Omarnosian10: Hello, readers. The gang isn't here because I want to talk to you alone. I read a few reviews and I want to apologize for not giving Zero10 credit for the previous chapter before I edited it. I didn't want to start from scratch because editing is quicker. And I also heard that a few people don't like the BenXEvergreen and OCXMira pairing. I made the former pairing because A) I read Zero10's the Guardian of Fairies Fighting Festival Mini-arc, and like that one, I want Ben to be a good influence on the Thunder Tribe so they can fake the threat, like the Guardian of Fairies, and B) I notice that there are very few crossovers involving Evergreen in the pairing, so I wanted to make an original Ben 10 pairing. About the latter pairing, Lewamus Prime gave me the idea for the OC and wanted him to be paired with Mira. Since The Galactic Defenders are similar to Power Rangers, I decided to add him like a Sixth Ranger. And one more thing about the pairings. I told Ultimate10 about the optional pairings, Ben and Evergreen because Ben brings out her nicer side, or Ben and Bisca because she and Alzack have a sibling relationship like Shadow and Rouge in my Hedgehog 10 stories, Kaz and Cana because they both use cards, or Kaz and Erza, because their abilities are similar, and Ultimate10 personally likes Evergreen and wants me to pair Kaz with Erza so the JellalXErza pairing wouldn't occur. I don't blame him. And I'm glad that someone likes that I put an OC form (not alien or human) in the first chapter. And now to do something I didn't think to do last chapter. Credit goes to Zero10 for the entrance scene and descriptions of both character and places. Now then, ON WITH THE SHOW!
Chapter 2: Welcome To Fairy Tail
(Fiore)
Fiore is one of the countries located on the Earth Land. In the year X622, Fiore was confirmed as a permanent neutral nation with a population of almost 17 million people. Fiore is located on the westernmost peninsula. It was surrounded on three sides by ocean, and had land borders with Bosco and Seven. Additionally, Caelum and Fiore combine their sea trade is a state in which the current regime is a monarchy and is ruled by a King named as Toma E. Fiore, who is also the head of the government. Next to the King is the power exercised by the government. The part of the government responsible for the supervision of the Magic and the guilds is the Magic Council. It supervises guilds, including outlawing their activities, has the ability to appoint Wizard Saints, gives official orders and sends complaints to the Guild Masters. The capital is Crocus, and the monetary unit in Fiore Kingdom is Jewels.
(Magnolia City, Fiore)
Magnolia Town is a city located in Fiore. Magnolia has a population of almost sixty thousand inhabitants and is a merchant city that has been prosperous in magic since the ancient era. Such reputation was supported by the fact that the town house was the strongest Guild in Fiore and a guild, from which various legends were once born, or rather, will continue to be born long into the future. And its name is Fairy Tail! Magnolia is located in the southeastern part of Fiore, with the sea and Hargeon Town not too far to the south, a series of minor built-up areas linked to it by a railway line to the north, and the state boundary with the nation of Bosco to the east. Magnolia possessed a large built-up area, extending over a large, rectangular surface to the shores of Lake Scilliora. Splitting the town vertically and horizontally was a series of large roads. The whole place is western in style, with its buildings being mildly reminiscent of neat medieval ones. Located almost in the middle of the town, overlooking Central Path, a horizontal road where events and parades are held, was Kardia Cathedral, one of Magnolia's most important and distinctive landmarks. In the northernmost part of the city, sitting on the shore of Lake Scilliora, was Fairy Tail's building; to the west, on a hill overlooking the built-up area, was the Guild's female dormitory, Fairy Hills. In the southeastern section of the city is the train station, which, to the west, had the HalfCocor Hotel Bar, the Toy Store Tom and the Magic Store Lendis; north from the station, on the town's western border, was the entrance to the park. It was already day. The citizens of Magnolia were busy with their respective works while our little team of heroes kept their first foot in the town. As the team strolled through the busy streets of Magnolia, they continued to receive many glances as well, mainly because Chase's clothes are non-profitable in Earthland. Ignoring the glances, the Bakutrix bearer was really impressed by the appearance of the town. It was nothing like the busy dull cities back in his Universe. Here everything was so much alive. He felt like he was dreaming. And the best thing around here was that he could be the first one to invent stuff from his universe to show his brainpower.
"So here we are in Magnolia!" smiled Natsu while waving at the town before the team.
"Aye!" chirped Happy while hovering around. Lucy's eyes were bugging out while a dumbstruck expression cast over her face.
"I had always wanted to join Fairy Tail and now I am standing in Magnolia. I still can't believe this." smiled Lucy.
The group continued to march through the streets when something crossed Chase's mind.
"You know what? We know nothing about you and the Guild." exclaimed Chase while getting stares from the others.
"Yeah, we didn't get enough time to talk this morning. Anyway, I use Fire Dragon Slayer magic." informed Natsu much to the surprise of others..
"Does it mean that your magic is meant to slay Dragons?" asked Lucy.
"Yes, but I never tested my abilities!" replied Natsu ignorantly. If he has power to fight a dragon then it certainly meant that the pink haired boy is really powerful.
"Dragon Slayer magic is an ancient magic. There are only few wizards who can use Dragon Slayer magic." explained Happy.
"So how come you learnt this magic?" asked Lucy, her voice seemingly lack that interest as if she don't believe this.
"Igneel had taught Natsu!" answered Happy.
"Igneel?" repeated Chase confused.
"Igneel is the foster father of Natsu. He is 'The Flame Dragon King'. A Fire Dragon who had adopted Natsu when he was little and had taught him the Dragon Slayer magic." explained Happy, sounding as if this is something common out in here. Lucy's jaw dropped in awe. She was so much stunned upon conceiving this news that her eyes are bugging out of socket and would fall any moment. However, Chase wasn't dumbstruck since he can turn into Dragon-like Bakugan and Kaz can turn into Dragon-Type Duel Monsters, so he isn't that surprised. Finally, the Celestial wizard broke the intense silence that seeming started to spread.
"You mean that Natsu has lived with a Dragon? A Dragon?" asked Lucy. Happy nodded
"But if this magic is meant to deal with Dragons then why did Igneel taught it to Natsu? Does he want Natsu to wipe out all other Dragons from the planet?" asked Chase concerned.
"No, but this is the only way to learn Dragon Slayer magic. Only a Dragon is capable of teaching this magic." smiled Natsu.
"You got to be kidding me!" shouted Lucy in utter disbelief.
"It's truth." stated Natsu.
"So where's Igneel?" asked Chase. However that question seems to take away the cheerful demeanor from the Dragon Slayer while a hurt look cast over his face.
"He had left a very long time ago. Ever since, I had been looking for him; whenever I hear a rumor, I head out and start searching." answered Natsu.
"To fight him?" guessed Chase hoping otherwise.
"No, I really wanted to see him. It's been a long time." sighed Natsu sadly before he felt a hand on his shoulder. Natsu looked up to see Chase.
