It's been 6 years since Jaune and Neo Joined the Guild. The first year they were there they stuck to the easy jobs in the city or surrounding forest while they trained. A lot of it was repairing the damages that the older guild members caused. But still they didn't mind, thanks to that the two of them got to know quite a few people around town.

As for the guild itself. The two of them couldn't be happier with their new home. He got along well with just about everyone he became really close to the Strauss siblings, although he dared not take a side whenever Mira and Erza got into a fight.

The two of them would often drag him into it anyways ended with him begrudgingly taking a side and receiving the cold shower from the other one.

Eventually they started to take more dangerous jobs and quickly made a reputation as Fairy Tail least destructive duo... for their first couple of jobs that is. They took almost every job together and the partnerships spoke for itself. But as they're magical abilities improved and yhey started using more powerful spells...well things just kinda happened.

Jaunes light Magic quickly improved thanks to Master Makarov help Jaune new quite a few spells now and he recently discovered that he could Requip as well. Not to the same extent as Erza, his Requip magic takes several seconds longer than his Red haired friend. He actually owned a few pieces of Armour and some regular clothes. But only had two weapons at the moment.. There was a pair of gloves that increased his Physical strength.

And of course his mother's sword. Crocrea Morse. He hadn't used it yet though the blade was enchanted and wouldn't be wielded by anyone. If the blade didn't deem the holder worthy it would stay trapped in its sheath. But Jaune didn't care about using it as a weapon. It was the only thing he had left from his family. Even if he couldn't use it he would always hold onto it.

Neo herself had gotten better using solid script, she could use it to communicate seamlessly. She was able to create traps and call on almost any element. She could even heal minor injuries. In truth the limits to her magic where only her imagination. Although she needed time to cast those spells luckily Neo wasn't just a pretty face, She was incredibly acrobatic and carried around a enchanted umbrella that had a long thin blade hidden inside. She was able to multitask effortlessly beating the crap out of anything that dared to go up against her and cast spells at the same time.

Jaune was now 13 and stood at 5'3 and wore a black sleeveless vest over a white shirt and long worn out Jeans and black leather boots.

He was currently standing In Front of the job board looking for an interesting job to take. He sighed looking across the board, most of these jobs were go kill something and comeback. And they didn't pay that well. The highest paying one he saw on the board today was 19,000 Jewels. He was about to just go and hang out in the guild when a new request was added.

Urgent protect the Clover field bridge.

The bridge connecting Oshibana station and the town of clover field was recently destroyed by several earthquakes in the area. Construction of the new bridge has been delayed due to raids by gangs and a possible Dark guild. Several workers have also been taken hostage and are being held somewhere near clover canyon.

Defeat the Raiders and save those workers, and protect the construction of the new bridge.

Requester: Tom overseer of the bridge construction.

Reward(payment from the Heartfilia Konzern ) :891,000 +10 train tickets to any destination.

Jaune immediately grabbed the job request and ran over to the bar.

"Neo we got a job." he said Neo swiveled around on a stool at the bar. She had her hair tied into a ponytail tail and was wearing a white vest over a brown and pink striped shirt and white pants. Leaning against the bar next to her was a umbrella.

"What's the job?"

"Hehe your favorite crush the bad guys." Jaune held up the job Request and neo quickly read it a twinkle coming to her eyes.

Neo jumped up and hugged Jaune.

"Well she's certainly in a good mood." Cana stepped forward "What's got her so pumped?"

"I just got this job here." Jaune held up the job Request and Cana whistled.

"Oh sweet mind if I tag along? I kinda need some extra Jewels."

"...What happened?"

"I may have accidentally destroyed a dudes house during the last mission I was on." Cana shrugged and Jaune rubbed his forehead. He had no idea how everyone else in the guild caused so much collateral damage seriously even on jobs that only involved waiting they found a way to destroy something...granted he wasn't one talk. He's destroyed just as much as anyone else in the guild...maybe just a tad more. Jaune nodded his head, he owed Cana for a job they went on a few weeks ago it was time to make good on that.

"Alright so it's a three way split so the 891,000 Jewels will be cut down to 297,000 each and you will get two of those tickets deal." Jaune said and Cana grinned and wrapped an arm around his neck and gave him a peck on the cheek. Causing the poor boys face to turn beat red. He was very weak to flirting sadly, and canna took full advantage of that.

"Thanks Jaune I knew I could count on you I'll meet you guys at the train station."

Cana ran off and Jaune sighed. Neo snickered silently and went back to reading a book at the bar.

A few hours later.

Jaune, Neo and Cana stepped into Oshibana station. There they rented a magic mobile and drove down the tracks to the construction site.

When they arrived the place looked abandon, construction equipment and rafters laid out and ready for use but there wasn't a single worker there except for the overseer. The overseer was a large man but he was covered in bandages and his left arm was in a cast.

"You must be the Wizards from Fairy tail, I'm Tom, I'm really glad you came."

"Hello Tom I'm Jaune this is Neo and Canna before we get started do you mind if I ask a few questions?" Jaune Pulled Out a pencil and notebook.

"By all means please do."

"Ok first question how many workers where captured?"

"10. They're being held hostage in their camp it's about. 8 Miles east through the canyon."

"What did they do during the raids?"

"They destroy the tracks our equipment, beat up anyone that fights back, takes one or two men hostage then leave."

"and the direction they attacks from the east as well?"

"Yes."

"Alright don't worry we can get your men back and protect you."

"Thank you."

The three of them looked around the area and Jaune came up with a way to fortify the construction site.

"Alright here what I'm thinking. Neo uses her Rune magic to create traps around the area. While she's doing that me and Cana will go take a look at their camp and map it out from a distance, we reconvene here within 2 hours."

Neo pouted and crossed her arms.

"you better not fight them without me!"

"I won't make any promises~" he teased as he and Cana began their hike. It took them a while but eventually they found the bandits camp. It was a pretty small outfit only about 10 or so tents and a cage made out of magical energy at the center. They were sitting on a cliff overlooking the camp. He counted maybe 15-20 Bandits.

"Well ain't this a party."Canna said "Think we can just storm the camp?"

"...maybe." Jaune said drawing a sketch of the map on a notepad.

"First let's meet back up with Neo and then we'll come up with a plan." he gained a nod from his usual drunk friend before they both walked back to the construction site. There Neo was sitting on a crate a bored look on her face.

"Hey Neo how'd your end go?" he asked Neo merely snapped her fingers and the floor around them lit up. As taps appeared.

"ive set up 20 traps anyone who isnt in fairy tail will activate the trap and be unable to use any magic."

"Nice Job Neo." He sat down next to here. "Alright ghe way I see it we havd a fee says of taking these guys down. We can rush their camp, or free the prisoners stealth like and lure the bandits to our well placed traps."

"Lets just take them down."

"Gotta agree with short stack I think we can take them." Canna said getting a sigh from Jaune.

"You guys are forgetting about the hostages." Neo pouted and Canna had the decency to look sheepish. "I say we wait until tonight to attack. Ill sneak in and free the workers, you guys go wild."

"Oh I like Mission Jaune." Canna said getting a nod of agreement from Neo.
