AN: Alright people. update bomb is dropping. Edward the Pure, I am clear for dropping the package do I have the go. Of course I do, Edward, don't worry, just let them have it. Now that the little late night psychotic rampage from last night is done, let's get a move on on this chapter. And here, Izaya's magic comes into light and is explained in the deepest way I can manage. Forward, charge!

Chapter 5

*Flashback, 1 year ago*

I wake up in my bed. It's close to getting to small for me. I'll have to bring that up with my parents, and hope they know where I can get a new mattress and frame. I slowly get up, my leg hurting from yesterday, damn coconut. (Yes, a coconut. You got a problem with it?) I really hate Mondays.

I walk downstairs, hoping to find my parents down there. As soon as I reach the bottom of the stairs, I smell iron. The smell of dried blood I had learned to know the smell of over these 10 years. I walk into the living room, and nearly pass out from the amount of cruelty put in here.

Imagine the scariest movie you had ever seen. Now imagine the most gruesome scene of that movie and multiply it be one thousand. That's how I would have to rate this scene before me. There wasn't a speck of paint on the walls because of the amount of blood there was, the furniture was drenched in it all over, my parents were in the center, laying down dead. I approach them slowly. As I approach, I can barely recognize them because of how bloody and beat up their faces are. Their cut open and their organs, vitals and all others, strewn about the room, and all 10 fingers and toes have been ripped off, slowly and painfully. They have their hands on top of each others.

I stop when I get close enough to kneel by them. On their foreheads is carved one word: Polganic. They must have done this to them. I am going to do something to get back at them if it's the last thing I do. I move their hands, setting them near each other. I see a ring in my mom's hand. It was her wedding ring. Tears fall down my face, dropping down and impacting on the floor. I begin to cry, screaming at nothing. My parents dead, there is nothing left for me. Only a feel for revenge.

When I grab the ring, it glows and releases two flashes of light. The first one creating someone who resembled my dad, wearing the Purgatory armor but with bat like wings and a black katana without a guard. The other resembled my mom, but with different facial features (which I would relate to Erza's face later on). She wore the top half of the Heaven's Wheel armor and a skirt that reached her mid thigh. I stare at them, wondering who they are.

"Hello Izaya," the man says, giving me a warm smile. I look at him, wondering who they are. "So you're Shusuke's son. No wonder he asked us to look after you." He was on the verge of giving a hearty laugh, had he not been hit on the back of the head with an armored hand, belonging to the woman.

"Who…Who are you two?" I ask, hoping they'll answer. The woman gives me a kind smile, like she was expecting this.

"We are known as Titan," she points at the man, "and Titania," she points to herself. "We are warriors known as Titans. Because you can summon us, that makes you a Titan mage." She looks like she's about to go into a long explanation, but is cut off when the man, whose name was apparently Titan, stood up and cut in.

"Basically Titan magic combines Celestial Spirit magic and Exquiping magic. You summon Titans using amulets, only focusing on the name of the Titan. You can turn them into weapons by saying their name and the saying 'Armament.' Each Titan becomes a different weapon, since no two are the same." He says, giving me a glimpse at my magic.

Titania quickly cut in, giving more of an explanation. "You can't really call them out when you first get them though. You have to wait over a certain amount of time for them to Bond with you. Bonding allows the 2 of you two work as a team, and will increase the power of the Titan until you're as close as can be. We only came out because it was your parents last wish. They wanted us to protect you." She said, summoning forth a katana, kneeling before me, sword placed in front of her. Titan did the same, but it wasn't as fluent since his armor was kind of rickety.

Titan spoke up, "We will serve you and protect you at all costs, Lord Izaya. As decreed by Lord Shusuke and Lady Akari." And with that the two of them left.

*End flashback*

I woke up suddenly awake. That dream, I really hate it when something like that happens. I look and see that Natsu is passed out from motion sickness, Erza is sleeping on top of Mira, and Mira is smiling, oddly, and Aoi is awake staring out the window. She notices I'm awake, but doesn't move from her position. "So, have a bad dream I'm guessing," she says, trying to make conversation.

