Chapter 11: Picnic Surprise

Things have been back to normal now everyone is forgiven. Fairy Tail had been training for the Grand Magic Games and try to get stronger and be strong as Sonic knowing he's still the strongest wizard of the guild and the strongest being of Earthland. Sonic had been training too since he had leveled up of his fire form. His forms: Ice Sonic and Volt Sonic had level up to level two just like his fire form. Sonic had been training and practice his newfound abilities from three of his elemental forms. Sonic isn't the only one training with his fighting techniques, Kenny had been training with Sonic also with his fighting style using his staff trained by Sonic and teaching him some new basics and giving him a few pointers.

The duo trained nonstop and plus taking short breaks before resuming to their training. Also Sonic and Kenny even go on jobs to earn cash for food and supplies for the house. Lucy wanted to train with Sonic so she could be close with Sonic but Sonic declined even declined a few female wizards wanted to train with Sonic. They even watched Sonic train in secret and watched him lovingly during his training session. They all had been training for a month now and the Grand Magic Games are weeks away.

Right now, Sonic just finished exercising and practice his new abilities of his three elemental forms that he had leveled up by. And no Sonic is seen sitting at the waterfalls of the forest meditating and is in a deep trance because of the sounds of the waterfalls bringing him a peace of silence. It has been an hour of his meditation and Sonic enjoyed the silence and the sounds of the waterfalls. Sonic finally open his eyes and gets himself up and out of the waterfalls and put his clothes back on and his shoes too.

Before Sonic could leave, he sees his exceed friend and partner Kenny flying to him and approaches him.

"Sonic. How did your meditation go?" Kenny asked.

"Peacefully and perfect. How did your job go with Wendy and Carla and Happy?" Sonic responded asking.

"It went well of course. So are we going to be going on a job today?"

"No not exactly. I'm planning to have a surprise for Erza and I know just the place to do it and to have it."

"Really? Any ideas?"

"Yes I do. That is where you come in."

"What do you want me to do?"

"First of all, I'm going to go back home and get everything set up for Erza's surprise. Second, tell Erza that I have a surprise for her and don't let her come back home. Third, you'll keep an eye on my surprise for Erza and let us have some privacy."

"Ok I can do that. Should I tell Erza right now?"

"Yes. I'm going back home to get setup and make it perfect for my wife."

"Ok I know this is the surprise that Erza will not forget."

Sonic and Kenny then high five and went to their separate ways so Sonic can get everything set up and Kenny went to let Erza know.

Sonic dashes back home to the residence, enters and closes the door and makes his way to the kitchen. He then begin to start cooking and making some treats.

"Oh yeah, time to get things started for my beautiful Titania." Sonic said smiling happily.


Meanwhile…

Team Natsu had return back from their job and hang out in the guild. Erza look around for Sonic.

"Has anyone seen my husband?" Erza asked.

"I don't think so. He went to go train." Lisanna answered.

"Yeah that what told all of us?" Jet added.

"Everyone has been training since the Grand Magic Games is weeks away." Levy reminded.

"We're going to be the strongest guild that everyone is ever seen since we have Sonic our strongest wizard and the hero." Natsu stated.

"That's right, Sonic is going to the roof down with his powers." Gray chuckled making Juvia ogling her crush.

"By the way, Kenny went to go find Sonic before we came back from our job." Wendy informed.

Moments after, Kenny enter inside the guild.

"Kenny. Where is Sonic?" Erza asked.

"Oh he's at home right now." Kenny answered truthfully.

"That's where he is. He must be done with his training so I'll go meet him there."

"Wait don't go Erza."

"Why's that?"

"Because Sonic has a surprise for you."

"Really? A surprise for me?"

"Yeah. That is why he ordered me to tell you don't go home and don't go see him yet. He wanted to make this surprise perfect for you."

"Oh I love surprises. Do you know what he has in store for me?"

"No I do not but he told me that it's very special for you."

"Oh that's romantic. Erza you are so lucky to have Sonic surprising you." Mirajane squealed with joy.

"Yeah and I hope we can see this surprise." Natsu said.

"No way Natsu. This is for Erza only and Sonic wanted to spend some romantic time with Erza in private." Kenny notified.

"Why not. Why can't we see it?"

"If you do and interrupt then you'll face my wrath. Is that clear?" Erza threatened.

"Aye!"

"That's the great Erza for ya." Happy blurted out.

