"So you've never tried this before, but you're sure this is safe? Somehow I don't believe that." A young man dressed in black pants a white shirt and a rather odd locking cloak told the woman outside of the magic circle. Why he had volunteered for this little experiment he would never figure out.
"Relax, you're a Fairy Tail wizard aren't you? Besides, you belong there anyway. All I'm doing is sending you back to the time that you belong to. It can't be that bad." Ultear smiled as if she were playing a practical joke with the boy. He stood in a very complex magical array, almost like the one used in the Etherion Cannon. "Even if the me of the future can't do it right, I can. I've perfected the spell. You may be slightly nauseous afterward, but that is about it. Are you ready?"
The boy nodded slightly, his crimson eyes looking at Ultear with hope. "Anything that takes me away from this place. I've stayed in this future far too long." Then a light enveloped his vision and he was sent back to the time and place he truly belonged in; Fairy Tail's true peak after the Grand Magic Games. Two years after to be exact.
Appearing outside the guild hall, he finally felt at home again, at least until he noticed something was off. This wasn't the right Fairy Tail, far from it. The building was much too big, and it wasn't on its usual hill in the middle of a forested area. No, it was in the middle of town and looked like a hotel from the outside; a hotel in the shape of a castle. There were way too many people as well, mostly people he didn't recognize and it… interested him. Seeing as his guild mark had faded due to the time travel, he did the most logical thing. He decided to join this new Fairy Tail.
