Chapter 2
Hearing his request, the girls smiled and simultaneously replied, "Hai!" They walked in the door with confidence, heads held high, shoulders rolled back, big smiles on their faces, and stopped in front of Master. They looked unsure about who would speak first but eventually decided by playing rock, paper, scissors. "Jankenpon!" Megane played Ki-chan and won. With the other pair, Shorty won over Blondie. The two winners then played each other while the losers did the same. Readying themselves again, they yelled "Jankenpon!" This time, Megane lost to Shorty. Ki-chan lost to Blondie. (A/N: as they are my OCs I, the author, reserve the right to call them by their description before their names are revealed, which will happen veeery soon. I promise. )
"Oh man!", she cried," I can't believe I lost again!"
"Guess you just have bad luck today", Blondie shrugged nonchalantly.
"You don't need to rub it in." Ki-chan replied.
"I wasn't trying to rub it in!" Blondie defended.
"Right. Whatever."
Blondie opened her mouth to retort back but she never got the chance. Megane, impatient of their childish squabbling and embarrassed by the many amused eyes watching them, interrupted the fight. Whacking the both of them hard, she said as quietly as she could (but the guild still heard her 'cause they were really quiet), "You guys~ just stop talking so we can start introducing ourselves." Luckily for the duo rubbing their heads and groaning in pain, they were smart enough to look at Megane's eyes before replying. Why? Because said girl was glaring at them with a demonic look in her eyes equal in scariness to Erza's. Yes, Megane can be scary when she wanted to be. Natsu caught the whole exchange and shuddered, thinking She's just like Lucy when she gets mad. Happy, poor unfortunate Happy, was standing right behind the two girls and received a full view of the evil glare. He thought She's scaryyyyyyy, and immediately edged closer to Natsu. Noticing the obvious cowering of the people in front of her, Megane blinked, her eyes immediately softening. She blushed and apologized while giving them a deep bow. "Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry. Did I scare you? I'm soo sorry..."
"Eh?! It's ok, I wasn't scared or anything." Natsu said bravely, despite shivering with fear earlier. Beside him, Happy nodded vigorously. He, like his master, would not admit that he was scared of the newcomer. Of course he wasn't scared, not at all.
Megane raised her head and gave a them a bright smile. She observed that the guy she scared had bright pink hair. Weird hair color. Looks good on him though. Then, shifting her eyes, she looked around at the duo she had hit earlier. They were still holding their heads and glaring at each other but, Megane noted with relief, dared not do anything again lest they get more than a hit-and-glare. Shorty, getting fed up with the situation, took charge.
Clapping her hands to get attention, she exclaimed, " Hai! Atashi wa namae wa Arisu. (translation: Yes! My name is Alice.) I use fire magic. " At this, everyone gasped. Some even glanced at Natsu to see his reaction. Natsu, on the other hand, was very excited. He couldn't wait to get to know a fellow fire mage. When he first heard her mention her magic, his ears perked right up and his interest shot up out of the roof. He badly wanted to befriend the girl but decided to wait until introductions were over. He was secretly afraid of Megane's retribution if he interrupted. The others, seeing Natsu behaving himself, were mildly shocked but shrugged it off. Alice, and co., had noticed the gasps, though they chose to move on. Resuming her introduction, Alice continued cheerfully, "I love the color red and I'm nice." She paused for a moment before adding, "Unless you make me mad, steal my things, hurt my friends and or family or do anything bad. Then, I won't be nice. (here, she glared a little at everyone to get her point across before brightening up and smiling) Anyways, yoroshiku ne!"
