Fire Dragon, Money, and Bull

"Welcome to Fairy Tail!" Lucy and Sunshine both said as Natsu and Happy looked at the doors with a look of awe printed into their features, Lucy opened the doors; "We're back!"

"We're home!" Sunshine said as they all walked in, "I heard you went all out in Hargeon Lucy, you just had to go starting trouble-" and a kick was sent flying to his face along with a scream; "LUCY KICK!" the whole guild burst into laughter "YOU WANNA FIGHT?!" he said jumping to his feet but before Lucy could respond Natsu jumped in the middle yelling; "A FIGHT? I'M ALL FIRED UP NOW!" and punched him into a whole bunch tables "Now now Natsu, I think you need to calm dow-" Happy was trying to reason with him but was knocked into and bounced off a whole bunch of people in the process. Next thing you know the whole guild was in one giant brawl to see who the best was. Lucy just sighed and went to sit at the bar when Gray stood up and looked at Natsu; "who's the newbie?" Gray asked Lucy, "His name's Natsu, he's a dragon slayer like me!"

"Oh great, now we've got another one!" Gray said ,mocking annoyance "What's that supposed to mean?!" She replied giving him a 'Lucy kick' and sent him flying across the guild and into Natsu in only his boxers. "GRAY! YOUR CLOTHES!" Cana yelled while taking a sip of her wine. "I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THAT!" Gray yelled back and looked over the new guy "What you looking at pervert?" Natsu asked Gray, "Who are you calling a pervert? Salamander?"

"You! You pervert! You're not wearing any clothes!"

"GRR SHUT UP AND FIGHT MEEEE!" Gray yelled throwing a punch at Natsu, "Sure thing pervert." Natsu replied throwing a punch at him. And so the battle ensued, until a naked Gray landed on top of Lucy and Natsu stood in front of the two swinging Gray's boxers in hand. "Lucy, can I borrow your under-" Gray was cut off by another 'Lucy kick' "NOT AGAIN YOU PERVERTED SNOW CONE!" Lucy shouted after him. "Okay guys, I suggest you knock it off!" Cana said lifting up a card and a turquoise magic circle appeared in front of it, "Oh yeah? Says who?" Gray asked putting his hands in his 'ice make' position being surrounded by a cold mist as a blue magic circle came off of his hands. Then Elfman came out of nowhere with a purple magic circle coming off his one arm, then his arm turned into rocks. Loke was off to the side turning his ring so a green magic circle came off of it as he said; "You punks can be suck a nuisance…" Then Natsu light his hands on fire, the same way Lucy did it when battling Bora (but she had light), and exclaimed; "I'm ready for yah!" but then a giant foot stomped the ground and everyone looked up to see a towering figure. He looked around and bellowed; "You must be foolish, stop bickering like children!" everyone in the guild stopped what they were doing and froze. "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were still here Master," Mirajane said sweetly from behind the towering figure with no trace of fear what-so-ever. "HAHAHA! Man! Talk about a bunch of babies! Looks like I won this round you los-" but before Natsu could finish, 'Master' squished him with his giant foot, "Well seems we've got a new recruit," he said looking at the pink haired mage he just squashed. "GRRRRARAAAWWWWW!" He was yelling as he was surrounded by dust as he started shrinking in size, when he was done he ended up being about up to Lucy's waist in height with and orange and blue striped hat, white hair splaying out of the sides, and a white moustache. He wore an orange jacket with blue cuffs and a white shirt underneath with the Fairy Tail symbol on it along orange shorts. For shoes he had brown 'elf' like shoes. He stood up straight and raised his hand to wave hello and said; "Nice tah meet'cha!" Natsu stood up and looked down, "He's tiny! This little guy's really in charge here?" he asked to no one in particular, "Of course he is! Allow me to introduce you to the Fairy Tail guild master; Makarov!" Mira responded. Makarov turned around and jumped up on top of the railing on the second floor, but hit the railing on his way up. Once he was standing and ready he coughed to clear his throat and catch everyone's attention, "You've gone and done it again! You bunch of clods! Just take a look at how much paperwork the magic council sent me this time! This is the biggest pile of complaints yet!" He said holding out a stack of papers and waving them around, "Have you lost your minds?! All you kids are good for, is getting the 'higher ups' mad at me!" He was shaking and trembling with anger now, "However," he continued, and brought the stack of papers up high enough so everyone could see them easily. He then proceeded to light them on fire, "I say; to hell with the magic council" and he threw the flaming papers the side, Natsu then jumped up and started eating them. "Now listen up! Any power that surpasses reason still comes from reason right? Magic isn't some kind of miraculous power; it is a talent that only works when the flow of energy inside us and the flow of energy in the natural world are in perfect synchronization. To perform magic one must have a strong mind and the ability to focus, it should take over your being and come pouring out of your soul! If all we do is worry about following the rules then our magic will never progress! Don't let those blowhards on the council scare you, follow the path you believe in! 'Cause that's what makes the Fairy tail guild number one!" he said while raising his right hand in the 'number one' formation, but with the thumb pointed outwards to make it an 'L', and the whole guild burst out in cheers doing the same thing. Natsu looked at Lucy in awe and Lucy gave Natsu a little proud smile, as they both did the same 'L' thing with their right hands.

