Izutsu: Jellal the guy is actually one I can portray as a perfect father (minus the possession ofc ^^') haha you'll see depends on the flow of my writing xD
CherryChan09: =D I'm not sure how to respond! Happy you enjoyed the chappy ^^
ayame028: she's really cute as a kid xD really, hope mashima isn't done with her mum yet so we can see little Lucy xD and her mother's true powers or whatnot, I'm actually thinking she's involved in this arc (who knows maybe she was a fairy tail made and knew something? Or maybe she has something to do with Zeref) or in the next or the dragon arc most probably ^^
Ark Crk Thorn: you can't say you'll fail until you try ^^ I'm sure you'll do great xD thanks will be looking forward to hearing from you =D
narutofan1091: Sorry I needed time to figure out stuff before writing the rest xD here it is now hope you like it =D
Taygon55: Lucy is actually quite strong ay? Considering she started out as a mage like six months prior the current arc (fairy island arc). I'll be explaining stuff in this chap and so I hope you'll find it satisfactory =D and well after busting out prison unbeknownst to you that you're escaping and you see a friend you hurt so much but love I don't think you'll find the words to express yourself and blurt the first thing that comes to mind no? well at least I think so I mean the surprise and all the emotions can get to you ^^ and 'Hi Erza' is probably the first thing you'd say after not seeing her for some time or so I thought xD
Lucy: okay of to chappy four now the rest of the reviews are like always after the chap xD and rememberFTP own nothing but the plot and any OC (if any are introduced) =D
Natsu just stood there growling and panting with a bump on his head which was probably the spot that had cushioned his fall. Erza was speechless her mind trying to analyze the situation but still couldn't understand how it was possible that her Jellal was here. Jellal and the other hand was acting as if he had always been there talking to Lucy in a fatherly manner who was still hiding her face buried in his neck trying to convince her Natsu was not a mad man. It was not what any of them expected from a man who had been most probably in a high security cell to act so calm yet here he was acting all fatherly.
Natsu finally couldn't take it any more to see Lucy in the arms of everyone but him so he followed his instincts and snatched her away from a perplexed Jellal, "I still don't trust you, you helped us stop Nirvana and you're one of us now, but I still don't trust you enough with Lucy! I'm the only man she needs!"
Erza blinked surprised by Natsu's words, she wondered if he even understood what he was saying, probably not yet, but the emotion the words held she recognized it immediately and chuckled and so did Jellal. Their eyes met and they looked at each other for what felt like a lifetime.
"I'm here," he said answering the question the red hair had buried in her heart up until this night.
"How?"
Jellal just smiled and looked at the little blond girl who the fire dragon slayer was holding protectively.
"Natsu-san," Lucy whispered in Natsu's ear, "I want to go for a walk please?"
Natsu eyes immediately lit up and he almost screamed with happiness his trademark grin appearing on his face, looking briefly at Erza who nodded and gave him an I-told-you look he made his way out of Titania's rooms, setting down Lucy who walked beside him no longer scared of him. When they could no longer hear their footsteps Erza spoke up.
"It was Lucy? But how could she have done this? Did she summon you?"
"Hahaha so many questions Erza, I can't answer them all if you dump them on me so quickly…but I do have one of my own…" Jellal said looking at her as if she was the most beautiful thing he had ever set eyes on.
Erza got up from the bed and walked up to him pressing her forehead to his strong chest she mumbled, "I missed you, the real Jellal, and now you're here,"
Embracing the strong yet fragile woman in front of him Jellal smirked, "Glad to be back,"
Natsu literally skipped into the kitchen of Fairy Hills hoping he could find something good and hopefully on fire. The small Lucy kept looking at him sometimes frowning clearly confused, Natsu noticed but he was too happy that she wasn't running away from him any more to ask her until they had set foot in the kitchen and were merrily munching their snacks, a fire sandwich and a normal one for Lucy.
"Why would you run away from me was I really that scary?" Natsu managed to say between bites.
Little Lucy shook her head furiously, "No you were funny,"
Natsu gaped at her, he was even more lost than before now and didn't know what to say.
"It's just that when you come close my heart starts to beat really, really, reaaallly fast! And I feel my face getting all warm and my stomach feels weird, I thought I was allergic to you…"
"Eh?" Natsu's head made contact with the table they were sitting on with a loud thud, "Only kids would think you could be allergic to people, Luce you weirdo!"
Lucy giggled not even a little unsettled by his remark, "I am a kid! But one day I'll become an adult and I'll be a strong mage just like mama was…"
At the mentioning of her mother Lucy looked down at her half eaten sandwich and bit her lip, Natsu could smell the salted tears that were forming and changed the subject as quickly as he could, "You know I feel the same way when I'm close to a friend of mine, her name is Lucy too! She's a celestial spirit mage and has all these cool keys and stuff to summon people!"
