Morning came and the two boys were heading towards the Chief's hut, they just got back to village last night from their quests and had to report to Roubaul on how they performed.
"Kurosaki, remind me, why did we wake up so early again?" Grimmjow asked. Grimmjow hates waking up so damn early in the morning while he doesn't sleep in, getting woken up is a headache.
"We have to report on how each of our quests went to Roubaul. Which we'll have to do after every one, apparently." Ichigo answers. "Also, when we're done and head back home, we are going to start training Wendy today, remember? We need as much time as possible, it's gonna be a busy day today." Ichigo adds, he then recalls Grimmjow wanting to talk to him about something last night. "By the way, what did you want to talk to me about? You mentioned something last night"
Grimmjow then looked at him confused and then remembered he did want to mention something, he was so tired he damn near forgot. "Oh yeah, I almost forgot, you know how we can use spiritual powers without being in soul forms?" He quizzes Ichigo. Ichigo looks at Grimmjow then back ahead of him.
"Actually I never really gave it much thought." Ichigo says smoothly. Grimmjow then looks at him perplexed by that. What does he mean by that does he not care or something? That's crucial information to know, at least that's what Grimmjow thinks.
"Don't you think it's a good idea to understand how our powers operate in this world?"
"Not really, our powers work and that's what matters, I had already assumed it was because of the new world we're in. Eventually, I accepted that some things are just unexplainable. This world is vastly different from ours and has different rules. Just look at Wendy and her magic, she was taught by a dragon, something that is a myth in our world." Ichigo states "Besides, I'd rather our bodies be always physical than to have to keep switching between this and our soul forms." he added
Grimmjow seemed to ponder for a he is overthinking it but, still that's important to know right? Ichigo is right to a degree, their powers work and that's better than them not working at all. "Yeah I suppose so." Grimmjow agrees, deciding to not give it much thought anymore. The two boys walked to the hut in silence for the rest of the way.
Wendy Marvell woke up with a yawn, she looked to her left and saw Carla still sleeping peacefully. Getting up carefully to not wake up her feline friend she then heads to the bathroom to perform her hygienic duties. After finishing she heads back to her room to take off her pajamas and puts her usual clothing on. "Okay, now to go wake up two of my favorite people in the whole world." She announced aloud as she went to wake up Ichigo and Grimmjow. She was excited for the news she was told she'd hear today, but when the girl checked their rooms she couldnt find them. 'They must be outside.' Wendy concluded, walking to the front door but before she reached it, the door began to open as both her brothers walked in. Seeing her brothers, the girl smiled. "Good morning." chirped Wendy
Hearing a voice the two checked the direction it came from and saw Wendy smiling at them innocently. Ichigo speaks up first, "Good morning, Wendy." He speaks to her kindly. The girl ran up to hug him and then Grimmjow.
"Morning, Wendy. " Grimmjow said in a pleasant tone. "The cat is still sleeping?" He asks to mention Carla. Wendy then nods as she backs away.
"Mhm, I didn't want to wake her." She states.
Grimmjow then chuckles "But you were gonna wake us up though huh?" he teased. Wendy then puffs her cheeks in response.
"That's because you guys said you were gonna tell me something today, I'm just excited." She whined cutely. She was really curious about what the big news was. "But where were you guys just now?' she questions the two.
"We had to report how our missions went to Roubaul and discussed other things." Ichigo answered as he walked and sat at the dining table. Grimmjow then sits at the table as well, motioning Wendy to do the same. The girl does what she's told and sits down. "So, remember when you told us long ago that you didn't really know how to fight." Ichigo quizzes, the girl then frowns a little but nods reluctantly.
"Yeah" she muttered, being reminded how weak she is. Her brothers are so strong and now they even have magic. She has very powerful magic and she feels as if it's wasted on someone like her. Grimmjow then snaps her out of her own head when he speaks up.
"Well that's gonna change starting today." He announced, causing the girl to look at him confused.
"How?" she asked with tilting her head.
"Because we want to train you, Wendy." Ichigo reveals making Wendy look at him with her mouth gaped but then smiled. She then looks at Grimmjow who nods agreeing with Ichigo.
"REALLY YOU WILL?! YES!" bursted Wendy as she stood up and started jumping up and down excitedly. Ichigo laughs at the girl.
