"You and Natsu…" Mira said hesitantly. "You were close. Really, really close."

Lisanna pondered about it. "So… we were best friends?" She asked. "I guess that would make sense. Who wouldn't be sad if their best friend died? Poor Natsu… or, am I missing something here?"

Mira shook her head. "You… you used to joke about marrying him, when you were kids."

"What?!"

The elder sibling ignored the interruption. "It was really cute. You used to say 'one day, I'm going to marry Nats! Me, him, and Happy, like a real family!' oh… judging by that look on your face, you're confused why Happy is involved?" – Lisanna nodded – "Happy was just an egg when Natsu found him. And you helped Natsu. It was really sweet, you guys were like a family. You even built a little house…"

"I still don't understand. Did I… love him, or something?" Lisanna asked. "It's all so much… was Natsu different before the me here died?"

Mira nodded sadly. "Of course." She said. "He used to be so carefree and reckless in nature. But he was also a fiercely loyal and protective friend. He was so close to you, because of that, no one in Fairy Tail mentioned you out of respect for his feelings."

"This world is so different…" Lisanna commented. "I… it feels like everyone here is living for a reason. In my world, it almost as if we're just repeating history every day, we go to school, go to work. Almost nothing ever changes. Here, it feels as if anything could affect the whole world."

"Don't say that," Mira said. "I believe that everyone exists for a reason, as small as it can be… I'm sure that you have a meaning too."

"You're so optimistic." Lisanna commented.

Mira smiled. "It's all because of you I'm so optimistic."

"What?"

"When you died, something in me changed, I suppose I realized how terrible of a person I was and just… changed." Mira said. "You know, I used to have a really punkish attitude and used to bully a lot of people. The shock of you dying caused my personality to shift drastically… I even lost my will to fight, and the vast majority of my magic power."

"What kind of mage are you, by the way?"

"I'm a take-over mage." Mira said. "Well, to be more specific, they used to call me 'The Demon, Mirajane'."

"I wonder if Natsu's sad or happy that I'm here…" Lisanna wondered.

"You'll have to find that out for yourself."


"I'll have to go out on a job soon." Natsu said. "You wanna come with?"

"Huh?"

"Mira didn't tell you?" He asked, shaking his head. "The people without powers ask us to do things for them, and we get paid. Well, that's the gist of it anyway. So do you wanna come with?"

"I don't think I would be much help." She said. "After all, even if I can use magic here I've never practiced before."

"Hmm I never thought of that." Natsu admitted. Looking up. "Let me think…"

While Natsu thought over what she could do to help him, Lisanna smiled. It seemed like she saw the Natsu that her sister had talked about. He was dense, and he was carefree, and he didn't think about the consequenses of his actions. She found it rather cute. Though he was really caring about it just now.

He must not want me to die again. She thought to herself. Of course, who would want to watch their friend die twice in their lifetime…

"Don't you think?"

"Huh"

Natsu shook his head, smiling. "You really should listen more." Then he laughed. "Funny, that's what everyone used to tell me, 'Natsu, you really should listen to us more'."

Lisanna laughed. "Funny."

"Isn't it?" He said. "So is there anything you're good at? In terms of fighting, I mean. If you can't I won't force you to come. I won't let you die twice Lisanna." He frowned.

The white-hair blushed. It was really sweet of him to be concerned for her. Can I really fight in a battle? She asked herself. I…

"I can use a Japanese sword. My brother taught me how to use it. I swing it around at home all the time." She said. "I'm pretty good at it, actually. Well, he says I am anyway, my brother I mean..."

"A sword huh?" He asked. "I'll bet we can borrow that from Erza. She'll be pretty surprised to see you're here. You should wear a disguise. Though I usually go on jobs with Team Natsu. We should figure out what your identity is."

Identity… huh? She wondered. Who am I here? Should I even exist here? What's my name? When and where was I born? Who are my parents and why am I here? Why am I in Fairy Tail?

All this seemed so exciting to her. She was enthusiastic. "I'm excited! This is so exciting!" She exclaimed. "What should my name be?"

"Haha." Natsu laughed at her enthusiasm. "How about 'Jane' from your sister, Mirajane?"

"I like that name." She said. "But how about the last name?"

"I dunno, just pick a random one… Akiyama?" He asked. "I just chose the first thing that came to my head. How about that?"

"Er… OK?" Lisanna said, a bit hesitantly. "Don't we need any more information though?"

"Not really." He said. "You just need a name and they won't be snoopy. Lucy might be, but I'm sure you can make up something."

She was a bit dissapointed, but she said. "You're a really nice person Natsu."

"You think?"

"Yeah. Do you think this job thing will work out?"

"Probably." He answered. "We'll see tomorrow." He said, closing his eyes.

"We'll see."
