Previously:

"It is nice to have a name to a face." The elderly man said, "Now please explain why you are randomly appearing in my guild like this."

"I don't know…I was in a meeting where I lived before this. Then I got dizzy and woke up here." Toshiro answered standing up holding his hand over his wound. He muttered a healing spell letting it heal enough not to bother him. He blinked when the others stared at him shocked, "What?"

"You just spoke in a language we didn't understand please forgive us." The old man said.

"Its…I see." Toshiro turned to look away from everyone in the room.

Now:

Toshiro sighed as he stared out the window. His eyes didn't just look emotionless as they had one emotion. And that emotion showed that he felt lost as he thought about what Hyorinmaru had told him, 'What does he mean I don't belong there? I died and was in Soul Society? That is what souls do?'

"Hey, you okay?"

Teal eyes looked up shocked for a split second before it disappeared with his guard completely up as he looked at the Fire Dragon Slayer standing next to him. He asked without any emotion, "Why do you ask?"

The pink haired male cocked an eyebrow, "Uh, because you look kind of lost."

The white haired male looked away, "I'm fine just finding a way to get back home." Everything had been explained to Master Makarov and the guild. He didn't know what possessed him to explain what had happened and where he came from but it was done already and that couldn't be changed.

Natsu blinked as the rest of the guild watched the interaction carefully. The guild master more so than anyone else as he thought to himself, 'The kid may have explained that he has lived longer than he looks but that just means that he has that much more to grow. On the inside he is a child but he doesn't realize that. He acts so adult like it is almost scary.'

"Well how about you enjoy your time here while you have the chance?" The Dragon Slayer suggested with a bright smile.

Toshiro snorted saying in a hard voice and very un-amused, "I don't have time for games. I have a division to run and at this moment in time my division is captainless." The captain left the guild in anger accidentally freezing the window he was at.

Makarov sighed as he looked down, "He acts too grown up for his young age."

"But he said he was 50 years old." Gray said leaning forward on the bar.

"Yes but that just means he has that much longer to live and learn. He would be but a child to his people." Makarov explained putting his beer mug down, "However as he explained he is a captain. That would force anyone to grow up faster if the position is given to someone too young to completely comprehend what they were given." The master sighed, "Even if they are more mature at the beginning."

Gray looked down, "I…see."

"So there has got to be something left of his inner child." The guild looked at Natsu, "Right?"

Makarov gave a small smile, "Yes, but I can assure you that it won't be easy to drag out."

The Dragon Slayer smirked, "Then we just have to work that much harder to bring it out. Everybody has a right to be a child, even a captain of some stupid military."

The master laughed, "Yes, you are right Natsu."

"Well then I have to try again. Even if I piss him off. Bye." The pink haired male ran off after the angry captain of a different world. "Hey, wait up!"

Toshiro sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose, "What do you want?"

"Hey, I was just wondering what you wanted to do?"

The white haired boy sighed, "I already told you what I wanted to do. I want to find a way home. And I don't have time to dally."

"Oh, come on what about the time you won't be looking for a way back?"

Toshiro paused shocked then answered coolly, "Contemplate what I learned."

Natsu sighed, "You have got to be kidding me." Before he could ask anything else Toshiro had disappeared. "Well there goes that idea."

Toshiro sighed as his hand twitched. He squeezed his hand into a fist. 'What am I supposed to do? I can't find any possible clear way to get back and I have been searching for four days straight.' He looked up when the girl named Lucy touched his shoulder, "Yes?"

She smiled, "How about you get something to eat. You have been thinking for the last few hours. And…" The blond indicated to the wall, "…you are kind of freezing the wall."

Teal eyes looked at the said wall and widened as he blushed in embarrassment, "I'm sorry, I forgot to reel in my Spiritual Pressure."

Toshiro looked at the master of the guild chuckling unable to pull in his embarrassed reaction, "Not to worry my boy. Accidents happen."

The captain looked away fidgeting uncertainly, "Not from me. I'm supposed to be in control."

"Powers are not meant to be completely controllable." Toshiro peeked over at the master of Fairy Tail, "They are a force of nature. The best we can do with powers is have just enough to control to make it want to listen to us."

Erza smiled as she saw what the others other than Makarov didn't. What looked like uncertainty in Toshiro's eyes was actually a lost child who didn't know what to do. Natsu was right the child side was still inside the boy it was just so closely guarded that it never had a chance to come out. 'I think we will actually be able to see what his true childish side the longer he says with us.' "Hey where have you been looking for you information if you don't mind my asking?"

Toshiro blinked pulling in his 'uncertainty' as he answered, "The town library."

The red head smiled, "You know we have a library as well right?" Teal eyes slowly widened with shock, "And I can promise we have far better books." Toshiro looked like he didn't know what to say, "Unfortunately there is only one way to access them. But this way also allows you to get money and a place to live." She gave a small smile as the white haired captain looked at her, "Sorry, but I didn't make the rules. They have been here since I was a kid. It is just a matter of are you willing to do so to find a way home."
