Chapter 59

Return

I was sitting in my prism, having to have learned of my fate. I was feeling a little worried and a bit sick to my stomach. Then I felt it drop down until it touched down on the ground. When it did, I knew it could only mean one thing. It was finally time. I stood up straight and at attention as my prism opened where two guards were waiting for me. They made me out beginning to modify my cuffs.

Then the door opened, I saw two more guards leading someone else to the prisms. Upon seeing the prisoner, I saw that it was Midnight from the Oración Seis. As he grew closer and closer, I looked away, not wanting to make eye contact with him. Midnight soon was standing right next to me as he too was having his cuffs changed. I could feel him looking at me, but I refused to look at him, not giving him anything.

Then I heard him speak. "So Shark... or should I call you Willy," he said. "I heard it seems that the council's decided your fate."

I kept my mouth shut, not saying a single word. Nothing. I would give this guy nothing. Just ignore him.

"That's good, but... you should know something. Even if you ever get your freedom. I'd strongly recommend enjoying it while you can," Midnight continued. "The reason being is that even if you are innocent, the damage has already been done. People will never see you as a good wizard. To them, you're still a dark wizard that served my father."

I clenched my hands, trying my best not to listen to him, but Midnight's words kept reaching my ears.

"And it won't be just the people who will think that the light guilds will turn you away due to your background, and even the dark guilds that are out there will refuse to accept you. I wouldn't be surprised if they deemed you a traitor to the Balam Alliance. They'll most likely send wizards to hunt you down."

My heart skipped, and my eyes widened. I could feel my arms begin to tremble slightly.

"But if you want my own opinion, I want the pleasure of taking you down myself," Midnight said with slight sadism and anger. "As a means of revenge for turning on us. However, sadly that won't happen, due to my being in these - surroundings. But I'm not worried. We'll have our time. Till then, I'll be waiting till we meet again - Shark."

Soon enough, Midnight stepped into his prism, and I was changed into different chains and led out of the room and into the halls. As the soldiers led me down the hall, I felt very nervous and felt my heart beating like a jackhammer.

"I can't believe this..." I thought to myself. "I can't believe that this is happening to me..."

As I continued down the halls, I began to grow more and more nervous due to Midnight's previous words and about what fate was about to befall me. Soon enough, the two guards unshackled the cuffs on my wrists and my ankles. I rubbed my wrists, trying to soother the ache from being cuffed for so long. Then the two guards went to the doors and opened them. A bright light shone through them, blinding me. I was still feeling nervous, but I plucked up courage and then walked through the doors.

Through those doors was the outside world. It felt like it had been forever since I've been outside like this. I took a deep breath, taking in as much air as I can and let it out with a content sigh.

"Fresh air has never felt so good," I said.

"Well, that is expected," said a voice in front of me. "You have been through a lot. It's about time you'd get some freedom."

I looked in front of me, and I felt my smile grow wider. Waiting for me was Tu-Chi and Finn. I immediately went over to them and wrapped Finn in a bear hug. Finn was a bit surprised, but he returned the hug with earnest.

"Man Willy! I've forgotten how much you've grown," chuckled Finn. "Then again, it's been six years since I've seen you."

"I missed you so much, Finn," I said. "I'd thought I'd never see you again."

With a squawk, Jade flew off of Tu-Chi's staff and landed on top of my head.

"Hey, Jade," I chuckled. "I see you're just as mischievous as ever."

Then I looked at Tu-Chi, who had a neutral expression on her face. I turned over to her and respectfully bowed to her.

"It's great to see you again, too, Master Tu-Chi," I said. "I thank you for getting me out of there and... I apologize for all the trouble I caused you. Please forgive me."

I then felt Tu-Chi placing her hand gently on my shoulder, causing me to look up at her. She kept her neutral expression, but her eyes kind and filled with understanding.

"There is nothing to forgive, my student," she said gently. "You were not in your right mind. What has happened was Brain's doing. However, you should consider yourself lucky."

Willy was standing in the courtroom before the Magic Council once again. He had learned that the Council had witnessed everything that went on inside his mind thanks to Tu-Chi and had been debating for a couple of days now on Willy's verdict. Now the jury was in, and Willy nervously awaited whatever fate the Council had for him. Tu-Chi and Finn stood at the back of the room as a means of support. Soon the members reappeared in the chairs of the desks, all of them being projections.

