The Misfits {Fairytale Origins AU}

The Real Chapter One

  The Misfits' guild hall. It was hidden entirely underneath a huge tree. The tree is where they train each day. Going from branch to branch fighting against each other, and the creatures if the forest. While the main room in the guild hall had a twenty foot tall ceiling, in fact, every room in the guild hall had twenty foot tall ceilings to compensate for Elly, ensuring she's perfectly comfortable, and any other individual that may join the guild. Doorways are nineteen feet tall.

  The main room has something for everyone. It's resistant to magic, and it has areas in it designed for the comfort of anyone from any element. As well as what looks to be a hundred pillows, blankets, chairs, and couches in the center of it all.

 
  The guild was gathered there, in the main room, waiting for Alexis and Bryan to return. Waiting for the news, on weather or not they're an official guild. They were nervous, there's no need to lie, it's obvious they are. But it's a feeling they can forget.

  Bryan opens the doors to the main room, with Alexis following, a smile present on her face, Bryan's blank and stern, as it always is. Ever since Davis' death, it was rare to see his face in any other way.

  "So? Did they say yes?" Cinthy asked, her voice wavering for the first time since she's met Bryan. She broke the silence with the question they all wanted to know, and Bryan's response, was a nod and a small smile.

  The guild busted into cheers and Damien runs to Bryan, hugging him quickly. Bryan's expression faltering as he hugs his beloved adopted son. This is all they ever wanted anyways. They have their guild, their safe space, where they don't need to fit in, and they don't have to run from their pasts or hide who they are.

  The guild would then proceed to celebrate the night away, and the next morning they were all given their ranks.

  "Remember, C class is the lowest, then it's B class, A class, S class, and finally SS class," Bryan announced to everyone, "and as guild leader, I'm the one who decides each of your ranks, ok?"

  They all nodded. They understood this, it was basic knowledge, as well as how the guild leader is always SS class. But they also understand that Bryan didn't know when he first joined the Protecters, and while he has experience, it wasn't with a brand new guild.

  "But our guild is also exceptionally strong, and if you guys were to be apart of any normal guild you be SS class or just S class, but this isn't a normal guild, and all of you can improve much much more," Bryan continued on, leaving tension amongst the guild, "which is why you will all be C class, with the exception of Luke who will be A class, he's proven he is of much higher skill then the rest of you."

  They nodded once more, while his words saddened some of them, they knew all of it was true. Every last bit of it.
