Man, my notifications box is gonna explode after I publish this... Hey guys, this is TyForestGames, and I'm back to write my first Fairy Tail fanfic (well, technically, since I have a Navia one shot on ...)! Okay, just a fair warning: This is going to be the LONGEST book I've ever written. No competition. And considering how long Fairy Tail is, you shouldn't be all that surprised.
Seeing as how it is so freaking long, just in case I would hit a chapter limit, I've separated it into two parts/books. This first book is Fairy Tail, while the second will start where Fairy Tail 2014 started.
Also, you'll probably notice a large gap comparison when it comes to chapter length. Considering how many episodes there are, there's bound to be a lot of chapters where there's little content, since it's focused on Kato, and he may have little interaction with anything/anybody.
Everything else you need to know is in the description. Enjoy!

Prologue: The Tower of Heaven
Kato Kobaruto didn't remember much about his childhood before the Tower of Heaven. He remembered there being a lot of fire before he was snatched up by a cult member. Kato had done so kicking and screaming before one of the cult guys finally got annoyed and knocked Kato out cold.
The cobalt haired boy woke up again, this time handcuffed, in a cold prison cell with five other kids; four guys and one girl. One of the guys had very block-like features, another had black hair, the girl had orange hair and slightly slanted eyes, and another boy had dark skin and blonde hair. But the final boy caught his attention. He had blue hair, darker than Kato's light blue hair, and had a weird red tattoo on his right eye.
The group introduced themselves as Wally, Simon, Millianna, Shô, and Jellal. Jellal, who seemed to be the leader, explained that they were in a place called The Tower of Heaven. However, the name was very misleading. The cultists here enslave children to build the tower, all in the hope to resurrect their dark overlord, Zeref the Black Wizard.
It was hell on earth. Though Kato did question the cultists' motives for using children to build this tower, when adults would have been much more efficient. But hey, hard to tell that to people who whip you constantly on a daily basis. But during this time, he met an old man who was unfortunate enough to work in this hell: Rob, a previous member of the magic guild known as Fairy Tail. Whenever they found the freedom, Rob would tell Kato the tales of magic and his adventures with Fairy Tail. Of course, these little talks were few in number, but they helped keep the boy going.
A week of back breaking and whip cracking labor (and a few escape attempts) later, everything changed. All with the arrival of a certain red haired girl.

Okay, I'll fully admit. The only reason I'm releasing this now is because the Fairy Tail manga is close to concluding, and I wanted to do something to commemorate the event. However, I will not start up this story in quite some time. I'll maybe start it when I finish up my First Metalbender series.
Fun fact: Kato's last name, Kobaruto, is actually Japanese for cobalt. Or at least that's what Google Translate says. So yeah, I wanted something about his name to be like Erza's, so I took the hair color idea and typed Kato's hair color into Google Translate and voila! Kobaruto. But anyway, I hope you enjoyed this prologue, because the first chapter will be insane once I get around to it. Till next time guys!
