Chapter 2: First Mission!

Reader's PoV

It's been a week since I'm stuck here at Fairytail. I really enjoy my stay here but the goddess told me that there's a task that i needed to do before i go back.

I really not happy of the thought of leaving here but maybe after my task I'll just ask the goddess or make a wish so that i can live here forever.

"(Y/N)!!" I heard Mirajane Called me.

I look over to her and saw that she was holding a piece of paper. She smiled at me and place the paper in front of me.

"This would be the best first mission for you! You only need to guard or escort a daughter of a noble not so far in the northern part of magnolia. The pay is also huge."

I look at the poster and it said that they will give me 50,000 jewels.

"Why are they giving such a high value on a escort mission?" I ask her.

"You see. There's a rumor that a guardian of a certain forest was killing people near the northern parts and the family is worried to send their daughter to her boarding school and the only way to her school is to enter the forest. You're also strong and i think you'll be fine." She explained.

I think about what Mira said. I only need to escort their daughter and protect her and I don't need to defeat the guardian.

"There's also a quest on defeating the guardian but Natsu, Happy, and Lucy took the mission and left just awhile ago." She added.

Now that she said that. Lucy also ask me if i wanted to join them but i was so sleepy to say yes and only bid my goodbye.

"Then I'll take it!" I said as my eyes sparkled. "This will be my first mission!"

"Then would you mind if i join in, (Y/N)?" I heard a voice ask.

"Are you sure, Erza?" I ask her.

"Sure. I'm actually planning on taking a quest but if it's your first mission i would gladly to accompany you." She smiles at me.

'ahh!!! Erza is so cool!!' I screamed inside.

"Thanks Erza!"

I pack a few clothes to change and some foods and went to the guildhall where Erza and I will meet.

"Let's go, (Y/N)!" Erza carried mountain of luggage.

"What's all of this for, Erza?" I ask her.

"My things of course." She said.

"But can you just equip? Well nevermind." I sweatdrop and sigh.

Erza and I took a carriage to the Mansion of Gregory. As we went in we saw a beautiful lady waiting at us Infront of the mansion.

"Welcome to Gregory Residents. The Miss will be here shortly." She bowed as the doors open revealing a lady in blue dress.

"You must be the mage/wizards of Fairytail?" The lady ask.

"Yes. We are here to escort you safely to your boarding school." Erza said.

"Then I'll be in your care." She smile and went inside her carriage.

The ride went smoothly but as we enter the Forest where a guardian reside the horses began panicking.

"Easy there. Easy." I calmed them down but they were still tense.

"You're good in taming a horse, (Y/N)." Erza complimented me.

"Well the old guy in magnolia thought me when i was passing by." I said.

"Is everything alright there?" The lady of Gregory Mansion ask.

"Yes. No need to worry we will pass this forest without a problem." I reassured her.

I could feel that someone was watching, no. More like observing us.

"FOUND YOU!!!!" I heard a yell.

Erza and I look at the source of the voice and saw A certain pink haired with a fire in his fist.

"Is that Natsu?" Erza ask.

"Yeah. I heard they take the mission on defeating the guardian." I said.

Then suddenly a huge monster behind us appear.

"It's Huge!!!" I screamed.

The horses sped up as Natsu beat up the Giant Wolf with Lucy and Happy.

"I'll assist them, (Y/N). Protect the Lady." Erza commanded.

"Yes."

The guardian was tailing us while Natsu was chasing him. Erza equip a sword and slash it but it was smart enough to dodge and escape.

The wolf disappeared and suddenly appear in front of the carriage.

The horse halted and i swear i heard a thud on the carriage.

"Are you alright?" I ask her.

"I don't think so but I'm fine at the moment." She replied.

"Forgive me but i think we'll be walking throughout the forest." I said as i saw the guardian was about to stamp us.

I immediately take Lady Victoria and flew towards Erza and the others as the carriage was crushed to pieces.

"Oh (Y/N)! Didn't know you were here!" Natsu smile.

"Yeah." I chuckled as i put Victoria down.

"Stay back, Victoria. We'll be dealing with the guardian. Looks like he really doesn't like for us to enter the forest." I said as i look at her.
