The next morning was a rather quiet one. The first ones to wake were Natsu and Gray. They both looked at the site of the sleeping beauties that had arranged themselves throughout the room and smiled a bit. Lucy and Erza had lain by one another a little way from Natsu, while Miyuki still had Gray held captive. The two were very surprised by the latter. While the majority of the girls had clung near Natsu to use him as a source of heat during the cold night. Miyuki had preferred to use Gray, THE ICE MAGE, as a pillow. This action confused the two because the night had been quite chilly, and her situation didn't help anything.
The first problem they ran into was how to detach the ones that clung to them. It was easier for the pinkette because the two that he had to deal with weren't on top of him. Gray, however, had to ease his way out from under Miyuki's grasp, WHICH DIDN'T WORK, causing the youngest mage in the building to squirm and hold him tighter. Anyone could tell that she was discomforted from her pillow trying leaving her. This action confused Gray quite a bit while Natsu had started to piece it together bit by bit.
"Stop smirking over there and help me out Flame Brain! " Gray yelled in the most hushed voice he could manage at the moment, " She's a lot stronger than she looks. " he added finally getting his arm free from her grasp.
"Here, I'm going to try and pry her off of you. " Natsu said moving across the room to the couch that the resident ice mage and Miyuki inhabited. Natsu reaches down to where Miyuki had her arms latched around Gray and puts his hands on her arm.
"Ok, do it. " Gray said giving the order to begin operation: free the ice princess, so natsu calls it. Natsu begins to pull on her arms causing them to move enough that Gray can wiggle out from her. Just as Gray had successfully extracted himself, He looked up to see Natsu in pain holding his forearm.
"SON OF A MMMMMMM! " Natsu said under his breath looking down at the bite mark he had just received from the still sleeping girl, "She flipping bit me. " He explained to Gray which couldn't help but laugh at the situation that his teammate had just went through.
"Take a note down. Don't disturb Miyuki while sleeping or else she'll bite you. " He laughed out quietly as he and Natsu headed out of the living room towards the bath in the back of the house. The two had planned this last night wanting to be the first in the bath. They knew that the girls would've hogged it for quite some time. This way, they get to be the first ones to enjoy the bath, and they don't have to complain about waiting. They thought this to be what some call a win-win situation. Though Natsu now had a bite mark on his forearm that could be seen to be bleeding a bit.
( Miyuki's Pov: when she wakes up a few minutes later )
I looked around and saw that Erza had fallen asleep on our couch last night and was cuddled up to Lucy. I couldn't help but think of how cute the two looked cuddled up to one another, but my attention fell to the discomfort around me. I was sure that I had fallen asleep next to Gray last night.
'did he go somewhere without me? ' I thought as I noticed a bloody taste in my mouth. 'Oh no, I didn't bite him last night did I. ' I continued to examine my surroundings until I noticed that Natsu wasn't in the room either. I sniff the air a bit, I could still smell their scents coming from inside the house, but it was a bit clouded.
'they're in the bath.' I thought to myself as I felt a smile beginning to appear on my face as I came to the realization. 'I wonder if they'd let me join them like old times.' I thought as I started out the living room and down the hallway to the room you enter before you get into the bath. I looked around the room and found that two pairs of clothes were already put out from the two that had already entered the bath. I walk over to where their clothes were and began to undress then wrap myself in a towel. I opened the door only to notice the two were facing the other direction looking towards the steam shrouded wall.
"I'm not sure though Gray. I mean you know how I feel about them and all. " I heard Natsu say talking about someone. I was immediately interested in the conversation. Not wanting to end the conversation I lean a bit towards them as to hear them better.
"Don't worry I'm sure they like you to. I mean why wouldn't they. I still don't understand why you like the both of them. Why not just pick one? " Gray responded to him putting his hand on Natsu's shoulder.
"I know, we're good friends but that's what I'm afraid of, and It's a dragon slayer thing. " Natsu said putting his hands on his head and scraping them across frustratingly from the looks of things.
