Fiore in Magnolia, July 5th X784
I smile as I stand at the entrance into Magnolia and feel excitement but also relief at what has transpired from his two day trek from Hargeon to Magnolia.
I had decided to pick a relatively private and undisturbed spot in the forest the day before to try and summon both the tiger spirits.
I did not expect to have to fight them in such harsh and close combat soon after I summoned them, I think of the encounter with a slight groan and fear as my muscles and body still felt tired and sore after winning them over with my fighting capabilities and powers as a Summoner.
One Day Ago, Forest leading to Magnolia
I take a deep breath as I ready myself in summoning the two Spirits I have been dying to meet.
I take my stance as I go through my now usual summoning stance.
"I am the one who shall create a path to the Celestial Spirit World; Hear my call and pass through the Gate!"
"Open, Gate of the Tiger! Tigress & Lei Shen!"
I brace myself for the torrent of magic that is released as a large amount of it is let out as the portal created becomes a seal of magic that has similar characteristics to Sun's own magical seal except now it has the same symbol from the key I have just used in its center.
I watch as smoke begins to appear like my other Ancient Celestial Spirit Summons as from the smoke a light begins to shine as it takes the form of two tall beings that are soon revealed as the magic is complete which causes the smoke to be blown away and to reveal the two spirits.
One is a tall male who I can see is a somewhat humanoid Tiger as he has mostly the features of a tiger but is standing up and proper like a human with a tail also behind him.
The other is similar but has a more female form as she is a little shorter and it seems a different breed of tiger as he can tell the difference between them with the position of their stripes and other characteristics.
The male is wearing a blue shirt that is covered by a leather vest like waistcoat and long black trousers that end at his revealed feline clawed feet.
The female is wearing a red vest with golden vine patterns decorated on the vest with a black trim around the vest and metal fasteners along with a waist strap; she also wore what looked like black silk trousers and black sandals that appear to be designed to fit her pawed feet.
They both have their eyes closed for the moment as I then watch their tails flick back and forth, making me almost hypnotised by their motion until they suddenly open their eyes making me nearly jump at their intensity and possible power that they both wield.
The female Tiger, who I can easily guess why she is called Tigress for obvious reasons, had eyes of a burning orange that made me feel as if I were not her summoner but her prey for her next meal.
The male, whose name is a odd name Lei Shen; which I guessed had something to do with his powers over Lightning, had eyes of yellow which I guessed was to signify his power over such magic as I could swear there was a spark of electricity that flashed from them.
I gulped at the tense atmosphere that began to saturate our surroundings as I felt a bit hesitant to speak to them but was cut off from doing so by the man who I decided to call Shen as he spoke in a deep voice that literally exuded power.
"So, this is the human who summoned us; I don't see much in this weakling of a mage."
I felt anger growing at the snide remark towards myself as I almost replied in return with great hostility, however I was again interrupted but this time by Tigress.
"Now brother, we have to give this mage a chance to prove himself if we are to be summoned by him again; if we allow it."
I felt my anger ebb away as I listened to Tigress speak as it gave me an opportunity to speak but now, however; I was interrupted again and this time by Shen who growled at first but appeared to calm down as he spoke to Tigress.
"Very well, Sister."
I almost sighed in relief at being able to speak now as I quickly did before I was interrupted yet again.
"I just want to say that I will try my utmost best in winning your confidence in me."
Tigress nodded at my reply while Shen seemed to scoff at my words making me form my hands into fists as I resisted the urge to slug him one.
I took a deep breath as I tried to keep calm in front of the two spirits as I asked them a important question.
"So what is my challenge to be able to become your summoner?"
I soon felt nervous at the smirk from Tigress and the sharp toothed grin from Shen as they both spoke.
"Your task will...(Shen)"
"Be to fight...(Tigress)"
They stepped forwards as they then stood back to back.
"The both of us!"
