I really like Erza, maybe if I make another story I'll add Lucy or Lisanna. Anyway just as the tittle states, this boy is going to be a Mimic Magic user, there is very little info on that type of magic, so I'm going to add somethings. First off, I know the user can copy some else magic with Mimic magic, and use it as their on, so it's going to be like that, but the Mimic user can only copy what he/she sees, but the catch is, when they use what they see, they can send it back twice as strong, but it also consumes twice as much magic power. I'll think more about it in the next chapters.

A child with dark green hair and bright green eyes was born, unlike most children, he wasn't born in a hospital, he was born in a broken run down house, the parents of the child were extremely poor, and could not use magic, with every interview the father took, the mother was left alone to look after their child, one they could barely feed. No matter what the father did he just couldn't keep a job, so he did what he could, beg or worse case scenario, kill someone.
The mother managed to get food by going into forests, whether it was fruit or meat she didn't care, just as long as she could feed her only child. The first year was hard, and when it was winter, it got harder to live, with the little money they had, they got what they could for the winter, just barely enough for the three of them.
A few years went by and the child was healthy, but not as much as you would think, he started to get sick when he turned five. The mother did what she could, whatever she could do, if it meant her child will live on, she would do it. But even she was getting sick, the father was barely coming home now, every month he would come back to them with money, he was always dirty, and the amount he would come back with, made his wife sad, it was never enough.
That year was the toughest for the parents, because that is when the child was taken, while both parents were out, a man wearing a strange mask entered their broken down home, the sickly green haired boy looked up at the man and asked, "Who are you?"
The man walked up to the boy, "Someone who can help you." His voice was low and deceiving, the boy got up slowly, "Help? With-" The boy coughed and blood splattered on the ground, "You'll see." The man said and took the boy.
This boys name is Silas Sliver. With no knowledge of the world around him, he was taken to a place and forced to do work, this place is called the tower of Heaven.
There he met Erza Scarlet, but the others that were in the tower with him, he didn't talk to, he didn't know why he felt afraid of them, he just felt like he couldn't trust them. Erza was different, he felt as ease with her, just being around her made him calm.

Silas was six years old, it's been a year since he was taken, a year he finally realized he could not be saved, a year he spent wondering what has become of his parents.
"Silas?" Erza spoke softly and quiet enough so the guards couldn't hear them, "Yes?" Answered Silas.
"You should talk with grandpa Rob and the others more, they're worried about you. Everyone here has to stick together..." Erza picked up her pace so the guards wouldn't think they were slacking, Silas caught on and did the same, "I can't just trust anyone, not yet at least, for now I only need you as a friend..." Silas whispered to Erza, his words made Erza smile.
They worked for hours on end, and at the end of the day, they were shoved into a jail cell, but Silas was the only prisoner to be alone in a cell, every night for three years he was alone, but during the day, he would work and find a way to talk with Erza, which made the loneliness worth it.

He was now nine years of age, and he was not sick anymore, he couldn't remember his parents faces, nor could he remember what they sound like. Silas managed to talk with the others, but he was still shy around them, he only considered Erza his friend, Rob often spoke with Silas, but he wouldn't get much out of the boy, only nods and half hearted smiles.
"There is only really one way to keep going in life, it can be for the one you love or the one you care for, whether it be a friend you knew for years or someone you just met, in the end it's up to you to decide what is most important to you. Whatever keeps you going, never stop believing in it, because it might save your life someday." Rob told Silas.
Silas snuck into the cell everyone was stuffed into, he was tired of being alone. He took in Rob's words and thought of what to say, "I would be gone along time ago if I stopped believing in what Keeps me going." Growing up in a world where no one gives a shit about you makes it hard to find something to keep going. But being taken and meeting Erza Scarlet allowed him to find it, his parents kept him alive for awhile when he was with them, but he started thinking that it was his fault they lived like that, he thought that if he ran away they would get a break in life, and they would be happier.
He thought this...But didn't actually want it to happen, everything they did was for him, so thinking like that led to him crying at night, he missed them so much, but it hurt to think about them, because he couldn't remember a single thing about them. Rob liked to talk with the young ones, because that way they don't feel scared, and that way they have someone to look up to. Silas continued to talk with Rob which allowed him to talk with the others.
Rob talked about magic with Erza and Silas, no matter what Silas did, he couldn't get it, he felt like he couldn't use magic at all. Rob only encourage him, telling him "It's alright, don't give up, magic doesn't always come to you when you need it, but it will always be there, just give it time."
Silas frowned and looked at his hands, feeling like he doesn't deserve to have magic or even use it.

Silas was in his cell, he and the others started to think about breaking out, but Silas himself thought about that everyday, on the day of the escape, they were caught...The guards that caught them offered to not punish them, but only the one who came up with the plan will be punished, Silas said he was the one who came up with it, but they didn't believe him, instead they laughed and singled out one person, because that way the others can go back to work, they took Erza and sent everyone to go back and work.
They were all too afraid to go after her, Silas thought he was too weak to even consider saving her, even though having her around is what keeps him alive, his mind called him a coward which made him think that was true. His only true friend was taken away, and he can't even do anything about it. Silas was shoved back into his cell for some reason, and the others also.
A few hours later, there was explosions and men running past Silas's cell, another plan to escape has started.
His name will be pronounced like 'Si-Lis' I'm not good with writing about magic and fight scenes, but nonetheless I hope you enjoy this.
Thanks for reading! I hope you all have an awesome day!
