Part three-chapter eleven: rescue

Although most of the people we had reunited with still had plans they needed to fufill, we all had agreed to meet back up in Magnolia. We ended taking a train, since we had all agreed it would be faster, luckily, we had been able to get both Wendy and Natsu completely knocked out before we even got on the train.

As much as I was excited to see everyone, I couldn't help but feel anxious about it, and poor Lucy felt exactly the same.

"Its just... what if everyone did what Master said and found their own path, and there I go asking them to join us after they haven't heard from me in so long..."

I sighed and placed my hand on her shoulder, signaling to her it would be okay, that is...until someone else decided to do the same.

"From what I remember it's only been a year"

"Cana?!"

The brunette smiled, greeting us all individually before turning her attention to Lucy. I separated myself from the two and stood beside Natsu and Wendy as Cana continued on.

"It was such a huge shock to all of us that nobody had the guts to reach out! Well of course...except for you Lucy" we watched as she grabbed Lucy's hand, holding it tightly.

"So let's go! Everyone's waiting!"

The blonde mumbled a bit as Cana dragged her toward the remains of the guildhall, everyone was there.

Lucy stood there, looking around as all of our comrades stood in front of her, and it wasn't until she saw Mira that she began to cry. Both Mira and I embraced her, telling her to relax a bit as she continued to sob. She looked up at the two of us, and smiled brightly, pulling us into a tight hug.

"It feels so good to be home!" She shouted, releasing both Mira and I and turning toward Cana instead.

"Hey look what I found!" Natsu shouted, I looked over and smiled as a small tear left the corner of my eye.

Haruna ran over with her brother, the two of them grinning at the site of our guilds flag. I picked Haruna up off the ground and pulled Igneel to my side, it already felt so great being home.

Its been almost a week since then and we had been working on reconstruction of the guildhall since. Well, we were supposed to.

As of right now, everyone was either brawling or helping with nominations for our temporary guild master. I wasn't doing either, I was just sitting with Haruna on top of a large pile of wood, watching as her father continued to pick fights with everyone.

Haruna didn't show much interest in the brawl until she saw her father, causing her to let go of my fishnets and shift her attention completely to him, clapping and babbling as her father punched her uncle in the face.

"Pow! Pow!" She said, wildly waving her tiny fists.

She looked around as suddenly all the fighting had come to an abrupt end, then smiling brightly once again as she saw her aunt with a particularly irritated scowl. I laughed a bit as Natsu returned, slumped over in disappointment until Harun began reaching over to him.

"Papa!"

"Hi princess! Did you see me kick your uncles butt?"

"Yes!"

Suddenly a rather large commotion began as Erza blushed feverishly, denying the proposal of her being guild master. Suddenly, Doranbolt approached us, reintroducing himself as Mest before revealing that Master Makarov was in danger, then dragging Erza off someone, much to Natsu's dismay.

I got up off the wooden box, dragging Natsu with me toward Bisca and Alzack who had been watching our son along with their daughter. I handed Haruna over to them, saying that I needed to help with some instruction work.

Natsu and I then went toward Gray, Lucy and Wendy, who had also revealed that they were quite suspicious of whatever was going on. The five of us decided to follow behind the two of them.
