Sort for the long wait. It was very difficult to make time for this update with all the preparation going for the exams. Next chapter will not be updated until after September. Somewhat in the end of first week of October. Again sorry for that but I am super busy.

The interior of the ship was remarkable to say the least, to have the sickness of dragon slayers pushed back was maybe it's greatest achievement. Natsu looked around himself, fairy tail members interacting with fairy tail members, well former ones anyway. They were all wearing their guild emblem proudly and on display to the world as if announcing their return.
"Natsu" with that one word all the attention I the room shifted toward the pink haired man turned boy. He looked toward the blond who had called him only to see her frown clear on her face, and a weird feeling in her eyes. "What happened to your guild mark?" Only after that question did he realise that everyone was staring at shoulder which was being exposed. Due to his small frame, his cloak was not befitting and his brother simply did not fancy him wearing his vest exposing himself. Something about modesty, so he was wearing a sleeve less turtleneck top with shorts, but that was not important. The long hairs he supported, at first due to END were never cut off so now were in a braid down his back to his knees. He knew he looked a little femine with his baby fat, and often being mistaken as one but now was not that. He could feel eyes boring into him. He shrugged feeling it was no big deal. The rukhs around him suddenly changing their momentum.
"It was not needed anymore so it was removed" the casual tone was not noted by everyone and in a misunderstanding interpreted wrong.
"Who would do such a thing?" Wendy asked, having completely missed his tone. Mira although noticed but choose to ignore it.
"Let's get your mark again. Same place?" Mira asked, smiling the same smile she always did with. Although it looked like she was not bothered, but it did bother her. And a lot.
"I thing you misunderstood. When I said the mark was removed as it was no longer a need to me it meant I myself did it." He said shaking the cold hand on his shoulder. The shock could be felt in the rukhs around the room.
"But why?" Lucy broke the straining silence with her whisper. At first Natsu did not answer as if himself did not have any answers but then he giggled.
"Don't you know why Luce? Because fairy tail is no more" he said still giggling, but it sounded more like a mod laughter.
"But we are back. Fairy tail is back" he was surprised that Erza has stayed quite and not attached in the whole process but that could be because she was just in shock till now.
"Is it really back? For you maybe. For me fairy tail is dead. I am going bac-" he did not even finish before he felt himself slip into darkness, rukhs flying around as if upset. He could only see black eyes looking at him, but they were not the soft black if his loving elder brother but of a hard caring friend.
"It's for your own good, Natsu"
The next time he woke up he could feel the silence all around him. A soft voice could be heard around, telling the story and as soon as his mind caught up with him he knew which story it was.
"I used a dark spell-"
"And now are just like Zeref and rest us three" Natsu finished for her. The wide eyes betrayed her shock which she tried to hide while rest of the guild looked at him warily. "Yo, long tine no see, Mavis Vermillion. Now I know why you saved me at the S-class trials" he said as he woke up, stretching his legs. "So tell me, Why did you betray us?"
Done. Sorry if it is small. I did not have a lot of time to type this. The new development in the manga was awesome. Well for the story anyway.
