This chapter is the result of being sick, lying on the couch being drugged on medicine and watching romantic movies that I had no idea why I was even watching. This is simply a chapter of my own creation. It's nothing much, just the result of three romance movies. I don't even know why I wrote this... cheesy I guess... oh well, hope you like it.

Alex: Well glad you liked it. And of course Natsu would take such an opportunity to mess with his friends, like he did with Erza, tickling her feet when she was paralyzed. And no worries with the Final Fantasy, I don't hate you for not playing them. You don't have to play them to be a fan. I haven't played all of them, just some I really wanted to test out, but I still love most of them.

Guest1: That's actually not a bad idea. I'll look into that and maybe you'll find a chapter about the teddy soon. But until then enjoy another chapter from this story!

Guest2: Here you go! Hope you didn't die waiting :D


Two days after the Edolas incident, everyone was in the guild celebrating for several reasons. The first reason was the return of Magnolia and all its inhabitants. The second reason was the return of Lisanna. They were all glad seeing that Lisanna was back and alive. The whole guild was celebrating for anything.

Gajeel grinned as he glanced at Natsu. "My cat is stronger than yours!"

Natsu gritted his teeth as he glared at him. "No way! Happy is way stronger!"

"That blue cat can't do anything right."

"Well… yours stinks!"

"Says the one whose cat smells like fish!"

"Well Happy is still stronger!"

A loud thud was heard and the two Dragon Slayers turned around only for their eyes to go wide. Archangel was standing there in her normal form standing tall with her sword in hand and Pantherlily on the ground back to his normal form as well. Happy was on the ground unconscious as well.

Archangel smirked at the two Dragon Slayers as she twirled her sword. "I hope that answers your question boys."

Gajeel had his mouth wide open. "NO WAY THAT RUNT'S CAT IS THE STRONGEST!" He shouted through the whole guild.

At the other end of the room Wendy was healing Kera's injury again. Her hands were glowing again as she held them above her left eye. After she was done she retracted her hands. "Can you see anything out of your left eye yet?"

Sighing Kera shook her head. "No, it's still… blurry."

Wendy nodded as she helped her put her bandage back on. "I'm sorry Kera, but it's going to need some more time. I'll heal it again tonight but there is nothing else I can do."

"It's fine Wendy. I really appreciate what you have already done. If it weren't for you my face would have been ruined and I couldn't be able to see at all. I just have to hope it will be gone when I meet Hibiki next week."

Wendy smiled. "It probably will. A week is still a long time."

"Did I hear you have a date?" Mirajane asked with a huge smile as she gave the two girls each their drinks. Kera thanked her for her hot cocoa but shook her head at her question. "I don't have a date… just Hibiki is coming next week for a visit and we haven't seen each other since that whole Nirvana incident. I know that no time really has gone while we were in Edolas, but still… I kind of miss him."

"Someone's in loooovve!" Happy called from the far room. He quickly dove for protection but nothing came. Glancing up the cat saw that Kera was still in the same spot as before.

Lucy noticed this as well and frowned. Slamming her head to the ground she muttered. "Can't believe Kera got a boyfriend before I did."

"Ah, don't worry Luce. Your guy is out there somewhere." Gray stated as he poked at his food.

"Hey Lucy." Kera said as she walked over to them. She wanted to sit down but tripped slightly. Luckily she caught herself and was able to keep her cocoa in her cup. "Who, that was close."

"You okay?" She asked her and Kera nodded. "Yea, still can't see anything out of my left side." She said with a smile as she waved her hand in front of her left eye. Lucy and Gray chuckled slightly.

Gray smiled. "So, how you hanging there?" He asked.

Kera shrugged slightly. "Well, I'm still trying to get used to not seeing anything on my left side. On the other hand I'm getting free pity food from Mirajane and free cocoa!" She grinned.

"That's one way on doing it." Gray shrugged simply.

"Hey Kera." Lucy started. The brunette glanced at her a little confused. "Um, you are still living in my apartment with me right?"

Kera started shushing her but Gray caught it still. "Wait… I thought you found a place to live."

