Hello world! So this is chapter 12, and OMG! We hit over 200 follows! The Pairings are now finalized! Naruto and Wendy, Natsu and Erza are the main pairings of the story. I am also very excited to say that now I a officially going to bring put out a chapter a week. So look forward to that, and if I feel like it maybe two a week. Now then... On to the chapter!
P.S. Wendy may seem bipolar but she's not. She is just not expecting what happens.
Walking... So much walking. Naruto and Jiraiya had been walking for 4 hours non stop. No breaks, no food, no fun. Naruto was beginning to wonder why he was even here with the older man. Then they reached there destination. A building with tents around it. The building itself looked pretty nice, a white base color with bands of other colors seemingly wrapped around it. The building also had cat ears on it. The tents were orange and had patterns of shapes on the tops. Then Naruto noticed a person, a girl to be precise. She was adorable, in every way. Long straight dark blue hair, an angelic face, with a blue and yellow dress. Of course one would think he would see how cute she is but Naruto being oblivious to such things thought this.
"This must be my training partner! She looks my age so she should be about as strong as me... Or even stronger!" Then he proceeded to run up to her and hopefully get to know her, become friends and train together. This was going to be great! Jiraiya on the other hand was more focused on Roubal. He needed to ask a question.
"Hey! FIGHT ME!" Naruto shouted as he ran at Wendy who in response, ran away from him as fast as possible.
"HELP ME!" Wendy pleaded, but Naruto not realizing that she didn't want to fight kept chasing her, until she tripped and fell on... Air? He finally stopped and stood next to the girl that had just face planted, still frozen in shock. He requiped a stick and started poking her with it.
*poke*
"Hello?"
*poke poke*
"You okay?"
*poke poke poke*
"Come on get up!" This time it wasn't such a pleasant tone of voice. Wendy jumped up and started apologizing.
"I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY! I WON FALL OVER AGAIN! I PROMISE!" Rapidly bowing at him repeatedly as she said this. Naruto was taken a back.
"You're weird." She felt as though she had turned to stone, then she thought.
"Hold up! He just assaulted me and he calls me weird!" She then uncharacteristically looked him in the eye and spoke up against him. She never does that.
"Why am I weird? You just ran around chasing me! So what if I tripped and fell! You literally attacked me!" Wendy then after her outburst, she stared at him for a little bit, then went back to a timid personality. He was kinda lost for a bit.
"Is she bipolar or something? I hope not! Mama is and she's scary!" Naruto started wondering if he should do something to make her happy. So he decided he should introduce himself.
"Hey my name is Naruto Scarlet. What's your name?" He smiled and also under the smile was hoping she would cheer up. She looked at him and after a couple of seconds she raised her head slightly and answered.
"My name is Wendy Marvell. Umm, are you Mr. Jiraiya's apprentice?" She asked, curiously.
"Mr. Jiraiya? I call him pervy sage! But yeah I'm his apprentice! I'm going to be training here for quite a while."
"Oh. Well welcome to Cait Shelter! Its the guild I belong to! Its a nice place and I don't doubt that you won't like it." That's when she noticed his guild mark. "Your from Fairy tail!?" She got very excited.
"Yeah what's the big deal?"
"I look up to multiple wizards from there! Erza, Mira, Levy from team Shadow Gear, Cana, and Evergreen! There so amazing! And pretty too. I hope I grow up to be like them." She apparently was also a fan girl.
"Well Erza, is my mama, Mira is a surrogate Aunt, Levy and Cana are like big sisters, but I rarely talk to them. Evergreen is really mean though."
"Wait so Erza is you mom!?" Perverted thoughts went flying through Wendy's innocent mind. She looked as though she would faint from the thoughts.
"Oh no. She found and raised me. She didn't give birth to me." He clarified.
"Oh ok. Soo... do you want to see the rest of the village? Its very beautiful." Wendy invited him.
"Sure. I would love to learn more about this place!"

"HHHRRRRAAGGGG!" Natsu roared as he began pounding away at a large bolder that Makorov had set for him to break... With his bare hands. After pounding at it for about 3 hours, bloody hands and a pile of pebbles in front of him. Natsu finally sat down and took a break. "Damn, this training is tough. I feel a lot stronger in terms strength. My magic on the other hand is feeling... Like it normally does."
"That's because you haven't taken off those limiters!" Natsu turned his head to see Makorov standing over him. "Now my boy. Fire off a breathe attack in under 5 seconds." Natsu's eyes widened. This was his chance to advance to the next level of training. He stood up and then gathered his energy.

Natsu converted it into fire.

