Hey guys! So an idea popped into my head a few hours ago that was something along the lines of 'Oh! I wonder what would happen if my main OCs met the characters of Fairy Tail!', and so, this was born. I hope I caught all of my errors and such before posting and I hope you guys like this!
Chapter 1: Preparations.
It was time, finally. The end of the year was near and it was time for final exams. Lilla grinned at herself as she walked down the hall towards the entrance to this year's brand new battle arena, receiving many 'good luck's and smiles along the way. The exams were being held there as a way to honor the school's newest building. Building? Hah, more like stadium. But even the word stadium made it sound much smaller than it actually was.
As the blonde rounded the corner and into the locker room, she shifted into her cover-up form, a tiger, and grumbled a bit. She snorted as she padded to the back of the locker room and to the showers. The other two girls were already here, which caused the tigress to grumble again, especially as the stench of wolf hit her nostrils. She snorted and rolled her eyes, as if trying to shoo the scent away.
The aquamarine-eyed brunette sitting on the bench in front of the showers raised her hand and waved at the tigress. "Morning Lilla," she said gently, eyes sparkling with delight while the tigress simply rolled hers and padded on by her and into a stall. Espeo laughed to herself as she pulled her brown hair over her shoulders and played with it a bit, twisting small pieces of it into tight braids causing the purple bits to become more noticeable.
"Where's Xandra? I can smell her but she's not here?" Lilla called from inside the stall. She'd shifted back to her human form and turned the knob on the shower, waiting for the water to warm up a bit before turning it all the way on.
Espeo looked over her shoulder towards the stall, as if Lilla would be able to hear her better even though she knew it was unnecessary. "Her bag is here, I think she went to talk to someone though. We have a few hours, she'll be back eventually."
Lilla nodded to herself and didn't respond. The third girl was probably back in her dorm sleeping, considering how early it was. She shrugged off her curiosity and pulled the shower knob a bit so the water's pressure would increase.
Espeo sighed to herself before standing and walking over to her locker. Since she was a student athlete, she had her own specific locker in the locker room. Lilla and Xandra had their own lockers as well and they happened to be the lockers on either side of her own. She chuckled at that thought, never really thinking about that before. "How odd," she muttered before looking herself over in the tiny mirror connected to the door. She blinked a few times before scrunching her face up and laughing at herself. It was far too early for this, why was she even here already anyways?
The brunette simply shrugged at herself and began rummaging through all of the clothes in her locker. What would she wear for the exams today? Something she could maneuver in easily and maybe something sexy just for the hell of it. Hey, she had a reputation to uphold. "Doesn't everyone?" she muttered to herself and then sighed, looking in the mirror again. She shook her head at herself and whispered, "You're so disappointing."
Outside in the Academy Gardens, a girl with orange and black tiger-striped hair was leaning against a large boulder that had a few words engraved at the top. 'You will be remembered, always.' Beside where the girl was sitting, an infinity symbol with the name Mia inside of it had been sketched with silver paint. The brown eyed girl looked over at the writing and put her hand on the symbol. "If there's anything you can do to help me today, Mia, please feel free."
Xandra chuckled to herself and smiled at the writing for a moment before looking around the gardens. Students were beginning to pop up here and there, and she couldn't help but wonder how long she'd been outside. She should be getting ready for her exam and was sure Lilla and Espeo were already in the locker room.
She stood up and stretched her arms over her head a bit before looking over her shoulder and down at the symbol once more. "You know, it's funny. I would've never expected you to make them my friends. The four of us never really got along." Xandra sighed and shook her head, a small smile playing on her lips. "You and I stayed away from Lilla as much as possible. Espeo, she was always too caught up in lacrosse and training and she had the Shifters. Something about always needing to prove something to her family, I think." Xandra chuckled and smiled at the boulder before walking off towards the school's new arena. "I would've never thought that the two of them would be the only ones to give a shit when I lost you," she muttered as she made her way down the new, stone path. "We were the most powerful team the school had ever seen, and today? Today, I'll make sure that they never forget our names, Mia."
