Your P.O.V

Sigh~

I need to go to the guild today. I have to get myself some jobs. I'm running low on funds. I think I'll wear a beanie today instead of having my hood covering my face. I really just need to hide my hair, well the tips of it really. So tuck the ends of my hair into the beanie. Darn it. I need new clothes too. Oh and a hair cut to neaten up the unevenness.

Sigh~

This is gonna be a long day. Maybe I'll just take some simple requests. They shouldn't take too long. I'll grab a bite at the guild as well then, Master can put it on my tab. I grab my cloak and head out. The walk shouldn't be too long. 

Ahh. Good old Magnolia skies. Sometimes I really miss my dragon, Ryuu. The memories of us flying together with me on his back makes me so happy. I was so carefree but then he had to leave me. In a way that was a blessing, that way I ended up in Fairy Tail where I met Natsu and the rest. The perfect home for a lost little girl.

-Timeskip brought to you by Lucy and Natsu-

"Natsuuuu . . . you still haven't told me about (Y/n)!" complains Lucy as she watches Natsu inhale his breakfast.

Natsu looks at Lucy for a bit and then swallows his food.

"Well, Nee-San is an Elemental Dragon Slayer. She isn't my real sister though. When we were younger I found out she was a Dragon Slayer too and started calling her my Nee-San because she was older than me. Since then it stuck." Natsu answers.

"Woah! She must be incredibly strong then. What's with Gray and her? They don't seem to like each other." Lucy asks.

"She is powerful. She is the most powerful mage in Fairy Tail! And I don't know about them she has never told me." Natsu shrugs.

"If she was so strong how did she get kidnapped for 5 years, Flame Brain?" Gray interrupts, "She's actually weak and pathetic! Didn't you see how she treated you?"

Natsu gets angry and readies his flaming fists.

"Didn't I tell you to stop badmouthing my Nee-San?! I'm really going to beat your ass, Gray!"

"I'd like to see you try. Without the help of anyone here you can't beat me. You're pathetic just like your weak and pathetic Nee-San!"

Lucy looks very frightened. The temperature of the guild drops several degrees but of course the ice mage doesn't realize it. Everyone in the guild looks terrified.

"So come at me, Flame breath! Let's see how far you can get before I wh-," Gray gets cut off.

*craaaaaack*

Gray's head rams straight into the floor breaking the floorboards and is held firmly in place by some ice. He tries frantically to move his head.

"If I hear you badmouthing me or Dragneel ever again, Fullbuster, you are going to have a really painful life."

(Y/n) pulls Gray up by his head and throws him into one of the pillars. Gray drops to the floor. (Y/n) walks up to him, crouches down and yells,

"Do you hear me?!"

"Y-y-yes." stutters Gray.

Your P.O.V

Sheesh. That guy. If you want to insult me then just insult me and me only, don't go dragging other people in to it. I turn around and head towards the bar. Master is there sitting on the counter.

"(Y/n) . . ."

I look at him.

"I won't apologize, he deserved it. I won't take his shit. It's been years that I've tolerated his shit, it's time I retaliated."

Master looks like he wants to say something but he doesn't. I walk off to another bar stool further away. I sit down. A plate filled with eggs, bacon and two slices of buttered toast is placed in front of me. I pick up my fork.

"Can I get a choco-"

A mug of chocolate milk is set down. What?! I didn't even finish my sentence . . . can this person read my mind or something?! I look up with confusion written all over my face. It is Mirajane. My confused expression drops and a cold mask is in its place. Of course she knows what I want. She always ate breakfast with me when we were kids.

"You may have changed, (Y/n), but your taste in breakfast won't." She gives me one of her infamous closed eye smiles.

I try smiling back but I'm pretty sure it comes out more like a grimace. She walks away shortly after, it might've been my imagination but I'm pretty sure her cheeks were a little too pink . . . Was she sick or something?

-Timeskip brought to you by (Y/n) inhaling breakfast-

(Y/n) finishes her breakfast pretty quickly and downs her chocolate milk like Cana downing beer. She leaves some Jewels on the table and leaves to go look at the request board. A couple higher paying jobs are taken to get approved. She hopes it won't take too long. Unfortunately for (Y/n) it was Mirajane who is tasked with the job of approving missions.

