Chapter 10 - Aftermath
Watching from afar as the Allied Forces were cheering their victory was the Black Magician Zeref Dragneel, smiling.
"It would seem Dr. Klipse lost. How sad." Zeref commented, in a sarcastic manner.
"But this battle… has provided me some insight." Zeref said.
Zeref turned around and began walking away.
"Soon, we'll meet again in another world, Natsu." Zeref thought.
"Be ready." Zeref thought.

A day later, Lahar and Doranbolt were meeting with Master Org, a member of the Magic Council.
"So it seems Fairy Tail and the other guilds have stopped Black Ghost, I see?" Master Org asked, rubbing his bearded chin a bit.
"Yes, sir. The Custody and Enforcement Unit have arrested all Black Ghost members, including Dr. Klipse and Hargrave after defeat." Lahar replied.
"We also conducted a sweep at their abandoned base and confiscated all their items for lock-up." Doranbolt explained.
"Good, very good." Master Org said.
"Any other news?" Master Org asked.
"None at the moment." Lahar replied.
"It's been too quiet for something bigger." Doranbolt explained.
Master Org nodded.
"It's been almost a few months since Zeref and Acnologia made their appearance in that other world." Master Org explained.
"Surveillance operations have turned little, but they'll keep trying." Lahar explained.
"Tartaros may be out of the picture, but Zeref and Acnologia are still at large." Master Org explained.
"There's also the troubling message Zeref told Fairy Tail and their new allies about." Doranbolt explained.
"*A war between ten worlds will begin soon*." Doranbolt explained.
"By those terms, that doesn't even sound good." Lahar explained.
"Natsu and his team will obviously be the representatives to fight that war." Lahar continued.
"With others from their world together." Lahar finished.
"The most convenient three will be the Straw Hats, Kurosaki's group, and Class E." Doranbolt explained.
"Yes. We may have to put our hopes in that team that fought against Genos and Klipse even though the Council find them unorthodox and reckless." Master Org commented, chuckling after finishing his sentence.
Lahar and Doranbolt laughed sheepishly.

Fairy Tail was become more rowdier than ever, with the guild members celebrating victory against Black Ghost.
Even members of Sabertooth, Lamia Scale, Blue Pegasus, Mermaid Heel and Quattro Cerberus attended to party with the members.
"Everyone… CHEERS!" Makarov shouted, raising his cup of ale.
"CHEERS!" The guild shouted in unison.
Everyone were having fun like crazy without a care in the world.
Natsu was in another brawl with Gray, Gajeel, Sting, Elfman, Macao, Wakaba, Nab, Max, Jet, Droy, Lyon, Olga, and all of Quattro Cerberus, along with several other minor guild members.
"They're at it again." Lucy said, drinking her lemonade.
Sitting with her were Levy and Yukino.
"That's just the way Fairy Tail is." Levy said.
"Yep." Yukino said.
Millianna was hugging all five Exceeds, much to their embarrassment or irritation.
"Such lovely kitties!" Millianna hollered.
"This is ridiculous!" Carla hollered.
Makarov and Gildarts Clive were having a drink of their own.
"Feels nice celebrating doesn't it?" Gildarts asked.
Makarov nodded.
"These kids make us old men proud." Makarov commented.
"Got that right." Gildarts said.
"Says the man who has daughter issues." Makarov said, in a teasing manner.
Gildarts sulked a bit.
Cana overheard as she was drinking against Bacchus (who left the fight) and gave a snicker.
Yukio noticed something amiss.
"Hey, have anyone seen Rogue-sama and Kagura-sama?" Yukino asked.
"Beats me." Lucy replied.
Erza and Mirajane suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"They must be somewhere private!" Erza and Mirajane hollered in unison.
"Where'd you two come from?!" Lucy exclaimed.

Outside in the side, Rogue was talking with Kagura.
Kagura raised an eyebrow.
"You liked me since the Grand Magic Games?" Kagura asked.
"Since this year's games. But I was too shy to admit it myself." Rogue replied, blushing and awkwardly scratching the back of his head.
"It would also add to Sting's teasing of you." Kagura commented.
Rogue deadpanned.
"Of course." Rogue thought.
"To be fair, I kinda find you good looking despite being a little younger than me." Kagura commented.
Rogue was surprised.
"R-Really?" Rogue asked.
Kagura giggled and walked over, taking Rogue's hand.
"That time against Black Ghost really helped us open our hearts to each other." Kagura explained.
Rogue smiled.
Both closed their eyes and leaned in for a kiss, which was three seconds until…
"Kissy, kissy!" Sting, Erza and Mirajane hollered in unison.
Rogue and Kagura released their kiss quickly upon seeing Sting, Erza and Mirajane watching from the corner.
"I'm so happy for my little sis!" Erza hollered.
"You go, tiger!" Rogue hollered.
"Another ship sailed!" Mirajane hollered.
"What the hell!?" Rogue and Kagura exclaimed in unison.

