Welcome all to my Fairy Tail Fan Fiction! I hope you will enjoy this little story of mine. Updates will be whenever I can get a chapter out. The main characters name is Garion Angelous. He's an OC I came up with, and no he isn't a dragon slayer. I've tried to be as original as possible with my idea for his powers, and those of you who figure out what I'm basing them off, I'll give you a metaphorical high five. I want to say more in this, but I have nothing that I can speak about to fill this space. By describing the problem, I have just solved it.

Genius

Anyway, hope you enjoy and let's get started!

Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail.

"SMASH" The Vulcan roared before smashing its fists into the ground, where seconds previously Garion had been standing. He landed several meters off to the left, rolling as he landed and getting to his feet. He spun around, his light blue eyes focusing on the beast in front of him. His hair was sandy blond, and reached down to his ears. It had no distinct style, simply sticking out at the front and hanging down the sides of his face, forever looking like it need to be combed down. The Vulcan glanced over, and roared in anger when it saw its target had avoided its attack.

"ME NO LIKE MAN! ME LIKE WOMAN! ME SMASH MAN WHO STOP ME GET WOMAN!" it roared before charging Garion, who gathered a ball of pure white light energy and hurled it at the Vulcan's face. Instead of impacting, it exploded a half a meter from its face, blinding the creature. Reflexively it covered its eyes with its hands and let out a startled cry which changed to "oof" as Garion's foot collided with its stomach. Using his momentum, Garion swung his body forwards and delivered an uppercut to the beasts jaw, sending it flying into a nearby tree.

Garion landed in a crouch and stood up, brushing dirt off his short sleeved light blue shirt which bore the mark of his guild on the back, which was in pure white. Which guild mark did he bare? Why, the mark of the greatest guild in Fiore.

Fairy Tail

He reached down to brush the dirt off his shorts which were mainly red with a light blue stripe running down the sides of the legs, and became 2 solid rings when they reached the bottom of his shorts, which stopped just below his knees. He wore fully closed dark blue shoes with white socks with red stripes that reached just above his ankles. The shoes also bore his guild mark, on the left side of his left shoe and the right side of his right shoe, both marks red.

He looked around the area and sighed, a small smile coming onto his face. He didn't have any outstanding facial features such as a giant nose or protruding jawline. Overall his face could be summarised into 3 words: Boyish and innocent. The same could be said about his eyes. His skin was light in colour, and he didn't have any spots or scars. He looked to be about 14 years of age.

There were the bodies of about 12 Vulcan's lying around in the forest clearing, all unconscious. They had been terrorising a nearby town for a few months, and Garion had arrived 2 days ago to complete the job request that had been sent to Fairy tail. The town's folk had been happy to see him, but confused he hadn't arrived sooner, as they had received word the job had been accepted over 2 months ago. The reason for this was because Garion had accepted a large bunch of jobs last time he'd been in Magnolia, and so he'd been doing them one by one. This was the last one, meaning he was going to head home afterwards.

He heard a low growl from behind him and spun around, ready to fight. The final Vulcan was standing looking at him, its jaw slightly agape at the sight in front of it. It was bigger than the others, so Garion guessed it must be the leader. Its fur was also a much darker colour as well.

"You do this?" The Vulcan asked. Garion nodded. The Vulcan roared and pounded its chest with its hands. "ME SMASH YOU NOW!" It roared, charging Garion who dodged to the right to avoid the attack. Glancing upwards, he saw the sun was close to setting, meaning evening would be arriving soon. I better hurry up, otherwise I'll be late for dinner, and Miss Poluschry won't be happy with me if that happens! Garion thought, a smile coming to his face at the thought of food. A roar snapped him out of his thoughts as the Vulcan charged him. Garion quickly dodged to the left, rolling as he landed and turning to face the Vulcan leader.

Better get this done quickly. Garion stood up and held out his right hand, which was open. After a second, a sphere of purple dark energy started forming. After several seconds, the sphere was complete and without a moment's hesitation, he threw it at the Vulcan. The explosion sent the creature flying into a tree on the other side of the clearing, knocking it out cold.

Garion let out a tired breath, but he had a small smile on his face. He turned around and began walking back to town, confident the Vulcans had learned their lesson and would never terrorise the town again.

*Several minutes later*

"Well done good chap!" The mayor declared once Garion had told him that he had dealt with the Vulcans "I'm sure those beasts won't try and attack the town again. I have to say, you Fairy Tail wizards might be a rowdy bunch, but you certainly get the job done right!"

