Chapter 2 ( In Fiore)
Erza's POV...Fairy Tail. Fairy Tail is my guild. I am an S class wizard. Just got done with my job request within 3 days. And it is going to take another 5 days to get back to the guild. Five days to the person who requested his job + three days to finish it + another five days to walk back to the guild = 13 days of being absent. I bet Natsu and Grey are fighting over stupid stuff while I'm gone. Once I get back, I will beat these two up if they don't quit fighting. Grey is an ice mage and Natsu is a fire dragon slayer. To me, I think they are both idiots, but they think one of them is an idiot. This town looks nice. Maybe I should go check it out. I walked through a town and saw a inn. Actually, it is an outside inn.
"Um, excuse me. Is this open?"
An old lady came out, she looked about in her fifties or sixties. She still has color in her hair, which is light brown. She wears a long blue skirt with a white sweater and a white apron. Along with the white bandana. Her hair is pulled up, but low piggy tails.
"Oh! Welcome, welcome. You may have a seat. What can I get for you?"
Hmmm. This lady reminds me of someone, but I just can't think of her. Maybe it's just me or just some people just look alike. What should I get, cake or miso soup? Maybe I should lay off the cakes for a day and get some miso soup.
"I would like a miso soup please."
"Comeing right up. You know, you remind me of a boy who used to come here everyday to get his ramen. Actually, this shop wasn't here then, but it was somewhere else. He used to come by everyday to get his favorites and never stop pestering whenever a new recipe we have."
That story she told, hmm. Some how it also reminds of another particular person. She handed me the bowl and I started eating. After I finished eating, I paid her 10 yen. Dang, this soup must be cheap! After I left the inn, I decided to camp out then just sleeping in a hotel. They are just expensive. So I decided to leave the village and headed down by the water fall. It is only 2 miles down. I don't walking this long at night, as long I find a suitable place to sleep.

As morning comes, I decided to head down to a next village, which is going to take hours on feet. So I decided to reequipped my armor so I can get to the next village within 10 seconds. My armor is just for running. But it is so fast, I can probably get to my guild within 3 hours, but I don't want to run too long. As I went to the village, reequipped to my normal clothes.
"Have you heard, there are weird people who came from another world! They don't even know what magic is!"
Great. New rumors for me to hear. You know what, I might learn something new. I walked up to the man who was just talking just now.
"Um excuse me," I said. "Can you please tell me more.?"
"Sure thing miss. Only if you pay me 200 yen."
"What?! That's a scam."
"Then you don't get what you want."
I hesitated. So I handed my 200 yen to this greedy man. I wonder what he is going to tell me about crazy people who don't even know what magic is.
The man told his story. "A few days ago, five different people came around here. They looked loss and confused. They asked me where they are, and I said they are in Fiore. It seems like that they have never heard of this place before. So I told them if they ever need help, just go to the Fairy Tail Guild, and handed them the map. The End."
"The Fairy Tail! That is where I work! And you didn't even tell me if they really don't know magic at all!" I got up and started running towards the guild. What have this old man done? These people could be from a dark guild and trying to destroy us. How can some people be so stupid that they can't snoop any suspicions.
