Fairy Tail's Angel chapter 02: Fallen Angel
BW: Hey everyone. BW here, with a new chapter. I haven't done a crossover in a long while, so hopefully, I might get serious about this.
(I don't own Fairy Tail or the SNO series)
Natsu wakes up, in the mysterious plane again. He was laid out on the ground, and then, sat up, wondering what's going on. Something seemed different this time. For starts, the girl from this dream is nowhere in sight.
"Treasure her..." said a familiar voice. Natsu turned, and sees the same girl from his dream. She floats up in the air with her wings out.
"Huh? What're you talking about?" Natsu asked the girl.
"Treasure her... treasure you angel... never let her go." the girl said, and ascends higher into the clouds, "Please..."
"Hey, wait!" Natsu yelled.
(-Reality-)
Natsu suddenly lunged up from his sleep, effectively, waking himself up. He found himself in a Japanese style inn room. He was in a futon, from what he could tell. Natsu is thoroughly confused now. Was what happened just a dream? Or did it really happen?
"Finally awake, Natsu?" Gray's voice asked Natsu. Natsu noticed Gray sitting beside him.
"Good morning to you, Master." said a girl's voice. Natsu slowly turned his head, to see the same girl who fell from the sky, sitting close by next to him. He froze for moment, wondering who she is, before it came back to him.
"Gyaaah! So it wasn't a dream?!" Natsu bellowed, now remembering what happened last night.
"Great... now he remembers..." Gray muttered, remembering what happened last night as well.
"Yeah... that winged chick who fell from the sky..." Lucy said, as she sat up from her futon. She still couldn't believe what she saw last night.
"Flashback time!" Happy announced, "Last night..."
(-Last Night-)
After the girl, apparently named Ikaros, fell to Natsu, and created the chain creating the chain connecting them together, time seemingly stood still. Natsu just stared dumbfounded at the chain rapped around his hand.
"... Wha... what the..." Natsu muttered before yelling, "What the heck is this?!" Natsu started yacking at the chain to get it off, but it wouldn't budge, "I can't get this damn thing off! What is this?! Dammit!"
While tugging and yacking with the chain, the angel girl felt a pull at her caller, pushing her forward. After one thing lead to another, Natsu found his face buried in Ikaros' breasts, and both of them in a strange position.
"Okay... this looks weird. I just know it." Natsu muttered.
"How shocking. I knew were energetic, but I didn't know you were this energetic." said a familiar voice. Sugata has apparently arrived on the scene, and just so happened to get a good look at their position. Happy was there too.
"Natsu, you look weird in the position." Happy teased.
"H-Hey! I didn't do that on purpose!" Natsu blushed, and jumped away from Ikaros, "I was just trying to get the chain off, and then...!" Natsu tried explaining himself, but Sugata doesn't really seem to care.
"Hmm... well, in any case..." Sugata paused, and glances at the angel girl. Her expression from before didn't change. "I've never seen or heard of this sort of life form before. However, I am sure of one thing."
"What could that be?" Natsu asked.
"She's a Resident of the New World!"
"How the hell did you come up with an answer like that-geh?!" Natsu barked, but suddenly tripped himself on the chain near his feet, and in the heat of the moment, fell on top of Ikaros again, and again, placed in an awkward position. "... Not this again..."
"Natsu..." whispered a familiar voice. Natsu instantly got a chill running down his spine the moment he heard it. He knew all too well whose voice that belonged to. He slowly turned around, to see his fellow guild members, Lucy, Happy, Gray, and most especially, Erza, and judging from the expression on her face, she looked real angry. Her glare proved it.
"E-Erza... guys..." Natsu whimpered, while sweating buckets, "It's not... what you guys think... I just tripped and this is... what happened afterword..." Natsu tried to explain himself, albeit nervously, until suddenly, the chain, inadvertently pull him into Ikaros' chest again.
BASH!
Natsu got knocked out. By who you may ask? Apparently, Erza.
(-Present Time-)
"... Right now!" Happy narrated.
Natsu clinches his fist after he got done remembering everything up to the point of getting knocked out by Erza. It wasn't difficult. Just a simple karate chop to the head. And it left quite a mark, in the shape of a huge lump on the top of his head.
