Hey, guys New chapter! Reason it was up faster than the last is because this was mostly planned out of my head. Mostly originality. Not having to look up the manga, wiki, or episodes to help me this time lol. Unfortunately yes that is what i do considering the beginning of Fairy Tail was so long ago. Even after reading countless stories where they follow canon wise I wouldn't be able to memorize what they did from scene to scene lol.
Anyway yeah, this is 8.7K words again just like last time. Really thought I'd make to at least 10K with what I've written here. Oh well. Need to try harder in the future, but this will be the average it looks like. Anyway, review time! Some of these reviews, I swear you guys might be psychic and going into my thoughts somehow.
Justus80: Thanks for the advice. And DIE DIE Missile Barrage, while it's a cool move, it's Gotenks' move if you had him as your mentor. So unfortunately, he won't be having it.
kvchowe: While i do agree SSJ4 Does look pretty badass considering Toriyama was the one who designed it, Yusuke will not be having it. Otherwise, it'll mess up what I already have planned.
ZombieModBrony: Enjoy!
Elvisfonz23: BINGO! You guessed the move right! Whoop whoop! Only one as well. Hope you'll enjoy this chapter as well!
smarcelsmail:Enjoy!
JensenDaniels12: Thanks! Hope you'll enjoy this one!
Guest (1): Hehe...yep it would be funny, ya know?
diegozea70: Yusuke won't use Kaioken. At all. As for turning into a SSJ, it'll be awhile. The suspense!
Guest Reviewer "saiyan fairy": Are you the one who's psychic? Stop going into my head lol.
So that's about it, anyway i hope you guys enjoy this one.
Onwards!
(3rd Person POV)
It was the next day after the whole Council incident debacle. Yusuke with his normal gray jacket with the black tank top underneath, black pants, and white boots was walking towards the guild. He felt good that he was able to train last night after his dinner with Mira at her house. It was a couple hours before noon, and with a good rest, he looked forward to the job that the barmaid had recommended him.
'I'm getting there...just need to push myself harder. Kinda wish I could also have their fusion as a teacher as well. Wonder what that would've been like…' Yusuke thought back to his training the night before. He reached the guild and opened the doors. Just as he opened them, Gray was starting to walk out.
"Hey Gray, leaving on a job?" Yusuke asked.
"Heh, you could say that. That idiot flame-brain's gone and done something stupid again. I'm just going to get him and Lucy back. I gotta go, if you want to ask what happened you can ask anyone else inside." Gray said. He walked past Yusuke at a brisk pace.
"Huh...already doing something to get himself in trouble eh? Wonder what Lucy had to do with it." Yusuke thought out loud. He walked into the guild with its usual rowdiness. He spotted Makarov sitting at the bar counter again with Mira behind it and walked over there.
"Morning." Yusuke greeted casually.
"Morning Yusuke!" Mira greeted happily.
"Good Morning Boy." Makarov greeted as well.
"So...what happened? I happened to talk to Gray...about Natsu?" The black-haired Saiyan asked. Both the Master and Barmaid sighed deeply at that.
"Happy was seen going upstairs and taking a paper before heading out...and it just so happens to be an S-Class job…" Mira said. Yusuke's eyes widened.
"Okay...that is pretty damn stupid. What the hell is he thinking…?"
"I'm sure it'll be fine since Gray went to go get them back."
"What about Erza? Where is she at?"
"I sent her on a mission that was given to her last night. She left right after while the trains were still running at dusk." Makarov explained.
"Ah, let's hope Gray knocks some sense into Natsu then."
"Anyway Yusuke, are you ready to go?" Mira asked.
"That's why I'm here. Let's head on out."
"Bye Master! We'll be back in the evening!"
"Goodbye you two. Make sure to put in extra effort in your photos Mira! Bwhahahaha!" Makarov laughed out loud.
"Where are those two going?"
"Master said photos? What's that gotta do with Yusuke?!"
"Uwahh! I'm so jealous of him!"
Yusuke and Mira walked out of the guild all ready to head to the station. Yusuke overheard the guild and couldn't help but ask.
"What was Old Man on about?" Mira blushed a bit at his question.
"H-Have you not heard of Sorcerer's Weekly?" She asked timidly.
"Uh...don't think I have. I've traveled but...I didn't have time to take...interest...in it?" Yusuke guessed, given his situation. His tone wasn't noticed by the white-haired maiden as she was a bit excited that she can make an impression on him.
"It's...basically a magazine with a new edition each week. It shows what the guilds in Fiore are up to for people to read out of. And...I happen to represent Fairy Tail by modeling for them!" Mira explained.
"Hmm...what do you do to represent them?"
"Ufufu, if you really haven't seen one of the magazines, then you'll just have to wait and see!" Mira winked at him. He just looked at her questioningly but she just kept walking.
When both arrived at the Magnolia station, an unexpected turn of events caught their attention.
"Ladies and gentlemen. Please be advised that all arrival times have been delayed. I repeat, the train has been delayed. We will inform everyone from the station once they have moved again." An employee announced. Groans of annoyance can be heard from the passengers in the station.
"Oh no...who knows when that'll be...and we have to get to the shoot before the afternoon…" Mira frowned. An idea popped into Yusuke's head.
"Hmm...Mira follow me. I think I can solve our issue." Yusuke said.
"Huh? How so?"
"Don't worry, just come on."
Mira followed Yusuke out of the station and they started to head out of the city, into the forest.
"Yusuke...why are we here?" Mira asked somewhat cautiously. He turned around and grinned at her which made her a bit uneasy.
"Wana fly?" Yusuke asked. Mira was taken back by his question.
