Chapter 10: Family and return
Flair POV
"Laxus!" I shouted peeking my head out of the bathroom. "Can you make the stroller for Faye ready, so we can leave?" I asked hearing Faye's happy giggles. I smiled. Yeah, we did name her after my mother (just a different spelling). Seeing she had strong Fairy magic just as a baby, now as a one year old though, she had started to show signs of Laxus' magic too. She would definitely get strong with the years.
"But I'm playing with her!" he complained. I rolled my eyes.
"And I know of one guy that will not get anything for the rest of this week unless he gets his ass moving, now!" I threatened. That always did the trick. I heard him swallow heavily and hand Faye over to Evergreen who started making baby noises at once.
I came out of the bathroom pulling my hair into the usual ponytail and went over to the couch where Ever was sitting with Faye. I looked at my daughter and grinned. "You like playing with aunt, Ever, don't you?" I asked as Ever handed her over. "Thank you," I said and Faye started laughing trying to reach for my hair.
"She's such a troublesome child," Ever giggled. I nodded in agreement.
Bickslow, Freed and Laxus cursed from outside. Most likely having problems with the stroller again. Something crashed and broke, followed by more cursing. We laughed.
"Oh, gee. Would have thought that three men could handle one innocent stroller," Ever complained. I agreed.
"Mmhm…most of the time I have to do everything myself if I want something done," I then said and stood up.
"Okay, it's ready!" Laxus said and came in to get Fae. I gave her over to him and turned to Ever.
"Ready for more practice?" I asked and we started walking our way to the guild.
After having Faye I noticed that losing the Fairy God slayer lacrima only made my dragon slaying powers stronger. The lacrima had gotten in the way to show my full potential with my dragon powers, so in a way I was thankful that it was now gone. Also I had started full training after having Faye. I could honestly say I was as strong as Laxus without that training; however, we trained anyway, especially for my body. Now I was back in shape and did jobs with Laxus once or twice a month while the guild watched over Faye. They all loved her.
Faye got Laxus' blonde hair and my violet eyes. Her looks are closest to mine, but her powers are now a mix with both Laxus' and mine.
I have not seen my mother Fae the Fairy Dragon since that day she disappeared, however, I know she will come back eventually when she is ready. We're all looking for clues when taking missions, I mean, it's quite strange having all the dragons disappearing the same day and year, so it must have been for a reason. We just wonder why.
"Hey, guys!" Mira called as we stepped into the guild. She hurried over so she could spoil Faye with attention. "Hello, little fairy," she cooed. Faye answered with a giggle. "Ah, she's so wonderful!" Mira said turning to Laxus and me.
"That she is," Laxus and I said at the same time. We looked at each other and grinned.
"Where is my great-granddaughter?" I heard Makarov say as he made way from the bar.
"Right here, gramps," Laxus said picking up Faye and giving her to Makarov.
"She's getting bigger with everyday passing," he said and smiled proudly. I nodded.
"We won't be able to carry her around in the end if she continues to grow like this," I teased.
"My, my, don't go saying this around her," Mira scolded.
"Where is she?" I heard a voice yell.
"Wendy!" I greeted excitedly. She came bouncing up to us.
"Flair, Laxus!" she said with a squeal.
"What's up, shorty?" Laxus asked. I hit him in the back of his head.
"Don't go calling her that," I scolded.
"I am going to be a participant of this year's S-Class exam thanks to you two!" she announced.
"That's great, Wendy," I said.
"Congrats," Laxus said.
Well, together with our training, we included Wendy, and master made me an S-Class almost right after coming back and doing missions for the guild. We helped Wendy to practice her magic and train her body physically at the same time she helped the Thunder God Tribe to babysit if Laxus and I wanted some alone time.
Five years later.
We had just gotten back from an easy mission we had let Faye tag along. She was now six years old, and she had gotten a little brother in the meantime. The guild was watching over Terron as we took a mission in town.
"Mama, will I ever meet grandma, Fae?" Faye asked me suddenly.
"I don't know," I answered turning to her. Noticing we had stopped walking Laxus turned around and came over to us.
"What's going on?" he asked worriedly.
"She was wondering about, Fae," I answered. He looked at me questionably. "My mom," I explained and Faye giggled.
"Really, papa, I thought it was obvious," Faye said and frowned. I started to laugh.
"Ah, Faye, don't worry about him," I said and hugged her, lifting her up. "Come on, let's get back to guild. Your brother is waiting."
"Will Terron like my gift?" she asked with wide eyes.
"He will love it," I answered.
We entered the guild and the hot pink-haired two-year old boy was handed over to Laxus at once.
