Well, so much for publishing more frequently, (is my grammar right there?) You guys know how it is. I have stuff going on, and don't get to spend much time online. I am trying though. Anyway, here's chapter 5. This one is mainly about Wendy showing everyone what she can do.
Chapter 5- Magic Does Exist!
By the time Fairy Tail and the three student ninja got to the arena, Kakashi and Jiraiya were by the gaite, waiting for them. "Welcome," Kakashi greets them." "We've been for you." Erza nods her thanks. Jiraiya gives her a smile. "There are many people watching, all longing to get a glimpse of your power, so be sure to have fun while you are out there. We want a good show." Erza returns his smile. "Of course, old friend. "Gasps were heard all around. "You know the pervy sage?" Naruto asks her, earning an evil stare from Jiraiya. The redhead laughs. "Yes, I know him, although our initial meeting wasn't a pleasant one." Looking at the toad sage for approval to continue. After seeing him nod, Erza explains.
"I once got a job offer to stop someone who was spying on the women in a little town close to Magnolia. We met on a bridge, and after seeing his face, I remembered it to this day. This man is now one of the legendary three ninja, his power only rivaled by the hokage, Lady tsunade, and another ninja who bears a dark name I dare not speak aloud. This dark ninja had conducted experiments on innocent people, trying to gain control over every jutsu in existence. Jiraiya on the other hand, has lost some of his touch with age, and might not even be able to defeat me in combat." she finishes with a smile. Naruto pales. "Someone who could beat the pervy sage, without even being a ninja?"
Jiraiya laughs. "Age has done me no harm. I doubt you could put a scratch on me, Titania." Naruto looks to Sakura. "This lady doesn't look that scary, or strong for that matter. She just looks like a normal person. "Would you care to test that theory, Jiraiya?" she asks him pleasantly, an eighteen-foot long hammer suddenly appearing in her hand. Jiraiya pales, matching the shade of Naruto and Sakura. Sasuke smirks. "What are you two scared of? It's probably just rubber or something.
Erza hearing this, sets the hammer down, instantly creating an eight foot deep crater in the ground next to her. Sasuke turns a shade of pale that reminded Erza of the purest of snow. Jiraiya decides to compromise. "Maybe later, but for now, we need to get you guys in the arena. Erza nods, allowing the hammer to disappear and slip into the dimensional pocket she took it from. "Who the hell are these people?" Sasuke asks Kakashi. The elder ninja shrugs, continuing to read his book. As they shuffle into the arena, Jiraiya looks back at Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke. "You kids should really watch these Fairy Tail members. Their skills and abilities are on a completely different level than ours. Not even Kakashi or you, Sasuke, could use your Sharingan eyes to copy their actions."
The three genin pale to the point of looking like ghosts. As everyone sits down, Jiraiya and Naruto sit in the seats right behind Erza and Cana. "Why are we sitting behind them, pervy sage?" Naruto asks his mentor. Jiraiya winks at him. "To get a better view of the action," He answers. Naruto, not understanding what Jiraiya is saying, turns back around to see Cana stretch, leaning forward, her tight pants giving the two ninja a perfect view of her… "You're disgusting, pervy sage," Naruto says to the old man. Jiraiya gives him a stern look, his face dripping from a mixture of drool and his nosebleed. "You'll understand when you're older, kid." Erza hears their conversation. "Cana, sit down. Jiraiya, knock it off before I show you what I can do with that hammer." Jiraiya pales again. "Yes ma'am." Now, Naruto was scared. His teacher, one of the legendary three ninja had just been silenced by some lady Naruto didn't even know. Despite seeing her hold a giant battle hammer, Naruto had to wonder if Erza was really that strong. "I guess I'll find out." he says to himself.
Now, a different voice is heard. The voice of the 5th hokage is heard over all other sounds. Standing in her most regal pose, she addresses the crowd. "Perhaps some of you were there when we welcomed Fairy Tail to our guild. I want you all to know that these people are not what they seem. All of them possess power equal to mine. Some of theme are probably stronger than me. This next part might come as a shock to you, but Fairy Tail also practices no ninjutsu or genjutsu."
