Chapter 1: Introductions
“Hey, wake up you moron, do you want to be late?” A boy about 16 of age yelled,
trying to wake up his little brother in the most annoying way possible.
“Dude, stop it. Stop hitting me, I’m getting up… OUCH! STOP IT!” The 15 year
old boy leapt from his bed, and tackled his brother, causing both of them to
collapse on the floor.
“Shut up you two, cut the shit and get ready for schoo… ARGH!” The 17 year boy
tried to inform, them only to get hit with a shoe on his face.
“Oh….”
“Shit….”
“WE’RE SCREWED!!!” Both the 16 and 17 year old boys squeaked in unison as they
tried to run away from their monster of a brother.
“GET BACK HERE YOU COWARDS!!!”
They all ran through their big spacious house, while the 17 year old tried to
capture his younger brothers. They yelled insults at each other, which
eventually lead them to waking up the rest of the household.
“When I get my hands on you guys, a shoe’s not gonna be the only thing I throw
atcha!”
“Catch me if you can, you behemoth bastard!” the 15 year old teased as he
barely escaped his brother’s massive arms.
“Oh I plan on it you small shit, and you too fucked face!” The 17 year old
declared, almost grabbing both of his younger brothers.
“Guys, stop it, you’re too loud.” A soft voice from a 6 year old girl called
out.
“Guys, stop. Dad said not to use foul language around her!” A 14 year old boy
called out beside the the girl, while covering one of her ears,
“He’s right gus, shut up!” the other 14 year old boy (they’re both twins)
agreed and covered the other ear of the girl.
Pretty soon, the whole house was full of yelling, insults, punches, kicks, and
even biting.
“BOYS! QUIT YOUR BICKERING AND GET READY FOR SCHOOL, NOW!!! A booming voice
called from the house. “AND HELP YOUR SISTER GET READY ALSO!”
“YES SIR!” All the boys instantly stopped their fighting, and went to their
rooms.
“Come on sis. Let’s get you dressed.” The older of the twins said while
grabbing her tiny wrist.
“Thank you.”She thanked, and was led to her room.
~~~~~
“You started it.” The 16 year old boy accused while grabbing his clothes.
“No I didn't, you were hitting me with the pillow.” The 15 year old boy
replied, then they both fell in a silence, as they try to figure out what to
wear.
Now, for no more confusion, the 16 year old boy’s name is Gajeel, the third
oldest. He has long, spiky, rough, midnight-black hair. He has ruby red eyes,
and a bunch of piercing on his face, When you get closer to him, you can see
several scars over his right arm. He is tall for his age, and has very defined
muscles over his body. Gajeel is kind of the punk of the whole family, but even
though he seems tough, he is secretly a big softy.
The 17 year old boy’s name is Laxus, the second oldest. He’s the brute of the
family, and a loner. He has great, bulging muscles, and is very tall. He has a
cool lightning scar on his right eye, and an awesome tattoo design swirling on
his right arm and pec. Laxus’ son yellow hair and baby blue eyes, are the only
thing that seem to remind people that he is not scary. He may look like he
wants to kill everyone within arms length, but deep down, he’s a teddy bear.
Sting is the youngest of the 14 year old twins, which makes him the second
youngest, and Rouge is the of them both, making him the third youngest. Just
like their older brother Laxus, they both have a facial scar, Sting has his
over his right eyebrow, and Rouge’s is over the bridge of his nose. They both
are also tall for their age. Even though they are twins, the couldn’t be any
different from each other. Sting has platinum blond hair while Rouge has raven
black hair, Sting has pale blues eyes while Rouge has dark cole eyes. Sting is
the happy, positive, energetic, and naive one, while Rouge is the emoish,
neutral, realistic one.
Wendy, the 6 year old is the youngest of all of them, she is kind of like the
reason why the house hasn’t broke down yet. She is a pale fragile girl with
blue silky hair, big brown eyes, and just plain cute. She has a sweet
personality and adores Rouge.
And last, but Certainly not least, the 15 year old boy, and the middle child.
Natsu. Natsu has beautiful jade eyes with some flecks of gold, sun-kissed skin,
and a very contagious smile he gives. He has a scar on the right side of his
neck, and very cool-looking “fangs”. Natsu has a toned body, but he is also
short and lean, he is even shorter than his younger brothers, But size doesn’t
matter to Natsu, he may be small, but his heart is huge. He’s a very loyal
friend, kind, and is actually very smart, even though he misses the most
simplest things. One major feature on Natsu, is his cherry blossom pink hair.
Not a lot of people have his hair color, especially boys, that’s what makes him
more exotic.
“Okay Natsu, what do you think of this outfit?” Gajeel is wearing ripped black
skinny jeans, a plain dark grey t-shirt, leather jacket, black high-tops shoes,
black fingerless gloves, and sunglasses resting on top of his head.
