Season 1 Chapter 1
"We're back!" Natsu shouted as he kicked open the door to what was known as the headquarters of the infamous guild 'Fairy Tail'. His friend and guild team member, Happy flew in after him repeating the same greeting. The two were greeted back by the other guild members who were occupying the first-floor tavern area of the place. Natsu ignored them as he walked with the expression of anger on his face towards one of the tables that was currently occupied by a strange man that had huge rabbit front teeth sticking out of his mouth. The man saw Natsu and gave him a smirk.
"Heard you caused some trouble Natsu!" he said with a laugh. "You nearly destroyed all of Harge-!" the guy continued but was suddenly cut off by Natsu who suddenly air kicked him in the face. The poor schmuck was now crushed under the rubble of the wooden table.
"Krov, you bastard!" Natsu shouted as he glared at rubble holding his fist in the air. "That info about the Salamander you told me was all bullshit, wasn't it?" he shouted his face turning almost into an angry animal.
Krov pushed some of the pieces of the wooden table off of him and glared at the pink haired punk. "How the Hell would I know?" Krov shouted. "I only told you some of the rumors I heard that was going around! Not my fault that they were all lies!" he shouted as he got up from the rubble. "So don't go kicking me just because you didn't find what you were looking for you asshole!"
"What did you just call me?!" Natsu shouted back getting more pissed at his fellow guild member. "You wanna fight?!" he added before he did one of his typical roars and started fighting Krov, which only resulted in getting some of the other guild members caught in the crossfire and suddenly starting a huge brawl.
Ten minutes later…
A young blonde haired girl walked into the guild hall and was in awe of the place. "Wow!" she said softly to herself. "I can't believe I am actually standing in the real Fairy Tail guild Hall!" she added before she looked around just now noticing the huge brawl. 'Have they been going like this all day?' she thought as she then noticed a young man with emo cut spiky black hair was practically naked except his underwear. 'Oh my God, that is Gray Fullbuster! The ice wizard of Fairy Tail!' she thought in her head as she freaked out about Gray being nearly naked.
"Gray…" said a female voice from the bar area. "Your clothes are off again..." she said before taking a sip of her drink. Gray twitched at her words which resulted a knowing smirk on her pretty face. "This is why I say all the men here have no class," she softly muttered to herself, not caring if anyone heard her.
Lucy softly gasped as she recognized the woman at the bar. 'That is Cana Alberona! Isn't she rumored to be the biggest drinker in all of the Fairy Tail guild!?' she thought in her mind before Cana confirmed the rumor to Lucy, drinking out of what had appeared to be a heavy keg. "Isn't that like TWENTY GALLONS?" she said in a surprised and somewhat shocked tone of voice. "How is her liver able to take all of that booze?" Lucy asked herself before she heard someone walk up behind her. She turned around fast to see a tan-skinned man with white spiky hair with a little scar below his right eye. 'OH MY GOD! He's Elfman! He will solve any kind of job with his fists!' Lucy thought nearly frozen in awe as she saw him. "And he is Mirajane's little brother!" she softly whispered.
"All of this whining and crying before noon? What a bunch of wimps!" he said in disgust as he saw the brawl before him. "Ha! If you are calling yourself men then you fight with your bare hands!" he said as he looked at Gray and Natsu, who were currently arguing with one another.
"SHUT UP!" they both said as they both gave Elfman a combo punch to the face, making him fly across the room.
"Oh! We have a newcomer!" a soft angelic voice spoke from behind Lucy.
Lucy turned around and her eyes widened as she saw the one member of Fairy Tail that was one of the most popular. "Mirajane!" Lucy said trying her best to contain her inner fangirl. "In the flesh!" she added as a little bit of her inner fangirl came out.
Mirajane smiled sweetly at Lucy as she was carrying a tray of drinks. "Welcome to Fairy Tail," she said to Lucy as she sat the tray of drink down on the bar. "It's nice to see a fresh face around here."
Lucy nearly squealed with joy at Mirajane's words but then remembered about the brawl that was occurring right beside them. "Uh….Shouldn't we try to stop them from fighting?" she asked.
Mirajane looked to where the brawl was, smiling her angelic smile before she answered. "Oh don't worry about them. They are always like this, just wait a few minutes and they will run out of steam soon," she replied looking back at Lucy.
The brawl continued for what seemed like twenty minutes when suddenly, one by one, Cana, Natsu, Gray, Elfman, and a few others started to conjure up their magic powers. Lucy started to panic about what damage they could do to the guild hall. But as soon as she started to suggest to Happy and Mirajane that they should try to stop them, a giant black jester looking foot appeared out of nowhere and stomped hard on the floor.
The foot was attached to a large black giant with glowing white eyes. "SILENCE, ALL OF YOU! STOP THIS AT ONCE!" the giant shouted his booming voice echoing in the guild's walls nearly shaking the entire building. Everyone went DEAD SILENT and stopped fighting after the giant spoke. Lucy's jaw dropped at the sight of the sudden appearance of the giant.
"Oh, you were here all along, Master?" Mirajane asked suddenly surprised. "Have you just returned from your journey?" she asked him. "We all thought you wouldn't be back till later this evening," she said to the giant as it turned to look at her.
The giant nodded his head in reply. "I returned earlier than expected," the giant said to Mirajane. "You will see why soon enough, but first…" he said before he looked at Lucy. "A new recruit are you, young lady?" he asked Lucy. Lucy quickly nodded her head in reply, trembling in fear before the giant. The giant laughed with amusement. "Ha! It would seem today is the day for new faces," he said before suddenly the giant started to shrink into a dwarf-sized man. "Welcome to the Fairy Tail guild, young lady!" he said to Lucy, who was surprised by his actual size. "I am Makarov Dreyar, the Guild Master of Fairy Tail."
Lucy was amazed that this little old man was the Guild Master of the famous Fairy Tail. "Pleased to meet you, sir," she said replied.
Makarov smiled at her before suddenly frog-sprinting into the air landing on the railing that was on the second floor of the building. "Now then," he said as he landed on the stair railing. Makarov cleared his throat before he spoke to the guild members below. "You scoundrels have gone and done it again!" he shouted at them as he pulled out a small handful of papers waving it in front of him. "Look at all of this damn paperwork that the council sent me! And all of them are complaints!" he said as he waved the papers in his hand. "All you rascals do is make the council angry at me!" he shouted at the guild members below. He grounded his teeth for a minute before he took a deep breath to calm himself down. "However…" he said aloud before he held the papers out before he and set them on fire. "Fuck what the council says!" he shouted to them before he tossed the burning papers before him, which Natsu jumped up and gobbled them up like a dog would fetch a doggie treat. "Now listen up!" he said to them as a commander would do before his soldiers.
The Guild members remained silent and looked up at Makarov hanging onto his every word.