"No thanks are necessary sir; I was just doing my job." Garion said with a smile. The mayor smiled back. "Now then, I assume you would like your reward?" He asked. Garion nodded, and the mayor pulled out a bag of Jewels and handed them to the young wizard. "Here you go. 60000 Jewels as stated in the contract." The mayor said as Garion took the bag.

"Thank you sir" Garion said. He turned around and walked out the door, closing it as he left. After he left the mayors house, he made his way to the house he was staying in, owned by the aforementioned Miss Poluschry. He would be leaving as soon as he'd had dinner, since the train ride back to Magnolia would take several hours; he figured it would be best to take the overnight train.

He knocked on the door. After a few seconds, a middle aged woman answered. She had brown hair down over her shoulders and grey eyes. She was wearing a slightly dirty blouse which was sawdust brown. She smiled when she saw who had knocked on the door.

"Garion, it's good to see you. How did it go?" She asked. "Good. I managed to beat them without getting hurt." He responded, knowing that if he didn't say something, she would have immediately asked if he was hurt. "That's good to hear. So I take it your-"She was cut off by 2 small forms slamming into the back of her legs, knocking her forwards slightly and causing her to spin around.

"Ow." They both complained. One was a boy, aged 7 with light brown hair and eyes; one was a girl, aged 5 with blond hair and blue eyes. They got up, rubbed their heads and then looked up at their mother before looking past her. They both smiled broadly when they saw Garion.

"Garion!" They both said joyfully before rushing outside, only to be caught by their mother who looked amused at their antics. "Now dear's; Garion's had a long day and unfortunately is leaving. Please don't pester him as he is very tired." She then looked at the mage in question. "Will you be having dinner with us first?" She asked.

"Of course! It'd be rude for me to just take my stuff and leave." Garion said. The two children's faces had dropped. "Now don't be sad. I'm sure if Garion is ever around here again, he'll be sure to visit, won't you?" She asked. Garion nodded. "Of course. If I ever pass through town, I'll be sure to stop by and say hello. It's the least I can do since you let me stay here for free." He said.

"It's nothing Garion. Mages in these parts are a rare sight, and one from a guild like Fairy Tail is truly something extraordinary. It was the least we could do to thank you in our own small way for helping the town." A man who had just appeared in the doorway said. He had brown hair and blue eyes, and was the same height as the mother. He had a warm, friendly smile on his face, one which Garion returned. "It's nothing Mr Poluschry. And once again thank you." Garion said.

The man chuckled. "It is nothing but a pleasure. Now then, who's hungry?"

"Me!" Garion and the two children said in unison. "Well then, what are we waiting for?" The man asked. "Let us eat!" He declared.

*Several minutes later*

"Goodbye!" Garion called back as he ran towards the train station. Night had set in now, and the lacrima that served as street lights had kicked in, giving off a warm orange glow.

"Goodbye Garion! We wish you luck in your future adventures!" Mr Poluschry called out. "Thanks!" Garion called back. Once he could no longer see their house, he turned and started running faster towards the train station. The bag he was holding over his shoulder bouncing each time one of his feet hit the ground. The train station entered sight, and within seconds Garion had reached it.

He walked in, bought a ticket and then climbed aboard the departing train just as the doors closed. He made his way to the central carriage and then sat down in one of the booths near the centre of the train. He set his bag down and smiled as the town rolled passed him, and eventually it was replaced with the darkness of the wilderness. It was a long trip across Fiore. He closed his eyes, a small smile on his lips.

"Magnolia, I'm coming home."

Garion awoke slowly, his eyes creaking open. The train was still moving, meaning either he hadn't reached Magnolia yet, or he had, only to have slept through the stop.

No I asked the conductor to wake me up when we got to Magnolia. Since he isn't here, I guess we haven't arrived yet. He sat up and stretched, yawning as he did so. He opened his bag and took out an apple he had stored in it. He ate it quickly and threw the middle bit away. The door at the end of the carriage opened, and a man wearing a railway outfit walked in. He spotted Garion and walked over.

"Ah, you're already awake. I'd like to inform you we are almost at Magnolia, about 5 minutes away." He said crisply. "Thank you sir" Garion said, smiling at the man. The conductor gave a small smile in reply before bowing slightly. "It is a pleasure sir. I hope you enjoyed the ride." He said. He then walked off, probably going to wake any passengers who wanted to disembark at Magnolia.