"I know how it feels like, Natsu. When I was a baby, my original father planned to turn me and my siblings into super soldiers. My uncle took us away from him and raised us like his own, which is kind of ironic because we thought that he was our father. My step-brother found out about my original father's plan when he used an android to befriend us and threatened to reveal our bionics to the world. When me and my siblings found out the truth, we were momentarily devastated and after we escaped from my original father's trap, we realized that our uncle is our true father. We nearly lost him in a few occasions. We both had some father issues, but we'll eventually work it out." explained Chase, getting sympathetic looks from the wizards.
"Chase, I had no idea." said Lucy with small tears in her eyes, thinking about her own father.
"Don't worry. My uncle and father eventually worked out their issues and we became a great family." smiled Chase. Happy and Natsu smiled, glad that Chase worked out his family issues.
'I wish my dad is like Chase's uncle.' thought Lucy while wiping her tears.
"And you went to Hargeon because you mistaken that Salamander for a Dragon?" asked Lucy, changing the subject. The pink haired Dragon Slayer adopted an expression of thought for a moment before he returned back to his cheerful demeanor.
"Yep!" grinned Natsu.
"A giant…fire Dragon in Hargeon?" asked Lucy.
"Aye!" chirped Happy.
"What were you thinking? What would a Dragon be doing in the middle of the town?" deadpanned Lucy while others sweat dropped at the revelation. Natsu simply laughed in response.
"Natsu, she got a point. If Igneel was in Hargeon, you could've seen him fly over you or be able to see him a few blocks away." agreed Chase.
"Look! This is our Guild. Fairy Tail!" smiled Happy as he points at a large building.
Chase and Lucy glanced up and were dumbfounded in response as soon as their eyes laid on the guild. The Guild happened to be an imposing building consisting of three floors and incorporating several architectonic styles: it took on a shape reminiscent of a pagoda, with each floor being smaller than the one below it and sitting on the latter's roof. The roofs also bore great resemblance to those of real pagoda, consisting of extremely long, arched tiles lined up one after the other and possessing simple curved protrusions jutting upwards on the building's angles. On the highest roof, topping the summit of the building, sat a simple, round and pointed dome, highly reminiscent of those seen on Arabian buildings, which bore a flag on its point. The roof below the one with the dome, the middle one, housed a large banner with a symbol on it, held up by a pair of vertical poles. The building's large entrance was again Arabian in design, with its shape being reminiscent of that of the dome on the summit, and above it was the guild's name, topped by a protruding, stylized heart shape and flanked by a pair of carved fairies. Stylized heart shapes were also visible on the frames of the numerous, large pentagonal windows located on each floor, with the top floor housing smaller, arched windows partially covered by banners.
"WOW!" exclaimed Chase and Lucy in unison. Surely they had never seen anything like that before. Chase himself had never witnessed such a beautiful building in his entire bionic life and his entire 2 years of being a Galactic Defender.
"This Guild stood for the past 100 years, since Fairy Tail had been created." informed Happy.
"And not forget to mention that this is the strongest guild in the Kingdom of Fiore." smirked Natsu, grinning widely with his arms crossed over his chest.
"Chase, there you are!" cried a familiar voice. The gang turned around to see Kaz, Jack, Kim and Drake.
"You got my message?" asked Chase. The Galactic Defenders nodded before looking at the wizards. Chase noticed before he stood between them.
"Guys, this is Drake Orion, Kim Crawford, Jack Brewer and Kaz Lunason. Guys, meet Natsu Dragneel, Happy, and Lucy." introduced Chase.
"Wow, you look exactly like me." noted Kim and Lucy amazed when they approached each other. It's true. If they didn't have different eyes, they would have looked like one of them is looking at a mirror. Happy and Natsu looked at them with their jaws dropped while Jack approaches Chase.
"Are you sure we are in an alternate universe and not a parallel one?" asked Jack confused.
"I'm sure. I scanned her DNA and compared it to Kim's, and they don't match." answered Chase with a nod before he noticed their leader's absence.
"Where's Ben?" asked Chase as everyone turns their attention toward him.
"I thought he was with you." shrugged Kaz, along with Jack and Kim, while Drake sniffed the air.
"He's heading in this direction, and (sniffs) he's not alone." answered Drake.
"Wow! I didn't know you're a Dragon Slayer, with the keen sense of smell!" smiled Natsu with stars in his eyes, making Drake sweat drop.
"I'm not a Dragon Slayer. I was raised in the jungle and I foraged for food since I was 11." informed Drake.
"What happened to your parents?" asked Happy. Drake looked down with his messy hair foreshadowing his eyes.
"They were killed." answered Drake while holding back tears.
"Sorry, dude, I didn't mean to bring back bad memories." apologized Natsu. Drake looked up with a smile.
"No worries. Let's just go in." smiled Drake.
"Welcome to Fairy Tail!" chirped Happy flying over Natsu while the latter one flashed a toothy grin, not even bothering to look back at his new acquaintances. He prepared to open the door in an excited fashion, just knowing somewhere deep in his heart that others would love it.
(First Floor, Fairy Tail Guild)
"We made it back alive." shouted Natsu. His excitation was clearly evident by the entrance door being sent flying away.
"We made it home." chirped Happy flying behind the shoulder of the Dragon Slayer with a smile spread on his face.
"You could have simply knocked the door!" deadpanned Lucy.
"Maybe he has always been this excited whenever he returns back to the Guild." guessed Jack, trying to make logic. The gang followed the pink haired wizard inside of the Guild. They noticed the inside of the Guild was similar to a large lunch hall, and mainly consisted of wood, possessing a parquet floor and a mezzanine held up by wood beams overlooking it. Several long benches and the related tables stretched across its length with a bar at the end. A board was located beside the bar with many different notices and requests. However, the most noticeable things were that, this was less of a Guild where work is carried on and more of a club inside. Everyone seemed much laid back and relaxed but that seems to be only before Natsu arrived. The first one who noticed and greeted the pink haired wizard was a man of average height, distinguishable by his brown hair, which is kept in an ostentatious pompadour-like style that protrudes frontwards from the top of his head in a large, curly and fluffy tuft. His eyes were semi-open, while they seem to have light-colored pupils. His physique is peculiar in the fact that, despite having quite a large belly, his abdominal and pectorals are well-defined. He was wearing a loose, light green shirt decorated with many motifs of stylized dark-colored flowers with five petals, a darker pair of short pants and simple dark shoes. He was Wakaba Mine, a veteran Mage of the Fairy Tail Guild.
"Hey Natsu, good to see you b…" greeted Wakaba before he was cut short when the foot of the pink haired Dragon Slayer greeted his face. He flew away across the room a moment later, destroying a table in his path.
"Why did you do that?" shouted Lucy in disbelief. Her words mirroring exactly what was going through the Galactic Defenders' heads just a moment prior.
"You lied to us about that Salamander and I have to ride that stupid train twice due to you. I am gonna kick your sorry butt for that." stated Natsu as a matter-of-fact, speaking to the wizard his foot had greeted earlier, who currently lay in the debris of a wooden table and effectively ignoring the blonde's question. Kaz, Jack, Kim and Drake deadpanned upon hearing the reason. All this commotion was just because Natsu had to ride a train twice? It wasn't like that train ride was so expensive.
