Chapter 1: Joining the Guild/Reunion!
It was a beautiful morning in the lush city of Magnolia, Fiore. People were walking through the streets trying to get to their desired destinations. Among these people was a young man. He wore a white muscle shirt with black pants and black boots along with a black hooded duster coat that reached to his ankles. The hood covered his head and he wore a cloth around the lower half of his face so the only visible thing about his features were his gray eyes.
'It should be some where around here.' thought the young man as he continued walking through the city. Soon he came upon a large building and grinned under his mask.
"Here it is." said the young man. "Fairy Tail." As he said this, he looked up at the symbol of the Fairy Tail Guild painted on the building. He then proceeded inside.
-Meanwhile-
Everyone in the guild hall were their usual selves. Natsu and Gray were butting heads and brawling as usual, Erza was having strawberry cheese cake, Lucy and Mira were talking girl talk, Wendy was playing with Happy and Carla and Elfman was talking about manly things with Lisanna. However, as Mira and Lucy were talking, the bartender noticed Erza was eating her strawberry cheese cake a little less enthusiastically than usual.
"Something on your mind, Erza?" asked Mira drawing the attention of the Titania. Erza looked at Mira in surprise before shaking her head.
"It's nothing." said Erza.
"Is it Jellal?" asked Lucy. Erza shook her head.
"No, it's not him." said Erza. "It's someone else." Both Mira and Lucy looked at Erza with questioning looks.
"Who?" they asked in unison. Erza looked at them in surprise before sighing in defeat as she realized she wasn't getting out of this.
"It's the anniversary...of the day he disappeared." said Erza.
"The day who disappeared, Erza?" asked Lucy.
"I had a friend before I was taken prisoner and forced to help build the Tower of Heaven. Someone before I met Jellal and the others. He and I would always play together and he would get into fights with other kids sorta like how Natsu always gets into fights with Gray. And just like with those two, I would put him in his place. He always knew how to put a smile on my face, or make me laugh." said Erza as she smiled fondly as memories of that boy flooded back to her mind. However, the smile disappeared as quickly as it appeared.
"But one day, he just...disappeared. I never saw him again." said Erza. Mira and Lucy looked at Erza with sadden looks.
"Oh, Erza..." said Mira. "I'm sorry." Lucy nodded her head.
"Yeah, we didn't mean to make you dig up old memories that should've stayed buried." said Lucy. Erza shook her head as she waved her hand dismissively.
"It doesn't matter. That was a long time ago. About fifteen years ago, I think." said Erza. However, she narrowed a glare at the two female mages.
"This doesn't go past here! Understand?" said Erza in a threatening tone of voice. Lucy immediately nodded her head.
"A-Aye, sir." said Lucy as she quoted Happy while Mira just giggled and nodded her head. Erza nodded her head.
"G-." said Erza.
"WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU!" shouted Natsu, interrupting Erza and causing everyone to look at him to see he was looking toward the door. Everyone looked toward the door to see a hooded figure standing there looking at everyone.
-Earlier-
The young man walked through the door into the guild and immediately took notice of the sound of fighting coming from a nearby room. Walking toward the door, he reached out and pushed it open only to immediately duck under a chair thrown in his direction. He looked at everyone as they were brawling, drinking, laughing and singing.
"Just as rowdy as I've heard." the young man mumbled to himself as he looked around at all the members of Fairy Tail. As he looked around, his gray eyes fell on the Titania as she conversed with Lucy and Mira. His eyes widened in surprise.
'That's...!' thought the young man.
"WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU!" shouted a voice causing the young man to look toward the source only to see Natsu looking at him with his fist about to connect with Gray's face.
-Present-
Everyone was staring at the young man with curiosity. The young man cleared his throat before speaking.
"Is Makarov Dryar here?" asked the young man. Just then, a short old man walked out of the crowd.
"That would be me." said the old man as the young man looked down at him with surprise evident in his eyes. "What? Were you expecting someone taller?" The young man scratched the back of his head nervously.
"Sorry." the young man apologized. Makarov just chuckled.