"...h-huh? What do you mean by that?" Mira asked.
"I can fly us there. Definitely faster than the train. Just point me in the direction of our destination and we'll be there in no time." Yusuke explained. "I didn't want to attract attention and surprising you by simply picking you up at the station. There's no one here so it should be safe."
"H-How am I going to fly...?" Mira asked, though she had a feeling she already knew the answer. He turned his back on her.
"Just hold on to me and we'll be off."
"O-On...your back?" Mira blushed at this.
"Yeah, how else? Or do you want me to carry you like a bride?" He grinned which only deepened her blush.
"O-Okay...I'm fine behind you…" She went up behind him and he lowered his body a bit. Mira wrapped her arms around his neck tightly. Her face reddened even more at the close contact. Yusuke wrapped a hand her arms, securing her.
"Hold on tight, but don't be afraid alright?" Yusuke reassured.
"Mm. I trust you." Mira said. With that, Yusuke pushed his energy downwards, and slowly floated above the trees out the forest and towards the sky. This caused Mira to let out a small gasp. "W-We're really flying...!"
"Haha, yup! So, where to?"
"That way." Mira pointed to a direction. With a nod, Yusuke flew. The wind blew in both of their faces, their hairs swaying in different directions.
'This is amazing...we're so high up, everything looks so small down below...' Mira thought in awe. But as she was dazed at the scenery below while looking to his side, her hold around Yusuke loosened and she fell.
"AAAHH!" Mira screamed with her eyes closed.
"Shit!" Yusuke cursed. His white aura came to life and went under Mira in a flash. She didn't fall very far as Yusuke extended both his arms and he caught the white-haired maiden safely without any impact, now carrying her bridal style. She was shaking violently and still had her eyes closed.
'Maybe this was a bad idea...' Yusuke thought worriedly.
"Hey...you're safe now. You can open your eyes." Yusuke said reassuringly. She slowly opened them, and blue eyes met black.
"I'm sorry...if I wasn't looking down so much this wouldn't have happened..." She said with sad eyes, tears threatening to come at the corner of her eyes.
"Hey don't worry! I'm your bodyguard! Obviously I wouldn't let anything happen to you!" Yusuke said, trying to cheer her up. She wiped her eyes and smiled brightly at him. "You want to continue flying or head to the ground...?"
"We can keep going like this..." Mira said with a bit of pink on her cheeks. She wrapped around his neck with her arms again, tightly and securely this time. "Let's continue, I still trust you, okay?"
"Alright, off we go then." He nodded. Continuing to tightly hold Mira, they flew off once again to the city where the photoshoot would take place.
"There it is, down there!" Mira said. It was a few minutes later after the incident of Mira falling down. They were above a city that was rather large. She pointed at a building below where she would go to take her photos and they descended down, landing in front of double doors. Yusuke gently placed Mira on the ground.
"Well, that was an exciting trip." Yusuke said sheepishly.
"Ufu, least I was saved by my hero." Mira said with a smile.
The two walked inside the building and they first came up in a room with a reception desk. Mira walked up to the lady receptionist.
"Hello, Mirajane Strauss from Fairy Tail." Mira greeted.
"Oh! Miss Strauss! You're here early! I'm sure the manager was expecting you a bit later. But please! Go on ahead!" The receptionist said.
"Thank you. He's with me, the manager asked me yesterday to bring an escort along in short notice, so he'll be accompanying me." Mira said.
"Of course!"
"Let's go Yusuke, I'm sure my manager wishes to meet with you."
"Sure, let's go." Yusuke said with a nod. He followed Mira into a hallway. After a few turns they came upon another double doored room. She knocked on them a couple of times.
"Come in please!" A voice inside said. Mira opened one of the doors. They saw a woman dressed in a purple business suit, she had oval glasses, and her hair was tied to a bun. "Miss Strauss! Good to see you! I heard the train station in Magnolia was out of function at the moment. I didn't think you'd get here any time soon."
"Thanks to Mister Bodyguard over here, we managed to get here on time." Mira said looking over to Yusuke.
"Well, that matters of little to me at the moment. You can use this time to get yourself ready. I'd like to inform of 'Mister Bodyguard' here of his duties while the shoot takes place." She said.
"I'll see you soon Yusuke. Ufufu." Mira said as she waved at him and headed out the door. He waved back and turned to see the manager again.
"So, I know I gotta protect, how so exactly?" Yusuke asked. The manager propped her glasses up with the lenses shining.
"While we'll be taking photographs, all you have to do is just stand there behind the scenes. I only informed Miss Strauss about needing a bodyguard only because recently there has been a string of strange activities going on here in the city the past couple of days." She explained. "There have been claims of shady people talking about Sorcerer's Weekly and selling off girls. We suspect a dark guild might be planning this. I'm afraid because of a bit of my wordplay, I only said a bodyguard instead of several…"
"Hmm...an entire dark guild...against me eh?" Yusuke thought out loud with his finger and thumb on his chin.
"We can hire several city guar-"
"That won't be necessary. If any trouble comes this way then I'm more than enough to handle it. Trust me. I am from Fairy Tail after all." Yusuke said with a smirk.
"Yes. Yes you are." She chuckled, then had the concern written on her face. "Are...you really sure about this?"
"Don't worry, just have any sort of communication that can take them to custody on standby. That way, if things do go south, then we'll be ready."
"Very well then. Once everything is done, by the end of the day you'll receive your reward. We put you in our care as of now."
"You can count on me!" Yusuke said with a thumbs-up.
The Saiyan didn't know whether he was in Hell, or in Heaven.
"Glorious! Splendid! Astounding!" The photographer exclaimed with each push of a button. Flashes from the camera going off each time a photo was taken of females posing.
