Thread: 〖Unison Raid!〗A Fairy Tail RP [Frost/Ironic]

The reaction of this... guild... startled the boy. Before this he had only seen misery and sadness, it was all he could remember, everything before those months were blank, the people who had taken him, the village where he grew up, he couldn't remember... these people reacted differently than he had ever dreamed, shouting at eachother to grab medical supplies and food... His eyes widened slightly and the tears slowed for now. Was this a Guild? Immediately several people rushed towards him, looks of concern and fright touching their expression. Who was this kid? Why did he look so beaten up? What was with his arm? The boy's own reaction to this was one of fear. His eyes widened with fear and his bare feet stepped backwards away from the men and women who were approaching him, and his bare feet taking a couple steps back before they gave out on him altogether and he fell to the ground, splashing mud all over himself and sobbing. His mind was so hazy and his emotions were running rampant, he had seen so much senseless death, and this thing was eating away at him, he could feel it. The first couple of people who approached him stalled when he did this and he glanced left and right with wide and sunken eyes. The bags under his eyes informed those approaching to help that he had gone for days without sleep he was exhausted and starving, cold and miserable. Help.... Help me.. He struggled with the words through his sobs, all these people approaching him made him even more afraid. Two men and a woman approached, both of the men were in their thirties, but the woman looked older than the others and they moved to the side respectful when she approached him. She looked like she was in her late fifties, had long dark hair, graying already and stress and tied in a single, messy ponytail. She wore a white coat around her form that reached to her ankles, decorated with fur linings and exquisite decorations, including a badge that the boy did not recognize, one of the symbols of the 10 Saint Wizards. The Guildmaster aged gracefully, the boy couldn't guess her age by look, but she appeared to be older and wiser than anyone he had seen before... The Guildmaster approached the boy cautiously, kneeling about three feet away from him and offering him a reassuring smile. Something about this woman put him at ease, and for a moment he stopped trembling for fear, eyes shifting to the much younger girl who pushed her way through the crowd that had gathered. This girl looked like she was only a couple of years older than he was her features were unusual even compared to the other colorful individuals bustling around the guildhall, with white hair and even whiter eyes. Her eyes looked almost emotionless, unlike his own, which were a dull red and filled with fear. The boy regarded this girl as she approached him, biting his lower lip and recoiling as she brazenly approached him and reached out her hand. The whispers increased in volume as she approached, becoming violent as she reached for him. She moved in brazenly, past the woman and reached out, introducing herself before reaching out and grabbing his right hand. Immediately those whispers became screams in his ears, drowning out the voices of concern and orders for food and blankets. The boy reacted suddenly and violently when she grabbed that arm that was wrapped in bandages. Pain exploded through him, as if he had been stabbed all over again time and time again, something felt like it was wrapping around his arm and spikes were digging into him. Those bandages stained red again. His reaction was startling at best, those eyes lighting up with pain and a cry of pain found its way to his lips, still weak and raspy. His muscles moved on their own accord and his eyes went wide. His body seemed to move on its own and he ripped his afflicted arm from her grasp, almost swatting at her before pulling that arm tightly into his belly and grasping it with his other hand and pulling it into his stomach, doubling over in pain. At the same time of his reaction she might feel something that felt strangely like several hands pushing her away from him. The boy seemed too focused on the pain in his arm to pay attention to anything else, not seeing the guildmaster place her hand on the girl's shoulder. Nevaeh, now isn't the time for that, hes afraid and hurting. She said, immediately kneeling by his side and gingerly lifting his arm, shushing him. The Guildmaster examined his arm gingerly, and something she saw made her frown. Without a word she stood and looked over to one of the men who had joined her at the doors. Alek, get some food, stew, something filling and easy to eat Then her eyes shifted to another man, this one younger than the other Mason, get fresh bandages and some medical lacrima from the basement. Finally she looked at another man, this one had been sitting in the back of the crowd with a large mug. He had white eyes and looked old. Sirus, I need you to send a message to Varrius, tell him to get to my office immediatly, emergency Varrius, the Blademaster, a name that Navaeh would recognize as one of Fairy Tail's most feared members, a magic swordsman whos skill helped the Guilds win the Great War... he was elusive, but capable of moving very quickly. The older woman then looked down to the boy. Everything is going to be okay, you are safe here, but I am going to need you to stay still and come with me, no more pushing With that she scooped the small and wet little creature into her arms and picked him up off the ground. Nevaeh, if you want to help, find some clothing for this young man, there should be some clothes upstairs that will fit him, check the closets, Ill be in my office, bring them when you find them. And without a further word she turned and stormed out of the room with the starving child in her arms, quickly walking to her office. He didn't resist her, he couldn't anyway as she carried him into a large and well decorated room with a heavy door, setting him down gently on the desk and pulling up a comfy chair to sit in herself, drawing lines in the air and making a gesture. Immediately