Someone asked last week, which arch in the Fairy Tail story, this story is taking place in. I can't remember if I mentioned it, so I will just mention it now, so people know. This arc is taking place RIGHT AFTER the GMG arc. Which means everything that happened after they left the capital, has not happened yet, or might never happen.

Another thing I will mention is more personal, so if you don't care and just want to read the chapter, ignore the next paragraph and start reading the chapter.

I have been having a rough few weeks, and while I have been trying to make sure it doesn't affect me uploading chapters for you guys, I can't guarantee that it might not in the future. The good thing is, that because of it being October, I will probably be in a relatively good mood, as I love Halloween and it is soon my birthday. But if I suddenly don't upload a week and I haven't told you that it wouldn't happen, please bear with me. Don't start writing to me about updating, as it will do more bad than good. Just trust me in the fact that I am trying to work with my problems. Thank you for listening.

Enough with that! Enjoy the chapter!

Last chapter:

"Now, children," he starts. "I know that I am asking a lot of you when I ask you to work together with these two. But we need all the power we can get, and it took me a lot of favours and connections to get these two here. So, I ask you to treat them as you would any other comrade. Or at least better than you would if I had not asked you this."

Without giving them any time to think about his words, he opened the door.

Midnight and Cobra walked through the door, looking smug.

And chaos ensued.

Present time:

Third POV:

Before anyone had time to comprehend what was happening, Erza had a sword pointed at Midnight and Cobra's throats. Even Cobra looked shocked, showing that he hadn't heard it coming from Erza's thoughts. Natsu started charging up his magic, readying himself to launch an attack on the two Dark Guild mages, while Lucy starred in slight fear. She remembered what had been done to her, by the orders of Midnight, known that time as Brain II. She could never forget that, and while being known as the forgiving Fairy of Fairy Tail, she didn't know if she could ever forgive him for what he did.

Jellal looked at the two Dark mages and could only feel sorrow. In his eyes, he did this to them. It didn't matter that he had been controlled, had been possessed at the time. He had made them into the people they were today. He could have saved them, but he made them stay in that cursed Tower of Heaven. Meredy saw the sorrow in his eyes and placed a hand on his shoulder, giving him a sad smile.

Nothing really happened, other than Cobra snorting, when he heard Natsu's thought about 'Wanting to punch that bastard to hard in his face, that he would break his neck.' After that snort, hell broke loose.

Natsu started charging at Cobra, with Laxus and Gray trying and slowly failing to hold him back. Lucy readied her keys, in case she needed to defend herself, while Jellal tried to convince Erza to remove the swords. Gajeel would have charged, wasn't he fighting through a rune barrier, that had quickly been put up by Freed. Said Rune Mage was trying to put one around Natsu, but he was moving too much for him to be able to set a proper barrier. Lisanna, Levi and Evergreen were yelling at the Dark Mages, with Mirajane trying to calm them down, unsuccessfully. Wendy was hiding behind Lucy, crying silently while remembering the way she was forced to use her powers for evil, by these two together with their Guildmates. Romeo was trying to console her, but because he didn't know what was wrong, it wasn't working. The Sabertooth Mages didn't know the Dark Mages enough to be wary of them. No, they were wary of the situation, making them tense. They weren't helping, but they were preparing to fight if they got attacked. And they thought their welcome was uncomfortable.

The wizards who had been waiting silently in the living room, out of respect for their guests, were now standing in the entry to the living room, looking on with curiosity and fear. Harry and Draco were looking on from the bannister on the second floor. Draco looked annoyed by all the noise, while Harry just looked mildly amused.

"SILENCE!" Makarov yelled, enlarging his hand and squashing Natsu, prompting the others to stop. Freed removed the rune barrier around Gajeel, seeing that he also had stopped and was looking at Makarov nervously. "I know a lot of you hate them, and for good reason," At this, he looked at Lucy, Erza and Wendy. Erza's brow twitched, Wendy looked down and Lucy winched while looking to the side. "But as I said, for this mission not to fail, we need all the power we can get. So, therefore, I have to do something I have never done to any of you before. I not asking anymore. I am ORDERING you all to forget your animosity for these two people, while we are in this universe. They will be your comrades and you will, therefore, treat them as comrades. I am not telling you to be their friends, for that would be too much to expect from you. But I will have no fighting amongst yourself, while we are here. Understood?" Everyone nodded, some more reluctantly than others. "Good! Now," Makarov turned his head up to the second floor, meeting still amused eyes. "I believe I have yet to greet myself to one last person."

Makarov walked up the stairs, standing in front of Harry. He then held out his hand. "Hello, young lad. My name is Makarov Dreyar. Third, fifth and seventh Guild Master of Fairy Tail. I thank you for letting us stay in your home for the time being. And I apologize for any disturbance we may have or will cause."

