LET'S BEGIN

~~~~~Time skip brought to you by the extreme fatty Happy~~~~~

You groaned and stretched as you all stepped into castle ruins. A rumble resonated through the walls and you clutched your head, pain rippling through your skull. Gray quickly caught you when you began to fall and you breathed heavily. You groaned and Gray gently set you back up onto your feet.

"You okay? What happened?" Gray questioned, obvious concern in his voice. You smiled at his concern and looked up.

"I've been here before…" You said, sweeping your hand over the wall. Realization hit you when you heard the rumble again. You stepped back. "No….no! We have to get out of here, now!"

Erza stared at you as if you were crazy. "What are you talking about? We have to destroy this thing!" Erza requipped her axe and walked to the wall.

"No! You don't understand, this is where my parents died! We can't stay! This is where-" You were stopped as Erza swung her axe to the wall, making it shatter like glass and it crumbled before you.

A roar echoed and a creature emerged from the crack in the floor.

"-Deliora lives!" You practically screamed at everyone. Gray's eyes widened and he screamed, "Everybody get out NOW! I'll hold Deliora off! Happy, take care of (Name)!"

"Aye!" Happy grabbed you and flew, while everyone ran away. You looked behind you and prayed that Gray would be alright. Suddenly, you heard a smack and Gray went flying towards you. He sighed. "Hey," Gray smirked, putting his hands behind his head. You laughed and Gray smacked into a tree. Laughing harder, you peeled him off the trunk and he fell on you.

"Yeep!" You cried, falling onto the dusty ground. You laughed and Gray helped you up. The little group came back to you and smiled.

"Let's get outta here." You said, still grasping your hand.

Gray nodded and smiled, then looked down at your intertwined hands. Both of you instantly let go and blushed, avoiding each other's eyes.

"Y-yeah, l-let's go." Gray stuttered, quickly heading down the grassy mountain.

"Let's go to the beach, guys!" Natsu yelled.

Erza stroked her imaginary beard and nodded. "This town is at it's best weather. Why not spend our celebration at the beach? It'd be fun."

Happy flew around your head. "Aye!~ There'll be fish in the water too! It's gonna be a feast!"

"YEAH!" The six of you cheered, heading towards the sparkling water of the sea.