"Yeah, we know you want to be a mage and so we're gonna support you by helping you get stronger if you'll let us. Grimmjow will teach you fighting techniques in hand-to-hand combat and I'll teach you sword techniques, granted I don't know many but I'll try my best." asserted the orange haired brother.
"Wendy, we want you to be able to protect yourself. Me and Ichigo won't always be around, so we're gonna make you strong. Strong to where you can protect yourself and others." Grimmjow added. To Wendy this is the best news ever, she will finally be able to stand with her brothers and fight with them one day.
"THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER!" Wendy cheered. "You guys are the best!". Hearing Wendy scream from the room Carla walks out the room to see what is going on.
"What's with the noise so early in the morning?" she questions with a yawn wondering what the commotion is about.
"Ichigo-nii and Grimm-nii are gonna train me so I can be strong." She told her feline companion.
"Oh, Well that's great Wendy, I'm very excited for you" She said supportive of the decision.
Wendy turned back to her brothers with a big grin "So when can we start?" She asked. The girl wants to waste no time and besides this will give her a reason to hang out with her brothers more, while the girl loved hanging out with Carla she still loves being with two boys.
"We can start today if you'd like to." Ichigo told her. "But I have to let you know that we are very serious about this. The magic world can be and is very dangerous, while we won't be brutal we will be tough on you." he warns her. Grimmjow then decides to put in his own piece
"Once we start, you cannot back out. No matter how much you might want to quit. I believe in strength and if you want to become stronger i will help but your resolve better not be half-baked." Grimmjow pressed. Wendy smiles with determination in her eyes.
"I-i won't quit. I want to become strong like you and Ichigo-nii. I want to be a powerful mage and fighter." She vowed with all the confidence she could muster. Grimmjow smirked, he knew there was a reason he got along with Wendy. This girl has spunk, behind that adorable exterior could be a powerful wizard. Hell, she even possesses magic that could slay dragons. With the right shaping, Wendy could be a force to be reckoned with.
"Well then if that's the case. We'll start with my classes today." He announced looking at Ichigo to see if Ichigo wanted to object.
"That's by me. I'm sure you're more recovered than I am. My body still feels a little weak so be my guest." Ichigo assures.
"Well let's go Wendy." Grimmjow declares getting up to walk out the hut.
"Okay!" She replies, today marks the start of her training and she can't wait to begin. She follows Grimmjow out the hut. Leaving Carla and Ichigo in the hut. The cat then looks at Ichigo.
"It's kind of you two to train her, Wendy talks to me all the time about wanting to be strong like the two of you. She really looks up to both of you." Carla states to Ichigo who looks at her.
"If Wendy wants to become a mage I won't get in her way. I've grown to love her like a sister since I met her in the forest that day." He expresses.
"Ah yes she told me about that." Carla recalls walking towards the door . "I'm gonna make sure he doesnt hurt the poor girl." Carla exits the hut, leaving Ichigo alone with his thoughts
These next few years are going to be full of intense training for him and the others. Currently his two goals are to train Wendy and get strong enough to destroy Nirvana. With him and Grimmjow getting magic the goal might be more obtainable, but after that what will he do next? What else is in store for him here? "Well, I guess I'll go watch Grimmjow and Wendy for a while." Ichigo says getting up and walking to the door. It's time to get started. He has a lot to do.
-X784-
In a blink of an eye, five years go by and the trio are better than ever. The boys have grown exponentially over the years. Gaining mastery over their magic to the point where they've almost perfected them. Roubaul even decided to make them S-class wizards through the magic council. Having money and being able to go to cities, Grimmjow and Ichigo decided that it was time for both of them to change their outfits.
Ichigo kept his hair the same length (So basically the style he had throughout the entire Bleach manga after the time skip not counting dangai Ichigo obviously.) He now wears a black sleeveless kimono similar to a shihakusho with a white short sleeved hoodie underneath, tucked into black harem pants that begin to hug his legs from mid-calf to his ankles with white socks with light-brown straw slippers and black sport wristbands. Around his waist he had a white kimono sash that had the knot tied to the left side of his waist with his shorter Zangetsu tucked in on the right side of the belt and had a skinny red strap around his chest that held the longer Zangetsu on his back.
Grimmjow kept his the same length as well and wore a black v-neck shirt under a white aviator bomber unzipped jacket with a black fur collar with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows and black cargo jeans with black leather thursday boots. He also had a cyan belt around his waist holding Pantera on his left side and his right hand having a fingerless biker glove.
