Levy McGarden looked out the classroom window to the view outside. She watched the track and field team race up and down the school field and their cheerleader's swaying their pom-poms. Levy sighed and looked back to the chalkboard. Her teacher was swaying her hips attempting to make whatever she was preaching more interesting. Levy was sure every boy in the class was watching.

She looked over at Jet and Droy, their faces proved her correct. Levy reached into her backpack pulling out her latest buy, a non-fiction novel and began to read it, hoping the teacher would not catch her. Normally she loved class, she got to learn more and add to her collective knowledge. That's what made her eligible for this school. Her intelligence and memory was far beyond others not only her age but older.

The only problem was that she seemed to have already learned everything about the class. Before the semester began Levy had already read the entire textbook and the Coles notes that went with it. She managed to convince her professors to let her take advance grade 12 classes, even though she was only in the tenth grade. She has always been smart, and good at convincing others.

Looking up at the chalkboard she hear her teacher say, "There are no such thing as stupid questions" Levy, closing her eyes, shook her head. No but there are stupid people, who are only capable of asking stupid questions. The thought caught her off guard; she wasn't one to be so critical of others.

Raising her hand she asked the teacher if she could step out for a little bit. Sitting up and silently opening and closing the door to the classroom Levy walked down the hallway, down the stairs to the first floor, and to the library. Ah… she always felt relaxed here. It was her safe haven.

Her school was called Fairy Tail Secondary School. It was a boarding school, for teenagers who were typically on their own. (Orphaned?) There was another school nearby called Phantom Lord Secondary School, if she remembered correctly. She knew her own academy and theirs had a long feud between them. Her school was known for its large amount of gangsters.

Levy's edges of her lips perked up. The sound of the bell went off, which meant the school day was done. Heading up the stairs back to her classroom Levy packed her stuff up and went to find Jet and Droy. The two boys had been her friends ever since they were children. Lately both of them had become increasingly overbearing. According to them, the gang wars between her own school and others, primarily Phantom Lord, had become so bad that they stopped letting her walk back to the girls dorm by herself.

Signing, she let them lead her out of the school building and towards her dorm. Levy closed her eyes as she walked, smelling all the fresh scents in the air. Rain, Daisy's, Grass, Sand, Iron. Iron? Levy opened her eyes and noticed that her friend's expressions had changed.

Looking in front of her, her chocolate eyes were met with red garnet ones. The man in front of her was terrifying. He had multiple piercings on his face; she quickly counted between 15-20 visible ones. He had crazy long back hair. She noticed that he was wearing a uniform similar to hers, the difference being that it had the Phantom patch on it.

Her mouth formed a firm line. She continued to walk, even though her friends had stopped dead in their tracks. She had reached the scary tall man, and attempted to side step around him but found herself pushed away from him, landing herself on the ground.

Looking up at the dark haired man, she noticed his garnet eyes glowing and a smirk on his rough face which made the hair on the back of her neck stand up. Her hands began to feel sweaty and shake. This was not good.

"Do you need something" She called out to the pierced man.

"I've been ordered to send a message to fairy tail" he replied, the same sick smirk stuck on his face.

Levy had been scared for her life a few times, but this time seemed to be more rational. The man looked like a caged animal, thirsting for blood. She couldn't lie and say she had nothing to do with the Fairy Tail gang, considering she did. In a way all her friends were apart of then gang, and she was too prideful to deny it, even thought her survival instincts were telling her to do so.

Before she knew it Jet was sending a punch to the black haired mans face, and Droy was attempting to catch the man off guard from behind. Both of the men failed, and within a few minutes the red-eyed man had them both defeated. The man then turned his attention to levy, which had since gotten herself up.

She knew she should run, it would be the smart thing to do, to run the hell away from this man and go tell the principle or someone. But Levy McGarden was not a coward, and her pride would not allow her to run away. She knew it was stupid to stay and fight, she had never won a fight in her life. She was much better at debates.

Squeezing her fist Levy ran toward the dark man and attempted to punch him in the face. He easily dogged her attack and kicked her in the ribs, sending her smashing against a tree. Levy, coughing in pain, heard a Gihe, sound before she passed out.

Levy's eyes open slowly; she felt cold dirt beneath her. Looking up she saw that the red-eyed monster had pinned her friends to a tree. Levy felt her eyes water up from the fact that she was in immense pain.

She noticed that the man had begun to walk towards her. As he lifted her up, she attempted to bite his arm but failed. She felt a sudden blow to her stomach, realizing that the man had punched her in the gut.

Levy's eyesight wavered before going completely blank again.
