Heyo Readers, welcome back to another chapter of FAIRIEZ N TAILORZ, I hope ya'll enjoyed the first chapter. Here's the second chapter. Prepare to meet the Fairiez.
"Ooh… fancy," Gajeel said as he and the rest of the gang stood at the gates of the Fairy Glitter guild hall. It looked like some huge hotel with white walls on the exterior. There was a fair amount of vegetation consisting of hedges designed in several shapes as well as a few trees. Above the gates were the words "FAIRY GLITTER" written in solid gold and the guild emblem rest below it.
Straightening out his collar and running a hand over his hair in an effort to straighten it, Gildarts turned to his group, "Now, I want to make it clear to all of you. Don't go about doing the crazy shit you always do in there."
"Why so worked out Boss? We're a gang that does whatever it wants whenever it wants," Natsu asked while putting his hands in his pocket, "considering the magic you have, you usually don't care whether or not we break stuff."
"Rumour has it, old Gildarts over here has a daughter in the guild," Laxus said with a smirk, "He's probably too embarrassed to let his kid have the first impression of him being a deadbeat let alone the leader of a gang of horny bachelors."
"Guess you really do take after the Boss, don'tcha Baby Daddy?" Gray teased Natsu who only shrugged.
"I still don't know which baby you all talk about," the pinkette said blankly.
"Anyway…" the leader diverted the topic, "Now, let's walk in."
"So many girls," Natsu said while literally drooling.
Unbeknownst to them, a figure sat in the corner of the room and had her eyes fixed on the group.
"Cut it out Flame Boner, you're gonna make us look creepy," Gray said without admitting that he also liked what he saw.
"Yep, there you have it. Fiore's best eye candy," Gildarts said while glancing around, "I'll try and look for Master Makarov. You boys entertain yourselves in the meantime." With that, he was off; leaving his gang members free to roam.
"Later loser, I'm gonna see if I can hook up with that cute bar tender over there," Laxus said while leaving his group.
"Excuse me gentlemen, are you in need of a place to sit?" said feminine voice that startled the men. The voice belonged to a petite young woman with short whitish hair styled into a bob. She wore a flared, pink, short strapless dress that had a black belt around it as an accessory.
Noticing that she may have startled the young men before her, she quickly spoke, "S-Sorry for startling you. My name is Lisanna Strauss; a waitress around here. How can I help you?"
"You could help me alright," Gajeel licked his lips causing her to blush and as a result, he was hit on the head by Elfman, "What the heck man?"
"Hey Lisanna," Elfman said, embarrassed by his friend's action.
"Big Brother, I missed you!" she squealed while hugging him and surprising the other boys.
"I missed you too sis," he said as he patted her hair, "I think finding us a seat would be really manly."
"Still as manly as ever I see," she smiled before turning around, "come on, I'll lead you to a table."
Laxus made his way to the bar where a white haired beauty stood tending to some customers. 'She is totally my type. That black dress fits perfectly well on those curves of hers plus the cleavage is just so tempting. Keep it together Laxus, don't mess up like Salamander always does,' his thoughts flowed through his mind as he approached her.
"How may I help you, sir?" her sweet voice gave her the innocent appearance though why she tied up her hair in the front puzzled him.
"W-Well, you can help me get to know you better," he said while looking her up and down, "I'm Laxus, what's your name, baby?"
The maiden before him simply giggled at his flirting attempt, "You know, I'll admit that you're good looking but I think I'll enjoy having you guess what my name could be."
"I don't know, uh Michelle?" Laxus guessed to which she shook her head.
"Maybe it is, maybe it isn't," she smirked before leaning closer to him from her side of the bar and whispered in his ear, "Maybe if you're right, I could give you a little reward."
What she said made his face gain a tint of pink. If the reward was what he thought it was, he wasn't going to give up, "Carla, Lucy, Wendy err Minerva?"
The rest of the Tailorz sat at a table as Lisanna began to take their orders to the bar but took a final glance at Natsu before walking off.
"Seems she has a thing for you Natsu," Happy said from his seat on the table.
"You think she won't mind company in her room?" Natsu asked with steam coming out of his nose.
"Would you quit thinking with your dick and more with your brain," Elfman spat from his seat, "Like I would let you lay your dirty hands on my little sister."
"Is that why you hit me on the head earlier? you're an over protective brother," Gajeel said while still rubbing the bump that had formed on his forehead from the large man's hit.
Before he could respond, a loud bang was heard and a group of men wearing ski masks walked into the building, "Everybody get down, this is a robbery!" one man yelled as screams erupted everywhere alarming the Tailorz.
