[3]- first mission
*Team Shadow Gear's first mission*
The train stopped and a lot of mages went out of the train with us. We arrived in a place full of trees and mountains, with a river flowing nearby. An old tall castle towered the town, it has the same guild insignia as Fairy Tail.
(5 minutes later..)
"Are we there yet?" My arms were at the back of my head. We somehow landed in this random forest. For some reason, Droy was holding the map this time. The reward quest paper had a map with the client's location encircled on the map.
I looked at what Droy's map, hoping to help our friend. The map was.. inverted.
"YOU IDIOT." I hit him in the head. "We were going the wrong way." I looked the map he was holding and gave it to Levy.
" His place is at the north side. We were going to the opposite direction.." She deadpanned at our teammate.
"Baka." Again, I hit the Droy in the head.
"I didn't know how to read.. geez." He muttered.
"Then why did you volunteer to lead?!"
"I wanted to be the leader." He pouted, using the map as a shield from my attacks.
Before we could beat up our friend, a wrinkly-faced old lady passed by the woods and we called her attention. She was as tall as us.
"Do you need help, children?" She blinked and smiled warmly.
"Uh y-yes. Where is the way to Rosemary town?" Levy shyly asked
"We got lost cause of a certain idiot." I looked at Droy who flinched at my stare.
"Now Children, don't fight.. I'll lead you to that town. Could you be mages?" she asked
We nodded and the old lady began talking about her grandkids who were mages in some guild called Phantom Lord. I listened to her story the whole time as we talked with the old lady.
A few minutes passed, we finally arrived in front of an old house. An older man who looked like a butler came forward, as if he were expecting us. He had a clean cut black hair, he wore a white long sleeved shirt, black pants, and shoes.
"Ah.. you're the wizards of Fary tail? I believe?" He asked with an unusual high voice.
"Yes mister, that's us."
" Follow me please, the master is expecting your arrival." As he said that, the old lady bid us farewell. We thanked her for her help with directions.

"So where are these monster plants?" Jet asked the servant.
"Call me Mr. Alfonso.. And about that.." he paused dramatically with his eyes closed. Coincidentally, he had the same name as Lee's father which made me miss that old man. I should pay that ninja a visit.
The old client told us to follow him outside, with his cane helping him walk.
A large pink plant with large jaws growled at the sight of us. It has two small eyes and screeched at us. They were eating the remaining corn of the poor man's field, which was not that many now. Plants were scattered on the floor around the field. (A/N: see the pic)
"Oh my.." The client's eyes widened at the monster plants that took over the corn field. "There's a lot of them compared to before.."
" This might be too dangerous for you kids.. I'm afraid." He says.
" Don't worry about it old man! Team Shadow Gear can kill every plant you have here." Jet says out loud, looking proud.
"Yes! That would be a piece of cake!" Droy says after.
"Sir, please hide in your house for your own safety." I said, looking at our client.
"Yes, i'll do just that. Please call my servant if you need any of our help. " He hesitated to do what I said, he was getting commanded by children younger than him.
"So..how do we defeat them?" Levy asked me.
" We should split up to make it faster. You and Droy can take the left side.." I replied. "Me and Jet can finish the right side."
" But I want to be with Lev-" Jet complains, as I kicked him in the head before he could finish his sentence.
" hahahaha take that Jet! Don't worry.. Levy, you'll be safe with me!" Droy crosses his arms, laughing at his friend.
" You idiot better take care of her, or you'll be sorry.."I smiled threateningly at the black haired boy, as his face started sweating.
" Yes, Hanako-chan.."
*****
I held my hand out and said-
"Paper Shuriken." A bunch of papers formed like shurikens mid-air and flew to decapitate the heads of the plants. But they continued to regenerate their heads.
"Tch.. This doesn't look good.."
" Hanako, watch and learn!" Jet suddenly appears on air using his High Speed magic. He used a regular sword to do the same thing I did. " I got them now!"
The spiky haired boy made it worse as the plants' head grew more. We both sweatdropped at the growing amount of monster plants. Jet bumped into me and we both fell down at the impact.
" IDIOT, watch where you're going!" I yelled at him.
"You were on the way." He muttered to himself.
" Do you want me to behead you next?"
We started bickering until more monster plants surrounded us. We stopped fighting and decided to do a combined attack.
Jet ran around with his speed magic, he made a tornado at the process. I casted some more paper shurikens to the tornado.
"Unison raid: Paper Tornado."
The tornado killed all of the small monster plants around us easily. We were panting at the amount of magic that caused us.
We thought it was over.
What we didn't expect is that a larger plant appeared behind us, and let out a frightening roar. We were frozen in shock, Jet broke me out of my trance-
"RUN FOR YOUR LIFEE!!" He pulled my arm, while my body flew as he ran quickly.
A ball of fire flew towards us as we jumped away from the explosion, the plant continued to shoot fireballs everywhere.
I tripped over some stupid plant's roots, dragging the poor kid with me. At this very moment, we knew that we were both screwed.
