Alright guys, this is the second chapter to Club Fairy Tail. I'm trying to come up with a more interesting and catchy title, but I haven't yet. Anyway, this chapter focuses on Evergreen meeting the group and so on. I'm going to try to do better on the different points of view, but I'll try to make sure the transitions between characters is easy to follow.
I appreciate any and all reviews, especially the kind that have constructive criticism. I have a total of four chapters already written, and I am currently working on chapter five. I'm trying to keep a head that way I have enough time to build something up. Also, I haven't figured out how often to update this fic, but I'm going to give it a couple of days before I post chapter three. I'm hoping to have at least two more chapters written before I post again. Please hang in there, my goal is to make this my first completed multi-chapter story.
I do not own Fairy Tail!
Enjoy!
"So Evergreen, where's your audition?" Gray asked as he placed Evergreen's bag in the trunk of the car. "It's at Mermaid Heel. I'm auditioning to be a dancer." The two froze when they heard her destination.
"Why there?" Erza asked curiously as she turned the car on.
"I emailed them a video of my dancing and they called me for this audition. I have to go." "I didn't know Mermaid Heel was holding any auditions." Gray replied glancing at Erza. The red head glared, "They aren't."
"What?" Evergreen asked in shock.
"Mermaid Heel only holds dance auditions when they're feeling petty." Erza growled. "You still think they're mad about that?" Gray asked.
"Of course they are. They aren't going to give you an actual audition, Evergreen." The red head replied. "Wait, how do you know?"
"This club we know, they managed to pull this dancer they wanted, she used to dance at Phantom, but this other club managed to get her instead." "They've been hosting fake auditions for months, hoping to get her to audition. The only position they'll open is for her, they don't take anyone else, no matter how good they are." Gray replied.
He turned and smirked at Evergreen, "We know because our club snatched the dancer up."
Evergreen stared at them in shock, "Your club?" "It's actually half Makarov's club. The rest of us just work there, but it's ours." Erza smiled at her from the rear view mirror, "I think we have room for another dancer, Ever. You'll still have to audition. If we go straight there then you'll be just in time for rehearsals."
Evergreen looked unsure, but if Mermaid Heel was a fake audition she had nothing to lose. "Sure." They grinned at her as they drove off.
(The previous line break is just here to separate time. I didn't like the way it read without the line. Please continue reading!)
When Erza pulled into a parking lot forty-five minutes later, the woman gasped at the sight of the building. The outside looked similar to a castle, complete with stone statues and flags. Above the door, read the name of the club.
"Fairy Tail?" "Yep. Welcome to home away from home." Gray grinned. "Come on. You need to meet everyone. Rehearsal starts soon." Erza led the woman into the door and Evergreen was floored.
The brown eyed woman thought the outside was impressive; the interior was just as impressive if not more so. The club had a second floor, with a large open stair case that led to second floor. The first floor was open and there was a stage and lights, a bar to the left side, and there were tables and couches, it was one of the nicer clubs she'd ever seen.
"There you are Erza. I thought you were going to be late." A voice spoke up from behind the bar.
Evergreen noted the young girl who was cleaning glasses. She had to be at least three years younger than herself, and her pixie hair was a unique white that made her big blue eyes seem darker.
"No I'm here. Where's everyone else Lisanna?" "In the back getting ready, you're going to be late. Hi I'm Lisanna Strauss."
"Evergreen." The younger woman beamed at her, "It's nice to meet you. I hope you join our little family."
"Hey Lisanna I found those beers Levy was looking for. Where did she say they went?" Evergreen glanced at the man who entered the room and her breath hitched at the sight of him. The man was tall, taller than Laxus, and he was definitely more built. He had the same white hair and blue eyes as Lisanna. His eyes met hers and she flushed in embarrassment at being caught ogling him.
"Big Brother put them on the bar for now. I'll get through them in a bit. Meet our new friend Evergreen." Lisanna replied as she gestured to the woman.
Elfman gave her a friendly grin and offered her his hand. "Nice to meet you Evergreen. I'm Elfman Strauss." She cautiously placed her smaller hand in his larger one, very much aware of the difference in their size. However despite his much larger hands, his grip was gentle as he shook her hand.
