Chapter 2: A Born Coward


It was really sunny at Edolas that day. Everyone at Edo-Fairy Tail is drinking and partying. Today is the only break of their guild this week. A week after the return of the prince and the homecoming of their Earthland selves, Fairy Tail found a new purpose for their guild. Magical Engineering, that is what the King, Jellal, asked them to do with the help of the only creatures in their world that has magic inside them, the Exceeds. The prince somehow convinced the Exceeds to work with them in building weapons for the soldiers and themselves. The Fairy Tail members make or invent weapons for battle and the Exceeds will power them. That is the team that is made through this project. They still do mission for the citizens who need them but they focus on making weapons.

Their partying was interrupted when Lucy Ashley kicked the door of the guild and shouted for help. "Someone call Wendy or Mira!" She was carrying an unconscious boy with dark red hair aging not less than 13 years old. "This is an emergency!"

"What happened to that kid?" Levy asked, while drinking a glass of wine. After the Earthland incident, Lucy and Levy grew a bit closer. They still fight but not as often as before. Lucy took a deep breath and said "I will explain later but for now let's save this kid!"

Lucy went to the infirmary and lay the boy down on one of the beds. Inside the infirmary there was Wendy. Her eyes grew wide when she saw the patient. "Dylan?" She murmured. "No, he can't be Dylan... He should be the same age as me..." Wendy said as she clean the wounds and wraps it with bandages. He really looks like Dylan, Wendy's mortal enemy, who is now working at the kingdom as one of the General in charge of training new soldiers how to battle. 'What if this guy is his little brother? Wait, does he even have a brother? ' Wendy thought.

"Umm, Wendy..." Lucy said "I think you are putting too much bandages..."

Wendy snapped out from his thoughts and saw how thick the layer of bandages was. She blushed and began removing the unnecessary layers. "He will be okay, he just need rest and time for his wounds to heal..."

"Do you know this guy, Wendy?" Lucy asked.

"He looks a lot like the boy I knew from the Kingdom..." Wendy replied "Why is he covered with blood?"

"I do not know..." Lucy looked down. "I just found him unconscious at the cliff near Louen..."

"Well, let him rest for awhile and she would be fine." Wendy said. "Now, did you bring the supplies for the equipments?"

"Of course, but I asked Natsu to drop it in front of the guil-"

The teenagers heard shrieking noises. They immediately run to the guild hall and saw where the sound came from. It came from Natsu Dragion, the bipolar racer from Edolas, who is under several scraps of metal. The pink head appears to be calling for someone's help but ended up being laugh at by most of the guild members. Seeing Natsu in this pathetic state immediately annoyed Lucy. She lifted Natsu and smiled darkly at him. Natsu immediately began sweating from fear.

"Didn't I tell you to bring those in front of the guild carefully?!" Lucy wrapped her legs around Natsu's neck and screamed "Take this! Screw drive Crush!"

"I-I-I give up, Lucy! Sorry!" Natsu said sobbing from pain.

"You guys are so close! It looks like you like each other!" Levy, Lucy's ultimate enemy, said covering her mouth with her fingers grinning at Lucy. Lucy blushed and suddenly let go of Natsu.

"Oooh, Moving away because I'm correct?" Levy again mocked.

"You wanna pick a fight, Levy?" And viola Levy and Lucy once again started fighting. While Levy and Lucy are fighting, Natsu slowly went to the clinic to find a first aid kit. He passed by the kid that he and Lucy picked up. The kid was sleeping comfortably. Natsu wondered how the kid got in that cliff and how did he got those bruises. 'It's weird' Natsu thought. 'But, at least we found you alive...'

The boy's eyelids open and revealed a pair of purple eyes that caused Natsu to panic.

"Na-natsu... Dragneel?" The kid said out loud. "Is that you?"

"Eh, No! I am not! I am Natsu D-dragion!" Natsu stuttered.

"No, I am sure of it! You are Natsu Dragneel!" His eyes sparkled making Natsu more nervous. "I am Dylan! Your biggest fan!"

Natsu stared at him with wide eye. Normally he would be scared but seeing this kid, Dylan, made him feel like he is not a born coward.
