The Phoenix of Fairy tail
The world, a paradise for the livings due to its features; I mean where else can you find a place for you to live and be with your friends and family? Whether all living beings realize it or not it's in deeply buried within their instincts a strong need to protect it. It's a need that one must do and will do anything for it. But for all great instincts such as this, there will be conflict as to who it truly belongs. Humans typically being blind with greed, desire , pride and thirst for power. With this in thought we can always conclude that there will be a struggle among them. Which is the reason right now that a woman probably in her early 30s is holding an infant across the battle field, which also explains why she is covered with bruises and cuts, her long wavy blue hair covered her face hiding deep green eyes, the armour she wore torn and shred akin to a piece of rag, on her back there's a deep wound as a result of being stabbed by a bastard sword.
She rested herself on a big tree refusing to give up to her fatal wounds, at least not until she can find someone to look after her child, little did she know that the one who will look after her child would not be a someone.
".. *pant* .. *pant*. dont worry dear we have gone out of that cataclysm. "She smiled to the child she was carrying, the child looked up toward her with a grin on his face the child seemingly unaware about the fact that his birth mother is dying. "He.. He.. You are just like your goof headed father with that stupid grin of his… *pant*... *pant* but… That is why I love that smile so much…" to her these smiles and perhaps grins are her heaven. The requip mage slowly burst to tears "I'm sorry… "She said between sobs
"I really wished I can be there for you … I love... You… "She muttered as she slowly kissed her child's forehead with her warm lips that were slowly starting to lose their warmth."At least I have to save you" she said after recomposing herself. She gathered her courage and rose to her feet, gently wrapping her arms around the 1 year old boy with the same deep green eyes.
"Please God at least save him… I can't rest in peace if he does not live… I can't afford to lose someone dear to me for the second time" her eyelids once again brimming with tears as memories rose up to her mind.
She carried her child and walked to the east of Fiore. Unknown to her she is being watched the entire time. Her eyes started to blur as she no longer could feel her legs, as she stumbled to the ground harshly she quickly spun her body backward and wrapped her arms around her child in a protective manner " Ugh... Is this it? Is this the end? "She looked to her child" Guess I'm a bad mother huh? I can't even protect you from death? "It sounded as it was a normal thing to be able to protect someone from death. Suddenly the ground started to shake and the wind began to roar as a figure descended from the sky.
Unknown POV
He stood there watching as humans killed and annihilated one another, he stood there and continued watching FROM THE SKY!?
"Typical humans." he snickered "why must you kill each other if you can live with each other and avoid this foolishness?"
He watched as a woman gracefully cut through the army of the enemy as if she was dancing, but what exactly caught his attention was not the woman who was formerly the 8th wizard saint but rather a small 'package' that she was carrying in a protective manner as if it held a precious thing that she would die protecting it "Hmm.. She's dying, from what I can tell she suffers from a deadly disease. There's no way to save her now." his conclusion becoming reality as the requip mage was impaled by a sword nearly as large as a human, but once again he watched in amusement as he saw the woman threw the 'package' high up her head as she felt something impaling through her from the back,
He watched as she then gathered her magic in her sword and released it with full blown shockwave sending all around her to scatter around the battlefield with the bodies of her foes blown away as if they were a bunch of dried leaves,before moving as quick as her injured body could to catch the package.
"Quite impressive for a human to be able to master that kind of destructive magic" he complimented with amusement. He continued to watch the requip mage made her way away from the battlefield. She then after some time rest herself on a tree.
Upon closer inspection he noticed that the 'package' is actually human child probably about one year old 'how didn't I notice that it's a human child? Perhaps it's true I'm getting old?Nah I just didn't get enough sleep' he continued with his inner thoughts as if it wasn't the truth that he is a 1000 years old mythical being refusing to think he is after all 'OLD' .
It was then that he remembered his 'friend', a dragon with some self -admiring problems 'hmmph that kid probably will laugh his ass off if he ever learnt about this' he turned his attention back toward the human 'little family', it seemed like that the woman's eyes were brimming with tears as she slowly planted a kiss on the child's forehead.
'Damnit! Don't cry now. Hey! You get back in there' he mentally scolded his own...Tears? As they threatened to shed from his eyes 'Poor child he will be alone not long after this' It was then that thought it click in his mind 'hmmp.. Guess like that child will be like me ' he reminded himself as he is the only one of his kind that is left.
It was like a little bit of deja vu' to him as he remembered the life of complete solitude in the first 'few hundred years' from his memory.
His heart felt as if broken when the woman stumbled to the ground harshly, but still she tried to protect her child. 'Maybe The love between humans is still there deep within their barbaric heart' it wasn't every day that he saw a love between the species that he saw as only barbaric for so long, after all he only went out to see the world every once in every hundred years.
