Chapter 3: Meeting the Ace
Had been nearly a month since Harry's encounter with Takeo and things had for the most part had calmed down. Sure there was the time that a young newcomer had joined the guild. Her name was Lucy Heartfilia and to say she was a beauty was like saying that the ocean is wet.
Lucy for being only seventeen years old had a very curvaceous body and large breasts. Lucy has blond hair tied up in a single bunch on the right side of her head. She had her Fairy Tail guild stamp on the back of her right hand and had it colored pink. From the keys on her belt, well other than a whip strapped to her left hip, were several ornate keys some silver and some gold meaning that she was a Celestial Spirit Mage.
Harry had gone on a few small missions but nothing big compared to his first mission. Most of his time was spent training his new student one Lucy Heartfilia. Harry had found out during his training with Isis that he could still use his normal wizard magic that he had learned at Hogwarts only. While he could still use this form of magic as well as his Dragon Slayer Magic it never felt right to him. Another problem is that the first time he used his wand the force of his magic caused his wand to explode. Harry knew that when he returned to Hogwarts he would have to talk to a wand maker about this new problem. Lucy while very good with her whip if she couldn't summon one of her spirits she was defenseless and that could lead to death on missions.
Lucy had shown that she was very intelligent and was lapping up the three years worth of knowledge he had about Hogwart's magic. To counteract the need for a wand Harry bought Lucy a ring that would act as a catalyst for this new form of magic. Harry had promised to buy a couple of books for Lucy when he returned to Diagon Alley in a month's time.
Harry sighed remembering that little detail in his life. In a months time he would be leaving Earthland and returning to England. He had grown to love his time at Fairy Tail that part of him didn't want to go back but he knew he promised Hermione that he would. He would miss this place but the one person that he would miss most was Lisanna Strauss. They had gotten close during his time at Fairy Tail and had gone a few missions with her and knew she was strong.
Lisanna's hair is a beautiful silver color that goes down to her shoulders, and she wore a short, dark red dress with a white collar and bow. Up on her arms above her elbows, she wore gold rings with a pale pink fabric flowing down from it. She wore tall, black socks along with brown shoes. Like her older siblings her magic revolves around Take Over magic.
Harry had told her that soon he would have to go back and after she had calmed down he had promised her that he would come back on the weekends to see her and everyone else in the guild. It took a while to get Lisanna's older brother Elfman to accept the fact that his little sister liked someone. Mirajane had happily accepted them being together since she knew that Harry was strong enough to protect Lisanna.
Harry sighed as he nibbled away at what remained of his lunch before he would head out for a mission that afternoon. As he finished he noticed that Master Makarov was walking over to his table. "Good morning Master."
Makarov smiled before jumping up onto the table with ease. "Ah good morning Harry I take it you are enjoying your stay here?"
Harry sighed. "I am master and truthfully I don't want to leave at the end of next month but I did promise a friend I would go back. I did promise Lisanna that I would visit as much as I can so there is that."
Makarov nodded in understanding. He had grown fond of his two newest 'children' as he called everyone in the guild. Like Natsu he saw so much potential hidden within him just waiting to be let out. "I see well that is comforting and we all have our own paths to choose so we must do what we think is right and keep walking forward. Now I do have a mission for you."
Harry's eyes widened at this news before his face turned serious. "What is the mission?"
Makarov held out a small leather bound journal. "I need you to take towards the town of Raizus Town near Mt. Zion. There have been multiple reports of Dark Guild mages in the general area. I want you to investigate these claims."
Harry nodded as he got up and placed his plate up before leaving to find Lisanna. After saying bye to Lisanna Harry gathered up his gear and hurried to the train station to catch a train heading north. Looking at the map the last train station to the north was Milsin Town which was close to Raizus Town. It would take several hours to reach Milsin so Harry pulled out a small journal that he had been writing in since his second year training with Isis. He had been working on different magical theories he had thought up. He was close to finishing one but yet at the same time he wasn't and it was starting to frustrate Harry.
Upon reaching Milsin Town Harry rented a Magical Motorcycle with an SE plug so he could reach Raizus Town quicker. Harry thought about if he survived this mission he would think about buying his own motorcycle. By the time that Harry arrived at Raizus Town the moon was high in the sky. The next morning Harry met up with the mayor and had been told some more details. Apparently the unknown mages have been noticed just outside the town near the mountains. The mages had yet to enter the town but they had roughed up anyone that had come close to the mountain.
Harry decided to head towards the area that the mages have normally been seen. He had left the town only a couple minutes before he heard a loud and very large explosion up ahead. Harry hoped that none of the town's citizens were involved in that explosion as he raced towards the explosion. Upon reaching the epicenter he noticed there were several unconscious people littering the area surrounding the large crater. Harry then noticed that there was a person in the middle of the crater.
The man was a tall and muscular man with shoulder-length reddish orange hair, which is kept slicked back, and some stubble around his mouth and on his chin. His attire is simple and practical, consisting of a dark, tattered cape over his bare chest, with a high collar and armored plates on the shoulders, held closed by a belt and usually covering his whole figure, and loose dark pants, complete with an armored waist-guard with plates similar to the ones on his shoulders, tucked inside simple boots. As the man stood there the wind blew his cape open revealing a black Fairy Tail mark on the man's chest. Harry eyes widen as he remembered who this man was from reading the guild's roster shortly after he joined. This man was the guild's strongest mage after Master Makarov Gildarts Clive.
