Chapter 1
New Comer
Leta Velius was sitting by herself over in the corner, tipping her chair onto its two back legs in a bored manor. Her long black hair down to the middle of her back, but was over the back of the chair due to the girls tilt. Her bangs hung down over her light blue eyes. They were closed as she tried to relax. It was rather difficult to do so when everyone around her was talking loudly and acting as if they were all at a party. It was sort of like a bar anyways. What else could she expect?
The seventeen year old girl was a wizard and was a part of the Fairy Tail Guild. She had only been a member of the guild for a month. She had taken seven jobs with high pay and had gotten the reputation of being a lone wizard. She didn't talk to other people in the guild except for one of the workers, Mirajane. She was a very nice girl that approached Leta unlike everyone else.
Mirajane was a very pretty nineteen year old girl. She had long white hair pulled away from her face. Her pale white skin matched her hair and made her big, dark blue eyes stand out. She was a petite girl and was rather busty. She was known to a lot of people who read Sorcerer Weekly. She was a swimsuit model, but also worked at Fairy Tail.
Leta admired the girl for working there with how much violence broke out. Everyday there would be a fight that almost everyone would join in. She also had the guts to approach Leta while everyone else was a little frightened by her. Her blue eyes were like ice. Her pale skin, almost exactly the same tone as Mirajane's, almost looked even paler due to her black contrasting hair and darker clothing. Really the skirt she wore was the only really dark article of clothing she work, being black, but it still made her look all the more pale.
Leta was also a pretty, young girl. She had pale, smooth skin and silky black hair. She was skinny and the average height of a seventeen year old. Leta was also rather busty. It seemed like a lot of the girls there were. Her light blue tank top was darker than her eyes and brought them out nicely. She had black rings around her wrists on her skin, almost like tattoos, but they were natural. She also had one around her neck, almost resembling a black choker necklace and one around each of her ankles. Many people wondered what they were and how she got them. Most thought they were tattoos. She also had a think black chain with strange amulet on it around her neck.
People in the Guild didn't even know what king of wizard she was. There were rumors that she was a Celestial Wizard, but nobody ever saw her carrying around Celestial Charms. Others thought she had Holder type magic. However, none of them had ever seen her perform any kind of magic. Nobody knew anything about the girl, really.
There had been rumors about her. Some people thought she used to be a rogue wizard. Others thought she was a nomad, just wondering around learning different forms of magic. Some thought she was just anti-social. Others thought she was a great wizard who didn't want people to know about her, others thought that she was trying to make herself seem more important and more powerful than she actually was. Then again, she didn't give them anything to go on so their minds were bound to wonder.
Leta was taken out of her thoughts when the front door of the Guild Hall was kicked open. She casually looked over to see a fellow member of the Guild named Natsu. He was a spiky, pink haired boy. He was very fit. You could see how sculpted he was by his open vested and sleeveless clothing. He was a strong boy. He was a Fire Dragon Slayer. Leta admired how strong he was, but wasn't too fond of his magic. She wasn't fond of fire.
"We made it back alive!" Natsu yelled.
The talking little blue furred cat that was Natsu's partner and friend then yelled, "We're home!"
Leta had to admit to herself that the little cat was completely adorable. Happy was the cat's name. He was an Exceed. He, along with Mirajane was the only people who had ever talked to Leta. Leta always seemed to perk up when those two talked to her. She may have been a quiet person, but that didn't mean she didn't like to converse every now and then.
There was a blonde girl right behind him looking around with an amazed expression on her face. The girl was very pretty. She was young, being about the same age as Leta. For the most part, her blonde hair was down except for some that was pulled up by a blue ribbon on the side of her head. Her brown eyes looked around the place excitedly. Overall, she looked like a nice girl.
This'll be interesting, Leta thought. She kept her attention on the two people and cat that had just entered Fairy Tail. It always is when he gets back.
Various greetings could be heard being given to Natsu. However, one person stood out as he spoke to him. "So I heard you went all out in Hargeon, Natsu. Had to go start trouble-." He didn't get to finish due to Natsu kicking the guy in the face.
And so it begins, Leta though, shaking her head and a small smirk playing on her lips.
"Why did you do that?" the blonde girl asked, her expression showing that she was completely freaked out. If she was going to get freaked out like that, then she wasn't going to be able to handle being in Fairy Tail.
"You lied about that Salamander," Natsu yelled. "I'm gonna kick your butt!"
"Don't get mad at me!" the guy yelled. "I'm not the one to blame here. I just passed along a rumor I heard."
"It was just a rumor?" Natsu yelled.
