Chapter 7 - Fairy 7: Fairy Tail, and Monster Sighting – Part 2

Calla Village, it is a place that Makarov knew very well.

It is village that Precht Gaebolg, the Second Guild Master, as well the former Guild Master of Fairy Tail once visited and even did some research near that village.

If Makarov's memories served him right, the place was in that forest right next to Calla, a shack, or was it a cabin? That has been built for Precht when he was still the Guild Master, and Makarov himself, was just another member of their guild.

It is no wonder, why Makarov who recalled about his old friend and mentor, turned serious. When he read the report and request from the Calla Village, that a Monster or Monsters has been sighted. Or least signs of them.

Makarov took mission details in hand, wondering should he go there himself. Or send one of the kids over there. But as he is wondering about this, something loud was heard outside his office, causing a sigh to leave this old man's lips.

"GRAY!!!"

Makarov shown a deadpan look on his face, as he realised who this voice belongs to.

How can he not? How can he not realise this voice?

"YOU DAMNED LIZARD!!"

And yet, of course, there also that voice as well. Also another familiar voice to Makarov, as he felt like hiding in a hole, not wanting to go outside his office.

But another loud clash was heard, and something even heavily knocked on the door to his office, causing Makarov to feel the energy inside his body drained, as he took yet another sigh, before walking towards the door of his office.

And what lies behind the door?

That should be the first floor of the Fairy Tail Building, a place that should look similar to a large lunch hall… however, flames and ice danced, along with a boy with pink hair, and one with black hair, was duking it out… yet again.

Yes, yet again.

"It's Dragon! Dragon! Not Lizard you damned Gray!!" Went a certain pink haired brat, whose black eyes narrowed, before flames coated his left hand, as he punches towards the half-naked brat, who throws his jacket aside, while avoiding the flaming fist, and places his hands together, only to create a bat made of ice, and swung it at the pink haired boy.

"Who cares it is Lizard or Dragon! Why did you have to burn my food!?" Went the brat, who seems to be called Gray, who misses the head of the pink haired punk, who then counterattacked Gray by sending him a kick, sending Gray flying and smashing into a wooden table.

'That goes another 10,000…'

Makarov thought, wondering if this is a bad habit to have, to knew how much these tables that always break, costs by heart?

"I CARE!! Dragon! Dragon! I am a Dragon Slayer, Gray! And what wrong warming your food!? I was worried your ice might cool it down!" Went the pink haired brat, grinning at Gray, who pushes off the wooden table fragments over his body.

"Warming? When warming food means turning it into damned charcoal, Natsu!?" Gray went, as he throws a piece of wood of the wooden table that he landed into, right back at Natsu, who kicked the incoming wood, but didn't expect, a fist to slammed into his face!

Makarov looked at Gray who managed to punched Natsu by using the table fragment to hide himself, allowing him to punched Natsu right in the face, that sent the flying pink haired punk across the room, slamming into a wall… and even cracking and ruining the paint on the wall.

'Oh, 2,000… plus 1,000 to paint over it…'

It wasn't just the cost of tables Makarov knew by heart.

He knew every single cost of repairs there is, when it comes to the guild… isn't this bad?

Makarov wondered, while carrying on watching as Gray created iced pole with his ice related Magic, only to throws the pole right at Natsu.

Who in return, grinned like a fool, only for flames to come from his mouth, melting the icy staf Before he begin to laugh like a fool for some reason, as he pointed at Gray.

Of course, anyone could see this is just provocation.

And did it work?

It worked like a charm.

As Gray uses his magic, Ice Make, to create a huge hammer, that he used to swing and throw the damned heavy looking thing towards Natsu, who got hit by it, and slammed into the ground!

'And that's going to be 5,000… no, wasn't it 5500 Jewels now?'

And yes, Makarov's knowledge on repair costs, also has the up-to-date option as well, you know?

Seriously why do these brats like to destroy his guild so much? Or even the town, or beyond the Magnolia?

Who do they think repays for their foolish actions? Who they think those damned fools from the Magic Council bark to, when a house or two levels down?

And also why are the adults in this guild, just sitting by, drinking their beer and ale, while treating this like they are watching a show?

"Oh Natsu! Go!!"

"I bet 1,000 Jewels Gray wins this time around."

