Author Notes: Hello everyone, and thank you for checking out my latest project story! It's been a while since I really updated due to several factors. Mainly just losing too much time to work, and family matters. So I apologize for that. However I'm happy to say that I am sticking around for a while again, and I figured what better way to come back than with a new story, and do something fresh, and quite different from the last stories I've done. So before you get any further I'd like to point out that the beginning of the story takes place before the Manga/Anime, or also known as the 'Childhood Period' whichever you want to call it. The story is pretty much follows the main story line however with the addition of my own two characters, and how things happen through the eyes of a not so well known member of Fairy Tail (My OC) There will be pairings too, so fret not! However I will say that they will come in later chapters. I have a lot already worked out for this story, and plan on pacing it properly. So I kept the first chapter relatively short, but later chapters more than likely will become longer. Hopefully you all enjoy reading it, as much as I did writing it :)
Summary: I was once asked what it was like to be a part of Fairy Tail. At the time I was too nervous to really think of an answer to the question.. but now after all these years. I can honestly say without a shadow of a doubt, that Fairy Tail is my family and that no matter what we go through, we will always be by each other's sides.
Disclaimer: I don't own Fairy Tail, or any of it's characters. I do however own the characters of my own creation for the sake of this story.
The Story Begins
Waking up in her room located in Fairy Hills, a young 16 year old woman with long and wavy white hair, large innocent golden eyes, perfect curves despite her age, stretched her arms out above her head with a cute yawn as she got out of her bed. Blinking away any left over sleepiness, she slowly made her way over to her bathroom and sluggishly stripped down out of her nightgown, and hopped into the shower.
Coming out of her bathroom wrapped up in a towel the girl smiled as she opened her closet up and pulled out her usual outfit. Pulling her white, black fur lined over coat over herself she started working on the black buttons and left the top 4 buttons undone exposing a small amount of cleavage to the world. More to let her breath properly, rather than wanting to show the world parts of her body. Pulling up her long black skirt with slits up the sides to cover her legs that had black fur at its ends to match her over coat, she giggled as she grabbed her most beloved possession off of her dresser, and smiled as she set the decoration in her hair.
Nodding to herself as she checked herself over in the mirror, and fluffed up her hair a couple of times to make sure that it was completely dry, she made her way out of her room, and locked it behind her ready to head to the guild for the day.
This young woman is known as Mika. No last name, as she was raised in an orphanage since until the age of 10 when she was then introduced to the third Master of the Fairy Tail Guild after showing signs of containing magic within her. Mika was as you could say.. just a regular run of the mill mage.. if that.. Despite her beauty and bubbly positive personality she wasn't well known by many people..However there was one aspect about her that made people recognize the young woman whenever she was out and about on a job, or just shopping for groceries, and it was the two fake rabbit like ears on top of her head that were the culprit for that.
So far it was just another day all things considering for Mika. Arriving at the guild from her dorm room in Fairy Hills. Mika looked around the guild to see if anyone else in her age group was still in the guild. Spotting Mirajane Strauss, and Erza Scarlet fighting in the middle of the room, Mika sighed.
The two girls were the same age as herself, and made Mika very uncomfortable most of the time, Mirajane would tease and pick on her, while Erza just ordered her around and berated how weak she was compared to the others.
But Erza was right.. she wasn't powerful.. even the younger mages in the guild like Natsu, Gray, Cana, and Elfman were stronger than herself.. she was only barely stronger than little Lisanna.. but that was only because the girl never wanted to fight in the first place, and was more of a helper than a fighter..
Sighing to herself Mika avoided being spotted by the two girls, and sat down at a table with Cana who was arranging her cards. Seeing Cana look over towards her with a smile, Mika returned the gesture.
"Good Morning Cana." Mika smiled politely with a smile.
"Morning Mika." Cana smiled back, before returning to her cards. "You going on a job today?" Cana asked curiously and saw Mika deflate momentarily.
"I'm not so sure." Mika trailed off rubbing her arm nervously, trying to not think about how she can't normally do jobs unless someone else comes along with her.
"Oh come on Mika. You can do it! You just have to remain positive about it, and you'll do great." Lisanna popped up next to Mika nearly making the older girl jump.
"Um.. thanks Lisanna.. but I'm not really feeling like going on a job today." Mika smiled, and saw Lisanna pout.
