A/N: Okay, this is a story that me and my friend Erin decided to start writing. The backgrounds to the characters will eventually be explained. Just bare with us and please excuse any errors. We tried our best, but please, read and review.
-Erin-
I growled as the wind whipped my hair about my face. Liz and I had come to this city to see if we could find the famous guild known as Fairy Tail. Only thing was, was that we had no idea where it was. The sun was just starting to set, making the sky a series of pinks, purples, and oranges. The September air was chilly, not quite freezing, but still enough to need a jacket.
"So you have no idea where this guild is?"
Liz asked me as we walked down yet another street, only to end up back where we started.
"Oh shut up."
I snapped as we started walking down the main street of the city once again.
'I don't even know why she's following me, she knows I'm going to get us both lost.'
I thought to myself as we headed back to the fountain in the middle of the city.
"You know what, why don't we just take a break for a while?"
Liz said and I sighed before sitting down next to her.
"Fine."
I said as I looked up at the sky, trying not to get annoyed. We had been walking around all day, and still hadn't been able to find the Fairy Tail guild. I mean, how hard could it be to find one friggin guild?
Suddenly, I felt the presence of another Celestial Mage and looked around until I saw a blonde haired girl with her hair tied up in a ribbon to the right side of her head with what looked to be brown eyes. She had a curvaceous body that was shown off in the white and blue blouse, and blue skirt she was wearing. There was a whip curled up on her hip, and a set of keys on the other side. I noticed she had a pink insignia on the back of her right hand. It looked a lot like the Fairy Tail insignia.
"Hey Liz, isn't that the blonde haired ditz from Fairy Tail that was featured in that sorcerer magazine that you bought off that girl a few hours ago?"
I asked and she looked up to where I was staring at the girl.
"You know, I think you may be right."
She said and I smiled.
"Why don't we go see if she can lead us to the guild? That way we won't have to keep walking around in circles trying to see if we can get there on our own."
She said and I turned to her with a frown.
"What? You know it's true. You suck with directions."
"Then why the hell did you let me lead!"
I snapped and she just smiled up at me.
"Come on, I want to get to the guild before the sun sets."
She said as she pulled me over towards the blonde haired girl who seemed to be looking through the window of a clothing store of some sort.
"Excuse me."
Liz said to the girl as we reached her and she turned to look at us.
-Lucy-
"Excuse me."
Someone said from behind me and I turned to see two girls. One had crimson colored hair that went down to her waist with the bangs swooping down across the left side of her face, barely covering one of her brown eyes. She was about 5'8" and was wearing a white sleeveless blouse and had a red choker ribbon with what looked like a silver angel wing hanging from the center of it. She had a black coat that went down to the middle of her calves, and a black mid-thigh skirt with white leggings that had intricate red swirls going up the outer side of her calves. She looked to be about eighteen. I noticed she had four keys hanging from a silver ring dangling from one of the loops on her skirt. One was jet black, and I noticed that the other three were gold.
'So she has Zodiac keys like I do.'
I thought as I looked at the other girl standing beside the Celestial Mage. She had midnight blue, short cropped hair and golden brown eyes. She was wearing a faded teal hat, with a white insignia in the middle of it. A black, leather jacket and a teal colored tube top that covers her upper body, but left her stomach exposed. Her lower body was covered in a teal colored skirt with a white belt, black and white stockings, and black shoes with the same insignia mark that was on her hat. She had a teal colored teardrop hanging from a chain around her neck. She was about 5'4" and looked to be about seventeen.
"Yes?"
I asked curious.
"You're a member of the Fairy Tail guild, right?"
The blue haired girl asked and I turned to look her in the eyes.
"Yes, why?"
I asked warily.
"Would you be willing to show me and my friend the way? We've been trying to find it all day and my friend here is absolutely horrible with directions."
She said and I smiled as the red haired girl glared at her friend.
'They seem like pretty nice people. I might as well help them.'
"Sure, follow me."
I said as I turned towards the guild and started to lead the way.
I heard both of them gasp in surprise and I turned around to look at them.
"You're telling me it's been there the entire time!"
The red haired girl said and I laughed as I continued to show them the way. Once we got to the door I froze at the sound of things being thrown and crashing inside.
"Not again."
I said as the two girls caught up with me.
-Liz-
I was confused when I heard the blonde haired girl say 'not again' until I heard the sounds coming from inside the guild. I pushed open the door and walked inside with Erin following right behind. We stopped and took in the scene before us. Mages of all kinds were fighting. Chairs, tables, plates, and a variety of different objects were flying through the air. Magic was being used when fists weren't and fists were being used when magic wasn't.
'This is definitely our kind of guild.'
I thought as I continued to look around.
"Lucy! You're back!"
A girl with long mid-back length white hair which seemed to curl slightly at the ends yelled over the noise of the fighting mages. She had two bangs framing her face, though part of it was put up into a short, upward ponytail. She had what looked to be blue eyes and a curvy body. She was wearing a long, sleeveless maroon colored dress with a large pink bow adorning her chest and she had a small chain necklace with a blue oval gem attached to it hanging around her neck.