"Magic is an unreasonable power, but it is born from reason! Not some miraculous ability that only a few can achieve! It is a combination of the spirit that flows in each and every one of us that flows with the spirit within nature itself literally into physical form. And one that takes a strong mind and focus! In actual fact, magic is the pouring out of one's entire soul! One simply cannot progress in the way of magic by being mindful of the watching eyes from above! So do not be afraid of those fools up on the council, and follow the path you believe is the right path for yourself! For that is what it means to be a Fairy Tail wizard!" he says to them before pointing up his index finger indicating that Fairy tail is number one, which resulted everyone following suit and cheering like warriors who cheer before going off into battle.
"Now then," Makarov said before he took in a deep breath. "GET THIS PLACE CLEANED UP! I HAVE TWO NEW SPECIAL RECRUITS COMING IN AND THE LAST THING WE NEED IS TO GIVE THEM A BAD FIRST IMPRESSION OF FAIRY TAIL!" he shouted to them like an angry father would telling a child to clean their room. Everyone down below started to scurry like rats, cleaning the place as fast as they could.
"Guess you are not the only new recruit today Lucy," Happy said as he sat on a table eating a fish.
As the members were running around, the main doors of the guild hall suddenly opened causing everyone to stop where they were and looked to see who was coming inside. They watched as a large black hound padded into the guild hall, its dark blue eyes scanning all that was within in its sight. Its fur was as black as the midnight sky, shining almost like silk but the edges looked ragged, making the hound look threatening and dangerous at the same time.
The hound was soon followed by a figure dressed in a scaled ocean blue hooded long sleeved long coat, that nearly looked like it was black and was covering up a light blue ocean colored dress that was similar to the color of ice. The hood of the long coat covered half of the person's face leaving only a mouth, a chin and the V neck cut of the front that hinted that the person was a woman. The female figure walked in slowly, wearing worn out sandaled feet, carrying a large bag on one shoulder and was dragging in a special rolling wheeled suitcase that seemed to fit with her attire more than the other bag.
"Ah!" Makarov said as he looked at the two new guests. "You are early!" he said before he frog leaped into the air and landed a few feet before the two strangers. "Sorry about the mess, it seems these kids got a bit….antsy while I was away," he said softly chuckling as he rubbed the back of his head before spreading his arms to them. "But anyway, welcome to the Fairy Tail Guild!" he added before he looked to the others. "Listen, children," he told them. "These are our two new recruits I told you that were coming today!" he explained.
Natsu looked at the two before he stood up and spoke. "Hey Master, where is the other recruit?" he asked Makarov. "I only see this girl and her pet dog here," he said looking confused.
The hound looked at the pink haired firebreather before it suddenly spoke. "Who are you calling a dog, Salamander?" the hound spoke with a male voice as its fur started to steam up and slowly bit by bit, it's entire body morphed into a black mist shrinking down to the floor for a split second before suddenly a black form started to rise out of the mist. The black form soon took the figure of a human and slowly revealed a tall male with pale skin and ocean blue eyes that were of similar as to the woman's coat. He had midnight black hair that was down to the middle of his backside. And was wearing a skin-tight crimson red long sleeved undershirt with a black hooded sleeveless jacket on top of it. Around his waist, he wore a chain belt that held his black cargo pants up and was accompanied by a pair of black heavy duty combat boots covering his feet.
The Fairy Tail Guild members all gasped and were in awe as they watched the hound transform into a man, especially Lucy.
Natsu looked dumbfounded before he said the expected response. "I stand corrected," he said before he softly chuckled. "Guess he is going to be one Hell of a Guild member."
Krov looked at the two new recruits with disapproving eyes. "So the guy is impressive, but what of the girl? I mean, look at her! She looks helpless and weak!" he said before he pointed his thumb at her. "How is she suppose to be a part of Fairy Tail when she looks more like a damsel in distress?" he added before he scoffed at her.
Makarov glared at Krov. "You will hold your tongue boy!" he said to Krov. "Do you think I would recruit this girl if she was not able to be of help? I hate to break it to you, you idiot, but this girl is more than what she appears to be," he said in the mystery girl's defense. He then glanced at the girl with an apologetic expression on his face. "I hate to put you on the spot my dear, but would you be so kind as to show my children here your special gift?" he asked her in a calm and sweet tone of voice, sounding like a father soothing a young and fragile child.
The girl smiled angelically at his words before she then tilted her head to the left as if she was trying to sense something. "Hmmm…" she said softly as she puckered her lips. Her lips then formed back into the angelic smile. She then dropped the large bag she was carrying over her shoulder onto the wooden floor. It made a huge slamming thud, which indicated it had to be really heavy. The girl then went down on one knee to the floor, laying her hand palm open on the ground. "Come on out…" she softly cooed. "These people won't hurt you now. They've stopped fighting," she added. "Don't be afraid, I am not going to harm you," she said.
As soon as her words were spoken, the soft sound of clawed feet patted on the wooden floor. Everyone looked around as they heard the sound, trying to figure out what could be making it. Makarov and Lucy kept their eyes on the girl both knowing what was about to happen.
Happy looked around and happened to glance at the girl's direction when he suddenly gasped. "WOW! Look at that!" he said cheerfully.
Everyone then suddenly looked at the girl and looked shocked as the mystery girl was holding a rat in her hand. She was gently petting the creature's head as Makarov slowly walked towards her. "This girl has a very rare ability that I have never seen before in my entire life. There used to be legends of this kind of talent but many people believe such a thing to be nothing but that of fairy tales," he said before he chuckled. "You all can imagine my surprise when I first met her and saw her talking to a few birds like they were old girlfriends chatting about the latest gossip!" he added before he burst out a laugh. "Among summoning them to her and talking to them, she can form a special link with the animal in question and see what they see, hear what they hear, and feel what they feel. Hence why this young man here came in the form of a hound," Makarov said before looking at the boy. "Am I correct to assume that bit is true as the legend says?" he asked him.
The man chuckled as he transformed back into a great hound. "Indeed old man, that is why I entered in that form. As a hound she is able to use her ability to its fullest extent, my senses become hers, allowing her to see and feel the world as I do," the boy replied in his hound form speaking perfect English.
Krov scoffed at that. "So she can talk to animals, big deal. Not like that is going to help her in a fight," he said as he dug his hands into his pockets.
Lucy glared at him feeling a bit mad at this guild member. "You shouldn't talk to her like that! If you heard Master Makarov earlier, this girl is more than just someone who can talk to animals, and I know that he speaks the truth!" she shouted at him before she looked to the girl. "I know because I have met her once before when I was a kid, and she is a water wizard! Or as she calls herself; a water dancer," she explained to the others who looked back to the girl who was smirking at Lucy's words.
"My, my, Senso," the mystery girl said to the hound. "It seems other than Master Makarov, this girl knows who I am," she added before she settled the rat gently down on the floor. As she slowly stood back up, the girl held out her hand summoning her magic symbol. When she stood straight up she slowly twirled her index finger slowly in a circle. The guild hall suddenly became filled with the sound of whooshes and dripping sounds as the girl continued to twirl her finger but this time she was slowly lifting her hand above her head with the finger still twirling. All around them the guild members watched as all of the liquid from all of the spilled drinks and the cups that were never knocked over during the fight began to circle around above the girl's head forming into what looked like a water spirit dragon. Suddenly the girl's finger stopped twirling, her hand forming into the pose of her only pointing upwards. The girl then smirked before she quickly pointed down directly at Krov. "Hope you can hold your liquor," she said before all of a sudden the water spirit dragon above her flew directly at Krov and went directly into his gaping mouth. The water not only went into Krov's mouth but it also covered Krov's entire body soaking him in nothing but the mixed-up booze which resulted in him falling down to the ground.
