Hey everyone. WildCard555 here with a new story. Got inspiration for this one off of the most recent chapter(483). Main premise is what if Eileen Belserion was in Hargeon instead of the snowy mountains. I'm also assuming Eileen is Erza's mother. Hope you all enjoy.

Eileen obviously I don't know anything about you right now except for your name and what you look like so if I got you wrong I apologize. However, if I nail your character I will scream out 'Called It'(most likely waking my neighbors up in the process).

I Own nothing.


A Mother's Love?

Jellal drew in a deep breath of relief having defeated the final member of the Spriggan 12 in Hargeon freeing the port city. He felt even more hearing all his fellow mages of Ishgar cheering now that Neinhart's Historia was now gone. Looking over did he see his childhood friends' unconscious body being held by Kagura. "How is she?"

"She'll be alright." Kagura answered knowing the redhead just needed time to rest up and she would be fine. "She might be out for a while, but she'll be alright."

"That's good." Collapsing to one knee.

"Jellal." Though still having ill feeling towards the man Ishgar needed them working together to force the Alvarez Empire back to their own country. Gently she got Erza into a position she could lay down comfortable. Walking up to him did she scan over him with her eyes looking for wounds. "Are you alright?"

"Yeah." He answered felling light headed. "I just used more magic than I should have." Scolding himself on the inside for the embarrassment being a form Saint Wizard. "Emotions must have gotten the better of me." Seeing Erza the way he did, and his old friend Simon through Historia.

Looking around did she see the wrecked ship they stood on was slowly sinking. "We can rest once we get back on land." Watching as the man stood up.

"Yeah." Starting to walk over to Erza to pick her up until he heard what must have been a staff hit the deck of the ship. Having barely heard it did he feel himself barely able to stand up feeling a great gravitational force heavily weighing him down. "What the?" Looking over to see Kagura too was having a hard time standing up.

Though she possessed gravity magic herself she couldn't get it to relieve the pressure being exerted on her. "It must be another Spriggan."

"Indeed." An emotionless mature female voice spoke drawing the attention of the Ishgar Wizards.

Looking to where they thought the voice was coming from did the unlikely allies see the owner. They saw a tall woman with long thickly braided red hair with two braids in the front one each side with two more braids on her back side. She was scantily dressed in what must be a witch's garb. Her black top ended just above her belly button with a diamond shaped opening with a white trim with hearts in the chest revealing the lower part of her large bust. Starting just above her crotch was a black loincloth with her counties emblem that was just wide enough to cover said crotch that went down just past her knees exposing her legs down till her thigh-high black boots covered the rest of her legs. She wore black gloves ending just past elbow that had silver claws on the tips of the fingers. Between her top and her loincloth was a scare on the left side of her abdomen. In her right hand was a staff that split towards the top that made it look like antlers that had a leopard skin design. Finally, her face looked like a more mature version of Erza's.

(A/N: I know Eileen had a cloak on, but she was in the snowy mountains for that shot. Here she is in sunny Hargeon. So for this fic I'm taking the cloak off.)

"Now be quiet." She ordered turning from the two to Look down at the battered unconscious younger redheaded woman. Looking at her barely covered chest by those loose white bandages that looked like they may fall off just from her breathing, and those red tattered samurai pants that now looked like a skirt. "How pathetic you are."

Anger flared in both Jellal and Kagura towards the older scarlet-haired woman as she belittled their Nakama.

"To think someone of my blood couldn't beat one of my fellow Spriggan 12."

"Someone of my own blood?" Kagura asked lightly.

"Or should I say my daughter." Dumbing her words down to the simpletons.

"WHAT?" Both Jellal and Kagura yelled.

"A daughter I never wanted." Holding back from hitting her in any manner as it could easily kill her with the state she was in. "You should have beaten Neinhart no problem with the blood running through your veins."

"That's because she's still injured from beating one of the other Spriggan 12 in your initial attack." Kagura defending the woman who saved her as a child.

"Still pathetic."

"Stop calling her that." Jellal nearly barked.

Partially ignoring the man. "You should have been able to beat both of them by yourself." Being informed that Ajeel's defeat was a team effort on the Ishgarians, and witnessing Neinhart's fall. "Tell me boy." Not bothering to look at the man. "Why does she look so young." Recalling those years. "She should be near her 30's(Erza started the series at 19 + I'm assuming she's aged 2 years up to this point + The 7 year time jump = 28. Rounding up to 30), yet she looks to be in her early 20's."

"Jealous." Uttering the one word in defiance only for her to strike the ground with her staff again increasing the gravitational force of her spell forcing both him and Kagura to their hands and knees hard.

Hearing two sets of hands slap the ships wood floor. "Test me again." She threatened mono-toned.

In a minute Jellal explained what happened on Tenrou Island years ago.

"Still no excuse why she couldn't defeat Neinhart, or Ajeel by herself."

"How can you talk about your own daughter that way?" The last image Jellal had of his own parents were of them trying to save him from the slavers who took him to the Tower of Heaven.

"As I said I never wanted her." Running her finger down the scar on the left side of her abdomen. "I only had her so I could move up the ranks."

"You had a child only to get stronger?" This time Kagura was the one to shout.

"August can be a cruel man when it comes to his experiments." Still touching the scar

A new wave of fear ran through Jellal. "The Magic King." Having only heard rumors of how terrifying the man was while a member of the magic council.

"I don't know much, but I know he wanted a potentially powerful child to aim a project originally made by the Emperor himself. Something called the Tower of Heaven, or was it the R-System."

