Thanks guys for reading! Once again, I do not own the characters! Sorry about not updating recently, but I'll try to be quicker in the future. Hope you enjoy!

"Aww! Lucy-san, she's a perfect angel," Mira cooed over the mini-pinkette along with most of the rest of Fairy tail. Who knew so many of them were NaLu shippers? I didn't even know that was a thing until we had arrived about an hour ago.

I didn't want to take her to the guild, but she was just as adamant about going as her father. If I thought refusing Natsu was difficult, this cherubic kid was like trying to win against Erza in a one-on-one sword fight… I was especially screwed when she gave me the Natsu smile. The perfect melt-your-heart-and-sell-your-soul smile that made me fall in love with the—did I just say love? I definitely didn't mean love! Ugh! We were nakama anyways! I can't fall in love—

"Mama," Nashi called me away from my thoughts. "Are you okay?"

I smiled. It's still awkward believing that I had a kid, especially with Natsu. But who could resist those big brown eyes and sweet face? I mean she obviously got her good looks and charm from the best parent. "Yes, Nashi."

She smiled a signature Natsu smiled, and laughed. "Well then stop being a weirdo."

The entire guild erupted into laughter except me who was deadpanned from the comment. She may have gotten her beauty from me, but she inherited her manners from her other parent. Said culprit ruffled her hair a little before he slung his arm around her shoulders. She was only fifteen and came up to his chin height already.

"Who knew that having a kid would be so much fun!" Natsu exclaimed, making the guild roll in a new bout of laughter I all but melted into the stool at the bar and hid my reddening face in my hands. Nashi took this chance to attack Natsu—another trait from her dad, and honestly, was there any other good traits from me?—and they started fighting with blazing balls of fire. Gray tried to get them to settle down, but Nashi called him an ice-cake and Natsu ambushed him from behind. He kicked the ice mage into Elfman, who yelled that fights were "Man!" and start brawling. Gajeel could never resist a fight, and Erza jumped in to try to settle everyone down, not realizing she was making it worse. Natsu and Nashi fought together as the perfect team and were unstoppable. They took down everyone and started running in circles victoriously, pumping their fiery fists in the air.

Levy took a seat beside me at the bar and giggled at the scene, while Cana sat on the counter beside us with keg at her side. We enjoyed watching the fight, and as I watched the two dance like a crazy idiot and his mini version, I couldn't stop the smile from forming. "Why didn't you tell us you were in love with Natsu, Lu-chan?" Levy asked innocently, and I blushed instantly.

"Not just that," Cana inputted, "but when did you and that dense thing have sex?" I tried not to look at her while my face burned so much. It proved I was too innocent to be talking about such dirty things. However, it didn't get past her. "I forgot you've never had a boyfriend before," she laughed. "Now you're running around sleeping with Natsu! Hmm…I wonder if he really is a dragon in bed. Well, is he Lucy?"

I opened my mouth to respond, but suddenly the lights started to flicker crazily just before they blacked out. Daylight poured through the windows so it was not too difficult to see, but it was clear and the electricity shouldn't be acting strange. Nashi backed towards the bar, her arms hugging herself tightly. "Oh no," she whispered frighteningly. "They found me."

I reached for her, and drew her into my arms. She hugged my waist and buried her face into my shoulder. "Who?" I asked her. "Who's coming after you?"

She only shook her head and pulled away. The lights started to flicker again, and she whimpered as she hid behind me. Maybe we shared another trait after all. The lights returned to normal, but the atmosphere in the guild was heavy. Everyone was on their feet, magic ready and silent. My eyes met Natsu's across the guild, and we nodded. No matter what, we would not allow anyone to hurt our daughter. We would fight until the very end to keep her safe. That was the way of Fairy Tail.

The doors to the guild exploded open, and Fairy tail readied for an attack. However, what happened next would forever change the guild.

"Gi-hee," chuckled the one who opened the guild doors. The boy stood up tall and looked around with a confident smirk. He crossed his arms as another boy who was identical to him strode in beside him. Their red eyes singled in on the iron dragon slayer. "What's up bitches?" they cackled together. The boys even wore identical outfits: black boots, dark grey pants, and black sleeveless vests. They only differentiated with their hair and the bandanna they had tied around their arms. They both has spikey hair, but one had blue hair with black tips and an orange bandanna while the other had black hair and blue tips and a gray bandana. Those head bands were the exact ones that a certain pair of mages were wearing today…

All eyes fell onto Levy and Gajeel who looked at the boys with total and utter confusion and a bit of…awe. This is how Natsu and I must have looked last night. I leaned towards the script mage and whispered, "You liiiiiiiiike each other." Levi blushed and hid her face as I had earlier. I laughed wickedly. Now I knew why Happy always did it.