"Not like you could do one by yourself anyways Rabbit Girl!" Mira yelled out as she was pulling on Erza's long red hair while pushing her away with a foot.
"Mira! Be nice!" Lisanna scolded from the table while pointing at her older sister, and looked back to see Mika grabbing onto one of her fake rabbit ears that adorned the top of her head sadly.
"It's fine.." Mika sighed sadly laying her head down on the table depressed. 'Why does everyone tease me about my rabbit ears? I think they're cute..' Mika thought to herself.
"I know." Cana spoke up bopping a fist onto her open palm. "Why don't we go on a job together?" Cana smiled trying to pick the white haired girls mood up.
"I'd rather not.." Mika groaned feeling like she should of just stayed home.
"Perhaps you should look for a simple job that wouldn't require the use of Magic?" Master Makarov spoke up walking next to the table after noticing the depressing aura coming from the table.
"Yeah, you could do a simple delivery job or something." Lisanna smiled with a nod.
"I.. guess I could." Mika grumbled picking her head up off of the table.
"Very good child. You're never going to progress if you never apply yourself." Makarov spoke sagely as he follow Mika over to the request board, and watched her look over the board with very little interest behind her golden eyes.
After a few seconds Mika reached forward and took a job request paying 15,000J that said 'Help Needed'
"Ah that one. Apparently a mysterious cave has been found in the forests near Shirotsume, and nobody has been able to investigate it due to something protecting it." Makarov said simply before hopping onto the counter to get another beer. "Shouldn't be any trouble for you to investigate it, and report your findings back to the client." Makarov smiled as he sat down on the counter top.
"Okay.. I'll give it a try." Mika said quietly.
"Good girl." Makarov held his hand out and took the paper from Mika and stamped it before handing it back to her. "Good luck." Makarov smiled.
Watching as Mika had left the guildhall a few looked towards each other hoping all went well for the young mage, while a few simply shrugged it off thinking it wasn't any of their business. Namely Mirajane.
"Mika left for a job?" Erza asked looking a little roughed up.
"Yes. She should be back later today, or early tomorrow." Makarov said taking a drink from his beer.
"I know she can do it." Lisanna showed her support for her friend.
"She'll figure out some way to screw it up." Mira grunted with a scowl on her face while glaring at Erza.
"That's enough Mirajane. Mika needs all the support she can get if she wants to be a successful mage. Be a little more supportive of your fellow guild members." Makarov scolded his two S-Class mages.
Meanwhile deep in the forest of Shirotsume..
"Where the fuck did I put it!?" A spiky white long haired, green eyed 17 year old man growled as he threw his possessions around inside of the dimly lit cave.
"Ah hah!" The man roared in victory as he held a book above his head before stroking it to his face tenderly. "Would of been screwed without you.."
Looking around the cave that he had called home for the past few months, the man poked his head out of the cave causing his long messy spiky white hair to swish around over his shoulders lazily.
Searching the area for any animals, or people nearby the boy sighed thankful for the last few days of nobody coming out to this part of the forest to check things out again.
"Now where is the little pile of green fur at? He knows by now he should never leave the cave without me.." The boy grumbled looking around the small clearing in front of the cave for something that apparently had green fur.
Shrugging his shoulders the boy walked back into the cave to start a small fire so he could continue reading his book in relative peace, trying not to worry about his missing companion at the moment.
Making to Shirotsume a couple of hours ago, Mika slowly made her way in the direction of the forest after speaking to the client who had sent the job request.
The client had told the young mage that he wished for her to see if the cave held anything of value inside of it, and to report back to her with whatever she had found inside if she had managed to get near it. Seems simple enough right?
So now.. after entering the forest Mika was on high alert for anything, and was starting to slowly shake due to her nervousness.
"Caves equal darkness.. forests equal animals.. cute furry animals.. but scary ones too.." Mika mumbled to herself and nearly jumped out of her skin when she heard a tree branch crack, and almost fell backwards. But sighed in relief when noticing it was just a deer scampering away after noticing her presence.
"Phew.." Mika giggle before looking down at her compass to take a reading on which direction she was going in. "The client said that the cave was at the most northern part of the forest about a mile away from the large stream that runs through it. Hmm.." Mika spoke out loud as she saw her compass showing her that she was heading in the right direction still.
Continuing her trek through the forest for another 45 minutes, Mika was starting to relax a little more. She had seen nothing but peaceful animals since she had gotten here, and that made her smile. She loved cute animals..
