Chapter 3: What Really Happened

Max and Aria boarded the train to Sakura town, lost in deep thought.

Aria was thinking about how the boatman asked if she had a sibling in Fairy Tail, and how Lyon had asked if she new His friend who had the last name of Fullbuster. She had said no to both of these; but now she wasn't so sure.

" Hey Max,"

" Yeah"

" Do you think master would have told me if my brother was alive?"

" I honestly don't Know. Master has many secrets… but if he knew, he should have told you."

" Im going to ask him when we get back."

When they returned to the Guild, they realized that they would have very little time to ask the master anything. He had a heart attack and was fading fast. The duo ran towards him, desperate to ask him the crucial question.

"Master! I need to ask you a question. Please don't die yet."

" Hurry Aria, he is fading fast hurry."

" Master… is my brother alive, and is he in Fairy Tail?"

The master looked at me with sad eyes and slowly nodded yes.

" His...is… Gray" With that he closed his eyes and never opened them again.

Aria looked at me stunned. After all this time, she could finally see her brother… and she wouldn't have to die to do so. Even in this sad time, she couldn't help but smile

" Max… he is alive. My brother is alive. Oh My God. he must think im dead. I have to find him."

" Don't worry Aria, we will. Right after we pay our respects to Master."

Two days later, the Guild gathered in the cementary. The ceremony was beautiful. White and purple flowers decorated the casket. They watched as they slowly lowered the old man into the earth.

" We leave tomorrow," Aria told Max.

" We will find your brother Aria… I promise."

Across the country; A young man looked up at the sky.

" Something wrong Gray?" His red-headed companion asked.

" Nothing… I just have a feeling that everything is going to change."
