The Take-over Siblings were taken to Iceberg's office along with Paulie along with some of the Galley-La employees and two square sisters and as for the fishman he was locked up in another room hand-cuffed. While the others of Galley-La went back to work and Grandma Kokoro and her granddaughter Chimeny along with her pet rabbit went back to their house.

"Grandma, do you think the three strangers will be ok?" Chimeny asked.

Her pet rabbit Gonbe rubbed his head against her side. "Oh hello...Gonbe!" She giggled while petting the little critter.

Kokoro drunk sake as she exhaled. "Who knows, but I'm grateful that those youngters saved our island, I must admit their powers are quite unique..."

Chimeny titled her head in confusion. "Unique, what do you mean granny?" Her grandma didn't answer but her face was showning signs of curiousness. "I wish I knew...but after our friends mentioned Devils fruits I noticed the three kids seemed confused...as if they never heard a devil fruit before..."

The three former Fairy Tail wizards revealed their powers to be magic and why they landed on their floating like island.

"You three are from another world!?" Iceberg exclaimed.

"Where magic exists!" Paulie added.

"You each three have Take-Over spells!" Mozu and Kiwi exclaimed in unison.

Lisanna could tell this sound unbelievable to them. "Yes, I know it sounds crazy, but it's the truth, and we heard you guys mention something about Devil fruits."

Iceberg calmy closed his eyes. "Yes, we met a few people that had powers like, he took a wanted poster of a strawhat boy."

Elfman looked at the picture. "Who is this young man?" Iceberg expected this but the others didn't.

"Hold on, you never heard of Strawhat Luffy!?" Paulie exclaimed.

The three siblings shook their heads as Paulie took out his cigar and blew some smoke with a suddened calm look. "Well, I shouldn't be too surprised I mean, you three never heard of Devil Fruits before, so I suppose we'll take your story to heart." He glanced at his boss which he responded with a nod.

Mirajane smiled. "Does that mean you believe us?"

Paulie turned his head to face her. "Yes, though I admit this a whole lot to take in, but you and your siblings saved our island and Galley-La too, so think of it as a repaying our debt to you three."

Peepley Lulu had a question of his own as he looked at Lisanna. "Exuse me miss, can you show another your transformation?" Lisanna saw no harm in that. "Ok, Animal Soul: Bird!" She took the form of a large bird with green and pink feathers.

Iceberg gasped quietly. "Unbelievable..."

Mozu and Kiwi were surpised. "Such a impressive transformation!"

"Is there anything else you can transform?"

Paulie clapped his hands. "Hey, we're getting off topic here!" Lisanna knew the vice-president has a point as she reverted back to her human form. "So we'll continue our discussion."

Tilstone was eager to see more of their transformations. "Yeah, then we can see more of our new friends transformations!"

"Keep it down!" Paulie shouted comically.

"Anyway, if you're wondering who Strawhat Luffy is, he's a pirate and the captain of the Strawhat pirates, despite he's a pirate, he saved my life and the Galley-La workers." Iceberg explained.

"Yeah, if it wasn't for Strawhat, Iceberg and I would've been dead." Paulie added.

Mirajane was interested in this Luffy character. "I see, what else can you tell about this Luffy?"

Paulie explained how he and his friends from Galley-La thought Luffy and his crew attacked Iceberg because a woman named Robin along with a masked man shot him about five times.

The three Take-over wizards gasped in horror as Paulie knew this was coming. "Yeah, though Iceberg was badly injured, he pulled through I mean he's tough as nails." He continued to tell the three wizards about his story of finding out about the culprits behind the masks and found out that it was four people they knew back then.

The images of Lucci, Kaku, Kalfia, and Blueno flowed through Paulie and Iceberg's mind, their betrayel was still fresh in their minds. "You can imagine how Iceberg and I reacted to our friends betrayel..." He gritted his teeth as tears were started to form in his eyes.

Lisanna felt sorry for the two big shots of Water 7 and Galley-La. "That's horrible."

Elfman growled. "How can real men betray their friends?"

Mirajane felt pity for them. "I'm sorry that you and friends had to go through that."

Paulie took a deep breathe and wiped away his tears. "Sigh" I know the past can't be re-written, however I still have other companions that are true."

Elfman smirked. "Heh, that's what a real man is like!"

"MAN!" Tilestone roared with a cheer.

Iceberg cleared his throat. "Anyway, I assume that you three aren't the only ones here in our world?"

The question got the others to respond with a gasp. "That's right, our friends are still out there!" Mira replied.

"Yeah, we don't know where they are either!" Lisanna added.

Just then another employee came barraging in the office. "Hey, Iceberg, we got some new wanted posters, three of them in fact!"

Paulie walked over took one. "This woman with scarlet hair is-" The word scarlet got the attention of the wizards as Lisanna snatched the poster away. "Hey!"

The animal soul user looked at the wanted poster. "Scarlet Knight Erza: Wanted Dead or Alive: Bounty: 25,000,000!"

"No way!" Elfman looked in surprise.

"Who's this black haired woman?" Kiwi asked. "She's holding a sword in it's steath, that's un-usual." Mozu added.

Mirajane took the wanted poster. "Sword Steathe Warrior Kagura: Wanted Dead or Alive: Bounty: 25,000,000!"

Elfman took the last wanted poster and gasped. "Memory Revealer Mest: Wanted Dead or Alive: Bounty: 20,000,000!"

