quickly walked around the two on the floor. "I will be taking my leave as well. It was nice to meet you." I gave a brief wave and headed out. The fresh air hit my face and I breathed it in. Well what to do. The train will come in about two hours. Well I guess I could make contracts with my new keys. I make my way down to the water.
It only took me about 20 minutes to get to seaside. When my boots hit the line where the sand met water I decided to stop. Which one first? I think the Canis Minor first.
I grab the key from inside my robe. "I a summoner of the Celestial powers, I need assistance in my journeys. I beckon the spirit of Canis Minor to aid me as a faithful partner. Open gate of the Lesser Doggy: Canis Minor." I pour Celestial magic into the key. There was a bright light and when the light died there was a pink spirit in front of me.
"Hi my name is Cyan. I am your summoner. I want to make a contract with you. Would you be willing to do this?" The spirit thought for a minute before nodding. "Okay perfect. First the contract are you free Mondays?" A nod. "Tuesdays?" Another nod. "Wednesday" This time it was a shake. "Okay Thursday and Friday?" Two nods. "And the weekends?" Two more nods. "Okay that about sums it up. I guess I should give you a name. Um what is your gender? Lift one arm for male and two for female." The spirit lifted both of her hands. "Okay perfect how about Plush? Do you like Plush?" Plush nodded her head. I will let you know if I need you. Close gate of Canis Minor." Then Plush disappeared.
Okay time for the next one. I pulsed my magic. Two small cyan magic circles sprung my feet and I walked on top of the water. I took several steps until I was surrounded by water. I then sat and crossed my legs. I pulled out Delphinus. I raised my hand. "Water Sphere." A small bubble of water floated in front of me. I then placed the key into the bubble.
"I a summoner of the Celestial powers, I need assistance in my journeys. I beckon the spirit of Delphinus to aid me as a faithful partner. Open gate of the Dolphin: Delphinus."
A flash of light flooded the water. I closed my eyes and when I reopened them and a dolphin was in front of me. "Hello Master."
"Hello Delphinus."
"I know you wish to make a contract with me. I give you my full blessing to summon me when ever you want."
"Thank you Delphinus. I love having you as my spirit. I will call you when I need you."
"I will be seeing you Master."
"Close gate of the Dolphin." Delphinus left, and I was left alone on the water. I did not realize that when I finished that it would be nighttime. Well time to get back to shore. I stood and turned around. But just as I was about to go back when I noticed the Yacht that Salamander was talking about. It was far of the shore and in the air was a blue cat and a man with salmon hair heading towards the boat. I wonder what that is about.
I calmly walked to the large boat. It took about two minutes to reach it. I took the whip attached to my hip. I gave it a few swings before I launched it at one of the bars on the top of the boat. The end of the whip wrapped securely around the bar, I then walked up the side of the boat. When I landed I could here talking.
"What are you doing? That is sleep magic?" I start to walk to the voiced. When I reach the end of the hall I can see Lucy in a burgundy dress talking to the Salamander.
"Why aren't you a perceptive one? Yes it is sleep magic."
"Who are you? Are you even from Fairy Tail?"
"Well it does not matter if you know or not so no I am not." He snaps his fingers. "Boys come on out." On queue many men come out behind the curtain with unconscious girls over their shoulders. "You see Lucy it does not matter what you know because you will be joining these girls at Bosco as slaves." He throws his head back in a large laugh.
"Well you made a big mistake in underestimating me." She reaches for her keys. She pulls out a golden key, but before she can open the gate a purple whip grabs the key. "No my gate keys." She tries to reach for them, but some men hold her still.
Bora brings the keys to him. "Listen up boys this is a magic lesson. These are Celestial gate keys. They can only be contracted to one person. So they are completely useless to us. However because Lucy does not have possession of her keys, she will not be able to use then." He walks to the edge of the boat. "Now then just to get rid of these."
Salamander throws the keys as far as he can into the ocean. "No my keys!" She starts to tear up a bit. "I will make you pay." Just suddenly something crashes through the roof of the yacht. It is Natsu and Happy.
"Happy go get Lucy." It is the only command that Natsu can give before he succumbs to his motion sickness. Happy gives conformation on the order, and flies away from the boat with Lucy. I guess it is my turn to act.
I walk out of my hiding spot. "Well done guys that was quite the show. Too bad I have to end it." I say while clapping.
"Who the hell are you?" Some guy asked.
"Men don't worry. I got this. I remember you. You were the male in the crowd of girls. I doubt you will be much of a fight because you barely put up a fight against my charm magic." With that more and more of his men started to laugh at me.
I leaned down to check on Natsu. He was fine, but he just kept mumbling Fairy Tail over and over again. "Don't worry. I will handle this."
