Far, far away is a land called Fiore filled with magic and mysterious creatures like no other. But one creature stood out the most. Dragons. It was rumored that dragons watched over the lands and dominated the sky. And that on rare occasions a dragon would take in a stray child, and raise them as their very own. Teaching them the wonderful and powerful magic that was used to kill dragons long, long ago. Dragon slayer magic. There are many stories of dragons. Legends and myths, some true some false. But the story I am about to tell you now dear reader, is one of a kind. And in every way true. It all started with a black dragon that barred the wings of darkness, named Acnologia, and a guild by the name of Fairy Tail. On one fateful day the lives of many will change forever. A more specific start to our story is a few months after the tenrojima incident. Fairy tail had lost many members and money now that almost everyone was gone. Macao had taken the position as 4th master. Romeo, his son had recently joined the guild and begun to learn fire magic. But now we must move forwards a few years. More like 7 really. Fairy tail had sent out yet another search party. Unbeknown to them this would be the last search party ever needed in a long, long time. Yes dear reader Fairy tail's main members were back! Sure they were a bit beaten up but what do you expect? They were supposedly dead for 7 years. Oh how they rejoiced. Endless parties and celebrations. Now our story truly begins just a few weeks after the return of our Tenroujima survivors. Shall we begin dear reader?

No one really knew if it was possible for dragons to take the form of humans. Of course they weren't really known for it. Nor did Humans know enough information about dragon's capabilities. So in retrospect when a girl about the age of 13 suddenly appeared at the gates of Fairy tail, no one even had the slightest clue to what she really was. No one would even dare guess that the blue-black haired teenager was really a human hating evil dragon who had been punished to live among humans for 10,000 years. But one thing for certain, is that many lives would never be the same. Ever again.

"Um... guys, I think she's starting to wake up."

Acnologia slowly opened her eyes to be greeted by 3 worried faces. All female. The first to speak had long white hair, deep blue kind eyes and a reddish pink dress.

"hello there! My name is Mirajane, you sure we're asleep for a long time." Acnologia slowly tried to sit up only to cringe in pain.

"Don't move too much, your body is still weak from a sudden drop in magic energy, the pain shouldn't last long but for now just rest here." The woman who spoke had pink hair and red eyes. She wore a red cape that had little horns on the collar. Strange her voice and smell felt familiar. 'do I know her?' The former dragon thought.

The third person in the room was smaller than the others. And had yet to speak. she was most likely younger. She had long blue hair and kind brown eyes. The girl wore a green dress that had a diamond pattern. On her left arm was a blue guild mark. Acnologia's eyes widened as a fragment of memory surfaced.

"Fairy...Tail...?" She questioned. The others were slightly puzzled. Something about this strange girl was familiar. Scarily familiar. The youngest spoke up.

"My name is Wendy; do you remember anything that happened to you?"

The dragon tried to look back on her thoughts but nothing came to her.

"I- I can't remember much. All I know is that that mark has to do with my past." She pointed to Wendy's shoulder amazed that she could form sentences. This piece of information seemed only to puzzle the trio further.

"do you remember your name?" Asked Mirajane. "it could help us find out more about your past if you tell us."

Acnologia thought for a second. Could she tell these people her name? She had a feeling that her relation with the guild was not a cheery one. Taking a deep breath she mustered the courage to speak once more.

"Acnologia, I think."

All of them froze with shock. Acnologia? THE Acnologia? The big black dragon that seven years ago had supposedly destroyed Tenrojima and killed most of Fairy tail's members? Really!?

Acnologia looked upon them with a scared and worried face.' Oh no I knew something was up! I can tell by their faces, they must hate me!'

The dragons eyes started to water and a single tear escaped to her cheek. The dragon felt her now human face with surprise and fear. Wiping the tear with her finger she discovered an unusual... Feeling.

"Um I think I'm leaking."

The three mages contemplated her claim, and started to laugh.

"you're not leaking silly, you're crying." Wendy giggled.

"Crying?" Again the three other mages laughed. And soon Acnologia began to giggle as well. Yet even though the three showed happy expressions, the dragon couldn't help but feel the thick tension in the room. Mirajane left immediately, saying she needed to get the master and alert him that their little stranger was awake. Moments after the woman left the ex-dragon felt a sharp stab of pain in her head and chest. Suddenly all she could see we're images. Images of a black dragon with bright blue patterns all over its beaten body. There was a bigger red dragon standing tall over the smaller black dragon. The landscape around them was dark, hot and fiery. The red dragon roared loudly and struck the smaller dragon as it tried to stand.

"YOU SHALL PAY FOR YOUR FOOLISH ACTIONS. WITH THE AUTHORITY BESTOWED IN ME I, IGNEEL BANNISH YOU TO EARTHLAND AND STRIP YOU OF YOUR DRAGONHOOD."

With that a bright beam of light Rained down on the abused black dragon. Striking its chest. When the light faded all that was left was a small girl with black hair streaked with blue highlights. She wore tattered black dress and had bruises and scars all over her petite body. The red dragon- whom declared himself as Igneel carefully picked up the tattered girl in his jaws and took to the sky. The scene began to fade and soon Acnologia was back in the infirmary of fairy tail.

Screaming.

As soon as the pain came it faded to a subtle numbness. Acnologia felt herself shaking uncontrollably. More people rushed up the stairs to see what had caused the sudden outburst. Acnologia hugged her legs and hide her face petrified of the memory.

A shrill scream filled the guild hall. Making every one jump. Mackorav, Mirajane and Poluchka ran up to the infirmary to seek the source of the noise. As the three rushed in they were a little shocked at the scene before them. The stranger who claimed to be Acnologia was in a petrified state. Hugging her knees close to her small and fragile body.

"What happened here!?" Demanded Poluchka as she approached the ex-dragon.

Mirajane looked from the worried blunette to the calm composure of Mackorav.

"Master?"

"What is your name child?" The question silenced the room. Thickening the tension. Acnologia hesitated. Something about this small man was calming yet demanding. Not wanting to disobey, she spoke.

"A-Acnolog-gia." Her voice shook like the rest if her body. Unlike the others this fact did not seem to affect the old man in any way.

"You remembered something, didn't you?" He opened one eye. His face wore a blank expression.

"Y-yes, I did." Acnologia gulped before continuing." I remembered how I turned human, and who turned me human..." The sentence trailed off as if the missing words would only bring more confusion.

"And who might that be?" The master questioned. If his suspicions were correct she should say,

"Igneel."