Though those two aren't the only to have grown and changed. Thanks to the training of her brothers, Wendy has become a very skilled fighter in her own right. She has become more confident in her fighting capabilities but to Grimmjow's dismay she still is a little timid and shy. Even before she finished her training, She was able to accompany them and even went to some of her own quests as training, though her brothers stayed close just in case. The boys never got in Wendy's way and allowed her to flourish. She even made a name for herself as well: The Sky Maiden. Something that made them very proud of her.
She even changed her wardrobe now wearing a cropped black denim jacket with a pale pink sleeveless button up shirt with a white bow tie around her collar that was tucked into a black waist high pleated skirt that had a white belt. She had black thigh high compression socks with white flat heel strap sandals. Her hair was in a single high ponytail with a long bang on each side of her face. (Imagine her twin pigtail hairstyle but only one ponytail.)
Currently the trio were in their home Wendy was currently sitting at the dining table with Carla who was sitting on the table, today was the last day of her training and her brothers said they had a surprise for her. They were in the back doing something or getting something.
"What do you think the surprise could be?" Wendy asked Carla. The cat shrugged in response.
"I dont have the slightest idea, maybe it's a final training regimen they've set up" Carla guessed. Wendy sighed she hoped not they had put her through the ringer these last couple days.
"Well if that's the case I hope it's not too bad."
Coming for the back of the hut, Ichigo walked to the front but with the rectangular box in his hands with Grimmjow right behind him. Wendy remembers asking about years ago, she had almost forgotten all about it. Ichigo then sets the box down and turns it towards Wendy. He then clears his throat before beginning.
"Wendy, to start we would like to congratulate you on finally completing all your training but we have one more thing for you to do. Grimmjow and I are very impressed by the growth and determination you showed these last 5 years." Ichigo declared.
"You've done well, Wendy" Grimmjow tells the girl with a genuine smile, something that he has never done, ever. This made the girl smile deeply. That's the first time Grimmjow has ever smiled at her, now she is really interested. What in the world is in that box? "So for your final test we want you to accept this gift."
"So Wendy, open the box." Ichigo told her. Wendy looked at the box and slowly opened it doing what she was told but when she opened it she and Carla couldn't believe what they saw. It was a sheathed katana, a beautiful one at that and it's for her? Wendy then picks it up and holds it in her hands. It was a little heavy but it felt right to hold. She then looks at her brothers and they look at her with proud faces. She began to tear up. "We knew you could do it from the very beginning which is why we bought this long ago. I am very proud of you." Ichigo expresses this to the girl.
"You have become strong and I can't wait to see how far you'll go." Grimmjow praises. "And I won't get upset if you cry this time." As soon as he said that, Wendy burst into tears, put the sword down on the table and got up to hug her brothers who hugged her back, even Grimmjow the girl finally won his heart.
"I love you guys. It's perfect" She professed sobbing, this was the best gift ever in more ways than just getting a sword, it meant that her brothers always believed in her. Even when she didn't believe in herself. Carla smiles at the three, noticing the cat looking, Ichigo grabs the feline and pulls her in the hug. She's a part of the family too. To which Carla smiles and accepts it. They sat there for a few extra seconds before..
"Alright that's enough of the hugging." Grimmjow said abruptly, making the group stop. That was enough of the physical touch, he didn't want them to think he's gone soft. Ichigo snickers in response, making Grimmjow look at him.
"Yup, big tough Grimmjow doesn't do hugs." Ichigo teased, making the girls laugh. Grimmjow's eyebrow twitched.
"Shut the fuck up, Ichigo." Grimmjow grumbled.
"Touchy, did I hit a nerve?" Ichigo said, chuckling.
Wendy walks away and grabs the katana with a smile; she really can't believe that this is her sword. The girl then puts it through her belt on her left side. Ichigo started to walk towards his room.
"Well I have to go pack, Roubaul asked me to go to a Magic council meeting for him. So I'm gonna be gone for a day or two." Ichigo announces, Wendy hearing this, looks at her brother.
"Can I go with you, please?" she pleaded.
"Sure, I don't mind. Go ahead and pack." He approves as continues to his room.
"Yay!" Wendy beamed running to her room as well. She loves traveling with her brothers. Carla then looks at Grimmjow.
