It was a dark and stormy night in the cheerful town of Magnolia. Street lamps were lit around the town, giving it a warm glow in the rain. Despite the dull weather, large groups of people were moving around, going on about their business with the usual cheer and merriment. Children stood in the streets with their heads turned up and mouths open, trying to catch some raindrops laughing the whole time.

People sat under the tables of cafes, enjoying pastries and hot cups of coffee as they gossiped about the usual happenings in and around the beautiful town and it's habitants

"Fairy tail is at it again, today" a male said said exasperatedly, although with a hint of fondness in their voice in a table.

"Haha, I wouldn't pounce on those kids, mate. We're lucky to have them, you know. They keep this place safe and lively. Sure, they are destructive, but it's all in good fun, eh?" someone at the same table commented. At that others around him chuckled and nodded in agreement fondly.

"What about their ace? Is he back yet? I don't remember seeing him around for few months," a lady that was at an adjacent table asked.

"I think you missed him. He was here a little while back, but I think he just recently left again to go on another mission. You know him! He can't stay in one place too long or he'll get bored. I suppose it's all as well, though. Whenever he comes around, I have to worry about my daughter," an old man said with a sigh. At that some men groaned along with few others laughing.

"Natsu is going to follow in his footsteps, mark my words... Maybe except the pervert part. Nobody can keep that kid down. He's burned down my shop at least six times by now. Master always pays for it in the end, though," a shopkeeper exclaimed the final part that gained laughs around him again.

"But you have to admit, he's pretty cute. Him and the Ice Wizard that's always around, Gray" a young girl commented from the next table of the adults. The other teens surrounding her murmured their agreement, much to the chagrin of the boys at the table.

"Leave the boys, we all know who the most beautiful girl in Fairy tail is!" a boy yelled excitedly pumping his hand in the air. He was met with a single name.

"MIRAJANE!" the other boys yelled, name of the resident model of the guild. Some girls pouted but few even blushed at her name being mentioned. Mirajane was popular with the boys and even among some girls.

"Even, Erza. But she's... kind of scary," another boy said, looking around to make sure that she wasn't there. A few shivered, but the girls giggled at the scared looks on the boys.

"Can I get you anything more, sir?" a waitress asked a cloaked figure sitting alone at a corner table of the cafe.

The figure was hidden mostly in the dark with a dark green dripping wet hood covering their eyes, with an empty coffee cup in their hands.

The figure looked up and all the waitress could see was a small smile on the face. Most of their face was hidden in the lack of light in the corner.