Garion could barely contain his excitement. It's been 3 months since I've seen anyone else from Fairy Tail, I wonder how their all doing. He then let out a quiet laugh I wonder if Gray and Natsu have finally managed to destroy the guild hall during one of their fights. He then chuckled I'm sure Erza would have stopped them before they could. I really hope the master's been doing alright too. I wonder how Levy's doing…

The train started slowing, and Garion leapt to his feet, his bag over his shoulder and an excited grin on his face. The train entered the station, but Garion had leapt off and left the train station before it fully stopped. He ran through the streets of Magnolia with a grin plastered to his face. When most people saw him, they cleared out of his way. As he ran past, many residents of Magnolia recognized him and a few waved to him and shouted their greetings. He tried his best to respond, but nearly crashed headfirst into a wall.

He rounded another corner, and another and another. When the guild hall finally came into sight however, he stopped running. He blinked several times and frowned. Is that the guild hall? He wondered. He didn't recognize it and the only thing that told him that the building in front of him was the guild hall were the words "Fairy Tail" written across the top of the arc way leading into the building. I wonder if I wasn't so wrong about thinking Natsu and Gray had finally managed to destroy the guild hall. I guess I'll have to ask master what happened. But first, I need to tell I've finally got enough. He then started running towards the door, his smile returning.

Makarov Dreynar, the current guild master of Fairy Tail, took a swig from his tankard which currently contained his favourite beverage. He looked around the guild hall, smiling at the current mood. Levy was reading a book while Elfman was shouting at Jet and Droy about something, probably to do with them failing another job. Cana was sitting at a table watching the scene with an amused smile on her face while occasionally taking a swig from her tankard. The idea of challenging her to a drinking contest came to the forefront of Makarov's mind, but he quickly decided he'd actually prefer to remember the rest of his day.

"Hey Mira I need a drink over here, mine's just run dry." Cana called out from her table. "Coming Cana! What do you want?" A sweet voice said from behind Makarov. "The usual." The drinker replied. Mirajane Strauss swept past Makarov and went towards Cana carrying her requested drink, offering the guild master a good view of her rear end. Fairy Tail certainly does have some fine women… Makarov thought to himself.

Mira handed Cana the beverage before turning around, prompting Makarov to quickly take a swig of his drink least he be caught peering. Unfortunately he swallowed a bit too quickly and started spluttering and spurting violently, comically thumping himself on the chest rapidly. Mira quickly walked over and thumped him several times on the back.

"Are you alright Master?" She asked once Makarov had recovered from his instant Karma. "Yes I'm fine. Just drank too quickly." He explained. He eyed his tankard suspiciously before taking another swig. He looked around again. "It sure is quiet today…" He said to no-one in particular.

"Oh don't worry Master; once Natsu and the others get back, I'm sure the place will liven up!" Mira said cheerfully, prompting the guild master to groan. "I really hope it doesn't liven up too much, we did just rebuild the guild hall." Makarov muttered. Team Natsu had recently been involved with the events at the Tower Of Heaven. That had been 3 days ago. Makarov had been relieved to hear they were all okay.

He sighed. "Well we're going to have a bigger problem than Natsu and Gray's constant fighting when they get back." Makarov said referring to the new dragon slayer who'd joined the guild. Currently he was out on a job.

"I guess." Mira said. "But don't worry. If you tell them to leave Gajeel alone, I'm sure they will." Makarov huffed before speaking "Hopefully, but knowing those 2 they definitely won't like it. I just hope Erza understands. That way she'll be able to keep them-"

He was cut off as the door flew open and Garion ran several feet into the hall. He skidded to a halt and looked around, a grin spread across his face.

"Hey guys I'm home!" He yelled. Those present in the guild stopped what they were doing to see who just burst through the door, and a wave of greetings had erupted when they saw who it was. Garion responded with his own before he made his way over to Makarov and Mira.

"Garion my boy! It's good to see you again. It's certainly been a while hasn't it?" The guild master asked, a smile spread across his face. "Yes it has, over 3 months. It's good to see you again Master." Garion then looked at Mira who was beaming at him. "Hey Mira! Good to see you again!" He said.

"Good to see you too Garion." The white haired girl replied. "How have you been?" She asked. "Great! Although I really missed you guys. Especially you're cooking Mira; nothing I ate after I left was as nearly as good as what you can make." He said beaming back at Mira, his voice filled with honesty. Mira giggled at him. "Oh thank you Garion. If you want, I could make you dinner tonight as a welcome home gift." She offered.

