A/N: I have decided to rewrite this fanfic because it frankly needs to be. I have made terrible grammar mistakes, been too OCC and did not like some of my major plot points that affect the squeal. So welcome to the new readers and I hope the old readers prefer the new version. It should only take a few weeks to replace all the chapters.
Disclaimer: I don't own Fairy Tail
The sun beats heavily down on my back as I drag my feet towards Magnolia. I have been running for days on end hoping to make it before they found me.
Before they can get my keys. My celestial keys were sought after by some idiotic dark guild. They knew if they get my keys they control me. Especially the gold one studded with diamonds that dangled around my neck and thumbs against my chest with every labored step.
My feet pound the earth as I look behind me to see two mages hot on my tail. Knowing I could not escape I skid to a sudden stop and dive to the left. Rolling on my knees I disturb fresh earth and the heavy rich smell envelops my senses.
The mages trying to keep up with my sudden stop trip over each other. One of the men has brown hair and is slightly chubby cheeks and evil black eyes. His overweight body squashes his beanpole of a friend.
"GET OFF!" The bean pole screams. Unfortunately it comes of muffled and sets me off on a laughing fit. Tears leak out of my eyes as they argue about who was the bigger idiot. My sides ache with the combined strain of exhaustion and laughter When beanpole and chubs finally get disentangle I grab one my silver keys and prepare to summon my best friend.
"Open Gate of the Jaguar! James. " I yell as a brilliant light envelops the space in front of me and I stagger a bit in exhaustion.
When the light disappears I see Jamie standing there hands in his jeans pockets and navy blue t-shirt flapping in the wind. He turns to look at me a signature smirk plastered across his face, his thick black hair wild as he is. His golden eyes dance with excitement at the opportunity to pummel the idiotic mages.
"Hello Caroline! Are these men bothering you sweetie?" James asks in a innocent voice. I knew that voice someone may or may not die. Hiss eyes scan over my form and narrow dangerously.
"They are. Don't kill them, please." I pant as I try to catch my breath from all the running I have done.
"But that's no fun." He pouts and side steps a lung from bean pole.
"Stop messing around we have to make it to Magnolia before I pass out from exhaustion! Not to mention the fact that they are coming at you with knives. God if you get hurt I will won't be as nice to them!" I yell as my hands bunch at my sides in anger.
"Caroline you really need to learn to control your temper." he says as he neatly dodges a knife slash to the head. In retaliation he delivers a swift kick to bean poles abdomen sending him into a tree and knocking him unconscious.
Something very blue is knocked out of the highest branch and I hear a small scream escape it. My eyes widen in fear and I dive to catch the poor thing badly skinning my knees. Something soft lands into my arms and blink down enamored down at the world's cutest cat. I hear James shout in alarm as he scents my blood. He spins around completely forgetting Chubs.
"I'm fine Jamie! ...Pay attention to what you're doing!" I scream as Chubs stabs toward my kitty's heart. Jamie doges left and takes a glancing blow to his upper arm. My eyes widen in shock and anger.
"How dare someone hurt my kitten!" My inner voice screams in out rage. I glance to the small blue object in my lap and see a blue cat wearing a green backpack. His eyes are trained on Jamie who is fading fast. My magic isn't holding up his strength. The pull back to the spirit world is strong. But he shakes it off and stands up strong again feeding of the energy my anger brought out. My blue green eyes turn slightly purple in my rage. "Somebody's going to pay for this." I growl with a tight down at the obviously scared cat I place him on the ground and pat his head. "You should stay here. I have to go help."
"Okay" was his soft reply. Well apparently he talks but that's for another time. I roll my neck and feel it crack.
I turn towards Chubs. The man who hurt my kitty. My eyes completely purple now I call out with an angry roar "HEY CHUBS GET AWAY FROM MY KITTY!"
"I'm not a kitty! How many freaking time do I have to tell you!" James screams as he takes a knife slash across his cheek and golden blood splatters on the ground.
Unfortunately I'm not able to respond to that because a little voice in my head screams "he hurt my kitten he must die!"
No I'm not crazy, I have always had the voice a mountain lion in my head. And for some odd reason the voice and I have adopted James as our kitten and anyone "who hurts our kitten must die". Unfortunately it's genetic and all my siblings and I have a voice of a mountain lion in our heads. Thank goodness it's not the same voice for all of us, that would be annoying.
Mentally sighing, I turn and blast a sleep spell at Chubs knocking him out cold. I tried to use the minimum amount of magic but he went through a few trees and deep purple magic evaporates around him. Somehow, Jamie takes this as a bad thing and after making sure I didn't kill him proceeds to scream at me.
"Caroline, what were you thinking you could killed him! You know your dream magic is unstable! I was fine all by myself! You could have seriously hurt him or sent yourself into a coma or something!"
"Oh please, I was only in one coma for a week and that was a year ago." I glance over to Chubs and assess the damage. "He is fine, he'll wake up in a day or two.
"And you mister are hurt and need to go home!" I say as I pluck his key from my belt and prepare to send him home for a well deserved rest.
"I'm not done talking to yo..." He yells as I send him back to the spirit world. Finally calm now that my kitty is out of danger my eyes return to their normal blue green shade.
Smiling brightly I turn towards the little blue cat and stick out my hand and say " Hi, I'm Caroline. What's your name?" I tilt my head and smile at him I absentmindedly brush an escaped lock of golden brown hair behind my ear. My ponytail is falling into shambles.
"Happy" he replies his eyes full of awe. I proceed to shake his paw gently "You're way cool! Natsu is going to be so jealous he missed this!" I giggle at him and proceed to ask him a question.
"I don't feel comfortable leaving you alone out here can I take you home?"
Happy replies in a chipper tone "Could you take me to Fairytail? It's my guild and I'm sure they're worried about me."
"That sounds great! I have never been to a guildhall before this should be fun." I straighten fuss with my jean shorts and wipe at dirt on my shirt.
"You don't even know the half of it" he replies with a devilish grin.
