Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail
AN: Thanks for the review. This plot might take longer than the usual stories and one shot that I worked on previously. So I hope that I can persevere until the end. Now here comes chapter 2
Gray's POV
That flame brain is late!
It's about time for our scheduled training but he is nowhere to be seen. This is not the time to slack off! We have to train so much more to prepare for the war and protect the First!
"Gray-sama, do you see Lucy-san?"
"Juvia? Well I heard Erza mentioned about Lucy going back to her place for a little rest. Why?"
"But Gray-sama, it's been quite some time since! She should be back soon!"
I smile and pat her head, comforting her. She used to shout at Lucy about being her love rival or something all the time. Since we reunited and reform Fairy Tail, her relationship with Lucy increase so much until I admit that I got jealous of them.
As if in cue, the guild door opens and reveals Lucy and Happy. Following them is a mysterious girl. She looks around as if to check out the place. Then Lucy starts to talk with her about some stuff. Maybe she is a client that wants to request some help from us.
"Lucy-san, are you alright?" Juvia heads straight to her and smiles when she hugs her back to show that she's alright. Then Juvia turns to look at the newcomer and asks, "And you are?"
"Aye! She is Leaaafyyy! That perverted tree man's daughter!"
"Happy! You shouldn't say that in front of her! What if she is offended?!"
Most of the guild members stops what they are doing, glance at the group at the entrance. Erza approaches and held out a hand to shake, "I'm Erza Scarlet. Can I know what you need?"
The girl called Leafy by Happy shakes Erza's hand and gives her a smile. I can sense her smile is a bitter one. Maybe something happened to that old Warrod? Still, it's strange to see that old man to have such a young daughter. She looks more like his granddaughter!
"Can I see the master? I have something important to discuss."
"Master! Someone is looking for you!" Mira calls him and goes back to her work at the bar. Then the master comes out from his office at the back. He looks at her from top to bottom and with a perverted blush on his face, he asks, "Are you here to join this guild? You have a nice body!"
"Master! You should stop getting drunk at broad daylight!"
"Being honest is a man!"
"You are the master?" The girl tilts her head, observing him carefully. Did I see it correctly? The master just swallows as if in fear when she is leaning closer to look at his features.
"You look familiar though."
"It is because he is the son of Yury Dreyar, Makarov Dreyar." The first pops out from nowhere and smiles at the newcomer, as though she knows her.
"Master?! Where have you been?! We were looking for you when you suddenly disappeared after Rita passed away once she gave birth to baby Makarov!"
Did I hear it right? The rest of us goes silent. If she said that, meaning she should be as old as the first. In fact, she will be a Fairy Tail member of the first generation.
"I'm sorry. I got cursed and Rita was caught in my black magic. I'm so sorry- but Leafy, you shouldn't be alive until this long. How?" Leafy fidgeting with her fingers, take a deep breath and explains.
"I went for a mission and got thrown into another dimension. I spent 9 months figuring out how to get out from there. The whole place is pitch black. No matter how I try to explore, it will always be pitch black. I can't even see or sense any living soul!" a tear threatens to fall from her eye. Then as if to encourage her to carry on, the first nods.
"Finally, after 9 months of lonely days without being able to see or listen to anything, I finally sense something, something interesting."
"I chase after that very existence. I know that it might be threatening my very life but it should be much better than living my whole life in loneliness."
"Just then, a room appears around me, and a girl that looks exactly like me walks towards me. She is the total replica of myself! Well, except her hair is in white in color."
"We looked at each other, as if she also saw a living being for the first time in that world. Then she started to open her mouth and said this very sentence to me."
"A living being like you shouldn't be here."
"Before I can ask anymore question, I lost my consciousness. Once I woke up, she was gone. Instead, I am in an unfamiliar town."
"Happy that I came back to the living world, I ask around for directions to the guild. And that's how I came to Magnolia. One thing is changed. The year now is 96 years later after I left."
"WHAT?!"
"96 years?"
"Even the spirit world's time is not that absurd!"
I guess other questions can come later. The first then opens her arms and says with a heartwarming tone, "Leafy, welcome home."
She cries, tries to hug the first but since she is a ghost, she cannot really hug her.