Mira held a stamp to Natsu's shoulder, and when she took it away he had the Fairy Tail guild mark in red on that shoulder. "There, now you're an official member of the Fairy Tail guild!" He looked at it and smiled thankfully, he then walked over to the job request board where Lucy was with Sunshine looking at the different job requests. "Hey Luce look! I got the guild mark on my shoulder!"

"Oh yeah? That's cool, I remember when I got my guild mark," she said but obviously pre-occupied as she was looking at the job request board for a good job request. "Make sure you pick one with a big reward Lucy!" Sunshine said from her feet. "Woah! 160, 000J for getting rid of some thieves!?" Lucy read of off one of the requests,

"Sounds good to me!" Sunshine stated, "How come my dad hasn't come back yet?" both Natsu and Lucy could hear little Romeo asked Makarov, "You're starting to work my nerves Romeo, you're a wizard's son, have faith in your father and wait patiently for him." Makarov replied, but Romeo wasn't too happy with his reply; "But sir, he told me that he would be back in three days. And he's been gone for over a week now!"

"If I remember correctly he took the job on Mt. Hakobe-"

"That isn't that far away! Go and look for him!" Romeo requested, getting annoyed that Makarov didn't seem to care. "Your old man's a wizard! There's no wizard in this guild who can't take care of himself! Go home and have some milk or something!" Makarov said taking a sip of his beer, "Stupidhead!" Romeo yelled to Makarov as he punched him in the face and ran off crying and yelling; "Darn it!" Natsu then looked at Lucy and said; "That was pretty harsh…"

"Despite what he said the master really is worried," Mira responded for Lucy, just then there was a loud crashing sound and everyone turned their heads to see a request punched into the board and then Nab yelled; "Oi! Lucy! Don't break it!" and everyone could see an angry Lucy and Sunshine walking out the doors following Romeo. "I don't know about this, Master. She's gonna try to save Macao." Nab said to Makarov, "She's such a kid," another guild member said, "She's just gonna end up hurting Macao's pride." Nab said again. "No one is allowed to choose the path others take. Let her be." Makarov replied. "What happened to her, anyway?" Natsu asked Mira, "Lucy's in the same boat as Romeo. I guess she sees a part of herself in him. All of us Fairy Tail wizards have our own issues of some sort. Whether it's scars, pain, or suffering…" Mira explained "Because when she was younger she adopted by a dragon, she taught her all about the world, the cultures, reading, writing. But one day, she just disappeared. So Lucy's been excited for the day she'll see her again." Natsu then looked to the door where Lucy had just left through.

