Hi, this is my first fanfic so sorry if it's badly written or has spelling mistakes. The first chapter was kind of like a 'Pilot' to see if anyone acctually read it, so here's chapter two :)
As Chrys was waking up, she saw flashes of daylight flicker through her blinking eyes. They eventually focused on what seemed like an argument between two conflicting guild members. It was thier shouting and cussing that had awoke her. Slightly irritated by this, the celestial mage yelled out rashly:
"Would you two shut your faces?"
The two boys turned round to see Chrys sitting furiously at her seat. They were shocked at what had just been said to them, but before they could reply, a beautiful, armoured mage arose aggressively, making her long scarlet hair ripple violently as she did.
"Natsu! Gray!" belowed the woman. Never before had Chrys seen such an intimidating glare. She was just glad it wasn't being aimed at her. The scarlet-haired mage's eyes narrowed menacingly, warning off all male 'spectators'. However the two boys' eyes widened considerably as sweat accumulated on thier foreheads.
"Sorry, Erza!" they chanted in unison and, as if by magic, they merrily sat down. Just how scary was this 'Erza'? The woman then turned to face Chrys, whos eyes were already as wide as Gray and Natsu's. She was shaking in her seat as if she expected the same treatment. Then, the menacing glare that posessed her facial feautures about two seconds ago had suddenly turned to sincerity.
"I apologize for thier behaviour earlier, it won't happen again." her calm voice spoke.
Struggling not to look at all scared, Chrys replied,
"It's o-okay."
The elegant woman tipped her head respectfully then joined her fellow guild members.
As soon as Erza turned round, Chrys felt herself relaxing. One thing was for certain, she didn't want to run into her again. She then looked down to realize that she was subconsiously clutching Andromeda's key. The pale-haired mage smiled to herself when she thought about how stupid she must've looked. Nevermind. Atleast it all kept her entertained for a while, besides, it's not like she was ever going to meet them again.
Blissfully, Chrys checked her surroundings. The train had just passed a thick, eerie forest that had stretched for approximately 3 miles. The sun was a fluorescent bead in the centre of a blue ring, shining down on the earth like a giant lightbulb. Each individual beam of light pierced thier seperate holes through the thick, white clouds, highlighting a tall, castle-like building that towered above any tree. The centre of it beared the symbol of the Blue Pegasus guild. Chrys gasped in delight.
"I'd better look presentable, so I'll change my clothes before the train stops in twenty minutes." She murmered happily under her breath.
"Wait... Twenty minutes?"
Chrys lept to her feet, and carrying her bag, sprinted to the bathroom, passing a confused Natsu, Erza, Gray and some blonde girl in the process. She ran along along the burgundy-carpeted isle and slammed the door at the back of the carriage shut. She searched through her denim bag hurreidly and pulled out a cropped, black, halter-neck top and a pair of brown, baggy, cloth traousers.
As her trousers were slipped on and her gate keys attached to her belt, the celestial mage heard a rattling at the door knob. Good job she locked it or the poor person would see her in her bra-hold on...
"Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" Chrys screamed in embarrassment as blood catapulted from the boy's nose. Before she had time to yell at him for being a pervert, he rammed the door shut.
"Who the hell did he think he was?" she questioned herself as she stroppily pulled on her belly-top.
"Walking in on me like that! What a perve! I'm going to get him!" She tied the strings of her top together at the back of her neck.
"It wasn't my fault I forgot to lock the door, I was in a rush! It's not as if he's joining the blue pegasus guild. I bet the boys there have way more class!"
Tears accumulated in her eyes as she bethought the fact that she just publicly hummiliated herself infront of the whole carriage, and that the train would be stopping any minute. She was going to have to leave the safety of the bathroom at some point soon or she'd be stuck for another five hours before she could even get a glimpse of intelligent civillisation.
"Clickity-clack, clickity-clack... clickity-clack... Hiss!" went the train as if it knew exactly what situation she was in. Chrys whimpered as her hand shakily turned the door knob. She decided to leave the bathroom, run across the isle, and leave the train in a one-er and as fast as possible. The embarassed mage hunched her shoulders up to her chin, looked down at the floor and flung the door open. The train was quite quiet for she was one of the very few people that were getting off. As the pale-haired mage speed-walked down the isle using her over-sized feet, the passengers either frowned upon her, laughed at her or gave her 'I feel sorry for you, better luck next time' gazes. She ignored all of them. She just wanted to get away.