"Natsu has extreme motion sickness whenever he gets on a vehicle. I saw it firsthand." informed Chase while Kaz nods, Jack face-palms, Kim shook her head and Drake rubbed the bridge of his nose in annoyance.
"Don't blame me. I just passed along the rumor I had heard from others. And it's hurt you jerk!" retorted Wakaba, returning back on his feet, rubbing his nose and swollen cheeks.
"That's not true. You intentionally made us go there. I will kick your butt for that!" exclaimed Natsu angrily.
'Natsu reminds me of Spike.' thought Chase, remembering his commando app personality.
"You want to fight. Then let's go!" replied Wakaba before taking a fighting stance. The two then charged at one another and began trading blows. It didn't take long before the whole Guild hall become an open ring for open brawl. Whoever was getting hurt would join the squabble and eventually by then almost half of the Guild was already involved in the brawl. Lucy and the Galactic Defenders watched the sight with a sweat drop racing down their faces. Suddenly there attention was drawn behind them when a male voice commented.
"So Natsu back, huh?" said a male voice. The group swirled around to find a young man dropping the comment. The most prominent feature of this new guy was his spiky black-colored hair. He also has dark blue eyes, and his body is toned and muscular. His Fairy Tail stamp was below his collarbone on his right pectoral muscle and is dark blue in color. He was wearing nothing above his waist apart from a necklace, which resembles a sword with a stone in it, a metal bracelet and a chain which is attached to the belt loops on the right side of his black pants. He is Gray Fullbuster, an Ice-Make Mage as well as a member of the Fairy Tail Guild.
"It's time we settle things what we started, once and for all!" exclaimed Gray marching off toward the open brawl before Kim shrieked and covered her eyes.
"Gray, your clothes!" interrupted a female voice him nonchalantly. It was true, the said wizard had somehow, striped down to his black undershorts within a blink. The gang blinked in confusion before turning around in the direction of the feminine voice to find a tall, slim, young woman with an ample bust. She has long, mid-back length brown hair with varying shades of color, having been seen as bright brown, black, and, ultimately, plain brown. Two shoulder-length strands of hair frame her face, with the left one starting from a prominent, high fringe. Her hair is curlier and it appears really thick and wavy. She has large brown eyes and visibly long eyelashes. She possesses a very voluptuous figure, with large breasts and curvy hips. Her black Fairy Tail stamp is located on the lower left part of her abdomen, right above her hips. Her fingernails were long and were colored in red. She was wearing a light blue bikini top which features a camouflage pattern, a pair of Capri pants, with two bands hanging from each leg and a light belt covered in heart motifs loosely tied around the waist. She completes her general outfit by wearing a pair of high-heeled sandals. She also had a pair of metal bracelets adorning her biceps, bearing an incision composed of many 'A's, and three simple, round metal bracelets on her right wrist. She is Cana Alberona, a prominent member of the Fairy Tail Guild, and is a potential S-Class Mage. She is also a heavy drinker, but hardly ever gets drunk, no matter how much she drinks. The gang stared at her in silence until Kaz broke it.
"Wow! A hot babe wearing a bra is sitting right in front of me!" smiled Kaz.
SMACK! SMACK! SMACK! SMACK!
"OW!" flinched Kaz as he rubs the back of his neck, where the Galactic Defenders slapped him individually. Whenever Kaz tries to flirt with a girl openly or insult someone openly, the Galactic Defenders slap the back of his neck as punishment. They've been doing this since their first off-world mission.
"I don't have time for that." shouted Gray jumping into the fight.
"Did he really say that he don't have time to wear clothes?" deadpanned Lucy hearing the dumb reply.
"That's why I don't take on any of the men here. They don't even have any class; all alone they will show it." informed Cana before picking up a big barrel of beer almost as tall as her and started chugging on it. Lucy's jaw dropped down to her knees upon the crazy sight before the gang. On one side, most of the Guild members were fighting among themselves for whatever unknown reasons with one of them almost naked and on the other side; Cana emptied a barrel of booze in single breath and hardly even looks drunk.
"She's like a human sponge!" wondered Kaz aloud. Meanwhile, Gray went to the pink haired Dragon Slayer, challenging him.
"Let's do this, Natsu!" frowned Gray.
"First you put some clothes on and then come for me!" retorted Natsu, beating the sense out of the semi-conscious Wakaba.
"What is this so much noise about? Why were all of you acting like spoiled little babies?" asked a stern, harsh voice from behind the gang with his shadow, towering over them. They turned around to find a large, muscular man with tan colored skin, whose height causes him to tower over most of his fellow guild members. His long white hair is kept styled upwards in long, wavy spikes, his dark eyes possess no visible eyebrows and his rectangular, elongated face has a stitched scar running down its right side, crossing his right eye. His black Fairy Tail stamp is located on the left part of his neck. He was wearing a dark blue jacket with purplish blue inners, held closed on the front by a line of large buttons, with similar buttons on the sleeves' back and the zip located on the high collar left open. The back of his jacket is adorned by large, light kanjis, which read "The greatest" and the jacket itself seems to be worn over a light red shirt, sometimes seemingly replaced by an A-shirt covered in many vertical lines. His outfit is completed by loose pants matching his jacket, held up by a simple belt, and traditional Japanese geta sandals, and held in place by bands colored the same as his jacket's inners. He is Elfman Strauss, the only one muscular mage in Fairy Tail. Instantly the group got out of Elfman's way before they were also dragged into the crazy fight or crushed under by this giant man.
"If you were a man then talk with your fists!" exclaimed Elfman while fist pumping.
"Oh, he is actually encouraging them!" commented Kim, receiving nods from the group.
"Get outta our way!" shouted both Natsu and Gray in unison followed by their respective fist greeting Elfman's face before he was out for count.
"They knocked him out so easily!" exclaimed Jack amazed by the power the duo possessed. Either they were more powerful with their energy combined or Elfman was too weak to bother them.
"And he is out for the count!" added Kaz with a smile. He had never witness anything like this.
"It's like I'm witnessing a 3D comic movie. And those two are the sworn enemies." added Kaz while pointing toward the pink and raven haired wizards.
"Darn! So noisy here." said a smooth voice from around a corner. The group glanced in the direction. They find a handsome young man of average height, distinguished by his delicate facial features and his orange hair; his hair is kept in a mildly short, spiky cut, with spiky strands covering his forehead, and other, longer ones jutting upwards from the top of his head. His hazel eyes were covered by a pair of azure-tinted sunglasses with a thin frame. His left ear is adorned by three earrings: a stud and two rings. His green Fairy Tail stamp is located on his back. He was wearing a green coat with a wide collar, complete with prominent, spiky, brownish-white fur trimming lining the hood, over a light red shirt covered in many flower-like motifs, black pants and whitish sneakers, each adorned by a pair of light green stripes. He was Loke, another member of Fairy Tail. However, his appearance didn't amaze them as much as the two lovely ladies wrapped around his arms.
'Great. Another Darkstar.' thought the Galactic Defenders sarcastically. Suddenly, a mug collided with Loke's head creating a small bump around the impact.
"Are you alright?" asked one of the ladies sounding concerned.
