Chapter 11:How They Met

"Hey Jelly, I mean, Jellal."

"What are you doing here, Ultear?" Jellal asked.

"Well . . . if you want me to explain myself from the time of you leaving then how about we talk later, okay?"

"Okay," Jellal answered.

"That away you can also help me with my homework, since I just got here."

"Alright then."

"Good."

Ultear and Jellal sat at the Fernandez's kitchen table, getting to know each other once again.

"So are you going to explain now?"

"Yup, I just don't know where to start..."

"Start after I left."

"Well...okay."

"You see," Ultear began, "After you left I stayed at the same school, and stayed single for about six months."

"After that what happened?" Jellal wondered.

"Then I started dating Herbie."

"Wait, Herbie?"

"Yup, then after about a year we broke up and I started dating this guy named Charlie," explained Ultear.

"Charlie?"

"Yup, then after three months we broke up and then I started to date this other guy named-"

"Ultear," Jellal interrupted, "I don't want to hear about all the guys you dated, just the important stuff."

"This is the important stuff."

"Ultear..."

"Okay Jellal, okay."

"Now tell me," Jellal demanded .

"So when I was about fourteen, my family decided to go traveling."

"Traveling?"

"Yeah, that's kind of what their jobs are now. Anyway, we went to Mexico, Australia, Japan, even England."

"Sounds interesting."

"Oh, it was Jelly, it was."

"Then your family decided to come back?"

"Yup."

"Sounds like you've had a really cool life," Jellal surmised.

"I have, Jelly, I really have but..."

"But what?" questioned Jellal.

"During all that time traveling, I spent most of it thinking of you."

"You have?"

"Yes Jelly, I have."

"Wow."

"Yes Jelly, wow."

"I'm glad you're here Jellal-," said Makarov.

Jellal stood there, saluting Makarov, wearing a blue shirt, dark blue pants, and not wearing any sunglasses...yet.

"What is the problem, Makarov sir?" he asked.

"At ease," said Makarov, "Someone have kidnapped one of our fellow operatives."

"Do we know who it is?"

"Negative. We need you to find that out and retrieve him."

"Why me sir?" questioned Jellal-, "I haven't been in Fairy Tail for even a year yet?"

"Because I know I can trust you

Jellal- glanced at the reflection of his head in a mirror behind Makarov a bit longingly.

"Yes sir, Makarov sir!" Jellal- saluted.

"At ease and good luck," Makarov replied.

"Thank you, sir."

Jellal- exited Makarov's office and headed for his cr.

"You think you can handle a lone wolf mission?" a familiar voice asked.

Jellal- whipped his head back and saw Juvia.

"Makarov seems to think so."

"Well just be careful, okay?"

"Okay, and thanks Juvia."

"No problem."

Jellal- fled towards his ship, making his way to the Delightful Children From Down the Lane's mansion.

"Good luck," Juvia whispered under her breath.

Jellal- reached his target and quickly hid behind a huge bush.

"I must find a way inside, but how?" he said to himself.

The door to the mansion opened all of a sudden as Jellal- ducked lower then he has ever had to.

"Funny, thought we heard a bunch of rustling out here, oh well," said the Grimmoire Heart's Meredy.

They slowly entered their house once again, but accidentally left the door wide open.

"Well, that was easy."

Jellal- slipped into the mansion and tried to search for the kidnapped operative.

"Where could she be?"

"Maybe you should try looking in the jail."

"Hey thank-"

Jellal- shot his head back to see Meredy and _ behind him.

"Jellal Fernadanes, how did you get in here?" she asked

"I used the front door."

"Meredy, did you leave the front door open AGAIN? !" _yelled, "No matter. Now why are you here Jellal Fernadanes? !"

"You know why!" he cried.

"Oh yes, the operative. They're already getting her ready as we speak," _replied.

"Ready for what?"

"To join us of course," _ all said

"Oh yeah?"

"Yes, because we're smarter and not as naïve as you stupid brats!"

Jellal- hastily jumped over Meredy and _and pulled out his gun.

"Who's stupid now?" Jellal- asked.

"Still you," they said in unison.

Suddenly, a giant robot appeared and began trying to crush Jellal- with its feet, but he quickly lept out of the way.

"Nice try dopes!"

Jellal- ran as fast as he could to get out of the way, but the robot keeps chasing him.

"You can't beat us, Jellal, we're faster, stronger, and better than you!"

"Oh yeah?" Jellal- spoke to himself.

Jellal- turned around, facing them and started firing at the ceiling, making it crashes on top of them.

"No our robot!" they screamed.

Jellal- ran swiftly away from them and looked all around for the cell where the operative was being kept.

"Here we are," he announced proudly.

Jellal- snatched the keys from the corner and opened the cell that had the operative inside.

"Are you alright?" Jellal- wondered.

"I think so, thanks," she replied.

You could tell that the girl had been crying, because her eyes were wet and puffy. She gave him a slight smile as he returned with one.

"You're welcome," He replied.

"Who are you?" she wondered.

"Jellal Fernadez-...or you can just call me Jellal."

"I'm Erza."

"Hi," he said softly.

"Hi," she replied even more softly.

"We had better get out of here."

"Not so fast Jellal!" cried _, right behind them.

They were holding Jellal-'s gun that he accidentally dropped.

"What are you going to do now?" she mocked.

"This!" cried Erza, kicking the gun out of her hands.

She then kicked them right into the wall as she instantly went unconscious.

"Nice," said Jellal, really impressed, "Where'd you learn to do that?"

Erza blushed a little bit, "Kung fu classes."

"Well we had better get out of here before she wake up," Jellal said walking away.

"Right behind you," agreed Erza.
