Fairy Tail Chapter 4: Lacrima
Laxus was having a fun time with his brother on the train. Akira was looking around while still holding his hand. It was a big responsibility for the 7-year-old to watch his 2-year-old brother but Laxus was determined to not let anything happen to him. Ivan watched his son in veiled disgust. Laxus was caring for the one who stood between him and his inheritance, but not for long. His friend Brain was going to make sure that the child wouldn't become a problem…
Soon enough the group arrived at a large laboratory Laxus seeing his brother's fear reassured him. "Don't worry little brother this place is run by Brain an important magic guy from the people grandpa is always fighting with," said Laxus to me but I wasn't buying it. I knew this place from the anime, Brain experimented on kids here and he was going to be one of them. Ivan wasted no time picking me up and rushing Laxus into the building we were greeted by Brain. Brain, the one behind so much pain in the series. Here I was face-to-face with him just a toddler at his mercy and I just hoped the spell kept me safe. We were led to a playroom for me to wait in while Brain looked at Laxus. I didn't trust the scenario, but had little choice being so young. After a while I began to heard Laxus scream I began to cry throwing a fit, as I did the door opened and a boy my age entered. He had black hair and was pale when my eyes connected to his I felt a sense of drowsiness. This was Midnight even as a child he had this effect on people. I need to not look at him his magic only worked as long as he made eye contact. Midnight curious walked closer wondering why I wasn't asleep yet most kids were out by now.
"Why aren't you asleep," Midnight asked in a ghostly voice. "I felt sleepy looking at you, so I looked away," I answered. "Daddy will get mad if you don't fall asleep," Midnight said scared. "I'm scared too," I whispered. "Don't worry I'll make your dream a good one if you just look at me," said Midnight. "Only if you promise to be my friend," I said knowing there was really no other positive outcome. "Ok now look," said Midnight as looked into his beautiful eyes so deep and full of fear. It made me feel bad what he would turn into in the future. I fell into a deep sleep but before I did, I got some notifications.

My dream was a pleasant one if a bit weird. I was in the playroom with Midnight I looked him in the eyes and fond I didn't feel sleepy. He giggled and lead me to where the toys were where we played with blocks and dolls it really was a weird experience. I awoke to intense pain as I felt something enter me from my forehead. I felt a surge of magic flow through my body as I fell asleep again. Soon enough I awoke again in the guild hall to the sound of Makarov and Ivan fighting. I got out of bed very weak but determine to heard. "How could you Ivan he's just 2 years old." "We needed to be sure he had magical potential this is one of the sure ways to see." "I don't care if he has magic or not, I love him and Laxus regardless whom you let them put a Lacrima into." "He showed no signs of having magic I need to ensure my bloodline." "Did you ever ask for his thoughts?" "That doesn't matter he'll thank me when I'm older." "What about Akira did you ask him and what did you try to put into him?" "Nothing your spell made sure of that." "If that's your true thought's I have no choice." "What old man." "Akira is going to be sent away to where you can't touch him." I felt sadness I was going to be sent away from Laxus and the guild. To be fair its not like I can do anything in my current shape but still I needed to get stronger. No matter what happens next I need to get stronger.

I reached up to feel my head again and felt the scar shift and looked again to see my Crystal Shard shift to a fairy tail guild Tattoo. Looking behind myself in the mirror I saw Mavis behind me smiling. I looked behind me to see no one I looked back into the mirror to see Mavis holding a finger to her mouth signaling me to be quiet. As I was smiling in the mirror, I heard a door open revealing Laxus who when he saw me ran down the stairs. He gave me a big hug and attracted the attention of the two men. Makarov smiled seeing the events hadn't changed either of us. Laxus still loved his brother and I was still an explorative wondering child. His thoughts were interrupted by Ivan who went up to Akira it took little to see why. Akira's Crystal Shard was gone replaced by the guilds mark any doubt of Akira's magic was mute. Mavis herself seemly has given Akira her blessing. Ivan frustrated simply left eyes filled with fury promising harm. Makarov needed to get his son to safety only one person could give his son that Yajima, Magic Council Member.
