Chapter 14: Going Home.
The large black dragon flew away into the sun setting sky as the island he once called home was now gone and now was searching for a new island, making a mental note to put up a sign that warned people who landed on the island to not have intercourse on the beach. Filling the void of what used to be the island was sea water, making it like Redfox Island and Fairy Tail's boat was never there. Another minute passed before bubbles began to spring from the spot where Acnologica attacked. The bubbles grew larger and larger until a large bubble made from water, with Fairy Tail's ship and all the members of Fairy Tail inside amerged.
"Never under estimate Juvia of the Great Sea!" Juvia bellowed as she kept her arms up in order to keep the waterbubble going.
Many of those there looked up at the water bubble with awe except for Gajeel who was staring at Juvia with a proud smile. He had to admit it; maybe her hanging with the Stripper wasn't so bad. The reason he thought of that was because Juvia was now even stronger then she was back in their days at Phantom Lord. With the flick of Juvia's wrist, the bubble dispersed and the water returned to the sea.
"Set acourse for Hargeon!" Makarov announced. Nodding, Juvia took a deep breath and made a pushing like movement that looked as if she was practicing Tai Chi. The ship rumbled and then, the current began to push the ship filled with Fairy Tail Mages to the direction of their destination.
Great job Juvia. Levy mentally said to the Water Mage. The Fairy Tail mages surrounded the two rescued mages and asked multiple questions; how did they survive, what did they do for fun and what blossomed their relationship. After the crowd died down, Gajeel (too depressed to remember his motion sickness) began to look out at the spot where Redfox Island once stood. He looked out at the sea, depressed and a few tears prickled in his eyes. He hasn't been this upset since Metalicana died.
"Are you alright Gajeel?" Levy asked as she joined him in looking out at the sea.
"It's really gone." Gajeel whispered sadly "It's all gone." Levy looked at him and noticed his expression, he looked like the most depressed person (or dragon) on the planet; a dragon that lost his treasure.
Levy began to rub her hand across his bare back as he looked out depressed.
"Don't be sad Gajeel." Levy smiled "Redfox Island will live on in our memories. "
"But-" Gajeel interrupted "The moment we step on Fiore soil, we won't be married anymore!"
"Ssshhhhh..." she placed her finger on his lips "Remember what you said on our Wedding Day? 'I don't need a piece of paper to tell me you're my wife.' Therefore, I don't need a piece of paper to tell me you're my husband. I love you Gajeel, and we're husband and wife no matter what." She kissed his forehead as small tears brinked out of his eyes "Just think of us as a King and Queen who just lost their entire country."
A smirk appeared on Gajeel's lips after Levy said those words.
"Thanks Queen Shrimp." Gajeel smiled before kissing her passionately "You always know how to make me feel better. We'll get our country back someday. Now if you'll excuse me, I got something I should've done a long time ago." He got up and rolled his shoulders in stretching fashion and looked at Natsu "SALAMANDER!" he screamed "YOU'RE UNDER ARREST!"
"WHAT?!" Natsu screamed "For what?!"
"For stepping into my country; we have a strict no Salamander policy on our island."
"Damnit! I didn't do shit! UGHHHH BLAAHHH!" Natsu threw up at the side of the boat. The moment Gajeel witnessed this, his motion sickness suddenly kicked in and Gajeel joined Natsu at the side of the boat.
"Oh Lord." Levy sighed. She walked over to her husband and rubbed his back gently as he let his motion sickness kick in.
Nightfall arrived and soon, Hargeon could be spotted in the distance.
"Land ho!" Max screamed. Levy looked up at the beautiful harbor town with a night sky, a smile appeared on her face; they were finally home.
