Chapter 3
Erza asked Cereza to accompany her in the carriage she was going to be in. Along with her were Gray, Natsu, Lucy, and Happy. "So, you're going to be one of us huh?" Natsu asked. "You're gonna love it! Fairy Tail is awesome and we always have lots of fun together. You should join our team!" Natsu suggested with a large smile on his face. Lucy smiled a little uneasily and said "More like we always get in trouble and just manage to fix the messes we get into ha-ha. But he is right." Cereza felt welcomed and smiled back at her new teammates. "She didn't get her guild mark yet so she's technically not a member. Once she is though, she should decide what team she wants to join." Erza said. The Titania was sitting opposite of Cereza. She smiled with her eyes closed, as if she was thinking, and also had her arms crossed. "Erza is so amazing yet intimidating as fuck, even when she is trying to be nice." Looking to her right, Cereza saw Gray looking out the carriage window. He seemed a little preoccupied on something. "I wonder what he sees out there." Cereza thought. All of sudden, Gray was in tears. "Oh no! What's wrong? I want to comfort him but that would make everyone's attention go to him. I don't want that. So I guess I should just stay quiet and ask him later." With that decision, Cereza looked away and out the window.
As the carriage drew closer to Magnolia, a crowd of people seemed to be rushing towards they're carriage, as if they were waiting for them. "Look! Their back! The number one guild in Fiore is our Fairy Tail!" Excited citizens were cheering and celebrating as they saw the members of Fairy Tail come home. From the carriage, Cereza could see banners, flyers, streamers, and many people congratulating Fairy Tail. "They didn't cheer before. Where was this excitement when they were losing?" Even though she felt a little angry at the citizens, she was still happy to see the faces of the guild smile; even some of them had tears in their eyes. Once they were near the guild, everyone had been shocked to see the sight before them. "On behalf of the citizens of this town," they mayor had said, "We would like to present the Fairy Tail Guild their new home." The once beaten house of Fairy Tail had been restored. It had been magnificently painted and made with modern decor. It was even made larger then it was before. More tears had been shed and more smiles had been shown. It was a rejoicing day for everyone. "We're home guys!" Natsu shouted.
While everyone settled in, Master Makarov asked Cereza to come with him for a moment. She knew that this was about her magic. They went upstairs into a large room that seemed to be private enough. Considering it was a new building, everyone had to get adjusted to the new floor plan. The room was large with a beautiful balcony and view of the town. Inside were lavish tables and chairs. There was also a large bookshelf with lots of books in the back. "Please, have a seat." The master asked. Cereza sat on one of the chairs that were near a desk. "First things first, why do you want to join Fairy Tail especially all that it went through for the past seven years?" Cereza thought for a moment "What am I supposed to say? I haven't answered that question myself. I guess I should just go with the flow like I usually do and just hope that I say something good." "Well, I guess the reason why is because of that person I met some time before 7 years go. He had a tan hood on so I couldn't see his face but I had bumped into him when I ran away from home. He was obviously pissed and I thought he was ready to scold or hit me but he saw me crying. I tried wiping the tears as fast as I can and run so he wouldn't ask but he did. He presumed to ask what was wrong and I was quiet at first. But all I remember saying was that I was a monster and I continued to cry." Cereza paused for a moment and then proceeded with her story. "He asked 'why would I say that?' and I answered saying that I hurt the ones who are innocent. I've tried putting out fires but instead almost burned the house down. I've tried using this magic for good but always failed. People tease me or ignore me thinking I'm going to hurt them. I saved my best friend but the town thought I almost killed them. They almost kicked me out but my parents pleaded them not to. God, I've caused them so much trouble. So I left." Cereza stopped and tried to think what she should say next, thinking that her story was too long and should cut it short. "Go on my dear, what did he say or do? We have all day its fine." "What the hell? Did he just read my mind?" she took a deep breath and continued on. "Well he said that 'The good always seem to be the ones who hurt or suffer. But trust me, when you go bad it is worst because you hurt the ones you care about. So do what your heart tells you and go with your flow, not anyone else's.' and he got up and started taking off. I asked him where he was going and he said that he was saving his fellow fairies."
"It didn't take me long to figure out that he was a Fairy Tail member. So I tried looking for whoever he was. But when the Tenrou incident happened, something in my gut told me he was one of the people who were on that island. At first, I went to the guild a couple times but…I was scared to approach them. I thought they would treat me the same way. Then as time went on, I did my best to help the guild even though I wasn't a member like giving them food, money, clothing, stories, anything. All of it was anonymous so can you not share it with the others please?" Cereza sat there still waiting for Makarov's response. He tugged at his beard a bit and then smiled. "Well we are all back and I'm sure that person will be glad to see you and your guild mark. Well…depending on where you put it." Cereza couldn't hold her excitement. She got up from her chair and hugged the master tightly and spun and danced in joy. Once she realized who she was holding, she put him down and apologized for her behavior. The master did not seem to mind in the slightest and seemed as joyous as her. "Now it is time to apply your guild mark. What color would you like?" Cereza hesitated for a moment and then said silver. "Okay silver it is. And where?" Makarov asked with the guild marking lacrima in his hand. "Hmm. How about right here?" she asked as she pointed to her lower right stomach, which was right next to the marking the Mushoku Tamashī embedded on her. Master Makarov placed the mark on her and was happy for her. She is another child he has to take care of.
