Chapter 8: Lucy The Newbie
July 3th-X784,Era, Magic Council Headquater, Fiore Kingdom
"Those fools of Fairy Tail did it again! This time, they turn an entire port to a wasteland for men!" One of the magic council member said with his arms crossed.
"Actually, that was Salamander who destroyed a slave ship with everyone on it as the town didn't get any damage" Another member said as the council's eyes widened. During the Magic Council meetings, Fairy Tail was mostly their main topic. They usually brag about their destructive behavior as they destroy towns, villages, and how they're so reckless along with the way they act; which they always put the blame on them when things turn bad. But the only thing that they talk good about the guild, is Team Fallen Fairy, one of the strongest teams in Fairy Tail and Fiore.
"Salamander? Do you mean the Salamander was with his team-mates?" A short little man asked. The council member shook his head.
"Our source said that he was with the Sky Sorceress and their talking cats. Natsu Dragneel fought and destroyed their ship and left the town after that. Bora of Prominence and his crew have been found in the ruins, but heavily injured with two and three degree burning" The council member answered as the other members' faces turned white. They all knew about the reputation of the Fire Dragon Slayer. Natsu was most known for his brutality with the Dark Mages, Light Mages, and other living beings. Natsu and his team of misfits always send their opponents highly injured or half-dead which puts them at odds with Makarov and the other members such as Erza and Gray.
''I don't see what the problem is. Natsu Dragneel took care of a slave dealer without causing any collateral damage to the port. We should be grateful for his professional approach'' Said a beautiful woman known as Ultear Milkovich. She had pale skin with dark purple hair and brown eyes. She has a rather voluptuous figure, and she wore a long revealing dress, sporting a striped pattern.
''But his methods are questionable! We already have Gajeel Redfox and Juvia Lockser from Phantom Lord. And we also have Volkner McStar and Mirajane Strauss. We don't need mages like them from another guild!''
''Let's just leave them. After all, if it wasn't for fools like them, the world would be boring'' A young man with azure hair and a red tattoo above and under his right eye, he dressed himself in elegant yet simple robes; consisting of a long white frock-coat with black stripes across the edges and on the upper part of the arms, a decorated standing collar, large straps connected to decorated buckles closing the inducement on the front over a dark shirt, and matching pants and shoes. He also sported a ring on his right middle finger and usually had the medallion attesting his status as one of the Ten Wizard Saints around his neck, hidden by his jacket's collar.
''As much you're right Siegrain, this is not the time to talk about Fairy Tail. We should talk about the situation in the Desierto Kingdom'' Kyoka said in her human form causing the council members to break their argument while Ultear too chuckles as she stares the green haired woman. It was surprising how easy the green haired Demon infiltrated the Magic Council. Joining the council was one of her ideas that she never thought to use. Her first was to send a human spy, but after some thinking and finding out that almost every members are nothing but greedy elder people with any magic talents, she could seed her plans and have a huge network of knowledge in the continent. Her only obstacles were Siegrain and Ultear. She had spies that follows their movements and she knew the purple haired beauty since she was a member of one the greatest dark guilds in the continent, Grimoire Heart. Siegrain or Jellal was simply just a puppet used by the same woman for her bidding. Her other obstacles were someone she couldn't take it easily.
''You know how to quickly change the conversation Kyoka-sama.'' Kyoka simply smiled as she remembered how easy it was to infiltrate the government easier than she expected. ''More than you know Ultear-san''
"But we need to talk about Desierto, the people are still called for help and support. The Guardian's forces still get stronger everyday. He recruits mages from all over the kingdoms and yet, the missing prince is still alive. If we don't do something, the reputation of the council is in danger" she explained but one council member didn't agree.
"We don't have the resources or the soldiers. We didn't completely heal from the assault of Alvarez three years ago without the intervention of Wizard Saint and Chairman Jarus and the help of Leader of the Witch Coven at Joya and Wizard Saint Akane. We can't waste our time and money on a country that's beyond saving or in the dawn in civil war. We deal with mages and Legal Guilds across the continent and the problem of the royalty does not concern us.'' Michello stated furiously as he hit the floor with the sol of his cane as many council members nodded their heads in agreement.
''It quite foolish to say that, even for you Michello. Holding the position of three seats creates the reason why nobody takes the Magic Council as fools with no balls'' a masculine voice with coldness as everyone in the room turned their head toward the source as their eyes widened at the view.
''Jarus-sama!'' a handsome man suddenly appear in the room in a flash as he simply ignored his follow members and took his seat in front of the Chairman. He was a tall and muscular man between his late twenty and thirties, he had short golden blonde hair; which he usually keeps messy with amber eyes and tan skin. He wears a a formal white coat with white fur around the edges and with the Ten Wizard Saints' symbol on the back, white tunic with gold trimming, black tight pants under black boots. He wears three ring on his finger. Jarus Serafion the Fifth Wizard Saint and the Chairman.
''W-we didn't see you arrive Jarus-sama. I hope that your trip to Joya was relaxing for you?'' Michello asked with nervousness in his tone. The handsome mate didn't reply until suddenly everyone in the room felt a massive amount of magical power from the blonde man. Every member except Kyoka started trembling at the pressure as Jarus finally let go.
''It was fine but this is not the reason of this discussion am I wrong? Member Siegrain, can you tell why I was not informed?'' he asked with a cool tone. The blue haired man was tempted to smirk and change the subject but after the ex-Chairman Crawford Seam took his retreat for heath issues, the direction of the Council took a turn that he didn't like. The new Chairman was younger and less naive than his predecessor which didn't help his plan.
''We are talking about what happened at Hargeon Town. The Fire Mage Natsu Dragneel was there taking out an entire ship of slave traffickers without any collateral damage on the town. Our fellow colleagues found the time to bitching against Fairy Tail. I must say that I think that we only exist to complain about the best guild in Fiore." The man's expression changed a little bit at the mention of the Fire Dragon Slayer.
''Natsu Dragneel huh? Fiore's number one pyromaniac and one of the best mages in the kingdom? I believe that if Natsu Dragneel was here, we'd have nothing to worry about and we should be grateful that mages like him exist in our time.'' One member was confused by the blonde man's words ''What do you mean grateful? Even for a Fairy Tail member, he and his team don't have any value for human lives. They have no consideration or mercy, so why would you want to have a mage like his kind?'' an elder man said. He was a a short, old man with thick light-brown eyebrows and a small toothbrush mustache that reaches halfway to his mouth. He wore a brown long sleeve shirt with black vertical stripes and a black three-spiked hat.
''Yajima-sama, you're trying to say is that they should act like perfect morons, destroying properties and towns which gives a bad reputation not only for their kingdom but also the image of what is a mage because this is what Fairy Tail does. They may be dangerous and violent but they get the job done without destroying any houses, shops or properties. And we talk about dark mages, people who kill, steal, and rape people with no magical powers of any kind of reason. People can have second chances but not of all them can be saved. This is another reason why we need more mages like Team Fallen Fairies and the Phantom Dragons. During the invasion against Alvarez, their forces are bigger, smarter and more powerful than the regular mage in this continent. I was able to push back their forces, but what would happen if they sent one of the Shields here? You must not forgot that any person in the Spriggan can destroy a country alone and the only organization who can challenge them are the Ten Wizard Saints. The people of Ishgar need to be prepared for anything and it's not acting like fools that we will succeed. Understand Yajima-sama?''
''I understand Jarus-sama.'' the blond man sighed and he spoke with a softer tone.
''Natsu Dragneel didn't do anything wrong except helping destroy a important black-market that touched Bosco seven years ago and we should be grateful nobody in the Magic Council had to do something that could ruin the situation. You must forget that this is about the king and queen of this continent who finance everything and the situation about Desierto is to be a priority. So no whining about Fairy Tail anything soon...do I make myself clear?'' They nodded their heads in agreement while the green haired demon was lost in her thoughts as the conversation started to get boring, she thought about a pink haired young man.
