Prologue
High above the ground upon which people of the fantastical realm of Gensokyo walked, on a rocky and uneven, yet still covered in vibrant plant life land of Bhava Agra, or simply Heaven, a lone figure stood.
It was a girl with long blue hair who wore a white button-up blouse with a red bow at the collar and a blue dress with a light blue bow on the back and brown lace-up boots. She had an apron with cloud patterns on her dress with a rainbow-patterned shard link around it, and on her head was a black hat decorated with two peaches and leaves.
She closed her dark red eyes and slowly raised her hands. In them, a small, thin, black cylinder with a red bead on it's bottom and a small tail of gray hairs appeared. It spat out a tight gout of flames that quickly took form of a sword, before the flames sputtered out, leaving a wavering golden blade. She slowly raised the Sword of Hisou above her head.
She took a deep breath.
"Eldest Daughter, are you truly sure you wish to proceed further?" A woman floated down to stand beside her from above.
She opened her eyes. Gripped her blade tighter. Looking to the side she saw a woman with red eyes and short violet-blue hair. She had a white and red shirt on, as well as a long black skirt, and a fedora with a red bow and two long ribbons extending out. There was a long, white and red shawl entwined along her arms and blouse.
She breathed out.
"Iku. You won't stop me from doing this."
The oarfish youkai regarded her quietly for a moment.
"I'd need to know what you truly intend to do first. Do you simply want to cause trouble for the surface dwellers for your own amusement again? You remember what happened last time don't you?"
The girl only scowled in response.
"Is Lord Nai ignoring you again?"
Her scowl deepened but this time she responded.
"Father always ignores me and mother is the same as him. Ever since they started wanting to attain their accursed enlightenment, they've ignored me. It started with them asking me to stop bothering them because of their meditations and ended with them not acknowledging my existence. I thought that maybe they changed when they took me to Heaven with them. But no, they haven't."
She lowered her slightly shaking hands and left the sword in her right before turning around to face a sad looking Iku.
"I've never understood how they, how any celestial, how anyone could live like this-" She ranted angrily as swept her left hand across the idyllic landscape. "-It's so peaceful, so carefree, so boring. Anything fun they could do, they don't even enjoy. Reaching enlightenment killed all of their earthly desires. They don't do things because they enjoy them, they do them to pass time or to socialize. Every day of every week of every month of every year!" She shouted.
And then she smiled.
"But that day when I caused that earthquake in Gensokyo? People from all over the surface came up to kick my ass. Some of them even succeeded! So I later came down to fight them again for fun. Those few weeks of fighting with them, they were the most fun I've ever had in my entire life."
Her eyes hardened.
"Even now, if anyone ever talks to me, it's only about how I'm not behaving appropriately. And I just can't take it anymore!"
The woman's sighed in response.
"Elde- Tenshi. I won't stop you from causing a second earthquake. Mostly because I wouldn't be able to-" She added with a small smile. "-as a mere Messenger of the Dragon Palace. But please. Reconsider. Think about those people. Do you really wish to aggravate all of them further? Wouldn't it be better to simply come down to Gensokyo and request a duel personally instead? Your reputation with the surface dwellers is awfully low already. Please. Think this through again." She said, desperate worry trickling through her words.
"Hmph. Where's the fun if they don't go all out to get revenge? I don't want to live a boring life like that. I'll take interesting anytime." She shot back, causing the older woman to grimace.
"Very well then, Tenshi. I'll go about warning the innocents on the surface then. It wouldn't do for them to get caught up in the mess you're about to create."
"Fine." The girl turned and raised her sword again. But before she could drive it into the ground, Iku's arms gently enveloped her from behind.
"What the-" She yelped.
"Stay safe, Tenshi. And for what it's going to be worth, I'm sorry" The woman whispered in her ears, a sad note in her voice for some reason, before flying off to do her job.
"H-hey!" She stammered out, blushing lightly. She wouldn't admit to anyone, even herself, but ever since they've met she started considering the woman as a new mother figure. Especially since her own mother seemed content with never talking to her again.
"Who does she think she is anyway? And why was she sorry?" The girl mumbled embarrassed, before shaking her head. It wasn't important now.
She took a moment to compose herself and raised her sword yet again. She took an another deep breath.
And then she plunged it into the ground before her, channeled her magic into the blade and used her ability to manipulate the earth.
