Lace

Prologue

Written by: Miradeathnote

Once upon a time there was a vast Kingdom called Fiore. For hundreds of years Wizards, and Witches alike all came together in guilds. The most well known guild was Fairy Tail. Life there was peaceful, with the occasional destruction of some houses and wildlife. It was, simply put, home. One fateful day, all that changed.

A man by the name of Axel Laangrok was born. He was an only child, with a mother and a father. His father owned the guild Blew Lace. In Blue Lace were mostly bachelors looking for wives, thus starting the new ways. All across the globe thousands of guilds were getting into the practice of trading and collecting desperate girls. Axel didn't believe in the practice. He instead went into medicine.

Although his parents tried to per sway him, nothing changed. He wanted to find the cure for cancer. Yes, in this perfect world was still the gloom of cancer, AIDs, and imperfect DNA. However, with his special magic he not only created the cure, but gave away the cure for only 1 jewel. People celebrated, people praised his name. Until October 14, 2034. His mother had recently taken the medicine, guaranteeing her life extending to the age of 100. She also found out she was pregnant with a child. She was overjoyed, and so was Axel. When the baby was born everyone cried for joy. A baby girl, with sapphire eyes and root colored hair.

She was raised like any other child. She had toys, books, art crafts, and even 30 pets for her enjoyment. When she turned the age of thirteen she even got herself a permit. Life was amazing. The years went by and she turned 20. That's when she began to feel pain. First it was in her stomach. Occasional she would throw up her meals in the morning after having breakfast. She began to believe she was perhaps pregnant! No, a month later she began to feel a pain in her chest and developed a very wet cough. Not long after that she started coughing up blood. Some days blood would flow down her cheeks instead of tears. She hurt: She felt as though someone just kept stabbing her over and over again. That poor girl died at the age of 21. She wasn't the only one. All over the world men were dying at the age of 22, women were dying at the age of 21. All of them with the same symptoms, in the same order, and in the same time span.

Axel began to panic, creating medicines for every symptom that showed. However more and more began to die.

Blew Lace began business again. It boomed in fact. Not only were thirteen year olds taken to these tradeoffs, but mother's of three children would be sold. An already married women would be shared between men. It became a desperation. People were dropping dead in streets, some Wizards began to have children with no magic.

That is where our story begins.