two complex designs made out of light appeared in front of her and her right hand was surrounded by the same light. The light formed into two screens and something that resembled a smaller screen with many little squares on it. His eyes widened slightly, having never seen such magic being used... You aren't used to magic, are you, this is called archive magic, it helps me gather and categorize information, very handy for someone in my position . She turned to him and sat down by his side. Now, I am going to remove your bandages and look at what is underneath... they are old and need to be replaced, if they get infected your health will decline even further. Really she had other purposes. With a stern hand she lifted his arm, carefully avoiding touching his hand and swiftly unraveled the bandages. It was pretty clear she had some sort of experience and soon his entire arm was revealed and the guildmaster's expression darkened, frowning at what she saw underneath. The palm of the boy's hand still looked as if it was wounded, a complex diamond-shaped mark marring his small hand on the front and back... From there marks spread and wound up his arm, the marks looked almost like a lattice of thorny vines extending from the design at the center, wrapping around his wrist and spreading all the way up his arm to the shoulder, crisscrossing and gripping as they went. Should Nevaeh Peek into the room at the moment she might see it and the dire expression on the Guildmaster's face. She was worried, this was no normal tattoo, and that symbol was unmistakable... The mark of Zeref lie on the center of his hand. The thorny tattoo was not still on his arm either, but instead seemed to move through and over his skin like a living creature, thorns digging deep cuts to draw blood in his arms and hand. It almost seemed that the tattoo was straining to climb his arm, and was the source of her concern. The Guildmaster carefully examined the mark before reaching into her pocket and extracting a large golden pen, getting to work on writing something on one of the screens before turning to him. Her gentle hands moved to his shoulders and chin, further examining him cautiously and even glancing under the tattered rags he was wearing. What is your name? She asked patiently, sitting before him. The boy only shook his head. Do you not remember? His reply was a meek nod. He couldn't remember anything, and although this woman had been kind to him, he still didn't trust her. It would be a long time before he trusted anybody. She shook her head and smiled. We can worry about those things after we get some food in you She stood before him and with that pen leaned over and touched his upper shoulder. My name is Asca Connell, and I am the Master of this guild, Fairy Tail She smiled at him, giving a reassuring look and smoothing her hand on his cheek. You know, my granddaughter is about the same age as you, she is in this guild too, I am sure she would be excited to meet you. She smiled brightly In the meantime though we will have to do something about that mark as soon as we can, this is going to sting but I am going to try to keep this mark from spreading even further. The guildmaster leaned in and closed her eyes, focusing her magic power on the pen and grasped his hand gently. A sphere of golden light surrounded the tip of her pen and she moved quickly. Before he or any of the spirits around him could react she grasped his hand and quickly drew that light across his arm. The vines climbing into his shoulder shattered and were replaced with a new design that quickly formed into a bond around his upper arm. The vines leapt from his arm, for a moment trying to attack the guildmaster, but a quick swipe from her pen forced them back. She forced them down and down until they were stuck just above his elbow and the light could force them back no longer. The boy was oddly still during this whole event, the pain caused by the vines was overwritten by calming warmth from the pen. His entire arm went numb so he could only watch as the powerful magic user fought with his curse. After a couple more moments, she finished, winded and with sweat beading on his brow. She quickly took fresh white bandages and evenly wrapped them around his arm all the way to his shoulder The boy had his eyes squeezed shut the entire time, only opening them when the sensation stopped, noting that the guildmaster was winded. You are to show no one else that mark, okay? It must remain a secret of you and all the rest of us are in big trouble... It is a dark thing, but can be controlled, and we can help you control it She glanced to the side, noticing that the boy seemed to be looking at someone. If you let us She said, and he frowned, looking down. I... I have no where to go to which she immediatly responded, cutting him off. This is Fairy Tail, many of us started like you, even some of our most beloved members came to us as orphans and lost, this place is safe, no, more than that it is a family, and you are more than welcome to join us. It was at this moment that she turned around and smiled. Nevaeh, you may enter And when she did she stepped to the side, showing the boy and his newly bandaged arm, looking as miserable as ever. This boy will be joining us in Fairy Tail, he has lots of potential and has lost his family. She trailed off, a lot like the white-haired girl did really, his family was likely sacrificed to feed that mark on his arm. He doesn't remember his name though She grinned and turned to reach out an arm and press a finger to the bottom of his chin, manually raising his vision, wiping the tears from his eyes much as she had done for the girl years ago. He kind of looks like a fox, doesn't he With his piercing eyes and slender features he did really. Perhaps Reynard? Its a heroic name, the name of a heroic fox that liked to play tricks on other animals... He glanced up at her, smiling for the first time in days, for some reason he liked it... Reynard. Reyn He almost whispered the word, choosing a name for himself. The Guildmaster clapped her hands together and cheered. Very good! Reyn it is! Welcome to Fairy Tail!