"Do you have any plans, Grimmjow?" She questioned him making the man look
"Yeah, I have a new quest that I have to get ready for." He responded as he walked to his room to back as well.
"Hmm, may I ask what it is?" She said following him, she had to head that way to get to Wendy's room knowing the girl would want Carla to accompany her and Ichigo.
"I have to escort someone across the snowy mountains. Apparently there is no train that can take them. It's a specific quest, I have to meet him today at a certain time." Grimmjow told her.
Carla then raises a brow, "Really? Why would you choose that?" Grimmjow usually takes a quest that involves fights. Escorting someone isn't something you'd expect from him.
"There wasn't any quest that had hunting or fighting that was all I saw and I was bored so I just chose it. Besides, there are monsters in the mountains" he shrugged, heading in his room.
"Well, good luck." She says entering Wendy's room.
-Hours later-
Ichigo, Wendy and Carla were sitting in the train waiting to arrive at their destination. Wendy had fallen asleep and was currently resting her head on Ichigo's lap. The boy was looking out the window just watching everything go by as the train moved forward. "Why didn't Grimmjow accompany us?" Carla asked, breaking the silence.
"He said that the location he had to go to was in a different direction so he had to get on another train." He answers looking at her.
"Ah I see…" She pauses for a second "I think you two are doing a fine job by the way." Carla said to Ichigo which made him confused.
"What do you mean?" He questions, what is she talking about?
"With Wendy, I can tell that the girl loves and trusts you two dearly. Taking care of a child as children seems rather difficult, to me at least." Carla tells him, the boys only met her when they were children, but they take care of her like they're adults. Ichigo more than Grimmjow though, It's like they've been alive longer than they're actual age. "She is becoming a fine young lady." Carla states looking at the girl is sleeping peacefully by her brother. Ichigo looked at her with a somewhat shocked expression. He doesn't have the slightest clue on raising a child and to be honest, he's been winging it, but to hear that he's doing a good job. Well, it's nice.
"Thank you." He says genuinely.
"So, do you have any idea what this meeting is for?" Carla inquired.
"Roubaul mentioned that it was just to do a yearly report on our guild. So I have to talk to them about our quests and how the guild has been performing." Ichigo informed her.
"Even I have to admit that sounds quite boring." Carla giggled, "Is there a reason he couldn't go?"
"He told me that he didn't want to go and that he would appreciate it if I went."
"Really? To me it sounds like he just put his responsibilities on you" Carla sweatdropped.
"Basically, but I don't mind. It gives me a reason to leave the village for a bit. It can be boring being there all the time, that's why I don't mind Wendy tagging along. I know she gets bored there too." Ichigo states.
"I can understand that. That's very considerate of you" She replied at the end of the conversation the rest of the ride was silent and peaceful.
Grimmjow had arrived at the town. Well, if you could call it that. This place looked like a dump, he was supposed to meet his employer here? Looking back at his quest sheet. It says that he would meet the man at a bar. is his name, he is an old man with purple eyes and brown hair from what the quest states. Walking around, he then sees a building that had a sign with a picture of a mug with beer in it. Knowing that's the place he then walks in, Grimmjow then hears cheers looking to where the noise is coming from, he sees a crowd of people gathered around what seems to be a table.
"The hell?" Curiously he makes his way through the crowd to see a man with his head down on the table with bottles of liquor and shot glasses around him and in front of him a woman with an equal amount of glasses.
"O-okaay i…quit, you…win." That man says sluggishly, slowly passing out. The woman then stood up and raised her hands victoriously.
"And another one bites the dust! Haha sucker guess you gotta pay for all the booze." She says proudly, Grimmjow no longer caring about this tries to head out of the crowd. "Anyone else wants to try and take me down?" She questions looking at the crowd trying to find someone to get free drinks out of. Her eyes wander before they land on Grimmjow 'Oooh he's cute.' she thought. "Hey there hot stuff wanna go for a round?" She asks Grimmjow.
Feeling eyes on him, Grimmjow turns around to look at the woman, she seems around his age. She was tall and slim with tanned-skin, she had brown eyes and long thick and wavy hair with two strands that framed her face. She had on a blue bikini top with brown pants with high heel sandals, but what Grimmjow really got his attention is that she had a stamp of the Fairy Tail guild on her abdomen.