"Ah, don't worry about it, but what exactly do you want from me?" said Makarov. The young man dropped his hand to his side.
"I wish to join Fairy Tail." said the young man. He could hear the surprised murmurs from the other members. Makarov stroked his chin as he nodded his head.
"I see. What is your name and what magic do you use?" asked Makarov.
"I'll tell you my name later. As for my magic, I'd like to demonstrate it in a battle." said the young man. Makarov nodded his head.
"And who would you like for your opponent?" asked Makarov. The young man looked around at the other guild members before his eyes fell on one Erza Scarlet. He then pointed at the Requip mage.
"Her." said the young man. Everyone looked toward the Titania before going wide eyed.
"Young man, are you sure about that? Erza here is an S-class mage." said Makarov. The young man nodded his head.
"I'm sure. If I beat her, then I want to be made an S-class mage as well." said the young man as he held out his hand to Makarov. "Is that acceptable?" The guild master thought it over before extending his hand and shaking the young man's hand.
"Very well." said Makarov. "But after the fight you will have to tell me your name." Erza then approached the young man and found she had to look up slightly to meet his eyes.
"You'd best be prepared because I will not go easy." said Erza with a stern look. The young man chuckled.
"I wouldn't want it any other way." said the young man. Makarov then looked toward the rest of the guild members.
"The fight will take place in the training grounds! Let's go everyone!" said Makarov as he and the rest of the guild members made their way to the training grounds.
-Training grounds-
Everyone was gathered in the training grounds with anticipation of the fight between Erza and the mystery guy who challenged her. Erza stood a few feet away from the young man as she watched him.
'I don't know why, but something doesn't feel right. This guy comes to Fairy Tail requesting to join on the anniversary of the day he disappeared? It seems like a coincidence, but it...doesn't feel like one.' thought Erza. The young man watched Erza before chuckling.
"Heheheh, judging by the look on your face, I'd say you have a lot of questions." said the young man. "Don't worry. I promise to answer all of your questions to the best of my abilities once the fight is over." Makarov then cleared his throat gaining the attention of everyone there.
"This match is between Fairy Tail's S-class mage Erza Scarlet and the newcomer who wishes to join! Should he win, not only will he be allowed in the guild, but he will also be given the rank of S-class mage as well!" said Makarov. "Let the match...BEGIN!" Erza immediately requipped a sword in her right hand, opting to stay in her Heart Kruez armor for now, before rushing at the young man and swinging her blade down on him.
The young man, however, held up his right hand as a sword appeared in it and blocked the attack. The young man's sword had a white handle and hand guard, but the blade was black as night. Erza looked at the sword with wide eyes.
'He can use Requip magic?!' thought Erza. The young man chuckled.
"Heheheh, pay attention. If you don't..." said the young man before using his physical strength to force Erza back causing her breastplate to crack when the blunt of the sword struck it. "...it'll get you killed." Erza looked at her breastplate in shock before glaring at the young man. She then rushed at the young man and swung her sword at him, but he just put his left hand in his pocket and blocked the attack. Erza quickly threw in a few more strikes, but the young man blocked them all.
-With Natsu and the others-
"The guy's pretty good to be keeping up with Erza." said Wendy. Natsu scoffed.
"HA, Erza ain't even trying yet! Why else would she still be in her Heart Kruez armor?" said Natsu.
"But he managed to crack Erza's breastplate." said Lucy. Natsu chuckled.
"Lucky shot. That, or Erza let him get that shot to get him overconfident." said Natsu. Gray, however, wasn't convinced.
"Regardless, she knows not to underestimate her opponent no matter how weak they seem." said Gray, who was only wearing his boxers.
"GRAY, YOUR CLOTHES!" shouted Lucy as she covered Wendy's eyes. Gray looked down at himself before going wide eyed.
"WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING!" shouted Gray as he got up and ran off to get some clothes, leaving behind a shocked Lucy, a confused Wendy and a laughing Natsu.
-With Erza and the young man-
Erza continued her assault on the young man, swinging her sword at him, but he would block each of her attacks.
