Journey of a Light Mage - A Fairytail Fanfic

Chapter 4- Dark Katana

***Rachel's p.o.v***

            The last few hours of the train ride was left in silent chatter. The medicine I gave Laxus seemed to be working since he no longer seemed to be groaning in pain anymore. Although, I must admit that I was indeed excited to get off the train and be out in the fresh air again. As soon as we got off the train, we headed over to meet with the mayor of the town so we could get some more information on the dark guild we would be facing.

***Evergreen's p.o.v***

            The rest of us were lagging behind Rachel as we headed towards the client's house. "As soon as we get the chance, we're dumping the weakling and completing this mission ourselves," Laxus mutters loud enough for only us to hear.

We all nod our heads in agreement. 'We don't need her, we can complete this mission on our own,' I thought.

"Hello there! You must be the mages of Fairytail here about the dark guild," the Mayor says.

"Yup! That would be us," Rachel replies.

"Come in! Come in! I'll explain everything you need to know," the Mayor says motioning for us to follow him inside.

***Timeskip***

After the Mayor explained everything we needed to know about the dark guild, we quietly exited his house. "Alright, first things first. We need to locate this dark guilds guildhall," Laxus announces.

Freed nods, "It's going to be difficult since-"

"It's northeast of us." We all stop and stare at Rachel who spoke.

"And how do you know that?" Laxus demands.

"Cause, I can see it from here," Rachel responds calmly.

"I don't see anything?" Bickslow questions.

"Sigh. My eye magic remember? My hidden eye magic allows me to be able to see anything invisible or cloaked by magic. I was scanning the area with my eye magic on the way over to the meeting with the Mayor, when I saw the dark guilds guildhall," Rachel explains.

"Great, now that we found the dark guild, lets get something to eat before we deal with them. We'll need to find a hotel as well," I say while glancing at Laxus, Freed and Bickslow with a knowing glance.

"Great idea Evergreen. Rachel why don't you look for a nice place for lunch, while Laxus and Bickslow scope out a place for dinner and Evergreen and I get us a place to stay for the night?" Freed suggests.

"Sure," Rachel replies.

"Great! We will meet you here for lunch in about an hour, that should give us enough time to complete our 'assignments,'" Bickslow says glancing at us. We all walk off in different directions before Laxus and Bickslow regroup with Freed and I.

"Good call Evergreen. Alright guys lets go complete this job," Laxus says as we head northeast towards the dark guilds guildhall.

***Bickslow's p.o.v***

We all headed northeast like Rachel said and soon arrive at a large clearing within the forest. "Well, well, well. Look at what we have here, more mages to play with?" a chilling voice taunts. We direct our attention to the man approaching from the center of the clearing.

"Well, at least we know the kid was right about the location of their guildhall," I exclaim as we all get into our defensive stance.

"I am the master of the dark guild, Dark Katana," the man announces. Slowly, probably about a hundred mages appear behind their master sniggering evilly.

"And we're mages of Fairytail, here to take you down!" Laxus yells.

"Fairytail? Ha! That worthless guild? Hear that boys! This will be an easy win for us," their master mocks. We growl back in response. "Especially against you. Afterall, all you are is the guildmasters worthless little grandson," their master says smugly. That sets him off as Laxus charges at their guildmaster in pure rage, the rest of us, just as angry following suit close behind.

We together used our magic to plow through the guild member goons, towards their master. "Baryon Formation Babies!" I shout firing off spell after spell taking out their members. 'They just keep coming,' I thought, glancing at the others who were having the same problem.

I punch down another goon realizing something. I glance around again and notice that they are separating us. I try to break away from the multiple goons surrounding me to regroup with the others. 'Damn it! There's too many!' I panic.

All of a sudden, I felt weak and I fall to my knees. 'Aarrgh, they drained my magic,' I thought. The goons then together hit me with a magic blast sending me flying to the other side of the clearing, roughly landing on the ground. Groaning, I glance around to notice Freed, Evergreen and Laxus on the ground next to me, looking just as weak as I felt.

"Well done Fairytail, you lasted longer than the other guilds, but I have no use for you. Goodbye Fairytail," their master says, writing a powerful spell.

'Damn it! Our magics drained we can't defend ourselves!' I thought in a panic.

***Third- person p.o.v***

The Dark Katana guildmaster fires his spell towards the helpless Fairytail members as they are powerless to the spell heading straight towards them. When suddenly there's a rustle of leaves and a bright flash as the spell hits. The Dark Katana guildmaster laughs with his guild in victory as smoke fills the clearing.
