Guidance of a Dragon

A New Beginning

"Well since you're the only one here I guess it won't hurt." Makarov said. He then told Natsu the name of the participants for the trial (A.N the mages will be revealed later)

"Welp I wish them luck, after all they'll need it." Natsu said while picking his things up "Welp I better get going see you in 5 days old man." Natsu then walked towards the guild door waving goodbye to Makarov

"You batter not get into any trouble brat" Makarov thought while looking at the salmon haired boy leave

Later Makarov was currently standing in front of the group of Fairy Tail mages who has gathered for the S-rank trials. "Listen up I'll now be calling the 8 mages that will participate in the trials. Gray Fullbuster, Lisanna, Elfman, Cana Alberona, Freed Justine, Mest gryder, Alzack Connell, and Gajeel Redfox. These 8 mage with there chosen partner will be competing in the S-rank trials." Makarov said.

The said mages that were called out were being congratulated by there guildmates but one blond mage noticed something or specifically someone missing and this said mage is Lucy Heartfillia

"Uh, Happy do you know where Natsu is?" Lucy asked the flying blue cat who was currently eating his fish

"Well Natsu actually left today morning on a training trip" Happy said

"Huh? But I thought Natsu wanted to become a S-rank more than anything?" Lucy questioned Happy

"Well he apparently had a change of heart and decided to go train" Happy said

While Happy was talking with Lucy Lisanna approached Happy

"Hey, Happy" Lisanna called 

"Hey, Lisanna did you need something?" Happy asked

"Yeah, I was wondering if you want to partner with me for the trial" Lisanna asked

Happy with stars in his eyes quickly nodded his head answering Lisanna's question

"Alright then lets go practice some moves we can do for the trials" Lisanna suggested

At another side of the guild Laki, Max, and Bisca were currently congratulating Alzack who was rubbing the back of his head sheepishly

"Thank you guys" Alzack said to the three mages

"So Alzack who're you going to take for the S-rank trials?" Max asked

"Well, probably Bisca. I mean those two make a great team." Laki said Calmly

"Um actually, me and Bisca had this conversation before you guys came and Bisca said she doesn't think she should join." Alzack said shocking both Laki and Max immensely

"Huh? But why Bisca this's your chance to get recognized even more around the guild?." Max asked

"Well I thought about a few things after master named all of the members participating and I'm not sure if I'm strong enough to join yet" Bisca replied "All of the mages that are participating this year are so strong I'm not sure if I'm prepared to face them yet." 

Max and Laki seeing how serious Bisca was decided to drop the topic "So Alzack who're you going to take to the trials?" Max asked 

"Actually Max I was hoping that you would participate in the trials with me." Alzack replied shocking Max

"Huh? Wait what me!?" Max asked Alzack who replied with a nod

"Yes, Max you're a strong mage that with enough planning could qualify as S-rank mage" Alzack said
