CHAPTER 1- X777
A/N- I do not own Fairy Tail. Also, the story is going to be from the OC's POV unless otherwise noticed.
Let's start out with some introductions. Hello! My name is Rocky and I am currently 10 years old. Yes, I know I have a boy's name but I am 100% female. I am a member of the mage guild known as Fairy Tail.
What type of magic do I use? I can use telepathy, learning telekinesis, and dabble with other magic types. Most importantly, I am an Elemental Dragon Slayer. But, I was not raised by a dragon. I traveled all of Fiore and trained with many dragons in order to master the different elements. I did spend a greater amount of time with one dragon because he thought of me as a daughter and wanted me to stay. Even though I would have liked to stayed, it was not possible.
However, not soon after I left, I found Fairy Tail. They welcomed me and became my new family. I made many new friends and went on many missions with them all. A girl named Erza Scarlet and a boy named Gray Fullbuster were the two people that I was closest with at the guild. The three of us made a team and even at a young age we were unstoppable. But one day, when a boy joined the guild, we gained a new addition to our team.
It was a normal day. The guild was loud and crazy like it always was. I was sitting at our usual table with Erza, Gray, and the other kids our age. We were talking, joking, laughing, and telling Gray that he had stripped unconsciously again.
After telling Gray that his clothes were gone once again, I noticed a boy with pink hair walk into the guild. The boy looked and smelled familiar, but I could not figure out why. I pushed the feeling aside because who could forget pink hair like that?
He walked over to Master Makarov, and started talking to him. This was when everyone else noticed the boy and also started to wonder who he was. Gray then turned to me and asked, "Oi, Rocky, can you hear what the master and Pinky are talking about?"
"Yeah."
"What are they saying?"
"You asked if I could hear them and not if I was actually listening to them. And you know that I don't like to listen in on Gramps' conversations."
"Yes, Gray. It is not polite to listen eavesdrop," Erza lectured.
We then turned back to look at the pink haired boy and Gramps. We sat there for another minute of two. Then Gramps got up and yelled to the guild, "Everyone, this is our new member Natsu Dragneel." Everyone in the guild then cheered. The cheering grew even louder after Gramps said, "Tonight we will welcome him with a party!"
Gramps walked over to us with, as Gray calls him, Pinky. Gramps looked at us and said, "This is Natsu. I hope you all can teach him about the guild and how things work around here." He then left us to meet Natsu and get to know him.
"Hello, Natsu. Come and join us. There is an empty seat over there," Erza said. Natsu then walked over to the other side of the table and then sat down. The empty seat that Erza had pointed out was across from her and next to me. Once he was seated Erza started to introduce everyone around the table. "My name is Erza. Next to me is Gray. Then on around are Cana, Levi, and Rocky. There are three others who usually sit with us but they are away on a mission. They are the Strauss siblings, Mirajane, Elfman, and Lisanna."
Natsu looked around the table and repeated our names to help him remember. He then smiled a goofy toothy grin and said, "Nice to meet you all."
"Oi, Pinky. What's your magic?" Gray asked.
"My hair's not pink. It's salmon!" Natsu yelled. "I am a Fire Dragon Slayer."
"A Dragon Slayer?" Cana questioned.
"Yeah! I was raised by a dragon and he taught me how to use fire magic. My magic is strong enough that I can defeat a dragon."
"Are you trying to tell us dragons are really, Pinky?" Gray asked.
"I also find it a little hard to believe since I have not seen any book about dragons. I've only read about dragons in fairy tales," said our little blue haired bookworm, Levi.
"They are real! And quit calling me Pinky!" yelled Natsu.
"What's his name?" I asked to distract Natsu and Gray before they started to fight.
"Huh?" asked Natsu since he was focused on Gray just a second ago and did not hear my question.
"What was his name? Your dragon."
"His name is Igneel."
"Did you have to leave him because you mastered your all of your training with you element?"
"No. Igneel disappeared one day. I searched for him but then I found this place. I asked the master for any information that he would have."
"So that's why it took so long for Master to introduce you to everyone. When a new member comes, we are introduced almost immediately," Cana said.
Natsu then continued, "Yeah. He said he did not know anything about the dragons disappearing. I told him about my search for Igneel and he talked me into joining the guild and staying here. He told me that I could take missions and earn money and have a place to stay but could still search for Igneel." My eyes widened from shock. After being told all of this, I then realized why Natsu seemed so familiar to me. Gray looked at me worryingly because he knew of my past and knew how this information would affect me.
"Speaking of which. Where are you staying? You can't live in the guild," Erza asked as she pulled me back to reality.
"I thought this place was so big because you all lived in here. Where do you all live?"
"Erza, Cana, and I all live in Fairy Hills. That is the girls' dormitory," Levi said.
"I ain't telling you were I live Pinky," said Gray.
I then said to Natsu, "I have my own house. If you want a place to stay until you have enough money to get a place of your own, you can stay with me."
"Really? That would be awesome! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" Natsu said gratefully.
"Is letting a stranger live in your house really a good idea, Rocky?" Erza questioned.
"Yeah. Especially Pinky!" Gray stated.
"Oh come one you guys. He needs a place to stay for a little while. I have the room. And I live alone so it will be nice to have someone else there. Besides, if he tries anything, I'll just kick his ass right there and then tell you guys later so you can join in on the fun."
