"Please enter." Makarov Dreyar said. He was a short, elderly man. He has a black eyes and is growing bald with only the outer rims of his head containing white hair and he has a thick white mustache. As you know he was the present principal of Fairy Tail University and is greatly loved by all the students because of his supportive and approachable personality. He treasures the students and the school more than himself.
"You called, principal?" A young woman, who has long scarlet hair, brown eyes and has a slender figure, entered the door.
"Oh, it's you Erza. Take a seat please."
"Yes, thank you." Erza replied. She closed the door then takes a sit on the chair located in front of the principals table.
"So, how's the student council doing Ms. President?" Makarov said, leaning against his chair with his feet above the table.
"We're dong just fine. Though there's some problem concerning about the behavior of the students but it is not much of a trouble. We can handle it." Erza said.
"Good.. I called you here because there's someone I want you to take care of. She was a former student of Phantom High before the school got disbanded."
"Phantom High, huh. You mean that school were they treated their students like some kind of slave or trash are now disbanded?" Erza said questioning. "How dare they called themselves the number one school in Fiore when in fact they were the one who got disbanded." Erza continued.
"Now, now Erza, calmed down." Makarov said, then continued. "Well, I was the one who persuade her to enrolled in this school. She has a lot of capability which I think our school needs and can provide."
"So you're saying that there's something special about this girl? Like what, sir?" Erza asked.
"Well, did you remember the Fiore Schools Tournament that held last year?" The old man said.
"Yes, what about it?" Erza replied.
"Ummm... Where do I start.. Oh, yes, although we got the overall champion last year, there are some areas where we unfortunately lose or garnered the runner-up place. For instance, the swimming competition that Lisanna Strauss participated, then the singing contest where Lucy Heartfilia joined and the academic events were Levy McGarden compete. Those said events were successfully garnered by this Phantom Girl."
"If I think about it, last year's tournament Their school ranked in 3rd place. Could it be that this girl that you're talking is one of the rumored member of Phantom High's infamous Rain woman, Juvia Lockser?" Erza asked.
"Indeed. So, you already know about her. I guess I can leave her in your hands Erza."
"Interesting. Can I at least know some of her profile information and family background?" Erza said.
"Her profile states that her parents died when she was still eight years old. Since she was an orphaned at early aged,the nuns adopted her and treat her like one of their child. At the aged of thirteen she left the orphanage and live independently. That's all the information I've gathered about her."
"Phew,it's better to stay out of trouble on the first day of school." The blue haired girl said to herself leaning against a wall near the corridor with her hands on her chest. "I'm almost at my limit there, staying there for even a second can bring Juvia into a fight."
"E-excuse me miss, do you need some help?" A slim young woman of below average height approaches the girl.
The blue haired girl was startled because of her sudden has long white hair, which gets slightly curly at the ends, with two bangs framing her face and reaching down to her ample chest, and whose most distinctive trait is a short, upward ponytail obtained by gathering and tying the hair covering her forehead. She has large blue eyes and a curvy, voluptuous body, with large breasts.
"What a beauty." the blue haired maiden thought for a second then give her an answer. "Well J-Juvia wants to know which way is the principals office. Can you show Juvia which way is it? please."
"Of course. We can go there together since I'm also heading in that way." the whited haired beauty said.
"Thank you, Juvia is so pleased."
"J-juvia? Is that your name?" the girl asked with confusion.
"Y-yes,I'm Juvia Lockser." Juvia answered shyly.
"Nice to meet you Juvia. I'm Mirajane Strauss and I'm on my senior year. You can call me Mira if you want. What year are you in?" Mirajane said gladly while introducing herself, holding Juvia's both hands.
"Actually Juvia is a transfer student here and is entering as a sophomore."
"Is that so. Well welcome to Fairy Tail. I hope you will like it here." Mirajane said with a smile. "I think we should move on."
"Y-yeah, Juvia think we should." Juvia said. After their conversation they both head towards the principals office.
"Sir?" Mirajane said as she entered the door with Juvia behind her.
"Its you Mira, what do you want?" Makarov said.
"There's someone looking for you." Mira reaches for Juvia to enter the room.
"G-good morning." Juvia said shyly.
"Juvia! How are you, my dear?" Makarov asked
"Juvia is fine sir. Juvia wants to thank you for letting her go here."
"You're welcome." Makarov said. "Before I start, Let me introduced you to Ms. Erza Scarlet, the student council president."
"N-nice to meet you Ms. Scarlet." Juvia greeted Erza.
"Please just call me Erza." Erza said.
