~Light~ Remember we don't own Fairy Tail just the OCs! Don't forget to R&R!
"You are a monster! Do you understand you worthless thing?" A woman with bunny ears screamed at a small girl with long silver white hair as she curled into a ball after being hit multiple times by said woman. "I regret creating you!" The woman continued while throwing objects at the crying girl.
"Sowwy! Sowwy!" The small girl cried as a woman with avian features watched with a blank look before sighing in disgust. Moving with deliberate movements the woman stepped forward and placed a clawed hand on the bunny eared woman silencing her on contact.
"Shut up," the avian woman said blandly but the child continued to chant the single word except now in a much quieter whisper instead of a scream. "I said shut up!" The demon yelled suddenly closing the gap between the child and herself and kicking it hard enough that she went flying into a wall hard enough that she slumped to the floor in silence, not moving.
"Lamy, you have summoned me to show your failure?" The demon asked making the other woman cower and shake in fear as she tried to string together an excuse only to fall dead at the avian's feet. The demon then turned and stared at the small toddler as she sat up and looked at her with strange big blue gold eyes that were filled with pain.
"You'll die anyway," the demon told the child as tears ran down her dirty face and she rubbed her arm against her face. The demon easily lifted the girl up by the back of the pillowcase she wore and vanished before appearing in the middle of a forest. "Die," the demon told the girl before throwing her lazily away from her and vanishing again.
"Sowwy! Sowwy!" The girl screamed scrambling over to the spot the woman had stood before vanishing and frantically screaming the single word over and over with tears and snot running down her small thin face. After awhile she grew hoarse and to tired to move so she curled up on the spot, whimpering as the darkness of night curled around her and the sound of wolves howling filled the night.
...
I snapped my eyes open fear making everything snap into place as I realized I was holding someone's wrist. I looked up into a pair of strange blue eyes before letting go with a jerk and moving to back away.
"It's alright," the woman said as I realized Lisanna and Elfman were still there and it had all been a dream. I shook my head and stood up watching the group carefully as the newcomer stood up also and continued to watch me. "My name's Mirajane from Fairy Tail," she told me in a calm tone as I stepped away, turning away from them as I did.
"I don't care now leave me alone." I said without looking at them as I tried to walk away but for some reason Mirajane's words stopped me.
"It's like looking in a mirror," she said making me look back to see her watching me with a look of awe and curiosity. "Who are you?" She asked me only to receive an answer from Lisanna.
"That's not what I meant," she said and began walking over to me. My mind was telling me to move but for some reason I didn't want to, instead all I wanted was to get closer to this Mirajane. "You are quiet a mystery Namina. Want to come with us?" Mirajane said with a smile that made her eyes close in genuine happiness.
"Why? I like being on my own." I snapped at her but she seemed unaffected because she took my hand and began leading me back over to the other two who were watching us with fascination in their eyes.
"Everyone likes being alone, but no one can stand it. Besides we heard you scream earlier and if that's anything to go by you don't need to be alone." She told me as she continued to drag me along with her, completely oblivious to the many times I tried to yank my hand out of hers.
...
"So who do you think she is?" Lisanna asked her brother as they watched their older sister drag the cloaked girl to the guild.
"I don't know but I'm surprised our sister's arm hasn't come off." Elfman said with a low laugh that was mimicked by his sister as they both watched Namina try again to pull her hand away from Mira's. They were curious about the girl and they hadn't noticed until Mira had said something how similar the girl was to her. Yes the eye color and the silver parts of her hair was different but besides that the girl was nearly an exact replica of Mira. An hour later they were back at the guild and it seemed their small companion had already been there.
"Nee-chan!" Lee, one of the younger members, yelled when he caught sight of the girl. He immediately charged at her and tackled her to the ground along with several other young members. "Where have you been?" Lee asked but his voice was quickly overlapped by many others asking similar questions.
"Why did you run off?" "We looked everywhere for you!" "Where did you go?" The voices of several teenagers asked the small girl in their grasp as she looked at them with guarded eyes and a rigid body.
"Break it up, all of you." Mira said with a laugh as her sibling separated to go to their own small groups. "Give her some room to breath," Mira continued as the group stepped back and looked around sheepishly.
"It's time to keep your promise, Nee-chan!" Lee exclaimed loudly before dragging the surprised girl out of the guild and into the courtyard, followed closely by all the children of the guild minus a few toddlers. Mira took the chance to go find the Master, already slightly worried about Namina but knowing somehow she would be fine.
...
"Fight me!" Lee yelled at me once we stood outside in the courtyard as the sun began to set. I looked at him blankly before he rolled his eyes and smiled. "You said the next time we meet up I'd be able to beat you in a fight. So let me prove it!" Lee explained before getting into a fighting stance. I stood there not really wanting to fight him as the kids surrounded us in a sort of ring.
"I'll be the referee! First one to drop by the time the sun sets completely is the loser." The male Dragneel said before a shirtless boy jumped on his back, forcing him to the ground.
"No way Lemon Boy! I'm referee!" Kade yelled before being knocked off the boy as he rolled over and began fighting him.