Next was Megane. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Then, pasting on a wide smile on her face she opened her eyes and said, " Ohayo minna-san. Watashi wa namae wa Arumi. Jyuurokku sai.(translation: Good morning everyone. My name is Arumi.16 years old.) My favorite color is green. Just like Arisu said, if you anger me, (Megane's face darkened and Natsu and Happy started to shiver uncontrollably) or any of them (nodding towards the girls), then prepare for hell (insert evil smirk)." Then she smiled a full smile before giving them a chirpy " Domoyoroshiku! (translation: best regards A/N: translate dot google dot com, I love you) " and bowing once more. Arumi felt like she had forgotten something in her introduction but she couldn't remember what it was. That is, until Arisu poked her in the sides, earning a loud yelp similar to a puppy that got its tail stepped on from the girl. Well, that, and a confused "What?"
To which Arisu replied with a simple, " Magic."
"Huh?" Arumi asked, still majorly confused.
"Magic." Arisu repeated, stressing the word.
Again, she was met with another questioning look from Arumi. Giving up, she sighed in frustration.
Arumi, still puzzled but getting increasingly more annoyed with every action of Arisu, repeated "What?". She was irritated. She wanted to figure out what she forgot! She knew it was important. Now, what was it again?
Then, Ki-chan, sensing the tension in the air, snapped her fingers. "I got it!" Everyone looked at her. She, however, ignored them, instead, turning to Arumi. "Mi-chan, you forgot to tell them what your magic is! I think that's what Ri-chan was getting at!"
Comprehension dawning on her formerly confused face, she breathed out an "Oh! Right. Thanks." Turning to Arisu, she whispered, "Thanks for reminding me."
"No prob." Arisu whispered back, before muttering under her breath. "Glad you finally got it.."
Clearing her throat and ignoring Arisu's complaint, Arumi added, "I use a combination of ice and water magic."
Seeing that she was done, Blondie quickly stepped up. She spoke in a sweet melodious voice. "Atashi wa Merodi desu! (translation: I am Merodi!) I am twelve years old. I like colorful things, especially those that are yellow, blue, and pink. I love animals and I'm a air magic user. Usually, I'm a okay and cheerful girl...That is, until you make me mad or I'm in a bad mood. So please don't make me mad and you'll be safe." She finished with her signature innocent smile.
Ki-chan, deciding to get introductions over with, walked next to Merodi. Drawing in a deep breath of air, she opened her mouth and yelled energetically, " Yosh! Minna-san, atashi wa Niki. (translation: Right! Everyone, I am Niki.) I don't like pink. My favorite color is purple. I use earth magic." Like the other three before her, Niki paused, putting on a menacing expression with a bone-chilling growl to match, she threatened, " Make me mad and I'll bury you alive. In other words, don't mess with me." She switched back to normal. "Oh, and I'm fourteen and Arisu is fifteen but still shorter than I am." She informed while leaning on Arisu. Of course Arisu got mad. She tried to calm herself but Niki kept doing it. Eventually, Arisu burst and jabbed Niki really hard with her elbow, causing the girl to double over and fall to the ground. Before that, Arumi and Merodi had wisely stepped out of the way. They acted like this sort of thing happened often. Everyone else sweat dropped. Some of them now fostered a newfound respect (and some fear) for the newcomers.
After introductions were over, Master clapped his hands twice to get attention. Addressing the girls, he said emotionally, "Good job! I admire your loyalty to your family. You are hereby accepted into Fairy Tail. From now on, you are part of our Fairy Tail family. Please treat all of my children well. Please come with me to get your stamps and then I'll leave you to get acquainted with your new family. "
Smiling, the girls answered, "Hai!"
They then followed Master to his office. The members of Fairy Tail knew then that things at the guild would be rowdier than it used to because the girls are really quite entertaining, not to mention interesting. After all, they hadn't had any new people apply to be members for quite some time now. And, certainly not four girls at the same time when they could have applied at all-girls Mermaid Heel. Apparently, new generation mages prefer power-thirsty Sabertooth or other guilds over Fairy Tail who was infamous for its powerful but destructive members. Down by the bar, Master Macarov beamed at the strange newcomers before leading them upstairs to his office.
