A/N: Welcome back to The Heart's Journey. I hope you are all enjoying it. If you enjoy then let me know

Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail but if I did I'd add a few more unique backstories.

Class had started as usual. Wendy was notes on the lesson. The class was learning about history.

"Mrs. Reinhardt I have a question about this slide, it's taking about magic, why are we talking about magic when it isn't real?" a student asked.

"Well when you hear about the past, you hear about magic a lot. While magic isn't thought to be real by most people, there are still some who believe it exists." Mrs. Reinhardt explained.

"If magic existed before then why isn't it around today?" Wendy asked.

"That's a question historians wonder. Not much is known about how magic existed before but there are some people nowadays who claim to be able to use magic or supernatural powers like the self proclaimed heroes in towns like Crocus, Margaret City and Hargeon." Mrs. Reinhardt continued.

"Hey Romeo, we're there any heroes in Hargeon?" Eve asked.

"I know of one who claimed to be a hero." Romeo replied.

"Well can he use magic?" Eve questioned.

"I'm not exactly sure if it was magic but he was much stronger than a normal person. I saw him beat multiple gang members without taking a scratch." Romeo answered.

"I'm you've seen this, do you think magic is real?" Mrs. Reinhardt asked.

"I'm believe it is real, but it is being hidden for a reason. There must be a reason for us not to see it in everyday life." Romeo declared.

"Can you use magic?" Wendy asked.

"Who knows, maybe I can."

"All right for today's homework, I want you guys to make a survey and ask your friends and family something about magic. Since the homework is open ended, I want you to make it interesting." Mrs. Reinhardt told the class


Wendy was walking towards the tables where the juniors and seniors sat. Wendy was trying to find those she knew sat here. She walked through until she found Natsu, Lucy and their group of friends. While Wendy didn't know all of them, she knew their names. On Natsu's left was Gray Fullbuster and his girlfriend Juvia Lockser. Across the table was Gajeel Redfox, Levy McGarden and Erza Scarlet. Wendy talked over to their table and they all turned to her.

"Hey Wendy how's it going?" Natsu greeted..

"Everything is fine, do you guys remember learning about magic in history?" Wendy asked.

"I remember that, it was talking about how history and magic seem to go hand in hand right? I remember learning that." Levy responded.

"Do you guys think magic exists? I have to ask people for my homework." Wendy explained.

"I think it exists, it would make sense. There are a lot of miracles that happen that just can't be explained." Lucy exclaimed.

"I've seen people do magic so I think so." Gajeel informed.

"I think it would be very boring if magic didn't exist." Erza added.

"My love for Gray is like magic." Juvia explained.

"Well we all basically think magic or some form of it exists here." Natsu finished.

"Alright, thank you, I'll see you later. "Wendy thanked as she rushed off.

"Well that's one thing done but I have one more thing I want to get done during lunch." Wendy thought.


As Wendy arrived on the roof, she saw a guy laying down with his back against the tense that went across the edge of the roof. Once he saw Wendy, he sat up.

"I never expected to see you here."

"I've heard that you can find information on anyone, is that true Bixlow?" Wendy questioned.

"That's true, but who do you want information on is the real question." Bixlow challenged.

"Romeo Conbolt, I'm guessing that you know who I'm talking about." Wendy revealed.

"What is it you want to know about him and what are you willing to give for payment? I accept money and information if it is great enough." Bixlow inquired.

"Trust me, once you get the information, you will be pleased with your compensation." Wendy answered as she started to walk towards the door. " And tell me about his past, I want to know who he was in Hargeon and what he did."


Wendy was sitting in a cafe looking at her phone. She was looking at an article about examples of magic in real life. Wendy was so focused on her phone, she failed to notice her pink haired friend sneaking up behind her.

"What are you looking at?" Chelia asked.

Wendy jumped in surprised before she noticed Chelia. "I need to put a bell on you. And I'm just looking at an article." Wendy replied.

"Hmm, magic, do you really think it's real?" Chelia asked.

"I'm not sure but it seems interesting. Why can't it exist?" Wendy asked.

"You can't ask a question like that. That's basically like saying that aliens exist since we do or that there are other realities because ours exists. There need to be a reason for it." Chelia refuted.

"Not everything needs a reason. Things can exist without a reason." Wendy argued.

"Then name one thing that doesn't have a reason but still exists." Chelia challenged.

"Well you always want to get into a relationship but you are somehow still single." Wendy sarcastically answered.

"Wow, that was just cheap." Chelia replied in disbelief.

"Well I might be single but you have a change to get into a relationship. Just let me help get you and Romeo together." Chelia pleaded.

"Chelia I'm fine, I don't need to be in a relationship. Can't I just live without you trying to put me into a relationship with somebody?" Wendy asked.

