Oh boy it has been a long time since I have updated, sorry for the huge delay, kind of lost my mojo for a little bit, but I did type this all out from the time I got home from work so I worked hard today kind of aha, but I tried something different with this chapter it was all from Rii's point of view. I've been reading a lot of the High-School DxD light novel and I liked the look of the point of view writing, so tell me what you think if you like it then I'll change up the point of view every few chapters or so, if not then I'll just go back to showing everyone's thoughts and what not.
An Old Distant Promise
After a few days of pacing back and forth around the guild, I Rii Rixle, walk past the slightly torn columns in the lower guild hall the earth shakes as the dust and dirt falls from what we know as the ceiling, I've grown quite tired of the smell of dirt but it has grown on me as well, as I walk down the guild hall ways getting closer to my bedroom I turn the greened brass handle and enter, taking my armor off and putting on tattered pyjamas, sitting down on the worn bed and throw my hands behind my head a slowly drift off into a slumber.
"Hey lady...hey!" A small child with brown hair and green eyes looked up at me tapping on my leg armor "Hey, did you see the smoke over there!" the young boy shouted pointing over, of course I saw it I'm a dragonslayer
"Yea kid I saw it, what of it?" I responded coldly his eyes narrowed on me
"Well it's coming from the city that has the grand magic games!" The boy shouted again jumping trying to look, a loud roar could be heard and sent chills down my spine, looking back down at the kid he looked terrified "Do you see the scaly monster in the sky!" The kid tugs at my pants as I look over around the area in shock and disbelief
"That's no monster kid it's a dragon." Jaw dropped looking at the massive dragon flying in the sky "Its alright kid, Dragons are peaceful for the most part." I should know I was raised by one, but the kid doesn't have to know. Loud marching came as some soldiers came up over the hill entering the village me and the green-eyed kid were in
"We are looking for any mage who can help stop the dragon attack!" The Soldiers all shouted looking around the village, there were possibly two mages, not including myself, but I like to keep quite...wait did they say dragon attack.
"Excuse me did you say dragon attack?" I asked quickly
"Yes ma'am the dragons are attacking the city they keep coming more and more there are hundreds thousands! We have powerful mages in the city but it seems like only 7 of them can hold their own against the powerful dragons." the soldiers responded quickly, hmm what they say could be true but why now why would dragons attack. I stepped forward towards the soldiers
"Take me if there are any mages in this small village none of them would be able to hold their own, besides I am also a dragonslayer, I am most suited to fight the dragons." I quickly said as another loud roar could be heard they're getting closer
"Wait lady you're a mage and a dragonslayer to!" the little boy looked up at me shouting "But then why did you come to out village?" he questioned quickly
"Well, I wanted to live peacefully, but it seems like that wont happen now." No it wont happen not if dragons are attacking.
The boy looked up with a smile "So will you protect our village from the dragons?" He asked
I looked down at the boy and rubbed my hand on his head smiling "Of course I will this village is peaceful that's all I want." turning back to the soldiers "So let's go I will protect them all." as I turned and walked with the soldiers the kid shouted to me
"Lady will you really protect us all!" I turned around giving him a thumbs up, as he came running up to me handing me a small black scarf "It gets chilly at night, so take this with you" the boy smiled up to me giving me his scarf
"I don't need the scarf, I don't get cold but I will take it out of kindness so thank you boy."I sighed if only he knew I controlled ice "Of course I will though, I will take out all the dragons don't worry about it, and my name isn't Lady, its Rii, Rii Rixle remember that." I smiled and turned back
"Okay Rii, my name is Ryu, so please come back and protect the village! And take good care of my scarf" The kid know as Ryu shouted as his voice rang in my ears I heard the sound of Dragons roars a familiar sound, it has been awhile since I've use my magic I snorted and chuckled to myself cracking my neck and knuckles
"Okay so how far till the city?" I asked continuing to crack and stretch my joints
"Not to far that village was pretty close actua..." The soldier was cut off as I told him to pipe down I heard something in the distance, no back in the village I was in, these ears were good, all my senses were. "Why did you silence us!" the Captain like soldier shouted at me
A chilling wind passed over us "Do you really want to anger me?" as I huffed out cold air with frost and slight ice, they all backed down after that "Now tell me what way is the city I need to go back to the village I heard something." they all pointed towards the town in fear that I would hurt them I suppose.
