Chapter Fifteen
New Member of Fairy Tail
Makarov was thinking as he seated right where he was. Harry can see that he was doing some thinking about what she told him.
"That`s the reason you have the Fairy Tail mark eh," he said murmuring a little.
"Yes," Harry answered him.
He chuckled.
"Well, since you`re one of us I can`t kick you out now can I?" he said giving the girl in front of him a grin.
Harry blinked at him.
"If the First Master gave you that mark then I have no say in what she did," he told her, "I must say, it`s a great honor to meet one of the First Seven."
Harry was surprised at the older man in front of her. After a second, a smile grew on her face.
"Thank you for accepting me," she said, giving her a bow.
Makarov glanced up at her.
"Well, let`s go introduce the guild to their new member," he said, getting up from where he was seating.
"W…What?" Harry said, "Why would you do that?"
"You are a Fairy Tail wizard," Makarov told her, "Magnolia is the home of Fairy Tail."
Harry blinked a little as a memory suddenly came up in her mind…
""I will wait for you to return," she said, a smile on her face even as her tears continued to fall, "You are a Mage of Fairy Tail, and Magnolia will be the home of everyone bearing the mark of my guild."
She looked downward, a melancholy feeling blossoming into her heart.
"Mercie," she whispered softly.
Makarov stared at her for a few seconds before letting out a grin.
"C`mon," he said, before stepping out of the door.
Harry followed him out and the two arrived in front of the railing looking down toward the guild Hall below them. Everyone underneath them was tied in a huge fight as they smashed each other with whatever they could find on the ground. Harry blinked a little as she stared at the fight taking place below them.
"Is that a normal occurrence?" she asked Makarov.
The old man sighed.
"Those brats," he murmured, "I swear…"
Then he jumped down toward the group, his form enlarging until he was tower above them all as he landed on the ground with a loud crash.
"CUT IT OUT YOU FOOLS," he yelled his voice deeper than it was normally.
Everyone froze in their movements, all of them glancing toward the large man that had landed in the middle of their brawl.
"Oh, Master," a young white haired girl said, smiling, "I didn`t know you were still here."
The man shrunk to his original size as everyone took their seats, thought grudgingly. An armored girl with long red hair approached him and said.
"I`m sorry Master," she said, "I should have stopped the fight from happening in the first place. If I didn`t get angry at them for stepping on my cake….Please hit me."
"It`s okay Erza," Makarov said patting the girl`s side with his hand, "Thought I expect more from one of our S Class Mage."
"Of course sir, it will not happen again," the one called Erza said, giving him a bow.
Makarov glanced around at them all.
"Now that all of you are done acting like a bunch of spoiled brats," he started, "We have a new member joining the guild today. Come down here Harry."
Thinking this was her cue; Harry jumped from where she was standing and landed beside Makarov in a crouch as the group stepped back from the master. Everyone in the guild was staring at her curiously and Harry didn`t meet any of their gaze.
"Hey, you`re that girl from before?" a familiar voice yelled.
She glanced toward it finding a familiar pink-haired Dragon Slayer.
"We meet again Natsu Dragneel," Harry told him with a small grin.
"Fight me," Natsu yelled
Harry and everyone around them sweat dropped at the Mage`s words.
"Makarov," she said, "Should I fight him?"
"Sure if you want," he told her.
Harry glanced back at the young man who was getting scolded by a busty blonde girl.
"Natsu," she said, drawing their attention toward her, "I`ll fight you if you want."
A large grin appeared on the young man`s lips as his hand suddenly burst flames.
"Prepare yourself," he yelled.
"But not inside the guild," Harry continued, "I would want the place to well…blow up or anything."
Natsu only grinned even larger.
"I don`t care where we go," he said, "all that matters is that I take you down."
Harry found herself facing the Dragon Slayer in a fight again. They had moved into the large open space behind the guild so that they could fight and everyone in the guild was watching, wanting to see who will win.
"Natsu, you already lost once," Gray said, from where he stood, "What makes you think you can win now?"
Natsu had a smirk on his face.
"Because I know I can win this time," he smirked.
Harry chuckled as she raised her hand as a large seal appeared there.
"Crystal Sword,"
A sword made of crystal appeared there and Harry took hold of it.
"I`ll only use the sword against you Dragon Slayer," she said, "That way, maybe you`ll have a chance."
From the crowds the guild was talking again.
"What kind of magic is that?" Elfman said.
"That will be Crystal Magic," Makarov said, "I…I`ve never expected to see it with my own eyes."
"Is it really that rare?" Erza asked, as she gave the master a sideway glance.
"It`s a lost Magic," Makarov told her, "It`s even rarer than Dragon Slayer Magic. It had been nearly 400 years since they have been a Crystal Mage in this world…"
"That`s impressive," Juvia said, "Juvia wonders where she had learn it."
Makarov frowned slightly.
Considering what she had told me, she had been alive ever since the Time of the First Master, he thought, That would mean she has more experience than I do and I am a Master…I wonder how powerful she truly is…
The two fighters got into their stances.
"Alright," Cana said crouched in a corner, "Place your bets on whose going to win this match, Natsu or the new girl?"
Many other Fairy Tail members were putting their bets, thought most of them were betting on Natsu and few bet that the girl would win.
