A/N: yaaaay! Winter break! The best bits about school are are the weekend, going home, break and lunch and the holidays! Since it's almost Christmas, and I apologise in advance for those of you who wanted to know more about the GruVia situation, I decided to do a few Christmassy chapters for the story. They aren't necessarily part of the main plot but I was in the mood to write and I now have plenty of time so hey! A new chapter. XD

Also, I'll answer all reviews last since I want to get on with the chapter so withought further delay:


Fairy Tail, a powerful guild filled with mages of many different talents. Ice mages, water mages and even a few dragon slayers. These talented wizards were friends with one of the most unique wizards yet to have come, Lucy Heartfilia.

Lucy gave a puzzled look at nothing in oarticular as she fished out a rather large book from her over flowing wardrobe. As she turned the pages, she realised that it was her scrap book, the one she had started to create ever since she joined fairy tail. As she turned another page she came across a photo that was taken later on in the previous year. She remembered it like yesterday; the entire guild was preparing for one of the biggest events in all of Fiore: Christmas! There were five days left until the big day and everyone was busy with the necessary arrangements and ordeals.

Day 1

Wyvern was busy learning how to make paper chains when Lucy walked in. She was wearing a red dress that had white lining and her hair was tied up in her usual style but had candy can clips that kept some of her bangs out of her eyes. She sat down besides Wyvernand helped him out with the tangled strips of paper that were taped to his fingers

"here, let me help with that", she smiled as she helped untangle Wyvern out of the chain.

" He made so many I Was having trouble keeping up, even with Carla helping me," Wendy said from underneath a pile of decorations. Lucy laughed and told them to take a break. As they trio went down thy heard Levy and Gajeel bickering.

" Gajeel you can't eat the star!" Levy yelled as she tried to jump up and grab the metal tree topper for him.

"Whatever, shorty, it looks good so I will eat it!" He replied as he held the star higher.

" Eat the cookies not the ornaments!" Levy was in a hopeless situation when Wyvern intervened. He crept up behind Gajeel and swiped the ornament out of the metal dragon slayers hand.

"Hey! Give it back! How'd ya get it in the first place any ways?!" Gajeel exclaimed in surprise.

"It was easy.I am taller than you so you couldn't really keep it away from me like you did with Levy", he said picking Wendy up so she could place it back on the tree.

" That's one tree down, now we got do the one in masters office, Fairy Hills and the main hall in the guild. Thanks for the help Wyvern!" Levy sighed as she began to walk towards Makarovs office with Gajeel trailing behind her. Gajeel was eyeing the box of ornaments with greed and Lucy wanted to spare Levy the trouble.

"Levy! We can do the tree in the hall and Fairy Hills", Lucy called out. Levy turned around walked back to the trio.

" Are you sure? The one in the hall if really big and then you'd have to walk all the way to Fairy Hills to decorate the halls there", She asked trying to sound as if she could manage but Lucy know that inside, Levy was begging her to do it for her.

" Sure! It'll be easy!" Lucy smiled.

~~O~~

Lucy wasn't so sure when they reached the , who currently riding on Wyverns back, reacted the same way. She got off before Wyvern opened up multiple boxes of ornaments and decorations and looked up at the ten feet high tree.

" How are we going to decorate that? " Lucy asked, hoping that the other two would have a idea.

" I'm sorry but I don't have any ideas," Wendy told her, shrugging her shoulders.

" The bottom but will be easy and so will the top if we climb the stairs but the branches in between,that's going to be a problem", Wyvern commented, scratching his chin. Lucy sighed. Wyvern was right, it was going to be a problem decorating the middle bits.

"Well let's get going with the lowest branches first", Lucy said, trying to be positive after all, it was the holidays.

The trio were busy with decorating when Natsu walked in with Happy.

"Hey, Wendy! Have you seen the idiot who backed out of a fight?" He asked the little girl. The person in question looked at Natsu from behind a branch and nfelt his temper rising.

"Wyvern was somewhere here but... I think he went to get more decorations but I'm not really sure", Wendy replied. Natsu asked the same thing to Lucy but she didn't know either.

" Where is that bastard?!" Natsu exclaimed. Wyvern, despite the fact that he was right there behind a branch, made no move to be seen. He know what Natsu wanted and didn't want to fight him just yet. Everyone else had gotten over the showdown between the two almost immediately but Natsu held his own defeat against Wyvern. Wyvern tried to keep his emotions under control butcher could see the scales beginning to appear on his arms. He touched his cheek and felt the scales there as well. He did the only thing he could think of to escape, climbing the tree infront of him.

"Hey, why I'd the tree moving like that?" Happy asked when he noticed the tree move as Wyvern was climbing it.

"Maybe it's the wind", Natsu suggested. Lucy shook her head.

