Chapter One
Hargeon, a port town in Fiore, whose main industry is fishing. Less than ten percent of the people in the town are mages and there is only one magic shop in the whole town. And that's where we find our S class Wizard Saint, Narakuryu and his friends. Narakuryu and his friends had come to Hargeon to pick up some supplies that they needed; a few swords, duel disks, gate keys, and other magical weapons and implements. Narakuryu and his former guild split up and combed the city for various magic shops. He entered a particularly small one near the center of Hargeon. He walked in, and noticed that the shelves were packed with many lower-level magic items. He turned to leave, but one of the customers caught his eye.
"Excuse me, do you have any celestial keys?" the girl was talking to the old man behind the counter.
"I think I only have one in stock, you should really go to a more major city like Magnologia if you want powerful magic" replied the old man in a wheezy voice.
"well which one is it?"
"It's the key of the white doggy, he's not ver-"
"Really? you have that key? How much for it?"
"err... its twenty thousand jewels, ma'am"
"Ehhh? Can't you lower the price even a little bit?" she began to plead,
"No I'm afraid not"
As soon as she started making seductive poses, Narakuryu decided to leave. When he walked out he ran into a group of girls running to the center of town shouting about some famous wizards were visiting the town.
"DID YOU HERE? THE FAMOUS SHADOWMYTH IS HERE IN TOWN!" they yelled as they raced to the center of town.
Narakuryu started sweating bullets, thinking that the council had found out about him and his guildmates still traveling together and taking jobs. He followed the girls to the town square and saw them all fawning over a bluenette guy in a white button-up shirt, red pants, and a purple cape. He nearly fell to the ground in laughter. Soon the cheering teens and young adults noticed the laughter among the praise. They stopped and turned to see who it was.
"Hey! What's so funny?" one of them demanded. A symphony of agreeing voices could be heard in response.
"What's funny, is that this guy's a joke." Wrong choice of words. The girls, half weeping and half shouting, tackled him full on. He withstood the brunt of 200+ girls ramming into him with ease, and casually brushed past them. He politely found his way up to the fake wizard and requested to see his hand.
"Heh, why not pretty boy? Here! take a good look at these hands! They've taken down hundreds of monsters that would simply flick a guy like you away!..." Bora said.
Ignoring the endless river of bullshit coming from the man's mouth, Narakuryu shook his hand, and slyly took his rings.
The rings are what made all the girls want to see him, rings of temptation and fame. Rings that would only work on civilians or low level wizards. While walking away with his loot, he noticed the girl from the store in the crowd. She wasn't awestruck by the wizard, but she was pissed. Pissed that she'd been tricked.
"Hey! You! with the blond hair!" Narakuryu shouted.
"Ah, who said that?" She said, shocked at the fact she'd just been called out in the middle of the crowd.
"Over here! I hear that you're a wizard too! How about some lunch? I'll buy." Narakuryu offered.
"Sorry, but I've got plans for lunch already!" the girl replied.
The crowd of girls began to disperse, and the man was left gawking at his right hand.
"Okay, maybe later eh?" he suggested.
"Sure thing, mister... err.." she said.
"Narakuryu." said Narakuryu.
"Ahh, nice to meet you! I'm Lucy!" Lucy replied as they walked away from the square.
With that Narakuryu went to find his friends and see if they found anything useful. Nothing. A whole day in a port town, with easy access to all coastal magic depots in the continent, and they had nothing to so for it. Not a single high level magic item in the town.
"Well maybe we could get a decent bite to eat while we're here." suggested Hikari in her soft, sing-song voice.
"Oooooh yess" replied Frizzi, "Some fish would be greatly appreciated, especially after our travels." The cat's agreement was followed by others.