'I wonder what Natsu-sama is doing right now?' She said as she thought about the Fire Dragon Slayer. She almost blushed at his Sorcerer Magazine cover.
July 3th-X784, Magnolia Town, Fairy Tail Guild Building, Fiore Kingdom
Natsu sneezed loudly as him, his team and Lucy reached the door of Fairy Tail guild hall; The pink haired young man wondered if someone was talking about him as he suddenly stopped walking.
''Are you okay Natsu-nii?'' Wendy asked as she saw Natsu's body shiver a little bit which never happened since his temperature was above average.
"I'm sure that someone is talking about me or something" The pink haired man replied to the Sky Dragon Slayer and turned to the blond.
"So what do you think...Lucy?" He almost forgot the name of the young blond.
"It's huge! Just like in the magazine" She answered with a big smile.
"Are you sure that you're ready to join Fairy Tail?" He asked as Lucy nodded her head with excitement. The pink haired mage went to the doors and kicked it lazily but the blow was so strong that it shattered the doors. Lucy stared at the mage as he was crazy and insanely strong.
"Why'd you have to break it! You can just use your hands like any
other sane person!" Natsu glance at her like she came from another planet and simply reply.
"Where's the fun in that? I could open up the goddamn door and nobody would notice" Wendy and the flying cats nodded their heads in agreement.
"He's right. You'll understand what he's talking about" Carla added to the young woman who at the moment entered. She could only see chaos everywhere.
"Hey Natsu!" Everyone seem eager to see the pink haired man as they gave some wave except one mage.
"Natsu fight me!" yelled a young adult Gray Fullbuster. Gray barely changed over the last few years; his hair was more spiky and his body is more toned and muscular. The relation between him and Natsu was mostly bad as the two young men made the point that friendship between the two was not possible unless an apocalypse happened. Gray saw the Fire Dragon Slayer as his main objective and source of hate when Natsu went to crush the Ice mage in half.
Strangely for Lucy, he only wore black boxers. Natsu stared lazily at the Ice mage with no interest as by using his right leg, he sent the black haired man flying across the guild.
''Get out of my way trash!" Lucy winced at the cold tone in his voice as Gray crashed against a table near a brown haired young woman.
"Gray your clothes" Cana said with an uncaring tone. Cana changed drastically like the others. She became an incredible stunning tall, young woman with an ample bust and tan skin. She has long, mid-back length brown hair with varying shades of color, shoulder-length strands of hair frame her face, with the left one starting from a prominent, high fringe. Cana has large brown eyes and visibly long possesses a very voluptuous figure, with large breasts and curvy hips, which, over time, steadily became more defined. Her black Fairy Tail stamp is located on the lower left part of her abdomen, right above her standard outfit consists of a light blue bikini top which features a camouflage pattern, a pair of capri pants, with two bands hanging from each leg and a light belt covered in heart motifs loosely tied around the waist. She completes her general outfit by wearing a pair of high-heeled sandals. She also had a pair of metal bracelets adorning her biceps, bearing an incision composed of many "A"s, and three simple, round metal bracelets on her right wrist.
"Ah shit!" the black haired young man yelled at the sudden revelation.
"That's why I don't like men around here. They have no shame" she said, taking another sip of her barrel. Lucy's mouth dropped as she couldn't believe that a woman can drink that much quantity of alcohol as a large shadow walked in the guild.
"Fight me back flame-brain" Natsu simply ignored the Ice mage but replied. "Get some clothes you cheap stripper."
"Yipping in the middle of the day. You're not kids, you know" Elfman said glaring the black haired man. The second Strauss changed over the years. He had grown and had become an extremely large, muscular and tall fictional, Japanese high-school hooligan: his clothing consisted of a dark blue jacket with purplish blue inners, held closed on the front by a line of large buttons, with similar buttons on the sleeves' back and the zip located on the high collar left open, loose pants matching his jacket, held up by a simple belt, and his traditional Japanese long white hair is kept styled upwards in long, wavy spikes, his dark eyes possessed no visible eyebrows and his rectangular, elongated face has a stitched scar running down its right side, crossing his right eye. His black Fairy Tail stamp is located on the left part of his neck. Lucy was afraid of the man large figure, she never someone this tall.
"Oh. Hey Elfman" the expression on Natsu of the tall man changed to a softer face. Then, Lucy turned her head to see a small smile on the Fire Dragon Slayer's face.
"Hey Natsu- " before he could finish his sentence, Elfman was sent flying by an annoyed Gray who glared at the pink haired young man. Elfman clashed against some member resulting a massive brawl in the guild.
''It's so noisy here'' said a male voice. Lucy turned her head toward the source and saw a young man with two women sitting on his lap.
He was a young man of average height, distinguished by his delicate facial features and his orange hair, his hair is kept in a mildly short, spiky cut, with spiky strands covering his forehead, and other, longer ones jutting upwards from the top of his head. His hazel eyes are almost always covered by a pair of azure-tinted sunglasses with a thin frame. He wore a wore a green coat with a wide collar, complete with prominent, spiky, brownish-white fur trimming lining the hood, over a light red shirt covered in many flower-like motifs, black pants and whitish sneakers, each adorned by a pair of light green stripes. Surprisingly, he received a bottle on his forehead.
''Ah! It's Loki, the top ranked mage you want to have as your boyfriend!''
''Loki!'' the orange haired man didn't even flinch as he receive a bruise on his forehead. Then, he put his attention to the two women as he raises one thumb.
''I'm going to give them a piece of my mind just for the both of you'' the two young women had hearts in their eyeballs much to Lucy's disgust who used a marker to crossed his face off in her potential boyfriend list. ''He's definitely out of my list'' she mumbled to herself out loud. "There's not one sane person in here!''
''Look at that, a newcomer who is stupid enough to come to this shit-hole?'' a feminine voice said behind her. When she turned around she saw Mirajane Strauss standing there with a frown on her face. She had her arm crossed and look at the blonde with a suspicious look.
''It's Mirajane Strauss, The Demon in the flesh!'' Lucy shouted only for Mirajane to be confused for a second and then had a small smile on her pale face. Mirajane had become a very beautiful young woman that was extremely curvy, accentuating her voluptuously large breasts. Her outfit was composed of a black corset who showing a bit of her cleavage and flat stomach with a navel piercing, with dark purple sleeves and black arm-guards. A punk skirt with pink, purple skirt with purple studded belt around her waist, black and purple stockings and black combat boots. She also sported a bracelet shaped like a demonic arm around her right wrist, a ring on the same hand's middle finger, and dark nail polish and had most of her hair tied in a high, larger ponytail on the back of her head by a massive dark ribbon.
''A fan I see...Why would someone like you come here to this shit-hole? Also, it's good to see you Wendy'' Lucy was still in awe at the view of her idol as Wendy suddenly appear behind the white haired young woman and hugged the woman's waist to the blonde's surprise.
''This is Lucy-san, our new friend. She wants to join the guild'' Wendy replied as Mirajane took the little bluenette and hugged her with a warm smile. Then she put her glance at the blonde who was starting to become nervous. Meeting one of your idols is a tough experience especially when you meet your idol in the flesh.
''You? Join this guild huh? By looking at you I suppose that you read the article about our guild. Just one question, what do you think about me?'' Lucy blinked as she finally got a hold of herself and grabbed some courage and faced one of the most powerful members in the guild in her eyes.
''I-I think you're really beautiful and source of inspiration for all novice mages like me and I want to be like you!'' she said furiously loudly. The expression of the white haired mage become a large smirk as she put her hands on Lucy's shoulders.