"Oh shut up." Lucy murmured.

Juvia daydreamed of her and Gray in their romantic moment together as Gray have a romantic and special surprise for her.

"Oh Gray. I wish that you have a romantic surprise for me." Juvia daydreamed forming hearts in her eyes.

"Whatever this surprise is, I am certain that Sonic will make it very special." Erza wondered lovingly.


Elsewhere…

Sonic had prepared the floor and the delicious treats and made some juice for Erza and himself. Sonic had left the house with a basket and a picnic blanket and set on to his destination. Sonic found a perfect spot with a beautiful grass and floors and so Sonic then begin to set up everything. First he sets the picnic blanket as the color of the blanket is blue and red. Second, he sets the basket down and sets up the food and the drinks. Third, he takes out his radio that he and Kenny made and put his MP3 player inside it to play some music while they have their moment together.

What's left now Sonic then check if he got everything right and when he glances over to the spot, he smiles and nod his head.

"Now that's done and it looks perfect. Now time to go get Erza." Sonic said.

Sonic sprint off, dashing over back to the guild.


The Fairy Tail Guild…

Everyone in the guild hang out and socialize a bit. Erza sitting with Team Natsu waiting for Sonic to come pick her up. Kenny outside the guild waiting for Sonic's return. Sonic quickly arrive to the guild and sees Kenny.

"Is she in there?" Sonic asked.

"Yep and hasn't left. She was really anxious and wonder what you have in store for her." Kenny responded.

"Cool. I'll take it from here, make sure nothing happens. I sent you the location on your laptop."

"Ok I'll do that."

Kenny activate his wings and head over to the destination sent by Sonic. Sonic enters inside the guild and sees Erza waiting for him so he approaches to his wife.

"Erza." Sonic said.

Erza turn her attentions to Sonic.

"Sonic. Kenny told me you have a surprise for me. Is that true?" Erza asked.

"Of course and before I can take you to your surprise, can you put this blindfold on." Sonic ordered.

Erza nod and Sonic hands over the blindfold to Erza. She then puts it on and Sonic takes her hand in his hand.

"Good. Now let's get going and can you re-quip to your blouse. I don't want you to wear your armor during this surprise so get comfortable for me will you?" Sonic asked.

"Of course I can." Erza obeyed.

Erza re-quip to her blouse and so Sonic and Erza left the guild.

"Man I wonder what this surprise that Sonic got for Erza?" Natsu wondered.

"I know it is special and very romantic." Mirajane said lovingly.

"I think so too. They are married by the way." Wendy agreed.

"I think we should go see this surprise." Natsu said.

"Aye." Happy responded.

"Don't tell me that you guys are going to see this surprise?" Lucy said.

"Yep. No doubt about it." Natsu responded.

"Yep." Happy added.

The dragon slayer and his exceed left the guild and go see this surprise that Sonic has for Erza.

"Oh man Erza is going to be ticked if Natsu tries to do anything funny." Gray said.

"Yeah although… I want to go see this surprise." Lucy responded having second thoughts.

"So what should we do?"

"Let's go see it. Natsu wait up."

Lucy run off after Natsu. Gray shrug his shoulders thinking why not and go with them. Macao and Wakaba shake their heads and smiled.

"Man Sonic and Erza will not going to like this." Wakaba said.

"You said it." Macao agreed.


Meanwhile…

Sonic holding Erza's hand taking her to the destination where he set up everything. Kenny flew by and gave Sonic a thumbs up knowing everything is ok and perfect and head back to the guild. Sonic smiled and continue the destination.

"Sonic, are we're almost there yet?" Erza asked.

"Just about baby." Sonic responded.

The married couple walk to the destination for four minutes and finally reach the destination.

"Ok we're here. You can take off the blindfold now." Sonic informed.

Erza obeyed Sonic taking off her blindfold. After that, just before Erza can ask Sonic what's the surprise, he eyes went wide of shock. There was a picnic set up at the beautiful grass and flowers along with it. It was very beautiful and Erza gasped in shock.

"Sonic. This is a picnic." Erza said in shock.

"Yeah. I heard that you didn't get a chance to have your very first picnic because of some scumbags and ruined your picnic so I thought I take the chance and make it up to make it very special to have your very first picnic. This time no interruptions." Sonic informed smiling.

"Sonic…"

Erza hugged Sonic and kiss him on the lips.