"Is something the matter, Master?" Ikaros asked, in her quiet, soft voice. However, Natsu wasn't even listening.
"Damn... I'm used to things getting chucked at me, and Erza smacking me around, but some kind of weird chick falls out of the sky and says I'm her master... what the hell does that mean...?!" Natsu thought, thoroughly frustrated.
"He looks totally confused... not surprising. Even I can't figure out everything." Lucy thought. She began picturing Erza ordering Gray around after having knocking out Natsu, "After Erza knocked Natsu out cold, she ordered Gray to carry him back with us on our way here, and he's has been asleep every since. This is so crazy..." Lucy groaned.
Natsu, meanwhile, still trying desperately to figure everything out. All he was doing was making himself more frustrated.
"If you keep straining yourself like, you might make your brain explode." Gray said.
"Natsu, the winged girl might know about those dreams you've been having." Happy suggested, flying to Natsu.
"Huh? Yeah, good point!" Natsu smiled, and was about to ask Ikaros about his dream, but Ikaros suddenly appears right in front of him.
"Master... If there is anything that will please you, I will do anything. Please, give me an order." Ikaros requests of Natsu, completely submissive to him. Everyone in the room was shocked to hear this, most especially Natsu, who jerked up and started yelling.
"W-W-WHAT THE HELL?!" he snapped, "What kind of weird crap are you spouting?!"
"Angeloids were created for the sole purpose of pleasing our Master. Anything, and everything, I will do as commanded."
"Angeloid...?" Natsu asked.
"So submissive..." Lucy mumbled, "Um... were you serious when you said you'd do anything, and everything for Natsu?" she asked.
"Yes. I am serious. I will do anything, and everything, for my Master." Ikaros answered.
"Ohh, man... That could be trouble... real trouble. What if Natsu decides to do something totally weird, like for starters..." Lucy started imagining Natsu giving Ikaros an order like a king on his throne. In this illusion, he tells Ikaros to strip herself of her clothes, and she does so without no hesitation, much to his enjoyment. And then, like a looming dark shadow, he forces himself on her, with every intention of having his way with the poor angel girl. Every second this illusion went by, Lucy started turning blue in the face, wondering if Natsu would really do that.
"Then..." Natsu said, snapping Lucy back to reality.
Letting her imagination run wild, Lucy suddenly lurched forward, "Wait, Natsu!" she cried out.
"How about some food." Natsu finished.
Lucy fell over on her face the moment she heard that. "F-Food...?!"
"You want food?" Ikaros asked.
"Well, I'm kinda hungry." Natsu said. His stomach growled out loud to prove it.
Meanwhile, Lucy sighs in relief, "Phew... that was close... I thought he was going to get it on with this alien girl for a moment..." she thought, "But, this is Natsu we're talking about. He might pull some mischief, and be on the destructive side, but there's no way he'd think of something like that..." concluded Lucy. Suddenly, there was a intense bright light that nearly covered the room. Natsu, Gray, Lucy, and Happy gaze at Ikaros in shock, as she is the one who cause of the bright light.
It looked like there was something strange in her hand. That's what's causing this to happen. Seconds later, the light disappeared.
"W-What the...?" Lucy stared wide eyed at Ikaros, until a huge pile of food appeared from out of nowhere, and fell on her. "Buwahh!" Lucy painful cried. Natsu sat there frozen at what just happened. Lucy lifted her head up to glare at Natsu, "N-Natsu..."
"I... just asked her to bring me some of food, and then..." Natsu uttered in pure disbelief.
"All of that is here, because I used this." Ikaros said, holding up a strange looking card.
"What is that? Let me see!" Natsu demanded. Ikaros handed Natsu the card. Natsu stares at the card, with wonder in his eyes.
"In your language, that card is called a 'Teleportation Device'." Ikaros said.
"Teleportation?" Natsu repeats.
"That sounds interesting." said Erza's voice, shocking everyone in the room, expect Ikaros of course. If anyone has been wondering where Erza's been this whole time, she's actually been here the entire time, sitting in a chair, quietly. The moment everyone laid eyes on her, all they see is an serious glare, which leaves them scared stiff. "Please. Explain a little more about that card." Erza was not requesting, she was ordering.
