Hey, guys! Look out for humor, bromance, romance, and JeRza! As for all of you who have been bearing with me on the Clover town setup, and I promise you, that it will be worth it completely! I am hoping you guys like this, because I have been working out sooooo many details since chapter one. Hiro mashima owns fairy tail and all of it's characters (except Lillia!) not me! And without further ado, I present to you the next chapter!

Lillia Walked into the guild after a long train ride to see it strangely calm. She, Romeo, and Wendy found a table, and hoped for the quiet to last just a little bit longer before the pandemonium would kick back up. Laxus came into the room with Cana, and they were both laughing their heads off. Mira looked at them with a smile, and greeted them warmly.

"It's nice to see you two, but what's so funny?" the barmaid asked after a little while.

"It's a prank, it was all a prank! I can't believe you stayed with it for so long!" Cana laughed. Mira looked at the two in confusion.

"What are you talking about?" she asked them.

"The child! It was a prank!" Laxus tried to say between fits of laughter. Mira froze. Her features distorted in a fit of rage, and in a flash, she had literally punched the two through the roof of the guild without transforming into any of her satan souls. The angellic barmaid sank to the ground and started to sob. Lillia stood up and walked over to the dangerous woman.

Lillia patted the take over mage on the back and helped her up.

"What was that about?" the young bluenette asked.

"Th-those two sa-aid they were going to have a child!" Mira hiccuped between sobs. Lillia pittied the poor fools, she knew how Mira loved babies. Lillia rubbed calming circles on the older woman's back.

"Come on, I have something that might cheer you up," Lillia said quietly. She led Mira to the kitchen.

Once safely in the clean, spacious room, Lillia shut the door behind them with a grin.

"Have you ever heard of the soul rose celebration?" she asked. Mira wiped away her tears.

"Yeah, but I thought that it was next month," Mira responded, leaning on one of the counters.

"Really, I think you may have misread your calendar," Lillia replied.

"It was while you were there?" Mira asked, dumbfounded.

"Yeah, do you know the point of it?" Lillia asked the barmaid. Again she started to stare at certain ingredients and pick up cooking utensils.

"Yes... Is there a point to this, Lillia?" Mira questioned as she watched the young mage start to bake another cake.

"There is... It's about my team mates... Now you have a chance to guess what happened," Lillia said, cracking an egg in a very professional manner.

"Did Romeo actually?" Mira asked, but her voice was getting very high with excitement.

"Well, I helped him a bit with finding Wendy... Not that it matters, the crowd pushes people together, and I was part of the crowd right?" Lillia replied playfully. She had started making the frosting by then. Mira smiled broadly. Little did anyone at the guild know of the council heading towards tham as they were peacefully having an unusually quiet day.

The doors burst open revealing a large group of people in white cloaks. A woman wearing an imperial white cloak came in. She was obviously the leader of the large group.

"Where is the master of this guild?" she asked, looking around the small building with disdain.

"I'm right here," the master said from the bar, "What do you want?"

"We are putting this entire guild on lockdown for harboring a fugitive," she said in a commanding tone. The master looked at her inquisitively.

"Are you sure that this is the right guild, ma'am? We haven't had any fugitives around here ever," he said pleasantly. Lillia came out of the kitchen with a cake on a platter, humming slightly to herself.

"You!" the woman said, pointing at Lillia. Lillia dropped the cake to the floor as her mind started to race. What did she do? Was she a fugitive? Did she escape? Was she evil? Why couldn't she remember? Lillia was horrified as all of those questions ran through her head.

"Have you seen a man with blue hair and a red tattoo anywhere?" the woman asked.

"No, ma'am!" Lillia said quickly. The woman growled.

"We'll be back in one hour, there are runes around the perimiter of this building, so no mages can come through. We will be questioning everyone here," she said. Turning around, she passed through the rune barrier easily. Lillia stood in dread. Mira started cleaning the cake from the floor as Lillia was frozen in place.

The council people kept their promise and came back exactly one hour later with truth detectors as promised. All of the people got called in one by one, and Lillia dreaded her turn more and more by the minute. Romeo went in for a little while, and then Wendy, and finally, her name got called. Walking into yet another room in the back, which was now set up for enterrogation, Lillia timidly took a seat as she was told. The woman sat on the other end of the table, she had orange hair and obsidian eyes.

Looking down at some paperwork, she eyed Lillia cautiously.

"So, you're new here?" she asked. Lillia nodded, feeling pressure under her gaze.

"Yes, ma'am, I came in about a week ago," she said timidly.

"You say you have amnesia in this report, and you can't fill out several fields in the paperwork because of this, is that true?" the woman questioned.