Hikari was a short, young girl. Orphaned at birth, she spent her time with the Light Dragon Asanohi, who raised her before disappearing seven years ago. Soon after she was adopted, but only had a year to get to know her family. At the age of 13 she was on her own after her town was obliterated by Deliora. Her parents died in the fighting while she was out buying some new supplies for her terminally ill grandfather, who soon passed away due to a heart attack. She had light brown hair that came down to her chest and deep green eyes. She was one of the two dragon slayers in the group, and was specialized in light magic. She'd met Frizzi while fishing in a river. Hikari spotted the light grey cat swimming in the pond with a bright yellow triangle on each wing. They began to spend their time together, and soon became inseparable. They joined the Mythmaster guild after Narakuryu saved them from an attacking demon.
"I concur, as I too am hungry as hell," Albert said as he clutched his stomach, his deep voice laden with a german accent. By far the oldest in the group, Albert was still very strong and firm. He had uncontrollable grey hair that stuck out at every direction, as well as a luscious mustache. He had brown eyes, and was about six feet tall. Relatively spindly, he was still very flexible for the age of 72. He could control all forms of inorganic matter. Be it a wall, a car, or a stool he could control it. However, it would have to be available for him to manipulate, as he cannot create the objects his magic requires.
"Come on, let's go. I could eat a horse!" yelled an impatient Kage.
"Do we have to? It's so troublesome to walk and find a restaurant," complained the black cat next to him.
Kage was very muscular, and very, very fast. He was quite agile and had black, fluffy, crazy hair. His eyes were pitch black, even the "whites" were black. This is due to his Shadow Dragon Slayer magic. He ran away from home at the age of three, looking for adventure. He managed to survive for a full year before being found unconscious by the Shadow Dragon Nightwalker, who quite literally took him under his wing. After many years of vicious training that took place predominantly at night, he came back to Valley of Shadows and couldn't find Nightwalker. He panicked and slammed head first into a tree. A cat with wings, Shikamaru, fell tumbling down from one of the branches. Kage picked him up, and discovered that he was very sick because he was too lazy to notice. He went and got medical help from a nearby village. Shika was forever grateful to Kage, but still very lazy. When threatened, the black cat could become incredibly strong, but for the most part he just liked to sloth around. Kage joined Mythmaster after having nowhere else to go for adventure.
"Excuse me, but umm... we should get moving otherwise we'll miss lunch all together..." It was the voice of Naomi. Her dark green hair set her apart from the rest of them. She was about five feet and six inches tall. she had hazel brown eyes and spoke very politely and timidly. Someone on the outside of the group would never suspect that she would be the fourth strongest there.
For as long as she could remember she was a slave at the Tower of Heavens with Narakuryu. After Narakuryu and Erza got everyone out of the tower and onto the ships, she escaped. When she got to shore she went in a random direction and bumped into Kageryu and Narakuryu in a hotel, in a nearby town. She joined their possy and Kageryu trained Narakuryu in the control of his myth magic, while training Naomi in the art of Myth Requip. After many years of harsh training, she and Narakuryu finally finished their training and left their master at his retirement home in the middle of nowhere. They traveled around together, taking jobs and what not, before Narakuryu decided to form a guild. She became the second member of MythMasters.
"Come in guys! Let's go already! We're wasting time here!" exclaimed Jean Grey, Samantha, and Kaori impatiently.
Jean Grey is a proud woman at the age of twenty with vibrant red hair and a perfect figure. She was orphaned at a young age and was adopted by a kind old mage named Charles Xavier. He trained Jean in the art of Mind Magic before passing away in his sleep. Jean went off in search of her purpose in life after he died. On one job that she took, she got ambushed by bandits after finishing a job that drained her magical power. She was easily taken down and chained with another girl by the name of Samantha.
Samantha is a warrior at heart and doesn't take shit from anyone. She has deep blue hair and is the same age as Jean Grey. She uses an ancient form of magic called Bender Magic. At a young age, she was orphaned when bandits raided her hometown. She was soon found by the Order of the White Lotus and was brought to the house of wise, old Avatar Aang, a master of Bender Magic. She trained under him for many years before fully mastering the art of bending. After she mastered Bender Magic, she left Air Temple Island and went off to search for adventure. On one job she got captured by some bandits and was chained into a wooden prison. She met Jean Grey after a few days in captivity.