"She looks pissed..." Lucy said in her mind. Saying it out loud was not in her best interest.
"The card let's me teleport requested material. I hear my Master's request, I can instantly teleport the desired materials necessary from the 'Synapse'." Ikaros explains. She showed no signs of fear in the face of Erza's wrath, given how calm her voice, and expression is. Then again, her expression was exactly the same as before, and has not changed since.
"The Synapse...?" Gray repeats.
"And... the Synapse... would be...?" Lucy asked, as she squeezed herself from under the pile of food. Happy helped her out a little.
"Unfortunately, I don't know. I was only manufactured recently, so I have no stored information related to the 'Synapse'." Ikaros answered.
"Is that all you're really telling us?" Erza asked, feeling more suspicious of this mysterious girl with wings.
"Yes. I am an Pet Class Angeloid: Type [Alpha]: Ikaros." Ikaros introduced herself fully, "I was made for the sole purpose of pleasing my Master."
"In other words... for pleasing Natsu?" Gray inquired. Ikaros nodded.
"She was... made...?" Lucy thought. Hearing something like that, sounded kind of sad to her. It certainly explain why she has wings on her back, and her mysterious abilities with those cards, though.
But, Natsu doesn't really seem care anymore. "Meh, all the stuff you've been saying makes no sense to me anyway. I'm hungry!" Natsu said, and began chowing down on the morning breakfast. As usual, he doesn't show any table manners. Ikaros simply sits next to him, waiting both patiently, and submissively.
"Looks like he's happy." Happy said.
"A little too happy." Gray said.
Erza kept staring at Ikaros, trying to figure her out. What are her attentions? And why is it that Natsu became her Master? In fact, what is Ikaros anyway? All of these questions plagued her.
"Um, Erza." Lucy caught Erza's attention. She could sense Erza's tension, "I think you're a bit overcautious about Ikaros. She doesn't seem like a bad girl." Lucy said, "And, I think all she wants is to generally please Natsu." she added. She already reckons Ikaros has done just that.
"That maybe so, but still, we don't know what she is, or where she came from. We should watch her for the time being, just to be on the safe side." Erza said.
"Yeah, I guess." Lucy agreed.
Natsu suddenly stopped pigging out, and started talking with his mouth. No one understood, but it sounded like he was asking something.
"You want to know what else the card can do?" Ikaros interprets.
"She understood what he said?" Lucy inquired, with a perplexed expression.
Natsu swallowed what he had in his mouth, so he could talk normally, "Yeah. What else can that thing do?"
"Anything." Ikaros replied.
"Anything?!" Natsu repeated, with a shocked expression.
"Yes. Anything." Ikaros replied.
"Anything, huh...?" Natsu grinned, meaning he was hatching something diabolical. However, it was seem Erza caught notice of that grin.
"Natsu... you wouldn't happen to be planning something unscrupulous, while under my watch, are you?" Erza inquires to Natsu, who instantly started sweating profoundly.
"N-No, ma'am... I'm not planning anything..." a sweating and nervous Natsu answered.
"Really?" Erza asked.
"Aye...!" Natsu squeaked.
"Aye?" Ikaros repeated.
"Aye!" Happy cheered.
"It doesn't need to said three times in a row." Lucy said.
"You guys seem like your having fun, this early in the morning." said Sugata, who appeared out of nowhere.
"W-What did you get here?!" Lucy yelled in shock of Sugata's sudden appearance.
"I hope you don't me digging in myself do you?" Sugata asked Natsu.
"Yeah, sure, go ahead." Natsu said, feeling generous enough to let Sugata eat some of it.
"Don't be so generous?!" Lucy yelled at Natsu.
"Thanks for the meal." Sugata thanked, and started eating.
"Don't blow me off!" Lucy yelled at Sugata.
"No need to be so cruel. I'm here with important news." Sugata said.
"Important news?"
"Remember that black hole I was talking about. It seems to have moved, after stopping by here." informed Sugata.
"WHAT?!" the Fairy Tail wizards exclaimed in unison. Ikaros remained silent.
"How do you know this?" Erza asked Sugata.
"After Ikaros' introduction, I went back to monitoring the black spot, and I managed to track it the town of Magnolia."
"Magnolia?! That's where Fairy Tail is!" Gray yelled.