The now named Senso looked on with amusement in his dark eyes. "What a waste of good booze on a loud-mouthed lightweight. Couldn't you have done that on the woman with the keg of beer? At least then it wouldn't have gone to waste," he said with feigned annoyance. He then looked back at the girl. "Why couldn't you save me some of that stuff? I was actually thirsty from walking on all fours coming here," he asked the girl nearly making a dog's whine. Senso then transformed back into a human.
The girl smirked at Senso. "Senso, have you forgotten the last time I gave you booze of mixed quality? You ended up drunk and nearly destroyed the whole village we were staying in at the time!" she replied giving the hound boy some scolding. She then crossed her arms, moving one of her hands to facepalm herself. "I can still remember hearing those poor souls you chased after because you asked one of them if they wanted to have a good time," she added before she shivered in a way that expressed to everyone that she was still grossed out about it.
Senso grinned wickedly as he looked at the guild members with amusement as they looked at him with confused faces. "Oh, they were nothing but weaklings, thinking they could handle me. They survived did they not?" he said, his grin widening at the shocked faces of some of the more kind-hearted guild members.
The girl sighed again before she moved her hand away from her face. "I apologise for everyone here in Fairy tail, but just to warn you all," she said before she pointed in Senso's direction. "This guy here loves pain and suffering. Thinks it is the most hilarious thing in the world and also is always, and I do mean always is looking for a hell of a good fight," she said before she lowered her pointing finger. "Hence why he has the nickname 'Hellhound'."
The battle-hungry man chuckled, never losing his smirk. "Ah, how pain makes my mind, body, and soul feel so good," he said in a swooning like manner, his behavior creeping everyone out. Well, everyone except Natsu.
Natsu laughed at that. "Ha ha ha! Sounds to me that this guy loves to fight like I do!" he said as he continued to laugh. Natsu then stopped and looked at the girl. "But there is one thing I don't get," he said before he pointed at the girl. "Why does this girl need to use the ability to talk to animals and see what they see and all that? Using her water magic is more useful in a fight then talking to animals," he said explaining his confusion to the best that he could. "I mean, it's not like she can use her own eyes right?" he asked.
The girl's face went a bit gloomy at Natsu's questions. "Actually, about that," she said to Natsu with a sad smile before she moved her hands to her hood, pulling it back to uncover her angelic looking face, but her eyes which had strange red colored circles around them were closed. Her long aquamarine hair with a tint of grey streaks swooshed down to reveal its length as it stopped midway down her back. She slowly opened her eyes to reveal to all of the guild members that her eyes had no eye color, in other words… "I'm blind," she said with a sad smile on her face.
Natsu was shocked along with most of the guild members before he started to grin and then began to laugh, not a cruel or a sarcastic laugh but one of excitement. As the members looked at him in confusion he started to calm down with a big grin on his face. "Alright, you're even better than I thought you'd be! To be able to fight with a handicap such as that makes you even stronger than before! I can't wait until I can have a sparring match with you!" he said in a happy tone of voice.
The girl smiled at him softly giggling. "I'm looking forward to that as well," she said with her own happy angelic smile that made almost every perverted male in the guild almost swoon before her. And they all almost started to compliment about her before they noticed a certain young man giving them the 'just try and I will kill you' penance stare.
Makarov then chuckled, laughing heartily. "You see my dear? I told you that there would be some people here in my guild that would respect and appreciate talents such as yours!"
The girl smirked. "Hopefully a certain mutt won't get us kicked out this time," she said her eyes closed again and her left eye twitched somewhat at her words. "Cause I don't want to be kicked out of something for the THIRD time!" she said before she turned her head to where she smelled Senso. "By the way Senso, you need to wash your clothes again. I can still smell the burning smoke from one of the Renegade Guild members attacks…" she said in a scolding manner, which made some of the guild members chuckle softly at her comment.
Senso just kept grinning as he had been before, not at all fazed by the scolding he was getting. "I have no regrets Scylla, none whatsoever," he said without a hint of remorse. The now named Scylla merely twitched her eye.
Scylla then smiled as she then took a deep breath and fanned herself. "Man, did it just get hot in here?" she said before she then started to undo her long coat buttons, undoing her coat to reveal her ice colored dress that was hidden underneath. The dress looked similar to either what a gypsy dancer would wear or a greek toga since the gown was flowing like water around her body. The men around her suddenly had hearts in their eyes and some of them were blowing steam out of their ears and noses as they watched her. Scylla then looked at Makarov, or at least where she believed he was from her sense of smell. "I do hope there is a place for me to stay here…" she said with a sad expression on her face. "I have been looking for a place to call home for so long…" she added before she started to pick up the large heavy bag over her shoulder again. "Would there be anyone that would be so kind as to take me to my room? I would look for it myself but…" she said before she gave a nervous chuckle at the hint of her bad pun to her being blind.
Makarov had steam coming out of his nose as he tried to contain his perverted side recalling the last time he tried to flirt with Scylla when they first met, which resulted in him getting to see just how sharp Senso's claws and teeth really were. "Of course someone will help you, my dear! But first please introduce yourself to the guild so we can proceed to induct you and your companion into the guild," he said to her with his hands on his hips in a manly like pose.
Scylla smiled at him before she then opened her eyes to 'glance' at where she believed the guild members to be. "Of course! I am Scylla Arete, also known as Charybdis, whirlpool of the sea," she said introducing herself in a ladylike manner. "Please take care of me!" she said as she tilted her head to the side and gave all of them her cutest and most angelic smile. And again all of the men in the guild had hearts in their eyes as they couldn't help but be affected by her cuteness.
Senso was not nearly as proper as his companion, crossing his arms over his chest giving the members an evil glare and grin. "My name is Senso Hiru, also known as the Hellhound as Scylla was so kind to point out earlier. And a warning to all of you boys, keep your perverted eyes off her unless you want to lose what makes you a man, is that clear?" he asked/demanded with a vicious glare as black mist formed around him shadowing his body and face giving his eyes a ghostly glow to them.
Scylla sighed heavily as she heard all of the men in the guild flinch and gasped in fear.
Lucy cautiously laughed at this, a bit nervous if she couldn't decide whether that Senso had a sister complex or was just that protective of a friend over Scylla. "I forgot he was like this too when I first met them," she said to Mirajane who was standing next to her. "I might want to warn Natsu to be careful around him...But then again Natsu might actually welcome Senso as an opponent," she added before she walked slowly to Scylla. "By the way, it is good to see you two again Scylla," she said as she stood before Scylla giving her a friendly smile and glanced over to Senso giving him the same friendly smile.
