Well, here I am with another story. This one is a bit more unique than the others though.
This story begins after the Tower of Heaven and right before the start of Laxus' 'game'.
If you want to know where it starts in Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, or FMAB, and Soul Eater, read my other stories, Fear and Red and Black. This is a partner fic to those stories.
Special thanks to my Beta, ThatOneFangirlWithNoLife.

"We're in Fairy Tail." – words
'We're both members of team demon.' – thoughts

It was a normal day in Fairy Tail.
Cana was drinking.
Happy was eating a fish.
Levy was reading.
Erza was eating cake.
Gray lost his shirt about an hour ago.
Juvia was holding onto said missing shirt while she stared at Gray.
Natsu and Gray were fighting and calling each other names.
Elfman was shouting about being a man as he threw someone across the room.
The majority of the guild was brawling at this time.
Mira smiled at all of the chaos.
Lucy groaned.
Mira shifted her attention from the chaos to the depressed Lucy, "What's wrong Lucy?"
Lucy groaned, "I have to pay my rent. The last time we went on a mission, Natsu burned down half of the town, Gray froze all of the water in the town, which really made the people angry because the whole town is famous for their dams and hot springs, Erza…I don't want to talk about it, Taurus was knocked through the town hall, and Happy dropped a half eaten fish on my head."
Lucy's head hit the table, "We did more damage to the town than the monster did. We didn't even get paid, not that I can blame them, and master's taken down all of the missions from the mission board. *sigh* Unless we go on a high paying mission the day after the Fantasia parade, make it back a few days at most later, and don't destroy half the town this time, I won't be able to pay my rent!"
Mira opened her mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Gray, who went flying right by her.
Mira turned to face Gray, "Now now Gray, Natsu. Please behave yourselves, you know how they get when it's too rowdy in here." Mira put emphasis on the word 'they'.
Lucy was confused. She raised her head, "Who are-"
Natsu suddenly showed up and put one hand on the table and the other one on the top of Lucy's head, "What do ya mean be they, Mira?"
Mira made a fake 'keep it a secret' motion and told them, "I heard a rumor from a reliable source the other day. Two people, one of them was described as very tall, wearing scarves all over his body, with three eyes painted on the face. The other one was described as short, golden hair, eyes that are the same color, and get this. They're both wearing red and black! I was told they're coming to Fairy Tail, you know what that means?"
Before anyone could answer, Mira continued, and the words she said made Lucy shiver a little.
"Team demon is coming back."

"Well that was an interesting mission, wasn't it?"
The taller male nodded to show he was listening.
The golden haired teen continued, ignoring his partner's lack of speech, "Should we go for another long mission or do you want to do a short one?"
He received a shrug as an answer.
The younger of the two spoke again, "We should probably keep moving if we want to get a mission that suits us."
Asura stood up from the tree that they knocked down so that they could have a place to sit and continued on towards Magnolia.
Ed didn't say anything as he got up and followed his friend.

A few hours later.
The two partners made it to Magnolia a few minutes ago.
Ed asked, "So do you want to go straight to Fairy Tail, or do you want to get something to eat first?"
Asura answered, "You know I don't like staying in one place for too long."
Ed asked, "Is this about him?" He put heavy emphasis on the word him.
Neither had to say whom Ed was speaking about.
The person who ripped off Asura's skin, drained him of his blood, and sealed the two partners away in a bag made of Asura's skin.
Death.
When Asura didn't show any sign that he heard, Ed knew that he was right, "Asura, we're safe from him We're in an entirely different world. Death can't reach us here."
Asura answered, "We can never be too careful."
Ed only sighed in response.

"Clean up this mess!"
Everyone stopped what they were doing and started cleaning.
Makarov sighed, 'I'm getting too old for this. Why can't I find someone suitable to handle the guild so that I can retire?'
Makarov's thoughts drifted as he imagined himself sitting right outside a beach house, watching women in bikinis running around.
Mira noticed a bit of drool coming out of his mouth, so she walked over to him, and nudged his shoulder a bit, "Master? I forgot if I told you the news or not."
Makarov instantly became alert, news involving Fairy Tail was seldom good. In fact, it was usually the magic council complaining or a bill about a destroyed home, a bill about a destroyed town, or death notes from angry clients who's homes were destroyed.
Mira gave one of her famous smiles, "Team demon is on their way here."
Makarov gave a sigh of relief, "That's definitely better than-"
Makarov suddenly turned pale.
Mira gave Makarov a worried look, "Master? Is everything all right?"
Makarov nodded, "No, everything is not fine. I just realized that they've been in Fairy Tail for years and they've never come back for the Fantasia parade."
Mira was confused, "I'm not sure I understand what the problem is. I know that we want people in the parade, but it's not required."
Makarov pointed at the mission board, which had no missions on it, "Remember when they were new to the guild? As soon as they finished one mission, they would start another. Remember that time we took down all of the missions before they came back so that they would be forced to take a break?"
Mira remembered. The guildhall had to be rebuilt that day due to a mix of explosions, missed shots, and the support beams collapsing. Unfortunately, the members of team demon came in when the guildhall was full, and in less than a minute, everyone was adding to the chaos in one way or another.
Makarov said, "We have to put a mission up there now! We just rebuilt this place after Phantom Lord wrecked it! I am not rebuilding it again!"
Mira made a placating gesture, "Calm down, master. I have an idea."
Makarov looked at her, his eyes brimming with hopeful tears.
Mira beamed, "We tell them that the mission is to be in the parade, everyone here is going to be in it, so it won't look suspicious."
Makarov said in a serious voice, "There's only one problem with that. Money."
Makarov had tears rolling down his face, "After we spent all of that money on repairing the towns that have been destroyed by members of Fairy Tail, we don't have a lot left."
Mira looked thoughtful, "Well maybe we could-"
Mira was cut off by the door slamming open.
Everyone stopped cleaning to see who kicked the door open.
Standing there was a grinning blond in front of a tall man wearing scarves covering his face. Both were wearing red and black.
There was no doubt.
Team demon had returned.