"We the Magic Council have reached a verdict," said Gran Doma. "After debating for quite some time and reviewing the evidence, we the Magic Council find the defendant, Willy Falconer, not guilty."

Willy's eyes widened as he looked at Gran Doma with shock. Finn was just as surprised, and Tu-Chi kept a neutral expression, not showing any emotion.

"Therefore, the defendant will be released into the custody of the Ten Wizard Saint, Tu-Chi," continued Gran he turned to me. "Mr. Willy Falconer, you're free to go. Case dismissed."

"But, I still don't understand why they let me go," I said. "I mean, you'd think with a council like that, they would have locked me up even though I was innocent."

"I suppose even the new Magic Council has its good moments," said Finn. "Even though they're doing everything in their power to uphold their so-called order."

"Well, let's be glad that they didn't use Willy as an example," said Tu-Chi. "In the meantime, what do you say we leave this place?"

"I agree," said Finn.

We were all just about to leave when we heard a voice coming from behind us.

"Excuse me, please. Wait a moment."

The three of us turned, and we saw one of the council members walking up to us, which was an older man with a long beard. I didn't know him at the time, but I recognized him as one of the members of the council that was sitting in the courtroom.

"Thank goodness I was able to catch you three before you left," said the man as he came up. "First and foremost, I wanted to say what a relief it is that you were proven innocent, Willy. I had to admit, even I was worried about the outcome of this trial, and I would personally like to apologize for all the trouble you've gone through. Please forgive me."

"No. It's alright," I said, shaking my head. "There's no reason to apologize."

"Well, this is a surprise. An apology from Org," said Tu-Chi. "That's something rare you don't normally hear."

"Don't get used to it," said Org. "Anyway, there's another reason why I'm here. I have something to give to Willy." He then dug into his coat and pulled out a small envelope and gave it to me.

I raised a brow as I inspected the envelope. "What is this?" I wondered.

"Something that I meant to give you for the past six years," said Org. "I wanted to give it to you the very first chance that I could get a chance to speak with you."

I looked at Org feeling a bit puzzled; then I looked at the envelope. I felt a little curious as to what was in it, so I decided to open it and see what was inside. I opened it, and then my eyes stared at the object that was inside of it. I could feel my heart throbbing in my chest, and my hands beginning to tremble along with my lip.

I continued to stare at the object in the envelope. I then pulled the object out, and stared intently at it with my still trembling hands. My vision became blurry as my eyes started to fill up with tears, and I fell to the ground on my knees, for I knew very well what this was.

It was a picture of me as a child smiling happily with my Mama and my Papa.

"Where... where did you get this?" I choked out.

"I found it in the ruins of a house, which I would assume was yours over in Nomekop," said Org quietly. "I've been keeping it with me all these years with the hopes of returning it to you. And there's something else, - I was there when your mother died..."

I looked up at the man in disbelief. "You... you saw my Mama?" I asked, my voice cracking.

"Yes. It's true. Your mother was severely wounded, and we tried our best to save her, but it was already too late," continued Org. "Your mother knew this as well, but she only cared about you even though she was on the brink of death. She wanted me to pass along her last words when I found you."

He paused impressively.

"Your mother's said... that she will always and forever love you."

At that moment, I could no longer hold the tears in my eyes. They trickled down my cheeks as I openly began to sob. It didn't matter if Finn and Tu-Chi or even Org were in front of me, I just wanted to cry. A storm of emotions went through my body, but mostly of sadness, happiness, and disbelief. As I sat there crying, I held the picture close to my chest.

"Thank you..." I sobbed. "Thank you... thank you..."

Those two words were all I could say as I continued to let out the tears that I've held in for so long.

After a while, I managed to calm down and run out of energy to cry.

"Have you calmed down now, Willy?" asked Finn.

"Yeah," I sniffed, wiping my eyes with my hand. "Sorry about that... I was just overwhelmed is all. Thank you, Master Org."

"You are quite welcome," said Org. "I'm just glad that I was able to fulfill my promise to your mother. I can only say that I'm sorry for your loss, and I only wish I could have done more."

He then turned around and walked away back towards the branch, leaving me alone with Finn and Tu-Chi. I then let out a sigh and turned to Finn and Tu-Chi.

"Shall we go then?" asked Finn.

I only replied with a small nod. Then Finn and Tu-Chi spread their water wings and took off into the air with a mighty flap. I took one last look at the branch, and then I spread my wings and followed after them.

