Chapter 3
6 Years Later
Clearing in the middle of the Forest from Ch 2, July 7, Year X777 (The Fated Day)
A pair of icy blue eyes opened, having felt sunlight. They belong to a now 10-year-old Roxas. As he stands up, we see the changes: His height is 4 feet 4 inches, his hair, in the front, is spiky and windswept (to the right) while in the back, it is 3 quarters of the way down to the back of his neck. He still wears his short-sleeved grey chainmail shirt (which is made of Arcadia's own scales and enchanted to adjust to his size as he grows.) and his grey gauntlet on his right arm (it has the same enchantment as his chainmail/dragon scale shirt) but he now has a black-and-white-checker-patterned sleeveless vest over his shirt. He also has beige khaki knee-length shorts, a jagged, dragon tear necklace (Arcadia says dragon tears become diamonds that protect from things like Zeref's Death Magic) and a pair of platinum/silver colored, steel-toed boots.
He instantly smells that he and Wendy are alone. He turns to his left, seeing her. Roxas: 'She looks so peaceful... And Pretty... Where did THAT come from?!' Shaking his head, he shakes her gently, saying: "Wake up, something's wrong." She opened her eyes, and stood up in barely a second.
As for Wendy, she is now 4 feet tall, with hair stopping at mid-back, but in the front there are two bangs on either side of her face, framing it, stopping at her chin. She wears azure sandals with white red socks, green knee-length shorts, and a navy tank top, leaving her shoulders and midriff exposed. Also, she wears dragon tear earrings, a gift from Grandeena (w/ the same magic as Roxas' necklace.).
She smells the same thing as Roxas. They search the whole forest, and 1 hour later, meet up, to find their dragons gone. Wendy, saddened, starts sobbing, and Roxas embraces her, while shedding his own, silent tears. Shortly, they resolve to become great 3rd Gen. Dragonslayers. So, they head north, after packing out fits the same as they wear now.
3 Days Later
A Canyon, 100 Miles North of The Forest, July 10, Same Year
Roxas & Wendy spot a tree near the canyon, 10" to their left, it's a 10" tall apple tree. They inhale and - "Twilight/Sky Dragon's ROAR! - they each unleash a roar (Roxas' is Platinum/Silver, Wendy's is Beige-Green) that knocks the apples down. They catch the fruit, only to hear clapping.
They look in front of them, 10 feet away are two boys. One is a spiky blonde (think Super Vegeta's (from DBZ) hair style, but shorter by half), with blue eyes, wearing a red sleeveless shirt, blue jeans, and gold shoes, the other wearing the same clothes, but in black and brown. He has messy black hair (not spiky) black eyes. They both have pale skin like Roxas and Wendy, and both are Roxas' height. They are both a year or 2 older then our Hero & Heroine.
The blonde says: "So you are Dragonslayers as well, 3rd Gen if my nose is right (AN: Dragonslayers can Identify Generation by Smell, in my stories.) My name is Sting, and the guy with me is Rogue. We are both 3rd Gen as well." Rogue: "I'm the shadow Dragonslayer, and Sting is the White Dragonslayer." Roxas: " Cool, I'm Roxas Cromwell the Twilight Dragonslayer, Son of Arcadia, my Dragon. And this is Wendy Marvell, the Sky Dragonslayer, daughter of Grandeena. We were told the names and elements of the other living dragons. So Sting's is Weisslogia, and your dragon, Rogue, must be Skiadrum." Wendy: "Did your dragons disappear on July 7 three days ago as well?"
Sting & Rogue: "No, we decided to kill them, and the power we used was incredible!" Roxas & Wendy were shocked, outraged, and appalled at that. Roxas & Wendy yelled: "You killed them, how could you do something so Heartless, they were your parents!" Sting: "That is what our magic is meant for." Rogue: "Come with us, and we shall be the strongest of any Dragonslayers, pas present or future." Roxas & Wendy: "No! We refuse to work with Monsters like YOU!" Sting & Rogue: " So be it." They leave.
Roxas: "I know, we'll join a Guild, get stronger, and show those 2 how weak and wrong they are!" Wendy: "Yeah, let's go... Where will we find a Guild?" Roxas: "No clue." They eat their apples, and continue north.
2 Days Later
Forest Outside An as-of-yet-named town, July 12, same year
Our Heroes find themselves lost, and sit under a tree. Roxas: "Where will we find a town with a Guild?!" Blue-Haired boy w/ red tattoo over his right eye: " Just go north, if you do you will find Magnolia Town, and at it's northernmost edge, the Fairy Tail Guild." They see the aforementioned boy, carrying a magic staff (Seen when Wendy meets him in a flashback in the anime.) pointing north. He disappears in a flash, and Roxas & Wendy, too shocked to speak, follow his directions.
End Ch 3