'I wonder who they're talking about. ' I wonder as I move a little bit closer causing the floor to creak. 'uh oh' Gray and Natsu both turn to the door standing up looking at my general direction, 'DAMN YOU WOOD FLOORING '.
"Who's there? " Gray asks commandingly. I have no choice but to step out from behind the door. I look at the both of them twiddling my thumbs with my hands close to my stomach.
"I'm sorry for intruding. " I tell them very apologetically with a hint of cuteness trying to ease their anger. They both look at me with a sigh of relief.
"Oh. I'm glad it's you and not Juvia or Erza. " Gray said as they both begin to sit back down.
'Ok, is that a compliment or an insult? ' I immediately think.
"But why are you in here? " He questions as I begin walking over to the bath and sit down in the warm water. The water was extremely relaxing running down my nude skin. The warmth of the water could be felt coursing down and over my body taking away all the aches and pains that I had accumulated.
"I was wondering if we could all take a bath together, ya know. like we all used to do you know. " I said in a hushed tone with a faint smile on my lips. They both look at me with questioning looks on their face. I could tell that my words sparked something. I had never wanted to bathe together with them, but that isn't to say that I didn't enjoy those times.
"Is something on your mind? " Natsu asks putting his right hand on my shoulder. I look up at him remembering things I've buried deep in my mind. All of the pain, all of the suffering, all of the regret. I could never tell any of them about it. I could never let them know what I did.
"No it's nothing you need to worry yourself about. " I tell him faking a smile while looking right into his eyes. I could see them, his eyes. They saw right through my words. As soon as I saw his eyes, I immediately looked down. This is when he spoke, and he only replied with a singular word that formed a crack in my composure.
"Liar. " He tells me bluntly, causing me to shoot up and look at him to see a serious look plastered on his face. "Is someone messing with you or something or is it something else? " He begins questioning.
"Natsu you know that no one would mess with me. " I say trying to build my composure up even a bit as to not worry him with my problems. I look down with the smile on my face. 'He's one of the few people who can actually do this to me, only a few could see when I was troubled. ' I think to myself.
"If that isn't the case then what's bothering you? " Gray asks looking at me. I look over at him to see him relaxing in the water with only his upper torso revealed from the water. A small blush appears from the sight. "If someone isn't bothering you then what is it. " He asks scooting a bit close to me. I look away and back at the water that is located in front of my breasts.
"I've just been remembering some things. I don't want to mess anything up. I'm sorry I can't tell you, but It's for the best ok. " I tell them frowning a bit causing them to exchange glances with one another.
"Idiot. " he says bluntly. I quickly in his direction. "No matter what you did it still makes you who you are, and whatever you did it won't change how we think of you. " I feel the tears start to fall on my cheeks hearing this from Gray.
"Do you really think so? " I ask him with tears falling like raindrops out of my eyes. He seems a bit taken back from seeing my tears, but he smiles back at me and nods.
"Yeah I agree we couldn't hate you even if we tried, Your like family. " Natsu added as he sat down beside me and pulled me into a hug. I begin to cry into his shoulder with the tears unable to be stopped. they flood his shoulder like a monsoon. After about 5 straight minutes or so, my tears started to stop. He looks down at me still rubbing the back of my head and hair with his hand. "Are you feeling better now? " He asks me with concern in every word he speaks.
"Yeah I really needed that, thank you. I'm fine now. Sorry that I brought you into my problems. " I reply to him while pulling him tighter into the embrace. He does the same lifting me up and pulling me into his chest.
"Ok guys I'd appreciate it if you didn't screw right in front of me. " Gray said getting rather annoyed at the circumstances for a different reason. Natsu looks at him with a smile on his face.
"Oh, you're wanting some of her then? I'll more than willingly give her to you. " Natsu asks causing a blush to appear on Gray's face. Natsu had officially put him into check, but me on the other hand. I was redder than Erza's hair after hearing the comment.
'Natsu, what the hell. Don't do that. What'll I do if he actually does. I mean it is Gray soooo… ' My mind begins to wander with my imagination. Thoughts of what Gray would do to me flood my imagination. A small nosebleed could be seen by Natsu if he looked down at my face.
