Just to tell you, I will be introducing characters a few at a time…
No flames please, some characters I had to simplify… their moves at least
Point of view will change often
Disclaimers: DisclaimedGray could remember the day he brought the older girl to the guild. It was dreary and sprinkling rain everywhere, somewhat like Lluvia in a way. However, it was that day he met Black Goldeast.
Collapsed in an alley, Natsu's and Gray's shortcut to Fairytail Headquarters, they found her. Her waist-length brown hair was matted with sweat and blood, and her Black eyes stared reproachfully at them through half-closed lids. All in all she looked miserable and near death. The two boys approached her carefully, as if she would bite, and Gray put a cold hand on her forehead. He quickly jerked his hand away; to him her hand was hotter than Natsu's regular body heat.
She entered the guild like that, sickly and pale. The only exception was that she was unconscious. (Result of Natsu dropping her.) Usually the two boys would bicker at hair's end, but today they carried her here in silence. The guild members inwardly thought something, something of higher power, must have sent her to reward them. To pardon their ears of the two youth's loud riots.
Now she looked healthy, well almost. Gray winced; he remembered how Black got a devastating scar on her eye. It was his fault that it was blinded, and he detested to remember how it happened.
It was on a mission. He and Black were to defeat a water demon.
"Ha, ha you brute, can't catch me!!!" Gray taunted the monster
"Gray watch out!!!!" Black pushed Gray out of the way; instead the water spear meant for Gray's heart plunged into her eye. There was so much blood…
Anyway, Now she looked healthy and tall. Her bangs covered the scar. And she dressed always in her favorite color, guess…black. Gray was afraid to go on another mission with her after the unfortunate incident. She deserved someone more powerful he thought, someone like Jake Thorns, whom she was partnered with currently.
What was it about Lluvia that ticked her off so? No matter how Black contemplated this matter, she could never come up with an answer. Was it because rain reminded her of her almost fatal sickness? Was it just that she hated water in particular? (remember, a water demon blinded her) Or more likely, she was just pissed off at the way Lluvia draped herself over Gray's muscular body. Sure, she was a nice girl and got along with everybody just fine. But Lluvia? Oh… she'd make her life living hell.
…Did that woman just fawn over Gray, AGAIN????
Lucy watched as Black made her way towards Lluvia…
3…2…1…
"You… YOU'RE asking for this!!!" Black screeched at Lluvia.
"Lluvia has another rival in Gray-sama's love…oh no…" Lluvia muttered to herself in a monotone. She just simply hugged Gray tighter. Lucy couldn't stop giggling. Gray was going blue with the lack of air, and no doubt he was wondering why two girls were out to get him. I hope he finds out before he gets himself killed Lucy thought.
"Oh Lord…" Jake, Black's partner walked over to placate the fight that was itching to happen. His easygoing manner managed to calm even the most fiery and prickly people. But his toughest challenge yet had to be his partner. They got along fine, yes, they had much in common. Like how they hated to talk about their past, especially since his own involved Dark Guilds. But wasn't this too much? It puzzled him really to see her riled up at Lluvia. Of course, he too got annoyed at Lluvia, but Black was such a cheerful girl. She was a practical friend to all else in the guild. Why Lluvia?
And why did the female population and older males of the guild give him such sympathetic looks, like they know something he doesn't?
"Cut it Black, be responsible and take a deep breath" He said to Black while holding her black vest back with one hand. With the other he ran through his blonde spikes, (of hair of course) a habit he found himself repeating quite frequently. He turned his pale blue eyes to the rest of the people gathered.
"Hey Natsu, Hey Erza, Hey Gray, have you lost to a girl by a mere strangle hold? What a man…" Jake chuckled at his joke. Lluvia instantly reddened and released Gray who immediately started to gasp for some much needed air. "Hey Mirajane, Hey Lucy…" Jake drifted off. The two girls were looking funnily between Black and Gray, Black and Gray, Black and Gray…and then to him.
That look again… What did it mean…was it some kind of secret signal??? Then again Mirajane and Lucy aren't ones to scheme against the guild. However, they looked so knowingly at the three of them.
" I've calmed down now Jake, no need to hold on to my shirt anymore, unless you want to wear it. Want me to strip like Gray does?" Black remarked. However people knew she was joking no matter how prickly her words were. On her face, there always would be a smile. A small smile nonetheless, but still, a smile.
Blacks words eased the tension in the group, even Lluvia managed quiet down about Gray-sama this and Gray-sama that.
"Gray, Lucy, Natsu, Erza, Black, and Jake please come to the master's office." Mirajane suddenly said. "I forgot about this until you arrived Jake, well I hope you have fun, if you know what I mean" she winked and ushered them towards the door
I hope they live through the mission, I'm curious as to see what their children will look like.
Mirajane sighed and turned towards Lluvia who was hungrily looking at the closed door to the master's office. Her lips were pouting; she wasn't happy she was left out…but of course that means she has a less chance to die sooner than needed. No need to let more people go through danger…
" Ah… I was wondering when you'd arrive." The master sat upon his desk, in a position much like the way he sits on the bar. "We have received an urgent mission, all who aren't confident may leave now!"
No one left.
Old man smiled under his moustache. "Excellent…"
"Troy-sama, I have brought what you wished…" Across the country, in a secluded mansion, a raven-haired tan young woman carried an ominous casket. It seemed to emit a dark aura then a cheerful aura, then somehow a nervous aura. Constantly, it seemed, that whatever inside changed emotions quickly.
"Yesss… very good. You may leave…" He held the casket lovingly within his hands.
"Brother, this may not be the best choice." Said a figure standing in the shadows of the dim light. Although there was not much you could see, already he could have been classified as handsome, and possibly godly.
"Don't worry, dear brother, this is only the beginning… the tip of the iceberg.
