May sat on a railing looking out onto the sea, she heard there was a boat that had the Salamander on it. She had her cloak around her and a basket of cherries in her hand. The night was falling, so was Natsu. The fire dragon slayer boy, was shooting down from the sky and landing on the ship. May popped in seedless cherries as the scene played out. The ship swayed making May laugh, she knew Natsu has terrible motion sickness, and yet he entered a boat. A blue winged creature flew out carrying a busty woman. May mouth dropped and looked at her own chest as she silently wept on the huge comparison.
Hearing a splash, May looked up and chuckled as she realized both Happy and the woman had fell into the sea. She popped another piece cherry into her mouth as she laid back. Small heads floated above sea level, and heard the girl screaming some comprehensible words. A flash of light appeared and a mermaid with a vase came out. May chewed on a cherry stem, noting that woman was a celestial wizard. May twisted her black key necklace and waited for something good would happen. Cold air blew against her ripped black tights. Her black high waist shorts were clinging to her stomach, on her torso her appearance looked like a black top with red stitching. On her shoulders were dark grey metal protecting her collar bone and hiding the rope scars.
May wrapped herself in her red cloak as it hid herself from the cold. Some call her Little Red Riding hood because of her red cloak and basket full of cherries. May thought it was because of her red glass eye. She laughed as Aquarius, the water barrier of the 12 golden gates, took out the ship and the woman. She was on the edge of her seat when the ship flipped over on it's side on the bay of the town. The boat was set into flames as a man was punched into the sky. May took a cherry from the basket. She held it up to her face with a smirk.
"A black cherry huh?" May mumbled to herself as she stood on top of the balcony and rushed onto the rooftops. She raced on the roof tiles her silhouette could be seen running through the town. Right in front of her was the two laughing teenagers, May clicked her tongue and ran faster to get between them and the council army.
Natsu and the girl ran out of town with guards behind them. Out from the sky a figure flew down in front of many noble guards. The cobble stone road cracked, and the girl looked up with a paranormal look, a bright red eye could be seen through the darkness. Natsu and the girl laughed and smiled, as the decreased of guards chased them. The next day Natsu and the new girl showed up at the guild.
May was drinking water while using a twisty straw. May got a bad migraine after she used her dark magic yesterday. She looked up at Mirajane, the barmaid, though Mira is a really strong demon. The door crashed open and May spitted out her drink onto Mira. May grumbled and apologized to Mira before she took her stance, her attention dragged onto the suspect.
"Natsu! What in Makarov's name do you think you're doing?" May said as master sneezed up from his office. Her furry appeared as black shadows lit around her. Natsu ignore the raging girl as he kicked a poor guild mate in the face, yelling at him for telling the wrong information. May grasped the pyromaniac, on the shoulder and gave him the death glare. He shuddered before gulping. Lucy shuddered as she saw May's red eye, that didn't match her normal black eye.
Fists went flying everywhere and also the guild furniture, as the unknown girl shook. Mirajane walked over to the girl and introduced herself to the girl who was named 'Lucy'. A table flew in the direction of the two and hitting Mira in the face. Lucy sweat dropped and asked the famous barmaid if she was okay. It was about time a the giant appeared. May looked up and smiled.
"Ay! Master what's up." May yelled with blood running down her forehead and mouth. She smeared the blood onto her forearm, and leaned onto a broken table. He silenced the guild before giving them a lecture while May picked her fingers, hearing this too many times from Precht. Master began to select individual on the council damage reports, when he read off Natsu's list, Natsu whined.
"What about May's? She has done a lot worse than I have!" Natsu yelled earning a large fist slamming down on him. May snickered with a reply.
"I've done it way too many times, and I know how to do damage without getting caught. Maybe because I am smarter." she replied earning the other fist from Makarov. She winced and slumped. While the two dragon slayers passed out, the guild celebrated with the new member, Lucy, Lucy looked over at the two passed out dragon slayers, and a bright gleamed, catching the blonde's attention. It was a black key hanging off of May's chest. Lucy gasp in thought of another celestial spirit mage. She didn't think to find another mage to have the same magic as her or her mother. Lucy was excited to talk about the spirits with May.