Looking at the young blonde in front of him, Senso couldn't help but laugh at the sight of a familiar face. "My, my, it has been quite some time since we have last seen you, right Miss Lucy," he said with a slightly less vicious grin that has dawned his face since the two had arrived at the guild.
Mirajane slowly came up to the three of them holding a hot brand with the Fairy Tail's symbol on the end. "Time to get your marks!" she said with a smile. "Where would you like them?" she asked.
Lucy smiled happily as she presented her hand to Mirajane. "On my hand please!" she said excitedly. But her face turned instantly from happy to scared. "It won't hurt will it?" she asked Mirajane, her eyes nearly filled with tears. "I don't handle pain very well," she explained.
Mirajane smiled at Lucy, encouraging the new girl to not be afraid. "Oh, don't worry," she said in a soothing voice. "The branding doesn't hurt. It is a magical branding iron that doesn't cause any pain whatsoever," she said before she rested Lucy's hand on a table nearby. "Hold still," she said as she lifted the branding symbol onto Lucy's hand and settled the brand on her hand. A soft 'bring' sound came from the brand as Mirajane put the Fairy Tail mark on Lucy's hand. "And with this, you are now an official member of Fairy Tail," she said with a happy smile.
Lucy's eyes filled with stars as she looked at her hand with the now official Fairy Tail mark. "Wow!" she said with joy. She quickly ran to Natsu who was standing in front of the request board to show him her mark quickly forgetting about Senso's comment about her.
Scylla smiled at the sound of Lucy's excitement. "Glad to hear such joy these days," she said before she turned her smile into a frown. "Hard to find such a thing when one is traveling all around the place and can't see much of the world," she said before she sniffed the air to figure out where Mirajane was. She then turned her head facing Mirajane's direction and slowly walked to her. "Mind if I go next?" she asked her.
Mirajane smiled at Scylla. "Sure," she said before she looked over Scylla curiously. "Uh...Do you have a particular place you want the mark?" she asked. "And please, don't let it be your private area," she warned. "The council made sure we wouldn't put the mark on those areas," she explained to Scylla.
Scylla smiled at Mirajane before she let go of her rolling suitcase and reached one hand out in search for the table. "Don't worry, I know where I want it," Scylla said as she found a chair and pulled it out. Scylla then sat on the chair and again hefted the large bag over her shoulder onto the floor. She then leaned forward slightly, undoing one of her sandal shoes. "Thought about it on the way here actually," Scylla said as she leaned back up and started to lift up the skirt of her dress revealing only the calf portion of her leg to Mirajane. About half of the men that were watching had steam coming out of their noses, thinking that Scylla might've chosen her inner thigh as the place for the mark. Sadly they were disappointed when Scylla stopped moving up her skirt. She leaned forward and pointed to the inner portion of her ankle. "My ankle is where I want it," she said to Mirajane with an innocent smile. "If it isn't too much trouble."
Mirajane giggled at Scylla's innocent comment. "No, it isn't Scylla," she said before she walked to Scylla and branded her ankle with the Fairy Tail mark, as Mirajane pulled the brander away the mark turned into a seafoam color than pink as Lucy's was. "There you go," she said in her most cheerful voice. "Welcome to the Fairy Tail Guild!" she added with a smile. Mirajane then looked towards Senso. "So, where do you want your mark Senso?" she asked him.
Scylla smirked at Mirajane's question as she leaned forward to tie her sandal back on. "I think I have a pretty good idea on where he wants it. Considering I know him all too well," she said, nearly scoffing.
Mirajane looked at Scylla confused. "What do you mean by that?" she asked. She then looked at Senso curiously before looking him over. "Where would he want it, may I dare ask?" she said to Scylla. "Surely not somewhere..." she started to say with a slight blush on her cheeks.
Scylla chuckled at Mirajane's questions. "No, no. It's not what you think it is," she said before she stood up from her chair. "Since Senso is nicknamed 'Hellhound', he would prefer to have his mark be somewhere that is the only fitting place for a hound to be marked," she said to Mirajane explaining to her Senso's way of thinking. Scylla then picked up the large bag over her shoulder before she used her free hand to point to her neck. "The Fairy Tail's mark would be like a collar to him. So my best bet on where he wants the mark is somewhere like the back of his neck," she continued before lowering her hand to search for her rolling suitcase blindly.
Senso smirked at Scylla before he looked at Mirajane with a wicked smile. "She hit the nail on the head there," he said before he walked up to Mirajane. "I want the mark on the back of my neck," he said before he turned around, knelt before her and held up his hair like one would in a ponytail, waiting for Mirajane to put the mark on him.
Mirajane gave a somewhat shaky smile before she branded the back of Senso's neck. As the brand touched his skin, the sound of sizzling skin was heard through the guild as the members saw Senso grit his teeth in irritation. Mirajane pulled the branding stamp back in shock as she saw the edges of his dark red guild mark were burning bright hot, melting the skin of his neck.
Scylla heard and smelled the burning skin, which she instantly dropped both of the bags she was carrying as her body started to tremble subconsciously. The sound of a young child screaming echoed in her ears as the smell and sound brought back a memory that still haunted her for years. Her eyes were wide open and her face was white as a sheet, which made her face look almost ghost-like, which made the guild members look at her with concern, and were confused as to why she was acting in such a manner.
Noticing her reaction, Senso grabbed her and brought her close to him in a brotherly like embrace, whispering to her. "Calm down Sis, its ok. They aren't here, we haven't seen them in years. They can't hurt you," he said in a hushed tone. While most of the guild members couldn't hear what Senso was saying, Natsu could with his enhanced hearing but kept it to himself as he saw this was an obvious personal matter that the two did not want the members to know.
Scylla released a shaky breath as her body slowly stopped trembling in Senso's arms. She took two more deep breaths before she stepped back out of Senso's arms. "Sorry about that…" she said before she turned her head, sensing that there were eyes on them. She gave an embarrassed laugh. "Sorry everyone, I am just so tired from the long journey that I fear that all of my energy ran out on me for a moment there," she lied convincing the other guild members that she was all right and there was nothing freaky going on with her. She then gave a concerned look. "That reminds me, can someone help us find a good place to stay? I'm afraid we only just arrived in town and don't know much about it…" she said to them.
Lucy picked up on this, looking for a place of her own. "Yeah, I can help you with that. I'm looking for a place to stay myself and I'd be happy to help you as well," she said with a happy smile.
Scylla smiled with joy. "Thanks, Lucy. We appreciate it," Scylla said with a grateful smile before she then looked a bit worried. "Oh! Where are my bags?" she asked with a slightly worried tone. "I dropped them in my drowsy state. Can anyone here bring them to me please?" she said giving a cute sad pout.
Gray walked up to the pair carrying both bags, fully clothed. "Here they are, Scylla. I got them before they got lost. Might want to be careful next time you drop them. Unlike myself, I wouldn't stoop so low as to steal from a blind person. But I can't say the same for some of the other members here," he said with a smirk as he handed Senso the large carrying back. "Gotta say though, that bag was heavier than I thought it was. I'm impressed you can carry it with such ease," he said as he handed the other bag to Scylla.
Natsu looked at the three before he walked over to them, not believing the bags to be that heavy as Gray was saying. "What are you talking about stripper, they don't look that heavy," he said before looking at Senso and held out his hand with a questioning look in his eyes. Senso, knowing what he wanted to oblige him, handing him the bag.
As soon as the large bag landed in Natsu's hand, the weight of the bag caused his arm to fall halfway down to his stomach, taking him by surprise. He lifted the bag back up to shoulder level and looked at the bag in awe. "Wow, didn't expect that to happen. What do you guys have in here? Pounds of food?" he asked.
Scylla sighed heavily before she facepalmed herself. "Oh, no….Not another one who thinks with his stomach," she muttered under her breath. She then moved her hand and looked at Natsu. "Actually that has everything I own in there," she told Natsu. "Practically everything that we could put in a house is in that bag. I had received the bag as a gift from a former client of mine who thought I should have something that could help me contain all of my things without having to pay for a moving van," she added explaining to Natsu just how much stuff was really in that bag.
Natsu handed the bag back to Senso, before looking at the other bag. "What about that other bag? What is in it, where is your stuff Senso?" he asked.
Senso shrugged his shoulders before gesturing to himself. "This is all of my stuff. All I need are the clothes on my back, somewhere to sleep, food, and be near Scylla and I'm fine. Don't need much else. The bag holds our tents, her sleeping bag, and some supplies we need while traveling," he said with an honest carefree smirk.
Scylla smirked at him. "I get the feeling you two are going to be good friends, Natsu," she said with a smile before glancing in Senso's direction. "Senso gets bored pretty easily, but once he has someone to play games with, he can be a fun guy to hang out with...Most of the time," she said with a teasing smirk. "Ain't that right, Senso?" she asked him.
Senso just grinned in response while patting Scylla on the head mockingly. "But of course. I'm a great guy to be around and play games with if by games you mean beating people to a bloody pulp that piss me off then yes," he said sarcastically.
Scylla's eyes closed as the corner of her lip twitched at the patting on the head.
Lucy softly laughed cautiously at Senso's response and manner at how he acts with Scylla. 'Something tells me Natsu and Senso are going to be a handful in the future,' she thought in her mind. "Well, shall we get going?" she asked as she picked up her suitcase and laced arms with Scylla in a friendly manner. "I think we might be able to get a good house soon if we hurry!" she added before walking with Scylla not knowing if Senso followed them or not. "Hopefully the places they have for sale are cozy," she added with a friendly smile.
Scylla smiled back. "I hope so too," she said before she moved her head in the direction ahead of them. Not knowing that the two girls were giving some of the guild members some ideas…
TWO HOURS LATER…
Scylla finished unpacking the last of her things in her new house that was six blocks away from the guild and this big house was along the beach line that the Fairy Tail Guild occupied. "That is the last of it," she said as she moved her large carrying bag under her bed. She wiped her forehead. "Good thing that client told me that the bag unpacks things by the room the owner asks to be unpacked," she said before she picked up her traveling bag and sat on her bed. "Never thought we were going to find a place this reasonably priced," she said as she untied her sandals.
Scylla tossed her sandals to the floor before she stood up and stretched. "Hmm...Man, I am in dire need for a shower," she said before she slipped off her coat and walked to where she remembered where her bedroom closet was. She hung up her coat and started to brush her hand against her racks of clothes and chose out an outfit she had recognized to be one of the similar color of her current attire. "This will do," she said as she walked back to her bed and set up the outfit on top of it. "I am going to wash up before we head back to the guild Senso. So feel free to catch a quick nap," she said as she walked into the bathroom, shutting and locking the door. Scylla then undid her clothes and began to take a much deserved hot shower.
Once the bathroom door was closed, Senso went to his bed and took out his MP3-Player, plugging in his headphones and listening to some rock music. For some time he listened to the music, losing himself in the beat and hum of the music. He found himself at peace to the symphony playing in his ears.
Scylla softly hummed as she washed, using her water magic to help her thoroughly wash her long hair and body. She sighed in pleasure as she turned the water off and began to wrap her hair up in a towel like a turban when she heard a sound coming from her bedroom. She quickly grabbed her bathrobe so to cover herself. "Senso? Is that you? If that was you trying to scare me as a joke that wasn't funny!" she said aloud in a slightly shaken voice as she slipped her robe on and tied it.
Scylla slowly opened the door to her bedroom and slowly walked out into her bedroom, which was next door to Senso's room. Cautiously, she stopped in the doorway sniffing the air to check if there was anyone in her room. She couldn't catch a scent since her bedroom window was wide open, blowing in the sea air, so she tried to focus on her hearing.
"Hey Scylla, done with your shower are you?" she heard a voice say to her from her side of the room. Scylla grabbed her walking stick and held it like a sword at the intruder whom she recognized as Natsu. She pointed the tip of the walking stick to his neck, it's silver arrowhead-shaped tip looking a bit threatening up close to Natsu's eye line.
Senso looked up from his place on his bed before turning off his music and sitting up. "Calm down Scylla, I let him in. He wanted to see our new place, so I saw no harm in indulging him. So put it down and leave the man alone. He said he had a job for us to join on anyways," he said grabbing Scylla's walking stick and putting it back down before turning into his hound form and connecting with her.
She used her animal ability to see through Senso's eyes. "Sorry, about that Natsu," she said before she pointed a finger at him. "Just to warn you next time, I don't like to be sneaked up on or surprised like that," she added before she walked to her bed and sat on it. "Being blind makes me easy prey to some, and the last time someone snuck up on me like that...Let's just say I don't plan on being in that kind of position again," she said as she crossed her legs and arms, sitting in a criss-cross manner. "So, you have a job and want us to accompany you?" she asked him.
Natsu raised his hands up in a placating manner before he noticed the white glow around Scylla's grey eyes. "Ok, I get it. Don't surprise you, but why are your eyes glowing white, they didn't do that earlier at the guild," he asked with confusion and interest, wanting to learn more about his newest guildmates.
Scylla smiled at his question. "Probably because you didn't see my eyes glow since I had a hood covering half of my face at that time," she answered with a smirk. "And my eyes do this whenever I use my ability to bond to other animals. As of right at this moment, I am using Senso's eyes to see you," she explained pointing to Senso to prove a point. "I see what he sees, hears what he hears, smells what he smells and all that," she added before she tilted her head to the side. "Gotta say, I pictured you to look more like a dragon from the sound of your voice then be a guy with pink colored hair," she said almost sounding disappointed.
At the indigent squawk from Natsu, caused Senso to laugh. "Don't let his appearance fool you Scylla, I can sense a lot of power coming from him. Ancient and primal power, he may not look like it, but he can match me in power alone, we'll have to see who can use theirs better once this mission is done. You up for a spar after this Salamander?" he asked with a challenging grin on his face, excited of the prospect of facing someone who could give him a challenge after so long of fight weak opponents for so long. His senses have been on high since he had met the Fire Dragon Slayer Mage and his instincts were telling him to be wary of him, not of the dragon, but of something else, something he couldn't identify.