"We gotta go back, and tell what's going on!"
"Hold on. I see no reason to alert them just yet. The black hole hasn't done anything yet since stopping by at your town."
"Still, we can't leave the situation as it is." Erza said.
"True." Sugata hands Erza a Communications Lacrima Crystal, "So keep this. Contact when you reach Magnolia. You're still on the job, after all." Sugata said. Erza nods. "By the way, Natsu. Back in the town where your guild resides, do you live alone?" Sugata asked Natsu.
"Huh? Yeah, just me and Happy..." Natsu answered. He was a bit confused at first, but then it came to him a bit later, "Wait, don't tell me...?!"
Sugata titled his glasses, "Since we don't know much about her, why not let Ikaros stay at your home?"
"Now hold on, don't just decided that for yourself!" Natsu yelled.
"She'll be stuck to you anyway, so long as that chain is still there." Sugata said.
"What?" Natsu looked perplexed. He look at his right hand, and noticed the chain is still rapped around it. "That's right... I forgot all about this chain..." Natsu had suddenly gone pale. He started to imagine what his guild mates would say if that learned about the meaning of the chain. They might get the wrong idea, and make fun of him for it. He suddenly crouched himself into a corner, in a depressed like state. "There's no way I can go back to the guild like this..."
"Master?" Ikaros asked.
"Leave me alone! I gotta figure out how to get myself out of this mess before it even happens..."
"Natsu, we'll have to go back to the guild, one way or another." Gray said harshly.
"Don't get all cold hearted on me! Why don't you put yourself in my shoes?! Then you'll see what it means to be a laughing stuck!"
"Why don't you quite bitching about making yourself look like a total fool of yourself? Wait, now that I think about, you already look like a fool." Gray insulted Natsu.
"What'd you say, Striper Boy?! I know you're not talkin' smack about me!" Natsu yelled at Gray.
"Oh, I'm talkin' smack! And I'd be happy to smack you in the face, ya Flaming Loser!" Gray barked at Natsu. Now they're ready to fight each other.
"There they go again." Lucy sighed. Erza sighed as well. She was going to stop them herself, but Ikaros, strangely, beat her to it.
"Do you have ill intent towards my Master?" Ikaros asked Gray.
"Stay out of this! You don't have..." Gray paused, when he noticed Ikaros giving him odd stare, "... any...thing ... to do... with..." Gray slowly uttered.
"Do you have... any ill intent towards my Master...?" Ikaros' stare starts to reek of a certain message. This message was telling Gray, "If you try to hurt Master, you die".
"No ma'am." Gray quickly answered, bowing to Ikaros politely, "None once so ever."
"Gray is bowing to Ikaros?!" Lucy and Happy yell together. Natsu and Erza stared at Gray's behavior with confusion. It was clear that Gray is somewhat intimidated by Ikaros, as evident by the cold sweat he broke into.
"Hey, Gray...?" Natsu stared at Gray with a perplexed look on his face.
"Well, I have to admit, it will be a problem explaining the circumstance surrounding this girl. And, we certainly can't have him going back with that chain around his hand." Erza said.
"Gee, ya think?!" Natsu yelled.
"Master. I have to ability to expended the chain at any length. And I can make completely invisible if you want." Ikaros informed, and suddenly, the chain completely disappeared from sight. Only a short section of the chain from her caller remained.
"If you could do that, you should have said it sooner!" Natsu yelled at Ikaros.
"I'm sorry." Ikaros apologized.
"Okay, can we get this freak show on the road?" Lucy asked.
(-Train ride back to Magnolia-)
Natsu, being motion sick, laid down on Ikaros' lap, as they rode the train. Lucy sat in front of her and Natsu, while Erza and Gray sat across from them.
Before they set off, Lucy and Erza picked up some casual clothes for Ikaros, so that she wouldn't attract too attention.
"Is Master alright?" Ikaros asked, concerned about Natsu.
"Don't worry." Lucy replied to Ikaros, "He just gets motion sickness. He'll be fine after we get off the train."
"Really?" Ikaros asked.
"Yeah." Lucy answered, "By the way, what happened to your wings?" Lucy noticed that Ikaros' wings had gotten shorter for some reason.
