I love the Tartaros Demons. Specifically, Kyouka, Seilah, and Jackal. So, I decided to write something for them. Hope ya enjoy, dear alligators!

I don't own Fairy Tail

It was another sunny day in Magnolia. The townspeople went about their business as usual, bustling about the buildings. On the far side of the town, the Fairy Tail guild was as boisterous as always. The guild members joked and laughed with one another, playing games and practicing their magic as they waited for a good job request to come through.

Ever since the final defeat of Zeref and Acnologia, the guild had been slightly wary of any new threats happening. However, as a year came and went, and the next one after it, the guild members began to relax and fall back into their usual routine. Of course, Master Makarov had shaken his head when he realized that he couldn't even get the release of death from being Guild Master and conceded that he could last a few more years.

Erza and Wendy occasionally spoke of the encounter with Eileen, but for the most part, both were willing to put the entire thing behind them, with Erza holding the slightest bit of fondness for finally meeting one of the people who had conceived her. After the battle, Wendy had conceded to becoming even more powerful so she could combat that kind of threat again. Sheila was all too happy to help as best she could.

Mira and Natsu conversed every once in a while about the fact that, even though his book was gone, all of Mira's demons had remained, despite being products of Zeref as well. They came to the conclusion that Mira's life force may have been keeping them sustained, but it still made little sense. After the first few months of speculating, they just shrugged it off.

The guild hall and the town of Magnolia had been rebuilt in record time, the townspeople celebrating Fairy Tail and the other guilds saving them from Acnologia once more. This time, the hall had been built with extra sturdiness, as everyone had gotten much more powerful during their year away from one another.

Another of the typical fights had broken out some time ago and the group was still tussling and horsing around with one another. Erza had gotten dragged into the fight by one of Natsu and Gray's stray fireballs and ice picks respectively. Once she joined, the battling dwindled slightly, but as Gray and Natsu were still intent on winning and Lucy actually decided to participate on one of the rare occasions she chose to, the fighting was far from over.

With all the roughhousing going on, it was a wonder anyone could have a regular conversation. However, as Erza was more wont to join in the boisterousness, Mira remained away from it. No one in the guild was stupid enough to get Erza and Mira involved. It would spell death for all.

Over at the bar, Mira served drinks and snacks to those who were not intent on the death match. The bar had been built with four open sides, so it was easier for her to serve everyone. It also allowed for her to get larger mugs to Cana if necessary. As the card-wielder spoke with Macao about combining some of her flame-resistant cards with one of his lighter attacks for a joint sparring move, Mira went about refilling Elfman's mug. He and Lisanna were relaxing on one of the benches, commenting on the fighters' strengths and weaknesses.

Mira suddenly fell to her knees, eyes wide as wisps of smoke began rising from her body. Her cells started to tingle, the kind of tingle right before you try to move a leg that fell asleep. Tiny pinpricks had started cropping up all over, stabbing at her arms and torso.

The rest of the guild watched her worriedly, some of them standing in concern when she didn't get up immediately. The smoke formed billows now, rising and swirling around the whitette's body. Lisanna and Elfman rushed to their sister's side, hesitant to touch her in case they made it worse. "What's wrong, Mira?" Lisanna asked. "What's happening?"

"She's calling me," Mira said in a voice not her own. "She's calling me back."

This only served to worry everyone more. "Who's calling you, sis?" Elfman inquired slowly, confused.

Mira grit her teeth together as all of the pinpricks hit at once, burning through her body and rippling down her back. A strained scream tore from her throat as her eyes shut in agony, her muscles spasming painfully as everything flashed white. She could see it. The book sitting in her hands. She could feel the light caress, the gentle soothing touch. She could smell the scent of trees and forestry, the aroma of damp earth swirling around her. None of this was uncomfortable, however. In fact, it was just the opposite, having a calming effect on her mind as the burning, stinging sensation continued penetrating every inch of her physical form.

All of the other wizards watched in horror as Mira threw her head back with a scream, her visage suddenly beginning to flicker. Lisanna and Elfman gasped as Seilah's body switched back and forth with their sister's, as if one was attempting to overcome the other. Both women were screaming, tears streaming from their eyes as the shrill sound grew hoarse and grating. Finally, all of the smoke swirled around Mirajane and engulfed her completely, the scream breaking off as she was swallowed up.

Everyone waited for the smoke to clear, finding Mira returned to herself once more. The whitette groaned, her entire form shaking subtly as she fell forward against Elfman. "Mira, are you okay?" Lisanna demanded, placing a comforting hand to her sister's back.

"Was Seilah trying to take control of your body?" Elfman asked, holding his big sister steady.

"She's gone," Mirajane whispered hoarsely.

All around started in shock at the words. "What?"

"Seilah. Someone must have found her book. They called her back to the book." Mirajane sighed wearily, leaning heavily into her siblings. "She's no longer one of my Take-Over abilities."

"So, what does it mean now?" Erza asked slowly, with steps closer. "Does it mean that someone else has her?"

"It would seem so," Mira responded. "Whoever has her book now has her."

"This could be bad," Gray muttered. "Is Tartaros coming back or something?"

"No idea," Natsu shrugged. "But if they are, they better leave us alone this time. We won't hold back if they attack again."

The rest of the guild stared at him before shaking their heads at his optimism. Going about their business, the magic-wielders put the loss of the demon out of their heads. None of them figured it would actually come to fruition anytime soon anyway, especially if it was a new cult. Mira was a bit sad as she had fought long and hard to defeat Seilah, but she supposed it was better that the brunette return to her book.

Miles away, in the mountains outside of Magnolia, a clawed hand shut the book within its grasp, swallowing the smoke that had flowed forward. A heavy sigh filled the air of the cavern as the owner of the hand sank to the floor. A groan quickly followed as the book was pressed to a well-endowed chest, the person finally sinking fully into a laying position.

Kyouka was well aware of her condition. She knew that summoning Seilah was likely to use the last of her life force. She had used the majority of what little power she had left after the battle with Fairy Tail to hunt down both their books. If she managed to summon Seilah, she knew that her mate would be re-energized enough to summon her in return, but that was only if she succeeded. Eyes narrowing, Kyouka growled to herself, "No. I cannot afford to fail. With Zeref no longer being of this world, Seilah and I will finally be able to live as we wish without the influence of Mard Geer. I must try."

Lifting to her knees, the greenette gathered all of the energy she could and opened Seilah's book, beginning to chant the incantation. Warmth filled her body, starting at her toes and shooting up her legs before soaring up her spine. She knew that the Curse power within her was strong enough to do what would normally take at least three humans to do. The magic that sealed Seilah slowly began swirling around the cavern, the breeze not affecting Kyouka as the demoness focused on her task.

She could feel the familiar presence of her love, the embrace of warmth that only Seilah could bring to her. She could see the gentle smile that her mate reserved only for her. Finishing the incantation, Kyouka felt the power build in her stomach, gritting her teeth desperately as a form began materializing before her, smoke swirling all around the entire cavern. At last, the greenette screamed as the power exploded from inside her and she fell to the ground as the form began taking shape and substance.

Blue eyes blearily stared up as a pair of black-stocking clad legs slowly walked closer, kneeling before her. The green-haired demon felt something soft lift her head and that's how she knew it was her love. The only touch she could ever feel was Seilah's. She smiled as she gazed up at the brunette, the purple eyes she had missed for the past few years twinkling down at her. Lifting her hand, Kyouka stroked the pale cheek of her mate, allowing the last of her essence to leave her and finish Seilah's summon.

At last, they were back together.

Next chapter is when the fun starts. Hope ya stick around for it!
