As we sat in the main room waiting for the kid to wake up I sat there thinking about what to do. 'I knew I would have to face my demons someday but not so soon.' I thought to myself. There was another thing that was bothering me too; Gray has been staring at me ever since my encounter with Violet. Sure I knew that it looked bad, but that doesn't mean anything, right? 'Shit I guess I'll have to tell him so that he doesn't think that I'm a cheating asshole.' I thought as the door opened to reveal a shirtless teenager. He looked at us and then went over the liquor cabinet and poured himself a drink.
"So you're the guys that are going to be the ones that get me to my wedding. The girls I don't mind but you two guys don't look like much, especially the pink haired one." The punk said as he took a sip of his scotch. As you can imagine that made me a little angry.
"Yeah? Well here's the deal you can either drop the attitude and be grateful for the help or we can just go back home you can deal with whatever is out there to get you. Got it?" I said with some sass. That's right I know how to be sassy. He just snorted as he took another drink. There was a little bit of tension between him and me, and apparently everybody else felt it.
"Well how about we get to know each other since we're going to be together for a little while." Wendy said hoping to break the tension.
"It would be a waste of my time to learn about these two idiots but I wouldn't mind getting to know you two beautiful women." He said with a cocky smile. She looked at for a minute and then opened her mouth.
"Well there is one thing that you should know about right off the bat. My boyfriend's name is Romeo and he does have a quick temper. As for my friend, well you can see my friend here has a ring of her finger. So if you want to not have an angry husband and boyfriend after you I would suggest that you don't flirt with us. Okay?" She said with sassy smile. We all laugh as he gave her a nasty look.
"Whatever you two aren't my type anyway." He said as he went back into his room.
For rest of the day we went to a bar where he flirted with all the girls. He even tried to take some of them home, but we "reminded" him about his upcoming wedding and that made all the girls leave him alone. It was eight o'clock when we finally dragged him home, and put him to bed. We have been out all day so you can imagine how tired I was. We could only have two rooms because we weren't important guests. So the guys were in one room and the girls were in the other. When I got into the room Gray immediately started in with the questions.
"Alright man who is she?"
"I already told you, she is just a friend. I met her when I was a kid."
"When because I currently don't remember her being around."
"We were friends before I came to Fairytail."
"Where did you meet her?"
"After Igneel left me."
"That's bullshit, after Igneel left you Gramps found and brought you to the guild.
"Have you ever heard of a cover story, because that's what it was? Igneel left me when I was six years old not nine like I told you."
"Okay, so what did you do during those three years?"
"..."
"Come on man it can't be that bad, trust me I've already seen you at your worst." He said. That was true; when E.N.D came out I was a mess.
"...I tell you but you have to promise me not to tell anyone, especially Lucy. Got it?" I said looking straight into his eyes.
"Got it."
"Okay, I guess I should start from the beginning then. When I was six, Igneel had disappeared and I was left to wander the forest. One day I was walking alone a river and I found a man. He was dressed in dark clothing; he also had a hood on to cover his face. The man was cleaning a dagger that had at one point been covered in blood. As a kid I didn't know any better so I went up to him and placed my hand on his shoulder. That had startled him so he plunged his dagger into my abdomen, which in returned made me go into shock and pass out. A week later I woke up to see that I was in a bedroom and the man was sitting by my side. He saw that I was awake, and went to explain what had happen. He told me his name was William, and that he had just came from a job and that he hadn't slept well for the past few days. So when I came from behind him, he thought that I was an enemy. I could tell that he was sorry so I didn't hold grudge. As the weeks went on we became close, at first he was reluctant but I finally broke his walls down and we built a strong relationship, and he took me under his wing. A few years of training under him, I became one of the best assassins he has ever trained. Whenever he got a job I would help him in anyway, soon I was able to do jobs on my own. As I was on jobs he would take in more orphans and give them a purpose to live. It wasn't long after he started to train other kids; he built a guild, an assassin's guild. I think it was one of the first ones to be built, but I could be wrong. With the building finished all he had to do was name it. Since I was like his son and he knew that I love everything dragon, he decided to name it Dragonheart. In the six months of his leadership we were the most successful in the kingdom, and moral was the best it could be, of course we didn't have the rules we have now, and then there was the incident."
"What happened?"
"…Well one day when I was on a mission someone in the guild had killed William. That someone was his own daughter. Her name is Loretta and she was the one that made Dragonheart in a place of dishonor. She made the assassins into shells of themselves, you see when you work for her you had to follow a few rules. Rule one- Live in the shadows, rule two-Kill or be killed, rule three-Don't show any emotions, rule four-Don't have any friends or family, and rule five- when you do retire don't talk about your time as an assassin. When you live with those rules for a long period of time, it starts to ware on your soul and soon you become a lifeless doll that lives to serve its master. When I got away from that life I was half way from that fate."
"What made you quit?"
"Well I was on a job where I was to kill a wizard saint. The wizard was the master of a guild. That guild's name was Fairytail."
"You were sent to kill Gramps?!" He yelled at me.
"Don't yell, and yes I was."
"Okay I'm trying to wrap my head around that one, obviously it didn't work. So what did he do to make you change your mind?"
"Well you know how he is with words, his wisdom made me see that the life I had been living was not the correct one from me. He gave me that opportunity to start a new life, one filled with happiness and adventure and to this day I am so grateful that he was my target. If he hadn't have been who knows where I would be at."
"You still haven't told me who that girl was."
"Like I said she is a good friend. When William was alive he found her and a few other abandoned in a storage room. They were going to be sold into the slavery, but Will was sent to kill the men. So after the job was done, he took them and gave them a home. He had me teach the kids how to defend themselves, how to kill when it is needed, and how to survive the world around them. You could say that we are as close as siblings, so she's like my sister."
"Okay…I believe you. So do you have any other secrets that you would like to share."
"No I think I'm good, and I'm tired so good night."
"Alright then good night." We got into our separate bed and went to sleep.