''Looks like you got yourself a mentor blondie and I presume Wendy invited you to our team?'' she asked to the Sky Dragon Slayer who simply smiled and made the peace sign.
''Yup!'' Lucy was so excited, three members of the strongest team already accepted her and her idol became her mentor. She never thought that something like this would happen to her. Her bubble of happinesses was suddenly broken by a naked Gray who was suddenly tackled and sent to the floor.
"This isn't over!" Before he found the one who did this, he realized that he lost his underwear and poor Lucy had to hide her face for the view of the flaccid organ a few inches away from her face.
''Arg!''
''Miss, would you be so kind to lend me your under-'' Gray couldn't finish his sentence as Wendy appear behind his back and sent him flying across the guildhall by giving a solid kick in his balls.
''Arrg!''
''That's for not covering yourself in front of a stranger pervert!'' Lucy's eyes nearly popped from their sockets after seeing the violent side of the cute bluenette. Wendy's face took a softer expression when she turned her head toward the traumatized blonde.
''I'm sorry that you had to see that Lucy-san. But you see, some member have no respect for newcomers. I hope that I didn't traumatize you with my Nut Kick Shatter. I only use it as a last resort'' Wendy explained cutely.
Lucy couldn't believe that someone so nice and cute could be this violent and feel no remorse at her actions. It's like a cute innocent animal who can transform at any pissed moment.
''I had hoped this kind of habit would disappear, but Gray has no shame or manner when it's about women'' Carla said with discouragement although she quite glad that the Sky Dragon Slayer protect another woman from a perverted assault.
''Well this is not a big loss. If that was me, I would've castrated him a long time ago for stripping in front Lisanna'' Mirajane added as Natsu and Happy walked at their side and watched the other Fairy Tail members start to use their magic.
''You guys are so noisy that a lady can't drink in peace'' Cana mumbled while pulling out one of her cards making a green magic circle appear. ''I've had enough out of all of you!''
''Now you've done it!'' Gray who found his boxers, yelled back as he gathered cold energy in his palm.
''WRROOOOOAAHHH!'' Elfman yelled as rocks formed out from nowhere on his entire right arm.
''You guys are so noisy'' Loke grabbed his glowing ring.
''They're going to use magic to fight!'' Lucy yelled hysterically as she use Happy as shield.
''I'm not a meat shield...'' Happy said deadpanned.
''We do something or do we intervene before we get hurt?'' Natsu asked, not really caring if his guild-mates are about to destroy the place again.
''We could but I don't care'' Mirajane shrugged. Before anyone can continued, a giant foot came down in the middle of the room; Lucy looked up in shock and fear as she saw a giant creature standing here.
''THAT'S ENOUGH, YOU FOOLS!'' the giant figure exclaimed, making everyone freeze at the words. The only person relaxed were the members of Team Fallen Fairies.
''He's huge!'' Lucy yelled scared.
''Look like the Master is here'' Wendy said as Lucy turned her head toward the little bluenette when she heard the word 'Master'.
''Master?''
''Huh, a newcomer?''
''Y-Yes'' Makarov return to his normal form and started to walk up toward Lucy who was still in shock.
''Nice to meet you'' he said giving a small wave before jumping up to the railing, hitting his head as he did. He quickly recomposed himself before he stood looking at everyone sternly.
''This is the Guild Master?'' Lucy asked.
''Yeah, this is Makarov Dreyar, the Guild Master of Fairy Tail'' Mirajane replied.
''You have gone and done it again, you bunch of fools!'' he shouted, waving a thick pile of paperwork. "Look at the amount of paperwork the Magic Council has sent to me! This is the biggest pile of complaints we've had yet!''
''First, Gray...'' he started as he read from the list. ''You did a good job cleaning out the smuggling organization, but then you walked around naked in the town and stole a pair of underwear that was being dried!"
''But...wouldn't it be worse if I were naked?'' Gray muttered.
Elfman turned at him, ''Then don't be naked in the first place!'' He said as Makarov sighed before continuing to read the reports.
''Elfman! You assaulted a VIP that you were suppose to be escorting.''
''He said men were all about education'' he complained scratching his cheek; Makarov shook his head slightly at those words.
''Cana, you need to stop buying alcohol and then charging it to the council! The recent charge was about fifteen barrels!''
''Damn, they found out'' she said.
''Mirajane! You put the son of a mayor in coma with multiple fractures and you almost killed the mayor of Tully Town!''
''Those guys don't understand the meaning of no and they never stop drooling at my ass, so I give them a beating they won't forget'' Mirajane said with pride.
''Maybe if you didn't pose for Fiore's Sorcerer Weekly, perverts will stop staring at your ass'' Natsu said deadpanning as she looked at him with a look that said "are you kidding me''.
''We both know that you still stare at my ass anyway and you shouldn't talk mister July'' she stated with a smirk when Natsu broke the glance, hiding a small amount of blush. Mirajane made the peace sign with a dark smirk. 'Works every time!'
Makarov continued down the list, naming many mages in the building who avoided looking at Makarov as soon he said their names. The old man started to tremble as he finished the list, which was crushed by Makarov's tight grip.
''You brats, the Council is angry with me all the time!'' Makarov groaned, causing everyone except Natsu and Mirajane to wince slightly. ''However... Screw the Council!'' He said with a smirk as the pile of paper turned to flame for a minute and made Lucy look at him in surprise. He tossed the flames to Natsu who caught it with his hand, without even looking and devoured it in silence. Everyone was silence as the Guild Master spoke, all of them paying complete attention to his words.
''Now remember, any power that surpasses reason still comes from reason. Magic is not some kind of miraculous power; it's a talent that only works when the flow of energy in the natural world is in perfect sync. To perform magic, one must have a strong mind and the ability to focus. It should take over your being and pour out of your soul. If all we worry is about following the rules, then our magic will never progress, Don't let those idiots on the council scare you. Do what you think is right! Because that's what makes the Fairy Tail Guild number one!'' He finished by making a symbol with his right hand.
The members of the guild with the exception of Team Fallen Fairies and Lucy followed the old man and made the same symbol. Gary and Elfman were cheering loudly, an annoyed Carla frowned at the noise of her guild mates while a smirking Cana and Loke were smiling with their female friends. Lucy smiled at the view as she finally reach her dream.
''There you go! You're an officially member of Fairy Tail'' Lisanna said cheerfully as she removed the magic stamp from Lucy's hand, revealing a pink guild mark. Lucy smiled as she stared at the mark before turning to the next table where Natsu and his team was sitting.
''Hey Natsu, look, Mirajane's sister Lisanna just gave me the Fairy Tail mark'' Lucy grinned as she showed the team her new mark. Natsu stay silent for a couple of seconds as he tried to find a way to not be rude in front of Lucy.
''That's great, welcome to the guild L-Lucy'' he almost forgot her name.
''Congratulation Lucy-san'' Wendy added happily as she returned to her conversation with Carla.
''Yeah Luigi'' Happy said with a smirk.
''IT'S LUCY! YOU DAMN CAT!'' she corrected.
''A feisty one huh? I like your attitude blondie'' Mirajane smirking as Lucy gave a bright smile as she place her other hand on top of the mark.
''So Natsu,'' they turned their head to see a few men staring at Lucy with hearts in their eyes, the one who spoke was smoking a pipe.
''Where'd you find such cute girls?'' he asked causing Natsu and Mirajane to frown.
''You're married and have a daughter. You should be an example for her rather than to try cheating on your wife. If you're not happy, just divorce then maybe someone else will be a better father than you. Maybe she would come here without being humiliated by being the child of a failure'' Natsu replied coldly as Wakaba breaks the hearts in his eyes and tried to glare at the Fire Dragon Slayer but the glare of the pink haired man was stronger. Feeling that he was losing, he lowered his head in shame. Lucy was surprised by the events but said nothing since she was new but glad at the Flame Devil Slayer's actions.
