Chapter 8

Ari here with another chapter, hopefully it's better than the last one. I do not own Fairy Tail. ENJOY!

Chapter 8 First Meeting

Sting's POV

"Sting! Wake up, we're here," my eyes snap open to see Lectors face up close; I almost screamed seeing it so close. "C'mon Sting, we're here and you gotta get off the train before it starts moving again," the cat said jumping off the seat and walking down the aisle. I get up following the cat stretching my arms after my 4 hour nap.

Rouge and Frosch were in front of us and the first to get off the train. I look around and my eyes could help but admire the beautiful village, must be awesome to live in a place like this. The village was guarded by tall mountains and had a deep forest north-east of the village, the sky was dotted with white, poofy things and the sun was shining brightly

We had to wander around the village before we found the person who sent Sabertooth the request. He was the mayor of the village and he said something about Baborias attacking some of the residents and wanting us to patrol the town before the Bapurias attack and stuff, I don't really know I wasn't paying attention. "I recommend seeing one of the residents in the small house east of this village, she's had the most encounters with the Bamoria since she lives closer to the Batanya Forest (A/N: The name of the forest where all the Bamorias keep coming from). I trust she can help you with your mission. We've estimated that the Bamorias will attack in a week or two thank to one of the eldest residents (A/N: Shaula and her psychic-ness, if you don't know). If you succeed in saving the village from the swarm, you will be granted the reward money promised," he said then excusing us from his home. This seems easy enough.

"Wait, what are we supposed to do the whole time here," I asked Rouge who pinched the bridge of his nose in annoyance, "You really should pay more attention; he said we need to patrol the village to make sure the Bamorias don't harm the residents. But since we know nothing about these Bamorias, I think we should visit the person that he was talking about for help," he explained, "We don't need help, we're dragon slayers!," I said rather boastfully, "like I said, we don't know anything about these Bamorias, and If they needed to contact our guild for help when they already have someone who can defeat a Bamoria here, then this must be serious," he said quickly beating my argument.

"Fine, all we gotta do right now is go talk to this person and kill a bunch of monsters," I say plainly, "Simplified, yes. I think he said that they lived east of this village," he said then looking around and changing directions so we would be walking east. I wonder just how strong is this person if they think she's strong enough to help defeat an army of beasts, probably not that strong, I mean, I'm the great Sting Eucliffe.

"Hey Sting, what are you gonna do with the reward money," Lector asked making me snap out of my thoughts, "huh? Oh, I'm probably gonna buy food," I said plainly, "Of course you would," Rouge said not making eye contact with me, "Fro thinks so too," Frosch agreed… as always. I looked back ahead and saw the house presumably where we were supposed to go. "Think that's it?" I asked Rouge gesturing to the house that was separated from the village, "Yes," Rouge said with his usual emotionless voice. I walked up to the house and looked through the high, small window to see if anyone was inside. "No one's inside, maybe they're not home," I shrugged, "Let's check the back of the house I heard something or someone back there.

We make our way around the house and Rouge was right, at the back of the house was what looked like a training area, and there was a girl with blood red hair in a braid with a blind hold over her eyes and wielding a katana slicing at figures of humans made of fire. Surprisingly, she was able to strike the figures without missing and without needing to use her eyesight. Maybe she was training her other senses to detect when someone is near. She must have been the girl who had the encounters with the Balorias if she was this good. I was about to speak up but I stopped after I heard a bark from the distance. The girl stopped fighting and the flame summons vanished. There creature was getting closer and was going to pounce on her anytime. I started running toward the creature so it wouldn't hurt her; we have a job to do after all. She removed her blindfold and was about to get tackled by the vicious beast. I had to think and act quickly. "White dragon's Roar," I shouted jumping in front of her and sending the creature flying, also making the girl stumble back and fall while dropping her katana in surprise.

I turn around to face her, "You ok?" I ask offering my hand to help her up, which she accepted. "Yeah, I'm fine. Who are you?" she asked as I pull her up from the ground. "My name is Sting Eucliffe," I say with a grin, then pulling my brother over putting my arm over his shoulders, "This is my brother Rouge Cheney and we're two awesome wizard from Sabertooth," I say keeping my grin on while my brother kept his blank face clearly not amused. "Guild wizards? You must be the ones who came here to help our village." She said, "Yep, they sure are, and they're the best wizards from our guild," Frosch says walking with Lector to the three of us. "OH my gawsh! you're so cute," she said running over to the exceeds and squeezing the life out of Lector, then letting go of Lector and patting Frosch's head careful not to hurt him, "Well let me tell you this, our village is grateful to have you here," she said standing back up. I wonder, how could someone be so strong, yet be so cute.

"You wouldn't happen to be the person who's had the most encounters with those Bamoria Beasts," Rouge said taking my arm off of his shoulders. "Yep, that's me, why do you need to know," she asked with a bright smile, "Well, the mayor sent us here to ask you for help since we don't know much about Bamorias," he Rouge explained. "So you want to know about Bamoria's huh. I'll tell you this, Bamorias are vicious creatures that have no hearts and all they want to do is kill every last one of us," she said in a calm and low voice, then moving her bangs from her eye to reveal a scar that looked like someone clawed her, presumably the Batorias.

"When did these Bamorias first show up," I ask the red head, "About two months ago when I was training. My master told me that this was the first time they've come out of the Batanya forest in 55 years." She said putting her hand down, she wasn't smiling anymore, maybe just bad memories of the Badorias. "Interesting," Rouge said rubbing his chin, "I wonder why they've only started showing up now," Lector shrugged.

"JUNE! WE NEED MORE FISH, CAN YOU GO DOWN TO THE MARKET AND GET SOME!" I heard at cranky old voice screech. "Sorry, I have to go," She said grabbing a satchel on the ground and running towards the village and then stopped and looked back at the four of us and waving, "My name's June by the way," she said turning back around and continued running.

Well wasn't she a really nice person, I look forward to fighting alongside her. I think I'm getting too attached to her already. Eh, doesn't matter, she is a really likable and powerful person after all.

I think this chapter makes up for the crappy chapter before this one. I feel so proud of myself for finally finishing this, I also purposely made Sting say Bamoria wrong every time. Also if you're wonder what Bamorias look like, they look like navy blue werewolves with red spikes and its back. If you liked this chapter, 'cause I know I did, favorite, follow and review are appreciated.