It was afternoon now, and the session of photo shooting had started. Yusuke had tried to remain stoic as his duty was being a guard, but failed. Miserably.
"Hi there! We'll be in your care! Make sure to not let anyone take advantage of us!" Several girls giggled as they spotted the black haired teen looking over the studio.
"Uh, hehe, it's...what I'm here for." Yusuke replied.
Mira had yet to come out yet to take her shoot. So far, regular female models had come and gone to strike several poses for the camera.
'Hm. Least it's better than that horned-bastard Ginyu and the rest of his lackeys. Haha, maybe Gohan could pick up a few tricks from these girls as well...Might make his and Videl's reputation the 'Saiya-Hero Duo' more elegant." Yusuke mused to himself. Then again, he doubted they'd care. Saving people in their city takes more priority than silly poses. Just then, his eyes were covered by a pair of soft hands. Being in the guild and at the bar long enough, he sensed that Mira was the one behind him.
"Mira." Yusuke stated.
"Mou, how'd you know?" Mira retracted her hands as he turned around. She pouted a bit at him for guessing right the first time.
"Ah, well, who else would do something like that." Yusuke said as she looked at her. She was currently wearing a white bathrobe that covered her. But some of her cleavage was shown as the bathrobe around her was loosened a bit. The Saiyan blushed a bit and looked to the side. His reddened cheeks were spotted by Mira, and she now had a knowing grin forming on her face.
"So, how's the job going so far Yusuke~?" She asked while bending down just a bit and crossed her arms under her bust.
"Uhm...y'know, everything's going...well I guess..." Yusuke noticed her antics and with widened eyes, he turned around, his blush deepening. Mira simply giggled at his reaction.
"Ah! Miss Strauss! Good to see you again! Please be ready shortly as we'll be calling you up!" The photographer announced.
"Ufufu, be back in a bit Yusuke." Mira said while walking past him. She looked back for a second and winked at him.
"R-Right...hehe…" Yusuke replied back while his blush still present.
She was nearing the photographer as several more models were still continuing to take pictures. When it was her turn, she undid her white bathrobe and revealed her in a two-piece red bikini with pink spots. It wasn't skimpy, but more modest to compliment the white-haired maiden's well-toned beauty through the rest of her body.
Yusuke's eyes widened at the sight, a few seconds later he looked away with his blush returning. He swallowed a lump in his throat and cleared his throat. But he stole a glance as Mira now approached the green screen and started to pose for the camera. Albeit, it was certainly a bit stimulating for the black haired teen. Several models have done the same while he was guarding the studio, but to him, Mira was different. In a good way of course.
'Who knew she'd be this good…flexible as well...' Yusuke shook his head. 'Focus Yusuke! You got a job! Let's see...people inside the building, nothing out of the ordinary. Outside...people walking...wait a minute…'
Yusuke, with his sensory abilities was able to detect a rather large group of people, higher than the average normal person. Some were outside standing still, some walking around the building, and the rest all sitting in or standing in a closed space which he presumed to be inside of a bar or in another building.
'Fifty-four...fifty-five...fifty-six...fifty-seven of them. Are they really trying this hard to get what they want? I can't jump to conclusions yet though...nothing's happened so far. Still, I better keep my mind on them if they advance.' Yusuke thought. Just then Mira walked up to him with her arms once again crossed under her bust and her bathrobe wrapped on her left arm.
"Did you like it?"
"Ah! Uh, you were pretty wonderful!" Yusuke sheepishly said.
"You didn't look?" Mira said, feigning sadness.
"Uhm, uh, I might have peeked at the beginning…" He said while looking away, rubbing his neck.
"Ufufu, we're not quite done yet, several more have to take their photos. After that I'll be with several others to take a group photo. Bear with it until then. okay~?"
"No problem. Just tell me whenever and we'll head out." He said with his usual self again. With that, Mira walked out of the room and back to her changing room. He didn't want to make her or anyone else worried on something that might have been a fluke.
A couple more hours passed by as Yusuke continued to watch over everything. Group photos were being taken now. During that time, he sensed the group that was outside nearby had increased in numbers by a bit. He wanted to hope that they were gathering for a party that was planned for them, but the one's that came had more power than the one's he sensed before.
'There's sixty-one of them in total now...are they really coming here?' Yusuke thought. He was hoping that nothing would still happen as he didn't want to attract too much attention, considering that he doesn't use magic. And someone who doesn't use magic that was able to take out a dark guild was something to talk about. Of course, he would probably only have that problem if others were able to sense if he didn't have any magic power, or that they knew he used Ki.
"Alright girls! You're all up!" The photographer announced. Mira and several other women, who all had stamps to their respective guilds visible on them, came up in a green screen all bunched up together. They started to display their bodies as the photographer told them what to do.
"Perfect! Time to be on the front covers ladies!" He said as he took several photos from different angles. Once he was done, all the girls relaxed and started to spread out. Mira came up to Yusuke once again.
"We're almost done. I'll go change and then we can head back." She said.
"Alright, come find me when you're finished." Yusuke said. She walked out again along with several other girls trailing behind. He sensed outside once more if the group of sixty-one were up to anything. When he did, his eye's widened.
'Shit! Every single one of them is coming towards the building now!' Yusuke thought frantically. He ran out of the studio and barged into the manager's office, who was looking over a stack of papers. The sudden outburst startled her.
"Did something happen?!" She demanded.
"Get the alarms ready! We don't have much time. A bunch of guys are coming here right now!" Yusuke finished and he ran out of the room and neared the reception. He looked over and the lady receptionist who was sitting casually behind the desk. "You're gonna want to head deeper into the building. Things are going to get hectic real quick."
