In Plain Sight (Fairy Tail FTM Disguise)
🕑 Added 2024-08-31 10:26:00 +0000 UTCYear X792 of the Earthland Calendar.
It's been nearly a few months since Zeref and Acnologia's defeat in the hands of the Fairy Tail guild and their allies across the land, and everything has just rebuilt back to any sense of normalcy after the whole war that's just gone out. Well, normal as one could get if you happened to be a guild member of Earthland's most infamous guild, and unfortunately for one Wendy Marvell, this is the one thing that's always come to mind.
In this case, a very typical bar brawl.
"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY, YOU ARCTIC NITWIT!?", Natsu Dragneel screaming bloody murder at his black-haired rival, Gray Fullbuster, who also has his fist raised.
"You heard me, you flame-brained idiot! I said, I'm stronger than you!"
"OH, IT'S ON, NOW, YOU STUBBORN POPPET!!!"
"FIGHT ME LIKE A MAN, DRAGNEEL!!!"
"I'LL KICK YOUR ASS AND SHOW YOU WHY I'M THE STRONGEST!!"
"Come on, Natsu! Can we have at least one day without actually erupting this guildhall into a warzone?", his friend Lucy Heartfilia tries to interject, but it falls on deaf ears.
"YOU WANNA GO, YOU ICE-MAKING FREAK?!?!"
"BRING IT ON, YOU FIRE-BREATHING MORON!!!"
"NATSU!! GRAY!! That's enough!!!", Mirajane Strauss, the white-haired beauty who acts as the guild's bartender, scolds them.
"YOU TAKE THAT BACK, GRAY!!!!"
"MAKE ME, BITCH!", said Gray before one of his ice-infused punches accidentally hits Erza Scalet squarely in the face, punting her several feet into a nearby wall. This promptly scares the two boys out of their wits as Lucy and Mirajane back away from the forthcoming massacre that is about to ensue, the former can only say with a sigh of resignation.
"Well, told you so."
With all the chaos that is constantly all over the place in this guild, one might assume that Fairy Tail is just as battle-hungry as many would say, but rather it's the opposite, as this has since become something of a bi-weekly tradition and everyone is just... used to this already.
"Another day, another bearable chaos in the guild, isn't it, Wendy?", a white-haired catgirl sighs as she and her best friend Wendy walks over to the quest board, the latter still searching for a quest to take.
"Yeah, Carla", Wendy replied, "After a while, it was fine, like it is always there." The dark blue-haired girl could only sigh as she remembered having to forcibly partake in one of those brawls, and despite being rather reluctant in the first place, the fight was surprisingly... fun, in a weird way, if not a bit intoxicating.
"Hmmph..", Carla purrs in disbelief, "It's no wonder everyone in this guild is already accustomed to their constant squabbling. Everyone here is really getting stranger each day, it seems."
Wendy still continuously looking for a quest she can handle, one that she can try doing on her own, until one stray bottle of liquor hits her head and knocks her off-balance. It was when she got back on her feet does she found the perfect quest she's been looking for.
"Finally! A quest to do by myself!", Wendy exclaims, taking the slip of paper and reading it carefully, "Hmm, seems simple enough."
According to the quest request, the client stated that there is a town, a rather normal-looking one at that, not too far off the south side of Magnolia's borders. This town is said to have been a frequent sighting of people going missing, and the local authorities have no idea where these people have gone, nor do they have any clues as to who's behind it. What's really weird about it is the unexplained rise in male population, with its female populace seeming to be slowly dwindling each day.
"Sounds easy enough, a town plagued by a strange series of kidnappings, with an oddly specific gender preference, nonetheless", Wendy says, her eyes skimming through the details, "It's not much, but it'll do. Let's see, the town is named Cedarwood, and the reward is 300,000 jewels, huh. Not bad."
"300,000 Jewels? That's quite a hefty price tag, especially for a job like this."
"I know, right?", the 14-year-old girl replies, "I don't really care much about the money, though. As long as I get the job done, that's good enough for me."
"Of course, you wouldn't." Carla rolls her eyes in amusement, "Anyway, I'm not really comfortable with the thought of you going on a quest alone, even if it's a simple one like this. Are you sure you can handle it?"
"Of course, Carla", Wendy says, a big smile forming on her face, "Besides, this might help me with mastering my magic."
"I guess I can't stop you with that!", Carla says with a small laugh, "But still, are you sure you can handle yourself well?"
"Don't worry, Carla", the dark-blue-haired girl replies, "I'm just gonna look around and maybe ask a few questions, that's all. It'll be quick."
"Alright, if you say so. But you better tell us if anything goes wrong, ok?"
"Sure."
"Okay then. Good luck, and be careful."
"Thanks, Carla.
