How does this story already have so many favorites and follows? I only had one chapter out. I know compared to everyone else this amount of faves and follows aren't much but to me that's a lot. Don't get me wrong, this makes me happy, but it's still surprising.
Anyway, for the next few chapters we will be introducing my completely unoriginal OCs that I based off of something else.
In case anyone's wondering, Fairy Tail won't be appearing again until the Grand Magic Games happens.
Also, in case anyone's wondering "Why Hisui and Sayla with Natsu? That seems like an odd pairing." I'm trying to be different.
Reminder, there are some things different from Canon, just to remind you all. Enjoy, or not, I don't care you all have you're opinions.
Everything belongs to their respective owners.
Chapter Two: Enter! Ragtagg the Warrior
Black eyes opened to see light shining bright into Natsu's face as he woke up from his sleep. The now former Fairy Tail wizard decided to set up camp in a forest. The pink haired male still didn't know where he would go, so he simply just decided to travel for now.
"Alright, better get moving." Natsu told himself as he picked up his things once more as he headed out once more. As he walked through the thick trees, his thoughts went back to Fairy Tail.
'I wonder how they are doing? Did they noticed I was gone… or do they simply don't care?' These thoughts continued to fill Natsu's mind as he was now feeling more depressed. Natsu then shook his head from that line of thinking. 'No… it doesn't matter anymore. I'm not with Fairy Tail anymore. Whatever happens there or how they are doing is no longer my concern.' Natsu thought to himself as he continued onward.
However, as he went on his way, a bunch of bandits suddenly appeared from the bushes surrounding the fire dragon slayer.
"Look what we have here," One of them began to speak, "A lone traveler on OUR turf. Hand over your things and maybe we'll go easy on you." He finished as the other bandits laughed.
Natsu simply sighed; he really didn't want to deal with these goons right now. He figured he might as well take care of them.
Before he did anything though, a loud scream was heard from where the bandits came from. They all turned around to see another bandit appear from the shadows of the trees. For some reason he looked downright terrified.
"RUN! S-Some sort of monster is killing-!" The bandit couldn't finish his sentence as all of a sudden, a massive sword came right though the man's chest, killing him instantly as his body fell.
This of course causes the other bandits to freeze in fear by what they saw. Natsu was also shocked, but not out of fear, but from the man being killed. Looking back up, he and the bandits saw the figure responsible for it appeared from the trees.
To Natsu, the figure was covered in dark gray and red armor, with the red giving off a glow. The figure's leggings looked like they were made up of some kind of metal chains that covered the armored person's entire legs. The man also had dark metal boots with some red glowing at the top of them where they covered his leg joints. He as also wearing gauntlets that looked the same like the boots he was wearing. His head was also covered, so the pink haired male couldn't see what he looked like underneath it. The helm he was wearing had some sort of dark shadow covering the front of his face, with only two glowing red eyes to be seen from the front, though Natsu couldn't tell if those were actually his eye color or if the helmet make it seem that way. The rest of the helmet was a glowing red with the tope looking like a type of crown as well. He looked a bit muscular as well, nothing like Laxus or Elfman, but still muscular compared to most people. All in all, he looked rather intimidating to the fire dragon slayer.
"What do we have hear?" The figure began to speak as he walked forward, "More bandits attacking another traveler. Don't worry, this will be quick." He then raised his sword once more as he charged are the bandits.
"D-Don't just stand there! Attack!" Another of the bandits told the rest, as they charged at the armored man.
Now usually when something like this happens, Natsu would have jumped in to help. However, he wanted to see what this man would do, as he never seen anyone like this before. That and he had a feeling that the man was able to handle himself.
Natsu's feeling was right when the man then plunge his sword into one of the bandit's chest, getting the other bandits to be froze in fear as they saw the armored figure kill another bandit.
"RUN!" The first bandit screamed as they tried to get away.
"Oh no you don't!" The armored figure then, with speed that caught Natsu off guard, charged at the farthest bandit, before slamming himself into the bandit. The force alone killed the thug as the remaining two bandits tried to get away.
The figure replied to this by jumping from where he was onto the second bandit. Due to the force he was unleashing when he landed on the thug, it killed the bandit. Without even looking, he threw his sword at the last one, killing him as well.
