Author's Note 1: Time for the big brawl! Also, there's an important announcement at the end of the chapter.

Chapter 23: Set Free

Bullets and energy arrows were flying through the corridors of the Crusader HQ as Zeke and Effie began their sharpshooting duel while Lucy deflected any projectiles that came her way with her Celestial Arm.

"Come on, arrow boy! Show me what you got!" Effie said with a sickeningly sweet smile as she twirled and fired.

"Lucy, get out of here!" Zeke yelled out as he quickly tossed the Transport Stone to her. The blonde understood the gesture and nodded, quickly running from the battle.

"Aww, that's sweet! You're sacrificing yourself to save your girlfriend." Effie said with a taunting tone.

Zeke didn't even bother correcting her as he readied his next spell and the battle began anew.

Back with Natsu, Alyssa, and Talia, the amazonian woman rushed at her gothic-looking opponent. But much to the woman's shock, Talia seemed to vanish from her sight. The wizard couple stood back to back as they looked around for the gothic crusader. But what confused Natsu was that he couldn't smell his opponent.

"Now what made you think that invading our home was a remotely good idea?" Talia asked with her voice coming from all around them. "I thought wizards were supposed to be smart."

Talia teleported in between the two and threw another punch that Alyssa caught. "I got this, Natsu! Do what you need to!"

"Right!" The dragon-slayer said before running past the two. As he did, Talia disappeared again, and Alyssa braced herself again as Talia struck her in the shoulder before disappearing again.

Natsu, on the other hand, ran through the halls, following Fuyu's scent. He stopped in front of two large doors and sniffed. 'There you are.' He thought to himself before kicking the doors off their hinges. The doors landed on the far ends of the cathedral room. Kneeling in the center was Fuyu with the broadsword under her hands.

"So instead of escaping, you came to face me." The masked woman stated. "I don't know whether I'm surprised or disappointed."

Natsu said nothing as he glared at the kneeling woman. "Before I burn this damn place down to the ground, I have one question."

"And what would that be?" Fuyu asked as she stood up.

"What happened to Hoshi?"

Fuyu said nothing before turning around and facing her son, their black eyes locked towards each other.

"She perished in the fire that night." She said as she pulled her broadsword out of its sheath. "But what do you care? Until yesterday, you didn't even remember you had a family. So what does it matter if your sister was alive or dead?"

"I guess...I just needed some closure." The dragon-slayer said before slamming his fists together, causing a short burst of fire between them. He then started to suck in some air and readied one of his signature spells. "Fire Dragon Roar!"

But like Michael did before, Fuyu swung her broadsword down and separated the fire spell, causing it to smash into the other sides of the wall. Natsu then leaped at her with both his fists ignited, but she managed to block the attacks with the flat side of her sword. She then swung her blade in a horizontal line, of which Natsu jumped over and launched another Roar spell.

"Repel!" Fuyu proclaimed as she held out her left hand. And as soon as she did that, an orange hexagonal shield appeared in front of her and blocked the fire.

"Fire Dragon Wing Attack!" The dragon-slayer unleashed twin fire attacks at the crusader. She slashed the spell apart and tapped on the eye of her sword. The blade split into two and she aimed it at her younger opponent.

"Feel the Flames of Creation!" She chanted and aimed it at Natsu. An orange blast fired from the middle and blasted Natsu through the wall. She leaped through the new hole and swung at the dragon-slayer, only for him to evade by launching fire from his feet. The two continued to exchange and evade their attacks with fire and sword swings.

Back with Zeke and Effie, the brunette archer had managed to find cover behind a nearby corner. As he caught his breath, he listened to Effie's fast approaching footsteps.

"You know, the more about you guys, the more it becomes clear that you're all full of shit!" Zeke yelled before leaping out of the way of a barrage that blew a hole in the corner.

"Oh? And what makes you say that?" Effie said as she evaded a stream of arrows.

"You haven't reloaded your guns. At all." Zeke stated as he conjured up a shield spell to block the shots. "And you teleported away using enchanted stones. You and your friends are clearly using magic even though from what I can, you guys are a bunch anti-magic cultist nutjobs."

Effie stopped shooting for a second, only to giggle in amusement.

"And just what about that is so hilarious?" The archer asked.

"You've proven just how much your pagan arts has blinded you. You can't even tell the difference between your unholy practices and blessings from the Creator himself."

"And just who is this...Creator?"