“I mean, you look stupid no matter what you wear, but ya, you look fine.” Natsu
smirked to himself as he heard his brother growl at him. “How about me, how’s
my outfit?”
Natsu had black skinny jeans, a cherry blossom colored shirt with black
sleeves, black high top converse with the white lace, and large gold wire-
rimmed glasses, resting on his tiny nose.
Gajeel stared at his little brother speechless. “I honestly really want to say
something mean, but I can’t. You actually look really good Natsu, I can’t deny
it.” Gajeel said, giving Natsu a brotherly smile.
“Thanks Jeel. Let’s go brush our teeth.”
On their way to the bathroom, they met up with Laxus who was wearing a plain
purple button down shirt, tight leather pants, a big blue coat with fur lining
the seams that hung on his shoulders, brown boots, and black beats that he
wears around his neck.
They all made their way to the grand bathroom and met up with Wendy who was
wearing a blue plaid shirt, dark grey skirt that was a little above her knee,
and white converse trying to brush her teeth. Sting and Rouge were in there
fixing their hair, Rouge was wearing black skinny jeans, a black low neck t-
shirt, a black and white plaid shirt tied around his waist, and black faux
leather boots. Sting wore a plain white shirt, light blue jeans, and white
adidas high tops.
All of them were brushing teeth, or fixed their hair quickly so they wouldn't
be late for their first day back in school. They all checked each other before
heading downstairs to meet their dad in their huge chefs kitchen.
“Wow dad, it smells amazing in here, what did you make?” Sting asked while
plopping himself on the kitchen counter.
 
“Some fruit salad, eggs, bacon, and a little bit of creamy wheat. Dig in guys.”
The man with red flaming hair, golden eyes, and a soft but strong voice said
while handing out plates.
“Okay, what do you want Wendy?” Rouge asked his sister.
“Some fruit salad and creamy wheat please.” She answered politely.
“I’ll take all the bacon!” Natsu loudly announced, making his way towards his
‘prize’.
“Natsu! It’s not all just for you!” The man scolded Natsu with his booming
voice.
“Ugh! Fine! I’ll take a little bit.”
They all ate while talking, wait… arguing until Mr. Igneel (their father)
yelled at them to shut up and finish their food. Again, they quickly stopped
talking, and finished their food.
As soon as they were done, they got up, rinsed their plates, and placed them in
the sink. They all split apart and went to grab their bags.
“Does everybody have everything they need?”Mr. Igneel questioned before opening
the door.
“Yes.” All of them answered in unison.
He opened the door and let all of them pass then grabbed Laxus stopping him at
the doorway. “Wait. Laxus, a word?”
“Yeah, sure what’s up?”
“Guys, you go ahead in the car, okay?” He called out.
“Kay dad!” Natsu said then made his way to the car.
“Wassup dad?” Laxus asked with concern.
“Well, you know all of you guys have been through so much growing up. I just
want you to be there for them if anything goes wrong. Since Cobra graduated
last year, I’m bestowing this task to you.”Mr. Igneel placed a hand on Laxus’
shoulder giving it a little squeeze.
Laxus sighed. He knew that all of his siblings, including him, have gone
through hell. He still can’t figure out how all of them and him, are can even
smile and function. He guessed that it had to do with their weekly visits to
their therapists, or maybe since their adoptive dad (yes, they’re all adopted,
except Wendy, she is Mr. Igneel’s stepdaughter) took them in, and was very
patient with each kid he took in, and loved them all dearly, that they all
healed. Well, at least a little bit.
Laxus has occasionally had nightmares of his past. Once out of the many times,
he had his so bad, that he woke up screaming and crying. His siblings all heard
him, and went over to his room and watched their second brother fall apart
(this was two years ago when Cobra was in the house). They didn’t laugh or
tease, because they knew they all had their giants they needed to face, and the
hell they’ve been through. All of the siblings all held on to Laxus, and guided
him to the guest room, and they all slept there snuggling together giving
reassuring words to Laxus.
They have had their moments of breakdowns, including Wendy, and they all
usually end up sleeping in the guestroom multiple times when they all see one
of their siblings crying.
Laxus shook himself out of his thoughts, and stared back into his dad’s eyes.
“Yeah, I’ll be there for em’. Don’t worry dad, I won’t let anyone hurt em’”
“Thanks Laxus.” Mr. Igneel stood on his toes and brought Laxus into a hug,
being completely engulfed in his arms. “Alright, let’s get in the car.”
They both reluctantly pulled apart from the hug, and made their way over to the
car, only to see all the boys fighting while Sting and Rouge covered their
sister’s ears. Mr. Igneel told them all to shut up, and once again, they
fighting stopped. He started the car, pulled out of the driveway, and finally
navigated his way towards school.