'I guess I can't help it then ' he thought as he slowly descended to reveal himself to the human but of course that was because he himself was about to burst into tears of watching this 'drama'
3rd POV
She was currently laying down holding her child when she felt a sudden gust of wind so strong that almost sounded that the wind itself was roaring telling her something. She gathered what was left of her strength and pushed herself of the ground while gently holding her child. Her vision was blurry and she couldn't see a thing, then slowly her eyes began to clear it out for her. She stiffened in horror and at the same time amazement as she saw it.
A massive birdlike creature almost the size of 4-stories house but what caught her attention was the golden bluish flames licking around its body as if they are dancing, its wings were large and she felt as if with one swipe it could throw of her body 50-feet away with no effort. Her horror began to sink when she felt it. Its flames warming her up in a protective manner and she could slowly feel her strength rising up, but be that as it may it was only for a while as she knew she will die anyway. But what shocked her the most was when that 'bird' began to talk.
"Do not fear mortal, I'm Axel the last phoenix in Earthland. I do not wish to harm you. I've been watching you for quite a while. Yes, I know about your current condition which is you're dying" The great phoenix said with pride and a hint of sadness in his voice.
After gathering her thoughts for quite a while the bluenette finally found her voice " W- what did you want from me? And how can I know that you...Really meant what you said?"
"Maybe the fact that you're still alive right now might put some sense into you. But I understand you're just worried about that child's safety" Axel said almost in annoying tone
"I'm sorry… My name is Zea… Zea Winchester… I-I've just never seen one being such as yourself... it is truly my honor to be able to meet you" Zea spoke after realizing she was in no danger which was likely the same toward her child.
"Greetings Zea Winchester. I'm Axel the last phoenix in Earthland" by this moment Zea was nonetheless sweat dropping and she may have started laughing if not for the case she was slowly dying "My flames is giving you the strength to keep breathing until now.. But I'm sorry even I can't cure death" Axel explain between sorrow.
"I- I understand. Forgive me if I'm rude but what's exactly the purpose of you being here right now? I'm sure such a majestic creature such as yourself does not exactly like us humans and the fact that you've been watching me is really bothering me too, why would you do that?" Zea asked seeking for answers
"Hahaha. You humans really are full of questions, are you not? And why do you simply make a conclusion that I dislike human? "Axel snickered .and then he continues "But then again you are not truly wrong either. It's true I dislike most of your species." Zea suddenly took a step back without her even realizing it.
Axel watching this began to continue "But just like others I truly appreciate life, I can't just leave one these lives that deserve saving"
Zea's eyes widened in realization but she still asked out of curiosity "Wha… What do you exactly mean by that?" Axel began to chuckle "It is what I meant. I wish to save that child of yours because his destiny does not have to end here with you by dying with you. Put it this way, I feel that this child is a child that will change the world ".'At least I hope so' Axel mentally added.
Zea having felt like a burden was pushed from her as she felt a gentle warm light touch her heart and began to shed tears of happiness and sorrow at the same time " I- I can't think of anything to say.. B- but thank you" she bowed her head as her sleeping child began to stir from his sleep.
"Thank you very much I can't think of anything I can do to ever repay you" Axel hearing this mentally thought to himself ' How can you even repay me if you're going to die anyway?' before he answered her "No need to worry I swear upon the oath of the phoenix that I will raise him and teach him my magic ' the art of the phoenix' and I will love him as my own kind" with that being said the wall of flames started to fade away.
"Wa.. Wait let me say something to him." Axel only nodded in agreement. Zea look at her child whose deep green eyes with a little bit of black stared back at hers "Arthur... I'm sorry for I cannot be with you to nurse you to be your mother and to be your teacher. There is so much I want to teach you".
She began to sob with tears brimming her eyes "How I wish to see you grow up to feed you, and of course to nag you if you ever be naughty " least need to say Axel sweat-dropped at this statement " But know this I will always love you an I will watch you from afar from the tint of heaven I will always wish the best for you. Grow strong and healthy. "
"And don't ever become a pervert like your uncle sam" a smile came across her lips "Become a man like your father. Protect those that you love fight for what's right. Let your heart lead your life. I love you Arthur... Winchester" she managed to plant a kiss on Arthur's forehead before her body was bathed in light, a flame to be exact a golden bluish flame " Listen well to Axel He will be your parent".
She reached for her necklace which was azure blue colored, in a diamond like shape which elongated at the bottom with a black string attached to it and slowly placed it on her child, she turned her head to Axel.
Axel spoke "It looks like your time is almost up. Very well I will treat him as my own so as you wish" Zea nodded her head and before fading away she muttered a small 'thank you'
After Zea was gone Axel turned his head toward Arthur " Now then little one lets head home " he carefully created an magic fire arm and gently wrapped it around the child then he change it nature as to not burn the child and after that he change his own flame nature and placed Arthur on the back of his body with the magical arm still wrapped around the body. Satisfied with it he flapped his wings and disappeared towards the sky in golden bluish flames
