So here's my kinda shitty chapter 2. I'll make sure chapter 3 is better I promise.


7 years ago (3rd person pov)

"Please someone! You have to help her!" A 16-year old male stood in the door opening, a girl in his arms. "Please! Please, I'll do anything, just help my sister.." His pleas were heard by the sky dragon slayer who rushed to his side, quickly starting her healing magic. The girl in the boy's arms was heavily injured and was emitting sparks. Blood, leaking from several wounds and running down the boy's jeans.

"B-Bring her inside! On the bar! I-I'll see what I can do! A-And you too, you're bleeding too, sir!" The boy limped inside, as he approached the bar a worried Mirajane quickly shoved all the mugs off the counter. The men moved from their stools. The girl was placed on the counter, she wasn't conscious but she was definitely breathing. She was groaning and twitching and lightning never stopped surrounding her, as if trying to control her.

"I need you to quickly explain what happened." Mirajane said from behind the counter as she stared at the boy. "…She…She exploded…I don't know either but, I didn't know she was a mage until now…" The boy said as she took a seat and held his bleeding arm, staring at his little sister with a pained look. "Please save her…"

From the back of the guild, a young, red-haired girl came. She put her tiny arms next to those of Wendy's and she had this determined look on her face. The teenage boy looked at her and then at Mira who didn't seem to move. "She's playing soothing music for her. It usually helps calm the mind.." came from behind the bar. "Sound music…it's pretty rare, isn't it?" The boy replied.

"So are boys who walk in with bleeding girls."


Day after Candy's nightmare (Blair's pov)

"She's finally sleeping…" I said as my back pressed against the wall, my arms folded. "This never happened before has it? Blair, has Candy ever been like this on a mission?" I shook my head, removing myself from the wall and walking towards the window as I felt Wendy's eyes follow me.

"She's just a very excited girl who likes music, sweets and well…excitement. Nothing like this has ever happened before…not since that day. I thought you knew that, Wendy." I turned to look at her again, I unconsciously glared at her yet, she didn't seem to mind it.

"Yeah. After all, I'm the one who wiped her memory." She rubbed the back of her head, she seemed to be really sorry and conflicted with herself. "What else could you have done..? It's not everyday that…no, it's not something we should discuss here. I have things to do anyway, take care of her for me."

"No problem."


Day of the festival, present (Candy's pov)

"Blair! Fight me!" I said as I came running into the guild, leaving behind a cloud of dust as I stopped next to her bar stool. She rolled her eyes before taking another sip from her drink. "Not now. Don't you have to prepare things for the festival?" I growled lowly which was only met with another roll of the eyes.

"In an hour, behind the guild. Until them, entertain yourself, I'm sure Momo needs some help with the music and stereo's, why don't you help her out?" With a heavy sigh, I left her and went to look for the previously mentioned girl. She wasn't one to ask for help, from anyone. Closed-off yet she had this appearance that just screamed attention. Fierce red hair and she's quite tall.

There she is, in the corner, talking with what seems to be…Syril? The male with hair just as red as hers. They could've been siblings. That's what everyone in the guild said to be honest. They seemed to be doing just fine, why would she need my help anyway or him for that matter.

So on a whim I decided to forget about them and move outside where I found another one of my friends. How convenient. Then again everyone was preparing for the parade. "Yukari! How's it going?" She didn't even as much as look up at me. With her nose in that damn book again. "Oi? Oi Yukari?" I started waving my hand in front of her face in desperation.

"What do you want, Candy? Shouldn't you be resting after you went lights out yesterday?" Why was everyone trying to pick a fight with me. That or I get offended quickly, probably the latter. "Aren't you supposed to be with Kasumi? Or inside at least?" She shrugged before flipping over a page in her book. "She'll come back soon, she said she was meeting someone in town."

