Thanks so much for the great reviews guys I love you :)

Unfortunitly I don't own Fairy Tail or any any of its wonderful characters :(

Enjoy

Gajeel POV:

The aching feelings was back. The feeling in my chest that was always there but I only became aware of after Metalica left me.

Left me ... Those words hurt more than any injury I had gotten in my time as a Mage ... abandoned by the one being who had ever shown me any care. Alone.

Well Fuck that bitch, I don't need anyone, I don't need family, I can survive on my own. Survive. Yeah I thought to myself, that's what I'm doing I'm not living I'm surviving. I eat, I sleep, and I beat the living shit out of anyone who is dumb enough to cross me (great stress reliever by the way). I made a promise to myself to never let anyone else close to me ever again, never again would I have to wonder if someone's feelings were sincere. Everything she gave me was out of pity, I remember this every time I use my magic, some mother she was.

No! I corrected myself she was not my Mother. I don't have a mother! She never loved me, no one has ever loved me.

I sighed to myself and took a bite of the steel rod I was chewing on. I sat there eating my food, trying to forget my feelings and numb the sensation that I was missing a part of myself, I was alone in a room full of people.

Lucy's P.O.V:

"Wh-what happened to her all of a sudden?" I asked looking at the angry retreating figure and then at the broken notice board. I still can't believe how powerful she is! She didn't have to use any magic in that punch and she managed to do that amount of damage, was she even human?

"The same thing happened to Natty chan" Mirajane explained. "Maybe she saw herself in Romeo kun. Natsu's father left her when she was younger. Though by father I mean foster father and he's a dragon" she smiled pleasantly.

"A DRAGON!?" I exclaimed almost falling off my stool. "Natsu was raised by a dragon?"

"Yup. She was found by that dragon in a forest when she was little, she learned everything from him. But one day he left her. She doesn't like to talk about it, but sometimes I think she still feels alone even when she's surrounded by people" her eyes told me how much she wished she could take that pain away from her guild mate.

"So that's Igneel" I said more to myself then anyone else, it made sense now. She was still looking for him, following any lead she could. I silently wondered how much she loved him to still be looking after all these years, I also wondered how much of that happy-go-lucky attitude she had was real considering her past.

Did she know who her real parents were? Did she want to?

"The mages of Fairy Tail are all carrying something... wounds, pain, suffering... Myself included" I got the feeling that the last bit was not meant for me to hear so I left it. I could sense the sincerity in her words, I had seen it in the eyes of the members I met so far, behind all the smiles and laughter there was sadness, death and pain. That was what made this guild so special, every member had scars, they all depended on each other. They loved and took care of each other, so that on the days the painful memories decided to revisit, each person had another to lean on. Alone every member was a broken person together they made a beautiful jigsaw, a perfect family.

Natsu's P.O.V:

Uuuhhhhhh!

How did I get myself into this situation again! Never doing this again.

Bump!

"Oh God" I moaned. I was vaguely aware of the fact that Happy and I were being accompanied on our trip by Lucy. I could tell my face had yet again taken on a sickly green colour.

Bump!

Holy Moses. I just got sick in my mouth.

There was a sudden jerk and the the carriage stopped. Oh thank the baby Jesus. "It stopped" I exclaimed happily.

Lucy's P.O.V:

"We can't go any further than this with the carriage" apologised the coach driver.

"What's going on!?" I screamed.

I looked at Natsu in shock how was she so calm, she looked completely normal just watching the the driver go off out of sight through the blizzard, wait what !

"Hey wait, where is the carriage going? How are we going to get anywhere in this weather!"

"Walk of course" Happy squeaked on Natsu's shoulder.

I looked at him like he was crazy. Were they mad we?

"Hhow aare yyyyou n no freezing?" I stuttered, my teeth were now chattering involuntarily from the cold.

Natsu looked completely normal, below freezing temperatures, wind and snow coming at her from every direction, and she looked completely normal, what the fuck was up with her.

"Maybe if you wore more clothing you'd be warmer" she said eyeing my skirt and low necked top.

"This coming from the girl who's only being covered by bindings and a waist coat" I replied sharply. She just shrugged and walked on. i sighed before having an amazing idea.

I grabbed a blanket from Natsu's bag and took a key from my pocket.

"O-open the door to the clock HOROLOGIUM!" i shouted waving my key.

"WHOA" Happy and Natsu yelled in unison. I didn't have time to feel pride in my work, I was too cold. Hopping into my clock I sighed in relief. It may not have been warm but it protected me from the harsh winds and snow.

"I'll stay her" i said hiding my face in my blanket.

NO ONE'S P.O.V:

Natsu looked at the clock with curiosity, she had never seen a celestial mages magic at work before, it was quite amazing although Natsu couldn't really see any use for the clock other then protection maybe, but i mean who would want to be locked in an old talking clock instead of being able to fully enjoy the fight? it made little to no sense to Natsu but she just accepted it.

'What did she come here for' she thought to herself tuning out Lucy's complaints.

""By the way what job did Macau-san come here for?...she says" intones the old grandfather clock that was carrying the blonde celestial mage.

Natsu gave her an incredulous look, "You came here without knowing that?" she asked, "his job was to subdue the brutal monster Balkan".

"I want to go home! ... she says"

"Yes go home... says I" Natsu replied sarcastically "Aye" Happy agreed.

Natsu walked on. "Macau! ARE YOU HERE!? WERE YOU DONE IN BY THE BALKAN!?"

"NATSU LOOK OUT! ... She screams"
