It's beena few weeks since Naruto joined the guild and he was loving it. With the left over money he had from his mother's, heboughta three bedroom apartmentthat was only 1,000 Jewels due the 4th of
every month. He had yet to take a job wanting to first get familiar with the guild members. Maceo and Wakaba he got along just fine with, he had yet to meet Laxus who was out on a job. Erza, Grey and Cana he easily got along with. He learned that
Grey
had a stripping problem being anIce Wizard, Erza was aRequipWizardwhich was why she constantly wore armor, and Cana wasCard Wizardand fortune teller. Like himself Naruto could tell that each of them
/had a
reason why they were here.
Now we find Naruto at the bar with Grey enjoying a drink.
"Hey Naruto I just now realized, I have no idea what type of magic you do." Grey said getting the attentions of a few people.
"Yea what kind of magic can you do Naruto?" Wakaba asked puffing on his cic.
"Yea tell us Naruto." Cana agrees.
"Even I'm a bit curious." Erza said.
Naruto was starting to get nervous not used to being the center of attention.
"I useDevil Slayer Magic." He answered sheepishly. Only to have silence as a response.
"I never heard of that type of magic. What about you master?" Erza asked.
"I'm afraid I haven't heard of it either. Mind telling us what that is my boy?"
"Sure thing master.Devil Slayer, is a type of magic used to kill demons." Naruto said shocking the listeners.
"You're joking there's no such things. Demons can't die!" Grey said heated. Getting Naruto and the other to raise their eyebrows at his change of mood. All but the master who looked sadly at the boy.
"I assure you there is a such thing, and demons can die." Naruto said seriously.
"Oh? Then can you please tell us how you know this magic Naruto." Makarov spoke up before Grey could.
"Yes sir. I know of only two ways to learn this. One is by reading old spell books containing long forgotten magic, that are no doubt in some long forgotten library. The second is by learning from a demon themselves. That's how I learned to be one, my
/mother taught me this magic." Naruto continues to explain further shocking the crowd. "As for the whole killing demons part is also true, because while learning to be one. My mother and I would hunt down demons for me to kill. Being able to useDevil Slayer Magicmakes
/the wielder stronger by bathing in the blood of the demons you've killed. I've killed a total of 5 demons since learning this power." At this point of the explanation everyone's eyes were bugging out their heads.
"If you like, I can show you my strongest move out back." He said getting nods from everyone who followed him out.
"Does everyone have a nice view?" He asked once they were all outside.
"Yea." Was the choirs reply.
Getting in a ready stance, Naruto took a deep breath."Rage of the Shadow Demon!"He roared spewing out a tornado of black shadows. Impressing the crowd with theamount of power a boy his age possessed. All where impressed except
one black haired wizard who left. The only people who noticed was the guild master, Naruto and his friends.
'I'm honestly not surprised he left.'Makarov thought sadly knowing what troubled Grey. "Well Naruto my boy that's quite a talent you got there. Sadly however I can't let you take any contracts on demons, since they're all S-class." Makarov says
/congratulating the young wizard.
"It's alright master. I'm actually tired of killing demons. So even if I become one, I'll most likely leave those alone for awhile." Naruto said truthfully getting a nod of understanding from the master before leaving with the rest of the guild members.
"I take it you know where to find him?" Erza asked getting a nod from him.
~River Bank~
Like always when he was angry and needed to clear his headGrey went to the River to think, and he had a lot to think about. Ever since he learned how to use magic from his former master Ur, he never thought it possible there was actually magic out
/there that could kill demons. He was angry...no frustrated wishing he could take back what he did on the snowy night. He could still be brash in most situations, but that night also taught him to approach his problems cautiously.
"You ok Grey?" He heard Naruto ask.
"Yea. It's just surprising that there's such thing as magic that can kill immortal beings. Always thought that immortals can kill immortals." Grey answered.
"Everybody and everything can be killed Grey. Mother taught me that."
"What was it like growing up with a demon?"
"It was way better compared to my shit parents and hell hole of a home. For the first five years I traveled with my mother, I honestly felt like I mattered to someone, and that I had a purpose for the first time in my life. I'm not saying it was all gumdrops
/and rainbows, because it was tough. Everyday I worked to my breaking point and beyond. There were times I didn't eat, just so I could train my body to run what engergy I had. That meant no eating shadows or actually food. The first demon I ever fought
/was when I was six. It was my first real fight using magic. My mother wanted believed that experience was a far better teacher and she was right. With that being said, I still made mistakes and the biggest one of all cost me my right arm." Naruto
/tells Grey confusing the Ice Mage.
"What are you talking about Naruto? You still have your arm." His answer was the black haired kid removing the bandages revealing his demonic arm making Grey's eyes widen in shock.
"I lost my real one because I made a stupid mistake and got hit by an attack, I could have dodged. Of course killing three demons already I grew cocky. Remember Grey myDevil Slayer Magicdoes come in handy, but I'm still going up against
creatures
that's been around before we were born."
"Thanks Naruto, for explaining everything to me and for sharing the mystery of the bandages. I feel it's only fair I share something with you."
With that said, Grey told Naruto about his childhood and how he ended up in Fairy Tale.
~2 days later~
"So lighting rod thinks he's to cool for everyone?" Naruto asked no in general. He had just meet Laxus, if you could call him grunting at Naruto a meet.
"He's always been like that. You'll get used to it real quick." Cana says.
"I honestly don't doubt it." He sighed. "So I'm about to go on my first job here soon, would you like to...um. You know..accompany me?" Naruto asked blushing slightly, he wasn't afraid to admit that he thought she was cute and would no doubt become a
beautiful attractive women when older.
Cana giggled a little at Naruto's shyness. "I would love to go with you Naruto. Sadly I have to decline, I'm helping Erza shop for new armor. How about next time?" She suggested to which he agreed to.
~later that day~
Naruto took a job request posted by the council, to clear out a dark guild causing trouble in the town of Boone. The pay was 3,000 jewels. Shouldn't be a problem right? Well this is Naruto we're talking about.
"You must be the Mage from Fairy Tail yes?" The mayor asked once Naruto arrived.
"Yes sir. What kind of problems does the dark guild give you?"
"Property damage, muggings...and I'm ashamed to say this but rapes as well." The mayor says lowering his head in shame. It's his duty to protect to people of his town, yet the local authorities are defenseless against these mages.
"How long has this been going on?"
"The damage and mugs for six months. Rape cases started last month."
"Where can I find them?" Naruto asked having all the information he needs.
"Their building is just outside of town, you literally can't miss it."
"Thank you mayor." And with that Naruto disappeared into the shadows freaking the mayor out, only to appear outside the guild hall. At first he was just going to send them packing licking their wounds. Now after learning they raped innocent women, it'll
be a miracle if they all lived.
"Show time." He muttered angrily, his blue eyes turning demonic red and black tribal tattoos racing over his body completely covering the right side of his face, black shadow like fog emitting from his body."Rage of the Shadow Demon!".
