Crossover Adventures 2: Seto, the Lost Mage
Sup everyone, Tenshi is back again. I don't know, but I've been reading an insane amount of Fairy Tail, Bleach, Naruto, Hellsing, RWBY, YJ and even JL crossovers for inspiration for this series. I think the hardest part of this is choosing which characters would suit what crossover so honestly, it'll probably change or whatever. Anyway, we're in December, my birthday's on Friday and I'm gonna enjoy it since I'm getting ORAS for my birthday as well as a new graphic tablet. I also want to get a Tumblr up 'n running so I can talk to you guys or something, it's one of those things.
Anyway, after much deliberation (and a couple of Creepypastas) let's jump into this Fairy Tail cross~~
Disclaimer: I don't own Fairy Tail and KD because, let's face it, my biggest inspiration is the yaoi section on Mangago and Konoha still isn't my bae.

Something was wrong.
Erza didn't know what, nor did she have even the slightest idea as to why she was feeling this way, but somehow, something was wrong.
Horribly, horribly wrong.
The red-haired mage stared placidly into her strawberry cake, raising eyebrows since she hadn't even touched her beloved desert. A sudden hair of pink was tossed into her table, throwing the treat onto the floor and shattering the ceramic plate into small, white and blue shards.
Silence rained over the guild as all eyes fell upon the Titania and the Salamander in morbid curiosity as they awaited the inevitable thrashing that would soon occur.
However, that was the weird thing.
All the woman did was gently pick Natsu up and tell him to be more careful.
Shock didn't even begin to describe the expressions on the guild members faces. Cana helpfully supplied that perhaps Erza was taking the passive aggressive route to things which then caused Mira to chuckle stating that that was arguably worse than outright aggression.
Poor Natsu was writing his will with the help of his blue Exceed, Happy.
In all of this ridiculous speculation, no one noticed a small, thin figure open and close the guild doors and take a seat at a table, in the far corner.

Seto was scared.
The teen was extremely small in stature thanks to that weird lady with the long black hair and strange orbs. She had told him that it was because of him that Lady Marry was killed and his brother Kano was missing. Kido, Kano's fiancé, had passed away in the initial attacks on their small kingdom Kagerou.
Kagerou was a little ways off the edge of the Fiore border, however, because of the minute force the kingdom carried politically, they were a very recluse area. Only those that had trade routes with the kingdom even knew that it existed, however, now, there was no hope.
The placed was burnt to an ashy crisp thanks to surrounding kingdoms and that blasted Magic Council. They had called his homeland a threat to Era due to the sheer power the Knights of Clearing Eyes possessed. In reality though, it was because Queen Ayano and King Shintaro had refused to have anything to do with the council. The council wished to have a guild situated in the capital of Kagerou in order to 'bring more tourism to the land' when, in reality, they just wanted to keep an eye on the tradition of the place and, if possible, learn the secrets of the kingdom and pass that magic down to other political scum claiming that they had 're-discovered' the 'Lost Magic'.
It pissed him off to insane levels and after damn near a decade of them insistently bothering the Royal Palace, the King challenged their champion to a duel. The rules were a simple contract.
If Era's champion won, a guild would be built.
If the king won, they would leave the kingdom alone and forget it ever existed in the first place.
Plain and simple, the king won in three seconds flat with one well-placed punch.
Enraged and embarrassed, the council backed off stating that it wouldn't be the end and they left the kingdom alone.
For three years.
On the eve of August 17th, the date of the Haze Festival, the sky was lit up with large balls of compressed magic levelling the grounds and killing thousands in the first attack. The man who was defeated last time, Siegrain, launched an all-out war against the small kingdom.
No time was given to prepare, no initial warning or building pressure, no ransoms, no chances. It wasn't a war.
It was a massacre.
The Knights of Clearing Eyes was comprised of only seven mages. Of that seven, the only female, Takene, or Ene for short, was raped and murdered spurring Haruka, the eldest of the Kokonose brothers, into action. Much of the opposing force fell to his sword, Resistance, but he was killed by Ultear.
Of his remaining brothers, Kuroha and Konoha, aka the Checkerboard Twins, Konoha was imprisoned while Kuroha was forced to flee.
Kano, Seto's younger brother, was perceived to be dead but in reality, he had fled as well, ensuring that Kuroha had gotten away safely.
Hibiya, the youngest of the Knights, was mutilated beyond recognition.
The Royal family, Ayano, Shintaro and their daughter Marry were supposed to be taken prisoner but due to the amount of damage Shintaro had done to the armies, he was sealed away, causing the queen to die of grief and their daughter followed soon after as a result of hanging herself.
The only standing warrior, after the massacre had taken place, was one Kousuke Seto.
He was the last of the Knights of Clearing Eyes and the personal guard of the now deceased Lady Marry.
As the final survivor, apart from those mentioned above, he buried the dead, found the king (who was now a pendant) and, with a heavy heart and regret burning in his veins, the lost knight made his way to Fiore.
.
.
.
This leads us to his dilemma at this point. It had been at least a year or so since the attack and he had stumbled upon Magnolia and to a far greater extent, Fairy Tail.
Of course, after travelling for so long, he was bound to hear of the accomplishments of Fiore's number one guild and was now tasked with the decision of walking into the guild or passing the chance.
After much deliberation though, he shrugged his lanky shoulders and walked into the castle like building.

