Author's Note~ Yoho! I am back with another ficccc! Oh well, I wanted to submit this after my exams… after 11 march, but, I wasn't able to keep myself so, I wrote it at nighttt! I wasn't able to keep myself from writing coz I was constantly thinking of this and wasn't focusing on anything else other than this soooooo was not comfortable and concentrating until I just posted ittt! xD
So, here we goooo! on to the story! ~Best Friends Forever~ / ~Best Friends for Life~ Chapter 1: Prologue/Promise to Reunion Flashback~ Erza, Jellal and Gray. The three best friends forever. Since when they were 3 years old and learned how to walk and talk… and until now, when they are 11 years old… they are best friends. They always did everything together. They were even called Jeleray by people in their city, just because, they were always together, from day to night, always… always… All of them were orphans. They didn't have parents, but, all had their fosters with them. Jellal had his aunt, Mavis, who was very kind and took care of his like his own son. Gray had Ur, his foster mother, who was very kind too, but Erza had her Uncle, Jiemma, who was ruthless. Jiemma didn't care about her at all. He didn't gave her food. Just nothing… and was just lost in his fantasies and work. Erza even suspected him being the murderer of her father, Rob. Because her father was very rich and hardworking man, his brother, her uncle Jiemma killed him for getting the properties. But, it was still all in Erza's hands. Before Rob died, he gave Erza some papers and told her to just hide it away in her box. A box which she always kept with her and it had included all of her precious things. Rob told her to hide it from Jiemma… always. And she was successful until now. Jiemma had only taken a little care of Erza until now because she had the papers of the property. Jiemma used to beat Erza many times too. Jellal and Gray, on the other hand, had totally different lives. Mavis and Ur were good friends and their children were too. Both were very kind and caring. Both were not so rich, so, Ur, Mavis and their children shared a huge mansion. Erza used to come to their house everyday. Her uncle was ruthless, so, she spent almost all of her time there. Ur and Mavis understood, and loved her like their own foster sons. Jellal, Gray and Erza were so good friends, that, Jellal even gave Erza her last name, Scarlet, matching her hair, for she didn't know her surname… and there was no use asking her uncle. Gray agreed and then Erza was known as Erza Scarlet. Jellal and Gray thought this was not serious and she would leave it once she knew her surname. But, little did they know, they were… wrong. But for now, Jellal, Erza and Gray, had the bond, which no one, not even families would have… they were, perfectly imperfect for each other. And there you have the whole history. Ahem, Thank you. One day, when they were 11 years old… they had to, they were forced to, part. Jiemma was transfering to Australia with Erza. Erza insisted to stay, even Mavis and Ur assured Jiemma, that Erza could stay and live with them for the time being, because her friends were here, but, as he was, he denied and just left. But before leaving, Erza, went to see her friends, one last time before leaving for a long period of time. On the sea shore… On the shore – at dawn~ The sun was setting…Jellal and Gray were sitting on 2 rocks… and Erza was standing near the sea…when she picked up something from the shore. "Jellal… Gray!" called out Erza. Just after Erza left, there were tears in Jellal's and Gray's eyes. They didn't want to cry in front of her so she would be leaving happily, not very sad, seeing her precious friends crying because of her. But now, they couldn't control themselves. They both hugged each other and cried. Their hearts were shattered, but, they both will hope to see her again… and will never ever forget her, her scarlet hair and THEIR memories. Same goes for Erza. She would never forget her azure and navy blue colored haired friends. She would not forget the red strange tattoo on her friend. She would never forget the stripping habits of her friend. She would never forget them… and THEIR memories, Together. They would love each other forever… and never forget about each other… forever. Jellal and Gray could see Erza's plane fly and just smiled watching it go. When it disappeared in the sky, they put their burden off their shoulders for a while, and sat at the shore, watching the beautiful… Scarlet sunset. Yes, surely, they would definitely meet again. They had no idea of how long their soon was, but, they were sure, that, their soon would someday definitely come…. Stay Tuned~ for upcoming chapters -EST

Disclaimer note: This is MY mind made story/fiction. Anything similar happening in any other fictional stories or fables or tales, is purely a coincedence.
(peoplee! Tell me in a review that what should be a better title. Which one do you think is best for this story?)
"hmm?" both answered.
"see these!" Said Erza and brought 3 similar looking shells. She had picked them up from the beach. They were all laid, together. Jellal and Gray came near her and saw those shells.
Suddenly, Erza started crying. Gray and Jellal comforted her.
"see Erza? The shells you bought? See, these similar shells might have been parted in the ocean, and might have drifited here with water from somewhere. But, in the end, they were together, yes?" said Jellal, comforting Erza.
"y-yes." Said Erza.
"Exactly! Exactly like that, we may be parted now… but, sometime in our life, we will be together again. We will see each other again! Promise!" said Jellal.
"YEAH! Promise!" said Gray too. Erza smiled. Her friends were perfect. Suddenly, an idea popped into her mind.
She took out a long piece of white thread from her pocket, cut it into 3 pieces by her teeth and passed the 3 white threads through all of the 3 shells (they had holes, yes.) and gave one to jellal, one to gray and one she kept with her.
"Tie them on your hand. This way, we will never forget the memories we shared together, and will make a promise to these shells that we will see each other again!" said little Erza. Jellal and Gray smiled.
"We promise to these shells, that, we will never forget about each other and will see each other again soon!" chorused all.
"ERZA COME!" Jiemma's shout came from behind.
"now, I… have to… go. See you… guys, soon." Said Erza, now crying a lot and suttering.
"don't cry. We want to see you off happily. Ok?" said Gray. Erza nodded. They all hugged each other very tightly and then Erza left.