The crowd starts yelling in rage. Tsunade sighs and snaps her fingers. Instantly, silence is heard again. "Now that we have that out of the way, Fairy Tail does practice some taijutsu, although not as much as the members of our village." Back in the stands, Cana sweatdrops. "Seriously? I thought she was going to improve our image," she says. Tsunade continues. "So, it is now an open fact that they do not use genjutsu, ninjutsu, and taijutsu. Fortunately, they have their own skills and abilities. This is what makes these people so strong. They have abilities that we could hardly dream of. The three legendary ninja would be no match against the combined power of Fairy Tail. As you know, the Chaos village has pretty much waged war on the leaf village. If we faced them on our own, there would be no question about our utter annihilation, but we are not facing them alone. We have Fairy Tail here now. They will aid us and bring us victory against the Chaos village!" Cheering erupts from the crowd. "Fairy Tail, please stand." Tsunade tells the wizard guild. "Now, all here, bow your head for the Fairy Tail anthem." Natsu cracks up. Erza, Cana, and Wendy glare at him. "Natsu," Erza begins. "What the hell did you do?" Again, the voice of the hokage is heard, but this time the words ring out in a sing-song voice.
Hail to Natsu, King of all.
Hail to Wendy, breasts so small.
Hail to dirty socks and more.
Hail to dirty magazines galore!
Hail to Fairy Tail!
When the words fade out, Natsu continues laughing his but off. He turns to look at his comrades. Wendy is definitely not laughing, Erza is giving him an extremely pissed look that pretty much says "Natsu Dragneel, I'm going to cut you open and sew your guts into a sweater," and Cana is laughing just as much as Natsu, tears falling from her eyes. "Oh man, Natsu! That was priceless." Mira nods her agreement. "I'm saving that one for the books," she says, rolling on the ground, laughing. Erza and Wendy continue to glare at Natsu. Catching their evil stares, he gives them a questioning look.
"I don't know why you guys are all mad at me. I only wrote the first line, and had never planned for it to be sung in public." Erza requips to her Purgatory armor. "As if I would believe that." Wendy stands between the two of them, shaking her head at Erza. "I believe him." she says. Erza comes closer, not yet getting rid of the armor. "And why is that Wendy? Just because the two of you are dating, doesn't mean you can protect him from me." Wendy again shakes her head. The reason I believe him, is that Natsu can't even spell magazine, much less write something that rhymes." Erza changes back to normal. "You have a good point, Wendy."
Tsunade once again continues. "Well, now that that's out of the way, I will begin calling you down to the arena one at a time. You will demonstrate your abilities by attacking the marble column in the middle of the will measure your power on a scale of numbers. I myself have only ranked up to a 46. I will be extremely impressed if one of you manages to beat my ranking. First up, we have the sky dragonslayer, Wendy." All eyes turn to the row where Fairy Tail sits, waiting to see which one of the members is Wendy. Shaking, the sky-maiden stands up, and begins walking down to the column. Natsu stops her before she leaves the row, bending a little to whisper something in her ear. A moment later, Wendy nods. "Ok, I will." she says as she continues walking. Howls of disappointment and rage are heard among the crowd. "What is the hokage thinking, letting a little girl like that fight our battles for us?" one person asks. "Yeah, she looks younger than Naruto." another person adds.
With another snap of her already smoking fingers, Tsunade quiets the crowd. "Why let a little girl fight your battles for you, you ask? I honestly don't see why you consider them your battles, when half of the village is too lazy to learn any jutsu. Now, all of you, shut up and watch!" she yells to the crowd.
Back in the stands, Erza looks at Natsu. "What did you tell her to do?" she asks the pink haired dragonslayer. Natsu smiles. "Oh, just a little spell we came up with." Back on the field, Wendy stands a couple yards away from the column. Turning her head to the sky, she begins sucking in all the air she can hold. A couple minutes later, she cups her hands together, and blows all the air into the makeshift bowl. Wendy quickly squeezes her hands together, shaping the wind into a ball no bigger than an apple. Once satisfied, she jumps into the air, and throws the ball of wind at the ground below her.
"Sky dragon hurricane!" she yells as she floats back down to the ground. The moment the words leave her mouth, the ball grows into an enormous cyclone of concentrated air. Cana spits out the booze she was drinking. "Holy crap! Wendy just made a tornado!" When the tornado touches the column, Wendy touches her right hand to her left, open palm, as if praying. Seconds later, the tornado combusts, creating a huge crater in front of the column. The score appears in the sky. 49. The crowd cheers. "That girl just ranked higher than the hokage!" someone yells.
Wendy bows and walks back up the stairs to her cheering friends. Natsu wraps her in a hug. "That was awesome! That was way cooler than when we practiced it." The sky maiden wraps her arms around him. Again, Tsunade's voice is heard. "This 'little girl' just broke my record on her first try. As I said before, Fairy Tail does not use jutsu. Instead they rely on a power that has been lost for hundreds of years, only remembered by a select few people today. This lost art allows them to change the energy of their body into a tangible substance. This power that you just witnessed, is called magic, and it may just save us all."
