Erza woke up. No, not to an alarm, but to Mirajane calling her non-stop. Erza would have thrown her phone out the window if she wasn't so nice, but she was nice, so she answered the call.
"Hello?" Erza answered with a grumble.
"Erza! Why do you sound so tired? Did I wake you up? You should be up by now!" Mirajane fretted.
"Mira it is 4 in the morning! Did you forget that school starts at 9?"
"Yeah, I know, but I have to make everyone's lunches. And I have to plan for the school festival too! Don't you know that school festivals are always the time when love starts to bloom?!"
"Is that why you're so excited? The ships?"
"Well not just that…"
"Oh, come on, Mira. You know there is no love in our school."
"Yes there is! Did you forget about Gajeel and Levy? And what about Natsu and Lucy? They are perfect together!"
"Did you just say Natsu and Lucy?"
"Yes! It is just perfect! Can't you imagine it?"
"No, I can't."
"I know you can imagine it! You're just not trying hard enough! Oh my, look at the time! I have to make plans for the festival! See you at school!"
"See you."
The call ended and Erza lay in bed. 'Well, I'm already awake. I might as well get ready for the day.'
Erza, as tired as she was, managed to pull herself out of bed. She got ready, but still had plenty of time till she needed to leave. She sat on her bed and pulled out her phone. She read a few online stories and texted her friends that were waking up to pass time. She waited a few more hours and then it was finally time for her to go to school. She headed out the door and locked it, tucking the key back in her purse.
Erza walked to school just thinking about what she was going to do in school. She arrived at school very early, like any normal day when Mirajane calls to wake you up. Mirajane was a busy woman, yet she still managed, even with her two younger siblings. One of them had gone missing, but was found again. It had been a hard time for her, but she still came to the academy with a smile everyday.
'Hmm... I think I should avoid Mirajane. Otherwise I won't live to hear the end of it.'
"Hello Erza! Early as always, I see!"
Erza spun around. It was Mirajane. 'Who was I fooling? You can't avoid Mira.'
"Mira do you have any plans after school today?" Erza asked.
"No, why?" Mirajane questioned. This was the first time she heard that coming from Erza's mouth.
"Good. Do you mind if you join me after school today? I am meeting the gang today afterschool, so why don't you tag along?"
"Sure! Why not?"
The first bell rang.
"Well, I'll see you later. Get to class, you hear me?" Erza said, hoping Mirajane wouldn't get too caught up in her thoughts.
"Don't worry! I'll be fine," Mirajane said, which made Erza worry even more.
As normal the day went on. Erza was early to every class including lunch. Everything was fine and dainty. Then the bell rang and you were allowed to go home. Erza walked to the front of the school and was the first to arrive. She waited a few seconds and Mirajane came. They waited a minute and then Lucy came.
"All right! Let's go!" Lucy said.
The three of them walked to the back of the school. Ezra started mustering up her courage. 'Get it together! You've never met them; they could be complete weaklings!' No... that wasn't true. They made it to the back and Ezra had gathered all her courage. Until she saw the gang. Then all her courage left her in a blink of an eye. She breathed in cold air, was this fear? Lucy walked toward them all confidently with no worry at all. Ezra knew it was her first time, but if Lucy could do it, then the student council president had to as well.
"Hey!" Lucy said as she approached them.
"I see. Cheerful and bubbly as always," Cana said.
"Wow, Cana. You actually don't sound drunk!" Lucy replied.
"Who said I got drunk before?! They're gonna have to deal with me in a drinking contest!" Cana shouted.
"Oh. Who are they?" Natsu asked, appearing behind them.
"OH, YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME SALAMANDER! You seriously don't even know who the people in the student council are? Not to mention the red hair one was sitting near shrimp!" Gajeel replied walking next to Natsu.
"I'm Erza Scarlet, president of the student council. This is Mirajane Strauss. It is a pleasure to meet you, Natsu Dragneel," Erza introduced.
"Hi," Natsu replied rather bluntly.
The two stood in place awkwardly. Erza and Natsu, the two students in charge of the two main groups of Fairy Tail Academy.
"What are you doing here?" Natsu finally asked.
"Nothing much. I was just wondering how the gang is like," Erza replied.
"You know our gang has a name right? It is called Black Fairy."
"That sounds… interesting."
"I know it sounds stupid. Maybe we should have a new name."
"Or you can become a real part of Fairy Tail Academy."
All eyes immediately turned to Erza. 'Shoot.' All eyes turned to Natsu. As unbelievable as it was, the fate of the gang was Natsu's decision.
"Being part of Fairy Tail Academy will do what? We won't be a part of our gang anymore and we can be suspended for breaking the rules. Laxus left us true, but joining Fairy Tail Academy won't give us the benefits the gang does," Natsu replied.
All of the gang sighed. Natsu wasn't stupid this time.
"How about this? If you attend all your classes than you will be able to use this area as a Black Fairy hangout after school," Erza responded.
Natsu looked at the gang. The gang shook their head side to side in disapproval. All this meant for them was to attend classes.
"What if we say no?" Natsu asked.
"Then you will be kicked out of Fairy Tail Academy and being here will be considered trespassing," Erza threatened.
"You can't do that," Natsu challenged.
"Oh, she can and she will," Mirajane responded.
The gang felt the demonic aura coming from Mirajane and Erza, the aura circling them as they shook in fear. All except Natsu. He was not scared at all, nobody knew if that was just because of his braveness or stupidity. Looking at his fellow member's faces he saw their shocked faces. He saw how much this place meant to them. Even though they weren't talking, he could hear their answers swirling into his mind, as they shook their heads up and down quickly.
"I agree," Natsu said finally, the tension lifting off of everyone.
"Can't wait to see you guys in class tomorrow. Just in time for the school festival planning too!" Mirajane responded.
Everyone sighed. Especially the gang. A school festival was the one place where there was security at every corner. It was going to get a lot of getting used to, but at least they were still at their beloved school.
Erza, Mirajane, and Lucy stayed with the gang. They congratulated Juvia who had just joined Black Fairy and had a great time. Soon it was time for the school to be completely locked up. Like any other day, Makarov ushered them out and locked the school. They all went their separate ways. Natsu dropped off Lucy, but other than that everyone else was alone.
Erza went to the bakery called, "Magnolia Bakery." She went inside and the smell of the fresh pastries filled her nose. She ordered a Fantasia strawberry cake. Her mind imagined her eating the marvelous cake. She got her cake and walked out the bakery tempted to eat it right then and there. She fought the temptation and got home. She did her homework and went downstairs to get dinner. For dinner she had ramen with three slices of Fantasia cake. She went upstairs and got ready for bed.
She then lay on her bed and scrolled through her text messages. All she saw was Mirajane updating her on her planning for the school festival. Erza finished reading her texts. She looked up at the ceiling just remembering her day. The past events and the shocked faces of Black Fairy. The way she had been able to make them a real part of Fairy Tail Academy. She closed her eyes and dreamed, enclosed in her bed.
'Yes, that was a wise decision.'
Hello Rainical A/N Readers! (Get it Rainbow and Magic? No?)
I got this up sooner (somewhat)! I know the whole Natsu investigation is stupid, but this is the best way you can learn where Natsu is coming from and to fix a mistake my editor made in the story. I changed my profile a bit, I don't know if you've noticed.
According to WikiHow an author will update more frequently if you review and all that other stuff. Like me, you probably have some author you need to publish more frequently, because they're actually writing a very good story. Here's the WikiHow.
I know it has been a long time since I updated and I'm really truly sorry, but I will be updating in the next few weeks or so.
Thanks to my sister for editing (even though she took so long to do it).