The three of us flew high above in the air having to have traveled many miles. As we flew, I had a lot of things on my mind. I tried my best not to think, but that only made me think about them more.

"Hey, Willy! You doing OK back there?"

Finn's voice then snapped me out of my thoughts, causing me to look up. I could see that Finn was concerned, but I didn't want him to worry, so I decided to try and focus on something else.

"I'm alright," I called back. "I'm just trying to get used to flying. It's been a while since I've been able to spread my wings. Anyway, where are we going?"

"There's a town not too far away from here," said Finn. "It's called Hargeon. We're going there to rest up a bit. Plus, Master's meeting up with someone."

"Meet up with someone? Who is it?" I wondered.

"I'm not sure," said Finn. "She wouldn't give me the specifics of who it was. All she could tell me is that the person's been wanting to see you for some time as well."

I felt a bit puzzled as to who was the person that wanted to meet Tu-Chi as well as me. Was it an enemy of sorts, or was someone that I knew? Soon our destination came in sight - the town of Hargeon.

Its appearance looked pretty beautiful with its old building and its large marina. As the three of us flew above the buildings, I noticed that the people below were busily walking either working or going about their daily lives. Some of them happened to look up at us and were either surprised or amazed by what they saw. We flew past various buildings until finally Tu-Chi and Finn began to descend until they touched down to the ground. I then followed suit and landed on the ground just behind them.

"We're here," said Tu-Chi. "This is the place."

I looked up, and I was a little surprised as well as confused. The building was about two stories tall, had large glass windows, and had a grey chimney on top with a large sign with a strange white hat that said "8 Island". I also felt a smell waft into my nose, which made my stomach growl slightly. From the looks of things, it was a restaurant.

"Um... excuse me, but... what are we doing at a restaurant?" I wondered.

"Isn't it obvious? To eat," said Tu-Chi. "You have been locked up with them for quite some time now, so I would assume that you would like something to eat and drink, correct? And to add to that, the chef works here makes excellent food."

"Well... that does sound perfect right about now," I said. "It has been a while since I've eaten or drank anything."

"Why don't we go in then?" smiled Finn. "Let's all get something to eat."

Then we walked inside the restaurant. As we came in, we all took a seat at one of the booths.

"Order anything you'd like Willy," said Finn. "It's on us."

"Alright then," I said as I picked up the menu and scanned over what they had. I knew that I was so hungry that I could eat anything, but there was something that I've wanted to eat for a long time now. However, I couldn't see it on the menu. Just then, a waiter came up to our table.

"Welcome," said the waiter. "I'd be so happy to take your order. What will it be?"

"I'll take just take a water," said Tu-Chi.

"I'll take the Beast Man Curry," said Finn. "And a Holy Soda."

"Alright then," said the waiter as he took down our orders. Then he looked at me. "And you, sir?"

I took one more scan of the menu and still couldn't see what I wanted. I was just about to ask the waiter if they had any fish here, but then Finn spoke.

"He'll have the special of the day along with some water," said Finn. "He's a big fan of seafood."

"Very well," said the waiter. "Great choices. May I interest you in some dessert as well?"

"Yes. I'll take a Ruby Parfait," said Tu-Chi. "I do so love the way it tastes."

"Excellent choices," said the waiter. "I'll bring your orders straight away."

And with that, the waiter left. I looked at Finn a little puzzled as to why he ordered for me, but he smiled.

"Don't worry. You'll love the special," Finn said. "I guarantee it. In the meantime, why don't you change out of those clothes?"

"But... I don't have any to change into," I said.

Then Tu-Chi tapped her staff, making a magic circle appear, and then in a burst of light, a change of clothes appeared and landed right on my lap.

"You do now," she said brightly. "I've had a feeling that you'd be needing some new clothes, so Finn and I took the liberty of getting you some new clothes."

I felt surprised, but at the same time, feeling grateful. It was practically wearing a pair of raggedy shorts and a t-shirt. Not to mention, I was still barefooted. A new change of clothes would do me good right now.

"Thank you very much, Master. Thank you, Finn," I said. "I'll change right away."

I soon came back dressed in my new clothes. I was wearing a gray-blue tank top with a sleeveless gray hoodie, a pair of black shorts with a belt with a silver buckle trimmed aqua, and a pair of black boots that go up close to my knees, and of gloves with guards on both of his arms colored black and blue.

"Well, well. Now you look a lot better," said Tu-Chi.

