Excalibur Edge!
10 Years Later...
"Man...what's taking him so long?" A young man complained as he and his partner were surrounded by a large group of mages from a nearby group of bandits. They were standing by a cave in the woods, surrounded. Also by the cave was some sort of mansion or staying quarters, most likely where the bandits had stayed or met up. Much like a Guild Hall.
"He should have it by now right? Master told us not to cause too much of a scene and we're out here dealing with these foot soldiers while he's having all the fun." His female counterpart sighed. The young girl is nineteen years of age. She stands at six feet in height. She is rather slim, with fairly large breast, with a slight tan. She has waist length black hair with streaks of crimson highlights, she has bangs that sweep sideways covering her left eye, though you can still see her silver catlike eye with it's flecks of violet. She has a series of black tribal tattoos that curl around her left leg and around her midriff. She is currently wearing an all black tank top, with black cargo shorts, black thigh length boots, and black fingerless gloves. In black on her left shoulder, the girl had some sort of insignia. It was a symbol of a sword surrounded by a circle with four points around the circle that could form a an X if they were to connect. This girls name is Starphire Hellstorm.
Her male counterpart is nineteen as well and also stands at six feet in height, with light tan skin. His build is one of a very muscular and athletic type, with a series of black tribal tattoos circling his left bicep and right forearm. He too has black hair with crimson highlights that reaches down to his shoulders, and sweeps sideways covering his left eye while leaving his violet specked silver right eye exposed. He is currently wearing an all black shirt, which is beneath his black leather jacket, he also dons black leather fingerless gloves, black leather jeans, and black combat boots. On his right shoulder in black he had the same insignia as his female counterpart did. His name is Sterling Hellstorm. The Hellstorm Twins.
"You guys should just turn and run while you still can! We have you surrounded!" One bandit shouted.
"Yeah you're right you got us surrounded..." Sterling sighed and then looked over at his twin sister, "I guess Seth has given us no choice huh?"
"Yeah..." Starphire smiled, "It was getting boring after all." The two held their hands out and in unison they both cried out:
"Requip!"
"Whoa!" Quickly a young man had avoided a blast of magic as he turned around to see someone chasing after him.
"Really? You're going to chase after 'lil ole' me?" The nineteen year old teased.
"You get back here!"
"But I'm only stealing back what belongs to the rightful owners." The young man teased as he lifted a small bag before him and shook it. From the bag it sounded as though there was loose change in there or something.
"Those jewels are mine!" The man shouted.
"Eh, I don't think that's what my Guild Master said. And so therefore you lose!" The young man lifted his leg high up in the air and slammed it down creating a large cloud of smoke to appear.
"They keep getting up..." Sterling looked around at the fallen bandits as more and more got up.
"Well how we going to make them stay down?" Starphire asked.
"Hmph..." Sterling smiled, "Don't worry I already got a plan."
"Awesome!" Starphire cheered, "Now make it work!"
"Don't rush me..." the male twin rolled his eyes.
"HA!" Suddenly someone had come bursting out of the bandits mansion holding a bag of jewels.
"Seth?" The twins raised an eyebrow as the slim, muscular, and toned slightly tan nineteen year old. His wild, unkempt, black hair jutes out in just about every direction. The two could see the joy in his face through his big silver eyes. He is currently wearing a sleeveless low V-neck black GI, with a red sash around his waist, red wristbands on both wrists, white loose pants, and black shoes. He landed and did a small roll into the group of bandits with his friends. On his shoulder in black, was the same insignia as the Hellstorm Twins.
"Excalibur Edge we're done here!" He chuckled right before he dashed away.
"Damn it Seth..." Sterling tsked and shook his head before realizing that his sister, Starphire, had followed right behind Seth. Leaving him by himself.
"Well isn't that just great..." Sterling hissed right before he dashed and left as well.
"Job well done you guys!" Volker grinned. Volker is now older, yet his blonde hair remains messy and unkempt and he has bangs that frame both sides of his face. He had a big smile on his face while looking at the trio before him with his brown eyes. He is rather lean and well built, which is clearly seen since he wears no shirt, but has some sort of long flowing coat draped on his shoulders. Also, since he bears no shirt, you can see a large X-shaped scar across his body. He wears loose white pants, and black shoes, along with two black wristbands on both wrists.
"We really did well?" Seth asked excited.
"Well...no. You guys did cause some sort of uproar. The cave that the bandits were hiding by was home to a large family of Gorians...which went and rampaged all over them and a nearby town."
