Everybody was at Fairytail to say goodbye to Mortis and Spirit. They were both sat on the bar next to each other, with their bags by their feet on the floor. "I can't believe you're going already kid" Gajeel said. "Thanks Gajeel. I'll miss you" Mortis smiled. "yeah me too. Work on your fighting strategy and we'll both kick salamander's ass when you come back" he smiled. "You can count on it" she laughed. "I'm so glad you're coming with us" Spirit said. "It will be great to with Jellal again. And maybe we can actually have a friendship where we can hang out and not sleep in shifts" Mortis smirked.
She suddenly noticed Gray right at the back guild. She could tell something was wrong as he was fully clothed.
She got down from the bar and walked over to him. "Why the long face snowman?" she asked. His brows furrowed and he lied "nothing." Mortis stuck his feet to the floor with ice as she said "tell me the truth. Look I will be back. I don't know when, but I'll be back." Gray looked at her and said "I thought I would be fine if you decided to leave. But when Natsu said you were, I'm gutted." He then smiled at her and said "but I will miss you." He freed his feet and hugged her. "If you see Lyon on your travels kick his ass" he whispered in her ear.
"Mortis!" She turned around to see Jellal and Spirit with their bags. Mortis walked over and Jellal handed her, her blue coat. She put in on and grabbed her bag. She was then tackled to the ground by Natsu and Lucy. "You didn't think you were going without saying goodbye to us!" Lucy laughed. Mortis hugged them both. "Come back soon ok!" Lucy said, helping her up. Natsu stared at his sister and didn't know what to say. "say something you jerk!" she laughed. "Have fun, look out for Igneel and visit soon!" he smiled. Mortis replicated the smile and everybody saw the same dragon thang toothy grin. "You can count on it!" she said.
Jellal, Spirit and Mortis walked together out of the guild, with everybody shouting goodbye. Mortis looked back with a tear down her cheek. This the family she left and it will be the family she will come back to one day. "I'll miss you all!" she shouted back. Erza walked beside Gray and asked "are you ok?" He nodded and said "it's weird. Because of her she made me and Natsu brothers in some way." She shivered at that thought. Erza couldn't help but to laugh. Lucy Linked arms with Natsu and said "she will be back soon." "Oh I know" he smiled. Happy flew and landed on his shoulder. "I still have you two. Anyway we should find a job or we're going to starve for the next year" he smiled.
