So I had this lovely idea today. I don't own FT, and I'll try to update my other stories soon. Enjoy!
A young cloaked girl, a blonde teenager, sighed as she strode down the main street in Magnolia. She was tired and exhausted, about to fall over. Luckily, she found her target. The tall Fairy Tail building was right in front of her. Smiling to herself, she kicked the door open to announce her presence.
The guild doors flew open, which surprised very few inside the guild. It was common for the doors to fly off their hinges when one of the rowdier mages came home. Namely, Natsu Dragneel. Mirajane Strauss, the barista, turned with a smile to the door, expecting to see Natsu. Instead, she saw a cloaked figure. It walked in confidently as the guild fell into a hush. It stopped in front of Mirajane.
"Where's Makarov?" a young girl's voice asked. Mira, slightly surprised, pointed up the stairs to the S-Class floor. The figure nodded, thanking her and climbing up. Mirajane followed her with her eyes, absently wiping the counter down. As the cloak swished out of view, the guild began to talk and gossip again.
The girl timidly knocked on Makarov's door. She pushed it open and swung her hood off. "Grandpa?"
Makarov's head shot up. A huge grin spread across his face. "Lucy?"
The small man ran around his desk to hug his favorite grandchild. The two exchanged pleasantries for a while before he popped the question.
"What are you doing here? Does Jude know?" he asked seriously. Her father, his son-in-law, was a real control freak. If he didn't know, they were both in serious trouble.
Lucy shifted uncomfortably in her seat. "I ran away. He was trying to force me to marry some idiot and wouldn't let me practice Mama's magic."
Makarov frowned, lost in thought for a moment. Then he grinned again, this time slightly evilly. "Why don't you join Fairy Tail?"
Lucy tapped her chin and smiled. "Sure!"
Makarov took her hand and led her out of his office.
Mirajane watched a blonde girl with the cloak on come down the stairs, led by Master. He had a big goofy grin on his face as he led her to Mira. The blonde smiled timidly at the white haired girl. Mira smiled back.
"Mirajane, this is Lucy. She's joining Fairy Tail," the old man chirped happily. He was a lot more excited about this new recruit than any other.
"Hi," Lucy said gently. Mirajane grinned and pulled out the stamp.
"Where do you want it?" she asked.
Lucy pointed to her right hand. "Can it be in gold?"
Mira nodded and stamped her hand. Small sparks flew and the gold stamp shined brightly. The blonde thanked her and sat on one of the stools, slipping off her black cloak. Under it she wore a fitted white tank top and light blue skinny jeans. Black combat boots covered her feet and she wore several bracelets. Her ears were also pierced multiple times. Her blonde hair fell just past the middle of her back. She was beautiful in an 'I-can-kill-you' sort of way, but she seemed somewhat nervous. Kindly, Mira approached her.
"Do you need somewhere to stay?" she asked. Lucy's eyes widened for a second. She clearly hadn't thought that far ahead yet. Then she laughed quietly and waved it off.
"I'm sure Grandpa can help me find something later," she replied to Mira's questioning gaze.
"Grandpa?"
Lucy face-palmed, but not at Mirajane. "I guess he forgot in his introduction. Makarov is my Grandpa," she explained.
Mira nodded, hiding her surprise. "Okay. Let me know if you need anything."
The guild doors flew open again, and this time it was Natsu. Mirajane called her greeting to him and he returned it. He sat at the bar and laughed at his strange blue cat. It took him a few minutes to notice the blonde sitting at the bar.
"Who are you?" he asked rudely. Lucy turned to face him.
"Excuse me?"
"Who are you?" he repeated.
"Lucy. I just joined," she said, turning back around. She was playing with some keys on a ring. Since she was ignoring him, and he was bored, he grabbed them out of her hands and held them above her head.
"Oi! Give them back!" she shouted, jumping and reaching for them, causing many men in the vicinity nosebleeds. She was well endowed, to say the least.
Natsu laughed at her. He was still very immature for being seventeen, but not in an older immature. More like a little kid. Lucy, getting more annoyed by the second, made one final jump and failed to grab them. Angry with Natsu for taking them, she started to glow. Eventually, her glow forced him to shut his eyes, and an angry pulse ripped through the air, knocking everyone down. Natsu flew backwards since he was the closest and hit a wall. Lucy, barely noticing what she had done, strode over to him and took the keys out of his hand. Then she turned and saw her destruction.
She gasped. "Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry!" Lucy ran behind the bar and helped Mirajane stand. "I thought my limiters had stopped that from happening, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to!"
Mira laughed and brushed her off. "Don't worry about it. Fights are pretty common in here, so that pulse might be helpful."
"Pulse?" Lucy asked, tilting her head cutely. Realization washed over her. "I need to talk to Grandpa," she breathed. She ran up to the second floor and burst into the Master's office.
The guild doors flew open for a third time, and this time it was Laxus and his gang. Mira waved at the lightning slayer, who gave her a cocky half smile and sat in his normal dark corner of the guild. He surveyed the recent destruction and the knocked out Natsu in one of the walls and grinned. There was a newbie. And said newbie soon came flying down the stairs. The blonde ran to the doors, where Laxus transported and stopped her. He recognized her instantly.
"Luce? What are you doin' here?" he asked, holding her in place by her shoulders.
Lucy glanced up at him. "Not now, Laxus-nii. I need to get another limiter."
Laxus studied her for a second and nodded. "Alright, go ahead." He let her pass, transporting back to his corner. His teammates' questioning glances went unanswered.
I liked the idea of Laxus transporting using lightning, so that's how he does it. Also a hint of LaxusXMirajane there! Review and let me know if you'd like more. If you don't, I'm still working on the second chapter so suffer. :)