"It's perfect and it's very special. Thank you so much." Erza thanked.

"No problem. Come on, let's enjoy it and have some fun." Sonic suggested.

Erza nod in agreement. They couple take a seat on the picnic blanket and have their picnic together. Kenny watching on before heading back to the guild.

"Now that's very special. Now time for me to leave so Sonic and Erza can have some alone time." Kenny said before flying back to the guild.

Sonic and Erza enjoy their delicious food and treats that Sonic made for Erza and enjoy the strawberry cake made by Sonic. Erza was in joy, loving the moment and the picnic she's having with Sonic. They even share some few laughs and feed each other with strawberries. For the first time, Erza had finally enjoyed her very first picnic with Sonic and glad that there was no any interruptions like the last time. Sonic even had put on some music so it doesn't get quiet.

Out of nowhere, Natsu, Happy, Gray and Lucy spied on Sonic and Erza see them having a picnic together.

"That's Sonic's surprise is a picnic." Natsu said.

"Wow and he had set up everything just for her." Gray added.

"Look at all those delicious food." Happy ogled.

"Yeah and they're having the time of their lives here." Lucy pointed out.


Back to Sonic and Erza…

The married couple enjoy having their romantic picnic together. Erza smiled happily enjoys the picnic with Sonic as it went on for minutes without anyone to interfere or try make any threats. Sonic tries a piece of the strawberry cake that he cook for Erza taking a bite, he then begin smiling with glee and eats another piece.

"This cake is cook. No wonder you love strawberry cake so much." Sonic said taking another bite.

"It is very delicious. Sonic thank you so much for sharing and giving me my very first picnic that I've been wanting to have for so long." Erza thanked.

"No problem. I just want to see you smile and make you happy. Also I want to make up everything for the past seven years when I sacrificed myself and been asleep for so long. I just want to make up everything you know."

"Sonic. Having you that makes me feel happy and I'm glad that you're here and I am so happy that you're here and alive for seven long years. I couldn't ask for a better wish to have you here with me."

"I'm glad that you felt that Erza."

"Sonic, may I be honest with you."

"Sure."

"When you died in that explosion. I cried the entire week mourning about your death and I couldn't bear to move on without you. I went completely insane, I had nothing to live for. I tried so hard to fulfill your request to move on and be strong but I thought about committing suicide to end my life so I can join and see you again."

"Oh man. What made you to stop?"

"Our friends, they stopped me and reasoned with me from killing myself. They helped me to get through my pain and my sorrow for the loss of your life and healed my heart slowly. I never had fallen in love so completely before, my feelings for Jellal had seem to vanish when I kept thinking about you. During the events on Tenrou Island, he spoke to me inside my head when I almost lost my fight with one of the Grimoire Heart wizard members who invaded the S-Class trials."

"I see. My guess is that your friends had gave your strength of not giving up and be strong inside your heart am I right?"

"Correct. That made me move on and be strong for you and I hope that one day I'll see you again."

"That was really special and it touched me. That had made you the young woman like you are right now, strong and motivated."

"I believe so. I remembered that you are the icon of hope and you've given me hope of not given up and to be strong which makes my heart stronger all because of you."

"Thanks. It's good to see you smile and be happy once again especially to everyone I believe. By the way, I did ran into Jellal a month back."

"What? Really?"

"Yeah. Even Ultear and Meredy, they were actually were in Magnolia coming to visit me after I defeated and got rid of the unknown wizard that harm you guys. Also they all wanted to meet me after they heard the news about me being alive and survived the explosion. Jellal ask me to make a promise."

"And what's the promise?"

"He wanted me to promise him to never hurt you and make you sad. He believed me that you'll be happy when I'm with you. I think that's what he told me."

"I see. Jellal still have feelings for me huh?"

"You can say that."

"Sonic. I love Jellal but my feelings for him had fade away. It's you I'm in love with you after the day I met you and how heroic you fought against Darkness and beat Laxus and protect me, the guild and Earthland. I developed feelings for you and kept thinking about you ever since."

"Wow. I'm flattered. I fell in love with you also Erza. Ever since when I saved everyone, I know every girl wants to be with me but to be honest I wouldn't chose them as I chose you. You're my one and wonderful lady and my wife. I would do anything to protect you."