"No." Grimmjow rejected the offer walking away out of the crowd, he's not here for drinks. Grimmjow continued on looking for the man he couldn't find him. Guessing that he got there before the man, he then sat at a table by himself and decided to wait for the man.
A couple minutes had passed and the bar got quiet. The crowd from earlier separated and some of the people in the bar went back to their tables and some left, Grimmjow was leaning back in the chair staring at the ceiling but he heard a chair in front of him move. He looks to see the woman from earlier sitting down staring at him. "Why are you sitting here?" He questions the woman. What does she want? He is not in the mood for this right now.
"I was gonna ask you the same thing, handsome. My name's Cana Alberona. What's yours?" She asks in a flirty tone.
"Not interested." Grimmjow snorted. Cana then chuckles at him.
"Oh you're a snappy one. When a lady introduces herself to the gentlemen he's supposed to do the same." Cana bantered, crossing her arms under her chest which made her cleavage stick out more. "You wouldn't be rude to a lady now would you?" She pouted playfully.
"Well good thing I'm no gentleman and actually, I would. Go away." Grimmjow sassed.
"Come on, you already turned down my offer to drink. Tell you what, give me your name and I'll get outta your hair." She cajoled looking at the boy. Grimmjow exhaled deeply, so she'll go away as long as he tells the woman his name? Fine.
"It's Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez, now go." He reveals, Cana then smiles, she got him.
"Nope." She says quickly. This makes Grimmjow sigh in annoyance. "Wow, I can't believe you fell for that." She chuckled. At first she was gonna try and get free drinks from him but now she is interested, usually guys would swoon over her by now. He's different. "So.." She began as she put her elbows on the table and rested head in her hands. "What are you doing here all alone, Grimmjow?" She asked.
Grimmjow stares at the woman. 'She just doesn't know when to quit.' He grumbled. Finally deciding to humor Cana seeing that she won't go away. "I'm here for a quest." He answers
"So you are a mage. I had assumed so, you know the sword and all." She pointed out. "What guild are you from?"
"The Cait Shelter guild." he informed her
This made Cana raise a brow, she wasn't expecting that answer. "Cait Shelter huh? I heard it's a really secluded guild, not that many members."
"Yeah, I guess so."
"You know, I'm a mage too." She announced.
"I'm aware, I saw your mark earlier. You're from that Fairy tail guild" He tells the woman.
"So, you were checking me out? You liked what you saw?" Cana winked.
"You're walking around practically topless, anyone with eyes would notice." Grimmjow noted
"Still your eyes wandered and you didn't deny if you liked what you saw." She teased. "What's the quest you're here for?" She asked. Grimmjow then pulls out his quest paper and hands it to her. Cana stares at the paper with a blank expression. "Why don't you look at that?" She mumbles handing back the paper and then digs in her purse and pulls a folded paper. "Seems we're here for the same reason." She reveals the paper to Grimmjow showing that it's the exact same quest as him.
Grimmjow's eyes widened a bit, They're here for the same quest? That's just great. So what now? Are they gonna make the man choose one of them? Where is the guy? As if on cue, an old man fitting the description on the quest paper walks into the bar. Grimmjow looked to see who entered, saw the man walk to a table in the corner of the place. "The man of the hour." Grimmjow says sarcastically. Cana turns to look at who Grimmjow was talking about and sees the man. He looks like the description so more than likely it's the employer.
"So I guess we have to go ask him which one of us he wants to hire?" She suggested. One of them is going to have to head back home. Which kind of sucks, she was enjoying messing with the ex-espada, she was just starting to get a conversation out of him.
"Well, let's just get it over with." Grimmjow said
The two get up and head over to the man. Seeing two people over him the man looks up. "May I help you?" he questioned. Grimmjow then holds up the paper.
"Are you Castro?"
"You two must be mages. Yes, I am Charles Castro." Charles introduces himself. "I take it you are here for the quest?"
"Yeah we are, However, we are from different guilds so you're gonna have to pick one of us to hire." Cana declared to the man.
"Ah you're not from the same guild?…Well I can hire the both of you. I have the money for it and the more wizards there are, the safer I'd feel." He stated.
"You sure? The reward is 300,000 jewels. You'll have to pay us both." Cana replied the man then nodded in return.
"600,000 jewels is not a problem for me. I just need to get across this mountain. I have a Wife and daughter to get back to, I don't care about the money." he expressed. Cana looked at Grimmjow
"Are you okay with this?" She asked him.