"Is...s-something going to happen?" She said warily while getting out of her chair. He nodded.
"Yeah, now go! I don't want you caught up in anything. Go help your manager and see if she needs anything." With that, she hastily went into the hallways. Yusuke sensed outside once more and narrowed his eyes. He noticed that some of them were starting to spread apart. 'Looks like they're using their numbers to their advantage to surround the building…'
Without a second thought, Yusuke kicked the doors open, breaking them in the process as they crashed into the crowd of dark mages, already injuring some. Everybody stopped in their tracks at the sudden attack. None of them got very far in their plan trying to circle the building. Hardly anyone made it to a corner. The Saiyan walked out of the building and at the same time, a bald, tall, brute man came up. He wore black leather sleeveless vest with nothing underneath, black pants and shoes, and fingerless black gloves.
"Now what was that for buddy? Hurtin' some of my buddies there." The brute man said while pointing his thumb at the back of the crowd.
"Oh I don't know, it's just that there are about sixty of you guys here, wanted to lessen that a bit. I can only assume you punks want something inside here?" Yusuke replied.
"We might be. Who are you? They're pin-up doll?" He said while laughing. The majority behind him did as well. Yusuke's eyes twitched a bit.
"Well, I do happen to be the one guarding this place. State your business. Depending on your answer, you'll either get all of your asses kicked, or your bodies broken." Yusuke said while smirking.
"You think you can take on All, of us?" The brute said while gesturing his arms spread apart, clearly meaning his guild behind him.
"If you had more, I'd still take them all out with ease." Yusuke said, his smirk still present.
Just then, Mira had come running up from inside wearing her usual dress, but staying indoors near the desk to watch over Yusuke observantly but worriedly at the same time. She had heard about what's going on when the manager had told everyone to stay put inside. When Yusuke was mentioned about dealing with the threat she immediately went to see.
'I...I wish I could help...there's so many of them and just one of him...if only…' Mira thought with a sad frown on her face. She didn't expect that a dark guild of that many people would actually come. Maybe only a group of dozen thugs or so with regular weapons. But dark mages were a different story. She knew that he helped out with the whole Eisenwald and Lullaby incident, but she still couldn't help but feel the urge of insecurity.
"Hehehehe, just one little kid won't stop us from having fun with those chicks. Go get 'im men!" The brute said walking back to a small, but a more powerful, group of three. The rest, charged directly at Yusuke. He sighed.
'Well, let's get this over with.' He spread out his legs on the ground, his arms and fists tucked in by his sides, and crouched down a bit.
"Ragh!" In a burst of energy out of him, a slight breeze went outwards. He hopped and stretched out his right leg, and did a wide sideways kick in a counterclockwise direction, sending nearly all the grunts flying away from the building. The remainder that were lucky enough to not get hit were at a daze as the hired bodyguard landed briefly back on the stone ground.
"W-What the hell?!"
"A-A-Already so many of us...got taken out?!"
'So quick...and in one shot too...maybe I was worried over nothing…' Mira thought in relief while still watching wide-eyed. So far, the new Fairy Tail member she had quickly grown to like had yet ceased to impress her.
Yusuke outstretched his right arm, he closed the gap between his thumb and fingers, and aimed his palm towards the rest of the grunts.
"Ha!" Another burst of energy was released towards the rest of the foot soldiers. Thinking they got hit by an invisible force, they were all sent flying away as well, with the rest of the grunts away from the building. Now only the four were left standing, those who Yusuke thought were the top among them, along with the master.
"Kids got some talent I guess. But taking out a few measly nobodies is nothing." One of them said. He had had tall spiky green hair, piercing on his earlobe and nose. He wore a black leather jacket with a black shirt underneath, tan colored pants, and black boots. He had a leather belt that held two scimitars on either side of his legs.
"I wouldn't underestimate him Krueger. He did manage to take them all out in two hits. Whatever this guy used we can't hold back." Another male said. He had black hair that was combed down over his right eye, and his hair reached down at the mid-section of his back. He wore a handkerchief over his nose and mouth, obscuring his lower face. He donned a dark blood red long coat that reached down to his ankles, black pants and black combat boots. No weapons were seen on him.
"Man, you worry too much Zeke. The little babies behind us would collapse if I stared down at them." The one named Krueger said. Zeke narrowed his left shown eye at him.
"Shut the hell up you two, we have a job to finish. And I would like my money after we take all of them." The last of the three said. He had shoulder length, brown, wavy hair. He was shirtless and only wore a bottom part of a white robe. He held a pole staff in his hands with a ring on the top that had chimes on them.
"Whatever Vic. Let's get this over with," Krueger said unsheathing both his scimitars. Vic readied his staff, and Zeke made his hands into fists. "Hope you're ready to die kid, because you picked the wrong people to deal with!"
Krueger ran forward with his arms outstretched, still holding both scimitars in his hands. He brought them both over his head and jumped.
WIND CRAWLER!
The green haired dark wizard forcefully brought both his arms down and a large force of wind in a crescent shape was erupted from the blades and struck the ground, destroying everything in its path towards Yusuke. The Saiyan's aura erupted around him, and he used his energy to negate the incoming attack. Krueger glared at him as he landed back on the ground.
"What the hell…?" Krueger wondered.
"Out of my way." Zeke announced while walking up. His arms and legs started to glow. A moment later he was seen wearing metal gauntlets and greaves. His magic energy rose and the gauntlets and greaves started to have steam coming off of them. Zeke charged at Yusuke while his magic was still rising. He leaped into the air and tucked in his arms and left leg. His gauntlets and greaves glowed red now.