Harry took his hand and shook it with a small smile. "It is nice to meet you Master Makarov. I am very impressed with you accomplishes. You magic really shines through, despite your age I might say, excuse me if it sounds rude. I hope you enjoy your stay, and please feel home. As long as you don't destroy anything, I will not be offended." Makarov nodded with a smile at the young man and walked down the stairs to his flabbergast children and allies. He grinned at them, before walking into the kitchen, ready to eat some breakfast.

The next day, the mages were once again up bright an early. Today, their lessons would start and they didn't really know what to expect.

Remus came into the kitchen, whilst they were eating and told them to follow him to the third floor. Harry's floor, as it was called by the Golden Trio (Hermine, Ronald and Ginny). To their surprise, they were led into a library which looked bigger than the entirety of the house. Lucy and Levi noticed quickly how some of the books were bound in chains and lock, while seemingly struggling to get free. Others were making sounds like groans, moans, cooing and hissing. The Dragonslayers noticed the smell from the books. They all seemed very old. Of course, they looked old two, but while they looked to be maybe a hundred years old, they smelled to be over a thousand.

"This is the Black library," Remus introduced. "It is the second biggest collection of books in the wizarding world, only trumped by the founder's private library, which we have long since lost the location of. As you might have noticed, some of the books are bound. Do not, under any circumstances, open those books. Only the Lord or stand-in Lord of House Black can open those, without there being consequences. And before you get any ideas, opening some of these books could kill you," he said, looking at Natsu who had been slowly moving towards a bound book on a table. He jumped away from it, scratching his neck nervously.

"In a moment your tutors will be here. While this is a new style of magic for you, you should theoretically be able to learn all of this relatively easily. But it will probably will easier for those of you, who use Holder magic since we wizards use wands to channel our magic, with only the either highly trained or powerful can use wandless magic, or what you would probably call Caster magic. Miss Granger will explain it more in depth when she arrives with the other."

After saying that, the door opened and the teens pilled in, with arms full of books and other stuff. Remus took out his wand and waved it, making all the books and equipment move out of their arms. The teens looked shocked for a moment, before looking at Remus sheepishly.

"Did you forget you have three people in your group, who can do magic outside of school?" Remus asked, looking at Charlie, Fred and George. All three smiled innocently at him.

"And why should we let all of them just be lazy, while we do all the work?" Charlie asked. Remus chuckled at that and placed all of the items on tables all around the library before turning to Hermione.

"Are you ready to take over from here?" He asked, in which she nodded. "Alright," he turned to the mages. "I will leave you in her very capable hands. I will be one of your instructors when you start doing the actual spellcasting." And with that, he left the library.

Hermione took a deep breath, before turning to look at the mages.

"Okay. You guys will be learning the magic you missed. Miss Marvell and Mister Conbolt will be entering the third year, which means you only have two years of magic to catch up on. This will still be hard. As for the rest of you. You will all be joining the seventh year with Ronal, Draco, Harry and me," she said.

"The subjects you will be learning are History of Magic, Arithmancy, Potions, Charms, Ancient Runes, Divination, Care of Magical Creatures, Transfiguration and DADA. Miss Marvell and Mister Conbolt will only be learning History of Magic, Potions, Charms, Transfiguration and DADA, as the other classes are electives they will start on in the school year," she paused to see if everyone was following, before continuing.

"I will be your tutor in History of Magic and Arithmancy. I will also be your tutor in Transfiguration together with Ronald. Other than that, he will be your tutor in Care of Magical Creatures together with his elder brother Charlie. Fred and George will be your tutors in Potions, together with Draco, who will also be your tutor in DADA. Harry might become you tutor in that if we can… convince him…" Hermione said uncertainly.

"Luna will be your tutor in Ancient Runes, Divination and Charms, where Ginny will be helping her in Charms. And as Professor Lupin told you, he will be here for when we start practising spellcasting, especially in DADA, since a lot of offensive spells will be taught there. Any questions?"

"A thousand hands raised, with Natsu shaking his frantically in the air. He looked very confused. Hermione sighed while thinking:

'This is going to be a very long day…'

Author note: IMPORTANT!

Atthe beginning of 2019, I will be writing on 'It Could Have Been True.' And since I will also have been writing on it in December, I am hoping to be able to finish it before March. And when I finish it, I will have to start on one or maybe two new fanfictions.

I have decided that I want to give you guys a chance to be in on the decision of what I should write next. Therefore, I have made a poll on my profile. In the poll, there are eight different options, where you will be able to vote on two options. In the end, the decision will be mine, but I might be influenced by what I can see is the more popular options. These stories are all stories I have been wanting to write for some time, but haven't since I want to finish with the ones I am writing on now.

On my profile, there are also descriptions of the different story options. That way, you will have an idea of what you are voting on.

So, if you want to be able to influence what I am writing next, please vote or else I will choose myself.

Have a nice week!