Lucy looked up and Natsu her eyes shining, "Wow really, you think she'll let me see them?"
"Oh no problem I have them right her! Luce won't mind at all if you keep them for her she's umm on a mission right now yeah!"
'Haha great thing I picked up Lucy's keys and kept them for her, but I guess they'll be safer with her even if she doesn't know their her own spirits' Natsu thought proud of himself handing the keys to the ten year old version of the owner.
"Wow ten golden keys, Aquarius she must be really cool and pretty right?,"
"Umm aha yeah," Natsu laughed nervously remembering all the times they had almost drowned because of the moody spirit; he wouldn't call her actions cool.
"Virgo, Taurus, Sagittarius, Gemini, Capricorn, Leo, Aries and Cancer, your friend is so lucky to have all these spirits! There's also silver keys Crux, Lyra, Horologium and"
"Plue is the coolest of them all!" Natsu said nodding his head.
"Plue? What a cute name! But I don't remember any spirit called Plue,"
"It's the name y..er..Lucy called the canis minor,Nicola!" Happy chimed in as he flew onto the table in front of the tiny Lucy.
"Waoh a flying cat how awesome!" Lucy exclaimed clearly pleasing Happy who smiled at her and stood with his paws on his hips proudly.
"Don't get excited Happy she'll soon release her mistake, it's Lucy she must have been a smart kid," Charle mumbled behind him as she landed.
"The white cat is really pretty," Lucy told Natsu as Charle blushed, while Happy murmured something that sounded like, 'Kawaii'
"Natsu-san, Lucy-sa..er-chan? Umm," Wendy called as she came in.
"We just finished cleaning up!" Lisanna came in after her walking up to them and ruffling Lucy's hair, "You know maybe it isn't that bad she's adorable like this,"
"Lisanna! You and Mira really are sisters with all the crazy ideas!"
"I'm just kidding guys don't look so shocked!"
They all laughed in unison earning a confused expression from the small blond child who couldn't understand who they were talking about but just shrugged It off and continued munching happily her sandwich.
Jellal sat next to Erza their shoulders touching as they leaned towards one another savoring each others warmth.
"I'm not sure but I think I was somehow summoned here, I heard you calling me in my cell, I felt stupid but I tried to open the door," Jellal started to explain
"Open the door of a closed cell?" Erza teased
"I don't know what or why, I just knew I had to…," Jellal shrugged, "Good thing I did,"
Erza chuckled and urged the blue haired man to continue.
"I felt a surge of energy and to my surprise the door opened to a bright light a yellow magical seal appeared on it and so I went through it after all I had nothing to lose and…"
"You found Lucy opening the way for you," Erza finished for him as their fingers entwined.
"Yeah, I was surprised to see you celestial mage friend reduced in size, Natsu's doing I presume?"
"You guessed it,"
They remained in silence until Erza once again spoke up, "I didn't know celestial mages could summon humans,"
"They can't but their ability does not halt at merely being able to summon spirits I have heard about many high power spells belonging to celestial magic and one of them seems to fit this situation, Shooting Star,"
"Shooting Star?" Erza asked, "Sounds complicated,"
"Not really, it is a spell which is actually cast mostly by instinct when said celestial mage wants to help another person, it acts as basically the myth of the shooting star, if there's something the person desires the mage will unbeknownst to him or her make it happen but only for a day,"
"Of course," Erza murmured earning a 'what?' look from Jellal.
Erza immediately explained all that had happened to her childhood friend as best as she could and continued, "When I was talking to Lucy, I wanted to see you so much, she must have cast the spell without knowing!"
"What an amazing mage," Jellal responded and the leaned forward to kiss Erza on the cheek, "and thank you for forgiving me, for loving me, for everything,"
Erza felt her face heat up and was pretty sure it now was the same clour as her scarlet hair but nonetheless she leaned against Jellal placing her head on his shoulder, "A day is good,"
"I'm grateful, a day is more than enough," Jellal agreed.
"What about the council?"
"The spell makes sure nothing gets in the way of the wish, for them I must be still in my cell with no hope of escaping, when the day is up I'll be sent back though,"
"I'm sorry,"
"I will atone for my sins but if I'm ever free again may I join you at Fairy Tail,"
"I thought you'd never ask," she instantly replied closing the space between them and crashing her lips to his.
Meanwhile Natsu and Happy were dancing the Plue dance while their female companions laughed wholeheartedly at them.
"Natsu!" an angry voice resounded suddenly as a flash of golden light enveloped the room, "What have you done to my beloved Lucy!"
"aaa I'm sorry, I'm sorry," a shy voice whispered almost unaudible, "I couldn't stop him once he found out I'm sorry!"
