BlackLynx17: Hey everybody! I meant for this story to be a one-shot for the chapter where we all discovered Mest's past as a Fairy Tail member, but it didn't turn out that way as I wanted to write more and more so I decided to make this into a full story. I've been trying to get my cousin to love this couple for so long and when she read that chapter she was like, "I don't mind Wendy with that young Mest, if you wrote a fanfiction about those two I wouldn't mind." So here it is! A fanfiction about those two! It happens right after everybody gets back from missing for seven years, but before the games. I hope you like!
She was… falling… falling down… a rabbit hole? This wasn't Alice in Wonderland though, so what was she doing falling down a hole? How did she even end up in this hole? Wendy turned her body position around in the air so she would be falling down standing up, pondering on what had happened as she held her dress down from rising up.
She was walking back home from visiting Porlyusica along with Charlie through the forest. They weren't that far off yet, the house was still in sight behind her, and yet… she tripped? Maybe? On a root or something? She knows she tripped because her ankle hurt a bit. So she tripped and fell down a hole, maybe not a rabbit's because rabbit holes weren't big enough for a person her size to fall into, but this endless falling was reminding her of Alice in Wonderland so she thought rabbit hole in her mind.
And she was still falling, right now. If only Charlie would have fallen with her then she could have flown them back up the hole, but Wendy was by herself right now. She was falling, and falling, and falling, and without stopping it was endless. Nothing passed by her, the walls around her were covered with dirt and roots sticking out. Whoever made this hole, it was sure-
"Ah!" Wendy gasped, everything turning colorful and bright.
So bright it was blinding, so blinding she couldn't see, so blind that she didn't know what was going on anymore. Did she pass out? She didn't remember what happened, but somehow she was on the ground again. She was lying on something, and when she clenched her hands, she felt grass and dirt and small twigs stabbing into her skin. Wendy slowly opened her eyes and saw all this greenery from the grass to the trees.
Her head was pounding, but she forced herself to get up and take a look around. Where the rabbit hole dropped her off… it was the exact same place as she fell down from. She was still in the forest- and look there! She still saw Porlyusica's house in the distance! Was that-that all a dream? Did she somehow trip on something instead of falling in a hole? Hitting her head rough on the ground causing her to pass out? She certainly didn't see a whole around her for her to fall into.
If that was the case though then why was she still just lying here? Wouldn't Charlie have carried her back to Porlyusica's house to check up on her if she passed out? Where was Charlie in the first place?
"Charlie?!" Wendy called out.
She leaned against the tree next to her to help her walk and started looking around, "Charlie! Ah- ooh- my head," Wendy groaned lightly clutching at it.
Great, her head was hurting and she was all alone in the forest with no clue where her best friend was. Maybe something happened to Charlie too? Wendy couldn't think of any of reason why Charlie would abandon her other than to get help or if something happened to her! What if she was hurt?! Wendy started panicking, forgetting all about herself as she worried what was wrong with Charlie.
Fairy Tail. They would help her, they might have been helping Charlie, she might have gone there to have them help her! Wendy started making her way to Magnolia, hopefully to find Charlie and some answers. Could it been that Charlie fell down the hole too? Or a different hole and landed somewhere else? Or maybe she didn't know Wendy fell and kept going on? Or maybe? Maybe? There were millions of excuses, Wendy would only find out when getting to Fairy Tail though.
Upon entering Magnolia… there was something… different about her town. She didn't… was it her imagination? Or something? Or maybe- what if she didn't- did she just not pay attention at all to the stores as she walked passed the streets? Was this all in her mind or just?
"Maybe I hit my head harder than I thought."
The further she entered Magnolia though, the more she thought that she was correct. There were buildings and stores she didn't recognize at all or even heard of; signs and decorations that she didn't know… but the streets… they were all the same. If the streets were the same though then why was everything else different?
"How long have I been out?" Wendy asked herself rubbing her head.
She didn't think they could have redecorated and changed the whole town in the short time she was gone- unconscious? She couldn't have been falling for that long… although it did feel that way. Wendy slowly changed her walk into a brisk jog and then her jog into a run as she started running to her guild. What was happening right now? What was going on? More and more buildings started appearing that she didn't recognized and when she started heading up the hill, her heart relaxed seeing the familiar grass lands heading up there.
At the top would be her guild and everybody inside, maybe even outside fighting and passed out drunk like always. Like always! Like always! Like- Wendy's heart froze as she stood on top of an empty hill. There was nothing there, no guild, no farm, no animals walking around or friends passed out outside on the grass. There wasn't any sign of Fairy Tail once being on this hill, there wasn't any sign of anyone living on this hill.