''Since you're new member Lucy, you need to learn some rules and respond to some of our questions. Before becoming our official member, we need to see what are you capable of. We can start right now but since Levy and Volkner are not here, we're going to see what you're capable of doing...by the way where are those three?'' Natsu asked as he couldn't find the scent of Volkner, Levy or Orion.
''Levy, Orion and Sparkling Asshole decided to take a job at the last moment. Apparently, she found a job about someone who was robbed of his book by a duke. The reward is two million jewels'' Mirajane explained.
''That's Levy that we know. Alway choosing a job which is related to books" Happy stated as he took bite of his salmon.
''Is my dad back yet?'' They looked to the side to see a young boy with dark purple hair with various strands, giving his hair an overall more spiked look. He wore a long, dark, sleeveless open jacket with lighter-colored edges, revealing part of his muscular chest and held closed around his waist by a light sash, tied by a knot on his left hip. His legs are covered by loose, light-colored pants reaching down below his knees, paired with low, dark laced boots. Around his neck is a light scarf adorned by a wavy motif. His forearms are wrapped in bandages.
''You're starting to get on on my nerves Romeo. You're a wizard's son; have some faith in your father and wait patiently for him'' Makarov said.
''But old man!'' he snapped at the elder man. ''He said he would only be gone for three days, but it's already been two weeks.''
''If I'm correct, he took the mission on Mt. Hakobe.'' Makarov said as he recalled Macao showing his job he was taking.
''That's right, so why do't you have someone go look for him?'' Romeo asked as his anger started to build up and gave a harsh glare toward the guild master.
''Your father is a wizard of Fairy Tail like everyone here, and Fairy Tail mages can take care of themselves! Why don't you go home, eat some cookies, drink some milk and wait for him to come back!'' Makarov yelled as he was getting agitated. However, Romeo quickly jumped in front of him and punched him square in the jaw.
''My dad is a slacker who does nothing but drinking and dating girls younger than him and you say that he can take care of himself!? He only takes the easy ones and I thought that Fairy Tail mages are suppose to be the strongest one in Fiore? What a joke! I should join Phantom Lord instead'' he yelled darkly as the young boy leaves the guild hall.
''That was rough to watch'' Lucy said as the discussion finished. Mirajane simply sighed and fixed her black finger nails.
''I don't really care what happens here but even the old man does nothing, he cares about the issue but he doesn't show a good example to the younger ones. But a kid shouldn't be placed in this position especially if you only had one parent alive'' she explained as she was annoyed by something. Natsu who didn't say anything, stood up and walked toward the guild doors.
''Mira! Don't wait for me, I have do something important and that will take a while. In my absence, you take care of Lucy'' Natsu said he continued walking to the front door with Happy following after him; he could hear Wendy calling out him.
''Be careful Natsu-nii!'' He nodded with a little smile and walked out the door. Makarov watched the pink haired mage walked out and sighed.
''You do realize he's going to go to Mt Hakobe to save Macao, right master?'' Nab said as he moved over the bar.
''When will he grow up?'' a bucked toothed member said. "Going after Macao will do nothing but hurt the guy's pride."
''Compared to him you two are toddlers'' Mirajane said with a dark glare at Nab and the bucked tooth member. ''Both of you don't have the balls to face him without moaning like a bunch of little bitches. Do I need to remember what Natsu did when someone tried to touch my ass'' both men flinch at the horrible memory.
''Why'd Natsu act like that?'' Lucy asked as she stared at the doors. Mirajane didn't answer as Wendy was frowning at her plate until she raised her head toward the blond.
''Well, this is a reason why Natsu-nii acts like that. Me and Natsu-nii were abandoned by our respective parents seven years ago, no goodbye or notes and Natsu-nii didn't take very well. Even he doesn't show it, Natsu-nii can't stand seeing someone without any parents'' Wendy explained.
''I had no idea. But why'd they never go back for both of you. A parent should never leave their children'' Lucy stated as she was quite affected by the knowledge.
''We never met our biological parents. Igneel-teme and my..mother found us and raised us like their own hatchings. But seven years ago, they suddenly vanished without a trace. Natsu-nii tried to find Igneel but quickly gave up when he met someone who said that Dragons are completely gone at Earthland's surface.''
''D-Dragon?...Don't tell me that you and Natsu were raised by Dragons?'' Lucy fell off her seat in shock at those words and quickly got up''
"How this is possible?'' she asked as the Sky Dragon Slayer looked with a confused look on her cute face.
''What's wrong with being raised by a Dragon?'' she said like this is a normal thing in the world.
''You can't expect that everyone will found it normal that an orphan was raised by a legendary creature that nobody has seen in centuries'' Carla said. She didn't believe it at first but after seeing The Sky Temple, she quickly changed her point of view although the thought that a young child being abandoned in the middle of nowhere didn't make sense since a child of 4 or 5 years old cannot survive alone.
''Children raised and to only be abandoned by a Dragon...I wonder if Natsu still misses his dad'' she thought as the white haired S-Class mage tried to attract her attention. "What is it Mira-san?''
''Our time here is over. Time to do the serious stuff. Natsu put me in charge. We will all see what you're capable of and unlike him who refrains himself to not demolish your self-esteem. I have no limits'' Mirajane explained with a smirk similar to shark. Lucy suddenly shivered for some reason as she started to wonder if it was a mistake to join Fairy Tail.
''You will b-be easy with me right?''
The white haired mage replied covered with purple aura. "Me? Of course! I will be very easy with you'' the tone of her voice didn't make the Celestial Spirit mage feel any better.
''I guess I have to play the nurse again'' Wendy muttered to herself as she finished her plate.
July 3th-X784, Magnolia Town
''That mission was easier than I expected. But this guy was even worse than Ichiya of Blue Pegasus, and I didn't mention that gigantic maid bodyguard'' Orion said out loud as he was in Levy's arms. "Two million for a book? This is a waste of my talent. How can I show how awesome I am if there is nothing interesting to do'' a bored Volkner asked.
''Don't be like that Volkner. We also got this rare gold key. Natsu can easily sell this for a great price'' Levy replied trying to cheer up the mood of the blonde Dragon Slayer who stared at the golden key that they stoled from the perverted duke. The key was gold but has a strange shape, the center of the bow is white, stamped with the crest of the Maiden, colored in purple. Surrounding the heart-shaped center on either side are simple curves, spiraling on the top and bottom. The blade's end is shaped like a heart.
''Or maybe find information to double the price'' the other members of Team Fallen Fairies also changed over the last years. Volkner has become taller, reaching five feet eleven inches and his body is toned and muscular. His golden spiky hair become messier than ever and his forehead was completely covered with bangs. He wears a dark blue hooded coat with white fur trimming with pale blue lightning bolt on the sleeves and a studded belt at the coat waist. A black v-neck shirt with a lightning shape necklace, striped belt and dark blue pants under black boots and a long studded belt around his left leg. Levy developed a more slender build who stands at a rather below-average height. Her shoulder-length blue hair, which has eyebrow-length bangs, is normally tied up with a black bandanna around her head with a wavy, wild look, locks hanging down the sides of her face. Her outfit was composed of a orange sleeveless dress with her arms covered with black fingerless gloves reaching up to her mid-bicep and black leggings with a pair of brown boots. She has three large dark scars on her right shoulder.
Suddenly, something vibrate in the little bluenette's bag as she took a strange device in her hand. The device had a rectangular shape with screen made of glass. On the device an image of a Dragon Head in flame with the letters ''Flaming DragonX''
''Natsu is calling!'' she touched the screen and put the device on her ear.
''Hey Natsu!''
''Hey Levy. Have you finished the mission?''
''Yeah it was quite easy and we even got a golden key with two million jewel in reward. We're in Magnolia Town and we've almost reached Fairy Tail.''
