Jellal, Sho, and Simon sailed on their boat to the mainland of Ishgar peninsula. After making their way to Ishgar from there traveling to Fiore would be their goal. After all the kingdom of Fiore is where the Fairy Tail Guild is located. Though Jellal and his friends knew their goal, had something to prove they knew and referred to the guild by one of the members. Actually getting there was kind of the problem that the three of them were learning they had overlooking this entire time.

Sailing to the mainland of Ishgar was not costing them anything since they were using a boat that they got from the island they were coming from. Though they did not have any money for traveling over land nor enough to have anywhere to stay as they did have to travel for some time on foot before getting to their final goal.

However while Simon was busy manning the controls for the boat ensuring they were heading in the right direction. Sho was going to see Jellal to get some more details on what they were going to other then what they had already discussed previously.

Sho found him in the area where Erza was being kept safe and secure so that she was not being rocked back and forth by the motion of the boat or anything else for that matter.

"Did we really have to have her set up like this though?" Sho asked looking over Erza.

"What choice did we have as this boat does not really have any beds or anything. We were lucky the boat has what it does considering where it came from after all" Jellal said looking from where paperwork he was examining.

Jellal had collected various paperwork and notes from Kyoama. It was things that he had felt would be helpfully in learn some of the details about what had been done to Erza in order to turn her into a zombie. Also another reason was that he was looking through to see if he could understand anything about them or discover something that could possibly led to Erza becoming fully self aware once again.

"So what exactly did you want to see me about then, Sho" he asked.

"Going over what the three of us are going to do once we get to the mainland of Ishgar in some more detail" Sho said.

"The current plan is that we have to probably gain money with our magic doing various odd jobs in the first decent city we get to first" Jellal informed him.

"I been wondering about that as why are we not just heading start to Fairy Tail first. What is the point of us stopping in a city for awhile to earn money" he asked.

His blue hair friend then went over to Erza and brushed aside the hair that was covering her missing eye. Explaining to Sho what he was doing and why he had these various papers from the island.

"I think it would be better if we arrive at Fairy Tail with Erza fully aware already rather then hoping they can do that as well. I have an idea that Erza was under their control because the lacrima that they used in her eye. That one seemed to be something that used to not only control her but also keep her from becoming self aware. Thus what if we just give her a normal lacrima that just used as power source her for" Jellal said.

Sometime later….

Having sold everything they could and even the boat they sailed on as well. The trio managed to gain enough money to afford a decent room an inn within the city they decided to stay to gain money for Erza's new lacrima eye. Of course Erza was left secured in their room where they had to pay extra to prevent room cleaning from going into their room. Claiming that Erza was not feeling good thus she need a lot of rest, thus they would maintain the room themselves. Though one of the many real reason was that they did not want anyone going into the room and discovering that Erza was not alive.

Her body was cold and her heart was not beating at all. Because the magic that had reanimated her body they did not have to worry about her dead body going through the normal process that should have been happening already. It something Jellal, Simon, and Sho were grateful for that even without a power source to fully animate her, Erza's body remained in perfect condition.

Though it was kind of against what they were trying to do for her at the moment. The three of them took turns controlling Erza to make so that she was seen moving around enough that none of the staff would begin to start questioning why Erza never moves from that bed. It done in manner that also dispel question about why she would need help getting around.

As for what they did about giving the illusion that Erza was eating and drinking. The three of them were just eating enough for four people instead of just the three of them. Since they had known each other well enough they could get away with order things that seem like Erza herself was ordering them. Not that just one of them eating enough for two.
