"There's too much weaklings in this guild." Laxus said to his grandfather.
"They're all family." Makarov tried to explain, but Laxus grabbed his cloak and left.
Laxus was tired of being around all his members in Fairy Tail, they were just not strong enough. He needed a drink so he stopped by a small pub on the other side of Magnolia. 'Tch, I don't want to be the next master of a bunch of people who can't use magic,' He thought as he chugged down another barrel of alcohol. "Hey, I want another barrel," He demanded.
A brown haired petite, but busty girl rolled a barrel to him. Just by looking at the girl made him angry, she was so weak that she couldn't even lift a barrel of beer. Then a flashy looking guy with a full red attire walks into the pub. He sat at the table right next to Laxus. The flashy man then puts his arms around the petite waitress' waist. "Hey babe, my name is Salamander." He said.
The girl tried to get away from him, she was squirming and she said in a shaky voice, "Please. Stop." She begged. The guy didn't remove his hands. Then her eyes met Laxus, she pleaded him for help, but he just ignored her. He could honestly careless. "Stop!" she cried.
"Come on, I'm a nice guy," the guy started, "I'm a mage from Fairy Tail."
Laxus ears went up at the word "Fairy Tail". He then looked at the man's face and it wasn't anyone he knew. His blood began to boil, he was outraged that someone was trying to stain the "Fairy Tail" name. He then got up and grabbed the man by his collar, "What did you say punk?" He growled, "What guild."
"I said I'm from Fairy Tail. Are you trying to mess with me? I'm a powerful mage."
"Don't fuck with me. I've never seen you in my life." He said as he showed his Fairy Tail tattoo to the man. "RAGING BOLT!" he yelled as a ray of lightening struck the guy from above. "Don't you dare use that name again or else next time I'll kill you." He said as he left the pub.
"Wait!" The girl cried, "Thanks for saving me."
"I didn't do it to save you."
"What's your name? I'm Ciel."
He grabbed her by the neck, "Look girl, don't get friendly with me. If the guy didn't use my guild's name, I could care less if you were raped." He released her and she was crying and gasping for air.
After work, Ciel headed home. 'I wonder what he's doing now…. Wait- why do I care about him? He's a jerk. He only cares about his own imagine. Why am I even thinking of him? Whatever, I hope I'll never bump into him again.'
The next day, Ciel got up and walked to work. When she got to the pub, it was on fire. People were screaming and dumping buckets of water to try to stop it.., but it seemed impossible. A passing boy stopped and he sucked in all the fire with his mouth.
'What's going on?' Ciel thought. "Wait," she called after the boy.
"Yeah?"
"What did you do back there?"
"I ate the fire. Thanks for the food." He smiled.
"What?"
The boy then explained how he's a mage and how he could eat fire. His name was Natsu.
"I can actually do magic too… does that make me a mage?"
Natsu's eyes opened up, "What kind of magic?
"I can fly," she said. She whispered something Natsu couldn't hear and then glowing fairy wings appeared on her back and she flew around him.
"That's so cool! I want to fly too! Carry me!" He shouted.
She grabbed a hold of one of her legs causing her to lose balance and fall right on top of him. "Sorry, I think you're too heavy." She laughed.
"Oh, what else could you do?" he asked.
"I can heal small wound like bruises and cuts."
"OHHH! COME WITH ME!" Natsu grabbed her by the hand and started running. He was running so fast that she was off her feet.
Natsu then stopped in front of a building with "FAIRY TAIL" written boldly at the front. 'Wait, Fairy Tail… why does that sound so familiar?' she thought. "Umm… Natsu, I don't think I should be here."
"You can use magic! We would love to take you!" Natsu smiled and introduced her to everyone at the guild. Everyone was really nice to her and so she decided to join. Mirajane then stamped her on her left shoulder blade.
Suddenly, a large figure walked through the doors; it was the man who "saved" Ciel. "LAXUS!" Natsu yelled, "FIGHT ME!" Natsu ran towards him and suddenly, ZAP, he was zapped by lightening.
"Ha, you're 100 years too early to fight me!" He laughed.
Ciel gets a flashback to the "Salamander" guy who used "Fairy Tail". 'Oh god, what did I just do? I just joined a guild with this jerk.'
"Look we have a new member!" Makarov smiled.
Laxus turned to see that it was that weak girl. "What are you doing here?" he glared. "How could such a weak girl be in our guild!" Laxus was raging everyone could see the anger on his face.
"She's a mage." Natsu said, "She could fly! And she could heal people. Well not as well as Wendy, but still she can heal people! I brought her here."
Laxus was angry. His arteries were popping out; Laxus sends a wave of lightning bolts at Natsu. Then he walked upstairs to the second level.
"What's with him?" Ciel asked. The group explained how Laxus wants a strong guild because he's going to take over the guild one day. Ciel couldn't believe it…. How can someone that cruel be the head of such a big guild?
Before Ciel went home, she goes to the store to buy herself backless clothing or close to backless because she wanted to be able to show off the "Fairy Tail" logo. After a few hours of shopping, she heads home. When she was half-way home, she started noticing that someone was following her so she begins walking after. The foot-steps became louder and louder, she turns back to see who it is. Right at that moment the person grabs her and put a knife by her throat. He was a bearded with some guild logo on his chest. "AHAHAHA, so you're the new Fairy Tail kid." He crackles. "I thought Fairy Tail was supposed to be strong, but look at you."
Ciel struggles to get loose, but she just couldn't, she was too weak. Then suddenly, the man was struck by lightning. Ciel turns back to see Laxus there, "Laxus." She said.
"You're so weak. You're making the whole guild look bad."
"Sorry. Thanks for saving me."
"Ha? You think I saved you? You and that guy were just blocking the way." He lied and he walked off
"Wait!" Ciel cried and she ran to where he was.
"What?" He glared.
She stared at him with her big blue eyes. Laxus somehow felt paralyzed. "You have a cut on your cheek." She said. She reached her hand up to his cheek and touched it, and healed it.
Then Laxus snapped out of it, "What are you doing?" He yelled. "Don't you dare touch me again."
"Sorry, I just wanted to help." Her eyes became teary.
"I don't need help from the weak." He said ad walked off.
Ciel picked up her bags and walked back home. As she was taking a bath she thought, 'I guess he's not that bad of a guy… I mean he did save me… Even though he said it was because I was a road block… What a load of BS! He just wanted to look cool. '
Meanwhile, Laxus was at Fairy Tail. 'Why did I freeze up? To a girl like her especially?' he thought about it and pictured her eyes again. 'Her eyes were so pale blue, they looked so pure. No,they looked like diamonds' he thought. And he shivered at the thought of it. 'Wait! What am I talking about! It was just because of the sun, they were reflecting off her eyes. That stupid girl, what did she do to me!' He touched his cheeks and he smiled. He might not be aware of it because of his arrogance, but, he's falling for her.