Just a couple minutes ago, Levy had discovered a teen that couldn't be younger than fourteen, sitting comfortably at one of the vacant tables and observing the entire cheesecake debacle with a mask of indifference.
He was short and extremely thin, like he hadn't eaten in weeks, with a pasty complexion and murky green eyes hidden behind soft ebony locks that covered a good part of his face. He wore a tattered off-white hoodie with green and white coloured Sound Pod brand earphones around his neck, the contraption vibrating at the music still playing through the earphones. His shirt was a royal purple colour with pale white trimmings and a strange design that no one had even seen before etched onto it. He wore simple white baggy pants that were stuffed into his knee-high black and green boots. The strangest things about him however, were the earring in his left ear and the fact that he carried three blades on his person.
The earring was a small black orb that lit up in a strange crimson colour every time the teen moved. What was stranger was the fact that it wasn't even connected by a visible piece of metal or otherwise and seemed to simply float directly under his pierced ear. On said ear was also a tattoo. It was in a deep blue and resembled a dragon taking flight. The tip of its tail ended where the earring floated and its head (though it was really just a rounded dot) sat comfortably above his right eye.
His blades were an interesting thing all their own since only one actually looked like a sword. The first resembled a katana and was in a dark blue scabbard that had a picture depicting an icy blue dragon. What was strange is that the entire thing seemed to produce a frosty mist around it and while the teen was unaffected, it was actually causing a thin layer of frost to appear around him.
The second wasn't much of a sword as much as it was a large pitch black halberd wrapped in what seemed to be transparent bandage. It was wrapped around the stranger by a long silver and red chain.
The third, and probably the strangest sword, wasn't even a sword, it was a tattoo.
An honest to goodness tattoo that was currently holding up against Erza's own blade.
The stranger had simply touched his hand and the jagged, thunderbolt shaped tattoo became a Chisa-Katana with a monochromatic tsuba. The short sword actually cracked and shattered the sword in the Titania's hand and the teen quickly sheathed… his kodachi before raising his hands in surrender.

Erza was throwing a fit.
First she had attacked the stranger in the room viciously which resulted in her Heart Kruez sword being shattered by his short sword. Now she was interrogating the poor teen. Or rather demanding answers from the small teen.
"What's your name?! Why are you in the guild? How did you sneak in undetected?"
Mira was inwardly panicking since she knew that if the boy didn't answer quickly enough, he might get the red-head's fist in his mouth for breakfast. Thus the white-haired barmaid, quickly and firmly told Lucy to haul Erza away from the teen before she broke his face. Kicking and screaming, Lucy managed to get Virgo to subdue the enraged Titania and allowed Mira to conduct the interrogation.
"I'm sorry about Erza; she's been moody all morning. Now, if it's not too much to ask, why did you sneak in?"
The teen tilted his head slowly before shaking it, much like a dog would when wet. He huffed slightly and dug in his pockets before pulling out three bright yellow hairpins and pinning his hair out of his face. Now that his eyes were visible, Mira couldn't help but stare at the deep, murky green his eyes were. By all means, green eyes weren't exactly uncommon, but that shade in particular resembled the shade of the forest's canopy on a sunny day, if you were looking up of course.
He rubbed his eyes briefly, revealing his black fingerless gloves, before looking at Mira and blinking rapidly. A bright smile lit up his pale, pasty face, nearly blinding Mira before he chuckled softly and in a soft, fleeting baritone that was definitely not the voice that should belong to someone of his age said politely, "I can't answer that until I know who it is I'm speaking. May I have your name Miss…?"
Mira blushed slightly at his mannerisms before catching herself and fanning her face quickly, "Mirajane. Mirajane Strauss but everyone calls me Mira."
The mysterious teen smiled before he placed a stray lock of hair behind his tattooed ear, "Right then, Lady Mira, I'm known as Kou. As for why I'm currently in your guild, I simply wish to join. Will that be a problem?"
Mira looked surprised for a second before smiling widely, "Mira is just fine and if you wish to join then that's no problem, none at all. The Master is currently away on business so all you need to do is tell me where to place the guild's mark and in what colour and that's it!"
Seto smiled softly at Mira's enthusiasm before taking off the glove on his left hand and presenting her with his left palm, "If it's all the same to you, Lady Mira, I'd like to have the mark upon my left palm in purple please."
Mira's eyebrow twitched slightly as she summoned the stamp and made quick work of stamping it upon the wanderer's palm. She was startled when he pulled his hand away from her quickly to examine the mark quickly. A broad smile settled itself upon his face as he stood with Mira.
"Everyone, please welcome our newest member, Kou!" she announced, grasping the attention of the guild. A couple of murmurs and curious glances as well as questions were thrown Kou's way, but he didn't respond. From across the room, glaring daggers at him was Erza, a glare that intensified ten-fold when he turned his head to her and smirked.
Erza was right. Something was horribly wrong with this new member.

Oh my worrrrrrrdddddddd! Finally finished with that!
I may or may not have gotten just a bit carried away with the story on this one because Serious! Seto is honestly one of the sexiest tings ever. In all honesty though, I might make this a two-shot or something because there is a lot to work with in the oneshot. For example,
'Why doesn't Erza like Seto?"
"Why won't he use his real name?"
"A tattoo for a sword, a halberd and a regular katana? Why?"
"How come he's so polite?"
All these questions and more might very well, never be answered since this is a one-shot series but, hey, who knows, if enough people ask for it then maybe I'll go ahead and make a part two for the bad boy. With all that said and done, don't forget to leave and review and favorite and/or follow and I'll see ya next time~~
