Hi guys. Stellar Flames here, this is the thirty-eighth chapter of the fan fiction me my friend have been working on. We mainly have the set characters we act as, but we also take turns with the less common characters. with our names we like to go by our favourite character, so I'm lucy, my female friend is natsu . together we worked together to create this fan fic.
thanks to everyone who has reviewed, I love hearing what you have to say so we can improve the story if we need to.
We do not own fairy tail, fairy tail belongs to Hiro Mashima
Erza: I have a bad feeling but other than that I'm not sure
Natsu: So what are we gonna tell them?
Erza: we will only tell them what they need to know
Gray: I think that would be best
lucy: I agree.
Makarov: tell the council what you must, but I personally would like a report as soon as possible
Erza: yes of course master
Natsu: *looks to Lucy* (you reckon we should tell him?)
Lucy: (I'm not sure. it's the master we should be able to trust him. But the council is already holding such a tight grip on him
Natsu: (I guess you're right. But with everything that's happened especially in the last few days... I'm not sure how much we should reveal)
Lucy: (we should only tell him the basics, nothing that will set off alarm bells)
Natsu: (okay)
Lucy: (should we both tell him)
Gray: of course master; but would it be okay if we freshen up a little first
Lucy: yeah that would be nice
Natsu: (if we do it'll have to be in private. we should probably tell Mira too if she's recreating the potion)
Lucy: (okay)
Makarov: that is fine. I will send word to the council that you have returned and will see them as soon as possible
Erza: thank you master
Mira: you can freshen up in the infirmary. I'll bring you guys food and drink shortly
Lucy: thank you Mira
-in the infirmary-
Natsu: *sigh* It's good to be back
Lucy: yeah. It's been so long
Gray: So. What's our plan with the council?
Erza: basically, we're only telling them that we were looking for Igneel, we don't mention Lucy and Natsu's transformation. we also mention rescuing Caleb and Damon but we don't mention what we did to their sister
Natsu: Have we heard anything about her?
Erza: not really
Natsu: What about Caleb and Damon?
Erza: they've been taken in by a foster family
Gray: What about flame brain's past?
Natsu: I say if it doesn't come up, we don't mention it
Gray: And if it does?
Natsu: What makes you so sure it'll come up, icicle breath?
Gray: I'm not saying it will, but we should be prepared if it does
Erza: cut it out you two. Gray is right was should we say if they happen to ask about your past
-at that moment, Mira walks into the room-
Mira: *looking sheepish* did I interrupt something?
Erza: oh no, nothing at all we're just talking about what we're going to do after we speak to the council
Mira: *looks at Lucy bandaging Natsu's back to keep the wing stumps hidden- Would you two like some help?
Lucy: *shakes her head* oh no Mira, I'm fine here. I can do it
Mira: If you're sure. *looks back before exiting the room* Welcome back, *smiles* it's great to have you all back
Lucy: thanks Mira
-Mira leaves the room-
Natsu: If it comes up I don't want to think about what they'll do if the council finds out about my 'family'
Gray: Not to mention your age. It's not every day you see a 400 year old mage walking around
Lucy: that's a good point
Natsu: If it comes up, we'll just talk about Igneel and my past with him. Simple as that *smiles widely*
Lucy: *smiles at natsu* yeah
Gray: Okay, let's finish freshening up, and then we'll go
Erza: okay. lucy and natsu are you finished
Lucy: just about * tapes down the bandages* okay there we go
Natsu: *shrugging on his post-time skip jacket* Let's move
-At the council chambers-
CM: Thank you for taking the time to see us. Natsu Dragneel, Gray Fullbuster, Lucy Heartfilia, and Erza Scarlet
Erza: it's really no bother
CM: On the contrary. I'm sure you must have been incredibly busy to not have come and reported to us sooner
Erza: we were on a mission which we just recently returned from
CM: Yes. We have been informed by Guild Master Makarov about your mission. That is the reason why you have been called here. *briefly looks at Natsu then looks away* As well as to determine the actions to be taken with the Salamander
Natsu: Actions to be taken?
Lucy: what actions?
CM: We will come to that at the appropriate time. Meanwhile, please deliver your last mission's report
Erza explains what happened leaving out information about Natsu and Lucy's transformation getting worse and running into Natsu's father
CM: I see. I find it interesting the type of magic the female wizard used against you
Erza: how so?
CM: That particular type of magic has not been seen in decades
Erza: well we saw it with our own eyes
CM: I see
Erza: is there a problem
CM: There is if there are more wizards developing magic similar to this
Erza: I understand
CM: Now. For the issue of the salamander.
Natsu: look, as much as i like that nickname I do have an actual name
CM: That may be the case. But the fact is a decision must be made as to how your 'condition' is best dealt with
Lucy: Natsu's condition hasn't progressed since the last time we spoke
CM: even if that is the case; a mage experiencing the Draconium Arcanum is not something we can easily ignore
Lucy: so what do you plan on doing?
CM: Our first instinct was to have him kept under supervision in the council cells. But, after what happened last time we have decided to leave this in the hands of your guild. Effectively leaving any of the consequences to be handled by Fairy Tail.
Lucy: okay
Natsu: So... you're letting me go?
CM: We are transferring the responsibility of your condition to your Guild Master. However our initial decision of doing what is necessary when and if the time comes, still stands
Erza: we understand
Gray: Thank you for seeing us
CM: You may leave now
Natsu and Gray bow at the council members and leave
Lucy and Erza curtsy then leave
-on the way back to the guild-
Natsu: *widely smiling* Well that's a good sign at least
Lucy: well it's better than what they said last time *smiles*
Gray: I don't think we're off the hook yet. They knew exactly what was happening to Natsu, name and everything
Erza: *frowns* yes that is concerning
Natsu: It'll be fine. You two are worrying too much
Lucy: come on guys it's finally some good news for once
Gray: I know that. But it's still something to be worried about
Erza: Gray's right you two, you should be more concerned
Lucy's smile disappears and a frown replaces it
Natsu: Don't get me wrong; I am worried
Natsu: *turns back to look at Lucy, Gray and Erza with a big grin on his face* But this is happening and there's nothing we can do about it right now.
Lucy: *nods* right *smiles*
Gray: Nice to see your optimism is still there cinder breath
Natsu: Of course it's there snowflake. Now, let's get back to the guild
Lucy: yeah
Erza: let's get going
-Back at the guild, Mira stayed up to wait for the team to return-
Mira: How'd it go?
Erza: it went fine. No trouble at all
Gray: You didn't have to stay up and wait for us Mira
Mira: *yawns and smiles* It's fine. I just wanted to make sure you were all okay
Lucy: that was sweet of you Mira, but you need your sleep
Natsu: *walks over to Mira and picks her up damsel-style* I'll take you home. No need for you to be absolutely exhausted tomorrow.
Mira: Natsu... *smiles and starts to close her eyes and drifts off to sleep*
Erza: are you sure you can take her home?
Natsu: She and Lisana live in the same house. I know the way
Erza: do you want anyone to come with you?
Gray: It'd be a good idea. We don't want someone ambushing him while he's carrying her
Erza: so natsu who do you want to go with you
Gray: I'll go so i can make sure cinder butt doesn't get lost.
Natsu: I guess that answers the question then (I'll see you later I guess.) *yawns* Night Luce, night Erza
Gray: goodnight Girls