"Yes. I can make my wings size decrease at will." Ikaros explained as she turned herself around to let the others see her wings. They were indeed, smaller then they were originally.
"Wow, that's amazing! But, I'm not really surprised. Happy can do the exact same thing." said Lucy.
"I got wings!" Happy said, flapping his little wings. He sat with Lucy.
"Of course you do." Lucy said, before noticing Happy's sudden depression.
"But, hers are way bigger then mine..."
"Eh...?"
Meanwhile, Gray and Erza remain quiet throughout the trip. Gray was kind afraid to see or even look at the others with Ikaros.
"Does she scare you that much?" Erza asked.
"Huh? N-No... I just... uh..." Gray couldn't find the right words to come back with.
"I don't think we really need to worry about her." said Erza, "Though, she still leaves me with some doubts, I don't think she harbors any ill intent."
Gray stayed silent.
(-Magnolia train station-)
Team Natsu, and their new companion, Ikaros, make it to Magnolia. Natsu is feeling energized after the long trip.
"WOOOO! I'm feeling better!" Natsu happily cried out after stepping out of the train.
"See, what did I tell you?" Lucy asked to Ikaros.
"Master is energetic."
Natsu's energetic nature quickly disappears when he heard Ikaros say that. He's gotta do something about that, otherwise, things will get even more weird at the guild.
"You guys look like your having fun." said a familiar voice.
"What an amusing bunch." said another familiar voice.
The team turned their heads, and are shocked to see Sugata, and his childhood friend, Mikako exiting the train.
"Sugata?! And... Mikako...?" Lucy uttered in shock.
"Why're you guys here?!" Natsu yelled.
"Well, I heard from Eii about your angel friend, and said you guys were leaving. I remembered that I had a summer home here in Magnolia, so I brought him here." Mikako said.
"Go home!" Natsu barked.
"Unfortunately for you, Natsu, Mikako insisted on this. Besides, this makes things easier for us. Now, I can continue my research of that mysterious hole, and help you guys keep an eye Ikaros." Sugata said, carrying a few bags.
"They do raise a good point." Erza agreed.
"Well, I don't mind them, but, Ikaros..." Lucy glances towards Ikaros, who is, curiously, chasing a butterfly.
"Well, since she's with your firecracker friend here, how about letting her join your guild?" suggested Mikako.
"Huh?!" Natsu and Gray groaned.
"Sounds good to me." Erza agrees, bringing "why" looks on the two wizards faces. "If Ikaros is going to show up causally at the guild, we might as well let her join. Speaking of which, we should be going. We're causing a scene." Erza walks ahead, firstly, to pick up her huge amount of luggage, and head to the guild, with the others following suit.
"Ikaros, we're leaving!" Natsu called to Ikaros. She joins the others immediately soon after.
(-Later at the guild-)
Many of the members in Fairy Tail are astonished. After the team finally comes back to the guild, they, along with Sugata explain the circumstances about Ikaros, and the black hole that has moved somewhere above Magnolia. And, for mostly Natsu's sake, they kept the fact that he's Ikaros' Master out.
As they explain, all eyes were Ikaros.
"She fell out of the sky, and from this "New World"?" asked Makarov to Erza.
"Yes." said Erza.
"And, this "New World" black hole is somewhere above Magnolia?" Makarov remains. He turns to Ikaros, "Ikaros was it? Can you show me these wings of yours?" Makarov asked Ikaros.
"Master?" Erza gasped.
"Don't worry, Erza. It's not that I don't trust you. It's just that a story like that seems a bit tall for someone of my stature." Makarov said, "Now, please, show us what these wings look like?"
"Yes." Ikaros complied, and removed her jacket, to reveal her expanding wings. The members of Fairy Tail gazed in awe at their beauty. Pretty soon, most of them gather around to start asking questions, with some of the males asking her out, and some of them asking what kind of abilities she has.
"She's quite popular." Makarov said, "Well, I don't see why not. Let's have her join Fairy Tail."
"Um... are you sure about that, Master?" Erza asked Makarov.
"Of course. She looks like she could really fit in with the guild. Besides, she is pretty cute overall." Makarov smirked a silly smirk.
"I see..." Erza sighed. She thought this was typical of Makarov, but now she's relieved that he's letting Ikaros join the guild.
