Hey fairy tail fans, and here it is the next chapter of the friendship, family, love, and the Fairy tail. I want to say that I have seen your request, but I decided to do something else here. I promise to get to them eventually, well, college and all that, so story content will start to slow a bit until I have an excellent long-term break. but I may be able to crank out the one-shot here now and then, so anyway, let's began

title: Family

Summary: fairy tail has always relied on their strongest team, even in the darkest times. They always seem to be able to pull through if it meant protecting their friends and family. and while they're away on a mission to help Lucy with her rent, the rest of the fairy tail guild decides to throw a party to thank them for their efforts

paring: fairy tail family


Mira sighed as she watched Elfman and Lissanna try to hang up the sign letting a sigh as her siblings each tumbled over the ladder "a little more to the left," she shouted to them as they attempted to move the sign.

"be careful big brother Elf," Lissanna shouted as Elfman pulled the sign "we don't want to rip the sign again," she told him this was the third one. She would be damned if she was making another one cause of her brother's clumsiness. As she shifted, she leaned back to get a good look. The sign read, 'thank you for everything' "it's all done, sis."

"good," Mira called to her |come on down, and we can start making the food

"I see everything going well right here," a voice called Mira turned to see master Makarov behind her; he smiled as Mira gave a slight nod of her head.

"yep," she told him, "everything going smoothly," Mira said the wizard saint, "though I must say," Mira told him.

"Hmm," Makarov answered. "I'm just glad those brats went on a job," he said, "how'd you manage that."

"enough to pay rent is enough to get Lucy to drag Natsu out," Mira said. "I just had to make sure it was hard enough so the job would need the entire team," Mira told him, "though I'm surprised you're doing this master," Mira told him.

Makarov let out a sigh "tell me, Mira," Makarov asked her "how many times have they almost died" he asked as Mira made a frown on her face "no matter the challenge their always stepping up to the plate to defend this Guild to the very end" Makarov told her." A little appreciation goes a long way.

"I guess so," Mira said, smiling as she looked around the guild hallo as members returned gifts in hand for their strongest team; she smiled as her attention was caught on a flash of blond hair; looking over, she saw Laxus next to him was his fellow dragon slayer Gajeel 'I wonder what those two are doing' she thought.

Meanwhile, the dragon slayers in question looked at a timeline that the guild had made up for Natsu and his friends. It was an idea that Wakaba came up with, stating that they could go over old accomplishment from the past, which was a lot from their adventures on Galuna Island to their forming with Lullaby incident to the recent grand magic games and Grimore heart every event that fairy tails strongest team has been a part of was on the timeline

however, the duo in question had their eyes focused on two specific events, the phantom invasion, and the fantasia internet; it was a can of worms that they didn't want to open that, and well, Natsu's bragging could get a little out of hand, letting out a sigh Gajeel smiled "well" he muttered

"what" Laxus answered.

"feeling skittish thunderbolt," Gajeel asked, to which Laxus let out a slight chuckle.

"Maybe," he said, which shocked the iron dragon slayer; this guy was a far cry from the man he first met when he came here. "I guess in a way it's also showing how they've helped people grow during their time here," Laxus said

"I guess," Gajeel said, remembering his time in the Phantom lord. what he did to Levy to him, and Salamanders fight to joining the guild to all the adventures they had together

"I hope you two don't mind," Mira said, appearing behind them.

"it's fine," Laxus said, smiling "when you look at it, they helped us find a better path that day too," he said to Gajeel, who chuckled at the comment, nodded his head " they helped me get, I'm grateful."

"OH Laxus," Mira cued

"don't tell me I said that," he said,

"too late," Gajeel said. "Salamander's going to love that," he said, laughing as Laxus tackled him.

"oh no, ya don't tin can."

letting out a sigh, Mira walked away; everything was going well; they had enough food for the party even Natsu himself couldn't eat all that she hoped her heart skipped a beat at the name, shaking off her thoughts about the dragon slayer she saw Juvia putting up the finishing touches on the memorial section

"Everything okay here, Juvia," Mira asked.

"Yes," Juvia told her, "her Gray will be so happy when he sees this"

"I bet he will," Mira told her

soon the doors burst open as Max and Warren rushed in "they're here," they shouted, trying to catch their breath '. The town folk," Warren said, "are trying to slow them down," Max finished

"Alright, everyone," Makarov shouted, "you know the drill," he said, "remember Your positions, today we show our strongest team the love they need."