"Yes ma'am, I have no recollection of some of the answers to those questions," Lillia replied, her voice a little higher than usual.

"I'm going to trust you on those ones, but I need you to put your hand into this cuff right here. This is a truth detector, and it will inform me if you lie at all. Lying to the magic council can result in serious punishment, do you understand?" the woman asked, painfully professional.

"Yes ma'am," Lillia replied, putting her hand into a cuff with a chain leading to a crystal ball.

"You have nothing to be afraid of if you haven't done anything against the law," the woman assured her. Lillia swallowed, her throat was tight and dry.

"Yes ma'am."

"This is the first question, what does the name Jellal Fernandes mean to you?" the woman asked, looking at the paper work. Lillia felt some sweat break out on her forehead.

"Ma'am, Jellal Fernandes means a person who messed with the council in the past, but I can't remember why because of my amnesia," Lillia said, very hoarse. The woman looked at the crystal ball carefully, but nodded. Lillia wasn't lying about that.

"Have you seen Jellal within the past seven years?" the woman asked, moving an inch closer to Lillia's face.

"Well, ma'am... I can't remember anything until up to a week ago, so if I had seen him, I wouldn't have known," Lillia said, this was the truth also, but she wasn't exactly answering the question. The woman pursed her lips.

"That's all for now, you are dismissed," she said. Lillia thanked her, got up, and left the room quietly.

Lillia sighed and wiped some sweat from her brow, walking into the bright guild. She smiled, and promptly tripped over her own feet, crashing to the floor.

"I'm okay!" she exclaimed, popping back up with a small scrape on her elbow. She made her way to the other side of the guild, where Romeo and Wendy were sitting and chatting.

"So, Lillia. When do you think it would be a good time to bring your stuff to my place?" Wendy asked.

"Oh, right! I had completely forgotten about that offer... I would say whenever you're ready, because I own practically nothing," Lillia said, rubbing the back of her neck awkwardly.

"Oh, okay then, we should be ready for you by tomorrow assuming that the council lets us out of here," the other bluenette replied.

"Wow, Wendy, you're really nice," Lillia said gratefully.

The council completely scrutinised the guild that afternoon, and by sundown they let the fairies go. Lillia stayed at the guild that night, but didn't get much sleep, she kept thinking about how Jellal might have already gotten the message and how he might already be heading back there, and how he might already be coming into view the council as she fretted about him. She eventually slipped into a light sleep, only to be awoken at sunrise.

Lillia hung out around the guild for a few hours, mostly with her head on a table, nearly falling asleep but being woken up by the crash of something breaking because of a fight or something. Eventually, Wendy came into the guild, and told Lillia to get her things and she would be ready to have her. Lillia took her small stuffsack, which she hadn't emptied yet, and went. Everything she owned was in there, including her money.

Wendy led Lillia to a spacious suite that had a mini kitchen in a corner, a bathroom, and then one main room. There was a twin sized bed on stilts (aka, a loft bed.) and a very small bed that Lillia assumed belonged to Charla. There were several shelves pressed up against the walls, and a couple of bean bag chairs, but other than that the room was very clean and devoid of furniture or clutter.

"Wow, this is really nice," Lillia marvelled. Wendy shuffled her feet.

"Yeah, it's nice," she replied.

"Is it okay if I look up there? I think it would be so strange to have a bed up in the air," Lillia asked, pointing to the loft bed. Wendy nodded, and Lillia quickly climbed the ladder. She leaned way out over the edge. "Wow, this is so strange, I feel like I'm in another room or something," she said in wonder. Leaning out just a little too far, she tumbled over the edge of the bed and fell to the floor with a thud. Wendy rushed over to her.

"Are you okay?" she asked worriedly. Lillia rubbed her knees and back, but nodded.

"I've had worse landings, I think," Lillia replied, but she sounded winded.

"Okay, maybe you shouldn't go up there again, though," Wendy conceded.

"Agreed," Lillia responded, getting up again.

Several hours later, Levy and Lucy came over to check on how Lillia was doing. Wendy opened the door after a few knocks, and the two teenagers saw said re-quip mage sitting in one of the beanbag chairs trying to untangle an unfathomably tangled nest of yarn on two knitting needles. Noticing the visitors, Lillia tried to wave but her fingers were all tangled in the yarn, and so was her hand. Unable to break the grip of the rainbow nest, Lillia reached for some scissors, and soon got her other hand and the scissors caught in it.

"Want some help with that?" Levy asked the mage, who now had part of her clothes stuck.

