Red-threatened, angry
black- dristress of sorts
violet-nervous, scared
blue-sadness
brown-happy or blissful
Here ya go!
The next day. The guild has calmed down over Lucy's short disappearance. Nobody's Pov
"S-Class?" Lucy asked. Her silver eyes filled with curiosity at the new term.
"Yes! You, Sting, and Rogue are now considered S-class! Super powerful mages," Minerva explained while she happily gripped Lucy's arms and swung them.
"You get to do the fun, more dangerous quests, and earn lots of jewels! Since I'm only the temporary guildmaster, I am considered S-Class, as are Rufus and Orga!" She said as she pointed to the said two, who waved at them.
"Sounds fun," Lucy replied .
"It sure is!" Sting said as he wrapped his arm over Lucy's shoulder.
"We were thinking of doing a group S-class quest together," Rogue monotonously stated. "With Minerva and Rufus as well,"
"What about Orga?" Lucy asked.
"He's going off to do a solo quest,"
"Is it not strange that we are all are thirteen or younger, and we are doing such dangerous quests?" Lucy bluntly asked.
"Well we are very strong already and anyone who says otherwise will get a taste of my Dragon Force!" Sting exclaimed as he pumped his fist in the air and smirked. "Yes the great Sting-kun is the best," Lector said as he followed his owners childish actions.
"Okay, well then what quest are we going to do?" Lucy asked.
Minerva snatched a quest off the board and handed it to Lucy who said it out loud
Mission: Defeat the 'Sense Alliance' Dark guild. (Six members)
Quest Giver: Kilonir Viden
Reward:6,000,000 jewel
Location: Onibus and Onibus's Forest
"Should be easy enough," Rufus said as he walked over.
"Let's head home for the night to pack, we'll meet at the station tomorrow at 8," Rogue said.
"I'll notify the quest giver and find someone to take my duties while we're gone," Minerva said over her shoulder as she walked away.
"Let's go Lucy," Sting said as they turned to leave.
"Okay." 'This sounds like fun' Lucy thought as she followed Sting out the door, Rogue stepped beside her.
At Lucy, Sting, and Rogue's House-Morning
Lucy slept soundly, a rare occasion that is to be prayed for. She was content.
She stretched her arms above her head and looked out the window at the sun rising.
'Beautiful' She thought 'Today's going to be a fun day'
She smiled to herself as she swung her small legs over the side of the bed and went to shower and change. She had packed the previous night so all she had to do was get ready. She softly hummed to herself as she slipped on a white dress that went down just below her knees with red ribbons crisscrossing the front and tied in the back. She took her red hair ribbons and braided her hair into two large braids that stopped at her hips and tied those as well. Satisfied, she slipped on her flats, her keys, and grabbed her bag. She turned back towards the large board covered in strings and facts and images on a certain dragon.
"Goodbye, Acnologia," She said quietly as she shut the door and went to the main room.
"Good morning, Sting, Rogue." She said as she sat down and ate some fruit.
"Oh, Mornin' Luci," Sting said as he turned around with a piece of toast in his mouth
"Morning," Rogue murmured as he put on his cloak.
"It is time to go, is it not?" Lucy said as she glanced over at the clock.
"Shit! It's 7:45 Rogue!" Sting yelled as he ran out the door.
Rogues eyes widened as he followed suit.
Lucy sighed and skipped out.
"Come forth, my loyal wings," she said and she was off, ahead of both Sting and Rogue as they yelled at her. She smiled as she soared ahead and spotted Minerva and Rufus. She waved at them as she landed.
"Where's the idiot duo?" Minerva scoffed. Lucy just pointed behind her as they came up over the horizon.
"You cheater! You can fly," Sting whined as Rogue sighed.
Lucy gave them a knowing smile as she boarded the train with everyone. They found an empty car and settled down in it.
"This ride will take us two days to get to Onibus, I suggest everyone get comfy," Minerva said as she sunk into her seat and looked out the window. Rufus took out a magic book and started to read. Sting was looking extremely sick and Rogue was looking a bit green himself.
" I. . . . hate. . . .trains," Sting said as he was crawling around to try to keep from being sick. Rogue was curled up in a ball of sorts.
Lucy sighed and whipped out two keys.
"Open, Gate of the Ram, Aries!" Lucy said as she summoned the pink, shy sheep and the strong, powerful goat.
"y-yes hime?"
"Aries, could you help out my friends?" Lucy asked as she pointed to the severely affected Sting and Rogue.
"Y-Yes!" Aries squeaked out. Immediately, a bed of wool went under the two and they fell into a peaceful sleep.
"They are asleep," Aries announces shyly.
"Thank you, you may go back now," Lucy said as she smiled at Aries. And she was gone.