"Hey Mirajane!"
The blonde haired girl yelled back in response.
'So, the blonde's name is Lucy.'
I thought to myself as I turned back to look at her.
"Who are you're friends?"
The white haired girl asked and Lucy froze. She never asked us for our names, and we'd never asked her for hers. I decided to be nice and save the blonde from embarrassment.
"Hello, my name is Elizabeth and this is my friend…."
I said trailing off for Erin to introduce herself.
"Erin."
She said and the white haired girl, Mirajane, smiled at us as we walked up to the bar.
"Well welcome to Fairy Tail, my name is Mirajane."
She said and I smiled at her.
"Thanks."
I said as I looked around.
"So, what usually causes these brawls?"
I asked as I looked back at her.
"Oh, it usually starts because Natsu and Gray see each other. After that, the rest of the guild just joins in."
She said with a smile.
"Natsu and Gray?"
I asked and Mirajane nodded before pointing out into the crowd.
I turned to see who she was pointing to and saw a boy with light tan skin, and spiky rose colored hair. His Fairy Tail stamp was on his shoulder. He was fighting against a boy with spiky black hair that was in nothing but his pants. I saw an X shaped scar on his abdomen. His Fairy Tail stamp was below his collarbone on the right side.
'Oh my damn, he's hot!'
I thought to myself as I looked at the shirtless boy.
"So which one is which?"
Erin asked and Mirajane started to explain who was who until the black haired boy knocked the rose haired boy into me.
"Hey!"
I yelled, but they ignored me and went back to their fight.
"Oh hell no. Liz, hold my jacket."
Erin said and I turned to look at her with wide eyes.
"Erin…"
I started, but she'd already thrown her jacket at me and ran into the crowd of fighting mages till she got to the rose haired kid.
"What is she gonna…."
Mirajane started, but stopped when we saw Erin punch the rose haired kid in the face, sending him flying into the far wall of the guild. Everyone froze for a second and I could have swore I saw Erin smile before she was lost in the sea of fighting mages.
"She never misses a chance for a good fight."
I said with a sigh as I turned back to the bar. I laid Erin's jacket down and looked back at Mirajane.
"Is she always like that?"
Someone asked from beside me and I turned to see a slim young woman with long, wavy brown hair that almost reached her waist. She had a curvy figure, and her Fairy Tail stamp was black and on the lower left part of her abdomen, right above her hips. She was wearing a light blue camouflage patterned bikini top, and a pair of calf-length brown pants with two bands hanging from each leg. She had a pair of metal bracelets adorning her biceps, and a couple of round metal bracelets on her right wrist.
"Sometimes, yeah. Who are you?"
I asked and she smiled at me.
"My name's Cana. You're new around here right, care for a drink?"
She asked and Mirajane shook her head at her.
"Cana, don't be getting the new comers drunk."
She said, but I smiled and shook my head at her.
"No, it's alright. Actually, I'd love a drink."
I said and Cana smiled at me as Mirajane set a mug of beer in front of me. I lifted it in toast with Cana before chugging it. I finished before Cana and set my mug down.
She stared at me in shock before smiling at me.
"You seem to be able to drink pretty well for an outsider. How bout we play a little drinking game."
She said and I smiled at her.
"Alright, what kind of game?"
I asked.
"Simple, we both drink and the first person to pass out loses."
She said and I smiled as Mirajane set down another mug for the both of us. I raised it and clinked it against Cana's.
"You're on."
-No one-
Liz and Cana continued their game while the mages of Fairy Tail continued their brawl, Erin among them. Liz had just downed her seventy-third mug of beer when Cana fell off the stool and slumped to the floor.
"Seems like I win."
Liz said and Mirajane and Lucy both looked at her in shock.
"What?"
Liz asked innocently.
"No one's been able to beat Cana in a drinking contest….ever."
Lucy said and Liz just shrugged.
"What can I say? I'm an experienced drinker."
-Liz-
I drank the rest of what was in my mug and set it down.
"Would you like another?"
Mirajane asked, but I shook my head.
"No, I only finished that because she was paying for it."
I said and Mirajane smiled before taking it away and cleaning it. I saw Erin come up to the bar out of the corner of my eye and turned to her.
"I thought you were fighting."
I said and she turned to look at me.
"I was, but I got bored."
She said while rubbing her knuckles.
"You bruise them?"
I asked and she shook her head.
"No, just punched some guy in the nose that had a lot of metal in it."
She said and I shook my head at her.
'That explains why that blue haired chick was screaming that metal faced boy's name.'
I thought to myself with a smile.
Just then the doors of the guild burst open and everyone froze where they were. I noticed that the rose haired kid that had been knocked into me and the black haired boy he was fighting suddenly had their arms around each other as if they were the best of friends while they faced the door.
"Welcome back Erza."
They said and Erin and I turned towards the door to see a girl with long scarlet hair, a slender figure, and large breasts. She was wearing armor of some sort, a blue skirt and some black boots. She looked around the guild and narrowed her brown eyes. As we looked at her, Erin and I had the same thought.
'Who the fuck is she?'