"Is this all the Queen of the Fairies has to offer?" asked the young man as he blocked another strike. "C'mon, I know you can do better." Erza growled in irritation at the taunt before stepping back. She then requipped into her Heaven's Wheel armor. Upon noticing her gifted chest, the young man's cheeks turned red. He was glad he was wearing that mask at the time.
'Whoa, she DEFINITELY grew up!' thought the young man before shaking his head to get rid of the dirty thoughts. 'Focus!'
"I'm just getting started." said Erza before the metal wings on her back extended. They then shot out thousands of swords at the young man. The young man quickly held up his sword like he was gonna block it. As the swords came down on him, they caused an explosion clouding the young mage from sight. Erza smirked as she turned away from the dust cloud.
"It's over." said Erza as she started walking away.
"What do you mean it's over?" asked a voice causing Erza to stop and turn back to the dust cloud only for her eyes to widen in shock. The dust cloud cleared revealing the young man with his left arm outstretched in front of him with a dark barrier surrounding him. The barrier then dissipated.
"I'm not finished yet." said the young man. "But first..." As he said this, a purple magic circle appeared underneath his feet.
"Dark Dragon's barrier!" said the young man before a dark barrier appeared around him and Erza.
-With Natsu and the gang-
Team Natsu's eyes were wide with shock as was everyone who was watching.
"He's a...Dragon Slayer?" asked Lucy. Natsu couldn't believe his eyes. He knew that himself, Wendy and Gajeel were Dragon Slayers, but he couldn't believe this guy was one. After finding out that Laxus wasn't a true Dragon Slayer, he figured that he, Gajeel and Wendy were the only Dragon Slayers in Fairy Tail.
-With Erza and the young man-
Erza looked at the barrier before glaring at the young man. "What did you do? What is this barrier?" asked Erza.
"It's a special barrier that only I can create. It's part of my Dragon Slayer magic." said the young man. "But that's not all." As he said this, a white magic circle appeared underneath him.
"Light Dragon's seal!" said the young man.
-With Makarov-
Makarov was watching with intrigue when he suddenly felt weaker. "Master Makarov?" asked Mirajane who was sitting next to him and noticed he seemed ill.
'W-what's wrong with...me? I feel like I've been completely drained of power.' thought Makarov. He then looked at his right hand and noticed a strange glowing seal on it causing his eyes to widen.
'A suppression seal?!' thought Makarov. 'But how?' He then looked down at the young man before his eyes widened in realization.
'When we shook hands! He must've known that I'm the only one in the guild besides Gildarts and Laxus that can break through that barrier he created around himself and Erza. He doesn't want their fight interrupted.' thought Makarov.
-With Erza and the young man-
As the magic circle disappeared, Erza glared at the young man. "What did you just do?" asked Erza. The young man chuckled.
"Heheheh, just making sure we aren't interrupted." said the young man. "I have two types of Dragon Slayer magic. Light and Dark. The barrier is constructed from my Dark Dragon Slayer magic while my Light Dragon Slayer magic activated a seal that suppresses magic power. This barrier is meant to keep everyone out there safe while the seal will keep your master from interfering." Erza's eyes widened in surprise before she took a quick glance at Makarov to see that he did indeed look weaker as compared to earlier. She then glared at the young man.
"Don't worry. The seal only prevents him from accessing his magic. That's all it does, I promise." said the young man. A second sword appeared in Erza's left hand before she rushed at the young man and swung her right handed sword. The young man blocked the attack before jumping back to avoid the second sword Erza swung at him with.
"Surely you can do better than that, Lil Erza." said the young man. Erza's eyes widened is shock at being called "Lil Erza." Her shocked expression then changed to a glare as she pointed her left handed sword at the young man.
"Who are you?! Only one person ever called me that!" said Erza.
"Really? Ya know, now that you mention that, I do remember running into someone causing trouble in a nearby town a couple years back. Kept going on and on about how he was gonna get stronger than Lil Erza and reunite with her soon. Fool was overconfident. I took him down easily." said the young man. Erza's eyes widened in shock at this news.