After a few days, a new girl was thrown into their little wooden prison. The girl's name was Kaori. Kaori is a very calm, collected woman of the age of 20. She has pink hair and is a master of Nature Magic. At a young age, she traveled to the Forest of Truth where she met Master Kionsu, a master of Nature Magic. She studied under Kionsu for many years before finally mastering Nature Magic and the ability to commune with nature. After mastering her Nature Magic, she went of in search of the mysterious guild MythMaster. After going on one job she was ambushed by bandits and was chained and thrown into a prison with two other girls.
All three girls were S-class mages, but the bandits were smart enough to use magical power sealing cuffs, preventing them for freeing themselves. Then one night they heard a lot of commotion coming from the bandit camp and heard what seemed to be a lot of screams. In the shadows of the trees, a man appeared. He had pink hair and was in what looked to be traditional Avatar robes. When he stepped into the moonlight and his face became visible, Kaori gasped in surprise.
"OH MY GOD! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! It's Narakuryu, the master of MythMaster, one the strongest guilds in Fiore!" Kaori exclaimed with hearts in her eyes.
"What! OH MY GOD! He's such a looker!" Jean and Samantha raved with hearts in their eyes.
Narakuryu bent the wood and created an opening before he went in and removed their cuffs.
"Are you guys okay?" Narakuryu asked with concern.
"Yeah, yeah we're fine. Thanks to you!" they replied dreamily.
After getting rescued by Narakuryu, all three of them decided to join MythMaster.
Two of the three of them have gotten over their crush, but one remains love-struck by her master.
"Alright, which restaurant?" Narakuryu inquired as the sound of growling stomachs began to increase in volume.
"I passed one on the way here, I think they specialize in seafood..." Simon replied.
"No really? I never would have guessed! Could it be because we're Right Next To The Friggin Ocean?" Samantha snapped.
"Okay okay, calm down. Every one follow Simon" The orders were headed well, and they walked quickly to the restaurant.
"Irashiaimase," the doorman greeted them with a large smile as they walked into the eatery, "How many people?"
"13"
"Thirteen?" The smile on his face grew ever wider as he called for the waitresses to rearrange the tables in the north eastern corner of the restaurant. They ordered their food, and waited for the chef to finish cooking.
"Well this place seems dece-" Narakuryu was cut off by a piece of squid that had hit him square in the back of his head.
"Hey buddy! What's the big ide-" He turned around in his seat to face the direction where the food had come from. Over the years, Narakuryu regained his sight by using a small amount of MythMagic to replace his eyeballs, but the sockets were still empty to everyone else. He saw something that made his heart race. The other twelve wizards turned to see what took their master's tongue. They were all at a loss for words.
The man stopped stuffing his face only for a second. Even then it was only to say "What's with them?" to Lucy, sitting across from him.
"Eh?" She turned to see who he was talking about, Lucy came face to face with Narakuryu. She was the one to point out what everyone had on their minds. "Eh? You both look exactly the same! look! Pink hair, same facial structure, same build! Even the ears! and the ey- KYAAAA! What happened to your eyes?"
Everyone just sat there, motionless as The other man, Natsu, got up and left the building.
"Well, bye now I have to go to a party!" Lucy said as she got up and walked out.
A few minutes later the crew was back to normal, chatty, hungry, and destructive. They paid their bill and left the store in ruins. As they went back to their hotel, Narakuryu was confronted by a man who was crying out for help.
"Please! someone! Someone's got my daughter on that boat! They're going to make her a sex slave! please help me! Help my daughter please!" the man pleaded.
"Kage, Hikari, come with me. The rest of you go packst of you go and pack up. We handle this." Narakuryu commanded. Fully confident in the Master's abilities, the others went to pack up.
"Which boat was it?" Narakuryu asked.
"That one! the one with a flag!" the old man said desperately.