"No, I know what's best for you. That's why we always do my ideas." Chelia explained.

"Yes and that's why we are now banned from the McDonald's by your house." Wendy sarcastically agreed.

"Fine then, what is it that you want to do then? What is the plan of the great Wendy Marvell?" Chelia asked.

"I don't have any plans right now." Wendy replied.

"That's bullshit and you know it, now spill it." Chelia insisted.

"Well I do want to know more about Romeo." Wendy started.

"I knew it, you do have a crush on Romeo." Chelia interrupted.

"No it's not that," Wendy denied with a light blush, "It's just that everything about his past seems pretty suspicious and I want to know what he's hiding."

"Alright baby steps then, if you want to know about his past why don't you ask him?" Chelia asked.

"Whenever someone asks he is always ad vague as possible. He won't willingly give up any more than he has to." Wendy revealed.

"Well why don't we go follow him around and see what he does? That might give us some idea of his past." Chelia suggested.

"No, I'm not going to become a stalker." Wendy refused.

"Well then let's do something fun. Someone from my class is having a party, let's go to that." Chelia proposed.

"I don't know if parties are really my thing." Wendy argued.

"Well let's just go and you can see if you like it. If not we can just go to my house since it isn't too far from there." Chelia recommended.

"Sure but if we get in trouble then I'm blaming you." Wendy warned.

"You'd lame me regardless so how is this any different." Chelia sighed.


At about seven, the two girls left to go to the party. As they got close, Wendy and Chelia saw the house where the party was taking place. It was a two story house that currently was many cars parked nearby. When the two entered, they saw many people partying with loud music playing.

"So what do you think so far?" Chelia asked.

"It's quite loud." Wendy admitted.

"Well you'll get used to it, let's go walk around." Chelia told Wendy as she pulled her further into the house.

As the two walked around, they saw many different activities going on. Some people were in the living room dancing, some were playing pool, some were just talking to others, some were in the backyard talking and dancing, but most obviously, most people were drinking. The two decided to just take a break and were sitting on some folding chairs in the backyard.

"So what do you think?" Chelia asked.

"It's alright I guess." Wendy answered.

"That's hardly an answer. Tell me what you think?" Chelia repeated her question.

"Well I don't have a problem with anything, I just noticed that a lot of people are drinking." Wendy revealed.

"Well that's fine, you don't have to drink if you don't want to." Chelia told her friend.

"Hey there ladies, I've never seen you two here before." A guy who looked like a stereotypical jock said as he walked up to the duo. "The names Ivan."

"Hello Ivan, what can we do for you?" Wendy politely asked.

"I'm just wondering if you want a drink." Ivan revealed.

"No thanks I don't drink." Wendy denied the request.

"Me neither so I'll pass as well." Chelia also refused the drink.

"Come on, how can you enjoy party without drinking a bit." Ivan asked.

"No thanks, we are fine." Chelia again told the teen.

"Come on, just one drink." Ivan said as he offered the drink he was holding to the two.

"Hey man if they tell you no, then that means no." a voice told Ivan.

"Well who do you think you are telling me what to do?" Ivan asked as he turned around to see Romeo standing there.

"I'm just saying that it's common courtesy to listen to a woman when she says no. You might want to try learning that." Romeo jabbed.

"Are you trying to start something you little shit." Ivan growled as he got in Romeo's face.

Romeo and Ivan started each other down for a few seconds with Romeo having no reaction to Ivan's aggressiveness before a third person came to break up the fight.

"Hey what's going on over here?" A large dark skinned man asked.

"Well this guy was bothering these two over here and wouldn't take no for an answer." Romeo explained.

"That's bullshit, Brock do you really believe the nonsense this kill is saying?" Ivan asked.

"Ivan I think it's best you leave. We've had problems with you before at parties so I suggest to leave before it gets ugly." Brock threatened.

"Fine then, this party was lame anyways." Ivan complained before he went into the house.

"I'm sorry about him, he… he has a lot of issues. If you need anything just let me know. The name's Brock, this is my house so I can help you with whatever you need." Brock told the duo before he went back inside the house.

"So what are you two doing here?" Romeo asked as he took a sip for his cup."

"We're here to enjoy the party." Chelia answered. "Is there something wrong with that?"

"No it just the two of you don't really seem like the type to come to parties." Romeo replied.

"Well normally we don't but I convinced Wendy to come to this with me." Chelia revealed.

"Ya I decided to come with her." Wendy repeated.

"Alright then I'll believe you two. Hopefully he wasn't bothering you two for long." Romeo sighed.

"No he wasn't bothering us very long before you came." Wendy confirmed. "I didn't know that do drink."

"There's a lot of things you don't know about me. Well it isn't something that you just go announce at school." Romeo gushed.

"Do your parent know you drink?" Wendy asked.