"Oh…" She returned to her book and every time I tried to get back to her she would glare daggers at me. "Scary~" I teased as I made my way back inside of the guild. Nobody needed help, nobody that could stand me at least. Something inside me told me to go look for Pamela but I had no idea where she could've gone at this point.


Pamela Pov

The train ride was long, way too long but I hadn't expected any less. My home town was at the edge of the country, I simply had to be patient. I couldn't thank Kasumi enough. That one tip about them, about my parents. They were alive. Even after all these years, after all these damn years…they were alive. I hadn't even noticed. I hadn't even checked.

I had fallen asleep and the man seated across from me, shook me awake when we arrived at Elderwood. The town that had been destroyed merely 5 years ago yet now…now it looked more like paradise. The people were happy, music was playing and the town was radiant. Flowers, happily decorated buildings and laughing. Everything was so happy yet…this wasn't my home.

These weren't the people that lived her before. These weren't the people that I grew up with. This was a town for tourists and business men…this wasn't my home.

Without a word, I turned back to the station. If my parents had any intention to see me they would have long ago. It's clear to me that even they've been brainwashed by this new town. I didn't need it. I didn't need any of it. My home was with Fairy Tail.


Candy's pov

"The hour is over! Come on already Blair!" I was at her stool again. Don't ask me how time went by so quickly, not even I know. She put her drink down and sighed loudly before getting up, her red eyes rolling again. She did love to roll her eyes didn't she?

I followed her outside, and watched her stretch her arms. I was getting pumped, lightning running through my veins much like the day before. This felt like the old days. The days where we would fight like little kids, no weapons involved. But then, when we were finished, we would ask if the other was okay. She's my best friend and rival at the same time and it'll always stay like that.

She suddenly turned on her heel and threw one of those throwing knives at me. I was able to react but even at my speed, she had caught me off-guard. It grazed my face, leaving a scratch across my left cheek that was certainly going to sting later.

I took this at my chance, balancing myself on my heel, I did a backwards somersault to land firmly on my feet again. Yet, as I charged forward and reached her, she had already re-equipped a katana that my fists certainly weren't gonna break. I knelt and swung my leg forward in an attempt to sweep her off her feet, quite literally.


Blair pov

How bothersome, fast like lightning. But that wasn't going to stop me. I took the opportunity to re-equip more throwing knives as I fell onto my back, this certainly prevented that child from landing a combo attack on me. Throwing a knife at her once more, she decided it would be better to retreat. A moment where we could both catch our breath. Even if she was used to moving fast, I certainly wasn't.

Changing my knives for a quiver and a bow, I aimed a shot at her. Fire arrows, if I was lucky she would absorb some of that fire and go knock-out. I pulled back the line and launched the arrow towards her, which she, of course countered with a simple lightning bolt. Counter after counter, we continued our endless fight. Thorn shirts, thorn pants, that's always how it ended. But not today.

As she was about to charge at me for the eighth time, A loud explosion could be heard in the distance which caught our attention. We both stopped fighting, knowing that right now wasn't the time for off-guard attacks.

"What was that..?" She said in a whisper, supposedly to herself. "Sounds like a fight or something. You know anyone that would pick a fight at this time?" She went silent for a little, a hand resting on her chin, she was lost in thought. It took several seconds for her to reply to me. "No but, I got a fair idea."

She had a hold of my hand within a second and pulled me forward, how nauseating. She was pulling me at lightning speed towards that explosion. Always getting herself in trouble. But that's why I stuck with her. To stop her from 'exploding' like she had done many years ago. God she looked awful on that counter.

Team lightning arrow. 'Speedy' was her nickname. The name you would give to your pet at age 10. The perfect name for an overexcited 16-year old. The perfect name for my best friend.


OH GOD THIS CHAPTER IS TERRIBLE. (I had a writer block during the middle okay I had no idea how to make this chapter longer so I did some character introductions. Also, if you're a detective you might know the cause of the explosion B) But that's only if you're a detective. Oh and before I go.