"Yeah, but more of a memory then a dream," I reply. I look at her curiously, unable to hold back myself. "So, where do you hale from Aoi?" She looks shocked, but doesn't answer. "Got it, don't want to talk about it. I can understand it, especially to someone you're still trying to tell if you can trust or not." She looks at me, surprised I could tell. "It's a good characteristic. Reminds me of myself a bit. Though you actually give it more actuality, like it's another person in you." I close my eyes, waiting for a reply. None comes. I continue. "But it can cut you off from everyone. It's a curse, a way of life, and a blessing. Something that is a boundary and a front door. You don't have to talk to me if you don't want to." I pull out a sucker, and hand it to her. She takes it, looking at me cautiously. She puts it in her mouth, and keeps it there. "All I'm asking for is a little trust until the mission is finished."

I open my eyes again, and watch the scenery pass by. The rest of the trip passes in silence. Natsu woke up for a second a few times, but only to nearly gag on the floor. Erza begins mumbling something, but I can barely make it out. The same for Mira, but I think the two were saying the others names, which I found weird. Maybe they did want to be friends deep down.

We arrived at the town, and Natsu jumped off the train, yelling and screaming about how he would never get on another train again as long as he lived. Erza was still asleep, so I had to carry her on my back as we walked to the house of the man who sent the request. He was quite vague, now that I think about it. He had only said that something was happening and people were disappearing over night. He didn't say what he wanted us to do about it, even though it was obvious, but then again, I've had some missions where it was worded that the requestor wanted me to kill something when he actually wanted me to talk to it and try to get it to go away peacefully. And every time they were either Succubae, Sirens, or Golems.

When we got to the house, a man brushed against me. I looked back at him, but could barely make anything out. I could tell he wore a navy blue cloak and had light brown hair. A white cape attached to the left shoulder only. The cloak went down to his feet but he wore a short pair of white shorts. He had a pair of dusty sneakers on. He was dark skinned. I continue to move forward after Aoi gets my attention back, the sucker still in her mouth.

I knocked on the door, waiting for a reply. After a moment of silence, a woman in her twenties opened the door. She had pure gold colored hair, semi-pale skin, and wore a robe. Obviously something had been interrupted. What I don't know and don't want to know. She sees us, and looks at me quizzically. "We're here for the job you requested." I hand her the piece of paper with our mission on it. She looks it over, and invites us in.

"So," she says almost quietly, as if she would wake up a monster if she spoke any louder, "you must be Fairy Tail then." She looks at the 5 of us, Erza just waking up. "Good, I was worried that no one would accept my request because of how vague it is." She stops, waiting for something. I decide to say something to fill the silence.

"You were vague about what it is you want us to do, but never mind that. What is it you want us to do?" I ask, hoping that she can give it some form of clarity. She looks at the kids, looking like it shouldn't be said in front of them. "Don't worry, they've actually been on missions like this for years, and though they're young, they're a lot more knowledgeable then they seem." She nods, looking at me disapprovingly at me.

"I want you to take down a creature that's been taking the people of this town. We know that the women and children are found naked and mutilated (she shifts around uncomfortably) at the entrance of a cave outside the village, and that whatever it is leaves men at the front of the village, wrinkled and decayed," she says, trying to be as best help as she can. I turn towards Aoi and she understands what it is. "If there is anything else I can do for you." She leaves the sentence dangling in the air.

"Thanks, we promise to get rid of it. Come on guys, let's get us a monster." I walk out the front door, everyone following me in a single file. "Well, we better do something about the monster tonight. Succubae don't necessarily treat towns who try to get mages to destroy them kindly," I add when we are about 5 meters from our hotel. I've been in Fairy Tail for a year and every request I take, the likelihood of it being a succubus is always very high.

"I hate succubae."

AN: Sorry if you think that choosing a succubus for a monster to get rid of was not very smart, but you can blame Abe Lincoln for it being the monster. I flipped a coin, tail succubus, heads golem. Alright, well now that another chapter is up here, let's have a few reviews for this chapter. I really hope that you like it. I'm really not sure how I did. But that's why I have you all to tell me how I'm doing. I really hate it when I'm left in the dark on how I do, so please review and let me know how I did. Plus, I just love reading peoples reviews anyway. So, now that we have our first official job written down, I will update and give you all a good part of the mission together. So, until then, ciao.
