Hey, im back for another chapter. I don't really have anything to report so let's just dive Right in.

No Ones P.O.V.

Panther Lilly and the other exceeds used their wings to fly up to the ship Hades was currently stationed at. Once they got there, they went up into the air ducts. The one in front was happy following Carla, pantherlilly, and Marie.

"What do you see, happy?" Marie asked him. He looked down at the vent he was hovering over. There wasn't anything there.

"Nothing yet...Lilly, what exactly are we looking for?" Happy sceptically asked him. They've been crawling for some time now with no luck finding anything but soldiers running back and forth below them and just more dust bunnies around them.

"A heart. When you see a heart, stop. That's where we need to be." He gave no other explanation then what he just told them.

"What's so special about this heart?" Carla whispered behind her. She was curious and his vague answer didn't do her any justice.

"This heart isn't any ordinary heart. This is Hades heart and I'm almost positive that his heart is the source if his magic. We need to destroy the heart in order to defeat him. If we don't find it in time, I don't doubt the others would die." The others were shocked at this news.

"What do you mean they'll die, natsu could beat him one-on-one even without us breaking this heart." Happy whispered yelled back. Pantherlilly sighed.

"It's good to have faith in our comrades, but Hades is the by far the most powerful foe we have fought so far. I'm sure even gildarts would have a tough time beating Hades. It wouldn't be wise to underestimate the power of that man." Pantherlilly scolded. He wanted happy to be aware of the real danger of the others fighting Hades. He shouldn't get his hopes too high if they didn't find the heart.

"Unfortunately, pantherlilly is right, happy. Before we came up here, I saw Lucy's face and actions. She was scared. She doesn't scare easy at these kinds of things, but I truly feel she was terrified of the fight." Marie was close to tears as she told this. Lucy always had a confident composure with any enemy she faced. This fight was horrifying if Lucy was scared.

"No!" Their eyes widened. Happy turned to face them, fresh tears streaming down his face. "I don't...believe you. Natsu and the others will beat Hades with or without our help. I always put all my faith in him and I don't plan to change that. I know Hades is powerful, I know this, but with everyone's combined powers and determination i know they'll win."

"Happy..." Carla said, astonished. He turned around and kept crawling. They followed him and said nothing to each other for minutes. Happy then suddenly stopped. Carla bumped into his behind as did pantherlilly with Carla and Marie with pantherlilly. Happy slowly, but menacingly turned to pantherlilly with a glare slapped on his face.

"Carla bumped into my behind so you must of gotten a face full of her cushy tooshie..." Pantherlilly looked at him in confusion.

"Ah!" Carla made a noise of offense. Her cheeks producing a light dusting of pink on her cheeks.

"We don't have time for this nonsense." Pantherlilly said, his voice direct. Marie realized what they were talking about because she bumped into pantherlilly's behind.

"Humph, I didn't know you had a thing for her too, Lilly." Jealousy thick in her words. Pantherlilly's eyes widened.

"Not you too! I'm not in love with Carla, okay?" Marie didn't seem to believe him, but let it go.

"Why are we stopped anyway?" Marie asked, quickly changing the subject at hand. Happy made a noise and turned his attention below him.

"Think I found this heart you keep talking about." He kicked open the attachment on the air duct. He used his wings to the floor giving thumbs up to Carla who told the others it was safe to come down. As they came down, gaurds suddenly spotted them.

"Oh no." Happy feared, shaking as they ran up to them.

"Hey! It's those cats, get them!" A guard said to several others. They ran up to them quickly, but pantherlilly transformed into his bigger self just as quick. He used his sword to block the attack of ths other guards.

"Mfff, stay back guys. I have this."

"But you're hurt!" Marie protested. He turned back to her and smiled confidently, but sighed.

"You're just as stubborn as Lucy. Trust me, I'm all good." Luckily for pantherlilly, the guards were weak and there wasntw very many. He defeated them pretty quickly and made sure to be as quiet so not to attract more attention and more unwanted company. Once he finished, he got down on one knee and panted heavily. He was still tired from his fight with azuma.

"I told you! You're still weak!" Marie ran up to him and he transformed back to his smaller form. He pat Marie on the head as a form of affection. Marie felt her face heat, good thing she had fur. Happy didn't seem pleased, but didn't say anything about it.

"Look..." Carla had the others turn to what she was gazing at. Hades heart was huge, enclosed in a tank full of water. The heart took up almost half of the room so they were surprised they didn't notice the size earlier. Happy flew up and looked down at the others.

"Ready?" He was determined to save natsu and all of his friends. They all flew up next to him and smiled.

"We wouldn't be here I'd we weren't." Marie commented. They gave each other one last look before full on charged at the heart's tank. Happy and pantherlilly went head first as Marie and Carla used their feet to kick. They all used max speed and effectively broke the glass. Water in the tank spilling all over the floor. They all landed slowly and high-fived each other in victory.