"Been in this town for five minutes and now he has the hunger for battle," she muttered with a smirk before she looked at Natsu again waiting for his answer.
Once Natsu got over his shock of Scylla's statement of him, he grinned with a fire in his eyes. "Oh, hell yes! I've been fired up to have a fight with either of you two!" he said loudly, the excitement clear and evident in his voice.
Scylla sighed heavily at that. "Do you still want us to come with you on your job or not?" she asked him. "Cause if so, can you please leave my room so I can put some clothes on?" she said with an eye twitch.
Natsu got the hint and left the room, closing the door as he did so to wait for her to dress. He might be dense when it came to social antiquities, but he had been hit enough times to know when to leave a woman alone to change. He shuddered to himself as he had a flash of phantom pains.
Scylla then let her connection to Senso break as she stood up from her bed. "Senso, mind keeping an eye on him? If I recall there is still some leftover food in the fridge…" she said to him.
Senso rolled his eyes before going out the door to show Natsu around.
Scylla sighed with relief as she then untied her robe and let it drop to the floor behind her before she slowly turned to the outfit she had left on her bed. She put on her underwear first before she slipped on the white smock dress made with an off-the-shoulder neckline with short sleeves, and a gathered skirt with a ruffled hemline. The bodice area of the dress was accented by shimmering metallic threads that gave her angelic shimmering appeal, as the reason why she picked it out when she bought it. Scylla then undid her turban towel and picked up her hair comb and brushed out her hair before styling it up into half of her hair being braided up into a flower at the back of her head and held up by pearl hair pins. Scylla then put on the last touch of the outfit which was a wool shawl that had a seashell-like pattern embroidered into the cloth. The last thing she slipped on was a special golden locket that had been the one thing Senso ever bought for her as a birthday present.
Once Scylla was satisfied, she left the room and made her way to the kitchen where she heard a commotion. Entering the room she connected to Senso and saw an amusing site. Natsu faces scrunched up in disgust, a bag of extremely sour candy in his hands. She giggled at the site, unable to contain herself from seeing such a silly face. "Found his way into the candy cupboard did he?" she asked Senso with a smile on her face.
Senso's snout twitched with amusement, watching Natsu shake from the bitter taste. "I warned him that he wouldn't be able to handle it. But he said he could and well, you see what happened," he said still laughing at Natsu's plight.
Scylla shook her head before she picked up her traveling suitcase bag, and then looked at Natsu. "Natsu? Are you going to make it? Or shall I give you something to help wash the sour taste?" she asked him as she walked slowly to him. "I think I got some spicy candy here somewhere…" she muttered as she went to the candy cupboard and searched for the right jar she had in mind. "I received this candy as a gift from a candyman who tried to flirt with me, but thought it would be better to punish Senso with since he nearly bit his ankle off at the time," she said as she searched. "Where is it...Aha! Here it is!" she said as she pulled the small tiny jar out and started to open it. "This should put a fire in your belly," she said as she pulled a few strands of the said candy and walked to Natsu, dropping the strips into his mouth.
Once the strips hit his tongue, Natsu's mouth clamped shut and his face turned beet red and steam came out his ears. Once he stopped blowing steam he let loose an explosive sigh of relief. "Damn that first shit was bitter as all hell, how do you even eat that? But damn was the second one awesome, best candy I have ever had!" he said with a wide grin. He then looked between the two before asking. "Which of you eats what here?"
Scylla smiled at Natsu. "You see the jars that are green colored?" she asked Natsu. "Those jars are Senso's stuff. The rest are mostly mine, but sometimes I cook food for the both of us," she added before she stood up and sealed the jar. "And Senso isn't that picky when it comes to my cooking, or so he tells me," she said before she slipped the jar of spicy candy into the traveling suitcase.
She had then started to walk to the front door to pick up the house key from the key holder.
Senso switched to human form to grab the back of Natsu's scarf to drag him out of the house. "So what is the mission that you wanted to drag us on?" he asked wanting to know the reason he had to come to their new home. He was also wondering why them, they were new at the guild so why come to a bunch of newbies when there are members who have been there much longer than them.
Natsu had a big grin on his face. "We are off to bring back another member of Fairy Tail, of course!" he replied after yanking his scarf free from Senso's hold as soon as they got outside. "I thought this would be a good chance to see what you guys are like in action! You see, this member was supposed to take out some Vulcans for a job and has been missing for a week," he said to them as he started walking down the street. "So we are going to help him out and bring him back home," he added before he looked at Scylla who was locking the door.
Scylla locked the door to the house and slipped the key into her shawl's pocket. "So it is a search and rescue sort of mission," she said as she walked up to Natsu. "Interesting choice of mission just to see us in action," she said to Natsu before she gave him a friendly smile. "Although, I am curious to see you in action as well Natsu," she added before lifted her shawl onto her head to form a hood and hide Scylla's eyes. "Shall we get going then? I don't know your friend well, but I can guess he isn't going to be waiting forever for us," she said with a laughing smile.
Senso laughed a bit wickedly at this. "He has been waiting for a week, I think he can wait a few more hours. I mean, how bad of a spot did he get himself into?" he asked to himself quietly, not wanting to waste more time.
At the base of Mt. Hakobe
"Ughh….." Natsu moaned as he laid on his stomach in the wagon that he was using to travel to Mount Hakobe in search for his friend and missing guild member Macao Conbolt. The moment that he got inside the wagon, he instantly got sick no thanks to his motion sickness, which happened every time he used any type of transportation. "I am going to die…" he moaned in his misery.
Lucy, who decided to come along with Natus and the others, looked pitifully at Natsu. "Poor Natsu," she said sadly. "Has he always been like this?" she asked Happy.
Happy nodded his head in reply. "It always happens when he uses any mode of transportation whenever we travel," he explained as he floated over Natsu looking as concerned as Lucy was. "But don't worry, it will disappear as soon as we get out of the wagon," he added before he looked to Scylla and Senso. "Are you two ok?" he asked them. "Hopefully you two don't have motion sickness like Natsu does."
Scylla smiled at Happy's words. "Yes, Happy we are fine," she said before she turned her head to where she heard Lucy's voice. "Senso and I travel a lot, so we are used to things like this," she added. "Although, Senso and I mostly walk to most places, or sometimes Senso will carry me along the way if he gets a bit eager to get the job done," she said as she looked back on how some of the jobs that Senso had literally changed into his hound form, only horse sized, and carry her on his back to quickly haul ass back to their former home town. Scylla giggled at the memory before she turned her head to Senso's direction. "Ain't that right, Senso?" she asked him.
Senso just shrugged in his hound form, not really caring to answer right now as he watched the young Dragon Slayer moan in pain and wondered how someone could be so motion sick just by stepping into a vehicle.
Scylla smiled and gently pet Senso's head. She then glanced to Happy, using her connection to using Senso's eyes to see again. "So, what was the job Macao was working on here on the mountain?" she asked with interest.
Happy kept smiling even as Natsu's moans filled the wagon. "He was going to wipe a nest of Vulcans. An easy job but for him not to return is worrying, so we are going to search for him," he said explaining what Macao was doing here.
