"Here! Right here!" A girl with short black hair stomps on the ground on the outskirts of town. Her brown eyes glittered in excitement. "This is the perfect place to start a guild!"

"I think the one in the forest was better." Another girl with long, curly, silver hair pouted.

"But I won rock-paper-scissors!" The first girl complained. "That means I get to choose the guild location and become the master!"

"Blake is right." A guy with blonde hair calls as he sat on a rock away from the others. "Nova suck it up. We all agreed to the terms."

"But Hale-" Nova starts.

"No buts." Hale responds.

"I don't think rock-paper-scissors was the best way to decide everything." A guy with navy blue hair set his backpack down next to Hale's rock. "I just talked to the mayor. He was more than happy to let us start a guild here." Blake cheers while Nova pouts even more.

"Let's start construction right away!" Blake starts running towards the town. Hale grabs her by the collar of her shirt before she can run away.

"Not so fast Blake. We need to fill out the paperwork first, then we can build the guild."

"But Hale!"

"We're broke and we need funding from the council."

"Plus we need a name." Nova peeps in. "I was thinking Awesome Nova! Or maybe Nova's Heart!"

"I am not naming my guild after you!" Blake spat. Hale sighed. The two girls were close, but they often fought.

"How about Siren Fang." The last guy suggests. Everybody turns to look at him.

"Siren Fang?" Blake asks.

"Sirens sang songs that lured sailors with ships to them so that the boats would become shipwrecked. Sirens were depicted as either beautiful women or terrifying winged creatures. But they usually had fangs. We're sirens because we'll lure people to join our guild."

"But we're not gonna kill them are we?" Blake asks, earning a whack on the head from Hale.

"I think it's a great name." Hale says.

"It's almost as good as Awesome Nova." Nova shrugs.

"So I guess we're Siren Fang!" Blake cheers. "Let's take a picture to commemorate this moment!"

"One picture then you need to fill out the paperwork." Hale says.

"Yeah yeah, I know." Blake rolls her eyes. Nova takes out her picture lacrima and sets it up on the stand she bought for it. Meanwhile everyone else was getting into position. Nova joins them when she's finished.

"Siren Fang on three! One... Two... Three!"

Blake's eyes open. She had that dream again. The one where she founded Siren Fang. It was strange seeing it. After all that was over ten years ago. It was still early morning and she knew not very many people would be at the guild. She sat up in bed and stretched. A few of her black locks fell into her face. Blake had changed a lot over those ten years. Blake ran a finger over the smooth glass protecting the picture with her cofounders of the guild. They had changed a lot too. Nova had her own guild now and it wasn't named Awesome Nova. It was called Angel Heart, an all girls' guild. Hale had gotten married and took over his father in-law's guild, Diamond Hydra. Both guilds were popular as of late. Although Siren Fang is even more popular than theirs were. It was all thanks to Blake's hard work. And the last one... The last one died. His death devastated Nova and was one of her main reasons for leaving. So now the only one running Siren Fang was Blake. Of course she had help from one other person.

"Mama! Wake up!" A high pitched voice calls. The door opened, revealing a little five year old. That's right, Blake had a daughter. Her own flesh and blood. Her daughter had the same black hair as Blake, but had piercing green eyes like her father. Blake's husband had died four years ago. He went on a mission and never came back. It was a devastating blow to Blake since Hale had just left. But her guild helped her through it.

"Morning Bella." Blake steps out of bed to scoop up her daughter.

"Mama! We need to go to the guild!"

"Ok sweetie, let Mama get ready." Blake smiles sweetly when her daughter nods. She set her daughter down and Bella runs out. Blake takes a quick shower and when she steps out she observes herself in the mirror. Her hair was no longer cut short, but fell mid-back. She was a taller now and more developed. Her guild mark was on her upper left thigh. A scar ran across her right shoulder as a memento of the day she lost the fourth founder. She shook away the memory and grabbed the clothes she had set out the night before. It was a white blouse with frilly edges, a long black coat that fell to her knees, short white shorts, black thigh-high socks, and a belt that she puts over the coat. The coat had the guild mark on the corners, a siren with fangs that were uncolored. She rushes out of her bathroom and downstairs to where her daughter sat at the kitchen table.

"Hey sweetie, Mama doesn't feel like cooking right now, so want to go to the guild first before we eat?"

"OK Mama!" Bella grabs her mother's hand and jumps off her seat. Blake puts on her knee-high boots before heading outside.

The smell of dew was the first thing that reaches Blake. This was because her front yard was the courtyard of the guild. A marble path connected the front gate of the guild to the actual building and broke off at one point to connect to Blake's house. The path was lined with delicate flowers that were planted and tended by guild members who misbehaved too much. She was alright with fighting in the guild and being rowdy, but if someone breaks something she really likes, hurts Bella, or ruins flowers in the courtyard then they're on flower duty. And flower duty was not something to look forward to. To the left of the courtyard was a fountain with a beautifully crafted siren. It was given to the guild by the mayor on their fifth anniversary of the guild's opening and for the birth of Bella. The guild itself was deigned by Blake and Nova ten years ago. It looked like a castle, despite Hale saying sirens don't live in castles. Four towers were placed in the shape of a square and the guild was built like that. The four towers represented the four founders and each of them were allowed to decorate their tower however they pleased. When Nova and Hale left, they took most of the things from their towers so Blake had them remodeled into something different, but with similar styles. The fourth's remained untouched since the day he died while Blake would move things around every once in a while. Also her office was in there. The guild had two dorms, one for girls and one for guys and they were located a few blocks away in two former hotels. They were allowed to have them since the guild fixed them up. Behind the guild building was a large piece of land that was bare. It was set up for mages who wanted to practice. There were runes set up around it after an incident that damaged the building. Blake lead Bella to the building to unlock the doors. Stepping inside, all the lights were off. When turned them on, it revealed a hallway that split in two directions. Both had two doors at the end one lead to the sides of the building. Out there were tables used as a small restaurant for weary mages and hungry townsfolk. The second lead to staircases that brought you up to Blake and Hale's towers. In front of Blake and Bella was a large square desk that was for the restaurant and for information. Behind the desk was a pair of large, painted doors. Blake opened the doors and it brought them to the guildhall. Another eventful day has started.

I didn't expect the intro to be so long. The application and rules are in the next chapter.
