Chapter Six: Long Time No See or Hisashiburi
Sora's POV
It's been about five years since we got to Magnolia. We've kept ourselves scarce. Until now, that is. We're, or rather I'm, being chased by some nasty men. I told everyone else to scatter and head back to our little home outside of Fairy Tail I was over in the market area when two men, who I thought were drunk, pulled out some daggers and started to chase me.
*Flashback*
"Hey Sora, how about we buy this?" Galaxia asked me. "Sure." I replied. I sensed some people with bad intentions and mentally told to girls to scatter. They know about my ability with thoughts after I told them. It just felt right. The people didn't go after the girls. They were after me. When I turned to face them, I saw two drunkards in their early forties coming towards me. I acted like noting happened, until they got close and brought out their knives. I jumped up and then back into the crowd, hoping to throw them off my track. It didn't work so well. They kept chasing me. I ran and ran. Going through alleys and back roads. I sensed familiar auras ahead, the ones from Fairy Tail. Natsu's wasn't there, he went somewhere yesterday morning and hasn't come back. I decided to run towards there, hoping that they could help me.
*End flashback*
I got closer to the guild, I'm not a member, but I don't know how I'd or we'd, be able to become members. The girls have gotten better with the transformation spell. I don't want to use my magic or else they might get seriously hurt. I was really close to the guild, when one of the two chasing me threw a dagger. I dodged it and kept running. I cast my thoughts out to the members inside of Fairy Tail, hoping they would hear me. 'Help! Someone help me!' I thought out to them in distress. I got outside of the guild when the other person threw their dagger and hit the back of my leg. "AHHHHHHH!!!!!!" I screamed. I fell in front of the doors, then they opened. Out came a short man with white hair. "So, are you the child that cried out?" he asked. "Y-yes." I said weakly. "My friends are near. They're right over in the ally way across from here." I told him. All the while fighting the pain in my leg. "Alright then, can you call them after I deal with these ruffians?" he asked. "Y-yes." I told him.
He went over towards the people and they started to tremble. "Oh dang it! It's Fairy Tail's master! Makarov the Giant!" one of them shouted. "L-let's g-get out of h-here!" the other shouted. They ran away and Makarov didn't have to do anything but show his face. 'It's okay girls, you can come out. This man is nice.' I thought to them before I passed out.
Galaxia's POV
After Sora told us to come out, we went over near her and the man. Sora was passed out and bleeding from her leg. The cause being one of the evil men's dagger. we all went over to her. "Are you her friends?" the man asked. "Yes, we are." I told him. "Bring her in and follow me." he told us. "Alright." I told him. I motioned for the others to come over. Kaen and I picked her up from the front while Yuki and Kaze got her legs. Chikyu was trying to stop the bleeding. We were led through the guild hall but no one paid attention to it as we were led to an infirmary. The man called someone in and said that they were one of the medics here. In came someone who said that they knew how to help. We all stepped back and went to some chairs and fell asleep. When we woke up, the person was gone, Sora's leg was bandaged, and she was face-up. We were all so relieved. We moved some chairs around the bed she was on and sat near her, not talking. The man from before came in with the person that helped Sora. "How is she doing?" he asked. "She'll be fine. She should wake up soon." The person said. "Thanks Mira. You go back now." the man said. "Alright master." she said. "Thanks for your help." we all said to her. "It was no trouble." the lady said. She left and there was only us and the man.
"Who are you?" Yuki asked the man. "My name is Makarov Dreyar, and I am the master of this guild." the man said. "And who might you all be?" he asked us. "My name is Galaxia. The one with orange hair is Kaen. The one with white hair is Yuki. The one with yellow hair is Kaze. The one with brown hair is Chikyu. And the one that is sleeping right now is Sora Nova. Our friend." I told him. "Hmm, when she wakes up, call for me." the man told us. "Ok." I told him.
Sora's POV
It's dark. Dark and quiet. 'Where am I?' I wonder. I see a man, surrounded by black. "Who are you?" I call out. "You know me" the man said with a hint of sadness in his voice. "Zeref" I say, not much of a question. "Nice to see that you remember me." he said. "How could I forget," I tell him. "You almost made me die. How could I forget that?" I ask. "I didn't mean to, I just realized what was going on once the dragon landed, then I backed off." he said. "So, what do you want? I know about the deal that you made with the dragons." I tell him. "Oh, so they told you? You must also know that I want to die, and that Natsu is my strongest Etherious and my younger brother and that I want him to kill me." he said. "I do. I won't interfere with that, but I will also try to kill you myself for what happened to my home. I bear no grudge towards you for that, but I also don't want your death to be on Natsu's hands." I tell him. "Oh, I look forward to it, Sora Nova." Zeref said with a smile. He disappeared and I was left in the dark.
Then a creature appeared, and it was terrifying. I screamed and then everything went black and then turned to light. I heard someone calling for me. "Sora" the voice said. 'I know this voice. It was the one who saved me. Mom.' I thought to myself. I was starting to wake up. "Sora" another voice said. 'It was the one who also taught me magic. Dad.' I thought to myself.