BLAZING COMET!
He struck his whole body down, leaving a streak of steam and red in the air, and dived towards Yusuke. The black haired Saiyan extended his left arm up at the incoming attack. His left hand caught the glowing red right greave, and was unaffected by its heat. Zeke's eyes widened and he jumped off from Yusuke's hand, and backflipped back to the ground. The armored attacker observed his opponents hand and was stunned that there weren't any marks.
"Fine. Then let's try this." Zeke crouched with his left foot back and his right foot forward. He charged his right gauntlet with his magic and more steam started to form around it. His right hand shook violently and he charged forward towards his opponent. He launched his red hot gauntlet at Yusuke, who simply caught it with his left palm once again. Unfazed, Yusuke enclosed his hand on Zeke's fist and moved it away. The dark mage gasped as he was kicked in the stomach back to his other guildmates, skidding sideways on the ground.
"Tch, you didn't fare any better. My turn." Vic said. He closed his eyes and propped his staff vertically on the ground in front of him. His staff and himself glowed a bright yellow aura as he was raising his magic power. When he opened his eyes the ground began to rumble in the area. The stone floor started to break apart and float in mid-air, the stones itself also started to break forming a shape. In the end, there were about a few dozen or so lance-shaped stones aiming at Yusuke and the building behind him. "You've held us long enough. It's time I finish this."
PIERCE!
Vic lifted his staff from the ground and aimed it towards the Saiyan. All of the stone lances began to move one by one towards him. Yusuke stood there with narrowed eyes.
"Yusuke!" Mira shouted frantically as the spears were closing in. Yusuke stood still observing each of the incoming sharpened rubble.
"Haah!" The Saiyan brought out both his hands outwards and immediately started to spray a barrage of Ki blasts colliding with each of the stone lances. Dust was formed from each of the impact and everyone's vision was obscured for some time. The dust settled and everything was back where they began. Vic was seen gritting his teeth while Krueger and Zeke glared at the bodyguard. Yusuke looked around his surroundings to see all the holes from the ground that were used in the attack.
"You're gonna have to pay for all of that y'know. It's basically property damage to the city." Yusuke said pointing to the ground. His casual statement only seemed to further the frustrations of the dark mages. Mira sighed in relief as he made it through in one piece. He was better than she expected, and her curiosity of him only increased as he used an attack that wasn't of magic, but of his own powers that she heard about.
"Damnit! This is getting us nowhere!" Krueger shouted and he ran to charge at Yusuke with his scimitars ready. Zeke and Vic followed shortly after with their own weapons ready.
'Well, they had their chance. I...better finish this off before it actually gets out of hand.' Yusuke thought while staring ahead with a blank expression. He mimicked them, and ran towards them as well. Krueger being the one who went first, came close to Yusuke and charged his magic into his scimitars making them glow dimly with wind surrounding the blade. He slashed diagonally, horizontally and vertically at him with no luck.
TWISTER!
The green-haired wizard was able to connect both of his blades by the bottom of the hilts, leaped back, and began to spin them. Visible torrents of wind spinning cylindrically was headed at Yusuke. The Saiyan caged his hands together in front his torso, the respective fingers from each hand touching each other. Energy was formed inside the cage-like shape inside his hands. He thrusted the relatively small form of Ki by opening up his fingers and thumb while connecting the bottom of both palms together towards the torrent of winds.
LIGHT GRENADE!
With enough Ki small enough to be able to blow away a relatively medium impact of the area around them, the little but bright orb of Ki brushed past the winds with ease and hit Krueger head on. Smoke was formed and his body was sent flying away towards the rest of the grunts. He laid where he landed unmoving but breathing.
Out from the smoke, Zeke came flying through the air with his right leg outstretched. His right greave glowed white hot, and as he was almost right atop of Yusuke, he dived and was determined to axe kick him.
Blue Ki enveloped Yusuke's right fist. The Saiyan pulled his right arm back and closed the little space between him and the red coat wearing mage. Yusuke uppercutted Zeke and the armored wearing dark wizard was sent flying upwards. His body crashed down hard, and he was in the same condition as his green-haired comrade.
A whip of spiked chains was sent towards Yusuke and he back flipped, dodging the surprise attack. The chains retreated to Vic, whose staff was now separated into two with the spiked chains being the connection. At the bottom of his pole was a long bayonet sticking out of it. He spun his bottom staff several times before running up and then throwing it towards Yusuke, who simply rolled his eyes. He moved his head to the left to let the bayonet pass by him before grabbing a hold of the solid section of the pole and pulled his arm fast enough so that Vic followed. The Saiyan crashed his left palm against the dark wizard's face and slammed him into the ground. A crater was formed beneath him and he laid still, just like the other two.
'It's just like with Natsu and Gray all over again…' Mira thought as she watched on in awe.
"So, give up yet buddy?" Yusuke asked the tall brute as he dropped the chained staff next to the recently fallen dark mage.
"Hmph. You'll find that things will be different with me." He said as he uncrossed his arms.
"That's what they all say…" Yusuke muttered as he looked to the side.
"Allow me to finally introduce myself. I am Randy McNaster. Master of The Satyrs! I'll make sure to get rid of you here and now!" Randy charged forward, surprisingly fast for his build. The black haired teen allowed him to come. He hooked back his right arm as he was in front of Yusuke, and punched. The Saiyan leaped back from it a several feet away. Then he heard a rip. Yusuke looked down to see that his jacket in the middle had a large tore to it.
"..." Yusuke frowned deeply at the damage that was done to his clothes.