Mika was suddenly startled out of her day dreaming of soft cute furry woodland creatures, and nearly screamed when something small came barreling out of the bushes yelling at the top of it's lungs.
"Ahhhhh!" The little thing yelled with tears in it's eyes as it rammed right into Mika's leg, and fell backwards limply.
Looking down at her feet, and blinking a few dozen times. Mika's eyes started shining. "Oh my goodness! You're soooo cute~!" Mika squealed picking up what appeared to be a green furred kitty with what looked like a few small black lightning like markings on it's back.
"Uhh.." The kitty groaned before slowly blinking himself back into attention, and screamed at the sight of the white haired woman with golden eyes holding him up, but his scream was suddenly muffled by the Mika's breasts as she hugged him tightly to her chest.
Feeling her collar bone being patted Mika looked down, and saw the kitties pained black eyes silently begging to be released.
"Oh thank god!" The cat gasped out as Mika held him out further away from herself in shock.
"You can talk!?" Mika squealed dropping the cat in surprise, and dropped down on all fours to the ground to inspect the cute little creature closer. "You're just like Happy aren't you?" Mika asked, and saw the cat look at her strangely.
"Happy? And I don't know! I just know that I have to get back! He's going to be so mad that I left, and got lost again!" The cat started dancing around in a panic with tears returning to his eyes.
"H-Hold on there.. mister.. uh.. kitty?" Mika trailed off momentarily. "Who's going to be mad?" Mika tilted her head in confusion.
"My friend! I told him I wasn't going to leave while he slept again, but I was hungry..." The cats tearful eyes showed just how much he regretted his decision on apparently leaving his sleeping friend as it looked down to the ground.
Smiling Mika reached into her bag, and handed the cute green bipedal cat half of a tuna sandwich, and saw the cats eyes sparkle.
"R-Really?" The cat whispered as it tried to take the delicious looking sandwich with shaky arms.
"Mhmm." Mika giggled handing the kitty the sandwich. "So do you have a name little kitty?" Mika asked curiously as the cat took a bite of her offering.
"My friend named me Bolt!" The green cat named Bolt answered with a mouthful of food.
"Okay Bolt, My name is Mika. Would you like me to help you find your friend?" Mika asked with a smile.
"Please?" Bolt whispered. "We have been living in a cave that I think isn't too far away from here."
"A cave you say?" Mika repeated.
"Uh huh.. My friend and I have been staying in it for a couple months now.. we.. travel a lot." Bolt trailed off looking pretty sad, and dejected.
"I actually came to this forest to investigate a cave. Maybe it's the same one?" Mika giggled as she picked Bolt up, and set him on her head noticing that he had finished off the sandwich.
"Maybe. There are a lot of caves around the forest." Bolt said before batting at Mika's fake ears.
"They're not real." Mika giggled as she started heading forwards.
About an hour later of very small conversations between the two, Bolt had perked up after recognizing the area that they were in.
"I think we are getting close. My friend destroyed a bunch of trees in front of the cave, so look for something like that." Bolt paused for a moment before climbing forward on top of Mika head to look into her large golden eyes. "You know.. you're really nice lady.. most people wont even talk to me.. or my friend.." Bolt whispered.
"Aww.. why is that? I think you're by far the cutest thing I've seen in years!" Mika giggled as she grabbed Bolt off of her head, and held him in her arms nuzzling him against her face enjoying his soft fur.
"I don't know.. but I know people don't like my friend because of his magic.." Bolt trailed off sadly.
"His magic?" Mika repeated before spotting a bunch of charred and splintered trees ahead.
"Uh huh.. He's not a bad person.. I promise.." Bolt nodded before spotting the sight as well. "It's over there!" Bolt chirped happily. "Um.. thank you for helping me get here lady." Bolt smiled.
"My name's Mika, remember?" Mika pouted cutely.
"Oh yeah! Sorry." Bolt patted her forehead as an added bonus.
As Mika took a few steps forward both Cat, and human saw a massive charge of black and green lightning screaming towards them from the cave as well as a massive pressure raining down on upon their bodies.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH BOLT!?" A distorted male voice echoed out, as its owner appeared not a millisecond later ready to strike at a moments notice, and a look of death on his face.