Apparently me talking to Natsu pissed the Salamander off. "Don't turn your back to me. Hell Prominence." A large beam of purple fire headed to me.
"Water Wall." My cyan magic circle appeared over my mouth. I released a large torrent of water that quickly spread out to cover both Natsu and I. The beam hit the wall and continued to push, but the water wall was so strong soon enough the beam dissipated. "Let me tell you something "Salamander." You might have had a chance on land, but out here in the ocean, we are in my domain. There is no way you will win. Water Tentacles." 8 tendrils of condensed water formed around me. "Come ate me."
The men refused to move, so I went on the attack. I shot 4 tendrils out to smash into 4 men. They blasted off into boxes. I moved two tendrils to grab two men from moving. I lifted them high into the air and threw them at each other. It seems that some people realized that they needed to fight back.
"Red Rain."
"Wind Slicer."
"Earth Boulder."
A tri combo of fire, earth, and wind headed my way. But I was not scared. "Water Sphere." The 8 tendrils combined into a sphere of water that completely surrounded me and protected me from harm. When the attacks hit my sphere proved to be better. Just as I was about to retaliate I saw a large wave heading towards the ship. This must be the power of Aquarius, cool. "Well it seems that we must be going." I quickly grabbed Natsu and leaped over the edge. As we decent I shouted, Water Surf." Water surf gave me the ability to move over quickly moving water without falling in. As I carried Natsu, we rode the wave that pushed the boat to the beach. It took us less than 30 seconds to reach shore.
Once we touched the sand Natsu seemed to gain his vitality back. "Thanks Cyan for getting me off that death trap." With a quick smile he was off to the bell tower of the town, where the boat crashed. Not wanting to miss any of the action, I chased after him. It did not take long until I ran into Lucy and Happy on the beach.
"Hey guys." I said as I waived.
"Oh Cyan what are you doing here?" Lucy asked.
"Well I was on the boat that you catapulted into town." I said. She at least had the decency to flush.
"Oh uh sorry about that. Aquarius goes overboard a lot."
"It is all good. I think Natsu is about to confront Salamander. We should watch."
"Wait shouldn't we help. Natsu is just one person." Lucy argued.
"No Natsu is fine. He is a really strong mage." Happy insisted.
We watched as Natsu entered the smoke and confronted the Salamander. We were close enough to be able to hear what was being said.
"Fairy Tail. You are in Fairy Tail?" Natsu questioned.
Salamander looked at him with anger. "Yes I am. My master will hear about what you have done to us."
"Really. I find that hard to believe." He then whips his cloak off. "Because I am a member of Fairy Tail, and I have never seen you before."
"Wait Natsu is a Fairy Tail mage?" Lucy shrieked.
"Yep so am I." Happy points to the green Fairy Tail insignia on his back.
"Wait Bora-" a henchmen says.
"Don't say my real name." The man now identified as Bora shouts.
"But Boss I think it is him. He is from Fairy Tail and he has pink hair with that white scarf. It is the real Salamander!" The henchmen shout and then run. Well that won't do. I quickly ensnare them in water bubbles to keep them from getting away.
"So this is Bora." Happy says.
"Wait who is Bora?" Lucy asks.
"That is Bora the Prominence. He used to be apart of the Titan Nose Guild, however he was kicked out for bad behavior." I tell her. We all go back to watching Natsu face Bora.
"I will make you pay for slandering the guild of Fairy Tail." He tries to charge an attack when Bora releases a stream of hot purple fire. Lucy screams and tries to go help Natsu, but we hold her back. She resists but we just point. She looks to see Natsu eating the flames. "Man this is the worst tasting fire I have ever eaten."
"What Natsu can eat fire?" Lucy asks.
"Yes Natsu has a rare form of magic called Dragon Slayer Magic. Igneel taught it to him. It gives his lungs, body, and mind to use the abilities that a fire dragon can use. Also because of his magic he can regenerate lost magic by eating the element of his magic, which is fire." Happy explains.
"Now have a taste of my magic. Fire Dragon's Iron Fist." Both of his fists were covered in fire as he continued to punch Bora further into the sky. "Now feel my breath attack." He put both of his hands in front of him. "Fire Dragon's Roar." A red magical circle appeared and a hot red stream of fire shot out and hit Bora. When the fire finally dispelled Bora was down for the count, but the town also took a large hit. This is not good. Just then we hear the sound of many boots. We all looked to see the army not far behind us.
Immediately Happy takes flight and Natsu grabs both Lucy's and my hand. "Come on we have to hurry." He takes off as fast as he can.
"Where are we going Natsu?" Lucy yells.
He looks back and smiles at her. "You said you wanted to join Fairy Tail right." She nods. "Well come on!" He shouts with excitement.
And with that we ran all the way to Magnolia. This was the start of my journey, and I loved every moment of it.
