Intro:
The She-Devil and The Mystery Man


"Natsu, watch your back!" Erza shouted out as soon as she threw a dagger straight at said man. Natsu dodged her dagger, ready to yell and question her why she did that, before noticing a bandit collapsing beside him.

"Thanks, Erza!" he called. From the corner of his eye, he saw another bandit running at him with a long sword. Natsu immediately dodged the man's attack, grabbed him by the collar of his shirt, and sent him flying to the closest tree. Which also caused the tree to tip over.

"Open! Gate of the Ram! Aries!" Lucy summoned. Natsu glanced over his shoulder and saw the celestial mage take on two bandits, but after seeing Aries catch them in her wool, he didn't have to worry. "I'm sorry!" Aries cried.

Lucy sweat dropped. "You don't have to apologize all the time, Aries. You always save me."

"I'm sorry...," the ram sniffled. "I'll be on my way now."

Lucy smiled and thanked the girl before she was sent away. "I'm done over here!" she called out.

"Me too!" Gray shouted over to them, coming out of the trees with minor injuries. Then out came along were five bandits that were tied together, all had their teeths chattering. Gray didn't even hold back, did he? Poor guys. Gray looked over to Natsu and saw that he was still fighting before snorting. "You're still fighting, Natsu? I'm already done!"

Natsu grabbed a bandit and punched him to the ground before stopping and fumed at Gray. "Shut up Droopy Eyes! I'm about to take out one more, and that'll be six KOs!"

Gray sneered. "Oh really? Where is he then?" Natsu glanced around, not seeing the bandit anywhere. He turned back to Gray. "Goddammit Gray! You made me lose him!"

Gray glared at the dragon slayer. "That was your own fault, fire breath! You were supposed to keep an eye on the enemy! Don't put the blame on me!" A second later, the two rivals were close to bashing their heads together before the said bandit came flying out of nowhere and landed between them. The two immediately froze in their tracks and robotically turned their heads in the direction he was thrown from. They both swallowed the lumps in their throats.

Lucy and Happy sighed from afar as they watched Erza trudge towards the two idiot rivals. In the eyes of Gray and Natsu, they saw a red headed demon with fangs and pointed nails ready to rip them apart. "Natsu...Gray...I thought we were clear that there wouldn't be any bickering on this mission."

Lucy couldn't help but feel pity for the two. Happy just watched with a carefree face while he nibbled on his fish. "That's what they get when they don't follow orders from Erza." The blonde silently agreed. Who wouldn't be scared of Erza?

"H-Hey, guys!" she carefully called, not wanting to feel Erza's wrath. "Shouldn't we get back to the town? We need to get our reward..."

Erza stopped in her tracks and nodded. "Right. We can't get off track." Gray and Natsu relaxed and sighed in relief, silently thanking Lucy for saving them. Then they stiffened again when Erza shot them a glare. "However, I will punish you two when we get back to the guild."

"A-Aye...," Natsu saluted. Gray nodded his head nonstop, both were close to tears when they imagined their 'punishment'. Happy hovered over to Natsu and said, "I guess you and Gray are tied then huh? 5-5 KOs."

Natsu gave a disgusted look. "I'm still stronger than him." Gray sneered. "Psh, we'll see about that."

"Quit it!" Lucy smacked both of their heads. "You guys do not want to piss off Erza again!"

They both muttered, but compelled. Lucy huffed and watched Erza drag the bandits by rope. This mission wasn't that hard. She smiled. If only missions were always fun like this.

Unbeknownst to the team, their entire battle was watched. From the closest hill, which was yards away from where the team was, a black cloaked man stood. The bottom of the cloak was tattered and old and the man was hooded by the cloak. His eyes were wide with surprise. He was dumbfounded, but at the same time, he wanted to crumble down to his knees.

A name he forbade himself to ever say, a name that was a taboo to him, came tumbling out of his trembling lips. "Lauren..."


"Yo!" Master Makarov greeted the team as soon as they stepped into the guild. "Welcome back!"

"It's good to be back, Master," Erza smiled. It's only been a week though, Lucy thought with a nervous smile.

"Lucy! Welcome back!" Lucy turned her head toward the melodic voice of Mirajane. "How was the mission?"

The blonde sighed. "Tiring as usual. At least they didn't destroy anything this time...maybe a few trees, but nothing serious."

The bartender smiled. "That's good then." Then her smile became devious. "Anything happen between you and Natsu?"