Completely frozen in spot, and unable to breath properly Mika started to shake at the amount of magical energy that was surrounding the slightly taller white haired green eyed boy in front of her, who's body cackled with green, and black lightning menacingly.
"Don't Brian! It's my fault I promise!" Bolt yelled out wiggling out of Mika's arms. "I got hungry, and left the cave.." Bolt bowed his head in shame.
A few tense moments later the heavy feeling surrounding the area disappeared which made Mika gasp out, desperately trying to refill her lungs with oxygen once more.
"What have I told you about leaving the cave Bolt?" The boy bent at his knees asked angrily with a scowl.
"Not too.." Bolt whispered sadly.
"It's fine little buddy.. just don't do it again. Wake me up next time." The boy sighed. "So who is this?" The boy's intense green eyes snapped up towards Mika which made her 'Eep' in surprise.
"Kinda skittish aren't ya?" The boy commented with a raise eyebrow.
"This is Mika." Bolt said quietly. "She found me deeper in the forest, and helped me find my way back. She's really nice!" Bolt explained.
"She did?" The boy asked looking towards his little friend and saw him nod his head. "Well then.. Mika was it? You have my thanks for helping my lil buddy out." The boy held his hand out, which Mika stared at for a few moments and slowly shook his hand still a little nervous around the boy who nearly gave her a heart attack.
"It.. was no problem.. uh?" Mika trailed off.
"Names Brian." The boy nodded before feeling Bolt jump up on his head, and get comfy.
"...Not the same..." Bolt commented quietly as he tried to nest into Brian's long white spiky hair.
"What?" Brian said in irritation looking towards his forehead.
"Nothing." Bolt answered while looking at Mika who tilted her head in confusion.
"So what brings you to these parts of the forest, besides returning my friend back to me?" Brian asked with a strong tone wanting to determine if she was a potential threat. She certainly didn't look like it. Brian determined he could easily push her over, and put her in the hospital for a week if it came down to it.
"Um.. uh.. I was actually here to investigate a cave here in the forest for a client." Mika spoke quietly as she pulled out the job request form, and handed it to Brian as proof.
Reading the piece of paper with a raise white eyebrow, Brian chuckled as he handed it back to the girl in front of him. "Well here's your cave." Brian threw a thumb over his shoulder as the two made their way towards it. He had nothing to hide from this weak woman, so he'd let her check it out. 'The sooner she checks out the cave, the sooner she can leave.' Brian told himself mentally.
Looking around the dim candle lit cave Mika noticed that it wasn't that deep, and was large enough for someone to move around in. Other than that it was just a simple cave. Her thoughts started to wander towards the furthest parts of the cave but suddenly froze as she spotted a HUGE spider creeping along the wall of the cave near the white haired boy in front of her who looked none the wiser.
"Um there's a- EEP!" Mika tried to point out, but squeaked as Brian punched the large spider on reflex killing the thing.
Shaking his fist off, and wiping the spiders guts off of his fist Brian turned towards her with a curious look on his face. "What?"
"T-That.. was so~ gross!" Mika shivered as she held herself to control her shaking. She hated big creepy crawlies..
"Eh.. you're standing in a dark cold cave, in the middle of the summer in a forest.. what did you expect?" Brian shrugged his shoulders before walking towards the small fire located in front of a simple sleeping bag, and a few other small worldly possessions of his.
"So um.. if you don't mind me asking.. why are you two staying here?" Mika asked still a little nervous about being in this cave.
"Avoiding the world pretty much." Brian answered as he sat down in front of the fire with Bolt sleeping peacefully still on top of his head.
"Why?" Mika asked curiously. 'I know Bolt said that people were afraid of his friend due to his magic.. but that didn't mean he should hide from the world.. right?' Mika thought to herself as she looked around herself nervously.
"Tell me Mika.. do people tend to like Demons?" Brian asked with his green eyes meeting her golden ones.
"Demons?" Mika's eyes widened at the mention of the topic, and saw Brian simply keep his eyes locked onto hers. "Not usually.." Mika trailed off quietly.
"There's you're answer then." Brian looked away towards the fire.
"But.. you're human.. right?" Mika asked moving forwards, and sitting down in front of the small fire a few feet away from him.
"Yes, however my magic isn't." Brian answered, and saw a questioning look on Mika's face. "I use a type of Demonic magic." He explained simply.
