A/N: Wow guys! It's been less than 24 hours and there are already so many OC submissions. Many thanks for the support. As a form of gratitude, here is the next chapter. For those that haven't sent any OCs in, don't worry. Submissions aren't closed yet. I wish I could have a few more lively characters though. Most of them are all too serious so far and way too cold. Some more males would be preferred as well XD

For those that have reviewed, many thanks as well. I will be counting on you guys to help improve my writing and noticing all the little mistakes that I have missed.

Doom Marine 54: Well I am as excited as you are XD

Martyn: I guess I will make an exception this time. Keep reviewing and supporting

Grace of Flames: Hope you have enjoyed the chapter. Do send in your OC, slots are still open

IdentityCrisis.03: Don't sweat it; if it helps the story I'm all go for it.

Sakura-Fiction: Yea, I have noticed the paragraphing error as well. Thanks for pointing it out. Don't worry about the OC selection though. Although it's first come first serve, I still review them to make sure all's good before accepting them XD

On a side note, please do not use any of my or others OCs without permission. Nobody wants to see any of their characters getting stolen. I have seen it happen once and trust me; it did not end pretty well for either side.

For now all magics are still welcomed. All S-class spots have been currently filled so sorry guys. They'll just have to wait till the S-class exams to earn their title. Don't worry if your OC does not show up in this chapter or so. They will be evenly distributed over the few introduction chapters and I'll make sure they all get ample screen time.

With this, let's get this chapter rolling as well.

Chapter 1

Glaive Heathcliff walked down the stairs leading from the third floor of the guild house. The sun had just risen but he was already awake. It was a habit that he had developed from young and continued to maintain it till now. Sleep early and rise early as they always say. Through the glass ceiling, pale streaks of the early sun's rays shone through the guild hall, bathing it in a warm soothing light. The guild hall which was once bustling with activities was now an eerie quiet. The members of the guild were either out or were still asleep. It was during this time that Glaive have some peace and quiet to reflect upon the past, present and future.

"Morning Father," a familiar voice brought Glaive out of his musings and he turned to smile at the direction of the voice. "Morning, Seras. I believe you slept well,"

"Yep!" Seras replied with a smile of her own. Seras had changed much over the past 10 years. Gone was the small and adorable girl who could barely speak. She was now an attractive young woman. She grew out her originally short brown hair and had cut it into a flare cut. Gone were her brown eyes that were filled with just innocence, now replaced with vigor and experience. She had a fairly broad shouldered torso, yet maintained a very voluptuous and buxom figure. Her cream colored skin was covered with a white blouse and blue skin tight jeans that went well with her black boots. Her electric blue guild mark, which was in the shape of a wing with four feathers extending from an orb, was clearly visible on her collarbone, something that she sported with pride.

Like Glaive, Seras was also an early riser. She preferred the mornings compared to any other time of the day. After all, it was the only time that she could practice her magic without any distractions or hindrances. During the day, she served as the attendant at the bar as well as the person in charge of handling requests. By the time night fell, she was already too exhausted to try and practice her spells.

"Anything new?" Glaive asked as he walked towards his daughter who was currently holding up a sensory lacrima.

"Nope, nothing is showing up on the scanner." Seras replied as she gazed into the lacrima. The guild had recently received reports of bandit activities in the woods behind them. As the only mages guild present in town, Glaive took it upon himself to line the city gates with sensory lacrima. Just in case they got way too close for comfort. "They probably left already. That report was over a week old Father."

"That may be true but let's just keep it up for a bit longer. I don't want to threaten the lives of anyone in this town." Glaive had a hardened expression on his face. Ex-wizard saint or not, it was still a Guild Master's job to keep the guild, its members and the city safe.

"Morning Father! Morning Sis!" a cheery voice echoed over the stairwell, causing the tense atmosphere to break. Footsteps could be heard coming down the stairs and both Seras and Glaive turned their heads. The owner of the voice was a short boy with spiky blond hair that was currently messy as a result of him waking up. He rubbed his sleepy eyes, revealing one to be bright red while the other to be green. He had pale skin and was quite thin, such that his ribcage was starting to show slightly. He was in a worse shape when Glaive found him on the streets but was now on the way to a speedy recovery. He was currently dressed in a plain white shirt and beige colored Arabian shorts. He didn't wear any shoes, preferring to go about barefooted.

"Morning Vento!" Seras replied with a smile while Glaive went up to rub the younger boy's head, something which brought a smile to Vento's face. The boy had only joined a year ago but Glaive had taken a liking to him already. As Vento was an orphan, Glaive decided to take him under his wing and treat him like his own family, something that the boy agreed with joy. He was currently staying in the same quarters as Glaive and Seras.

