Natsu, Lucy, and Happy came last. Lucy had a very guilty look on her face. Of course it raised a lot of questions. Happy explained everything to the Fairy Tail members what was happening. Master Jose received a job from a wealthy person from the Heartfillia family to bring back the daughter of the Heartfillia family who ran away from home. It turned out that Lucy was the daughter he meant.

Even so, Master Jose didn't need to attack Fairy Tail like this. Lucy couldn't help but be silent and blame everything to herself.

"What's the matter? Still feel uneasy?" Gray noticed his friend's downcast face.

Lucy murmured. "No, it isn't that. It's just... I'm sorry..."

"Well, it's the destiny of rich daughters to be targeted by people. And men are duty-bound to protect them." Elfman commented.

"Don't say stuff like that!" Gray whispered.

"But it came as a shock to me. Why did you hide the truth, Lucy?" Happy asked.

"It wasn't that I was hiding it. I was a runaway, so I just never really wanted to talk about it. He didn't give a care about his daughter being gone for a year, but then suddenly he wants to drag me back." Lucy looked irritated. "Daddy did all this to bring me back. He's the worst! Still, it was my running away that caused all of this."

"That ain't right! Your dad's the one to blame!" Elfman said.

Gray stopped him. "You idiot!"

"I never thought my selfish actions would cause you all so much trouble. I'm really sorry. This would all end if I went home, wouldn't it?" Lucy said.

"I dunno about that. I just can't see you being called 'Lady.' If anything suits you, it's laughing in this filthy pub and freaking out while on an adventure. You said you want to stay here, right?" Natsu said. "Why would you go back to somewhere you don't want to? You're Lucy of Fairy Tail. This is where you belong."

Lucy was very moved to hear Natsu say that. She had never had a friend who would accept her like Fairy Tail. She couldn't help but cry.

"Don't cry. It ain't like you." Gray said.

"That's right! Men are weak against tears!" Elfman commented.

Lucy rubbed her eyes. She remembered when she went out and shopping together with Louisa in Magnolia. Louisa once said she liked seeing her smiling face.

---ooo---

Mira and Cana are trying to contact Mystogan and Laxus. Seeing Master Makarov not recovering made them absolutely sure that Phantom Lord would attack them again. Right now there was only Erza protecting them.

Louisa just contacted Mira and said she was on her way back to the Fairy Tail guild. When Mira told Master Makarov's condition to Louisa, she was sure can see Louisa silent. She didn't look angry, but... focused. That alone was enough to make Mira a little scared. She wasn't afraid of anything though.