His answer reminded Mika, about Mirajane's magic, and how she took over the souls of demons to fight. "I know someone who uses magic like that."
"Oh yeah?" Brian trailed off in an uninterested tone.
"Mhmm. She's just made S-Class this year at our guilds S-Class trials." Mika explained.
Looking towards the woman near him, Brian raised an eyebrow at that. "You're a guild mage then?" Brian asked and saw Mika slowly lift up her robe/dress up to her thigh revealing her long slender creamy skinned leg to him with a large blush on her face, and showed him her gold colored guild mark.
"See?" Mika said quickly pushing down her long black skirt still blushing like mad.
"Neat." Brian nodded with a blank look on his face.
"You know.. you could join a guild too." Mika spoke up after a few minutes of silence between them.
"Not really a people person if you couldn't tell." Brian grumbled slightly irritated that this woman wouldn't just leave now that she had done as requested of her.
"But you could meet people, and make new friends." Mika asked hoping he'd at least think about the prospect of joining a guild. "Do you really want to live in caves for the rest of you're life?" Mika followed up with.
"Well that was a low blow.." Brian growled out. "I don't exactly wish to be living in a cave here Mika." Brian bit out.
"I-I'm sorry! I didn't mean to offend you! I just.. wanted to help." Mika trailed off averting her eyes after making Brian upset.
"Look.. it's fine.. Eventually I'll figure something out for us." Brian sighed as he slowly poked the small fire to keep it alive. "So what guild are you from?" Brian asked simply.
"Fairy Tail." Mika smiled slightly.
"Isn't that the guild that's always getting in trouble with the magic council?" Brian questioned, and saw Mika nod.
"Yes.. the other members are.. really destructive.." Mika tried not to giggle at the thought of everyone coming back from nearly any job with a large fine, or a complaint of some nature.
"Sounds like a good time." Brian commented as he picked Bolt off of his head, and set the cat down into his lap stroking his head.
Watching as the boy next to her calmly stroke Bolt's head making the cat purr lovingly, Mika smiled softly at how protective Brian was of him, and turned back to look at the fire. "You know.. people from guilds understand magic.. and wouldn't shun you because of what you were born with.. I think Bolt would like being in a guild too." Mika smiled softly towards him.
"Probably.." Brian mumbled closing his eyes, feeling the temperature starting to drop slightly. "It's going to be getting dark here soon. You better head back now if you wanna make it back into town by nightfall." Brian spoke up with his eyes still closed, and heard Mika quickly stand up, and shuffle her feet around.
"Oh no! I'll never make it back in time." Mika worried as she started looking around outside the cave to try, and remember which direction she had come from.
Sighing at the sight of the woman panicking in front of the cave Brian carefully moved Bolt out of his lap, and onto the ground. Feeling the sudden hard cold ground woke Bolt up, making the small cat look around confused as to what was going on.
Moving around himself Brian started to pack up his belongings into his traveling bag, and rolled up his sleeping bag, and strapped it on top of the pack.
"We leaving?" Bolt asked before yawning cutely and felt Brian pick him back up into his arms.
"I'll take you back into town.." Brian trailed off seeing Mika stop flailing her arms around in panic. "Seeing how you helped Bolt make it back to me, it's the least I could do for you." Brian finished, and saw Mika look towards him quickly with a thankful smile on her face.
"Oh thank you so much!" Mika bounced around for a moment happily.
"Here." Brian handed a dozing off Bolt to her, and was shocked to see Bolt snuggle up to her so quickly after being passed off by him. "Traitor.." Brian whispered under his breath, and saw Mika look back towards him curiously as the two started making their way through the forest.
"You say something?" Mika asked cutely.
"No. We better get moving." Brian grumbled with narrowed eyes.
A few hours later night has settled in as Brian lead Mika back into town. Brian had even followed her to where the client lived at saying that he just wanted to make sure that she arrived safely. Which lead to where he is at now..
Waiting outside of a building with his back leaning against a wall with his eyes closed lost in his own thoughts. Popping his head out of Brian's white mane wide awake after napping pretty much the whole way here, Bolt was looking around curiously at their surroundings.
"So are we moving again?" Bolt asked quietly into Brian's ear.
"Yeah. Seeing how people got too interested in the cave we've been staying at, I think it'd be best if we looked for somewhere else to live." Brian answered quietly, and looked towards his green furred buddy who looked a little lost in thought too. "Whats the matter?" Brian asked softly.
