The Black Dragon Slayer of the Apocalypse

Chapter 9

*flashback continues*

A week after Haruhi joined the guild

"NOOOOOOOO!" Haruhi cried as she was dragged away by the infamous, Erza Scarlet.

"You were the one who asked me if I could teach you. I don't understand why you keep trying to run away." Erza told the crying girl.

"I didn't know that your training's so intense. I could die." Haruhi protested.

"If you die that only means that you simply not cut out to be a wizard" Erza said coldly.

"Hey Haruhi you shouldn't worry Erza will never let you die!" Shouted Macao.

"It's true! However it might scar you for life like it did when she taught Natsu how to read." Wakaba said to Haruhi.

Haruhi looked as if she was about to cry. A fireball then hit Wakaba's head. "Damn you Wakaba no one's allowed to make my little sister cry." Natsu was heading straight for Erza.

"Take one more step and I'll take you along for training." Erza threatened. Natsu stopped in his tracks.

Haruhi: It did scar him for life

Haruhi then began to cry. At the sight of his little sisters tears, Natsu gathered all the courage he had left, closed his eyes, took a deep breath and charged at Erza.

All Erza did was clench her fist and put it in Natsu's direction.

Instant knockout.

He pummelled his own face with the momentum he got whilst running. Erza then grabbed Natsu's leg and dragged him along with Haruhi.

"This will prove to be a good sibling bonding time." Erza said, unaffected.

Over the next few months that was how Haruhi spent her time in Fairy Tail. It was as if she was meant to be in there. Haruhi got along with everyone, became close to Natsu and even Gray.

"So have you learnt how to use your magic properly yet Haruhi?" Asked Gray.

"What do think I've been doing with Erza all these months?" Haruhi countered.

"Erm… working together to figure out a way to defeat me?" Gray smiled as he shrugged his shoulders.

Haruhi laughed. "You wish. Erza has already beaten you with one hand, whilst eating a cake. Why would she need me?"

"Please don't remind me." Gray looked down in shame as reminisced that forbidden day in his head. Chills went down his spine.

"Hey Gray! Come back to reality!" She screamed.

Gray looked up humiliated and received a slap in the face.

"Oww!"

"Now that I have your attention once more I can continue. So, of course I've learnt how to use my magic the problem is to find attacks that go with them. According to Erza my full strength is of the charts, so even when I'm holding back I still cause a heck of a lot of destruction. It most likely was the same with the other first generation dragon slayers, however they're dragons would have helped them control it and stuff. She also told me that I'm actually the opposite of most people as they are trying to get stronger where as I'm trying to get weaker… In a sense."

"What! You're really that powerful! But getting weaker… isn't that… counterproductive?"

"(sigh) I guess but… it's vital… or I might end up killing someone one day."

"…" Gray had averted his eyes as he had only just realised the burden Haruhi bared. She wanted to get stronger so that one day she could defeat the dragon that killed hers and Natsu's parents, but so far all she has accomplished is the opposite. Gray looked at Haruhi preparing himself, all he saw was her back. "Hey Haruhi what's the matter?"

Haruhi ignored him and continued to look away.

Gray: did I just make a stupid face or what? Maybe I said something I shouldn't have. Maybe she's going to ignore forever.

There was so much pandemonium going on in Gray's head his eyes started to blur and he felt like the world was spinning.

"YOUR CLOTHES GRAY." Cana shouted from the other side of the guild hall. She had been in the corner pretending to be looking at her cards, however was actually spying on Guildarts. He had returned from his last job two days prior.

Gray slowly looked down.

"OH CRAP!" He ran from Haruhi into one of the rooms. The master had given Gray his own wardrobe inside the guild so that he always had clothes to put on when in the guild.

Everyone in the hall was laughing as Gray ran into one of the inside rooms.

Haruhi: Damn it! I'm usually really composed when Gray removes his clothes. I act like everyone else. But he… caught me off guard today. I hope he didn't notice. I hope no one noticed.

Haruhi's face had turned the rosiest pink. She too ran from the guild hall and into Natsu's home.

No one knew they were coming. No one knew that in one day their lives were going to change. And soon no one will know that Haruhi even existed.

In an unknown place in the sky

"Are you sure about this master? Not annihilating Fairy tail? I mean whilst we…"

"Enough! You are simply not ready yet. It is vital we have her but we won't be able to take down the entire guild including Makarov and Guildarts. At least not yet. For now get me Haruhi's hair, it's the only way the spell, that I've been making these past couple of years, will work Ultear."

"Yes master Hades." Replied Ultear, she bowed and left the company of the master of Grimoire Heart. Though she was young Ultear still possessed incredible power and her young age only proved as advantage especially in espionage.

Ultear: Even though I've been banned from attacking that wretched guild at least we'll be getting another key for releasing Zeref's power.

Guild Hall the next day

'Knock knock'

The guild was as full as ever. Haruhi was standing between Natsu and Gray to prevent them from fighting. Guildarts was laughing at Haruhi's useless attempts. Wakaba and Macao were in the corner drinking heavily. Cana was sitting alone on a table not too far from where Guildarts was and Mira-Jane tried to pick a fight with Erza. Upon hearing the door knock Haruhi thought it was the perfect opportunity to get away from the fight that she failed to stop.

She walked towards and opened the door. "Hi, welcome to Fairy Tail. What would you like?"

Haruhi looked at the beautiful, black haired girl; she was a few years elder to her and was wearing a knee length, blue pinafore. She had already fallen into the lions trap before even realising she had been its pray.

"I want you"

It was already too late.
