In the training field, Wendy's body was tied all around a log, screaming at the top of her lungs. Hoping that someone would hear her, but she knew that it was no use. Carla was tied up next to her, for she was too tiny to fit. Grumbling under her breath, yet her mouth was covered with duct tape, Carla was demanding to be let go.

(Sheer coincidence, right?)

Knightwalker was pacing around the duo and smirking as she was drawing her sword to the young girl's neck. Waiting to slay her. Wendy was screaming until her throat hurts. Knightwalker drew her arm back to swing her sword, but her hand was hit by a pebble. Rubbing on her hand, she growls as she looks back and forth to see who threw the pebble.

"Leave that girl alone."

"Why should I? Who are you anyway?"

A teenage boy with brown spiky hair with dark eyes and tan skin jumps down from a nearby tree and growls at the bad girl. Smirking at the shinobi, she says, "Well, HEY there, Mr. Muscular Guy...How are you?"

"Don't fuck with my mind...I don't know who the hell are you...but I have enough sense that you're poison."

"And who are YOU to call little o' me poison?"

"A shinobi ready to take you away to prison..."

Wendy was too busy looking at the shinobi with admiration and developed a mini crush on the bad boy. Feeling surrounded, Knightwalker disappears. Looking back and forth, the boy growls and cuts the rope around Wendy and Carla. While he was cutting the ropes, the boy says, "So, girl. What's your name there?"

"Wendy...Marvell. And this is my cat, Carla."

"Hi. Loser."

"Carla! I'm sorry."

"No worries.", says the boy as he holds out his hand. Wendy blushes as she was nervous to take his hand. Grinning at her, the boy asks, "What's the matter? You ain't chicken, are you?"

"Uh...um. No. NO! I'm not. I'm just...um..."

"I'm messing with ya, kid. I mean...Wendy."

"Wh-what's your name...mister..."

"Mister? Girl, I ain't no mister! Heh-heh. Name's Konohamaru Saratobi."

Wendy waves at the teenage boy and thanks him for his help.

"Don't problamo, little girl."

She smiles and blushes. He was cute indeed. But he was older than her. She was twelve and he must be around fourteen or fifteen. She sighs at the thought of it. Everyone had a crush on someone. She didn't have anyone. She was too young. Only twelve. Which sucked, of course. Konohamaru was about to leave, but Wendy stop him and asks him how to get back to town. Konohamaru looks at the young girl and grins. Agreeing to help her out again. Wendy smiles. She wanted to get back to her friends, but she secretly wanted to know the boy some more.


"Wendy! Wendy….WENDY!"

"Natsu! She's not going to hear you!"

"Ain't my fault, Erza, that we've-I mean-YOU lost her!"

"I'VE lost her?! I'm pretty sure WE ALL lost her."

"Will you two stop arguing for once...? You're both giving me a headache."

"Shut it, Gray! You're just as annoying as your little friend here."

"Oh, please, Erza! I'm nothing like dear Grayson here!"

"Stop calling me Grayson!"

"Stop it, stop it, STOP IT!"

Lucy was yelling at her friends as she was covering her ears and whining.

"You guys should be ashamed right now! Blaming each other for Wendy's disappearance! Shouldn't we be looking for her instead of arguing? Come on, you guys..."

Erza, Natsu and Gray all hung their heads down and sulked. Their opposites were feeling sad as well, feeling bad that they couldn't help them find Wendy. Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other then sighed. Sai was drawing some type of bird and but stopped as he saw two people walking towards them. A boy and a girl with a white cat. It was THEM!

"Wendy!", screams Lucy as she runs to hug her friend but looks at the boy she was with. "Is this your new boyfriend or something, Wendy?"

She shivers and blushes as she denies her friend's allegations.

"N...no. He just saved me from Knightwalker."

"Oh, Konohamaru!", says Naruto as he high-fives his rival/little brother like figure. Konohamaru grins at his older brother and says, "It was nothing! You shouda seen it, big brother! I was awesome!"

"I'm sure you were."

"Yea...he was.", says Wendy, shyly.

"He certainly was."

Everyone stopped what they were doing and tried to see who said that. They saw Knightwalker, this time, dressed in Japanese attire. A black and brightly yellow colored kimono shirt and matching colored floral patterns on them with maroon leggings, which fitted her curves just right and black sandals. Natsu Dragneel nearly drops her jaw, but Erza aligns it back into place properly.

"Keep it together, dummy.", she whispers in his ear.

"I am together! I'm cooler than you, Erza."

"Do you want to get hurt today, asshole...?"

"I rather be beaten up by Luc here than you."

"Okay then."

Knightwalker comes close to Lucy with her sword in one hand and aims for her neck, but Lucy swift-kicks her and makes her fall. Using her Celestial Magic to her advantage, she upper-cuts Knightwalker, only wounding her for a moment before she bounced back to her feet.

