Chapter 11: Three Demons Part 1

Year: X778 March

Location: Fairy Tail Guild.

Naruto had recently been given an A rank along side Cana. Both of them were so happy that they were the first of the young generation of Fairy Tail to reach it. Laxus on the other hand was furious with his grandfather for not having an S Class Promotion trail last December. Gildarts was away on a request in the western tip of Fiore on an S class request. In order to stop Laxus destroying something out of rage he was dragged along on the request with so he could use the rage for some more productive. That Dark Guild was never going to know what hit them. Erza still wasn't talking to Naruto and it was really starting to annoy him. He tried to confront her about it and asked why she had a disliking towards him but she just said 'You remind me of someone from my past who hurt me.' It pissed Naruto off that she say something like that weither it was true or not. The duo known as Natsu and Gray would challenge Naruto for a fight almost every day. They never won. They didn't even bother against Erza as much but the odd time here and then both would try their luck. Every time they wished they hadn't.

The guild in the last few months had gained five new members two boys called Jet and Droy and three Strauss family members Mirajane, Elfman and Lisanna. Four of the new members quickly got used to life in Fairy Tail but Mirajane was very secluded. She wouldn't talk to many people with the exception of her brother and sister but Erza gave her a bit of a talking too and she finally started to become a major figure in the young generation of the guild. The two quickly began to start a rivalry between each other.

Naruto was currently at the request board when Lucy came up to him. "Naruto? Could you come on a request with me? I think it might be a bit over my head."

"Sure no bother Lucy, Is there anyone else you want to join us?"

"Well master said I'd need to ask one more other than your self but I have no idea who to ask."

"I'll find someone if it's ok. What's the request anyway?"

"A village near the Phoenix mountains in western Fiore asked for protection from a group of bandits."

"Seems simple enough so why ask for help?" Naruto didn't know why she would need back-up for a simple request.

"It's because I don't know how strong these bandits are and I'd rather have back up just in case."

"Gotcha. I'll ask around now sure and we can head out soon."


(Magic Four Wheel Vehicle heading towards Phoenix mountains)

Lucy, Naruto and Mirajane were in a MFWV towards Moneta village on the eastern edge of the Phoenix mountain range. Mira was originally reluctant in going with the group but Naruto tricked her by saying 'I'll go ask Erza then.' With that said Mira's ego got the better of her. Currently Lucy was currently driving the vehicle "We should be in at the village soon."

"It was quick thinking renting this car Lucy we would've spent day walking here." Naruto said that but he was really jealous of Lucy. He really wanted to drive but was too young.

"I hate Protection request they are so simple." Mira was sulking

"I wouldn't say that Mira. My first protection request was nothing like I expected."

"What happened?"

"Was almost four years ago. Was a C class request in Onda. Should've been classed as an A request."

"Did you finish it?"

"Yeah but it was thanks to Gildarts being with us that we just about finished it." Naruto didn't want to say the full story. Images of White killing herself was going through Naruto head.

"Pff I could've done that job by myself!" Mira really started to get over confidant.

"Naw I doubt that."

"What you say?"

"I done that job with a team. If it wasn't for Gray and Cana I wouldn't be alive." Mira didn't answer back she just remained quite. "Here we are guys." Lucy turned stop the flow of magic into the vehicle and everyone got out of the car. Moneta was a small village only with less than a hundred people living there an old man walks up to the mages. "Are you from Fairy Tail?"

"Yes, My name is Lucy McGarden and this is Naruto Dreyar and Mirajane Strauss." Lucy introduced the group to the elder.

"Oh thank goodness your here we've had a group of bandits coming here every two weeks demanding food from our crops. As you see living on the edge of a mountain range we have limited land in which we can grow food. We grow three type due to the altitude Bull Nose Sweet Bell Peppers, Red Cored Chantenay Carrot and Four Seasons Head Lettuce. We sell them in the capital Crocus. If we lose anymore We won't be able to feed ourselves."

"Don't worry old man! When a wizard of Fairy Tail make a promise we keep it!" Naruto lifted the spirits of the village.


The group sat inside the house of the village elder.

"I must say I didn't expect you to be here for another few more days."

"Well we got here as so as we can since there was no date for when we were need on the request. I hope you don't mind."

"Not at all Mrs McGarden but you could be waiting a few more days as we expect them to be here in five days."

"Aww man we got to wait five days. This sucks." Mira groaned her frustration.

"Its not so bad Mira it gives us five day to train and prepare. Say what about a sparing match? What do you say?"

"With you Naruto... Bring it!"


(Naruto vs Mirajane)

"Ok I'm going to ref this fight. So lets make it clean and try not to injure each other to badly." Lucy didn't want the town they were supposed to protect be destroyed on there first day and before the bandits came. "BEGIN"

(Invoke Magic OST)

Mira started by charging at Naruto "TAKE OVER: SATAN SOUL!" Transforming into her base Satan soul form Mira threw punches and kicks at Naruto. While dodging every attack Naruto would throw a kunai in a different area away from Mira. "Quit dodging can't you fight a girl or something?" Mira was getting more angry every time Naruto moved away from her attacks.

"Well now I'm ready. FLYING RAIJIN!" Naruto jumped to the middle of the scattered kunai. "One hit and this fights over." Naruto picked up the kunai he was standing over on the ground. "Now attack."

