"Man, that mission was so easy.." Jet said, putting his arms at the back of his head. I only snorted at what he said.

"You know.. I did all the work back there.." I said. The ungrateful idiot spent half of the battle passed out anyway. 

"Levy! You saw what I did to that monster, right?" Droy asked the other girl, eager to be praised from his crush.

"U-uhm yeah! G-great work." She gave him a thumbs up. The other male beamed at his teammate's compliment.

The other two explained that they defeated another plant in the mayor's house. When they heard a roaring explosion from the paper bomb and managed to find me.

After collecting they're reward, the group walked back to the guild together. Jet looked at Hanako who was quiet for some reason. His curiosity couldn't contain any longer.

"I have been thinking.. you defeated the plant monsters by yourself right?"

"Yeah that's what I said earlier.." She groans.

" How did you beat it??" Droy asking me to explain myself.

"I used a hidden spell that took all my magic. It managed to work at least.." I lied a bit, making them believe i didn't use a magic item to finish the job. I accidentally poured too many magic on that paper bomb and it ended with me getting burn marks.

"Sugoi." He believed my lie easily. I didn't notice but Levy was looking at my injuries worriedly. "As expected of the team's leader!"

- t i m e s k i p -

"Stand back, guys.." I told them and they stood behind me like a squad.

I kicked the door with my foot, we got everyone's attention turned to us.

"Those kids look beat."

"Who are these brats?"

"HANAKO! You're back!" Lisanna called out, she was sitting with her siblings. 

Murmurs flooded the guild. The oldest of the three shouted at us with her loud voice-

"Hey, paper freak. You guys look terrible." She was squatting on Macao and Wakaba's backs.

"Whatever, Mira."

"Also- stop bullying them, can you?" I said as the two grown men bowed their head at me repeatedly, saying thank you.

"Oh yeah? You want to end up like your teammates like last time?" With every question she walked closer and tried to be intimidating.

"Pfft.. obviously I was winning that fight if Gramps didn't interrupt us."

I zoned out the insults she bombarded at me. Until she punched me and I felt my face bruise from the pain. My eyes were threatening to cry..

"What you're gonna cry? HAHAH pathetic" Mira laughed loudly like a stupid witch at my state. Something inside me has snapped and I said-

"Paper Blizzard.." My hand was glowing with light, the attention of the guildmates were on us, curious to see who would win our fight. 

"Scatter." A large number of papers floated around the guild.

"My eyes ..!" A random guild member shouted, the paper was in his face.

The papers formed like a giant fist and was ready to attack Mira. In return, the bully was sweating bullets. She made her arm turn into the monster one.

"Bring it on, freak." Mirajane taunts at me. The crowd started becoming noisy as they cheered for Me or the demon girl.

I launched the fist to Mira until a strong lightning bolt broke the paper's formation, much to my annoyance. It brought everyone's attention to the master's grandson. 

There stood a thin young boy with headphones on his neck, yellow hair, and an indifferent face. He was called"Laxus Dreyar", the leader of the Thunder Tribe. 

"HEY! WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM, HUH?" I screeched at the teenager, who was not wearing headphones right now. 

I recall Cana, and the rest telling me to avoid a mage like him. He was a dangerous person to mess with, his personality suck.

"Brat.." He ignored me and turned to the old man. "There you happy now, gramps?" He turned back and walked away silently with the Thunder tribe.

The guild master walked in with two new kids who were as tall as him. He looked annoyed for some reason.

"Thank you, Laxus. As for you two." He turned to us. "You're cleaning the dishes for this week."

I was about to protest childishly until my team went to me in worry.

"Hana-chan!" They called to me and greeted the master.

"Hm. Who are they?" Jet asked, looking at the new mages with gramps.

The first kid had short red hair, and a white eyepatch. Her face looked lost for some reason. She has many scratches on her arms.

The second one was a boy who was taller than me by few inches, he has blue hair, and has his arms behind his head.

"Well.. this is Erza Scarlet and..." he introduced at the red head and to the blue haired kid.

"Gray Fullbuster." The blue haired kid looked back, boredly.