I woke up to bright lights, my throbbing leg, and five worried faces over me. "Hello, girls." I say with a smile. "Sora!" they shout and hug me. "Hey, I'm not dead. But I will be if you don't release me from this hug. I'm going to suffocate!" I told them. "Sorry." they replied. "It's fine." I told them. "You were muttering stuff in your sleep. We couldn't hear, but you had this scared look on your face." Chikyu said. "I'm fine. It was just a nightmare." I told her. "Where are we, by the way?" I asked. "We're in Fairy Tail's infirmary room. You passed out after you told us to come out. Then a short man led us in here and we put you on the bed. A nice lady came in and stopped the bleeding and wrapped your wound." Yuki explained. "Ok. My leg is still throbbing, but not much." I tell them. Then my stomach growls. Then I hear their stomachs growl after hearing mine. We all laugh. "Sir! She's up." I heard an unknown voice say outside of the door. "Alright. I'll be right there." said a familiar voice in response.
In came the old man who saved me and a woman with white hair. "Hello child. Nice to see you up." the man said. "Thank you for saving me. I'm grateful." I told the man. "So, is she the one everyone heard, master?" the woman asked. "She is Mira. I don't know how, but she did." the man said. "Sir?" I asked. "What child?" he responded. "Do you know someone by the name of 'Natsu Dragneel'? I came here to Magnolia to find him." I asked. "I do. He is one of the guild members." the man explained. "Is he here?" I asked. "He is. He got back from a job he went out on not that long ago." he said. "Could I see him?" I asked. "Sure." the man said. "Natsu! Come here!" the man shouted outside the door. 'How loud can this man get?' I wondered to myself. "Coming Gramps!" I heard a somewhat familiar voice replied. 'Natsu, now I can finally see him.' I thought to myself with glee.
"What do you want Gramps?" the salmon headed mage asked. "This girl says that she came to Magnolia to see you." the man said. The salmon headed mage turned to look at me. I saw recognition in his eyes that disappeared fast. "Do I know you? You seem, familiar." the salmon headed mage asked. "I'll give you a clue. You asked a blue-haired girl for a fight but she declined, saying that the next time that you meet that she would battle you." I told him. "AH! You're that girl from that time! The one who flew in with a dragon!" he exclaimed. "You mean to tell me that she is a Dragon Slayer like you, Natsu?" the lady named Mira asked. "You guessed it." I told her. "Long time no see, Natsu." I told him with a smile. "Right! Long time no see, Sora!" he said happily. "So, where is your cat, Natsu?" I asked him, shocking everyone in the room except the girls next to me. "He's in the main hall, entertaining our newest member." Natsu explained. I sensed a new aura out there, one that seemed to contrast against the others. "So, do you have one?" Natsu asked. "I do, but she isn't a cat." I explained with a laugh. "So, where is she?" Natsu asked. "You're looking at her." Galaxia said, standing up.
"So wait. You're telling us that you're cat isn't a cat but a human?" Natsu asked. "No, I'm not a human or a cat." Galaxia explained, anger clear in her voice. She undid the transformation. Once the smoke cleared Galaxia was back in her original form. "Nice to see you in your original form, Galaxia." I told her. She jumped into my lap. "It's nice to be in this form again." she said with glee. "So, what is she?" Natsu asked. "She is a fox. And a cute one at that." I told him while hugging Galaxia. "So, are your companions also not human?" Mira asked. "Yes, but I'm not having them reveal their true forms now. People would get scared." I told her. "Would you like to become one of the members here? Everyone is like family." the man offered. 'A family.' I thought to myself. Tears started to fall down my face and everyone one turned to try and find out why I was crying. "It's nothing." I tell them as I wipe away the tears. "I would love to become a member. " I told the man. "Mira, go and grab the stamp please." the man told her. "Sorry. I've introduced myself to your companions but not you. I'm the guild master of Fairy Tail, Makarov Dreyar. They told me your name, but please introduce yourself. You should also introduce yourself to everyone once you're feeling up to it." the man said. "Thanks Master Makarov. My name is Sora Nova. I'm a Dragon Slayer, but the magic I know will remain a secret until my fight with Natsu, once I'm feeling better." I told them.
Mira got back with the stamp. "Have them go first." I said gesturing to my friends. "Alright. How about you with the orange hair. Where do you want it and in what color." Mira asked Kaen. "My name is Kaen and I would like it on my exposed shoulder in white." Kaen told her. Mira placed the stamp in the pad then put it on Kaen's shoulder. "Done." she said and pulled the stamp away. "Next." Mira said. "Me. I'm Yuki and I would like it on the back of my neck in orange." Yuki explained. Mira did the same thing with Kaen and pulled away. "Next." she said. "Me. I'm Kaze and I would like it on my right leg in brown." Kaze said as she pulled up her short leg. The same process happened. "Next." Mira said. "Me. I'm Chikyu and I would like it on my left leg in yellow." Chikyu said as she pointed to where she wanted it. "I guess that I'm next." Galaxia said. She transformed into her human form. "I want it on my right shoulder blade in black." Galaxia said as she pulled up her shirt. "Now it's my turn." I say as I get up. I stumbled a little, but was able to walk over towards Mira. "I would like to have mine on my stomach area in purple." I told her as I lifted my shirt up. "Done" she said. "Welcome to Fairy Tail!" Makarov said. "Glad to be here!" my companions and I say.