"I am sorry but I am also going to fight only to ensure your safeties!" winked Loke before jumping in the open brawl.
"Wow, he is actually a ladies' man! Like that fake Salamander guy!" commented Lucy nervously. At this point the entirety of the guildhall had likely begun to fight, however it was only with fists and a few kicks being thrown here and there. No magic was being used and everyone seemed as if they were genuinely having fun, a concept that was very, very strange to the trio.
"Hello, are you all new here?" asked a very sweet feminine voice from behind the group. Drake turned around to be greeted with the sight of a breathtaking beautiful young woman. She was a slim young woman of below average height. She has long, white hair which curls slightly at the ends, with two bangs framing her face and reaching down to her chest; her hairstyle's most distinctive trait is a short, upward ponytail obtained by gathering and tying the hair covering her forehead. She has large blue eyes and a curvy, voluptuous body, with large breasts. Her white Fairy Tail Stamp is located on her left thigh. She was wearing a sleeveless, ankle-length maroon dress with a pleated skirt. The chest is adorned by a large, pink bow, and similarly colored trimmings frame the rather ample neckline, acting as straps, and circle around the waist. She was also wearing high-heeled shoes that match her dress, and accessorizes with a small chain necklace with a blue oval gem attached to it, and a bracelet made of white flowers circling her right wrist. She is Mirajane Strauss, an S-Class Mage of the Fairy Tail Guild and is often a model for the Sorcerer Magazine. Drake simply stared at the beautiful woman before him in awe. She was the most beautiful of all ladies he had seen in this and his Universe. He had to admit that every girl in this Universe is very beautiful with bigger assets in comparison to his Universe. He shook his head to clear away all the new thoughts arising while a mild blush appeared on his cheeks.
"Mirajane…It's really you." exclaimed Lucy girlishly as soon as her eyes fell on the barmaid. The barmaid giggled in a flattered manner a moment later, blushing ever so slightly at the obvious fan-girl greeting she received from the blonde and the sight of Drake.
"Don't you think, we should stop them before they completely wreak this place?" asked Drake politely, trying hard not to stare at her without being caught.
"Leave them alone. They have always been like this whenever they regrouped!" giggled Mirajane, causing the trip to deadpan. Suddenly a bottle collided with her head causing a bump appeared near the impact.
"Although it's hurt but it is more fun!" smiled Mirajane. Drake growled while he clenched his teeth and fists before he turned to the brawl. While Mirajane said they are usually like this, Drake couldn't stand such a beautiful girl getting hurt if she isn't involved.
"Uh-Oh!" grimaced Kaz when the group noticed Drake's state.
"This is bad!" frowned Chase. Drake inhaled deeply before he unleashed a wild lion roar, getting everyone's attention while they stopped fighting. Everyone gulped when they noticed his angry mood and bared fangs, mostly the look in his eyes that are normally found in Erza's or Master's, except his has a more beastly look.
"Listen, you people! This isn't a jungle! This isn't a war! And this isn't survival of the fittest, where you harm others in order to survive! So there is no reason to fight, at least not in a civilized area, where you could hurt people not involved, so next time you fight, make sure you do it outside, so no one could get hurt, or else you'll see how it feels to be crushed by a real beast! Understand?!" growled Drake before a large dark beast appeared and stomped his foot to the ground, his voice loud and booming.
"Listen to our guest and stop acting like children you fools!" commanded the giant, flinching everyone instantly.
Everyone stopped abruptly and looked at the large titan whose shadow was over towering them. The group also swirled around to find a beast, almost Humungousaur's size when he is at his best.
"It's huge!" muttered Kaz under his breath while he stared at the huge figure with wide eyes.
"I am sorry. I didn't know you were here Master." responded Mirajane politely, referring to the titan.
"Did you say Master?" screamed Lucy in disbelief. Natsu started laughing at everyone who was dead silent.
"They all are really babies. Looks like I am the only one…" grinned Natsu as he was cut short when the titan landed his foot onto him, decking the pink haired Dragon Slayer in the ground as the Dragon Slayer grunted in pain. Suddenly the titan was engulfed in golden light and he began to slowly shrink down as a rush of power appeared around him and when the light died down; it revealed an extremely short, elderly man. He has black eyes and is growing bald with only the outer rims of his head containing white hair. He also has a thick white mustache. He has a black stamp of Fairy Tail that covers his entire chest area. He was currently dressing in a casual manners which consist of a white shirt with black Fairy Tail stamp in the middle which covered by an orange hoodie. His attire was completed with matching orange shorts and an orange and blue stripes designed jester hat. He was Master Makarov Dreyar of Fairy Tail Guild as well as he is also one of the ten wizard saints. He was currently holding a bunch of papers in his hand. The group blinked in confusion at the old man before him. One time, he was an over-sized beast and second after, he was smallest of all people around here, probably smaller than Echo Echo, Ice Edge and Pop Fizz.
"HE'S A MIDGET!" shouted Kaz unbelievably while pointing at Makarov.
SMACK! SMACK! SMACK! SMACK!
"OW! NOT AGAIN!" flinched Kaz as he rubs the back of his neck, where the Galactic Defenders slapped him individually.
"He is tiny. Did he really a Master?" wondered Lucy aloud.
"He is Fairy Tail Guild's Master Makarov!" stated Mirajane cheerfully. Suddenly Master Makarov leaped high in the air, landing in a less than graceful manner atop the second floor's railing. He cleared his throat a moment later, silencing all whispers before he began his announcement.
"You've gone and done it again, rascals! Look at all this paperwork the council sent me! They're all complaints! All you fools do is making the council angry at me!" stated Master Makarov, lifting his right hand and showing a rather sizable stack of paperwork. Suddenly the stack of paper ignited, burning away within a second later before he threw it away in air. Instantly Natsu leap up in mid air before getting hold of them and began feeding.
"Did he just eat the fire?" asked Kim amazed while Kaz, Jack and Drake nodded speechless.
"Aye!" chirped Happy. Suddenly the announcement took a sharp U-turn from where it was going.
"Screw the council! Listen up! Magic is an unreasonable power, but it is born for reason! It is not some miraculous ability. It is the combination of the spirit that flows within us with the spirit that flows within nature itself, incarnated into physical form! It takes a strong mind and focus! In fact, magic is the pouring out of one's entire soul! One cannot progress in the way of magic by being mindful of the watchful eye from above! Be not afraid of those fools on the council! And follow the path you believe in! That's what it means to be a Fairy Tail wizard!" stated Master Makarov, ending by pointing his right hand high into the air with his index finger extended and his thumb pointing out. The whole guildhall cheered, mimicking the old man's action by performing the very same hand gesture. The Galactic Defenders were surely impressed by the lecture they heard; somehow it did lifted up the spirits of others.. After the cheering had died down some of the members of the guild went about their respective business, but Master Makarov himself went back over to the bar in order to greet the new member before the guild heard a door creak, causing the members to look at the newcomers with slightly paled faces. Standing in the doorway is Ben Tennyson and Evergreen, the former holding the broken door.
"Uh, the door's broken.. " paused Ben nervously while noticing everyone's looks.
