New Hudson Story! Also looking for people to collab with.
(Fairy Tail)
Hudson came back to the guild with Malice. Team Natsu was standing in front of the request board. They joined them.
"What job should we take?" asked Natsu.
"A good job that involves me cracking some heads." said Grey.
"I need to pay this months rent so let's take one that pays a lot." said Lucy.
"Aye!" shouted Happy.
"Well, let's see "Find the Serpant Ring sounds good. Pays a lot too." said Malice as she picked the job from the request board.
"Alright, let's do it then! The location says Gusgo. About 2 hours from here on train. Let's get going." said Grey as they left the guild.
(2 hours on train later)
Hudson and Team Natsu stepped foot in Gusgo. The town was small with only 130 residents and surrounded by forests. Their only source of income was their seaport that was famous for being the easiest to reach port.
"Well, it says the ring was lost in the forest behind the large boulder." said Natsu as they kept walking.
"Everyone, split up. Search every corner for the ring." said Erza as the group ran in all directions.
Hudson ended up going towards a huge oak tree.
"Serpant ring? Sounds cool. I wonder where dad is..." said Hudson to himself.
Hudson was looking for it when he heard the branch snap. Hudson turned slightly. He saw 4 mages and a girl that could have been his sister. She also had the same eyes as him.
"What do you want? I'm looking for a Serpant Ring." said Hudson as he turned back around to look.
"Serpant Ring? Oh, this?" said the girl as she held the ring up.
Hudson turned to look at it. It was a beautiful ring, made entirely with sapphires. The entire ring was carved from sapphire with 2 snakes coiling around each other.
"Yeah, that's the ring I'm looking for." he said.
"Then come with us." said the girl cooly.
"No way. My moms going to worry about me." said Hudson.
He looked towards the mages behind the girl. They wore red robes and their hoods were pulled low over their faces. Looked tough.
"Give me the ring and I will split the money with you." said Hudson.
"No. Hudson, come with us." said the girl as she stepped forward.
The girl was a bit younger but how did she know Hudson's name?
"How do you know my name." demanded Hudson.
"Easy. I'm your sister, Sandra. I'm the heir to the throne at the Fog Islands." she said easily.
"Your kidding. Now I'm really not going with you guys." said Hudson.
"Look, I'm not going to play games with you. Mother wants you to join her court. If you don't cooperate, I'll have to take you by force." she said as the mages stepped forward.
"Try me." said Hudson confidently.
One of the mages stepped forward and sent fire blasting toward him. The fire swirled around Hudson and shot back at the Mage. It hit him squarely and the Mage was sent flying back, flaming. The other 3 mages didn't seem so excited to fight anymore.
"So that's your power. Your already able to reflect magic..." whispered Sandra.
"Yeah, come on! Who's next!" shouted Hudson.
Another Mage came forward with a sword. It was a heavy sword with a blade made of silver. He swung and missed. Hudson was all over him. Hudson kicked the mages hand and made him drop the sword. Then, he kicked him in the knees and gave him a double decker punch into the chin as the Mage dropped to his knees. Throughout the entire fight, Sandra seemed to be amazed.
"Your a warrior too?" she shouted.
"Yeah! My dad taught me! I have a new family now! One that doesn't abandon me!" shouted Hudson as he reflected the 2 other mage's attacks.
Soon, it was only Sandra and Hudson left. Hudson stood, glaring at her.
"How comenyour already V2?" asked Sandra.
"Huh? V2?" asked Hudson.
"Didn't your new mother tell you the way mages level up in personal power?" asked Sandra.
"No, she didn't." glared Hudson.
"Well, usually mages don't rank up to V2 until they become a B-Class Mage. However, your just 8, a year older than me and your already V2. Probably because Mirror mages rank up faster than normal mages. Pretty soon, you'll be V3." said Sandra.
"Whatever. Just stay away from my friends." said Hudson.
"Fine, I can see that it's useless to try to convince you to join us. Here, take the Serpant Ring. It's yours. It's a gift from mother in case you didn't want to join us. Also, beware of Cardiac. He is hunting you and will do anything it takes to get you." said Sandra.
Suddenly there was the sound of Team Natsu running towards Hudson. Sandra quickly teleported all the fallen mages away. Team Natsu crashed through the forest to find Hudson, standing alone, with the Seroant Ring.
"Hey! You found it!" said Malice.
"We also found this weird suitcase of money in the forest. We figured it was the person who put that job up." said Lucy.
"Anybody want to get dinner at Lucy's house?" asked Natsu.
"Aye!" shouted Happy.
"I think I third that." said Grey.
"I fourth it." said Erza.
"Fifth!" shouted Wendy.
"Just keep me away from the Hudson-boy." said Charle.
"Why my house always?" shouted Lucy.
"Don't worry, I'll help cook." said Erza.
Hudson just looked at Team Natsu, all happy and smiling. Hudson knew that he would never be truly happy until he killed Cardiac and avenged his true father. For now, protecting his mother was his mission. He would give his life to save her.