"You want to fight? Let's go!" the guy yelled.
And so the daily fight begins, Leta though, shaking her head.
"Now, now Natsu," Happy started to say in a calming tone. "I think you need to calm down." Poor Happy had a person pushed into him, sending him flying across a table.
As usually, everyone joined in on the fighting. They fought one another like they were mortal enemies or something. This was rather normal for the Fairy Tail Guild though. You got rather used to it after you were part of the Guild for about a week or so. Leta had been just as shocked as the new blonde girl was when she first saw what went on inside the famous Guild. It was rather strange behavior. Yet, they were a rather strange guild.
"Oh wow," the new girl said. "I'm actually standing inside the Fairy Tail Guild hall." Okay, so maybe she wasn't so shocked. But she had been earlier.
Leta got up from her chair and ducked and dodged multiple attacked as she crossed the large room. She stopped in front of the girl and gave a very small, uncharacteristic smile and stuck out her hand. "Hi," she said. "I'm Leta."
The girl looked at her a little shocked. Just by looking at her, she could tell she wasn't the type to go up and introduce themselves. However, she smiled back and took her hand. "I'm Lucy. Nice to meet you."
"You're new right?" Leta asked.
"I'm hoping to get in," Lucy said. "It's my dream Guild."
Leta gave a small laugh. "Don't worry about it," she said. "You'll get in just fine. You just have to get used to everybody and how strange they are."
"So Natsu finally made it back, huh?" Gray yelled. He stood up and turned around.
Leta shook her head and tried to get the blush that had formed on her face off. As per usual, Gray had somehow managed to strip himself into only his boxer shorts. Leta had to admit, the eighteen year old black haired boy was very fit. His arms, legs and chest her all sculpted very nice. He was very nice to look at. However, it was embarrassing to see him in nothing but his underwear. Every once in a while, that wouldn't even be there to cover him.
Lucy yelled in surprise. "That," Leta said, covering her face with her hands to try and hid the blush and turned her head slightly away. "You don't really get used to." She wouldn't admit it, but she secretly liked it. Hey, she was a teenage girl and he was a hot teenage guy! It was a little hard not to like it. But as said before, she wouldn't admit it if you asked her about it. "He has a bad habit of taking off his clothes."
"It's time we settled things once and for all," he said, brutally walking over to the mob of fighting people.
"Gray," a female at the bar said. "Your clothes."
"I don't have time for that!" Gray called back.
"That's Cana," Leta said to Lucy. "She holds the title for Fairy Tail's heaviest drinker."
"See I don't date the men here because they have no class," Cana said. She picked up one of the barrels of alcohol and started to drink straight from it.
"Yeah," Leta said, seeing Lucy's facial expression. "Classy."
"Come here and fight me, Natsu!" Gray yelled, kicking something across the room.
"Not until you put some clothes on!" Natsu yelled, fighting the guy who had told him about the rumor. Leta believed his name was Krov, but she never really paid much attention to the buck toothed guy. She knew almost everyone at Fairy Tail despite only being a member for about a month, but she caught on to a lot just sitting in her corner and listening to everything going on around her.
"It's only noon and you boy are already winning like spoiled babied," a tall man with white hair said. He walked up next to the two girls who seemed much shorter than him.
"That's Elfman," Leta said told Lucy, not looking away from the people fighting before her. She wanted to make sure she wasn't going to get hit by anyone. You never knew when someone or something would get thrown across a room at you. They dragged anyone and everyone into their daily fight. They just fought for the sake of fighting, it seemed. Leta preferred to just stand back and watch, not wanting to get injured.
"I'm a real man! You want me to prove it to you?" he yelled, holding up his fist.
"I can't believe he's encouraging them," Lucy said.
"You won't believe a lot of things that go on here," Leta muttered.
Gray and Natsu turn around and both punched the man, sending him flying. Leta just shook her head. She had seen that coming from a mile away. Maybe it was just her, but she often saw a lot of things to come. Maybe it was just her logic that allowed her to see what was coming or since she observed them for a while. The people around her were just too thick to see what was coming next. You'd think for being wizards they'd be able to do that, but apparently not.
"They knocked him out that easily?" Lucy asked.
"Natsu and Gray are two of the best wizards in Fairy Tail," Leta told Lucy quietly. "Just don't tell them I said that. They're head's don't need to get big."
"Geez," a male voice from behind the two girls said. They turned around to see an amber haired boy with sunglasses on and two girls on his lap talking. "It's so noisy around here, huh?" The girls just swooned over him. Leta just rolled her eyes at him.
