Chapter 1: Welcome
by crownbutt123

Hello ladies, I am the current manager of Fairy Tail, a model industry that you two ladies have shown great interest for quite a while. We appreciate your constant support and love for our lovely model employees.

Before going to the point, I find it crucial to introduce myself. My name is Erza Scarlet, manager under CEO Makarov. Last week, our make-up artist / young model miss Wendy fell ill. She was our only strong artist, and seldom appeared on the magazines with her amazing young charm.
However, due to her absence, I have emailed you dear ladies directly to offer an official position in Fairy Tail.

First and foremost, my greatest apologies for going through Lucy Heartfilia's tumblr and instagram to judge your physical stature that we have taken interest in for quite a while.
Also, in the case of Levy Mcgarden, I would like to say that I am quite impressed with the work you have posted in the Internet Space. Your skills turn out to be exactly what we need. With the approval of CEO Makarov, and myself, the HR manager, I would like to offer Lucy Heartfilia a job as a novel model here, and Levy Mcgarden as our new make-up artist.

In the case of Miss McGarden, we have to humbly say that this is more of a request with a big offer from out organization due to our current artist's absence. Since we have found out that the two of you are sisters (presuming you are always together), we would like to provide housing, main staples, and other features for you to gladly accept this offer.

Also, congratulations on your graduations beautiful ladies. I would love to hear a response from you two.

Sincerely,

Erza Scarlet

Fairy Tail
HR and Manager

Levy blinked. She could not believe it. Not only did she just graduate as the valedictorian this year, but also offered a job to an industry she had given up years ago? Things couldn't get better than this. Her career was not truly coming true.

It seemed as though Lucy was as surprised. Her full-time commitment to maintain her beautiful stature has won over a crowd indeed. A Fairy Tail crowd. Has her dream come true? To be honest, she has just barely graduated with the C's, since her 'study-time' was devoted to working out and reading magazines. Of course, she made collages of the hot model, Natsu Dragneel, from every magazine she bought.

The two slowly turned to face each other. They simultaneously grinned, hanging their lips over their ears.

"Lev!"

"Lu!"

A usual day for Gajeel.

"Gajeel-san! Looks like another box for you!"

Mira beamed happily as she entered Gajeel's office, her flimsy arms almost giving out to the weight of the box. Nevertheless, she smiled, because that's just who she was.

He looked up ever so slightly, slipping his glasses into place. He wasn't surprised at all to see a large box elaborated with excessive decorations.

"Look who made it to the #1 picked- model this month..Again!" Mira complimented at her unsurprised acquaintance, flashing him another smile. She knew too well what lay in those boxes as well.

"Oh, it's not chocolate from the fans this time." Mirajane answered, as if she had just understood Gajeel's grunt.

"Hmph," he grunted in recognition of her keenness. He looked up over his glasses, beckoning an answer.

"Don't like it too much, hm?" Mira suddenly lifted the pair of tight boxers. It was a black pair, designed with iron hems. Gajeel was certainly impressed by the present that his fans have presented before him. Well, through the Fairy Tail mailbox he supposed. Thinking about the mailbox of FT made him wonder why Mira came when Lisanna was in charge of deliveries. Well, he could care less.

"It's..nice."

Mira sighed at his almost soulless response. "Gajeel-kun. You should appreciate it more!"

He looked down at his designing sketches. "I do."

"Well, this is not all, Gajeel-kun. They wrote a letter in here, and since they end up in your trashcan before reaching your brain, I will read it to you."

He looked up again, taking off his glasses. Gajeel was alittle annoyed for having his privacy intruded, not that he really cared. But something about Mira reading his letters made him…cringe.

Mira continued, "We, the fans, send this with biggest request of you wearing it for the next shooting….if not, the next shooting after that! We love you kurogane!"

He merely grunted, but Mira understood what he meant. She smiled and whispered a small 'thank you' before making her way to the door.

She turned around abruptly, holding the knob. "By the way Gajeel-kun, you should come to the lounge in a five. It seems like Erza has found some newbies!"

He nodded and started organizing his papers. He knew that her suggestions were not suggestions. They were demands. He recollected the last time he was called to join the introduction for newbies, and he had to deal with 197 miss calls. Did I mention that FT members are not allowed to reject phone calls, even in the early morning (ahem, 6 a.m.). So yeah, he had to deal with listening to all of 197 miss calls, and even vibration mode was annoying enough.

"Be there soon." He imagined himself sweating alittle from the memory.

"Good to hear you are finally interested in socializing! By the way," she paused and opened the door to make her leave.

"..I heard there's a hot blondy joining too." She winked and left.

Gajeel, in all honesty, had zero interest in blondies. He liked bust, yeah, but the ass got his attention more. Not that he really fell in love before..Nor did he have one-night stands. He just…wasn't interested in the opposite sex. As his Model name implies, he is cold as steel.