"I don't really care. It's fine as long as I have something to do." Grimmjow answered
"I guess it's all good then." Cana told Charles.
"Splendid, then we'll head out immediately." The old man announced.
"Okay, let me go grab my things really quick" Cana said walking away. Charles then looked at Grimmjow
"Didn't think you two were in separate guilds, i thought you look like a mage couple." The old man says honestly.
"Well we're not, I just met her." Grimmjow clarified. The old man chuckled
"Either way, You have to admit she's quite beautiful." He says.
"Aren't you married? your wife wouldn't like to hear about you looking at other women." Grimmjow said to the man, is Castro perverted or something?
"Ha, I'm too old to do that, but she is a very pretty young woman. That's just an observation, wouldn't you agree with that?" He asks. "Come on we're men I know you've looked at her at the very least."
Grimmjow's eye twitched, why is the old man going on about this, but, If Grimmjow was being honest…"I'm not the kind of man to check out women, but I will say she is…something, I guess." Grimmjow said not really caring for the conversation. Cana then walks back with a brown jacket on and a backpack.
"Okay, well I'm ready to go." Cana says. The trio then head out to head to the mountains.
-Fiore Branch Magic Council Headquarters–
Ichigo and the two girls were walking through the Magic were heading to the room where Ichigo is supposed to report for the guild. "This place is so pretty" Wendy observed, Carla nodded she had to admit this building is put together quite well.
"Yes it is, I wouldn't expect less from the government." Carla agrees. "So Ichigo, how long is this meeting going to be?"
"Not long, I'm just going to be doing a lot of boring talk like discussing any property damage our guild caused during quests and other things."
"Property damage? Who could've-...nevermind, Grimmjow." Carla deadpanned already knowing who the culprit is. Wendy then giggled
"Leave something like that to Grimm-nii" Wendy chimed in.
"It's not as bad as you'd think, He learned self-control to a degree." Ichigo states. Walking a little further down the hallway, Ichigo then stops in front of two big doors which make the girls stop in their tracks as well. "This is it" opens the door to see a court-like room with two levels with the higher level having multiple chairs which must be for the chairman. The lower level had a small rectangular area marked by balustrade railings with an opening in the back that looks like where someone would stand if they were on trial. Walking into the room the trio notices there is no one else in there.
"Uh, Ichigo-nii, is the right room? There is no one here." Wendy points out.
"Roubaul told me this is what the room looks like. I'm pretty sure this is the right room." Ichigo assures the girl.
"Perhaps we are late?" Carla guessed. Ichigo then shakes his head.
"No, I made sure to be here on time." Ichigo stated.
"Ugh, why did I have to get stuck with this? There are more important things going on right now." A feminine-voice said in aggravation, The trio then looked up at the second floor with the chairs to see a woman walking into frame. She looked about Ichigo's age, she had pale skin with dark purple hair and red eyes, she was wearing a white kimono that only had a left sleeve. The woman then notices the trio "Oh you're here early, that's good. That will make this go by quicker." She then sat down in the chair directly in the middle. "My name is Ultear Milkovich." She began "I will be the one overseeing your guild's reports. Which one of you will I be talking to? Whoever it is please walk into the marked area. The others please sit in the in the stands" She commands looking at the trio.
Wendy and Carla just remain quiet and head to their seats, as Ichigo walks forward and stands in the small area.
"Please state your name" She requested.
"My name is Ichigo Kurosaki, I'm here on behalf of the Cait Shelter guild." Ichigo introduces himself. Ultear then looks at a file directly in front of her and picks it up. She then began to read through it.
"Ah, yes. The Cait Shelter Guild. Says here your guild is one of the most non-problematic. Which is good, means there won't be alot for us to talk about." She says reading the file. She then pauses. "It says here that you, Ichigo, took down Dante Gatson the Bandit king at the age of 14. Impressive. Did you know that he was a S-class wizard before he went rogue?" Ultear quizzed him. Ichigo then looked at her with a perplexed look.
"What does that have to do with anything? Thought we were here to talk about the guild not me"
"We are, but these meetings are sooo boring. Sitting here talking about reports can rot the brain." Ultear says with a slight tone of dread in her voice. "So let's talk about other things. Since your guild barely causes any problems besides a little casualty damage which is pretty miniscule compared to other guilds such as Fairy Tail, there is really nothing else to talk about." She explained
"Ah okay I see" Ichigo responds, understanding Ultear.
