"It's huge," Lucy said admiring the building. Natsu smiled down at me and took my hand.
"Welcome to Fairy Tail," he whispered. Leading me forward, he kicked the door screaming. "We're home!"
"Natsu, Happy, welcome back." looking at the girl I noticed it was Mirajane Strauss. She's seen in many Sorcerer Weekly photo shoots. Natsu left me to kick some guy in the face saying something about giving him false information.
"We really came to Fairy Tail," Lucy said.
"We really did," I said wrapping my arm around her, gazing at it's fighting members.
"Did you say Natsu's back? Hey, let's settle our fight from last time!" The black haired boy walked past me in his boxers.
"What rubbish," a deep voice said from behind us. The tall man went to join the fight, only to get knocked away by Natsu and the stripper boy. I giggled as Lucy found out how much of a player Loke was.
"What's with this place," my sister grumbled. "None of then are normal."
"A newcomer," Mirajane asked. I shook my head as Lucy started squealing.
"Sorry about her," I laughed. "I'm Traci."
"It's wonderful to meet you," she smiled.
"Don't you have to stop them," Lucy asked pointing to the commotion.
"It happens all the time. You don't have to worry about it. Besides," she started. I ducked quickly as a bottle hit her head. "Isn't it fun this way?"
"Hey, watch where you're throwing things," I growled. Suddenly the dark haired boy from earlier landed in front of us, without his boxers.
"Natsu," I yelled. The pink haired boy picked me up and set me down at the counter. He then turned around to confront the boy, yelling insults at him.
"This is getting a little too intense," Mirajane said from beside me.
"That's enough," a voice thundered. In front of the hall was the shadow of a giant man. I could sense he was the master due to the massive amounts of magic energy rolling off him. "Cut it out, you fools!"
Everyone immediately froze what they were doing and turned to the master. I giggled as Natsu got cocky, getting stepped on as result.
"Newcomers," he inquired looking at my sister and I. Using his magic, he shrunk down to his normal size. I walked up to Natsu as the master started complaining about the Council reports. My mate smiled at me as Happy flew into my arms.
"But," the master said gaining my attention. "Forget about the council members. The power to overcome reasoning is born from reasoning. Magic is not a miracle. When the spirit flow within us and the spirit in nature connects, they will form an embodiment for the first time. You will need a strong mentality and a lot of concentration for that. I mean, pouring all of your soul into whatever you do is magic. If you keep worrying about the watchful eyes of the higher-ups, your magic won't improve. Do not fear the fools of the council. Do whatever you think is right. That is the way of the Fairy Tail mages!" Soon all of the guild hall was cheering. I laughed as Natsu hugged me and spun around.
Everyone began to break apart and do their own thing. Natsu grabbed a table and started eating what Mira calls the "Natsu Special". This consists of fire pasta, fire chicken, and a fire drink. Lucy got her guild mark on her hand, in pink. Mine is on my hip, in gold.
"Natu, look," Lucy called. "She gave me the Fairy Tail mark."
"Good for you, Luigi," he said uninterested.
"Don't be like that, Natsu," I whined. I draped myself on his back and wrapped my arms around his neck.
"Fine," he huffed. The other guys' jaws dropped. Natsu rolled his eyes and stood up, taking me to the job board.
"Let's choose one with a good reward," Happy said.
"How about this one," I asked pointing to a paper. "160,000 jewels for exterminating thieves." Natsu took the request from me to read it.
"Is my daddy back yet?" Natsu and I turned to see a little boy talking to the master.
"You're annoying," Master Makarov said. "If you are the son of a mage, trust your father, be a good boy, and wait at home."
"He said he'd come back in 3 days, but it's been a week since then," little Romeo argued.
"Macao's on a job at Mount Hakobe, isn't it?"
"It's not that far either. Please look for him! I'm worried about him!"
"No way! Your dad is a mage. We have no mage here who can't take care of themself. Go home and drink your milk or something," Master yelled.
"Idiot," Romeo cried punching the master in the face.
"Are we going after him," I whispered watching the little boy run out.
"Yeah," Natsu growled slamming the quest into the board. I held his hand as he stormed out, Happy right behind us.
"Romeo," I called. The boy turned around, wiping his tears. "I'm Traci. Natsu and I will bring your father back, we promise."
"Are you Natsu's girlfriend," the boy asked.
"Yeah she is," Natsu said. "We'll get Macao back." Romeo cheered as we walked away. We hitched a ride in a wagon, up the mountain. The motion sickness was horrible.
"I'm sorry," the driver said. "We can't go any further in this carriage." Opening the door, I was blasted with cold air. I squealed and hid behind Natsu, shivering.
"Here," he said draping his blanket around me. I lifted part of it to cover my head and snuggled into Natsu.
"You're warm," I mumbled. The boy just chuckled and wrapped his arm around my waist. "So what exactly are we up against?"
"Macao's mission was to subdue the brutal monster, Balkan," Natsu explained. Calling out for the missing man, I heard shifting. The Balkan jumped down and attacked the two of us. I jumped out of the way, making sure to keep the blanket around me. Natsu went to hit the monster when it changed directions, straight towards me.
"A human woman," he grabbed me in its arms and carried me away.
"Hey," the boy yelled. "Let her go."
"Natsu hurry your ass up," I yelled squirming around. The monster ignored me and continued running, my mate chasing after us.
