Hey guys! It's me! I hope you liked the last chapter. It was soooo cheesy. Anyway, I hope you like this chapter.
Disclaimer ~ I do not own Fairy Tail
We continued the journey home, this time with Rin and Alex. Lucy hasn't said anything since The Unknown unleashed his power against Alex.
I touched Lucy's shoulder, causing her to jump.
"You ok?" I asked.
"Yah, I'm just a little shaken up," Lucy says. It shows in her face. Even Wendy seemed to be taking it better than Lucy.
"I'm sorry about him, The Unknown that is," I apologize.
"It's ok," She says. "I'm just surprised, is all."
"He can be like that sometimes," I say. I look at The Unknown, he walks ahead of the group. His hood is up again.
"Anyway, I apologize for his behaviour," I apologize one last time and fall back with Rin.
"I'm sorry about the Unknown," I apologize.
"Who?" She asks.
"The guy in the front with the black cloak," I say. "I should probably tell you who everyone is first, though,"
"The guy in the front as I mentioned before, is The Unknown. The guy with the spiky pink hair is Natsu. The girl with pink hair is Mai. By the way, they are not related. The girl with the red hair is Erza. The guy with the black hair is Gray. That girl with the curly brown hair is Alex. And I'm Crystal," I say.
"That's overwhelming," Rin says.
"I'm sorry," I say. "I probably shouldn't have poured all those names over you. Anyway, do have anywhere to go after this?"
"No, my family was killed, and I was taken hostage. My entire village is gone, I have no home," Rin says darkly.
"Oh," is all I can say as my family's death comes back to me.
I look up and see that we have arrived at the Fairy Tail guild.
We walk inside, and I give Rin something to eat as I explain the situation to the guild master.
"What do we about them?" I ask.
"Where did you find them?" The guild master asks.
"Rin was a hostage, and Alex was the leader, but then saved me when she realized what she had done,"
"Oh I see," He says. "We could recruit someone like them, if they don't have anywhere to go."
"I'll ask them if they want to join," I say.
"Ok, I'm going to check up on the others," He says and disappears.
I sit down next to Rin.
"So are you feeling any better?" I ask.
"Yah a little," She says.
I have no idea how to ask her if she wants to join Fairy Tail, so I just ask "Do you use any magic?"
"I can use a little healing magic, but that's it," She says.
"That's ok, would you like to join Fairy Tail?" I ask bluntly.
"Ummm…. Sure why not," She says.
"Really?!" I almost yell in excitement.
"Yah sure," She says.
That was easier than I thought it would be. I get up and look around for Alex and find her sitting by herself at a table, reading.
"If you would excuse me for just a minute," I say and go to Alex.
I sit down next to her and she doesn't seem to notice.
"Alex, you in there," I say.
She jumps and looks at me. "I didn't notice you!" She exclaims.
"Sorry about that," I say.
"It's ok," she says. "Is there any reason you came here?"
"Actually yah. Would you like to join Fairy Tail?" I asked.
"Yes of course!" Alex exclaims enthusiastically.
"Yay!" I exclaim.
I reported back to the guild master and told him that they wanted to join.
"Oh really? Take them to Mirajane and give them the stamp," The guild master orders.
"Yes sir," I say.
I walk over to Rin and Alex.
"Hey guys, come with me for a second," I say.
"Where are we going?" Rin asks.
"To get your Fairy Tail marks," I say.
I see Rin's eyes light up in excitement. "Really?" She asks.
"Of course you are," I say.
I walk over to Mira and tell her about the situation.
"Yay! We have 2 new guild members!" Mira exclaims and grabs the stamp from behind the counter.
"I'm Mirajane, but you can call me Mira. What are your names?" She asks.
"I'm Rin."
"And I'm Alex."
"Nice to meet you, where would you like your guild marks?" Mira asks.
"I would like mine on my right wrist," Alex says.
"That's a unique place to put it," Mira says, and proceeds to put the mark on the inside of her wrist.
"And I would like mine on my left palm, please," Rin says.
"Of course," Mira says and puts the stamp on Rin's left palm.
"I hope you both like it here at the guild," Mira says and returns to the counter.
"Yay! Now that you guys are an official part of the guild, can we form a team?" I ask.
"Sure," Alex says.
"Can it be us three, and The Unknown?" I ask.
"Sure, why not," Rin says.
We walk to the table that the Unknown is sitting at. I sit down next to him, and Alex and Rin sit in front of us.
The Unknown looks up from his book, and see us sitting around him. "Can I help you?"
"Yes you can. Would you like to be a part to our team. Like me, Alex and Rin?" I ask.
"... I suppose." The Unknown answered.
"You relented easier than I thought you would," I say suspiciously.
"YAY!" Rin exclaimed so loudly, it made me and Alex jump. The Unknown just looked up over the top of his book.
