Vol1/Chapter01/The White Dragon

Summary
Sting attends a guild master meeting at the Magic Council Headquarters in Era. He is approached by Makarov Dreyar, the Fairy Tail Guild Master about keeping the lines of communication open between their two guilds as they are the only ones that have Dragon Slayers in their ranks. Sting learns about the existence of a cult called the Penta Dragons that worships a dragon goddess that goes by the name of Tiamat.

Makarov informs Sting that two of Fairy Tail's Dragon Slayers: Natsu Dragneel and Laxus Dreyar have been followed as of late by someone they have not been able to track even with their enhanced senses. Sting agrees to pass along any information he might come across.

On his way back to Sabertooth, Sting detects a familiar scent and follows it to a seedy bar where he encounters Minerva Orland, the previous guild master's daughter, whom Sting had been infatuated with. At her suggestion they go to a hotel where they have a one night stand that results in Sting's magic being absorbed by a shape shifting Tiamat. Sting returns to Sabertooth none the wiser.