"Idiots." Layla said rolling her eyes as she stepped forward and looked at us both. "I'll referee now are you ready?" She asked raising her arms up before dropping them both signaling the start of the fight. I looked over at Lee as he charged and leaned to the side just as he flew past me. Without a word I propped my foot out and tripped him before elbowing his back, sending him crashing to the ground. I heard the group 'ooh' loudly as I began walking away only to be hit from behind by a well placed punch in my lower back. I grunted before spinning around and kicking upward, clipping Lee's head hard enough to send him to the ground again where he immediately kicked out at my legs forcing me to jump up to avoid them.
Using the chance he had he immediately threw a bright ball of light into my face blinding me effectively before I fell back on the ground. I instinctively began blinking my eyes trying to get them to adjust faster only to receive a punch in one of them. Feeling another shot coming at me I let my reflexes take over and grabbed the fist redirecting it to cause Lee to over swing and stumble past me. When I felt his body passing me I kicked upward, connecting with his gut and sending him skidding across the ground with an 'oof' sound. Taking my chance I kneeled down on one knee and placed both my hands, palms pressed flat, against the ground and closed my eyes. After a second I felt a slight vibration that alerted me of someone approaching quickly before catching the sound of heavy breathing. Relying solely on the direction the sound had come from I swung out with my arm wrapping around someone's middle before standing up and stepping on what felt like the bend in there legs forcing them to the ground. As they fell I let go and grabbed an arm pulling back and holding it above them as they hit the ground with a loud 'omf' and heavy breathing.
"Holy cow!" "Did you see that?" I heard whispers echo from all directions as I took deep breaths, trying to calm my racing heart as I opened my eyes and rubbed them.
"Uh Lee do you admit defeat?" Layla asked in a stunned voice as my vision returned and I was able to see the sun had reached midway through setting. I looked down to see Lee pinned beneath me slapping the ground as fast as he could making me realize he did infact admit defeat. Letting go I stood up and brushed off my shorts before holding out a hand for him noting how he smiled through a bruised jaw.
"You win...again." He told me before laughing loudly causing some people to cheer while others groaned and walked over to a girl with wavy brown hair and small triangles beneath her eyes holding a drink in one hand as she grinned wildly as she wrote things down and passed small bags to people who walked over to her.
"That was impressive, how did you fight after Lee hit you with that light?" Igneel asked from beneath Titan, who had somehow gotten dragged into the fight with Kade and him. I shrugged at him before moving to walk away just as the group went silent and Mirajane walked over to us with an old man and another man with spiky blond hair and a scar on his face following closely behind.
"Namina, come with me." The old man said calmly while looking at me with a serious face. I looked at the old man before me faintly remembering him before swallowing my emotions and following him to an area behind the guild. Before I realized it, I was completely alone with the old man and he had spun around to glare at me. "You deliberately disobeyed me, Namina! I told you to come back the next day, not a year from then!" The old man yelled suddenly towering over me. I stared at him with wide eyes as fear made me shake.
"You left your brother here and vanished! Then when you return you fight him!" The old man raged at me making my own anger rise up.
"I gave him a choice! If he had wanted to come with me he could have you old man! I made a deal with him too! That why we were fighting so don't you dare get mad at me!" I yelled back at him as he shrunk back down to his original size and watched me quietly as I finished yelling.
"Alright, fair enough. Now then you will be staying at girls dorm for the time being and I expect to see you here bright and early tomorrow morning no excuses." He told me calmly making my head spin at the sudden turn of events.
"I'm not joining your guild." I spat at him still angry as he looked at me with a raised brow.
"Did I mention anything about joining?" He asked me making me shake my head before he walked past me nonchalantly. "Now like I said, bright and early!" He yelled leaving me alone behind the guild more confused than before. After awhile I finally walked back around the guild just in time to see Lee leaving with a tall teenage boy with straight short dark colored hair wearing an opened jacket and MC hammer pants with slip on shoes and a sash tied around his waist.
"Nee-chan!" Lee yelled when he saw me, running over to me just as a vaguely familiar girl with long blue hair ran over to the boy, who blushed wildly. "Where are you going?" Lee asked me, distracting me from the couple.
"That old man wants me to go to some dorm then come back here in the morning." I told Lee as his smile grew even bigger then before. Twenty minutes later I was trying to figure out how Lee had paired me with Wendy, who was showing me around the dorm, and how he had convinced me to come back the next day instead of leaving sometime during the night.
"The Master said you could have this room, my room is the last one on the left down the hall." Wendy told me, opening the door to reveal a bare room with a folded mattress sitting on a simple full size bed and a small chest resting at the foot of the bed while a large window with a seat in front of it allowed moonlight to drift into the room. "There should be bedding and such in the chest," Wendy said before leaving me alone for the night. Without a word I closed the door and switched on the light noticing a small dresser with a mirror against the far wall near the window holding a lamp. Sighing I removed my cloak and began working on setting up the bed and putting a curtain on the window making the small room a bit more livable.
An hour later I had discovered a few sets of abandoned clothes of various sizes and a sewing kit. I sat cross legged in the middle of the bed fixing the tears in the back of the cloak my mind going over the day while I absently stitched the material back together. After a while I felt my eyes closing and sighed, I needed to sleep. Being careful to put the needle and thread back in their place I turned off the light and curled up on the bed, pulling the cloak around me as I drifted off to sleep.
