Author's Note
WooHoo! Yo people, Here I am, in October as I promised last time! See, I do keep my promises when I can. :P (Though I said I can't promise, but I did it privately to myself xD) So, here is chapter 15! This one really doesn't reveal much of the story, BUT, it totally does contain a major part which, if you skip, would be no good! :D
Note: This is my mind made original fanfiction. Any resemblance is purely a coincidence.
Disclaimer: Everything goes to Hiro Mashima. Just telling if it wasn't clear already. :P
Best Friends for Life, zenkai made wa-
Rufus Lore and the other people looked at them bewildered. And that was when suddenly Rufus's face started turning into one of anger…and that's it. His face turned a tomato red.
"Grr, LUCY HEARTFILIA, THE TRIP IS CANCELED FOR YOU AND YOUR TEAM AND WE ARE GIVING IT TO THE TIGER TRIO, YOU USELESS DRAGONS!"

Present
Sabertooth Headquarters
Time Check: 2:01 PM
"B-but why, Manager! I know, we didn't get to the meeting on time but, but that was because we got a proble-!" Lucy was cut off, by her Manager, Rufus Lore. At least let me complete, you buffoon! Thought Lucy.
"NO BUTS, MS. HEARTIFILIA, DON'T MAKE EXCUSES NOW! I DON'T WANT TO LISTEN TO ANYTHING YOU SAY!" Rufus barked at Lucy, not wanting to listen to anything anymore.
"You don't want to listen to her, but you will listen to me, right?" AND, there appears Jellal Fernandes The Great to save the situation. Though he himself wasn't able to stand properly because of his sprained ankle, he still came to handle the situation. What a great being… (xD)
"Huh? You…wait, you are Jellal Fernandes, am I right?" Rufus stood up, bewildered. When was he even here!?
"Yes, you are right, I'm Jellal from The Blue Phoenixes. Actually, Mr. Rufus, it is really not the fault of The Red Dragons, because we really had a problem. I and my team were with them the whole time, so if you would please try to understand the situation, I would be very glad." Jellal smiled, trying to explain the situation to him. And Rufus obviously believed him.
"Hmm, okay then… Ms. Heartfilia, if you would please tell me and all others here what happened which caused you to be late for this important meeting." Rufus asked, and sat back on his seat, signaling Jellal and Lucy to take a seat as well.
Lucy had almost given up when Rufus shouted at her before, but she was incredibly happy when Jellal handled the situation, just like how Erza told he can. I'm so glad a member of the phoenixes came with me… that buffoon wouldn't listen to me, anyways.
"Ah yes!" Lucy exclaimed happily, and she and Jellal then took a seat, "So, yes… actually Rufus-san, after we reached to pick up the phoenixes, we realized that the helicopter we had, had the limit of 4 people… which then lead to us having to take a flight here. And plus, since everyone was hungry, we also stopped for breakfast… and also, when the flight landed, the door of the flight wasn't opening, at all! After a while, we managed to get out and come here… that's what happened…"
Meanwhile, Rufus and the other people there listened to Lucy carefully. After she finished, they agreed that they actually did not mean to not be present to the meeting, and finally announced that they aren't giving off the trip to The Tiger Trio.
"So, this trip is not being given off to The Tigers, sorry for not listening to you and shouting at you, Ms. Heartfilia." Rufus said, apologizing for his behavior.
"Yay! Thanks a lot! Its okay, Rufus-san!" Lucy exclaimed, very excited and happy, "Now, Natsu and Erza should also reach here any minu-!"
"We're here, Lucy." Natsu and Erza appeared from the doorway, panting heavily.
"Ah! Guys! Everything's fine! The trip is ours!" Lucy informed them, all the others in the room smiling and nodding.
"Really? Oh thank you so much… we're really sorry again, Lucy and Jellal must've already told you the situation, we believe. Sorry again.." Erza said, apologizing and bowing, making Natsu bow as well with her.
"Yeah, its ok now… Can we now just discuss the plans of your trip?" Rufus asked. All three glanced at each other.