"Whoa. Evergreen? She hardly ever comes to the guild." said Wakaba.
"And she never came with a guest, ever." added Elfman.
"Hey, Ben!" waved Kaz, drawing everyone's attention to them.
"I got your message, Chase, but you didn't have to send it to me since Evergreen took me here." informed Ben while approaching his teammates.
"So we have got some new recruits here?" asked Master Makarov while eyeing everyone.
"My name is Lucy Heartfilia, and I'd love nothing more than to join this guild!" said Lucy in a pleading manner, causing the elderly mage to chuckle.
"Don't worry about that my dear, you've got nothing to worry about. In fact, welcome to Fairy Tail!" replied Makarov, causing the celestial mage to beam with joy.
"And who might you 6 be?" asked Makarov cheerfully, closing his eyes and directing a genuine smile towards the Galactic Defenders.
"Ben Tennyson." introduced Ben.
"Kaz Lunason." introduced Kaz.
"Chase Davenport." introduced Chase.
"Jack Brewer." introduced Jack.
"Kim Crawford." introduced Kim.
"Drake Orion." introduced Drake.
"Master Makarov, they don't know where their home is, and they had nowhere to stay. I suggested to Ben that they should stay here temporarily." informed Evergreen. Makarov turned and thought about it for a moment.
"Very well. Mira, could you please set up a few storage rooms for these young folks?" asked Makarov.
"Of course, Master!" Mirajane smiled, then walked away. Makarov turned back to the Galactic Defenders.
"Now, I'll let you stay until you can all get home, but I'd like to know exactly where you're from. I don't want to be guilty of harboring spies from another country." said Makarov. The Galactic Defenders huddled in a circle.
"What should we do?" asked Kaz.
"I think we should tell them where we are from." answered Kim.
"What if they don't believe us?" asked Drake.
"We have no choice but to explain it because lying is an unwise decision." answered Jack.
"Plus, I might've told Lucy, Natsu and Happy that I'm bionic." added Chase nervously.
"Well, it's now or never. Here's how we'll explain.. " started Ben on how to explain where they're from. Makarov was waiting patiently for a few minutes before the group broke out of their circle, with Ben, Chase, and Jack stepping forward.
"Well, we can tell you where we're from, but you all might want to sit down, it's a very long story." said Ben. The wizards all found seats as Chase began their tale. First, he introduced the concept of other universes; some of the wizards grasped the concept, like Lucy, whose spirits actually came from another dimension, and Makarov, who was just smart. Other wizards, like Natsu, had to have it simplified, then Ben told them that they were actually from another universe, and that was the shocker for everyone. Jack explained that magic didn't exist in their universe, at least, not like here, and that everything came from science. Chase then went on to tell them how they came to this world, ending with his encounter with Natsu, Happy and Lucy while Ben added his encounter with Evergreen. For a minute, the wizards were stunned, before Makarov broke the silence.
"Ben, if you do not use magic, how did you turn into the creatures that you describe? These… aliens, you call them?" asked Makarov. Ben raised his left arm, sliding his jacket's sleeve back to reveal the Omnitrix. The wizards leaned in close to see the white and green, square shape wristwatch with green lines forming an hourglass shape over the black face-plate.
"It's called the Omnitrix and it lets me turn into every sentient species in our universe." explained Ben.
"How many can you turn into?" asked a rather young, petite teenage girl of a slender build who stands at a rather below-average height. Her shoulder-length blue hair, which has eyebrow-length bangs, is tied up with a colorful bandanna around her head. Her hair appears to be wavy, wild, with locks hanging down the sides of her face. She is Levy McGarden, a mage of Fairy Tail and leader of Shadow Gear team.
"Right now, I can turn into about eighty." answered Ben, much to the wizards' shock. Levy, however, noticed something.
"You can turn into eighty aliens right now? Does that mean that you can turn into more?" asked Levy.
"Fully unlocked, the Omnitrix has the DNA of over a million aliens." nodded Ben. If the jaws of the wizards dropped any further, they would have fallen off their skulls. Evergreen recovered fastest.
"Wait a minute! When you saved me from those Vulcan, you only had a change in clothes and used different powers before you changed back. Does that mean some aliens look like humans?" asked Evergreen.
"It's true. Heck, I have like a dozen alien friends that look human." answered Kaz, making the members drop their jaws once again. Makarov nodded before he looked at Kaz.
"So Kaz, what can you turn into and how?" asked Makarov curiously.
"With this." smirked Kaz before he raised his left arm, sliding his jacket sleeve to reveal a device similar to the Omnitrix, except it's rectangle-shaped with a brown swirl inside it and there's a small slot on the sides. The wizards leaned in close to take it's appearance.
"It's called the Dueltrix, created by the same person who made the Omnitrix, along with an alternate universe celebrity. It allows me to transform into Duel Monsters, creatures from an alternate universe where a card game is popular and the creatures are mostly used in it, lots with few conditions." explained Kaz, making the members' jaws drop.
"And before you ask, like Ben, I also have about eighty forms, and fully unlocked, I can turn into thousands of Duel Monsters, and I could use the Spell and Trap Cards used in the game." added Kaz before Chase stepped forward and pulled his left sleeve, revealing a device similar to the others, except the outline's blue and the face-plate is shaped like the Bakugan symbol.
"My turn. This device is called the Bakutrix. Like the Dueltrix, it allows me to transform into creatures from another universe called Bakugan. It has an additional function that allows me to change the attribute of the Bakugan I transform into. The attributes are Pyrus for fire, Aquos for water, Ventus for wind, Subterra for earth, Haos for light, and Darkus for darkness. I have about sixty forms, but including the attribute change, I might have over 300 forms, six different attribute versions of one Bakugan." explained Chase, making the guild members drop their jaws.
"Wait a minute! You said something about being bionic, and when we were on the yacht, you summoned a blue staff in your human form. How did you do that?" asked Lucy as soon as she recovered, making the guild members raise an eyebrow.
"I was born with a mechanical chip embedded in my neck that gives me bionics. I'll give you a demonstration with my magnetism app." answered Chase as he extended his left palm outward. Lucy felt something tugging on her skirt and she looked down to see her Celestial keys trying to drag her to Chase. The keys broke free of the chain and flew to Chase's hand. The guild awed at this while Chase twirled the keys in his fingers.
"It's like some sort of Steel Magic (or Iron, Metal, I don't know if that magic actually exists beside Gajeel's Iron Dragon Slayer Magic.)" commented Wakaba. Chase chuckled before he tossed the keys to Lucy, who quickly caught it and reattached it to her key-chain. Jack and Kim walked forward as they pulled their jacket sleeves to reveal two gauntlet-like devices with a screen by a circular dial with the Skylander symbol in it. Jack's is red and Kim's is yellow.
"Kim and I each possess a device called the Skylatrix. It allows us to turn into magical creatures from another dimension called Skylanders. Kim has about 20 forms while I have about 50." explained Jack as the guild members nods before Drake stepped forward, making everyone raise an eyebrow since Drake isn't wearing anything on his wrists besides his gloves, making Drake roll his eyes.