She shook her head slightly. "Not… quite…" She tried to avoid it but Gray looked serious. "What happened Kera?"

The brunette sighed as played with her fingers. "I… may… or may not have gotten kicked out…"

"You what!?" He shouted but Kera shushed him quickly. She covered his mouth with her hand silencing him. "Be quiet you idiot! Nobody knows except for Lucy!"

Gray frowned as he sat back down. "Why didn't you tell us? For how long has this been going on?"

"Ever since the incident with Laxus. The owner saw what I can do and kicked me out. Then I lived in the woods for a week before Lucy offered to let me move back into her place. For the reason not telling anyone is because I didn't want to worry anyone. I already caused you guys to worry a lot before."

Gray shook his head. "Kera! You know that's just full of it! We would never think you're annoying! If you have a problem then tell us. We're here to help you know."

Kera smiled slightly and lowered her head. "Alright, the next time I'll tell you guys. But this time… please don't tell Erza."

Gray and Lucy glanced at each other before nodding their heads. "Fine, but remember, the next time tell us."

Kera grinned at him and nodded. "Thank you Gray. I owe you one." With that she got up and turned left, but hit somebody crashing to the ground. "Damn it!" She shouted.

"Oh Kera, be careful when you go left. You could crash into someone…" Mira stated walking over to her and helping her up. The brunette sighed scratching her head. "I know. Who did I crash into anyway?" She asked wondering who the person was.

Turning around and glancing at the person on the ground she almost shrieked. "Hide me!" She yelled jumping under the table to hide herself.

The person who Kera crashed into was actually Hibiki. He scratched his head as he got back to his feet. "Ow… who did I crash into?" He muttered glancing around, not seeing Kera under the table.

Mira smiled at him. "Oh, Natsu just jumped up wanting to get into the fight back outside." She told him.

Hibiki glanced at her a little confused. "Okay… um Mira… have you seen Kera? I wanted to surprise her by coming here."

The white haired woman chuckled. "Oh don't worry. She's somewhere in here. Maybe even closer than you think." She winked at him before going back to the bar going on with her work.

The boy was still confused as to what she was saying and therefore glanced at both Gray and Lucy. "Have you guys seen Kera?"

"She's probably just day dream… ow!" Gray yelled as Kera slammed her fist into his knee. Lucy laughed waving her hand in front of her. "What Gray is trying to say is, Kera is probably still sleeping. She's been doing a lot of jobs lately."

"Oh… well… if you see her, tell me okay? I really want to surprise her with something." Hibiki said giving Lucy a cute smile.

The blonde slightly melted with that smile. Gray just rolled his eyes. "Yea, whatever." He said waving his hand in the air.

Hibiki nodded and left the guild. Kera slowly came out from under the table. "Is he gone?" He asked.

Lucy nodded helping her from under the table. "Yea he's gone. Why did you do that Kera? That wasn't really nice."

Gray nodded. "Yea! Punching me in the knee, what the hell where you thinking?"

Kera gave him a death glare. "You do not tell a boy you were day dreaming about him. Are you crazy!? Anyways, I didn't want him to see me because I look like a mummy! I look ugly!"

"That's not true!" Lucy told her while grabbing her hands. "You have an injury. That's fine. Everyone gets injured in their life."

Kera gave her a blank look. "Yea, tell me when you find someone who got their face burnt… twice… then we can talk." She told her simply.

"It is not a shame to have a scar." A voice called out. She turned around and saw Archangel standing there, back in her small form. She had her arms crossed as she glanced at her friend. "Like I said. It is not a shame."

"Well you don't have half of your face burnt off and can't see out of one eye." Kera told the white Exceed while crossing her arms. Shaking her head she walked away. "Well I'm going into the city. If you need anything from me. Don't bother…"

Lucy, Gray and Archangel watched as Kera left the guild. Lucy sighed. "Someone should go after her."

Quickly both Lucy and Gray's look looked at the white Exceed. The cat rolled her eyes. "Fine, I will go. But only because I want to."