I went running back to the village as quickly as I could, When I got back to the village I stood at the entrance the village was on fire smoke-filled the night sky, smells of burning bodies filled the air, a small voice is all I heard "The...lady...wil...prot...us..." I ran as quickly as I could to the voice, no it can't be Ryu, I started shaking the tears came down from my eyes the ground started to freeze. "Ri...you came...back to...protec...us.." The light started to fade from his eyes, I clenched my fist so tight my nails dug into my hand causing it to bleed slamming my bloodied fist to the ground freezing the village. "I was going to protect them." mumbling under my voice, looking around and hearing strange crackling noises and small screeches seeing small dragon like things there feet froze to the ground they were clawing at my ice "There is no hope for you, who destroyed my peaceful village who took the life from this one here." My voice trembled in rage 4 of them this will be easy then I will kill all the dragons this power I did not want to use again, for you Ryu. I gripped onto Ryu's black scarf tossed it around my neck
~Ice Dragons Hammer~ I snarled as my arms froze into massive pillars of ice, leaping into the air I plunged my right arm deep into the ground ending more pillars across the village as they came crashing out from the ground they exploded across stabbing into all the small dragons. "That takes care of that, I am sorry Ryu, I couldn't protect you, but I will protect everyone else." I declared as a stormed out of the village leaving a cold chill in my behind me.
I charged down the hill towards the city, when I got through the forest, I saw a blue haired girl standing on a cliff with a large amount of people, she looked worried or concerned for something, I walked up and pushed past the crowd up to the small blue haired girl her orange dress dirty and slightly ripped up her eyes puffy from crying, she looked defeated, crushed and barely holding onto her sanity, I placed my hand on her shoulder she turned around wiping her eyes
"Hello.."She mumble "If you could just stay back with the group..." She trailed off some more "No there is something different about you I don't remember bringing anyone in armor over here. Who are you?" She asked quickly
"I am Rii, the Ice Dragonslayer I made a promise to protect and use my magic for a better reason now."
"Then please go down there protect my guild! Save Gajeel and Wendy, everyone!" Shouting with more tears coming from her eyes.
I awoke with a loud scream and gasping and reaching in the air, eyes wide open looking around my room, sensing a panic in the guild Levy came into the room looking worried "What happened Levy"
"I should be asking you the same thing, that same nightmare?" Levy asked me looking worried
"Yea not as long as usual though, so oh well." sighing "Anyways so why is the guild in a panic?"
"I'm not sure how you slept through it all, but there was some loud roars and thumps around the guild, everyone is meeting in the main hall, we should hurry go get dressed quick." Levy quickly said as she walked over to me placing her hand on my shoulder "Don't worry about the past even if you couldn't protect everyone protect them now here all of us count on you three." Levy said smiling with a small tear coming from her eye, she removed her hand and left the room quickly. I started to put my armor on warping my scarf around my neck covering part of my face "Ryu, I will protect them." Leaving my room walking into the mail hall
"Everyone calm down we need to make groups for everyone, the Dragons have found our hide out it seems, the best course of action would be to leave and find a new place to hide" Mira said quickly looking around to everyone. I looked over to Gray, of course as calm as ever wearing no shirt, I chuckled to myself walking over to him
"Gray whats going on?"
"It seems something big is over top of us we're not to sure what it is, all I know is that we need to make 3 groups and find a new place to hide together." Gray explained the situation to me
"I see, so one group per slayer, it seems"
"Yea seems about that way" Gray sighed looking around "seems like everyone is pretty nervous" Gray crossed his arms he looked like he wanted to speak up
"But you're still as calm as ever eh" I slapped his back "Alright Mira, I know the situation Gray and I will be group leader for one team, why not Gajeel will go with Lilly, Levy, and Erza. Wendy Will go with Meredy, Jellal and Doranbolt, anybody who wants to be go with what ever group let's go, why don't we go to the previous Fairy Tail guild hall, it's probably as sturdy as ever" Mira looked at me shocked that I was giving out directions, well it is a bit of a surprised I usually keep quite in these situations
"That...seems like a good plan...Rii" Gajeel said shocked along with Mira, well I mean I'm always thinking, just hardly speak up.
"So why not everyone can make a break for it, Wendy, Gajeel, and myself will hold down the fort till everyone is safe, Mira you use your strongest take over to protect everyone. We all know you're hiding a new one from us all." I winked over to Mira, she looked embarrassed
"Juvia, will go with Gray and Rii." Juvia said quickly, yea didn't think she'd let us go together as leaders letting out a small laugh "Alright so that settles it. We all go in the next few minutes alright?" I asked around everyone cheered, looks like it will work.