"Do yours know that you are at a party right now? I can just imagine their faces when they learn that their precious daughter is a at party like this." Romeo teased.

"Well we could be doing worse." Chelia argued.

"You're right, you could be mugging drunks right now." Romeo agreed.

"That's not what I meant." Chelia disagreed.

"So why do you drink?" Wendy asked.

"There isn't really a reason I just do. I don't really see a problem with it." Romeo replied.

"I think we should probably get going then, we need to head home before my parents get home." Chelia revealed.

"Let me walk you two home." Romeo offered.

"Are you sure, we don't want to bother you with it." Wendy tried to argue.

"No please let me, what kind of man would I be if I let you two walk home in the dark like this." Romeo insisted.

"Alright but it isn't that far from here." Chelia explained as the three left the party.

The three walked down the road with only the streetlights and the moonlight to guide them.

"So Romeo, why did you come to the party?" Chelia asked.

"I heard about it and thought why not so I went." Romeo explained.

"Do you normally go to parties?" Chelia questioned.

"No, but I've been to a few before." Romeo answered.

"How old are you?" Chelia asked another question.

"What is this an interrogation?" Romeo joked "I'm fifteen right now."

"Shouldn't you be in the sophomore class then?" Wendy this time asked.

"Well I didn't start school on time when I was younger so I'm a year behind." Romeo explained.

"Everything about you seems kind of fishy; you are a year behind in school, you never talk about your past, and you are just at an upperclassmen party, who are you?" Chelia questioned.

"I'm Romeo Conbolt, everything is just mere coincidence." Romeo disputed.

"You're going to have trouble keeping a relationship with all those secrets your holding." Chelia blurted.

"From what I've heard, you're just going to have trouble finding a relationship." Romeo teased.

As the three were turning a corner, the sound of shoes could be heard from behind them. The three turned around to see Ivan running up to them.

"Do you think you can just make a fool of me and get away like nothing happened? I'll make you regret messing with me." Ivan threatened as he swung a punch directed at Romeo.

Romeo jumped back to dodge the punch as he got himself into a fighting stance.

"You two get back. I'll deal with him." Romeo told the girls.

Ivan rushed forward throwing multiple punches at Romeo. Romeo jumped back to avoid them and threw his own punch which hit Ivan's chin. Enraged, Ivan threw a heavy hit which Romeo dodged. Romeo grabbed Ivan's arm, pulled him close and kneed him in the stomach. Ivan stepped back to get some room holding his stomach.

"You fucking bitch!" Ivan cursed.

Ivan rushed forward and started to attack. After two punches which missed, Ivan went for a kick which connected and hit Romeo's arm. Taking the opportunity, Ivan tried to land a heavy blow on Romeo, but Romeo managed to dodge it. Romeo then kicked Ivan to knock him back and gain some distance. This time Romeo took the initiative and closed the distance. Romeo landed two punches on Ivan's chest and caught a kick Ivan tried to deliver. Romeo knocked Ivan into the ground and sent a powerful kick into his chest.

"Stay down." Romeo ordered.

Ivan tried to get back up but before he had a chance, Romeo delivered a powerful ace kick. After a moment, Romeo looked back at the girls.

"Let's hurry and get out of here." Romeo told the blue and pink haired girls.

The three rushed out of that area. After they gained some distance, they started to walk at a normal pace.

"Are you two okay?" Romeo asked.

"Are we okay, shouldn't we be asking you that?" Chelia challenged.

"I'm fine, I'm just wondering if you two were shaken up from that." Romeo explained.

"We are okay but you seemed like you weren't having that hard of a time fighting, have you gotten into fights before?" Wendy questioned.

"I'll admit I've been in my fair share of fights." Romeo confessed.

"I can tell, you looked like you didn't have a problem even though he was a junior." Chelia agreed.

"Well how far are we from your house?" Romeo asked the pinkie.

"We are nearly there, but don't try to change the subject. Where did you learn to fight like that?" Chelia interrogated.

"It was basically self taught." Romeo stated. " I never had anyone teach me."

"Well thanks for helping us tonight." Wendy thanked the purple haired teen.

"It wasn't an issue." Romeo replied.

"Well here we are." Chelia said as the three stopped in front of a house. "Would you like to come in?"

"I would but I need to head home before it gets too late." Romeo denied Chelia's request.

"Please just for a minute." Chelia insisted.

"Normally I would but I need to get home before it's too late or my dad will get upset." Romeo admitted.

"Alright but thank you again for helping us." Chelia sighed.

After Wendy and Chelia had went inside, Romeo headed home. Romeo walked down a few blocks before he found the place he called home. Romeo sat down on his bed before he lit a cigarette. Romeo took a puff before he played across his bed.

"Why is this harder than I thought it would be?" Romeo asked himself.