"I take those are friends of yours!" Iceberg asked figuring the reactions he's seeing.

"Yes, the bounties I wonder what they did." Lisanna asked with concern.

Mirajane sighed and smiled a little. "Well, we know that our friends wouldn't do something bad, so they have a reason to get bounties."

Elfman smirked. "Yeah, real men wouldn't cause trouble if they had a reason."

Paul sweatdropped. "The two women in the wanted posters aren't men."

Lisanna giggled a little. "If Natsu and Happy see this, I can imagine this might give them an idea especially Natsu for that matter."

Mirajane shared the same feeling. "That's for sure, he might start to get bounty too."

Elfman sighed. "Yes, I bet he will do something stupid and cause a racket."

After hearing this caught the interest of the Iceberg and the others. "Who is this Natsu friend of ours?"

Lisanna decided to answer that. "He's a wizard like us, he does act out without thinking."

Iceberg smiled a little. "That sounds like Luffy, from what I heard, he can be reckless and childlish but is still a good kid."

Elfman groaned. "Just what we need another Natsu." Everyone laughed but so did Elfman.

"Anyway, boss Iceberg, what should we do about the Fishman?" The other employee asked.

Iceberg was thinking the same thing for awhile. "Good question, we can't keep him locked up forever and if we let him go the navy might find him or other pirates might try to catch him and sell him to auction houses."

Lisanna felt a little sorry for the fishman. "Excuse me, can I and my siblings speak to him?" Iceberg turned his head to her confusion.

A short time later.

The three take-over siblings went into the room where the Fishman was being held. "What do you want?"

"Relax, we're not here to start a fight, we're here to talk with you." Elfman answered putting his hand out defensivily.

Lisanna walked over to the fishman. "Excuse me, what is your name again?"

The Fishman narrowed his eyes at short whited haired girl. "Aquapad, I'm a type fishman resembles a blue Marlin." He pointed at his nose. "You can tell that by my nose..."

Lisanna was quite interested. "I never seen Fishmen before...is there others like you?" Aquapad was little hesitate. "Well, what if there is, I mean you three are going probably sell me to auction houses..."

The three take-over siblings raised their eye brows. "Hey, real men don't sell people or fishmen to auction houses!" Elfman roared.

The loud yell caught the fishman marlin by surprise. "Ouch, all humans say that, once we let our guard down, you humans will backstab us and leave us in the dirt!"

Mirajane can sense such hostile from the fishman. "Excuse me, is there reason you're so hostile to humans?"

Aquapad gritted his teeth. "Tch! Well since you spared me, I'll guess I'll tell my story and history of my kind..."

After a few hours Aquapad was finished about his story including the mention of Fishtiger. "That's it, humans sold out my old friend Fishtiger, he risked his life to save some slaved Fishman, not only that he risked his neck to save human slaves, then after returning a child to her family he was sold out and shot down, after that things haven't been same at least for the fishmen that were once enslaved, as far as I remember after they returned, I looked at their faces when I had the chance and saw hostile in their eyes they must feel towards humans."

The three take over siblings felt a bit sorry for the young fishman.

"About a year ago after going on a journey, I was captured by pirates, I thought I was going to be sold, but they came up with solution, if I take them to Fishman Island they would set me free, but since you three took out my former captain, I guess I'm lucky but either way, you three or those humans on this floating island will sell me out and-" He stopped as hand slapped his face which was Lisanna.

Elfman and Mirajane were surprised at this action from their youngest sibling. "Eh!?"

Aquapad put his hand on his face. "What the heck was that?!" Lisanna took a deep breathe. "I'm sorry about your friend Fishtiger, I can't imagine about what you must be feeling against humans, in fact we have a friend that was in similar situation as your friends were!"

Elman and Mirajane realized who their youngest sibling was talking as an image of Erza flowed through their mind as Lisanna continued her speech. "Listen, I'm sorry that your kind had to go through such a nightmare, but we're all friends here, believe us or not, we're Fairy Tail Wizards, we'll take a job which will be to take you home, but first we need to find our friends, but we will see to it that you will be brought back to your island!"

Aquapad was stunned though he was show doubt in his eyes which Elfman noticed. "Listen as men we need to man up and try to move forward, so the least you can do is man up and trust us despite we're humans!"

Mirajane smiled calmy. "We mean it, as Fairy Tail wizards we'll journey to find our friends and once we do, we'll find a way to take you back home."

Aquapad was taken aback by this. "Can I really trust these three humans, wizards are they serious?" He remembered something that Hatchan told him.

Hatchen's words went through his mind.

A child Aquapad was talking with the octopus fish-man. "Hachi, is true that you're friends with a human pirate?"

The octopus man smiled. "That's right, he was really nice not mention grateful for saving his life, don't forget King Neptune is friends with Whitebeard too."

"You think I can be friends with some humans?" Aquapad asked.

Hachi smiled. "I admit there some humans that are bad, but I'm sure there's some that are good like Rayleigh and Whitebeard, but things will take time, just follow your heart and trust the words of Hachi!"

Lisanna's voice was heard. "Excuse me, is something wrong?" He realized that the white short haired girl was close to his face. "Huh!? He fell backwards with a flustered look on his face. "You scared me!" Lisanna on her butt the ground. "Me too!"

Mirajane and Elfman laughed as Lisanna and Aquapad looked at the two. "I suppose it's funny..." Aquapad didn't know but he was all smiling now. "Hachi, I think made some human friends..."
