"Talking"

Thoughts

Memory

Fairy Tail, no one knows if fairies have tails or if fairies even exist creating an endless mystery for eternity. Perhaps one day the members of this guild will choose to find out which could lead to an amazing journey...

In the land of Fiore is where the Guild lies, a guild for mages capable of wielding many different types of magic. There are mages and non-mages that live peacefully and sometimes sending requested jobs to the many guilds spread across the lands.

Fairy Tail is growing guild in both size and popularity. Ranks are placed to those greater skill, they are called S-Class wizards. Natsu Dragoneel, a powerful Fire Dragon Slayer battled against his guildmate Erza Scarlet, a S class mage able to use Requip magic and a technique known as the Knight. Natsu challenged her after a mission against the dark guild members of Eizenwald at Ochibana station.

Gray, a talented Ice Maker Wizard; Lucy, a Celestial Mage and Happy, a unique cat capable of flight are also comrades. The five of them had formed a team of sorts, as the battle had just began it was interrupted by a council messenger. Erza was being arrested for apparently destroying the Guild-masters meeting hall in clover. In truth Natsu, Gray and Erza all destroyed along with help from the Lullaby demon flute as well.

How ever Erza was merely a reason for the council to not take fault for the accidental release of the flute created by Zeref. She and sadly Natsu were both confined in prison for the night due to Natsu terrible display to help a comrade. They were all gathered in the guild hall of Fairy Tail talking among each other as the town folk of Fiore were watching a cloaked figure and a young women walk in the directions of the Fairy Tail guild hall...

"Do you always have to put them to sleep, Mystogan?" A young female wizard asked her fellow guild member and companion.

Mystogan's dark eyes connected with her own pale blue ones, he didn't have to answer her. She could tell by the look in those mysterious eyes, she had spent enough time with him to know the masked wizard well.

*Sweat drop*

"Surely there's a better way, they are fellow guild members after all. I am a little worried about staying though... It's been awhile cause of my last job. Thanks for you help with that by the way, guess I owe you again." She replied with a sweet smile for him while thinking of the last S class request she had taken. On the women's chest was blue Fairy Tail mark proudly peeking through, she wore deep blue denim shorts and a white and blue tank. The pair walked up the guild hall doors as he cast his spell. She didn't have much choice but to stay now not only was she leaning on Mystogan too much she had to get over her fear.

As they walked into the guild together several members were either fallen to the ground asleep or leaning against something trying to fight the drowsiness, "I swore to keep your secret, Tara. I won't betray you. "

There was nothing special about his answer but it made her slow down and trail behind him, his words nearly made her blush but she kept her composure. The guild Master, Makarov, looked at the two surprised to see them both. Mystogan usually came in alone while Tara tended to avoid the guild, he and the Master had gone through a lot to help her.

"Mystogan... And Tara as well?" Master drowsily stated as she gave him a warm smile.

Mystogan walked up the request board taking a request to slay a monster, "I'm going to taking jobs that take less time for awhile Master." Tara told him kindly as Mystogan walked up to her side showing the Master which job he took.

"I shall return." Mystogan informed him before giving a quick glance at Tara.

Master looked up at him swiftly, "No wait! Lift your sleeping spell before you leave!"

"Five."

Mystogan looked at Tara before he started to walk out of the guild, "Be safe." He told her as walked by her.

"Four."

Tara turned fast to watch him leave, her long turquoise blue pig tails swinging with her, "Be safe, Mystogan." Their friendship was different than the ones she shared with others, Mystogan always seemed to show up when she needed help and was on her own. He saw through her lies of not needing anyone and saw how lonely she truly felt.

"Three."

He was towards the door with slight hesitation to leave her behind, it was a weakness now on his part. They had worked together on several requests for a few years now, he wouldn't admit it but he had come to care for her deeply. He couldn't understand why but every time he could feel her pain, he could feel when she needed him and he never hesitated to come to her aid.

"Two."

Mystogan knew that she wasn't meant for a life of solitude as he had chosen. They were different more than anyone could know but he still couldn't shut her out of his life. He secretly vowed to protect her even if it meant protecting her from herself and the guild. She was worried of the power she held along with the secrets she had to carry but it was a burden she chose all on her own.

"One."

Tara watched his figure waver before it disappeared from sight as the guild members started to wake with yawns and complaints. Natsu how ever had not awoken with the rest yet but he was someone Tara tended to avoid the most.