The twins started chuckling at their faces. "Look Gale," the bluenette pointed at Gajeel. "Guess Pops hasn't confessed yet."

Gale smiled evilly. "Do you think we ruined the surprise, Leevi?" he inquired sarcastically. His eyes scanned the crowd until they found Levy, and his grin only become more sardonic when he noticed her distress. "Oops." The guild still stood gawking at the pair, and the boys looked at each other, displeased with the lack of enthusiasm. "Man, this time travel crap is so over-rated."

"Yeah, who cares about all this bull shit any—"

"Wait!" Gale stopped his brother and narrowed his eyes. "Is that...Wendy?"

Leevi leaned forward with his hand over his eyes. When Wendy shrieked and hid behind the master, the twins started laughing. "Man she's so tiny. Hey Gale, I bet we could beat her up finally."

"You're right," Gale agreed, and they began to stalk towards the sky dragon. Romeo jumped in their path, his fists burning. This only made the twins laugh. "Oh look. Romeo protecting his poor Juliet."

"You're so puny, kid," Leevi agreed. His arm turned into a thick iron rod. "You better step down kid. We are used to brawling you in the future and losing, but we'll make damn sure that you never fight us again."

"Leevi!" shouted a terrifying voice from behind the boys. They flinched in fear and ran underneath a table.

"Oh hell!" Leevi exclaimed changing his arm back.

"She found us!" Gale screamed.

A girl with long, elegant red hair covering her right eye entered the door way, her hands on her hips, and armor wrapped tight around her small body. She looked for the twins and narrowed her eyes in agitation when she found them. She strode angrily towards them and lifted the table with a single hand. The boys held onto each other and screamed in fear when they realized they were caught. The girl tossed the table, ignoring the fact that she chunked it onto fellow guild members.

"What did I tell you about staying together?" she yelled, picking them up by their ears. They whimpered in pain and murmured apologies. She sighed heavily and released them. "Now we have to infiltrate the guild and search for—" She looked around her, and it suddenly donned on her where she was. "Oh. Well, I guess it couldn't be helped." She flipped her hair back over her shoulder, revealing the tattoo that no doubt identical to the one her father wore. She placed a fist over her heart and announced proudly, "My name is Scarlet Fernandes, and I'm here for Nashi Dragneel."

Nashi hugged my waist from behind and made a small shriek. "She's scary…" she muttered into my back.

Scarlet turned towards the sound and drew a sword using requip magic. "Nashi. It's time to return. We must not damage the past anymore."

"No!" she shouted and stepped beside me without releasing her arms around me. "It's been ten years since I've seen my parents. Ten! If our plan doesn't work than this is the last chance that we will ever be with them again. Don't you even want to have at least a few good memories?"

Scarlet faltered, and her eyes drifted towards the beautiful dumbfounded red haired mage standing in the center of the guild hall. When their gazes met, she quickly tore away from it. "That's enough! Say no more. We will alter the past and save the future, but not like this."

Nashi started to argue, but someone else walked through the doors to speak for her. "Leave her alone, Scar." I almost keeled over at the sight. It was as if I was seeing another Gray only with hair as light as Juvia's. He kept a cool demeanor as he sauntered towards Nashi. When he was only a few feet away, he winked at her and turned to face Scarlet. "None of us have seen our parents in a long time, and it's scarred us in more ways than one." At this, Scarlet shifted uneasily and lowered her gaze to the floor. "Nashi's right. If the twins' plan doesn't work out, this may be the last time we'll ever be with them. We should at least enjoy the time we have while it's here."

Scarlet inhaled deeply, and finally let her sword disappear. She turned her back to the guild and strode out the doors. "Whatever," she retorted shortly. "I'll get the others."

The blue haired boy sighed contently and shot a sidelong look at Gray. "It's good to see you old man." He took off his coat and tossed it onto the floor. It was obvious Gray had a large influence on the kid.

Juvia crept around a table and threw her arms around Gray, and the ice mage staggered from the sudden ambush. "Oh, Juvia's so glad to have a son as cool as Gray-sama and with Gray-sama! When's our honeymoon?"