"No, I got this," Lillia replied. She soon got her foot stuck in the multicolored mess. In a last attempt at freedom, she somehow got her bun stuck in the crazy muckus of the yarn. Levy came over with a knowing smile on her face, and borrowed a knife to cut the yarn, which was holding Lillia in a position that never could be obtained in even the wildest game of twister.

"Arigato..." Lillia said, stretching, and clearing little snippets of yarn fom her person. "Wendy, I don't think that knitting my thing," she said, turning to her friend and now room mate.

"Heh heh, yeah," Wendy chuckled.

"Hide your sewing needles," Lucy whispered to the girl.

"Already did," Wendy replied. Lillia had some tea started for the guests by the time that short exchange was over. Levy was seated in a beanbag chair, and watched as the re-quip mage cleaned up the yarn, and threw the still tangled mess into a trash can. Lucy pulled another beanbag chair next to her friend, and the two did some small talk with eachother and their two young hosts until the tea was ready. After the tea, it was already dark out, and the two visitors said goodbye to the girls and left to their various appartments.

Lillia made a make-shift bed underneath Wendy's loft bed out of some beanbag chairs and some blankets that Wendy loaned her. Wendy went to bed as Lillia brushed her teeth, and by the time the other mage came into the room, Wendy seemed to be asleep. Laying down in the blanket beanbag hybrid that Lillia was currently calling a bed, the re-quip mage soon slipped into a light, restless sleep.

Eventually, she got woken up by a small shout. Lillia opened her eyes grumpily and looked around. There was a small voice coming from the loft bed, Lillia blearily climbed the steps of the ladder to see Wendy asleep with her face morphed in fear.

"No! Wait! Grandine, Natsu! please don't leave me behind!" she wimpered. Lillia watched her turn and reach out. "No, please! You can't! Romeo!" Lillia decided it was time to wake her up. Gently taking the girl's foot, she gave it a little shake, and Wendy sat straight up, banging her head on the ceiling. "Oww," she whined, rubbing the top of her head, then her features became a panicked mask, she frantically got up from her spot and looked around the bed, completely unaware of the re-quip mage staring at her. Lillia looked at the now frantic bluenette, uncertain of what to do.

"Umm, hey?" she asked. Wendy turned her frightened gaze over to her room mate, and she sighed in relief.

"Oh, so it was just a dream after all," she sighed, sitting back down on her bed. She looked at Lillia for a long time. "You know, this is the first time I've seen you let your hair down," the small bluenette stated. Lillia looked down at her extremely light blue locks that fell down a little past her shoulders.

"So it is," Lillia replied, pulling her fingers through the slightly messy mane. Lillia was still standing on the ladder, and her feet were starting to hurt from putting all of her weight on a thin strip of metal, so she started to go back down.

"Wait!" Wendy wimpered. Lillia came back up to the bed, and leaned on it with her elbows.

"What's wrong?" she asked, yawning a little. Wendy sat with her legs crossed.

"I had a nightmare that everyone was leaving me... You won't leave, will you?" the sky dragon slayer said with pleading eyes. Lillia remembered how she had heard about the girl's "mother", Grandine, had left her, and then her entire first guild that became her family again was all a whistful dream. She must have nightmares about her family leaving her, Lillia then realised that Wendy thought of her as family now.

"No, I'll just be under the bed," she replied, taking a step down. Lillia was fairly sure that she could just close her eyes as she neared the bottom, but quickly lost her balance and fell off again.

Getting back into the bed after Wendy had healed a sprained ankle, Lillia fell back into a softer, deeper sleep.

It was a simple, cream colored room, there were some sliding glass doors on one side, and the sun was setting, causing everything to be a greyish purple. The room was lit by a bright white, average light in the ceiling. It seemed to be summer, and there was an opened window, letting some breeze flow through the room. A mattress was on the floor with a pinkish quilt on top. Lillia turned to a tapping noise coming from the glass doors. Opening the door, that looked like nothing was on the other side, she was surprised to find two young children in long long shirts. one had long hair that fell down her back and stopped at her hips, and one had short hair that stuck out all over. They both looked like they were no older than five years old. They both had light brown hair, and the first one's dress was light pink. The second's dress was light blue.

"Who are you?" she asked them drowsily.

"We are little twin stars," they both said at the same time, their voices seemed small yet etherial.

"You mean celestial spirits? where's your key holder?" Lillia asked, looking around.

"We are not spirits," they said scornfully, "We are stars." Lillia's eyelids were so heavy, she wanted to close them and rest on the bed in the sluggish breeze. The children ran around her into the room, and held eachother's hands, jumping up and down. Lillia turned around and walked over to the two.

"Come on, guys. Don't do that," she requested in a lazy voice.