''That will not be necessary. Mira, Carla and Wendy are waiting for you in the training filed with our newest member.''
''What! A new member?''
''Exactly, and I want you and Volkner to help get her comfortable and explain the rules of the teams.''
''But wait, you're not in town?''
''No, I've got to do something and I need to see Tivan for some information about her magic. Celestial Spirit Magic. This is something that I never heard of and I need the force and the weakness to figured how we could bring her to her full potential.''
''Alright, don't forget to bring a book that talks about it.''
''Sure, see you later Levy'' Natsu broke the connection as Levy put her device in her bag.
''So we got a new member?'' Volkner asked who listened in on the conversation of the Fire Dragon Slayer and Solid Script mage.
''Pretty much. He said we need to go to the training field and explain the rules'' Levy replied.
''I wonder how Natsu can easily accept a stranger like that'' Orion asked.
''Beats me, maybe the reason he said yes is because of Wendy's judgment. I trust Wendy's judgment but also Natsu's judgment and if he thinks the person is worthy to be our partner, we should give the benefit of the doubt. After all, any person is better than Gray'' she said darkly as she grabbed her shoulder with the dark scars.
"I agree.'' Orion stay silent as he could't help but feels the negative emotions of his two teammates as the relation with the molding mage is quite deteriorate.
Crocus, Gates of Hell
''Well, well if it isn't our favorite pyromaniac and blue demon cat of Fiore!'' a bald black man yelled shouted loudly behind the bar. He wore a black trench coat with a black shirt, black sunglasses with a golden necklace, large black bely with green pants under black combat boots. He had jewelry on his finger and hands and a large black tribal tattoo on the right side of his face.
''Rodin, my favorite Demon weapons dealer, bartender and who makes the best weapons in the continent! '' the dark skinned man simply smirked as he took a glass filled with alcohol and gave it to the Fire Dragon Slayer who put Macao at his side.
''Everything is starting to get dull since the Alvarez Empire tried to invade Ishgar by Fiore and Iceberg but apparently, the Magic Council got a new younger Chairman. I don't know his name but what the hell? You come with an unconscious man in my bar...human in fact?'' Natsu takes the drink as Happy sat on the bar and started to eat a plate of baked meat.
''This is a member of my guild. I've to find him to not let a thirteen years old boy become an orphan because of his lack of skills. That guy fell under nineteen Vulcan. I could understand after one hundred but nineteen! Mages of today are such a disappointment'' he took another sip of his drink as the black skinned Demon sweat-dropped at his declaration but was agreeing with his statement.
''What do you expect in this peaceful time? This is no challenge or a massive disaster that could destroy the entire world...at least in this dimension. So why did you and Hellcat come here earlier? You here for business, or pleasure? Either way, I'll hook you up'' Rodin asked. Natsu finished his drink and said.
''We have a new member in our team and we know nothing about her magic. So I need to see Tivan if he has any information about Celestial Spirit Magic and hopefully doesn't waste my time.''
''Celestial Spirit Magic huh? It's been ages since I've heard that name. There are more than eighty keys in the world and you better hope that your new member is not a lazy ass motherfucker or you have to grind to find those keys.''
''She is'' Happy said as Natsu hit the bar with his hand as he sighed. "What have I done.''
''Don't be like that. At least tell me if she's cute?''
''Damn right. Her name is Lucy. She's that kind of cute that you want to keep to yourself and don't let anybody touch it. She also had this pair of boob larger than Lilith'' Natsu show the size of Lucy's boob as someone dropped a glass.
''Don't fuck with me Dragneel. Nobody can have the massive tits of the Inferno Succubus let alone a human!'' Natsu shocked his head in disagreement.
''Nope, natural and everything. I'm especially surprised that she doesn't have any back problems."
''Or finding bra at her size'' Happy added.
''I still don't believe you, but both of you wait here. I will call this collector freak and let nobody touch my stuff. I will bite their ass off'' Natsu nodded his head as he served himself and Happy put another portion of meat on his plate. Then, he looked at the surroundings of the bar as he didn't see Enzo, one of the regular customer of the Gates of Hell but see a fiery red haired girl attracted his attention. He saw the woman who was drinking alone trying to ignore a bunch of noisy men who tried to attract her attention as they all have a bit of lust in their eyes. Natsu had a better look of the red head. She looked between eighteen and nineteen and stood over 5'9 with wavy mid back length dark red hair. She had a vertical scar over her right eye, which both were a pretty jade green. The young woman was quite beautiful, with nice supple lips that had lip gloss. She wore a black tight jacket with a red top which showed a large amount of cleavage. Black leather pants that attract the attention of her plump ass and brown boots. Usually, the Fire Dragon Slayer would get back to his business and ignore the stunning woman but he didn't know why this was. He had a strange feeling with this woman.
''I've never seen you around'' he said with a neutral tone that surprised the red head deep in her thoughts as she tried to ignore the obnoxious men.
''A woman can't have a drink in peace without being seduced by the first guy who tries to say that she's the one'' she asked dryly as Natsu snorted at the tone.
''I find it more curious when a woman goes to a bar reserved for a special kind of people. Especially when most of the clients are not human'' he stated with the same tone. The red haired woman raises an eyebrow as she takes sip on her drink and return her attention to the pink haired young man who didn't move it.
''I really found it odd to see the infamous Salamander of Fairy Tail in this kind of place but not surprised to see you with your feline partner afters all the rumors said about you two. I'm sure your guild master will have a heart attack if he sees you in that kind of environment'' she explained with a smirk that Natsu return as well.
''Or seeing a Garou Knight in the daylight'' the red haired woman's eyes widened by the declaration of the Fairy Tail member.
''How did you know?'' she asked with threatening tone. A tone that promised to take down any target in her way.
''Don't worry, I'm not into those thing anymore and you can say that I've ears everywhere'' he replied as the red haired woman seem relaxed and then stared at the Fire Dragon Slayer with a curious glance.
''I guess you are a bit too dark for a member of Fairy Tail. By looking at you and your blue cat, your personality is more suited for a guild like Phantom Lord or a Dark Guild which I even wonder if you can beat me in drinking competition'' she asked with a challenging tone as Natsu was tempted but had things to do.
''I would, but my team and a teenage boy are waiting for me. Maybe another time miss...'' he never asked her name.
''Katarina Du Couteau, nice to meet you'' she said with a small smirk.
''Natsu Dragneel nice to meet you as well'' Natsu was about to shake her hand but he feels some weight on his right shoulder. He turns his head to see a large man with a dark glare that could kill him multiple times.
''Can I help you dude?'' he said annoyed. The man reeks of alcohol; worse than Cana.
''Who the hell gave you the right to talk to this chick right in front of me. I was about to get this woman to have a wonderful time!'' the man yelled annoyed. Natsu was about to replied but Happy spoke first.
''A good time you say. I don't know what you mean. A good time with a man who reeks like the feet of his grandma and probably only last three seconds in his best shape?'' the words of Happy made the large exploded as his crew tried to calm him down.
''What did you say you stupid blue shit! Don't you know who I am!''
''A man who can have a boner without masturbating with himself with a unicorn plush in his grandmother's basement'' Natsu replied in the same tone of his feline partner as Katarina almost choked on her drink.
''You're going to regret this punk! Time to show to this babe how a real man acts and gives the punishment to morons who insult the great leader of Death's Head Caucus!'' the three of them are surrounded by the large man's crew who show their weapons composed of twelve men. With knives all the way to brass knuckles.
''You mean hiding the fact that you also have erectile dysfunction and you popped your cousin's cherry in your graduation by accident'' Natsu said like he was talking to the weather. The red haired woman couldn't help herself but chuckles when she saw the purple face of the man who was about to explode.
''You're going to regret this with your blood brat.''
