The world cried, as a blanket of fire and death cascaded over the lands and seas, sapping away life like an incurable disease. Humans had become obsessed with power, power brought forth from magic. They killed without mercy or thought for fellow man. Each of the higher entities convened together for the first time in history, coming together in piece to find away to save the humans and creatures of Earthland. The Gods, lords of prayer and protectors of the Sky Realm. Dragons, masters of the land and all it's hidden mysteries and treasures. And Demons, keepers of the dead, and holders of the realm of the underworld. Seven was the decided number. Seven would choose a creature or human, train it in the way of their magic. These chosen few would have the power to fight and kill the strongest beings in the world. They would be the hope that mankind needs. Or they would be it's downfall.
Each of the Gods chose humans, to be the vessels of their power. These chosen few, created a place of learning and healing. They offered guidance and medicine to the denizens of Earthland, often traveling to the kingdoms. Many times these few would become royal advisors. Save for three. Three chose a different path, and became more of an influence on the world. The demons, chose to not reveal the seven. Or even if they adhered to the Pact of the Three. And the dragons, the dragons chose their seven, putting them under a human lord. They created a base of power in the North, a castle, secluded away from the world. They remained untouched by the violent outside world, save for one day, the day that the envoys of Fiore came.
Lord Hawthorn grunted in acknowledgement as his Captain of the Guard and the Beta came in. Standing tall with a high air of authority was the Guard Captain. She was a fierce looking woman, long scarlet her flowing down her back. Her gaze hard, she could be described as beautiful, but not soft. The red haired woman stood in her usual armor, hand on her sword. Beside her stood a large man, fur coat draped over his shoulder. Spiky blonde hair stood atop his head, accented by sharp blue eyes and a lightning shaped scar. His arms crossed, he too looked authoritative, but with a hint of arrogance.
"My lord," began the scarlet haired woman, "There is an entourage at the gates, they seek shelter from the storms. And request to speak with you."
"Captain Erza, have your men open the gates for them. We are not savages. Oh, and consult the Master as well." Lord Hawthorn spoke quietly.
Bowing, Erza strode from the room, as Hawthorn turned toward the man, raising his eyebrow, "Well Laxus? Any reason that your Alpha chose not to grace us?"
The tall man rumbled in response, "Not my call what my Alpha does. I support and advise. 'Sides that," Laxus summoned a large spear in a flash of lightning, "The Alpha already knows they're here. Know since yesterday."
Scoffing, the lord of the castle turned. Pacing toward the throne, he sat on it. Leaning back the man rubbed his face in frustration. "Fine fine. Just try and have all seven here please, for the dinner. Erza will be needed, at least for the beginning and I would prefer to know that security is handled."
Mumbling the big man walked away, striding with purpose toward Erza, who stood by the gates, now flooding with people. Or at least more people than he'd seen enter the gate before. Beside her stood a large brown haired man, garbed in royal armor, hand resting on his sword. Another smaller man stood to the side, a crown could be seen glinting off his head. Laxus sighed thoughts racing through his head, "Fuck this isn't good. Royalty eh?" His ears perked as he heard their conversation.
"We only seek shelter, and aide to find my daughter. She was lost in the storm." The smaller man said.
Erza replied with, "Of course. Our lord has told us to offer you any assistance you may require. Please come this way." The newcomers followed Erza farther into the castle grounds.
Scene Change- Forest
Princess Hisui woke up with a start, filled with a surprising warmth. Opening her tired eyes, as her vision adjusted, she realized she was in a cave. And she also realized she couldn't move. The jade haired woman glanced down, gasping in shock, her clothes were gone. She was completely naked, and there was a woman, also naked much to Hisui's dismay, her arms wrapped around her. Glancing toward the other woman's face, the princess gasped as she was met with inquisitive purple eyes.
The other woman stood up, stretching, and Hisui took the time to observe her, curiosity getting the better of her. The woman was beautiful, with lightly tanned skin, and a curvy, well-toned body, with long smooth legs. A tattoo of a furious dragon rose from the woman's left hip all the way across her ribcage and ended on the side of her left breast. She had long, spiky pink hair that ran down her back, and as she yawned Hisui noticed her canines were slightly sharper than normal.
The princess found herself blushing in slight jealousy as she realized that the woman had very perky breasts, and a nice butt. Her eyes slowly making their way back to the pinkette's face, Hisui gasped, realizing the woman was smirking.
"Like what ya see?" the woman purred in a slightly seductive voice. Leaning down she purred seductively in the green haired woman's ear, "Keep staring and I might have a hard time keeping my hands to myself."
