Let's go home

Chapter 9 (conclusion)

When I woke up, I was on a train in a hospital bed. I slowly looked around and saw Kai who was looking out the window. He noticed I was awake and smiled at me. Not a jerkish punk-ass smile, but a sincere I'm-glad-you're-alive smile.

"You really caused some trouble out there didn't you? Don't answer. You shouldn't talk just rest. You'll be glad to hear that both Sapphire and Silver are alive," I smiled. That was great news. Just then, someone walked through the door. It was Jellal of all people.

"I see you are awake. You should be glad you are alive with those injuries of yours," I was about to say something but he stopped me.

"If you are wondering why I am here, I had set my sight on a dark guild called Greed Eagle and me and Meredy set out two days ago to take it out. However, the four of you got here before us," I was a little disappointed. That meant that Jellal got here after I passed out and took out Cain.

"I must ask one question though, which one of you took out their leader Cain the Elemental? He was passed out when I got to the city hall to fight him myself. I will assume it was you Kai,"

"No it wasn't me," Kai must have realized it because he turned his head and looked me. I laughed a little.

"That is quite a teammate you have Kai. Cain was on the magic councils most wanted list. He was to only be approached by S-class wizards. Anyway, I will take Cain and his crew except for him over there. He is to badly injured to take right now," looked over at whom he was talking about and saw that he was bound up almost completely. And for some reason Silver was on her knees and sleeping on the side bed. I looked questioning at Kai.

"Silver insisted that we brought him along," Kai explained

"I will see you later I suppose," Jellal walked out of the room and when he had closed the door behind him Kai turned around and hit me on the head.

"Are you totally insane!? Why did you think that was a good idea?! You could have died!" he crossed his arms and looked out the window again.

"I'm glad you're alive newbie." I laid my head on my pillow and looked at the ceiling. After a while, Sapphire came in with some food. She put it on my bedside table and sat down.

"I just finished talking to the mayor. You'll be happy to know that the villagers have started cleaning up the mess Greed Eagle made and it's coming along nicely. They also said that they might need the assistance of some wizards, and they will send a request specifically for Fairy tail. Also I got our reward," she walked out of the room and came back with a huge bag of loot.

"This should be all of it," Kai got up, walked over to Silver, and woke her up. The three of them were now standing at the end of my bed.

"Jack 'newbie' Greyhound, for your extremely stupid and dangerous actions on this mission and the fact that the girls have taken a liking to you, we have decided that weather you like it or not, you are now an official member of hyper-blade." I smiled a smile so blinding it put the sun to shame.

"Wait if we're on a train why am I not getting motion sick."

"Well we immediately went to see a healer in the town after finding you unconscious, and when he had made sure you were out of life-threatening danger, we mentioned the motion sickness and he cast troia on you. It should work until we get back to Magnolia."

"What do you mean 'we', you were the only one who went to see the healer?"

"Well… I…"

"Nevermind that puny detail. Are you feeling well Jack?"

"Considering that I almost got killed yeah I guess I'm feeling fine. I could have really used Zeke's help though," I looked at my new teammates. I smiled.

"Guys, let's go home to Fairy tail."