"Thanks, Master," I replied, looking at my new clothes for a second and then sitting down. "I feel a lot better too."

"Glad you liked them," said Finn. "So, what do you say we catch up a bit? After all, it's been six years since we've seen you."

"Yeah. I know," I said. "It's been so long since I've seen you guys. What have you two been up to?"

"Well... where do I begin?" hummed Finn to himself. "For starters, ever since you and the others have left, things were... still a bit complicated. The other townsfolk are still uneasy after what happened with the demon. Considering that we were there when we found you and Mira, they began not to trust us and thought that we were harboring the demon."

"And it wasn't just the master," added Finn. "They began to mistrust Sieri and me as well. After a while, the three of us decided to leave Osia."

"You and Master moved?" I wondered. "How long ago?"

"I'd say it's been a year since we decided to leave," said Tu-Chi. "I didn't want to hang around with people like that. We moved around until Finn and Sieri were able to find a nice place in Oak Town. I've taken a liking to Oak Town's forests and its river."

"We? Does that mean that Sieri went with you?" I asked.

"Indeed," said Finn. "She insisted that she'd go with us whether we liked it or not. Since then, Sieri and I have been living there while Master has made her home in the forest."

"Sounds like you guys have been doing okay," I said. "By the way, how's Sieri doing?"

"She's doing fine," smiled Finn. "Still the same old woman that fantasizing girl who likes to think about love and such."

I couldn't help but chuckle. It was nice to know that Sieri hadn't changed over the past six years. Then I suddenly remembered. There were three other people that I wanted to know about, but before I could ask, I smelled something that immediately made me drool. Sure enough, the waiter had returned with our orders and placed them on the table. My eyes then widened, and my mouth began to water. In front of me was a platter of seafood. There were two fish cooked to perfection some fried shrimp on the side. Finn also had his Beast Man Curry, and Tu-Chi had her Ruby Parfait.

"Please enjoy," said the waiter as he left.

The moment the waiter left, I immediately pounced on my food like a wolf with a carcass and began devouring my food.

"Whoa! Take it easy, Willy!" Finn said, chuckling as he ate his food. "Your food's not going anywhere."

I didn't care, nor did I listen. I just continued to wolf down my food savoring every bite. I also gulped down a cup of water, finally easing the dryness of my throat. I'm pretty sure that I had a couple of people staring at me, but that didn't matter to me. All that mattered to me was filling my stomach.

After a while, we finished our food, and I let out a satisfied sigh as we all left the restaurant. "Man... that was delicious. Best food I've ever had for a long time."

"I agree," said Finn. "When it comes to food, 8-Island is the best restaurant in town."

"I must admit, I have to agree as well," said Tu-Chi, who was quietly eating her parfait. "I do so love the Ruby Parfaits."

"So Master, I'm curious about something," I said. "It's about this person who you're planning to meet up with, - who is it exactly?"

Tu-Chi, who had just finished her parfait, placed her spoon on the counter. "It's someone who's been wanting to see you for quite some time now," she said. "Someone who's been searching for you tirelessly ever since he heard of your disappearance. I've arranged for a meeting when I knew for sure that you were cleared, and the meeting place is going to be at Kardia Cathedral."

He then pointed to a large building in the distance. It was large, had four keeps, and had a bell tower in the middle. It certainly was a beautiful looking place. We then set off heading towards Kardia Cathedral. As we walked along, I looked around at all the people who were busily going about their daily routines. It made me feel somewhat nostalgic about being here in Magnolia once again. Soon enough, we arrived at our destination.

"Man... It's great to see this again," I said. "I remember coming here back when I was with Mira, Elfman, and Lisanna. It seemed like such a long ago. right, guys?"

As I turned to Tu-Chi and Finn, I noticed that the two were being unusually quiet for some reason. Not to mention their faces looked somewhat pained, making me raise a brow in confusion.

"Finn? Master Tu-Chi? Is - something wrong?" I wondered.

Finn and Tu-Chi looked at each other, and then Tu-Chi nodded as if he was signaling Finn for something. Finn then looked at me.

"Willy. There's something that you need to know," he said slowly. "It's... not very easy to say..."

"What is it?" I asked tentatively.

Finn struggled to try and say something, but the words wouldn't come out. Then Tu-Chi stepped forward and placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Let me handle this, Finn," Tu-Chi said. "He has a right to know about what has happened." She then looked at me, wearing a very grave expression. "Willy... something very tragic happened. Something that happened two years ago while you were controlled and I think that it'd be best for you to see for yourself. Come."

