A Railgun in Fairy Tail, Book 1: Shocking Beginnings

Enter the Electric Berserker

Mikoto Misaka opened her eyes. All around her were trees and bushes. Animals that she had never seen before scampered through the undergrowth. As Mikoto lay on soft earth she wondered two things: where was she, and was she dreaming?

Two months later:

The hooded girl walked through Magnolia Town. As she strolled down the cobbled street, townsfolk left and right were talking.-"Did you hear?"- "Yeah Fairy Tail did it again."- " I hear that Salamander guy took out an entire band of bandits". -"Yeah but the entire town was taken out too...." The girl approached a man." Excuse me sir, do you know where I can find Fairy Tail's guild hall?" The man gave her directions, than looked at her curiously. "Newcomer right? Did you come to post a job request?"

The girl stayed silent for a bit before responding " I was thinking of joining the guild..." The mans face suddenly lit up. "A new recruit? Why didn't you say so? I'm Macao, I happen to be a Fairy Tail wizard myself. Just follow me." Mikoto followed the man through the streets. Despite her joining a wizard guild, Mikoto in fact was not a wizard, she was an esper.

Espers were exceptional humans who had developed their brain to the point where they had unique psychic abilities. In another world Mikoto had lived in Academy city, a place devoted to the study of espers. But this wasn't Academy City. This wasn't even the same Earth she knew. She was a human of science stuck in a world of magic and she didn't even know why.

After two months of wandering the small country of Fiore, tales of a wizard girl with a hot temper and tendency to shock her opponents with a zillion volts began to sprout up. It was a while before Mikoto realized that those stories were about her. At first she was confused. Her, a wizard? Than she realized that because of the lack of espers in this world it was only natural to mistaken her abilities for magic. She than had another realization: she had no money and no way to support herself. So here she was following an old white mustached wizard down the street to a large castle like building.

The front entrance of the building had a banner with an emblem resembling a prancing fairy. The emblem of Fairy Tail. Mikoto paused before the door way. What would a wizards guild be like? "Well go right in". Macao said. Mikoto entered to find absolute chaos. It was as if everyone had decided to get angry at each other all at once. People where tossing tables over, shooting magic at each other, and two of them were getting into an all out fist fight. "Shut up you stripping lunatic." Shouted one of the fist fighters. This pink haired individual, for those of you who are not familiar with the world of wizards, was named Natsu Dragneel. A boy particularly skilled in the use of fire dragon slayer magic. The one he happened to be fighting was Gray Fullbuster, an ice wizard who, well.....has an unfortunate habit of.......taking off his clothes. Gray who happened to be wearing nothing but black boxers at the moment, shouted back. " Why don't you smell yourself and take a shower you fire breathing skunk!?" Suddenly Gray got in a huge punch at Natsu's face. Natsu sailed a few meters before finally crashing into Mikoto. Mikotos hood and cloak fell off to reveal a well worn middle school uniform (no money meant the same clothes everyday, something Mikoto hated like chickenpox).

Mikoto lay on the floor slightly dazed. That's strange, she thought. What's this weight on my chest? She looked up to find Natsu face down in her chest. Natsu looked up with his chin still on her uncomfortable area. "Eh? Who the heck are you?" Mikotos fist clenched up. Literal electrical sparks began to fly from her brow. "You......." Mikoto growled. Natsu, still oblivious to the danger merely responded with, "huh?" Mikoto began to glow with electrical energy. " You........PERVERT!!!!!" Mikoto kicked Natsu off and blasted him with a powerful electrical blast from her hand. Natsu flew through several rows of tables before finally flying into a bar. He lay there charred and twitching like a roasted bug. "Wh-what?" Natsu cried out weakly. Mikoto got up and rounded on Gray who looked like he was trying to blend in with the scenery. "You! Your not getting off EITHER!!" With that final syllable Mikoto blasted another lightning bolt at Gray, who flew all the way into another table, which was unfortunately holding several mugs of hot coffee.

The guild went completely silent. Everyone stopped piling on top of each other and stared at Mikoto. Mikoto ignored the lot. "Does anyone know where I can find the guild master?" Macao asked as if trying to ignore the situation himself. " This young lady wants to join wants to join the guild." Gray got up charred and covered in hot coffee. "T-this girl? But she's scarier than Erza." Natsu merely lay in the same spot and muttered the same thing as before. "Wh-what?" A beautiful white haired woman walked over. "Hi I'm Mirajane, it's nice to have you in our guild." The woman said cheerfully. She looked at Macao. "The master is out right now, but I can take it from here, we have been receiving so many members lately master actually put me in charge of recruitment." Macao nodded. "Say new member, I didn't get your name." Mikoto, still a little steamed about the recent commotion muttered, "I'm Mikoto, Mikoto Misaka.

Meanwhile, while Mikoto was still introducing herself, a small blue cat with white wings and a green pack on its back flew from a perch on the second floor to Natsu. Happy landed next to Natsu's charred body. "You really have a way with the ladies Natsu," said Happy cheerfully. Natsu merely whimpered his previous phrase. "Wh-what?"