Effie just shook her head as her giggling became full on laughter. "Your kind truly have strayed from the path! How could you have forgotten the being that breathed life into this barren world? The one who imparted the gifts of knowledge, love, and compassion back when humanity was in its infancy?"

Zeke raised an eyebrow in curiosity. His mind quickly thought back to the stories he had heard in his youth. Specifically…

"You're talking about a God."

"Oh! So you know the word for the Creator's species!" Effie said with glee.

"I also know that Gods don't exist." Zeke said with a glare. "They were just stories our ancestors created to explain what they could not understand."

"Blasphemy!" Effie exclaimed, finally displaying an emotion other than bemusement. "The Gods exist! Kreierung is proof of that!"

"Kreierung?" The archer said to himself. "Okay, now I know you guys are out of your gourds. Kreierung was the God of Destruction and War. So not only are you making innocent people suffer because of an outdated dogma, but your can't even get your mythology right!"

He then pulled on his string as a spiraling energy arrow was formed. "Arch Shot: Drill Arrow!"

With a quick spin, he fired his spell. Effie evaded the attack, but the spiraling magic tore up the bottom left portion of her dress.

"You…" The girl said with her body shaking. "YOU RUINED MY DRESS!"

The female brunette screamed her head off as she unleashed a massive barrage of bullets that Zeke blocked with his Shield spell.

'That's it. Lose your cool. Stop thinking clearly.' The green-eyed archer thought as he dropped his shield and leaped into the air, firing another barrage of magical arrows. The arrows pierced Effie's dress even more. And as she looked on in shock of her torn dress, Zeke quickly landed and charged, headbutting Effie in the process. And as soon as she was airborne, the archer readied his final spell, with electricity shooting around the green magic circle.

"Arch Shot: Demolition Arrow!" And with a final yell, Zeke unleashed a massive arrow that quickly hit Effie and blasted her through several walls. Whether she was dead or not, the archer didn't care. After all, he needed to make sure his friends were okay.

Speaking of friends, Alyssa was holding her arms up in a boxing stance as she was looking around the hallway for her opponent. Talia kept disappearing as soon as she landed a blow. And while Alyssa could take a punch, eventually, she would crumble from the continued assault.

'What's her secret? Teleportation? No, that's usually way more flashy. It can't be superspeed. I would be able to see her move with my slowed down perspective.' The orange-haired wizard thought to herself as her eyes darted around the room. 'So what is she doing?'

And once more, Talia appeared and socked her in the stomach. However, this time, Alyssa slowed down her perception to see just what happened. In a matter of seconds, she saw the two jewels inside Talia's gauntlets spark briefly before it quickly spread over her body and turning her invisible.

'So that's your secret!' Alyssa thought to herself with a smirk. 'She turns invisible! Well then, let's even the odds a bit.'

"Speed Queen: Tornado!" The purple-eyed woman quickly spun around, creating a powerful wind tunnel that spread through the hallway, blowing away portraits, pedestals, and a certain invisible crusader. Talia was blasted off the floor and impacted against the wall. Alyssa heard the sound of the impact and charged in that direction. "Speed Queen: Hundred-Strike Punch!"

And in a quick barrage, Alyssa had managed to hit her invisible foe a hundred times. And which her consciousness fading, Talia was rendered visible once more.

"Well, that was something." She said as she let the gothic crusader fall onto the floor. She then heard some shaking coming from the floors above her and a familiar roaring. "Natsu!"

And with that, she took off towards her boyfriend's location. In another part of the building, Lucy was turning around the corner and found a door with a large lock and chain around it. "Well, that looks important."

With a swing of her Celestial Arm, the blonde wizard sliced apart the lock and opened the door. And when she saw what was inside the room, her eyes widened in awe. Sitting on the shelves were thousands of Transport Stones, various weapons and a large green crystal formed out of the floor.

"Jackpot!" Lucy cheered to herself as she started to load a bunch of Transport Stones into her spare key pouch that she keep on hand for emergencies. She then looked upon the large crystal, tilting her head as she examined it. "Well, my gigantic shiny friend, let's figure out what you are."

The blonde wizard pulled out one of her silver keys and swung it in front of her. "Open, Gate of the Southern Cross - Crux!" And out of the gate came another bizarre-looking spirit. His head was a big silver cross with golden markings at each point. This made his body look even lankier in comparison as he floated in the air. And to complete the cross motif, two white crosses made of nose hair were sticking out of his nostrils.