"Your boy is crazy," Bickslow said, his babies repeating `crazy, crazy´.
"You're calling my boy crazy?" Laxus said with a dark tone.
Freed who was standing beside Bickslow paled and started to shake his head. "No, no, we just mean that he's destructive. Eh, in a good way!" he said nervously.
"He's using his powers on you?" Laxus asked and smirked. The two mages gulped and nodded. "Good boy, Terron," he then said grinning at our boy. I rolled my eyes.
"You're not supposed to encourage him," I said. Faye nodded agreeing with me.
"Fighting with family is bad," she said.
A huge roar was heard outside the guild and we all hurried out to the back. A golden portal was open in the sky, and slowly I saw scales that I recognized at once. Her head and front claws showed first and my eyes widened. I took a step forward seeing my mother after all these years. One step turned into many and soon I was running towards the dragon that started nearing us.
"Mama!" I shouted. The dragon spotted me and I could see her grin upon seeing me. I stopped and started jumping up and down. "I'm here!" I shouted. She landed in front of me.
"Flair," she said and the ground shook a tiny bit under us. The guild members had turned quiet, but soon they were all running towards the dragon with the dragon slayers in lead.
"Where is Igneel?" Natsu asked.
"This is not the time," Fae said looking at all of us. "My, you have grown." She looked at me and brought her snout close. She sniffed me. "You're mated!" she said excitedly.
"Yes, I am," I said and pulled Laxus and our children from the crowd. "This is Laxus, my mate. My first born daughter, Faye and our son, Terron," I said.
"You named your first born after me?" Fae asked her dragon eyes widening. I nodded and gave her a sad smile.
"Why did you leave?"
"That is why I'm here," she answered. A loud cough was heard and Makarov stepped up to us.
"Can you tell us?" he asked.
"There is a poison here in Earth Land that kills off dragons. That is the reason we had to leave. Until it is gone from these lands we cannot really return, even if we want to," Fae said.
"But you could have said goodbye," I muttered. She heard me.
"I wanted to, but it was an urgent calling, and I did not want to endanger you," she explained.
"How can we find this poison?" Makarov asked.
"For now the mages that created it, is keeping residence in Crocus. They are trying to find a way to enter the dragon realm," Fae explained.
"They won't get to you," my daughter said.
"Of course not," Fae answered and let her snout close to her so she could pet her.
"Grandma!" she squealed. Fae chuckled deep in her throat.
"Yes," she answered.
"Then we know where we must go," Gajeel spoke up.
"Team Natsu, Gajeel, Wendy, Laxus and Flair. You will go to Crocus and find these mages and this poison, then destroy it," Makarov said. We nodded.
"Remember, several dragons died of this poison," Fae said and spread her wings. "Until next time," she then said and took off.
"Bye, grandma! Come visit soon!" Faye yelled after the disappearing dragon.
"Hope to see you soon with the other dragons!" I yelled.
We hurried back into the guild so we could leave for Crocus as fast as possible.
12 years later
3rd person POV
"Hurry up, Faye!" Terron yelled as he banged his fists on the bathroom door.
"Just because you want to see Natsumi doesn't mean I have to hurry," Faye answered back.
"And just because you want to see Trahern, doesn't mean you have to use ages in the bathroom!" Terron complained.
"Just because both of you got crushes, doesn't mean either of you need to steal the bathroom," their seven-year old sister Aleiah Elva said, passing the bathroom door with her arms crossed.
"Gee, would have thought when mom and dad made the cottage bigger that they would add another bathroom," Terron muttered.
Faye stepped out of the bathroom with a wide grin. Lightning started to flow around Terron – ready to attack. Faye's fingers were sparkling with purple fairy dust and lightning – ready to answer her brother's attack. They both were interrupted by someone clearing their throat, and by someone, it meant their mother. They froze.
"I see you two are getting along as usual," Flair said and started tapping her foot against the floor. Aleiah stepped up beside her mother with an evil smile. Faye glared daggers at her sister.
"You little traitor! You're supposed to be on my side, seeing as we both are girls," Faye said to her little sister.
"I'm on neither's side," Aleiah answered with a smug smile.
"Enough. Your father will be very disappointed with you if he could see you right now; unfortunately he is the guild master and had to go in early today." Flair sighed. "Now, if either one of you want to go to the guild and meet the dragons later, I suggest you all behave!" Taking Aleiah's hand, she went to the kitchen with her youngest daughter.
"This is your entire fault!" Terron hissed as he closed the bathroom door. Faye scoffed and went into her own room.
