Disclaimer: I don't own Fairytail. DUH!
It was a normal day in Magnolia's most powerful wizard guild, Fairytail.
"Gray! You bastard, did you do this?!" A man shouted. The man had salmon colored hair which stood up in all directions, large onyx eyes, and a muscular frame. His scaly scarf, dark waistcoat and vest flapped slightly in the wind that escaped through the doors and windows into the guild. And, at the moment, a mustache, obviously drawn on with pink sharpie, stood out against his tan skin.
"Yeah!" Another man replied. Gray was wearing nothing but a pair of striped boxers, his blue-black hair and dark eyes a sight all too common and aggravating for the other male. "Really, Natsu, if ya didn't want a mustache you shouldn't of slept on my favorite table." They glared into each others eyes, neither willing to back down in their little staring contest. Simultaneously, as if it had been communicated, the two launched themselves at each other.
Gray decided to use his ice-make magic. "Ice-make: hammer!" from between his now clenched fists a giant hammer of ice formed.
"Oh, you're gonna play it that way? Fine by me!" Natsu was all too happy to use his fire dragon slayer magic. In his mind, Gray's magic didn't stand a chance against his own. "Fire dragon's iron fist!" And he charged at his rival, fist lit on fire.
At Fairytail, fights are contagious. As the two immature men grappled each other, they knocked drinks out of their guildmates hands, knocked people over, and destroyed furniture. Soon, everyone was raring to fight. Well, almost everyone.
"Aah, and here I thought it would be peaceful just because Natsu was asleep. I guess I was wrong." A blonde haired girl sighed from her seat at the bar. She was a celestial spirit mage, a girl who used the power of the stars to call familiars to her. Even with such powerful magic, she couldn't help the way her brown eyes took in the fight distastefully.
"Sure, but it's what makes Fairytail Fairytail. If everyone was all calm and peaceful I'd think that I was in the wrong guild." The bar maid, Mirajane chuckled. Her long white hair swayed steadily as she polished an already sparkling mug.
The blonde girl, Lucy, silently agreed. While she didn't necessarily enjoy it when everyone broke out fighting, it sure kept things interesting and she honestly wouldn't have it any other way. "By the way, why is-?" But Lucy was cut off.
"You brats!" A voice bellowed. The guild master, a short little old man, was currently using his power to grow and shrink by making his arm huge and squishing the closest mages, who just so happened to be Gray and Natsu. The whole guild calmed down after that. The master, Makarov, turned to one of his most trusted mages, Erza Scarlet. He muttered something to her, and she nodded.
Soon, Natsu, Gray, Lucy, Erza, and a little girl called Wendy were gathered in front of the master. Whenever they went on a mission together, they were known as team Natsu.
"You've been specially requested for a mission. Here's the details." Master told them in a cheery tone, giving them a flyer. He was gone, just as soon as he'd appeared.
"Hey, Erza, what's it say?" Natsu asked.
Erza was the leader of the group, even if it was named after Natsu. She had long scarlet hair and always wore armor, though with her requip magic she could immediately change into another outfit, or even change her weapon. While people often times feared her for her power and she felt compelled to keep order, she was still a good friend. "Whoever sent this out wants to get rid of a band of thieves in Troine. The reward is 400,000 jewels!" She looked at the group. "We'll meet at the train station in 3 hours." And she too left.
Wendy looked down at the ground sadly. Her two blue pig tails almost seemed to be drooping, making the girl seem even more depressed. "What's wrong, Wendy?" Lucy asked.
She looked at her friend and said, "Well, I feel a little bad since Charle can't come with me." Charle, one of the guild's 3 talking, flying cats, or exceeds had gone on a mission with the other two. Wendy was a dragon slayer, like Natsu, who controlled the wind element.
"It'll be okay Wendy. Charle is probably finishing up her mission as we speak. And we're all your friends, so you wont be lonely!" Lucy responded confidently.
Natsu, next to Lucy, was not feeling so confident. "Oh no..." He whispered.
"What is it now Flame breath?" Gray asked.
"Troine, I remember that town, it's in the Arctic. That means a long train ride!"
Thanks for reading! Is it short? Yes. It's the prologue, of course it's short. My regular chapters will be much longer, so don't worry ;)