~Time Skip~

"Why are you here?" Lucy asked in a sick croaky voice, "What's the big deal?" Natsu asked in the same kind of tone because they were both in a horse drawn carriage. "You and vehicles too… eh?" Lucy asked again looking at a motion sick Natsu, "Maybe it's a dragon slayer thing…?" Natsu asked looking at a motion sick Lucy, "Maybe…" was all she could reply with. After a while the carriage stopped and they both jumped up as if revived shouting; "IT STOPPED!" the exceeds looked at their respective dragon slayers and giggled.

"Sorry, this is as far as I can go!" The carriage driver called from the driver seat, the doors opened and the two dragon slayers and two exceeds were greeted with a full on snow storm on Mt. Hakobe "Wh-Whoa! What in the world?!" Natsu exclaimed looking at the snowy mountain side, "I'm freezing! I know we're on a mountain but it's supposed to be summer!" Lucy wailed while trying to get the blanket Natsu had on his backpack, "That's what you get for wearing light clothes," Natsu replied with a shrug. "Oh, I know!" Lucy exclaimed reaching for her key ring on her hip and grabbing a silver key with the face of a clock on it; "Open, Gate of the Clock Constellation!" she started chanting whipping the key around then shoving it into a blue magic circle with a lock in it, "Horologium!" she finished chanting and a humanoid grandfather clock appeared out of nowhere and Lucy and Sunshine huddled inside the little compartment with the blanket. Natsu and Happy looked over in awe; "Oh! A clock!" Natsu exclaimed, "cool!" Happy enthused. Lucy started talking but no one could hear it so Horologium spoke for her; "'I'm staying in here' she says." Horologium said.

~Time Skip~

"MACAO! YOU THERE?!" Both Natsu and Lucy were shouting along with the exceeds, then out of nowhere, a giant white and navy ape like thing came and tried to hit Natsu and Happy, but luckily they dodged. When the smoke cleared they could see it was a Vulcan, "It's a Vulcan!" Happy exclaimed, it sniffed around and then sped off in Lucy's direction. "Hey, you!" Natsu cried after it, but it already picked up Lucy and started running away (with Sunshine in hot pursuit) yelling; "Human girl!"

Lucy looked around and noticed she was in an icy cave near the summit of Mt. Hakobe and that the Vulcan that took her was dancing around her in a circle a little overly-excited for Lucy's taste. "Where's Macao?!" she yelled at it, the Vulcan cocked its head to the side and an anime question mark popped up above its head, "Macao! Where is he? I know you've seen him!" she yelled again but it just shrugged its shoulders and started to try to grab her with a strange creepy glint in its eyes. She didn't let that distract her from her mission so she stood up, wiped invisible dust off her outfit and light her fist up with that starry light (she had when fighting Bora) and gave him an uppercut to the chin, knocking the Vulcan back and into the icy wall of the cave. "All right, monkey! Where's Macao?!" she yelled again but took a step forward and slipped "KYAAA!" she yelled crashing onto the frozen floor. She got up, and started acting high and mighty again; "Where's Macao! He's a human man!"

"Man?" it asked, "That's right!" she exclaimed hoping to get information on her lost friend, "Where did you hide him?!" she yelled pointing an accusing finger in the Vulcan's direction, It still didn't give any clues. "Check this out, you perverted ape!" she exclaimed and light up both of her fists and ran towards him yelling; "Listen up! All the members of Fairy Tail are my comrades and friends!" it was at this time that Natsu and the exceeds came, but when they saw that Lucy had this covered they didn't make their appearances known, although they're hearing everything. "From Gramps and Mira to those annoying jerks Gray and Elfman!" Lucy continued as the Vulcan punched her but she blocked it by putting her arms in an 'X' formation, The Vulcan was running straight at her now, but she stood there waiting for it to get closer. "Sunshine, Natsu, and Happy are my friends, too." Natsu blushed a bit as a yellow magic circle with a dragon head in the middle appeared underneath Lucy's feet as she got ready to attack, "Which is why…" Lucy continued, and by now the Vulcan jumped in the air and was trying to punch Lucy as she was getting ready to attack with a twinkling yellow light surrounding her. "…I'm taking Macao back with me!" Lucy finished kicking the Vulcan in the stomach with light pouring out of her foot and adding damage, the amount of light tripled as it sent the Vulcan flying into the cave's ceiling making ice spikes fall and imbed themselves into the floor, the Vulcan took this as a good attack as it sent the spikes hurling in Lucy's direction. Lucy smirked and dodged each one with grace, but then slipped dodging the last one. The Vulcan took the opportunity and tried to punch her but she caught its fist before it could reach her, The Vulcan was trying its best to get the fist to hit her but she was stronger. She then came up with a way to get out of this terrible position, she smirked, then her cheeks puffed up and she looked around the fist as the Vulcan's face and chanted; "CELESTIAL DRAGON'S ROAR!" And a large beam of light shot straight at the Vulcan sending him flying into and destroying the wall on the other side of the cave. When the smoke cleared the Vulcan was laying upside-down with its arm crossed over each other, his legs spread open, and his eyes white to let you know he's out cold. Sunshine, Natsu, and Happy made their appearances known as they ran towards her yelling 'congratulations!' and 'you did it!' and stuff like that. But Natsu asked; "wait, weren't you supposed to ask him where Macao was?"