Mira moved as fast as she could towards Naruto focusing demon magic to her fist she aimed it at Naruto. Naruto didn't move this time he just slowly tossed the kunai he was holding up in the air. 'Got you now you bastard!' Mira thought she had finally got a hit on Naruto. Naruto softly spoke "FLYING RAIJIN." He teleported to a kunai meters away. Mira was really pissed off now but before she could readjust her position Naruto had transported back to the kunai he tossed just before. Kicking Mira hard into the ground. Upon her impact a large dust cloud exploded up in the air and covered the surrounding area. When the dust settled Naruto was seen on top of Mira who was lying in the ground. He was pointing a kunai at her.

"The winner is Naruto." Lucy pointed her hand at Naruto.

Naruto helped Mira up on her feet. "Cheater." Mira huffed as she dusted herself off now back in her normal form.

"I didn't cheat. Your lucky I didn't use the Rasengan or my shadow clones hahaha." Naruto laughed at Mira childish tantrum. "I will say though if you would've made contact you might've won the fight. So we'll need to work on your speed more. At time it felt like your moves and movement were predictable."

"Yeah to you they might have been but I'm even with that armour freak."

"That's why he is saying that Mira. So you could better her instead of being even." Lucy reassured Mira that Naruto was trying to help her with his criticism.


(Eastern ridge of the Phoenix Mountains)

Gildarts and Laxus were making there way down the mountain but with the heavy snowfall they were struggling to make get headway down the trail. They were currently resting in a mountain hotel halfway down the mountain. They were returning to Magnolia after the S class mission turned out to be a huge waste of time. It was too simple for an S class. Gildarts was thinking that they missed something. Something didn't seem right after the job request had ended. "Ha If that's an S class I will become one this year."

"I have no doubt that you will become one Laxus. Since you're the master's grandson its in your blood."

"I'm more than just the grandson of Fairy Tail's master Gildarts."

"Yeah I know your a Dreyar."

"You're not getting the point I'm making!" Laxus stood up and roared at Gildarts.

"No you're not getting it Laxus! Your Great-Grandfather was one of the founding members of Fairy Tail! Your Grandfather is now its current master! Your Father was an S class mage when he was there and I believe you will be one too! Just you carry a heavy name doesn't mean you carry the weight of the world with you too!" Gildarts layed into Laxus who was not expecting Gildarts who was normally a chilled and relaxed guy to suddenly do that.

"Whatever..." Laxus turned away and continued to walk down the mountain.

"Its gonna take us five days to reach Moneta. Are you going to huff all the way?" Laxus didn't reply to Gildart's question. 'This is gonna be a long trip back home.' this was the only thought going through both of their minds.


(Four days later The Fairy Tail guild in Magnolia)

Makarov just arrived back from a guild master's meeting and he was given permission from the other guilds and the magic council to increase the amount of S class wizards for the guild. He walk up to Wakaba and Macao. "So how are you two today. anyone leave on a job request while I was gone?"

"Only two. Its been a bit quite with people going on job request." Macao stated. Wakaba looked around for the request folder that all jobs are listed. "The two jobs taken are an S class with DG beside it. That one was taken by Gildarts who took Laxus with him."

"So they took the Job for Moneta village then. Good... That town is in good hands... They better not destroy it!"

"Ehh master they didn't take the Moneta job that one was taken by Lucy, Naruto and Mira." Makarov was stunned to hear this.

"What have I done. I've gotten the ranking for both jobs incorrectly!"


That's Part 1 over with. I'll try to get part 2 up soon! Now normally I'd be doing a Q+A but i have something to get off my chest.

Use one language for the Hiraishin?

What was up with the Hot Butter?

Why didn't Naruto take the criminals with him?

Ok I'll be honest this was made from the one guest account review. And I'm going to point out a few little facts for you.

Number 1) Your an idiot. If you don't know in the english dub of Naruto, you know the one done by Viz Media the justu is called Flying Raijin.

Number 2) Hiraishin is the romaji spelling (Japanese english language version.) The full english word for word translation is the Flying Thunder God Technique. Now think really hard you have bound to heard thunder god somewhere in this before... oh yeah that's right Laxus' bodyguards the THUNDER GOD Tribe! Do you really think that would make more sense?

Number 3) The Hot butter is the Irish version of the hot knife reference so call it a lost in translation moment.

And Number 4) You seem to know how borders work do you? If you arrest a criminal in one country they have to be extradited into another and since Fiore is a NEUTRAL COUNTRY (which I said in the chapter) that isn't gonna happen. And I didn't 'lose interest' I actually expanded it that I originally planed 2 chapter for it. the hard part was not having Naruto kill both of them so I left with Michael never walking again.

Now if you wish to criticise my work I'm all for it. I see it was a way to help improve myself and my work but when someone tries to be smart and be a keyboard warrior to me when their IQ is the same number as their shoe size. I'm gonna speak my mind about it.

This has been the only review I've removed and I don't like doing it but I felt you would infect others with your low level of intelligence if they had to read the whole thing like I've had to do.

I am really sorry for this rant folks I really am but I had to say something about this. Its been annoying me since I've read it.

Now If you were looking to have your question answered in this chapter I'm sorry but this review just made my blood boil. If you did submit a question I'll gladly answer it in the next chapter with an extra long Q+A. Till next time and again sorry about the rant at the end and I hope you liked the chapter.