"Um.. maybe.. we should join a guild? Like Mika said.." Bolt whispered, and felt Brian push away from the wall.
"No." Brian answered sternly crossing his arms over his broad chest.
"But Brian.. What if Mika said was true, and people will welcome us there? It could be fun.." Bolt whispered a little sadly. He just wanted his friend to be happy. He didn't mind living in the forests with Brian, and constantly traveling, because that was all he knew ever since Brian had hatched him from his egg about a year and a half ago, but the little green cat knew that his friend wasn't happy with his current life style..
"Perhaps." Brian trailed off silently cursing the young woman inside of the building for putting such thoughts into not only Bolts head, but his own. Sighing in defeat Brian bowed his head so that his bangs covered his eyes.
"Please? Can we at least give it a try? If we don't like it we can leave, and just do what we have always done." Bolt patted Brian's cheek cutely.
A few silent moments later Brian sighed again after making his decision. "Alright.. we'll give guild life a try. But if I feel like it isn't right for us then we leave." Brian spoke clearly, and felt Bolt hop out of his hair, and land into his arms to hug him with his small little arms.
"Oh! You're still here." Mika smiled in surprise at the sight of the Brian, and Bolt.
"Yeah.." Brian grumbled.
"We're going to join a guild!" Bolt cheered in happiness, and saw Mika clap her hands together happy for them.
"That's wonderful! I'm sure you two will love it." Mika smiled before a small frown came upon her pretty face. "So.. what one are you planning on joining?" Mika asked quietly.
Looking towards Brian with curious eyes, Bolt watched Brian take a small breath of air before opening his eyes, and smirking towards Mika. "Yours."
Registering the boys answer in her brain, Mika suddenly bounced forward, and grabbed him by the arm, while Bolt jumped up onto her head with a happy smile. "Then lets go! We can probably still make it to Magnolia before it gets too late, and we miss the final train for the day." Mika explained as they started quickly making their way through the tourist city of Shirotsume with a large happy smile on her face.
On the train bound for Magnolia, Mika, Brian, and Bolt had a train car completely to themselves seeing how it was nearly 11pm, and this being the last trip the train would be taking for the night. They had been on the train for around an hour now, and only simple short conversations were held in the train car. Seeing how Brian said that he wanted to join Fairy Tail, Mika decided that she would be the first one to welcome him there, and perhaps get to know him better.
'He really isn't a bad guy like Bolt said earlier today.. Just a little grumpy at times.' Mika giggled at the thought.
"What?" Brian asked with a pointed look, with his emerald colored eyes demanding an answer from her.
"Nothing really.." Mika trailed off with a smile as she pet Bolt's head lovingly making him purr. "It's just.. I'm surprised you're wanting to join Fairy Tail is all." Mika continued to smile.
"I'm doing this more for Bolt, than myself." Brian answered looking away from the woman in front of him, and out of the train's window.
"That's very sweet of you.." Mika smiled as she looked down towards the little cat sleeping on her lap.
"So tell me, is there anyone in you're guild I should look out for?" Brian asked looking away from the window.
Thinking about the boy's question for a few moments Mika looked back towards him. "Um.. not really. I mean.. you're really strong.. so I don't think you'll have much to worry about when it comes to fitting in." Mika explained with a quiet tone.
Noticing the hint of sadness behind the pretty girls voice Brian pushed to know why such sadness was there in the first place. "Why did you all of a sudden sound so sad?" Brian asked seriously.
"Oh.. well.. it's nothing." Mika tried to brave a smile in front of the admittedly cute boy in front of her.
"You can tell me ya know. It's not like we're exactly strangers at this point." Brian said quietly, and saw Mika wracking her brain to determine if she should answer honestly, or not.
"Well.. you see.. I'm not very good with my magic.. so I'm often teased, and made fun of by the others because of it.." Mika eyes felt as if they were about to start watering up.
"You're own guild members?" Brian asked with an edge in his voice.
"Mhmm.. but it's okay. There are others who are my friends, and support me even though I'm not strong like the everyone else." Mika smiled sadly.
"What kind of magic do you use?" Brian pressed for more information.
"Um.. I use wind magic." Mika answered quietly.
"Really?" Brian asked tilting his head to the side. By all accounts he's ever heard of when it came to wind mage's, they were all powerful in their own rights.
