"So you have come to visit me Natsu Dragneel...I wouldve expected Erza to be the one to visit me but I do have some things I wish to speak to you about too." Jellal spoke as Natsu pulled up a chair and sat himself outside of Jellals cell.
"Erza is dead." Natsu spoke, being as serious as he was when he and Jellal fought at the Tower of Heaven.
"W-What?" Jellal stuttered the news being broken to him.
"At the S class trials of Fairy Tail most of the participants died, including gramps and Erza. Only four of us survived." Natsu spoke as he looked into jellals eyes "You deserved to know, despite what you have done." Natsu spoke with seriousness as the jailed Wizard slumbed to the wall of his cell, tears escaping his eyes.
"Why...why did it have to be her?" Jellal teared up as Natsu leant in.
"She will be missed, the funeral was last week but I have this for you." Natsu slipped into Jellals cell a scarlet rose "this was in her room, the rest have been put at her grave but you deserve to have part of her with you" Natsu spoke as Jellal picked up the rose and held it to his chest.
"Thank you Natsu."
"Your time is up Dragneel, let's go." The magic council man spoke as Natsu brought himself to his feet.
"Ill visit you another time Jellal." Natsu spoke as he started walking away with the cell, leaving Jellal to mourn.

"I know I am supposed to maintain a professional facade but I am sorry for your loss Dragneel, even though the destruction was excessive your guild felt like the heart of magic guilds across Fiore." The guardsman spoke as Natsu looked at him.
"Thank you, I dont know what is going to happen from here but I never truly realized how blessed we were until we lost some of our strongest mages." Natsu spoke softly as at the end of the hallway, Doranbolt stood igniting a rage in his soul.
"You...You could've saved them...you couldve teleported them off the island and saved my guildmates!" Natsu roared as he punched Doranbolt with a firery fist in the council members stomach.
"Im sorry Dragneel...I tried but I wasnt allowed to act until Acnologia left." Doranbolt apologised as Natsu glared at the person who pretended to be his guildmate during the S class trials.
"He is the reason you are still here, if you were left floating there imagine what could've happened to you." Lahar, of the magic council, spoke as he walked up to the dragon slayer "You better calm down or we will have to put you under arrest." Lahar ordered as Natsu growled, holding himself back remembering what happened last time he stormed the headquarters.
"Stay away from my guild or you will regret it." Natsu growled as he stormed out of the council starting to head back to Magnolia.

On the edge of town a green haired woman was being chased by men in dirty clothing, all having magic circles active as they chased her "Come back here princess!" One of the men spoke before the four pursuers heard a voice behind them.
"Fire Dragons roar!" Natsu shouted as he sent a stream of fire out of his mouth, knocking out the attackers in the process.
As the dragon slayer looked to the green haired woman, who had stopped running, her unique necklace caught Natsu's interest "You are the Salamander of Fairy Tail." The woman panted as he nodded approaching her.
"I am, Natsu Dragneel at your service. I do apologise but is that a Dragon Slayer Lacrima?" The dragon slayer enquired as the woman nodded.
"Indeed, my family is in need of dragon slayers and after the casualties of Tenroujima we felt we had no choice but to use this Lacrima to get some new ones. We have no one to use it on though." The woman spoke as she held the lacrima in her hand.
"Well you have the attention of one," Natsu replied as his hand set on fire for a split second.
"Unfortunately we are in need of more, this lacrima here is that of a Water Dragon Slayer and we have more back at my home." The woman shook her head.
"Why not leave that to me? I will be easy to find at Fairy Tail and if you can supply some Dragon Lacrimas I can find people to help." Natsu offered as gears started ticking in the Green haired womans head.
"That could work...alright wait for a package from me at your guild, thank you for your assistance Natsu Dragneel."