As everyone hidden away, they could hear the voices of Lucy and Natsu talking.

"I can't believe that job was a bust," Lucy moaned.

"man," Natsu's voice came over, "I thought it was a good one, sorry, Lucy."

"it's fine," Lucy told him.

"besides," Erza voice came over, "doing good deeds out of kindness brings good karma."

"if you say so, Erza," Wendy's voice said as they opened the doors, revealing a dark guild.

"Umm, what-" Gray started when the lights came revealing the whole guild as confetti shoot at them.

"SURPRISE," the entire guild shouted as the banner fell in front of them.

"what's all this" Erza asked

"and who's birthday is it," Natsu asked, confused.

"How could we forget," Happy said, panicking as Carla sat down from the jump scare she had just received.

"no birthday today, children," Makarov said, approaching them "today, we are just celebrating you and all your accomplishments over the years," he told them, smiling.

"oh, you guys didn't have to," Wendy said, "it's not like I've done much anyway," Wendy said, blushing.

"oh, come on, kid," Cana said, popping up, "you took out that face thing," Cana told her, "and not to mention you've done a lot since you been here."

"Yeah, kid," Natsu said, patting her head.

"hey," Cana shouted at Natsu, "today, we appreciate you, so none of that kindness is lifting spirits thing you like to do," she told Natsu as she glared at him.

"but"

"no buts, mister," Lissanna said as they pulled them down into the crowd and officially started the party.

"so, wait," Lucy said "you guys knew the job was fake," Lucy asked, glaring at Levy, who turned away laughing.

"I mean, we needed to get you guys out of the building," Levy told her, "besides, not like it affects your day," she said, her friend.

"Yeah, I guess," Lucy told her as she took a plate, "still kinda mad about it, though."

"never change, Lu," Levy muttered.

"wow, all these fish for me," Happy asked, sparkles in his eyes "thank you, thank you," he screamed as he ran up and hugged Lissanna, who laughs.

"of course," she said

"Gray," Juvia said, approaching the ice make wizard, " I made you something," she said, blushing as she handed him a card. Surprised by this, he smiled once he read.

"you know, Juvia," he smiled, "what you say we go out somewhere after the party," he said.

"really," Juvia shouted before she went on a frenzy, leaving Gray to let out a sigh 'never change Juvia,' he whispered as he watched jump for joy over her guildmates, who laughed. He looked over to see Wendy and Natsu eating more than humanly possible.

Natsu smiled as Mira brought him another plate 'so much for not eating everything,' Mira said to herself, 'didn't expect Wendy to go on a rampage to' she looked as they ate at almost the same rate "remember to chew you two" Mira told them.

"sorby Miva w jusht right luggage first cokeing" Wendy nodded alongside him, her mouth filled with food.

"swallow Natsu," Mira told him, hiding her laugh.

"hehehe," Natsu said as he swallowed an inhuman amount of food "sorry about that," he told her "we just really love your cooking Mira," he told her, causing the barmaid to blush a bit.

"oh, come on, Natsu," she said, turning away.

"he's right though your cooking amazing," Wendy said. "I could eat this all day."

Calming down a bit, Mira smiled at the pair. They were in sync as she laughed, giving off a wink "well, eat all you want as we said; today is about you guys."

"You didn't need to do this," Natsu said, "we're all family," he told her.

"yeah," Mira said, "but we just wanted to show our appreciation to members, who feel the need to get themselves almost killed a few times a month," she said teasingly.

"What is that supposed to mean," Natsu asked

Mira smiled as she walked away, "nothing."

Erza smiled as she helped herself to what she could only describe as the largest piece of strawberry cake she could see, and it was all hers looking over as she saw her teammates indulge in their rewards.

"thank you, master," Erza said

"I think we needed this," Erza told him. "After everything that's happened," she started until he stopped her.

"no need, my dear," he said, her smiling, "you and your team have done a lot; we as a guild felt you should be appreciated for it."

Erza smiled, "we only did because we had all of you at our backs. If anything, you all deserve this as much as we do."

"You could say that," Makarov said, laughing as Natsu stood up and shouted about fighting as he and Gajeel started a brawl, which then began to escalate as Gray got involved.

"yep," he whispered, "another day in the fairy tail family," he looked up and smiled.

Erza smiled, sure this party was for them, but all it did was remind the guild of the strong bond they had, stronger than any magic.

"Family"
