It's been 1 month since me and Igneel became couple and the people around us has gotten used to it. The first week everyone was bugging us about, which was both embarrassing and annoying. There were a lot of reactions to it. Lucy said something like "I knew this would happen" which I blushed when I heard of course. Well, everyone seemed happy for our sake. Of course, it wasn't me and Igneel who informed everyone about our relationship. No, it was Mirajane. Well, after they had woken me and Igneel that day Mira ran to the guild and told everyone about it. Embarrassing... I'm used to it now though.
"Mel? Are you coming, or what?" I heard a very familiar voice who brought me back to reality. I blinked a several times and saw Igneel stand in front of me with a wrinkled forehead. I quickly nodded.
"I'm coming" I answered him and took his hand who he was reaching out towards me. Igneel grinned at me.
"Great! Let's go then" He said. "The rest of them are waiting at the train station so let's hurry"
"'Kay" I said as the two of us started to run towards the train station.
Xxx
You probably wondered what we were going to do and I can inform you that we were going out on a regular mission. We were going to take down some bandits. Their leader was supposed be very dangerous, 'cause the rumors says he can send people back in time. That's a really scary ability, if you ask me.
"What are you thinking about, Mel?" Little Taps voice interrupted my thoughts.
"Nothing special" I said as I looked out through the train window.
"Why... do we... always.. ride.. trains?!" Igneel asked form his seat next to me.
"'cause that takes shortest time" Zafrine explained.
"I.. hate.. trains" Igneel muttered.
"We're there soon" I said to comfort him at least a little bit.
"Exactly, flame brain!" A for the moment stripped Devin said. "Don't complain so much"
"Shut.. up.. stripper" Igneel mumbled. Devin was just about to answer when Layla interrupted him.
"Dev, put on some clothes" She said with a sigh and glare at her stripping boyfriend.
"What? I have my clo- I'll be back in a minute" With that Devin left his seat to go search for his clothes that so miraculously disappeared. I giggled low as I once agin turned my head towards the window as we came closer and closer to our destination.
Xxx
"I'll never ride train again!" This was the first thing Igneel said – or to be more precis – yelled – as we got out from the train. Devin came and hit him in the head.
"We have to take the train back to, smart ass" He said.
"You want a fight?" Igneel said as he started to glare at Devin.
"You bet!" Devin replied.
"Boys" Zafrine came between the guys and glared at the both of them. "Don't fight"
"H-hai" Both of the guys mumbled. I giggled low as our little group was walking towards the mission.
Xxx
"Where's the leader?" Igneel yelled to the other of us after we beat everybody – except for the leader though.
"How should we know?" Layla said with a sigh. "Maybe we should have asked somebody instead of beating all of the guys"
"Try to use your brain a little, pig!" Devin said as he threw a guy on the floor. Layla turned to him.
"You shouldn't say anything, 'cause you've been doing the exactly same thing as him" Layla said and turned away from him. "And put on some clothes"
"Huh? I don't know what you're talking about, I have my clo- I'll be back in a minute" With that Devin left once again to search for his lost clothes. I giggled. Right then, I felt someone – or something – grab. A hand came over my mouth so I couldn't say anything. Luckily, Igneel noticed it and grabbed my hand to try to drag me back but it was too late. Both me and Igneel disappeared from the room
"Damn it, I just wanted the girl" I heard a low voice as I looked around in this mysterious room. I still held Igneel hand and squeezed it.
"Who are you? Show yourself!" Igneel demanded as the two of us stood us. The voice chuckled.
"What a brave one" The voice said. "My name is Crawe"
"The leader" I whispered.
"That's correct, Melody" Crawe said. "Well, aren't you smart"
"How do you know Mel?" Igneel said angrily.
"Let's say we're old friends" Crawe said and laughed. I wrinkled my forehead. That wasn't true, right?
"You're lying" I said.
"I am?" Crawe said and chuckled again. "Well, you'll see know" I heard Crawe clap his hands twice. "I'll be nice and let your friend come with you. Let's see what was it again? Right, 20 years back in time!" I gasped. "I'll see you two later then" Crawe clapped his hands once again and the world around us started to disappear.
"Wait, what the hell is happening?!" Igneel said and looked around as a new world was starting to forming.
"I have no idea!" I answered him. Right after I had answered him, the world went black in front of us.
Xxx
"Hello? Are you two okay?" I heard a voice that sounded familiar in some ways and in some ways not. I slowly opened my eyes. I was surprised to see Lucy stand over me with Natsu and Happy around her. They looked different, younger. As I quickly sat up Igneel woke up and he wrinkled his forehead.
"Huh? Mo- ouch! Mel, why did you do that for" I hit him and he looked at me with a confused gaze. I pretend I didn't notice that.
"May I ask what year this is?" I asked and fought hard not to tremble. Lucy smiled at me.
"Well, of course. This is the year X800" Lucy answered me. I gasped. Me and Igneel had been sent 20 years back in time!
"That's a weird question" Natsu said and grinned at us.
"Aye!" Happy said.
"Sorry, I had forgotten" I excused myself as I stood up. Igneel followed my example. Right then, Igneel stomach growled.
"Ops.. I'm a bit hungry, I guess" Igneel said and laughed.
"Understand the feeling, man" Natsu said and grinned. "Why don't you come eat at our guild? It's named Fairy tail. You seem like nice guys" Igneel and I looked at each other. It couldn't hurt anybody, right?
"Sure" Igneel answered Natsu's question.
"Great, let's go then! We'll show you the way" Natsu said and started to walk towards the guild.
"Yeah, just follow us" Lucy said and smiled at us.
