Hey! Sorry it's taken me so long to update! Before we get to the story I want to do a shout out to Alex Darklight, who always reviews my story without fail! Honestly it means so much to me, thank you so much! And thank you to everyone else who reads my story!

Now on with the tale!

I don't own fairy tail, if I did, everyone would have hockey tournaments each week.

Laxus POV

Laxus moved his head to avoid another hurling cup coming towards him. Acting as if nothing happened, he nonchalantly took another sip of his beer. He sighed in annoyance, turning to face the guild. As soon as word got out that the guild had extra alcohol, it didn't take ten seconds for the guild to turn into its regular mad house. Most of the guild had already started meaningless fights, while the rest were off doing some idiot brained scheme of their own. Laxus rolled his eyes. Did no one in the guild have any tolerance for alcohol what-so-ever?

"'Ello Laxus!" Laxus turned towards the voice. Evergreen was walking towards him, a bit on the tipsy side.

Laxus nodded towards her. "Ever, shouldn't you lay down on the beer a bit?"

Evergreen laughed. "Awl, but it's no fun without some!"

Laxus raised an eyebrow. "Since when did you drink beer anyway?"

Evergreen just laughed, and plopped down next to him, ignoring his question. "By the way, I'm pretty sure Freed is yelling at some table because it insulted your honor or something." Laxus just shrugged. Just then, Evergreen looked up, and almost dropped her glass. "You're right, I've had too much." Laxus frowned, and followed her gaze. His jaw almost dropped. There was Natsu, walking away from the fight, looking bored as heck. Natsu, walking, away, from, a fight? Those words just didn't fit together. Natsu walked over to their table, yawning, as he sat down. Ever and Laxus starred at him for a moment.

"Natsu, are you feeling ok?" Evergreen was the first to speak.

Natsu looked at her. "Huh, why wouldn't I be?"

"Usually you're in the middle of the fight acting like a monster Frankenstein." Laxus cleared up.

Natsu just shrugged. "Aw, guess I'm just not feeling it." Laxus and Evergreen looked at him for clarification. "Well, just look at this party! Sure everyone looks like their having a good time, but this party just seems empty. It seems like we're celebrating at a funeral or something." Natsu put a hand behind his head. "Man, I don't know what it is, but if feels like, man I don't know!"

"We're missing something." Laxus stated, remembering his conversation with Erza earlier.

Natsu snapped his fingers. "That's the word I'm looking for!" Natsu yawned. "Well, I'm off to bed, no use staying around here!" Natsu got up, and walked out of the guild, no one else noticing his absence. Laxus starred at his drink, trying to ignore Gray singing, 'bringing Sexy back.' (By Justin Timberlake) wondering about what Natsu said. If it was just him, Erza and Mira who noticed it, it could be overlooked, but now Natsu? Something seriously was up.

"What you up to boy?" Laxus looked behind him, to see Master walking towards him.

"Old man." Laxus greeted, as his grandfather jumped up onto the seat next to him.

"So Natsu has sensed it too huh?" Master said, watching the carnage of the guild.

Laxus didn't look at the Master. "Any idea what's going on?"

Master nodded. "I looked into it earlier. It seems that some spell has been cast on our guild."

Laxus looked at him, looking much less alarmed then he probably should have. "A spell? Are we going to do something about it?"

Master's eyes were focused intently on his hands. "It seems that the caster of this spell is extremely powerful. I haven't seen anything this complex for a long time." Master sighed. "It would take months just to figure out exactly what the spell is. Since it doesn't seem to be doing any damages I'll let it slide for now, until I see that it's causing some damages." Laxus nodded. It slightly annoyed him that they weren't going to do anything at all, but right now he didn't care. Laxus noticed, Wendy, trying to talk down a drunken Erza, and smiled a bit.

"Ahh!" Laxus turned to see the young girl hide underneath the table.