"Alright, I can beach the boat, and then you two take your ca-" Narakuryu was cut off.
"Happy! Lets go save Lucy!" Natsu's voice had interrupted him,
"Aye Sir!" his cat replied.
"Hey! Wait there! You're name is Natsu correct?"
"Eh? Err yeah... You're that guy from the restaurant" he replied.
"What are you doing?" Narakuryu asked
"I'm going to save Lucy!" Natsu exclaimed
"How?" was the question from Kage
"I'm the great salamander! The greatest Fire wizard in Fairy Tail!" He stated with fire in his eyes.
"I know that, smart one, I mean how are you going to get on the boat?" The shadow Dragon Slayer's eyes met his
"Happy will fly me." He said, annoyed.
"You mean that thing is transportation?" Narakuryu said pointing at the blue cat with stubby wings.
"Don't call Happy transportation! He's my partner!" Natsu snapped back, he looked a little heartbroken.
"Well fancy that, me and those two Dragon Slayers were on our way ourselves, do you mind if we tag along?" The older brother inquired
"Wait wait wait, Dragon Slayers! Really? After this is over I have to ask you about your dragons." Natsu yelled excitedly.
"Okay okay, later. But we need to get to that boat. Can we come, or not?"
"Don't see why not, I really want to screw these guys over, geheheheh" The younger sibling replied.
"Alright, you three get over head, Kage take point. Hikari on left, Natsu on right. Keep formation until I beached the boat, got it?" Narakuryu ordered
"Yes sir!" Frizzi wrapped his tail around Hikari, and Shikamaru's tail was around Kage with equal haste. Natsu and Happy were the last ones out.
"So what am I going to do?" Narakuryu asked himself. A zoo caravan was making its way across a nearby bridge when one of the cages broke. A five meter long wyvern escaped and headed towards Narakuryu. He grabbed its neck, slapped it across the face, looked deeply into its eyes and ignored the snapping jaws.
"Myth Magic, Creature Submission!" His eye sockets glew purple, and white writing sped into the wyvern's eyes.
"You're mine now," He said calmly, "now I'm going to get on your back, and we're going to fly." the wyvern nodded. He mounted the creature and caught up to the Dragon Slayers with ease. He used hand signals to convey a message,
"I'll push the ship back to shore, and you guys distract them while I charge the push. Go."
Hikari and Kage dove. Natsu looked very confused, but Happy followed the other cats. All three dismounted, and started using their Dragon's Breath to demolish the bow of the ship. Meanwhile, Narakuryu's new pet hovered just off the stern of the ship, facing toward the mainland.
"MythMagic, Take over! Dragon God soul!" Streaks of pure white light shot out from his body. Every inch of his skin was illuminated with light from the heavens. He began to grow, and wings sprouted from his shoulders. His legs and arms grew scaly and thick. Horns of ivory shot out from his temples, and claws sprouted from his finger nails. His neck grew, and nose stretched out. His scream turned into a mighty roar, and the transformation was complete. He leveled his head just in time to see Natsu double over and let his enormous lunch loose. Narakuryu fell from his hovering position, and the wyvern barely made it out alive. He flapped his enormous wings a single time and the boat was blasted to shore. With the boat stopped, Natsu arose with the other three Dragon Slayers unscathed.
"Breath of the..." Natsu began. Kage and Shikamaru sat down to watch the show, as Hikari went to fetch Lucy down below the decks.
"Fire Dragon!" Natsu put his fists in front of his mouth, aligning the gaps in his hands with his mouth and blowing fire through them. The blast extended way past the boat and into the town, demolishing more than ten buildings and fruit stands.
"You got spunk kid," Kage said after Natsu had taken a deep breath or two, "I like it." Hikari arrived with Lucy. She had minor scratches, but was okay. Narakuryu returned in human form on his wyvern.
"Now that that's done," He said, dismounting his wyvern, "I believe we've got some talking to do. Seeing as we no longer have a guild, would you mind showing us to your guild? I would be very grateful"