"How long before they notice?" Tara whispered to her Master as he continued to drink his ale. Mira noticed right away, they had been friends since she joined along with Erza. Tara used to keep them from fighting each other or keep the two girls from beating Natsu and Grey. Mira was silent how ever as she came over to give her a hug not giving away her presence yet.

"Was Mystogan here again?" Macao asked out loud.

Jet cursed him for the spell, "What a jerk!"

"Why does he have to put us to sleep every time he comes here?" Levy asked no one in particular.

A new voice caught Tara's attention to fine a young blonde, "Who is this Mystogan guy?"

"Well for one he's a contender for Fairy Tails strongest wizard." Elfman partly answered for her.

Her face turned to amazement, "Wow really?"

"Yea and for some reason he doesn't want anyone to see what he looks like." Gray also helped answer her curiosity, "So every time he comes here he casts a sleeping spell."

That must be the Celestial Wizard I heard about, Lucy was her name I recall. Tara thought as she listening to them talk not far from her.

"That's kind of creepy!" Lucy comments looking a little scared.

Gray slowly turns his head in the direction of the Master as he spoke, "Master Makarov's the only one whose seen his fa- Tara!?" Grey spouted out not thinking and being surprised to see her. This gained a lot of attention, Erza's face lite up like a light bulb, Lucy was confused, Cana was also happy to see her, Natsu asleep, Macao and Wakaba were surprised like Elfman.

*Sweat drop* Why is Gray... Sparkling? "That's not true. I've seen him before, maybe not as much as lovely Tara here." A familiar male voice cut in before anyone could greet her.

"Stuff it bolt boy!" Tara grumbled at him only earning a quick moment of annoying Laxus.

"Laxus and Tara?" Elfman questioned as everyone's surprised faces grew.

Wakaba had a comment as well, "Talk about rare!"

"You two are never here." Macao added.

Tara chose to ignore the commotion around her, she knew Laxus well even if they had grown apart from one other.

"And here's another contender..." Gray pouted making Lucy even more confused.

Laxus enjoyed getting under Tara's skin, Mystogan has been a touchy subject as the two slightly grew apart, "Mystogan's just a little shy right Tara? You should all respect his privacy."

Natsu's eyes popped open at the sound Laxus's voice, "All right Laxus! You and me... Right now!" He hollered up to him with a fist raised.

"Getting you butt kicked once today wasn't enough?" Gray asked him remembering Erza's easy take down earlier.

The smirk grew on the lightning wizards face, "Yea pal, if you can't even win against the redhead, why bother?!"

"What are you trying to say!?" Erza demanded with an angry and dark look.

Gray went chibi size with his hands held up scared by her reaction, "No need to get all worked up Erza!"

Laxus held his arms out for everyone to see, "I'm saying that I'm the guilds strongest wizard!"

"I see his ego managed to grow..." Tara muttered to Mira making her giggle and the Master nod his head with agreement.

Natsu glared at Laxus ready for a challenge, "Oh yeah! Come down here and prove it!"

"Why don't you come to me little man!" Laxus egged. Tara's temper was never short but Laxus had a way of getting a rise out of her. She cared for everyone at Fairy Tail which was why she kept her distance.

"With pleasure!" Natsu jump off the table and charged past Makarov, Mira and Tara forgetting an important rule. Just before Natsu could get up the stairs the Masters fist grew huge and stretched over to slam Natsu to the ground pinning him.

"Your not allowed on the second floor Natsu... At least not yet!" Master told him as Natsu tried to get un stuck.

"You made him grumpy!" Laxus mocked.

Natsu was furious, "Shut up!"

*BAM*

The guild watched as Tara had managed to swiftly move from her spot, launch herself off the Masters fist, squishing Natsu and head butting Laxus making him stumble back. Most members were aware of their history and weren't surprised how ever Lucy jumped up in surprise.

Natsu was stunned and wasn't used to her defending him since she tried to avoid him majority of the time, "Gloating doesn't make you strongest wizard in the guild. You have no right to mock any of our fellow guild members." Her voice was calm, collected but angry. Natsu stared at her in slight amazement, something about her always felt familiar to him but she withdrew herself from him.

"You may not like it Tara but the most powerful wizard in the guild isn't some chick or hooded weirdo. You wanna know what the strongest wizard looks like? YOUR LOOKING AT HIM!"

*BAM*

Tara hit him with her fist on top of his head this time, "Can it Laxus or the guild can watch me kick your butt!"

