NYA! The wedding! Yippee! I wonder what Makarov has to say…? Well, you better figure out in this! :D Don't worry, there isn't any fighting. Or is there?

Disclaimers: I do not own Fairy Tail or Hiro Mashima.

Claimers: I own Maemi, the priest, his hat, and Maemi's backstory.


The entire guild stared at their master in confusion. "Is something wrong Master?" Erza's strong voice rang out from all of the muttering of the guild. Master Makarov turned towards Erza, looking slightly drunken. "…You already had some alcohol didn't you, Master?" Erza put her hands on her hips.

"Hehe, you really know me, Erza!" The small old man laughed. "Now, can we skip all of the words and get to the kissy-wissy part?!" Makarov pointed at the priest, Elfman, and Evergreen. "I feel like the after party might be cancelled! Most of the adults are looking forward to it!"

"Uh… I don't think that is allowed, sir-!" The priest began to argue, but was taken back when the older, and much smaller man jumped onto his head, took the hat, and put it on. Maemi tried not to laugh at the drunk old man. Most of the guild laughed quietly.

"Yeah, yeah, rules, mules…" He said quietly. "ATTENTION FAIRY TAIL. WE ARE HERE FOR THE MARRIAGE OF EVERGREEN AND ELFMAN. NOW KISS ALREADY!" He tried pushing the two's heads together, but failed. "Kiss already…" He said annoyed.

"Can we at least do the 'I do.' parts?" Evergreen inquired. Master Makarov looked at her, and nodded.

"Fine…" He stood up a little straighter. "Elfman, will you take Evergreen as your wife?" It was obvious he missed a lot of words, but everyone just went with it.

"I do," Elfman answered.

"And Evergreen, do you take Elfman as your husband?"

"I do," Evergreen answered. Makarov stood prouder.

"NOW KISS!" He grinned. He then pushed the two's heads again, but this time they moved. Everyone cheered wildly when they kissed. "You are now married. TO THE AFTER PARTY!" Makarov jumped off of the priest's head, taking his hat with him.

"My hat…" The priest patted his bald head. The guild followed the master as he headed outside, cheering even more wilder when Elfman picked Evergreen up bridal style. The girls squealed in joy, and a small amount of the boys kind of stared, surprised on how Fairy Tail weddings were. Maemi smiled widely. She was quite happy she returned. Otherwise, life would be boring for her, as she'd still be fighting for eternity. Some kind of sense flew at her, making her shiver in horror. A faint image of the Spirit King appeared, instead having white-glowing eyes. She felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned to see Natsu, who looked at her worriedly.

"You okay Mae?" He asked her, as if she was a small child. Maemi nodded, shaking a bit. "No, you're not. You're scared of something, aren't you?" Maemi looked surprised on how observant he was.

"How did you know-?" Maemi was taken back.

"It's obvious! You were shaking, with a scared-look on your face," He poked her cheek gently. "You know that I know you too well!" He laughed.

"You don't all that much about me…" Maemi sighed. "Especially my past."

"Tell me then! I've told you mine, so it would only be fair!"

"What about the others…?" Maemi was clearly mentioning Gray, Erza, Cana, and Levy. Natsu shrugged.

"I can tell them, how about that?"

"I honestly don't they'll believe you… Especially since it's my past."

"Can I please get a few others so they can hear it as well?" Natsu crossed his arms.

"Yeah, sure. Maybe I'll learn a bit more about them."

"Alright! I'll be right back!" Natsu ran to get the group all there. Surprising enough, he, Gray, Lucy, Erza, Cana, Levy, Mirajane, Lisanna, Gajeel, Wendy, and even the exceeds.

"This is kind of a big group…" Maemi muttered, shying up a bit.

"Well, a few of us want to know more about you," Lucy said with a smile. Maemi found a chair, put it down around the large group. She sat on it backwards, getting a little comfortable. They all sat down on the ground, surrounding the chair. Natsu tried to scoot a little closer, but Erza glared at him, sending him back.

"Alright… Listen well, 'cause I am not repeating…" Maemi took a quick breath, and began to explain. "It all started on December 15, x764, which also just happened to be year of the dragon. I was born on that day, I have no idea what time, but that doesn't matter all that much." Most of the group looked quite bored already. "Hmph, well, apparently, a dragon was passing by at the time. When my real parents weren't looking, it landed near the nearest window near me. It passed magic to me, but not the normal amount Dragon Slayers received." Now more people looked interested. "In fact, the dragon gave me 99% of it's magic power, allowing me to be strong like I am today. I have no idea what the extra 1% is, or where… But, otherwise, my life is a pain. Well, not right now, but it was in the past." Maemi saw Cana and Levy look at each other quietly.

"Most of you may not know, but I had two younger sisters. One that was about 3-4 years younger than me, and one being 5-6 years younger. My parents, after the third child, became very separate, and slowly lead to fighting. Verbally, of course. At the time, I didn't know that I had magic, so what I did was simple: I ran away. Not far, but I ran to get away from the chaos. So one day, they had the biggest fight ever! It even included physical punches! So, I let my younger sisters sleep in my room together, lied that I'd be there the whole time, and ran out. I was too scared to be there…" Maemi continued.

"So, I ran slower. The bigger the fight, the slower I was. I didn't know why, but I just couldn't bring myself to running fast. Halfway through my usual run, I heard two loud screams. At that point, I began to run as quick as Natsu when he sees food… Except, maybe a little faster. When I got there… Home I mean…" She paused as a horrific look flew into her eyes. The image of what happened made her tear up. Natsu began to scoot closer, but was once away pushed away by Erza's glare. The scarlet-haired woman then got up, and hugged her unofficial little sister, comforting her.