"It also says that you possess Shadow-God slayer magic. Wow, such a powerful lost magic. Strangely, it states that you stopped Dante from stealing the Shadow-god lacrima and afterwards you started using that same exact magic." She says looking at him "One can only assume that you must have received the lacrima as a gift for saving the girl, who is stated to be the employer's daughter. Which means you defeated an S-class wizard with no magic. Not bad, Ichigo." She praises sitting the file down.'Hmm, this guy is interesting, maybe just maybe...' She began scheming in her head "Look, I don't want to be here longer than I have to and I don't think You want to be here either" She expressed to him. "Wait outside the room with your group for me and don't leave." She demanded.
Ichigo complies by motioning Wendy and Carla to follow him out of the room to which the girls do. When they fully leave the room, Ultear then pulls out a lacrima ball and channels it with magic. Suddenly an elderly man with a eyepatch appears on the lacrima.
"Master Hades, I think I've found something interesting." She says with a sinister smirk.
Minutes go by as the Cait Shelter guild members stood patiently outside the door. "What do you think she made us stay outside for?" Wendy asked the other two. "Thanks to my heightened hearing I can hear her talking but I can't make out what she is saying." Wendy stated
"I don't know, I just hope It isn't something bad." Carla answers with uncertainty
"Probably not, she said our guild doesn't have any bad reports, all we can do is wait until she tells us. She's probably reporting to her higher ups or something." Ichigo theorizes.
"Wait, I think she's done." Wendy stated right after she finished the door opened and Ultear stepped out with a smile.
"Thank you for waiting." Ultear speaks to them. "So you guys are fine, there is nothing that needs to be done about your guild. Just try to keep the damage under control, even though it isn't bad. Your dismissed" She informs
"Uh okay, thanks." Ichigo responds, thinking that he was allowed to leave and starts to walk away with Wendy and Carla following.
"Wait!" Ultear spoke at a higher volume getting their attention. Ichigo looks at her confused. He thought that they were done but Ultear continued. "I-i was wondering if you would like to have dinner with me tomorrow? I would like to get to know you more if that's okay?" She asked Ichigo, looking away with a blush apparent on her face. Ichigo is taken back by the question.
Wendy then looked at Ichigo with a surprised look, is Ultear asking her brother on a date? 'Woah, Ichigo-nii just got asked out.' Wendy thinks to herself looking at Ultear. 'She is really pretty…and that's really bold asking right off the bat.' The girl thought most people would wait for the other person to be alone. Carla then raises a brow looking at Ultear.
"I um-" Ichigo started not knowing what to say. He's never been asked on a date before.
"He'll go!" Wendy said, answering for him. Ichigo then looks at Wendy with a shocked face.
"You will?" Ultear asked, looking at him with a smile.
Wendy then leans in and puts her hand by her mouth "Ichigo-nii, It could be fun and you never know it could work out, besides it's not like we have something waiting for us back home." She whispered, making sure Ultear couldn't hear.
"But, Wendy I-' He whispered back, beginning to protest but Wendy interrupted him.
"Come on live a little Ichigo-nii, just go or I'll tell Grimm-nii you chickened out from a date." Wendy threatened. Ichigo then looks at her with a defeated face, while he doesn't really care if she tells Grimmjow. He just doesn't feel like hearing him hold it over his head and Wendy is right he's got nothing else to do.
Ichigo then looks back at Ultear. "Sure why not? It could be fun." He then looks at Wendy who gives him a look of approval and a thumbs up. He can't believe his little sister just became his wingman.
"Really? Great! Let's discuss the arrangements." Ultear said with excitement in her voice clasping her hands together.
Wendy then picks up Carla and holds the feline in her arms "W-wendy what you-" Carla says startled by the action.
"Not now Carla, We gotta go. Big brother has business to handle." Wendy whispered "See ya, Ichigo-nii. We're gonna go to our room we got earlier." She announces to her brother leaving in a quick manner. Leaving Ichigo alone with Ultear to discuss their date.