"My magic allows me to make invisible-like forms of blades from any attack. I'm able to manipulate how sharp it'll be, where the ends meet, and I can move them as if they were chainsaws. I've honed my body greatly to adapt to particular situations." Randy boasted.
"And I, don't care!" Yusuke shouted and pointed to the ripped spot. "This was given to me by a good friend of mine at my guild! Considering how it's so goddamn comfortable, I can only imagine how pricey this was! Now it's ruined! Thanks to you!"
'A good friend…? Ah! it really was nothing Yusuke...I can always get you more…' Mira thought with a slight blush on her cheeks. Randy sweatdropped a bit at Yusuke's outburst.
"You introduced yourself to me and it's only common courtesy I do the same." Yusuke stated, ignoring his jacket for the moment. He thought carefully for the moment of what he was about to say, trying to not let anything weird slip out. "I am Yusuke Yasai, member of the Fairy Tail guild! Temporary guard of those I'm protecting behind me!"
"Fairy Tail…? To only send one of them against us... I guess my guild was a bit careless of being too talkative and underestimated you as well…" Randy uttered. "Nevertheless I will face you here Yusuke! Prepare yourself. The last thing I can likely do is take you out!"
With that, he charged once again at Yusuke who had a slight frown on his face. Randy hooked back his right arm once again, and punched forward. Only difference this time, Yusuke stood still.
'He's not going to evade it?!' Randy thought. His right fist was still moving, but was stopped as it collided with Yusuke's left fist. Randy's eyes widened and he leaped back as pain was shot up to his right arm. He inspected Yusuke as he wasn't bleeding anywhere. 'What?! He's unharmed?!'
'I can feel a large group coming over here...must be the guards or something to clean all of this up…' Yusuke thought while he looked at the direction they were coming from. He looked back to Randy. His eyes were still widened and he gritted his teeth.
"Sorry man, time I end this, because your time behind bars is coming up very shortly." Yusuke said. He phased out from where he stood and appeared instantly in front of Randy. He simply uppercutted him into the air and phased out again. He reappeared above him with both his fists intertwined together and brought it down, slamming his attack on Randy's torso, sending him flying down with a crash. The Saiyan landed firmly back on the ground near the fallen guild master.
The city guards came just as everything ended. They saw that only Yusuke was left standing with bodies lying around everywhere around him in the vicinity. The captain walked up towards him.
"Are these the intruders we were informed about?" He asked.
"Uh, yeah. The guild master is right here," Yusuke said pointing to the unconscious body on the ground. "Called themselves the Satyrs I think. Dark guild by the way."
"Good work Son, impressive too. Were you the only one here?"
"Yeah, just me."
"Amazing...Your name kid?"
"...just a member from Fairy Tail is all that can be said."
"Hmm...very well then. Men! Round em up!"
The soldiers scattered with cuffs and began to go to each dark guild member. Yusuke walked back to the building and he saw Mira standing near the broken entryway.
"That was amazing Yusuke! It looked liked you hardly tried at all!" Mira complimented.
"Thanks, it was nothing," Yusuke said. Quite literally in fact. "I should go inform the manager about this."
"I'll lead you there. She probably won't be in her office at the moment."
They walked back inside the building and reached the studio inside. There, the manager was standing with the receptionist, and models were either pacing or sitting worriedly. The manager saw Mira and Yusuke walk in, and she ran up to them.
"Is it over...?" The manager asked.
"Yup! The guards just came and is currently handling the criminals. Everything should be back to normal soon." Yusuke answered. Everybody perked up at this and started to cheer.
"That's wonderful! I'm so glad that you came along! Please, let me give you your payment. We are all finished for today, so just follow me to my office."
The manager walked out of the room. Mira and Yusuke followed her to her office. When they reached there, the manager was already getting out a stack of Jewels.
"There's a bit more than what I offer, consider it a big thanks for able to take on the bad guys on your own." The manager said as he handed Yusuke the Jewels.
"By how much more exactly?" He asked.
"I added in an additional fifty-thousand Jewels. You don't have to worry about any damage that was done, I'll take care of it. Enjoy it you hear!"
"Thanks, I'll be sure to put it to good use. Ever need some protection, just ask."
"Will do, I'll see you then. Goodbye you two!"
"See ya!" Yusuke said.
"Bye!" Mira waved.
With that, both Fairy Tail members walked out of the building. Outside, the guards are putting the members into carts and riding away. It was nearly evening now, and the sun was starting to set over the horizon.
"Well, today was pretty exciting wasn't it?" Mira asked.
"Yeah, you could say that. Though I'm happy that I finally got money, I'm definitely able to pay my rent for a while now and hold out for the time being." Yusuke said.
"Ufu, we should be on our way back to the guild. Might be rowdy at the moment if Gray brought the others back safely."
Now that she mentioned it, Yusuke did remember that Natsu went and stole an S-Class job. But sensing where the guild was, he wasn't able to detect four specific people. Natsu, Lucy, Happy, and Gray were not at the guild or in Magnolia for that matter.
"Uh...I wouldn't be so sure about that…" Yusuke said as he looked over to the direction of the guild.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"You know I happen to use another type of power right?"
"The night you came back with the others, I asked Erza and Master about how you actually destroyed the Lullaby. Looking at it today, I can only fully believe that you didn't use magic. They called it Ki?"
"Right, part of using my powers is that I'm able to sense energy signatures of people I'm familiar with, or anything that might be out of the ordinary. But I don't feel the others over at the guild, not even in Magnolia at the moment…" She gasped as what Yusuke claimed.
"You mean they're not back yet? Gray wouldn't just let them and go along…"
"You know him well enough than I do. Come on, let's hurry and see what the current situation is." She nodded, and had a look of realization.
