Fairy Tail: Eternal Adventure, Chapter 1

Facing the reality...

The story begins with the man named Mark. Although a good friend and the best in his class, Mark's mind has always been on cloud 9. He always wanted to visit anime world, filled with joy, freedom and respect unlike the real world, where nobody respected his hard work. By watching Fairy Tail, one of the most popular animes in the world, he just couldn't face the fact that he lives in the real world, far away from anime that seemed so beautiful. This led him to a deep depression about himself, thinking he is worthless and not seeing any point in his boring life: -´Who am I? What's my point in this boring world? I don't want to do anything. There's just no point in this misearable life. Even if I somehow succeed in my life, which I doubt, why would I care when it's just another limit in my life. No, I don't want any more limits in my life. I want to explore, to know more, to see the beautiful anime world, where people will appreciate my efforts.´

And from then, Mark was not the man everybody knew he was. He changed. He became introverted, alone and unsociable. Every day was presenting another suffering and torture for him. Ultimately, he planned to commit a suicide, not seeing any bright side in his life, despite his success in school which wasn't anymore important for him. Before his suicide, he went to the condemned part of the town to let it all out and to see how miserable he actually is. He was crying for hours, alone and sad. He shouted sadly: -´Why life?! Why do you have to be so cruel?! All is wanted is to explore, to quench my thirst for curiosity. I would do anything to travel to the anime world! ANYTHING!´

Interestingly enough, a mysterious guy heard his entire monologue and came to him as soon as he finished it. He wanted to help him because he knew how:

-´Hello there. Is everything alright?´

- ´No, it's not alright. This is my last goodbye to my misearable life. I never saw a point in it.´

-´Are you crazy? Mark, you're only 17 years old. How could you know that your life will be worthless?´

-´Even if I become a millionaire, I won't be happy. I will never be happy. You want to know why? Because this world is nothing special and it never was. And how do you know how old I am? And how do you know my name?´

-´Because I'm not an ordinary human you think I am, Mark. My name is Augustus and I'm a last alchemist in this world.´

-´So, you know that I want to travel to anime world?´

-´Yes. I'm here to help you to make your wish come true, Mark.´

Mark's mood suddenly changed. He became happy and full of hope. He replied with blasting joy:

-´You will help me to travel to Fairy Tail world? Thank you, thank you, thank you. I can't thank you enough. I will do anything to help you help me.´

-´Good... because I'm going to need few ingredients for my Inter- Dimension Potion, Mark.´

-´Sure. I will do anything to go to the anime world. I promise I will find all the ingredients you need.´

-´Certainly. I will write it down for you. These ingredients are not easy to find and they require travel around the entire world to be found. There are totally 3 of them so take care. Unfortunately, you will need to wait to hit 18 to travel, Mark.´

-´Thank you. Give me the list and I promise I will, when I hit 18, find all those ingredients. Once again, thank you. I can't thank you enough for what you did.´

-´No problem, Mark. It's my job. When you find the ingredients, find me at the place I also wrote down on that list. Now goodbye and take care!´

Augustus mysteriously disappeared in the blink of an eye. Mark took the list which read:

´FYNBOS PLANT

KANGAROO'S FUR

WHITE ORCHID PETAL

FINAL DESTINATION: EASTER ISLAND COAST´

Mark waited to hit 18 with anticipation.