''This is not what your mum would say to me when I reach a secret place that you dad could with his baby dick. By the way, did you find a condom at your size? If not, you can alway ask gnomes to give you some. Your size is micro right'' the man couldn't stand it anymore. Blinded by his anger, he tried to hit Natsu in his face as Natsu easily dodged the blow and and he took the large man's arm and twisted it to the pint everyone in the bar could hear a bone snap in the pressure and then, threw the man across the room as he crashed against a table.
The crew froze at the scene they just witnessed as their leader was thrown like a broken object. They all turned to the smirking Fire Dragon Slayer who waved his hand for more of a challenge.
''So, who's next?'' In the blink of an eye, one member of the crew runs at him with a battle cry with a knife in his hand only to be stopped by Natsu who simply grabbed him by his collar only to be smashed on a table and fall unconscious. Then Natsu quickly rushed against two men and crushed their forearms with his fist.
Suddenly a man charged at him with in a incredible speed only to be thrown away by the Fairy Tail mage against a wall. Then three men quickly started to attack him with their knifes but before they started moving. Natsu runs at their direction and at the same time grabs the head of one of them and jumps at the moment he saw a table and crashed the man's head against it only to put two hands on another's neck in his arms and break them in fraction of second. The bodies fell to the ground as four men charged at in the same time. Natsu dodged with ease, dodging the fatal blows by striking their faces and lend a solid kick on their ribs. The last man started to shake up to his legs at the view of his fallen comrades. Natsu walked toward him with a grin that promised a lot of pain but was beat to it by the stunning red haired girl who smacked the last member of the crew out as his head hit the floor like a predator who jumped at his prey.
''I had it!''
''Sorry but after seeing you beating those guys that look so fun that I couldn't resist myself. But fighting without using magic I'm very impressed. Are you sure you're in the good place? You can have a spot in the Garou Knights without any problem'' she suggested.
''Well, I guess I could but where's the fun if you're doing this for a job rather than fun'' Natsu explained as shrugged his shoulders.
''And the fact that discretion is not really his thing. His thing is more like being a walking disaster'' Happy added which Natsu agreed to.
Then, a young woman came into the bar only to witness the aftermath. She was certainly not happy by the damages caused by the pink haired man but her expression became a shy one when she put her purple eyes on the Fire Dragon Slayer.
''M-Master is ready to see you Mister Dragneel-sama'' she said shyly as Natsu took the unconscious Macao on his shoulder and Happy flying at his side. Before he left the room. He turned his head toward the red haired woman.
''Well it was nice knowing you Katarina, hoping to see a nice time in different circumstances although I don't regret beating the shit out of those asshole. If Rodin comes back, say to him that he could sell them for a good price in the black market at Bosco. See you around'' he waved his hand as he followed the purple eyed woman.
''See you next time Knife Lady'' Happy said as he followed his Slaying mage partner, leaving the red haired beauty with the unconscious or dead dark mages.
''Natsu Dragneel...He's more taller and deadly than I thought. Maybe it was a good choice to leave this kingdom. No wonder why Lilith spoke so highly on him.''
''Well, well. Two pieces of a rare living collection in my special room. Must be my lucky day'' said a masculine voice at the moment that Natsu, Happy and the purple eyed woman entered in a room filled with collections of fauna, relics and species in the entire continent. In the middle of a room, a tall man was standing with flat-screens which are projected into the air.
''No way in this life time or the another'' Natsu replied simply as he felt uneasy with the man in front of him. Tivan or The Collector was a pale skinned young man of fairly handsome looks, possessing short, messy white hair with bangs, in addition to blue eyes with black scleras.
He is always seen dressing in an all-black business suit, with some small shades of purple, and wearing a white, completely colorless tie. The Fire Dragon Slayer met the men during his travels with Lilith as she explained that he would never strike a deal with the man or he would find huge consequences.
''Then, how I can help one of my rarest and young customers?'' he didn't bother to move his head to talk with the Fairy Tail mage.
''I need information about a certain magic'' he said.
''A magic you say. You want to get rid of your motion sickness or learning to steal panties without being saw? Or perhaps, you want a Dragon Lacrima. I have a dozen of them'' Natsu shook his head although he was quite shocked by the existence of Dragon Lacrima.
''I was talking about Celestial Spirit Magic. Did you even hear about this kind of magic?'' Tivan suddenly stops moving as he finally moved his head toward the Dragon Slayer. The glance made the pink haired man unconformable but he didn't show it.
''How did you learn that?''
''We met a Celestial Spirit user yesterday and her name is Lucy Heartfilia'' Happy added as the white haired man sighed as he rubbed his chin.
''My young friends, you've discovered a mage who has a magic so rare that we can classify it like Lost Magic. Even rarer than Dragon and Devil Slayer Magic."
''Are you kidding me! Rarer than Dragon Slayer Magic?'' Natsu asked with annoyance. The Collector didn't say anything as he opened his left hand and suddenly five keys appeared from nowhere and fell in his hand.
''You have no idea young Fire Dragon. It's seen as nothing but this magic is quite dangerous especially if the user is quite powerful. I could explain to both of you but it will take too much time and you wasting my time. I was looking for a rare artifact that was four centuries old, but since you and your team have been good customers for the last six years, I give you those keys as a gift but don't forget little Dragon. You still owe me for that tome of Fire Devil Slayer Magic. It would be bad if someone let the word that you and your team double crossed Fairy Tail with-'' he was interrupted by the Flame Devil Dragon Slayer.
''I didn't forget. I just need more time and time is something that you and me have in plenty'' Natsu said glaring at the older man who didn't seem affected by the glare and simply waved his hand and returned to his occupation.
''This is something that we can agree on. I hope that I can meet your teammate in your next meeting. Karin can you take a book for Miss McGarden and show them the way of the exit. You would be a dear.''
''As you wish Master'' the purple eyed woman nodded her head and take Natsu and Happy toward the exist.
''Heartfilia huh? Guess that blasted family is not dead yet...''
Meanwhile, with Mirajane, Wendy, Carla and Lucy
''Whoa, this place is so huge!'' Lucy shouted loudly at the view of the training of Team Fallen Fairies. Lucy had never seen a field this big as she could see all the battle scars and craters that witnessed many battles and training. She also noticed that the tree around the field are completely burnt and far away, was a large lake that was not suppose to be there.
''You really own all this by yourself? It must cost a huge amount of money'' Lucy asked as Carla replied at her answer.
''We made a deal with the mayor of the town. We pay 400 hundred thousand Jewels each month and promise to not destroyed the town'' Carla explained.
''How can you get that kind of money?'' she asked.
''We usually do bigger jobs together or by ourselves. I hope you're not a slacker. Natsu usually doesn't mind if we slack between two missions but don't push your luck. He can be very annoying when you piss him off" Lucy shivered a little bit at the thought of the Fire Dragon Slayer annoyed at her. Strangely, she thought this was possible. Wendy saw the look on the blonde's face.
"You don't have to worry Lucy-san, he will probably get you insane if you're lucky. But, if you're on his shit-list, you will need a good therapist or change your life completely" Lucy didn't feel better.
"If only I can read him like a simple book" she said which Mirajane agreed.
"I wondered the same thing but this is the Natsu we got so we have to deal with it. We can even get worse if you think about it. Now let's get to the serious stuff, as you may need to know, we need to see how far you can go at your current level and show us your magic to have a better picture and see what we can do to help'' the white haired S-Class mage explained as one thought popped from the blonde's mind.
''What about Natsu and the others?''
''Don't worry about it. Natsu-nii, Volkner-nii, Levy-nee and Happy will come sooner or later. But I've a question, how much keys do you have a contract with?'' Wendy asked.