"So you not taking a team with you?"

"You know I work alone."

(Y/n) walks off without another word towards the train station. Time to kick monster butt . . . After throwing up on the train. Maybe it would've been a better idea to walk?

***

Meanwhile back at the guild...

Natsu is looking at the job request board with Lucy. He wants to help pay Lucy's rent. They are looking for some of the higher paying jobs only to find none.

"Hey, Mira! Where'd all the nice jobs go? They were here yesterday . . ." yells Natsu across the guild.

"Natsu! Go to Mira don't yell." scolds Lucy.

So Lucy walks to Mirajane and repeats Natsu's question. Yes, Lucy went not Natsu.

"Oh! (Y/n) took most of them just now."

"Tsk. There she goes taking all our jobs. Now what? How we supposed to make money? Tsk. S-class mages should take S-Class quests. You see Flamebreath? She's too scared that she'd be way too weak for them. And really die this time." interrupts Gray once again.

This time Gray's flying adventure was caused by a Satan Soul Takeover, Fire Dragon's Iron Fist and some swords. Oh and a mug landed on him when he face planted. Lucy just stares. However she snaps out of it quickly.

"So Natsu why don't we go on multiple lower paying jobs? I'm sure that one or two would be able to pay my rent and fill your pocket . . ."

"Okay. I think that will work. Lucy, you're buying me and Happy food! Let's go Happy!"

"Aye, sir!" says the blue cat happily.

"How did this come to me buying you food?! Wait you morons, you didn't even choose jobs yet!" yells Lucy exasperatedly.

Mirajane hands Lucy a couple job requests that requires either a Celestial Mage or a Fire Mage. Lucy thanks Mirajane and then run off to get Natsu and Happy.

"Natsu! Happy! Wait up!"

The trio is later joined by Erza, who was tipped off by Mirajane that the two were heading off onto a quest. Poor Happy isn't counted as a person once again. Gray just never showed up, he is probably still recovering from his flying adventure. I guess that isn't a Team Natsu mission then.

-Timeskip brought to you by (Y/n) being sick on the train-

Your P.O.V

Now those were pretty easy. I'm glad I finished quicker than I thought. Now to catch the train back and then some shopping . . . I really need to get some medication for my motion sickness.

Sigh~

I stroll to the ticket booth. The ticket man looks at me strangely.

"Can I get a ticket to Magnolia, please?" I say as I hand over 500 jewel.

"Sure. Here ya go." he says.

What a strange man. Do I have something on my face? Surely not, I haven't eaten all day . . . This is gonna be a long ride, at least I don't think I'll throw up since I haven't eaten but the feeling of motion sickness is so bad. I don't like it. Gagging on nothing is not fun.

Some time later...

Still Your P.O.V

I'm so glad to get off that death trap people call trains. I'm gonna sit on that bench for a while. Get my breath back. I pull out my canteen and literally just shove water down my throat. Ahhhh. That feels great . . . very refreshing. Now I must go on my way. It looks about late afternoon, the sky is so pretty . . . Time to go shopping.

Sigh~

I walk into a clothing store. Hmmm. Now where are the plain shirts? Maybe I should ask for some help? Nah, too shy for that. Let me just walk around aimlessly until I find them . . .  Oooooh. That hoodie looks nice. I pick it up and inspect it. It is a plain black hoodie with a white stripe down the sleeves. Nice. I put that over my shoulder. 

I see some jeans next to the hoodies, obviously I grab a black pair. Then I think about getting the dark gray pair too, so I put that over my shoulder as well. Turning around I finally spot the shirts. I blindly grab about 5 of them that were slightly too big for me and made my way towards the cashier when I see the most sick looking jacket ever. So I take that too. Heh. 

Wait. I need a new coat too. I browse the shop quickly, only to be disappointed.

"Hey, I'll just take these. Thanks." I say to the cashier who seems to be dozing off.

"Huh? Oh right. Sure." she says while scanning them, "that'll be 50,000 jewel, please."