"Try it and everyone gets to find out your little sec- -" Laxus started to call her on but that Master interrupted, "That's enough out of you Laxus! Tara come down here so I can introduce you to our newest member."

"Ya that's right, run back down little favorite!" Laxus mocked her knowing she would fight back. It was his way of keeping her by him a little longer even if she didn't know it.

Tara stopped inches from him butting her head against his own, "Says the whiny grand brat!"

"Oh yea, I'll show you whiny after I mop the floor with you!" Laxus argued back his smirk growing as he butted his own head against hers.

*Sweat drops*

The master sighed while Mira, Cana and Erza smiled fondly at the two arguing, "Sometimes those two act and sound too much like Natsu and Gray." Makarov grumbled into his cup.

"What the heck is that supposed to mean, Gramps!" Natsu and Gray demanded together before glaring at each other.

"Lightning Brains!"

"Sea Hag!"

"They need better insults..." Macao chuckled.

Elfman stood proud of her, "She's just showing him who's the man!"

"Tara's a girl." Mira pointed out with a warm smile.

"ENOUGH!" The master roared making everyone stop and look at him, "Laxus leave Tara be, Tara ignore Laxus and come down here child!"

She chose to ignore him and quickly jump down from the upper level right beside Mira once again. Erza was the first to come to her followed by Grey, Elfman, Cana and several other regular members.

Lucy was slightly hesitant, "Tara I want you to meet our newest member. This is Lucy." Master said she drew close enough to the crowd.

Tara found the girl she had spotted earlier with an elegant bow she introduced herself, "My name is Tara, it is pleasure to meet you. I must sadly admit I don't have welcoming gift for you..."

"It's so nice to meet you as well but you really don't need to get me anything." Lucy almost stuttered. She was surprised how beautiful the women was before her but it was more than that there was this calming aura around her that instantly made almost everyone relax. Lucy looked at those around the mysterious women seemed to have fond and heart warming smiles but before anyone could say anything else Tara's eyes opened wide for an instant before she looked not far from Lucy. She turned to find Natsu with Happy not far from him.

Natsu suddenly gave a small smile, "Thanks Tara. I'm glad your back safe."

"Y-Your welcome though Laxus needed to be put in his place was all." She stuttered for a moment. Lucy watched her reaction before she caught Gray shoving Natsu to the side, "Tara! I'm so happy you came back to us safely!"

He's doing that weird sparkle thing again... I'll never understand boys... Tara thought to herself with a sweat drop, "I'm glad your all safe as well."

"Does that mean you were worried about me?" Gray asked with hope, Tara gave a small smile, "I worry about everyone in the guild... I can just imagine the grief you and Natsu have caused my poor dear Erza."

*Sweat drops* "She'll never click in that he likes her, will she?" Macao whispered to Mira and Wakaba.

They shook their heads, "That's Tara for you." Mira giggled fondly.

"She is one of a kind." Wakaba agreed.

Erza was next to greet her long time companion, Tara how ever instantly pulled her into a warm hug causing the strong women to blush slightly before returning the hug, "I'm so happy to know you are safe Erza. Had I been here they never would have been allowed to put you in handcuffs."

"Don't fret, Tara. It was merely a mock trial until an idiot barged in..." She glared a Natsu.

Tara finally gave a small and short chuckle, "He meant well at least." She gave a full smile finally as well looking at everyone, "I'm so glad to be home..." She then looked at their Master who smiled and held his cup up, "Let's party!"

Somehow, I think everyone in this guild is a like in some way... Lucy thought to herself with a smile. Cheers filled the Guild as everyone welcomed back a member to their guild and family. It took some time but Lucy watched closely as she mingled, she noted how Tara kept her distance physically as if she only knew how to pass on sweet words but never get close to anyone. The aura around her remained the same, calm, collecting and relaxed but something seemed off.

Lucy just couldn't figure something out, "Mira?" Lucy asked once things started to settle down.

"Hm?"

"What is Tara's magic?"

Mira was quiet for a moment, "To be honest not many people know in the guild, when she first came to the guild master informed us to leave her be about cause her magic was to much for her own body." Lucy was listening intently but didn't miss the sad look Mira wore, "It's a secret she keeps cause the over whelming power can be dangerous... I worry about her since she keeps her distance from most of us but lately Mystogan seems to have broken down that wall a bit and she has started to open up to some of us... One day I think she will open up totally and feel comfortable with herself and her magic."

