Disclaimer: I don't own Fairy Tail
"I wanted to apologize to you. I shouldn't have made such a big deal on you not being able to save a person," Erza looked at Natsu, his hard gaze softening a bit.
No one can save every person from an unneeded death and you're no different," Erza finished, offering Natsu a smile.
A moment passed and Natsu stood, giving Erza a small smile. "That's true. Though, I can save most," Natsu told her.
"I can agree on that," Erza gave a nod.
Lucy smiled, glad that it didn't turn to a bloody mess. "We should head back. I'm sure breakfast will be ready soon," Wendy told them and nods of agreement followed.
Breakfast was served and they were all sitting, beginning their small feast. "I suggest starting a new guild," Erza spoke out.
"A new guild?" Wendy asked.
"A new guild, eh? I would agree on the idea," Jellal gave a nod.
"Well, we are mages. So, to become a true mage, you have to join a guild," Lucy pointed out.
"What would we name it though?" Sting asked.
Everything went silent as they stared at one another, having no ideas. "Lucy, your a writer. What would you want to call it?" Erza asked.
"I don't really have any ideas," Lucy laughed nervously.
"We could go visit the old Fairy Tail library. I sealed it with my runes and put a magic cover so no one would know it's there. I'm sure it has some ideas," Levy suggested.
"How about Rising Phoenix?" Tyson blurted.
Gazes looked at him. "I like it," Yukino admitted.
Murmurs of agreement sounded. "It's a great name Tyson," Natsu gave a wide smile.
Tyson rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment. "It really was nothing," Tyson gave a small laugh.
"Don't forget we need a guild marker to show we're part of the guild," Jellal reminded them.
"That's right, but we also need a leader," Levy added.
"I think Natsu should become guild master," Erza immediatly said.
Laxus and Gajeel burst into laughter. "Salamander being master? You're kidding!" Gajeel cried out.
Laxus said nothing, but continued laughing. "What about someone like Levy-chan?" Lucy suggested.
"Me? Isn't the guild master strong? I'm not really strong. What about Laxus?" Levy shook her head.
Laxus immediatly quit laughing. "Hasn't Laxus tried to create a strong guild, but failed? He almost killed Gramps," Natsu pointed out.
"Erza-san could become guild master," Wendy said quietly.
Erza shook her head. "I don't want too. I'm not very strong at all. You all make me strong. I think Natsu should become guild master," Erza declined the offer.
"Natsu-san should become guild master! It's not an easy job at all, but you have friends to help you," Sting pointed out.
"Sting, wouldn't you make a good guild master? You did good with managing Sabertooth," Rogue pointed out.
"Nah. I'll allow Fairy Tail to decide who's guild master. I tried, but failed to take them down so I'm quite weak compared to them," Sting gave a sincere smile.
"Jellal, you acted like the guild master in Crime Sorciere. Wouldn't you be a good guild master?" Erik asked.
"I was a criminal. I have no right to be a guild master. I will join Rising Phoenix, but I refuse taking the position of guild master," Jellal shook his head.
"Natsu-nii would make a good guild master! He's got the courage to go against enemies and he's strong! He should be guild master!" Romeo pointed out.
Natsu didn't seem to like the idea of being guild master, but he kept silent. They all argued who'd be guild master until Lucy sighed and said, "Where's Master when we're trying to make such a decision."
That made the entire place quiet. "Lucy's right. We need to get a person who once was a master to help us make the decision," Erza sighed.
Somewhere else; four ghostly people gather...
"Makarov, it seems they're having a problem with deciding a guild master," One said.
Makarov said nothing. "You should help them out Makarov. They won't reach a decision without help," Another said.
"Mavis, what do you think?" Makarov turned to the woman.
She shook her head and said, "I don't care. As long as it's an excellent choice," Mavis said with a smile.
"Well, there's Erza and Laxus. They would make good guild masters," The first said.
"I know Bob, but I don't trust Laxus with the new guild and Erza may make the guild quite strict. What do you think Goldmine?" Makarov pointed out.
"I don't think that the former Sabertooth members would be goods choices nor will the criminals of Crime Sorciere even though both had some good leaders within them," Goldmine pointed out.
"So that leaves out Sting, Rogue, Yukino, Jellal, Erik, Laxus and Erza. I also suggest we leave out the younger generation," Mavis added.
"Yeah, Wendy, Romeo, and the new one, Tyson, out of this. That only leaves Natsu, Gajeel, Lucy, and Levy," Makarov sighed.
"Gajeel shouldn't be guild master. He's got quite the dark side to him. He's not very open-hearted," Goldmine pointed out.
"True. Levy wouldn't like to be guild master and Lucy wouldn't really be able to control the guild. So that leaves..." Makarov stopped in realization.
"It leaves Natsu as a good candidate. He's got a good heart and he'll have a good hold on everyone. I don't see him not being a good guild master," Mavis gave a smile.
Makarov was frozen, surprised that Natsu was the choice he ended up with. "Making Laxus would make a better choice," Makarov said, changing his mind immediatly.
"Number six, didn't Laxus try to forcefully take the guild over? He's hungry to have power. Natsu was never like that," Mavis pointed out.
"He's pretty powerful. He's easily one of the strongest in that group," Bob pointed out.
"He could probably take down Bacchus with a bit of an effort," Goldmine added.
"Number one, is Natsu the right choice?" Makarov asked.
"He's got the Power of Feelings, now doesn't he? He'll make a great guild master!" Mavis smiled.
Makarov looked over at the Blue Pegasus and Quarto Cerberus masters and they nodded in agreement. "Fine. Mavis, you can go and tell them then," Makarov seemed worried of what would happen to the guild.
Mavis gave a smile before disappearing.