"Why not!"
"Hey guys, I should leave now, my work here is done. See you later." Jellal got up (very painfully…) to leave, giving his goodbyes to his friends.
"No, its okay, Mr. Fernandes, for you to stay here since you are part of the trip, you know." Rufus said.
"Yes, well… I just got to go, I have something which I got to do, so I must leave… I'll see you later Mr. Lore, guys." Jellal said, and walked (a painful walk…) to the door.
"Hmm, okay then Mr. Fernandes, see you afterwards." Rufus smiled. Jellal smiled back and walked out.
"Excuse me for a minute please." Erza said and walked out after Jellal as well, leaving everyone confused. Not Natsu and Lucy though, since they know he is Erza's childhood friend.
"Hey Jellal." Erza called out, going after him.
"Huh Erza? What is it?" Jellal turned out, limping a little.
"Listen, I forgot this till now, but from the Airport the others are supposed to go back to our mansion. Just call or message them to ask Jelarl about the address, he knows Sydney streets pretty well too."
"Oh sure. Thanks. Now I gotta run, see ya!"
"What happened? You didn't tell about any plans you have…"
"Oh, remember before you left to find a taxi, I told that I want to tell you all something? Actually, I have a friend who is actually a part of TBP, but only perform sometimes. He'll be joining us on our World Trip, I just got the confirmation from our company, since his tour wasn't confirm before as usually he is really busy, but this time round he can join us. That's why I need to go meet him and get him, so I'm going there." Jellal explained.
"Oh I see… wait, why are you limping? Everything okay?" Erza saw that Jellal was limping on one foot.
"Er…well, actually I sprained my foot while climbing the stairs so I'll go to see a doctor first, then go meet my friend."
"What! Do you want me to go with you? I'll tell the others to see here…"
"No, no, its ok Erza. I can manage. I can drive my bike, so it won't be a problem. And if there IS a problem, I can call Gray, right? So, don't worry and attend your meeting, its important for the trip. Tell me later what all they told you, ok?"
"Hmm…are you sure you'll be fine?" Erza was worried for Jellal, since he really wasn't able to walk.
"Yes, don't worry." Jellal smiled, confirming that he will be ok.
"Okay then, I know you can handle it if you're saying… I'll be going back then, take care of yourself, Jellal!" Erza smiled at him, hugged him lightly then went back in the meeting room.
Jellal then head then out the Sabertooth Headquarters slowly but still painfully and summoned his bike when no one was looking. He took out his android smartphone, then messaged Gray.
Oi Gray. I've actually sprained my leg… can you message me the address of a clinic somewhere around? Or a medical shop, so I can get myself some pain killers for now, so I can at least work right now and then rest later so my leg gets healed.
But, fast please. After this I gotta go meet 'him'. 'His' tour is confirmed, will go get 'him'.
Then after about a minute, Gray messaged back.
What! How did that happen? Well, tell me when I see you later. I don't really know about any clinic around, but there's this medical shop here just 2 blocks from the Airport. I'm just passing from there, I'll get you pain killers. Where to meet?
'He's coming? AWESOME! We can go there together, we're meeting anyway.
Also, what happened to the meeting of the dragons? Everything fine?
Then Jellal messaged back.
Hmm, ok buddy, let's meet at our Fairy Tail branch of Sydney, since its same distance from both our locations. From there we'll go to 'him'. Just tell Mira, Juvia, Gildarts and Master. Though I suppose Master would've got the message already.
Everything's in control, no worries. They'll be attending their meeting then going back to the mansion. Oh, the address to the mansion so the others can reach. Jelarl the little boy knows, Erza said, so to go with him, he knows Sydney streets pretty well.
Gray then gave the final message.
Alright. :D
After that, Jellal called 'him'.
J: Hey Buddy.
He: Yo Jel.
J: I'm coming over in a while with Gray; you prepared for the trip?
He: I definitely am, since I'm damn excited for the trip; not that, I'm even more excited to finally meet that little crush of yours, whom you always sing praises to! ('HE' knows that Erza is also on this trip, Jellal told him earlier.)
