Cameron: Due to getting a positive review and a lot of views for the first chapter, I've decided to release the second one early! Enjoy!
"So all I do is walk in on her in the shower and she attacks me!" Mortis slammed his fist onto the coffee table which made his best friend; Reave, look up from his magazine for a second before carrying on, "I didn't even look!" Reave nodded slowly before licking his finger and turning the page, allowing his friend to continue "I mean it's not like I wanted to see her like that…" Mortis rubbed his hand, which was now aching from hitting the solid oak table, "I mean I might have peeked a little…but that doesn't mean anything! All guys have their urges right?"
Reave finally spoke up, still not tearing his eyes from the page "You have no idea man…" Mortis looked quizzically at his friend before getting up and looking over his shoulder.
"A-Ha!" the water dragon slayer grinned and plucked the issue of Sorcerer Weekly from Reave's hands, "I knew it! You're not even listening to me! You're just ogling that bimbo from the centrefold again…"
"Her name is Mirajane!" he shouted, reaching for the magazine, "You don't know anything about her!" Reave tore the magazine from his best friend's hands, a deep red overcoming his face, "She's not just attractive…I've heard she's also smart and kind, and she's one of Fairy Tail's most powerful mages!"
Mortis pondered on his words for a moment, "If those things are true…" he said; stroking his chin, "Then there's absolutely no way she'd date you"
Liliana watched as Mortis and Reave brawled about ten metres from where she was sitting, shouting things like "You take that back!" and "I'm gonna friggin' kill you I swear to God!" as the other guild members cheered them on. She quietly sipped her herbal tea, instantly rejuvenating her due to her dragon slayer powers, as a small boy sat down beside her and placed his drink on the table.
"Lili-san?" the child said, tugging at her arm to get her attention, "I have a message for you"
Liliana smiled politely at her small apprentice while taking another sip of tea, "Okay Lyndon, what is it?"
"When will you admit you love Mort-kun?" he asked inquisitively, his eyes shining brightly.
Liliana did an instant spit-take and showered the sofa opposite hers in herbal tea, unfortunately drenching a mage who happened to be sitting there, "Oh my God Devlin I'm so sorry!" she tried to speak, completely flustered at Lyndon's question.
Devlin spread out his arms so that the liquid dripped all over the couch he was sitting on, his face; dark with rising anger, "This shirt…cost me…600 hundred jewel!" he stood and flipped the table with rage, a sphere of black magical energy had engulfed his hand, "I'll kill you!" He launched the ball of dark power straight at Liliana, giving her a precious second to duck out the way. Unfortunately, that meant it instead hit a woman in a cowgirl outfit who happened to be walking by, "Oh shi- Darcy I am so …" he was stopped mid-sentence by a cow ramming painfully into his side, seemingly out of nowhere.
"Ya'll shouldn'ta done that Devlin…" she stood and rolled up her sleeves with an evil glint in her eye, "Now old Darcy's pissed off!"
"Wet t-shirt contest please!" a voice called down from the upstairs which soon began to laugh uncontrollably. His laughter stopped suddenly when a chicken smacked him in the face out of nowhere, "What the hell!?"
"Telzo you no good varmint!" she called up to the man with a taunting tone, "Come down here and fight me like a man!" Telzo grinned wickedly as he looked down at the cowgirl. With an almighty shout the floor around him flew into the air, tearing off a large piece of the balcony like it was nothing, and proceeded to be launched at his fellow S-Class mage.
"Bring it on, ya buck-toothed bitch!" He snarled as the flying ledge narrowly missed Darcy's head, "Nobody materialises a chicken at my face and gets away with it!"
The massive piece of wood, as opposed to hitting its intended target, went on a collision course with another mage from S-Class who shouted as it came right for him, "Requip; demon's katana!". A flash of bright light shone from Justice, clearing to reveal a long, sharp blade in his hand that easily sliced the object in two. Justice's serious face turned to a wide grin, "S-Class free-for-all!" he shouted, with Darcy and Telzo agreeing loudly with him before charging at each other.
"Everyone stop, please" Siana's quiet voice could not be heard over the battle cries of her colleagues, "Stop it NOW!" a massive bolt of lightning fell from the ceiling, striking the mages down instantly with a large crack, "Thank you…now, Master has something to say"
Drakvor stepped forward to address his guild, his crimson armour clanking loudly as he moved. "I have some slightly disappointing news for you. It seems that we got the letter from Fairy Tail a little too early, and the celebration isn't for a while as yet" all the mages present let out a simultaneous groan which was met with a sigh from their master, "so as we wait, you should just carry on taking jobs to pass the time. That is all"
As the crowd of mages dispersed, a single, dark figure's leering eyes zoomed in on a girl with long, blonde hair. "It seems that their meeting with Fairy Tail has been postponed sir" he spoke quietly into his mouthpiece, "This has given us a window of opportunity"
"Be patient Zane" a muffled voice crackled from the speaker into his ear, "the project is almost complete"
"Yes sir" a slight look of annoyance ran across his face, "I will wait. Then shall I seize the girl?"
"Or the boy" a reply came soon after, "Haru needs only one dragon slayer to complete the process"
"Soon you'll be ours, flower girl" a smirk could almost be seen in the rafters of the Phoenix Knight Guild hall, "Then this world will see true power…"
Cameron: Thanks for reading the second chapter! I'm sorry if it seems that I'm trying to put in too many characters too early, but I needed to introduce some of them before the storylines began :D See you next chapter!