Faye entered the guild searching for the iron dragon slayer and script mage, Trahern. She found him sitting close to his parents eating iron as breakfast. She went over to him with a bright smile. "Hello, Trahern!" she said. He looked up at her, and then he looked down at the table. Faye frowned. "Did I do anything wrong?" she asked and looked towards Gajeel and Levy.
"Keep us out of this," Gajeel said and hurried away. Levy got up with an apologetically smile and went to find Lucy.
"Hey, Terron, fight me!" Natsumi yelled as she flung herself towards him. He caught her just in time and they both fell to the floor.
Aleiah shook her head watching her older siblings playing around. "Aren't you going to join them?" her mother asked her. She shook her head and crossed her arms.
"They are being idiots," she muttered.
"Aleiah, just because they got someone they like does not mean they are idiots," Flair explained. "Why don't you go find Mira and she will give you a chocolate milkshake, kay? I have to talk with your father," Flair said. Aleiah nodded and went over to the bar where Mira stood.
"Hello, Aleiah, how are you today?" Mira asked with a smile.
"Fine," Aleiah muttered in response.
A table came flying in her direction, but due to her heightened senses, she threw some fairy dust behind her and it exploded, saving her from impact. Mira's eyes widened. "My, my, your brother and sister started yet another fight," Mira said with a grin.
"Like usual," Aleiah said and focused her attention on the "demon".
"You know, Darcy is supposed to come visit with Annie and Rogue later today," Mira whispered and winked. Aleiah's face darkened.
"So?" she huffed.
"Just thought you wanted to know," Mira answered seeing Aleiah's face redden even more.
"He doesn't matter," Aleiah answered and crossed her arms, face red.
"If you say so…" Mira sang and went on with her business.
Up in the master's office Laxus was sitting in his chair with Flair on his lap. "I have an announcement to make," Flair started. Laxus raised a brow. "We're going to have another one!" she said and grinned. Laxus' eyes widened.
"Again?" he asked surprised. "I thought the older we get the less the chance," he muttered.
"If it helps, Laxus. Wendy told me it's another boy," Flair said and winked. Laxus could not hold back any longer and attacked her lips. Flair giggled in response and kissed him back eagerly.
"Hey, mom…oh, eww! I did so not need to see that!" Faye shouted and closed the door in a hurry. She shuddered and went to the S-Class board – picked up a mission – cleared it with Mira and went over to Trahern. "I cleared it with Mira; she will tell mom and dad, ready to go?" Faye asked. He shrugged and got up from his sitting position.
"Whatever," he muttered.
"Oh, gee, way to be excited," Faye said, her voice filled with sarcasm.
"Faye, take us with you, please," Natsumi said as she dragged Terron after her.
"No," Faye said mainly staring at her brother.
"Yeah, why do we have to go with them?" Terron asked. Natsumi glared daggers at him in response.
"Because, they are S-Class, and until we gain the title ourselves, they're our only chance," Natsumi hissed, fire leaking from her mouth.
"Eh, Natsumi, you're losing fire," Faye commented with a smirk. In return, Natsumi yelped and covered her mouth with wide eyes. Her face reddened.
"Natsumi, are you starting to get a fever?" Terron asked worriedly. Natsumi shook her head frantically and ran over to Lucy – her mother – and dragged her out of the guild. "Gee, what's up with her?" Terron muttered and went over to the bar instead.
The guild doors burst open as Laxus and Flair made their way to the first floor. "We're here!" the twin's voices shouted. Followed by their husbands and children.
"Natsu!" Sting yelled looking for the fire dragon slayer. "Let's fight!"
"You're on!" Natsu answered. Fannie shook her head and mentally face-palmed.
"Oi, keep it down flame-brain!" Gray shouted and stripped at the same time.
"Gray!" Juvia scolded.
"Hey, what about me?" he then asked, following Natsu into his fight with Sting.
"Hey, guys! It's great to see you!" Flair said and went over to the rest of the gang that had just arrived. Rogue gave a small smile excused himself and went to find Gajeel. "Aleiah is by the bar, Darcy," Flair said taking notice of the shadow dragon slayer looking around the guild. He nodded and left.
"It's great to see you Flair!" the twins said in unison, their two daughters rolled their eyes and hurried away before they were captured and forced to play match-maker.
"I see your daughters have grown quite a lot," Flair answered following Kiara and Skaya with her eyes. The twins nodded.
"Great to see you two again," Erza said as she came up to the twins.
"Erza!" they exclaimed.
"You look huge!" Annie said with a grin.
"Again, never would have thought you were going to let Jellal's hands upon you again," Fannie said with a small smile. The girls giggled.
Darcy went up to Aleiah who was staring at her milkshake with a frown. "You know, your face might get stuck like that," he commented.
