"Wh-Wh-What are you doing here?" Lucy screamed.
"Hold it, blondie. It's not like I moved in here on purpose to share a place with you. Don't get the wrong idea... I'm straight," Rin yawned, pulling the large black cloak draped around her closer. She continued, "This place was already set up for me, so all I had to do is move in. Don't worry about the rent. I'll pay my half."
"Wait a minute..." Lucy Heartfilia said, remembering the time when Rin and Hikari burst into Fairy Tail and almost killed the guild members.
The black haired girl read the light mage's gaze and grinned, "Don't worry... as long as you are my roommate, I won't attack you inside of this building.. same goes for your pals."
"But what about your guild? Do they know that you're here?"
Rin Solstice got up and stretched, opening her coffin to take out a framed photo, "Nope... they don't. I'm still part of that guild, but I moved out of my place on my own. This place is more comfortable for me..." she paused as she hung the picture on the wall, "Since I used to come here every day when I was a kid."
"Eh?" Lucy tilted her head to the side, confused. She peered over the other girl's shoulder to see a boy who was around fifteen years old smiling next to a girl with black hair who glared up at him in the photo. The girl only seemed around ten or eleven years old.
"Anyways..." Rin continued, abruptly turning around to face the girl, her smile still frozen on her face, "I'm deaf, so I don't like it when people approach me from behind. The name is Rin Solstice, aged sixteen. Nice to meet you, new roommate."
"Nice to meet you... too..." Lucy gave her a small, but worried grin.
"Seriously? The Hunter is back?" Silver echoed, her cheerful expression fading away.
"Why now of all times?" Ken grumbled, rolling his eyes.
"Is the master not happy with how we are doing?" Lydia muttered, "The only major light guild that is left for us to defeat is Fairy Tail, and Raven's team is still on that..."
"Who knows?" Raiko shrugged, "All we saw was a half naked chick with silver hair hanging outside on the walls of the guild."
"Silver... hair?" Lydia said, deep in thought.
"Ginny...!" Silver exclaimed, rushing outside of the dark guild. Akira, her wolf followed her, right at her heels. The dark mage skidded to a stop at the side of the building and gasped, her eyes wide with horror.
Ginny Orca hung from the high walls of the guild. Her clothes were ripped and shredded, and the numerous amounts of cuts on her body drooled blood. A large hole was carved in the stomach of the girl, and when one looks through it, they would be able to see the mark of a red rose drawn with blood of the murdered.
Akira, who was at Silver's side, whined and her tail hung between her legs as she backed away, not liking the sight of the aftermath of the murder. Ken Hirozon and Lydia appeared next to Silver, but their eyes showed no emotion.
Kaya and Raiko stood on the roof of the guild, looking down at them. Kaya gave them a smug look before turning and running off. Raiko Tsumi, however, stayed behind and pointed down at the red letters next to the dead girl, "Look. Read what it says."
"The Hunter is back... beware, betrayers of the guild..." Lydia read, her expression grim.
"Well, that just means that we have to be careful from now on. Something like this already happened before, so there's no need to panic... right, Silver?" Ken asked the wolf girl.
"H-huh?" Silver stammered, tearing her gaze away from the dead girl who used to be one of them, "Um... yeah... not a big deal..." Sweat poured down the back of her neck as she spoke those words.
"What is going on?" Lucy Heartfilia sighed, leaning against the cold marble of her bathtub. She sank deeper into the hot water, letting her blond hair float on the surface. Seriously... a dark mage who wants to destroy Fairy Tail suddenly pops up at the place I am renting and announces that she is my new roommate... how am I supposed to deal with that? She thought, And my spirits are wary of her... even Taurus is afraid of her... How am I supposed to react to all of this? Should I tell everyone else at the guild? What would they do?
Suddenly, she heard a soft splash of the water and Lucy looked up to see Rin draped in a towel.
"Um..." Rin muttered, "May I bathe with you?"
Lucy's lower jaw nearly hit the bottom of the bathtub as she started at the suddenly shy assassin mage. "Um.. sure?" Lucy replied, thinking, Don't tell me she's... tsundere?
Rin sank into the water next to Lucy after getting rid of the towel. The two of them were quiet for a long while, not saying anything to each other, when Lucy finally spoke up nervously, "Can you please stop staring at my boobs?"
From the tiny ripples of the water, Rin could tell Lucy was saying something, and she looked up at the flustered mage's face and said, "What?"
"I said... can you not stare at my chest? It's uncomfortable.."
"Oh... sorry... It's just that they are so much bigger than mine..." Rin muttered, holding her own breasts up with her hands, as if trying to make them seem larger, "What do you eat to make them so big?"
"Nothing special, really..." Lucy answered. Uh oh! I'm starting to feel relaxed around her! How come she hasn't tried to kill me yet anyways? Just because we're roommates... It's not like I want to be killed, but...
"You know..." Rin said, "You could have just kicked me out... I wouldn't have minded... My guild is out to defeat all of the light guilds anyways... Me being here is a danger for you and your guild."
"Eh? Well..." the blonde sighed as she gazed at the black haired girl who now seemed so different from the dark mage who attacked Fairy Tail, "Sorry..."
"Why are you apologizing? I am dangerous anyways... I've been a danger to everyone around me since I became a member of Black Rose... can you wash my back for me?"
"Uh... sure," Lucy smiled. Rin turned her back towards her, and Lucy gave a small gasp at the three deep red marks of roses on the girl's back. She asked, "These... aren't tattoos or stamps, right? How come you have so many of them? Do you like your guild that much?"
Rin didn't reply, and silence fell between the two girls again.
Gray walked down the streets of the city, thinking deeply about his sister who was in a dark guild. How should I approach this? Just walk up to her and say that I'm her brother? Tell her to quit the guild? I haven't seen her for a very long time... I thought she was killed along with our parents... he thought. Or maybe I should find that girl with the black hair who was with her and try to get some answers... But it will be dangerous.. they're both assassins, after all.
The sun had already disappeared from the sky and the moon had risen, glowing among the blanket of stars. Gray looked ahead of him to see a dark, moving figure. It seemed as if he or she was heading somewhere at a fast speed. The figure turned her head slowly, and Gray could be long, waist length black hair and the same eyes he saw just yesterday.
Speak of the devil!He thought, and hurried after the girl.
The girl rushed down the street, not looking back as her feet carried her farther away from Gray. When Gray was almost upon her, she turned abruptly into an alley, and when the ice mage followed her inside, she was gone. Gray slowly walked down the dark alley, looking up and down the high walls only thirty centimetres away from him on both sides.
"Where did she go?" he breathed. He continued to walk for a few minutes when he suddenly couldn't move his feet and his arms were entangled in something sticky.
"What is going on?" Gray muttered as he tried to break through the bondings. It was no use. He was stuck tightly to what ever held him. The clouds over the moon slowly drifted away, and from the soft glow, he could see thread encircling his entire body.
"Thread...?" Gray said as he saw that he was in the middle of a sticky, enlarged spiderweb. He looked around and saw the face of the figure that loomed over him. It was Rin Solstice, the human spider of death.