"I've never seen you use your spirits before," Rufus said. He had watched her summon Aries.
"Don't say use. Use is an ugly word," Lucy spat.
"How so?" Minerva asked, confused.
"They aren't just tools, they have hearts and feelings. They are my friends. I love them," Lucy said calmly
"I see," Rufus said as he smiled. 'She really is a kind person'
The rest of the ride was fairly quiet, Rufus was reading, Lucy was playing with ice dolls, she gave Minerva some too. Sting was out cold while Rogue had come to and was watching Lucy play with Minerva.
"We are stopping in Onibus, If this is your stop, please depart"
They got up and dragged Sting off of the train.
"Sweet friggin' ground!" Sting exclaimed as he bent to his knees and kissed the ground.
" Do not kiss the earth, Sting," Lucy scolded as everyone else sweatdropped.
An hour later. Client's house
Minerva led the group of powerful children as the walked up to the client's house. It was a large, upscale house. A three story victorian-style home. There were white pillars outside of the brick walls, holding up a balcony on the second floor. A large percentage of the front of the house had windows with white curtains drawn inside. Minerva raised her hand and gripped the brass knocker and knocked three times. Exactly on the third knock a tall, lean man with dark red hair answered the door wearing a pin-stripped suit.
"Why hello? Who may you people be?" he said in a polite fashion.
"We are the S-class mages you called for, from Sabertooth," Minerva announced as everyone showed their guildmarks to the man, who was very shocked.
"O-of course! Please do come in," The man stammered out as he gestured for them to walk in.
Once they were seated the man spoke up again.
"Please do forgive me for my actions, but you came as a shock. I wasn't expecting such. . . youthful mages such as yourselves. My name is Kilonir Viden. I am the son of the mayor of this city. Truth be told, he didn't want any help. But I believe it is in Onibus's best interest to get rid of this dark guild before they can do any major damage," Kilonir said as he fidgeted. He seemed a shy man.
"Major damage?" Rufus asked.
"They have done something to some of the residents. People go out into the forest and they come back spouting nonsense and they go crazy. They are often spouting nonsense about some game and how they lost. They either must be locked up or they wander around scaring anyone nearby," Kilonir explained, his confusion seeping out of his words as his body trembled.
" We will handle this dark guild quickly, we assure you," Rogue said politely as he got up to leave, the others bowed and said their goodbyes.
'I do hope they can do this.' Kilonir thought nervously as he poked his pointer fingers together.
With Sabertooth
"From what I've heard about Sense Alliance, there are six members. Each have rare and dangerous magic relating to the senses," Rufus says as they walk towards the forest.
"Sounds fun enough," Sting said as his cocky smirk found its way to his features once again.
"How should we go about this?" Lucy asked, wanting a strategy so they wouldn't go in magic blazing.
"We go in the forest. Walk around. Find the guild. And Punch them sensless!" Sting said, pausing between each step to make hand gestures to match his 'plan'.
Lucy sighed, organization would not matter here it seems. They continued to trek through the forest, tripping on roots, staring at birds, it all seemed too simple.
"Why hello there! It seems we have guests!" A booming voice called from behind them. It was a holographic figure of a tall, slightly muscular man. He had pale skin and blood red hair that was tied in a high ponytail. He was wearing a robe that was hanging off his shoulders and a ruffled shirt, with black pants and a gold belt. His face was pale and sinister. He had gold peircings in his ears and eyebrows, along with red lips that were upturned in a smirk. He looked to be in his mid 30's.
"Who are you?" Rufus said calmly.
"I am the master of the Senses Alliance! Werrolyl! Hope you're ready kitties because the game has just begun!" He laughed maniacally as a golden cane appeared with a microphone on top. He reached a white gloved hand out from under his robe and reached it out towards them.
"The pieces are all in play my dears! We are just aching to have some new players! Here are your instructions!" He said as the holograph struck a pose, raising his cane to the sky as five paths opened up in the foliage.
"These paths all lead to a game piece, an obstacle for the players to defeat. You must split up and each take a game route. Once you reach the obstacle. You must defeat it. . . or die trying," His voice toned down to a chilling whisper as he smirked.
"If you defeat the piece, another path will open for you and you must proceed and you get the next challenge. The honor of battling myself! Your worst nightmare!"
"You beat me. You beat the game."
"Good luck, little kittens," He said as he disappeared.
"Well, we all have our objectives. Let's go!" Rogue yelled as he and Frosch took a path and disappeared into the trees.
"Yes!" Everyone chimed as they took different paths.
'How fun. The game has begun.' A man thought to himself as he leaned back in his throne. Watching happily.
Yayyyyy story arc thing! Battle sequences are coming up!
Zai Jian! ;)