"This (tilts his head backwards to reveal an orange collar-like device with the symbol looking like a set of jaws around his neck.) is called the Nemetrix. It allows me to turn into alien predators from our universe. Right now, I can turn into about 60." explained Drake as some members whistle impressed.
"How long have you had these devices?" asked Makarov.
"Well, Drake had the Nemetrix for over a year, Kaz, Chase, Jack and Kim had theirs for 2 years. I've had this one for two years now, but I started using the prototype Omnitrix, when I was ten years old." answered Ben.
"What!?" yelled several wizards at once.
"Yeah, I've been fighting bad guys and monsters since I was ten." explained Ben.
"Wow, now that's manly!" said Elfman, then clapped Ben on the shoulder, sending him sprawling.
"Thanks (grunts as he got up) but I'd like to be a man without broken bones, if you don't mind." said Ben.
"And hear this. Since I was 14, I've been working in a superhero hospital called Mighty Med." informed Kaz with a smirk.
"THOSE ACTUALLY EXISTS?!" yelled several wizards at once. Kaz nodded before Makarov noticed something.
"You each said you obtained your devices 2 years ago, except Drake. Why?" asked Makarov.
"The creator and co-creators of the devices chosen us to become a superhero team to protect the multiverse. I came up with the name Galactic Defenders." smirked Kaz.
"But what about Drake? How did he join later?" asked Wakaba. Drake looked down with his messy hair foreshadowing his eyes.
"7 years ago, his parents were killed by a couple of my old enemies and he's been abducted by them. The Nemetrix originally belonged to one of my enemies. Drake was taken as a test subject to improve the Nemetrix, to make it work on sentient beings instead of animals. A year ago, the Nemetrix worked like how they wanted it to, and they gave him the Nemetrix, and my old enemy Khyber kind of raised him in a jungle after he gave him amnesia. Khyber ordered him to kill us so he can become the Ultimate Hunter. In our few encounters, Drake has nearly killed me when he used a specific predator for each of my aliens. My friends helped me defeat him and Drake recovered from his amnesia, remembering the death of his parents. Drake escaped after recovery and went to kill Khyber. He nearly did if we hadn't talked him out of it. The special police force we work with offered him a home since he has nowhere to stay. After a meeting with the creator of our devices, we all agreed to give him a spot on the team, since his animal instincts could be useful and he's a powerful ally. Drake accepted and we made him a lion vest version of the jackets we wear. We hit a few bumps on the road, but we eventually worked as a team." explained Ben, making everyone give Drake sympathetic looks. They can't believe that someone would do something so low, especially making the kid of the victims work for them. Some guild members looked at Elfman, knowing their pasts are similar.
"I'm sorry. I had no idea." apologized Wakaba.
"It's alright. Let's just drop the subject." shrugged Drake.
"Anyway, you said you could turn into these variable creatures, but what can they do?" asked Gray.
"'We've got super-strength, super-speed, invulnerability, flight, regeneration, size-changing, sound manipulation and elemental powers… the list goes on and on." smirked Kaz.
"No way…" whispered Gray, if he was even half-true, that meant that the Galactic Defenders were probably six of the most powerful people in the building.
"Very interesting. You may stay as long as you like." said Makarov.
"Thank you." thanked the Galactic Defenders.
(One hour later)
It was only an hour after Ben and the others had arrived in Fairy Tail that everyone was still wondering if they were telling the truth about themselves. During that duration Ben and the others have learned more about Earthland. They learned that mages specialized in different magic, they learned more of the council, and guilds. They also learned the wizards that are in guilds also do jobs and earned money for a living. Kaz was somewhat jealous of this because he always saved the day yet was never really paid for it. The others didn't care since they didn't do it for the money. Everyone was currently sitting at the counter while the rest of the guild talking about what to do next, while the members of Fairy Tail were doing their own business. Natsu and Happy were at the request board to find a job to do. While the new recruit Lucy was getting the guild stamp on her right hand.
"Has my dad come back yet?" asked a child's voice. Natsu and the group turned to the sound of the voice it was a slim, small boy around the age of six with dark hair. He was wearing a dark green t-shirt with Nakajima on it, light brown cargo shorts, and sandals. He was Romeo Conbolt, son of Macao Conbolt. Romeo asked the question to Makarov who was currently drinking some beer from his mug.
"You're starting to get on my nerves Romeo, you're the son of a wizard, have faith in your father and wait patiently." suggested Makarov.
"But sir, he said he would be back in three days, and he has been gone for over a week now!" informed Romeo.
"If my memory is correct he took the job for Mount Hakobe." informed Makarov.
"Yes, that's right! It's not that far, so can you please send somebody to look for him!" begged Romeo.
"Listen kid, your father's a wizard! And like every other wizard he can take care of himself! Now go home, have some milk and cookies and wait!" shouted Makarov. Romeo's response was he clenched his fist and punched Makarov in the face.
"JERK!" yelled Romeo as he then ran out with tears streaming down his face.
"I hate you all!" cried the boy while he ran.
"That's gotta be tough." said Lucy sadly.
"I'm felling deja-vu just by looking at the scene." said Chase.
"I know that master doesn't seem to care but he is actually really worried." said Mirajane.
"Well, he is doing a good job of hiding it." said Chase sarcastically. The conversation was interrupted by the sound of a crashing sound from the request board. Chase and Lucy turned to the request board to see the request Natsu had was wedged into the board.
"What the heck are you doing! You almost broke the board Natsu!" exclaimed Wakaba. Makarov then let out a sigh as he applied a bandage to the mark where Romeo punched him as he saw Natsu and Happy walk out of the guild.
"This doesn't look good master, you know how he is, I bet he's going to Mount Hakobe to rescue Macao." said Wakaba.
"When does that kid ever grow up?" asked one of the men next to Levy. One was a slim, young man of average height with orange hair, kept jutting backwards at the sides of his head. He has a sharp face, a prominent, flat and defined nose pointing downwards, and distinctive teeth, with a protruding, sharp, triangular-shaped upper molar complemented by a chipped portion on the lower row. He was wearing an open, light-brown coat with yellowish fur trimmings on its edges and sleeves, which reached down below his elbows. Below it was a high-collared purple shirt, with its collar mostly left open, with a rectangular buckle, and tucked inside the baggy dark pants covering his legs, in turn tucked inside dark boots. Other one was a tall, slim young man with black hair kept in an unusual, distinctive hairstyle, with a tuft of hair on top of his head jutting upwards and then curving frontwards, being reminiscent of a plant's stem. His hair extends in a rounded form on his forehead, and was cut on both sides of his head in a spiraling motif. He has dark eyes and thin dark eyebrows pointing downwards at their outer edges; his rectangular-shaped face sported sharp features, with prominent cheekbones. He was wearing a simple white shirt, green checkered pants, and dark shoes with lighter soles. He also sported a pair of distinctive belts crossing his chest, each passing over one of his shoulders. These belts were reminiscent of bandoliers, sporting rectangular cases on them. The former one was Jet, whose real name is Sarusuke while latter one was Droy. Both were the other two members of Shadow Gear team of Fairy Tail.
"Who knows, going up there to save Macao isn't going to do much except hurt his pride." added Jet.