Some time in the night May woke up with a bad headache. She stretched and looked around her surroundings. It was Tenrou island. May scratched her head making her hair frizz. Even though it was dark, the fairies of the island would dance around giving off light. May stuck out her hand letting a few leap on her palms. She giggled as tiny feet tickled her hand. May sighed before stretching and letting the throbbing pain reduce a bit. May decided to visit Mavis' grave before finding her way back onto main land.
Unique creatures scurried along in the tall trees, or resting for the night. May pushed branches out of the way before spotting the old grave. Old vines and mildew was all over Mavis' grave. She kneel down and said a prayer then started to clean Mavis' grave. While May was humming a beautiful tune, a voice joined in. May knew it was indeed Ms. Vermillion, so she relaxed.
"How are you Mavis?" May asked without looking up from her grave. When Mavis spoke up she stopped to listen.
"I am doing fine, how are you miss May? I heard people call you Little Red, with your pretty red cape." Mavis replied with a smile, and May replied with sigh.
"It's not a cape, it's a cloak. They only call me Little Red because I have a red eye. I'm not even little, I am as tall as Gray!" May groaned in frustration. She wiped of the grime from her hands onto her pants. She wiped her forehead and sat crossed-legged in front of Mavis. Mavis played with her hands while looking down. May catches on ask, "What's wrong?"
"You can't be here. It's not safe for you, because Zeref is here." Mavis said worriedly. May got confused then Mavis gasped when she realized she said something she wasn't supposed.
"Mavis, who is Zeref?"
It was around noon when May got back from the Fairy's holy ground. She was a bit groggy due to the lack of sleep, but the rest of the guild was up and bright. May twirled her diamond ring that sat on her left ring finger. Mirajane saw the shinny object and squealed, she rushed over to the sleepy mage. While the white hair woman pulled hand which held the ring, other female mages came over to see. Even the new girl, Lucy, came to see what the commotion was all about.
"You're engaged?!" Mira yelled, making the male member's jaw drop. They whispered among themselves wondering who the poor fellow was. May looked down and shook her head.
"It's my good-luck charm." May replied with a half smile. Mira noticed her expression, and dropped the subject more about the ring. Happy didn't quite catch on as he flew into May's lap.
"Why do you need good luck?" He said looking up. May petted his blue head, and replied, "I feel something big is going to happen."
Just when she said that, the guild doors opened and a large shadow appeared, and a female stepped in. She was carrying a large monster's horn on one shoulder. Her name was Erza Scarlet. May hopped over people to get to Ezra. Before May could get to her, Erza tackled May instead. They both laughed as the other's sweat dropped. Both Erza and May are part of the "Demonic Trio". It includes Mira, when she is in the Satan Soul form. The three are unstoppable even if they don't use their and Mira was talking at the bar about Erza.
"Did you know May taught Erza how to control her magic. Though I have never seen May use her magic before." Mira said while cleaning a cup. Lucy was about to ask when she felt an arm rested on her shoulders. She looked up and saw it was May. May placed a woven basket on the counter, letting Mira fill it up with cherries.
""Hey there Luigi." May said as Lucy replied, 'It's Lucy!'. Lucy's eyes wondered towards May's black key.
"Are you a celestial spirit mage?" Lucy asks May touched the black key.
"Oh no, this looks like a key doesn't it? It's a teleportation tool, it allows me to teleport anywhere this key is, but it can only be used by a person who can summon things." May replied twirling the chain and handing the her key to Luce.
"Oh so that means I can use the key!" Lucy exclaims as she got a hold of the black key. May walked a few feet away when Lucy summoned her. May's body fazed a little before appearing in front of the blonde. May took a seat next to her while Lucy added the key into her key holder. "So why isn't it using up my energy?"
"Yeah, because it uses my magic instead of yours. So you can call me when your in trouble." May said facing Lucy. Natsu came over and asked if she wanted to go on a mission with Happy and him. Before they left for the Mansion Mission, Natsu yelled that he wanted to fight May and Erza when they come back. May just shrugged it off like usual and went to sleep.
