The Glaive and the Queen of the Fairies
Fairy Tail Guild Hall
5:00 P.M.
With Erza being back in the guild, Fairy Tail has their most powerful mages in the guild with Erza being one of the three S-Class mages in the guild, Zero Kurosaki being back for the past 2 days and a potential S-Class mage in the making, Natsu Dragneel the troublesome Dragon Slayer and Gray Fullbuster, the stripper of Fairy Tail. Of course there are the other 3 S-Class mages in the guild but only two of them are still on missions but one of them hasn't awaken her powers to the fullest.
Makarov feels that with Erza being back from her mission, maybe she can help Zero perfect his requip abilities with the crystals of the KingsGlaive and plus there was a fight that was suppose to happen between the two of them until Zero went off for a 2 year adventure to find Cindy.
He looks ahead to see the two having a conversation and immediately can tell that their picking up where they last left off and some of the other members can see Erza being friendly to KingGlaive of Fairy Tail. They haven't seen her smile in a while besides her being a loud drunk with her smile being a bit weird for a girl like her.
Zero would show all of the Royal Arms he has collected over the past 2 years, impressing the scarlet haired teen that he has gathered 13 of the forgotten Royal families of Fiore and his strength has increased during his journey and she notices his pressure.
"I have to say Zero, you have gotten powerful over the past 2 years. Seems the power of the King fits you." Erza says with a smile on her face as she would take a bite on her favorite dessert, Strawberry Shortcake.
When she made that comment, Zero felt he heard of that name before as well as the strawberry she was eating.
Ichigo, what is the difference between a King and his Horse?
and I am not talking about the obvious one is a animal and a person, or one has 4 legs while the other has 2.
Form, ability and power! That's what's puzzling. If their form, ability are exactly the same, why is it one becomes the king and leads them to battle while the horse carries the king.
So what is the characteristics that distinguishes these two beings?
There's only one answer, Instinct!
In order for identical beings to become stronger and gain power, they need to develop that killer instinct and that instinct is mostly forged in battle! They must develop insatiable hunger to engage in battle. They must live to mercilessly crush, sherd and slice their enemies.
This thirst for power is not an unnatural desire, in fact forms that very essence of our beings deep within our body lies the honed instinct to dominate and slaughter our enemies.
My friend, you don't have that. You use your brain to win a fight attempt to defeat with reason and logic. You don't tap into those pure based instincts that exist within your core, waiting to be released!
And simple matter is it doesn't work.
Your WEAK, Ichigo!
'What the hell was that?' Zero places a hand on his head, wondering where in Earth-Land has he heard that from.
"Zero?" Erza said in a concern tone, "You okay?"
"Y-yeah. 'Nother speech I must have heard from my past." Zero replies back to the scarlet haired teen, making her eyes widen to hear that. "I've been getting and hearing some speeches from my past but so far, none of them made sense."
"You've been getting them as of lately?" She asks him and he nods his head to her question, "Any idea if they made sense for you?"
"Some." He stated plainly to her, "So far, it's only been speeches from my past but I still haven't figured out what they all mean. I've been trying to figure each of those memories I've been seeing or hearing but so far nothing."
"Well I'm sure in time, everything will make sense." She assures the orange haired teen as she takes a bite of her strawberry shortcake.
Zero would see that just eating strawberry shortcake would bring a smile on her face and Zero would see some of her beauty, after all he isn't quite dense as he originally was. Of course, he does know that there are other beauties in the guild with Cana, Mirajane, Lucy, Levy and even Bisca but for him, Zero thinks that Erza is the top beauty of the guild.
With Cana and Levy
"Looks like Zero has a crush on Erza." Cana whispers to Levy.
"You really think Zero has a crush on her?" Levy raises an eyebrow to her friends question.
"Just look at the boy." She pointed at the KingsGlaive and the Queen of the Fairies have a nice conversation and catching up from their respective journeys. "Zero seriously has a growing crush on her."
For Levy, she could possibly buy into that. The amnesia KingsGlaive of Fairy Tail, Zero Kurosaki and Erza Scarlet: Titania, the Queen of the Fairies. Zero is already considered to be a strong member of the guild and could be a future S-Class Mage in the making and Erza is the strongest female S-Class mage of Fairy Tail, a real powerhouse couple.
"Well, that's if Zero knows beauty, then I'll support him." Levy replies back.
"Is someone getting jealous that he's spending time with her?" Cana teases the blue haired book reader, to which she shakes her head.
"No Cana. I'm just wondering if Zero does knows feelings is all. So far, he only knows all of us as his friends but he is only close to some of us like Cindy being one of the closes people outside of the guild."
"For the guys, only gramps, Natsu and Gray are the closes to him." She stated to her and added, "For the girls: its us, Erza, Mira, Lucy from the looks of it and Cindy."
They continue to talk about Zero and wonders if he can show romantic feelings for Erza until Mira hands them their respective drinks, tea for Levy and tall glass of beer for Cana.
"What are you guys talking about?" Mira asks both of them as she places their drinks on the table.
"Just curious if Zero has romantic feelings for the Queen over there." Cana replies to the white haired beauty and pointed at the both Erza and Zero as they continue talking about their adventures, to which Mira actually bought the idea of this power couple.
"You know that we don't play matchmaking Cana. If both of them have feelings for each other, let it normal. We just can't force them to be a couple." Mira stated to her friend.
"Oh look!"
Couple minutes prior
"Really? You found the forgotten tombs of the Exalted King?" There were rumors of a forgotten tomb of one of Fiore's earliest kings (Think of BC or BCE) before the dark mage Zeref appeared and there have been scholars trying to find the forgotten tombs of the Exalted King of Fiore but none of them have been able to find them, that is until Zero found the tombs.
"Yeah," He rolls his sleeves and shows her the marks of the Exalt King, a bird shaped sigil with tear drop above, "Each Exalted King I found had there own unique abilities in swordsmanship so it would help me learn better with my 13 Royal Arms."
"First the lost KingsGlaive of Fiore to the forgotten tombs of the Exalted King. Seems you were meant to find them." She couldn't help but smile to see the stories she has heard of her childhood be true with Zero finding each of them.
"It gave me more reasons to find them. Everyone in the world has been trying to find them but couldn't so, I'll do what I can to bring them." He replies with a smile on his face, a catches Erza eating a piece of her cake but there was some whip cream on her face. "You got some whip cream on your cheek." He uses his thumb to remove the cream, which Erza didn't expect him to do something like this.
Cana, Levy and Mira were in shock to see a bold move from Zero, even if it was unintentional but maybe this could be something for the both of them. Erza in the meantime was slightly blushing from the move. It was one thing to use a napkin but have someone using their thumb to whip it away is completely different.
"Hey Erza, your face is kinda red. Catching a fever?" The three girls did a anime fall with Zero's dense nature/attitude. He has no idea that he made the Queen of the Fairies blushing.
"N-no, I-I'm fine Zero." The girls gawked that Erza stuttered at Zero's curiosity.
"Uh...ok?" He didn't know what to say besides saying 'Ok'.
Once she regain her composure, Erza decided to ask him directly, "When will I have my match against you Zero?"
Zero smirks as he was hoping to hear that from her, "Whenever you're ready Erza. I'm gamed."