He rolled his eyes. "Kid, you don't have to hide underneath the table every time a fight starts."

She peeked one eye open. "But it's scary out there!"

"Hey didn't I promise that I wouldn't let you get hurt?" she nodded. "Well don't you trust me? Come on back up, I'll treat you to an ice-cream." The girls eyes sparkled, she jumped up and sat on the seat like an expectant puppy dog. Laxus raised an eyebrow. "Well, I should bait you with ice-cream more often." The girl smiled up at him.

Laxus looked around, trying to think of something to say. "So, what magic can you do with those cards of yours anyway?"

The girls' eyes shined. "A bunch of stuff. I can communicate with people who are far away, summon all different things, use different elements,"

"Including lighting?" Laxus asked, interested.

The girl's eyes dimmed slightly. "No, I can't. I always wanted to, but Lightening cards are rare, and mommy wasn't able to find one. I can't find one either."

Laxus nodded, storing that information for a later date. "Anything else?"

The girl put a finger to her lips, thinking. "I can do a little bit of fortune telling."

"Fortune telling?" Laxus asked.

She nodded. "Only a little. I'm not very good at it."

"Show me." Laxus asked.

The girl looked nervous. "Ok. Is a general fortune good for you?"

Laxus shrugged. "Whatever works for you." The girl nodded. She reached into her pack, and piled out a stack of cards.

"Pick three." The girl said. Laxus raised an eyebrow, but he picked three from the pile, and placed them face down on the table. "Now put your hand on the cards." Laxus did what she said. She reached her hand, and held it just above his, her hand glowing above his. Laxus watched as the light died out. Then she grabbed the cards, and flipped them over. "See this first one?" Laxus studied it. It had champion signs on it, with lightning bolts in the background. "That means you're going to be really strong, thought of as a champion by most." She looked to the next one. "See how this one has a man, looking down two paths, but going down one?" Laxus nodded. Down the path he had chosen, there was a small pit of fire, but farther on, there were patches of grass and flowers. "This means there you're going to make some big mistakes, but those mistakes will help you grow, and you'll become stronger because of it. Now this last one." she pointed at it. On it were two younger children, a boy and a girl, holding hands, but it seemed like the boy was holding on slightly to tight, and the girl was wincing back in pain."This shows that you will fall in love with someone that you've known for a long time. Not necessarily your entire life, but a good chunk of it. But it also shows that your mistakes will really hurt her, and the two of you will drift apart."

"Will we get back together?" Laxus asked.

The girl looked up at him. "Possibly, can't say." After a moment of silence. "But I think so. At least if you're asking my judgment."

Laxus nodded. "How about I get you that ice-cream now?"

"Laxus, Laxus?" Laxus' eyes snapped back to attention, as he looked down at his grandfather.

"Huh?" Laxus asked, unintelligent-ly.

Master sighed. "I was wondering if you had any missions planned."

Laxus nodded. "E, right. Tomorrow my team and I are heading out to catch some bandits or something in some forest near a small town."

Makrov nodded, studying his grandson's face. "You alright m'boy?"

Laxus just nodded. "Err, yeah, I'm fine." He said, distracted. "That girl again." Laxus thought. The dream was different this time too. "Say pops." Makrov nodded. "Did we, was there ever, a brunette girl, a card mage, I think, who came here? I might have played with her as a kid."

Makrov tilted his head, thinking. "A brunette card mage. Not to my knowledge boy. Why?"

Laxus shook his head. "No reason. It's probably just the alcohol talking."

Cana POV

Cana jumped out of the train, and stretched out her arms. "Aww feels so good to be back!"

Damien stepped out behind her. "You sound like an old lady."

Cana glared at him. "Oh shut up." Cana said pouting.

Damien laughed, and threw an arm around her shoulder, hugging her closer to him. "Alright, let's head to Mrs. Goodworth's bakery." Cana's eyes shinned, as she grinned. She walked out of her boyfriends grasp, and started walking into the town. She smiled, the laughter of children from the small school house ringing in her eyes. She loved this town. Soon enough, she got to the center of town, and found Mrs Goodworth's bakery.