"Let me deal with those losers, babe, I'll be back," Laxus said to the bar tender who didn't really look bothered at all.
He walked up to the group of men wearing a bored expression on his face and his hands in his pockets, "Okay bastards, which one of you am I pummelling first?"
"Nice, now I get to kick ass," Gray said as he and the rest of the gang walked up behind the Lightning Wizard.
"I was going to do this myself," Laxus said to the ice wizard who just smirked.
"Now that wouldn't be fair, would it?"
"Whatever."
The group of men charged at the gangsters who all looked hyped to fight.
Laxus still looked bored as a few men that attacked him only got electrocuted out cold without even touching him, "Pathetic waste of time."
"Iron Dragon… Roar!" Gajeel said as he sent some burglars flying into Elfman's transformed fist that slammed them to the ground crushing them in the process. "Super Manly Takedown!"
"How about a burglar popsicle?" Gray said as he encased the criminals in ice that ended up being smashed by Lily's sword knocking them out. "They'll be putting ice in more than just their drinks now."
"Fire Dragon Iron Fist!" Natsu said as he took out three of the remaining men and then turned to the two last one who stood shaking at the door, "Come on, I was just getting started."
"You punks just gonna stand there or are we gonna rumble?" Happy said as he hovered above the gang; trying his best to look as tough as possible which obviously failed though the men below him looked fierce.
"Let's get out of here man!" cried one as he bolted out with his friend following.
The guild went wild as they cheered for their saviours. Gildarts broke through the crowd and approached them.
"What happened here? We've just arrived and you're already breaking stuff?" he asked worriedly.
"Chill out Boss, we just took out a group off burglars and saved the babes," Salamander said with a smirk, "Did you find the Master?"
"Nope, I found his assistant though," Gildarts said.
"Where are they?" Gray asked while looking around together with the rest of the group.
"Right here," came a childlike voice. But the boys kept on looking for the source, "Down here!"
"Oh, it's a kid," Natsu said while bending to her height, "Sorry cutie, do you know where the Master's assistant is?" his question made everyone face-palm.
"Open your eyes, genius. The kid is the assistant!" Gray said causing the pinkette to make a sound of realization.
"Follow me," she said while walking off.
The group was led into an office with a pretty modern design. The young girl instructed all of them to sit and wait for the master on the couches.
"How long is this old geezer gonna take? I was working magic with the bartender but now here I am waiting for some old guy," Laxus complained from where he sat.
"That old guy is your grandfather," an elderly voice went, snapping their attention in the direction from which it came.
Their eyes fell on a short old man wearing a black suit with suspenders, "Greetings, Tailorz." He walked towards the group, "Welcome to Fairy Glitter."
"What sissy came up with that dumb name?" Elfman commented causing light chuckles to erupt from the rest of the group.
The old man maintained his welcoming face, "I am Makarov Dreyar; grandfather of this electric moron you see," he said while pointing at Laxus who rolled his eyes.
"If you don't mind, get to the point," Gajeel barked causing Makarov's eyebrow to twitch and the other boys to chuckle.
"Boys are too rude for nothing, that's why most of my mages are female," the master commented before continuing, "Anyway, I invited you all so that I request your help in defeating an enemy. This enemy is extremely powerful and I believe that if you team up with some of my mages, you'll do a great job."
"Where are the girls already?" Natsu interrupted caused Makarov's face to go red with anger.
"Enough of this nonsense!" went an authoritative female voice, "We will not let you keep on disrespecting our master like that."
All heads turned in the direction of the voice and there stood the prettiest faces they had ever seen. Best dressed as well.
"Ah, I'm glad you could all make it in time," the master said in delight, "Gentlemen, I give you Fairy Glitter's strongest team… the Fairiez!" he said as everyone stared at the girls in front of them, "Ladies, introduce yourselves."
"Juvia Lockster is my name," said a pale-skinned blue haired girl wearing a short skin-tight blue dress, "I'm a water mage."
"You can just call me Levy," said a shorter blue-haired girl with a yellow hair ribbon wearing an orange long-sleeved knee-length dress with white edges, "I specialize in Solid Script Magic."
"Cana… Cana Alberone," said a brunette girl wearing a short sleeveless dress with a white lace throw over, "I'm… the… card specialist," she slurred visibly drunk. Gildarts started to stare at her.
"Mirajane Strauss," the white-haired maiden smiled warmly. Especially at Laxus at whom she winked. She wore a long body-fitting black dress, "I'm specialised in Take over magic.