J: I'd rather like it if you just shut up a little. *blush*
He: No. And please, don't blush while on the road. You'll look like a bear.
J: SHUT UP! I'm coming over. See ya later.
He: At least show me your bear face before han-
AND, Jellal hung up. He couldn't have handled 'his' teasing anymore. Then off went Jellal on his bike to Fairy Tail Sydney. And this time, he drove normally like a normal person.
Present
Fairy Tail Sydney
Time Check: 2:45 PM
Jellal reached Fairy Tail's Sydney branch, Fairy Tail Sydney. He stood outside the building and took a good look. Well, he really couldn't get that good of a look, because he was having neck aches in an attempt to see the top of the building.
Okay, This. Meant. War. The Sydney branch of Fairy Tail was Too. Damn. Big. Large. Huge. Or whatever. The main headquarter wasn't this prestigious as this one! And even more of all, 'he' got to work here as well! Totally not fair, right? Jellal stood there, outside the building with an open mouth for like 5 minutes, before Gray arrived and then made him close his mou- sorry, Gray arrived and stood there with his jaw touching the ground beside Jellal.
Then they glanced at each other. Blinked. Blinked again. AND, shouted.
"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!" Random people from the streets stopped and looked at the two annoyingly.
"What do you two want? Standing and shouting in front of our building like monkeys. Never seen a building this big?" An official walked out of the building and addressed the two friends.
"Hey, shut up, random guy! We have rights to all Fairy Tail branches, no exceptions." Gray growled at the man in anger, he was already so angry to know that the Sydney branch was even better than the headquarter.
Jellal nodded in agreement to Gray.
"What? Come on, don't lie now. Just leave, you're making a ruckus in front of the building which, by the way, is tarnishing our reputation so if you would just step asi-!" There, the poor guy fainted. Guess what happened?
The pedestrians stopped to look at the scene with two young boys showing off some kind of tattoos they have while a guy in suit with an open jaw fainted before them.
Yes, Jellal and Gray showed him the phoenix tattoo on their arms, and the guy fainted like, obviously, because The Blue Phoenixes were the best band Fairy Tail had and were like, VIPs because they and their manager were directly under the owner, Master Makarov.
Then, Jellal and Gray picked the guy up, led him inside to the infirmary and went back outside.
"Ok, THAT, was totally weird." Gray commented.
"Totally man..ow…give me the pain killers already now!" Jellal stood on one foot and clutched his sprained right ankle.
"Yeah, sorry I almost forgot. Here buddy," Gray took out a bottle from his trouser's pocket and took out one pill from it. "Oh wait, I didn't get water…"
"Well…damn."
"Oh no, don't worry, I'll just get it from inside, hey."
"Ok go."
Gray went inside the huge glass building again and to the cafeteria with the directions given off on the floor, that is. There were stickers about on the floor, which were arrows to certain places.
He asked for a bottle of mineral bottle, showed off his phoenix mark again so he won't have to pay (lol, where would he keep his money? On the plane, he was taking out his clothes very often, so while on the plane, he gave off his wallet to Juvia, so he don't have money. He forgot to take back his wallet) and finally went out again.
"Here, now take this." He gave the pill and the water to Jellal. Jellal took it and then sat back on his bike. Gray sat back on his too.
"Come on, let's roll." Jellal said and off went they both to pick up 'him'. (Oh hey btw, they were wearing helmets, ok? Safety is important these days! xP)
Present
4/77, Aston Eve, Sydney (the address is not real.)
Time Check: 3:00 PM
Jellal and Gray finally reached 'his' house. They parked their bikes in his garage, and walked to his door. They rung his doorbell. And after a few brief moments, the door opened.
"Yo guys! I was waiting for you two! Long time no see!"
-To Be Continued
And done! Lol, well another cliffhanger, eh? JUST WHO IS 'he'? Hmm? Well, watch out for the next chapter, because next time, 'he' would finally be revealed!
So, Stay Tuned, see you next time folks! Read and Review pls, they're my fuel!