"Really? That would be awesome! Yes please, I would love it!" Garion said, his face brightening even more at the thought of Mira's cooking. Mira couldn't help but once more giggle at Garion. He then seemed to remember the master was there, who'd been watching the little exchange with a fond smile on his face.

"Oh I'm sorry master but I forgot to ask, how have you been doing?" Garion asked the old man. "I've been doing well my boy. One or two incidents but nothing the guild couldn't handle. I have to say, it's good to have you back." He replied, a smile on his face, not really wanting to bother the young wizard with the recent troubles Fairy Tail had gone through. "Good to hear. Oh master, I managed to finish all my jobs!" Garion declared proudly. "I now have enough money to buy the house I've always wanted!"

"Well done my boy!" Makarov praised, a proud smile spread across his face. "I always had faith that you could do it. When do you plan to buy it?" He asked.

"As soon as I can!" Garion said ecstatically. He then looked around sharply before looking back at Makarov. "Oh I forgot to ask, why has the guild hall changed so much?" He asked. Makarov let out a sigh. I'd have preferred to have avoided telling him this Makarov thought. "Is something wrong master?" Garion asked, tilting his head slightly to the left. "Did Natsu and Gray finally destroy the guild hall?"

Makarov chuckled. "No Garion, unfortunately not. We were involved in a guild war with Phantom Lord. Victory was ours, but we paid the price of our guild hall being destroyed." He explained. Garion just stared at him. "W-Was anyone hurt? What happened to them afterwards? Why did they attack us?" He asked; worry filling his eyes and his expression changing to one of shock.

"Their guild was disbanded by order of the magic council." Mira said. "Don't worry about it Garion, no one was killed, but nearly everyone was injured in some way, mostly due to the fighting, but their all fine now. As for why… it's because the father of one of our newest guild members hired them to capture her." She explained. Garion looked at Mira before looking at Makarov. "M-Master I'm so sorry… I-If I'd know I'd have come to help…" Garion said. Makarov eyed the boy before smiling and extending his arm to pat Garion on the head. "No need to apologize my boy. I know you wouldn't have hesitated to help if you'd been here, so don't think about it. The past is the past, no need to worry about it."

Garion grinned. "Whatever you say Master! Oh have I missed anything else?" He asked. Makarov and Mira then gave him a brief synopsis of what's happened since he'd last been in Magnolia, although Mira ended up doing most of the talking, and Makarov chipped in here and there.

"Wow, sounds like I missed a lot! So we've got another dragon slayer in the guild? That's awesome!" Garion exclaimed. Makarov sighed. If only everyone else could share that viewpoint… He thought. "Well I'll just go see how everyone else is doing before I go out to buy the house." Garion said before turning around and practically sprinting over to everyone else.

"He hasn't changed at all has he?" Mira asked. Makarov shook his head. "No he hasn't, but I'm glad. He truly is an exceptional boy." Makarov then smiled. "He's been working so hard towards having enough jewels to buy that house he wants. I'm glad to see he's got enough now." He said. "Yeah. That's our Garion for you, doesn't stop till it's done." Mira said with a smile. Makarov then glanced at his tankard.

"Mira! I need more to drink!"

Meanwhile in the middle of the hall Garion was making his way over to Levy who looked up and smiled at him "Hey Garion! Good to see you again. Hard to believe it's been 2 months since I last saw you. You finally got enough money for the house?" She asked. Garion nodded vigorously, a grin spread across his face.

"It's good to see you too Levy. Yeah I'll be moving out today. Thanks again for letting me stay in your room at Fairy Hills for so long, I just wish I could pay you back somehow."

Levy's smile fell a little. She'd started sharing her room with Garion about 3 years ago and she'd never found a single thing to complain about. He always helped her with getting the money for rent; he often helped her out on jobs, essentially making him an unofficial member of Team Shadow Gear. Also since he could fly, he was a great help in getting books down from the top of her shelves quickly. It made her a little lazy, but she'd never admit that.

"You don't have to worry about that Garion. All the help you've given me over the last 3 years more than makes up for it." Her smile returned in full. "Can I come along today when you buy it?" She asked.

"Sure thing!" He said. He then suddenly looked very guilty "Sorry if it sounds like I'm happy to be moving out! Well I am… but not because I didn't enjoying sharing your room with you or anything!" He blurted out, suddenly looking embarrassed. "It's just I'm-"

"It's alright Garion I know what you mean." Levy said, chuckling at the boy. "Just remember to fetch all your things after you move in."