Then he fired it off. A normal sized and powered breathe attack. Then he looked at Makorov, seeking approval. Makorov only smiled. Then spoke.
"Natsu... From here on out your training will be very brutal, if you want you can quit now. I won't allow you to quit once we get started." Natsu looked him in the eye.
"HIT ME WITH YOU'RE BEST GRAMPS!" After hearing his battle cry. Makorov began gathering his magic.
"Then... LET'S BEGIN!" He then enlarged his hand to being as big as Natsu's house, rocketing at Natsu. Natsu coated his hands in fire and rushed forward as well. Clashing for not even a second, Makorov's power overwhelmed Natsu and sent him flying. He simply shrugged off the fact he can't compete and got back up and rushed his Master again.
"That's right Natsu. If there's one thing I know about you, is that you get stronger by fighting! I will teach you a new magic soon enough. But first we need to build upon you." The Master thought to himself.

Erza was currently standing on top of a mountain of knocked out bandits. They were in the middle of a camp in the forest. She was scratch less. Literally not a single hit had been landed on her. Why had she beat the crap out of these guys well... They stole some of her cake.
Flash back
"Hey lady, your pretty cute, but that cake might make you pack the pounds. Why don't you hand it over?" A man stood over her in the local bakery. She looked up at him, and asked.
"Is that a challenge?"
"Huh?"
"Is that a challenge? I won't repeat myself." A tick mark appeared on the mans head.
"Yeah I guess it is!"
"Then let us meet in the East Forest and duel for it!" Stars in her eyes, she could finally check off 'having a duel for a slice of cake off her bucket list.
Flash back ends
When she arrived there had been the man and his cronies, so she beat the crap out of them all. In her mind she found this ambush rather smart on the enemy's behalf. He must have realized that she was superior to him so he got his friends involved. Harmless.
"Well I guess I win. Although it was smart of you to bring your friends, especially since we were fighting for something so important!" Stars in her eyes, she sat down on a random guy and requiped her cake and started eating it. She was halfway through with it, when someone got up and tried to sneak up on her. However he fell over and instead of hitting her, he nailed the cake. It was all in slow motion for her. The plate tipping. The beautiful strawberry falling off the frosting. The cake falling off the plate. The disheartening sight of it splattering into ground, and the sickening shattering sound of the plate.
Time stopped and an aura of death set in. These men were never heard from ever again.

"So this is my home. I hope you like the village. Its a really nice place." Wendy had shown Naruto around and to say that this place is nice would be an understatement. It was great. The people were very kind and apparently the forest had plenty of animals to fight. Also the guild is really nice.
"Hey Wendy, are you good at magic control?" He hoped she was, because he still couldn't use Energy Make properly.
"Oh, well... Yes I am. Why?" She meekly responded. Naruto honestly hated her personality. She was too shy.
"Well you can help me perfect a spell! Also I can help you be more confident!" He beamed with confidence, as if assuring her that they could do it.
"Ok." Again she replied shyly. Not happy with her response, he would have to encourage her.
"What? I didn't catch that?"
"Ok." This time a little louder.
"Sorry! My ears must be pretty dirty, I can't hear you. You have to speak up!" He said while picking at his ear with his pinky. This time Wendy made sure she was heard.
"OK! LETS DO IT!" She shouted at the top of her lungs. Naruto smiled.
"ALRIGHT! LETS GO, WENDY!" He then grabbed her hand and tugged her along after him to a place where they could train in peace.

"So that's my idea. What do yo say Roubal?" Jiraiya was speaking with the Master of Cait Shelter about using something for training. Roubal looked at him with an uncertain look.
"I don't know Jiraiya, that's a tough job. Even for you." Jiraiya looked at him with a reassuring smirk.
"Trust me, I won't be alone. After all I will have Wendy, Naruto, and Carla helping me!" Jiraiya stated. As Roubal was about to answer, Carla came into the room to ask a question of her own.
"Master, I need to know if there's any way, you know of to boost Wendy's confidence." Then she saw Jiraiya. "Why is the pervert here?" She asked blandly. Looking hurt Jiraiya was about to respond when Roubal answered for him.
"This 'pervert' and his student will do just that. Now run along, go to Wendy and make sure she isn't playing with the fish again. We don't want to have to pry the piranhas off her again." Carla would have protested to this stupidity she just heard but if the master said it... Then there must be some sort of merit to it. She then left to find Wendy without a word. Leaving the older men to themselves and a comfortable silence.
"Very well Jiraiya." Jiraiya had a look of surprise on his face.
"You may use Nirvana."
BOOM! CLIFFHANGER! So what did you think? Review!
