So this is the second chapter, and the adventure begins! I still don't own fairy tail.
chapter 2
Gray Fullbuster wake up in a blurred. The room he slept in was gray, and his eyes tried to close again, but his mind tried to fight them. He'd almost lost it until Gray caught the sweet smell of pancakes on the skillet. He ran down the stairs toward the kitchen to see his mother making the pancakes he loved. Gray expected to see his mother, Mika standing by the countertop with her red-brown hair and a pink apron and wear white slippers. He expected her to look at him and say "Gray-chan, " and his father Silver sat at the table with the morning paper and a cup of coffee in his hand. Gray expected his father to finish his morning greeting. He expected it because that was what always happened in the morning. They always complemented each other, in sentences and ideas sometimes they didn't have to talk to know what the other was thinking.
Gray smiled to himself still blurred from sleep. He went into the kitchen and said, "Good morning, mo-" But he didn't see his mother but a girl his age with blue hair standing by the fry and making pancakes.
"Good morning Juvia," Gray said and sat down at the table next to that big man with bleached blue hair who laughed every time Gray accidentally undressed. Gray did appreciate the fact that he did not yell at him like Ur always did but laughing at him was not exactly his favorite thing also.
Juvia's Uncle started to laugh at him, and Gray saw that he was only in a boxer. "Didn't you even get dressed?" Bao managed to let out of his laughter. Gray became red but didn't go to cover. His stomach decided to eat first and then other things. He saw Juvia humming to herself as she turned pancakes.
Gary understood why he thought he was home. He hadn't slept in a room alone since the day Deliora attacked his village. Gray hadn't risen to the smell of pancakes ever since. Even the way Juvia hummed an unfamiliar song reminded him of his home, the happy house he'd had before. He didn't know if he liked it or not.
When the pancakes were ready, Juvia turned and jumped in alarm. "Gray!" She cried. He looked at her in confusion. "I said good morning, right?" He asked Bou.
"Yes, but Juvia in the mornings is more daydreaming than the usual Juvia." Bow said and winked at Juvia who had turned into a tomato at that moment.
"Uncle Bou!" She cried, embarrassed.
"Yes, honey?" He asked pretending not to know what he had done.
Gray laughed. He hasn't laughed and smiled a lot since the death of his parents, but this girl made Gray smiles and laughter more than anyone else he has met until now.
After breakfast, Gray and Juvia dressed and went to the train station with Bou. Bou bought them the tickets and Gray tried to protest, but Bao said, "That's the least I can do for you, you took her rain, and it's worth more than a train ticket."
Apparently, Bou had cooked them food and put it in a separate backpack. "There are a lot of sandwiches, snacks, and drinks that should be enough for you at least for a week if something happens on the road or you decide to go somewhere else." He handed them the bag and Gray took it and almost fell off its weight. "No way it's that heavy" Gray grumbled. Bao chuckled, "This is a magical backpack, it's much bigger than it looks." He squeezed Gray's hand.
"I'll miss you, my little drop of rain" Bow said, and he tried not to start crying before them.
"Juvia will miss you too, Uncle Bou." Jovia jumped on him and hugged him tightly. "Once you settle down, will you come back to visit?" Bou tried to make Juvia promise, and he succeeded. "Juvia will come visit, she promises!" She said, wiping little tears from her eyes. Gray felt a small twinge in his hadn't had anyone to visit. They are dead. "You're Gray, too," Bao said, and Gray looked at him in amazement. "Ok," Gray said and tried to look calm and not overjoyed.
The last thing Bou did was hand a little drop-shaped wallet to Juvia. "It belonged to your mother. I put some of the money they left here for you." He gave her one last hug and patted Gray on the shoulder and left. Juvia, who was stunned for a moment, shouted: "I love you, Uncle Bou!" And this time Gray was stunned he hadn't heard Juvia speaking in the first person yet. "Let's get on the train," he said.
They sat on the benches inside the train in front of each other. Gray stared at the window, and Juvia was staring at her purse.
"You better put it in your bag, someone can steal it," Gray told her. "Juvia knows, but she never saw anything of her mother before me," she replied in a whisper. "You lost your parents?" He asked, which made sense. Otherwise, why would she live with her uncle and not her parents? "Juvia's parents died on the job. Uncle Bou said it was a simple mission that got complicated. She was only a year old when it happened." Her voice was so quiet that Gray had to try to hear what she was saying. He nodded and looked back at the window. Gray would not share it with his past. At least he wasn't ready yet. The silence broke someone else altogether.
"Can I sit with you?" Gray heard the boy say. He had blond hair and square black glasses. In his hands, he carried a huge square bag. Gray wanted to say no, but Juvia preceded him. "Yes, Juvia thinks it would be great to meet new people." She held both her hands together and smiled at him. "It's nice to meet Juvia. My name is Pause Lightless."
Juvia gave Gray a threatening glare, and he sighed and introduced himself as "Gray Fullbuster." Pause ignored him and began talking to Juvia. "Where are you going?" Pause asked.
