Walking one step at a time, his arms hung at his sides as he tried oh so hard to walk on. He was just so hungry, and parched! He was wandering through a forest, it has been a few days since Zeref teleported him here. The only things he had he had already eaten, and now he was hungry. He stumbles forward and bumps into something. He expected it to be some kind of tree with how hard is was. Instead when he looked up he was a red haired goddess carrying a giant horn over her shoulder. The reason why she looks so godly to the child because she was the first person he has seen since he's been here, not only that but she should have food on her.

However the menacing look she carried made him squeal and jump away from her. She raises a delicate eyebrow before speaking. "What's your name, and what's a child like you doing all alone in a forest like this?" Her voice sounded demanding and he swallows before attempting to speak himself. "Aladdin..... food..." He says weakly, the red head places the horn down in time to catch the little boy from falling on his head.

"Thank you for helping me Onee-chan!" The blue haired boy says happily as he takes another bite of the melon placed before him. The red head beside him smiles. " You should also thank the villagers for giving you food as well." She says, Aladdin swallows the bit of food in his mouth. "Thank you everyone!" He says while grinning. The villagers seemed so nice, it has been awhile since Aladdin was surrounded by a bunch of people. It made him feel a bit giddy. The village elder shakes his head. "No need to thank us, if this woman would have never helped us then you would've never been found. So she should be thanked the most."

The red head beside him smiles kindly. "No need to thank me, all in a day's work."

"Speaking of work, we will decorate the horn of the beast you've slain and let you have it as a reward." She nods and the other villagers cheer before making their way over to the giant object. Aladdin looks at the horn,whatever it came from must've been huge! Maybe it was bigger than Ugo! He turns toward the red head. "You didn't tell me your name, Onee-chan." Aladdin was then met with a closed eye smile. "My name is Erza Scarlet." She says. Now that they were close enough Aladdin saw that she had brown eyes, and she wore armor over her clothing. A blue crest was on the armor as well, it somehow reminded him of the tattoo on his wrist. He then turns to the villagers that were now decorating the giant horn.

"I didn't properly catch your name before." She says. Aladdin turns to her. "I'm Aladdin! A traveler!"

Aladdin looks around the streets as Erza orders tickets for the train they were going to take. They were in a town called Onibas. After ordering food from a bar and eating they were ready to move to the next town. Aladdin was very excited since he's never been on a train. There weren't any in Alvarez and Aladdin only heard of them in the books he read in Zeref's study. So he was really giddy. At first the ticket man said they couldn't ride because of the giant horn Erza had, but after the look that was given and the red head somehow managing to fit it inside the train cart the attendant gave in. Aladdin happily runs over when he was called and boards the train after the armored teen. He takes his seat next to the window so he could see the scenery passing by. "You've never been on a train Aladdin?" The boy shakes his head as he watches the town get smaller and smaller. He sits back and begins to kick his legs back on forth.

Aladdin was nudged awake when the train stopped. He sits up and rubs his eyes before his gaze landed on Erza. She was standing and looking down at him, waiting for him to get up. Still a bit sleepy he stands up, grabs his pack and staff, and the two walk down the aisle to get off. Aladdin subconsciously grabbed the older's hand. He had a bad habit of doing that. Whenever he and Zeref would walk around Aladdin would always grab a piece of his robe or his hand. Zeref didn't seem to mind. Erza looks down at the boy and Aladdin pulls his hand away. "Gomen ne..." He mumbles with a small smile, Erza shakes her head. "It's fine Aladdin."

Walking off the train, Erza grabbed her reward and the two began to walk through the streets of the town they were in. Aladdin looks around, a bit of excitement began to spring within him. He tugs on Erza's skirt. "Where are we Erza-nee?" He asks. Erza seems to smile with a bit of pride. "We have made it to Magnolia. This is the town I live in." Aladdin nods and looks around the streets as they passed by. He took note of how some people waved and greeted the older as they walked by. Erza returned them with a smile and a greeting of her own. He smiles at this and looks forward.

Soon they came to a stop in front of a building. Aladdin stares up at the building before him. It had a flag and the letters carved in spelled out 'Fairy Tail'. Aladdin's eyes widen as he remembered what the other told him to look for, he silently wondered why. Erza looks at the building as well before a serious expression came across her face. Aladdin gulps when she looks at him. "Aren't you going in Aladdin?"

