Hello my patient friends!

I hope I caught you all by surprise with Laxus being the chicken!

I don't think many expected that, all the ideas for the other chickens, I will

tie them in somehow, but I can't tell you how yet! Thanks for your support!

Laxus' POV

I felt Akito send out a connection to all the Sohma's in the zodiac. I haven't answered in so many years that it was a struggle to send a signal back. As I did, it was refreshing to be able to reconnect with the heart of the Sohma's. I knew Akito would be surprised for my sudden reply, and he would be curious on why I did. I was more interested in seeing everyone else's reaction though, mostly Lucy's. I didn't bother to introduce myself to the other Sohma's when they arrived at the guild, none of them knew who I was anyway so it didn't matter. I didn't feel the need to become known to them, I decided to wait until the older Sohma's joined, which I knew they would, and then make myself exposed to Akito. This meeting would be the best time... I can't wait to see your faces.

Lucy's POV

We all stood in the Sohma estate waiting for someone to arrive. No one but Akito-nii-chan knew who... He refused to tell me... I pouted as I stood next to Yuki-kun. Tch... After what felt like years the two gates to the estate swung open. There was a powerful presence drawing in and I was eager to find out who it was. When he entered the room I froze up... What is Laxus Dreyer doing here? I stared at him in wonder and he gave a chuckle, "Wasn't expecting that were you blondie?" My jaw dropped and Akito-nii-chan decided to butt in there, "What do you mean Laxus?" How did Nii-chan know Laxus? Laxus laughed again, "Didn't you know? I've been in Fairy Tail the whole time! If blondie knew, she would've told you." I looked at Nii-chan ,"What does he mean?" I asked in shock. Hari-nii looked at me, "Well it's obvious you know Laxus Dreyer... He is the last member of the zodiac. The missing chicken." That's when I burst out laughing, "A c-chicken!" I really didn't see that one coming as I rolled around on the floor. This was too funny!

Laxus growled as I stood up and took a deep breath, "Laxus... Did you know I was part of the zodiac too?" He nodded, "Yea... You all were really young when I left, Lucy I don't think you were still around then. Your father took you away before I left. So the only people who knew about me were Shigure, Ayame, Hatori and of course Akito. That's the reason you haven't seen me around in the guild a lot." I nodded. It's true I haven't seen him. Bixlow, Freed and Evergreen were still sitting downstairs in the guild, with Evergreen sneaking glances at Elfman! "So you saw what Evergreen was doing?" I asked. He grinned, "Yeah! He should just be a man and make a move!" He said. I laughed, "You know I didn't think you could be this nice!" "Well I have to treat everyone the same, family is no exception!" I smiled, "I'm surprised you didn't notice Lucy. After all, I did put my arm around you when I made the battle of Fairy Tail." I gasped in surprise, "You did! I didn't even realise that I didn't turn into a horse! I was so panicked!" He chucked.

Laxus' POV

I was laughing with Lucy when I suddenly felt something hug me tightly. I looked down and saw my little brother Momiji hugging my waist with tears in his eyes. I crouched down and hugged him back, "Momiji..." He cried a river as he clung to me. I held him tight in return, "Momiji... I'm so sorry..." He sniffed, "Laxus... Laxus-nii-chan... I missed you so much!" He wailed loudly. I felt tears well up in my eyes at his emotions, "I missed you so much as well... I'm so so sorry... I don't know how to make it up to you... I... I love you so much..." I felt his little arms pull away and he looked at me with a smile, "I love you too Laxus-nii!" I smiled at him noticing he dropped the last honorific, "You little rascal!" I scooped him up in my arms in a bear hug. The rest of the Sohma's were quiet during our exchange. I could see Hatori smiling. He only meet up with Lucy again a little while ago. He knows what it's like to be a lonely older brother...

"Well what are we standing around for?! Food!" I said as I went to the dining area while still holding Momiji. Everyone laughed and followed me. I could hear people chattering about and I felt my little brother go limp in my arms. I looked down in shock then relaxed when I saw him sleeping peacefully. His eyes were puffy from crying and his nose was slightly running. My face softened as he snored softly. I gently tucked him into bed then went back to the dining room. I really missed him... I missed this environment... This family... Not that Fairy Tail isn't enough... I... I feel bad knowing that most of them have no one... but I have everything, and I didn't spend any time with them... I don't know when the Sohma's will leave me... but I know that I should love them while they're still around. I sat down with everyone else and raised a glass, "Cheers!" I yelled. My family chorused after me and I grinned. This is everything I could ever want.