The figure looked around to see his handy work as he went to pick up his sword.
Natsu was surprised to see this man taking out all the bandits all by himself the way he did. While he might not agree with him killing the bandits, he was still impressed by what he saw. However, the reason this was interesting and confusing the pink haired dragon slayer was because during the whole time, he didn't feel any magic coming from him, nor did he feel any magic coming from the weapon or armor.
The figure then turned to Natsu as he began to walk toward him.
"Are you alright?" The figure asked Natsu, getting him to snap out of his thoughts about.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I would have taken care of them myself if you haven't showed up." Natsu replied to him.
"Really? You didn't look like you would though." The armored person responded back.
"I may not look like it, but I can fight." Natsu then put out his hand to the armored man. "My name's Natsu Dragneel." Natsu introduced himself, as he figured that was something he should do.
The armored man put out his own hand and shook it with Natsu's hand. "The name's Ragtagg. It's nice to meet you Natsu."
"No problem, but may I ask what are you doing out here?" Natsu asked him, as for someone who wore the armor Ragtagg was wearing would seem odd for a place like a forest.
"Oh, I agreed to help a nearby town to rid of the bandits. I was low on money, so I decided to help out. Of course, getting the chance to help others is also a bonus. And getting to cut down any enemies in general is also a bonus." Ragtagg replied.
"There's a town nearby?" Natsu asked him again, wanting to make sure he heard him right.
"Yeah. Come on I'll take you there." Ragtagg offered to the pink haired male, who agreed as the armored male led Natsu the way to the town. On the way, Natsu wanted to ask him something else.
"Hey Ragtagg." Natsu began to speak, getting the armored man's attention.
"Yeah?"
"The way you said that you accepted to help the town for money, are you not a part of a guild?" The pink haired make asked.
"No, I'm not a part of any guild. I'm simply traveling right now, see what kinds of challenge the world can bring to me." Ragtagg answered.
"I see, may I ask what kind of magic you use?" Natsu asked him. The dragon slayer wanted to know what kind of abilities the armored male was capable of when he saw him take down the bandits.
"HAH!" Ragtagg let out a loud laugh, "I don't use magic. I'm a warrior, not a mage."
"Huh?" Natsu was now confused.
"I guess you would be surprised, since from what I have seen not many know of warriors. Instead of magic, I simply rely on my physical strength alone. Of course if I get angry that helps as well." Ragtagg explained to Natsu.
"Whoa, that's pretty cool." Natsu admitted.
Eventually, they managed to arrive at the town that Ragtagg talked about. After he went to get his reward for solving the town's bandit problem, both he and Natsu figured the best thing to do next was to get something to eat.
'A LITTLE WHILE LATER'
"Ah, that was good." Natsu told the warrior as he patted his now full stomach.
"Indeed it was. It's been a while since I had a good meal." Ragtagg replied, as the warrior didn't have much food before arriving at this town.
"Hey Ragtagg," Natsu began to speak, getting the warrior's attention, "What are you planning to do now?"
"Hm…," The armored warrior tried to think about what he plans to do next, "Well, I would most likely continue my travels, see where my feet take me."
"I see." Natsu spoke, but then an idea came to the pink haired male. "I know, why don't we travel together?"
Ragtagg was caught my surprised by that question. Seeing his confusion, Natus began to explain his reasoning.
"We're both traveling, and don't really have an exact location to go. I'm also interested of you're warrior abilities as well. Maybe we can also have duels sometimes since you and I both enjoy fights." Natsu explained.
Ragtagg began to ponder about Natsu's offer. It's true, he didn't really have an exact place he needed to go, and he does enjoy fights. Ragtagg then let out a grin.
"Alright Natsu, You got yourself a deal!" The armored warrior agreed.
"Sweet!"
"But don't mess with my stuff."
"I won't."
So after they finished eating, and stacking up on any supplies that they needed, they headed out from the town to continue their travels.
Ragtagg has appeared. And if anyone has figured it out, yes he is based off of the WoW Youtuber Ragtagg because I'm unoriginal.
If things seem boring so far I apologize. Hopefully things will get more exciting as the story goes on. Also sorry if the describing part sucks, I'm not good at describing things.
See you all next time, whenever that will be.
Next time: Here's Nixxiom and Moocluck!