"Sure, sure, you still owe us for everything you have done." Lucy stated giving the white Exceed a glare.

Archangel lowered her head. "That… is true. Very well, I will go after her." The Exceed jumped down from the table and walked out of the guild after the brunette who was probably going to crash into half of the people. Since she can't see out of her left eye and half of her vision is limited. Well, this will be fun.


Kera walked down the market trying to stop bumping into several people along the way. It was difficult since half of her face was covered in bandages. She got strange looks from several people and it was slowly annoying her

But what was the most annoying

Was the Exceed following her

"Archangel, why do you keep on following me? I thought you had more in common with Pantherlily or something." Kera stated as she dodged another person.

The white cat shrugged simply as she followed her. "Well, Pantherlily spends a lot of his time with that Iron Dragon Slayer… what was his name again…"

"Gajeel." Kera stated simply and Archangel nodded. "Yes, well, he stated that he was his cat now and the two of them spend a lot of time together. The same as with the blue cat and Natsu and Carla with little Wendy."

Kera gave the white Exceed a strange glance. "Where are you going with this?"

Archangel jumped up opening her wings and flying beside Kera. "I thought maybe… that the two of us could… you know…" The Exceed wasn't quite sure what to say, but Kera got what she meant.

And therefore she had an evil grin on her face. "Are you saying you want to be my cat?"

"I belong to no one." Archangel stated crossing her arms. "I am just saying that I will accompany you on your journeys."

Kera smiled at her, stopping at a magazines store. "Sure you can Archangel. I thought you wouldn't want to be close to me… since you know… what happened in Edolas and with my counterpart."

Archangel smiled as well. "To say the truth. You and her are very similar. Before she gained her goal for revenge she was the exact same person as you are now. Maybe shy here and there, but I believe you are the same there as well."

"I am not shy!" Kera stated simply.

"Kera!"

Her eyes went wide as she heard that voice. Looking around she saw Hibiki walking over to her. "Oh no, no, no, no, no." Quickly she grabbed a magazine, which happened to be the Sorcerer Weekly magazine where she, Erza and Lucy were on the cover.

Archangel smirked slightly as she glanced at Kera. "No, not at all."

"Kera!" Hibiki called out with a smile as he walked over to her. "There you are, I've been looking all over for you!"

Moving the magazine around so only her right side of the face was seen she smiled. "Oh Hibiki! I didn't see you there at all! What are you doing here? I thought we had a date next week!"

Hibiki smiled. "Well, I thought I should come and give you a surprise visit. I also have a small surprise for you as a gift."

Kera smiled slightly. "Oh really?"

Hibiki nodded. He glanced at the white cat and frowned. "Who is this?"

Archangel straightened up. "I am Archangel! Personal bodyguard of Queen Kera and her…"

"Archangel… Earthland, remember."

"Oh right…" The white Exceed remembered that they weren't in Edolas anymore and this was not the same person as before. Clearing her throat she glanced at Hibiki again. "My apologies, I am Archangel, a dear friend of Kera."

Hibiki smiled. "Well that's great to hear! If you want Archangel can come tonight as well."

"Sure!" Kera stated with a smile while still hiding half of her face behind the magazine.


Four hours later and Kera was sitting at a beautiful restaurant with Archangel beside her. Kera shook her head as she glanced around. "I shouldn't be here Archangel. My face is still not healed yet and I don't want him to see me like this."

"Then why did you agree?" She asked.

"I couldn't have rejected him!"

"It seems you are in a predicament." Archangel stated while sitting beside her glancing at the menu of some strange food.

Kera sighed as she slammed her head on the ground. "Great…" In these last four hours she was panicking with Lucy about what to wear and which shoes to take and how to style her hair that she had absolutely no idea what to do with her face. Wendy had tried healing it again but she still couldn't see through her left eye and her skin wasn't completely healed yet either.

Sighing she shook her head. "I hate my life."

"Wow, you're here even before me. I thought I would be first." Came the reply of Hibiki.