"Are you hungry?" Seras asked as Vento climber onto one of the stools located at the bar table. There was no need to answer as Vento's stomach spoke for itself, causing the boy to let out a sheepish smile, rubbing the back of his head.

"What would you like to eat?" Seras was already sorting through the pantry for ingredients when Vento's answer came in. "Anything's fine. Sis' cooking all tastes so good!" Seras chuckled slightly under her breath, deciding to fry Vento some scrambled eggs and French toast. She made an extra reminder to herself to make it in larger portions. While it may not seem like it, boy can Vento eat.

"By the way Seras, are there any teams scheduled to return today?" Glaive looked at his daughter who was busy cracking eggs to make the batter.

"If I remember correctly, Ryuga's team should be en route already. Their mission was completed as of yesterday according to the report they sent in via lacrima transmission." Seras had a finger against her cheek as she tried to recall the details.

Glaive paled slightly at the mention of the team. They were the perfect embodiment of Natsu's team in Scarlet Nova. While the S-class mage amongst them was to keep them in line, time and again has he proven to be ineffective in keeping his team mates in check but joining them in their bouts of destruction as well. He really hoped that everything went off without a hitch this time. At this rate, he was going to be in debt with the amount of property damage they were causing.

Still, it took less than a day to travel back to Valgore from Hargeon since there was the train and all. "I wonder what's keeping them?"

Hargeon Port

"Err what was I doing again? Said female was currently standing in the middle of Hargeon port with her hands on her hips. She was pretty sure she came here for a reason but she just couldn't remember why. She had short purple hair that reached down to about her neck and was of average height standing at 5"6. She had slightly pale skin and a rather voluptuous figure. Her bright red eyes were currently furrowed as she tried to recall why she was there. She was currently wearing a grey short-sleeve blouse, a red medium-length simple skirt over a pair of shorts, and a pair of short lace-up embroidered shoes with heels that flashed red and black. A wolf collar necklace and a bowler hat acted as the finishing touches to her get up, the whole ensemble being coordinated in pale gray and dark red.

While her face and expression did not show it, she was racking her brains out internally. "Calm down Liliana. You've got this. Just try and recall what Ryuga said."

Slowly she began to piece together the details of what happened since yesterday. Her team completed the mission yesterday. The client was happy. The council was not. Someone was arrested. And then. And then…

"What are you doing, Lil?" a voice broke her out of her chain of thoughts, just as she started to recall something important. Usually she would have given that person a glare but she recognized the voice so she settled with her usual poker face.

"Hey Vali, what's up." She replied in a monotone voice as she turned to face him. Compared to her, Vali dwarfed her in height, standing at 6'3. Vali had midnight black hair that was short and spikey, complemented by an overall angular face with a slightly tanned skin tone with onyx colored eyes. For clothing, he wore a skin tight black body armor that covered his chest and has silver runes inscribed on it. He also wore metal plated shoes and a pair of black trousers with three belt straps located near the knee region. On top of that, there was a red overcoat that covers his arms and upper torso, fashioned and tied with an agemaki knot. The coat is also attached to his hips, designed like a skirt to cover his waist and legs. On his back, he carried a staff like weapon that sprouted six black blades with red orbs embedded in each of them from either end of the staff.

"What are you talking about?" Vali gave her a puzzled look before coming to his own conclusion. He had almost forgotten. Liliana had the memory of a gold fish. Do not bother even asking her anything at all as she probably wouldn't recall anything. If you got an answer out of her, be sure to check twice with others, or else you may be thrown into a loop for all you know. As in this scenario, she had completely forgotten what she was doing here which was a good thing he went after her anyway.

"Don't you remember Lil? We're here to find Ryuga remember? We have to tell him that Zephyr has been arrested by the magic council!" Vali exasperated at her while all the time, Liliana just stood there with an emotionless expression as she let Vali's words sink in.

"Oh!" Liliana's expression brightened slightly, her fist smacking into her other open palm as she finally managed to connect all the dots together. Vali just sighed inwardly as he face palmed. Sure, trust the birdbrain to complete a simple job that she VOLUNTEERED to do. Then again, having worked with her for almost 3 years, he should have known better than to let her do it alone.

"So do you know where he is?"

"Nope."

That almost caused Vali to face palm yet again. Great, she even forgot where Ryuga was.

The day before when the team completed the mission, Ryuga mentioned about taking a stroll around the city and told Vali to watch over the other two mages Things went well for the first half an hour or so with Vali making sure neither of them was causing trouble. That was until the army came right straight up and surrounded them. Zephyr was arrested and taken away while Liliana instantly volunteered to go and find Ryuga, claiming that she knew where he was. Before he could clarify anything, both of them were gone in a flash and he stood there dazed.