Maemi did begin to cry, but only a little. She knew she had to continue. "There… I saw… my whole family's organs hanging off of window-sills, the door, the walls… Blood covered the entire house… I was the only thing alive in the area. The worse part was when I got to my room… My youngest sister… She was twitching. Her hand was detached, but it was twitching… I saw two eyeballs rolling around the room, and I saw them look at me. I… I heard a voice and it said… 'You lied…'" Maemi lost control of her feelings, and tears poured out. The group looked at each other quietly. Erza continued to hold the bleach blonde-haired girl close, comforting her.

"And then… I saw the ghosts of them… They had red, glowing eyes instead of white ones. They stared at me, and the words slowly turned into their voices. It slowly increased in volume, and I ended up screaming, and straining my voice for an entire week. That whole week, I mourned for their sake. I buried all the extra parts I could find… I figured they could at least have a nice burial. I was… around 6 years old." The group gasped.

"The 8th day, I began to clean up the blood, but then… the killers returned. I-I don't want to tell you what happened…" Maemi stuttered, as if afraid to tell them. "It's something that haunts me every time I hurt something or badly injure something…"

"Tell us, Mae-Chan…" Levy persisted her quietly.

"We won't hate you for it…" Gray added.

"We never will," Cana finished.

"Let's just say, I didn't have any weapons… So… I brutally killed them. With my bare hands. I'll tell some of you the details later, as I know some people here remain innocent hearted…" Maemi looked at Wendy gently, who was shivering a bit. "They had the same demise as my family. Except, I didn't give them a burial. After all of that, I found a spirit. Not just any spirit…" Maemi looked over at Lucy.

"I'm sure you know the Spirit King? Don't you Lucy?" Lucy stared at Maemi. "You see, he told me I had powerful magic, and brought me up to the Celestial Spirit World, where I stayed there for three years. The Spirit King equalized time in the Spirit world so that I could live a long time there. And I did, I stayed in that world for three years. And I do mean human years. Our time and years. I enjoyed it, but things quickly got boring. So one day, I played a prank on the Spirit King. Leo helped me, as he loved helping me out, whether it was bad or good. When the Spirit King saw us, he only saw Leo real good, and he didn't see me…"

"Y-you know Loki?!" Maemi looked at Lucy, who was surprised. Maemi nodded.

"Leo was about to get banished, until I stepped in and confessed of what I did. He said that I was more important than Leo, so right as he was about to get hit by the Banishing Sword, I pushed Leo out of the way, I banished myself. That was around the time I fell from the sky, and landed in front of Fairy Tail, where Master Makarov found me…" Maemi didn't notice that now most of the guild was listening into the story, but she still didn't see them.

"A year later, I found a foster father… Around other people and in public, he acted like the nicest guy and sweetest foster father in the world! When he and I were alone… He'd abuse me. He'd slap me if I made one tiny little mistake, and he'd slap me again if I cried about the previous slap. Only a few months later, I was ticked at him. When we were walking to the guild, I turned into an alley, forcing him to follow me, as he acted like a good foster father."

"When we were alone, he beat me even more. He didn't want me to turn into an alley, and hit me over 40 times. That's when I cracked and… I killed him. It wasn't a mistake, I was the one who killed him… I faked that someone else killed him, because I didn't want anyone to hate me. That was when I was 10. Three years later… I went on the mission. 12 years later, I return from it…" Maemi finished quickly, looking at the ground to cry more.

"…Maemi? I feel like you need to explain more on how you killed him…" Maemi froze when she heard the master.

"Gramps, you're gonna kick me out, aren't you…?"

"No." Maemi gasped in surprise and looked towards the master. "I always knew he was bad. Secretly, I had occasionally tagged along on your back as a small bug, and I saw him beating you. I wasn't there when you killed him… But someone else was."

"Who?"

"These two…" Master Makarov motioned to Cana and Levy, who looked at the ground in embarrassment. "They saw you use Guardian Dragon's Judgment."

"W-what…?" A person murmured.

"Guardian Dragon…?" Someone muttered.

"We're sorry, Mae-Chan…" Levy sighed.

"We should've told you earlier. We couldn't bring ourselves to it…" Cana explained.

"… It's fine." Maemi looked at the master. "I'm not a Silver Dragon… I'm a Guardian Dragon. I'm not a Dragon Slayer, I'm…" Maemi moved her shirt up enough to reveal the sign. "I'm a Dragon!"


CLIFFHANGER! So, Elfman and Evergreen are finally married? WHOO HOO! I'm sure Maemi's backstory really added the romance! HAH! Anyways, the story seems to be traveling quite quickly…

These are the winning shippings so far for Maemi:

FIRST - Natsu Maemi (3-4)

SECOND - IgnusXMaemi (1)

THIRD - GrayXMaemi, LaxusXMaemi, Loki/Loke/LeoXMaemi, StingXMaemi, AND RogueXMaemi. (0)

So the next chapter… Hm… Well, that's a bit more difficult. It might be a filler about the exceeds. ^^; They don't show up much in the story anyways.

QUESTIONS:

1. Do you want Master Makarov to be the priest at your wedding?

2. I took the priests hat from the master, WHO WANTS IT?! :D

3. Anyone confused on why Natsu brought a huge group for the backstory?

4. Was the backstory good? ^v^

5. How did you react to Maemi being a Dragon? :D

END OF QUESTIONS.