Lucy looked to Happy confused. "Vulcans? What are those?" she asked before she looked towards Senso and Scylla. "Have you guys seen or heard of them?" she asked them. "I'm afraid I don't know what they are, sadly."
Scylla shook her head no. "We haven't come across them before. But then again, we had no need to go up in the mountains, to begin with," she added. "I am curious to know what they are as well," she said as she turned her head towards Happy. "Care to explain to us Happy?" she asked the flying cat.
Happy then pulled out a picket sign out of nowhere and showed a picture of the creature. Vulcans were large, anthropomorphic monsters that resembled primates. They possessed distinctive facial features, elongated chins, prolonged ears, and pointed heads that resemble a single horn on top of their heads. Vulcans have gargantuan arms and sequentially large hands that attach to their muscular torsos. In comparison to their upper bodies, Vulcans evidently possess a pair of smaller-scaled legs that feature a long tail connected to the bottom of their torsos.
"Wow….Not what I was expecting," Scylla said in disappointment. "Judging from looks alone they look easy to take on," she said before she looked to Senso. "Wouldn't you agree, Senso? I know you would have a lot of fun taking these things on," she said before she stroked his head, that was now on her lap.
Suddenly the wagon slowed down to a stop. "Looks like we are the base of the mountain," Scylla said as she turned to pick up her traveling suitcase bag. "Let's go, Senso," she said as she moved to the edge of the wagon door and smiled as she was greeted by the driver of the wagon. He helped Scylla out of the wagon since he knew that she was blind when they first met and gave her a sad smile.
"Sorry miss, but this is as far as I can take you and your friends," he said to her patting her hand apologetically. "I can't risk losing my wagon being attacked by Vulcans," he said before he let go of her hand. "I do hope you know what you are doing, cause I think your dog won't be able to protect you and your lady friend from those perverted Vulcans," he added as he walked back to the front of the wagon. "Good luck to you all finding your friend!" he said as he got onto the driver's seat after Lucy, Natsu, Happy and Senso hopped out of the wagon. The driver then drove his wagon into a different direction, away from the mountain base.
"Guess we have to walk from here," Scylla said before she pulled her shawl tighter around her shoulders.
One hour later…
"Give me that blanket! I am freezing to death!" Lucy said as she grabbed the blanket from Natsu's backpack. And quickly, she pulled out one of her keys and summoned her time celestial spirit. As soon as he appeared she pulled Scylla and put her inside the clock spirit and quickly joined her.
"Scylla and I are going to be inside here and not coming out till we get to someplace warm," the celestial clock said repeating aloud what Lucy was saying to Natsu and Senso.
Sesno didn't have anything to say, for even he was feeling the bitter coldness of the blizzard in his heavy coat of fur.
Natsu rolled his eyes before he sharply turned. "Weaklings, I am not freezing in all of this cold," he muttered before he walked ahead of them. "Don't tread too far behind or you will get lost in this blizzard!" he shouted as the wind in the blizzard suddenly started to pick up. "Macao!" he shouted over the roaring wind. "Where are you?!" he shouted again, with Happy shouting along with him.
Senso was a few feet behind Natsu when his ears suddenly twitched picking up the sound of something close by.
Scylla, who was hugging her knees inside the clock, suddenly sensed something close by. Something that was of an animal nature. "I sense an animal close by!" she said aloud, hoping that Natsu and Senso could hear the clock repeat what she said. "Something that is big and it's closing in on us at a fast pace!" she added sounding a bit worried since she and Lucy are practically sitting ducks inside the clock.
"What?!" Natsu said hearing what the clock-thingy said and sharply turned around looking at them. But before he could ask anything else, something came down from above attacking him and Happy. Natsu quickly backflipped out of the way before the attacker could even so much as leave a scratch on him. He looked at the attacker as soon as he got back onto his feet and saw that his attacker was a Vulcan. And it was a bit bigger than the usual size of the average Vulcan that he knew.
The Vulcan glared at Natsu before it suddenly started to smell the air. A huge Cheshire grin appeared on his face and he started to run away from Natsu. The Vulcan was panting like a dog as he ran in the direction of the girls, completely ignoring Senso who he trampled over in the process.
Scylla tensed up holding onto Lucy as she sensed the animal coming towards them. "It's coming right for us!" she said to Lucy with a shaky voice, hearing the heavy panting that the Vulcan was making. "And I don't think it's friendly!"
Lucy looked up just in time to see the Vulcan looking at them lustfully. "Women…" he panted heavily. "Me like women," he said to the girls, holding onto the clock like it was a large package and the girls inside were life-sized dolls. He chuckled happily before he suddenly picked up the clock, lifting it over his head and started to run off with another Cheshire smile on his face. Leaving Natsu, Senso, and Happy in the dust.
"Don't just stand there! Help us!" Lucy shouted, the clock repeating her words as the Vulcan carried them off. She was holding onto Scylla for moral support since neither of them knew what the Vulcan had planned for them.
Senso could only lay on the snowy ground in confusion before what happened caught up to him and he bolted straight up and chased after the runaway ape, preparing to beat it into the ground for completely ignoring him and taking his sister and Lucy.
Natsu followed after Senso thinking that the hound might be able to track Scylla since the two have a connection due to Scylla's animal gift.
In the Vulcan's cave, the clock sat in the middle as the lust-crazed monkey kept leaping in circles around, thrusting his pelvis and panting heavily. 'I have got two mates! Two women that are mine! Mine! Mine! Double pleasure, double fun!' he thought aloud as he kept repeating the word 'women' over and over.
"Sorry I got us into this," Lucy said to Scylla apologetically. She kept her eyes on the monkey as it leaped in circles around them. "What is with this stupid monkey? What is he all so excited?" she asked aloud. She then looked at Scylla, who was looking very uncomfortable.
"Lucy...You do know that animals mate right?" she said with a shaky voice. "And this ape has two females that he has probably seen for the first time in lord knows how long," she added before suddenly shivering in horror. "I can hear him, and sense exactly what he is feeling right at this moment...I do hope your clock here is able to keep up inside long enough for Senso and Natsu to rescue us, because if not...We are going to be victims to one very, very horny monkey's lust," she said explaining to the Celestial magician what horrors await them.
Lucy turned bone white at this and started shaking violently. "I knew I should have stayed back at the guild! I don't want my virginity taken by an ape!" she exclaimed in fear at the mere thought of being used for the apes' pleasure.
Sadly as soon as Lucy said those words that the clock suddenly poofed, and disappeared.
Scylla made a glaring face. "You just had to jinx us, didn't you?" she softly muttered under her breath. Scylla then froze in fear as she smelled the foul stink of the ape-man that was now standing before them. It took all of her willpower not to gag aloud at how bad the smell was to her. 'Senso, you better haul ass, cause this monkey is about to RAPE me and Lucy!' she thought, sending a psychic message to Senso as she started crawling backward. "You might want to adjust your contract to your clock friend next time so shit like this doesn't happen!" she said to Lucy as she felt the monkey's lustful breath against her face.