"Grandpa Crux, I need you to search something for me." Lucy said to the seemingly sleeping Celestial Spirit. She then pointed to the large crystal. "What is this thing?"

With his eyes still closed, Crux's headed titled up and down. The cross-shaped spirit kept snoring for a bit. And soon enough, his eyes opened and he gave out a loud, "YAHOOOOO!"

"You found something?"

"Indeed." The old spirit stated. "The crystal before us is an Etherion crystal."

"But it's the wrong color." Lucy stated. "Etherion crystals are usually blue."

"Hmmm. It does seem odd." Crux replied. "Perhaps whoever forged the crystal tampered with its properties during the forming stage."

Lucy thought about this for a minute before hearing the sound of metal tapping against stone. "Little girls shouldn't sneak around."

The Celestial Wizard and Spirit turned to see Gerome walking into the room.

"You're that wizard-slayer guy." Lucy said as she grabbed her Celestial Arm. Crux, on the other hand, looked over the armored man before grunting.

"Gerome Whitaker. Wanted in Dias for the murder of thirty-seven wizards. Six of whom were Celestial Wizards." The cross spirit stated, making Lucy widen her eyes in shock. The aforementioned man looked at the keys on Lucy's belt and smirked.

"Looks like I'll have some new additions to my collection." The man stated before reaching into his armor. What he pulled out was a necklace with twenty-three different keys. One gold key, a red key, seventeen silver keys, and much to Lucy's surprise, three green keys. But there was no time to ask about that as Gerome grabbed the massive ax from his back.

"Not a chance." She stated, holding her sword out as Crux returned to the spirit world. "You're not getting any of my keys."

"That's what they all say." The mustached man stated as the two began their battle.

In another part of the building, Natsu and Fuyu had crashed through the walls of the building's cafeteria, scarring a few grunt crusaders who were eating. The salmon-haired man unleashed another Roar spell, which Fuyu leaped out the way. She then used a table as a springboard and launched at her foe, but Natsu managed to jump away from the moving blade. Growing tired of the constant attack and retaliation, Natsu decided to ramp things up.

With a roar, azure fire burst around him, pushing Fuyu back.

"Fire Dragon Iron Fist!" Natsu yelled as he ignited his fist and blasted forward towards Fuyu.

"Repel!" The masked woman shouted, conjuring up another shield to protect herself. But this time, the shield was no good as Natsu's attack went through, smashing both the shield and Fuyu's mask. The impact of the attack smashed her through several tables.

Fuyu groaned as she back up, blood streaming down from her lip. She looked and saw Natsu walking towards her, azure fire blazing around him and his eyes filled with hatred and anger.

"You're as monstrous as the rumors said." Fuyu said as she used her sword keep herself up.

"Said the kettle to the pot." Natsu growled as he cracked his neck.

'If this keeps up, I'm going to die.' Fuyu thought to herself as Natsu approached her. Her mind thought back to a particular moment that defined her life. The screaming. The pain. And the method that caused all of the suffering. 'No! I am not going to die! I have a mission! And I will finish it no matter what!'

"Mighty Creator, hear my prayer." Fuyu started to chant as she held her sword to her face. "Take this mortal body as your just arbiter. Smite those who would deny your will!"

The eye on the sword's pommel started to glow a bright orange, which blinded Natsu.

"Divine Armament!" The light began to grow more intense, and the building began to shake from a massive influx of energy. The light eventually faded, and Natsu looked once again.

Fuyu entire body had become covered in black and white armor. The only spot open was the top that let her hair flow free (her hair had also become dark orange). Her faceplate consisted of solid blue glass that covered her eyes. But the most noticeable trait of the new armor was a golden eye resting on her forehead. And what freaked Natsu the most was that the eye blinked and Fuyu's breathing had slowed down.

"What the hell is…" But before the dragon-slayer could finish his sentence, Fuyu had punched him clear through four walls. Still airborne, Natsu blasted fire from his feet and ignited his fist. The now armored Fuyu leap towards the dragon-slayer with orange energy surrounding her gauntlet. The two attacks collided and struggled for a breath second before Fuyu's attack overpowered his, letting her smash him through the floor. And before Natsu could get back up, the armored woman landed on his stomach, causing the dragon-slayer to cough up blood.

"I will finish what I started." Fuyu said with an altered voice. With an armored hand, she grabbed hold of Natsu's throat and began to squeeze. To save himself, fire started to blaze all over Natsu's body. However, this did nothing to the armored woman.