I chuckled slightly at her odd antics, and then looked from the kid to Nashi. She refused to let go, and I was fine with it, but she wore a sour expression on her face. "Well," I noted, "he does seem to be exactly like his father."

"Yes," she agreed. "But there's one trait Jay doesn't share…"

Suddenly, the kid attacked Nashi. He leaped through the air and managed to pull us apart. They landed on the ground with him latched around her. "Aww," he crooned. "Naaaaashiiii! You left me all alone, and I had to travel with the team of weirdoes without you! Where were you all this time? Did you miss me? I missed you all the time! I never stopped thinking about you! We should get married Nashi! When's our honeymoon?"

A fire punch exploded across his jaw, and Nashi shouted, "Get off of me you ice freak!" Her entire body was lit, and she completely lost her cute composure. When she was angry, she was every bit as frightening as dragon as Natsu was.

However, it couldn't stop the mini Gray/Juvia from trying. "Aww… Naaaaashiiiii!" he rubbed his swollen face. "I still love you!"

"Put some clothes on first dumb ass!" Nashi continued to roar.

Seeing his daughter being hit on, Natsu confronted Gray. "You even taught your son weird stripping habits, you damn exhibitionist!"

"It's not my fault! I didn't even know I had a son so cool down pyro!" Gray shouted back, ice collecting around his hands.

Natsu lit his hands, itching for round two today, and replied, "Oh, I'm only getting fired up!"

"Yeah! Fighting is WOMAN!"

The guild froze including the fire and ice mages. They looked towards the door where a giant girl with long green hair stood. Her silver eyes searched hungrily for a fight, and she was only too eager to battle. Elfman and Evergreen shot panicked gazes at each other. Levy had whispered a rumor to me about their secret affair a few years ago. I guess it was definitely out now.

A boy with cropped brown hair and eyes walked in beside her, a baby in his arms. He scoffed her and handed her the swaddle. "Next time Ever, try remembering your cousin," he complained and strode further into the guild hall towards the younger ice mage.

Mira gasped from behind us. "Cousin? Does that mean…" she wondered. Ever stormed over to the bar and straight to the takeover mage. As they approached, I got a closer look at the babe in her arms. She had light blonde hair, so bright it was almost silver. Ever handed her to Mira and took off to look for a brawl even though everyone else was watching the precious scene unfold. Mira smiled gently at the baby girl and kissed her forehead. The baby cooed happily.

Cana leaned closer and laughed. "Wow! Who's the lucky fellow, Mira?" she jested. She started to play with the baby's hands, and when it took Cana's finger, the girl jolted her with a powerful current of electricity. Cana yelped and jumped away from the smiling takeover mage/Laxus demon.

"Her name is Jane," Nashi explained. "She's probably going to be the most powerful mage among us when she gets older."

"No way!" the twins shouted in unison.

"I'm going to be the most powerful mage in Fairy Tail!" Gale yelled.

Leevi pushed him to the ground and pointed at himself. "No, I am!"

Gale bolted to his feet and shoved Leevi. "You just have to copy everything I do don't you?"

"What? It was my idea! You just said it first!"

"That means you copied me!"

"Not if you would have given me a second to say it!"

"If I punch you will you need a second to think about that too?"

Leevi jumped onto Gale, and they started to brawl. Nashi shook her head, and then noticed Jay trying to propose to her. She growled and began wailing on him. Finally satisfied that a fight began, Ever jumped in. Scarlet returned and noticed her team tearing each other apart and tried to separate them, but only managed to make it worse. Cane tried to sit the fight out, but Ever called him a woman so he joined to prove his manhood.

Watching the children fight felt nostalgic in an odd way. It was like watching brawls within the guild every day since I first joined. To see our children still upholding even the craziest of traditions brought a light smile on my face. Looking around, I found I wasn't alone. The guild had been oddly quiet since the youngsters arrived, and it still was, but only because we knew the very heart of Fairy Tail was still going strong even years from now. It was weird thinking of the couples… Levy and Gajeel, Gray and Juvia, Mirajane and Laxus, Elfman and Evergreen, Erza and Jellal, and even Natsu and I…

Then again, it wasn't weird. Everything just seemed to fit perfectly together. My eyes swept the guild, and I found him. His onyx eyes gazing hotly back into mine, and that smile—his smile—was just as it should be.