"I'm home."
Leafy's POV
It's going to be a lot to take in. Of course, it's been freaking 96 years later after I escaped from that dark world. The current master, Makarov Dreyar becomes a short old man. The guild hall is now a total crowded place full of lively mages. The barmaid, Mirajane Strauss always put on her bright smile while serving beers to the fellow members. The girl Lucy Heartfilia that I met on the streets fills me in about what had happened during all these years. Then a topless man approaches.
"Leafy is it? Was your father perverted when he was young?"
What's wrong with this guy? He is much more perverted, seeing that he is totally topless.
"Gray, your clothes..."
"Shit! When did I strip?"
"Leafy, ignore him. He has a serious stripping habit."
"I hope it's not contagious." I shudder at the thought where one day, everyone might get infected and strips whenever possible. There goes the health of my eyes.
"Anyway, where's your guild mark?" A blue haired shorty asks with a glint in her eyes. Even Lucy nods and look at me, wanting me to show them.
"Erm, it's a bit embarrassing though."
I stand up, lifting up my dress. The male members starts to drool with hearts in their eyes. Lucy and the girl who asked starts to tremble with blushes on their faces. "Oh stop stop stop! Don't strip just like that!"
To the girl's relief but the guy's disappointment, I stop lifting up once the hem of my dress reaches the bottom of my ass cheek. Then I point to my guild mark which is situated right below it, showing them.
"Here. A black Fairy Tail mark."
"How come your mark is at that kind of place?"
"When I was small, I used to run around the place bare naked."
"EHHHH?!" Obviously, they're having a wild imagination in their heads.
"Then when I receive my guild mark, my father just stamp it here without questions while I was still struggling not to wear anything."
While they are asking me more questions about my father, a loud voice can be heard way from the entrance.
"Stripper! Where were you?! I've been waiting for an hour!"
"You are the one saying we meet at the guild before going to our training spot, flame brain!"
"What?! That was yesterday, you ice freak!"
"Stop!" Lucy stops the both of them before they starts laying punches on each other. Then she turns to the new comer who was called flame brain by Gray and pokes his chest, "I heard very clearly that you both will be meeting at the guild before going for your training! Did you seriously just forget about that?"
"What? Lucy, why are you helping that Gray?!"
"I'm not helping, I'm just explaining!"
"Stop it you two! You both just have to fight like an old couple whenever you both meet don't you?"
"We did not!" they both shout back at Gray in unison.
"Natsu, we have new company." Lucy points at me and I just wave back nervously. He eyes me and wave back at me with a huge grin, "Yo! I'm Natsu Dragneel! And you are?"
"Leafy Sequen."
"Aye! She is that perverted tree man's daughter!"
"Stop Happy!"
"Huh, really? Woah then when you got old, you will turn like a tree?"
"Natsu, don't be stupid!"
I laugh nervously at their antics. I play with my hair for a bit and mutters something that I don't easily reveal.
"Well, he and I are not even blood related."
They all turn and face me, staring straight at me. Then the flying blue cat which I thought it's strange to have a cat with blue fur and wings asks me, "If you are not blood related, then why do you call him your father?"
"Warrod adopts her when we found her in the woods one day."
Master Mavis explains while walking straight to us. Then she continues, "We were exploring since the forest nearby our guild have lots of dying trees. Warrod is trying to grow new plants as much as possible. Then we saw a huge tree with just the trunk."
"Then we peered inside it and saw Leafy, crouching inside and looks around 3 years old. We tried to get her to talk but she doesn't remember what happened before she met us. So Warrod kind of adopted her."
They all making a 'o' shaped mouth and Lucy smiles at me, "Well, even if Sir Warrod is not around the guild, you still got us!"
"Yeah, we are nakama and a big family."
"Aye!"
I'm so grateful to them. Then I give them a grin and shouts, "No one is better than Fairy Tail!"
"Yes!"
"Yosh! Fairy Tail is the best!"
Even though I don't get to return back to my timeline, I'm still glad that I met this new generation of Fairy Tail wizards!
AN: That's about it for chapter 2! I'm glad that I can still write without any writer's block for the time being. A mental note to myself, hope to update soon!