The news of the newbies got him wondering why more human beings had to join. But then, he remembered hearing Makarov crying for FT's make-up artist Wendy last week. The master, as the members call Makarov, was so devastated for her illness. In the end, no one could do anything about it. Even Gajeel was a little saddened about Wendy. She was so bright, and probably the only one who smiled so happily for Gajeel too. When she did his make-ups and styling, Wendy always teased him, saying something along the lines of, 'you big cold dragon' or 'meanie.' He liked her attention though. It was cute. But with Wendy's bright aura gone, everyone had no choice but to rely on the other famous socio-path, Porlyusca, for her well-being. Though, everyone doubted full recovery.

Gajeel looked up at the clock. He was lost in his thoughts for more than three minutes. He took this as his cue to put on his long-coat, which was of course black. Today, he simply wore a long white tee with tight black jeans, plus the black combat boots. It was his daily look. He put his glasses on, since he didn't like how people looked into his red orbs and drew back in terror.
He opened the door, exiting his office. He immediately heard Juvia's voice.

"Juvia cannot believe it! Juvia sees the girls right now, coming out of their car. The yellow head is too pretty!"
She bit on her knitted sweater, annoyed. It was obvious that her love for Gray was the reason behind her frustration. This ridiculous idea about "love rivals" was a typical quote of Juvia's.

On the other hand, Gray was too oblivious. "The blonde's the hot one, right, Juvia?"

Juvia turned to stone in shock. Almost literally.

"Speak of the devil…" sighed Erza, finding it amusing that Gray was so innocent. Or acting like it to avoid the attention.

Right when Juvia was about to comment about Gray's ridiculous response, Natsu barged out of his office and jumped on Gray. "Gray! You son of a bitch! Don't you know that - "

And he was on the floor. Gajeel appeared from behind Natsu, acting as if he didn't punch Natsu from behind. Gajeel knew his only 'friend's' love for the cold bastard, so he decided to punch Natsu just at the right timing. Juvia wouldn't want anyone else to spill the beans to Gray about her feelings.

"Oi! Kurogane!" Natsu looked back in anger, but Gajeel ignored him. He could care less. Natsu turned back around with a "tch" and went back to fighting with Gray.

While everyone was waiting to greet a new member to their organization, Erza went ahead towards the entrance to greet the newcomers. The two newcomers were almost at the entrance, which Erza believed to be the right timing to open the doors. Makarov followed from behind and did his icon smile. The other members of FT stayed in the lounge, behind another door, preparing to introduce one another….well, more like, dealing with Natsu and Gray for now.

Makarov opened his arms "Greetings ladies!" He shone his teeth at them.

The two new girls were taken aback. Although they heard that Fairy Tail had a 'equal' community, they did not expect to see the CEO first. Levy was too nervous, she could not stop shaking.

Before they came out of their little apartment, filing the office that their contract has to be suspended from then on, Lucy insisted that Levy dresses nicely. Lucy had a knack at coordinating herself, but Levy? Let's just say that Lucy was kind enough to teach her the difference between a a-line skirt and an h-line skirt.
Now she was better. Today, Levy wore tight skinny jeans and tucked in a linen shirt, patterned with vertical blue lines. She wore her gold pendant that Lucy gave her as a birthday present. It was designed in the shape of her constellation, horoscope. Lucy wore the same one too.

Back to reality, Lucy stepped up first, more confident than her bluenette partner.

"Hello Makarov! My name is Lucy Heartfilia. I am super duper happy to meet you!" She smiled. Levy looked at her friend in admiration. She took a breath to greet herself too, only to fail her expectations.

"H-hello. My name is…Levy. It is a pleasure to meet you master Makarov."

Makarov liked them instantly. They emitted a 'happy' aura. "Well, what are you waiting for? come straight in!" Then, Erza stood ahead, smiling in her charismatic way.

"Come with me. I will take you to the lounge to sort of…inaugurate you as official members."

The four started trotting down the long hallway. The carpet was deep crimson red, resembling nobility. On each side of the wall hung photographs of Makarov in the best moments of his career. As they walked, the pictures started to include more members of FT, standing proud beside their master. Lucy blushed when she spotted Natsu, who was in the pictures from the very second frame.

"Umm..Erza? Don't we go through an interview?" Levy questioned, assuming that they were suddenly already accepted as official members. She was expecting something somewhat stricter, as it was coming from Erza, the "strict manager."

Erza grinned and hummed, "I think the pictures and the resume were sufficient for that. I think the email I wrote was more in the form of a plea, than an offer." Makarov turned around at Erza's comment and winked at the girls. The two newbies giggled, admiring the warmth. If this was their first meeting, then they could not fathom how much more exciting things would get.

"Here we are," Erza said to herself, as she placed her hands on the big doors that led to the lounge.

"Welcome to Fairy Tail."
