Screeching of metal against metal was heard and sparks were seen as a train came to a stop. The train doors opened and crowds hurriedly bustled out. The train was starting to fill up quickly again and before it did a cloaked figure walked off with a slight sigh. The figure walked past a sign with a slight drag in their feet. The sign read in big bold letters.

HARGEON

The figure looked around for a moment and sat down on a bench. The figure leaned back and sighed loudly, it's tone taking on a depressed one as it began to speak. "Man Igneel! Where are you!" The figure stood up and slammed the side of its clenched fist into the wall. A crater was formed where it connected and the figure sighed again. "It really has been too long." A low growl was heard and the figure clutched its stomach. "Man, I'm hungry!" The figure made its way into the more populated part of the city and looked around. They ended up in a small Cafe. The cafe was quiet.

The figure sat down in a booth at the farthest end of the building. They put their hands on the table, revealing that one of them had a steel gauntlet. A busty blonde woman in a maids costume made her way to the table. The woman had blonde pigtails and chocolate brown eyes. Her skin was a pale but brilliant color and she was walking with nervousness. She addressed the figure with a shaky tone. "H-Hello my name is L-Lucy. What can I get f-for you today?" The figure unstrapped its gauntlet and it disappeared in a bright flash of white.

"Can I have a water for now?" The woman introduced as Lucy nodded in a hasty manner. "Of course sir." The figure smiled under it's cloak. "Thank you Lucy." Lucy left with a quick paste and jumpy steps. The figure sighed and reached up, pulling its hood down. The figure was a man with tanned skin. He had a large mop of spiky pink locks and he had deep green, almost black eyes. The figure rolled it's sleeves up. Lucy arrived back just in time to see the reveal. The tray she was carrying tilted toward the man and the glass of water she had brought him spilled all over him.

Lucy developed a blush and she was quick to apologize. "I'm so sorry!" She picked up a napkin. "Let me help you!" He sighed and held up his hand. He was unfazed by the cold water and had a small frown on his face. "That won't be necessary Lucy." He started to resonate with heat and the water turned to steam. He stood up and began to walk out. She grabbed him by the arm. "S-sir! Let me make it up to you! I'll give you something on the house!" The man smiled. "It's fine." He gained a look of questioning toward the blonde waitress. "If you could help me that would be great, I'm looking for a 'Salamander'.

Her eyes widened. "O-Of course sir! S-Salamander is rumored to be in town right now! He should be around the port, getting ready for his yacht party later tonight." The man smiled and shook her hand gently. "Thank you very much Lucy, I appreciate the useful information." She nodded hastily. "Of course sir! Is there anything else I can get you?" He smirked. "Actually, can I have some pancakes?" Her eyes widened. "Yes sir!' She saluted in a humorous fashion and the man sat back down. "And put it in a to go container please." She nodded hastily again and he smiled. His eyes widened as a the doors to the Cafe opened.

A woman walked in. The woman by far more gorgeous than anyone he had everyone he had ever seen. She had scarlet red back length hair, bright brown eyes, and fair perfect skin. She was on the more 'Defined' Side. She wore a blouse under a breastplate, with a Heart Cruiz logo on the front. She had a blue skirt that went down to mid-thigh, a pair of knee high black stockings, and metal boots. To top it all off she had gauntlets on that had hearts. He made sure to keep his nose tilted up slightly.

Lucy made her way over. "My name is Lucy, what can I do for you today?" The woman a had a seat in the booth in front of him and was sitting so that they could freely look at eachother. After finishing her order she placed her hands on the table and her gauntlets disappeared. The man's eyes widened. 'A requip magic? That requips armor?' That's when he spotted the logo on her shoulder. 'Fairy Tail?' Lucy came out with his container of pancakes and unbeknownst to him the Scarlet haired woman had started to stair with a small blush on her face. The man stood up and directed his gaze at her. She looked away. He smiled and left the Cafe.

"God! I've never seen such a perfect woman in my life!" He yelled as he slowly made his way to the docs. The drag of his feet was long gone and he had already eaten his pancakes by the time he had reached the docks. He looked around and spotted a large crowd of girls. He could hear their yelling and fan girling from where he was. He didn't see a dragon. "Well, should've see that coming. I mean, why the hell would a dragon throw a yacht party?" He sighed and shrugged. "Well, it was worth a shot." He made his way to the group and he came up with an idea. He found a piece of paper.

"S-Salamander!" He yelled shakily and burst through the group. "Can I have your autograph?" It was a man wearing a velvet cape. He had a tattoo on his face and black eyes. He had blue hair and a cocky smirk. "Of course! What would your name be?" The area grew heated. "My name?" The man chuckled and Salamander began to sweat. "My name is Salamander!" The man grabbed the fake Salamander by the shirt collar and pulled him closer before delivering a jaw shattering punch to the man's face. The man skidded on his back before slowly standing up and wiping his chin of all the blood.

"Y-You Bastard!" The fake Salamander yelled and the man advanced. "How dare you!?" He yelled and he jumped back. He started to float. A purple flame came into existence and he stood on it. "Purple Typhoon!" He yelled and a large whirlpool of purple fire consumed the man. The fake Salamander laughed victoriously. His eyes widened as he heard chewing and slurping sounds. "W-What the!?" The fire disappeared and the man's stomach grew comically big before shrinking back down. "Thanks for the meal! But you really need to work on the taste, it tasted pretty bad!" The man then jumped and grabbed the fake Salamander by the face, slamming him into the ground hard enough to leave him in a crater.