"Crap so we gotta go back and fix it?" Sterling asked.
"No, Wyvern Wing was in town to stop it luckily."
"Wyvern Wing..." Seth muttered.
"Luckily you finished the job though, so no harm no foul...I guess..." Volker scratched the back of his head, "Well you guys are free to go."
"Man..." Seth pouted placing his hands behind his head as he began to walk off, being soon followed by his partners Sterling and Starphire.
"Wyvern Wing strikes again...as one of the best Guild's currently in Fiore." Starphire hissed as the trio walked through the Guild Hall of Excalibur Edge.
"Seems like whenever something goes wrong for us, even after a success, they are always them to fix it and make them look better." Sterling surmised.
"Will we ever catch a break?" His sister asked.
"Probably not."
"Uhhh..." Seth groaned.
"What's wrong Seth?" Sterling asked.
"I'm heading out...see ya guys tomorrow." Seth then dashed off in a random direction once the trio had stepped outside.
"Guess I better get back..." Starphire sighed, "Got places to be."
"Oh yeah, like where?" Sterling raised an eyebrow.
"Got a party to be at." Starphire smiled kissing her 'older' twin brother on the cheek before dashing off as well.
"Party? What party?! What are you talking about?!" Sterling shouted after his sister.
Seth had just roamed the town thinking about Wyvern Wing. They were the number one Guild in Fiore and he hated it. He was born and raised in Excalibur Edge since he was nine years old. He loves the Guild, and knows they have what it takes to be the best. They just never get a real chance to show it. He looked up at the sky as it slowly turned to night. He sighed and looked up at the slow moving moon with his arms behind his head and continued to walk around the town.
"There he is...the child from years ago..." A mysterious masked being in the night kept an eye down on the young Excalibur Edge mage. The masked man just continued to watch and soon he sent out a Telepathic message.
"I've found him...let us gather and strike as one. Master warned us to be weary of what this one is capable of, even with us."
"Roger..." Two voices replied back in unison.
"Now child...let's see what makes you see worthy...
Seth finally came to a stop in his walk. He looked out to the ocean and a small smile appeared etched upon his face. He looked out in admiration of it's vastness. Then he remembered what Master Volker had told him one day:
"Magic is like the ocean...it's capabilities are vast, a mage's potential with it is limitless, and even with as much as we know there's still much to learn." Seth then turned around and cracked his neck, "So you guys done following me or what?"
"Oh so you were aware of us huh?" A voice asked as three masked men had appeared from the shadows. On the left was a man who was rather slender, skinny, and lanky. He was dressed in all white. He wore a white shirt, then on top was a white vest with gold trimmings, along with a golden high collared long flowing jacket with gold trimmings as well, white slacks, white shoes, and white gloves. He wore an all black mask with a white dot in the center of his forehead.
On the right was a larger, more muscular looking man dressed in all black. He wore a black long sleeve shirt underneath a black flowing coat that dragged on the ground behind him, and had purple trimmings, he also wore black slacks with stripes of purple down the side, and had slits down the calf, he wore black combat boots, and black gloves. The mask he wore was as white as snow, with a black circle in the middle of his forehead.
Then finally the man in the middle. He appeared slightly shorter than both men to his sides. He appeared to be of average weight and build. He wore a grey shirt underneath a long flowing robe that was as black as moonless sky in the night on the right side, while on the left side of the robe it was as white as snow. On his left arm there were two golden stripes on his bicep, while on his right arm there was a single stripe of purple on his bicep and another stripe of purple on his forearm. On his left hand he wore a black glove with a white circle on the back of the hand, and then on his right hand he wore a white glove with a black circle on the back of his hand. His pants were loose and were also mixed. The right half was as white as snow, and the left side was pitch black. He wore shoes that mixed with the pants as well, black on the right, white on the left. Then finally his mask. His mask was split right down the middle, the left side was pitch black, and the right side was snow white, with a circle right in the middle of his forehead that mixed as well into a single point.
"Who are you guys?" Seth asked.
"We? Are simply known as The Trio." The man in the middle was first to speak.
"The Trio? Can I get names..."
"My name is Tao..." The man in the middle introduced, "To my left is my pal in white, his name is Yang..."
"..." The man in white, Yang, simply bowed politely.
"Then on my right is Yin..."
"..." The man in all black, Yin, crossed his arms and raised his head high acting as though he were superior than Seth.
"Okay so you're The Trio...now what do you want?" Seth asked.