He nods before she walks forward and opens the heavy wooden doors. Whatever was going on when the doors were closed immediately stopped as the redhead walked in. Aladdin watches as everyone stared as she walked in, horn over her shoulder, a serious expression on her face. Once she was a good distance in she drops the horn before glancing at everyone in the room.

"I'm back. Is master present at the moment" Her voice carried out. The people in the room seemed to be in a state of shock before a few spoke up. "W-Welcome back Erza!! Masters attending the regular meeting." She hums before nodding. "I see.." Aladdin watches from the back as her eyes scanned the whole room once more. "Erza-san.. what is that huge thing?" A man asks. Erza closes her eyes and smiles. "The people of the town decorated the horn of the demon I subdued. It was so pretty that I brought it back." She raises an eyebrow. "It isn't a nuisance is it?" Aladdin watches as the man vigorously shook his head. He could tell he was intimidated by the girl easily and he couldn't help the giggle that passed by his lips. Erza then looked over to him, making the others look his direction as well. "Come from over there Aladdin." She says and the boy obeys while nodding. She places a firm hand on his shoulder.

"This is Aladdin. I met him while on my mission. He was thinking of joining the guild." She introduces him. In all honesty he didn't know that Fairy Tail was a guild. He honestly didn't know how to picture it. As he looks around the room he could see very few of the light bird like creatures fly around, there weren't any black ones in sight. A boy with orange hair and glasses came to look him up and down. He wore a green coat and many rings decorated his fingers. "He's so small." Was the first thing he said and Aladdin pouted, just because he was small didn't mean anything, plus he was probably the same age as him. Aladdin had stopped counting his age once he realized he stopped growing. However Erza came to his rescue.

"That doesn't mean anything Loke. He probably has a lot of potential." As soon as that left her mouth a pink haired boy came in between Aladdin and the other boy, Loke. He looks at the salmon haired boy, green eyes stared him down and Aladdin couldn't help but tilt his head to the side in wonder. The boy wore a scarf and an open vest that exposed his chest. Aladdin also took note of a blue cat hovering near the boy.

"Can you fight!?" He asks and Aladdin nodded his head on reflex. He could use his own magic and the magic Zeref taught him, but he promised the older not to use it around others unless he mastered it or felt completely comfortable with it. There was also Ugo who could not only use magic but had an enormous amount of physical strength. The boy smiles, showing his sharp teeth. He holds his hand out and Aladdin shakes hands with the other. "My names Natsu Dragneel! This is Happy! Now let's fight!"

"Aye!"

"Natsu..." Erza warned and the older broke out into a cold sweat as she stared him down. He gulps before patting the blue haired boy's head and making his way back over to the blonde and blue haired boy near the bar. Aladdin's eyes widened once he realized the other was naked. The blonde seemed to see this and immediately shouted at the other. "Gray! Your clothes!!"

"Crap!"

"Erza~ Can't we see what he's capable of?" Natsu whined and Erza looks at him before looking at Aladdin. "Only if he agrees to it." Natsu did a have five with Happy and looked toward Aladdin. He nods his head and his response was a wide grin.

They were in a deserted area not too far away from the town. Erza instructed them to take the fight out of the town so that there wouldn't be that much damage. So him, Natsu and all the other fairy tail members went outside to spectate the fight that was going to take place. Now he and Natsu stood a few meters away from each other. Aladdin grips his staff and takes a deep breath. He hasn't used any magic since Zeref put the jewel inside his arm, so he doesn't know how much of his power is limited, but he still needed to try. Natsu grins before slamming his fist together and fire erupted from them. Aladdin stares a bit in shock before regaining his focus.

The first attack was thrown by Natsu, he charged at the boy with great speed and swung his fist out in a punch. Aladdin barely dodges it, and that's when he realized that Natsu was better built than him. Meaning that he could be faster and physically stronger than the other. Aladdin was still in a child's body, which was - he'll admit- a bit weak. Natsu flips around easily and his feet catches flame. Using the momentum he sends out a kick and this time Aladdin ducks. He was so happy he did training, but he needed some space! Taking a deep breath Aladdin grips his staff and says the incantation before Natsu could recover.

