Oblivion
By Caleb Boyd
Part 1: The Star Guild
"Far far away lies the kingdom of Fiore. A land of seventeen million, filled with magic. Found in every town, bought and sold in every market place. For most magic is merely a tool, a mundane part of every day life. But there are also those who have devoted their lives to its practice. They are the wizards. These wizards band together in magical guilds, which dot Fiore's landscape. However, there is a certain guild, in a certain town, that soars high above the rest. Its name is Fairy Tail."
The sun shines brightly all over Magnolia. The people are as busy as bees. It's almost as if the sun is giving off a pulse of energy.
"Stare your enemy down. Fairy Tail wizards relish in fear!"
Erza encourages Wendy to attack the practice dummy head on.
"Sky dragon roar!" The practice dummy crumbles to ash.
CLICK! "Come on Plue*! Let's go." Lucy and Plue saunter off to do some shopping.
"Think, Gray-sama would like this?" Lucy asked. Plue mulled it over for a bit looking at the cologne bottle. He finally nodded, flashing Lucy a grin.
"Hmm?!" Lucy flushed.
"Plue, stop being silly." She laughed it off, heading in the opposite direction. She slammed right into someone's bare chest.
"I'm so sorry." She stammered.
"Hey, it's ok." He says with a smirk.
"Gray-kun!"
"Chicks dig the Gray."
Lucy turns around, and skips off. She attempts to hid her cherry colored cheeks.
"What's her problem?"
"Plue."
Gray blocks her from leaving by standing at the door. She hides her blush, turning away avoiding his gaze.
"Come on, Luce…. I'll make it up to you. Wanna get lunch?"
Lucy nods, gesturing for him to go first.
"Care to say what's bothering you?"
"Huh?"
"Gray Fullbuster! You and Erza have been acting weird lately!"
"Oh." He says looking away.
"I've been worried about you."
Gray surveys the area and leans close to Lucy.
"Can you keep a secret?"
Lucy nods.
"Apparently there's this weird group of people claiming to be from an extinct wizard guild."
"Oh you must mean me."
This girl walks up twirling her purple mane.
Gray and Lucy hop from their seats.
"Who are you?"
"The name's Iris of the 'Star' Guild."
Lucy reaches for her gate keys, but in an instant she flys into the café window.
"Gah!" she yelped in pain.
"Try this on for size Fairy Tail!"
"What?!"
The area around the café is bathed in a blinding white light.