Quickly Kera grabbed the menu and covered her face with it. "Oh Hibiki! Ah, it's fine, I wasn't waiting too long." The fact was, she wanted to get there first so she could hide her face.

Hibiki chuckled slightly as he saw Archangel there as well. "I see you took my offer."

Archangel nodded. "I am grateful for your invitation. I am fairly new in this town and only know Kera."

Hibiki smiled. "That's great to hear. So how long have you two known each other? As long as Happy and Natsu?"

"Not entirely." Kera said behind the menu. "We just met, but it feels like we have known each other for years."

"Ah, I understand… hey Kera, why are you hiding behind that menu." Hibiki asked glancing at her.

Ignoring that remark Kera glanced at the menu. "I think I'm going to order me a salad first… oh but then I won't be hungry for desert… hm…"

"Kera…" Hibiki tried again but Kera kept ignoring it. He really was wondering what was wrong with her.

"Oh! This sounds good, maybe I'll order that!"

"Kera."

"And for desert probably chocolate cake or…"

"Kera!" Hibiki called out with a strong voice which made Kera stop. She still held the menu up covering her face. "Yes Hibiki?" She asked hoping he would not ask this again.

"Why are you hiding behind the menu?" He asked crooking his head slightly. "I want to see that beautiful face of yours."

Kera sighed which caused Hibiki to give her a confused glance. Shaking her head slightly she sighed again. "That is the problem… you won't like what you see."

Hibiki smiled slightly. "Come on Kera. What is the problem? It can't be that bad? Is it just a small scar?"

Archangel glanced at Kera. "I think it is time you showed him."

Sighing she nodded simply. She took down the menu and glanced up at Hibiki. He looked shocked. His mouth was slightly open as he looked at her. Kera saw this and looked away. "I know… it's horrible."

"What… happened to you?" Hibiki asked seeing the bandage across her whole left side of the face.

Kera sighed lowering her head. "I… we got transported into Edolas, a parallel universe from our own and we each have counterparts there. My counterpart… burned half of my face so I wouldn't look like her. I also can't see out of my left eye."

Hibiki didn't quite know what to say. So he spoke his words through his actions. He grabbed her and made her lean over slightly. That's when he started to remove her bandage.

Kera was confused. "Hibiki, what are you…"

"Sh…" He hushed her as he kept removing the bandages. Archangel watched in silence as well knowing what the man was doing. The Exceed even smiled a little.

When he finished removing the bandages he glanced at her again. He saw that her skin was still burnt slightly and that there were visible marks around her eye. Kera glanced away. "Why do you want to see me like this? I look horrible."

Hibiki smiled as he grabbed one of her hands. "You don't look horrible Kera. It's an injury, I get it, but your face is still beautiful as always."

"But I can't see out of my left eye." Kera stated simply.

He smirked as he pulled her in and kissed her passionately. Kera closed her eyes as she enjoyed the kiss. After a few seconds passed they parted. Hibiki smiled. "How about now?"

Kera opened her eyes slightly and glanced up at Hibiki and his cute smile of his. She noticed that her left eye was still blurry, but a few blinks later it got clearer. She tried again and through blinking her vision started to clear up more.

She smiled. "I… I can see again. It's still a bit blurry, but I can see." She looked up at Hibiki with a smile which he returned.

Archangel lowered her head slightly not wanting to interrupt the beautiful moment. Hibiki grinned slightly. "What I want to know is if you planned to hide behind that menu all night."

"Can't blame a girl for trying." Kera stated with a smile.

All three of them laughed together. Kera smiled as she glanced at Hibiki. She was really lucky to have a guy like him.

And she has to thank Wendy for healing her eye.

She wasn't stupid.

Of course the kiss didn't magically heal her eye

Or did it?

Okay next chapter will be the start of the next arc. We're getting closer to the reason behind this story. Don't think I'll just rewrite the arcs with one added person without putting a little twist in it. But to realize what is going on, or piece things together earlier you'll need to have read the other story. But of course you would have read it or else this wouldn't have made any sense.

Ah anyway, I'll stop blabbing here now and let you guys go, but don't forget to leave a review!

Until next time!