"This time, we're gonna find Ryuga together. You stay within my sights ok?" Vali sighed as he stared at Liliana who nodded fervently. Hargeon was by no means a small town. That meant that this was going to take some time. It also meant that he had better start coming up with a reason to avoid getting screwed over by Ryuga.

Random Alley

"What the hell was that punk!" the gangster glared at the figure before him, the rest of his group laughing menacingly. The kid who was currently being held hostage by them had red swollen eyes from crying and was whimpering silently. He did not dare to make a noise since there was a knife to his neck and was currently dangling in midair, held up by one of the goons.

"I said let the kid go." The figure reiterated, his voice calm and composed despite being faced with several armed men. They were all currently in one of the back alleys of the Hargeon port. Said figure was just travelling around aimlessly when he found the group of them threatening the kid. "You guys don't own this street and the kid just got lost. So drop it and let the kid go."

"Maybe you should shut the hell up and mind your own business!" The lead thug rushed towards said figure as he threw a punch. The figure just simply dodged with ease, instead using the man's weight against him. He grabbed the outstretched arm with one hand and swung the man through the concrete building on the left, causing the wall to collapse. The other thugs stared gob-smacked with jaws agape at the strength the man displayed and the one holding the kid instantly loosened his grip. The kid immediately ran for cover behind said figure much to the dismay of his captors.

"Go on kid. You're only in the way." The figure scowled as he prepared for the impending fight. The kid instantly took it as his cue to leave, muttering a word of thanks before running off. As the concrete wall crumbled further, the rays of light from the sky shone onto the figure, giving his opponents a better look at him.

The figure had an angular face as well as a tall and athletic build, standing at 6'7 tall. His crimson colored eyes went well with the silver spiky hair he sported but the pink scar that ran down his left eye stood out like a sore thumb. His beige colored skin was covered by a black shirt with a skull imprinted on it and dark brown slacks that were tucked into black combat boots. A chain extended from one of the pockets to his belt region and an ember crystal necklace hung from his neck. A grey twin tailed coat with a hood was worn over the set and his hands donned black fingerless gloves. For those that knew him, he was one to be respected. For those that didn't, his name and reputation spoke for themselves.

"It…it…it's…its Sparda! Sparda Ryuga!" one of the thugs stammered out upon recognizing the S-class mage causing the rest of them to begin to cower in fear.

Ryuga just cracked his knuckles and neck as he stared down the thugs. "Told you to let the boy go when you had the chance."

"W...W…What's there to be afraid off..., he's only one man and there are 8 of us. We can take him." Another thug stuttered out as he tried to steel himself and his comrades. Although it obviously wasn't working given how his knees were knocking and wobbling. Ryuga just sighed at the futile attempt. Once you gave into fear, the fight's all over.

"G…GE…GET HIM!" all at once the thugs all rushed at Ryuga, brandishing swords and one a magic gun. All the while, Ryuga just stood still, waiting for his opponents to come to him. The first and second thugs slashed vertically downwards with their swords at Ryuga who grabbed their wrist instantly and snapped them. As they howled in pain, Ryuga grabbed their heads and slammed them each into an opposite wall. The third thug that came slashing tried to aim for Ryuga's neck, only for him to get back flipped by the arm into the waters of the port. Picking up the sword dropped, Ryuga used its handle to bash into the skulls of the next two thugs before they even had a chance to move. The one armed with the magic gun chose at this moment to fire, thinking that he could hit Ryuga at close range.

"Naïve," though Ryuga as he used the edge of the sword to curve the trajectory of the bullet before flinging it back into the muzzle of the gun. The magic gun instantly exploded and knocked the thug out cold. The last thug stood alone, surrounded by the battered bodies of his friends. Realizing that he simply did not stand a chance, he turned tail and ran in the opposite direction of the alley.

Only to hit a steel pole at the end of it.

"So here you are Ryuga," came a voice behind the pole. From either end of the alley emerged Vali and Liliana, with Vali quickly sheathing his weapon.

"Oh, it's you guys. How did you find me?" Ryuga asked as he walked over to greet his two teammates.

"Well, we were in the vicinity when we heard sounds of a fight going on we decided to investigate. We were planning to help but guess you didn't need it." Juliana replied in a monotonous voice as she surveyed the scene.

Ryuga just shrugged. He was fine on his own at times, but when it came down to it he always preferred having his three teammates backing him up. Wait, three teammates?

"Where's Zephyr?"

