Fairy Tail: Knight of the Dove

Chapter 3: Grandeeney's Last Gift

Third Pov

When our heroes open the door to Lucy's old home, they are immediately confused at what they see. There they stood in an empty hall, with not a single box in sight. All is silent until Wendy decides to speak up.

"Umm...Ms. Anna?" She asked. Anna turns to her, and much to the group's surprise, tears start to form in her eyes.

"Hey, what's wrong Anna?" Gray asked. The tears begin to fall more freely now as Anna tries in vain to keep them from falling. Suddenly, without warning, Anna walks up to Wendy and hugs her tightly.

"I'm sorry Wendy, I should've told you sooner." Anna says weakly. Wendy is in shock from the sudden action. She just stands there as the group watches in confusion at this.

"Should've told me what?" Wendy asks, not knowing what her teacher was talking about. Carla looks at Anna with suspicion when suddenly, Carla starts to have a premonition:

Wendy was backed up into a corner, holding a silver and gold lance, with a fearful look on her face. Above her, was a set of sharp claws that looked like they could cut through iron with no problem.
"Save me...GRANDEENEY!!! She screamed as the set of claws came bearing down at her.

"AAAAAAH!" Carla screams with fear as the vision ends. The rest of team Natsu whirl their heads to Carla after they hear her scream. Happy immediately puts his paws on Carla's shoulder and shakes her, trying to wake her up.

"Carla! Wake up! It's ok!" Carla immediately snaps out of her trance and looks at everyone, who have worried expressions on their faces. Carla takes a deep breath and looks at Anna with a worried expression.

"Anna, what's the real reason we're here?!"

Anna dries her tears, gets up, and gains a serious expression on her face as she explains everything."Alright, I'll tell you all the real reason for bringing you all here." Everyone leans in to listen.

"As you all know, about 400 years ago, Zeref, the dragons, and I put the to defeat Acnologia into action in which the dragons, Igneel, Metalicana, Grandeeney, Weisslogia, and Skiadrum would seal themselves within the bodies of their foster children, who would go to the future and slay Acnologia." Anna explains as the group listens intensely.

"But..." Anna continued. "One of the dragons, Grandeeney to be specific, possessed an artifact that existed from around the time of King Arthur." At that moment everyone (especially Wendy) looked at her in utter shock.

"My mother had an artifact that existed from King Arthur's time?!" Wendy exclaims in shock.

"What?" Gray asks.

"Really? Cool!" Natsu said with a grin on his face.

"Why in the world would Grandeeney have something around that era?" Lucy questioned, not understanding why a dragon would have something to do with a human King.

"What's going on here Anna, explain. Erza demanded.

"Yea, and why are you bringing this up now." Happy asked.

Anna looked at the ground and paused for a minute as if deciding how to answer team Natsu's questions. Finally, she looked up at them with a fierce gaze, as she told them the truth.