"I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING OF THE SORT DUMBASS!" Gray yells back. All the meanwhile I hold on to Natsu hiding my scarlet red face in his chest.
"WHAT'S ALL THE NOISE IN HERE! " I hear Erza yell as she barges into the bath only to see Natsu, Gray, and I all naked with me clinging to Natsu with my face buried in his chest. "ahmm, I'm sorry for interrupting. " She said with a blush on her face stepping back out of the doorway completely misinterpreting the current situation among those in the bath, but what could you expect.
"DON'T GO MISUNDERSTANDING THE SITUATION HERE ERZA! " Gray yelled at her standing up in the bath. As is customary, he still has a towel on around areas that people would consider "lewd" to leave for others to see.
"Then pray tell how am I supposed to interpret you three naked with her clinging to Natsu with her back to you while you're still facing her. Well? " Erza said retelling everything she had seen upon entering the bath blinded by anger.
"ok, when you put it like that it sounds pretty bad, but there was nothing sexual going on there. " Gray said trying to clarify the situation.
"I wouldn't mind if Gray did something like that though. " I whispered under my breath while still buried in Natsu's muscled chest. The other three in the room just looked over at me. I knew for a fact that Natsu had heard me clear as day after the fact. I felt so stupid having let that slip out.
"I didn't quiet here that right. Did you just say you wouldn't mind if they did something? " Gray asked with his face getting redder than it already was.
"I heard her just fine and that sounds like what she said. " Natsu told Gray somewhat covering for my slip-up. I bury my face even deeper into his chest trying to hide my embarrassment from everyone. I hear someone's footsteps behind me walking in Natsu and My direction. From just the intent I could feel, I knew it had to be a certain redhead.
"This has gone on long enough. Your coming with me. " Erza yells bluntly ripping me out of Natsu's arms causing both of Gray and Natsu to instantly have a nosebleed from my nude figure. Apparently she had used both arms to remove me, and one had found its way onto my towel. With one swift tug, It and I separated from each other and Natsu. As Erza drags me from the bath room, my arms and legs are flailing to get out of her grasp, but she has a very tight grip on e. She drags me through the house and all the way up to my room. When we reach the door with the wood plank titled 'Miyuki' she kicks opens the door with nearly enough force to take it off of its hinges and proceeds to drag me in. She throws me onto the floor and I can feel her eyes staring down on me.
"Rxplain what you're trying to pull here Miyuki, NOW? " Erza demanded as she slams my door causing Lucy to wake from her slumber in the living room. I take a seat on my bed picking up the towel that Erza had drug along with me and wrapping it around myself.
"I don't have to explain myself to YOU of all people Erza! " I yell at her. She stares at me clearly seething with anger from my backlash.
"Oh, and why is that. You were trying to do something that nearly everyone in the guild would disapprove of with MEMBERS OF MY TEAM, SO I DAMN WELL DESERVE AN EXPLANATION! " She yelled while blocking the only escape from the room. I didn't have to do anything she said. It's not like she could ever force me to do anything, so why should that change now.
"get out. " I say quietly looking down at the floor. I see her tilt her head out of the corner of my eye.
"What'd you say? " She asked moving a bit closer to the bed.
"I SAID GET THE HELL OUT OF MY ROOM! " I yelled standing up and looking at her. I looked at her seeing a genuine shock in her eye. I had looked behind me to see what she was staring at only to see that everything, being my bed, dresser, etc, engulfed in a torrent of blue flames. I looked closer at the flames to notice that there was more in them that what you could see. Oh no, I let it slip. I look back to Erza to see her worried, but she was slowly moving towards the door.
"Ok, I'll go. If you need anything I'm going downstairs to prepare breakfast. " She says backing out of the door completely closing it slowly. I drop to my knees instantly realizing what I had done.