"You...what?" asked Erza. The young man nodded his head.
"Yeah, a shame, too. He had a lot of potential, but he just wouldn't stay down. I had no choice." said the young man. Erza gritted her teeth as a tear escaped her left eye.
"You..." said Erza gaining the young man's attention as memories of a boy with black spiky hair, gray eyes and a big grin flashed through her mind. "...How dare you!" Suddenly, Erza launched herself at the young man and swung her right handed sword down on him. The young man blocked the attack before jumping back as Erza swiped at him with her left handed sword.
"I WANTED TO MEET HIM AGAIN AND BECAUSE OF YOU I'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO!" screamed Erza as she requipped into her Fairy Tail Farewell armor and was wielding a large double-bladed spear. She then ran at him. The young man pulled the mask down revealing his mouth as he took a deep breath.
"Dark Dragon's Roar!" said the young man as he blew a swirling stream of black fire at Erza. The Titania, however, stopped and threw the spear at the young man before rolling out of the way of the black flames. The young man's eyes widened as the spear came at him fast.
'SHIT!' thought the young man. He quickly leaned back to try and avoid the spear, but it caught his hood and ripped it open causing him to fall on his back. Erza looked at the fallen young man and smirked with satisfaction that he was finally down. However, he then sat up with his hand covering his face revealing a mop of long black spiky hair that reached to between his shoulder blades.
"Not bad." said the young man. "You actually managed to scathe me." He then dropped his hand causing Erza's eyes to widen in shock. He had a cut on his forehead where the spear grazed him and blood ran down the left side of his face. He had his left eye closed to keep blood from getting in it.
"Y-you...?!" said Erza as she recognized the young man as her friend who had disappeared 15 years ago. ? stood up as he grinned.
"Long time, no see! I see you've done well for yourself, Erza." said ?. He then smirked as he ripped the black coat off revealing his arms which had the right sized muscles for his age. He also had six-pack abs that were showing through the shirt. All the girls watching were either blushing, drooling, or both (and a certain blonde Celestial mage was no exception.) ? chuckled.
"Focus! We can catch up later and I'll explain everything! I don't want you slacking when I just got you to actually start trying!" said ? as he requipped into a suit of black armor. He then ran at Erza and swung his sword down on the Titania. Snapping from her daze, Erza recalled her spear and blocked ?'s attack. Erza then forced ? back before thrusting her spear forward and striking him in the chest. However, she was surprised to find that her spear didn't even leave a scratch on the breastplate. ? backed away before smirking.
"Like it? I call it my "Ultima armor."" said ? as knocked on the breastplate causing a resounding clanging sound. "It's made from pure Obsidian. Hard to find and even harder to crack." ?'s grin fell, however, as he held his left hand out and a gray magic circle appeared in front of him.
"Time to end this." said ?. "Omega Dragon Secret Technique: Raining Destructor!" A large gray beam of magical energy shot forward at Erza. The Titania quickly requipped her Adamantine armor and used the large arm guards on her arms to form a shield. The beam struck the shield causing the ground to crack and dust to be kicked up. The beam soon dissipated before ? became worried.
'OH MAN, I DIDN'T MEAN TO PUT THAT MUCH POWER INTO IT! FUCK!' thought ?. When the dust cleared, Erza was revealed to still be standing, but the shield was cracked and damaged as well as the rest of the armor. ? walked toward Erza as he requipped back into his normal clothing. Stopping in front of her, he held out his left hand as a white magic circle appeared underneath Erza.
"Light Dragon's Healing Essence!" said ? as Erza was enveloped by a white aura that made all her wounds disappear. Erza looked at ? in surprise. ? just grinned.
"I win." said ? as he extended his hand to her. "I told ya I'd surpass you some day, Lil Erza." Erza's eyes widened as she recalled him saying something similar.
-Flashback-
A younger Erza Scarlet and ? were standing by an abandoned building, having just left after having a little match against each other.
"Just you wait, Lil Erza. Some day I'll surpass you!" said ?.
