It had been a few years since the incident with the now know monster called Terror of Death had attacked Elfman when he was possessed during a take over. Mira was now helping out around the guild, basically like an assistant to Makarov from what it looked like. Lisanna and Elfman were still doing regular wizard work. Sometime ago Erza, along with Natsu, Grey, and a fairly new member still, Lucy; went after the dark guild Eisenwald when they tried to use Lullaby on the guild masters.
Not long after that, a few rumors started to spring up about a recently formed guild called Raven. It was a fairly small guild at the moment, having only four members right now. The guild master of it, who was called Yata, apparently was a old friend of Makarovs and was sending over his new guild member there. He didn't really say anything about him besides that he's strong.
The guild was running normally when the entrance was kicked in. Everyone turned and saw a young boy, he appeared to be seventeen, but was kind of scary from the look of it. He had spiky black and red-gradient tipped protrusions littered all over his armor. His torso and abdomen was covered by a tight, leathery purple piece with a red tattoo on it. He also had facial marks, two curves on his cheeks, each with multiple juts coming out as they run down his face, He also had red eyes and spiky white hair.
Walking into the guild, he had a stoic expression on his face. As he got to the bar, Mira snapped out of staring at him; as did the rest of Fairy Tail. "Hey you," he said to Mira, who just smiled at him. "Yes? What can I do for you?" She asked him politely. he rolled his eyes as he spoke again, "I'm looking for Makarov. My guild master sent me here to meet him. I'm from Raven." As she was about to ask about his guild mark, he turned his head the the right a little, showing a small mark on his neck that resembled a raven standing on a branch, and it was as red as his eyes.
Looking at the mark, she found the design to be a little odd, granted though what guild symbol wasn't. "Makarov should be back in just a while. Why don't you wait here till then?" Instead of replying, the boy just took a seat, putting his elbow on the countertop and his hand under his chin, yawning as he started to wait for the master to return.
It had already been two hours, and it was easy to tell the boy was really becoming impatient with having to wait this long to just meet someone. Suddenly getting up from his seat, he was about to leave when the guild entrance opened up. Standing there was Fairy Tail's strongest team, Natsu, Grey, and Erza. Their new member Lucy was there with them holding Happy, Natsu's little cat friend.
The people at the entrance felt exhausted after having gotten lost on their way back to Magnolia. "Hey old man!" Makarov heard someone yelling. Opening his eyes he saw a boy in some rather scary looking armor, white hair and red eyes asking for him. he didn't answer for a few seconds as he recalled what was he here for. "Ahh that's right. You must be from Raven correct?"
The white haired boy nodded, saying. "yes. I'm Haseo from the guild Raven. Master Yata should have told you why I'm here already."
Makarov, and everyone else was a little surprised he didn't seem to have a surname since he didn't say it. "Well then Haseo, follow me to my office." Said Makarov as he went up to the second floor, Haseo following behind. Once the two were out of sight the guild went back to its usual routine.
Makarov was sitting as his desk as Haseo took a seat in front of him. "Aren't you uncomfortable in that my boy?" Makarov asked him, who just shrugged in response. Sighing, he said, "So what does my old friend Yata want from me this time? Lately it's all about information with him." Haseo rolled his eyes at that. "You have no idea. Anyone. Yata sent me to ask if you know anything about a recent species of monster. There called AIDA, it's short of Artificial Intelligence, Distortion Anomaly. They seem to be some kind of monster that absorb raw eternano, leaving behind rather dead looking forests or wherever they are. Here's a photo of one of them." He said, pulling out a photo and handing it to Makarov.
Taking the photo, he couldn't really comprehend what he was looking at. It was some purple, translucent creature with black bubbles floating around it. "Hmm. Sorry I don't know anything, but I will see what I can find. I'll ask the guild if they can keep an eye out for them as well."
Haseo took a breath standing up. "If that's it then I'll take my leave. Also. If you are going to tell your guild, tell it too the ones who can keep a secret, Yata said something about the Magic Council not wanting news of AIDA to get out." Makarov rolled his eyes this time. "Figures the Council would be involved with this."
As Haseo was about to leave the guild he was stopped by some guy that was just a bit shorter then him with spiky pink hair. "Out of the way pinky." He said to him. "Not until you fight me, and the name's Natsu!" Haseo just stared at him with a blank expression before he started laughing hysterically. "As if, you couldn't even beat me no matter how hard you try."
