Lucy's P.O.V
I was getting ready to go from work since I was already done with my shift, Apparently I'm a bar waitress.
As I went out of the room, I saw my boss watching basketball on the TV, like he does everyday.
He yelled, "Who the hell plays basketball that way!? It's not like they're playing with the neighborhood kids. Drives me crazy!"
I glared, then I walked to him to say goodbye. He was a mess, eating a box of fried chicken, laying on a massage chair.
"You're the one that's driving me crazy. Can you please clean up after you eat? I can't stand the smell at all." I said, crossing my arms, staring at the huge mess in front of me, food was everywhere and the place smelled like a huge dump.
"What do you wanna eat? Since it's your birthday, how about birthday punches?" He laughed. I replied, "I'm going out."
"Where are you going? It's raining outside, so just stay in the bar for awhile. Okay! SHOOT, SHOOT, SHOOT!" He continued to shout, watching his basketball game, unfortunately he spilled all his fried chicken on the floor, then I finally headed outside.
As I went out the door of the bar, I called a taxi.
"My goodness, Look at all this rain. Where are you going, miss?" The taxi driver asked, smiling gently.
"Mm.. I promised to see my friends." I explained. "Ah, I see. Are you in High School?" He asked.
I answered with a smile, "No, I'm in College. I'm twenty."
"Twenty years, Those are the best years of your life. How wonderful if I could relive those years." He said, chuckling.
He continued, "If I could only go back to my past. I'd even sell my soul." He explained, then moments later the taxi stopped.
"For some people, it's a time of their lives they can't return to." The taxi driver looked at me as I opened the door to get off the ride with an umbrella after I payed him.
"Hey, Juvia!" I called out to my friend, running to her as she waved at me then we both walked together to see Natsu, Laxus, Jellal, Gray, Gajeel & Romeo.
No one's P.O.V
Section Chief Makarov smiled proudly at the 6 boys, "Alright brats! Let's think of tomorrow's first appearance as our final stage."
He continued, "And put all of your elbow grease during practice into it. IS THAT CLEAR BRATS?" They replied in unison, "Yes!"
"Okay, let's wrap things up for today. Head home early and sleep-" Makarov explained but suddenly got interrupted by Natsu.
"Gramps, do you think we can practice a little longer? I'm all fired up!" Natsu added, his fists high in the air.
"Okay, fine. Don't be nervous and show the best of who you boys are. I'll see you rascals tomorrow." Makarov smiled then left the room after the boys had thanked him.
"Give me a call after you're done practicing." Mirajane smiled and made a call sign with her hand.
"Yep!" They all said in unison once again as she left the room.
"They're probably near, right?" Natsu asked, a huge smirk on his face. Jellal nodded, "Let's go and get ready."
Gray was setting the mini candles on the floor, "Let's hurry! It's almost time for them to arrive here."
Romeo chuckled, "You seem excited."
Jellal handed Gray a mini candle for him to place on the floor, "Is it because of Lucy or Juvia?"
Gray placed the candle on the floor with a grin, "Both."
"The idea of practicing in front of them does feel kinda embarrassing." Laxus watches the others decorate the room.
"Oh! They'll be our official first audience before our first appearance, then." Romeo added.
Natsu hits Romeo slightly with a balloon, "What are we on, a TV show? Why would you call them "audience"!"
Romeo sticks a tongue out at him then gets hit again with the balloon. Jellal asked, "Laxus, could you turn off the lights?"
"Okay." Laxus turned off the lights and all the mini candles light up as a FairyTail logo on the floor.
"Whoaaaaa~" All of them happily stare at the beauty of the lighted candles.
After testing out the candles, they turned the lights back on and just relaxed on the floor.
A huge wave of thunder claps, Romeo gets up from his sleep and his head bumps Natsu's shoulder, "Oh my God!"
Natsu hits him with a balloon, "You scared me." Laxus stared at the ceiling, "The weather's pretty bad today."
"Why are they taking so long? Did something happen? I'm already starting to worry, honestly." Gray wondered.
Natsu suddenly stood up, "I got a text! They said they're almost here. Get ready, I'll check outside." He runs outside the door.
While everyone makes sure the room is all set up, Natsu suddenly came back. "Shit, What do we do? Someone's coming here!"
Laxus said, "Okay we get it, now stop making a fuss and help us." Natsu then added, "No, I saw Gramps!"
"Ah, Jellal-nii what do we do!?" Romeo asked. "Let's clean up." Gray suggested and they all started cleaning the room.
Natsu started blowing all the mini candles, "Our first appearance is tomorrow. Don't you think he'll let us off for today?"
Jellal asked, "Do you think he will, with his personality?"
"Why don't we tell Gramps that we're throwing a party for that?" Natsu suggested.
Laxus placed all the paper cups in the plastic bag, "Forget it, Natsu. I don't really mind getting in a little bit of trouble."
"Let's just shut the lights and act like we're gone." Gajeel suggested.
Romeo nodded, "Yeah, they'll think we went back home." Gray then smirked, "Okay then let's first turn off the lights."
Gray then turned off the lights and all the boys lay down in different parts of the room.
