I sat on my white couch, upsidedown. My feet were propped up on the wall, my head hanging off the couch. In my left hand was a book. In my right and was a chocolate bar. It only had one bite missing. I was chilling in my new apartment, flicking my ears. Oh, i forgot to mention on minor detail, I had cat ears and a cat tail... but i was human. People always teased me when i was little. I ran away because i was an orphan. I found a man in the forest. He was calming to me. He took me in and raised. Said man taught me magic. God slaying magic. He was a god.
He taught me healing, control of the lifecycle of plants, and how to speak to animals. Although he loved me like a father, i was never strong enough to learn much else. He told me it was okay, that I'd be able to help people without vilolence. I smiled and kept my character. I was a shy child, embaressed a lot, weak physicaly but my 'dad' always told me that y heart and determination were strong enough to make up for it. I learned spells that would help me defend myslef but i was taught never to go on offense.
I was snapped out of my thinking when a knock sounded at my door. I flicked my ears before getting up. I set the book down and took one last bite of my chocolate bar before opening the door.
"Hello?"
"Hi!", a cheery blonde said. "I heared you just moved in and i wanted to be friendly so i came over to meet you. I'm Lucy!" I smiled softly at her. "Do you need anything?" I looked behind me at what little i had right now. I sweatdropped.
"Um... a lot..." I had a couch, a little stand next to it, a lamp on that stand, a coffe table in front of the couch, a few outfits... thats all.
She smiled kindly and asked,"What do you need?"
I turned to look at her,"A bed, more clothes, a micorave, a fidge, oven, cups, plates, bowls, silverware, bathroom supplies... I think thats all." It was her turn to sweatdrop.
"You can eat with me tonight and tomorrow i can help you get all those,"she offered.
"Thanks!", i grinned at her. She invited me into her apartment across the hall. I shut my door and followed her. She led me into a kitchen. When we got in there, it wasnt something i expected to see. A salomon haired boy and a blue cat eating all of Lucy's food.
"NATSU!", she yelled.
He looked up, pausing his eating and replied,"Hi Luce!"
I stared at the cat, and i stared at me before i screamed,"Kawii!" I picked it up and hugged it. It took me a moment to realized that the other two people were looking at me and i set the cat back down. "S-Sorry...", I stuttered. My tail wave behind me. I had a small hole that it fit through in my blue shorts. My baggy white t-shirt matched with my white ears and tail and my silver hair.
"Your like a cat?!", the salomon haired boy, who I presume is Natsu, exclaimed.
I thought about it before answering, "Well i have a tail and ears... other than that im normal." Before the conversation went any further, Lucy grabbed my hand pulling me away.
"When i get home Natsu, you and Happy better be gone!", she shouted. I followed behind my newest friend, not asking questions as to where we were going. When we stopped, we were at a resturant that smelled great. She led me in and we got seated."I never got your name!", she told me.
"Gina Sadorthian."
"Well Gina, its nice to officialy meet you." We ordered and ate our food. When the chack came, we both reached for it. "Let me pay. I promised you food," Lucy smiled.
"Well i would have had to buy food if it weren't for you anyways so i can pay," I argued. We gave reasons why we should pay for it and ended up splitting it 50/50. Lucy seemed satisfied and i just followed. I smiled. I didnt know why but Lucy's just the kind of person that made me smile. I knew so little about her but she did it.
We got back to the apartment complex and she said, "Goodnight!" I repeated this phrase to her and entered my apartment. I loooked around. I pulled a thin blanket from my bag and flopped onto the couch.
"Goodnight dad, whereever you are...", i whispered softly.
My dad raised me till i was 8. Then he went missing. I was scared, i cried, and i searched for him. After a while, i just kinda gave up. He didnt want me to find him. Maybe its cause i wasnt strong enough for him? I shook my head and closed my eyes. I fell asleep.
Before long, i awoke, my body hot, my heart racing. 'Just a bad dream, no harm' I couldnt recal the dream, i just remembered panick. I sighed and rolled over on the couch. I closed my eyes in the attempts to catch some sleep. No luck. I got up and strolled to my kitchen. I cupped water in my hands and drank it. When I had a few handfuls, I went back to the couch and tried to sleep once more. With the same resaults. I sighd and jumped out my window to go on a walk. There was barely anyone on the streets right now. Svae for the people heading home from a bar. I walked around aimlessly. Eventualy, i felt someone following me. I turn to see three men, covered in the shadow of night.
"Hey little kitty," flirted one. The other two stayed silent. Maybe he was like their boss?
"Hello!", i smiled kindly. He laughed.
"Wanna show me a good time?"
I thought for a moment,"Well im new so i dont know any of the good area's yet but a few blocks from here is a good resturant if your hungry." I blinked. They all started laughing. I tilted my head.
One of the silent men then stated,"She's innocent then." They all looked smug. I was so lost.
"Of course im innocent, im not evil... Which is making me feel like you are..." I started to feel uneasy. I turned to flee but they were fast. They dragged me into a dark ally, muffling my screams with their hand. I struggled and squirmed, doing my best to break free. 'Im weak... Too weak...' i thought to myself. I was easily pinned onto the ground. Before this got any further, a man came strolling towards us.
"You shouldnt pick on a girl," said the fourth starger, in a bored tone. Two of my attackers got up to kick some ass but it was their asses handed to them.
"Lightning dragon roar!", yelled the stranger. The third man gut up and attacked. They seemed evenly matched. Both landed attacks and both dodged. Eventualy, the dragon slayer started getting th upper hand. I just stared in awe at their streangth. When the third attack fell unconsious, the man turned to me.
"T-Thanks,"I stammered.
"Just watch yourself next time." I nodded. "Do you use magic?"
"Yea..."
He looked serious but laughed, commenting, "A pipsqueak like you has magic?" I glared at him. What a jerk. And to think that he saved me out of all people in this town. "Why didnt you defend yourself?" I glanced at my feet, my face heating up.
"Cause i cant."
"Hmm?"
"I cant defend myself!" I yelled, but it wasnt a yell. It was a little quieter. "Im not strong enough." He looked at me thoughtfully.
"What type of magic do you use?"
I doubtfully replied,"Im the God slayer of the earth." He continued to laugh. "Hey!"
"Your a slayer? And a god slayer at that?! Thats hard to believe," he chuckled.
"Well believe it. I may not be strong or look storng but im just the oppostie of your strong. My god taught me how to heal. He taught me what he wanted. He didnt like vilolence so i wasnt taught to fight,"I explained quickly. "Im Gina."
He was still chuckling and replied,"Laxus." I've heared that name before. He's popular somewhere. But where? I srugged and bowed.
"Thankyou for helping me! I owe you one!" When i lifted my head, he was watching me, amused.
"You're a cat?" I shake my head. "Then what are you?"
"A human with cat traits."
He nodded and asked,"Since you owe me, wanna repay me right now?" I nodded. "How 'bout a kiss?"
"EHHH?!"
"Sheeesh. Be quiet!", he hissed. "I was joking. Your to short anyways." I started to protest but he just turned and left. How rude! I blew a peice of hair from my eyes in anoyance and ran home. I was careful, not wanting to get tricked again. I jumped up into my window. Closing it behind me, I attempted to fall asleep. Thankfully, sleep welcomed me.