Gildarts finally noticed Harry at the crater's lip looking down on him and grimace. "So another one wants to try his luck?"
Harry quirked a brow before realizing what Gildarts was meaning. Lifting his shirt showing Gildarts his own Fairy Tail mark Harry said. "I am on your side my name is Harry Potter."
Gildarts' grimace was quickly replaced with a smile. "Ah sorry, sorry I was getting annoyed from these idiots that I was about to attack you. Harry Potter huh you must be a new member? What you doing this far north?"
Harry nodded understanding the situation. "Yes I joined two months ago. I am on a mission that Master Makarov asked me to take. Apparently some Dark Guild mages have been spotted around this area recently and wanted me to investigate. I am assuming that these are members of the guild I was going to investigate. Harry noticed the guild mark on the unconscious mages and nodded. "I don't recognize the guild mark."
Gildarts had walked out of the crater and sat down on a boulder before answering Harry's unasked question. "They are with the Dark guild known as Tartaros. You haven't heard of them have you?" Harry answered no. "Okay then it is probably safe to assume you haven't heard of the Balam Alliance either. Okay the Balam Alliance is sort of like a truce between three of the most powerful Dark Guilds and their affiliates. Those three being Oración Seis, Grimoire Heart, and of course Tartaros. Out of the three Tartaros is the most mysterious guild."
Harry looked back at the nearest Tartaros member. "So do you know why they are here?"
"From what I got from them they are after an artifact called Nine Life Star. I am not familiar with what the artifact can do but if a dark guild like Tartaros wants it you can bet it is dangerous." Gildarts answered sitting down on a boulder. Harry nodded before thinking about what he should do. "You want to find this artifact?" Harry looked at Gildarts like he was nuts. "What this might led to a tip on my quest so if not it is no consequences. By the way what type of magic you use?"
Harry just smiled and thought that Gildarts was truly a member of Fairy Tail with that last remark. "Why not I have been kind of bored recently I use Sacred Fire Dragon Slayer Magic." Gildarts' eyes widened at Harry's answer. "It is very similar to Natsu's but my fire has a bit of light magic added into it."
Gildarts nodded before getting up and walking over to one of the downed mages and grabbed the man who woke up. "Tell us about this Nine Life Star you are looking for?"
The man looked at Gildarts in fear but defiantly said. "Like hell you stupid fly."
Gildarts snarled and looked ready to use Crash on him. "Wait Gildarts let me have a go." Gildarts nodded as Harry grabbed the man by his neck and asked the same question only to get the same result. This caused Harry to sigh before his whole arm and the mage to erupt in flames. The man yelled in pain as the fire burned his skin. "Now I reduced the temperature of my fire so that it won't kill you but if you don't start answering us I might lose control and turn you into charcoal."
The now burning man started to panic and scream louder. "Wait I don't know much we were just told to secure the site before she shows up. I swear that is all I know."
"Where is the artifact located?" Growled Harry as he tightened his grip and the fire's started to get hotter causing the man to scream in pain.
"It is in a cave about a mile in that direction I swear." Yelled the man before the flames died and with a single punch from Harry was out cold.
Gildarts smiled before clapping Harry hard on his back causing Harry to stumble forward. "Well that was easy and nicely done. So let's go retrieve this artifact before anyone else shows up." Harry nodded as the two of them made their way towards the cave. Reaching the cave they found no one there which made Harry smiled and they slowly entered. They had only walked a couple of meters before Gildarts slammed into an invisible wall. Harry had to fight the urge to not laugh at Gildarts face smashed up against something like an invisible pane of glass.
"Don't worry Gildarts I will be fine just make sure that no one else enters the cave okay?" Gildarts shook his before smiling and heading back towards the mouth of the cave. "Okay so now what?"
As Harry walked deeper into cave he ignited his right hand to use as a light. Harry must have walked for an hour or so but in truth it had only been ten or fifteen minutes before he entered a large cavern with a small shrine at one end.
"I see someone else is after this artifact. It is a pity that you must die here. You are a cutie." Harry dropped into a defensive stance and peered into the darkness trying to find whoever just spoke. "Tell me cutie which guild are you with?"
"Why don't you show yourself Tartaros Wizard afraid of a little fairy like me?" Harry shot back.
It was obvious that this new person was female but he still couldn't locate her in the massive cavern. "Fairy Tail huh? You are a little far from home what a little cutie like you doing way out here?"
"Just doing a mission you know the routine." Harry heard the unknown female snort in amusement. "I am looking for an artifact called the Nine Life Star. You don't happen to know where it is do you."
There was silence for several minutes before the female replied. "I see you are also after the Nine Life Star. Unfortunately my orders are to retrieve it and kill anyone in my way. Oh and just so you know the person that killed you it is Tsukiko Ito one of the lieutenants of Tartaros."
