Hey everyone and welcome to the fourth chapter of a Slayer's Companion. The poll is now open so vote away. Just know that some of them I have ideas for but some of them I don't. Anyways, three new companion requirements
- Sting's Companion's Weapon must be a katana (once again, design and everything is up to you
- Rogue's companion will need a future form for when he appears with Future Rogue and new magic along with is
- You need to give me three spells for every type of magic the companion uses
Anyways, as always, enjoy the story.
Key:
"Speaking"
'Thinking'
"Magic Attack"
Also Magic Attack
Time and Location
I don't own Fairy Tail or the future OCs. Hiro Mashima owns Fairy Tail while the future OCs will be owned by their respective owners. I only own Skyle and what happens (or a part of it anyways).
July 17th X777, 4 PM, On a train to Magnolia
An hour later, we can see this unique trio on a train on the way to Magnolia. But when they were on the train, they found out Natsu's new weakness. Transportation.
"Oh gods, not this crap again." Skyle said as he facepalmed.
Makarov stared at the pinkette with a look of worry on his face. "Will he be ok?" he asked, worried about the boy.
Skyle sighed as he replied, "He'll be fine. I'm just annoyed that we are at this point now."
"What do you mean?"
"Every dragon slayer shares one common weakness. Literally any form of transportation. At first, they won't feel an affect but after a certain point of training, well…" Skyle then proceeded to point at the boy. Makarov nodded, understanding what he was saying. Then he remembered something.
"Wait, my boy, you said that Natsu here would be glad to join the guild but you never said anything about YOU joining the guild. Did you forget or is there a reason to why you said that?"
Skyle just stared at the old man with an emotionless face. He then smirked while saying,
"Good ear you old coot. I technically am joining the guild because I am connected to Natsu but I'm not physically gonna join the guild. Before you ask what I mean, I am something called a Slayer Companion. A Slayer Companion's job is to look after their slayer, keep them safe and make sure that they are to complete their training. So, in a sense, I am both Natsu's friend and guardian."
Makarov grew a tick mark when Skyle called him an old coot but was intrigued by the new information that he just received. So, he decided to ask the question he wanted to know,
"So, what are you going to do if you aren't going to join the guild?"
Skyle shrugged while saying, "I'll probably travel around for a while in the woods out back and make a house so that we could live in. But I'll still keep in contact with Natsu since we have a telepathic connection."
Makarov only nodded in response. The rest of the train ride went by quietly.

July 17th X777, 5 PM, Fairy Tail Guild
An hour later, the three of them had finally reached the guild. Skyle casually looked at the sign then asked,
"Soooooo, is there a reason why the guild is called Fairy Tail?"
Makarov just grinned while saying,
"Do fairies really have tails? Do they even exist… Like them, this place as an eternal mystery… A never-ending adventure!"
Skyle stared at the guild hall, a few thoughts went through his head.
'A never-ending adventure huh? This is going to be interesting. But what I would like to know is what's up with the immense amount of magical energy that's coming from underneath the building? And where have I heard the name Fairy Tail before?'
He then stared at the building for a few extra then said,
"Okay then. See you soon. Also, Natsu, can you try not to mention me while in the guild. I want that to be a bit of a secret between us for now, ok."
Natsu nodded as Skyle opened a black portal and walked through. Makarov stared and asked the young boy,
"Is that boy normally this emotionless?"
Natsu shook his head and replied,
"No. He is a lot nicer and cares a lot if you get to know him more."
Makarov simply nodded. Then the two went through the doors of the guild. When they entered, there was a regular guild brawl that was happening. Makarov grew a tick mark then shouted,
"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!?"
The brawl immediately stopped. Every member looked over and saw the master before exclaiming in perfect unison,
"Master! Your back!"
Makarov started to let out some of his magical energy when shouting,
"I LEAVE FOR LESS THEN SEVEN HOURS AND ALL OF YOU HAVE ALREADY RUINED MY GUILD!?"
The whole guild went completely white before noticing the small pink haired boy that was standing next to the master.
"Master, who is the pink haired boy standing next to you?" a red-haired girl around the same age as Natsu asked.
Before Makarov could reply, Natsu shouted,
"ITS SALMON! NOT PINK!"
A half-naked boy then stepped up and said,
"That's the same thing pinky. Now go away. This guild doesn't need weaklings like you."
Natsu just looked at him with annoyed eyes.
"I would have listened to you if you actually dressed properly."
The half-naked boy was about to retort when a brunette the same age as the two boys said,
"Grey, your clothes."
The now dubbed Grey looked down and saw that he had once again lost his clothes.
"AHH, NOT AGAIN!"
Meanwhile, Skyle was sitting on the beams of the building calmly observing everything. He huffed while letting out a small smile.
"These next few years will be fun." He said quietly before looking around.
"FIRE DRAGON'S ROAR" Natsu shouted out, destroying the door and sending Gray flying out the building.
Skyle then let out a sigh as he said,
"And there goes the plan of keeping his magic a secret for a while."
He then dropped down enough jewels to pay for the damage with a note that says,
"This should enough money for the guild door and any medical bills for that boy. No need to thank me and like I said before, don't tell anyone about me. Have fun. Sincerely, Skyle."
He looked at Natsu getting to know all the kids that was around his age (besides Gray. He's not back yet). He then took note of the brunette and the red-head. He smiled as he said quietly,
"You already found two people who could be potential mates. You really are like your father Natsu. But seriously, where have I heard the name Fairy Tail before?"
"Maybe from me." A voice said behind him. Skyle turned around to see a young blonde girl with long silky hair that nearly reached her legs in a simple white dress. He then let out a small laugh as he said,
"Of course. Now I remember where I have heard that name before. Geez, my memory is still hazy from that time."
The girl smiled before saying,
"At least you have a physical body now instead of just being a voice without a true presence."
"But now you have passed and seem to be a ghost huh, Mavis."
"Wellllllll…" The now dubbed Mavis said.
Skyle stared before saying,
"You're not actually dead, aren't you?"
Mavis gave him a smile while nodding before saying,
"Here, let me show you"
Skyle watched as the girl flew downstairs for a moment before turning into a shadow and following her.
When they reached the basement, Skyle saw a giant door with the Fairy Tail symbol on it. When they passed through the door, he saw a giant lacrima crystal containing Mavis's naked sleeping body. Skyle immediately looked away covering his eyes. He then said,
"Okay, I didn't need to see that but that explains a lot. And that also explains the abundant amount of magical energy that I am sensing."
"Yup," Mavis said while popping the P. Then she gave him a sad look while asking,
"But now for my question. Why don't you show your face to everyone above and get to know everyone?"
Skyle shook his head while saying,
"I don't feel comfortable doing that yet. I was only comfortable with you since I was just a voice in the wind for that period of time."
Mavis nodded. She then said,
"I wish you luck then. I would like to sometime see the Fairy Tail mark on you in the future just like everyone in the guild."
Skyle smiled while saying, "You did a great job at making that dream a reality. I'll see you soon Mavis."
She smiled when she said, "See you soon Skyle."
And then they split.

In the Companion's realm
Meanwhile, four companions have come out of stasis. They looked around at the now mostly empty realm before one of them asked,
"What… Happened…?"

And that is all for this chapter everybody. Man, who knew writing cliffhangers are so fun. Anyways, I hope you all enjoyed this. The pole is now opened and as you see, I added in Cana and Angel/Sorano for a pairing. BTW, I am not going to make a Natsu x Harem story since I don't really know how to. And these are the only pairings I am comfortable writing about (or even have any idea of what to write about). Also, if anything is wrong with the poll, let me know. Anyways, R&R and I'll see you all next time.