Now officially a guild member, Cereza formally thanked him and asked if he needed anything else from her. He thought for a moment and then brought up the subject of her magic. Cereza explained that as a young child, three years or younger, her parents put the Mushoku Tamashī in her crib for safe keeping. But little did they know that it would infuse with her body. Considering that it only laches itself on a being who is pure, her parents assumed that since she is a baby it would be perfect. As time went on, Cereza noticed different types of scales and magic she could use. Once she hit puberty, and done her research, she figured out that she controls all of the Dragon Souls and can use their power once asked upon. Master Makarov then explained that the lacrima laches itself on someone who has the strength to control it. It's a person with great mental and physical capability. Compared to everyone in the world, it is only one person in a span of 500 years. With that new knowledge, Cereza was surprised. "How could someone like me be given this power?
The master then showed a big smile on his face. "Don't worry. You will learn how to control this power with time and will grow in strength. Everyone does. You're no exception. Now, why don't we join everyone else?"
The master and Cereza went downstairs and saw chaos before their eyes. Chairs were flying across the room, wooden cups were being thrown against walls, and everyone was fighting each other. "Looks like things are back to normal." He smiled warily. Cereza couldn't help but smile also at the image before her. With everything they had gone through, they just seemed to put everything aside, as if it never happened. "I wish I could easily forget like they do." As she thought while the images of her parents' death replayed in her mind. She then shook her head a bit and put aside the scene. "I can't think about this now. I'm a member so I should be excited." She looked around and saw Laxus sitting at a small table. The Raijinshu were of course arguing with each other over who knows what. He was pouting and was probably saying everyone were idiots. But then he smirked. "He's so adorable. I wonder why he's smirking?" she thought while looking at the same direction her was. "That's weird. Nothing is there. So why is he smiling?" Since Laxus was still smiling, she still couldn't help but smile back again.
The master saw her looking at his grandson. So he joked around with her and asked if she was enjoying her view. Of course she was flustered but managed to hide it really well. He then offered to show her around the huge abode. She agreed but then remembered that this place is new to him also, so how would he know where to go? "Well then, I guess it will be a learning experience for the both of us." He said as he smiled and led her to other sections of the guild.
After the tour, Cereza was exhausted. "Even after this whole tour, I still don't know where the hell my room is. Why is it up here anyway? Isn't this the S-Class floor?" She searched for a while until finally she saw a room. She opened the doorknob and was shocked to see the man sleeping in the bed. In a split second, she concluded that this was not her room. She heard the man murmur and moaned something in his sleep. "Do you mind shutting the door?" The man then got up, revealing his stunning bare chest. She had stepped into the lightening mages room. "Sorry. I thought…I'll just…Sorry." In a hurry she stepped out and shut the door behind her. She also caught her breath as she leaned against the door. When she was stable enough to walk, she walked a little further and in the corner, she found her room. She stepped inside and started to strip off her clothing. "Why do I always to make a fool of myself when I am around him? He probably thinks I'm an idiot." She put her jacket on the table stand. Then she sat on the bed to pick off her boots. "I should just forget about him." And with that conclusion, she took off her shirt and pants, only leaving her undergarments, and then went to sleep.
Shadows were around and they were encircling around her. The moans of people were the only thing that she could hear. "You did this to us. You couldn't save us. Now we are dead. Now you must DIE!" The corpses of the dead were now charging at her. She tried running but she couldn't, as if she was moving in slow motion. The dead were coming so she tried using her magic but unfortunately, it didn't work. "Come on! Please do not fail me now, I need you." But still her magic would not comply with her plea. The dead were now on top of her, ripping at anything they could touch. In the crowd, she could see that the only people clawing at her were the three people she couldn't save that day. "We were crushed. You wanted us DEAD! Now you will die with us." Cereza tried fighting back but they were too strong. "No! Of course not." But they didn't listen. All they did was rip at skin, flesh, muscle, tissue, and, organs. "Please, help. Laxus please, I need you." While in his bed, Laxus was stirred as he heard something that he couldn't believe. He heard Cereza's cry for help. It was faint but he knew what he heard. Without thinking, he got up and went towards the sounds of her cries. He opened her door and saw the sleeping girl.
I Love Each And Every One Of You!