Natsu wasn`t going to lose a fight again.
He now knew what kind of attacks Harry can use, meaning he can prepare more and take her down much faster. He unleashed his magical power as flames grew around his body and into his hand like a tornado of fire.
Harry herself simply stood there with her sword at the ready, waiting for him to attack and Natsu wasn`t going to disappoint her. With an almighty roar, he charged straight toward the enemy and launched a punch straight toward her face which she quickly dodged. Natsu followed her with her scent as he turned with another fist of flames aiming for Harry again and with a swipe of her sword`s side, she pushed Natsu`s hand away from her.
"At least try to hit me Dragon Slayer," Harry said, as she kicked him straight in the chest.
The kick even thought it doesn`t look like much, Natsu feel like he had being hit with Gajeel Iron Fist attack. The force behind it sends him sliding back as he stayed on the ground with a crouch.
"Oh, I will," Natsu said as he charged toward her again.
The two continued to exchange blows, thought Harry was dodging most of them, a soft smile never living her face. She looked like she was having fun with Natsu as she continued to dodge and block his attacks.
"C`mon," the pink haired young man said, "FIGHT ME SERIOUSLY."
Harry looked at him, and grinned again.
"So you finally caught on," she said.
"Well, last time we fought you were actually fighting back," Natsu said.
"I don't want to end the fight too soon," Harry said.
"FIGHT ME SERIOUSLY," Natsu yelled as he launched a large blast of fire toward her.
Harry sliced the flames into two sides with a swing of her Crystal sword and she looked up toward Natsu. Her entire expression had changed from the smiling face to a stone cold glare and Natsu swore her eyes glowed red for a second.
"As you wish," she said.
Then pure magical energy started to shine across her body, as she put her hands together along with her sword. Natsu actually stepped back a little his eyes widening.
W…What the…?
Then Harry charged straight toward him as the sky around her darkened considerably as if the pit of hell itself was behind her. Natsu stood fast as he roared, the flames growing around him.
"I`m not afraid of you," he yelled as he charged at her with a fist.
Then Harry transformed forcing Natsu to come to a stop as the dark shape grew and grew until it roared causing the young man to look up in horror. The two red eyes were staring down at him as the monster opened its jaws and came down straight toward him, the mouth impossibly large…
"AAAARGH," Natsu yelled falling down on his butt.
The sky was back to normal again as he sat there looking around himself in shock for the monster that he had seen coming toward him. Then his attention was drawn toward something by his head causing him to look at it.
Harry stood there in front of him, holding her Crystal sword right toward his face.
"You lose again, Natsu Dragneel," she said, smirking a little.
Natsu blinked in confusion.
"W…What just happen?" he said, "You turned into a monster…, and then the world turned dark and then…"
Harry smiled a little.
"That was an illusion," she said.
Natsu blinked.
"A…An illusion?" he repeated, "How? When?"
"When you looked at me in the eyes earlier after I sliced your attack into two," she said.
Natsu blinked.
"You mean, when your eyes were red…," he said remembering.
"That's right," she said.
"You cheated," Natsu said, pointing straight at her, "You said you were going to use only your sword."
The said crystal made weapon disappeared from Harry's hand.
"I did say that," Harry said, "That was because I wasn't taking you seriously Dragon Slayer. But you told me to fight you seriously so that rule was no longer applied to our fight anymore."
"Wow, it's already over," Lucy said.
Gray simply let out a tch sound, "I told him he was going to lose. That hothead never listens."
"Guess that's how it is for Natsu then," Macao said, "When he isn't fighting someone who is bend to cause destruction and chaos, he is so pathetically weak."
"You said it like a real man," Elfman said.
"What's the commotion is about?" Levy said as she stepped out of the guild's back door, "I was wondering where everyone had gone in the middle of the afternoon."
"Oh, Levy," Lucy said.
"Who is Natsu fighting against?" the young word mage asked as she stepped forward.
"A new member of Fairy Tail," Gray answered her, now mysteriously dressed in only his underwear, "Her name is Harry…she used some old magic called Crystal Magic."
Levy suddenly pressed forward, her eyes wide as she started at the person that was standing in front of Natsu.
S…She looks exactly as the person Mavis talks of from her diary, she thought.
Lucy had noticed her expression.
"Something the matter Levy?" she asked.
The girl suddenly started to shake her hands.
"No…No it's nothing."
Lucy simply stared at her, confused.
Natsu stood up from where he was seating and said.
"I'll beat you one day just you wait," he said.
Harry stared at him.
"I'm sure you will one day," she said.
That caused Natsu to frown in confusion.
"Wait…you're admitting it?"
"No one stays strong forever," Harry told him, "The next generation of wizards will always surpass the previous one. It's simply a fact of life."
"Quite an interesting way of looking at things, Harry," Makarov said as he stood in front of them.
Harry gave him a glance.
"Well, it's not a lie," she said looking at the sky, "It's just how things are."
Then she turned toward Natsu again.
"Grow strong Natsu Dragneel," she said, "For when we fight again…we will be on even grounds."
Natsu started at her in surprise at first before a grin grew on his face as he tightened up both of his hands into fist.
"I'm getting fired up by just thinking of it," he said.
Harry simply nodded at him.