''Six units. I count Stellar Spirits in units. These are Silver Keys, the ones who you can buy in a store'' Lucy explained as she showed her silver keys. ''The ones I have are Horologium the Clock, Crux the Southern Cross and Lyra the Lyre'' Lucy explained.
''And these are the golden keys. They are very rare keys that open the gates of the ecliptic zodiac'' Lucy said as she showed the golden ones.
''I've got the Golden Bull Taurus; The Water Bearer Aquarius and the last one The Giant Crab Cancer. By the way guys, how would you like to see how a Stellar Spirit mage makes a contract with a Celestial Spirit?'' Wendy shook her head furiously as Carla and Mirajane simply shrugged their shoulders.
''Sure why not'' they replied in the same tone.
''I wonder if she has to sign a blood pact...''Mirajane asked with a smirk.
''I-I don't need blood or anything'' Lucy stuttered. Then, Lucy started the summoning. ''I am the person who connects the road to the spirit world. Thou... shalt respond to the calling and pass through the gate. Open a door to Canis Minor Nikola!'' A gust of wind swept through the flied and the area where Lucy pointed her key and with a large poof, a small white creature with a drill as his noise.
''Wow, so cute!'' Wendy exclaimed as she got close to Nikola with stars in her brown orbs.
''What the hell is this?'' Mirajane asked, raising her eyebrow ''Just by seeing his look...this thing has no combat capabilities at all...''
''Nice try...'' Carla said looking the creature.
''It's not a failure!'' Lucy exclaimed before taking a look at the strange creature and then quickly brought it into a hug. ''You're just so cute!''
''Natsu will not like this when he going to see this.''
''Well actually this Spirit doesn't take much magic to summon through the Gate, so a lot of people think of them as pets'' Lucy explained a s she grabbed a pen and a small notebook. ''Alright then, let's move onto the contract.''
''Pupuun'' Nikola replied.
''Monday?'' Lucy asked.
''Puuuun'' It shook his head, making Lucy write it down.
''Tuesdays?''
This time she got a nod; as Lucy was writing down, Mirajane and the others were standing further, watching the process from a distance away.
''It's kind of plain'' Mirajane muttered.
''To think it was that simply'' Carla commented, while Wendy didn't say anything as she kept watching.
''And contract done!'' Lucy smiled and the creature seemed happy as well.
''It's pretty easy.''
''It is very important'' Lucy said as she stared to explain. ''When a contract is made with a Celestial Spirit, to a Stellar mage, it is an important promise. Because of that, I make sure to never break any promise I make.''
''I see.''
''I need to give this little guy a name'' Lucy said as she started to think.
''But isn't it Nikola?'' Wendy asked as she and Carla got close it.
''No, that's the name of its species...'' Lucy went quiet for a a few moments before a name came to mind. ''I got it, come here Plue!'' Plue ran into Lucy's arms.
''Plue?'' Carla questioned.
''It sounds cute right?'' Lucy smiled as she continued to hug Plue.
''But he doesn't really look like a dog'' Wendy added.
''I thought it was a bug'' Mirajane pouted.
''How the hell could he be a bug!'' Lucy yelled back, which the eldest Strauss ignored.
''Get back to the serious business. We see how you made a contract with a Celestial Spirit but show me your strongest one'' Mirajane said impatiently. She did find the strange dog or whatever thing it is cute but she wanted to know if this magic can destroy.
''...Alright but I'm warning all of you, this Spirit is quite difficult to deal with. Here we go! Open, Gates of the Water Bearer Aquarius!''
A mermaid-like spirit emerged from the blue magic seal from Lucy's key a long, blue fish-tail, light blue hair that reaches up to her waist, and a large bust. She has blue eyes that seem to have no pupils. Aquarius wears a revealing dark blue bikini top and on each arm, she has a golden armlet and bracelet. Aquarius also has a headband, three piercings on her tail, and a golden belt at her waist and light blue crystal earrings. A dark blue tattoo resembling the Aquarius zodiac symbol rests right under her collarbone.
''A mermaid! She looks so pretty'' Wendy exclaimed loudly at the first saw a of a mermaid.
''And I thought flying cats are the strangest creature that I've seen...I guess I was wrong about it'' Mirajane said to herself as the mermaid-like Spirit glared at the blonde with an annoyed look.
''Why did you summon me in the middle of nowhere brat...'' the blonde stellar mage swallowed her saliva and and replied with nervously in her tone.
''They asked to see who is my strongest spirit'' Lucy replied with a nervous tone. The blue haired mermaid glance the girls of Team Fallen Fairies with a dirty glance as she returned her glance on her blond summoner who tried to anticipated her next actions.
''You interrupt me in the middle of my date with my boyfriend for a bunch of nobodies who have no sense of fashion especially the goth over here. Makes me wonder how the hell I fell into the hands of a weakling's hands'' Before the blue mermaid can continued denigrate her blond summoner, the little Sky Dragon Slayer couldn't stand it.
''What the hell is wrong with you sea-brain bitch!''
Aquarius suddenly stop by Wendy's harsh words as Lucy covered her mouth with her hands. She couldn't believed that Wendy could say those words, in her writer mind, she's a twelve year old; polite and too pure to curse like a sailor.
''What did you say brat?'' Aquarius asked as her blue orbs narrowed as Wendy didn't even flinch. She stood on her little toes and declared a glare war with the Celestial Spirit and the Sky Dragon Slayer much to Mirajane's joy and amusement.
''You don't stop her Carla?''
''And let this bitch win this glaring contest...I may let it pass this time'' the white talking cat replied as she had a little smirk on her lips and they return their attention to the glaring contest.
''Who gives you the right to treat Lucy-san like that? She was nothing but nice and polite, she looks like someone who really cares about our species and yet you treat her like a piece of shit...I expect better for the supposed strongest spirit of Lucy-san'' the little bluenette was smirking when the blue haired mermaid started to lose her cool while Lucy didn't know what to do. She was happy that someone took her defense but was scared of what the stellar mermaid's future actions.
''Brats of your age need to respect your superiors!'' she shouted back.
''Respect what? Your old woman's ass? The only respect you deserve is for being a colossal bitch who can't have a boyfriend'' Wendy shouted back as Aquarius saw nothing but red. She took her urn in her hands and then released a large quantity of water which took the form a of a giant wave as she sent it toward the Fairy Tail members.
''ORAAA!'' Lucy screamed as she saw the giant wave of water coming at them, it wasn't the first time she witnessed the strange attack of the Celestial mermaid. Since she was a little girl, Aquarius consistently sent a huge wave of water that could drown normal people but to her surprise, the members of Team Fallen Fairies didn't react or look scared by the blue haired mermaid as suddenly the giant wave of water froze in a matter of seconds and was shattered a by a lightning bolt. Leaving Aquarius and Lucy stunned in awe.
''How?''
''Script Dragon: Freeze Shock or Fallen Fairies teamwork bitch!'' everyone turned their head toward the source of the voice as they saw Levy with giant letters'' Freeze Blast'' and Volkner and Orion who were simply smirking.
''Look like they got us mermaid for dinner, what do you think Orion?'' the blonde asked to his feline friend as Lucy was shocked to hear that the shocking star wanted to eat one of her spirits.
''What! He's joking right?''
''No he isn't'' Mirajane said deadpanned.
''Let's eat sushi!'' Volkner grinned in anticipation as his entire being cracked with electricity and was about to fry Aquarius only to be stopped by the newly stellar mage of Fairy Tail. Volkner quickly stopped in his tracks as he saw the face of the young woman like he was seeing a ghost.
''This isn't possible...I was supposed to have time'' the Lightning Dragon Slayer muttered to himself as he was standing in front of Lucy who was still in his way to fry Aquarius. She had a puzzled look until she figured out who the young man was standing in front of her.
'This Volkner McStar the Shocking Star... his eyes are a blue that I never see...'' Lucy thought when Volkner turned to Wendy.