"I will! In fact I'll fetch them before I buy the house."

At that moment, Elfman finished his verbal thrashing of Jet and Droy and turned around to smile at Garion.

"Garion! Good to see you again kiddo, how've you been?" he asked.

"Elfman! Good to see you too! I've been doing great, how about you?" The young wizard asked.

"Great. How'd your jobs go?"

"Great! I finished them all and now I've got enough for the house! I'm gonna go buy it today."

Elfman huffed before looking at Jet and Droy. "See? Even Garion's more of a man than you 2! And he's only 14!" He looked at Garion. "You're gonna grow up to be a real man Garion, more than these 2 ever could be." The two aforementioned men hung their heads in shame. "We're sorry…" They muttered. "Hey Elfman don't be so hard on them." Garion requested, smiling. The older man looked at him before huffing. "Fine… but if they screw up one more job…" He left the statement hanging in the air before walking off.

Levy clapped her hands together, breaking the silence. "Hey Garion, want to fetch your stuff now?" She asked. The boy nodded "Yeah! Then I can buy the house!" He said his mind currently focused on buying his house.

"Well then, what are we waiting for?" Levy asked.

*half an hour later*

Garion looked up at his house, a proud smile on his face. It was a fairly nice house, located on the outskirts of Magnolia near Fairy Hills. It had 2 bedrooms, the main one and a spare one, which could be used by any member of the guild at any time they needed somewhere to stay for a while, both upstairs. He carried his things through the door into an open entrance hall. The kitchen was to the right through a glass door. To the left was the lounge and eating area. Straight ahead across the hall was a flight of stairs leading upwards. To the right of the stairs there was an oaken wood door which leads into a bathroom. To the left of the stairs was a hallway which leads to an empty room.

He set his bags down in the middle of the open hall. Levy had helped him carry the rest of his things through, and she set down the 2 bags he'd given her. "Thanks again for this Levy." Garion said.

"Don't mention it. Besides I wanted to see what your house looked like anyway, so it seemed like a good chance to do so." She looked around. "Not much furniture is there?" She noted the complete lack of any chairs in the entrance hall.

"Why do you think I spent so long getting money together? I thought it'd be best to buy it all at once. I'm gonna do it right after we get my stuff into my room!" Garion said with excitement in his voice. "Now then, let's go see what my bedroom looks like!"

Levy smiled and picked up the bags. They weren't heavy, since Garion had intentionally taken the heaviest bags to carry so she wouldn't have to. Garion was always like that, always trying to do the hard things so other people wouldn't have to, but he was reasonable enough that he could see when he was being overly stubborn about it.

She went up the stairs into another hallway. This one wasn't as wide as the entrance hall, but still wider than your average hall way. The door to the spare room was on the right, the door to the upstairs bathroom on the left, which only had a toilet, sink and shower, unlike the downstairs bathroom which had a massive bath. The spare room door was open, and the room lacked furnishings. She walked into the main bedroom, which too was devoid of furnishing. It was fairly large and possessed 2 windows across the room. The interior walls of the house were a dull red and the carpet a light purple.

"It really looks like a nice house Garion and I'm sure it'll look even better when you get all the furniture." Levy said. "Yeah I know it will! Anyway now I need to go buy all the furniture!" He exclaimed cheerfully. "Hey, you think we could get some people from the guild to help me carry it all here?" He asked the bookworm.

"I'm sure they'll be more than happy to help." Levy replied,

"Alright then what are we waiting for? Let's get going!" and with that, he turned and sprinted past Levy. She turned to follow him, a fond smile on her face.

"It's good to have you back Garion."

And that's the first chapter done! I hope you enjoyed it. Anyway yes this takes place after the TOH arc (Tower of heaven) meaning that the battle of Fairy Tail is up next (I'll be skipping all official filler arcs and I'll be throwing in an original one or two). Anyway as for the pairing it's… (Drum roll please)

Garion and Wendy! (Gawen :D but you knew that from the summary, unless you didn't read it xD)

Since she only shows up at Oracion Seis (I think I spelled that right), that part isn't going to start for a while. Also he's a regular wizard/mage, he isn't S-class. Anyway I hope you enjoyed the chapter, please leave a review telling me what you think, feel free to point out any mistakes, and I'll see you next time. Also updates won't be often, like one chapter a month or maybe.
