Don't tell me he's gonna…
"This is Ren Mokuzai," Makarov said, waving his hand over to as said girl, "our newest member."
"So much for being a shadow that no one notices," Ren grumbled. She silently sent a glare back at the short man standing on the bar counter.
Mirajane laughed a bit. "Well they all were going to find out about you sooner or later."
"I could've waited 'til later," the purple haired girl mumbled. She sighed and turned to the group of people looking at her. "Uh… hi, what's up?" She was actually a bit surprised that most of the people there gave her warm smiles even though she didn't return them.
Then a spikey pink haired 'mummy' came running out in front of the crowd yelling something that was muffled by the bandages covering his mouth. No one else knew what he was saying, based on their blank stares, while he finished what he was yelling about and pointed at Ren. Complete silence followed after the mummified mage stopped yelling. After a good minute, there was a sigh and wood creaking slightly, like someone getting up. "The idiot said that he wants to fight you," a close second, black haired, 'mummy' translated.
A few more sighs and 'He's hopeless' passed through the crowd while a smirk grew across Ren's face and finally turned into a laughing fit. The pink haired boy blinked then looked pissed while he yelled something again. This time, before the black haired guy could translate again, Ren became sober from her laughing and answered, "I'm laughing at you, dude." She let out another chuckle. "I'll fight ya, but only after ya loose about a hundred of those bandages."
Both 'mummies' looked at her strangely for two different reasons. The pink haired one asked her about how she did know he had over a hundred bandages, it was still muffled but she knew what he was saying, causing her to fight back more laughter. The black haired one nearly fell over from the stupidity of the other's question. "You're a total moron!" he yelled right after he recovered from the near-fall. "The better question would be: How the hell can he understand you?"
Most of the other mages went back to what they were doing before while a few mages that knew the two arguing 'mummies' sighed and stayed where they were to make sure the two didn't hurt each other even more. Ren smirked and walked a little closer to the two. "Yo guys, its fine, okay? So what if I know what he's saying, it's not that hard." She shrugged while the two looked at her again. "Anyways, thanks for the laugh. I haven't had one like that in years. And I'll save that fight with ya 'till after you get better since it'd be unfair if I fight with you like this." She then turned and started walking to the request board. On her way there, she heard someone trying to run up behind her to jump her. Ren sighed and looked down at her shadow. In a quick second, she felt the familiar force pulling her down into the floor.
Ren looked up and around in her little world. She called it the shadow world since it showed everyone's shadows. It was cliché but it stuck ever since she was four and a half, when she first went there with Kuromajin. She looked over and saw the pink haired boy's shadow. He was looking around, saying something but it was too muffled. Then the black haired mage's voice came in slightly muffled saying, "How the hell do I know where he went? It looked like he was just sucked into the floor." That was one thing about the shadow world, any noise from the opposite side came through slightly muted.
A smirk crossed the shadow mage's face as she, sort of, floated by the spikey haired shadow and flicked his forehead.
~~~When Ren Disappeared~~~
The pink haired mage tried to jump Ren but just landed on the floor. He quickly stood up and looked around but the girl was nowhere to be seen. He tried to say, 'Where is he?' but it still wasn't clear. The other 'mummy' that could make out what he said just answered, "How the hell do I know where he went? It looked like he was just sucked into the floor." Shortly after that was said, the pink haired mage felt something like a flick on his forehead. He looked around again then at the floor.
Something he didn't notice before was another shadow that looked just like Ren. Only thing was that there were two light holes where the eyes should be and a slightly curved line where its mouth was. A quiet snort was heard and the shadow quickly went over to the request board. Ren came out of the floor a second later and quickly scanned all the papers. She ripped a sheet off the board, looked it over again and walked over to hand it to Mirajane. "I'm taking this one, see ya in a week tops."
And with that, she turned and walked out of the guild. "Wow," a blonde girl muttered. "What's up with him?"