What was- what was going on?! Why wasn't anybody here?!
"HELLO?!" Wendy yelled running around the hill.
"MASTER?! NATSU! LUCY! HAPPY?! CHARLIE! GRAY! ERZA! ANYBODY?!" She started yelling looking all around for them, for any of them.
There were no answers though; she was just screaming alone in the air for no one to hear. Her eyes widened as she started freaking out. There's no way, what was happening- what was going on-!
"Fairy Tail was just here! It was just here!" Wendy started yelling at herself, trying to convince herself that it was the truth, "our guild was right here! Even if it was destroyed or burned down, there isn't a single trace of it at all!"
It was like her family and guild was wiped off the face of the Earthland. She didn't know how to explain this, she didn't even know how to begin to explain this. She was panicking too much though, right? She was thinking too much about this, maybe- maybe they did move! Maybe she's been asleep for weeks? Months? Something that explains this! Maybe someone else would know?! Know something! Know what in the world was going on!
Wendy turned around and started running back downhill, back into Magnolia, crashing into the first person she saw, which was a man. He held on tightly to her, afraid they were going to fall over, and widened his eyes seeing the tears in her wide and scared eyes.
"Hey, please, please, Fairy Tail! Fairy Tail! Where is Fairy Tail?!" Wendy cried holding onto him tightly.
"Over there, over there near the end of the town!" The man gasped out in shock.
Wendy turned her head to where he was pointing at and started running. He pointed in the direction where, where their old guild was located. That guild was no longer their guild though, it was old and unusable after them being gone for seven years; there shouldn't be anything there but ruins. Their new guild was on top of that hill, and it may not have been that nice looking or good in shape, but it was still her home! That home wasn't where it was supposed to be though and now, apparently, it was moved! Did that mean her friends took their guild and moved it back to their old place or something like that?
… the thought wasn't completely crazy and it was very doable for a group of power-strong wizards that were in their guild. So that was it, her friends must have missed their old spot and moved there home back… well home. Yeah, yeah, yeah? Please yeah.
She nearly fainted when she got there at the sight of the guild, falling to her knees. A guild was there, a guild sporting the signature mark of Fairy Tail, but it wasn't her guild building. It looked completely different from the one on the hill and from the one she's learned to love seven years ago. She didn't know what it looked like now; it wasn't as big before and a little bit more rough looking, but the Fairy Tail insignia was there.
It didn't make sense to her.
"So-so-so-they rebuilt the guild smaller? And-and-and tore the other one down? But-but-but none of that made sense with how long I've been sleeping? Or gone? Or-or-or-or- was I in a coma?! A coma! A-a-a-ah-" she started whispering to herself, her mind going crazy as she ran her hands through her hair recklessly.
"Whoa, are you okay there Miss?"
Wendy let out a glass shattering scream at the top of her lungs, nearly loud enough to make someone death. She knelt down on the ground and covered her ears as she screamed out, shaking her head side to side over and over again as she tried to make sense of all of this. She was going crazy, she was going crazy! No! Better yet, this was all still a dream! Yeah! She must have been dreaming! Still falling down that hole for so long she just fell asleep and-and-and-
When the screaming stopped Wendy was still wide awake and much calmer than before. She took a deep breath and sighed it all out, wrapping her arms around her shoulders and rubbing at them up and down to calmed herself even more.
"Sorry to bother you."
Someone walked passed her and Wendy looked up, seeing this boy walking towards the entrance of Fairy Tail. She didn't recognize the member from his back and reached out, calling to him as she wanted to ask some questions.
"Wait! Excuse me, but is this really Fairy Tail?!" She asked.
The boy flinched and turned around to address the girl who just screamed out when he tried to talk to her. Wendy's breath got caught up in her throat as she saw his face. Those eyes… that scar… his hair style was exactly like- he looked exactly like-like-like
"Uh… yes?"
She fainted. Right then and there she fainted. The boy jumped up and teleported over to her, picking her up and slapping her cheeks a few times to wake her up.
"Come on, come on… oh no. What the heck am I supposed to do now?!" He asked himself.
Well he couldn't just leave her here, obviously, and there was a guild behind him where someone could actually help him. The boy sighed and held her in his arms, standing up to bring her inside. He paused for a moment staring at her, really noticing how she looked like. Her hair was a weird color and so long, longer than most of the girls he knew at such a young age. She sort of looked like an angel sleeping, not a crazy people who screams at random people when they asked for help.
His eyes widened when he saw her shoulder, a familiar mark making itself known to all.
"You're… Fairy Tail?"