"You seem to be very close..." Lucy muttered fondly.

Mira smiled as Erza walked up to them, "Tara used to be the peace maker between Mira and I as well as Natsu and Gray, even if she wasn't around all the time... she always wanted us to be happy and never allowed anyone to cause us harm." Erza looked at Lucy, "She is special to us just as we are special to her. You will see Lucy, i have no doubt you and Tara will be friends in no time."

"I hope so..."

She wasn't sure why she had chosen the Galuna quest but she had to stand on her own without Mystogan and separated from Laxus. The reward had caught her attention, it would be the perfect welcoming gift for Lucy. She could feel his eyes on her as she spoke with Mira quickly before the young and beautiful women went back down to the bar. He had been trying to find out how Mystogan and her communicated, ever since she left the Thunder Legion. I'll never understand why Laxus hates him so much... I wish things hadn't turned out this way... Tara thought to herself saddened remembering the past.

Tara was just walking down the stairs at the guild to hear Mira explaining S-Class quests to Lucy. Most of the members were passed out or had gone home after the party, Tara had been thrilled to be home but she couldn't stay to long out of fear 'he' would discover her secret...

"Master Makarov hand picks the wizards he thinks are capable handling these job. There are only six people in the entire guild that are considered S-Class. That includes Laxus, Mystogan, Erza and Tara who you met earlier." Mira stated then looked at Tara who stopped at the bottom with a small smile.

Tara looked kindly at Lucy, "I wouldn't worry about it Lucy."

"That's right, in my opinion there's no amount of money that worth risking your life over." Mira agreed.

Lucy smiled back, "Ya no kidding."

"Are you leaving now Tara?" Mira asked already knowing she had chosen one of those very quests.

Tara nodding before giving a small wave and walking towards the door, "I should back soon. Take care Mira, Be safe Lucy."

"Bye Tara!" They said together as the young mage left the guild once again.

"Master!" Mira cried out suddenly in the guild with a huge panic struck face, "I don't know what's happened! One of the S-Class quests is missing!"

Makarov sat there for a moment sipping his coffee before he suddenly spit all out almost choking.

"Say what?" Wakaba asked with a pipe in his mouth, "One of the jobs on the second floor is missing?"

"But the jobs up there are S-Class quests. Anyone know who took of with it?" Macao asked out loud.

Mira spoke up quickly, "Tara chose the job but informed me she would leave on the board. It was a marker for if he came to find her." They all knew who he was, Mystogan always checked the boards for Tara.

"I know." Laxus voice cut in upon hearing that information with an arrogant smirk, "A little blue cat flew up here and ripped it off the board."

"It was Happy!?" Her eyes widened knowing what that implied.

Muttering filled the guild, many spoke ill of them while others pointed out that Tara would be there to assist or beat them for coming. Others noted how she avoided Natsu and that this wouldn't end well.

"That's a serious breach of the rules. Hey gramps, stunt like that will get you kicked out of them guild, am I right?" The Master stood there quietly ignoring Laxus taunting, "Not like it matters, its not like those three losers are going to make it back from an S-Class quest. Tara will either beat them for their stupidity or have to save their sorry lives."

Mira was angry while she stomped up the stairs during his speech, "Laxus! If you knew why didn't you stop him?" Mira was not only worried for their safety but also the situations her dear friend would now be stuck in.

"Oh lighten up! All I saw was a blue cat flying off with a piece of paper in its mouth trying to act all sneaky. Besides Tara avoids fire brains like the plague, can't wait to find out her reaction."

The look Mira gave him a look that could of killed most men but Laxus chuckled, "You haven't given me that look in awhile."

"This isn't good... Well which job was it?" Master asked.

"For lifting the curse on Galuna Island.."

"What!"

"Galuna Island!"

"Are they insane?"

"Their even dumber than we thought!"

"Go and fetch them at once!" The master demanded.

Laxus waved him off, "Ya right! I got better things to do Gramps, besides Tara has already left. Everyone in Fairy Tail should be able to take care of themselves right?"

"I don't care how you feel about Tara and Natsu! The fact is your the only one strong enough to keep Tara from hurting him and return with him by force!" The master argued back.

A chair scrapped across the floor, "Sorry Master but I'm afraid I gotta disagree with you." Grey stepped into the conversation. I will finally have the chance... to figure out her secret... Gray thought to himself with determination.

