On with the story
Everyone looks in horror as Natsu whipped his sword to the side before making it disappear
"Natsu?!" Gray shouted before feeling a rising magical power coming from Natsu as he turned his head to glare at Gray
"Silence" Natsu said darkly before turning to looking at Lahar
"what do you think you're doing?!" Lahar exclaimed at him
"he was supposed to be sentence at the council!"
Natsu scoffed before snapping his fingers as the nearby trees suddenly burns in flames
"gah!" Lahar looks in disbelieve as Natsu looks at him straight in the eye
"Jellal Fernandez retaliated and was about to harm the nearby guards, but Natsu Dragov passed judgement upon him" Natsu said as his eyes glowed like a demon
"Bu-!?" Lahar tried to retort but failed when Natsu's eyes turned dragon
"or should I make the report on how Jellal had managed to kill all the Custody Enforcement that were sent to arrest him then I passed judgement upon him?"
Natsu said darkly as his face burst into flames
Lahar took a step back as he shook his head
"Good" Natsu said before he made a shooing motion to them
"we'll be taking the body," Natsu said as Lahar nodded hesitantly before calling his men back
Natsu waited till they were completely gone before lifting his hand up as he blocked a punch from Gray
"You bastard! He's one of us! How could you do that!?"
Gray shouted at Natsu as he pushed his fist away
"Jellal Fernandez is a convict with sins, he is applied as a criminal that must be terminated," Natsu said before put his hand up and grabbed Gray's fist
"how could you!?" Gray shouted while Wendy was crying as Lucy holds her
"have you forgotten one of my rules," Natsu said as he walks to Jellal's fallen figure
Everyone looks to him as Natsu lifted Jellal up by his collar and then started shaking him
To everyone's surprise, they all saw Jellal's eyes opening slowly
"what!?" they all exclaimed
"I only kill as a last resort," Natsu said before pushing away Jellal
"but we saw you!?" Lucy exclaimed before seeing Jellal open his shirt and revealed a huge burn scar on his chest down to his stomach
"when I strike at him, I burned the wound closed so that it would like I killed him," Natsu said with a scoff before walking to a tree as he leaned on it
"say your goodbyes, he won't be staying here long," Natsu said as he closed his eyes
Near sunrise
at a cliff
Natsu was leaning to a tree as he waits for Erza to bid her goodbye to Jellal
He looks and sees the two hugging each other
Natsu felt irritated for doing this, but if it's for Erza, he'll just have to suck it in for now
He then hears Erza and Jellal saying goodbye before seeing them looking to each other
Natsu leans away from the tree and summoned a bag into his hand and walked towards them
"here" Natsu said as he threw the bag to Jellal who caught it
"that should help you survive for a few months" Natsu said while Erza was silent
Jellal nodded as he looks inside and sees clothing, and a sack full of jewels
"thank you" Jellal thanked Natsu
Natsu looks to him before sighing
"You want to pay for your mistakes, right?" Natsu said to him
"However I can." Jellal answered.
"Let me just make this clear." Natsu said.
" Don't even speak to me again. I don't care what you feel, I don't care what you think. I don't even care about your life anymore. But...Erza and Wendy do. I already beat you once. But I will kill you the next time you ever harm either of them. Not even Erza, or all the goodhearted people in the world will stop me." He glared out to the forest below him. "...go, now." He ordered as he clenched his teeth.
"...thank you. I promise, I won't ever hurt her again. I will do my best-no, I will not let your sparing me, and Erza's expectations go to waste." Jellal vowed with a firm resolve.
"just go" Natsu said as he looks away as Jellal nodded before bowing to him and Erza one last time before taking the bag and walk away to the other side of the cliff
Natsu and Erza looks to him leaving as they stood still to where they were standing
Natsu looks to Erza as he sees that she is still silent as ever
"I'll be going back" Natsu said as he turns around to walk away but was stopped as Erza grabbed his hand
"thank….you….." Erza shakily stuttered out as Natsu could hear tears falling to the ground
"thank….you….Natsu" Erza cried out as Natsu sighed softly to her before pulling her into an embrace
"let it out, I'm here for you" Natsu said before he felt Erza shaking more as she then started to cry on him
Erza drops to her knees as well as Natsu as he let her cry on him while holding her
The sun rises as it let out a beautiful scarlet shine that fits beautifully to Erza's hair colour
She continued to cry on Natsu as he holds her tight yet gently as she let out all of her pent up emotions to him
""for you…I will do anything" Natsu thought as he smiled while caressing Erza' hair
Two days later
Natsu was sleeping on Erza's lap in a carriage as they were all going back home
After the battle, they were given gratitude by one of the 4 guild alliance members, the master of Caitshelter, Master Robaul
He then explained that the members of Caitshelter were not descendant of the Nirvit tribe rather they were the Nirvit Tribe themselves
Wendy and Charla had to stood there and see their guild members disappearing one bye one as they were never real yet they were just illusion created by Master Robaul so that Wendy would not be sad to see that she did not joined the guild she had dreamed off
Master Robaul then disappeared as the CaitShelter guild mark on Wendy and Charla disappears as well
Wendy cried in tears as to see her beloved guild disappearing before her eyes but she was comforted by none other than Erza who invited her to come to her new home and family, Fairy Tail
Now back to the present
Everyone was coming back home as Gray was driving the carriage while Lucy, Charla and Wendy were chatting on the things, the two new recruits will see when she comes to the guild
Erza continued to caress Natsu's head while Milo was sleeping beside them
"Erza…." Natsu called out as he looks up to her
Erza hummed reply as she sees Natsu reaching his hand up to her face
"I love you" Natsu said before pulling Erza down as he kissed her while her hair was being a curtain of scarlet that separated them from the outer world
Wendy and Charla blushes while Gray and Lucy were shrugging their shoulders with a sigh
Gray then called out as he sees the town coming into view
Natsu smiled as he rested back on Erza's lap as she continued to caress him
That's a wrap!
Bye bye