"You know, you're technically still on the job. How are you going to go about the business?" Makarov asked. Erza froze in an instant. She seems to have neglected to think about that. So did everyone else in Team Natsu.
"There's no need to worry. I have a feeling it will take some time to solve the mysterious surrounding the black hole, and Ikaros' involvement with it." said Sugata, "And I'll be staying with Mikako, so we'll be relatively close. In the meantime, you can take different jobs at your leisure."
"Besides, it's only worth 100 jewel." said Mikako.
"That too." added Sugata.
"Okay... we'll, I guess there's no helping it." Erza said. She turns around to everyone else in the guild, "Alright, everyone, there's no need to crowd Ikaros like that! Give her some space!" Erza said to the Fairy Tail guild members. They did as she said.
Moments later, Mirajane used the Fairy Tail emblem stamp to magically place the emblem on her right arm.
"There you go. It'll be a pleasure having you here with us." Mirajane smiled to Ikaros.
"Thank you for allowing me to join your guild." Ikaros bowed to Mirajane, as she thanked her.
"Oh, it's no problem." Mirajane bowed back to Ikaros.
"Not that exchange again." Lucy sighed.
"So, Ikaros, where will you be staying?" Mira asked Ikaros.
"The place of residence I will reside in is with my-" Ikaros' sentence was abruptly cut off with Natsu came up from behind to forcefully cover her mouth, to keep her from saying anymore.
"Natsu...?" Mira asked, surprise by Natsu's sudden action. She noticed that he was sweating profound buckets.
"Uhh... well... uh..." Natsu uttered, trying to find the right words to explain it. This caught nearly everyone's attention. "S-She'll... be... s-s-staying... with me..." Natsu leaked.
"WHAT?!" Elfman, Macao, Wakaba, Loke, yelled together at the same time.
"What the hell does that mean?! She'll be staying with you?!" Elfman yelled.
"Explain yourself, Natsu! What relationship do you have with this angel girl?!" Wakaba yelled too.
"Natsu, I'm also quite curious. Why is it that she has to stay with you?" Makarov asked, calmly. However, a raging aura slowly erupts from Makarov's small body.
"Um... well..." Natsu became more nervous by the second.
"Well, you see, he and Happy are the ones who found her. And since she doesn't know much about our world, we thought it might be a good idea to have Natsu take care of her." Sugata said.
"Huh?!"
"Are you sure that's the truth?" Makarov asked. He's more suspicious now.
"He's a got a point. Being with Natsu and Happy might driving the poor girl up the wall." said Macao. Wakaba nodded, showing that he agrees with his old buddy Macao.
"Who asked you two?!" Natsu yelled as he literally Fire Dragon Iron Fist smacked them so hard they went flying. Pretty soon, the entire guilds starts brawling with each other, including Natsu, like always.
"Wow, such chaos. It certainly looks fun." said Mikako, with a smile.
"It's more like pain in the rear, if you ask me." said Makarov.
"So this is what a guild is like, huh?" Sugata looks on at the guilds fighting with each other, "It almost looks like family."
Ikaros stood there, staring at the huge guild fight. She mostly kept her eyes locked on Natsu, as he fights with the rest of his guild mates. Lucy glanced at Ikaros.
"What's wrong, Ikaros?" Lucy asked the angel girl.
"Master, is fighting with others..." Ikaros said.
"Oh, that's normal. He picks fights with everybody." Lucy said, "Well, as far as normal goes for this guild."
"He looks like he's having fun." Ikaros said, "I wonder if I could fit in here."
"Like I said, don't worry. We've got a talking blue cat who can fly, and a load of other weirdoes here. You'll fit in just fine." Lucy assured Ikaros.
"Thank you, Miss Lucy." thanked Ikaros. Lucy smiled.
"Despite all the crazy stuff that followed after her strange appearance, we've got a new member joining us today. And her name, is Ikaros, the mysterious girl who fell from the sky. And the apparent servant girl to Natsu, as strange as that seems. I wonder how life will play out with Ikaros here?"
BW: Sorry this took so, but this ends chapter 02. There will be times when my creative spirit weighs down for a while. And, I'm trying to build that spirit up again. I hope you enjoyed this chapter. See ya around.