Mystogan's P.O.V

As I walked through the shadows after finishing the quest I had taken yesterday, I thought about Tara. I couldn't deny I was slightly worried about leaving her behind but I wasn't from here and I didn't belong at her side. When I had first met her she seemed so lonely, scared and withdrawn from the rest of the world. I still don't fully understand why I came to her aid that day but I couldn't get her out of my mind after that. The Thunder Legion had left her on her own which almost cost her life. Laxus has begun to hate me the more Tara and I are around each other. We didn't talk much, Tara never bugged me about my past but always seemed to be there when I needed her.

I realized what I was doing was wrong but I always wanted to make sure she was at my side, I know everything about her yet tell her nothing. She never seemed to mind though, she was oblivious to my feelings as well as Laxus, Gray and Fried's feelings. Those were the only people I am aware of that felt that way about her, it made me feel jealous yet I hide all of that behind the mask.

I made it to Magnolia and I managed to sneak into the guild after hours to find remnants of a trace Tara had left for me. The actual marker was missing but I could feel that she had left a marker behind so I could find her. I was so absorbed into trying to figure out what might have happened I didn't notice Laxus behind me, "So you do come looking for her... Kind of stalker like, Mystogan."

I didn't answer him as Mira also came over to the conversation, "She has gone to Galuna Island on an S-class quest." It was clear she was worried about Tara as well, I wanted to know why.

She must have noticed cause she was about to answer but was Laxus who butted in, "Don't worry, She will have plenty of help without you." A nasty smirk appeared on his face, "Gray, Lucy and Fire brains are on their way there as we speak."

Natsu! I knew why Tara avoided him as did Mira, Laxus and Master Makarov. She isn't going to be happy about this, what should I do? I didn't stop my feet from turning around and heading for the main hall doors.

"Pathetic." I stopped, "You realize she is at your side because she owes you."

"That's not true Laxus!" Mira argued back.

I looked over my shoulder at Laxus none the less, "She owes you for saving her life so many times. What's your secret her clinging to you? Two loners attract or do you keep her in your debt, which is it?"

Thanks for your help with that by the way, guess I owe you again. I remembered Tara's words before we returned to the guild. I never truly thought of it that way, did I take her with me because I thought we were alike? No! I care about Tara... The question was, did she feel that way? I didn't bother answering him as I started to walk towards the hall doors once more.

"She will be alright, Stephan is always with her on missions." Mira said quietly, "She is strong and I have faith in her. So should you..."

I didn't stop walking, "You can't save her forever." Laxus called out to me.

"If it bothers you so much," I paused surprising them both that I was talking to them, "Perhaps you should have been there to save her. She will never owe me anything." With those words I vanished from their sight before Laxus could retaliate. I had no doubt he was angry, he knew what I meant. The day I was there to help her stay alive, they day I was so lucky to meet the water dragon slayer.

Tara sighed as she walked to the docks, the sun was starting to rise in the sky, "I did it again... Stayed long enough to say 'hi' before taking another S-Class job." She said out loud to herself before sighing again. Stupid Laxus! Thanks to him I ran off again cause he caused a fuss as soon as I got there! She thought to herself this time to avoid being over heard talking to herself.

"Don't you always do that though?" An adorable male cat much like happy only Gray with pale blue spots on his head, one eyes and leg. He was known as an exceed, it was odd but Tara knew exactly where came from as did he.

Tara sighed again as she turned her blue eyes towards his own sapphire ones, "I suppose, I don't like leaving you for long though...:

"Then don't.." Tara sighed again, "I know, I know." He mumbled as his wings disappeared and he now sat on her shoulder.

"Soon Stephan... that I promise."

Once she neared the docks she decided to ask around in order to find out some information about the supposedly cursed Island of Galuna. The request asks to lift it so it didn't hurt to ask about it, she found a fisherman near the end of the dock finishing his days work.

"Excuse me, Sir." She asked kindly to earn the elder mans attention, he was slightly startled till he calmed down realizing she wasn't a threat... in his eyes anyways, perhaps it was the cat that made her appear less threatning, "I was wondering what you could tell me about Galuna Island?"

"Are ya crazy lady!? That place is cursed, Me nor any other boatman gonna take ya over there!" The man panicked almost instantly.

Stephan stifled a laugh at the crazy comment, Tara resisted the urge to roll her eyes at her long time companion. Stephan was the first friend she made after her mother left her, he was the only one who stood by her.

Tara sighed at the quick scare from the simple mention of the place, "I'm not asking for a ride, Sir. I merely wish for some information about the place for my job request." The man finally noticed Tara's Guild mark.