At first glance, it would appear to have achieved nothing but Tenshi knew better. She could feel the dirt shifting beneath her feet, ever so slightly. The solid rock below it following suit. It took a few seconds but she could feel the ground of Gensokyo, hundreds of meters below trembling. She pulled the sword out of the earth and turned to leave. She had to get ready before they arrive. She wondered who would come first. The shrine maiden or the witch? Or mayb-
"My, my. It seems you're causing a new incident, you naughty celestial." She heard a voice creepily whisper in her ears.
"Gah!" She started, turning around and swinging her sword at the offender.
The voice's owner was a woman with long, blond hair covered by a pink mob cap with a thin red ribbon. She wore a deep purple dress and held a pink lacy parasol in her right hand. Her clothes and tips of her free flowing hair were decorated with small red ribbons. But the two traits which allowed Tenshi to identify her instantly with, were her piercing, golden eyes and the fact that only the upper half of her body was visible, coming out of a hole in reality filled with purple eyes, some of which were looking at her. Before her was Yukari Yakumo, The Legendary Gap Youkai, Border of Phantasm and one of the youkai sages of Gensokyo. One of the people who managed to beat her before. Effortlessly, even.
And she was looking extremely displeased. And despite the sinking feeling in her gut, Tenshi didn't let her alarm show.
"I should have figured you would be the first one here."
The gap youkai's eyes narrowed.
"Yes. You should have. Now, it is time to discuss your punishment."
"Punishment?" She repeated dumbly. Fear started to creep inside her mind.
"Yes." The gap in space moved itself downwards, showing the rest of herself.
"If you're not here to fight me then get out." Tenshi commanded with false bravado.
"Despite knowing that there will be consequences to it, you decided to cause a second earthquake on the surface." Yukari ignored her, taking a step forward. "And for that, you will be punished."
Tenshi gulped and pointed her blade at the woman's throat.
"Stay away. Fight me or leave." She balled up her left hand into a fist and the other hand holding the sword shook.
"You should have listened to your caretaker when she asked you to reconsider your course of action Tenshi Hinanawi." The words froze Tenshi's blood in her veins.
"You were eavesdropping on us?!"
"No. You see, celestial, I make a point in knowing about everything happening in Gensokyo. From the time you first caused an incident I've been carefully watching what you were doing. I gave that oarfish a chance to make you stand down, a chance she begged for and you wasted it. So now, the last matter is that of your punishment." Yukari's tone was cold, her smile vicious.
Tenshi trembled. Her eyes were wide in terror, breath frantic and her heart hammered in her chest. She took a step back and tripped over something, falling on her butt.
"W-what are you going to do? You can't kill me or the celestials will cry out for your blood! They may not like me but I'm still one of them!" She shouted, standing up and backing away. This was bad. She didn't consider the possibility of the gap hag being this mad about this!
"Oh, I won't kill you." The blonde woman spoke and her tone was as cold as the South Pole. She put her parasol over her shoulder and pointed her index finger in Tenshi's direction. Then, she spoke with a voice booming across the entire field.
"I, Yukari Yakumo with authority given to me as a youkai sage and overseer of Gensokyo hereby declare Tenshi Hinanawi guilty of repeated disturbance of peace across the entire land with irresponsible use of her power. Her sentence is banishment to a different world for an indeterminate amount of time, to be carried out immediately." Tenshi gaped and she felt a gap open behind her, starting to suck her in.
"W-wait! Stop! Please!" She screamed, eyes closed as the air rushed into the unknown past her. She plunged the Sword of Hisou into the ground with both hands before her trying to anchor herself to the ground but it was of no use. The pull only increased in it's power over time and she felt the grip her feet had on the ground fade.
When she opened her eyes again a few seconds later she saw Yukari walking towards her, completely unbothered by the raging winds and the pull of the gap. She touched the hilt of the blade Tenshi was holding with and it broke apart into the flames that formed it before they were quickly extinguished.
And as the blue haired girl flew into the portal screaming, she could see her judge staring with a satisfied smirk, waving her goodbye.
Author's Note: Well, here it is, my first crossover on this site. Hopefully people like, even if this is just a prologue for now. The title of this fic is Fairy Tail's Celestial and as I've stated in my other piece of fanfiction on this site, this title is temporary until I find a better one, although it has a chance of being made permanent. Arc titles and other such things might change as well later on, though their content will (probably) stay the same. Updates will be irregular as well since me writing depends on my motivation, mood and school.
As a second smaller note, I didn't really know how to write Yukari here and it ended with me making her a bit too hostile, I think.
Anyway, hope you enjoyed reading this and I know this isn't much but the first chapter will feature the Fairy Tail characters and how they find our protagonist.
