Mavis walked around her new guild, staring in wonder at the beautiful hall.

Warrod, Yury, and Precht looked on.

"Well. This is quite a treasure, isn't it?" Warrod remarked, crossing his arms at his chest. He looked around the new building.

Precht chuckled.

Suddenly, the wooden door swung open. A black-haired girl came rushing in, tugging a cart with a tall box of cake. Her eyes were sparkling.

"The cake is heeeeeeeere!" Zeira called.

Mavis looked at the girl in front of them and then the cake, eyes wide. She loved sweets to the max, and didn't refrain from rushing over to take the box. She carefully placed the cake on one of the guild's tables.

"How are we going to eat all this?" Yury exclaimed.

Mavis turned to the man. "Well, those are just the columns holding up the second layer...we have five people, erm...we can eat this for breakfast, lunch, and dessert?" Mavis replied hopefully as she peeled off the tape.

"That wouldn't be really healthy, though..." Zeira replied, unsure.

Mavis gave a pout but continued working on the tape. She wanted to make the best out of her opportunity and eat cake whenever possible.

Zeira helped with the rest of the tape, and threw the sticky pieces of plastic away. She looked at Mavis and nodded, reading each others' minds.

"Three!" Mavis yelled.

"Two!" Zeira shouted.

"One!" and together, they opened the box.

Now everyone, even Precht, gasped in surprise.

The cake was two layers tall, like a wedding cake. It was white and smooth as marble. The guild mark was painted onto the top layer. Designs of roses and lilies made by the frosting surrounded the cake. Little bobble-head figures of Fairy Tail's co-founders, Mavis, Precht, Zeira, Warrod, and Yury were arranged in a circle at the top, surrounding the symbol of the guild. They seemed to be sitting on the circle of fruits, which were kiwi, strawberry, kiwi, strawberry...

"That is adorable!" Mavis squealed, leaning into the table and pressing on her bobble-head figure to see it bounce its head up and down.

"Mavis," came a voice behind her.

Mavis spun around. She looked at her friend and then the box she held. Her eyes widened.

Zeira handed her a wrapped large gift box. "This is for you," said the raven haired girl, grinning.

"Oh!" Mavis smiled back at her best friend. "Thank you!" Hesitating, she added, "is it fine if I open it right now?"

Zeira nodded repeatedly like a bobble-head doll. "Of course! Open it, open it! I want to see your face when you open it!"

So Mavis carefully took off the tape to leave the wrapping paper undamaged.

Everybody watched carefully as she took off the blue box's cover.

They all gasped at Mavis' present.

"A fairy!" Mavis breathed, her eyes glimmering with joy and excitement as she carefully took the figure out of the box.

A figure of a dancing fairy stood at the center of the box, her beautiful rose-copper hair held up in a hairstyle that was braided around her head. Bangs dropped at her left eye and over her forehead- her hair appearing to be blown to the side. Two pieces of hair were left out of her braid purposely, side-swept as well. She wore something like a shawl like Mavis' that covered her shoulders, chains that came around the neck and were connected to another set of chains slightly lower, where below the chains in the center was a oval-shaped amethyst. A belt goes around the arms in the shawl like wavy clouds, and a small green gem was placed beneath it. The skirt that came out like petals, green and hemmed with pink, ending about at her knee. Her legs were adorned with green vines, where golden wings of a pegasus is attached to the vines like the sandals of the messenger god, Hermes. An olive wreath adorns her head, coming to an end at her forehead, right above her eyebrows. Her wings' pattern had all sorts of curves and were transparent, but it was a certain shade of green. The fairy, barefooted and fragile, was simply breathtakingly beautiful.

Mavis slowly touched the fairy's wings. Biting her lip, she turned to her best friend and curled her up in an embrace.

Then a tear fell from her face, and she started to cry.

"This is," Mavis sniffled, "the best thing anyone had ever given me!"

"You believe in the fairies," Zeira said. "You've always loved them and believed they were real. So I thought that maybe you'd like this!"

"Like it!" Mavis exclaimed. "I love it!

Zeira smiled. "I guessed right."

Warrod and Yury exchanged glances.

Breaking from the hug, Mavis wiped her tears. Then she looked around at her guild mates. "But...what about everybody else?" Mavis asked Zeira.

"Yes, everyone else gets a present too!" Zeira said, and rushed over to the cart. She gave a box to Precht, one to Warrod, and the last one to Yury.

They thanked the girl, and opened their packages. Precht recieved a pack of throwing knives, Warrod some rare seeds to use for his planting magic, and Yury received a few smoke bombs for convenient escapes. Zeira had taste for weapons and gifts.

"But..." Mavis looked around- "what about you, Zeira?"

Zeira shrugged. "I'm fine with what I have," she answered.

Mavis shook her head. "I'll find something," she said. "I'll make it myself! After all, I can't just accept your present without giving something back!"

"Maybe...later," Zeira replied. Suddenly changing her character, she added, "But for now, let's just celebrate the opening of Fairy Tail!"

The members cheered- the sound of five people; but Fairy Tail was only a new guild after all, and five is better than none.

"Beer!" Yury hollered, holding up two bottles of alcohol. He had went to the guild's kitchen for drinks.

Warrod scuttled over and nudged Yury by the arm. "There are minors in here, Yury! You can't expect them to drink!"

Yury groaned. "They can have something else to drink..."

"Fruit juice would be nice," Mavis and Zeira said at the same time. They both heard their low conversation.

A minute of silence passed before them until Precht spoke.

"Alright. Fruit juice," he answered.

Yury poured two glasses of juice and the rest, beer. Each person got their own glass and already drank a bit, but Mavis was feeling a bit festive.

She held her own glass up.

"This is our guild," she announced. Everyone in the guild turned to her. "We will live in the light and shine through the dark! We will stop the evil and those who threaten the innocent! We will stand up tall, help our comrades and friends, and be proud as a member of..." She raised her glass taller. "Fairy Tail!" Zeira, Precht, Yury, and Warrod raised their glasses.

"To Fairy Tail!" The five voices combined as one, glasses going clink as they hit each other.

After the celebration, Mavis ran around the guild, looking at certain things and corners and furniture with her present from Zeira closely held in hand. The wings on her ears perked up as her curiosity raised.

And then she felt something behind her.

Or someone.

A tinkle.

Sparkles.

Glitter.

Mavis slowly turned around. She gasped at the person standing behind her.

No. She wasn't even a person.

She was a fairy.

The same fairy that Mavis held close to her arms.
