A/N: Hey guys! Sorry the chapters are short but I'll try to update often. I decided to make this chapter a little longer than the others. Also, hope you all like the new cover. I hope it'll help you get a better image of Dani and Cassia. If you have any suggestions for the story let me know!
"Wow! This place is amazing," I yelled so Gray could hear me over the wind. "Yeah! Told you it was cold," he replied. He was right. It was pretty cold but it didn't bother me since I'm an ice mage. Gray didn't look bothered either. "So, what now?" I asked. He shrugged. "You smell any Vulcans?"
I sniffed the air. "Three Vulcans. They're heading this way." I said cheerfully. Gray grinned. "Guess we get to train after all."
We spotted the Vulcans and took our Ice-Make stances. Gray's hands started glowing blue and mine were glowing red. "Ice-Make: Lance!" Gray exclaimed. "Ice-Make: Rosen Krone!"
The three Vulcans were soon defeated and I lay on the snow, tired. I felt something cold hit my face and turned around to see a laughing Gray. "If a snowball fight's what you want, a snowball fight you'll get," I mumbled. I extended my arm forward and summoned my magic seal. "White Out!"
"What the-" Gray couldn't finish his sentence. My attack blocked his vision and I summoned three snowballs before finishing him off. I laughed childishly. "You can use snow magic too?! How powerful are you?" he asked. I looked at him thoughtfully. "Well, I can requip and I'm also a Celestial mage. Oh, I can also use earth magic." "WHAT?!" I laughed. "I'm kidding, you idiot."
We sat in the snow and talked for a while. "So," Gray said. "Your Rosen Krone attack seemed familiar. Where did you learn it?" "Oh, I was practicing my Ice-Make Magic by Clover Town, where I used to live. A woman walked up to me and told me she was impressed with my magic and that she was separated from her partners so she could teach me a few moves. She used Ice-Make magic just like I did! Her name was Ultear. She was my teacher for about two weeks," I replied
Gray's eyes widened. "Ultear?!" he asked. "Yeah, you know her?"
He sighed. "Long, long story."
I nodded. "Seriously, what types of magic do you use. I'm tired of you surprising me," he said. "Well, I use Ice-Make and Dragon Slayer Magic. I use snow magic too although I'm not too good at it. I also know a Sleep Magic spell and can use Sword Magic like Erza does. You've seen my sword right? Ice Reaper. I can use a bunch of different spells while using it." I beamed.
"You're more powerful than I thought," Gray admitted. "Maybe if you're chosen for the S-Class Mage Promotion Trial you can become an elite mage." I nodded. Erza had told me about the promotional trial. "I've only been here for about three weeks, though," I said. "The time you've spent here doesn't really matter. The promotion trial is in about two months. If you work hard you just might get the chance," Gray said.
"Well, I do have an extremely large supply of magic power," I said immodestly. Gray laughed. "So you like fighting. Lucy, Levy and Wendy aren't really fans of it," he said. "Fighting is loads of fun. I honestly don't know how they don't enjoy it." Gray grinned. "You know, you remind me a lot of Natsu. You two would get along great." "Yeah, we get along just fine. I'm going to do a mission with him soon." I said. "After the mission with Saber?" he asked. "Yeah." I beamed. "Wait… weren't we going to go on that mission… today?"
"OH SHIT!" we yelled in unison and ran towards the guild.
"Oh, so you're finally here. You're late." Erza glared at us. "S-Sorry." Gray stammered but I just laughed. Erza's expression softened. "Alright. Lucy, Cana, Gajeel, Levy, Wendy, Natsu, Mira, Juvia, you ready?" she asked. They all nodded and we headed towards Sabertooth's base with Lily, Happy, Charle, Cassia and Dureau tagging along.
A man with black hair and red eyes greeted us with a warm smile. "Hello, members of Fairy Tail. I believe I've met you all before?" he asked. "Dani joined the guild about three weeks ago. She's a very skilled mage. Dani, this is Rogue Cheney, one of Saber's Twin Dragons. He's a Third Generation dragon slayer just like you are."
Rogue observed me carefully. "So you're a Third Generation. Sting and I never met one of our kind before. Come on in, I'll introduce you." He grabbed my hand and led me into the building. "Sting!" he called out. "Meet Dani, newest member of Fairy Tail. She's a Third Generation Dragon Slayer just like we are." "Oh?" Sting said. "So, what kind of magic do you use?" he asked. "Well," I started. "I use Ice Dragon Slayer Magic, Ice-Make Magic, Snow Magic, Sword Magic and I know a few water spells." I said. "I also have immense magic power." I added. "Oh, modest, are we?" Sting chuckled and I laughed. "Alright, alright, enough chit chat," Natsu said. "When do we get to beat people up?" he asked eagerly. "Soon enough, Natsu-san." Sting said. "First, we need to divide into groups." he said.
"Leave that to me," Cana grinned. She went up to a nearby map and slashed at it with her cards. "The cards determine the most compatible groups. I've tried this before and it failed, but I'm not possessed this time." she said with a wink. "Alright, here are the groups."
"Gajeel, Levy and Lily. Rogue, Frosch, Dani and Dureau. Natsu, Lucy, Lector and Wendy-" "What?" Lucy interrupted. My magic isn't really compatible with Natsu's…" "Oh, that won't be a problem," Cana said. "We all know Natsu will go berserk if anything happens to you, which will motivate him during battle. You know, being in love with you and all. And if Wendy tags along-" "Ehhhh?" Lucy exclaimed, her eye twitching slightly while Natsu laughed. He slung his arm over her shoulders. "It'll be alright, Lucy. Cana's right. I won't let anyone hurt you and if we have Wendy on our side, we'll be able to take out one of the bigger guilds." He said with a grin.
"Sting, Gray and Charle. I'd say you two could handle yourselves but you'll need an Exceed like Charle in case one of you is injured and needs to come back to the guild. Alright, next group. Erza, Happy and myself. Mira will be with Juvia, Cassia and… Yukino?" she examined the cards. A petite girl appeared. "Yes, I'll be tagging along," she said with a smile. "It's settled then!" Cana said with a grin. "Teams, move out!"
General POV:
Lucy, Natsu and Wendy were heading towards the base of the guild they were assigned to: Dark Unicorn
"So, is this their base?" Lucy asked, pointing at a dark building. "Yes, Lucy-san, I think so." said Lector. "What do we know about the guild?" Wendy asked. "Well, I know they wear school uniforms and have some weird unicorn hairdo. Erza told me that they use weapons more than magic." Natsu replied. "Don't worry, it'll be a piece of cake."
Gajeel, Levy and Lily had already found their destination. "Harpuia, eh?" Gajeel said. "I heard Salamander took them out with ease. I doubt we'll have any problem dealing with them." "Gajeel," Levy said. "That was seven years ago. We can't know how powerful they are now."
"She's right." Lily said. "We should be careful."
Rogue, Frosch, Dani and Dureau hadn't made it to Death's Head Caucus's base yet. "We should be careful." Rogue said. "The guild has some powerful members." He soon realized that Dani wasn't listening to him. She was too busy cuddling Frosch and going on about how cute he is. Rogue smiled. Frosch seemed to like her attention. "So, your wolf, what can it do?" he asked studying the white canine. "Oh, you'll find out soon enough." Dani said and smiled.
Sting, Gray and Charle were having trouble finding Ghoul Spirit's base. "I thought that guild was disbanded," Gray mumbled. "They reformed while you were gone for seven years," Sting said. "Their base should be somewhere right around… here!" he exclaimed when he found the base. "Let's get this over with..." Charle mumbled.
All teams were ready to go.