"You hurt our feelings!" the two cried out, their voices seemed to linger in the air for a moment before fading. One of them ran behind her, and somehow got her flower pin holding up her hair. Lillia's feet seemed too heavy to move. Her hair cascaded down her back, it was longer than it was before. Both of the children jumped in front of her.

"Please give me back the hair pin," Lillia asked. The two young children stopped jumping. The girl, who was clutching the hair pin, started crying, and the boy started laughing. Lillia willed her leg to move, but it didn't, and for some reason she couldn't sink to the ground either.

The girl ran at the wall, and leaped onto it as if it were the floor. The boy started going in the other direction, and soon they were running from wall to ceiling to wall to floor in opposite directions, their laughter and crying echoeing through the room. It was like a web of sound and rushing children, and Lillia was in the exact center of it, keeping it from falling, and pulling so it stayed taught at the same time. Lillia started screaming, the laughter and crying filling all of the space in the room. Lillia screamed and screamed and screamed, until she couldn't breathe any more, and then she tried to scream some more.

Jolting upright, Lillia had no idea why all she was seeing was light blue. Shaking her head, she realised she was tangled in the sheets and her hair was covering her face. Pulling her arm free, Lillia pushed her hair away, and got her sheets untangled. Getting out of bed, Lillia looked around. She could hear Wendy in the shower, and Charla was still out on her solo mission. Re-quipping into a dark purple sundress with a large, white star on the front, Lillia brushed her hair and put in her flower pin, her hair completely out of her face. Wendy came out of the shower a few minutes later, her hair was dry, and she was in a green sundress with a black belt around the middle, and a few daisies on the end of the belt next to the beltbuckle.

"You can help yourself to anything in the fridge," Wendy said as she put all of her hair into a long side ponytail. Lillia thanked her and got out some milk, finding some cereal in the cabinets, she got some breakfast, and the girls headed towards the guild.

"I think I'll do a small mission today," Lillia told her friend on the way over.

"Oh, okay then. Maybe you could buy an actual bed if you get enough extra money," Wendy reasoned. Lillia shook her head.

"Nah, I think I'll go with a plain matress and bedding, I really feel weird taking up so much space," the other bluenette replied.

"But you are paying for half of the rent, and we could set up a weekly grocery plan so that's even too," the sky dragon slayer pointed out to her friend.

"Oh, yeah. That would work really well," Lillia said. Their conversation went on like that, with the weekly schedule and that sort of thing.

When the two got into the guild, there was another group of coulcil members milling around, or looking all around the guild at that point. The same woman from before was talking to the master. Erza came up to the two girls.

"Student, we will do training once every week until I deem you a master of the basics of re-quip magic," the knight commanded.

"Hai, sensei!" Lillia replied, by then whenever her master took that tone of voice, it was compulsory to reply as such. The woman from before glanced at the two girls, and then went back into her conversation with the master. Lillia shuddered.

The two girls were still tired from the night before, and Lillia decided to browse the job board. There were a few inside Magnolia, so she took them down and went over to a small table out of the council's eyes.

The first one was for teaching a class how to knit, that one was a big NO. Lillia didn't even understand how that had anything to do with magic. The next one was finding a magic talisman that somebody lost, and Lillia put that one aside for later. After that was a strange one for a travelling play group, there were a lot of Arigatos on it, and Lillia had no idea why. She put that one aside, too. The next one was to undo the curse on a locket, and the last one was to steal a potion from a certain herbalist. Lillia wasn't even sure if it was legal.

Picking up the one for the play group, Lillia Looked at the reward. It was only twenty thousand, but it wasn't exactly an advanced job. It read: "Please help our travelling play group get some attention, arigato. Report on the west side of town, arigato. there will be two performances, spread flyers and do a side show at the entrance to the play, arigato." The flyer went on like that for several more lines, and Lillia decided that maybe it would be easy to just do that one for that day.

Going over to Mira, Lillia showed her the flyer, and soon went out to the location of the actor's camp. The camp had about ten tents, and people milling around it and rehearsing random lines. A short man was looking around, and soon spotted the young mage.

"Arigato for coming!" he said in a slightly nasally voice. They exchanged pleasantries and Then the short man handed her a stack of flyers half her height. "Time to start work!" the small man said cheerfully, "Arigato."

Ha ha, sorry about there not being much relevance to this chapter, I have no idea as to why I even wrote it. Just read it and wait for the next chapter, because I needed to get some of the irrelevant things out of the way before I started it (All that writers block for nothing, Imma have to look into getting writersblock-ectomy!). ARIGATO! 'Till the next chapter!

~Lillia Enchanted!