She kicked open the door, and stepped in and called. "I"M BACK!" everyone turned to look at her. Smiles soon grew on everyone's faces, as they recognized her.

"Hey! It's little old Cana!" Cana looked up to see Mr. Trench walking towards her. He was a larger man, with an orange mustache, but he had a kind smile. He worked at the Magic items store in downtown. He grabbed Cana and picked her up in a bear hug. "Well, look at how much you've grown lass! Why, I remember when you were just a wee ol' toddler, and you used ta come to my shop looking for them cards of yours with yer mother!"

Cana laughed, or at least tried to, as she struggled to breath. "h-hey Mr. Trench, would you mind letting me down?" Mr. Trench blinked in surprise, before setting her down.

"Stop hogging the poor girl Trench!" Cana turned to see Mr. Johnson, a farmer for the town, and Damien's Uncle. He smiled at Cana. "Cana darling, how you been?" he asked, pulling her into a firm hug, her breath came out in an oof.

She smiled. "Fine thanks, hey how's the farm doing? Damien told me you were having some trouble with one of your horses."

Mr. Johnson smiled. "Nothing I can't handle. I may be old but I'm not quite that old!"

"Stop suffocating the girl!" Mrs Goodworth called from over the counter. She was a bit big, but nothing to noticeable. She wore a large white apron, covered with cooking stains. "Cana must be tired from her long travel to get here." She turned and smiled at Cana. "Hey sweetie, want anything? It's on the house!"

Cana smiled, taking a seat at the counter. "Thanks, I'm starved! I'll take a bottle of beer, and a slice of apple pie."

The lady frowned. "Oh, I'm sorry darling; we're all out of pie." Cana's jaw dropped, her facing looking like a heart broken kittens. Mrs. Goodworth laughed. "I'm just messing with ya sweetie. You know I always have some on stock!" Mrs Goodworth turned. "Hey Esther, grab me a beer would ya?"

Esther turned. She was a young girl, around Cana's age. She had pretty green eyes, and blond hair, held up in a bun. She wore a waitress' outfit, a green dress with a white apron. She smiled. "Sure, just give me a sec." She smiled, running over to give Cana a hug. "Cana, it's been so long, I've missed you!"

Cana laughed, "Essie, your talking like an old lady. I will not have my best friend turn into an old lady before I do!"

Esther laughed. "I'll be right out with that beer for you!" she said, walking into to kitchen. Cana smiled, as some people from town came to crowd around her.

"So how have you been?" Cana looked up to see the blacksmith there, smiling down at her. "What have you been up to?"

Cana shrugged, Damien walking over and sitting next to her. "Oh it wasn't that big. Magnolia is an ok town, but Damien here only let me shop for a little while, and I couldn't find any good bars."

All the people around her frowned, and looked at each other. "That's great Cana, but what have you been doing all this time? You must be doing more than shopping and going in bar's." Mr. Johnson asked.

Cana shrugged again. "Well other than train rides, there wasn't much to do. I mean I was only gone for three months."

Everyone starred at her for a moment. "Three months?" they asked simultaneously.

Cana nodded. "Well I'm not sure how accurate that is. You'd have to ask Damien, since I was drunk the entire time. Even though we've been going out for six months, I still don't entirely trust my boyfriend."

Just then, a crash of glass was heard. Everyone turned, to see Esther standing there, a broken bottle at her feet. Her eyes were slightly watery, her hands were shaking. "B-B-B-BOYRFIEND!?"

Hey everyone! I know this one took a while to do, SORRY! I'm not too happy with how the scene at Fairy tail turned out, but I wrote it pretty late at night, so I guess I wasn't in tip top shape. I hope you liked it, and please Review! :D