I now felt a feeling of great trepidation as from their physical presence and way that they held themselves that this was going to be one of the most difficult challenges I will have ever faced bar facing the Dog spirit who was a swordmaster of great skill.
I still remember the bruises, almost broken wrists along with the sprained hands and sliced appendages from that fight.
I shake off those memories as I return to my current problem.
I could fight them both at the same time but that would be a little too dangerous at the moment as while I can fight multiple opponents it is only if they are not very strong in combat or can be defeated very easily.
I would feel better fighting them one on one so that they both could judge me individually and on a more personal level if it was a one on one fight.
I ask them in curiosity if they would be willing to do so.
Their reply was only a few moments of silence and looks between them as they both spoke as one yet again as they said to me, "Agreed."
I now think on who to fight as while I very much would like to fight Shen first I feel that fighting Tigress would be a better chance of starting this challenge.
I watch as Shen backs away until he is laying his back against a tree in a seemingly safe distance as myself and Tigress begin to get ready.
I go through a few stretches and warm ups to get my body ready to face a fight against the female tiger spirit.
Tigress only does one stretch and gets into a fighting pose I can vaguely recognise as being similar to one Monkey showed me but never taught me.
I can guess that this was his reason for doing so, the chance to fight against a technique and style in Kung Fu that I have not faced against.
We both begin to slowly circle one another as I keep my senses sharp as I listen and look at any sort of action that Tigress may give me.
We circle another for another tense filled moment as we both attack at the same time.
Tigress goes for a forward lunge as she thrusts out her now clawed paw with her right going towards my head as her left paw is kept at her ribs near her waist.
I lean back quickly and do a backwards flip followed by a forward attack, as soon as my feet hit the ground once again, as I go for a series of palm strikes, punches and kicks to test her defences.
She either blocks them with her arms or her paws.
I can feel my arms tire as they hit her paws as it feels like I am punching a steel wall.
I ignore the pain as I concentrate on landing a hit.
I keep at it as I try to find a weak spot or opening in her defences but it is difficult in finding one as I am almost completely focused on withstanding her attacks as she returns to attacking me with great force.
I try and block another forward claw strike as I cross my arms to lessen the blow but it is a trick as the arm that she kept by her waist is now thrust towards my stomach; I try the iron body technique of Stone Monkey Style to protect that area as I am soon forced back a fair distance with my feet and body trying to slow me down as I stop soon after with myself beginning to pant at the exertion I am now feeling from making my body absorb and lessen the blow.
She speaks to me as she keeps her defence up, "Not bad for someone like you; could use some work though but it does seem like you were trained by someone who can actually fight."
I nod as I say back to her, "I know you know who taught me as the style I just used must be a big giveaway?"
She gives a small smirk as she says in return,"Wukong did say he had a pupil of his but I did not expect it to be you as he never gave us a description of who summoned him."
I shrug as I say to her, "I guess he wanted it to be a surprise to the both of you."
She nods as she soon says back, "I do want to see how far you will go with more training so I will concede this fight as a draw but it does not mean our fight will be over."
I feel a sigh of relief escape me but it is cut short by Tigress saying to who I guess is Shen, "Brother; You're up."
I have only a moment to set up some form of defence before I am sent flying backwards in a crackle of energy I can only guess is Lightning as I feel the tingle and slightly numbing feeling of electricity coursing through my chest that managed to get through as I can see the still forward stance of a punch thrown forward that is covered in Lightning Magic.
Shen soon speaks in a slightly condescending manner towards me as he says, "My sister may be a fair in her fights but I won't be."
He gives me a slightly bloodthirsty look as his eyes glow with power as he rushes forward with phenomenal speed as electricity crackles and fizzes around him, leaving a trail of power in its wake.
I take a involuntary gulp at my opponent as I go forth and meet him head on the best I can.
I yell out in hope that it will make me sound more powerful and threatening but it is drowned out by the snarl and roar of the Male Tiger Spirit as we meet in clash of strength.
