SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 34 out, this is Chapter 35 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?

Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot bunny and my OCs.

Chapter 35: A Guild for the Sake of a Single Person

"So cute." Lucy beamed, having changed into one of Caitshelter's costumes.

"Oh?" Sherry taunted. "I'm far cuter."

"The entire village here is part of the Guild." Wendy explained. "So clothing production is a thriving business."

"That explains a lot." Reiana nodded.

"Is it some kind of Nirvit traditional sewing?" Litana wondered, giving her dress a glance-over.

"Now that I think about it, maybe it is." Wendy mused.

"You didn't realize that the Guild was all descendants of the Nirvit, did you?" Ditea asked.

"I'm the only one who joined afterwards." Wendy replied.

"Speaking of which, Wendy, when did Caitshelter join the League of Guilds?" Sherry thought to ask. "I apologize for being blunt, but until this mission begun, I had not even heard of your Guild's name."

"Is that so?" Wendy smiled. "My Guild must really be one of the more obscure ones."

"Who cares?" Carla scolded. "Everyone is waiting."

"Fairy Tail, Blue Pegasus, Lamia Scale, and Wendy and Clara," Robaul greeted the gathered mages. "You have done well in defeating the Oracion Seis and stopping Nirvana. As a representative for the local League of Guilds, I, Robaul, say a job well done. Thank you."

"It was our pleasure, Master Robaul." Ichiya replied. "The fight with Oracion Seis was one fierce battle after the next. There was not a single easy battle. But the bond between us allies, led us on the path of victory." He posed.

"You said it, sensei." The Trimens applauded.

"Oh sure, take all the good parts for yourself." Gray snorted.

"Did he even fight anyone?" Lucy wondered.

"It's finally over." Sherry added.

"You two did well yourself." Jura praised.

"You're supposed to throw a party now, right?" Natsu prompted.

"Someone, get a tranquilizer, or four." Reiana joked as Ichiya and the Trimens started dancing.

"Tranquilizer darts, on the ready." Ulyo's crystal senbon were already on between her fingers.

"Taichou, permission to shoot?" Litana turned to Ditea.

"Not yet." Ditea chuckled.

"Yet?" Leon twitched.

"Everyone," Robaul started. "I am truly sorry about hiding our legacy as Nirvit."

"Master, I don't mind." Wendy stated.

"Everyone, listen carefully to what I am about to say." Robaul continued. "To start, we are not the descendants of the Nirvit. We are the Nirvit themselves. 400 years ago, it was I who created Nirvana. 400 years ago, in order to stop the war that was raging across the world, I created Nirvana, a magic that inverts light and darkness. Nirvana became our country, and for a time, we realized peace. However, great power will, without fail, give rise to a greater power opposing it. As much as Nirvana changed darkness for light, Nirvana itself became wrapped in darkness. It was to maintain balance. It was impossible to change people's personalities to light without limit. As light rises to oppose the darkness, so does darkness rise to oppose the light, without fail. The darkness lost from the various peoples came back upon us Nirvit. It was hell. We killed each other, until no one was left. I am the only survivor. Well, at this point, that's not exactly right." He corrected. "My physical body has long perished, I am what you might call a spectral form now. Or rather, a weak ghost trying to atone for his sins in the past. I watched over Nirvana for 400 years until someone appeared who would be able to destroy it. And now," he smiled. "My role is finally over."

"What are you saying?" Wendy muttered. "What is this?" she looked around as the people of the Guild started vanishing.

"What's going on here?" Hibiki was shocked. "They're all disappearing."

"Illusions…" Ulyo realized.

"I expected nothing less from Toph's legacy; your ability to see through my mirages is only superseded by Toph herself." Robaul nodded. "I apologize for deceiving you, all the members of the Guild are illusions created by me."

"Illusions with their own personalities?" Leon was stunned.

"I…" Robaul added. "Lived alone in these ruins, protecting Nirvana. 7 years ago, a single boy came here. I couldn't turn down the request of that boy and his fierce, honest eyes. Even though I had promised myself I would stay alone. And so, I created an illusionary family. Wendy, Carla, you no longer need a foster family. Don't you have real friends now? Your future has only just begun."

"Master!" Wendy screamed, running towards the vanishing ghost.

"Everyone, truly, thank you." Robaul stated. "Thus, I return the Senshi's powers to their rightful owners. I leave Wendy and Carla in your hands." With that, Wendy's Guild mark faded away, the golden dust shimmered around the four Guardians, before splitting into four spirals and entered the Senshi's transformation talismans; miniature angelic wings appeared on their respective spheres, complete with illuminated Planetary marks.

"So…" Litana trailed. "What do we call ourselves now?"

"Cosmic Senshi." Ditea supplied.

"That's a new one." Reiana admitted.

"Could be worse." Ulyo shrugged.

"How so?" Leon asked.

"Two words, Twilight Senshi." Ulyo grinned.

"Ulyo, did you have to say the 'T' word?" Reiana shivered.

"Master!" Wendy screamed, weeping.

"Bury the pain of losing your loved ones into the arms of your friends." Erza rested a hand on the grieving Dragon' Slayer's shoulder. "Come. To Fairy Tail."