" The windows aren't even open so that can't be the reason", she said. As they wondered why the tree was shaking, Wyvern was struggling to climb higher without breaking any branches and falling. Why was this the only idea I could come up with? He mentally face palmed himself as he climbed higher. He was almost high enough to grab the balcony railing when he felt somethin-or someone- violently shaking the tree.

"Hey! New guy! I know it's you up there! Come back down and fight me!" Natsu yelled.

"Natsu leave him alone!" Lucy shouted as she dragged Natsu away from the tree. Wyvern resumed climbing a little more before hoisting himself on to the second floor balcony. He sighed as he ran his hand through his blue-silver hair. His scales still hadn't disappeared and he knew that if he didn't calm down soon, he would be able to fly and one thing always led to another.

Natsu was currently arguing with Lucy, distracted by the various dragon shaped ornaments, so Wyvern took the chance to, get the heck out of the hall. The only problem was how he was going to do that.

"Luce, I'll pick an ornament later! Let me fight the idiot so that I can be the strongest in Fairy Tail again", Natsu said as he ran up the stairs heading straight for Wyvern.

" can we please not fight? It's the holidays and we're supposed to be helping out with preparations", Wyvern said, trying to cover his face.

" Sorry buddy, but I got a score to settle", Natsu's hand lit up in flames as he charged for Wyvern. Wyvern dodged with plenty of seconds to spare, and he slid down the staircase railing. Natsu turned around and jumped down to the ground floor, stopping to stuff a gingerbread cookie in his mouth, before continuing.

"Dont run away from me! What happened to all that power from last time?!" Natsu smirked. Lucy stood in front of Wyvern and slowly took out her keys.

"Natsu! If you don't leave up him alone then I'll Lucy kick you and then get Loke to finish you off!" She threatened. Natsu shivered with fear. He wasn't scared of Loke, it was the Lucy kick that scared him the most. It was strong enough to send him across the room and hard enough to leave a bruise.

"Stay out of it, Lucy!" Natsu said, " fire dragon... ROAR!"

Natsu let out a breath of fire aimed at Wyvern but he managed to duck and get Lucy away safely. Wyvern ran towards a more defensive position and let the scales devour his arm. If Natsu wanted a fight he would have to be satisfied with only a few quick blows.

" I told you I don't want to fight!" Wyvern growled.

" Shut up, coward! Fire dragons... ROAR!" As Natsu let out another fury of flames, Wyvern hello out a tray in front of him, using it as a shield. The flames bounced off of the tray and onto-

" The tree!" Lucy shrieked pointing at the tree, which was now on fire.

" It's on fire! Wyvern get away from there!" Happy exclaimed. Wendy ran outside to get Juvia as Lucy tried calling Aquarius.

"Why won't it work?!" Lucy yelled out in frustration when she couldn't get the celestial gate to open, "oh right, I need water. Natsu, quit being an idiot and get me some water fast!"

Natsu ran out to find some water whilst Wyvern cleared the hall of any small objects that could catch fire. The tree was almost completely devoured by the flames when both Wendy and Natsu returned, Juvia running behind them.

"What can Juvia do to help our?" Juvia asked, taking the sight of the tree in.

" Can you try to get rid of the flames with your water?" Lucy asked hurriedly.

" Juvia can try but Juvia will need the help of Aquarius to put us a fire that big", She replied calmly. Juvia was doing fine putting out the fire when Aquarius' gate finally opened.

" Why did you call me?" She demanded, glaring daggers at Lucy.

" I swear it's an emergency! The tree's on fire thanks to Natsu and Juvia needs you help putting it out", Lucy pleaded.

Aqarius sighed as she used her water pillar to put out the growing fire, purposely washing Lucy and the others away.

"'Don't call me again for another two months. I'm going on holiday with my boyfriend, yes, boyfriend. You should get one yourself, that blue haired guy seems interested", She said before going back to the spirit realm.

lucy sighed as she turned around to inspect the damage.

" All that... And after I promised Levy that I would do Fairy Hills as well" Lucy whined. Wyvern watched as his friend cried anime tears. He looked at Wendy and whispered something in her ear. Wendy smiled and got back on his shoulders before placing the half-eaten star on the top of the burnt tree.

"Lucy, at least the tree looks good", Wyvern tried cheering her up. Lucy turned around to face the tree. The hall was half burnt and half intact, the ornaments were either broken or soaked and the tree was no longer a tree, just a burnt stick with flickering lights around it and half a star.

"Juvia will do Fairy Hills and Erza can help out. Juvia isn't busy so it will be no trouble", Juvia said as she placed her hat back on her head before walking out of the guild hall.

"Day one of preparations done, four more to go" Lucy sighed through sobs.

brilliz: The main couple... Hmmmm im not really sure but I think it's going to be Lucy and Wyvern. All I can say is that it won't be a NaLu because I didn't think it would work with what I've got planned and I kinda promised a friend that I wouldn't turn it into a NaLu.