"Hands off!" In a flash, Fuyu was bodychecked into a wall by Alyssa. The speed wizard turned down to her boyfriend and helped him up as he caught his breath.

"Thanks." He said as he saw Fuyu get back from the rubble.

"Who's that?"

"Fuyu." Natsu stated as he got back into a fighting stance. Alyssa raised an eyebrow at this but had no time to react as Fuyu charged at them once again, forcing them to dodge another energized attack. The amazonian woman charged at her armored opponent with a spell ready.

"Speed Queen: Vibration Punch!" But much to her shock, Fuyu managed to catch to attack and slam Alyssa into the ground. She attempted to stomp on the younger woman, but she quickly sped out of the way. Natsu then unleashed a Wing Attack spell, but Fuyu conjured up two shields to block the attacks. Alyssa then charged at her with a burst of super speed, but Fuyu managed the attack. The two woman proceeded to rush and retaliate at inhuman speeds. As the two clashed, Natsu started preparing one of his most powerful spells, slamming his fist together as a massive blue magic circle appeared behind him.

"The flames in my right hand and the flames in my left!" He chanted as two powerful fires appeared in both his hands. "Put the two together…" He then slammed the flames together over his head, forming a massive azure fireball. "AND THIS IS WHAT YOU GET!"

As he did this, Fuyu had finally managed to find an opening and uppercut Alyssa into the next floor. With all of his anger, Natsu leaped into the air above the armored woman.

"FIRE DRAGON BRILLIANT FLAME!" The salmon-haired dragon-slayer threw the massive fireball down at his foe. Fuyu raised a full shield around herself, but the shields shattered from the massive power and fireball consumed her. The fireball then exploded into a pillar that shot through the roof of the headquarters that was seen for miles.

Back in the cell block, the roof shook from the powerful spell. Gale covered her head in fear from the shaking while the being in the next door cell looked up in confusion. However, as its head was up, it noticed something. A small hole had opened right above its cell door.

"Finally." The being said with a smirk.

Back at the battle, Alyssa had managed to get back up and saw the smoke left over from Natsu's attack.

"Is she dead?"

"She has to be." Natsu growled as he finally had a chance to wipe the blood from his mouth. The two looked at the smoke and heard something that sounded like growling and moaning at the same time. Suddenly, Natsu's nose picked up a new scent of sulfur and saw an orange light start to glow brighter in the smoke. On a gut instinct, the two leaped out of the way as an orange blast shot past them. Fuyu emerged from the smoke, soot covering her armor and the burnt parts slowly healing up. The eye on her forehead started to glow before launching another beam that the two wizards dodged. The armored woman turned to the still evading Alyssa and readied another eyebeam attack. However, this attack was stopped as a green magic arrow pierced the eye, causing an explosion feedback that knocked Fuyu away.

"So…" Natsu and Alyssa turned to see Zeke emerged from a hole in the wall with his longbow out. "Anyone want to explain who the hell is that?"

"Apparently, that's Fuyu." Alyssa said as the aforementioned armored woman got back up, the orange eye on her forehead healing up with a sickening sound. "Gross."

Fuyu looked at the trio with her breathing slowed down.

"Well, this is gonna be fun." Zeke groaned as he readied another spell.

Meanwhile, Lucy was tossed through a wall and rolled onto the group. As she coughed from the dust and groaned from the pain, Gerome stepped through the hole with his ax slung over his shoulders.

"You Celestial Wizards are all the same." The mustached man taunted as he looked down at Lucy, who managed to get back up. "You rely on others to fight your battles for you."

The two foes then heard shaking coming from the upper levels. "At least your comrades are putting up a fight. But you? You're pathetic."

In anger, Lucy swung her whip sword at her foe, but he managed to smack the blade away with his armor gauntlet.

"Why don't you just summon one of your servants? They'd probably give me an actual challenge."

And this was the pickle Lucy was in. Most of her golden spirits were unavailable at the moment. Hell, Loki was still in the middle of recovering his full strength. There was only one Celestial Spirit she could call, and she would pretty much be useless if she were summoned.

But as the blonde woman evaded a swing from Gerome's ax, another opinion came to mind. She quickly swung her whip sword and cut through two support beams, causing the floor above to collapse on top of Gerome. However, she knew that was only a temporary solution since the debris was already starting to shake. Acting quickly, Lucy pulled out one of her eyes and closed her eyes.