"Magnolia, and you're Pause-san?" Juvia continued the conversation "Magnolia too, this going to be fun." He said excitedly.
"Juvia agrees, but Juvia wonders what you have in your bag?" She asked about the huge bag he was carrying with him.
"That? is the book I read." He pulled out the huge book and left nothing in the bag.
Gray was shocked in the massive size of the book, but Juvia was excited. "What's the book about Pause-san?"
Before Pause could tell her, some people on the front seats were making noise and harassing girls. Pause changed for a moment. He went to them.
"You're too noisy," he said in a frightening quiet voice.
He smashes his book on one of their heads.
The argument went on, and they came to fight. Juvia and Gray were going to go to help Pause, but he didn't seem to need help.
"You're annoying me," he shouted at them. He opened the book, and all his pages were scattered.
"What's unpleasant," he said, "go away." A storm broke out from the pages and blew them away.
Pause returned to their seat. "I'm sorry you've had to see it, I sometimes lose my temper." He smiled at them and returned to the same happy personality he had before these people began to run wild.
Juvia and Gray were stunned. Not only were all three magicians but one of them had anger problems. At one glance, Juvia and Gray knew what to do. They decided to keep an eye on him and not trust him.
Juvia returned to the benches and looked for her wallet and could not find it.
"Gray!" Juvia screeched and surprised him. He sat in front of her didn't need to shriek. "My wallet is gone." She started to cry, and the sky turned dark, and a storm started.
Gray looked at the truck and saw the familiar clothes of the thief from the day before.
"Make ice: Wall" He created a wall of ice before the thief. Gray used the ice hummer again, and a small number of items fell from the thief.
"You just don't stop, huh?" Gray growled at him and picked up Juvia's wallet. He returned to the seat and brought her the wallet.
"This time put him in your bag," Gray said, looking back. The storm had disappeared, and the sky had turned bright again.
"Thanks, Gray!" Juvia said and hugged him.
"Oh, Juvia!" He tried to cut her off but could not. The train stopped. The driver told them were a two-hour walk from Magnolia and would have taken them to fix the problems for at least an hour or two.
Juvia and Gray decided to walk the rest of the way on foot, and Pause decided to join them.
"Why are you going to Magnolia?" Pause asked them.
"Gray and Juvia want to join Fairy Tail," Juvia said happily, but Pause didn't answer this time, and Gray had a bad feeling about it.
On their way in the forest, Pause, and Juvia stopped every few minutes to look at one or another flower, or at a pink squirrel with brown spots or a strange mushroom bush. A walk that was supposed to last for two hours became much more, and Gray wanted to tear off his hair of irritation. "Can you leave that already?" He said as he got annoyed by the minute.
Juvia left the Yellow Turtle quickly and moved forward, but Pause picked it up and approached Gray. "You can't say he's not cutesy." He brought the turtle closer to Gray's face, and Gray shifted back uncomfortably. The turtle was adorable, but he wasn't going to tell them that. Gray wanted to get to Magnolia soon. "He's not cutesy," he said coldly.
"Gray!" Juvia and Pause beckoned him together. He turned to them with an annoyed look that could kill a man. "what?" He asked.
"Your clothes" Juvia finished, and Pause looked at him a little startled.
Gray sighed desperately and went looking for his clothes. Next, to a tree they passed, he found his pants and near an entrance to a cave he found his shirt and jacket.
"Juvia, Pause!" He called them. No matter how Gray tries to control his curious side, he will not succeed but to master this adventurous and curiosity was too much for him.
Juvia appeared first. Even after their walking for hours she didn't look tired as Pause panted heavily.
"Juvia, why did you go that fast?" Pause said through the short breaths.
"Juvia didn't go fast." She looked at him in confusion.
"look what I found!" Gray told them excitedly. "There's a cave here."
"Juvia wants to enter!" Juvia exclaimed excitedly, and Paus looked disapproving. "What if something happens to us? We can't protect you, Juvia," he said.
"Juvia doesn't need to be protected!" She told him and went into the cave.
"Bravo Pause Now she's trying to prove herself." Gray groaned and followed her.
"But she's not a magician!" Pause said as he had followed them into the cave.
"Yes, she is," Gray said clearly.
They came to an orderly room with furniture, a library with small vials and a mirror.
"I wonder who lives here?" Pause said.
"Juvia thinks he should be intelligent." She looked at the books. Gray felt a mysterious power coming quickly.
"Juvia, Pause!" He said a black box with white marks floated in the air. "Invaders!" The crate began firing laser beams at them.
The three turned and fled quickly, and the box chased them.
"Juvia thinks we should do something!" Juvia shouted as she ran.
"Yes, ready at three?" Gary said.
Juvia nodded, and Pause kept running and hiding behind a bush.
"1" Gray yelled.
"2" Juvia continued counting
"3" They cried together.
Juvia screamed "water slicer" as Gray yell "Ice Make: Geezer."
They hit the box that exploded in the air.
Pause Lightless came out of the bush. "You're a good team," he praised them.
Gray grinned arrogantly, and Juvia murmured thanks and blushed.