-Flashback end-
Erza smirked. "Yeah...you did..." said Erza as she took ?'s hand. "...Aaron."
-Later-
After being accepted into the guild, Mirajane had taken ?, now known as Aaron, to the back in the guild tavern to give him his Fairy Tail mark. Erza (Heart Kruez armor) was seated on one of the stools lightly tapping her foot on the ground as she waited for Aaron to emerge from the back.
"You okay, Erza?" asked a voice causing the Titania to turn to her left and see Lucy. Erza nodded her head.
"Y-yeah, I'm fine." said Erza. Lucy sat down next to Erza.
"You know, you can tell me what's wrong, Erza. We're friends." said Lucy as she placed a hand on Erza's shoulder. Erza looked at Lucy with a look of contemplation before sighing.
"I'm just...nervous." said Erza. Lucy gave Erza a look of confusion.
"Why are you nervous?" asked Lucy.
"I haven't spoken to Aaron in fifteen years." said Erza. "He and I aren't the same as back when we were four. I mean, you saw for yourself! He's far stronger than me! He's...not the same anymore. I mean, his personality is, but..." Erza trailed off as she looked back at the door that led into the back. Lucy giggled.
"Well, he wasn't gonna stay the same four year old you knew back then." said Lucy. Erza narrowed a playful glare at Lucy.
"I knew THAT!" said Erza before the two were thrown into a fit of giggles.
"Why are you two laughing?" asked a voice causing Erza and Lucy to stop and look toward the door to the back only for their eyes to widen in surprise and a blush to stain their cheeks. There stood Aaron wearing a long sleeved black vest with the left sleeve missing and it seemed to show off his developed muscles for his six pack was still slightly visible. The collar was high allowing his lower face to be hidden beneath it. Aaron gave them a questioning look when he noticed they weren't responding.
"What? Do I have something on my face?" asked Aaron. Erza was the first to recover as she shook her head.
"N-no, you're fine." said Erza. Aaron nodded his head before turning to look at Lucy who was still staring.
"I don't think we've been introduced. My name is Aaron Skyler." said Aaron as he held out his hand to Lucy. Snapping from her daze, Lucy's blush darkened as she grabbed his hand and shook it.
"Lucy Heartfilia." said Lucy. Aaron grinned.
"Nice to meet ya!" said Aaron. He then turned to face Erza.
"So where is your Fairy Tail mark, Aaron?" asked Erza. Aaron immediately unzipped his vest causing both girls to blush before moving the left side of the collar down revealing the Fairy Tail mark on the left side of his neck in black ink. He then rezipped his vest. Aaron then got a confused look.
"Why are you two blushing?" asked Aaron. "All I did was show you where my Fairy Tail mark is. It's nothing special." Erza immediately forced her blush down.
'Oh Aaron, you're still as oblivious as ever.' thought Erza as she shook her head with a small smile. "No reason. It's just a little warm in here is all." Aaron looked at them with a questioning look before shrugging his shoulders.
"Whatever." said Aaron before he hopped over the counter. "Think I'll go check this place out. I need to learn my way around here since I'm a member of Fairy Tail now." With that, Aaron walked off leaving a smirking Erza and a still blushing Lucy.
"So what do you two rate him at?" asked a voice causing Erza and Lucy to turn back to the counter to see a smiling Mirajane.
"He's an old friend, Mirajane. I don't have those feelings for him so I don't have a rating." said Erza. Mirajane then turned to Lucy who had turned back toward the direction Aaron had left.
"What about you, Lucy?" asked Mirajane. "On a scale of one to ten."
"Nine." Lucy said absentmindedly before catching what she said and blushed whilst covering her mouth. Mirajane grinned a chesire-like grin as Erza looked at her in mild surprise.
"Well, that settles that." said Mirajane whilst Erza chuckled and Lucy just slammed her head on the countertop.
-That evening-
Aaron stood on the roof of the Fairy Tail guild building while looking at the moon and the star filled sky.
"Eleven more months..." said Aaron. "I hope I'll be ready by then."