The fake Salamander stood up shakily and gasped for air. The real Salamander reared his hand back. "Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!" His fist burst into flames and he delivered a punch to the impersonator's chest, sending him flying across town and into the bell tower. The bell rang and the real Salamander sighed. He then felt the cold steel of a sword point in the back of his neck. He froze for a moment and sniffed the air. It was the same woman from the Cafe. Salamander's cloak glowed for a moment before it disappeared. Under the cloak he was wearing white baggy pants, sandals, a black open vest with gold trimming, and a scaly scarf. The dragon slayer slowly turned around. He looked the woman in her chocolate eyes with his green ones.

"Hey there." He said with unexplainable cheerfulness in his voice. He then grinned widely. This distracted the woman for a moment. He saw the blush that adorned her cheeks and took this moment of weakness to jump back and smirk. "Don't go for falling for the enemy now Scarlet. That won't do." He then put a finger up and waved it cockily. "How do you know my name!?" She yelled at him. "Name? I was just saying that because of your hair." Her eyes widened as her thoughts took a dark turn to a certain blue haired man. "Shut up!" She yelled at him and jumped at him, sword in hand.

Salamander was surprised at her speed but managed to dodge it nonetheless. Her spun around her and swept her leg, making her fall forward and he reared his head back, his mouth filling up with massive flames. "Fire Dragon's…" The woman's eyes widened and in a bright flash she changed into a set of orange and black armor with her hair in pigtails. Her sword took on a blue hue however as she slashed at him, sending a torrent of water. "Requip! Fire Empress Armor!" Salamander's eyes widened and in a last resort he let loose a breath attack, evaporating the water and consuming the Scarlet hair warrioress.

Salamander jumped back and the Requip mage burst through the flames. He dodged a sword slash from her and put his arms up to block a lightning fast kick. Salamander flew back and flipped onto his feet. He then looked around. There were no people on the street. Good. Salamander jumped in the air and started to chant. "When the flames of my left hand combine with the flames of my right you get…" In another bright flash the warrioress was in heavy armor with her arms holstering two halves of a massive shield. "Requip! Adamantine Armor!" She combined the sides of the shield in front of her as a ball of fire formed in the sky and grew much larger.

"FIRE DRAGON'S BRILLIANT FLAME!" Salamander threw the great ball of fire at the now super armored woman. He used up quite a bit of magic in that attack so he had to recharge for a moment as he dropped. He landed and rolled before awaiting the woman to come out of the attack. He anticipated that she would so he easily dodged a slash from the warrior who had the orange and black armor with the pigtails back on. He shielded his eyes when she glowed bright. This was a big mistake as he was slashed across the chest a dozen times, and sent flying back into a wall, effectively making it crumble on top of him.

In a moment he stood up. Rubble melting off of him. He had a large grin on his face. "Been a while since I had this much fun!" He yelled and he jumped at her. His foot caught fire as he flipped and he prepared a massive kick. "Fire Dragon's Talon!" He yelled and delivered a massive kick to where she had previously been standing. A large crater formed and Salamander's eyes widened as he saw a bright flash and she was in black spiked armor. "Requip! Purgatory Armor!" She had a huge mace like weapon that was as big as her and she jumped at him. He managed to get out of the way in time as she swung it down. The crater grew much larger as a sonic boom was heard.

The docs crumbled into the was along with most of the port. Salamander's eyes widened. The woman stared at him intently and his grin grew larger as he was beginning to enjoy himself more. His fun as cut short however as the ground began to rumble. Salamander realized what this was. "Rune knights." He said and he started to run away. The woman began to run as well but her arm was grabbed and she turned to the woman from the Cafe. "Lucy?" Lucy had tears in her eyes. "You're in Fairy Tail right?" Erza nodded. "Please take me with you, I want to join your guild!" Erza's frown turned into a smile and she grabbed Lucy's hand. "Let's go!"

They started to run as fast as they could which was Lucy getting dragged by the woman. They eventually made into a building and stayed at the inn there for the night. The next morning they made their way to the train station where they had a conversation about why Lucy wants to join Fairy Tail. Lucy now was wearing a white tee with a blue miniskirt. She had a whip on her hip with a key chain. She had knee high brown boots and a blue bow in her hair. "So Erza?" The red headed woman gave her a questioning look. "What were you doing in Hargeon?" Erza sighed in a depressed tone. "The master wanted me to bring Salamander to the guild to see if he can convince him to join.

"I guess the army interrupted that huh?" Erza nodded and put her hand on her chin for a moment before the train screeched to a halt. They got off the train and Lucy started to fangirl over the fact that she was going to be a Fairy Tail wizard. "Who was that guy you were fighting before?" Erza growled. "That was Salamander!" Lucy nodded. "Ohhh… Y'know if he wasn't a dark wizard I would actually date him." Erza's eyes widened. "Well if I complete my mission you might just be able to." Lucy nodded and Erza pushed open the doors to the guild. "Master, we have a new recruit!" A small man hopped down from the second floor. He was in his eighties and had white hair. He wore an outfit similar to a Jesters outfit and he had an overall friendly feeling about everything.

"I see. Also Erza I need you to congratulate you on your quest." Erza tilted her head in confusion. "But master I-" Someone interrupted her. "Yo." She looked to her side. "Not now Salamander!" She turned back to Makarov for a moment before it finally hit her. "WAIT WHAT! Salamander!" SHe jumped back and summoned a sword. "How dare you sneak up on me like that!" She jumped at him only to be grabbed out of the air by Makarov's now enlarged hand. "Erza! No attacking guild members with swords!" This came from Mirajane. "Guild mem...bers?" Her gaze focused on the Scarlet symbol that adorned Salamander's shoulder.

"The names Natsu by the way. Natsu Dragneel."