"Remember Jet, we cannot choose another's path, just leave him be." said Makarov.
"Why did Natsu get so upset?" asked Lucy.
"Maybe it's because they may have a lot in common." guessed Kaz.
"That's right. I think Natsu sees himself in Romeo." said Mirajane as she was cleaning a glass.
"Despite all of us being in Fairy Tail that doesn't mean we have our own personal issues, we have all had experienced some suffering and loss. Many years ago Natsu's father left and never came back, well technically it wasn't his real father but the one who had raised him, he was actually a dragon!" explained Mirajane. That made the Galactic Defenders' (except Chase) jaws drop at the revelation of someone being taken care of by a dragon.
"When he was a little boy, a dragon found Natsu wandering around a forest, the dragon then took him in and taught him all about magic, language, and culture, but one day the dragon disappeared and never returned." said Mirajane sadly.
"Natsu told me about him! The Fire Dragon that taught him Fire Dragon Slayer magic!" deduced Lucy.
"That's right, Natsu wants to live to see the day where he will see Igneel once again, it's kinda cute isn't it?" asked Mirajane, and she got nods from the duo.
"I'm not going to let someone else suffer the same fate I nearly did." said Chase as he ran out of the guild to follow Natsu.
"Chase! Wait for me!" cried Lucy as she ran after Chase.
(Carriage Wagon)
Most present within the wooden form of transportation sat calmly and quietly as the horse continued to pull the cart closer and closer to their destination. However, one person in particular seemed to be having a very difficult time.
"I don't wanna ride this stupid thing again." groaned Natsu as he tried his best just to keep the food in his stomach down. Chase and Lucy sweat dropped seeing the pink-haired mage worsening condition. His groaning filled the whole cart. It was so embarrassing for a Dragon Slayer to motion sickened so easily.
"You really can't handle transportation a bit, can you?" observed Lucy in a sympathetic manner.
"What that supposed to mean?" grunted Natsu before his stomach pain forced his to shut his mouth instantly.
"Oh nothing, just that you are so lame!" responded Lucy disgustedly. The cart abruptly stopped several moments later.
"I'm sorry, but this is as far as I can take you." stated the driver.
"Finally, we are here and now I am free from this stupid ride." exclaimed Natsu, getting up his feet instantly in a revitalized manner.
"You really hate transportation, do you?" asked Chase annoyed. The team stepped out of the cart and took a glance at their surroundings.
"It's a frozen wasteland!" screamed Lucy.
(Mount Hakobe)
Mt. Hakobe is a large mountain located near Magnolia Town. Its exact location is unknown however it is near Magnolia. It is a high mountain with a characteristic alpine climate. Snow cover lasts all year round in this mountain, no matter what season is. There are also frequent snow blizzards. Its characteristic includes the occurrence of numerous caves where the shelters are different representatives of the local fauna and flora. The group began to make their way up towards the summit. However, the weather was exceedingly brutal. Snow fell nonstop, chilling winds that cut to the bone howled without end, and the clouds made it seem as if the mountains peak was an eternity away.
"Why it's so cold here? It's freezing! Okay, I know it's a mountain and all, but it's summer! There's something not right about this blizzard!" complained Lucy, her hands shaking as they held tightly onto her shoulders.
"That's what you get for wearing such thin clothes!" stated Natsu.
"Aye!" chirped Happy. Before Lucy could say anything else, she felt something covering her back and arms. Lucy looked up to see Chase with only his black t-shirt, making her realize that he covered her with his jacket.
"You can use my jacket to protect yourself from the cold." smiled Chase, along with Lucy.
"They love each other!" teased Happy, making Chase and Lucy blush.
"T-Thanks Chase, b-but what about you? Aren't you going to get cold too?" asked Lucy. Chase smirked before he activated the Bakutrix. When he found the form he wanted, he slammed the dial, bathing himself in blue light.
(Chase's transformation scene)
Two silver bats with red wings flew toward Chase from behind. Chase took off his shirt before he jumped upward as the bats' bodies meld with his back, leaving the wings visible. Chase's body became red/black and scaly as he grew four small white spikes on each knuckle. A gigantic red/silver sword appeared above Chase as it fell toward him. Instead of piercing him, the sword became armor and covered Chase mostly from neck to toe. A red metal hood came over Chase's face before a blue visor covered his eyes and his mouth turn into red metal jaws. Three silver blade-like horns grew on Chase's head. The wings crossed before Chase pumped his arms in a power up fashion.
"Spatterix!" cried the Pyrus Bakugan.
(Mount Hakobe)
"That's more like it." sighed Spatterix as he faintly glows red, warming himself up.
"Chase, that form looks a little scary, don't you think?" asked Lucy nervously.
"Well, I think it looks cool!" commented Natsu.
"Aye!" chirped Happy.
"Thanks Natsu. By the way, you never told us what the job was that Macao taken." reminded Spatterix.
"Well, the job was for him to subdue a vicious monster, a Vulcan!" informed Natsu while Lucy paled.
"You mean those giant monkey things Ben told us about?" asked Spatterix. Natsu nodded before their conversation was interrupted by a mild roar behind them. They turned around to see a white Vulcan.
"Like women, women, women!" mumbled the Vulcan excitedly, doing a gorilla dance as his eyes fell on Lucy as she instantly squeaks in fright.
"So it can talk!" observed Natsu, adopting an expression as if was thinking something before he faced the Vulcan.
"Tell me where my friend is ya big ape? Spill it." demanded Natsu angrily. Ignoring everyone, the Vulcan simply moved toward the blonde. However, before he could get anywhere near her, his face was greeted by a super-heated fist, sending him stumbling back.
"Thanks, Chase." thanked Lucy.
"No problem! Hey Natsu (Natsu looks at him curious) Want to try a combined breath attack?" asked Spatterix. Natsu nodded with a grin before he inhaled an inhuman amount of air, causing his cheeks to expand.
"FIRE DRAGON ROAR!" chanted Natsu as he exhaled a large torrent of fire while Spatterix exhaled crimson fire, causing the two attacks to merge and become a spiraling ball of orange and crimson flame. The Vulcan tried to punch it, but ended up with it's fur singed off, revealing it's entire black body. The Vulcan looked down before he girlishly screamed and tried to cover his singed body, making the heroes sweat drop.
"Did he just scream like a girl?" asked Happy.
"Does it matter? FIRE DRAGON IRON FIST!" chanted Natsu as he uppercuts the Vulcan with a fiery fist, sending it crashing against a mountain wall, causing it to get covered in snow.
"Is it down?" asked Lucy as Spatterix approaches the snow pile before faintly glowing red, melting the snow off, only for everyone's eyes to widen. (Except Spatterix, since he has a visor.) Instead of the defeated Vulcan under the snow, there was a slim, mildly muscular man of average height with short, straight, slicked back dark blue hair. He has linear dark eyebrows, dark eyes, and a prominent nose with a flat, rectangular front. The lower part of his face was covered in quite a large amount of stubble, which includes a thin mustache. He was wearing a brown, pinstriped pants held up by a lighter-colored belt bearing a snake-like pattern, with a simple, square-shaped buckle and a very distinctive pair of shoes, adorned with a leopard pattern. Around his neck he was wearing a large, serpentine necklace, which is held up by a chain. Apart from these, he was naked above his waist with lots of cuts and bruises all over him. He is Macao Conbolt, another mage of Fairy Tail.