"Sonic…"

Erza scooted towards Sonic. They pressed their foreheads together and soon they begin to share a soft passionate kiss on the lips. Erza place her hand onto Sonic's cheek enjoying the moment of their romantic picnic. Natsu, Happy, Lucy and Gray watched on seeing the two sharing a kiss. Lucy became jealous of Erza for kissing Sonic wishing it was her to be kissing Sonic.

"Erza is so lucky to kiss Sonic. I wish that would be me kissing Sonic's gentle lips." Lucy wished murmuring to herself.

The pair kiss for seven minutes passionately. They finally depart away breaking the kiss looking into each other's eyes lovingly.

"Sonic." Erza said.

"Hmm." Sonic replied.

"This is the amazing picnic I have ever had. Thank you very much."

"No problem."

Before the pair could continue on with their picnic date, but they were interfere by a group of bandits walking to their picnic.

"Hey this is our property so leave lovebirds." The leader demanded.

Sonic and Erza turn their attention to the bandits holding some weapons.

"And who's property exactly?" Sonic questioned.

"It's how… wait you're Sonic the Hedgehog aren't you?" the leader pointed out.

"That's right. I'm Sonic and what you idiots doing is ruining my picnic date with my wife Erza here."

"Oh no. We didn't mean any harm Sonic. We'll leave you two alone."

"Better start running or else I'll change my mind and let Erza come beat you up instead."

"With hesitation, the bandits came running away from Sonic's sight. Sonic shake his head and return to his picnic date.

"I hope that doesn't ruin our picnic date." Sonic hoped.

"Not at all. That went well so let's…"

Erza stopped until she spotted something or someone.

"What's wrong?" Sonic asked.

Erza glared and turn her attention to the spies behind the rock.

"I believe we have spies that are spying our picnic date." Erza noted.

"Who?" Sonic questioned.

Erza didn't answer but she gets up to her feet and rushed over to the rock and pulls out Natsu, Happy, Gray and Lucy in sight shocking Sonic.

"Natsu, Happy, Gray and Lucy! What are you guys doing here?" Sonic asked with curiosity.

"Nothing we were just walking around that's all." Lucy answered hoping that would get Erza to believe her.

"Yeah Lucy's right, we're just enjoying the day that's all I swear." Natsu added.

"He's right." Gray said trying to get Erza to believe their answer.

"But I thought you guys wanted to spy on Sonic and Erza so we can eat their picnic meals." Happy blurted out who cover his mouth knowing he told the truth.

"You little traitor!" Lucy yelled.

"You guys were spying on me and my husband." Erza growled.

"Oh man this doesn't sound good." Sonic said.

Erza begin re-quipping to her armor and glared daggers at them.

"How dare you spy on my very first picnic with my husband! Time to teach your spies a lesson!" Era yelled in rage.

The four gulped in fear and takes off running. Erza brings out her sword with her magic and goes after the spies yelling out at them.

"GET BACK HERE!" Erza yelled.

Sonic watches on and shakes his head. Kenny appear out of the blue and sits next to Sonic.

"Hey Sonic." Kenny greeted.

"Hey buddy. What are you doing here?" Sonic asked.

"I came to say hi and go back to the guild to see how is your picnic date. Hey where's Erza?"

Sonic pointed his finger showing Kenny. He got his answer seeing Erza running after Natsu, Gray, Happy and Lucy screaming in fear.

"What did they do?" Kenny asked.

"They were spying on us while we were having our romantic picnic together. There was some bandits but I scared them off when they recognized me of who I am of course." Sonic responded.

"Wow."

"Hey want something to eat while we watch Erza chasing the four?"

"Sure thing."

Sonic smile and makes Kenny a plate and the both eat their food watching with amusement laughing at them as Erza was furious and the chase went on.

"Man Erza is going to pound them like pancakes." Kenny said.

"You said it pal." Sonic agreed.


Sonic and Kenny laughed as Sonic's wife Erza taking her anger out on Natsu, Gray, Happy and Lucy. Hope they learn their lessons. Thought I would make this chapter to make it special for the married couple. Tune in next time for more Fairy of Darkness 3: Age of Darkness.

P.S: The Grand Magic Games Arc will still be coming soon in three months' time in the later chapters. I want to add a little scenery and some chapters before getting to the arc. Don't worry, the guild will be training for the Grand Magic Games and also I have been watching and catching up a lot of Fairy Tail episodes and almost caught up to the Grand Magic Games Arc.
