It's been 11 years since Natsu and many members of Fairy Tail died trying to defeat Acnologia. Ever since then Fairy Tail has been a shell of its old self.
Laxus managed to live threw that terrible day along with Lucy and Gray. Makarov the former guild leader died 2 years after Fairy Tail killed Acnologia due to a broken heart after seeing so many of his children being murder.
Fairy Tail dropped down to the weakest guild in Magnolia. Now the only thing the guild is known for is once having the greatest dragon slayer in history, Natsu Dragneel.
But that was all about to change because 3 dragon slayers were heading to Fairy Tail to hopefully join. They were Marukosu Miramontes a metal dragon slayer,Misheru Marutinesu an ice dragon slayer, and Irene Flores a fire dragon slayer.Marukosu is 12,Irene is 11,and Misheru is 11. As they all arrived at the Fairy Tail guild hall they saw Laxus blasting bolts of lightning at cardboard cut outs of Acnologia. Laxus changed over the years. He now wears a red ripped up coat in memory of Natsu.
Laxus seen them all arriving. "What do you brats want?" Laxus asked them not bothering to look at them. Marukosu walked up. "We would like to join Fairy Tail." "Just because my old gramps let kids like you join, doesn't mean I will." "Now come on just give the kids a shot." An unfamiliar voice said as the person walked out of the guild hall.
Lucy walked up to them. She no longer carried any keys after all of her celestial spirits died in the fight versus Acnologia. She now is a second generation shadow dragon slayer. she now wears a pair of black ripped pants, a black crop top, and a black cloak.
"So how about we test their strengths first." "Fine. Get ready to fight you little brats." They all got into a battle stance. "I'll handle this alone." "That's fine with me." Lucy stepped back to watch. "So which one of you brats are gonna attack first. Misheru stepped up . "Ice dragon roar." "Lighting dragon armor." The roar hit him head on. When the ice cleared Laxus was gone. They all turned back to see him. He swung his fist at Misheru. "Iron dragon hard fist!" Marukosu clashed fist with Laxus. "Fire dragon iron fist!" Irene hit Laxus square in the chest. Laxus didn't move at all. "Ice dragon cannon!" Misheru shot a ball of ice at Laxus and it hit him in the face but he still didn't move. "Iron dragon mace!" Marukosu swung his mace at Laxus and hit him in the ribs. Laxus just looked at all of them. "Lighting dragon shock wave." A giant shock of electricity went through all of them knocking them unconscious. "I think we're done here."
Laxus and Lucy saw potential in the kids. Gray and Lucy carried them to the inferior while Laxus continued to train.