"Aye!" Happy said as he flew after Natsu. As we started to follow them I whispered this in Igneels ear:
"Whatever you do, don't take of your jacket, we can't let them see that we're in Fairy tail" Igneel nodded.
"Okay" He said and grabbed my hand and walked a little faster to walk together with his younger mom and dad.
Xxx
"Oi, flame head, who's these two?" I heard a familiar voice just as we had entered the guild. My first instinct was that it was Devin but as I looked up I saw that it was his dad – Gray Fullbuster – in a younger version. It looked like Igneel also thought that. He was just about to say something as Natsu interrupted that.
"Shut up, ice bastard!" He said – or almost yelled. "They we're just hungry, so I invited them here!"
"You don't have to invite people here, smart ass! They can come as they want to!" Gray said with a sigh.
"Wanna' fight, underwear prince?!" Natsu yelled.
"Bring it, you fat pig!" Gray said and both of them entered atack posirion.
"Boys" I heard a cold voice from behind. It sounded a bit like Zafrine, so I turned around to see a red haired women. Erza Scarlet. "Don't fight" Natsu and Gray started to tremble.
"H-hai" They both said. I couldn't help but start to laugh madly.
"What's with you?" Lucy asked me. I just continued to laugh but tried to answer her either way.
"Sorry.. hahah.. you just ...hahha.. remind me of ..haha.. someone I ...hahah know" I said and with that I looked at Igneel who was pretending to see something interesting a bit away.
"Weren't we here to eat? Shouldn't we do that then, Mel?" He said.
"Sure, Igneel" I said as I had finally stopped laughing.
"Igneel? Did you just say Igneel?" I heard Natsus familiar voice. He looked at us with a surprised gaze. I realized that I said something I shouldn't really have said. I swallowed.
"Um.. yes, I did" I mumbled. My mistake can't get us caught!
"Your name is Igneel..?" Natsu said and looked at Igneel with a wrinkled forehead. Igneel nodded slowly.
"Yeah" He said.
"How cool!" This was what Natsu said. Not the reaction I was expecting. "My father's named Igneel too!"
"You can't be.." Lucy said. Oh no, she figured it out! "You can't be the Edolas version of him?" This also surprised me. Wasn't Lucy the intelligent one? Anyways, Igneel shook his head.
"I'm not, but can't you show me were the food is now?" Igneel asked.
"Ah.. Okay" Natsu said. He seemed a bit depressed about this. "Follow me, you two"
Xxx
"Huh? Natsu, who's these two?" I heard a familiar voice that I almost directly recognized as Mirajanes. As I was looking up I saw the white haired take over mage. She looked the same as mine and Igneels time.
"This is Igneel and.. you haven't introduced yourself, have you?" Natsu said and he and Mira looked at me.
"Melody, my name is Melody" I answered his question.
"Okay, so this is Igneel and Merody" Natsu ended his sentence.
"Um.. it's Melody, not Merody" I explained. Igneel chuckled and I turned towards him. "What are you laughing about?"
"Nothing special, it's just that you, dad makes the same mistake as I did" Igneel said and grinned towards me.
"Huh? You just called me 'dad'?" Natsu asked as he wrinkled his forehead. Igneel didn't even realize that he just called Natsu dad. Both of us quickly shook our heads.
"No, no, I didn't" Igneel said quickly. I prayed that Natsu was as dense as his son.
"Okay, I heard wrong, I guess" Natsu said and grinned at the two of us. I let out a nervous little laugh.
"Well, Igneel and Melody what would you like to eat?" Mirajane asked us.
"Can I get some sort of cheese sandwich?" I asked.
"Sure, and you?" Mirajane said as she turned to Igneel.
"Fire meat!" Igneel said directly.
"You're a fire mage?" Natsu asked.
"Kind of" Igneel answered as I hit him in the side.
"I'm coming with your food as soon as it's done. You can sit down for the moment" Mirajane said and we nodded.
"So where are the two of you from and why were you lying on the street?" Lucy asked us as she joined our little group.
"I'm from Magnolia" Igneel said.
"You are? I haven't seen you here before" Lucy said and wrinkled her forehead.
"Well, it's big city" Igneel said and grinned. Lucy scratched her forehead.
"Do you know what I think? I think that you" Lucy pointed at Igneel as she said this. "And you" With that she pointed at Natsu. "Really look alike. Well, you've got different eye and hair color though. It's almost as you're related!"
"Tha-that doesn't seem ri-right" I said and laughed nervously.
"Must be a coincidence" Igneel said quickly.
"Hm? We look alike?" Natsu said and observed Igneel closely, which didn't seem to be appreciated by his future son. "You're right, Luce, we actually do
"How funny" Igneel said and laughed. I nodded.
"Yeah, re-really funny" I said nervously.
"How come you're so nervous, Merody?" Natsu asked me.
"N-no reason" I said quickly and pretended to see something interesting on the street outside. Unfortunately I did see something interesting. I couldn't help but gasp.
"Do you see what I see, igneel?" I whispered. Igneel nodded.
"That's impossible, right?" He whispered back.
"Apparently not" I whispered. On the street I had seen a copy of myself!
Xxx
Nice ending, right? At least I HOPE you think so ;)
Anyways, I think I've got an idea to my Christmas story. I thought about before I was going to sleep and I think it will turn out good ^^
So for the moment I don't what will come first – the Christmas story or What could go wrong?
My life on the sea gets to wait a little more time, and I'm sorry for that
Well, there's really nothing more I would like to take up here today so I'll just say my usual end phrase: I hope you enjoyed reading this chapter of Fairy girl Melody :D