"A-Are we going to fly again?"
"Don't want to? We could take the train if they can reach Magnolia at the moment."
Mira shook her head and smiled. "No, I'm willing to. Can...can you carry me again?"
The Saiyan chuckled at her question, and without a second thought or warning, he went behind her and scooped her up behind her knees and shoulders. She gasped at the sudden action but soon relaxed.
"Is this fine with you? Wouldn't want you falling again this morning." Yusuke teased.
"Yup, this is just fine." She said while wrapping her arms around his neck securely.
"Off we go then, people aren't around here because of what happened earlier. It's safe I guess." With that, he started to float and then flew out of the city they were in.
As they flew, Mira was starting to wonder more about the ability Yusuke had. Erza also said that Ki can be learned by anyone if tried hard enough. It does seem to pack a punch with what she saw from him so far, and while she was content being the barmaid and a model for her guild, she wanted to do more. Just like she did in the past. She bit her lip at this, and looked up to the one carrying her.
"Yusuke." Mira called out.
"What's up?"
"Can we stop for a moment?" She asked in a serious tone he never heard from her before.
Yusuke was a little taken back at her request, not being too sure of why she wanted to do so, but stopped nonetheless, high in the sky. The sun was beginning to set to their right.
"I wanted to ask if it was true of what Erza said. Is it true...that anyone is able to learn this Ki that you use?" Mira asked with a hardened gaze.
"Any living being can. It can take time for anyone starting out if they hadn't had some kind of familiarity with combat before though."
"That should make it easy for me then." She said with a slight smirk. Yusuke looked at her with a bit of a shock.
"You can fight?"
"I...use to. Something happened and...I lost my magical power because of it..." She said with a saddened gaze.
"I'm...sorry."
"It's fine...But putting that aside, do you think I can learn it?"
"Sure you can. It should be a bit easier for you then."
"Then can you help me?" She asked with hopeful eyes. Yusuke didn't know what to think of this. He certainly could, and take up what his mentors taught him and use it. But...was it alright for him to do so?
He looked back down at Mira and saw a bit of fire in her eyes. Whatever had happened to her before, he guessed she didn't want to sit on the sidelines anymore. After a moment of pondering, Yusuke looked back down at her.
"I can, but are you willing to follow what I say through the end, with the goal of being able to push yourself?"
"Yes. If I can help out anyone in need when something happens, then definitely." Mira replied almost immediately. He grinned at her determination.
"Alright, we can start our training tomorrow early morning then. I'll fill you in on what you'll need when we get back."
"Thank you Yusuke. It's going to help me very much." She said with a passion.
With that, they both continued to head back to Magnolia, the sun still setting.
Yusuke landed in in front of the closed guild doors and Mira let go of her grasp from him. The sun was nearly out of sight the time they got back. Yusuke went up and opened the doors.
"We're ba-"
"THEY DID WHAT?!" A familiar voice bellowed out inside the guild halls. Everybody inside winced as Erza currently had a dark, eerie aura around her and was talking to Makarov.
"Back…" Yusuke finished futily.
"Yes...it's been a whole day and they've yet to come back." Makarov said to Erza.
"I'm going. I cannot tolerate this kind of behavior a moment longer," She declared. With that she turned her heels towards the door and started to head out. She spotted Yusuke and went over to him. "You're coming with me."
"Wha-Gah!" Yusuke tried to ask but Erza was somehow dragging him by his hood on the jacket with ease. He looked back to see a very pissed off Erza, and turned to see Mira who had a bit of a sad gaze on her. He cupped a hand to the side of his mouth. "We'll start when I get back!"
With that, Erza and Yusuke set out without a moment of rest once again. Mira sighed as she walked back to the guild towards the bar, crestfallen. She was excited to want to fight somehow again. The barmaid hoped that he'd come back very soon with the others.
"I...guess this is about the stolen S-Class job?" Yusuke asked as he and Erza were walking along the street.
"Yes. Anyone who breaks the rules of the guild will be severely punished. I will see to that." Erza stated. He sweatdropped a bit and felt a bit nervous now. "We'll have to walk to Hargeon. The train station is currently closed for the night."
"Walk eh? You know I could fly us there right?" Erza stopped in her tracks.
"That's right..."
"So..."
Yusuke eyed at her questioningly. She fidgeted a bit and bit her lip.
"We are in hurry. So let's go." Erza said walking up to him.
'Why hesitate in the first place...' Yusuke thought.
'Control your thoughts Erza...' The redhead thought with a slight blush. She walked up to him. "Well?"
"O-Okay, alright." Yusuke picked her up in bridal style and floated upwards. 'Where's...that town?"
"South of Magnolia that way, where the sea is." She pointed with a free hand while the other was latching onto the Saiyan. He turned around and started to fly away from Magnolia, heading to Hargeon.
"Down there, Hargeon." Erza announced. The flight wasn't as long as the city where Mira went to her photoshoot, but during that time, the sun had set fully and night time was upon Fiore. "There are the docks, land us over there."
"You sure there are gonna be any ships available at this time?" Yusuke asked.
"If not, I'll make sure of it. We do need one in order to take everybody back. I can't imagine you carrying every single one of us."
"True...I do only have two arms…"
Yusuke arrived above the city and flew down to the docks. People were cleaning up the wooden floors and closing stalls. Some were startled as Yusuke landed right in the middle, and Erza hopped off.
"Let's go." Erza said, and started walking with Yusuke following. It took them a while to actually find a ship with people on it around the port. Said ship was currently rowdy at the moment, while not as loud as Fairy Tail, it was as if they were partying. Erza walked up the plank connecting the ship and port. Yusuke sighed.
