Chapter 1
Ame's POV

"Merry Christmas bitches!" Takara shouted as she chugged yet another mug of ale and jumped up and onto the dark wood table.
"Ugh, is it just me or does she frequently get drunk on holidays?" I asked Tsuyo.
"No, she does it more often than that, you'd have to be blind not to see it, the only difference between her casual Tuesday and a holiday, is that she thinks having it be a holiday gives her a decent excuse."
"Hey! I heard that!"
I glanced at Takara and laughed as she attempted to flip off the table and took an extra step forward on accident, causing her to fall off and land flat on her ass as her copper hair flipped in front of her face.
She was wearing her usual clothing, light purple pants, a white shirt with sleeves going only to the edge of her shoulders with a thick purple line running from side to side along the top of her chest, her light purple sleeves, unattached to her shirt with a couple of white marks, and her white shoes with thin black lines running along the edges, her green guild mark on the front of her right hip, only a small tip of it visible.
I glanced down at my own clothing, my comfortable light and dark gray sweatshirt covering the top of my blue shorts and the black guild mark imprinted on the inside of my left wrist, I look down at my old black sneakers.
*CRASH*
I whip my head back and notice that Takara had attempted to climb up the stairs, for god knows what. I look a bit closer and notice that she had knocked over the vase that Tsuyo had gotten as a form of gratitude from an elderly woman on an old job.
"WATCH IT TAKARA! I swear it's like you're some dumb ass little kid breaking every little thing they touch and knocking over what they miss in a store! That vase was irreplaceable you know!" Tsuyo scolded her and then glanced back at me, her tone quite different from only a second ago. She's good at doing that, changing the expressions on her face, covering her emotions.
"Anyways Ame, as I was saying before, I heard rumors of a well known guild from Magnolia searching for us nearby."
Us? Hmm...This can't be good, usually when something like this happens Takara just wipes them out in a single blow, or she'll be too lazy and will just have me do it on my own, we never really need Tsuyo to do it though, her magic is far too powerful to be used on such child's play like small guilds. But she does seem a tad concerned, and she did say that they were well known from Magnolia.
"Why would they be looking for us?"
"I'm not all that sure; their guild goes be the name of Fairy Tail. Apparently they're the ones who typically take care of the harder jobs and are the ones who have destroyed half of the city."
"Well then why the hell are they so good?"
"While they have destroyed sections of the city, they're the ones who managed to save it more often, by stopping Jellal and the tower of heaven, the guild Blue skull, Oracion seis, and are the ones who have what's known as the S class. That's all the knowledge I've managed to gain so far."
"Hmm, how many of them are looking for us?"
"Four."
"Four?"
"Well, and a cat."
"Why take any interest into it then? If there are only four of them… and a cat? Then why even bother? I understand that they're a powerful guild, but common! We're way stronger!"
"I don't want to underestimate them, I'm not saying that we're weaker than they are, but their names are Erza Scarlet, a requip mage, better known as, Titania, Gray Fulbuster, an ice mage, Natsu Dragneel, the Salamander, Lucy Heartfillia, a celestial mage, and the cats name is Happy, but to be more precise he is referred to as an exceed. Not that that would make much sense to you though."
wtf is an exceed?
"Ok, I have no clue what an exceed is.. But in the morning I can drag Takara along and we could do a bit of digging around if you really want."
"That sounds good, I'm not really worried about it, however I am quite curious as to why they'd be looking for us."
She glanced back over at Takara who was leaning almost entirely over the staircase railings, she had pushed the Christmas lights around, making it so that she wouldn't break any, or have them poke her, her knees the only thing holding her in place as she leaned forwards and looked back through the bars, sticking her tongue out and flipping us off with her bright red Christmas decorated nails.
I smacked myself in the forehead.
"Ugh! Takara! Why the hell do you act like this when you're drunk?!" I slipped out of my chair and walked over to her, I decided to try and mess with her, it's not like she would remember it in the morning anyways. I slowly crept up the stairs as she was focused on Tsuyo and went to flip her over the railing. I passed one of my hands onto her foot, and the other onto her shoulder, then tried to flip her off and over.
I saw a white flame extend to my left and heard Takara's voice at the last second, "I don't think so shortstop."
Her enflamed hand sucker punched me, and for the first time today I was the one flat on my ass, and slipping down the stairway.
I caught myself and grabbed the railing to help myself up. "Oh yeah?! You wanna go hot head?!"
"Who the hell are you callin' a hot head midget?!"
I could see Tsuyo from the corner of my eye, she had pushed herself out of her seat and was rolling her eyes at us, as usual.
"That's it!" I lunged towards her.
I hadn't noticed that she had already taken a shot, and before I could get the chance to use my magic, I was knocked over and in front of our full mirror next to the bar, a large black chard mark and burn was left across my face.
"That's enough you two." Tsuyo said in a low voice.
"That's alright; Ame was getting her ass handed to her anyways." Takara smirked and seemed to giggle at herself as she flipped herself around, now sitting upright along the railing and facing outwards towards me.
I rolled my eyes and grunted at her comment.
Takara's the type of person who may seem like a total asshole who could care less about you when you first meet her, but once she gets to warm up to you she will protect you with her life. I'll admit, she can be a bit overbearing at times, but she's kind at heart, it's one of the reasons why I have to love her. Take my word for it though, if you catch her in a bad mood it's probably best to stay away… unless you want third degree burns.
Takara went back to staggering around the open room, bumping into tables… and I think she knocked over a couple of chairs and cups.
"You know what?" I said to her. "It's 3 in the morning and we need to wake up in almost 5 hours to go check something out."
She turned towards to me and moaned, "Whyyyyyyy?"
I just shook my head and grabbed her wrists, dragging her towards the stairs, and down the hallway, until I made it to her room.
I'm not gunna lie, I really didn't wanna deal with her, so I just pushed her onto her bed, laying halfway off, and shut the door, walking back down the hallway until I saw Tsuyo.
"Goodnight!" I shouted, and I walked into my own room, on the opposite side of the hallway and 3 doors down from Takara's. Then I closed the door and went to bed myself.