Lucy sweat dropped. "Mira! Please, it's not like that between us!" Mirajane giggled. "Oh really? We'll see about that."

The blonde sighed. Once Mirajane gets an idea in her head, she never lets it go. She stared over to Natsu who was busying himself with Gray again, finishing off what they had started earlier that day. He was stupid. Carefree. Dense as well. Why should she have a reason to like him?

As soon as she thought that question, millions of good qualities came filtering in her head. Strong. Lean. Fun. Always with a positive attitude. Fights for his friends. Knows how to cheer someone up unknowingly. If a friend is involved in something, he immediately becomes involved as well. Full of justice. Slightly cute.

The blonde blushed when she realized that her train of thought was now full of Natsu this, Natsu that. Something the bartender caught immediately. "Lucy? Is something the matter?"

"N-N-N-Nothing!" the flustered mage waved her hands all over the place. Mirajane cocked her head to the side, not understanding what Lucy was doing.

"Lucy!" a man called her from behind. Said person let out a tiny squeak and jumped in her seat. She turned her head to face the person who called her. "Natsu! Quit scaring me! One day I'll die of a heart attack!"

"Sheesh, calm down, weirdo," Natsu frowned. Hearing her irritating nickname popped a vein in her head. "I told you to stop calling me that!" she smacked his head. "Owww!" he yelped.

The bartender just watched the soon to be lovebirds and giggled. "You two are so adorable together," she murmured.

The two best friends quit bickering with each other and turned their heads to the bartender. "What?" they said simultaneously.

She turned around and hummed. "Nothing~"

A cough interrupted the noise in the guild. Everybody looked up from what they were doing and gave their attention to Master. "Everyone, I'd like to announce...we have a new member joining us."

The guild cheered. "Who?" "If the memeber is a chick, hope she's hot!" "Is he strong?"

The master silenced the calls with the raise of his hands. "His name is Alex Sapphire. Come on out!"

"Umm...you didn't have to announce it to the entire guild, Master Makarov," a man came out of his office. He was cloaked. No one could see who he was or what kind of physical traits he had. "Hi everyone, my name is Alex, as Master had already said. I am honored to be a member of Fairy Tail."

Master nodded. "That's it, go back to whatever you runts were doing." He turned around and began heading back to his office, but stopped when he was next to Alex. "Don't do anything stupid," he said before entering his office.

Alex smiled. "Yes sir." His eyes trailed over the guild and landed at where the bar was. Then he saw her. He clenched his shirt inside the cloak and bit his lip. After all this time, she had not once contacted him. Then his eyes widened as her image faded into nothingness and in her place sat someone else. Her long flowing orange hair was now at shoulder length and golden. Her bright emerald eyes were now replaced by bright chocolate ones. Her beautiful, smooth pale skin was now slightly tanned.

Alex blinked and wiped his eyes, making sure he wasn't hallucinating. She wasn't there anymore. Maybe he was just daydreaming. He walked over to the bar and greeted the bartender. "Hi, my name's Alex...could I get a stamp?"

The albino beauty smiled. "Sure Alex! What color would you like?" He thought about it. "Could I get...-"

"Alex! I like your haircolor! It's my new favorite color!"

He smiled. "Could I get light blue? And on my neck?"

"Alright!" she took out a stamp and stamped him. "Welcome to the guild, Alex! My name is Mirajane. Mira for short."

"Nice to meet you, Mirajane." He glanced over to the bickering couple. "Are those two dating?" Mirajane sighed and cupped her cheek with her hand. "Sadly, no. They look good together though, huh?"

Alex hummed in agreement. She continued on, "They are always together 24/7. Many people also agree that they should date. Too bad that they don't notice the feelings they hold for each other."

He sat down and continued to listen to the bartender. "The feelings they have for each other?" he repeated as a question. She nodded. "You should see how they act towards each other." He glanced over at them. The blonde had smacked the pinky with a blush on her face and he growled at her. He looked back at Mirajane and raised an eyebrow, pointing his finger at the 'couple'.

She sighed. "No, not right now. Just keep on observing them some other day. You should see how much they care for each other and enjoy each other's company."

Alex let out an 'Ah' and then turned to look at the two once more. He smirked. "I wonder what kind of 'accidents' can bring the two together?" Mirajane smiled. "I wonder...Are you thinking what I'm thinking, Alex?"

His grin became devious. "Oh you bet I am."

And like that, as soon as they met, the she-devil instantly befriended the mystery man.