Now
I shudder as I remember the beating I received from Shen as I did try my best with all that Monkey taught me but it apparently was not enough as Shen had enough power and magic to get past the defencive technique I used against Tigress.
After that it was a series of painful and harsh attacks of which I gave as good as I got in return which apparently made Shen only 'slightly' satisfied with my potential.
It was after they deemed me 'worthy' that I was allowed to summon them but only if it was against very tough opponents or I would be facing a even more painful fight with Shen of which made me promise to abide by their wishes.
I shake off the reminiscing as I realise I have been wandering a bit aimlessly and ended up in front of what appears to be a restaurant which was soon followed by my stomach giving itself a loud grumble which was easy to signify and remind me that I had not even had any breakfast or lunch yet.
I realise why I did this when I remember being in such a rush to get here after I awoke from my small campsite.
I am so glad that I had one of my Spirits teach me some Requip magic so that I could basically store a large amount of camping gear as before I just kept a small bag I got from a magic store that was much bigger than it was on the outside but I had to keep getting it repaired and upgraded at different magic stores as the bag's magic does not last long.
It was a task and a half learning Requip magic as I already mostly used Celestial Spirit Magic as I knew it was difficult for those who wielded magic to use more than one type of magic.
But it has greatly shown its benefits, but I still liked at least keeping my keys and money bag on my person for quick use.
I walked into the restaurant, of which I saw its name as I entered, "Cosette's Patisserie".
I smiled at the chance to maybe have a small sweet treat after my so called 'Brunch' as I loved having ice cream at some of the beach resorts and areas I visited now and again on my travels.
I was greeted by a very cute and smiling brunette in what appeared to be a very attractive maid outfit who appeared to be about my age or younger as she spoke to me.
"Greetings Monsieur, welcome to Cosette's Patisserie; how may I be of service to you today?"
I smile and reply in kind, "I would like a table for one please and could I have a pitcher of water for my table please?"
She nodded and bowed slightly which gave me a good look at her now more exposed cleavage making me inwardly grin at the sight.
She spoke again as she said to me, "Right away Monsieur; please follow me to your table and seat."
I followed her to a table, as I slyly kept my eye on the maid's backside as her skirt moved slightly as she walked which gave me a perfect view of her legs and upper thighs as her skirt 'just' obscured her hopefully sweet panties and derriere.
I quickly returned my vision to the maid's face as she turned and took out her arm as she gestured to the empty table and chair beside us.
I nodded and said to her kindly with a smile, "I thank you for directing me to my seat and table; it is always a treat to be served by such a cute girl like yourself." I finished saying to her as I gave her a wink.
Her cheeks turned slightly red for a moment as she appeared both flattered and embarrassed by my compliments.
I further ask her as I take my seat, "I see no name tag on your rather fetching uniform; could I have your name please?"
I give her my most charming smile as I watch her cheeks turn bright red as she begins to stammer slightly.
"M...My...Name?"
I nod saying to her, "Yes your name; unless you want me to call you beautiful instead?"
Her entire face looks to be turning entirely red with embarrassment and I hopefully think with deep flattery.
She then rushes out her answer as she then swiftly departs with what seems to be steam coming from her head.
"Igottagetyourorder,mynameisveronica."
I feel and let a smirk appear on my face at my handiwork as I watch Veronica, the waitress, depart to get my water.
I am so glad that I learned how to be suave with women thanks to Sun's help as he knew how funny it was to make women fluster and become embarrassed when faced with such smooth moves.
It certainly helped when on odd jobs and visiting other cafe's or restaurants like this with such delectably cute maids and waitresses who aimed to please.
I feel a small amount of lust grow in me as I watched the flustered waitress make her way to the bar, who seems unaware that her fast departure is causing the back of her skirt to flip up and flash me her panties and other undergarments on display from her stockings and hints of her smooth legs. peeking out of them.