*sniff* "why… " I feel tears streaming down my cheeks as I look up at the flames that engulfed a portion of my room, "she could never understand. " I mutter as I feel my wings sprout from my back, more specifically my shoulder blades. They were similar to happy's wings, but they were more proportionate to my body's size. The feathers on my wings matched the silver color of my hair causing them to shine with a tint of blue in the light of the fire.
"I hate them. Everything about them. Their stupid feathers, their stupid size, their stupid existence. " I yell as I pull my knees into my chest and my wings wrap around me. The tears that had once been falling onto my towel now occupied my feathers.
"It's been a long time sense I've used them hasn't it, Xan. " I say out loud causing the homunculus to take shape from the corner of the room.
"Yes it has my Lady. " Xan said walking up behind me and putting a hand on my shoulder in what I think is his attempt to comfort me.
"I told you not to call me that. " I scolded looking around and up to face him.
"It makes me feel better by calling you that. I don't like the thought of freedom with what I am that is. " Xan replied frowning as he looked at the blue flames.
"I guess neither of us like what we are huh. I wouldn't have ever thought you'd be the type to not like what you are though. " I say laughing a bit. He looked down at me smiling. I guess he was just trying to cheer me up.
"I know the others will see you as an equal but you will always be my Lady. " Xan said moving around so that he was in front of me and began kneeling to me. I smile at him.
"Fine, you can call me that, but If you do it in public we will have problems, kay. " I tell him. He stands up and puts his arms around me bringing me into an embrace.
"I would ask nothing more than that, My time here is short. I will return upon being called. " he said walking back into the shadows beginning to return to his home, the shadow realm. I looked back to see that the fire had finally dissipated from reality and had left everything untouched.
"All of them you say. " I say repeating his words starting to get dressed for what I felt was going to be a long day. As I began walking out of my room, I sheathed my wings before getting too far down the hallway. I proceed to turn after a few steps to head down the staircase only to be greeted by Gray, who was standing halfway down the stairs. I look at him wondering why he was standing there with a grimace on his face.
"I was going to go check up on you, but Erza said not to bother you... " Gray said offering a hand to help me down the stairs. I smile at him and take his hand. "She looked pretty shook up when she left your room, are you alright, Yui? " He asked me pulling me into his arms. I felt my pulse pick up as he made this action.
"Yeah I'm fine. " I tell him trying to ease his worries. I didn't want him of all people to know about my problems.
"Good, I don't know what kind of person I'd be if I couldn't help my friend through her problems. " Gray said sighing and causing me to laugh a bit. "Hey what's so funny? "
"Nothing, I don't think I could ever see you as a bad person though. " I managed to say though my frantic laughing.
"See that's the spirit. " He said putting his arm around me and we started walking into the living room and then turned to look towards the kitchen table where Natsu, Lucy, Erza, and Happy were sitting. When we got closer to the table, I saw Eggs on the plate where I normally sat. Erza was having strawberry waffles, Natsu had Flaming Pancakes, Lucy had a fruit salad, Gray had Eggs and some bacon, and finally Happy had a few uncooked fish.
"So, I got a message from Master Makarov a bit ago saying that the coalition is meeting today so we need to start packing as soon as possible. " Erza said in a commander like tone as she takes a bite of her waffle. We make eye contact after a while, and I see that she stiffens when I looked at her. I knew why she was nervous to look at me, but I didn't want to admit it. She was my family… right. Why would my family be afraid of me, that's preposterous.
'of course she's afraid of me. It wouldn't help anything if I had told her what was wrong earlier anyway. ' I thought wanting to cry, but I couldn't. not while I was in front of them all.
"When I get done, I need to head over to my house to get some things, so I guess we'll meet at the station. " Lucy announces taking a slice of cantaloupe into her mouth.
"We'll be meeting at the station then at around 10. Make sure not to be late Lucy. " Erza says taking a drink of water.
"Yeah I'm all fired up. " Natsu says finishing his pancakes.
"You were fired up earlier too. " Gray says snickering causing me to blush. Lucy looks at the three of us raising an eyebrow.
"Do you know what they're talking about? " Lucy asks Erza only to see Erza looking at me a bit.
