This takes place a few months after the first chapter. I would like to thank you for all the reviews, favorites, and follows I have gotten for this story.

It was after the New Year and everyone in the guild was rather happy. They had tons of good news was being given since the first day of the year. Juvia had announced she was pregnant again, about three months. Bickslow and Lis were having twins, Yukino was close to giving birth to a little girl and Levy had given birth to a little girl named Paige.

Rogue was visiting with his family and the kids had just woken from a nap. Laxus was drinking with his team on the second floor and Lucy was talking to her team. Most of the boys were playing some game downstairs and Lia and Sky were playing with dolls.

Layla was sitting near him and his team in a spot where she could watch the other kids if she wanted, but instead she was reading one of Lucy's children novels called the Dragon and the Blue Fairy. A small gold colored dragon, no bigger than a cat was curled up next to her, his head resting on her lap. The dragon spirit Draco liked taking a smaller form when it came to being with Layla, he especially liked it when Layla read to him. His favorite books were Lucy's dragon series, in which different dragons fell in love with different kind of people. All those books were illustrated by Freed.

Laxus had been concerned seeing as she could only summon silver spirits, which he thought were less combat spirits. He wasn't sure how she was supposed to defend herself when she was earlier and took missions. He had believed that until she summoned Lupus the wolf, Draco, and Lepus the rabbit. Lupus was a giant white wolf that was very protective of Layla. Then there was the rabbit, which looked like a little stuffed rabbit most of the time but was a gigantic beast when his holder was threatened. Layla named him Momo. All her spirits called her Empress.

"Cosplayer is complaining again," Bickslow chuckled.

"She's probably worried. Poor Layla-sama was in the hospital for three weeks." Freed pointed out.

Laxus looked over at his little imp. She had missed the holidays because she had gotten sick. She had fainted and had a fever so bad that not even Gray could help.

"Did you hear what happened on her mission yesterday?" Bickslow smirked. "Natsu burned her top off. Wished I had seen that."

Laxus let out a warning growl.

"I might be with Lis but the girl has some nice tits despite having given birth to twins," Bickslow laughed. "I would-"

Laxus electrocuted his friend for that. No one talked about his wife like that.

He heard Layla giggled and sighed. He was supposed to stop electrocuting in front of the kids.

"Papa?"

"Yes, sweetie?"

"Am I weak?"

Laxus felt his heart shatter a little. He knew she wasn't the strongest celestial mage and didn't show any other kind of magic capabilities, but she was still young. Then again the old him would have been the first to call her weak.

"Of course not," Laxus stroked her hair. "You're still a little girl."

Layla frowned and bit her lip. "Then why am I in the hospital all the time?"

"I don't know. Papa used to get sick when he was little, all the time." Laxus forced a smile.

This seemed to satisfy Layla as she returned to her seat, Draco was now gone. She was now watching the other kids.

Gale and Sky came up to the second floor to talk to Layla.

Laxus let out another growl. He didn't like these little boys always near his daughter. They were always around her like there was no other girl in the world. Igneel had even said that he was going to mate with Layla when he was older. Lucy had spent an hour talking him down, saying how Igneel had no idea what the word actually meant.

"Layla come play with us!" Igneel yelled.

Layla shook her head.

"Please?" Gale smiled.

Layla shook her head again and Gale walked away defeated. Sky was about to leave, but Layla shook her head. Sky nodded and sat down next to Layla.

Laxus raised an eyebrow but ignored it. Everything was peaceful until Igneel and Gale started fighting. At first it was tiny and then they were using their powers, Alex tried to calm them down.

"They're being loud again," Layla growled.

Laxus noticed that as the powers began to fly Layla got more irritated.

Suddenly Alex let out a cry as a stray flame hit his arm. Lucy rushed to her son and suddenly Igneel was shocked, Minerva rushed to her son.

"Laxus how could you!" Minerva yelled. "He didn't mean to!"

"I'll heal him in a minute," Wendy said as she knelt to heal Alex.

"Wasn't me," Laxus put his hands in the air. He and the others stared in shock.

"Papa?"

Laxus looked at Layla to see her holding up her hands, sparks of electricity was coming from her hands.

Laxus let out a smile. His daughter had just gotten her powers.

"I'm sorry," Layla began to tear up. "I was mad because he hurt Alex."

Laxus picked her up and held her close, stroking her hair. "It's okay. You didn't mean to."

"He's fine," Wendy smiled as she healed Igneel.

"Layla that was so cool!" Igneel yelled. Definitely his father's son.

"Layla got her powers, let's party!" Gramps yelled and everyone followed suite.

"That's why she was getting sick so much, magic overload," Laxus heard Wendy explain to Lucy.

Lucy came up to the second floor with Alex in her arms. She didn't look happy. "Laxus where did she learn to shock people from?"

I named Momo after the first con I ever went to. I wasn't sure if anyone caught the fact that I was implying that Lucy was related to Mavis in the last chapter. Also all of Lucy's storied are relating to the idea of a slayer falling in love, except that instead of being a slayer they are actual dragons.
