Hey guys it another fanfiction from me, this one is about Laxus and his Exceed as well as others but I won't spoil it too much for you. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoy writing it. It is also set just before the GMG so Laxus is nice to the guild and people in it. Thank you Ciao xx
Laxus couldn't believe his luck, he was just finishing a mission and was bringing the two robbers to the jail when he had stumbled across an Exceed looking for a partner. Granted he was a bit disappointed it was a girl but she had promised that she would work hard to be as powerful as Laxus but smirked when she said that she was nearly there anyway. Laxus could tell they would get along just fine with each other.
Strangely the female Exceed reminded him of Blondie back at the guild with her short blonde fur and messy fringe hanging over the left side of her face. She was also wearing a loose pink dress and had an earring in her right ear. Only her eyes were a deep green anot not a chocolate brown. All she was missing was a blue ribbon over her left ear, but her appearance wasn't the only thing similar. Since she had partnered up with Laxus, she had defended him when people gave him wary looks, was kind to him but unlike Blondie, his Exceed sometimes cursed up a storm if she was angry. Laxus had spent a month travelling with Koneko (that was her name she had given herself), and Laxus found himself enjoying her presence. He told her everything he had done and his past, she returned the favour and her found out that she had been abandoned by her parents and sent away to be alone.
Laxus felt pity for her, after everything he had done, he still had a place to call home when she was innocent and had been put on the streets. Laxus also felt guilty and wished he had met Koneko before, she might of helped stop him do those terrible things. He had to leave when he had gotten a message from his grandfather to come home for the GMG announcements. He quickly explained everything at her confused expression she nodded her head and stored the information in her head. That was another thing Laxus was glad he had her as his Exceed, not only could she fly, she had an eidetic memory which would be very useful.
Laxus would have started walking home, but Koneko had offered to carry him to Magnolia so he graciously took up on her offer and at full speed it took her only four hours of flying whereas if he had walked, maybe a week. Laxus also couldn't use his Lightning teleportation over long distances and he had to imagine exactly where he wanted to be before leaving, and he was in a forest so that would be quite hard to do that with so many trees. They went to Laxus' house to let him shower and change clothes while Koneko was snooping around to find something interesting.
She found out that he had three teem mates, Bickslow, Freed and Evergreen. She guessed the girl was called Evergreen, the blue haired man was called Bickslow and the green haired grumpy man was Freed. She also found out that the guild master of Laxus' guild was his grandfather, with further snooping she noticed that he didn't have a girlfriend or boyfriend or any type of partner at all. She guessed he was eager to partner with her because he was lonely, she wondered why, if everyone had forgiven him and he was attractive why didn't anyone ask him out. Although his demanding nature and bulky form probably would scare off a lot of people.
Laxus walked out out of the bathroom to find his Exceed looking at everything in his house, she was definitely meant to be his partner. He chuckled when she figured out that she'd been caught. He wasn't mad though so she flew up onto his shoulder and sat down, "Are we going to your guild now? I want to meet your team mates and the others" Laxus groaned in defeat as he was pushed out of the door with surprising strength for a cat. "Fine, fine. We're going now" Koneko cheered in victory and sat back on his shoulder as they teleported to the guild.
Laxus strode into the guild and everyone went quiet when they saw the female Exceed sitting on Laxus' shoulder. Mira walked up to Laxus, "Well aren't you going to introduce us to your new friend?" Laxus sighed while Koneko loudly announced, "My name is Koneko and I'm Laxus' Exceed so if you bother him I'll have to beat you up". It was unnerving to hear such deadly words coming from a sweet and innocent animal, but then again she was partners with Laxus, he didn't let just anyone get close to him.
Koneko was around his team mates for only a day and yet they already loved her and she loved them. She was able to talk about girl stuff with Evergreen and complimented her often, she talked about books she had read with Freed (and sometimes caused long arguments that lasted for half an hour) and she said that she liked Bickslow's eyes and didn't understand why he would cover them up which put her in his eternal good book.
Koneko was also plucking other people's heartstrings, although she was quite annoyed at the blue Exceed who kept bringing smelly fish over to her table. She didn't even like fish, she preferred drinking tea, which then caused her to become friends with Carla who adored tea. She talked to Levy about books, and became a friend of Lucy's when they talked about her uncanny resemblance to her. She didn't like Natsu, she thought he was just a stupid airhead who couldn't admit that his hair was pink. When she expressed her reasons of dislike towards Nastu at Laxus, he laughed his head off for ten whole minutes.
She also liked Erza because she represented the character of a strong female figure and had a sweet tooth as well. Event though she was a bit dense sometimes, Koneko thought she was someone she would have liked as a role model. She got along well with Lisana with her using animal soul magic but preferred her sister more because she was kinder and made her yummy sweets. She was creeped out by Max when he came near her with his broom. Wendy, Romeo and Azuka were taken to petting her and she would spend a few minutes getting petted before being dragged back over to Laxus' table. She got her Fairy Tail stamp on her back since it was the only place apart from her face that it would fit. Koneko had so much fun, she couldn't wait until tomorrow to go back there, she could see why the guild was so popular.
P.S. Koneko means kitten in Japanese
