Fairy Tail Fanfic: I Will Protect This Family for You

"Have you heard of Leona, the [Fire Lion]?" "I've only heard of Natsu, the [Fire Dragon]. I don't know any [Fire Lion]." "You're out of the loop! Didn't you hear that the group considered Fairy Tail's strongest mages all went missing on Tenrou Island, including their guild master, Makarov?" "What? Really?" "Of course! They say Leona, the [Fire Lion], only just joined Fairy Tail recently!" "Is she an idiot? Without those strongest mages, Fairy Tail is bound to decline. Why would she join a guild with no future and no money?" "Who knows? Maybe she really is an idiot." This is a story about an idiot who wants to protect the most important home of the person she holds dear. Please do not repost. At first, I wanted to write a Leo fanfic, but I had no inspiration. Would anyone want to hit me if I said that originally I wanted to pair someone with Gildarts, voiced by Inoue Papa? But then the original story revealed that Gildarts' daughter was Cana... I gave up on the idea. I won't covet a man who already has a family... [Why do you sound so disappointed? You obviously wanted to pair someone with him, didn't you?] In the end, the pairing is Laxus. To make up for Leo losing his chance to be the male lead, I named the heroine Leona, which also means lion. This is expected to be a sweet short story of under 100,000 words. Don't expect any thrilling adventures or life-and-death battles. This is just a story I came up with on a whim for my own enjoyment. I can't rule out the possibility of writing Laxus out of character, but I still hope you all enjoy it. Theme:
