Chapter 26

March

Me: Today I have Laxus helping me.

Laxus: Akari doesn't own Fairy Tail if she did I would be the next master of Fairy Tail.

Me: Hey I didn't say that I was going to make you the master so be quiet.

It was March 10, x794 the school building had been finished and was holding classes now that it was done. Yesterday Lisanna and Bickslow got married because both wanted to get married as soon as they could. Freed had proposed to Mira at the stroke of midnight and their wedding was set for June 11, x794. Reedus and Kylie had gotten married last month and were back just in time for the school building to be completed.

As for those who are pregnant we have Erza at the end of her sixth month and beginning of her 3rd trimester. Cana is at the end of her fifth month or near the end of her 2nd trimester. Evergreen is at 21 weeks or the end of her fourth month which is in the middle of the 2nd trimester. Joining them now is Juvia at 12 weeks, Lisanna at 10 weeks, and Lucy at 9 weeks pregnant. None of them though have made it public yet waiting until they really had to tell.

So the hormones and cravings in the guild surged with the increase of pregnant women rose. Along with the increase in pregnancies was also the women having Wendy help them with morning sickness or other pregnancy symptoms. Also with the increase of pregnancies there was a decrease in women taking jobs that required fighting or a great amount of magical energy. The last major thing that changed was the couples that hadn't been dating began to date realizing that they should since they were only getting older.

Among those couples were Jet and Laki, Droy and Kinana, and Max and Meredy. Droy had decided after the GMG's to lose weight and was now back to how he used to look except a few more muscles and older. Nab had also lost weight and was an older replica of his former self. He along with Vijeeter and Warren were the only guys single in the guild. Of course there was Macao, Pantherlily and Gildarts but none of them were looking to be in a relationship.

In Sabertooth Rogue and Yukino had just gotten married and Sting was dating Millianna. Ever since Tartarus both Fairy Tail and Sabertooth were in close contact being good friends. Other than that everything was normal in Fairy Tail the usual fights occurring and gossip flying. Then like any normal day three people entered the guild going unnoticed by most as they walked towards the master's office. They knocked and entered it and came out a few minutes later separating and going to mingle with others.

"Blondie." A woman said from behind Lucy. "Flare what are you doing here?" Lucy asked seeing her behind her. "I decided to join Fairy Tail see?" Flare said showing her guild mark to Lucy which was where her Raven Tail guild-mark had been. "Well then welcome to Fairy Tail." Lucy smiled at the red head. "Hello Erza." Kagura said approaching where all the women sat. "Kagura how are you?" Erza asked as she rubbed her big belly. "I also joined Fairy Tail guild in order to be closer to you." Kagura replied.

"I see well then I hope you will adjust to being in Fairy Tail quickly." Erza said standing to hug who she considered to be her younger sister. Finally the third woman approached the table removing her cloak. "Sandra how've you been?" She asked a smile on her face. "Bethany did you join the guild too?" Sandy said getting up and hugging her. "Yup since you're my sister and you took my precious nephew with you." Bethany smiled her hazel eyes sparkled.

"Oh Jeremiah will be so happy to see you." Sandy said delighted. "So where is the little guy anyway?" She asked examining the guild for him. "Right now he's at school learning about all types of magic so when he's older he can know about more magics he can do." Sandy replied. "What I thought he was going to use concealment magic like me." Bethany pouted. "I think he will but it is good for him to learn about other magics as well." Sandy comforted her sister. "You have a point, so have you gotten any closer to getting the niece I asked for?" Bethany said poking Sandy's stomach.

"No and don't poke me." Sandy replied slapping her hand away. "Geez what's taking you so long you're only getting older." Bethany said as she sat down. "It's just…" Sandy blubbered her face becoming extremely pink. "I was only joking take as much time as you need." Bethany said laughing at her sister's embarrassment. "So you're Jeremiah's other aunt, I'm Levy Redfox, Aiden's younger sister." Levy greeted holding out her hand. "I always wondered what Aiden's sister would look like but I didn't expect you to be so different from him." Bethany said shaking Levy's hand.

"I know we don't look alike at all but he is my brother. Jeremiah is always telling me how much fun you are." Levy said smiling. "Say your last name isn't McGarden." Bethany said realizing it just then. "Well it was but I'm married so I have a new last name." Levy replied showing her the ring on her finger. "Ah, I see so who's the lucky guy?" Bethany asked scanning to see who it might be. "He's out on a mission with Natsu, Gray, Jellal, and Laxus, but he will be home in two days." Levy replied.

"So who are Natsu, Gray, Jellal, and Laxus, also what is his name?" Bethany asked curiously. "Oh sorry I forgot that you wouldn't know them. My husband's name is Gajeel Redfox, he is the Iron Dragon Slayer." Levy responded. "A dragon slayer that's awesome, I heard they are really strong and have a lot of magic." Bethany said her bored demeanor leaving. "Well yes they are strong and have a lot of magic but all of them except Wendy get motion sickness on vehicles." Levy said sighing.

"So who's Wendy?" Bethany asked. "I am Wendy, Wendy Marvell the Sky Dragon Slayer." Wendy replied raising her hand. "Really cause you're real young, no offense." Bethany said as she looked at Wendy. "None taken I was really young when I was taken in by my dragon Grandeeney so that's why I'm only 14." Wendy replied brushing it off. "So who else are dragon slayers?" She asked. "Well there is Cobra the Poison Dragon Slayer but he's in jail because he was a dark guild. Then there is Sting Eucliffe the White Dragon Slayer and Rogue Cheney the Shadow Dragon Slayer both of them are from Sabertooth though. From Fairy Tail there is Gajeel Redfox, Laxus Dreyar, Natsu Dragneel and myself." Wendy replied.

"So seven in total huh, any of them married like Gajeel?" Bethany asked. "Yes, I'm Cana Dreyar, Laxus is my husband and we have a daughter named Madison, and as you can see are going to be having another." Cana replied. "Nice to meet you Cana and congrats." Bethany replied shaking her hand. "Rouge is married to Yukino and Sting is dating Millianna as for me I'm dating Romeo Conbolt but he's out on a mission with his dad." Wendy replied. "And what about Natsu?" Bethany asked.

"I'm Lucy Dragneel, Natsu is my husband, we don't have any kids yet and I haven't said anything yet but I'm pregnant too." Lucy replied resting her hand on her flat stomach. "Really?" All the girls asked making Lucy nod in reply. "So you as well are pregnant and I do see others here too." Bethany said gesturing to the others.

"I am Erza Fernandes, Jellal is my husband this is our first baby and I'm almost 7 months pregnant." Erza said as she rubbed her belly. "Nice to meet you Erza." Bethany said shaking her hand. "I'm Evergreen Strauss, my husband is Elfman, who is sitting at the bar, and this is our first." Evergreen said laying her hand on her stomach. "Nice to meet you Evergreen." Bethany replied shaking her hand as well. "I'm Juvia Fullbuster, Gray is my husband and I just found out I'm 12 weeks pregnant." Juvia said her cheeks light pink. "You too?" The girls asked surprised. "Yes I found out yesterday." Juvia nodded. "Congratulations and nice to meet you." Bethany said shaking Juvia's hand.

"I'm Bisca Connell, my husband is Alzack he's also at the bar next to Elfman. We have a daughter Asuka she is a bit younger than Jeremiah, and a son Fuyuki he's a month older than Madison. As for being pregnant I'm not, at least not to my knowledge." Bisca smiled. "Pleasure to meet you." Bethany shook her hand. "I'm Mirajane Strauss, everyone calls me Mira, and Elfman is my younger brother. I'm engaged to Freed Justine, he is sitting and watching the kids play area." Mira said pointing to Freed. "Mira congratulations on getting married." Bethany said shaking her hand.

"I also have a younger sister her name is Lisanna Stone, she just got married yesterday to Bickslow Stone and is off on her honeymoon." Mira smiled. "Aw that is nice." She said smiling. "Then there is Kylie Jonah, she is married to Reedus Jonah, the one painting." Mira said pointing to Reedus. "Yes I see, where is she?" She asked. "She is the one teaching the children magic." Sandy said. "I'm Melody Vastia, I'm married to Lyon he is the one that isn't wearing a shirt. Today is our 1 year anniversary." Melody said pointing out Lyon. "Who are the 2 boys and 2 girls with him?" Bethany asked noticing he was talking to them.

"Good question it's a bit complicated but the boy with blonde haired boy is my younger brother Joshua Kohl he's 14. The girl with long purple hair is his friend Hiriko Knight she's 12. The boy with light brown hair is Adam Jacobs, he's Joshua's best friend, and he's 10. And the girl with dark brown hair is Nadia Meadows, she's 9, she's also Hiriko's best friend." Melody said. "Ah I see so why are they talking with him?" She asked curiously.

"That's where it gets complicated, they're talking to him because he's like their dad to them. See I knew Lyon when I was a kid but then he left to learn magic and then my family moved and had my brother. Lyon dated this woman named Rebecca Meadows, and she is Nadia's mom. Unfortunately her mom passed away and so doing what her mom asked of her at her death Nadia came here to find Gray. She then joined the guild, but back where she had lived with her mother is where Hiriko, Adam, Joshua, and I lived. The village was attacked and unfortunately we are the only survivors. Hiriko went straight here and joined the guild, while the boys and I searched for survivors.

"Time passed and Gray and Juvia got married and at their wedding Nadia met Lyon. Lyon studied the same magic as Gray under the same person until she died so they are like brothers. That's why he was at the wedding, when he met Nadia she and him got along well since they share the same magic. So he would visit often since he had been part of Lamia Scale, so he could help her with her magic. He decided after a while to join Fairy Tail so he could be closer to be able to teach her. At that point Nadia asked him to go with her on a walk and she gave him a letter.

"Her mom had sent her to Fairy Tail to find Gray and that he knew Lyon and that when she met him she was supposed to give him a letter. In the letter is was revealed that Nadia is actually Lyon's daughter that he had never known about. After that Lyon had her move in with him so he could take care of her. After that I came with the boys looking for Nadia and Hiriko and we were greeted happily by them. Lyon wasn't in the room at the time so when Nadia introduced him to us he immediately recognized me from when we were kids.

"And well when we were kids he promised to marry me and so even though Nadia was his daughter with another person I still wanted to be married to him. Upon hearing that the master said that we were husband and wife so we just accepted it and joined the guild. So those four live with Lyon and I and are like our kids and they are always spending time around me or him. That brings us to here and why he is talking to them." Melody explained to the best of her ability.

"Wow that is a crazy story, but why is he not wearing a shirt?" Bethany asked. "That's because when he and Gray were being taught their magic their master Ur had them strip to get used to the cold since they use ice-magic. And ever since they have had the bad habit of taking off their clothes without realizing it." Melody said. "Now that's funny." Bethany said. "It can be unless they take off all their clothes then it isn't fun, and Gray has done that so many times I've lost count." Lucy said covering her eyes. "He did it in front of me once, and now I'm scarred for life." Wendy said cringing at the memory.

"Wow this guild gets more interesting the more I learn about." Bethany said laughing at the strangeness of it all. "That's the nice way of putting it, you still have to see what it's like when Natsu, Gray, Gajeel, Jellal, and Laxus are here." Levy moaned. "Well in 2 days I will, is there anybody else I should know about?" She asked. "There are a few more but they're out or on missions so you will meet them some other time." Mira said. "Good to know, I already met Kagura and Flare we met while traveling here." Bethany said. "That's great so Kagura, Flare, and Bethany welcome to Fairy Tail." Mira said her sweet smile gracing her face.

~2 Days Later~

"We're back!" Natsu shouted as he kicked the guild doors open. "Hey, Natsu!" Everyone shouted back not fazed by his entrance. "Welcome home Natsu!" Lucy shouted as she ran up and hugged him. "Lucy!" Natsu said as he hugged her and spun around. "I missed you." Lucy said once he put her down. "I missed you too, anything happen while I was gone?" Natsu asked. Lucy stood on her tip-toes and whispered in his hear something only he could hear.

"Wait really?!" Natsu shouted his question. "Mhm." Lucy said nodding her head. "Oh Lucy I'm so happy." Natsu shouted as he pulled her into him for a warm embrace. "I'm glad you're happy too." Lucy said in his arms. "Well yeah because we've been married for over a year so having kids now is perfect. Especially since they're with you as their mom." Natsu said kissing her lips softly. "I love you Natsu." Lucy said kissing him back. "I love you too." Natsu replied kissing her deeply with passion.

"Welcome back Jellal, how was the mission." Erza asked once she had walked or rather waddled over to him. "As well as a mission with those guys can go." Jellal said hugging Erza. "I missed you but I think the baby missed you more than I did." Erza replied stroking her stomach. "Really what makes you say that?" Jellal asked curiously. "Well when the baby heard your voice it gave a really strong kick, that and when you were gone they weren't as energetic as they are when you are around." Erza replied taking his hand and resting it on her belly.

Jellal smiled as he felt a series of strong kicks under his hand on her stomach. "Looks like they did, but out of all of us I think I missed you two the most." Jellal said kissing her belly and forehead. "It was lonely without you around at bedtime." Erza said pouting slightly. "Well I'm back now so don't worry about being lonely." Jellal said his hand lovingly stroking her belly. "I won't." Erza said kissing him on the lips. "I love you Erza." Jellal said kissing her back. "I love you too, Jellal." Erza said again kissing him. The baby gave a strong kick reminding them about its presence. "You too little one." Jellal said kissing her stomach again.

"Gray!" Juvia shouted as she ran to him. "Juvia!" Gray shouted back his arms outstretched as if to hug her. "I missed you so much, and I want to tell you something." Juvia said as she was enveloped in Gray's embrace. "I missed you too, so what did you wanna tell me?" Gray asked. "I'm pregnant." Juvia said happily. "Seriously?" Gray asked as he held her at arms length looking down to see if he could see for himself. "Yes I took a pregnancy test and had Porlyusica check and Wendy let me here the heartbeat." Juvia answered excitedly.

"How far are you?" Gray asked equally excited. "From my calculations and what Porlyusica and Wendy said I'm around 12 weeks." Juvia answered quickly. "Oh Juvia this is great, when are you due?" Gray asked. "Well we calculated that it will be late September." Juvia replied. "Now I can't wait." Gray exclaimed kissing her gently. "Me either." Juvia replied. "I love you so much Juvia." Gray said. "I love you too Gray." Juvia said smiling brightly. Gray smiled brightly before pulling her in for a passionate kiss that expressed his joy, happiness, and love.

Cana was holding Madison when Natsu burst into the guild, so her head turned towards the sound. When she spotted Laxus she began wiggling trying to get down to go to him. She hadn't been overly talkative sticking to grunts and simple noises but she was always on her feet. Cana set her down on her feet and she quickly toddled to him squealing a big smile on her face. "DADA!" She shouted as she walked quickly towards him. "Dada uppy." She said when she was close to him.

Laxus heard her voice and turned to see her with her dark brown curls flying as she came towards him. "Hey sweetie." Laxus said kneeling down to catch her. "Dada uppy." She squealed as she reached him. Laxus scooped her up standing as she clung to him cuddling into him. "Hey Maddie did you miss me?" Laxus asked cooing to her. "Yea dada." Maddie answered as she cuddled into him more. "Hey Cana when did she start talking more?" Laxus asked when Cana arrived next to them.

"Now." Cana replied a little stunned herself. "Seriously? Laxus asked bouncing her in his arms. "Yeah she hasn't said anything more than she usually does while you were gone, but I told her this morning that you were coming home and she was babbling a bit more. But when Natsu kicked open the doors, her head turned and she saw you and the wiggled trying to get outta my arms. That's when she came towards you saying dada and asking to be picked up." Cana said brushing Madison's cheek. "I guess she was happy to see me." Laxus said smiling as he nuzzled hair.

"You would be surprised how much she missed you when you were gone, she always looked sad when I put her to bed. I guess sh missed daddy tucking her in and giving her kissies, she is such a daddy's girl." Cana said smiling at the two of them. "Aw did my little princess miss me that much?" Laxus cooed to her. "Uh-huh." Maddie nodded her head a pout on her lips. "I missed you too pumpkin." Laxus said kissing her forehead making her giggle.

"See she did miss you." Cana said smiling. "Madison missed me but what about you, Cana?" Laxus asked turning his attention to her. "Of course I did." Cana said playfully hitting him. "I'll take Maddie for now." Mira said taking Madison out of Laxus's arms walking away without saying anything else. "Where did she come from?" Laxus said having not seen her come up. "I have no idea but now it's just you and me." Cana replied. "Perfect." Laxus said as he pulled Cana into him. "Laxus…" Cana's sentence was cut off as he kissed her softly on the lips.

"I missed you so much." Laxus said after he ended the kiss. "That much huh, cause I missed you this much." Cana said kissing him back deeply. "That is quite a lot, so I guess I'll have to make up for it won't I?" Laxus playfully flirted. "Yes you will." Cana flirted back. "I see I can't wait." Laxus replied smirking as he did. "It's a good thing I love you so much." Cana said softly kissing him. "Well it's even better that I love you more." Laxus replied kissing her passionately.

Levy sat reading unaware that the guys were home so absorbed she was in the book she was reading. So when Gajeel walked over to her and was right behind her she had no idea that is until he put his hands over her eyes. "Hey what are you doing?" Levy asked not realizing the hands were Gajeel's. "Well I'm just trying to let my wife know that I'm back since she is apparently to busy reading to notice that I got back 10 minutes ago." Gajeel replied removing his hands. "Gajeel!" Levy said excited turning to see him smiling at her.

"Geez you musta not even missed me for ya not to see me." Gajeel said pretending to be upset. "No I missed you but I am almost finished reading the book so I guess I just didn't hear or see you." Levy said trying to apologize. "Don't worry yerself to much squirt." Gajeel said patting her head laughing a bit. "Not nice I thought that I actually hurt your feelings Levy pouted turning around. "Hey I'm sorry just I had to mess with ya a little bit." Gajeel said turning her around and picking her up.

"Put me down right now." Levy said miffed. "No way." Gajeel said holding her tighter as she tried to get away. "Put me down now." Levy said vainly trying to get away. Gajeel silenced her by kissing her deeply still holding her in his arms her struggling stopped. "Now do you wanna get down?" Gajeel asked after a minute. "No." Levy replied having lost all her want to fight against him. "I knew that would get you to stop." Gajeel said a huge smirk on his face.

"I missed you." Levy said ignoring his remark. "Yeah I missed ya too." Gajeel replied. "I'm sure you did." Levy said smirking, Gajeel has been rubbing off on her. "You don't have anything to tell me like Lucy and Juvia do ya?" Gajeel asked eying her a bit. "Nope nothing, I'm as far as from pregnant as you can get." Levy smiled answering him. "Well it wouldn't be too bad if you were pregnant." Gajeel mumbled a bit. "Did I just hear the big, strong, tough Iron Dragon Slayer say that he wants kids?" Levy asked him teasingly.

"Hey I never said I didn't want kids." Gajeel complained. "I know I was just messing with you." Levy said kissing his cheek. "Well would ya stop?" Gajeel asked blushing slightly. "That's why I love you so much." Levy said smiling. "Yeah I love ya too." Gajeel said gently kissing her before putting her down.