"Macao?" muttered Natsu surprised.
"Are you telling me that this monkey was actually your lost friend?" asked Lucy in utter disbelief.
"Yeah!" nodded Natsu while kneeling beside the unconscious body, drastically confusing the others in the group.
"He must have been taken over by that Vulcan! They must have used possession magic to get control over his body. They were evil body snatchers." explained Happy.
"And its look like he had put a good fight before that Vulcan got him!" stated Spatterix noticing the bruises, he had received.
'Thank Azmuth Ben didn't get taken over by the Vulcans he encountered.' thought Spatterix in relief, glad to know that Ben didn't turn into an enemy. Macao's eyes slowly began to open, and despite his injuries, he smiled.
"Natsu? Is that you?" asked Macao.
"You're okay!" exclaimed Natsu happily, jostling the man's shoulder in order to prevent him from dozing off. This also brought sigh of relief from others as well.
"Before defeated, I had defeated nineteen of those and that last one sneaked behind and got me. I don't think I could go home and face Romeo now." admitted Macao sadly.
"Come on, don't be like that. You had beaten nineteen monsters!" stated Natsu with a large toothy grin.
"That was really a great achievement. We had to work together to defeat that last one!" commented Spatterix, smiling while gaining scared looks from everyone except Natsu. With an adrenaline rush, Macao stood up perfectly between the wizards and Bakutrix bearer while covering his fists in purple fire as he glared at Spatterix.
"You need to stay back, you three. There's a... red and silver bat-winged monster here." warned Macao, trying to summarize Spatterix's appearance until Natsu stood between the near combatants.
"Whoa! Macao, calm down! He's a friend of ours, so there's no need to fight!" informed Natsu while Spatterix snuck to Lucy.
"Am I really that scary-looking?" asked Spatterix.
"If you think something with demon-wings and metal teeth is scary, yeah, pretty much." answered Lucy sheepishly. Spatterix nodded before he looked at Happy.
"Happy, you mind taking Natsu and Macao for me?" asked Spatterix. Before Happy could answer, Spatterix already picked up Lucy bridal-style and flew away, making Lucy blush.
(Magnolia)
The sun was starting to set on the horizon, but a little boy seemed to be in deep thought while sitting on a step. Romeo was in deep thought about when his father will come back. Romeo was starting to cry. He started to blame himself for causing his fathers disappearance.
"Hey Romeo!" yelled someone in the distance.
Romeo looked up to see Natsu and the others (with Chase in his human form) with Macao being helped by the Fire Dragon Slayer. Romeo couldn't believe his eyes, his father was back, he was alive!
"DAD!" yelled Romeo as he ran up and tackled his father to the ground.
"You came back, I'm so sorry dad!" apologized Romeo as tears of joy were streaming down his face.
"No, I'm sorry for making you worry." apologized Macao as he embraced his son, ignoring the pain from the bump he just received from being tackling.
"I can handle it, 'cause I am a wizards son!" exclaimed Romeo, unbeknownst to them that the others were watching the happy reunion of father and son.
"Next time when those bullies bother you again, here's what I want you to say, 'Can your old man defeat nineteen monsters? 'cause mine can.'" said Macao while Romeo grinned widely. Romeo then got up and yelled to Natsu and the others as they were walking to the guild.
"Natsu! Happy! Thanks for your help!" exclaimed Romeo.
"No problem kiddo!" waved Natsu.
"Aye!" said Happy.
"Chase! Everyone! Thanks for bringing my dad back to me!" said Romeo.
Everyone else then turned around and gave the boy a wave of their own as well, after that the group returned to the guild.
(First Floor, Fairy Tail Guild)
It was late at night and everyone in the guild went home, well except for the guests.
"Thank goodness the storage room was big enough to fit in all of us." mused Ben.
The only ones who were in the main room of the Guild Hall were Ben, Kaz and Chase reminiscing about the events in this universe while everyone else was sleeping in the storage room. Despite it being a little cramped, everyone got some place to sleep. The only reason the trio did not go to sleep was because of all the crazy things that happened, now they just couldn't sleep with all of the excitement.
"Having trouble sleeping?" asked a voice behind them. The trio whirled around and saw Master Markarov behind them.
"It has been quite a day for you three hasn't it?" asked Makarov. The three heroes then gave affirmative nods, and the old man smiled and took a seat on the bar. A few minutes have passed in silence before the master spoke once again.
"Tell me what do you three think of magic?" asked Makarov.
"Well despite seeing only three types of magic it's still impressive." answered Chase.
"Says the guy who didn't believe in magic until 2 years ago." teased Kaz as Chase stands up defensively.
"Hey! In my defense, Mr. Davenport didn't know any magic tricks back when I was little!" said Chase as Makarov raised an eyebrow while looking at Ben.
"Chase never calls his dad, 'dad', or 'father', just Mr. Davenport." answered Ben to the unspoken question as Makarov nods.
"What do you think of magic in general though, is it like something you all have seen back in your universe?" asked. Makarov.
"Well what I have seen I can probably turn into." shrugged Chase.
"A few magic users I know normally chant spells in foreign languages." informed Ben.
"I might imitate wizards with my Spellcaster-Type monsters." said Kaz.
"Well why don't you call yourselves wizards then?" asked Makarov.
The trio then understood, when Chase got back Natsu and Lucy told the others that he was a powerful wizard, Chase being said as a powerful Take-Over wizard, and since they all have similar powers, everyone agreed, no matter how many times they said they weren't really wizards.
"Well, we don't really use magic directly." responded Ben plainly.
"What we call technology, we call magic, and judging by what Natsu and Evergreen said of what you two did you would be excellent wizards." said Makarov, referring to Ben and Chase.
"Are you trying to recruit us?" asked Kaz jokingly.
"I'm offering you a chance. I have sent messages to some colleagues of mine to look into a spell that can send you home. If, there isn't any, I will offer you all a place here for as long as you wish to stay, and I mean all of you." informed Makarov, gesturing to their teammates sleeping in the storage room as well. The trio was touched to say in the least, at how quickly the master of Fairy Tail was willing to trust them and their friends enough to be part of his "family".
"Thanks." began Kaz as he looked at Ben and Chase and their faces showed a fake sympathetic smile which seemed to say it all
'They're totally in love with those ladies.' mentally sighed Kaz.
"We appreciate the offer, but, no offense, we would like to go home." finished Kaz, not noticing the shocked looks on Ben and Chase's faces. Makarov nodded in understanding.
"I understand; still, my offer stands." informed Makarov. With all of that, the old man walked out of the guildhall and into the cool summer night, leaving the trio with their thoughts.
Omarnosian10: Done. And don't worry, the other Galactic Defenders will get the spotlight in the next chapter. And I might update this in a month's notice because I am going to put the whole Lullaby arc in one chapter. DEFENDERS OUT!