"I'm Lucy Heartfelia," a blonde girl said. She wore a short tight blue dress with a white bow at the chest area, "I'm a celestial spirit mage with ten of the 12 Zodiac spirits."
"Carla is my name. I'm the exceed of the team and Wendy's partner." A white exceed said.
"Wendy Marvel," the kid from earlier said. She wore a green suit with a red scarf draped around her shoulders, I'm the Master's assistant and a Sky Dragon Slayer."
"Erza Scarlet," the scarlet-haired one said. She wore a white dress that was revealing at the top part and short enough for you to almost see her rear. She wore fishnets at her legs, "I am specialized in a lot of combat skills but my magic type is Requip. Also, I'm the leader of the Fariez."
"You must be the great Titania," Gildarts said while extending a hand, "Gildarts Clive; leader of the Tailorz."
"Nice to meet you. I'm aware of your intense power," she responded while shaking his hand and then turned to the other boys, "Aren't you going to introduce yourselves?"
"Laxus Dreyar, Lightning Dragon Slayer," Laxus said while glancing at Mirajane who was still smiling at him, "I'm currently single."
"I'm the Iron Dragon Slayer, Gajeel Redfox. Which one of you ladies am I taking home tonight?" he smirked at Levy who blushed lightly.
"Gray Fullbuster," Gray said while eyeing all the girls, "Master of Ice-Maker magic." He happened to have caught Juvia's attention judging by the hearts in her eyes.
"Elfman Strauss. I'm the manliest man you'll ever meet and I have Take over magic too and I'm Mira's little brother." The term little didn't sit well with everyone but Mira.
"I'm Happy Dragneel and this is my Exceed buddy Pantherlily," Happy said as both exceeds glanced at Carla who didn't seem amused.
Everyone glanced over at Natsu whose face was red and t seemed he had taken off his glasses to get a better view, "Ahem!" Gildarts said while snapping the boy out of his trance.
"O-Oh, I'm Natsu Dragneel; Fire Dragon Slayer," the pinkette said while scratching the back of his head, "Sorry, I got a little distracted there."
When the girls all to a look at Natsu, all but Erza turned away blushing in embarrassment, "How indecent," Carla said while covering Wendy's eyes.
"It seems we've excited you, Natsu," Erza said with an amused expression, "Would you mind putting that away, its distracting."
All the guys then looked at Natsu with Alarm and sweat-dropped at what they saw, "Dude, cover yourself up. That boner's making everyone uncomfortable," Gray alerted.
Taking a closer look at himself, Natsu saw exactly what they were talking about and went to hide himself behind the other guys, "Sorry."
"Great, now that you're acquainted with each other, I believe it's about time you knew about the mission," Makarov said to the group who all nodded in unison, "There has been a rise in the amount of black magic being used all over Fiore."
"Isn't it that black magic is everywhere these days?" Gildarts asked, "It doesn't seem like anything unusual."
"The situation at hand is no ordinary case of black magic. This magic isn't like anything ever recorded in Earth Land. Most have tried to relate it to the Black Wizard; Zeref but-'' Makarov was cut off by Natsu.
"Woah, hold on. Everyone who uses magic is called a wizard. Just because he's black doesn't mean you should point it out. Quit being racist," Natsu said causing everyone to sweat drop.
"Natsu I'm giving you 5 seconds to sit down, shut up and cover that shit up!" Gildarts said causing the pinkette to do exactly as he said.
"Mhm, back to topic," Makarov continued, "None of the magic trails back to Zeref."
"Then this means that someone must have probably created this magic using some sort of lacrima," Levy said while looking at a book.
"My mission is for all of you to find out about this new magic and work together to stop the creator," Makarov explained, "I trust that you will work together well."
"Master, this task doesn't seem all that difficult. The Fairiez could handle this on their own," Erza tried to convince but Makarov didn't give up.
"I believe all of you will be needed. These forces you'll face are nothing you know or are familiar with. That's why assembled a team of Fiore's strongest wizards. I trust that you alone could do this."
"Well… as a gang, we just can't provide our services for free," Gildarts said while rubbing his chin, "We'll need payment for when the job's done. Maybe we could get to spend a night with some of your lovely ladies." The crush wizard said while glancing at the Fairiez.
"Touch any of them and I'll surely punish your paedophilic butt," Makarov warned to which the other man raised his hands in surrender.
"I believe you should be off now. I'd try asking around town for any information for a start. Be gone now."