Back in the guild, the comical fighting continued, which started to become a little concerning.
Romeo, Wendy and Chelia were sitting near Lisanna and the Thunder God Tribe.
"You guys seem to be getting along just fine." Romeo commented.
"Well, Lisanna and Bickslow were going out a month ago since the games and we didn't seem a reason to stop that." Evergreen explained.
"That's adorable!" Chelia hollered.
"Isn't that the same with you and Elfman~?" Bickslow asked, in a teasing manner.
"Shut up!" Evergreen hollered, blushing furiously.
"Really? You and Elfman-san are dating?" Wendy asked.
"H-Hey!" Evergreen replied.
Freed smirked.
"Apple doesn't fall far from the tree." Freed commented.
"Like you're one to talk!" Bickslow and Evergreen hollered in unison.
Romeo and Wendy chuckled.
"But the most love is Wendy-chan and Romeo-kun!" Chelia hollered.
Wendy and Romeo blushed furiously.
Loud screams were heard, seeing Kagura and Rogue continuing to chase Sting, Erza and Mirajane, escalating the fighting cloud further, which soon enough became a madhouse.
Gildarts laughed at the sight, while Makarov sulked.
"Why can't these kids party normally?" Makarov thought.

It was soon enough midnight, everyone from the other guilds went back to their guildhalls, or members of Fairy Tail taking the night off.
Lucy was walking with Plue to her apartment, walking on the stones near the water.
"Boy… that was very hectic with that party, huh Plue?" Lucy asked.
Plue performed a gesture.
"Be careful, Lucy-san!" A voice hollered.
"I know!" Lucy hollered.
Lucy made was now at the front door to her apartment.
"Ready for bed?" Lucy asked.
Plue nodded.
Lucy stopped for a moment.
"I know *those two* are in here…" Lucy thought, thinking about what's obviously gonna happen.
Lucy began opening the door.
"If they break anything, I swear- " Lucy explained.
As soon as the door opened, Lucy saw not only Natsu and Happy, but also to her shock the rest of Team Natsu brandishing their Anti-Sensei weapons.
"The whole team?!" Lucy exclaimed.
"Oh hey, Luce!" Natsu hollered.
- Lucy Kick! – Lucy shouted.
Lucy kicked Natsu, Happy, Gray and Gajeel in the heads, leaving four big bumps.
"OW!" Natsu, Happy and Gray hollered in unison.
"What are you all doing in my house?!" Lucy asked, in an angry manner.
"Well, Lu-chan… how should I put this?" Levy asked.
"I organized this team meeting at your house. Fitting it should be a temporary Class E strategy spot in case Korosensei comes here." Erza explained.
"Korosensei? I thought he's at Nagisa's world." Lucy explained.
"He still is. We're just preparing for when we might run into him someday." Romeo explained.
"I'm also making a picture album of our times with them and everyone else we met." Wendy explained.
"I wholeheartedly agree." Carla said.
"Does it hurt, Gray-sama?" Juvia asked, bandaging Gray's wound.
Gray mumbled.
"Jeez… Bunny Girl's kicks are no joke." Gajeel commented, rubbing his right cheek bright red.
"Besides, we need to be ready when you-know-what might happen." Lily explained.
Lucy was now confused.
Erza sighed.
"He means when Zeref plans to drag us to another scheme of his." Erza explained.
"Did you have to bring that up?" Lucy asked.
"It was my idea, honey. We can't afford to let our guard down." Natsu explained.
"Natsu's right. That guy Klipse was working for Zeref." Happy explained.
"Oh…" Lucy said.
"But don't worry. We've been through worse before." Natsu explained.
"Cheer up, guys! Nothing's gonna stop Fairy Tail!" Natsu hollered.
"Aye, sir!" Happy hollered.
The other members of Team Natsu nodded with smiles on their faces.
Lucy blushed and smiled, gripping Natsu's hand with her own.
"I know we'll pull though." Lucy said.
The two lovers started at each other's eyes for a moment and smiled.
"Now let's play a game!" Natsu hollered.
"Right now?!" Lucy exclaimed.

Outside Lucy's apartment, lots of loud noises were heard.
Mavis was sitting on the roof, enjoying the moonlight sky with a smile.
"We're all in this together." Mavis thought.
It's the end of another chapter, but Fairy Tail's adventures are eternal as time.
