Hello, my first Fairy Tail story. I hope I got everyone in character. I don't own Fairy Tail. Please review.
Loud angry music filled my ears as I stared out the open window of my dad's beat up Chevy. He was dropping me off at a boarding school in the middle of nowhere. Guilds Academy the top magic school in the world. A shrill shriek cut through my music. I sighed and pulled out my earbuds and shut off my I-pod as I turned in my seat to face the beautiful two year old baby girl in the back seat. She had short hair in two tiny pigtails that resembled mint chocolate chip ice cream, a light green color from our mother that I had never really talked to and who had only appeared long enough to drop my baby sister on my father's doorstep, and chocolate brown streaks here and there from whoever her father was, and bright blue eyes.
"What is it Kiya?" I asked. Kiya crooned and clapped her hands together. I grinned at her, but it kind of hurt. That was my only regret. Going to Guilds meant that I would be separated from Dad and Kiya. I sighed, turned back around in my seat, and placed my elbow on the windowsill my cheek resting against my fist.
"We can always turn back." My father spoke in a calm tone. He wasn't trying to patronize me or anything. He was giving me a way out, a chance to forget about the curse my mother had left me.
"No, I want to do this." I said surprised my voice didn't quiver. To say going to Guilds was something I had to do would place a heavier burden on my father's shoulders than I was ready for. It was Dad's turn to sigh.
"If you're sure about this I suppose there's nothing I can say to talk you out of it." Dad said pulling into an empty parking space.
"I'll go inside and finish the paperwork. You get your stuff and bring in Kiya so she can say her good-byes." Dad said. I nodded and slid out of the cab of the truck. I slipped my messenger bag's strap over my head and yanked my suitcase out of the bed before popping open the door to Kiya's seat. I reached across her and unbuckled her before pulling her out and resting her against my hip before using my other hip to bump the door close. I headed inside.
Unfortunately something caught Kiya's eyes as soon as I entered. She squirmed out of my arms and started after what appeared to be a black cat running on its back two legs with a sword strapped to its back. It didn't really take me off guard, after all this was a school of magic, but I still couldn't lose my little sister. Dad would kill me. "Kiya, wait up!" I shouted. I had long since dropped my suitcase and my bag was now bouncing almost painfully against my hip. I rounded a corner sharply and nearly lost my balance only to stop dead in my tracks. The cat was perched on some guy's shoulder and Kiya was trying to climb up the guy's leg to get to it. "Kiya!" I shouted slowly approaching the strange trio.
"Does the runt belong to you?" The guy asked pulling Kiya off of him and holding her by the back of her purple short sleeve onesie.
"She's my baby sister yes." I said holding my arms out. They guy let got. Kiya landed in my arms with a happy squeal.
"Any particular reason she's chasing my cat?" The guy growled. I pressed my lips together in a firm line to suppress the urge to sigh.
"Well clearly she's a two year old who has a thing for cats." I said glad I was able to keep the biting poison out of my voice.
"Yeah yeah!" Kiya said crawling out of my arms and onto my back.
"A thing for cats? She was trying to kill me." The cat protested. I lifted an eyebrow.
"The worse she would have done is pull on your tail and smother you with love. You have a freakin' sword. I think you're safe." I argued crossing my arms. I sighed and brought a hand to my forehead as I received a glare in reply. Morons. I turned. I had to get back to Dad and get my suitcase. After all once Dad filled out the paper work that was it. He and Kiya would be gone. I wouldn't see them again until the holidays and even than it wouldn't be for long.
"Hey! Where are you going?" someone asked me. I ignored them and headed back towards the office. Only problem? I was lost.
"Crap." I groaned hanging my head.
"Are you lost?" A girl voice asked me. I turned to see a blue haired girl smiling at me.
"Sadly." I grumbled shoving my hands deep into my pockets.
"I can show you around if you'd like." The girl told me.
"Kiya. Kiya." Kiya said happily. The girl smiled at her.
"Oh and who's this cutey?" The girl asked sweetly.
"She's my little sister Kiya. I'm Andi. Who are you?" I asked.
"The new student. Explains why you're lost. I'm Levy by the way.' She said leading the way. We stumbled upon my suitcase along the way. "So besides Kiya who are you with?" Levy asked.
"My da. He's just filling out some last minute paper work." I answered. "Kiya ran off so I had to go find her." I said as Levy opened her mouth, probably to ask why I wasn't with my dad. We made it to the office without any further mishaps.
"Where'd you run off to?" Dad asked not sounding worried. He knew I could look after myself and Kiya at the same time.
"Kiya saw a cat and decided she wanted to play tag." I said placing Kiya in Dad's arms.
"Did you catch 'em?" he asked her. Kiya pouted.
"I don't think he wanted to play." I spoke. Dad sighed.
"Alright squirt be careful." Dad told me reaching forward and ruffling my hair. I sighed.
"I will be I promise. I'll come home in one piece." I replied. Kiya shook her head looking between Dad and I before she threw her head back and let out an unnatural shrill scream.
"Hey, Kiya, sweetheart, I'll be home before you know it." I crooned trying to calm her down. She looked up at me with tears in her eyes.
"Promise?" She asked in that sweet innocent voice of hers holding out her pinky.
"From the bottom of my heart." I replied linking my own pinky with hers. I sighed as Dad and Kiya walked out. It hurt, but I'd get over it. A hand on my shoulder surprised me out of my thoughts and made me jump about two feet in the air.
"Come on, I grabbed your paper work. I'll show you to your room after all we wouldn't want you getting lost again." Levy said. I nodded and swiped an arm over my eyes glad no tears had fallen. Levy and I were silent as we walked to my room. Here we are. Room two-oh-three." Levy said she opened the door and handed me my paper work.
"Thanks." I told her before turning and coming face to face with my roommate. The guy with the cat. Oh great. Why did I have the sudden feeling I was screwed.