"Oh, really? I bet 10,000 on Natsu then!"

"Like hell, you have this much left from all that drinking!"

"Hahaha, you are right!"

Makarov cannot help to roll his eyes at these older brats of his. Watching and betting on those two young brats destroying his guild.

And they call themselves adults?

Shouldn't they step in, as you know, as adults?

"What about you master, who you think will win?" Hearing his title from these fools, Makarov turned his eyes towards the guild member who said this.

Of course, as the responsible old wise man like himself, he is different to these fools, these older brats, who just drink and watch this chaos unfold.

So, of course, his answer will be…

"Gray."

Makarov simply went, as this was a matter of facts. It not because he said this because felt left out, not at all! He is not that kind of person, who feels such things.

Nor did he say Gray will win, solely because at the moment, his damages only cost him 8,500 Jewels to repair what has been done to the guild.

Or it was until Makarov watches Gray slamming Natsu into two tables himself… as it is now 28,500… damned it! He cannot take back his bet, damned it!

"Oh~ Is master also betting on Gray as well?"

A voice sounded above Makarov, causing the old man to look up, and have his eyes widen knowing who just said that.

Of course, he wasn't shocked at all, seeing a blue cat, a blue cat that is nothing compared to the blue cat that can talk. But that also nothing, if you throw those angel like wings behind the cat, the reason why the blue talking cat can fly around.

No, the real reason why Makarov was shock, because he knew who this cat is, because of that, he didn't expect the cat…

"Why are you betting on Gray, Happy??"

Makarov askes, knowing the relationship between the blue cat and Natsu is not a simple one, they are more than just pet and owner, or partners, their bounds are as thick as glue, how can Happy betrayed Natsu (His father), over Gray?

"Natsu… he-he burnt my fish!" Happy cryingly went, leaving Makarov deadpan hearing this, he should have expected, he is a very loyal cat… until fish is involved. No, wait a moment…

"What you mean he burnt your fish? He burned your food as well?" Makarov went, he can understand with Gray, why Natsu will do something like that.

But to Happy? Of course, what Happy said next, almost made Makarov fall to the ground.

"Hmm? No, sir! Natsu burned the fish on Gray's plate! He should give it to me before he burns it!" Happy went with true sadness… it wasn't even his fish to begin with.

Makarov shakes his head and pretends he didn't see the sadness on Happy's face, over the fact of a fish that wasn't his own has been burnt to ashes.

Instead, his eyes returned back to the two brats, Natsu Dragneel, and Gray Fullbuster, who for some reason, decided to stop using Magic, properly running low on Magic Power. And used their fists instead.

Makarov knew this not going to end any time soon, which is why he sighed, knowing it up to him to get those two brats to behave yet again.

However, when he was about to use his Giant Magic to grabbed the two fools who are destroying his guild.

The door leading outside the guildhall and the guild itself, opened, causing everyone, besides two certain fools, to look towards the front door of their guild.

The moment Makarov saw who entered through the door, a smile formed on his lips, especially now when he knew he doesn't have to step in any longer.

Of course, he also didn't comment or care about the fact, the moment when this person came in the guildhall, everyone besides the two idiots playing wrack an idiot with each other. Became completely silent for very obvious reasons.

As for who walked into the guild?

Is a young beautiful lass that is around 15 years old. She has long red hair, and brown eyes, that narrowed, seeing the state of the guildhall has become.

Besides her age and beauty, another thing that stood out about this lass, is what she wearing are mostly not just clothes, but actual armour as well. Making her appear more of a knight, than a Wizard, even if the person in question, is a Wizard herself.

To be fair, only part of her that not armoured will be her face, and her lower body, that has a blue skirt. Even so, everything is armoured about this teenager, who slowly walked towards the two idiots, still playing wrack an idiot with each other, with a fairly serious expression on her face.

Of course, as the lass walked towards the two idiots, Natsu and Gray. Her brown eyes also locked with the adults, who none of them dared to look into those brown eyes of hers. Some even tried to sneakily leave the guildhall, causing Makarov to sighed, noticing the same brown eyes also looked at him.

Unlike those older brats that ran with their tails between their legs. Makarov smiled and nodded at the newcomer lass, who also weaken her serious expression for a moment, and as well nodded at Makarov in understanding.