"About that," Vali begin to smile sheepishly and even Liliana's eyes turned to dots. Both of them began to sweat profusely, knowing what was coming next. "he was arrested by the council."

"WHAT THE HELL!?"

Council Courtroom In Hargeon

"Will the accused please step forward?" came the voice of the council member as he addressed the man before him.

"Tch," the man had an annoyed look on his face as he stood up from his chair and walked to the platform in front of him. He fiddled with the magic restraining cuffs that were bound to fists and legs, annoyed by the fact that they were too tight and that he couldn't move much. He was of average height with a rather slim build, standing at an even 5'7. He had golden spiky hairy that was being held by a black headband with the word speed in kanji along with two strands of hair that extended out from his forehead. His eyes were blue like the sky and a pair of blue googles with silver trimmings hung from his neck. He wore an electric blue sweat shirt that had yellow streaks of lightning across the sleeves and pair of identical running pants, coupled by the storm blue sneakers on his feet. The blue guild mark on his cheek was also a match to his outfit; giving people the feeling he was a racer which was an indicative of his magic.

"Zephyr Damon, I believe?"

"Yessir," Zephyr zipped back a reply before the council member could finish his sentence.

"You are hereby on trial for the crimes that you have committed when you abused your identity as a mage of Scarlet Nova," Zephyr just yawned in disinterest, looking around the room for something to do. A tick mark grew on the council member's head as he glared at the mage but continued nonetheless. "Your crimes are as follows."

"The ignition of the streets..."

"The aftereffect of my magic."

"The outrage of modesty of two girls…"

"Not my fault, their skirts were in the way. Too bad they weren't all that hot."

"The damage of property…"

"The idiot jumped into the building and wouldn't come out, so I had to bring the building down."

"ENOUGH!" the council member finally snapped, causing Zephyr to just grin with a shrug of his shoulders. "I hereby sentence you to…"

Once again the council member was interrupted. Not by Zephyr this time but by the shattering of the glass roof with someone yelling "GETOUTOFTHEWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY!"

There was a small explosion of dust as something hit the floor of the court room, obscuring everyone's vison temporarily. When the dust settled, it revealed a barely conscious Vali at the bottom of the pile, Ryuga in the middle and Liliana sitting right on top both of them, still holding a poker face with her hand raised up. "We have arrived."

That got Zephyr into a laughing fit. "Now that's what I call an entrance."

It also got the councilmember into a fit. "Who the hell are you guys!" he demanded as the rune knights already began to flood the room.

"Remind me to kill you later Lil," Ryuga growled under his breath. "We are members of Scarlet Nova and we are here to prove our teammate's innocence."

"Wha…?" The council member was cut off, again, as Ryuga shoved the request sheet into his face. "In accordance to magic law, article 12, line 5, any mage carrying out a request cannot be held liable for trial in the event of any form of crime committed except the involvement and murder of innocents."

"Bu..Bu..Bu.." the council member stuttered out. "If that's all, we'll be taking our teammate and leaving, sir" Ryuga emphasized the last part through gritted teeth, indicating he was at the end of his patience already. There was way too much bullshit today and he was not going take this any further. The council member, as though understanding his intentions, gave a weak nod.

"Yeah yeah hurry up," Zephyr demanded as the rune knights reluctantly released the cuffs on his arms and legs.

'WOOOHOOO! FREEDOM!" Zephyr hollered as he immediately began running loops and loops around the room. He was in such a blur that almost no one dared to move in fear of colliding into him. Once he got over his enthusiasm, he returned to his teammates, attempting to thank them.

"Let's get out of here! I'll bring us to the train station in a jiffy!" he declared with zeal, his hands already grabbing Liliana and Ryuga who had slung an unconscious Vali over his shoulder.

"NO…!" Oh well, their voices came too late.

"Speed magic: Line Drive" In an instant, all four mages were gone, leaving an astounded council member and team of rune knights.

Seconds later, all four members arrived at the station. Apart from Zephyr, the other three were green with nausea. Liliana and Ryuga were already bending over, ready to hurl any second.

"Cheh, its your faults for not having weak stomachs," Zephyr smirked as he held his hands behind his head.

Despite the nausea, Ryuga still found the strength to plummet Zephyr to the ground with a fist.

"You have a lot of nerve you runt!" Ryuga growled out with whatever strength he had left. "This. Is. All. Your. Fault."

"Erm, whoopsie," Zephyr chuckled as he bonked himself on the head, but that smile very soon turned into a frown as he saw Ryuga's fist descending again.

From all across Hargeon, the pitiful cries of a man in extreme pain echoed throughout the city.

May God have mercy on his soul.