"White, so pure and clean; makes me almost want to make them not so pure as I have my way with her as I play with her sweet ass."
I place a hand over my mouth to hide the grin of perversion I feel growing on my face.
But I calm myself down as even though it has been some time since I had some 'fun' I do want to at least ease my targets into doing those kinds of activities.
It was not so hard to become like this as with the amount of traveling and adventures I have had over the years it was necessary to visit certain 'places' to deal with my pent up energy and lust that came with traveling mostly by myself all this time.
So it became natural to have lustful thoughts quite a few times when I saw a pretty girl with a great body or cute feature that I wished to get 'closer' to.
I will always though be careful with my intentions as most of my encounters were mostly one night stands as I knew some women had pent up energy needing 'released' especially the women of the Guild known as Mermaid Heel.
I met them when I had travelled around where they were stationed and met some of the members who either were out on the town looking for some 'fun' of their own.
Of course I soon found out that a lot of the members of that guild turned to Lesbianism to help with their 'desires' but a few were Bisexual and into some 'really' good stuff to enjoy together.
I think on my last encounter with an inwardly goofy yet perverted smile as it ended up as a Menage Trois with him in the middle of two smoking hot women.
I shake off the perverted memories as I realise that Veronica is walking back with a tray holding a pitcher of water as I notice a glass along with it making me realise I never asked for a glass.
I shrug at my mistake as she nears me and places the pitcher of water with the glass on the table.
I thank her as I inwardly smile at her now yet again reddening cheeks of which she appeared to have calmed down from but it is no use as with her being back in my presence again has caused her face to redden once more.
I speak to her, as I peruse the menu I am now holding almost lazily in my hand, with a nonchalant voice.
"What are your specials for today?"
She stammers in reply slightly as she gives out a short list of the day's specials.
I listen to them as I decide on a choice of the small list.
"I'll have a Pain au chocolat with a Caramel Latte, followed by a Magret De Canard with a bottle of Red Bordeaux and finally as a dessert I'll have a Chocolate Meringue with Raspberry Rum Cream."
Veronica's eyes widen at my full course order but nods as she jots it down and soon departs to give my order to whom I can guess are the chef's of the establishment.
I am then distracted by the bell on the restaurant's door ringing as the the door opens to reveal a very pleasing yet surprising sight.
It is none other than Mirajane Strauss of Fairy Tail and one of the top female model's of Sorcerer Magazine.
She appears to have been shopping as she is carrying a ton of bags and items in her arms and on her back, She is greeted by one of the male waiters who has rushed to meet her as they direct her to a nearby table.
I smile as the table is right next to mine, meeting this woman could work out well as it might help me in finding Lucy seeing as they are both in the same guild.
I am snapped out of my ponderings by the sound of nearing feet in heels as they clacked against the floor making me look away and towards the noise as I spot the waitress, Veronica, with a tray holding my Latte and Pastry.
She appears to have calmed down from my earlier teasing as she nears my table and places the food items on my table as she bends down to place them there, giving me another good view of her nice cleavage.
She stands up and speaks in a kind yet pleasing voice towards me, "Enjoy your meal Monsieur."
She gives me a slight curtsey as she then leaves with a slightly hurried departure.
I hide a grin as I then focus my attention on my starter of the meal I am about to have.
I nearly moan in delight and ecstasy at the taste of my pastry as the chocolate is exquisitely tasty with it being just the right amount of dark chocolate to not overpower the taste of its light buttery dough along with the texture being a wonderful attachment to the entire ensemble.
I then try my Latte, gently blowing on its top in hopes of cooling it down a bit as I take a small sip; which is followed by a delightful warmth and taste of warmed caramel mixed with the rich coffee of the drink as I lick my lips in satisfaction at the creamy remains of the latte's topping.
I soon finish the starter and my latte as I wipe my face and lips with a napkin provided by Veronica.
I then turn my head to look at Mirajane as she appears to be enjoying some tea or other hot beverage along with a tropical fruit parfait, one of the items I saw on the special's list for today.