"Watch your language, Rocky! But, when you put it that way, I guess I can allow it," Erza said.
"If he tries anything, call me and I will come to your place right away. I don't care what time it is!" Gray said protectively.
"Don't worry. I'll call you and Erza right then and there if something happens. Then you can help me kick his a- … I mean take care of him then. Then you could join in again when I tell the rest of the guild the next day!" I said reassuringly.
I then turned to Natsu to see if he wanted to go take his things to my house and relax a little bit before his party started. I was greeted with a pale and scared looking face. "Uh-oh"
"Oi, what's wrong with you Pinky? Did we scare you?" Gray asked.
Natsu quickly regained his color and replied, "No. But you must of scared yourself because your pants are gone, stripper."
Gray looked down and yelled, "Gah! When did that happen?" He then started running around to find his clothes. Erza, Cana, and Levi just sighed and shook their heads. I sat there trying not to start laughing. Natsu calling Gray a stripper made me want to laugh so much.
Once I felt that my urge to laugh was under control, I looked to the rest of the girls and told them that I was going to take Natsu to my house so he could leave his things there.
After we left the guild, I showed Natsu around Magnolia a little bit before we headed to my house. We were walking down the street and then I made a sudden turn onto a forest path. We walked down the path a little bit when Natsu asked, "You don't live in the city?"
"No. I live out here because it is calm and quiet. I love it but sometimes it is nice to come here after spending the day at the guild, especially after parties. Also, it is easier to train out here. It's hard to be found out here so most likely, no one will come and interrupt or get hurt if you are using your magic."
"Oh yeah! I never got a chance to ask what type of magic everyone uses. Can you tell me? Also, how old are they?"
"Well, Erza is 12 and she uses Requip Magic. Gray's 11 and his magic is Ice Make. Levi's 10 and uses Solid Script. And Cana is 11 and uses Card Magic. I am 10 and can use telepathy and sometimes other magic types. However, it's easier to just say that I'm an Elemental Dragon Slayer."
"What?! You're a dragon slayer too? What was your dragon's name? Did they disappear too? Also, what is telepathy?" he asked excitedly.
"Whoa! Calm down. Telepathy basically means I can read peoples' minds and also communicate with them while still in their head. And yes I am a dragon slayer. I did not train with one dragon. I trained with many dragons because I can control every element. I met many dragons but mostly spent my time with 5. And I do not know if all of them disappeared. If something happened to someone as strong as Igneel, then there is a good chance that the others may have disappeared too."
"You trained with many dragons. Does that mean you know Igneel?"
"Yes, I knew Igneel. I even trained with him so I could master my fire magic. You may not remember but you and I actually trained together during my time with Igneel. Back at the guild when I first saw you, I felt like I knew you but I could not remember how. I only remembered you when you started to talk about Igneel."
We were almost to my house when I stopped and said, "Let's go this way. I want to show you something." We then walked off the path and through the trees. We ended up in a beautiful meadow that had a pond with a small waterfall. The pond was the perfect size for swimming during the summer.
I sat down at the edge of the pond and put my feet in the water. "Come on over. The water is nice."
Natsu then walked over and sat next to me. "How did you find this place?"
"When I first moved out here, I found this place while looking for somewhere to train. This place is just too nice to use for training, so now I just come out here to relax. The meadow looks even more amazing in the spring when the flowers bloom."
We sat there in a relaxing silence for a little bit. Then Natsu said, "I remember."
"What do you remember?"
"I remember you. When we were both with Igneel. I always remembered training with a girl that had brown hair that went to her back and big brown eyes. I could never remember her name though. I always felt like a bad friend because of that. I felt like I knew you too when I sat next to you at the table today. But after talking and then sitting here thinking, I finally was able to remember." He then turned to me and gave me that goofy toothy grin.
I smiled and then said, "Come on. Let's go to the house now."
"Can we come back here later?"
"Yeah. Not tonight though. You can't miss your party!"
We walked the rest of the way home in silence. When we got there, I unlocked the door and when we walked in, his eyes grew wide. "You okay?"
"Yeah. It's kind of weird to be staying in an actual house. I've always lived in a cave with Igneel. Well, not always. Sometimes we would find a clearing and sleep out there and watch the stars.
"Well, come on. I'll give you the tour."
We walked around and I showed him the kitchen, living room, and a bathroom. We then went upstairs and I showed him which room was his and which one was mine. "Your room is going to be here on the right. Your bathroom is connected to your room. My room is here on the left."
I then opened up the door to his room to reveal a room painted a tan color and had two windows on the wall opposite of the door. Between the windows was a nice sized bed with a red comforter and pillows on top. The room also had a desk and dresser.
I walked in and opened another door. "This door is for the closet. You can put your clothes in here, the dresser, or both. And this door over here is for the bathroom. I have to change the sheets on the bed before you use it. If you want, you can go take a shower and I'll do that now. Let me show you how to work the shower. It's kind of tricky."
"Okay. Sure." We walked in, I showed him where the towels and soap were, and then showed how to turn the shower on. I then left the room, closing the door behind me, so I could go fix the bed. After I finished, I went down stairs to lie down on the couch to wait for Natsu to finish getting ready.
I guess I fell asleep because the next time I opened my eyes, I saw Natsu kneeling next to me. He then asked quietly, "Are you ready to go back to the guild?" I sat up and stretched while nodding my head. Then we left the house and made our way back to the guild for Natsu's party.