"We did it! Let's go back tot he others and see if they won." Happy cheered and swiftly left the room with the others close on his tail

Now...

"And that's what happened." Marie told Lucy and cana. Lucy nodded in satifacsation. She picked up Marie and hugged her tight.

"If it wasn't for you guys, we'd be dead. I need to thank the others later too. By the way, is pantherlilly okay?" Marie glanced around and chuckled.

"Yup." She pointed at gajeel tightly hugging pantherlilly as he was softly pushing him away with a small smile in his face.

"My cat!" Gajeel wailed in happiness. It was cutely pathetic in Lucy's eyes. She smiled softly at the two. She then glanced at gildarts and saw him sitting next to laxus.

"You got banned? Ha, what an idiot!" He made an amused face at laxus.

"Shut up old man!" Laxus shot back. He got up and went to lisanna when he noticed her. "You actually here or am I going crazy?" He grabbed her cheeks and spread thsm, playing around with her.

"Of course I'm here!" She tried to get him to stop pulling at her cheeks when Mira came up to laxus, she was looking at him in intensity as he stood up and looked at her. The tenstion between the tow made lisanna scurry away in fear. Mira held her gaze with him for a few more seconds until she eventually giggled softly.

"He's right you know." Laxus made a face.

"Who?"

"Gildarts is...you really are an idiot." She saw him in irritation and decided it was time for a hug. He made a grunt of surprise as she embraced him. He could feel some eyes on him, but decided to ignore them. "You were a selfish jerk to everyone...you hurt so many people in our guild, including me and your own team..." Laxus was about to say something when she silenced him. "But I can't help but forgive you. You helped save team natsu and I feel without you, they might not be here." Tears welled in her eyes. He grunted once more.

"Don't cry, Mira. I know I've been horrible and I've had time to think over it all." She looked up to him and he smiled sincerely. Everyone gushed at the moment which ticked off laxus. "What are all of you staring at? Mind your business." Everyone shivered and looked away. Lucy looked at cana and went to place a hand on cana's shoulder and helped her stand up.

"I think it's time." She clenched her fist, tears already starting to fill her eyes. She did nod though and they followed natsu, gildarts, and happy. They went to go cool off and go fishing. They made sure to take their time in following them so it could give cana time to think over what she was going to say to the guy. Lucy and cana stoodcans stood behind a tree and watched them fish for a good twenty minutes before walking up to gildarts.

"C-Can we talk?" She stuttered, totally sober this time. Lucy came out and grabbed natsu and happy and pulled them away.

"Hehe, don't mind us." She took them and hid behind the tree to watch the scene unfold.

''What's going on?" Natsu asked in curosity as he watched Lucy watch cana.

"Gildarts is cana's dad, now be quiet, I wanna watch." Natsu and happy gasped and watched cana and gildarts closely.

"Do you...do you want to know why I joined fairy tail?" Cana asked gildarts. He scratched his head in confusion but agreed anyway.

"Sure, why?"

"To find my dad. I heard he was a member of fairy tail. I left to find h after my mother had passed away. The thing was, he was always going on missions so I never got a chance to tell him anything. Recently I've thought it was best he never knew. I promised myself I would tell him if I became an S-class mage and if I didn't, I would leave this guild. My plans didn't go as I planned since the whole Grimoure Heart incident, but I feel it's time I told him."

"Well, what's his name?"

"Gildarts..." His eyes widened as he looked at her, astonished that she said he was her father.

"Oh God which one was your mother? Sarah? Naomi? Clare? Fina? Mary? Liza?" He fell to his knees and began to mutter. "Oh no, the hair color is all wrong! Emma? Lila? Jenny? Sydney? Kate? The Yuko sisters?"

"Sisters? Just how many women have you been with?!" She have him a spimy tooth glare and began to yell.

"No, silvia, she always made that face!"

"Seriously! I told you this and now I find out that my dad is only a dead beat that can't keep it in his pants?!" Cana groaned in annoyance. She was about to walk away. "It doesn't matter anyway, don't worry, I won't move in or anything! Hate to ruin your game. Just act like nothing happened-" gildarts began to hug her.

"You're Cornilia's girl aren't you?"

''please let go..." Cana was close to tears as she could hear gildarts breath on the crown of her head.

"Why did you take so long to tell me?"

"Not sure, maybe I was just scared."

"You know, she was the only women I truly loved. We were going to get married." Cana started to cry as gildarts tightly embraced her, his own tears streaming down his face. Behind the tree, Lucy, natsu, and happy were all crying tears of joy. The moment was perfect.

They heard a piercing roar.

Hope you enjoyed that. I was happy to write some gildarts and cana. I also liked giving laxus and Mira a small part because I really adore the ship.