"Oh yeah… oops! I forgot…" Lucy responded scratching the nape of her neck. They then looked back to the Vulcan as a bright light surrounded him and a huge gust of wind came, but when they looked back at the Vulcan it was now replaced by Macao! (Who was in the same position) "Wh-What the…?!" Lucy exclaimed as her pupils constricted in surprise "Macao!"

"The Vulcan must've done a Take Over on him," Sunshine explained to Natsu and Happy while Lucy started to wrap him in bandages and tried to heal him with the little healing powers her celestial dragon slaying magic allows her to use. "Macao! Don't you dare die!" Lucy yelled at her unconscious comrade, "Romeo is waiting for you! Open your eyes!" Macao squirmed and started to open his eyes, "Lucy…"

"Macao!"

"I'm pathetic… I defeated 19 of them… but the 20th took over me… I'm really mad at myself…Damn. I can't face Romeo now…"

"Don't say that! Defeating that many is impressive enough!" Lucy said trying to convince her fellow guild member, Lucy then held her hand out for Macao to take, he took it and she helped him up with a smile on her face; "Now let's go see Romeo!" she exclaimed, and Macao smirked.

~Time skip~

The sun was setting and Romeo was sitting on the steps thinking to about a week ago;

~Flashback~

"Fairy Tail wizards are a joke! They're just a bunch of drunken cowards!" Kid #1 was saying to Romeo, "I'm going to be a knight when I grow up!" Kid #2 said, "Wizards stink like booze!" Kid #3 exclaimed laughing.

"Dad! Go on a job! I can't take this anymore!" Romeo exclaimed to his father, "All right!" Macao said with a smirk.

~Flashback ended~

Romeo was wiping some tears from his eyes when he heard his name being called; he turned towards the sound and saw Natsu and Lucy carrying Macao with huge grins on their faces. Romeo's eyes widened and so did his smile, his eyes started to water as he flung himself towards his father and they both felt to the ground. "Dad! I'm sorry!" Romeo exclaimed while letting the tears fall from his eyes freely "I'm sorry for worrying you." Macao responded hugging his son tightly, "It's okay! I'm a wizard's son!" Romeo enthused. Lucy, Natsu, and the exceeds were smiling at the adorable family scene when Macao said; "The next time those brats try to pick on you, ask 'em is their dads can beat 19 monsters on their own!" then Lucy turned and started walking away with a smile on her face and Natsu, Happy, and Sunshine following suit. But before they left completely Romeo ran closer to them and cupped his hands to his mouth to make his voice travel farther and yelled; "Lucy! Sunshine! Thank you!"

"No problem!" Lucy responded while turning around to wave, "You got it!" Sunshine responded doing the same, "And thank you too Natsu! Happy!" Romeo continued, and Natsu lifted his hand up to wave and Happy said; "Aye!"

Fairy Tail is one crazy, messed up guild, but the people are really fun, warm-hearted, and nice. I'm still a newcomer here, but I love this guild! Natsu thought as they made their way back to the guild.

The End.
