Chapter 2: The Newcomer
The Doctor found this town called Magnolia very peculiar, while some things seemed very primitive, others seemed quite advanced in comparison. While the markets, architecture, and style of clothing seemed centuries behind the Earth he had just visited (keeping in mind that this was an entirely different dimension.) There were vehicles such as cars, motor boats, and what sounded like trains. After witnessing these things The Doctor had retrieved clothing and valuable jewels that he hoped would allow him to blend into this world. However, there was one man The Doctor could never fool, a man that had a nose as keen as an animal; this man's name… was Natsu Dragneel.
"What do you mean I can't buy anything with these?" The Doctor inquired. "Do you have any idea how valuable these gems are? This one is worth more than your entire family!" "Well if that's the case, please take my entire family. Clearly you are a very wealthy old geezer whom we should be honored to serve." The shopkeeper mocked. "Wait, are you serious?" The shopkeeper slammed is fists on the counter and shouted, "OF COURSE NOT! HOW THICK ARE YOU! GET OUT OF MY SHOP!" The Doctor, not wanting to cause a scene turned around and walked out without a sound.
"Hey Happy, d'ya hear that racket over there?" Natsu asked curiously. "Sure did Natsu, sounds like someone got in trouble with Cranky Old Man Tank. Whoever did it is prolly new in town." Natsu's smile spread all across his face. "Well let's go say hi and show 'em around!" Natsu and Happy ran over to find this newcomer and greet him accordingly. "Do you see him Natsu?" "Naw, but I can smell him. This guy doesn't smell anything like magnolia; in fact, I've never smelt anything like this before! This guy must be from out of country, he must have a lot of cool stories to tell. I can't wait to meet him!"
Natsu honed in on the scent of this newcomer and found exactly who he was. Happy flew quickly and stopped him right in his tracks, "HI, I'M HAPPY!" The Doctor jumped back in shock and yelled, "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!" "I'm Happy, and this is my pal Natsu!" Natsu walked up and began to thoroughly sniff The Doctor, and then slowly backed up in silence. "OH MY GOSH, IT'S SO GREAT TO MEET YA! You're not from around here are you? You must have been to a lot of places. You have a lot of smells on you. What's your name?" The Doctor dusted off his jacket and said, "It would be nice to meet you if you had brushed your teeth before putting them in my face. No, I am not from around here, I am not so sure about the 'smells' on me, and my name is The Doctor. Now I have some questions for you, what country is this?" Happy flew up to face him eye to eye, "This land is named Fiore, and the ground you stand on belongs to our town of Magnolia." The Doctor put his hand to his chin as he looked down to ponder things, he then stated, "Yes, I noticed this town's name on the sign as I entered. That brings to mind another question, what is Fairy Tail?" Natsu's eyes widened and he grew a big smile upon his face, "Why, we're the perfect people for you to ask! Fairy Tail is our guild; we're one of the top guilds in the country!" The Doctor looked hopeful, "Well finally, something that makes sense! I could join a guild, wait could I? Yes, I could. Tell me, uh, what's your name?" Natsu kindly enlightened, 'I'm Natsu, one of Fairy Tail's top members!" "Ah, well then Natsu, what is your guild's trade?" Natsu's face began to flash a diabolical grin, "Our guild's a wizardin' guild!