"That's Loke," Leta said. "The 'Lady Killer.' Ranked high up on the eligible wizard's bachelor list. He's basically just a player." Leta wasn't impressed by people like him. She was never going to date someone like that. Yet, she didn't date much in the first place. She was too busy with all of the missions she went on.
Something got thrown across the room and hit Loke on the head. The two girls asked him if he all right, fearing for their handsome player wizard was hurt. All Loke looked was annoyed by what had happened. He was a wizard; he could take care of himself. Being hit on the head by something so small shouldn't have hurt him really. Wizards were supposed to be able to take much more damaging things than that.
"I'm going to go fight," he said. "Only to protect two." The girls just seemed to swoon at that.
Leta rolled her eyes. She curiously looked at Lucy who had pulled out a book and marked crossed off a picture of Loke in it. "He's definitely off my list," she said, shutting the book. "What the heck is wrong with these people? There's not one sane person in the whole place."
"Ouch," Leta joked, placing her hand over her heart. "That hurts, Lucy."
"Except you," Lucy said.
"Hello," a voice from behind them said. "Are you new here?"
"Hi Mirajane," Leta said casually.
"It's Mirajane!" Lucy squealed, freaking out. "In the flesh! Uh, don't you think we should try to stop them or something?" she asked.
"It's always like this around here," Mirajane explained. "I just leave them alone, right Leta?"
"Pretty much," Leta said.
"Besides," she said. Elfman got thrown into Mirajane. She fell to the ground with him on top of her. "It's kind of fun, don't you think?" Her soul seemed to visibly come out of here. It hadn't been the first time Leta had seen that happen to her. She was fine. She'd go back to normal in a minute or so.
"Don't die, Mirajane!" Lucy yelled, freaking out.
Leta and Lucy were knocked down to the ground when someone was pushed into them from behind. They could hear Natsu laughing. Once the person jumped off them, Lucy and Leta stood up and looked at who had knocked them over.
"Give me back my underwear, jerk!" Gray said.
Oh no, Leta thought. Her face turned completely red as she placed her hands over her mouth and cheeks to try to hide her blush, being completely unsuccessful. Her eyes widened as her eyes looked down at the completely naked Gray. Sure, it hadn't been the first time that he had ended up being completely naked when the girl was around. It wasn't the first time she had seen him like that, but whenever she did see him like that, she couldn't help but look at him and get embarrassed. He was just too nice looking not to. He wasn't just hot, but he was sexy. It was her teenage hormones that took over her when she saw him like that.
Lucy screamed and tried to cover her eyes, but looked through her fingers. It seemed she couldn't completely look away either. He then turned around and looked at the two girls and walked over to them, making them blush and freak out even more. Lucy moved away a little, having the room to do so, but Leta was stuck. She was trapped by one of the support beams of the building, unable to more away.
"Excuse me Misses," Gray said rather politely to the two girls. "Could I please barrow your underwear?" Yeah…polite.
Lucy, being very insulted like Leta, grabbed a large fan and hit Gray with it. He went falling away from the girls. Leta was rather relieved when he was gone. She sighed and looked next to here to find Lucy being picked up by Loke. She was freaking out because of him now.
"These guys are so insensitive," he said. "A woman has needs-." He wasn't able to finish what he was saying because Elfman punched him making Loke drop Lucy and go flying across the room.
"Real men speak with their fists, Loke!" he yelled.
Natsu then kicked Elfman sending him across the room. "I told you to butt out!"
"Aye," Happy said weakly.
"Are you okay, Lucy?" Leta asked, helping the girl to her feet.
"I guess so," she said.
"That's enough you guys," Cana said, taking out one of her magic spell cards (Does that sound like Yu-Gi-Oh to anyone?). "I suggest that you knock it off."
"Oh yeah?" Gray yelled, having gotten his underwear back and put them back on where they belonged. "Says who?" He was using his Ice Magic in his hands.
Everyone seemed to start using their magic instead of using their strength to fight. Leta sighed and looked at Lucy who was holing up Happy as a shield to protect herself. Poor Happy didn't look so happy about that. "They always fight like this?" she asked.
"Uh-huh," Happy said.
"Pretty much," Leta said.
"You don't seem worried," Lucy stated.
"I'm not," Leta said. She took Happy out of Lucy's hands, not wanting the poor little cat to be used as a shield anymore. She held him in her arms as he rested his head against her ample chest. "Don't worry, Happy," she said to the blue cat. "I've got you." She knew very well that he could take care of himself, but she didn't care. She just couldn't help but feel like she needed to take care of the adorable little cat. Although, he wasn't really a cat in the first place. He was an Exceed. It was a race of cat-like beings.