Harry expanded his senses trying to find this new enemy. Harry's eyes widen at the sound of metal cutting the sir behind him before quickly dropping to the ground. Harry looked up to see a very pale katana blade slice the space his chest was a second ago. Harry pushed off and landed several feet away. "That was close. So you must be Tsukiko."
Tsukiko was a stunningly beautiful young woman in the mid twenties at most. She had long midnight blue hair that went down just above her waist that was braided. She wore a blue battle kimono and knee length black shorts.
Tsukiko smirked before holding her sword in her left hand behind her and held her right palm towards him, and then a dark purple intricate seal appeared. "That is correct little boy. Take this Dark Magic: Crescent Stream! (1)" After saying her spell two fist size streams of dark magic raced towards Harry. Harry's eyes widen right before he dodge to the left looking back as the two streams sliced the rock column behind him in thirds. Before the spell canceled out Harry notice that the head of the two streams had a crescent blade that stood out from the rest of the spell.
"That was close. So you use dark magic? Well let me so you the sun my dear." Harry slammed his hands together in front of him and his gold magic seal appeared. "Sacred Fire Dragon Roar!" Harry took a deep breath and let loose a large stream of gold fire towards Tsukiko. Tsukiko jumped to her left to avoid the jet of fire receiving a few burns in the process. "You are fast so let's try this." Harry's magic seal appeared below his feet and golden fire swirled around the edge. "Sacred Fire Dragon Doragon Jambe." Harry dashed towards Tsukiko as speeds she wasn't expecting. Tsukiko quickly ducked under blazing roundhouse kick aimed at the space where her head had been a second ago.
Tsukiko growled before a grey magic seal appeared around her sword's hilt. "Dark Sword Magic: Reaping Sword Gale!" (2) Tsukiko swung her sword which caused a whirlwind like effect that made standing extremely difficult especially if you didn't count the numerous black blades of wind swirling around as well. "You are still alive little fairy right?" When the dust settle Tsukiko smiled at the sight of Harry still standing with his arms crossed over his face his body covered in little cuts. "Oh you are still alive oh goody more fun for me."
Harry could help but silently thank Isis for teaching him Dragon Slayer magic right now. His skin was like a human version of dragon scales so you needed a lot of power to truly pierce his skin. "Sorry but I am going to end this Sacred Fire Dragon Sniper." Harry leveled his new bow and arrow at Tsukiko who's eyebrow quirked at him. "Phoenix Eclipse! (3)" The arrow in Harry's hand turned a bright white with flecks of gold mixed in. Harry let go of the arrow and as soon as it left the bow it split into three smaller arrows all in the shape of phoenixes. The arrows all exploded on contact tearing apart a good portion of the cave. Harry could hear Tsukiko's screams of pain over the sound of the explosion. Something then smacked into Harry's left leg. Looking down he noticed a weird looking crystal roughly the size of one of those American footballs he had heard Dudley talk about. Half of it looked like it was an oval with a six point star on the other side and it was a deep crimson in color.
"Give me that crystal you stupid fairy!" demanded Tsukiko who looked like shit as parts of her clothes had been burned away and her body was covered in dirt and some spots of blood from several cuts that littered her frame.
Harry picked up the crystal before smirking. "So this is the Nine Life Star huh, how about you leave without any lasting injuries."
Harry could hear Tsukiko growl at his response. "I will have that crystal." With that she gripped her sword and raced towards Harry. Harry could easily see her word was pulsing with magic meaning that blocking it was out of the question. Quickly ducking under her swing but lost several strands of hair from the close call Harry then delivered a devastating punch to her gut causing her to spit up. "How could I lose to s weak fairy like you?"
Harry pushed her off his fist and backed up never taking his eyes off her. "You lost because you were arrogant and underestimated my abilities. Plus Fairy Tail is not a guild you should ever underestimate. Now I wonder what Gildarts doing?" Right as Harry said that he felt the whole place rumbled. "I think some of your friends ran into him. I hope he didn't kill any this time until we meet again Tsukiko Ito."
With that Harry left the cave to see Gildarts standing in front of another crater littered with several Tartaros members. Gildarts sensed Harry behind him and smiled. "Ah I see you are done with your end. Did you get the artifact?"
"Yeah but only after dealing with a member from Tartaros named Tsukiko Ito. Well my mission is done it was really good meeting you Gildarts." Harry cringed as Gildarts all but crushed his hand while giving him a handshake.
Gildarts laughed as Harry was nursing his injured hand. "Sorry about that. It was good to see you to Harry maybe next time we can have a small spar. Tell Master Makarov I will send a report soon." Harry nodded and walked back to the town hoping to find a doctor to heal his hand before returning back to the guild the next day.
As he returned to guild he over heard that Natsu and Lucy had already left on a mission to Shirostume Town. Shrugging his shoulders he gave Master Makarov the rundown on his own mission and gave Gildarts message to a stunned Master upon hearing Gildarts was in the area. Harry gave the Nine Life Star to Master Makarov for safe keeping telling him that is what Tartaros were after. Before leaving the guild to do some research and relax he wanted to try out one of his theories soon before he left for England.
