This is going to be a very short chapter, just because I mentioned her earlier in the storyline.
I also decided to use this chapter in place of Mystogan from the other story. I didn't think that I could really add anything to the story if I gave him a separate chapter in this timeline. Let's just have it be assumed that approximately the same events would happen as a result of Natsu's death as it had with Wendy's.
Hope you enjoy!
Chapter 7: Lisanna
LISANNA POV
Natsu…
If only I hadn't been a coward and left with you when you came to the Edolas Fairy Tail guild. I couldn't have used my magic, but I could've helped somehow. You wouldn't have been captured, and I wouldn't be feeling this guilt. I never thought that the last time I would ever see you, you would be looking at me with an expression of betrayal and loss.
I was serious back then, about marrying you someday. When I was sent to Edolas to replace the Lisanna that had died there, I thought I lost my chance. The Natsu there was clearly closer to Lucy and I wasn't interested. He wasn't you.
I missed your smile. I missed your rambunctiousness in the guild hall. I thought when I had "died", I would never see you again. The others told me about the grave you made for me. At the place where we hatched Happy together. There are so many memories there, but now it's just painful. I was able to say goodbye to my Edolas-siblings, but I couldn't say goodbye to you. I didn't know I had to.
But now that I'm back, you're gone. I missed my chance again to tell you how I feel. For real this time. Not just some silly child fantasy. I just wish that I could go back and tell myself to go with you. To take a chance.
But I was just a selfish coward instead.