Knightwalker grabs Lucy by the front of her shirt and cuts her face with a kunai in the back of her pocket. Feeling the blood with her fingertips, she nearly growls at the bad girl and says, "You'll pay for that!"

Natsu Dragneel grabs her by the waist, to keep her from getting hurt again.

"Natsu! Lemme go! Now!"

"No. She's too much for you."

"NATSU!"

She hits him in the gut ("OW!") and comes after Knightwalker again, grabs her by her long scarlet hair and pins her to the ground. Grabbing her trustworthy whip, she uses her Fleuve d'etoiles. Making a perfect mark, Knightwalker was exhausted.

Dragion was impressed with Heartfilia. Her bravery and determination. She has learned from Dragneel, of course. Him taking her under his wing and formed Team Natsu with Erza, Gray and Wendy. Along with Wendy's dear cat Carla, whom seemed to get on his nerves with her sarcasm but Happy seemed to have a thing for her (God knows why).

"Give it up, Knightwalker.", says Dragion. "You're beat...! Lucy beat you! Now let these boys go and o back to the hellhole you came from...!"

Knightwalker, impressed with his cockiness, walks towards the shy boy and kisses his cheek.

"Well, that was fun while it lasted, right? Of course, my dear Natsu...but...you don't know me."

She runs away and grabs Naruto by the front of his jacket and stabs him with her sword. He was grimacing in pain as he was falling to his knees and clutching to his gut. Erza falls to his side and Sakura said, "Naruto...get on your back. I'll heal you, okay? Lemme heal you."

He nods to her as he gets on his back and lets her unzip his jacket use her Healing Jutsu on his gut. He was grimacing in pain as he was smiling at the pink-haired kunoichi.

Sakura...thank you.

Erza was looking at her go to work. Impressed with her medical skills. How does she do it? She wanted to ask her, but was so cocky and arrogant that she refused to ask such a pitiful and babyish question to such a child who was nothing but a mere peasant compared to her. Size wise, actually.

His wound was slowly healing, but he still feels the pain. Sasuke, on the other hand, wouldn't let that one slide.

Sasuke bear-hugs the opposite Erza and yells at her for stabbing his...friend.

(Actually, he uttered the word 'friend'. He didn't consider him a friend. More of a nuisance. But he was more like of a brother to Sasuke. A brother that he needed. Not like a replacement for his older brother, Itachi. But something more.)

Knightwalker was squirming in Sasuke's arms, but he knew that he couldn't let her go. Not at all. For Naruto's sake.

After Sakura was all done healing up the blonde knucklehead, she hugs him and cries in his shoulders. Naruto was shocked at her. More than Erza, who was forced to watch.

"Thank you, Naruto. You really are a good friend...", Sakura manages to get our of her mouth.

"You...are welcome, Sakura."

Sasuke was struggling to contain Knightwalker, but Dragion decided to be brave for once in his life and help contain Knightwalker along side Sasuke with Gray Fullbuster.


After Erza Knightwalker was arrested in Edolas, the opposites of our Earthland heroes decide it was best to go home and relax. Dragneel thanks Dragion for his help and bravery and gives him his signature smile, showing his spiky teeth. Dragion shows his teeth as well as he tries to smile at him.

Team Natsu decide to walk around Konoha for a while before heading home to Earthland to relax. Natsu decides to separate himself from the group and explore on his own before being chased by Lucy and Carla. Erza and Gray thanked Team Seven for their help as they hugged and said their goodbyes.

Erza and Gray both decide to walk along together, to get away from Natsu's chaotic nature. As they try to explore, they saw Wendy kissing Konohamaru! The two snuck back away from them, as though not to disturb them.

"Wendy's got a boyfriend.", whispers Erza as she walks with Gray.

"Yeah.", says Gray in his normal voice. "You know we're far away from them now."

"I know! I'm being cautious!"

"Now you're yelling."

She growls but doesn't let Gray's ignoramus-like nature get into her head so easily.

Erza was feeling so out of place in her large gray t-shirt and knee cut skinny jeans while Gray was shirtless and wearing black cameo pants.

(No surprise.)

"You're pretty when you're angry."

"Stop it, you perv."

"I'm serious."

"I'm serious too."

Gray grabs a hold of her hips and rests his head on her shoulder.

Erza was really feeling nervous now. What were his intentions?

He kisses her neck and cheek. Erza didn't want it, but she didn't stop him.

"Are you..."

"If that's okay with you, Erza. I love you."

"No. No, it's not. I want to be alone right now."

"Alright."

Natsu spots the two and tells them that they need to go home because he was tired and hurt from Lucy bonking him on the head. They manage to grab Wendy and Carla and they all manage to learn how Knightwalker managed to get here to Konoha and went home to Earthland. Home. Where they belonged.

Erza couldn't help herself but to think of Naruto. Lucy was thinking about Sasuke as well. But they didn't care. They had Natsu and Gray to be there for them. Even thought they were both idiots. They loved them anyway. It was better that way. Both ways.

The End!
