Me: I'm alive! I was too close with Diabolik Lovers, Gomen... But anyway, isn't Ayato-Kun hot? Huh? What about Shuu-Kun? I'm over him...😆😆😆
Ayato: Someone talking about me?
Me: ... Kyah! (Almost faints)
Ayato: (sighs) She doesn't own Punny Tail—
Me: Fairy Tail!
Ayato: What I said, and she doesn't own Yours Truly nor can she ever wish.
Me: (scoff) Enjoy.
"Minna!" Lucy shouted happily.
All heads turned to her, frozen.
"I'm back and won't ever leave!" Lucy shouted happily.
"Lucy!" they all called out, happily, running to her.
They tackled her with hugs, greetings and other welcoming gifts Lucy appreciated very much.
Unknown to them, someone was watching them, specifically Lucy, with a longing gaze.
"So you're back to being a part of the Team Natsu?" Lisanna asked.
"I don't know," Lucy shrugged.
Natsu pouted, clinging himself on her arm, "Aw, come on Luce! We aren't Team Natsu without you!"
Erza nodded, "I agree. Team Natsu isn't just Team Natsu with someone missing."
Gray grinned and slung his arms around Lucy's shoulders, "As do I. Even Flame Brain isn't the same without you, he cries like a baby."
"Wha— I do not! If anything, you are the one who's crying!" Argued Natsu.
"Wanna see who cried in front of Lucy, Flame Brain?" Gray challenged.
"What did you just call me?" Natsu asks.
"Flame Brain." Gray smirked, "Has your ears gone deaf from crying?"
"Oh hell no! If anything, my ears are deaf from hearing YOU cry!" Natsu countered.
"Wanna settle this outside?" Gray shouted.
"Oh you bet I wanna!"
Both stood up but a thunderous voice stops them, "Enough! We are here to get Lucy back on our team! Now I do not tolerate you two fighting for who is the crybaby!"
"A—Aye sir! I mean Ma'am! I mean Erza!" both said, sitting down and hugging Lucy in fear.
Lucy and Lisanna sighed. It feels like they were the only people on the group who are sane.
Somewhere, a certain girl was watching them and glaring at the blond haired mage, muttering, "Love Rival."
Feeling someone was burning holes on her back, she shivered and looked around and saw no one.
"Are you alright, Lucy?" Lisanna asks worriedly.
She smiled as a 'Yes.'
"Lucy!" Erza called, gaining the said mage's attention.
"Hai?"
"Join Team Natsu!" Gray, Natsu and Erza shouted, gaining everybody's attention in process.
Knowing it wasn't her place to be there, Lisanna smiled and left the table.
"Guys, I would very much appreciate the idea but... Can you at least please let me get my insignia first?" Lucy asks, sweatdropping.
"I'll go get it for you!" Natsu says, standing up. Then, he left for get the stamp, eagerly.
"I forgot something in my house," Lucy says.
"I'll go get it for you!" Gray rushed out, not bothering to ask her what she left.
"I need to go to the ladies' room...?" Lucy sweatdropped.
"I'll go get it for you!" Erza shouts, running off like the two idiots.
"Nani? What happened?" Lucy was left there, utterly confused.
"Oh, give them a break, Lucy," Mirajane says, approaching her with her usual angelic smile.
"Hey Mira. How has it been?"
"Fine actually. Well... If you include the Team Natsu being clumsier than usual while you were gone."
Lucy smiled, "Please... Do tell me what happened while I was away."
"You know, same old, same old except they were clumsier than usual..." Mira laughed. "Clumsy isn't actually the right word... More like..."
"Destructive?" Lucy guessed.
"Correct." Mira says. "What I'm trying to say here is... They're afraid to lose you again..."
Lucy smiles, "Is that why..."
"Yes..." Mira answered.
"Thank you,"
"You're welcome. Now, is that you need? I have to get back to work,"
"Yes, thank you," Lucy repeated once again.
With one last smile, Mira left Lucy.

"Lucy!" Erza calls. The toilet, literally, is on her arms.
"Lucy!" Gray calls. Her bag, the same bag she brought home, was with him.
"Lucy!" Natsu calls. Master, shouting and screaming, was on his arms along with the stamp.
"Um... Guys?" Lucy sweatdropped. "I appreciate the help but..."
She looked at them and saw three puppies waiting for her next command.
"Natsu! Put Master down!" Scolded Lucy.
Natsu whimpers like a real dog and puts Master Macarov down.
Macarov looked overjoyed that he was crying happily with glitters sparkling around him. "Thank you, Lucy! You are my savior! So... How has it been?"
The Said Mage smiled and answered politely, "Fine, Master."
"So—"
Natsu growls, "Faster! We have to time for this!"
"Be patient!" Lucy scolds once again, scowling playfully.
Natsu once again whimpers like a puppy being hit by its owner.
"Are you here to rejoin the guild, My Child?" Macarov asks.
Lucy nodded; her smile never leaving her face.
"I see... Where would you want it?" He asks.
"The same place, please."
.
.
.
"Alright! Welcome back to Fairy Tail! Let's party everyone!" Cheered Macarov. And as usual, everyone did.
"Here, Lucy!" Erza, Gray and Natsu say, giving her what she wanted just a moment ago.
Lucy sweatdropped, "Thanks guys. Thanks Natsu for the insignia even though I already have it. Thanks Gray for the bag... Which reminds me..."
"Huh?" The three all said together.
"Oh, never mind. I'll just do it later. And Erza...? I don't think I need a toilet..."
Erza blinks three times and all you could see now is Erza sulking in the corner with the words 'Failure' and 'Useless' around her. Not to mention the mushrooms growing above her head.
'Would you look at that? Princess seems very happy.'
Lucy smiled upon hearing Grandeeney's voice in her head.
"Indeed, I am." She murmured. "Reuniting with your family truly is a wonderful feeling,"
"I couldn't agree more," Both Igneel and Natsu say at the same time.
"Home," Lucy rejoiced. "I am finally home,"
Natsu grinned and slung his arm over to her shoulder. "Yes, you are. Now why don't you come join us party like we used to?"
Lucy looked at Natsu with her big hopeful eyes. Natsu grinned at her silent question and nodded.
It was night and our favorite blonde mage was just about to head home.
It was quarter to twelve when she saw someone...
"Ryos?"
"Lucille?"
