Before you start, this whole chapter is going to be in Yu's POV, meaning I'll be skipping a lot and I mean LOT of scenes and episodes so it wouldn't be a tedious work on my part. If there are no complaints about it, then enjoy!

As Yu hastily exited the bar, his departure leaving Maria to finish her meal solo, she wore a contented smile while taking care of the bill for both of them. Meanwhile, Yu, glancing at the train station's timetable, recognized the impending departure time and acknowledged that reaching Magnolia on schedule was becoming increasingly improbable.

Yu clicked his tongue in frustration, though his demeanor remained composed. "I need to find a way back to Fairy Tail, and fast," he muttered to himself, scanning the bustling surroundings for a solution. Just then, his keen senses detected a familiar presence nearby.

Turning around, Yu's gaze fell upon a familiar figure. Clad in a dark blue cloak and adorned with bandages wrapping his arms and legs, the individual wore a matching dark blue bandana, featuring a silver forehead protector. A green, camouflage-patterned mask concealed the lower half of his face, shrouding his identity. Notably, he carried staves on his back, hinting at his proficiency in combat.

"Well, well, well..." Yu's voice carried a hint of nostalgia as he spoke. "It's been a long time, Mystogan," he greeted the familiar figure with a warm yet slightly surprised tone.

"Yu..." Mystogan's voice carried a sense of recognition as he approached. "It's good to see you back in Fiore," he remarked, his tone welcoming, yet silent. As he acknowledged Yu's return.

"It's good to be back," Yu replied, a sense of determination underlying his words. "But we can't afford to relax and reminisce like we used to. Urgent matters require our attention," he stated, conveying the seriousness of their situation.

"Yes, I'm aware," Mystogan replied solemnly, his expression reflecting his understanding of the ongoing conflict between Phantom Lord and Fairy Tail. "I've been keeping up with the situation over the past few days," he added, confirming his knowledge of the recent events unfolding between the two guilds.

"Embarrassing to admit, but do you happen to have a teleportation lacrima?" Yu inquired, his tone tinged with a hint of urgency.

With a nod of understanding, Mystogan retrieved a spherical orb from his cloak, revealing it to be a teleportation lacrima. Handing it over to Yu, he spoke with earnest sincerity, "Here you go. Please, save the guild," he implored, his words carrying the weight of their shared responsibility.

Initially surprised by Mystogan's decision not to accompany him to Magnolia, Yu quickly realized the necessity of their divide-and-conquer strategy. Recollecting the existence of other Phantom Lord bases nearby, he swiftly shared several alternative locations with Mystogan. Understanding the plan, Mystogan nodded in acknowledgment before taking his leave, ready to take action and assist in their mission from a different front.
