Hello everyone! I'm not "new" to this site at all but I am new to publishing a story on here. I'm skeptical about making a NaMi story my very first one but I'll give it a try.

When you think of the word guild in the general since, I'm sure your mind becomes filled with an array of definitions. Those definitions would be correct, if you weren't talking about Fairy Tail. When you say or think the word guild along with Fairy Tail being the subject, you think family.

Magnolia, a city of casual everyday kind of people who just simply enjoy living under the sun and going about everyday life as it is. There's children playing with their friends, teenagers and adults all out having fun doing the things they all planned on doing today. Everyone's happy, well almost everyone that is.

"Natsuuuuu, you promised we would go fishing today!" Yelled a disappointed Happy

Natsu and happy on the other hand were resting under a tree in the shade discussing what should be done first today.

"I know I know Happy but I have to at least do one REAL job today, my pockets are so emptyyyy!" Replied a sulking Natsu.

"Awww man that's going to take foreverrrrr" Happy said now seeping into his own state of sulking.

"Don't be that way happy, with Erza, Gray and, Lucy along with us I'm sure it wouldn't take too long at all!" Natsu said now standing up stretching. "Now let's go Happy, FULL SPEED TO FAIRY TAIL!"Natsu yelled as he began running full speed.

"AYE SIR!" Yelled a newly energized Happy and flew off towards the guild.

Shortly later Natsu and Happy enter the guild hall. Upon entering the guild Natsu immediately noticed Erza sitting at a table enjoying the sweet elegant taste of strawberry cheesecake. He decided to walk over to her and sit down. Erza stopped eating and greeted Natsu.

"Hey Natsu, you here for a job today or just hanging out?" Asked Erza

"I'm here for a job right now but ill most likely will hang out here afterwards. I want the team to do a big one this time! Whataya say?" Natsu inquired Erza, who sighed and said

"Ok Natsu lets at least see what the rest of the team has to say first." Said Erza to witch Natsu sighed

"Alright.", Was all Natsu said as he put his head down on the table to begin a light nap until a thought crossed his mind. "Say Erza, where is gray and Lucy anyway? I figured I would at least see Lucy talking to Mira. Wait a second, where's Mirajane?" Natsu asked this while looking around for the usual sight of the bright silver haired waitress/bartender.

"Gray should be here shortly and Lucy as well, she's been working on her novel a lot more lately. Mirajane though is out on a supply run for the bar, she'll turn up eventually."Answered Erza. Natsu asked another question.

"Hey Erza, I want to ask you something about Mirajane."Natsu said to witch Erza listened more carefully now paying more attention.

"And just what might that be?"Asked Erza

"Have you ever done a job with Mirajane in the past?"Natsu asked this with a sincere expression. Erza tilted her head down while a grin graced her face.

"There was this one time."Erza answered. Natsu lifted his head in interest.

Flash Back

"WHAT DID YOU SAY TO ME THUNDER THIGHS!?" Yelled a jubilant Mirajane

"FIGHT ME YOU MIDRIFF BARING BASTARD!"Retorted Erza. The two mages were now face to face with each other prepared to square off. Not even for a moment did this go unnoticed by the guild.

"Well there they go again, another fight" Lisanna said as everyone one else just nodded in agreement.

Mirajane and Erza began their usual rivalry antics of destructive violence towards one another. This went on for a matter of 3 minutes. The reason behind it ending was due to master Makarov's entry to the main guild hall from his office. Usually he would just laughed along with the guild at their silly display of fighting, though today however was different.

"ERZA AND MIRAJANE STOP FIGHTING AND COME HERE!" Makarov yelled out. If anyone wasn't paying attention to the two of them then, they were now. Erza and Mirajane both walked up to Makarov.

"Erza, Mira I'm delighted to see you have such a strong rivalry going between you two. There's no doubt that you two are the strongest female mages in Fairy Tail." Makarov went on to say. "That's why I've decided to send the two of you on a job together" As Makarov finished, the guild exploded into an enormous amount gasp being made from everyone. Mirajane and Erza looked dumbfounded.

"B-B-But Master!" They both said in unison but then glared at each other.

"No Buts!"Makarov began "you two WILL complete the job and report back to me." Makarov said with a serious expression, but then softened and smiled merrily and said. "I know you two are more than capable of handling this." Makarov handed them the job request he had been saving for the two mages. Mirajane grabbed the paper and read it.

"This is almost an S class request." Mirajane stated.

"Let me see that."Erza grabbed the paper from Mirajane."Banraku Island? That's going to be a train and boat ride at least." Erza said with a sigh. Mirajane began walking towards the guild door to exit but stopped and said.

"I'll be waiting at the train station for you FATTY!" Mirajane said as she burst into laughter while exiting the guild. There were a few snickers coming from the guild hall. Erza reacted by sticking her sword into the ground, seething.

"I'm sure everything will be just fine!" Makarov said with a smile.

FLASH BACK END

"Wait, so where was I? I don't remember any of that happening."Natsu inquired.

"You don't remember because you were training that whole week. The job only lasted for 4 days Natsu, you were gone for 6."Erza informed him

"Huh? Oh yeah that's right, I was practicing a secrete dragon slayer art!" Natsu said while holding a blazing clenched fist in the air and had a foot on the table top.

"SIT DOWN!"Yelled Erza. Natsu wasted no time in doing what he was told.

"Anyway, as I was saying…"Erza resumed her story.

FLASH BACK

"So let me get this straight, there's a small group of dark guild rejects terrorizing villagers within the forest?" Mirajane asked while looking out of a train window.

"Pretty much, I'm guessing all we have to do is simply go in and rough'em up abit."Erza said while resting her head against her window.

"Well if it's that simple then there's no need for any pre planning. I'm taking a nap let me know when it's time to get off." Mirajane said drowsily. Erza just grunted and continued resting herself.

After countless hours of traveling, Mirajane and Erza finally reached Banraku Island. There were sounds of deferent animal species, a huge over growth of plant life, and salt like colored sand to grace the feet. There was a noticeable path through the trees to get to the main part of the village where most of the villagers resided. Mirajane saw this and bolted to towards the path. Erza called out to Mirajane to stop, which had little to no effect of her at all.

"Mirajane we shouldn't just rush into the forest, there could be booby traps!" Erza yelled.

"Go to hell clanky, I know what I'm doing!" Yelled Mirajane as she disappeared into the thick forest.

"AHHHH, WHAT THE HELL!?" Mirajane suddenly yelled out. Erza sighed and began sprinting towards Mirajane's location. When she got there, Erza stood frozen. Like Erza said there could be booby traps and sure enough Mirajane "found" one. Mirajane was hung upside down by a rope, dangling from a tall sturdy tree.

"DON'T JUST STAND THERE, CUT ME DOWN!" Mirajane yelled angrily.

"HA! Not until you say please and stop yelling!" Erza said as she prepared to start walking towards the village.

"You can forget it!" Snapped Mirajane. Erza begin to pick up her pace.

"Ok, meet me in the village then" Erza said while waving a single hand off to the side, emphasize how nonchalant she was being.

"BASTAAAAAARD!" Mirajane yelled out to Erza.

Here it is chapter 1, I hope to make longer chapters with much more detail as I progress. I hope the flow and feel to it isn't off or randomized. Please leave comments. CONSTRUCTIVE critisim is ok, but NO thrashing.