Nightmares of the Tower flashed harder for Jellal than they did when he saw Simon through Historia no less than ten minutes ago.

Though Kagura never entered the Tower she still had nightmares of when her village was attacked by the slavers.

Remembering nearly sacrificing the woman he deeply cared for in attempts to revive Zeref with the R-System. "You'd do that to your own daug..." Feeling like his back just got hit by his own Meteor Spell with even more pressure being put on him that made the wood beneath him start to crack.

"I will not say it again. I never wanted her. I never even so much as held her." No longer touching the scar. "The moment she was cut from my womb I told them to take her away to do whatever August had planned to her."

"All that just so August would train you?" Memories coming back to him hearing of him having a powerful apprentice.

"It cost me a year and a half of my prime." Looking at the two trying to fight her magic to stand up and fight her. "But it was worth having his child to receive his training."

Putting things together. "So August wanted a child with high potential to try revive Zeref using the R-System?" Now understanding why Erza was so powerful, and kept getting more so. She's the daughter of Alvarez Empires two most powerful mages.

"I suppose so." Never wanting to know anything about the screaming brat she birthed. Unfortunately, August insisted on her knowing what was to be the child's fate. "If the Emperor really was gone what better host to his new body than of our own flesh." Years later seeing the Emperor simply return to them. "But it turns out my liege was alive all along so the project was all for nothing."

"ALL FOR NOTHING!" Jellal yelled more flashbacks of the Tower racing through his mind. "THEY NEARLY KILLED HER! THEY NEARLY KILLED EVERYONE IN THAT TOWER MAKING THE R-SYSTEM!" Now standing up. He attempted to cast a spell, but before he knew what hit him did he find himself in the ruble of a freshly destroyed building in Hargeon. "What happened." He gasped body racked with an intense pain all over. Before passing out he heard people outside shouting to find out what happened.

Though knowing little about love she could tell through his anger that the man she just took care of must love, or be in love with her daughter.

CLING!

The sound echoed through the air as Kagura's unsheathed sword clashed with the Scarlet haired woman's staff.

"UGGHHHHH!" Kagura dropped her sword Archenemy to the ground. Looking at her hands did she see them covered in her own blood and both in immense pain. "FUCK!" She screamed as her whole body was shaking in pain dropping to the ground.

"That's a nice sword you have there." Bending down to pick it up. "Not too many weapons survive touching my staff." Holding it up in the air still inspecting the magnificent blade. "Erza might like this." Seeing as she fancied weapon play.

Barely hearing what she heard. "What?"

"I'm taking your sword." Claiming her spoils.

"NO about Erza?"

"I'm going to give it to her."

More than sure her Nakama would know the blade was her's. "I thought you said you didn't want anything to do with Erza?" Heads starting to spin from blood loss.

Tired of dealing with the younger woman. "I didn't." Pausing. "Until now." Using her magic did she lift Erza off of the ground. "I've learned a lot because of you." Running her finger down her daughter's soft face, the first time she ever touched her. "And even more once I was done training under your father." Her staff began to glow as she prepared to teleport them away. "It's my turn to experiment on you."

Realizing she didn't know the enemies name. "What's your name?" Desperately needing to know it before she passed out, or the enemy left with Erza in hand.

"The Scarlet Despair." Readying to teleport away.

Reaching out did Mermaid Heel's strongest mage try to save the woman known as Titania, but couldn't do anything as she watched the two scarlet haired woman disappear in a quick flash of scarlet light. "Erza!" Screaming both frustration and pain unable to do a single thing to save the woman who saved her. Just like Jellal did she pass out hearing others yelling to check out the sinking ship she just lost consciousness on.


Unaware of how much time had passed since losing conscious did Erza find herself resting in an unknown room, the armor she was in last fully reapaired...no reinforced, and even more alarming her head resting on the lap of a woman who looked like an older version of herself staring lovingly at her. "Who are you?" she asked groggily unable to take her eyes off of the woman who ran her fingers through her hair. Feeling a slight sway did she guess they must be on a boat.

Still running her fingers through the younger woman's soft silky red hair. "My name is Eileen Belserion."

"Eileen Belserion?" Never hearing of the name before.

"But there's another name you can call me."

"What?" Unsure why she felt so safe resting on this mysterious woman.

Smiling down at her daughter. "You can call me Mother." Leaning down to kiss her on the forehead. "My beautiful daughter Erza."

Feeling tears falling down both sides of her face. Sure this could easily be a lie, but in her heart though not even having a single memory of her did she know the truth was being told to her. "Mother." So many questions running through her head.

"Shhh." Calming her down. "The fighting is over." Assuring her she was safe. "Just focus on getting better." Reaching behind her to grab a blanket she soon covered her daughter with.

How badly Erza wanted to sit up to hug her. If only her body didn't feel like lead. Hearing 'the fighting is over' did many questions run through her head, but even though she just woke up did she feel herself quickly falling asleep again. "Will you still be here when I wake up?" Desperate to know anything she would learn about her mother.

"I will be here when you wake up Erza." Eileen assured her daughter watching as she slowly drifted back to the world of dreams. "I'll be here to answer all your questions once you've recovered enough to ask them."

Turning to her side did she pull her arm out from beneath the blanket and wrapped in around her mother's waist. "Mother." Peacefully falling asleep.


And with that there's the first Eileen Fairy Tail fanfic(at least I think so). How'd you guys and gals like it? Which version of Eileen was the real Eileen? The one Jellal and Kagura meet, or the one Erza is using as a pillow right now? What about August? Should I continue? Is that enough questions?

Until next time my lovely readers.

Have an awesome one.