"Aquarius, please lend me your strength."

A transparent image of the blue-haired mermaid appeared next to the blonde girl. "Tch. Whatever."

The mermaid spirit vanished before Lucy opened her eyes and the hidden key slot on her hilt opened up. She quickly inserted the key and turned the key as a blue magic circle appeared behind her. The segmented parts of her blade split apart and started to float around the magic circle. As Gerome emerged from the pile, Lucy thought back to what Alexander said before. And a name came to her mind as she aimed her hilt at the large man, the floating pieces beginning to glow with golden energy.

"Meteor Blitz!" And with that name, the segmented pieces blasted off towards the axe-wielding man.

"What the deuce?!" Gerome exclaimed as he swung his weapon, seemingly deflecting the blades. However, Lucy quickly swung her hilt down, controlling the bladed segments to do the same, cutting through several parts of the mustached man's armor. And with a furious yell, the blonde wizard swung the hilt around frantically, causing the segments to swarm and attack like a horde of bees. When the attack finally ended, Gerome's armor fell off in cut segments and blood shot out from various cuts all over his body. "Well...played."

The large crusader fell over, and his necklace of keys fell off his neck (the string had been cut during the attack). Lucy's Celestial Arm recombined as the blonde girl picked up the Celestial Keys. She pocketed the keys before hearing the rumbling sounds coming from upstairs.

'What's going on?' She asked herself as she looked up at the roof. Deciding to take a shortcut, Lucy grabbed one of the Transport Stones and thought of Alyssa. And in a flash of light, the blonde girl was teleported into the same room her friends were at.

"Lucy?" The girl turned and saw a bruised and bloody Zeke inside a crater while Natsu and Alyssa (who was in her Overclock form) were trying their best to hold off the still-armored Fuyu. Alyssa's right arm was dangling in a way that suggested that it was dislocated while Natsu had blood coming down over his left eye.

"What's going on?" The girl asked in fear as she helped Zeke up.

"Do you have the Stones?" He asked.

"Y-ya, but what about…" Lucy asked as she pulled another charged stone out.

"I'll explain when we're not about to die." Zeke said before turning to his friends. "Natsu, Alyssa! We're leaving!"

"But I…" Natsu said as he was forced to evade another eyebeam.

"No buts! We can't win at this rate!" The archer said. Natsu growled before looking at Alyssa. The two nodded and decided to provide themselves a distraction and charged at Fuyu.

"Fire Dragon Iron Fist!"

"Speed Queen: Vibration Punch!"

The couple managed to punch the armored woman through a wall, given them a moment to escape. The two rushed to Zeke and Lucy, and the four of them placed their hands over the stone.

'Gale.' The four of them thought and were teleported into the winged woman's cell.

"What the…"

"No time to explain!" Alyssa quickly stated. "Just place your hand over ours and think of Ven!"

Not wanting to spend another second in this damned place, Gale did just that. As soon as the five thought about the same person, they vanished in a flash of green light. The five then reappeared in a forest and landed on their backs, which was more painful to some than others.

"Natsu…" Zeke groaned in pain from his injuries as Alyssa's Overclock mode ran out. "Your mom's a bitch."

"Tell me something I don't know." The dragon-slayer as he wiped the blood from his forehead.

"GUYS!"

"MOMMY!"

The five turned and saw Happy and Ven running towards them with tears in the eyes.

"Ven!" Gale said before flapping her wings quickly and embracing her son in a hug. "I was so worried! Are you…"

"I'm fine, Mom." Ven cried out, savoring the warmth of his mother's hug. "Alyssa and the others protected me."

With tears in her eyes, the winged woman turned towards the wizards (who were attempting to calm the worries of their feline friend) and smiled.

"Thank you." She said with all the gratefulness in her body, getting their attention. "Thank you so much."

"No need to thank us." Alyssa said with a groan as she relocated her right arm. "It's what we do."

Natsu thought back to the revelations he had experienced over the last few hours. And while a lot of this was devastating for the dragon-slayer, the sight of Ven and Gale tearfully embracing was enough to bring a small smile to his face.

And then…

Dear Mom,

The last few weeks have been crazy. Even by Fairy Tail Standards. On our way to bring Ven back to his home, we were attacked by an anti-magic cult calling themselves the Holy Crusaders. Apparently, they worship an old god of creation (or god of destruction according to Zeke) called Kreierung, and they think that magic and anything related to magic is evil. But considering what we saw, I'm starting to think there's something else going on with these creeps.

