Extra 15: Dragon & Dragon Maids (48)

7 years flew by for the people of [Earth Land], time that people didn't waste, at least not all but the people who were still sleeping in Mavis' spell.

"I guess it's today," Tohru muttered excitedly as she danced in happiness.

"Yes, I'm one hundred percent sure of it, I've been constantly calculating to make sure everything was correct" - answered Ultear, who had changed only a little during all this time. She was now much more beautiful and her body released a scent of seduction and maturity - "I just hope we'll be the first to arrive, so we can at least explain the current situation."

"Right" - nodded Tohru as she watched a small silhouette enter the guild along with a blue-haired woman - "Oh, Kanna, Wendy, how did it go?"

"Fine" - replied Wendy, who had grown into quite a woman during these 7 years, though Kanna hadn't changed in the slightest - "Kanna-chan did most of the work."

"Good job" - smiled Tohru as she stroked the hair of the little white-haired girl.

"Is today the day those idiots come back?" - Gajeel asked as he looked in Tohru's direction - "I wonder what [Salamander's] expression will be when he finds out that I am now much stronger than him?"

"I think he'll be more surprised because you married one of the waitresses and have a baby" - replied Carla sarcastically.

Gajeel almost choked on his drink when he heard this, while the other members of [Fairy Tail] laughed at his expression.

During these 7 years, Gajeel not only redeemed himself, but also gained the respect of the guild members even though his relationship had started off on the wrong foot, and he had even met love and started a family.

"I see everyone is excited about the return of our family" - smiled a tall man with slightly long blond hair.

"Of course, Master Laxus" - replied Gajeel sarcastically - "I guess you have to be happy to be reunited with your grandfather as well."

"I'm not going to lie, I am" - nodded Laxus with a relaxed expression.

The passage of time also helped Laxus, who had not only matured thanks to the pressure of having to protect [Fairy Tail], but also because of the guild's support.

"Maybe you should have used the time better and given him great-grandchildren, that would have been a surprise for the old man" - Gajeel continued as the others laughed at his words.

"Well, at least he has a partner, not like many of you" - said a slightly sensual female voice.

"Tch, Evergreen, you don't have to defend your leader for a joke" - replied Wakaba while shaking his head.

"I only speak the truth" - replied Evergreen, who time had also done good to her beauty - "Besides, Laki can't defend him because he went along with Bisca and Alzack, I just hope they don't talk too much because I don't want the surprise to be ruined."

"You mean their wedding?" - Romeo asked as he raised an eyebrow.

Laxus turned away to hide his embarrassed face.

He had been waiting for his grandfather's return, so he could celebrate everything, after all, he wanted his whole family to be together on his special day.

"What about you, Evergreen?" - Macao asked as she looked at the green-haired woman - "Are you excited to see Elfman?"

"If I'm honest, I'm not sure" - replied Evergreen as she shook her head - "As time goes by, all I feel is that I'm going to see an old friend, the feelings that had blossomed in my youth, I don't see them now, although I'm not sure if they will blossom again once we meet again."

"That's a pity" - said a male voice.

"I don't need your pity, Freed" - replied Evergreen as she rolled her eyes at him.

Freed decided to ignore his companion, then looked at Tohru and the others - "And shouldn't you guys be on the island?"

"Yes, but we won't be long at all, so we are preparing a few things before we leave" - Tohru answered calmly.

"Everything is ready, Tohru, let's go right away" - Ultear added while shaking her head.

"Ok, let's go" - nodded Tohru as she ran out of the guild with a happy smile.

The others quickly followed her, ignoring how everyone, present, was watching them.

"I'm not going to lie, I'm jealous of those girls' devotion" - Macao muttered as the other men nodded.

"Romeo Onii-chan!" - exclaimed a little black-haired girl - "Where did daddy and mommy go?"

"They went to look for your uncle Natsu and the others" - Romeo answered with a smile as he saw little Asuka, Alzack and Bisca's daughter.

"They're coming back today!" - Asuka shouted with excitement because she had only heard stories of Natsu and the others, but she hadn't seen them, so her curiosity was peaked.

The members of [Fairy Tail], let out a laugh at this as they prepared for the welcome party.

"If I remember correctly, today was the agreed day" - Iruru muttered as she slowly opened her red eyes. She slowly stood up as she let out a long yawn before shaking her head - "Good thing I'm nearby."

She hadn't moved since she had arrived at the place where that strange man had been sealed because she honestly didn't want to waste time.

"Hmm, only a few minutes left, I can feel how the Law Line is about to give way naturally" - Iruru muttered as she debated whether it was a good idea to break it now that she was weak, though she quickly gave up on this idea because there were only a few seconds left - "No, already waited for 7 years, a few more seconds won't make a difference."

"Again, I thank you for letting me stay with you, Fafnir-dono" - said Elma, who was taking a human appearance, in other words, without her horn, nor her tail.

"You don't have to thank me, I've made many deals with your father, and it's the least I can do" - replied Fafnir calmly as he shook his head, then looked at Ren and the others.

They were in the [Cristina], the guild's [Blue Pegasus] mobile base.

"You know we can fly on our own, and much faster, right?" - Fafnir asked as he looked bored at Ichiya.

"Yes, but not all of us can fly like you" - replied Ichiya as he struck a pose - "Not to mention that it's a favor from [Fairy Tail], one we can't refuse."

"And again we thank you for it" - replied Laki, a pretty woman with short purple hair, glasses and a bow on top of her head. She was wearing a white one-piece suit with blue trim.

"You don't have to thank us, we want to see this too" - replied Ichiya calmly, then looking back - "Some more than others".

"Kurama-sama ~!" - exclaimed a pretty woman with blonde hair, blue eyes and seductive body. She was wearing a purple one-piece dress and from the annoyed look on the [Blue Pegasus] members' faces, you could tell they weren't too happy that she was excited to meet another man.

"Tch" - Hibiki could only click her tongue in annoyance as her friends shook their heads.

"It's strange that one of you would suffer for this when you're so popular" - Bisca said as she hugged her husband.

"That's what makes it so annoying, we've never been through anything like this" - replied Ren as he watched his friend again click his tongue.

"Well, that makes sense" - nodded Laki as she adjusted her glasses, though her expression changed as an emerald gale blew past her - "I guess Tohru's already arrived?"

"The dragon from seven years ago?" - Ren asked in surprise.

"Yes, and you can see she's excited" - replied Fafnir as he looked in the direction where the dragon girl had gone, only to notice how a huge golden flash, appeared on the horizon - "It's started."

"This is bad for the eyes" - muttered Elma as she was embarrassed to notice how her bad joke had been ignored by the others who were shocked watching it all unfold - "Well, at least no one heard me"

"I did" - Fafnir replied as Elma let out a squeal of embarrassment.

* * * * *

"Ugh" - Kurama slowly opened his eyes as he grabbed his head to push away the lethargic feeling that was taking over his mind - "I feel like I've slept for a century."

"Not for that long, but it's quite possible that it was 10 years at most" - Lucoa replied with a frown.

"I hate this kind of situation" - Kurama muttered with a frown as he looked around seriously, and notice how everyone still seemed to be unconscious - "I guess we're the first to wake up thanks to the power difference"

"Yeah, and if I'm being honest, the [Law Lines] could hardly contain you" - replied Mavis as she appeared in front of the couple - "It's a pleasure to talk to you guys."

"How long has it been since we were sealed?" - Kurama asked as he went straight to the point.

"Seven years" - Mavis answered with a forced smile because she could tell the annoyance in the two people in front of her.
