Fairy Tail: Next Generation

Chapter 65- You are our leader.

"I can see five roads." Said Simon with his eyes closed as he furrowed his eyebrows in concentration while the others, including Zeus's demon, looked at him patiently. "Each of them has a different color though."

"The colors being?"

"Pink, dark blue, blue, red and black." Said Simon, answering Zeus's question, the other narrowing his eyes at the scarlet haired boy's answer as he placed a hand under his chin in concentration.

"That's a weird combination of colors right there...."

"....are they based on our hair colors?" Wondered Nashi out loud while looking at each of her teammates hair around her, a sigh following her statement as she shook her head. "Zeus has white hair and none of us has blue hair so that's of course wrong."

Everyone nodded in agreement at Nashi's words, while something clicked in Elise's eyes as she inspected the four around her with curious eyes.

'Maybe it's our eye color?'

Nashi confusingly titled her head to the side when Elise suddenly started to repeatedly shake her head from side to side.

'No, none of us has red or pink eyes, what about our--'

A gasp followed by a squeak came out of Elise's mouth as everyone around her flinched at the girl's sudden and totally out of character reaction.

"Elise?"

"OUR MARKS YOU IDIOTS!! OUR GUILD MARKS!!" Exclaimed Elise while cutely bouncing up and down before her four friends, as she latched into the back of the person closest to her, who was none other then Storm, the girl excitedly squeezing the boy's back close to her form while Storm couldn't help but laugh at her reaction. "Nashi's mark is pink, Simon's blue, Storm's dark blue, mine's red and Zeus's black!!"

"That's--" Zeus cut himself off as he gave himself a second to digest in the words that Elise had just said as his eyes widened in realization. "Makes so much sense, holy crap Elise--"

"Right?!" Said Elise proudly as she laughed along with Storm who repeatedly poked the girl on her tights so that she can stop squeezing him so tightly.

"Okay okay, now that this is out of the way" Said Simon suddenly himself as excitement started to course through his veins at the fast pace him and his friends were able to solve the tricky riddle they were given. "If it's based on where our guild marks are placed, then according to where our marks are placed on our bodies--"

"We'll know which road we're going to take!!" Exclaimed Nashi while lightning both of her fists with her fire. "Now I'm getting fired up!!"

"Nashi and Simon's marks are on their shoulders-" Said Zeus as he pointed at the mentioned girl and boy's shoulders. "Mine's and Storm's are on our chest, and Elise's on her back soooo--"

All of them quieted down for a moment as they looked at each other questionably.

"So nothing?" Zeus sighed while rubbing at his temples. "Well I guess maybe it's not based on where their position are on our bodies--"

The sound of someone clearing their throat from behind the white haired 19 year old man cut off Zeus's words as he turned around along with the other's to peer at the person who's throat got cleared.

And it didn't turn out to be a person who cleared their throat.

It was a creature in the shape of a person.

That creature being none other then Zeus's demon Lucipher.

Zeus groaned in annoyance at the smirking creature behind him.