Sputtering the princess struggled to find words, finally she spit out, "I am not like that Miss! How dare you assume such things. I am a prince-" The woman was cut of, as she felt the other woman's finger on her lips, her face inches from her own.
"Princess. You're a princess, I know." The pinkette said nonchalantly as she pulled on a baggy pair of black pants, with steel plated leather over the thighs and knees. She continued, "Been, trailin you for a few days. All of you. You got lost, so I followed you instead. Passed out from the cold, carried you here, kept you warm."
The princess sat there wide-eyed, unable to form words. After wrapping bandages around her chest, the pinkette strapped steel plated leather vambraces to her forearms. She strapped her pants at the shin, behind the knee, and around the thigh. Over her shoulders was draped an elegant fur pelt, a wolfskin, its head failing menacingly over the left shoulder. Finally she strapped a long katana to her back.
"This is the part where you say thank you Natsumi. Now get dressed, we've got to get to the castle." Natsumi said.
The two woman trekked through the snow, the moon shining high and bright over the forest. Hisui was in awe, spending most of her life in the castle, fear of the Seven Generals keeping the gates closed. Glancing ahead of her, she watched the woman that she owed her life to, Natsumi. The woman was her age, around seventeen it seemed. But she held an air of discipline and authority, covered by sarcasm it seemed. Hisui had noticed several scars glint in the fire light while the two were in the cave, but hadn't said anything of it.
Soon the two arrived at the gates of an extraordinary castle. The gates themselves were at least fifty feet high, pure steel set in massive stone walls. Lights from windows could be seen flickering from the side of the cliff face. Whistling sharply, Natsumi raised her hand toward the castle walls. The gates creaked open slowly to reveal a smiling blunette, no older than twelve. Smiling she ran forward and jumped at Natsumi. Scooping the girl into her arms, Natsumi spun her around laughing. Upon hearing the other girls laugh, Hisui stopped in her tracks. It was like a melody flowed into her very soul. Saking her head the green haired woman followed the other two toward what she assumed was the castle dining hall.
Lord Hawthorn sat, his temple throbbing slightly at the supposed Alpha's lack of appearance. He had Laxus take a few out to search for the missing princess, but the man returned slightly under an hour ago saying the storm knocked out the trail. Hawthorn felt like the blonde was lying, or he didn't take the Sky Maiden. The entourage turned out to be from the distant country of Fiore, consisting of King Tome, his Royal Champion Arcadious, his missing daughter Hisui and a few servants and gaurds. They were all very somber, only looking up when the dining hall doors flew open.
There stood Natsumi, hands on her hips and the ever present smirk that never left her face. Behind her stood her sister Wendy, trying to hide herself from all the new faces. And to her said was a green haired woman that Hawthorn didn't know, until the Fiorians surged from the table, tears of joying streaming from their eyes. Natsumi stood out of the way, leaning against the wall, arms crossed. Laxus strolled up to her, a slight grin on his face.
"My Queen." Bowing his head slightly, "Hawthorn's pissed by the way."
"Cut the formal shit Laxus. You know I hate that." Natsumi huffed before sighing, "And I could care less if he's pissed. I think I finally got us a way out of here. Or at least you all."
"Now you cut the shit," Laxus snarled, roughly grabbing the pinkette's arm, "You know none of us leave without you."
Natsumi eye's flashed as she looked at Laxus, he released his grip, "You think I don't know that? Why do you think I chose you as a Beta? It's not just for your strength. Now act like it."
The pinkette started walking past some knights, sashaying her hips as she turned back and winked at Laxus, "Besides, I know you found my scent Laxus. You could've told Lord Hairline that the princess was safe. But you didn't. Good boy."
The night wore on as everyone drank and laughed. Hisui found herself glancing around for her pink haired savior, but couldn't find her anywhere. She saw her talking to the large blonde haired man, but she was slightly afraid to approach him. Catching a flicker of blue, she hastily headed towards Wendy.
Bowing slightly Hisui spoke, "Good Evening. I don't think I introduced myself properly, my name is Hisui."
Wendy started slightly before dropping into a low curty, "Your Higness, a pleasure to meet you. I'm glad my sister found you."
"Natsumi is your sister?" Hisui asked.
"Yes. It's a littled complicated, but we are blood siblings. I'll explain sometime, depending on the length of your stay."
Hisui fidgeted with her hands for a moment, "Wendy, were is your sister? I haven't been able to thank her."
"Hmm…well," Wendy's eyes scanned the room, "Laxus-nii isn't here. Neither are the twins. I don't see Cobra either, or Gajeel. So I guess we need to go to Fairy Tail."
"Fairy Tail?" Hisui asked perplexed.
"You'll see!"
