Many of the female members of Fairy Tail live in a dormitory out of town called Fairy Hills. Most woke really early as to get more work done. But one slept in longer because her young age and her following of the rules. Today she walked out at 8:30 in the morning to go to the guild with a slight smile on her face. She is a petite girl with fair skin. She has long, dark blue hair that reaches down to her waist, with two bangs framing her face which reach down to her chest alongside her brown eyes. She has slightly elongated canine teeth. She wears her hair up in pigtails held together by two animal ear like attachments. Two strands of hair hang down on each side of her face. She wears a long sleeved top with two buttons in the center and an ascot around her neck. The top is adorned with a small pattern around the shoulders and a small trim around the upturned cuffs. She wears a frilled skirt with a small trim running around right above the end. She also wears thigh high socks.

This is Wendy Marvell, a sky dragon slayer and at the age of twelve making her one of the youngest in the guild. She started off as a shy girl who continued to doubt not her abilities but herself which lead to really low self-esteem. But that all changed a little bit after she joined the guild. She started to grow more confident, stronger, better and wiser with her new family. Unlike the other Dragon Slayers she was never ecstatic about fighting, but that didn't mean she wouldn't fight tooth and nail for her guild because she would.

It had been a week since the grand magic games had happened. A week since they had won. A week from when they were titled the strongest guild in Fiore. As for the slight smile that currently adorned her face. For she was heading to see her friends? For she was going to help Mira at the bar? For she was having a lollygagging good time around the city that day? No because she had a special request for her friends today. After a good half hour of walking she finally made to the front of the newly remodeled guild, courtesy of the townsfolk, and walked through the doors. It was per usual routine that morning. That guild was filled with joyous laughter, friendly chats, drinking happily and the occasional brawls that she was surprised she didn't see a familiar lock of salmon colored hair in one of them. She looked around until she finally found her target. Her team was of in one of the corners. She walked over to them dodging the occasional thrown object from one of the brawls. Happy was trying to give Carla a fish to which she quite harshly denied, she would need to talk to her about her tone again. Lucy was laying her head the table complaining about rent again. Poor girl, being on a team with Natsu can have disastrous results on the paycheck afterwards. Natsu and Gray seem seem to be eye to eye glaring at eachother again not at all bothered by the fact Erza was there and what she does every time they do this. She braced herself waiting for the very often sounded crack of their bones under her fist but it never came. She looked to Erza to find her really interested in the new sorcerer weekly.

Curious as ever she asked "What'cha reading Erza? It must be something interesting if it makes forget these two are arguing again." Realizing what she said she covered her mouth quickly and looked at the two looking at her as if she sent them to death row. She removed her hands and mouthed sorry to them.

Erza who had taken the moment to notice Wendy had joined them and smiled warmly at her. "Good Morning Wendy. For starters thank you for pointing that out." she said as she knocked the two young men's heads together causing those who watch to sweatdrop. She continued where she left off. "Secondly, this article is interesting because well see for yourselves." She turned the magazine around to show the table what she had been reading. Lucy stopped complaining, Happy stopped hitting on Carla, and the boys had gotten back up to read.

Man from top 20 most wanted men was caught last week

Red eyed XaXa, 19th most wanted man in Fiore was caught last week attempting to break into a Black Iron Prison in an attempt to rescue a few of his past collegues. For those who just started reading, XaXa was the former second in command of the now imprisoned dark guild Laughing Coffin; a dark guild with no real logic behind there attacks. We say that for they barely took any illegal jobs and simply killed cause they were in it for the kill. This dark guild was responsible for the destruction of seven small to medium size legal guilds. Four months ago the last of those seven being the last years grand magic games 6th place, Knights of the Blood Oath. A little after the attack, Laughing Coffin's HQ was discovered and through the combined efforts of the army and volunteers of the last attacks survivors; a 85 percent majority was caught. Over the months more have been captured. Now with XaXa in prison the only one left unaccounted for is the third in command Johnny Black. He is to be considedered armed and extremely dangerous. A reward of two million jewels has been placed on his head dead or alive. Warning: Wanted man's preferred magic is poison and carries a poison tipped dagger. If you do try to find him, travel in groups and have proper training. This is the only photo available to show. The photo was grainy at best but you could still make out a figure in the awful picture. The clothes it was wearing were raggedy and had seen better days. Over the gloved hands were a set of metal arm bracers. True to the warning the man was carrying a jagged dagger in his right hand. But the really weird thing was he was wearing a knapsack like mask over his head with two holes for the eyes to see. Lucy and Wendy gulped at the description given while the others narrowed their eyes at the photo.