Aleiah's face reddened as she noticed Darcy taking a seat beside her. On her left side though, her brother was sitting and she could not help but notice that he was wearing a small smirk.
"Heya, Darcy!" Terron said with a wide grin showing off his canines. Darcy waved feeling a tiny bit nervous.
"So, do you want to practice our magic together?" Darcy asked hoping Aleiah would agree. Slowly she nodded and jumped down off of the barstool. "Awesome!" he exclaimed.
"Let's go outside," Aleiah said and was about to take Darcy's hand to drag him after her, she stopped in time and let her hand fall to the side. "Eh, let's go," she said and started to hurry.
As they disappeared through the doors, Terron started to laugh loudly. "What's going on, Terron?" Laxus asked as he sat down beside his son.
"You should have seen Aleiah when Darcy talked to her." He continued to laugh. "Oh my God, her face! It was hilarious!" he explained and continued to laugh. Laxus smiled.
"I see," he mumbled.
"Everyone! May I have your attention?" Flair shouted standing on one of the tables. Aleiah and Darcy came back inside hearing her shout. Laxus and Terron turned in their seats looking at her curiously. "Well, Laxus and I, we're expecting another baby!" she shouted. The guild cheered and Faye who had come back to pick up her backpack that she had left behind froze while bending down. She groaned.
"No, please, not another one!" she complained.
"Gihi, seems like you will get more baby-sitting missions," Trahern said.
"Shut up," Faye mumbled.
"Can we visit the dragons now?!" Natsumi asked excitedly.
Laxus turned to the get the attention of the guild, spotting Faye and Trahern about to leave he sent lightning their way and made them stop in their tracks. "You two better wait until after the visit," he said in a whisper, knowing they would hear him. They groaned and sat down with a huff. Then he raised his voice and said, "Let's go visit our dragon friends!" The guild cheered and they started to exit the guild. Flair came over to him.
"What a crazy bunch of people," she said and grinned.
"You don't need to tell me twice," Laxus answered and picked her up bridal style. She giggled in return.
"Laxus, it looks like Faye and Trahern took Terron and Natsumi with them on their S-Class mission," Freed spoke up making Laxus loose Flair.
"Hey!" she complained. "Pregnant woman here," she muttered and crossed her arms.
"What?" Laxus asked.
"Natsumi and Terron were about to tell you that Faye and Trahern were going to sneak off, but instead they ended up going together," Evergreen said coming up to them.
"Freed, take Ever and Bickslow with you and get them. They can't have gotten far yet. They are meeting with the dragons and that's final," Laxus growled.
Freed nodded, and together with Ever and Bickslow they hurried out of the guild.
"You know, I am part of the tribe too, should I follow?" Flair teased. Laxus shook his head but smiled anyway.
"Let's scare them, shall we?" Laxus asked with a grin.
"Oh, why of course," Flair answered and giggled.
On the train station the four slayers stood about to buy tickets for the next train. Suddenly the Thunder God Tribe appeared right in front of them with crossed arms. They shook their heads and the four slayers swallowed heavily. They had been caught.
Lightning appeared beside the tribe again and there stood Flair and Laxus.
"They forced us to go!" Terron said and went down on his knees, tears in his eyes. Natsumi mimicked him and added sobbing.
"We all know, that's not true," Flair said with a stern voice.
"As punishment you will not be allowed to go on this mission," Laxus started.
"What?" Faye yelled.
"That's not fair!" Trahern added.
"Like I said, as punishment you will not be allowed to go on this mission, alone. The Thunder God Tribe will go with you, after we have visited your grandparents," Laxus continued. Flair nodded.
"Okay!" Terron said. He and Natsumi started to run towards the direction of the woods.
"Fine," Faye and Trahern said at the same time. They looked at each other and blushed. Flair smiled.
Later that evening Flair laid in bed with Laxus. His kisses were full of love and Flair felt like she could explode from all the happiness she felt. Life could only get better.
Crash! "Terron! I'm going to kill you!" Faye's shout was loud and probably rung through the woods. Flair sighed and got out of bed with hands on her hips looking at her mate.
"You better fix this, Laxus. They're yours too!" He could only swallow heavily in answer and nod.
"Catch me if you can!" Terron's voice rung through the house followed by another crash then boom. "Eh, never mind." Flair heard her son say and she started to giggle for herself. What a truly crazy family.
My last question to you!
Would you like me to write a bonus chapter? And if you want that, anyone specific you want to see in it, like Faye and Terron, or Laxus and Flair (how they handle having a child) (or while she is pregnant), or the mission where they get the dragon's to return? Any idea is welcome, or I can do a mix of several stuffs of course (I believe). I would really like to know!
