The Will to Live: A Mystwalker Fanfic

Karaoke Night

Tide sighed as she looked over her troop's marching formations. "A bit to the right, Dan! No! MY right!" She advised/yelled at the guy.

"Yes, ma'am!" Dan said back, determined as ever.

"Like your spirit, Dan." Tide waited a bit, "HALT!"

The troop stopped like someone pressed the pause button.

"Nice job, folks. You guys wanna have a Y-Trap later?" Tide suggested as they got comfortable.

"Wha-?" Some dense person asked.

Tide rolled her eyes, before looking left and right, as if telling them a secret.

She indicated for them to come closer.

"A party." Tide whispered as realization dawned upon their faces. 

"Tomorrow night, Mess Hall. Just be there." Tide said before walking out.

"Tide's having a party?" King Jellal asked a random guard.

"Yes, your majesty."

"I wasn't told personally?"

A shadow loomed over them. "You don't wanna go to Tide's parties, your majesty. It's mostly karaoke and drunk men. Not to mention the Spartan-like battles, one time Tide's 'harmless party' blew up the entire mess hall."

"Captain Knightwalker!" the guards chorused, saluting on the spot.

"Oh?" Jellal asked, "Sounds like fun." It reminded him of Fairy Tail, the one he knew. Tide's Party might actually be fun for him to get along with the other soldiers and gain military support.

"Unless you wish to sing karaoke in front of all the soldiers who show up, I advise you to not attend." Captain Knightwalker advised, "She'll make you, King or not."

***Party/Ultimate Chaos****

"They're drunk, look at Tide," Knightwalker informed the King.

"I wonder what she's gonna do."

Tide jumped onto the table top and lifted a sword hilt to her mouth like a microphone.

She started singing, badly.

"She's got firey hair,
And Icy eyes
An armored heart
Wrapped in lies

Is she devil?
Or angel of war?
Is she what we've been asking for?"

Everyone looked at a fuming Captain Erza Knightwalker. Well, might plan their death wish now.

"She's the heart of all the soldiers,
yet if they're wrong
She'll make them pay
You wouldn't last long
I will say!

She's got firey hair
She cannot die

SHE'S ERZA KNIGHTWALKER!"

Said Captain was going to kill poor drunk Tide if the nearby King didn't stop her.

"The heart in all our fights
Whether for night or day

Her strength still stays
Tally ho! Goes on her battle march!

Her heart's so big, it seems cold.

Her life's so rough, it seems overload.

Her eyes can't cry cause they have though.

SHE'S ERZA KNIGHTWALKER!

You'll never see her cry,
Or act like she's all dandy
Like a scarlet butterfly.

She loves her country so,
To sin for its future.
To fight her battles solo
Her eye like a watcher."

Tide had a long way to become better at singing.

"She'll never die!
You cannot judge
A book by its design

Who there knows her true story?
How close would they know?
I met Captain in a cell.

When we were 10 years old."

Tide was dragged off by Erza, despite King Jellal's protests and orders. Some king he is...

The party was filled with flying swords, tables, and even cake. But it soon ended and King Jellal returned to his chambers happier than he has been.

Some nerve Tide must have to serenade about Captain Knightwalker. Even a kid could predict it went unwell.

Oh, you wanna know what happened?

Well, Tide is now strolling around with crutches and a cast on her right arm and a lot of bandages around her form.

She doesn't even remember what she did, but she 'doesn't regret it'.