"Oh well, Not many know any truth about the place..." He started before suddenly going into a small rant, "I heard it was cursed by demons living on the Island and if you step a single foot on the Island you either turn into a demon yourself or get eaten by those on the Island! No one here with a boat will be willing to take anyone there, it's far to dangerous!"

Tara blinked once, twice and a third time before she sighed, "So in other words you only know rumors and have no real facts?" Stephan summed up.

"S-Sorry..."

I suppose that is to be expected, it's not like any of the boatman are able to defend themselves. So they wouldn't know anything more than rumors... Tara decided it would be best to see for herself, rumors alone aren't enough, "That's alright, Sir." She told him finally, "Thank you for your time." Tara tossed him a few spare jewels she had.

The fisherman was stunned but grateful in his hands was 100,000 jewel easily, "A-Are you a wizard, Miss?" He asked snapping out of his shock to notice Tara was walking towards the end of the dock.

She stopped when she heard his voice, "I am a Fairy Tail Wizard." She stated before walking to the edge of the dock. The man was about to call out to her but she stepped off the edge, he waited to hear a splash but heard nothing. Worried he walked to the end of the deck, he saw nothing when he looked down but as he slowly raised his head he found her familiar figure. Tara was walking effortlessly across the waters surface, his jaw dropped, "T-Thats... Amazing!" He stuttered as her figure slowly disappeared in the rising sun.

"You certainly do like the dramatic exits, don't you?" Stephan mumbled sarcastically while they started towards their destination.

Tara laughed quietly to herself remembering the look on the man's face as he had watched her, walking on the water's surface was easy for her now. Aquamarine had taught her early on because the stronger Tara got, the more she suffered from one weakness... Motion Sickness. When she learned Natsu had the same weakness she began to wonder if it was all Dragon Slayers or if it depended on their skill level. These thoughts brought up an old memory for Tara...

"Water Dragon Pounding Fist!" yelled a small girls voice before a small fist engulfed in powerful water shattered a rock before her, "Am I doing it right?" A small girl with short pigtails down to her shoulders and round ocean blue eyes asked with worry as she turned around.

Behind her was a massive dragon laying on it belly watching the girl practice her magic. The dragon was large but slender and muscular with fins down her neck, back and tail. She had two large horns on her head, colored a crystal blue with a sapphire blue accent. Her large wings were folded on her back and her large claws seen crossed infront of her. Her tail was folded around her belly ready to protect the child from and magical mishaps but it could easily be used as a weapon. Plated armor covered and protect her under belly from harm but some old scars could still be seen, "You are doing very well Tara." The dragon answer with a feminine, deep but gentle voice.

The girl beamed so happy to be praised by the one she considered her mother and parent, "Really?" She whispered happily, "Teach me more slayer magic, Aquamarine! I want to be able to make you proud!"

She earned a warm chuckle from the female dragon before Aquamarine answered, "I'm already proud of you my child!"

Tara smiled happily thinking of other spells she could create and manage to use, she wanted to be able to protect Aquamarine from those who might try to harm the dragon she loved so dearly but it didn't stop Aquamarine from leaving that day...

Tara sighed as her memory faded, she tried not to think of the past... she had made many mistakes back then. Some of them were the reason she avoided getting to close to anyone now, she would never allow them harm by others of coarse but Tara only ever stayed long enough to help or protect before she took off again.

"Tara... Tara-chan...?" Stephan tried to get her attention, "TA-CHAN!"

"Huh? Oh Sorry Stevie-chan." Tara replied regaining her senses as the two carried on.

"I hate that nickname!"

It feels lonely without Mystogan, even though he's silent. His presence makes me feel safe and reassured... Stop! I have to do this on my own or else I'll be nothing but a burden to him! Tara argued with herself shortly before feeling a deadly chill in the air. She looked down to find broken and battered ship pieces along with several types of dead fish in the sea. The water felt contaminated in a deadly aura, the feel made her heart ache. She could feel pain through the sea as if something was causing this... or someone.

The beach came into view, the Island was beautiful, there was no doubt about that but she could shake the feeling she still held, "Time to find the village I guess..." She muttered with a sigh before walking onto the Island.

"Oh joy... not!"

REVIEW, REVIEW, REVIEW PLEASE! I have spent a lot of time of this fairy tail fanfic so please me know what you think, It might be cliche at times but I hope this story is a t least worth reading.
