Chapter 1

(Lorelei's PoV)

I sat on my throne, looking boredly out across the barren guildhall. The rough-cut granite floor looked almost blue, reflecting the light off of the many many icicles that hung from the ceiling of the small room. I pouted, hoping that someone would just finish a job already! I needed to get out too! I wasn't lonely. My exceed, Clementine was here with me, but I was definitely restless. I couldn't just leave the guildhall completely empty and defenseless! That would make me like, the worst guild-master of all time! Why couldn't Hashi and Shiro just get back from their stupid mission? They'd only gone up the mountain to fight a couple of vulcans. Seriously! They left like an entire two hours ago! This was not like them. Usually, if it was just a petty animal control job, they'd be done in twenty minutes. Tops. I looked down at my purple exceed.

"What do you think is taking the twins so long?" I asked her. She gave a thoughtful expression.

"Well, what were they doing last time they took this long?" She asked pointedly. I sweatdropped. Sure enough, my worst suspicions were confirmed when a girl with charcoal hair and eyes burst into the guild hall singing,

"Hellooooo Snowflakes! We're home! Miss us?" A boy sauntered in after her. He had the same charcoal eyes but his hair was white.

"Hashi, we were only gone for two hours. You can chill." He mumbled at her grouchily. Hashi shivered and eyed the icicles around the room wearily.

"That reminds me, did the temperature drop about a hundred gazillion degrees while we were gone, or is it just me? …. Ehe." She stuttered a weak laugh as I gave her a sarcastic grin, then my expression turned cold. (A/N: See what I did there? No? Ok…. X3 ) The temperature of the room, if possible, dropped even more as I opened my mouth to speak.

"That reminds me. You two are late again and it better not be because you wanted to go shopping again!" I roared. The twins just blushed guiltily and stared at the ground.

"Geez, for an Ice Dragon Slayer, you'd think she'd be able to keep her cool a bit more…" One of them whispered to the other.

If looks could kill, they would've been 6ft under just about now.

"I'll have you know that with those dragon slayer abilities, I also have fantastic hearing, and just like a dragon I am TERRIFYING WHEN ANGRY!" I screamed at them, causing their hair to blow back, and their faces to flinch. "HOW'S THIS FOR KEEPING MY COOL? ICE DRAGON ROOOOAAAAARRRRR!" It wasn't intended to harm them too much but it would definitely give them a brain freeze. When the dust cleared, Ice had crystallized around their faces, giving them both white hair and snowy beards. They both groaned and caught each other's eye. When they saw saw themselves, they both bursted out laughing. I just growled at them and plopped back onto my throne made entirely of ice, not realizing that I had stood up. "You guys made me wait for too long! I haven't been out for three days." I grumbled grouchily. A small wooden door opened from behind me. Another pair walked into the guildhall, immediately making their way to the tiny bulletin board for job requests. They didn't seem to notice me or the twins. When the taller of the two stooped to get a better look at the job options, I cleared my throat expectantly. He looked up at me with a smirk on his tan face, the other boy however did not. The smirking boy had dark olive green hair that was pulled into a little ponytail. His ears were covered by a bulky pair of lacrima headphones, making me unsure if he could really hear me or not. The other boy had dark dark blue hair, and electric bright blue eyes. I cleared my throat again and he shot me a lightning-fast, alert glance, and he was back to staring at the bulletin board. The green haired boy snickered and spoke

"Something bothering you Lorelei?" He chided. I rolled my eyes at the flirt and turned my full attention to the blue-eyed boy.

"Alastair… You gonna tell me what you're doing back here? You were supposed to be on a mission!" I asked calmly. I tried not to blow a fuse just yet. If Alastair and Sebastian were back so soon, he must have a good reason. Alastair turned. He gave me a weary look.

"To be honest sis, you probably should've gone with us." He stated quietly, his face still void of most emotions. My eyes widened as his words hit me. Alastair almost never asked for help. Then again, it was usually me he went on missions with. Not Sebastian. But still, what could a water dragon slayer have a problem with? It was seriously unlike him to lose a fight, unless it was to me of course. Then I stood up.

