I don't even know where to start telling you about my crap life. My parents... I guess is where I'm going to start. My mom died giving birth, and my father had left before learning about me. I had lived with a woman in the woods until I was five or so. Then she brought me into the wood and said she was going to give me to my new parents, my new home.

She brought me to a cliff, saying we were almost there. She put her hand on my back while her and I looked down at the giant lake below. If you hadn't already guessed, she pushed me down into the water. She pushed me off a cliff and watched me scream my head off all the way down.

Under the water is where I saw who I now call my mother. She was a gray-blue with green eyes. Until she swam up her gills blended in with the rocks and darkness. I tried to swim away but from under the water she said,

"It's all right dear. I'll be taking care of you now. You're named Briny, aren't you?" She waited for a reply, but seemed to realize I couldn't breath. A bright blue outline over all of her scales suddenly appeared...

In a couple of years I was breathing under water, walking on it, moving it, shaping it, heating it to a boil, and freezing it solid. I was a Water Dragon Slayer Dragon. As more years I was a teenager and a powerful wizard. My life was great, until July seventh. The being I called my mother never came back. I woundered the woods for a long time searching for her.

I was taken back in by the same woman who pushed me over the cliff. When she grew ill I healed her. That was one of my many abilities. I stayed with her until I was twenty.


After a long time I ended up homeless in Magnolia. I was still young, and a well known wizard at that. I was known as Sabertooth's old strongest member. I left when the Master started kicking people out and hurting them. One day he came after me, saying my Exile, Sapphire, made me weak, and he was going to kill her. I nearly killed him for hurting her. I never told anybody my powers after leaving, and decided not to use them in public anymore, seeing as I nearly killed the Guild Master with lost magic I didn't even know I could use.

Then I ran into Makorav... literally. Sapphire was flying above me, so I was watching her. I ran right into him. He noticed Sapphire right away.

"Last I knew, only dragon slayers had Exiles. You wouldn't heppen to be one would you?" I hesitated, but shook my head vigerously. He chuckled, "You're a bad liar child. Why hide who you are, hmm?"

"I don't want people to know. I almost killed somebody protecting Sapphire," I glanced up at the white and blue-bellied cat, "I don't have anybody to protect me anymore. Since I left my guild..."

"Well," he said chuckling evily, "you could join Fairy Tail. You become one of us and you'll have a new family. By the sounds, you don't have one to call your own, as of now." I hesitated, but remembered the stories of how Fairy Tail was the best guild, and the best guild to be in. I nodded.


(At the Guild!)


I was quickly greeted by many people when Makorav brought me in, and announced I was going to join the guild.

"Now, Briny, you'll be tested tomorrow," Makarov said suddenly. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion.

"Why, or... for what?" I asked calmly. A tall man with blond hair suddenly walked in. There was a lightning bolt shaped scar on his face. Behind him followed a green haired man in formal clothes, a brunet in mostly green clothes, and a man with a mask covering all but the bottom half of his face.

"Ah, Lexus, would you mind testing Briny here on her magical strength? I wish to know weather or not to move her up to S-Class." Matsu, the pink haired boy who a redhead named Erza had just knocked out, suddenly woke up and yelled,

"No way, you can't just test her! You don't let any of us test!" Makarov's hand suddenly grew to the size of a short, fat, man. He then then used it to thump Natsu on the top of his head.

"Yeah, I don't care. As long as you think she can handle it," the tall boy replied. Gramps nodded and looked at me.

"I suggest you prepare yourself." I nodded and walked out of the guild to practice a little before a big fight like that.