Before the monkey could get any closer it was suddenly tackled away from the two girls by an enraged Senso, causing Lucy to look up as Sesno switched to his human form crouching in front of them protectively. "Natsu, burn this damn dirty ape!" he demanded. How dare this beast try and harm his sister and use her. Oh, boy, was it going to feel a whole lot of pain. Senso was going to make sure of that.
Natsu giddy with excitement pounded his fists together and his fire magic. "Alright you stupid monkey, you are going to tell me where Ma-" he was caught off as he slipped on the ice floor of the cave, sliding to the other side and hitting the wall. He bounced off it and slid right out the entrance and fell down the slopes of the mountain.
Everyone but Scylla could only look on in dumbfounded amazement at the failure they just witnessed, with Senso summing up all their thoughts with, "What an epic fail."
Scylla moved to Senso and leaned to whisper in his ear. "Something is off about him," she whispered. "I am getting the dominate monkey persona, but I am sensing something else…" she added. "Like something is trying to fight the monkey's control," she said before she turned her head towards the monkey. "This is no ordinary ape Senso," she added before she covered her nose trying to not gag again. "Hell, he smells like you when you haven't had a bath for nearly two weeks…" she groaned as her body shivered in disgust.
Senso could only deadpan at Scylla words. "I don't smell that damn bad, and if I did you would as well, so we both stink then," he said refusing to agree with her that he smelled. He would not be the butt of a joke again.
Scylla rolled her blind eyes before she turned her head to glare at him. "He still stinks like shit and I do hope that you aren't going to-!" she started to say but was suddenly cut off when the monkey pounced on them, attacking Senso.
"Me not like man," it said as it attacked. "Me like woman, woman more fun!" he said before he made another punch to Senso. "Stay away from my woman!" he shouted before he grabbed Senso and threw him across the room of the cave.
"Senso!" Lucy cried as she watched Senso crash into the wall before falling into a pile of rubble.
Scylla backed towards where she sensed Lucy. "That monkey is dead meat now," she said with a shaky voice. "He did the one stupid thing that you should never do when it comes to Senso."
"What is that?" Lucy asked looking puzzled as the monkey did a victory dance while pounding its chest.
"Piss him off," Scylla said as the ruble that Senso was buried under began to rumble.
The ruble was suddenly blown away as Senso roared in anger, blowing the debris everywhere. He glared angrily at the Vulcan with rage in his eyes. He charged directly towards the ape, who was caught off guard by the speed the man showed. Once Senso was close, he delivered a series of punches to the beast's face and stomach before backflipping away when it tried to smash him. When the Vulcan realized he missed, its nostrils flare in anger.
"Stupid man dare to get in the way! Me crush man and take women!" it screamed at the top of its lungs, causing Senso and Scylla to grunt and flinch at the volume. They had sensitive ears after all.
Before the beast could charge at Senso, it was punched by a flaming fist at the back of its head sending it flying towards Senso who reacted by kicking it straight up into the ceiling, sticking it there by its head.
Sesno smirked when he saw Natsu, glad to see he had returned to help kick the monkey's ass. "Hey Natsu, first one to hit him when he drops gets to beat him into the ground, you on?" he asked extending a challenge to the young flamehead. Natsu came off as the type that loved a challenge always wanting to prove himself better, so it was a good motivator.
Natsu's grin widened even further. "Ah, hell yeah! Let's go," he said as the Ape came loose and fell towards the ground and the two men charged, hoping to be the one to hurt it.
Right before the monkey could hit the ground, Natsu's flaming fist collided with its stomach, sending it flying past Senso towards the wall, shattering it.
"Hell yeah, I get to beat up the Vulcan! I win, I win!" he said in excitement as he charged towards the monkey. As he neared him Natsu started to summon up his fire magic, preparing to attack the monkey with one of his more powerful attacks. "Fire Dragon Iron fist!" he shouted as both of his hands were suddenly covered with fire and he jumped into the air coming down hard on the monkey with a solid fire-punch. The attack made the monkey completely knocked out and defeated.
The monkey suddenly poofed up smoke, confusing everyone except Scylla. "Guess Natsu knocked the fire out of the dominating Monkey," she said as she got up and walked towards where she sensed the monkey deflating into the smoke. She sniffed the air again and sighed heavily. "Just as I thought," she said before she turned to where she smelled Natsu's fire smoke, trying her best to not focus on the scent triggering her bad memories. "This Vulcan possessed your friend, Macao I believe he was called?" she said to the hot head.
Lucy looked shocked at Scylla. "Wait a minute, how could you know that Scylla?" she asked in astonishment. "I mean, I know you can sense animals and all but…" she started to say but Scylla stopped her by pointing her thumb to where the smoke was and it revealed that the monkey was Macao. "WHAT? He was the monkey the whole time?" Lucy said shocked that Scylla was actually right. "Holy crap, Scylla! That is one hell of a gift you got there! You could tell he was human all that time?"
Scylla shrugged. "Not all the time," she answered honestly. "I only got a good sense that the Vulcan part of him was the more dominant one than his actual spirit that was fighting back for control," Scylla explained trying to put it into words so that Natsu could understand as well. "And when Natsu and Senso beat him up, the monkey's dominance grew weaker after each hit until Natsu put the last energy out like a flame on a candle," she added unable to put the expression of what all just happened without somehow turning it into a fire pun. "So your friend here should be back to his old, human self," she said turning to Natsu. "But that doesn't mean he isn't going to be sore for the next few days," she sighed before she looked towards where she smelled Senso. "Which means someone has to play horsey for a while till we get to the borders of town," she said giving him an apologetic smile. "Sorry, brother dear."
Senso could only grunt as he switched to his hound form, only much, much bigger than normal, "I'm not a fucking horse, sister dear," he drawled out in annoyance.
30 Minutes Later...
"Hey! Romeo! Look who we found!" Natsu shouted to a little kid that was sitting on the stairs in front of the Fairy Tail guild hall.
Romeo looked to see that his dad was alive and finally back home. "DAD!" he cried as he ran to his dad and tackled the poor injured wizard to the ground, causing the man to his head. He cried a fountain of tears, apologizing over and over. "I won't complain about being teased again!" he sniffled against his dad's chest. He then pulled away and looked up at his dad. "I am just happy you are home!"
Macao smiled at his son and wiped away his tears. "Now, now," he said as he soothed his son, trying to get him to stop crying. "If someone teases you again, just ask them if their old man can beat the shit out of nineteen Vulcans like your old man," he said with an encouraging smile.
Romeo only smiled happily and laughed happily before hugging his dad again.
Scylla only had a sad expression on her face as she turned her back away from where she heard the happy reunion take place. "He is a lucky boy," she said softly before she started to walk to the guild's entrance. But she suddenly gasped as she felt two small arms wrap around her from behind.
"Thanks for bringing my dad home," Romeo said as he hugged Scylla from behind. He then unwrapped his arms and ran back to his dad who was talking to Natsu and Lucy, being filled in about Scylla and Senso being the two new recruits.