"Alright then. What are you waiting for. There's a pack of water bottles in the back. Get ready we're going back out there!" I declared as I pointed dramatically out of the guildhall doors. Alastair just smiled sheepishly and hurried to refuel. Sebastian slipped half his headphones off his head but before he could ask, I answered his question for him. "Sorry Sebastian. I'm taking your spot. Someone needs to watch the twins." I gave him a serious salute as he turned in terror to see the two 15 year olds giving him bored expressions. Their cool exterior was fooling no one. Everyone knew that if left to their own devices, the twins could turn completely insane, using their magic to demolish everything around them. Together, they might even be more powerful than me. The only member of Avalanche that could beat the two was probably Curios, but nobody in their right mind would ever stick around to find out. Sebastian was in for a rough time.

"Hey Lorelei, I packed some ice in the cooler too! You're gonna need it!" At that moment, Alastair could be heard coming from storage, clutching a huge ice box in his hand. I smiled at him and marched out the doors, wasting no time setting off down the snowy mountainside. I looked back at the guildhall to wait for Alastair. Not much bigger than a shed, our guild hall was small, but it was all we needed for the eight members of Avalanche. I built the thing -with the help of Alastair of course- when we founded the guild. Right now, we were classified as an independant guild, but since there was no other guilds in the surrounding counties, the locals came to us with their problems, keeping us employed. Even though Alastair was two years older than me, (19 years old) he offered me the position of guildmaster, which I happily accepted.

Finally, Alastair emerged, lugging a heavy ice box with him. I felt a pang of thanks and apology in my gut and I quickly snatched the ice box out of my honorary brother's hands.

"Lorelei you can't carry this for such a long journey. It's heavy. C'mon, let me take it." He tried reasoning with me. Looking down at the huge metal box, I realised he was right. I opened the box, and ate all of the ice in a huge breath. He just looked at me, stunned.

"Onwards!" I shouted, marching down the mountain. Alastair scrambled to catch up, finally taking his spot next to me.

We didn't have to travel far, the village was just over a couple of mountains. While we were trekking over our first mountaintop, something fuzzy and purple hit me hard, sending me rolling down the other side of the mountain. I managed to stop myself from the fall but I was still angry. My eyes caught sight of my exceed, Clementine, and I immediately felt sorry.

"Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry Clementine! I just got so caught up in the new mission! Will you ever forgive me?" Clementine, struggling to get out of my iron grip, gave a curt nod. When I released her, she made a big point of stretching her little body.

"It's okay Lorelei. I was in the kitchen making lunch. I was out of sight, out of mind. I forgive you, it was just a simple mistake. However I'll have you know that doesn't mean I was any less hurt when I found out." At this I sunk back into my little depression. Clementine had been my partner since before my dragon foster father, Boreas, left me. She was my longest friend and I usually went nowhere without her. I was so embarrassed! Seeing this, the little exceed smiled. "I have an ice potion on hand for when you're ready for it. I assume you'll probably take it during the battle?" I nodded, perking up a bit. Clementine's ice potions were a wonderful supply of energy. If i used just one of those, I was sure to win.

We finally made it into town. I was sluggishly tired, dragging the small satchel of supplies in the dust behind me.

"Okay Alastair, tell me what we're doing here. You're job was to stop a dark guild from terrorizing the locals but you were stopped? Tell me who was so important that they needed two dragon slayers to punch their face in!" I demanded from him.

"It's gonna be harder than that, sis. Remember, me and Sebastian couldn't land a punch on these guys. Not without completely giving away our magic power level." I smiled confidently.

"It's ok. Big sis is here to take care of ya. Now let's go kick some butt!" And with that, I took off towards the village square where a crowd of people was gathered. Alastair and I pushed our way through until we saw two men standing over the bodies of the various dark guild members. They made me so mad. "Hey losers! What do you think you're doing? That was our job! Back off!" At my words, some of the people in the crowd gasped. Alastair tensed and face palmed. The boys looked at me. The one closest to me had blond hair and blue eyes. The only thing wrong with his face was the scar that came over his right eyebrow. He had a cocky grin plastered onto his face that made want to give him permanent frostbite. He looked at me agitatedly but kept his smirk in place. The guys behind him had a bit more composure, but he sent an unfriendly glare towards Alastair and I. He had a curtain of black hair in front of his face. His eyes were red and piercing. He didn't make a move towards us whatsoever. Two cats stood a small ways away. One had green fur and was oddly wearing a pink frog costume. The other had russet red fur and was wearing a blue vest. They seemed to be cheering the men on. Clementine herself finally managed to make it through the crowd, but when the two saw her, they lost their composure.