"Would you fools stop bickering like children?" yelled a large shadow man.
"He's huge!" Lucy said, looking up at the man frightened. She was sweating and tears were running down her face. Everyone stopped at the man's orders.
"I'm sorry," Mirajane said. "I didn't know you were still here, Master."
"Did you say Master?" Lucy asked, shocked.
"Yup," Leta said.
Natsu could be heard yelling excitedly. It seemed he hadn't noticed the Master in the room. He didn't know that that was the reason everyone stopped fighting. "Man, talk about a bunch of babies! Looks like I won with round you guy!" He was then stepped on by Master and silenced.
Lucy gave out a small yelp.
"Well, it seems we have a new recruit," Master said.
"Yes sir," she said still nervous and scared.
Master growled and started to transform back into his normal self. However, Lucy didn't know that and was freaking out even more. She was completely dumbstruck. He then shrunk down to his normal self, which was a very short man in orange clothing and grey hair. "Nice to meetcha!" he said smiling at Lucy.
"He's tiny," she stated. "This little guy is really in charge here?"
"Yeah," Leta said, like it was very obvious.
"Of course he is," Mirajane said. "Allow me to introduce the Fairy Tail Guild Master, Makarov."
Makarov then jumped up to the balcony on the second floor, but didn't succeed very well. As he flipped up there, he hit his back on the railing which looked rater painful. He then shrugged it off and turned to everyone in the room. He cleared his throat before speaking. "You've gone and done it again," he yelled at everyone. "You bunch of clogs! Just take a look at how much paperwork the Magic Council sent me this time." He held up a bung of papers for everyone to see. "This is the biggest pile of complaints yet! Have you lost your minds? All you kids are good for is getting the higher ups mad at me!"
Everyone except Leta looked down at the ground guiltily. Leta didn't because she almost never made a mess of things. She was rather careful when she was working. She didn't like bringing a lot of attention to herself if it wasn't necessary. She was safer that way. And the longer she stayed unnoticed, the happier and freer she was. She couldn't really afford to have people's attention like everyone else seemed to do.
"However," Master said. He turned the papers in his hand and completely destroyed them. "I say the heck with what the Magic Council had to say." He threw the flaming papers over the ledge. Natsu jumped up and ate it. "Now listen up!" Master said. "Any power that surpasses reason still comes from reason, right? Magic isn't some kind of miraculous power. It is a talent that only works when the flow of energy inside of us and the flow of energy in the natural world are in perfect synchronization. To perform magic, one must have a strong mind and the ability to focus. It should take over your being and come pouring out of your soul. If all we do is worry about following rules, then our magic will never progress. Don't let those blow hots on the council scare you! Follow the path you believe in! 'Cause that's what makes the Fairy Tail Guild number one!"
Everyone cheered after hearing Master's speech. Truly, the man's words were inspiring to all wizards in the Guild. Leta smiled and looked at Mirajane and Lucy beside her. They two were smiling and cheering. Even if they all fought all the time, they all believe in the same things. They were all a family.
And then…!
Leta smiled at Mirajane and Lucy as Lucy got the official Fairy Tail Guild symbol stamped on her right hand. Leta's symbol was over her heart. The girl had guts to stick around Fairy Tail. Leta was glad she was staying though. Now instead of only having to friends, Mirajane and Happy, she had three! Plus, she'd get used to how Fairy Tail was sooner or later. They weren't that bad, after all. Leta got used to them quickly; she just hoped Lucy did too.
"There," Mirajane said, smiling at Lucy. "Now you're an official member of the Fairy Tail Guild!"
Lucy twirled around and squealed in delight like a little child. She looked at her hand and then ran over to Natsu to show him. Leta shook her head and looked at the request form in her hand. It was a rather simple job, but it paid well. It wouldn't take her long to do it, but it would pay for a month's worth of bills and food. She needed the money. She folded the paper and put it in one of the pockets of her black skirt.
She turned away from Lucy and Natsu who were at the Request Board and walked to the door. She was almost run over by a little boy who stormed into Fairy Tail. Leta sighed as she looked back at the boy. She turned back around and frowned. The boy's name was Romeo. His father, Macao was one of Fairy Tail's wizards. He had gone on a mission a week ago, saying he'd be back in three days. He still wasn't back yet. Romeo was very worried about his father and kept checking in to see if he was back yet.
Leta left the building and then out of town shortly after. She would have gone to look for the man, but she had her own mission and problems to worry about.
