I was still in the infirmary but was now pretty much fully healed and would be able to leave soon.

Today team Natsu were leaving for a big quest. Sadly I wasn't permitted to go with them due to my condition. I was certainly going to miss my friends but a week wasn't all that long.

I was pulled from my thoughts by an unexpected knock at the door followed by Natsu's entrance.

"We're leaving soon." He smiled as he sat on the bed.

"You better come back in one piece!" I giggled but still with a serious tone.

"I will."

He gave me a hug then helped me up and into the main hall so that I could say goodbye to the others. I could walk and move perfectly fine now but I had to make sure I didn't over do it in case I made my injuries worse before they were fully healed. I had to admit being trapped in one room felt like it was slowly driving me crazy.

I got into the guild hall and said my goodbyes.

"Good luck everyone!" I shouted as I waved after them.

"Come on! Time we get ya home" Kuimori nudged me towards the door.

I couldn't wait to get home and have a lovey hot bath, play video games and probably not even look at my bed for the next few days.

The next day

I was feeling a lot better especially since I'd been home, however without Natsu and the others it was a little lonely.

Kuimori and I were sat at a table in the guild just drinking and talking when Magena came in. She looked a little upset.

I watched as she sat down with Bickslow. They were too far away for me to hear their conversation so I turned my attention back to Kuimori.

A minuet or two later there was a load bang and I looked up to see Magena stood up starting down at Bickslow with harsh eyes.

"He isn't coming back, Okay! He's dead!" She yelled.

Everyone stared in shock. At that moment I noticed there was only two members of the thunder legion sat at the table: Bickslow and Evergreen. Where was Freed?

Did Magena mean that Freed was dead? I wanted to push the thought from my mind as if it was just a stupid thought but the saddened looks that the two remaining members had only confirmed their loss.

I knew I had to do something. There was no way I would just sit back and accept that a guild member and a friend was gone just like that.

It had been a week and Team Natsu were finally back from their quest, however, we had no time to celebrate their return. Master had called every member of Fairy Tail to the guild hall. I knew exactly why he'd called us all together but many members were still unaware of the circumstances.

As I sat silently at the back of the room Master walked onto the stage and cleared his throat. What had been a room full of discussion was now silent. Everyone stared at Master Makarov in anticipation. His face was aimed to the floor with a dark expression. It was hard to tell whether he was full of rage or sadness.

"Now I'm sure your all eager to find out why I've called you here." He looked up and scanned the faces in the crowd. This only engraved his expression with further anguish.

"I'm afraid we have lost one of our members; Freed."

With that the silence in the room was broken and replaced with shocked gasps and whispered questions.

"I can not disclose the full details of his death but you should all know that he died a hero protecting someone he loved."

The hall fell quiet again as everyone took in the information. It felt like years passed in that one moment. looking round the room I could see some people shed a tear and some just stare at the floor. Evergreen clung to Bickslow, crying into his chest. Magena was no where to be seen but I didn't expect her to show. She had been so distraught a few days ago and hadn't been to the guild since.

I expected Master to tell us to stay strong before dismissing the meeting but instead he said nothing. He looked across his saddened audience and raised his right had, pointing one finger to the sky. The Fairy Tail symbol. It meant that even if we couldn't see each other we were still there. I raised myself from my seat at the back and returned the symbol. One by one everyone did the same thing until each member of Fairy Tail was stood in the room with their hands and their hearts pointing to the heavens. To Freed.

This wasn't the end. There had to be a way to fix this.

Later that day I was sat at a table With Wendy and Carla surrounded by books.

We had been searching for a way to revive Freed using her healing magic.

"Here, Renka, look at this" Carla summoned me over to look at the spell she had found.

I read it over carefully then pushed the book towards Wendy who did the same.

"This could work!" She declared triumphantly.

"Then what are we waiting for. We better hurry" Carla called as she headed to the door.

We hurried to the church to find Freed's body before he was berried.

We finally found him and after making sure no one was around Wendy started to revive him.

A few minuets later he started to wake up.

"Whats going on?" He asked confused

"You died but we found a spell to save you. Now let's get back to the guild" I said in a hurry.

We had to get back before we were spotted. How would someone react if they saw us revive a dead guy?

One year later

It was Freed's birthday today and Magena was singing a song for his memory. He's lost all of his memory's so he hasn't been able to reunite with her, meaning she still thinks he's dead. We'd decided it was best to let his memory's come back before we let everyone know he was back. Well that was what Master Makarov had decided when we explained everything. He was furious we'd used suck a spell without even letting him know but since he was so happy to have Freed back we got off lightly.

No one bust the master had had contact with Freed since he returned from the dead so i had no idea how much he remembered, however, i had a good feeling lately. I was sure he would make his reappearance soon.

I watched as Magena entered the guild and made her way through the usual riot.

She got up on stage with her guitar and caught everyone's attention. Immediately everyone sat down but I'm not entirely sure what Natsu did with Gray's pants that he was previously waving just out of Gray's reach. Truth be told I really didn't want to find out.

Magena started her song. It was beautiful, I had no idea she had such a talent.

All eyes were on her until she finished and left the stage. That's when I saw her bump into Freed. I knew it! I knew it would be today!
