Jellal?!
Have any of you ever noticed how many Jellals there has been in Fairy Tail? Possessed Jellal, Child Jellal, Edo-Jellal, Seven-Year-Timeskip Jellal, Amnesiac Jellal, Child Edo-Jellal, and Regular Jellal. That's a LOT of Jellals. And that could cause a serious predicament. ~Mini
It had been a good day for Crime Sorciere. They had defeated a big dark guild and were heading to Magnolia by train for a visit to their friends. However, half way there Meredy noticed something strange. There was two Jellals next to her. Meredy had experienced many weird things, but THIS was new.
"U-Ul-Ultear!" She stutters.
"What is it, Meredy?" The older woman asks.
"There's t-two… Jellals…!"
"Eh? Why would there be two of him? One is more than enough."
"Look!"
And Ultear looked at Meredy. But she did not see her. She saw three Jellals. Had she been unconsciously drinking? She must be hallucinating.
"M-Meredy? Where are you…?" Ultear asks confusedly.
"I'm being crushed!" A small voice squeaks from under the three Jellals.
"Sorry!" One of the Jellals says, quickly standing up.
"Meredy! How did you get there?" Jellal number two says.
"I don't know!" Meredy replies, with a hint of irritation in her voice.
"Um… Am I drunk or something?" Ultear asks.
"I don't think you are, Ul."
"Then why is there three Jellals?!"
"I don't know, but I see them too."
"Which one is real, then?"
"I am!"
"I am!"
"That. Doesn't. Help!"
"Maybe Erza would know. There grew up together, so she should be able to tell which one is real." Meredy suggests.
"Good thing we're here, then."
"Good thing indeed."
"To Fairy Tail!"
Jellal number three still hasn't spoken.
~Fairy Tail~
"Hello!" Meredy says while walking through the doors.
"Meredy!" Juvia shouts.
"Hello Jellal, Ultear, Meredy, who are the other two people behind you?" Master Makarov says.
"That's why we're here…" Ultear says.
Remember, Crime Sorciere walks around wearing cloaks, so their faces are still hidden. Ultear and Meredy remove the hoods of their cloaks, revealing their faces.
"Alright Jellal, take your hood off." Meredy says.
All three of the people take of their hoods in perfect unison, revealing the same face on each one. Jellal's face.
"WHAT?!" Fairy Tail shouts.
Team Natsu is still out on a job. Wendy and Charla came with them. The team should be back at Fairy Tail very soon.
As if on cue, Team Natsu arrives at Fairy Tail's doors to see Ultear, Meredy, and three Jellals.
"Oi! Why is there three Jellals!" Natsu shouts.
"We. Don't. Know." Ultear says in an irritated voice.
"Hi Ultear." Gray says.
"Hello Gray."
Erza wasn't with Team Natsu at the moment. She had gone to Fairy Hills to drop her… um… 'luggage' off. So she had yet to see the predicament.
"Where's Erza?" Mirajane asks.
"She'll be here soon. She just went to Fairy Hills to drop her stuff off." Lucy answers.
"J-Jellal?!" Says a voice from outside the guild.
"Hi… Erza…" Meredy says sheepishly.
"W-why is there three Jellals?"
"WE CAME HERE TO ASK YOU GUYS THAT!" Ultear says agitatedly.
"Thought projections, maybe? Like Siegrain?"
"That only explains one. There are still two others."
"Well, one of them has to be the real Jellal."
"So, we have real Jellal and Siegrain. What about the third?"
"Mystogan?"
Jellal number three nods silently.
"How did he get back from Edolas?" Lucy asks.
"None of them seem to be very talkative." Charla remarks.
"Hello." Jellal number one says.
"I'm the real Jellal!" Jellal number two says.
"So why did you think Fairy Tail could help you?" Lucy asks.
"Because Erza is here." Ultear answers.
"What do I have to do with this?" Erza asks.
"Well, you've known him the longest." Meredy says innocently, just in case Erza gets mad.
"And you figured I could tell which one was real?"
"Yep!"
"I can try..."
"Really? Yay!"
"How did this even happen, anyway?"
"We were on the train and I saw two Jellals so I told Ultear. And then there was three Jellals. We were already on our way here for a visit, so why not see what you could do about our... Predicament..."
"So let me get this straight, two Jellals just appeared out of nowhere?" Lucy asks.
"Well, yeah. Basically." Jellal number one says.
"I keep telling you! I'm the real Jellal!" Jellal number two says.
"So if Erza wants to know which one is real, she should just spend some time with each of them. Separately." Ultear says.
That's chapter one. Next chapter will be with Jellal number one. Which one do you guys think is real? Which one do you think is a thought projection? Why did this happen? Why is Mystogan there? Why am I asking you all these questions? ...Anyway, I've been noticing that everything I write has been shorter these days. I AM SO SORRY ABOUT THAT! I SWEAR THAT I'LL MAKE IT UP TO YOU! Until next time. ~Mini