Gajeel, Wendy and I all approached the entrance to the stairwell and climbed the ladder up to the surface, what we saw was unthinkable three large dragons stomping around the town that what you could call a guild was in, tons of tiny dragon, "This wont be easy." I looked down to them with worry as I pulled the scarf more up covering my face a bit more "There is three dragons, and tons of the little ones." I saw Wendy's face go into complete shock
"How..how did they find us." Wendy said stunned
"Dragons have good noses it was only a matter of time" I shook my head "It wont be easy but we will protect everyone."
"Right" Gajeel and Wendy both said as the three of us climbed up out of the tunnel and getting close to the crumbling walls
A massive crystal like dragon with huge claws walked past the building its wings stretching out light barely made it them, another dragon black as night with massive teeth came walking up to it, and the third dragon in the distance, a graceful looking grey dragon compared to the others not as scaly more like feathery it was bigger than the other two with four massive wings on its back. "I do not see them, the ones they spoke up, but I do smell them" The large black dragon said
"The Children of Grandeeney, Metalicana, and Kyao" The crystal dragon spoke as Gajeel, Wendy and myself all charged out
"What do you know of our Dragons!" The three of us said in unison steaming with anger
The large black dragon brought its head down its piercing red eyes giant claws and massive teeth it slowly got closer to us it seemed like a sleek dragon very scaly what you would expect a long tail a few scars across its body "Oh these are the children" It laughed as the crystal dragon got closer hollow eyes with a faint blue glow from there sockets, its body was jagged almost as if it was made of pure ice
"Oh they really don't seem like much" The other dragon laughed as they both swung there tails at us Gajeel jumped in the air as he went Shadow-Iron form and Wendy jumped back as she went into her Storm form I brought my arms up and froze them with spikes sticking out hoping to injure them
~Sky Dragons Storm Cannon~ Wendy brought a large current of wind towards her hands infusing it with lightning she fired small condensed hurricanes from her hands after they hit slightly piercing the scales the lighting would drive through centre of it into the wound.
As Wendy was attacking Gajeel turned into a shadow quickly moving under them, they're both so strong now and I am still the same how will I protect everyone.
~Shadow-Iron Dragons Buzz Sword~ Gajeel turned his arms into swords with the shadows spinning around them vibrating as he dipped into his shadows and popped out cutting at their legs causing little damage
Wendy and Gajeel backed back up to where I was, the two dragons shrugged off our attacks and chuckled a bit "So this is the power of the three children?" The black dragon roared and all the smaller dragons left the area backing away in what felt like fear
"So children of dragons, is this all you have, or would you like to get stronger?" The large grey dragon covered in feathers more talon like feet, this dragon felt more like a bird then a dragon but I felt more power from it than the other two along with it.
"Yes I want power, I know I...we're not nearly as strong as we could be. But why are you three dragons here, I thought you were against the humans." I stepped forward and spoke raising an eyebrow
"Oh not all the dragons are against humans, just the dragons who came through the gate." The crystal like dragon spoke with a slight smile. "We three, are the last few who wish to help the humans. I am Kelbroth an Ice Dragon."
"I am, Senekis, a fellow sky dragon." The grey dragon spoke
"And I guess that leaves me I am, Avik the steel dragon." The black dragon spoke
"So Kelbroth, Senekis, and Avik, you three came to find us to help us? But why?" Gajeel asked, I could feel his hostility
"Yes we were all asked by the dragons that raised you" Senekis spoke
"How, why did they contact you and not us." Wendy demanded
"Because it is not yet time." Avik butted in
"How is it not time do you see what the world has come to, what are we suppose to do, three children raised by dragons, to fight 10,000 how, how is that fair how is that possible!" I demanded answers I would get the answers
"You will do it, you are a child short it is a shame really that hot head would have helped a lot, when atlas found out of what happened he vanished and hasn't been seen since, we all got a message from them to come help." Senekis said softly "Now this place is no longer safe we must take you and all of your friends out of here to a safer area, one under our protection, so you can get stronger." Senekis bowed her head
"Fine but when we get there, we want answers. No we demand answers." Gajeel slammed his fist into his palm, he looked angry as he walked back to the guild and told everyone it was safe to come out
Mira walked out from the guild for the first time in a long time and spoke to the dragons, no one heard what she said but they nodded and asked for everyone to get on their backs, no one knew where we were going, it felt like a surprise, I looked over at Gray he was still unsure about the whole situation, I slowly pulled myself over to him "What is bugging you Gray?"