Anyway, the Crusaders kidnapped Natsu, but Zeke, Alyssa and I were able to break into their headquarters. But it was there we learned something horrible; the leader of the cult was none other than Natsu's mother, Fuyu. There's a lot to unpack about that, but I'll save that for another letter.

We managed to escape the base with Ven's mother Gale (she had later explained that they had captured her when she went looking for Ven) more than a little worse for wear. Fuyu had transformed into some kind of armored form. And apparently, this turned her into a real monster that could withstand Morningstar's strongest spells. Thank the Celestial King we got out of there when we did.

So after reuniting Ven and his mother, we've spent the last two weeks licking our wounds and making our way to the Fianna Mountain Range. Eventually, we reached Ven and Gale's settlement thanks to their directions. The chief of their tribe gave us his gratitude and let the five of us rest in the village for three days. After resting up and restocking our supplies, we started our journey back to Magnolia.

But before we left, Ven called out to Alyssa and asked if he could join Fairy Tail when he was older. Of course, Alyssa smiled back at the kid and said that he and her mother would always be welcomed at Fairy Tail.

As I'm writing this letter, we're about halfway through the Northern Woods and setting up camp for tonight. Natsu's been uncharacteristically quiet for the last week. Not that I blame him. Sure, he still smiles whenever one of us makes a joke, but you can tell that he's thinking about his past. Thankfully, Alyssa's been comforting him whenever he started to get depressed. Zeke has been scratching his head trying to figure out what Fuyu's transformation was. Happy's been his usual chipper and slightly annoying self, but you can tell he's worried about Natsu.

As for me, I've been going back and forth on whether or not I should make contracts with the new Spirits I took from the Crusader called Gerome. Of course, I'm leaving the red key for Alexander, but I'm hesitating on making contracts with the Silver or Gold Key Spirits. The last thing they probably saw was their Celestial Wizard being killed by that maniac. Plus, there're the green keys that I have no clue about.

Anyway, it's my turn to make dinner, so I'm going to wrap this up real quick. I'll be sure to write to you again once we make it back to Magnolia.

Love, Lucy.

Epilogue:

As the sun was setting on a sandy shore, the being that had escaped from the Crusaders' headquarters was feasting on a beached whale. It's misty hands held up the meat before it started to consume it with its knife-like teeth.

"Fascinating." The being turned and saw a blue-haired man wearing a hood approached him.

"Get your own meal." The being growled, glaring at the man with its blood-red eyes. "This is mine."

"No worries, friend. I already had dinner earlier." The man replied, raising his head to reveal a dark red tattoo that covered the right side of his face and his blue hair.

"Who are you?" The being asked before chomping down on more raw meat.

"A servant of your creator." The blue-haired man answered. Hearing this made the being stop his feasting and turn to face the man. It looked over the man with its blood-red eyes before giving off a sinister smirk.

"So you are." The being said before getting up and holding its hand out. "You got a name, stranger?"

The blue-haired man smirked as he shook the creature's hand. "Jellal. And I think you and me are going to get along just fine, Shadowman."

Author's Note 2: Ho boy, there's a lot to unpack with this chapter.

1). The Old God thing - When demons and celestial spirits existing, I had a feeling that unless they have evidence of a god, a lot of people wouldn't believe in them.

2). Gerome and the Green Keys - I wanted to create a recurring villain for Lucy. That's it.

3). Fuyu's armored form - I'll save the explanation for another time.

4). The Shadowman - Yes, we finally get a look at the monster that killed Alyssa's family and her primary nemesis. Also, see if you can guess what makes the Shadowman so feared.

As for that special announcement, here's what it is: this is the final chapter of Fairy Tail: A New Day. But this isn't the end of Team Morningstar's adventures.

You see, as I've experienced myself, jumping into a fifty plus chapter story can be daunting. And considering that there will be more than a hundred chapters in this universe (you read that right), I've decided to take a seasonal approach to this story. Also, this means that I finally have a completed story (even if it is a Part One thing)!

So for those of you who have alerts or are following my Author profile, keep an eye out for the sequel to Fairy Tail: A New Day! Trust me; it'll be worth the wait!

Thanks to everyone who's been favoriting, reviewing, and following not only FT: AND, but all of my other stories too. You guys are awesome!

So until next time, please remember to read, write and review. See ya next time!