Tu-Chi then walked ahead, heading towards the side of the cathedral, and I followed along with Finn. As we made our way to the right, I began to have a terrible feeling in my gut. It's not every day that Tu-Chi wore a painful expression like that neither Finn.

We soon came to the side, and what I saw made the blood in my veins grow cold. In front of us was a small cemetery. Everywhere I looked, I could see the various graves of those who passed on. Tu-Chi then stopped at a grave in particular and turned towards me. I then saw the words on the grave.

"Lisanna. Beloved sister and a friend to animal souls. X768 - X782."

The moment I read those words, I felt the entire world freeze all around me. My eyes were wide with horror and shock as I stared at the gravestone. Memories of Lisanna began floating into my mind. My heart began to beat like a jackhammer, and I felt like I couldn't breathe. It couldn't be true. It just can't be true.

"No. No, it can't be..." I gasped, stepping back. "It's... it's a trick. Please tell me it's a trick..."

Tu-Chi sadly shook her head. "I wish I could say that it was, but this is no trick," she said solemnly. "I'm afraid... that Lisanna has passed away. About two years ago."

My heart began to throb rapidly, and I felt my eyes fill up with tears until they streamed down my face. One of my very best friends was dead, and I felt crushed for finding out this truth. I fell to my knees, unable to take my eyes off of the gravestone.

"This... this can't be... Lisanna's gone?" I said. "How... how did this happen?"

"She died while she was on a Job with Elfman and Mira," said a familiar voice. "Those two were especially crushed when they saw her die."

We turned around and saw a familiar little old man who was wearing a white tunic with white fur to match. Upon seeing him, I recognized him immediately.

"So you're finally here, Makarov," said Tu-Chi. "You certainly took your time getting here."

"Sorry, I'm late, Tu-Chi," replied the old man. "I had some matters to take off before I could meet you here." He turned towards Finn. "And how have you been doing, Finn? Hanging in there, alright?"

"I'm doing just fine, Master Makarov," replied Finn. "Thank you for asking."

Makarov smiled, then he looked at me. The two of us stared at each other in silence for a few seconds, then Makarov walked up to me, a heartfelt smile worked its way on his lips.

"Willy... it is you," he murmured. "I'm so glad you're safe and sound."

"Master Makarov..." I said. "What are you doing here?"

"I thought that Tu-Chi told you already," Makarov smiled. "I came here to see if one of my dear children is alright after the past six years. Plus, I felt that you had a right to know about this."

I bit my lip and squeezed my hand, letting the tears flow from my eyes. "I'm so sorry," I choked out. "It's my fault... I should have been there. If I hadn't been under the control of the Seis, Lisanna would still be..."

"Now, now. Hold on a minute," interrupted Makarov. "You have nothing to apologize for."

"But... I've even caused so much trouble for you and your guild," I said sadly. "I even let myself get controlled by Silver Beard and that Brain guy. And who knows how many more people I've hurt while I was possessed..."

"Willy, please calm yourself. It's alright. There's no need to burden yourself with the guilt about what happened. The past is the past. You should start focusing on the present and your future. Besides, Lisanna's death was not your fault," said Makarov. "These things happen, so there's no reason to blame yourself." Speaking of the future, what do you intend to do now? What's your next move?"

"My next move? I'm not sure," I replied. "To be honest, I never really thought about what I'm planning to do at this point. Why do you ask?"

"I ask is because I want to offer you a chance," said Makarov. "A chance to use your magic for a purpose. It's something that I've wanted you to do ever since you came with the Strauss siblings." He paused impressively. "I want you to join Fairy Tail."

I immediately looked at Makarov, my eyes wide. "What? You want me to join the guild?" Then Midnight's words floated in my head, making me wonder if this was the right move. "But Master Makarov... I don't know if that's a good idea. You do realize that brain-washed or not; I'm still a former dark mage and a former member of the Oración Seis."

"That may be so, but I still would like you to join," said Makarov. "Natsu and the others would be happy to see that you're safe. Especially Mira and Elfman."

I immediately thought about the fire dragon slayer along with the others that I encountered back with Nirvana's destruction. I even thought about the two that I wanted to see the most. Mira and Elfman. Lisanna was gone, but at least they were still alive. But I wasn't sure if I wanted to see them or not. I clenched my hands at their sides, both of which were trembling.