"Evergreen is here to audition for the stage." Gray supplied before either Strauss sibling could ask. "Oh that's awesome! You better get backstage though. Cana doesn't like to start late." Lisanna replied.
"That's only if she isn't hiding somewhere guzzling down alcohol." Gray chuckled.
"I heard that stripper boy!" A new voice yelled from the stage, causing the newcomer to turn around quickly. The woman standing on stage had dark brown hair that fell down her back in waves, and her dark eyes were narrowed at the man beside Evergreen. The woman was wearing heels, a bikini top, and cropped yoga pants. "Who's the newcomer?" She asked.
"I'm Evergreen. Erza and Gray suggested that I audition with you guys instead of Mermaid Heel."The woman grimaced at the mention of Mermaid Heel before leaning back and yelling backstage.
"Hey Juvia! Add another one to the tally! They're damn desperate to have you!" There was a sound of laughter from backstage and mumbling that Evergreen couldn't hear.
"I'm Cana by the way." The dark haired woman replied as she jumped off the stage. Evergreen grimaced because the woman landed perfectly despite her heels that had to at least be five inches high, not to mention the platform. Cana approached her and quickly circled her, taking in her appearance. Cana studied the woman for a moment before she grinned and stuck her hand out, "Welcome to Fairy Tail."
The woman was confused. "What?" "You're in." Cana replied with a shrug, her grin never fading.
"Just like that? You don't even want to see me dance?" "I can tell just by looking at you. I'm a good judge of character. Trust me. You do want to be a dancer, right?"
"Of course!" Cana gestured to her still waiting hand and Ever grinned and shook her hand. "Thanks."
"Well before I send you backstage, I might as well introduce you to everyone. Get out here girls! Come meet our new member!" Cana yelled.
Evergreen heard the clicking of heels and the rush of bare feet as several women stepped out from backstage and approached her. Evergreen was surprised because none of the women looked the same, not even similar body types. The smallest one reminded Ever of a pixie, her hair was the color of the sky and her eyes were a beautifully dark hazel, and there was a unique innocence that shone through. Her smile was kind and it reached her eyes. She noticed Evergreen's gaze and smiled before offering her hand out like Cana had done before.
"I'm Levy, Levy McGarden. It's nice to meet you!" "I'm Evergreen."
"It's so nice to meet you! I'm Mirajane! I'm Elfman and Lisanna's older sister!" Mirajane looked like her siblings, with her long white hair and big blue eyes. Her bangs were tied up in a unique way that Evergreen had never seen before, but it suited the white haired woman. Her smile was sweet like her voice and Evergreen smiled back.
"Hi! I'm Lucy Heartfilia! I'm glad to meet you!" The blonde smiled. The first thing Evergreen noticed about Lucy was her breasts. They were rather large for a woman her size, but Lucy was beaming and she seemed so kind, Evergreen couldn't even feel slightly envious.
The last woman had blue hair slightly darker than Levy's that fell down her shoulders, also longer than Levy's hair. Her eyes were a dark blue that reminded Ever of the ocean. "I'm Juvia Lockser. It's nice to meet you! I'm also technically new to Fairy Tail."
"You already met Erza and stripper boy." Cana replied gesturing to Gray with mock disgust, but he just stuck his tongue out at her making the women giggle. "Anyway, I'm Cana Alberona, I am part owner of this lovely establishment and I'm the head dancer you could say."
"And resident alcoholic." Elfman teased, only for Cana to slam her elbow into his abs, winding him but injuring herself, based on the curses coming out of her mouth. Evergreen smirked.
These people were strange, maybe even insane, but she liked them already.
"So the girls here are going to show you to the back and then rehearsal is going to start. Think you can keep up?" Cana asked, the challenge obvious.
Evergreen's eyes narrowed in determination and she smirked, "Do your worst."
Cana laughed, "You're going to fit right in."
Woohoo! Chapter two is done!
I hope you all enjoyed it! I'm suddenly thinking that chapter three is going to be broken up into two parts. I'm not sure yet. Anyway I'll update in a few days. Review please!
