"Juvia! What are you saying? You can't leave Fairy Tail!" Gray pleaded with the bluenette, pulling desperately on her arm. "You can't leave! Fairy Tail is your home! Calm down! You're not thinking straight!"
"Oh, is that the case? Are you sure that Juvia's not thinking straight right now, and instead, all of those years that Juvia spent fantasizing over you… That Juvia wasn't thinking straight then?" Juvia demanded, poking him in the chest, glaring furiously. "Any harsh treatment in Phantom would have been better than this! At least I could handle it! A broken rib, leg, arm… What is that compared to a broken heart?!" she demanded, tears flowing down her cheeks. "You don't understand what it's like. You don't realize how hard it is. How difficult it is to keep on living. Juvia thought that anyplace away from Phantom would have been like heaven! But when Juvia thinks about it, this place is more like hell! You never told Juvia if you hated Juvia, if you loved Juvia, or just wanted to be friends! You let Juvia fantasize about your feelings to Juvia, and that is worse than just telling Juvia that you hated me and never wanted to see Juvia again!" she shoved him away from her, and ran out of the guild. "That's right." She thought to herself. "Phantom is better than Fairy Tail. Phantom is better. Phantom. Phantom. Phantom. Phantom disbanded a while ago. But so did Oracion Seis. But they gathered new members. Now they're Oracion Seis (Reborn)… Both Phantom and Oracion Seis disbanded… Oracion Seis Reborn… Phantom Reborn! If someone were to re-gather some of the former members, get some more, organize it and train the mages… They could beat Fairy Tail in the Grand Magic Games!" she thought to herself, mind racing. "But who would do it? Who get Juvia convince?… Wait! Why does Juvia need to ask someone else to do it?! Juvia can do it herself!" she thought, her self-confidence growing. "Juvia can do this! Juvia can do this! Now… Who to recruit…"
"But Totomaru-san!" Juvia whined. "Why not?!"
"Because I have a decent life now! I don't have to run and hide from authorities! I teach! And get paid!"
"Oh, come one. Totomaru-san, we both know that deep inside, you still aren't satisfied with what you have. Sure, what you have is decent, but it definitely isn't as fun as it was at Phantom. Admit it. You enjoyed-no, loved-doing those sort of things. You enjoyed the chase, the running, the secrets. It was fun to you. It was fun to Juvia, and to the rest of us."
"Fine." Totomaru put his hands up from the long two-hour argument/discussion they had just finished. "You win. Now what? You gather up Aria, Sol, Gajeel, and we call ourselves Phantom Reborn?"
"No. Gajeel won't be in it." Juvia's face showed a small amount of pain that she hadn't been able to hide, but she continued despite the sadness that her own words brought to her. "He's too attached to Fairy Tail. I doubt that no matter how much he wants to join us, he actually will. However, it would be helpful to our reputation if we had a few dragon slayers… Know any?"
"Actually, yes I do…" Totomaru grinned at his friend.
"Are they any good?"
"Oh, you could say that..." Totomaru picked up a rainbow-colored lacrima from a nearby table and glanced at it for a few seconds before looking back at Juvia. "Would a few others be allowed as well? I've got some ideas..."