"But... I don't deserve it," I said bitterly. "After everything I did, after everything I've done, I'm not sure if I have the guts to show my face around there again. Plus, if word got around that you let it a former dark wizard, I don't know how people are gonna react. I don't want to cause any more trouble."

Makarov stared at me. Then he spoke again.

"Willy... let tell you something that once I told someone else," he said. "There are some people in this world who would think that isolation is the best punishment for what they did wrong. However, there isn't a single human alive that can endure it. Not only that, but I refuse to let a young man like you fall into darkness when I know I could have done something to prevent it."

I felt my heartthrob, and I bit my lip, trying to fight back the emotions.

"I know that you've been through some dark times, and you may feel you deserve to disappear in it," he continued. "But you deserve a lot more. You deserve a path towards a bright future, and I'm sure that Tu-Chi would tell you the same thing."

I looked back towards Tu-Chi, and Finn and Tu-Chi answered with a simple nod in agreement. I then looked back at Makarov, who had now had his hand held out to me, looking deep into my eyes.

"Now, Willy, I ask you," said Makarov. "Which path will you walk upon? The path to your future? Or will you remain where you stand and stay in your tracks continuing to punish yourself?"

I stared at Makarov and then looked back at his hand. Then I looked at Finn and Tu-Chi, and this time, Finn responded with a smile and a simple nod as if he was telling me to go for it.

Then after thinking about it for a minute or so, I made my decision.

NO POV

At the Fairy Tail guild hall, everyone was going about their usual way. Whether it was brawling, drinking, or even looking or coming back from a job. Natsu and the others were having a drink with some of the other guild members, and Mira was working hard serving drinks.

"Hey, Mira! Another drink, please!" called out a member.

"Be right with you!" smiled Mira.

"Man, Mira's working as hard as ever," said Gray.

"No kidding," said Lucy. "Still makes me wonder how she does it."

"It's not that hard once you get the gist of it," said Erza. "I've personally taken a fancy to it myself back when we worked for Yajima."

"I wondering if Mira's tried any of the food she makes here," said Natsu. "I would have taken the job myself if it meant I could eat all that food."

"How many times have I have to tell you that you're not supposed to eat the food?!" snapped Lucy. "You'd make a terrible waiter!"

Just then, the doors to the main hall opened, and Makarov walked in.

"Hey! Gramps is back," said Natsu.

"Welcome back, Master," said Erza. "Did you finish your business?"

"Yes. I have," said Makarov. "In fact..." He then spoke loudly, so that everyone in the guildhall could hear him. "Can I have everyone's attention? I have an announcement to make."

Everyone present immediately stopped and paid attention to him.

"Now listen up, I bring you tidings of good news," spoke Makarov. "Wendy and Carla are new members of the guild as you recall, but now we have another new member joining our guild," Makarov continued. "This person has been through hell and was on the brink of losing himself entirely, but was able to overcome the darkness of his past and has decided to walk the path towards a brighter future. This person is also someone you all might recognize, so it may come as a shock to you, but I expect you, kids, to give our newest member a big Fairy Tail welcome."

Everyone in the guild was surprised and even a little excited, wondering who the newest member was.

"I wonder who it could be?" wondered Lucy. "I don't think anyone comes to mind."

"I haven't the slightest clue either," said Erza. "Your guess is about as good as mine."

"Alright then," said Makarov. "It's time for you kids to meet our newest member. Come on in!"

Then a single person walked through the front doors and into the guildhall. Upon seeing the person, everyone was shocked. Wakaba and Macao, who were drinking from their mugs, dropped them with a clatter. Natsu and his group's eyes were wide and their mouths hung open. When Elfman saw who it was, his eyes went wide as saucers and at the same time began filling with tears as he also began to tremble. Then Mira walked in with carrying another order with a tray.

"Hey, you guys," she said. "What's everyone looking..."

Mira's voice then trailed off when she saw the reason why everyone was so shocked and frozen. Her bright blue eyes widened as she dropped her tray in making all of the glasses of drink fall to the floor with a crash, as they filled with tears streaming down her face as she clasped her hands over her mouth.

"No... no way... " she choked. "Is... is this a dream...?"

"It... can't be..." murmured Elfman. "It... it's not possible..."

"Allow me to introduce, the newest member of the guild," continued Makarov. "Willy Falconer!"

Willy walks through the doors of Fairy Tail, having to be the newest member!