''Who is that Wendy?'' he asked.
''This is Lucy Heartfilia, our newest teammate. Me and Natsu-nii found her at Hargeon Town when we are looking for the fake Salamander and she said that she was a fan of our guild and team so we accepted her and she just become a member of the guild'' Wendy explained as Levy stared at the nervous blonde like a newly found specimen.
''It seems odd for Natsu to recruit someone since we practically despise everybody except us but if he saw something inside you that forced him to change his opinion means you have something very special about you. Anyway welcome to the team!'' Levy exclaimed with a small smile as Lucy smiled back and shook the little hand of the little bluenette.
''Thank you very much! I'll not let any of you down'' she replied with much confidence in her tone. While everyone in the field seemed to like the positivity of the blonde, Volkner took a step back as he glanced at the Celestial Spirit mage with an interrogative expression.
'Lucy Heartfilia...she looks exactly her...' the Lightning Dragon Slayer thought while the rest of the team minus Natsu and Happy were happily talking with the new recruit. Volkner sighed and put his hands on his hips.
''I wonder what charm she used on Natsu to join our team.''
''Damn that Pyromaniac and his smug attitude! That bastard is too proud to fight seriously with me'' Gray exclaimed as he takes a sip of his drink with Makarov and Cana at the bar. The brown haired stunning woman rolled her eyes as the old short man simply chuckled, taking a sip from his drink.
''Or smart enough to choose his fights and not spend any money when someone tries to get on his nerves. You won't get what you want with those pity fights Gray, he doesn't care or have the time for that'' Makarov replied as he didn't really help with Gray's mood.
''Why because he's so much better than me?''
''For that reason and, unlike you, he doesn't waste his energy on little disputes, has the strongest team in the guild and trains his ass off everyday and has a better a** than some guys in the guild" Gray and Makarov stared at Cana with a deadpan look. She simply shrugged her shoulders and take a large sip of barrel.
"I have to be honest, he works out a lot."
''Still that's doesn't give him the right to ignore the rest of us as he's the shit in the guild. I want a serious fight to show who is the strongest here" Gray said furiously.
''Maybe if you took your training seriously rather than slacking or stripping everywhere, maybe you can catch him by surprise'' Cana added as their attention was attracted by Romeo and a young girl on the same age who is the daughter of Wakaba, Juliette Mine.
"I can't believe that nobody else wants to help my dad. I thought they treat each other like family!" The young boy smashed the table as Juliette simply sighed as she turned a page of her magazine.
"I guess that we're wrong. At least, your dad tries to do something for you. My dad doesn't hide the fact that he's more attracted to younger women that are older than me"
"I am still surprised that your mom didn't divorce him yet?"
''He's the main source of income in the house. But soon, I will join a guild, and will leave the house" Juliette explains without leaving her eyes from her magazine.
"You don't mind if I joined you? The members of Fairy Tail were sad from what they heard. How come they didn't want to join the guild of their respective fathers and yet they didn't bother to judge the conduit of the two men. Which in the eyes of the Fairy Tail was harmless. Suddenly, the Fire Dragon Slayer appeared in the guild hall with a unconscious Macao in his shoulder. Then, Natsu looked at the entire guild, searching someone as he dark green orbs fell on Romeo who gulped, seeing his idol in person making him nervous.
"Are you Macao's kid?" Natsu asked with a bored tone. The black haired mage nodded his head furiously as Natsu dropped Macao on a table.
''I found your old man being controlled by a Vulcan, it was no big deal to save him from the Vulcan. He'll be okay after a few days of rest'' Natsu was about to leave before the teenage young boy could thank him. But Romeo completely rushed toward him.
''Thank you so much Natsu-sama! You saved my dad and I will never forget that!'' Romeo bowed to the pink haired man who was surprise by the gesture.
''You don't have bowed at him Romeo. I'm sorry Mr. Dragneel but Romeo couldn't help it. He's your biggest fan'' Juliette exclaimed as she walked toward her friend's side with her hands on her hips.
''A fan huh?'' Natsu muttered. The Fire Dragon Slayer didn't expect to get some fans in the last years. He was not the best kind of role model to follow and people didn't know half of the things he did but Wendy and Levy said that kids in the orphanage at Magnolia Town look up to him as a source of inspiration. Also, the fire mage could sense magic in the two teenagers which surprised him since they have to learn the art of magic. Suddenly, an idea popped from his mind to annoy their fathers and maybe help the future generation.
''Look kids, if you want my advice. Don't become a mage like your dads. Your old men could become great mages but they waste their potential on alcohol and sleeping with girls far younger than them. If you both can start your training and join the guild, maybe I could let both of you join me on one of my jobs. How does that sound?'' Natsu asked with a small smile on his face.
Romeo and Juliette's eyes nearly popped from their sockets as they were shocked from what they heard, just like any member in the guild room. Natsu Dragneel said they could join for one job if they train hard and join the guild. It's like a dream come true for Romeo.
Juliette was hoping to join a job with Mirajane, while she was a fan of the fire mage, her idol was the eldest Strauss.
''For real? I will not let you down Natsu-nii!'' Romeo said with fire in his eyes as he clenched his fists with determination. Natsu was shocked that the young Conbolt called him big bro just like Wendy does, but for some strange reason he wasn't annoyed.
''You can count on us Natsu-san'' Juliette said with one thumb up as Natsu smirked, and left the room in a tornado of flame, but not before waving his hand, leaving the guild members shocked.
''What the hell just happened?''
''Natsu actually helped someone?'' Cana said out-loud.
''Why is everyone so shocked to see that? Natsu gives them advice?'' Lisanna said finding not wrong that the pink haired young man helped somebody.
Makarov didn't said anything as he was dealing with his thoughts 'I guess I screw up things with him huh? Maybe Lexie was right, I don't have no idea how to deal with kids...'
''Kyoka-san, I hope that we can talk about something important." The newly instated Chairman was standing next to the Demon woman who was about to leave the room. The meeting was over and the green haired woman was about to report to the Underworld King.
''Can I help you Jarus-san?'' she asked curiously. Kyoka was quite intrigued by the new Chairman, he was different from Crawford Seam. The young man was seemingly more mature than he looked and cared for the state of the continent and the kingdoms and seem to be the only one who didn't give a shit about Fairy Tail's great discussions.
''I hope you don't mind, but you are one of the rare ones in this council who is not obsessed to disband a guild who is not worth our time. I'm very concerned about the situation about Desierto Kingdom. It's bad enough that the Kingdom was taken by the Guardian and his crew but the fact that the missing Prince asked us for help to retake his kingdom is something we cannot ignore anymore.''
''I certainly agree with you Jarus-san but we cannot intervene and we can't ask another kingdom to help us since The Guardian's forces cannot be dealt with mages below S Class mage'' the green haired woman didn't have any interest helping a kingdom but the Guardian has been a nuisance to Tartarus for more than three hundred years.
''That's why I'm asking you to use one of your connections. We need two volunteers for a special kind of mission, the king of Fiore also backs up my plans but we especially need mages who can get the job done by any circumstance. Can I count on your help?'' Jarus waited for an answer. He didn't trust the green haired woman or any members of the Magic Council. The woman in front of him was quite dangerous but it was a risk he would rather take.
''I guess I could help with that Jarus-san. I already know the perfect candidates for this task'' Kyoka said with a confident smile. 'A perfect task to test Natsu-kun's strength' she chuckles.
Sorry for the wait, I could send it sooner but some friend of mine showed me the game Persona 3 and I instantly loved the game. The game is so good and I couldn't help myself but buy Persona 4 as well, and during the last month, I went to an anime convention and that was amazing! Hope you like this chapter and see you in the next chapter which will follow the canon story soon. And for those who asked why I put two characters from games, I usually put character who can fit my story depending on my mood.