I hand her the money. She thanks me and bags up my purchase. I take the bag and walk out. Now I need to find a shop which specializes into coats . . . I carry on walking until something catches my eye. A weapons shop? Is this new? I had to go take a look! Although I can't wield weapons as well as Erza, I liked collecting them and sometimes practicing with them.

*Ding*

Ah. So the store has a bell . . . I walk over to the swords section. O.o . . . There was this really nice set of twin blades that looks easily concealable. I look around for the owner of the store.

"Hello? May I please buy the set of twin blades please?" I ask no one in particular.

"Of course!" the owner says popping out of nowhere, "Would you please come this way."

He picks up the twin blades and places them in their sheaths. I hand over the 150,000 jewels that is required to complete my purchase. He gives me the blades and I strap the one on my boot and the other under my shirt. I walk out the shop, maybe I'll keep these two on me. 

Now for that coat shop. I walk further into Magnolia, getting closer to the guild. People are still moving out of my way because of my damn aura. Come on guys I won't hurt ya if ya don't hurt me . . . Now lets see, I think it's a left from here and the coat shop should be in my view. Ah ha! There it is. I push the door open.

*Dink*

Great another bell. A man walks up to me.

"Hello, ma'am. How may I help you today?" he asks politely despite the fact that I can see him shaking.

"I'm looking for a new coat." I say calmly trying not to scare the poor guy.

"Okay then. Follow me." he leads me to some nicer looking coats, "These are more befitting for a wizard don't you think?"

"Mhm." I say not bothering to pay him much attention while browsing the coats.

This one catches my eye:

(Like this but more loose at the sides, not defining the body shape. Just hanging.)

I point towards the coat and tell him I'll take it. He quickly takes the coat down and bags it for me while I pull out the 200,000 jewel I owe him. I pick the bag up adding to my bag collection and walk out. Time to grab a bite to eat, let's head back to the guild.

-Timeskip brought to you by Freed chasing after Laxus-

Meanwhile at the guild...

Magic, people, mugs and tables are thrown everywhere. Gray and Natsu had gotten into one of their infamous fights and in time the whole guild was dragged into it. Elfman is screaming about being a man as he charges at someone. Mirajane is casually cleaning glasses. Erza hasn't joined the fight yet as she is enjoying a slice of Strawberry Cake. 

Surprisingly no one has managed to ruin her moment. Cana is chugging alcohol on the barstool while watching the mess and avoiding flying objects. Gray and Natsu are arguing pretty hectically.

"Give up, Flamebrain!" taunts Gray, "You're never gonna beat someone like me with your pathetic fire."

"Shut up, Underwear Boy!" retorts Natsu, "Your ice can't stand against my will."

"Pfft. Your fire is weak! Just like you." adds Gray.

"You want me to come over and show you exactly how strong I am?!" bellows Natsu.

Gray yells back, "Come on then, Slanty Eyes!"

Natsu charges at Gray. Gray smirks.

"Fullbuster, your clothes." comes a bored voice.

"What?!" He cries as he looks down.

Too bad. Natsu right hooks him in the jaw and then begins to suck in air,

"Fire Dragon's Roar!"

Gray quickly puts an ice shield up. The fire hits dead on center but disperses to the sides of the  shield, rendering the attack useless. He looks around for the culprit that caused him to get a right hook to the jaw. He sees them at the bar ordering something.

"Can I get a shot, please?"

"You can have a shot of this!" yells Gray, "Ice Make: Hammer!"

A hammer made of ice appears above the dude ordering a shot. The hammer rears back getting ready to strike down, by this time the entire guild is watching the fight.

"Armor Dragon's Shield"

A dragon scale shield appears above the culprit. However before the hammer even touches the shield, it shatters into pieces. The culprit turns back to accept their drink after waving the shield away.

"Dragon Slayer?!" mutters Gray.

"Oi! You must be strong fight me!" challenges Natsu, "Wait . . . *sniff* you smell familiar . . ."

"Wait. Hold up" interjects Gray, "Who the hell are you?"

The guy starts to lift their hood.