"It's nothing you need to worry about Lucy I've already dealt with the situation. " Erza says authoritatively looking back at the rest of the group. Soon after, everyone excluding Natsu, Gray, and Miyuki went their different ways to prepare for the meeting.
( Timeskip to the Coalition base. )
"Wow, who knew a building like this was all the way out here. " Lucy says awestruck at the beautiful marble house in front of her. The group that had left from Magnolia earlier that day had finally reached the meeting destination.
"Indeed, It's a shame that it's all the way out here where no one can admire it. " Erza says walking to the door. She opens the door and walks in followed by the rest of us. We look around only to see four people inside the building. They have Blue Pegasus' guild mark on them, one of the coalition's guilds.
"ahh, Erza-san what a strong parfume you're wearing today. It's lovely as ever. " The short man with orange/brown hair says to Erza.
"oh dear god, not you. " Erza says slamming her hand onto her face. Everyone in our group looks at the two.
"yes, it is I, Ichiya Vandalay Kotobuki, leader of Blue Pegasus' Trimens-men. " the man named Ichiya said. "and these are my associates. " he finished pointing to the three people behind him.
"Why hello there beautiful. " a tall man with orange hair said as he cupped lucy's hand. "My name is Hibiki. "
"My name is Eve. " Said a smaller blonde one as he appeared behind Lucy putting his hand on her shoulder. "it's a pleasure to meet a true goddess. "
"and I'm Ren. " said the taller and tanner brown haired man. "It would be nice if we could get to know each other better later. " All three of them dispersed from Lucy's body and appeared behind Ichiya.
"and we are the Trimens. " they all said as they struck a pose. I had to hand it to them they knew how to make an entrance. Though not many people knew it, I knew Eve personally from some work that I was on while I was away for a year. You'd be amazed to what you can find on former rune knights if you look in the right places.
"So does anyone else know who's going to be showing up besides them? " Gray asked clearly getting sick of the Trimens.
"I'm glad you asked that, Gray. " came the voice of a white haired man who just entered the front door. Gray turned around to see who it was only to be surprised and happy to see someone I didn't recognize.
"Hey Gray, who's that? " I ask him as I move behind him to hide from the approaching albino. The tall white haired man walks up to me and looks me over once or twice.
"Lyon, leave her alone. " Gray said with a hint of frustration and protectiveness in his voice. The white haired man now known as Lyon just laughs at what Gray was saying.
"I see you have good taste. " Lyon said before turning to Gray. "It's good to see you again pal. "
"last time I checked, you said you were going to join a LEGAL guild, and I'm going to go off on a limb here and say you joined a guild in the coalition. " Gray said placing all the pieces where they belonged as to the albino's story before he even spoke.
"You would be correct. Lyon here is one of Lamia Scale's aces. " came a tall man in a robe. I recognized the man as Jura one of the 10 wizard saints, that guarded Fiore and were the example of what mages were supposed to live up to.
"Oh, you're here too Jura. It's reassuring to see that you're hear. " Erza said walking up to the wizard saint and shaking his hand very excitedly. Erza hadn't ever been one to look up to celebrities, but she highly respected and looked up to the wizard saints.
"likewise to you titania. " Jura said smiling. He turned in my direction and saw me standing to the side. "and I see we have Miyuki here as well. " after that statement he laughed a bit.
"It's good to see you again Jura. " I said smiling a bit missing the tall man's sense of humor.
"Wait you two know each other. " Erza said not knowing of my connection to the wizard saint.
"yes, she met me on one of my missions, and might I say she was a wonderful help to it. " Jura said praising me a bit as he put his hand out for me to shake.
"I didn't do that much. I'm sure that you would have been completely capable of handling yourself even if I wasn't there. " I told him shaking his hand. His hand was rather cold and large compared to mine.
"Lyon-sama why'd you run off. " came a pink haired girl running in from the front door of the building. I instantly got the feeling that she was much like Juvia, and I get the slight feeling that a few others in the room have the same thought.
"I told you that I was going to run ahead and make sure this was where we were meeting was being held, sherry. " Lyon said making his case to the 2nd pinkette to enter the building.