"Nothing much we're just here to help is all." Tao nodded.
"Help who?"
"To help you...help us...help our Master."
"Whi-"
"Enough Talk! Yin! Yang! Go!" Suddenly the man in white had leaped in the air. Seth looked up to see where he would come from, only to get blasted back by Yin.
"Ooof!" Seth was sent crashing right into a building.
"Man...today is just not my day." Seth stood up and dusted himself off. Yin had suddenly appeared in front of him as he placed his hand in front of Seth's chest. A magic circle had appeared and suddenly a black blast of energy sent Seth flying.
"Aaaahhh!" Seth was sent crashing once more.
"Uhhh...damn it." Seth muttered as he looked up to see Yang coming down with both hands extended out circle in bright spheres of light. The man in white placed his hands together and sent out a single blast of light towards Seth. Seth pushed himself out of the way avoiding the attack.
"Crap...these guys come out of nowhere and want to fight?" Seth darted his eyes looking for them. He couldn't fid Yin or Yang, or even Tao. Suddenly Yin was in front of him again and Yang was behind him. Both had one hand out stretched and placing it on Seth. He was squished between the two.
"Oooohhh...they wanna knock you out early!" Tao observed as he floated above the battle.
"..." Yang nodded to Yin.
"..." Yin responded with a nod as well. Two magic circles appeared as both of their hands were consumed by a sphere of light, and a sphere of darkness. The two spheres exploded and enveloped Seth in the blast.
"Aaaaahhhhhh!" A large tower of black and white magic energy rose high and pierced the sky.
"What in the world..." Sterling thought as he looked out from his balcony, "Looks like that light is coming from the docks..."
"I'll be right back, need to get some air." Starphire smiled at some guy she had just met. She and her friend walked out from the party they were in to get some air.
"Crazy in there huh?" Her friend asked.
"Oh you know it.." Starphire smiled, "Probably one of the best we've been too this week."
"Totally..." Her friend smiled, "Hey...what's that?" Starphire's friend pointed to a large pillar of black and white light.
"Hmmm? Must be some sort of light show." Starphire shrugged.
"At the docks?"
"...the docks?" Starphire repeated, then began to ponder.
"...what in the world..." A young man thought as he was in the forest. He saw the light piercing the sky, and in that instant took off towards it.
"So...still standing eh?" Tao asked as Seth was hunched over from the attack.
"Hmph...seems so..." Seth grinned, "And now...I know what you guys are capable of."
"Hmm? So you were just measuring Yin and Yang's magic levels?"
"Kind of..." Seth repeated, "and now that I have a taste...it's time..."
"For what?" Tao asked.
"For me to burn it all down..." Seth muttered, "Bellow...of the Flame God!"
Hey Everybody! Hope you like the first real chapter! It's longer than I had originally expected though lol, oh well. But ummm...I kind of have some good news and bad news. Good news is: The first chapter is done yeaaahh and I actually really like it so I hope you do too.
Bad News: So as wonderful and grateful I am for the wonderful and amazing Oc's that you all have sent in, it's very one sided Guild wise. As in mostly everybody wants to be part of Excalibur Edge, which I can understand but there's only like 2 people in Hydra Fang(including the Guild Master), 1 in Titan Heart I'm pretty sure, and maybe 2-3 in Wyvern Wing. The rest is split between Red Asura and Excalibur Edge, with the large majority going to the latter. So we kind of have to fix that. Considering that there was another guild(Spirit Bones) I had taken the Guild down and now here are the Guild choices:
1) Excalibur Edge(FULL)
2) Wyvern Wing(Guild Master Needed)
3) Titan Heart(Guild Master Needed)
4) Red Asura
5) Hydra Fang
Now the reason I bring this up is simply due to the fact that we need to split the Oc's up, or make more. Think of it this way, what would Fairy Tail be like if they never had to fight another Guild that was on equal levels with them? It be boring to watch an army take down 3-6 mages. So if you would like you can PM me and request a Guild change or create another Oc for a different Guild if you would like to. I really hope I didn't come off as too rude or demanding and apologies if I do, but it just had to be done. So let's figure this out and make the story even more interesting by doing so :D hope you enjoyed the chapter and Thank you for Reading :D
Next Time: Seth reveals his magic against The Trio and he does just fine holding off the two. But eventually Tao considers joining in the frey as well. Will this affect the outcome? Or will someone come to Seth's aid before things get to serious?!
Find out Next Time on...Fairy Tail: The Broken Destiny!