"Yes.. however I haven't been able to get the hang of it besides a couple simple spells, which are more for defense than anything.." Mika explained with a sigh following afterwards.
"People don't need to be super powerful in order to make a difference Mika.. It's what you do with what you have at you're disposal to help others that matters." Brian said quietly.
Her eyes widened after hearing how sincere Brian had sounded after trying to cheer her up, and to say it didn't make her smile would be an outright lie. "Thank you.." Mika whispered.
"So how much longer are we going to be on here for until we get to Magnolia?" Brian asked simply.
"Not too much longer now. Maybe about 20 minutes." Mika answered as she looked down to her lap, and watched Bolt roll over onto his back still asleep. "So you said you used a demonic type of magic right?" Mika asked curious to find out more about the boy sitting in front of her.
"Yes.. I'm a Lightning Demon Slayer." Brian answered simply holding his hand out pushing a small amount of magic into his palm creating small arcs of green, and black lightning that danced around for a moment before fading away.
"It's very pretty." Mika smiled. "Is you're magic similar to Dragon Slayer Magic? A boy named Natsu uses magic like that in the guild." Mika asked.
"I believe it is, however instead of being meant to slay dragons, my magic is meant to slay demons." Brian explained.
"So.. how did you get such a powerful magic.. if you don't mind me asking?" Mika asked.
"I don't mind." Brian shrugged before pulling out his beloved book from his bag and showed her it. "This ancient tome gave me the clues I needed to learn the mechanics of it, but without a teacher who completely knows the workings of the magic, I had to figure it all out on my own." Brian explained putting his book back.
"That's amazing.." Mika whispered in awe.
"Thanks." Brian nodded. "You know.. I could probably help you with you're wind magic." Brian offered quietly.
"Really? You'd be willing to help me?" Mika asked desperate to know if he was just teasing her or serious.
"Sure. It's an elemental magic like my own, so I don't think it'd be that hard to help you out with whatever you're having trouble with." Brian shrugged, and watched Mika calmly pick up Bolt from her lap, and set him down beside her.
"Thank you so much!" Mika squealed as she suddenly rocketed forward hugging Brian who was frozen completely stiff at the unfamiliar feeling of human contact.
Doing as any male would given his situation he just slowly reached around the woman's back, and patted her back a few times with an uneasy smile on his face. "You're welcome?" Brian chuckled as Mika moved away from him with a small blush on her face as she returned to her seat.
Stepping off of the train platform, Brian looked around at the sight of the city of Magnolia in the middle of the summer night trying to take it all in.
"It's pretty big." Brian commented as he followed Mika who had still yet to pass Bolt back to him.
"Mhmm." Mika looked back towards him with her eyes closed, and a smile on her face as she headed towards Fairy Hills, but froze as she realized something.
"What is it?" Brian asked with a raised eyebrow curious as to why she stopped so suddenly.
"Um.. well.. Were I live there's a no boys allowed policy.." Mika trailed off sadly after forgetting about helping Brian, and Bolt find a place to stay for the night.
"It's no big deal. I'll figure something out." Brian said not worried about it.
"But it gets cold at night, you'll freeze." Mika trailed off in worry as they continued on towards the female dormitories.
"It's fine Mika.. I've been sleeping outside for quite a while now. I'm pretty used to it." Brian waved off her concern.
"If you say so.." Mika trailed off looking down at Bolt who was still napping away in her arms, and giggled at the sight of the cat wiggling around in his sleep.
"This it?" Brian asked after 10 minutes of walking through the large city.
"Mhmm." Mika nodded her head as she turned around towards Brian, and held a still soundly sleeping Bolt out towards him.
"Why don't you take him for the night. He seems awfully content with you." Brian said with narrowed eyes pointed towards Bolt's sleeping form, which made Mika giggle.
"Are you sure?" Mika asked quietly, not wanting to take his friend away from him. Even if it was just for one night.
"Yeah, it's fine. I'll go find a tree, or something." Brian said as he turned around, and waved over his shoulder. "See ya tomorrow Mika."
"Good night Brian." Mika said softly while turning back around, and entering the building while cradling Bolt close to her with a smile slowly gracing her lips as she thought about her day.
'It wasn't such a bad day after all.' Mika smiled happily as she looked back down at Bolt who started to drool out the side of his open mouth, making her giggle quietly at the sight of such the small creatures cuteness.