"Ok Lyon-sama. " The girl named sherry said smiling. We all looked around a bit and something seemed off. Weren't there supposed to be more people here.
"wasn't there a 5th guild entering the coalition. " Jura asked looking around for a 5th guildmark in the room.
"I believe it was Cait Shelter, but their team hasn't arrived yet-men. " Ichiya said once again striking a pose, "We may be starting a bit later then-men. "
"I heard that they're only sending one person to the coalition. " Hibiki said looking at the register in his archive. I hear the door behind us open up behind us and look in the sounds direction.
"I think they're here. " I tell the group. We all turn around to see a small girl standing in the doorway. She looked to be around 13 years old with two pigtails tying her blue hair together. She also wore a yellow and green dress that looked quite well on her.
"I'm sorry I'm late. " the girl said as she began to run up to the group only to trip over the rug.
"This is the mage that Cait Shelter sent, She's just a girl. " Lucy said not being able to feel the power emanating off the girl. I could feel the unrefined magic strength that this small girl held. I couldn't help but smile seeing her. From the looks of it, she didn't know what she was even capable of doing.
'she has potential. ' I thought to myself watching her begin to pick herself up off of the ground.
"Wendy, I told you to wait up. " came a small white cat who was flying like happy could. "and look what you've done you've went and fallen. "
"I'm ok Carla. " the girl replied to the small cat named Carla as she landed beside her.
"What am I going to do with you. " Charla said pinching her nose clearly noting that this was not the first time that the girl had been clumsy enough to trip over something.
"Are you the one that Cait Shelter Sent? " asked Jura trying to get the room back onto a serious track of thinking. The girl cowered a bit as Jura took a step towards her. From the look of things the girl was a bit intimidated by Jura.
"y-y-yes. M-m-my name is Wendy Marvell. " She introduced. "it'll be a pleasure to work with all of you. " She finished bowing her head to the group and flashing them all a smile.
"Who knew Cait Shelter had such a well-mannered girl. " Said Hibiki smiling at Wendy. I walk over to the girl and look her over once or twice. Without drawing too much attention to myself I sniff the air a bit around her. It is surprisingly fresh compared to all of the other scents inside of the room.
"uhm, is everything ok? " Wendy asks me getting a bit weirded out by my actions. I also get a strange look from everyone else in the room, but I don't really care too much for it. I get on one knee so I'm about the same height as the girl and lean in so I can whisper into her ear privately without anyone else hearing.
"you're a dragon slayer aren't you? " I ask her causing her eyes open wide and look at me. I take it that no one had ever been able to tell so quickly before.
"How'd you know? " she asks me quietly not trying to hide her magic from me but from the rest of them.
"You just have that smell to you, but if I had to put a label on it. You have the scent of a fresh summer breeze right after a small rain. " I say smiling while backing away a bit. She was left wide-eyed from my description that I think I gave myself away a bit. I stand back up motioning to her to walk over to the group with me. With the two Cait Shelter members, the Coalition had finally met and could finally start to prepare on their plan of attack. Ichiya looked around making sure everyone was paying attention.
"I guess it's time to talk over the Strategy then. " Ichiya announced to the group, "Hibiki, bring up the screens. " And with that, the battle with the Oracion Sies has begun.

Nothing better than a cliffhanger to end a chapter on. I hope you all enjoyed the chapter. I'm not sure of if I'm going to have an uploading schedule or not but I can guarantee you that I'm working on the story very often. I may get to the point that I'm combining some of the old chapter to form a longer chapter if I necessarily feel like doing that, but I can't say that for sure. As this chapter gave away, this will be an OC x Gray ship. Sorry for you hardcore Gruvia shippers. I look forward to seeing what you all think about the remastering of the story. I've never been good at these little beginning and ending parts, but I try. I'm probably just going to have the one at the ending because it's easier to keep it all in one place then.
I don't have that much to say, so this is the official end of chapter three.
Hope you all enjoyed,
Cya Omegabacklash.
