Of Sand and Spirits. Chapter One: Finally Finding Fairy Tail!
At the outskirts of Magnolia; A group divulges upon a hilltop. Alecks, A tall black-haired man of 25, Sam, a black-haired man of 21, and Leon, a brown-haired aged 17 stand overlooking the town. Alecks towers over Leon and stands two heads taller than Sam.
"We're finally here, Magnolia and the site of Fairy Tail!" The brown haired one chirps.
"Shut up Leon" The taller noiret man snaps and pops his knuckles.
"Awww, why are you so mean to me Alecks?!" Leon quibbles and arches over.
Both older men sigh and Leon pouts, running a hand through his long, wild, unkempt and spiky light brown hair.
"Can we get going now?!" The shortest pleads.
Alecks allows shadows to flow across his hands like a liquid and the middle height man pipes up
"Sure, not far now" He smiles.
The three made their way slowly towards the large wooden Fairy Tail building. Leon cheered in glee before pushing the doors open to the guild.
The guild were doing their regular buffoonery; drinking and throwing things around the hall.
"Oh hello, do you want to join the guild?" The beautiful Mirajane asks.
"Yeah….we would!" Leon chirps giddily.
"Ok...if you would please follow me" Mirajane flashes a brilliant smile, making all but Alecks blush.
The three 'men' follow the silver-haired barmaid closely, and, Sam didn't even make an attempt to hide the fact that he was checking her out.
Leon nudged the black-haired card mage walking with him "Dude, you're totally into Mirajane, aren't ya?" The shorter boy taunts.
Well, to call Leon short isn't exactly true. He is above average height for his age, it's just Sam and Alecks are GIGANTIC.
"No...not at all, what would make you think that?!" Sam chuckle nervously, shuffling his deck of cards.
"Sam...you're so obviously lying" Leon deadpanned his older friend, adjusting the sword which lay sheathe upon his back, secured by a brown leather strap wrapping around Leon's torso.
"H-How did you know?" The middle man (Heh heh...puns) quibbles.
"You ALWAYS shuffle your cards when you're nervous" The shortest sighs in a fed-up manner.
A gruff, booming voice interrupts their conversation;
"Will you two get a move on?!" Alecks growls gutturally.
Mirajane opens the door to Master Makarov, who is sitting at his desk, looking rather cheery.
"Hello Master, these are people who wish to join Fairy Tail" Mira explains.
"Alright boys, what magic do you all use?" The Sixth Guild Master of Fairy Tail queries
"Requip!" The shortest of the newbies replies,
"Card Magic" Sam answers,
"Shadow Dragonslayer" are the words that comes out of the dark individual that is Alecks.
"Another Dragonslayer?!" Makarov exclaims "...great...more paperwork for me"
"Heard that" Alecks grins cockily and rolls his shoulder.
'God Alecks...there's being perceptive, then there's being a dick...you my friend, fall into the latter category' The only brunet in the room thought.
Mirajane strides in elegantly, the heat rising to Sam's face in-sync with her movements. She is carrying the the guild stamp and Leon lets out an excited giggle.
"Alright, where would you like your mark and in what colour?" The buxom barmaid asks.
"Black, right hand" replies the tallest noiret.
"Lime Green, Neck" Sam answers with a heavy blush, edging on a nosebleed.
"Orange, right forearm" Leon chimes.
Mira then stamps on their marks and they examine them with varying emotions; Leon is giddy and excited, Sam is happy and Alecks really couldn't care less to be perfectly honest.
"Alright, it's time for you to meet the rest of the members!" Makarov cheers as they exit his office and reappear in the main guildhall.
