Well this is the start of a new story~
I've had this idea from a prompt I posted on tumblr a while ago. Do I have a specific direction in great detail of what I'm going with this? Lol, no I don't, but I promise that I will not force anything that I might regret later down the road.
Anywho, thank you for taking time to read this story, and for any other returning readers who have read my previous works, welcome back. I hope this meets all your standards.
Let's get started.
Gajeel grumbled as he read the food section of the Magnolia Corner. One of Fiore's most acclaimed food critics paid a visit to the restaurant across the street from his.
More specifically, the restaurant owned by…well, her. Gajeel Redfox's number one rival: Levy McGarden.
For the past year, the two upcoming restaurateurs have been butting heads constantly. The man owned a hip yet upscale bar with gourmet versions of classic bar and Americana cuisine. The woman managed a simple and dainty French restaurant. Both tried their best to outdo the other. They had the best chefs and staff and were always pushing for innovative ways to get customers.
Gajeel finished his coffee and stood from his seat. He exited onto the main street and made his way to the meat purveyor who was set up down the street. He checked his watch—7:15a.m. He snickered. This was the perfect time to go there. He'll get first pick of today's freshest stock before the little bluenette can even get out of bed.
He entered with a grin on his face. "Good morning, got the best for me, yes?"
The main butcher scratched his head and shook his head awkwardly. "'Fraid not Mr. Redfox."
Gajeel's ears twitched awkwardly. "…what?!"
The back door opened, and a small woman with short curly blue hair walked into the main entrance carrying a basket which held several packages wrapped in white paper.
"Thank you Hank, have a good day." She smiled as she headed towards the door. She chuckled as she walked past Gajeel. "And same to you Mr. Redfox, but please don't look so glum. You know what they say: the early bird gets the worm." Then she was gone and walking down the street towards her restaurant.
Gajeel muttered several curses as the butcher laughed to himself. Gajeel ignored him before he went back to get his chef's order. God I can't stand that bloody woman.
In another incident, the little blue haired woman sat by a window in her small restaurant enjoying a cup of tea. It was still morning, but she pondered the prior day's events. Redfox had received some news that his restaurant would be featured on one of the most popular food television networks.
How in the world could this happen! McGarden did not hate the man entirely, but the food industry was filled with competition. This would certainly not help her restaurant and could steal her clientele once the show airs.
One of the waiters placed a small breakfast in front of the woman.
No there was not really anything the woman could do anything about Redfox's TV feature, but she could at least hope that she would be as fortunate as well. The woman felt eyes burning and looked up.
From across the street, Redfox was smirking at the woman. Once she looked up, he snickered and winked. McGarden returned his action with glare.
That bastard.
So this is a basic introduction to the story. Some plot details are still being worked out, but I hope to get it doing soon. Thank you for reading.
