Hi guys! I'm so so sorry I haven't updated in a month. I've been busy w/ school and I've been working more on New Adventures than this, plus I've had really bad writer's block for this story. Any suggestions would be great. This chapter isn't the best and I don't really like it, but I really have no idea what to write. Anyways, enjoy.
"So what do the four houses mean?" I asked the other Fairy Tail mages I was sitting with.
"It's stupid," Gajeel grumbled. When he didn't elaborate I turned to Mirajane for a better explanation. "Well he's not wrong," Lily muttered.
"The houses are based off of personality traits. Slytherin is for people that are cunning and ambitious," the Satan soul mage explained. "As you've probably figured out, Ravenclaw is for smart people, Hufflepuff is for loyalty, and Gryffindor is for the brave."
"It's completely dysfunctional in terms of unity as a school," Lily added. "All of the other houses hate people in Slytherin."
"I think so too," Frosch spoke up. "What do you think Lector?"
"Who cares what other people think, we're still going to talk to our friends," my exceed declared and I smiled.
"Everyone thinks we're weird but it's not like we can't pretend to hate our friends," Draco spoke up. "Well actually, maybe except for the dragon slayers and Gray." We all chuckled and snickered at the true statement.
"Who's in charge of Sabertooth since you're here?" Gajeel asked and I looked at Rogue who had been silent the whole time. Not like it was uncommon.
"I put Minerva in charge. She'll be a good replacement," I answered the iron dragonslayer. Mira opened her mouth but then there was yelling from the Gryffindor table. "Sounds like Natsu and Gray," I observed and Mira laughed while Gajeel groaned.
"Moron," was all he muttered before he turned his attention back to his food. A few moments later he seemed to be getting annoyed. "Salamander shut up! If you don't I'll just have to shut your mouth for you!"
"You want to go Metal Face? Stay out of this Gray!" Lucy was shaking her head while Evelyn looked like she was biting back laughter. Before Natsu could say anything more, Erza punched him in the head and he fell back onto his seat rubbing his head. "That hurt," I heard him complain before Evelyn told him that he "had it coming."
"How has Evelyn been since the attack?" Rogue asked, breaking his silence. Gajeel, Mirajane, Draco, and Lily glanced at each other. It was Draco who answered.
"I think she's been ok," the second-generation dragonslayer observed. "Although it's hard to tell with her; even if she is having trouble she doesn't show it. Oh I just remembered! Do you guys see the professor that looks like a toad and is wearing pink?"
"Hard to miss," I snickered and Malfoy cracked a smile.
"Try not to make her angry. The others and I already had this conversation, but she hates half-breeds of any kind. And since-,"
"Since we're technically half dragon, half human she'll hate us?" Rogue predicted. Draco and Gajeel were nodding.
"She almost lost it when Salamander, his sister, Wendy, and I told the school about our powers."
"And she reports everything back to the Minister of Magic, the government official of this world," Mirajane added. "We have a feeling she's telling him everything about us."
"Not that it'll make a difference 'cause I think we can beat them," Lector stated with his usual overconfident attitude.
"True enough," Gajeel grunted. "When the hunters came and attacked the magic here barely affected them." I thought about that for a while.
"I think this'll be interesting," I decided. "We'll see where it goes from here. If any more hunters come back we'll give them hell."
That Saturday, the Quidditch match that had been postponed was going to be replayed. Rogue, Lector, Frosch, and I followed the throng of Slytherin students into their section of the stands, eventually threading through the crowd to find Mirajane, Gajeel, and Lily. "Where have you guys been?" Mirajane asked us.
"We got lost," Rogue answered. "This castle is huge."
"Draco showed us around when we got here. We'll have to show you around later," Mirajane said.
"You don't think the hunters will attack again do you?" Frosch asked as he looked up at Rogue.
"No, I don't think they will, from what I heard you guys took care of them," Rogue replied comforting his exceed. "They'll need more time to regroup and figure out their next step."
"In the mean time let's just enjoy this," Mirajane suggested with a smile and we eagerly agreed. Throughout the game Gajeel was explaining the rules to us and more than once the three of us got motion sick from just watching all the people on brooms fly through the air.
"I wonder if we could have a Quidditch game with our magic instead of brooms," I mused out loud.
"I think that could work," Rogue agreed slowly. "I think everybody would be excited to see it."
"The only problem is we would probably blow up the stadium," Mirajane commented cheerfully with laughter in her voice.
"I think Shrimp could come up with something," Gajeel amended, using his nickname for Levy.
"She probably could," Mirajane nodded. "We'll talk to the others about it after the game is over. Now lets start taking bets."
"Bets about what?" Rogue asked and Gajeel groaned.
"Keep this stupid stuff away from me, we get enough of this back home," was all the iron dragonslayer offered before tuning us out.
"Bets about what?" Rogue repeated and Mirajane gave a smile that was so innocent it seemed demonic.
"Oh you know, couples, who'll fight who, who will be the person to blow something up, stuff like that," she rattled off innocently and Rogue and I shared a glance.
"We'll get back to you on that," I told her and she seemed downcast for the rest of the game. "Is there usually a betting system in Fairy Tail?"
Mira nodded, "Cana and I usually work together on it, you can earn a lot of money through it."
I laughed, "just when I thought Fairy Tail couldn't get any crazier."
"Don't encourage her," Gajeel grumbled. "That drunk won twenty thousand jewel because Shrimp and I went on a job together." I burst into laughter, seeming to distract everyone from the game. "It ain't funny Eucliffe."
"I'd ask if she could come up with any bets for Sabertooth but I think I'd be scared," Rogue commented in a low voice. I just laughed again while Gajeel gave a nod in agreement.