"Who are you and why do you have an exceed?" The blonde questioned quickly. I rolled my eyes.

"You boys need to work on your manners! Don't you guys see the two exceeds standing over there? Don't act so surprised if you have one yourself!" I yelled back angrily. He looked startled at my blunt reply but then smirked.

"Well it's kinda an unspoken rule that only dragonslayers can have exceeds, and that either means that you stole that cat from someone, it isn't yours, or you're a dragonslayer. By the looks of you babe, I highly doubt that last option." The longer he spoke, the more I wanted to rip him to shreds. How could he just say I wasn't a dragonslayer? Before I could do anything though, Alastair sprang at the guy.

"Don't. Talk. About. My. Little. Sister!" He screamed with each attack. I sweatdropped. It was a wasted effort. The guy was blocking everything. He gave a slightly agitated look when he saw Alastair.

"You again? Wait. You went and got your sister? Jeez man that's just lame, not that I'm complaining though." He said that last part with a wink in my direction. I scoffed.

"Water Dragon Roooaaar!"

"White Dragon Roar!" I was shocked as he countered with his own dragon slayer magic. He and his partner look pretty shaken as well. "Wait, you're a dragon slayer? That exceed belongs to you?" He asked in astonishment. Alastair laughed. He seemed the least confused of all of us.

"Yes it's true. I'm the water dragon slayer, but Clementine isn't my exceed. She belongs to Lorelei." He said, gesturing to me. He nodded at me and I smirked.

"You see boys, I'm not just Alastair's little sister. I'm also known as the guild master of Avalanche, an independant guild. The locals call me the Ice Angel. I'm a dragon slayer as well." If possible, the expressions on their faces got even stupider. I burst into laughter at their utter shock. Clementine lept onto my shoulder happily chirping praises. I formed an icy sword in my hands and playfully pointed it towards them.

"Do you give up yet?" I asked in an evil tone. My overconfidence must have been what jolted them back to reality because they both suddenly spluttered and regained themselves.

"Yeah right. So you think you can beat us? We're third generation dragon slayers putting us on a whole other level than you. If we can beat a silly independant guild's master so easily, then it's no wonder we've never heard of you." The blonde started laughing, not even impressed by my guild master status. I was crestfallen.

"Come on! But I founded it myself and everything!" That just made the blonde snort in laughter.

"Sting is the master of Sabertooth, the guild that held the title of number one guild in all of Fiore for four consecutive." This was the first time I'd heard the other guy talk. 'Sting' was smirking cockily next to him. Then it was my turn to be shocked. My knees hit the dirt as I fell to the ground, utterly taken aback. The one time I wanted flaunt my guild master status and I'm beaten by two pretty boys! Impossible! I would not stand for it! I quickly stood up again.

"Well in the end, you two stole our job! Now we must fight!" I challenged. Alastair was already flanking me, ready for battle. That surprised me. He usually discouraged fighting. I guess he must've really hated them. The two just smirked, and got into position as well. Without warning, Al and I flew towards the boys. My foot connected nicely with 'red eye's face, as Al's fist pounded Sting's jaw, sending them both away into a building's wall. We quickly followed our prey but as we got close, the two disappeared, not giving us time to spin around until we felt kicks at our backs, sending us head first through the wall. Dazed and unable to move in the rubble, I saw a figure pick Al up by his collar, and begin to repeatedly punch him in the face. Al fell to the ground unconscious and I groaned.

"Come on Al, don't leave me here…" I muttered aloud as I crawled to him. When I got to his body my hands began to gently glow. I put them on his face and after a second or two, he began to stir, but before I could restore him completely, I felt a hand on the back of my collar lift me into the air. "Hey! Let me go!" I screamed, throwing out some kicks and punches here and there. None of them landed.

"Look who we have here Rogue! I found a little stowaway trying to heal her friend. How about you take care of her?" Rogue gave a curt nod and took a deep breath.

"Shadow Dragon Roar!" Thinking quick, I countered with my own breath attack.