-To Grimmjow-
Cana, Grimmjow and Charles were treading through the mountains they've been out there for a good while. It was freezing cold at least for Cana and Charles who were both shivering a bit. 'Shit, I should've brought more clothes' Cana thinks as she looks at Grimmjow who was just fine, he didn't even look cold but he rather looked like he was in deep thought. 'Whats wrong with him?'
The hike wasn't even bad, it was rather peaceful, still though Grimmjow couldn't shake some unnerving feeling he had, like he was being preyed on by something. He used to have similar feelings back in Hueco Mundo when he would travel in that realm, something is definitely watching them, he's sure of it.
"It should be a little ways further. Just around this mountain." reveals to the duo. Out of nowhere an animal-like screech was heard above them. Looking up, the group saw something swooping down at them at an extremely high speed. Grimmjow dodges to the right and Cana quickly grabs Charles and jumps out of the way to the left just in time as a giant white blur sped past them.
"Did you see what the hell that was?" Cana asked, looking at Grimmjow picking herself and the old man up.
"No, but whatever it was, it was big." Grimmjow says, looking for the creature. With a loud boom a creature lands in front of the group revealing a very large white draconian creature with massive wings, razor sharp teeth and black talons. "The hell is that?!" Grimmjow questions aloud in shock.
"It's a Blizzardvern, they live up in these mountains, they are actually herbivores but, they are highly territorial and very dangerous!" Castro shouts.
"I thought you said you knew where you were going!" Cana says to man
"I do! I made sure to avoid their nests but this one must be separated from the pack; they usually travel in groups of 4 or more." He informs
"RAAAHHHH" the creature roars, flapping its wings creating powerful gusts of wind. Pushing them back a little. The Wyvern then rushes towards Cana and Mr. Castro only to be kicked heavily in the face by Grimmjow, sending it flying.
"Well whatever it is, it's going down." Grimmjow stated confidently.
Picking itself back up and recovering from the attack, the creature looks at Grimmjow and snarls which makes the blue haired wizard smirk. "Bring it." Grimmjow said, provoking the creature. The creature starts rushing at him, but three cards come out of nowhere, hit the wyvern and explode on impact causing it to be pushed back. Grimmjow looked in the direction the cards came from to see Cana holding cards in her hand. 'Card magic?' Grimmjow points out looking at the girl.
Cana notices him, she then winks and looks back at the Blizzardvern. "I don't appreciate you attacking me earlier." Cana spoke to the wyvern. The creature gets back up and jumps back in the air above them.
It then begins to inhale then spits out a beam of ice magic at the group. 'Shit.' Cana curses, she didn't expect it to have ice magic.
Grimmjow quickly then gets in front of her and inhales deeply. "Lightning Devil-Slayer Magic:.." Grimmjow starts.
'Slayer magic?! Like Natsu? I've never heard of a devil kind though' Cana thinks surprised.
"Lightning Devil's Rage!" Grimmjow bellows leaning forward, opening his mouth fully as he shoots a giant beam of dark-blue lightning from his mouth that clashes with the wyverns' ice magic and easily overpowers it. His lightning blast then hits the creature knocking it out of the sky causing the wyvern to crash into the ground. "Tch, that's all it took?" Grimmjow says in disappointment but the creature slowly rises and Grimmjow smirks. "This thing is relentless." but to his surprise it flies away rather quickly, leaving him dumbfounded. "What?"
"Oh thank Heavens, you managed to scare it off." Castro says in relief. Cana looks at Grimmjow
"Devil-slayer magic? That's pretty amazing." Cana says impressed. "Thanks for the save by the way."
"Hmm? Oh yeah." Grimmjow replies.
"Well shall we continue on?" The old man questions looking at the two. "We should try to get somewhere warm."
"Yeah obviously I don't want to stay in this cold anymore." imparted Cana wanted to get out of the mountains.
"You do realize we'll have to head back this way to get home right?" Grimmjow sweatdropped. Cana then fake gasped and held her face in a shock manner
"Oh no." She says "I'll have to head back this way where the big scary wyverns are? I hope they'll be a big strong man to protect me, hint hint." She says playfully looking at Grimmjow. She was fully aware of that fact but she felt like messing with the other wizard.
Grimmjow notices the obvious fake tone in her voice and rolls his eyes "Whatever."
The trio continues on for the rest of the journey with no obstacles.
Thus ends another chapter, I hope you guys liked it! I am finally starting the story on the main continuity of Fairy Tail. These last three chapters (Including this one.)