"Asfal Riih!" A wall of wind pushed Natsu back a few meters off his feet in surprise. All the wind was knocked out of him as well too but he was still able to land on his feet. Aladdin gulps, to him the limiter didn't void his magic down that much, maybe it was only for the black magic. However he didn't need to worry about that now.He looks at Natsu, since he was a fire type that meant fire was weak or didn't have an affect on him. Aladdin frowns a bit since his strong suit was fire magic. There was also a bit of strength magic being his second, but he hasn't mastered all of the fundamentals. Then there was a bit of gravity magic as well. So maybe now would be a good time to figure out if he could do that one spell.......

Natsu grins from his side of the field, seems as though the little guy did have some spirit in him after all. He had to admit that that gust of wind did feel like a strong punch to the gut, but he's had far worse than that. Slamming his fist together and his grin getting even bigger he could feel the fire in him going crazy. "Alright now I'm all fired up!!" He exclaims and sucks in a breath.

Aladdin stares at the salamander as he sucked in a breath. A red magic circle materialized in front of him and Natsu's cheeks were puffed out. Aladdin blinks and holds tighter to his staff.

"Karyū no Hōkō!!" He shouts and a roar of flames was sent Aladdin's way. The boy blinks before taking in a breath, this was the perfect opportunity to do it. Instead dodging like what would be expected he forces his hand out and points two fingers upward.

"Dhoruf Sabaha!!" He yells out.

The ones speciating couldn't see much detail in the spell the boy used. However once Aladdin said that it immediately perked Levy's interest. She was sure she had heard the somewhere....However the thought was quickly thrown away when she and the others saw Natsu's magic somehow stop for a split second and then rocketed in the Salamanders direction with at least twice as much force.

Natsu's eyes widened and he grinned even more before eating the flames sent his way. He was nearly thrown off his footing since the force was twice as strong but it didn't knock him over. He swallows them up and let's out a burp while patting his stomach. "Thanks." He breathes out. " That was awesome!!!"

The ones watching were a bit shocked that Aladdin was able to do something like that
The dragon slayer was really excited as ever!

Aladdin blinks, he has seen many weird things but this was a first. He couldn't help but let out a little laugh at the comment Natsu made. He nods his head and readys himself once more.

Only to feel a wave of dizziness washed over him. He stumbles over a bit then uses his staff to lean on as support. "Oi!" Natsu called out and ran over to catch the boy. Aladdin mumbles. He hasn't used that spell before so.it was likely to exhaust him. His eyes grew a bit heavy as well.

"Bring him back to the guild. It seems as though he over used his magic." Erza ordered. Aladdin keeps his eyes open as Natsu lifts him up easily. It was also because the fact of the limiter he had that he was exhausted too. Maybe.

They made it back to the guild hall and Aladdin was still awake. Somehow he managed to regain some energy while he was being moved. He wiggles out of Natsu's grip easily and stands up.