I take a deep breath as I speak towards her, which startles her a bit as she nearly jumps in her seat as a blob of frozen yogurt is now on the end of her nose.
"Excuse me, miss?"
I nearly laugh at the absolutely adorable look on her face, as she looks at me then at her nose as her eyes go a bit cross eyed trying to see the blob of white on the end of her nose; which further enhances the cute look on her face as she tries to lick the blob of frozen yoghurt with her tongue.
I react by grabbing a napkin and going over to her, as I stand and walk over, as I use it to wipe the end of her nose gently; I then ask her in my kindest voice.
"All better?"
She wiggles her nose in such a cute way that I nearly faint at how cute she looks as she then focuses on me and speaks to me saying.
"Thank you, for that assistance."
I nod as I say to her, "My pleasure, and sorry for giving you a fright its just I wanted to ask you a few things?"
She shows a surprised expression as she says to me in question.
"Oh, what was it you wanted to ask?"
I steel myself as I ask my questions.
"You are Mirajane Strauss from Fairy Tail aren't you and a model for Sorcerer Magazine?
She smiles and nods saying to me, "Yes I am, why do you ask?"
I rub the back of my head as a small amount of nervousness goes through me but I shove it down and answer her.
"Well its just I heard that you and your guild might have a new member recently and I might know them personally but I am unsure if the person will remember me or not?"
I see her contemplate my question and answer as she soon gives me a slight answer and a question with it.
"It is true that we did get a new member recently, what was the name of the person that you think is our newest member if you don't mind me asking?"
I take a quick moment thinking of what I should say as I can bet that if Lucy wanted to join the guild but not be scrutinized for being the daughter of a very wealthy and well known company owner then she may not have given her last name to the guild which was easy to understand and not be too nosy about as he knew that many people only had a given name and not a surname.
I hypothesized that it was possibly from being either orphans caused by dark guild attacks on people's homes and with the children being the only survivors or they were either runaways from abusive families that wanted nothing to do with their family name as they distanced themselves by either giving themselves new names or just sticking with their first name and nothing else.
I give my answer soon after my thoughts are cleared of indecision, "Her name would be Lucy and she would have blond hair and brown eyes."
I see Mirajane smile as she nods saying to me, "That is definitely our newest member, how exactly do you know her if you don't mind me asking?"
I shake my head saying to her, "Not at all, we're childhood friends and I haven't seen her in a few years plus I may want to join your guild but I am not sure if I should or not."
She is surprised as she says to me in said feeling, "I did not realise you two were that close, also why are you unsure if you want to join as I am sure you could if you talked to the Master of our Guild then I am sure he would be happy to let you join."
I sigh as I say to her, "We'll see, is it alright if I join you as its better to eat with someone than be alone."
She smiles at me as she says to me in reply, "Of course."
I grin a bit as I take a seat on the second chair that is at her table as I begin a conversation with her.
We chat about a few things like how the guild works and some of its members along with myself asking her about her modeling career.
She explains that she started doing it to help pay for the bills and damages to the guild hall along with stocking up the food for the members who ate there also, she then explains about how she began to enjoy modelling after some time doing it which ended up with her doing a small contract with the Magazine's owners.
She mostly did her modeling from a small studio that was stationed here in Magnolia which they usually had staffed by a few photographers and stylists to help her and other model's that were featured on the covers and parts of the magazine.
We are soon interrupted by the waitress who I quickly recognise as Veronica who appears to have a miffed expression as she holds my main course and bottle of wine on her tray.
I try and hide my gulp as I can guess that she is annoyed at how I am now talking with another woman when I had already flirted with the waitress before Mirajane arrived.
She speaks with a gritted smile as she slams my plate of food and bottle of wine down on the table making myself and Mirajane jump as Veronica says to me.
"Your main course, sir!"
She then turns away as she walks back or rather stomps back rather indignantly.