"Those people better listen for their own good...I feel sorry for them…" He said with a slight sweatdrop, and walked up, following the redhead.
"Everybody listen up! I request that we borrow this ship temporarily in order for us to reach Galuna Island!" Erza announced. Everybody stopped what they were doing. The Captain of the ship spoke up.
"Who are ye to show ye face and tell us what to do?! And to that cursed island?! You must be outta yer mind girly!"
And that, was the last straw for Erza.
She requipped two swords in both her hands and charged forward. She knocked out everybody in her way. Eventually she caught up to the captain, kicked him to a wall of the ship, and used both swords to pin his shirt.
"You Will, take us to Galuna Island. Am I clear?!" Erza shouted.
"F-F-Fine! Fine! We'll take ye! Just don't kill us!"
"Good. I'm glad we came to an agreement peacefully." She said while nodding contently
Yusuke facepalmed, dragging his hand down his face dramatically. Erza's way of peaceful negotiations are out of control. He was standing on the plank still watching the whole thing, and finally got on board. He walked over to Erza who had finished putting back her swords.
"I got us a ship. Unfortunately, it'll take us some time to get there." Erza said
"I...saw. Ehehe…" Yusuke sheepishly said.
"I've been meaning to ask, what happened to your jacket?" She asked. The mention of it made the black haired teen's eyebrow twitched a bit.
"I was with Mira today and she asked me to be an escort and bodyguard during her photoshoot." While he explained his situation, Erza wondered why she felt some annoyance at the mention of him being with Mira the whole day.
"So, something actually happened at the shoot?"
"An entire dark guild showed up with the intention of taking the girls and selling them off."
"A whole dark guild?!" Erza's eyes widened. Now this, piqued her interest.
"There were a lot of models in the studio today, it could only make sense as to why there were so many."
"You weren't the only one there, were you?"
"Uh...I might have been."
"So you were?"
"Yeah...I managed to take out the whole guild on my own."
"An impressive victory then...congratulations Yusuke."
"Hm, thanks I guess. Not going to say that you don't believe me?"
"After witnessing you fight firsthand a few times, I suppose I could say I have no worries for you."
"Well thanks, I'm touched." He teased. A few minutes passed as the ship sailed forward. Then Erza turned and spoke up.
"Yusuke, I had a few questions regarding your skills."
"Really? Ask away. I'll try to answer the best of my abilities."
"You said, anyone can learn this...correct?"
'Her too?' Yusuke thought. "Yeah, what of it?"
"I wish to learn this as well. If anything similar like Lullaby should arise again, I want to be able to make a difference."
'Yup, her too...hmm…is it...fine? Is teaching both of them good?' Yusuke pondered. But when he looked into Erza's eyes, it was the same look that Mira had. The eyes with a fire of determination. He sighed.
"Alright...now it may not be your strong suit but are you willing to listen what I say when we train?" He asked with narrowed eyes at her.
"Yes. I'll endure what it takes in order to protect the guild and anyone else." Just like with Mira, Erza answered back almost immediately. He smiled at her declaration.
"Well alright then. We can start after we clean this whole mess up."
"Thank you! Then, can I request the first thing to learn?"
"What is it?"
"I want to be able to...fly…freely." She said looking away. He laughed a bit at this.
"Haha...sure, I guess we can start with that first, after I show you how you can manipulate Ki first. Only then, you're able to fly in the air."
"Right." She nodded in determination.
"By the way, you're going to have a partner."
"A...A partner? Who?"
"Mira."
"M-Mirajane is coming as well?!" Erza exclaimed.
"Yeah. Coincidentally, when we were coming back to Magnolia she wanted to learn to use Ki as well. She saw my bout with the dark guild, I can only guess that's why she was inspired." Yusuke explained while looking ahead at the sea.
"I see…"
"It's not a problem is it?"
"No, it's not. If you're able to help both of us then I have no quarrels. In fact, it could be good for Mira."
"How so?"
"It's...not my place to tell unfortunately. You'll have to try and ask her yourself. I don't recommend her brother though. It was a hard time for both of them."
"I see...well, I'll wait then. Wouldn't want to intrude."
"It's appreciated." She said smiling at him. She looked forward again as he did the same.
'Got a lot more on my hands now...well how could I say no to their resolve. I could train them in the morning to the afternoon I guess. Night time I can go and train on my own.' Yusuke thought accordingly. He looked up to the night sky. 'What's going to happen in the future I wonder…'
Boom! Done! So yeah...the Villain OCs...
I'm utter shit at them.
I actually had a bit of trouble coming up with their names and what kind of magic they should use. In the end I opted that the three top people in that made up dark guild had magic energy and used weapon magic amplifying thingys to use. Might be crap I know, but it was the best I could come up with as two of them were inspired from Devil May Cry. The staff thing was kinda my idea, except the whole chain thing I thought of Madarame Ikkaku from Bleach. The master of the Satyrs, it was basically on the spot. You guys got any ideas? Lemme hear em.
Speaking of the fight, some moves were used! I described 5 of them, one of them being Piccolo's Light Grenade. Can you name the other four? I looked back in the game and saw how they were done and described it as best I could. Shout em out if you can see it!
Mira and Erza taking up Yusuke as a mentor. Hey-oh! I figured that if I want to develop more into them, this could be a good way to do so. Hope the execution went well for you guys.
Next chapter, will be the last half of the Galuna Island Arc, so look forward to that.
So I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter! Kinda a first shot in the kinda originality section. Leave a review of your thoughts on this chapter!
Lastly, another big Thank You for those who are liking this so far. You guys rock.
Until then.