"I'm sorry I doubted you Juvia!" Pause said, sounding sincere.
"Juvia forgives you," Juvia smiled at him. "But Juvia thinks we should go on before it gets dark."
Gray and Pause agreed with her and continued on their way.
They reached Magnolia just before it got dark and Gray had no patience to wait till the morning. He dragged them with him to the Guild building. The building is tall and has two floors. Decorated with paintings and the mark of Fairy Tail proudly displayed above the entrance.
"We're here!" Gray called in pride. He managed to get through this whole journey and reach his destination.
"Gray ..." Juvia called him "Juvia thinks we can't get in."
"What? Until I got here." He said bothered.
Juvia pointed on something on the door when he saw the page.
"We will not be here for a while." From all Fairy Tail
"Nooo!" Gray cried desperately.
"Juvia thinks we should wait for them to come back, let's go eat and when we will decide what to do."
Gray noticed that Pause was very quiet all the way to the restaurant.
They sat down in a cafe and ordered food while Juvia and Gray talked excitedly about Fairy Tail. "I wonder how they are?" Gray wondered aloud.
"Juvia has heard that fairy tail always break things," Juvia said, giggling. She and Gray had also destroyed a flying crate a few hours ago.
"Do you want to join Fairy Tail?" A new voice asked, thick with smoke. "That's what we're going to do," Gray said and saw a man with a black leather jacket and sunglasses, a cigarette in his mouth and an unnaturally large forelock.
Juvia nodded eagerly.
"You have nothing to look for, it's not a guild that's right for kids like you." he chuckled.
"What do you know about Fairy Tail?" Gray barked at him. Juvia gave the stranger a deadly look.
"I know more than you that for sure," he continued, grinning at them. Suddenly he flies in the air in a pink bubble. "what the hell going on here?!" The stranger shouted.
"Wakaba from Fairy Tail!" Shouted a familiar voice. Pause, and another group of scary-looking men stood at the end of the street.
"Pause-san?" Juvia whispered and pointed at him fearfully "What are you doing, Pause?" Gray shouted.
"You didn't ask yourself why I came to Magnolia?" Pause said darkly.
"I came to destroy Fairy Tail." He throws pink bombs at them, and they fainted.
"How can we follow him?" Gray asked Juvia desperately. "I don't know anything about trucking." He went on grumbling and didn't let Juvia get a word. "what can we do?" "Maybe we'll go to the army?"
"Gray!" Juvia cried out so he will pay her attention. "what?" He answered insultingly and did not regret it. Although they said they would not trust him, Gray didn't think Pause would betray them like that.
"Juvia knows where he is." She said, "Are you coming?" She walked in the direction of motels and stopped at the inn who had an underground bar.
"How did you know they were here?" Gray asked her. "Juvia wet Pause's clothes before and she can follow her water, she always could," she said sheepishly.
"It's amazing juvia," he said with joy and wonder. Juvia blushed and concentrated on what was going on in the bar below her.
"Gray, look, Pause-san!" She said quietly. Gray looked, and he was horrified. The blonde kid they come to know was lying there on the floor critically wounded, and next to him Wakaba tied. "what are we going to do?" He asked her.
"Juvia is going to flood the bar, and you'll freeze Juvia's water when they are frozen. We had a few minutes to rescue Pause-san and Wakaba-san."
Gray loved the Plan.
"Ready?" He asked her. Juvia was a concentrate of what was going on underneath her.
At the bar itself, people thought there was flooding from the toilet and when the liquids made to the middle of their feet. Gray kicked in the small window and jumped to the floor while he shouted "Ice Make: Floor" he touched the water, and they became very laborious and hard ice.
Juvia followed him in. She picked up Pause and Gray was on his way to Wakaba, but they didn't know the fairy hunters had a fire magician. He melted all the ice in seconds.
"Get pause out!" Gray told while he stood up to fight with the hunters.
"No!" Juvia screamed and put Pause down on the floor. "Juvia will stay to help Gray."
"Stop it instantly." A loud voice called out in space. Juvia and Gray saw at least fifty people in the shadows of the bar and an old looking grandfather with a long, luxurious fur cloak.
"How dare you put the finger on one of my children ?!" He shouted in rage.
"Fairy Tail Attack"
After they returned Wakaba and fought fiercely against the fairies hunters, Gray tried to save Pause, but the Master of the fairies hunters didn't give him up.
"Why is he wounded?" Gray asked angrily "Because he didn't kill you." The Master laughed wickedly "Did he have to kill Juvia and Gray ?!" Juvia returned after him in alarm.
"Piece of .." Gray started.
"Not Gray, Together!" Juvia grabbed his hand and composed her magic to his. "prepared?" She asked him.
He nodded. "Let's do it!"
"Ice Make: Geezer!" "Water Nebula!"
The Master froze on the spot with cuts all over his skin.
Gray and Juvia smiled at each other. "Master!" Wakaba called "Ummm, yes?" Makarov said while watching the two children perform magic that very few can.
"They want to join Fairy Tail," Wakaba said.
"I think we have a place for them," Makarov said with a huge smile.
