Lava Shards: A Fairy Tail Fanfiction

For Old Times Sake

"Tch, look at those fairy tail wimps!" The bartender comments to my new volume of 'Sorcerers Weekly' magazine. "An ice make wizard that's probably a stripper as a second job. A slut that poses for shots on these magazines and acts like a bartender who has rumors about her being a demon. A red head that can change really fast. And a cute blond that makes spirits fight for her! Heh, an whose that guy you talk about. The salamander, fire dragon that can go down to Irene easily."

He was pissing me off... I had idolized Fairy Tail for some time after Black Hydra was cut off from the dark guilds and had grown a deep respect for all of the members that were talked about and interviewed of 'Sorcerers Weekly'. Frustrated, I put the magazine down and take a sip of my drink.

"Gray Fullbuster, Mirajane Strauss, Erza Scarlet, Lucy Heartfillia, and" I cut myself off before I say his name and sigh. "Natsu Dragneel. In the order you described them those are their names. Use them." I say to the bartender, Savin, the weight shifter of the guild.

He was a fat man without magic in use but he was terrifying. One second he can be light as a feather and floating high above your head and the next he can become as heavy as a mountain, over your head.

I remember my fight with him as for the test for an S class wizard. He was another S class that I needed to face to proceed. I ended up winning by a hair as a kamikaze counterattack with lava and my obsidian arm worked. I ended up in a tie that year with my childhood friend Akira, again. My brother, the guild master got tired of seeing the same fights between me and Akira year after year so he promoted us both.

"'Ey kid... I heard you got some beef with the stripper and the fire dragon?" Savin says in an asking tone. I take off my glove to expose my black crystal-like hand. "I lost my arm trying to learn my magic because I wasn't able to control the damage I took when I summoned it. Salamander was able to freely control his flames and devour the fire of others" I move the obsidian fingers around. It should be impossible that I can do a simple thing like move my artificial fingers. Make magic is a beautiful thing. "I respect Natsu and I want to fight him one day"

"And Gray?"

"He became an Ice Make wizard to defeat Deloria. But after his teacher died he found Fairy Tail. I have a respect for him too. And we have the same style of magic, you know?" Gray Fullbuster's ice make magic was unreal. Pure crystal-like dark blue ice caused the air far around it to get cold.

I take more big sips of the drink and finished looking at Mirajane's pictures. "She's so cute her face alone could make her be considered sexy..." I say to myself, admiring more than just her face

*FWAHT*

The straw and stick door slams open and hits the wall causing it to break and scattering sticks and straw everywhere. There's only one ruthless bitch in the guild who would open the door like that

"HEEEEEY EVERYBODY IM HOOOOOOME!!!" Akira yells with a huge grin on her face. She was on another S class job for a long time. And people had started wondering about her. In reflex I pick up the stool I was sitting on and prepare to throw it at her. With one swing I'm able to fling the chair at her making it crash to pieces on her head and scattering wood everywhere sending her flat on her back making everybody gasp.

I casually walk over to her and say "Took you long enough! Was the pay that good?!" No response comes from my friend. "Heeeeey! Listen to me Aki" she has yet to say another word... I turn my back to her and make my good hand a horizontal 'L' on my chin. "COSMIC GODS-" I hear a voice behind me and turn my body and obsidian arm to protect my head. "-METORE KICK". Her foot lands in her toes on my palm but the force of the magic is enough to break through my hand and get me in the face sending me flying across the guild.

I get up from the spot where I landed and looked at my broken arm. It was shattered from my finger tips to wrist and jagged sharp edges everywhere. "Obsidian make: Shard Cannon!" I yell as my arm breaks apart and launches the shards and fires then at Akira's feet trying to scare her.

With a wry smile she stares at me dead in the eyes. With her left arm facing forward towards me the magic energy starts to rise. With two fingers she puts her right hand behind her left making the two fingers point to she side. "Sacred Sta-"

In an instant the magic power drains away. There's only one person who can do this with Akira, no, anybody's magic power. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING" my brother yells.
