Woohoo! I just finished typing this! Productive aren't I?

Rin123 (guest)- here you go! Sorry there's not much Gray. I'll add more in the next chapter.

I added Gray o the poll since it was requested.

Rogue- 3
Laxus- 2
Sting- 1

(Rogue's POV)

Isn't that the guy who beat Jura? What's he doing here?

"Can one of you help me up please? My legs feel dead." I heard Lucy ask me and Sting. She looked a little embarrassed at needing help to stand. As Sting was too busy complaining about me being the worst best friend that ever existed, I bent down and picked Lucy up bridal style. She had a cute blush on her face. It made her look adorable.

"I ask again. What are you two doing to Blondie?" the guy asked, I think his name was Laxus. Lucy looked at him and gave him a smile. I don't know why but I felt a little jealous at her smiling at him.

"They're helping me train Laxus," she told him, so his name is Laxus; I thought so, "what are you doing here? Where are the rest of your team?"

"They're at the guild, I wanted to get away from Natsu's constant whining" he told us. Natsu whines? I was surprised by this.

"Why is he whining this time?" she asked him. So he whines a lot. Sting was sitting on the ground looking at Lucy then Laxus.

"He's whining because you left him all alone and didn't take him with you" he told her as if it was so obvious. At this Sting burst out laughing. We all looked at him.

"I didn't expect Natsu to be the type to whine, I thought he was the serious type" he explained. This time it was Lucy and Laxus who laughed.

"Pfft, Natsu, serious" she laughed in my arms. I enjoyed watching her laugh. It made me smile which I quickly concealed.

"Anyway if they're helping you train then why was he on top of you" he asked while pointing at Sting. Lucy went red and Sting smirked. Laxus raised an eyebrow.

"We're trying to improve her stamina and strength without magic" I told him as I kicked Sting because his smirk annoyed me for some reason. Lucy was still red from Laxus' question.

We all walked back to camp. Lucy called out Virgo and asked her to prepare some more tents. When she left Sting looked at her.

"I didn't think you punished your spirits, makes sense though, you are violent" Sting teased her.

(Lucy's POV)

I tried to get up to kick him but my legs refused to do so. I was annoyed at him. Can't he wipe that annoying smirk off his face? How does Rogue stand this guy? He can be so infuriating!

"Laxus," I whined "shock him please" Laxus raised an eyebrow at me.

"Why?" he asked. I explained to him that my legs were sore and why.

"He made you carry him?" he asked. I nodded.

"But he's really annoying so please shock him" I begged. Laxus shrugged and did as I asked. To say Sting was annoyed was an understatement, he was pissed and glared at me as I laughed my head off I looked to Rogue who was sitting next to me and he was trying to hid his smile.

"What the hell? And why can he call you Blondie and I can't?" he shouted

"Simple, because there's really no way in which I can stop him and if I kicked him he wouldn't be please" I explained. I turned to Laxus.

"Are you staying?" I asked him. He thought for a moment.

"Yeah why not there's no point in going back to the guild until you return because flame brain will just annoy the hell out of me. Since you left he challenges everyone he sees and quite frankly it pisses me off" he told me.

"How is that any different from how he normally is? He always challenges you anyway" I asked. He sighed.

"But now it's even worse. He says he's bored because there's no Lucy to tease" he told me. That's just like Natsu to fight everyone because I'm not there to make fun of.

"Well I'm going to go rinse off in the nearly river" I saw Sting smirk. "Don't you dare follow me Sting or I will kill you, you pervert" I looked at Rogue. "Please make sure he stays here" he nodded so I went to get some clothes and went to the river. "And that warning goes for you too Laxus"

"Can Fro come too?" Frosch asked me. I looked at Rogue and he nodded so I took Frosch and looked at Lector asking him if he wanted to come too. Sting looked like he just had a brilliant idea. I narrowed my eyes at him.

(Laxus' POV)

I saw Sting look at Lector and tell him to go there for a second. I saw Blondie narrow her eyes at him.

