Hello. Sorry for the late update but I am having a hard time in life. I know that's no excuse but that is the best excuse I have. This is the last chapter for the fic, next will be the last. I want to start a bleach/fairy tail crossover. Next chapter will most probably be up tomorrow. Please enjoy the chapter. There might be a sequel, not sure yet.

"I need to tell you something" he said leaning closer.
"Erza?" Natsu asked seeing the red knight lean closer to her. The closeness unnerved her. She could not imagine someone being so close to her except one person, the one who was angry at her currently. Erza's lips were merely an inch away from her before she snapped in action and broke the scarlet knights hold on her arm.
"Natsu" he cried as she jumped a few steps back from him.
"I'm sorry Erza. I can't" she said looking at the guy in front of her with regret filled eyes.
"Can't huh? Am I too late? Or is it that I never stood a chance?" he asked and seeing her eyes divert gave him all the answers he needed. "In that case I can't force my feelings on you. I'm sorry" he said, disappointment washing all over him.
"No, don't be. It is not your fault. If anything it is mine for not liking you" she said and saw the knight chuckle.
"You can't change feelings. If you don't love me it's alright. Oh it will heart like a bitch for some time but it will be alright after sometime. Maybe it's time I give someone else a chance" he said as he left. The heartbreak and loneliness pouring off of him. Natsu looked at him as he left feeling bad.
"Don't feel bad. It's not your fault" she was startled by the voice behind her. Looking behind she spotted the blond dragon slayer of Sabertooth.
"But I do." She said looking a little lost herself.
"Let's go back. We have a fight to win" the night was eerly silent and somehow it unnerved Natsu, it made her worried about after the games.
The once beautiful place was now in rubbles but the spirits of everyone around was high. And why won't they be? After all they had just managed to defeat the dragons and save the future. Only one person dare interrupt the atmosphere. He walked into the centre where the mages were. He cleared his throat to attract the attention of everyone.
"Master Kaname?" Sabertooth members asked looking a little concern to see their master out in the open, which was the first ever.
"You were all amazing, and I want to tell you that I am so proud of you even if you did not win these games, but I am disbanding the guild for I can no longer be your master" every Sabertooth member looked at him while rest of them were looking at the group in shock, not understanding anything.
"But why?" Sting asked upset at the master.
"Because he is no more than a projection that can only be seen by members of Sabertooth. He was one of the previous masters of the guild whom was found by Minerva as a child. No one except our guild mates can see him. I was confused at first as I could not see him, but I could when I got this mark of the guild" she explained, pained eyes looking at the blond.
"It's time for me to move on. I'm sorry." He said looking at the rest of guild guiltily. The blond was beginning to shake a little.
"Fine, so you no longer can be our guild master, don't be. But I will not allow Sabertooth to be disbanded. I will become the next master, but the guild will live on" the voice was firm and you could see it touch many people's hearts. The smile that the black haired youth gave blinded him. His body for a second was filled with light before it faded, taking a friend, and family, loved one from the world. Words like 'was that Kaname?' and 'he was hot' floated around.
"His emotions made it possible for us to see him. This was his last gift to you" Makarov looked over the guild that seemed to be in mourning.
"Natsu?" Erza asked, but the pink haired girl just shook her head.
"I'll stay in Sabertooth and help them manage. I can tell the things will be different" she said looking at the group fondly.
"Will you ever be back?" Laxus asked, looking at her with a little concern.
"Who knows? A mistake brought me here, who says fate will not bring be back. But for now our paths diverge" with that she moved to join her guild mates, leaving the old one behind.
Done. I know crappy ending, but I wanted to get this off of my chest. I know many of you wanted the kiss but most of you did not so I did not put any.
Hope you enjoyed this story, and please check out my crossover I will be posting. A bleach/Fairy tail one.