Gray was the first to speak up "Seven guilds and a few of the small ones were just getting started."

Lucy: "How could anyone just kill just to… you know… kill."

Natsu hated this guys got more and more. "I don't if I'm with someone or not if I get my hands on that bastard I will burn his knapsacked ass into jail with his pals."

Wendy never wanted to see this man ever and really hoped she never cross paths with such people. Dragons are one thing, their big and easier to dodge, humans are more dangerous as they have more tricks than a Dragon will have. She just then remembered that she had come here wanting to ask her friends something.

"Hey guys I just remembered I wanted to ask you all something." (geez it's like a broken record)

They all looked at their youngest female Dragon Slayer who was noticeably fidgeting with nervousness. What got her so wound up?

"What is it child? And try saying as if what you are going to ask is not life ruining." Her exceed Carla had said in her usual motherly tone.

Wendy opened her mouth to speak but out came nothing. Her fist clenching in frustration at her cowardice. Why can't I just out and say it? Taking a deep breath she bowed politely and exclaimed "I request your permission to go on a solo quest."

Everyone at the table was shocked at what Wendy had asked. Not the fact that she wanted to do a job alone because whether it was them or Carla, Wendy had always went with another person. No it was the fact that she thought she needed their permission for it. Smiling at the girl's still slightly timid nature.

Carla: "Dear Child it's a first that you think you need us to give you our blessing but at least say it with confidence."

Gray: "My first solo job was a blast so I say go for it."

Erza with tears of joy: "Oh your first solo mission, you are growing to fast Wendy." Erza then proceeded to hug the blue haired girl aka pulling her head to her chestplate. Yelping at the comical clang that ran through the air.

Wendy was rubbing her forehead when she felt a hand on her head and opened her eyes to see Natsu kneeling to her height, his hand on her head and flashing his highly contagious smile at her.

Natsu: "Go show them not only the spirit of Fairy Tail but also the spirit of all Dragon Slayers."

They nervous weight she held in her chest at the thought of their disapproval of the idea left with Natsu's words. Wendy had always loved him like the big brother she had never had, and she didn't care if the whole world approved of anything he did she felt like she could do it all.

Smiling at his contagious smile she bowed again. "Thanks everyone. You want to help me pick out the job." Everyone nodded and they traversed to the other side of the guild to the job board. They didn't know how long they were there from Natsu wanting her to wipe out a group of bandits much to the disapproval of everyone else to Lucy suggesting that she take a job working at Yajima's restaurant. Finally after a lot of debating they decided on a B-class job to look at some old ruins for a reasonable 25,000 jewels. It was maybe a two hour train ride away. They headed to the bar to get it approved by Mira. The white haired demoness barmaid was stereotypically cleaning the in side of a glass with a cloth. She saw them and smiled as they handed here the job request.

"That's odd I thought with all of you together you would take an A-class or S-class, especially with Natsu and Gray of all people on your team." The two would usually take offense to that but they were to proud of Wendy right now to mind, maybe a different time.

Erza cleared her throat "Actually this is going to be Wendy's first solo mission."

Mira paused for a second before squealing with no short amount of delight. "When she gets back I am nailing this request up on the wall

Wendy was more than a little embarrassed by the fuss that everyone was making over this but didn't mind as she was excited for her first mission on her own. They walk her to the train station, bought her a ticket to the town where the request came from, and waved her off. When Wendy was on the train she looked at the job description and thought it would be a good job. The sound of the door to the train car opened as a girl her age passed her to go the other car. Wendy never saw her face, she just saw the figure wearing a red robe with what she thought was a blue bird on her shoulder because of the feathers but dismissed it in order to sleep a little more before the mission. Little did both of them know that they see each other again really, REALLY soon.
