Chapter 01 - Starting Fresh

Start from the beginning
                                    

My eyes were about to jump out of its sockets and my mouth hanging wide open but I replaced it with a huge grin. I ripped off the paper from the board and skipped happily towards Macao.

"A-ano...Macao-san, o-oh gomen. I mean Master?"

"Oh, Cynthia-chan! What is it?" he gave a fake smile. By the looks of it, he was trying his best to not look weak but that didn't work out so well.

"C-Can I take this job o-offer? I know it seems too tough and all for a girl like me and for my age, but I'm capable of doing this! Onegai! Master Makarov promoted me as an S-Mage so I don't see any other problem than my age....". I pleaded.

"Hmmm, well... I don't think that's such a great idea. Even though you are quite skilled and have the package as an S-Mage. I simply cannot allow you to go."

"But Wendy-chan is about my age and she went on missions and to uh... Tenrou Island.. I've figured that instead of just sitting around, I can go out on a job to help out with the guild! I'll do my very best! Please, please pleaseeee!!!" I gave him my cutest and adorable puppy dog eyes, to even add on to this effect, I hugged Macao and looked up to him and pouted my lips.

I noticed that Macao was trying to fight off the effect but it wasn't working well for him since my puppy dog eyes were a weak spot for most people within the guild.

"Oh come on, Macao! Why not let her give it a shot! It wouldn't be too bad, besides she's not even a child really. She's almost a woman in a few years!" Wakaba entered in on the conversation while smoking his cigar.

"How many times have I told you to call me master?!?! Get it together Wakaba!" he said while pressing his forehead against Wakaba's with an irk mark popping out.

"Forget it! I'm not calling you Master, I don't even think you have the guts to be one!" Wakaba provoked him.

"Alright you two, that's enough" Laki said in the background.

Wakaba and Macao were still holding onto each other's collar, glaring down daggers. If looks could kill, both of them would be on the verge of death. They slowly loosened their grip and sighed.

"Oui Oui, you two should stop fighting and give Cynthia-chan an answer" Reedus, nonchalantly said while painting on his canvas.

Wakaba looked away and sighed. On the other hand Macao turned to look down and face me. He groaned in defeat and placed his hand on top of my head.

"Y-you can go. However, there are a few conditions. Am I clear?"

My eyes widened in huge excitement and I held a huge grin on my face. I grabbed onto Macao's jacket and jumped in excitement while nodding.

"Of course Macao-san! Err.. I mean Master! I promise. A-and what are those conditions?" I blinked and cocked my head to the side.

"First..." he held up his index finger. "You will leave tomorrow morning, but you have to pack and bring a lot of stuff that you may need on your trip. And i meant a lot!", I sweatdropped, then he lifted his middle finger to show two fingers. "And secondly, you must, MUST come back after your job and never die on us. Alright? Do I make myself clear? I don't want to lose another comrade... " he grimaced.

I smiled cheekily and hugged him by the waist. Since i'm sort of tiny... I looked up to him.

"I promise Master Macao. I will definitely come back. For everyone, for the guild. I promise, I won't die because....because... this job is just finding a rare item which appears to be a mirror?... Eh heh..." I grinned sheepishly while letting him go and scratched the side of my cheek.

"Eh?!? That's it? Alright then, but still! You have to come back" he strictly answered.

"Thank you Master and everyone else! I promise to come back and get that 1.5 Million Jewel!" I bowed and looked towards everyone in the room. They replied with cheers and wished me luck.

I ran out the guild and towards Fairy Hills, where its the female dormitory where most Fairy Tail women stay at. Pushing my door open to enter inside my room, I had a single sized bed on my right side in the corner with a window beside my bed, in front of me was my desk, and on my left was my closet. I went into my closet and pulled out a small bag.

Nothing too fancy or anything. Just enough to fill it with jewels and a few small things that I may need on my trip. My room wasn't that big, however it was small and cozy. I liked it that way.

Soon, I got ready for bed since it was already dark outside, I might as well put on my sleeping clothes and hit the hay. Thinking about leaving tomorrow made me even more excited and I couldn't wait any longer! I sat on my bed with my legs hanging out and looked up towards the ceiling.

'I wonder where Natsu-san and everyone else have disappeared too... It's not like they can vanish into thin air... I guess. Right? But wherever they are, I hope they come back and are all safe...' thinking about this was hurting me on the inside.

Tears were slowly falling on my cheeks and I wiped them away with the back of my hand. Pushing these thoughts away, I lay down on my side facing the window, pulled on my blanket and slowly closed my eyes, going into a deep slumber.
