And so the Fantasia parade went on, Mongolia as oblivious to the violence as before. Gajeel was sitting in the sick bay along with the other two S-class mages and Natsu. Marakrov, who had previously been away on a mission- a mission to renew his Magic Boy subscription that is- and thus, when he found out what his grandson had been doing, raged. The Tiny Titan tossed out the Thunder Dragon. He was sad, and he told Laxus that he could return when his heart grew six times larger.
Levy, despite having little to no injury, was currently sitting in the hospital wing as well. She looked up at Marakrov, who had just entered the room.
"Levy," he said, his voice laced with sadness,"I regret to inform you that your punishment, aka being here at Fairy Tail, is over. I hope that you stay, but I know that you won't. I*sob* Just tell me when you want the mark removed..." the Tiny Titan turned and started to walk away when and equally tiny bookworm jumped out of her seat, almost giving the old man a heart attack.
"But...But I don't want to leave!" she cried.
Sobbing, the guild master turned and hugged his new daughter. In another room, not far away, Gajeel had heard it all, and boy was he happy that his Shrimp was staying. Smiling, he drifted back to sleep.
...
Juvia sighed as they entered the guild hall. She had told Gray that he was released of his duties: he can leave. But Ice Prince didn't want to leave. Juvia quietly swore, angry that that bastard messed with so many of her emotions. She watched the stripper talk to a bandaged up Natsu like they were old chums. She shook her head and went to go talk to Mira about the mission.
...
"... and then, you won't believe this, the thing got back up again and by [insert Fairy Tail Deity Here], you won't believe what she said. She said,'If that F*CKING thing doesn't stay down the next time we take him out, Juvia swears that she will wish that that monster had never left his mommy back at the gates of HELL!' It was hilarious! We took it down in the end. Juvia basically covered Mr. Flames in enough water to keep down his burning skin's temperature to something Freezable."
Just then he was interrupted by Juvia, who said," And then Stripper Prince over here turned him into a Fire-sickle. we would have brought it, but it was too much."
But Natsu had only payed attention to the fourth word in the story."Prince?" he thought aloud.
Juvia blushed and murmured something unhearable. Gray went wide eyed while Natsu burst into his crazy laugh.
...
Gajeel had thought that his recovery would be nice and peaceful. Levy proved him wrong.
She had been reading night and day about the fastest magic to heal wounds. She had tried everything from chicken-noodle-soup to frog legs. Gajeel just rolled his eyes and quietly complied. If his bookworm wanted to play doctor, she could do anything her pretty face desired. Not that he would ever say that. He just grunted through his bandages and watched Levy read and work. Had it been anyone else, he would have told them to F*ck off and that he was fine. But Levy... he blushed as a embarrassing thought occurred.
Levy looked up and saw the Iron Dragon's face go red. She panicked. Did he have a fever? instantly she went into overdrive, taking his temperature and reading about fevers. She would not let her man leave her. Before Fairy Tail, she remembered, I wouldn't have cared if some guy was beat within an inch of his life or he lost it. But now... She new that if Gajeel ever died... not a good thought. Think happy thoughts...
Levy's face turned blood red as her thought turned from happy to something found in M rated fanfics. Gajeel smiled and laughed. He wondered who she was thinking about.
...
Three days later, the Parade was on. Each team was in a group, doing their own float. Due to their dragon magic, Natsu and Gajeel had made speedy recoveries while Erza and Mystogan were stuck to the side lines. Team Natsu did a huge display of fire, water, and music. Lucy later regretted wearing a white shirt that day due to Aquarius spraying her with water.
Juvia and Gray had made a giant ice castle complete with ice mermaids that swam in the water which sprayed into the sky.
But by far the best float was Team Metal Gears. Levy sat in a beautiful dress, sitting atop a rose throne, complements of Droy. She shot out little Solid Script:Stars into the crowd, amazing them. Mean while Jet zoomed around the float, shooting off firecrackers all around. But the real amazement was Gajeel. Over his years he had learned how to make it look as if he was a real Iron Dragon. He pretended to be the dragon that guarded the princess in the tower above, shooting breaths of Iron shards at the poor Knight impersonator: Droy. It didn't matter if he was able to hold his own against Erza or Natsu. Gajeel scared the Sh*t out of him.
Levy looked down over her "kingdom" and thought that the roles really were reversed. Gajeel wasn't the evil monster that kept her prisoner, he was the valiant Dragon Slayer that kept evil away from "his Shrimp." Levy decided to break the script when Gajeel raced up the tower as to keep away Sir Jet. When he looked at her, she was supposed to cower in fear. Instead she kissed him.
Happy School! Their lies a grand total of 6 days until I enter the hell that is being a freshman at highschool.