"This whole situation. You three will get stronger but the rest of us will be stuck unable to help, no more like I will be unable to help, I want to be in there in the battles with you guys. It feels like I'm doing nothing just sitting around hiding trying to help everyone." Gray sighed and looked up at the sky
"It's amazing really Gray, you're just an ice mage, who has fought the dragons, most would be terrified. Not want to rush back in to fight them all again. So my question is how will you choose to fight, how will you come to our aid?" I asked him a serious question he seemed shocked and taken back, Gray looked at me with a serious face and narrowed his eyes
"I will become a slayer, not a slayer like you guys, a Demon slayer. I have had strange visions of it, I know I can do it, it wont be easy but I'm close, I will help you three no matter what." Gray said raising his hand and grasping the air as I laid back on Kelbroths back Gray and I were but a few people who could hand his cold body almost everyone else went onto Senekis back she was much larger and could hold more, but I sure did miss this wind in my hair and this feeling of being relaxed, I wonder where we are going to be landing. Just as I finished my thought the three dragons started to descend, we landed in a run down town in front of a huge building with a torn orange flag barley being held up with the Fairy Tail crest.
"From here on we are no long freedom, we will chase the dream that everyone sought out, Fairy Tail will be reborn with a new group of children, Magnolia will flourish once again this city, now in ruins will be big once again everyone will hear the name Fairy Tail, and the three Dragonslayer's who took down the dragon horde. Senekis, Avik, and Kelbroth will you protect our dream our town, will you help us retake humanity and be part of Fairy Tail." Mira cheered raising her hand, everyone raised their hands cheering the three dragons laughed and nodded their heads. So Fairy Tail eh, I never thought I'd be here.
"Mira will you be the guild leader?" Gajeel asked her
"No I was thinking first master will be I will just help her." Mira smiled
"What do you mean first master?" I asked puzzled looking over the place I saw no one, the remaining members of fairy Fairy Tail laughed as everyone walked into the guild, a large gust ran through the old guild hall the nothing worked it was covered in dust Mira walked in looking for the guild stamp, as she panicked and looked through the drawers, she found the old stamp and everyone started lining up for a new guild mark once they got rid of their old freedom marks. I started to walk up to Mira as I wiped my Freedom mark.
"So where do you want the mark Rii?" Mira asked me, hmm where do I want this mark
"I'll have a light blue mark on my left hip" I said pulling up my shirt a bit on my left side, once the mark was on I looked around I heard a voice
"Hello all the children of Fairy Tail, I am the first master, or well a remnant of the first master, I guess you could call me a ghost, but really only people who bare the Fairy Tail crest can see me. It has been a long time a lot has changed, but I am Mavis Vermillion the First master of Fairy Tail." A small girl will long wavy blonde hair down to her feet, she had big green eyes with no irises, and small wing like things coming from the sides of her head, a long frilly pink dress with a red ribbon tied in a bow around her neck around her chest are three blue diamond patter, each with an outline of hot pink going up them she was wearing small hoop earrings as well and no shoes. I looked at her in complete shock I did not see her before this where did this little girl come from and how did she become the First Master of Fairy Tail.
Not much for fighting in this chapter, but it showed a bit of Rii's past and how she found everyone I might continue her "nightmare" in the next chapter or so to show how she met Wendy and Gajeel what happened with Natsu and what not, so let me know what you think.
Like I said prior to this I'm sorry for the delay I kind of lost interest for a little while and wasn't sure what to write but this job I have right now, its like nothing but time to think so I've been coming up with all sorts of ideas so hopefully I will be back and able to write more, because well I enjoy it, and hopefully you enjoy my story as well.
But I made Rii's background kind of darker I think really because I was watching Fairy Tail, the Eternal Magic episode all about Grays past and it kind of just flowed in a sense I guess. Gray, will eventually become a Demon Slayer not sure how to go about it but I liked the idea from the manga about him getting that power(sorry for spoilers if you haven't read it or haven't read that far.) Mavis makes an appearance with the rebirth of Fairy Tail, along with three dragons who will help train the slayers to become stronger maybe they will be able to defeat the dragons with their help we shall all see how it unfolds.