"Ice Dragon Roar!" I successfully deflected the blow. A ball of blue, icy fire formed around my hand and I slashed at Sting. He dropped me and I landed on my feet. I darted towards Rogue and jumped high into the air. "Ice Dragon: rain of blades!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. Sharp shards of blade-like ice pelted Rogue until he pulled up a shadowy shield. When my attack was over and he got a chance to put down the shield, I saw his cheek had a cut that was dripping blood. When he went to wipe it, I got a chance to see his other eye. I was startled by how different he looked with two eyes. It was definitely a good different. Suddenly a voice broke me out of my thoughts.

"Are you a pirate?" The little green exceed was almost underneath me. I jumped at how close he was but then again, he was so cute. It was hard for me to feel negative towards the little guy.

"No, I'm not. Why would you ask that?" I say gently kneeling down to his level. He beamed at me and said like it was the most obvious thing,

"Because you're wearing an eyepatch." That's right! My eyepatch… I'd almost forgotten about it. I put a hand to it and laughed.

"I'm wearing this eyepatch for the public safety. You wouldn't like to know what happens when I open my right eye." I said cheerfully. The frog exceed just nodded focused. Suddenly, I felt a kick in my side that sent my flying into the air. Before anything else could happen, I distantly heard both of the boys summon their breath attacks. Welp, maybe I shouldn't have told Sebastian not to come. Was my last thought before I passed out.

(Rogue's PoV)

I was utterly shocked when the girl, Lorelei, I think her name was, struck up a conversation in the middle of our battle with Frosch nonetheless. Absolutely insulting! But she was so kind to my exceed, even though he was with her enemy, I couldn't help but feel amazed at this little act of kindness she was I saw sting walk up to her, I nearly stopped him, but too late. Her body was thrown high into the air. After we both used our breath attacks on her, she fell to the ground, unconscious.

"...Oops. Didn't mean to practically kill her." Sting said. I growled at him.

"You idiot! Now we have to be responsible for her and her brother! What are we gonna do now?" Sting had been squinting at the two new dragon slayers.

"Siblings huh… They don't look the same." A tick appeared in my head. Sometimes my fighting partner could be so slow.

"They call themselves siblings like we call ourselves twins. It's simple really. It doesn't take a fool to know that." I told him. A thoughtful expression took his features at the comparison.

"Maybe we should take them along. It would be nice to have a couple more dragon slayers on the team, even if they are weak. This one can use healing magic." Sting said, prodding the girl's face with his boot. It was indeed a useful talent to have on the team, but there was no way I could justify taking them out of their own guild.

"They have their own guild Sting. I suggest we ask the exceed to lead us there so we can explain." I said nodding towards the purple exceed who had been hiding behind the feet of various bystanders passing by. Sting nodded and gestured for it to come closer. Not surprisingly, she did. When she was close enough, Sting asked her,

"Would you lead us to your guild? We know you're not strong enough to carry these two on your own. Come on, please?" He asked in his most angelic voice while trying to stop the oncoming permanent smirk that was slowly making it's way back onto his face. The exceed reluctantly agreed and began down the road without waiting for us. Quickly, we fought over who got to carry the girl, and followed the cat who was just a purple point in the distance.

She led us to the edge of town and into the mountains. Just after passing our first mountain, she whirled around splashing a substance from a tiny beaker. It hit the ground just in front of our feet. Where the liquid hit, the earth sunk in, completely melted.

"This is one of the strongest acids known to man. One wrong move and you're dead. And no, I wouldn't question my accuracy." And with that, I felt my shirt began to burn. When I looked down, I saw both Sting, and I had the words 'Beware Avalanche' singed into our shirts.

Sting whistled, obviously impressed.

"So you can fight for yourself huh? That's a rare trait in exceeds. Go you!" He congratulated her, obviously not taking her seriously. She put the beaker back into her satchel and brought out two beakers this time. One was inky black and the other, a glowing white.

"My companions may not have done their research, but I have. This is a shadow potion and this is a white potion. They are nothing but dog treats to use on dragon slayers needing punishment." She stated briskly. Sure enough, the longer I looked at the black liquid, the hungrier I became. Sting was practically drooling over his. The exceed tossed us our respective bottles and we each drank them immediately. We didn't even stop to question the cat's motives. We didn't care, just needed the stuff. The taste was even more rewarding than the smell. It reminded me of Skiadrum to the extent that I felt tears in my eyes. Anything unpleasant I might've done to the guild members of Avalanche immediately left my mind and I raced to pick Lorelei up and help her towards her guildhall again. Sting did the same with the boy, 'Al'. The cat seemed pleased with herself.