I see Mirajane has blinked in stunned confusion as she asks me, "What was that all about?" as she looks at me with her large doe like eyes.
I laugh nervously as I try to explain, hoping to not offend or upset the woman who was once known as 'The Demon of Fairy Tail'.
"Well, I may have flirted a little with that waitress while she was taking my order but it appears that she took it a bit more seriously by how she reacted to my being in your presence as she probably thinks I am a jerk for leading her on."
She looks a bit more at me as her eyebrow is raised as she asks me in a slightly stern voice, "Are you?"
I reply quickly in a nervous and stammering manner as I wave my hands about saying to her with panic.
"No, god no; I'm not!"
I then see a small smile grow as she then begins to laugh in a light giggle which soon turns into bursts of real laughter; making me stop my panicked state as I realise I have been just played by her.
I calm down but I look at her with a sly look as I comment on her dirty trick.
"Oh, you are good; really good at that!"
She calms her laughter an she answers back with a sweet and joyful voice, "Thank you."
I shake my head at her antics as I then take a look at my main course and I nearly salivate at the smell and appealing look of my meal.
The duck breasts have been cooked to perfection with just the right amount of pink and blood showing in its center along with the sauce for it having the faint smell of port and duck fat.
I take a nearby wine glass as I pour it into the glass with just enough to taste it and check if it is a good wine.
I take a moment to check its flavour as I can taste some spices along with what seems to be an almost chocolate like taste along with hints of blackcurrant and cherry to finish it off.
I nod as I accept the wine for its good taste and layers of flavour.
I take a look at Mirajane as she appears to have quietly finished her parfait as she had apparently watched me taste test the wine.
I ask her, "Would you like some wine?"
She smiles again in her sweet and innocent way and nods saying, "Just a small bit, I still have to carry all this stuff to the guild."
She gestures to the bags of items which I realise must be food and other items that need stocked for the guild she is a member of.
I smile at her as I fill her glass with a small amount of the wine as we both enjoy it together as I eat my main course with Mirajane playfully stealing bits of it from my plate to which I let her as it is nice seeing her expression as she tastes the duck and it's sweet sauce along with the garlic buttered and herbed baby boiled potatoes that came with it.
As we both finish my or rather our meal since we both ate it together, I realise that it is getting a bit late so I decide to have my dessert to be placed in a doggy bag, I call over a different server; this time luckily a man as I ask for my request for my dessert to be made to go.
The waiter acquiesced my request as well as taking the money for my bill and Mirajane's as I pay for both, to her minor protest until I told her it was for the pleasant company and conversation to which she gives in as I soon watch as the water goes up to what seemed to be the kitchen door and entered to possibly handle my dessert takeaway.
I ask Mirajane, "Do you want me to help with your bags as since we are both heading to the your guild then it would be better for me to offer my assistance?"
She tries to deny my help but I insist as she gives in as we both sit up and head towards the door to exit the small cafe.
I make sure to grab my bag with my dessert inside as I place it carefully inside my jacket so as to not smoosh my desert.
I open the door for Mirajane as I let her through saying to her in a playful snooty way.
"Ladies first my dear."
She giggles as she replied in kind saying, "Thank you kind sir."
I grin as we soon are laughing as the door closes behind us as we are walking away from the cafe and hopefully towards the guild I have been hoping to visit and see, Fairy Tail.
That is it for the now and I am sorry for the delay but I have had some very busy times since Christmas and New Years.
Which by the way, HAPPY NEW YEAR AND LATE CHRISTMAS; to all those I did not have a chance to greet and wish them a happy time for their celebrations.
I also have been having physical problems as of late but I will not get into them so for those who have read this I hope you have enjoyed what I have written so far.
Also I wish for many of you to vote on my poll I have up on my author page, I am getting some votes but not a lot.
Sorry again for the wait but you know how life is with its interruptions and drama.
So until next time we meet next chapter, that's all folks.