"I'm sure you already knew Ms. Strauss, the vice president." Makarov added.
"Yes, but Juvia didn't know Mira was a student council member." Juvia said.
"Since you are new here Juvia, Erza will be the one to guide and teach you regarding the campus rules. Starting today, you will have to stay on Fairy Hills Dormitory just like some of the female students here." Makarov explained. "By the way, Erza in what class does Juvia belongs?"
"Based on her previous grade records and the result of her entrance examination, she was put on class 2-A." Erza said.
"My, my, my, you're so smart Juvia-chan." Mira said smiling on Juvia.
"N-not really." Juvia said flattered by the words of Mirajane.
"We hope that you will continue it until the end of the school year." Erza said.
"Juvia will try her best Erza-san."
"From today onwards, you will be facing different new challenges and encounter different kinds of people. Are you ready to prove yourself Juvia?" Makarov said.
"Yes, Juvia is ready."
"Very well. Come, I will guide you to your new classroom." Erza said.
"Good luck Juvia-chan!" Mira wave goodbye and Juvia also returned it back as she exit the room.
"Good morning!" Natsu greeted everyone as he rushed through the room.
"Morning Natsu, Gray and Gajeel." Lucy greet the three boys. In response, Gajeel smirked and Gray raised his hand. Only Natsu has the energy to mingled with Lucy. Lucy has brown eyes and shoulder length blonde hair that is usually tied by ribbons in a small ponytail to the right side of her head with the rest of the hair loose. She was the female friend of Natsu and Gray and probably the closest to them. She is the only daughter of the Heartfilia household and also served Fairy Tail's council as secretary.
"Hey Natsu, mind telling me what happened to those two." Lucy whispered to Natsu.
"I don't know. Maybe they have their monthly period." Natsu laughed.
"Funny! oh, c'mon tell me already!."
"Okay, this is what happened earlier. We're walking towards the school gate together with Jellal when somebody bumped unto Gray that annoyed him plus when we are heading in here Gray mentioned that his mother will be coming home next week. That's all. After that Jellal then went separate with us. I think Jellal can finally be with Erza because I heard that this year, they belong to the same class."
"Well that's good since this is their final year in high school and soon be graduating. What about Gajeel?"
"Don't worry about him, he's just being unfriendly." Natsu said. On the middle of their conversation Levy approach them with some good news.
"Lucy! guess what, there's a new student here and I heard from Mira-san that she will become our new classmate." Levy said .
"Really?"
"Yeah, also she was the one who competed last years schools tournament. You know the one who defeated us."
"You mean that Phantom girl."
"Yes, exactly!"
"Ahammmm.." Erza clears her throat enough to be heard as she entered the class 2-A at the same time with their class adviser Gildarts Clive.
"Please take your seats. I have a special announcement, starting today you will have a new classmate." the whole class were filled with noise but Erza glared at them making them silent. "You can come in now." Erza said to Juvia.
The whole class remained silent as Juvia walks in front of them. She then starts to introduce herself.
"Hey, Gray! is'nt that the girl who bumped you this morning?" whispered Natsu who was sitting in front of Gray.
"So she's our new classmate huh,. Let's see if she's good." Gray thought, not listening to Natsu's question.
"Okay Ms. Lockser if you are finish introducing please take a sit on the chair at the back near the window right next to Mr. Fullbuster." instructed Gildarts. As soon as it settled Erza left the room.
Walking to her seat Juvia notices the man who were beside her and its no other than the man who she saw this morning. "Juvia hopes that transferring here can cause her even a bit of luck but Juvia thinks that bad luck is always after her. Oh, Lord why is it that Juvia must have to see the face of this man again!" Juvia thought.
Gray watch Juvia as she takes her sit right next to him. Gildarts starts the class as soon as everyone is complete. On the other hand, Gray still watch Juvia carefully, the way she moves and the way she speak. He doesn't know why, it's not his habit to stare on other people but there's something strange or mysterious about Juvia that he wants to know and uncovered, Maybe it was just his weird imagination.
Juvia was about to open her bag when she notice that somethings missing, it was her lucky charm, the teru teru bozu doll that she always kept with her. She search inside of her bag but she couldn't find it. "Where did Juvia put it,. Juvia swears that she bring it before she goes to school. Ahah! Juvia thinks that she drop it on the school gate but she thinks that maybe it was already gone." Juvia said in whispered but enough to be heard by Gray.
"She's weird. Why does I always been surrounded by those people." Gray chuckled a bit then proceed on listening to the teacher in front.