"Natsu, Natsu!" Happy, the very cat, that was willing to betrayed Natsu due to burning fish that wasn't his own to begin with. Rushed to Natsu, trying to warn Natsu about the incoming threat.

"Happy it is no use. You knew what he is like, when he gets into it."

A gentle and warm young voice sounded behind Happy, causing both Makarov and Happy to looked towards someone he didn't notice in the guildhall until now.

And this someone else, is young lass who is the same age as Natsu, who still duking it out with Gray.

The young lass in question, has beautiful semi-long white hair, and clear blue eyes that looked at the red haired lass who slowly walking towards the two idiots, that hasn't noticed the incoming danger they are actually in.

"Welcome back, Erza." Went the young lass with white hair, who greeted the armoured lass, who turned her brown eyes, that once soften when she looked at the white haired lass.

Of course, as soon the white haired young lass said that, both Gray and Natsu who was duking it out, halted their punches and kicks in mid-air.

Their faces became pale, as they didn't want to acknowledge the incoming threat behind of them. But even so, they slowly begin to move, like stiffed broken golems, turning their eyes to the sharp brown eyes that is still looking at them.

Of course, Makarov watched this in amusement, sitting by as a bystander, letting these brats deal with this problem themselves… while he cleans up the bill it will cost to the guild.

"It is good to be back, Lisanna… however, it seems I have to teach these two a lesson, when I just came back." Went the red haired lass, or Erza Scarlet her name truly is.

Who now stood before the frozen statues known as Gray and Natsu, who clearly trying to find a way out of this incoming disaster.

However, that is just a pipe dream, anyone in this guild knows that. But even so, they wouldn't be called idiots, if these two brats didn't try a way out, wouldn't they?

"O-Oh Ezra… you are back!!" Natsu went a forced smile, as fear could be felt from his quivering voice. He hasn't even realised, he called Erza's name wrongly as well.

"Y-Yeah, w-welcome back Erza… H-How your mission went…?" The half-naked Gray went, trying to play it cool. However, the usually laid back brat, unless provoked by Natsu, cannot help but fail to control his persona.

"Yeah, it went with no problem." Erza went, folding her arms, not once turning her brown eyes away from these two fools, it is no wonder why their faces became even more paler.

"T-That is wonderful, r-right, my friend?" Gray went with a forced grin, as he pulled Natsu by the shoulder like old friends.

Of course, Natsu wanted to send a fist of flames towards the ice guy. But he didn't, noticing Gray's side eyes meant.

"Hahaha, you right Gray! I don't know what I heard, but you are right!"

What you expect from an idiot? Is what Makarov wanted to ask Gray, who looked in shock, seeing Natsu's response like that.

As for Erza who heard all of this nonsense? When it was her thing, to listen to rumbling of fools? Which is why Erza grabbed onto the only table around them that not been destroyed and lift it effortlessly with one arm.

Natsu, Gray, and even Makarov, yes even himself, has a look of horror knowing what will come next. Of course, his reasons are different compared to the two brats, that about to meet their sealed fates.

"DON'T CAUSE TROUBLE FOR THE GUILD!!"

With a battle cry, Erza smashes the table with greater force more compared to the two idiots combined, smashing them across the guildhall, into the other tables that hasn't been destroyed, and even through the wall.

Makarov stared at the several shattered tables… and the two Natsu and Gray shaped holes in the wall with a blank look.

'345,800… WHY IS YOUR REPAIR COST IS HIGHER!!!??' Makarov roared in his mind, as Erza not only stopped the fools from fighting and ruining his guildhall.

But she even made it worse in one blow!

Well, in the end, it is his own fault entrusting something so simple to these brats… why is he too soft?

These damned brats!

 

 

 

###################################################################

That is the last chapter… just kidding.

It is actually the last chapter or fairy that will be posted today.

Next week onwards, I will post one Fairy per day (Not weekends) until the end of this first volume… as of now, it is 32 Faries, but I hasn't fully edited the chapters yet

(More like they are ready, but needed to be spilt apart)

I hoped I did Makarov right, as well Natsu and Gray, and Erza as well. I am worrying if I done them right, since I basing their personality on what I can remember from years ago from the anime canon, and fandom as well.

Anyway, thanks for reading this.

And I hope I don't ruin this… (Knowing me, I might~)