"Tell me what she looks like later okay?" I heard him whisper into his exceeds ear. Blondie didn't hear him but still looked suspicious of him, and for good reason. I growled and heard Rogue growl too.

I hit Sting over the head at the same time that Rogue did. Blondie looked at us confused.

"Why did you do that?" she asked us.

"No reason" I looked at Lector, "don't do what he said" I told him. Lector nodded and went to follow Blondie. I looked at Rogue.

"Why aren't you guys at your guild?" I asked him. He told me that they got kicked out because of the Grand Magic Games. Sabertooth sounds like a real horrible place. Sting was still knocked out.

"How do you tolerate this guy?" I asked him while pointing at Sting with my thumb.

"You get used to him" he shrugged. If it was me I would've killed him years ago. We talked about training when we heard a scream. It was in the direction of where Blondie was. We were both hesitant because she would kill us if we went there. But we soon leant the reason.

"LOKE GO AWAY!" she shouted at him. I burst out laughing. Rogue looked at me confused.

"It's one of her spirits, he's a real pervert and a flirt" he looked shocked. "He's Leo the lion" I told him

"The leader of the twelve zodiac keys is a pervert?" he asked.

"That's an understatement" I told him. I explained how Lucy got Loke's key, which I learned from Mira and Freed, and how he now claims to be deeply in love with her. He was shaking his head at the end of the explanation.

"He sounds like that guy from Blue Pegasus, I think his name is Hibiki" he told me.

At blue Pegasus

Achoo!

Back to our characters (hehe I couldn't help myself)

"Now that you think of it, they are quite similar" i said. I saw Blondie coming back. She looked furious. I laughed at her.

"IT'S NOT FUNNY! It's bad enough that Natsu does that!" she screamed at me, which woke up Sting.

"Natsu walks in on you in the bath?" I asked. I was shocked, I knew that he was an idiot but not this much of one.

"And always tries to sleep in my bed with me and cleans out my fridge and walks in when I'm changing, so does Erza and Gray" she said, fuming.

"Lucky bastard" I heard Sting mumble. Rogue then hit him telling him to stop being a pervert in a monotonous voice. Lucy gave him her best death glare.

"I can ask Freed to put up some runes to keep them out if you want?" I offered. She looked up really happy.

"Thank you Laxus" she said as she gave me a hug which surprised me but I returned it.

We then spoke about lots of things till it was night. I was annoyed when Fantasia can up. Sting looked at me.

"Seriously, you did that? You turned Lucy to stone?" he asked me shocked. I told him to shut up.

"Well technically Evergreen did, but I forgave Laxus ages ago" she told them. I was happy that Blondie forgave me and my team. Natsu and Lucy were the first to forgive us, I smiled at the memory.

~2 and a half months later~

(Normal POV)

Laxus' training was as harsh as Sting and Rogues. Lucy broke her ankle which effectively ended their raining. We were packing up; Virgo was packing for Lucy since her ankle was broken. She looked at Sting and Rogue.

"What are you guys planning on doing now?" she asked them.

"We really don't know, we didn't think of it" Rogue asked. The thought of departing from Lucy really upset them.

"I know," she said sitting up straight, "Come with me to Fairy tail" (the moment the title makes sense)

They looked at her. She had a sweet smile on her face. In truth, Lucy didn't want to leave the two; she had grown quite attached to them, even with Stings perverted ways.

"Do you think we could?" Sting asked

"Don't be stupid" Laxus said, "If I can re-join after what I did I don't think gramps will have any problem with you joining" At hearing this Fro and Lector were jumping around in happiness.

Sting and Rogue smiled at their exceeds antic. They decided that joining Fairy tail was a good idea and they would get to see Lucy everyday.

After a train ride filled with Stings complaints, until Laxus knocked him out, they were finally in Magnolia. They took turns carrying Lucy to the guild.

(Gray's POV)

I heard the doors open when I was looking for my pants. I turned to see Lucy. I smiled, I had missed her. The team just wasn't complete without her and now that she was back ash for brains would finally stop sulking about feeling left out.

I was about to go an greet her when I stopped and narrowed my eyes. Why was Laxus carrying her?

What do you think?