"I feel better Natsu-nii!" He says with a closed eye smile. Natsu nods his head and Happy does too. However Erza had a frown on her face. The boy seemed out of not too long ago.

~~~~~~~

"So are you joining Aladdin-san?" The white haired woman asks from the bar. It has been a few hours from their little spar and Aladdin sits on the bar table while drinking a cup of juice. He looks over to the young woman, Mirajane, and looks down at his cup. After a moment he nods his head. "Mhm!" Mirajane let's out a smile. "I'll go get the guilds stamp then."

Moments later she reappeared with the stamp, a smile still on her face. The rest of Fairy Tail was occupied by other things to notice what was going on. "What color would you like and where?"

Aladdin stops and thinks...he didn't know they came in different colors!!

"Black!" He decides and Mira nods. Aladdin holds his hand out, palm facing down and Mira stamps the back of his hand. He beams at the mark and the other couldn't help but let out a chuckle. Then a thought struck him."Can Ugo-kun get one too!?" He says referring to his friend. With all the commotion going on he didn't want to leave his friend out. Besides, Ugo could use magic as well so he should be able to join. Mirajane nods. "I don't see why not. Where is he? Is he a wizard"

Aladdin smiles and puts his flute to his lips, he looks around the guild hall to see if his friend would be big enough. Even if he was too big he could manipulate his own size to shrink so it wouldn't matter. He blows unfit he flute and a high pitched shrill came out, alerting most of the guild members. The symbol on the flute glowed brightly and everyone's eyes either went wide or their mouths dropped.

Sitting in the middle of the guild hall was the blue giant, Ugo.

Aladdin hasn't called him out since he left but he has before then. Ever since he passed out the first day in Alvarez he was able to summon Ugo's full body, including the head. Zeref said it was probably because of the boy's unlimited magic.

Ugo blinks down at Aladdin and at the people around him. He was sure that this wasn't the palace Aladdin used to be in. There were also way more people around as well. Feeling a hand on his leg he looks down at his little friend.

"Everyone this is Ugo-kun!"

Silence swept over the guild.....

"HE LOOKS AWESOME!!!" A certain dragon slayer yelled out, breaking everyone out their trance. Natsu ran his way over to the blue giant. Happy flew above and landed on his head. "He's so huge!" He peeks down and Ugo looks up at the talking cat. He's seen a lot of creatures in his life so this didn't surprise him.

"C'mon Ugo-kun! Introduce yourself!"

Seeing as he was being rude he looks back down.

"My name is Ugo-"

He was cut off when a woman with brown hair and what seemed like a bra came up to him. Ugo immediately stopped talking and begin to fidget a bit and turned a shade of pink.

"He seems well built..."

Aladdin eyes widen as she reached her hand out toward him. "D-Don't Miss!!" It was too late, Ugo went completely red and disappeared in a puff of smoke. Happy fell from his position where the giant used to be a few seconds ago but managed to fix himself and flew over to Natsu. The guild went quiet again and stared at Aladdin. He lets out a sigh.

"Ugo-kun is extremely shy around girls. When one touches him he usually faints." He explains to them. He remembers the first time the blue giant met Brandish and Dimaria. Let's just say that the introductions didn't last that long. The brown haired girl scratches the back of her head with a nervous laugh. "Ah! So he's the shy one. Sorry."

Aladdin nods his head toward her and she smiles. "Name's Cana." She says it before going back to the table she was at and grabbing a barrel. Aladdin watches in awe as she starts to gulp whatever was in it down.

"Aladdin." Aladdin turns to see Erza behind him. "I would like to ask you something, along with Gray and Natsu."

At the sound of their names from the red head the two immediately stopped bickering. Aladdin tilts his head to the side in slight interest and follows the teen to the other two.

"I would like you all to accompany me on a mission." From Natsu's and the other's reaction this must've meant something serious. Aladdin didn't quite understand since he was new.

"E-Erza needs help with a mission?!" They both say in unison.

Aladdin looks at the overcrowded house of Happy and Natsu. After Erza told them about the mission she told them to pack and get a goodnight's rest, saying that she'll explain further tomorrow. Since Aladdin didn't have a place to stay or any money (which he found out were jewels) Happy and Natsu offered him a place since the boy couldn't afford an apartment.

"Sorry about the mess." Natsu says as he moves a few things over off a nearby shelf. He shuffles through the things and pulls out what looks like a woven quilt.

"We don't have a bed. I usually use a hammock and Happy sleeps with me." Aladdin shakes his head, besides the mess he could live with that little change. He didn't usually sleep in the bed Zeref gave him that much. He would fall asleep in the other's study most of the time with a book and a pile of blankets and pillows. Before that when he lived with Ugo he'd sleep with the blue giant who was actually warm.

"Thank you." He takes the quilt and the salamander shuffles around a bit more and tosses him a pillow. since the boy didn't see it coming it hit him in the head and Aladdin fell to the floor with a squeak. Natsu turns his head to the side. "Sorry."

Aladdin pops back up with a pout before taking the pillow and hitting the other with it. Natsu easily evaded the playful attack and picks up the pillow on his own hammack. With a playful grin he hits the other on the head with it.

Needles to say the two engaged into a full out battle front pillow fight. Which ended up with Happy being knocked into the kitchen and front room getting more messy. In the end the two ended up sleeping in Natsu's hammock.
