Child Of God

"Thank you! They are my treasure." He said and looked at the knocked out Natsu on the ground. He noticed that Kurama didn't attack with harmful intentions so he didn't interfere.

"My name is Erza Scarlet. I apologize for Natsu's rude behaviour, Sir." A red-haired woman walked up to Kurama and bowed down before picking up Natsu and throwing him over her shoulder.

"Don't worry about it. He is an interesting child. And since he reminds me of an old friend of mine, we can just forget what just happened." Kurama said and smiled a little. The red-haired woman smiled back and bowed again before walking off.

"You do know it's very rude to stare." Rory raised her gaze and it landed on a young blonde-haired man on the second floor of the building.

"You want something? Why don't you come down." Rory gestured with her finger for him to come down.

The man with the incredibly arrogant demeanour jumped over the ledge and landed on the first floor. The small exchange caused a strong reaction from the rest of the guild. Because this man rarely left the second floor when he was actually inside the guild building.

"Laxus, you're back. When did you return?" Erza asked cautiously. She was well aware of his typical behaviour. Erza knew that this could quickly escalate to something dangerous.

"I come and go as I wish. None of that is your concern Erza." Laxus said while looking Kurama up and down.

"Fight me!" Laxus said in a pretty casual tone but still one that oozed with excitement.

"You wouldn't stand a chance kid. Leave it alone." Kurama said clearly not interested in the boy one bit.

You could hear whispers immediately start around the guild. This stranger just told Laxus that he stood no chance. Very few in the guild could back up such an arrogant statement.

"Laxus wouldn't stand a chance? Are you kidding me? It's Laxus we're talking about!" The dark-haired boy said to Lucy and Erza.

"They both give me a dangerous feeling. I think he is speaking the truth." Erza said loud enough for Laxus to pick up.

"Erza, you would do well to watch your mouth from now on." Laxus half turned around and glared at Erza with anger visible inside his eyes.

"Laxus! You will stand down." The elderly man on the counter said slowly.

"Don't tell me what to do, gramps!" Laxus turned his focus back on Kurama.

"Having a hard time controlling your grandson?" Rory said in a teasing tone. This pissed Laxus off because they spoke like he was a kid caught between the squabble of two a.d.u.l.ts.

"Shut up little girl. You're pissing me off." Laxus said and slightly raised his arms. He was preparing to attack Kurama any second. This, however, drew Rory's attention to his hands and more specifically what was on one of them.

"Where did you get that?" Rory pointed at the ring and all members looked at it as well. Magical rings were nothing uncommon so no one thought anything of it. One person inside the guild, however, reacted to this.

"Why should I tell you?" Laxus said now very annoyed that they didn't even seem ready to attack or defend against him.

"Because it doesn't belong to you," Rory said with an unusually serious tone.

"of course it does. Gramps gave it to me, and his father gave it to him. So it naturally belongs to me." Laxus said with confidence and also a certain tone of bragging.

"It doesn't belong to you, yet." Rory snapped her finger and the ring disappeared from Laxus finger and appeared inside her hand.

"How did... That ring can't be removed without the wearer's permission." Laxus almost screamed in his intense confusion.

"Stupid. You clearly know nothing." Rory said and jumped down from Kurama's shoulder and landed on the ground. And now finally could the members see her height properly.

"My name is Rory Mercury! The creator of that ring. And also... One of the six founders of Fairy Tail." Rory did a quick bow and then raised her hand and showed the entire guild the back of her hand where her tattoo was.

"WAAAAH!"

"NO WAY!"

"FOUNDER!???"

"A LITTLE GIRL?"

Everyone started screaming and flipping tables in shock.

"SHUT UP!" The guild master yelled and his magic power immediately flared and suppressed the riot going on inside the guild.

"It's common knowledge that our guild only has four founders," Erza said and summoned one of her swords. She didn't take kindly to people pretending to be Fairy Tail.

"Erza stand down. She is speaking the truth." The elderly man said calmly. But this caused the members to shock to just deepen further.

"I wasn't told about it until I became the guild master myself. But the second master told me on that day that our guild had two other founders." He said while looking at Rory for confirmation.

"That would be us! All the founders were given special magical rings on the day of the guild's creation. And that would be these." Rory held up her left hand and Kurama did the same. The rings were now on display in front of everyone here.

"Laxus, this ring was given to your great grandfather. One of the founders. You will have to prove to me that you are worthy of this because you are not getting it back before that."

Rory made the ring disappear into nowhere in front of the guild. Laxus lost his mind at this action. Not entirely because of the ring but because she was walking all over him like nothing.

"ENOUGH! You just forfeited your life." Laxus said and lighting started to spread from his body. He rushed forward at lighting speed to attack Rory.

"Futile!" Rory raised her right index finger and caught Laxus fist like it was nothing. All the jaws in the room hit the floor at the same time.

"You have power but you can't even use it" Rory disappeared and reappeared in front of his face in no time. No one could even comprehend that she had moved.

"Think it over when you wake up." Rory used her finger and did the same karate chop motion that Kurama did on Natsu. Only that she just used her one finger to defeat Laxus. He was slammed down on the floor, and his body created large cracks on the floor.

"You have a good grandson. But you let him walk down a dangerous path. Be a better grandpa." Rory said with no mercy.

She knew Laxus needed some guidance right now and she told the old man the truth without a care for anyone's feelings.

"Anyways we just came to say hello. Take this." Rory threw a tiny pearl to the guild master.

"What is it?"

"If you are ever in any real danger. Crush it and we'll be there immediately. And also. What's your name, new guild master?" Rory smiled at him.

"Makarov." He said still a little lost in thought.

"Nice to meet you Makarov. See ya later!" She said and clapped her hands and they were covered with white light. And when it died down, they were gone.

"Master, what just happened? Did we really meet two founders." Lucy ran up to the counter with a ridiculous amount of excitement bubbling up inside her.

"Yes, we did. Can't believe they were alive still." Makarov said while also sighing from how tired he was.

"Master, what should be done about Laxus?" Erza said carefully from the side.

"Take him to the room on the second floor."

"I need some rest!" Makarov said and gulped down what was in his mug.