Turns out the people heading to the room after all were Lucy & Juvia.
"What's going on? What are you guys doing?" Lucy asked, wondering why the room's all dark. Natsu said, "Oh, Lucy, Juvia!"
"I thought you said the Section Chief came? He must've thought wrong cause it was dark." Laxus said.
Natsu crossed his arms, "Everything's ruined..." The boys yelled in unison, "AH, NATSU!"
"No, I swear I saw Gramps coming!" Natsu added. "What were you guys doing, anyway?" Lucy asked.
"We wanted to surprise you since it's your birthday today." Gray answered, frowning.
"Hey! You should've at least given Juvia a heads up! You guys really can't do anything right without Juvia." Juvia added.
"Should we at least light the birthday cake, now?" Romeo asked. Lucy giggled, "It's okay."
"We should at least light it right now." Jellal placed the cake on the table, preparing to light it but suddenly all the lights went out.
"What was that? Was that a blackout?" Natsu asked, looking around.
Huge Flashes of lighting started flashing around the place, everyone wonders what's going on.
Section Chief Makarov arrives, "What are you rascals doing!?" Lightning waves flash once again and then one huge wave flashes.
No one's P.O.V
After the huge lighting flash, Lucy wakes up discovering that she's wearing her High School uniform and in her classroom.
Why did I wake up on my High School desk? Why am I wearing my High School uniform?
"Lucy! What are you doing? Let's go." Juvia waved her hand in front of Lucy's face, "You're daydreaming again?"
Lucy snapped out of her thoughts, "Ah, probably. Yeah, let's go."
As they were both walking in the hall, Juvia saw Carla their Homeroom teacher and ran to her with Lucy following behind.
"Carla-sensei! Juvia heard you're going on a blind date today~" Juvia teased, running to the white cat who was walking in the hall.
"You look good today." Lucy added. "But who did you hear that from? Did you hear it from Happy-sensei!?" Carla asked.
"How did you know? He's probably really feeling down about your blind date." Juvia said, surprised.
"Feeling down? He has no reason to feel that way!" Carla scoffs. "Why don't you just give him a chance?" Juvia suggested.
"What are you saying? Talking that way will get you in the guidance office!" Carla frowned, her arms crossed.
"Why? To Juvia, you both are made for each other~!" Juvia giggled.
"What nonsense! How can you pair me up with someone like HIM?" Carla asked, weirded out then she walks away.
"Carla-sensei are you done with class?" Happy went near Carla but she tried to avoid him, like always.
Lucy giggled, "Even if she drives him away, they'll eventually end up married."
Juvia asked, "What are you saying? You just heard what she said before. That'll never happen, even if she has to be single forever."
"That's what I meant. I never understood it either, She used to hate him." Lucy followed her friend, who's walking away.
Jellal, Natsu, and Laxus, wake up as well in their High school uniforms in the gym.
"Guys, get up! Guys? Guys!" Jellal shakes their bodies to wake them up.
"What is this? Where the hell are we!? Where's Popsicle, Gajeel, and Romeo?" Natsu asked, waking up.
Laxus suddenly woke up as well, "What's going on!?"
Natsu started pinching his ear, "Are we in a dream, right now? Or did I get an electric shock in the blackout?"
"Why are we in our Fairy academy uniforms?" Laxus held his tie up.
Jellal asked, "Why in the world did we wake up here? Why are we in our school uniforms?"
Natsu answered, pointing to each of them. "It's simple! This is either MY dream, or yours, or yours."
Carla enters the gym, "What are you guys doing here? Class ended 20 minutes ago. Why are you guys still asleep in here?"
The three didn't respond as they just stared at the white cat.
"Yes, you guys are tired from practicing for the event. But if I catch you sleeping like this, wouldn't you think your teachers might find it weird? Get out so the other students can clean. Unless you three would want to join." She said, her arms crossed.
"Huh? Okay! We're leavingggggg!" Natsu runs out the door. Laxus said, "Bye!" He and Jellal gave a small bow then did the same.
"What the hell just happened to us?" Natsu asked, walking around.
Jellal added, "Our high school, Carla-sensei, and event preparations.."
"I don't know, but we're definitely High School students." Laxus added.
"That's what I meant. Why is that only the THREE of us are in here cosplaying in our uniforms?" Natsu asked.
An idea popped into Jellal's mind and he asked, "Did you guys see the poster in the gym? It said X791."
"What!? Then are you saying we traveled back to the past?" Laxus asked, he looked a bit confused.
"If this isn't a dream.." Jellal said, his fingers placed on his chin.
"How does that make any sense!?" Natsu asked. Laxus added, "Where do you think are the others?"
"Maybe they're somewhere around the school." Jellal answered, his arms crossed.
Three of them heard music playing so they followed it and they saw Gajeel and a couple of dancers dancing.
"Wait a sec, I think I've seen this before." Natsu stared at the scene. "Yeah, me too." Laxus nodded.
"This is giving me the chills and Ice Princess ain't the reason this time." Natsu added.
"We've definitely.. gone back to two years ago." Jellal said, The two then gaped at him.