"Well anyway, we should get going guys" I decide. "Before we get annoying."
We get up and go to the request board. We get there, but Natsu jumps in front of us before we can pick a mission.
He points directly at me and says "Fight me!"
I push him out of the way and proceed to pick up a request.
Natsu gets up and tries to kick me. I dodge and he ends up kicking Gray.
"Get out of the way, Ice princess," Natsu says.
"You kicked me, Flame brain," Gray retaliates.
"Do I hear fighting over there?" Erza asks.
"No Ma'am," They say in unison.
"That's what I thought," Erza says and turns back around to her cake.
Well now that that's taken care of.
"What do you guys feel like?" I ask.
"I don't know," Rin replies unsure.
"How 'bout this one?" Alex suggests picking up one that says
Save the Deforma Village from raging beasts.
Reward ~ 100,000 jewel
"Ok, works for me. I'll go ask The Unknown if he wants to join us," I agree and leave to ask the Unknown.
I got to where he was sitting, but the second I sit down, Natsu comes rushing over again.
"Fight me," He challenges.
"..." The Unknown glares at him.
"Aye sir!" Natsu squeaks and walks off quickly.
"Thanks," I say.
"No problem, is something wrong?" The Unknown asks.
"No not really, it's just that we picked a mission and we want you to join us," I explain.
"What's the mission?" The Unknown asks.
I explain the mission and tell him about the reward.
"... Sure" The Unknown relents.
"Ok, let's go," I say and walk over to get the request.
I take the request from the board and then Natsu walks over again and takes the request from the board.
"Hey give it back," I say.
"You're gonna have to fight me for it," Natsu says.
He's only a little taller than I am so I can probably reach it if he holds it over his head, but he doesn't. He holds it behind his back.
Ugh, I guess I have no choice.
I don't bother changing into my demon. I won't need it. Instead I dash behind him and take the request.
"See you later," I say and walk out the guild door with Alex, Rin and The Unknown trailing after me.
Team Natsu dashes after us again. Seems like we'll never be on a quest alone.
"What's the quest?" Natsu asks.
"None of your business," I say. I'm so mad at him I can barely think straight.
"Aw, come on. It was just a joke," Natsu says.
I look at Alex and Rin. "Alex how fast can you run?"
Alex grins. "I see where this is going,"
I look at the Unknown. "You up for another race?" I ask.
"Sure..." The Unknown answers silently
"Rin, you can come with me," I say to Rin. "Is that ok?"
"Yah sure," Rin says. I pick her up and get into a running position.
"On your marks, get set, go!" I yell.
We set off, and even though I'm slowed down by Rin I can still run really fast. Alex runs into the forest on the left and The Unknown is long gone. I run into the forest on the right and jump into a tree. I jump around from tree to tree and then find The Unknown disappearing and reappearing all around the main path. As for Alex, she's nowhere to be seen.
I stop for a second to catch my breath, and see Natsu about 7 miles away running to catch up.
I look at Rin and she look terrified. "I'm sorry about this Rin. It's just that I'm mad at Natsu for being such an idiot."
"It's ok," Rin says. "It's just your heart is beating so fast and I don't want to wear you out."
"I'll be fine, we only have about 6 miles left to go," I pant. "Hold on tight."
I get up and keep dashing through the trees. After a while I see the Village drawing nearer and then see the Unknown waiting outside. The gate is closed and Alex comes out of the left forest area. I jump out of the right area and smile.
"Looks like I lost," I say, but I'm not mad.
I turn around to make sure that Team Natsu hasn't caught up.
"It looks like we lost them," I say and let Rin down.
I knock on the gate and someone opens the door. This person had blonde hair and dark green eyes. kind of an odd combination. He wore a t-shirt and a pair of jeans. He had a light skin colour.
"Can we enter?" Alex asks after a long period of silence.
"Where are you from?" The person asks.
"We're from Fairy Tail. I'm Crystal," I say. "You sent a request to us to save you from some raging beasts."
"Oh yah, I remember now," He say. "I'm Julian, nice to meet you,"
"Nice to meet you too," I say as I walk in with the others walking in behind me. I point to each of the others in turn. "That's the Unknown. That's Alex and that's Rin."
"Pleasure to meet you," Rin says.
"Same here," Alex says.
The Unknown keeps quiet, but he nods his head.
The gates start to close behind us, but then all of a sudden I'm pushed to the ground. My eyes are closed, but when I open them I see that Team Natsu is standing at the gates. I feel so enraged right now.
I stand up and brush myself off.
"Didn't I tell you not to come?!" I almost yell at them. "We can handle this ourselves."
"I don't think you can," Natsu grins. "Just let us help out."
"Whatever, just don't get in the way," I mutter, turning around to face Julian.
"Whatever you say," Natsu says.
Dimwit...
