Ashes to Ashes ((FairyTail x OC))

Chapter 8- WAKE UP! And head to Edolas.

Ouch. Ouch. Ouch. Ouch. OUCH! Why do I always wake up in pain?!?! Like, DAMN! I can't remember anything. I just remember bright lights, fighting, and death. I try to open my eyes, but I can't. Something is keeping me from doing so. I keep trying until my head starts to hurt. I try to scream out, but I only get a small little gasp. What's wrong with me?

I hear some shuffling and voices. I make the voices out to be Scar, Pink, Happy, Gray, Erza, Lucy, Carla, Wendy, and...Natsu.

All the memories come flooding back to my brain. Akio, the fight, Annabel's death....

A small tear escapes my eye as the memories keep coming. I wonder where Sandalia went. That poor girl. She didn't know what she was doing. Akio saved her life, so, she helped him. It was never her fault.

And then there's Annabel. My precious Annabel. My baby. My light. All gone. What do I do now? I feel so cold. So alone. So dark. The light to my darkness went out. What do I do now? If there is no darkness to the light, then how is one supposed to see? Honestly, I don't want to wake up.

But then why am I still trying? I want to stay asleep, but something inside of me is telling me to wake up.

"GUYS!! I saw her eye twitch!! She's waking up!!!" No I'm not. I'm trying to wake up, but it's not working. Something is keeping me from doing so.

Then, I hear a wise-sounding female voice.

Kathryn.

What? Who is it? What do you want? Who are you?

I need you to listen to me.

Who are you? What's wrong?

It's coming.

Who's coming? What? Who are you?

Protect yourself.

I don't understand....

Save the guild.

What do you mean?

Run.

Huh?

Now, sweetheart, it's time. Wake up.

Then, my eyes snap open. Before I can say anything, I am tackled in a million hugs. Well, 9 hugs. Natsu, Erza, Gray, Lucy, Happy, Wendy, Carla, Pink, and Scar. I freeze. They all let go, except for Natsu, "You're alive!!! I thought you were gone, but you're alive!!"

I hug him, "It's best not to underestimate me, Natsu. I don't just leave without saying goodbye." What was that voice? It told about something coming and told me to run......

Natsu smiles and lets go of her, "Good. I don't know what I'd do if you died!" That's it. Maybe I should run. The closer I get to these people, the harder it'll be to leave. So, I need to leave now. It's for the best.

Right?

I sure do hope so.

I take in a deep breath and prepare myself to stand. I then sit up and put my legs over the side of the bed, "Mind helpin' me out?" Natsu nods and helps me stand. I do a few hops and then sigh, "There. Now, lets go to the guild hall. I miss everybody."

Natsu smiles, "Well, they miss you too. You HAVE been out for more than a year now." I choke on my saliva.

"WHAT?!?! A YEAR?!?! You're joking, right?" I look at everybody, but their faces tell me he isn't. I blink and gulp, "Oh." We then start walking where the res of the guild is. At the sight of me, everybody cheers.

Some people say, "SHE LIVES ON!!" I hear a, "ABOUT TIME SHE'S AWAKE!!!" Then a, "I THOUGHT FOR SURE YOU WERE DEAD!!"

I chuckle, "I need a drink...." I then hobble towards the bar only to be stopped by Makarov.

"When you have time, I want you to explain to me exactly what happened." He then hugs me, crying, "I'VE MISSED YOU SO MUUUCH!!" Erza has to come pull him off.

I smile softly, surprising everybody, "I've missed you too." Then I look at everybody, "I've missed you all so much." I smile bigger. The guild members blink in unison, then tackle me in a tear-filled hug. I laugh a bit and hug everybody using my shadows.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Time skip brought to you by Author-Chan's laziness!!!~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We spent the rest of the day celebrating. Mira caught me up on all the new info. Lucy FINALLY won the Miss FairyTail contest, which is actually coming up soon. Oh well......I need to leave. Plenty of more things happened, but I forgot already.

I sigh and start to head home. I hear a rumble in the sky and stop walking. Then, it starts to pour rain. I look up at the sky to see a weird swirling thing. Then, fear struck her, ".....No......" I tries to run towards the guild, but is stopped by running into a wall-type figure. I rub my head and look at what, or should I say who, stopped me, "Mystogan."

Mystogan chuckles under his mask, "Nice to see you too, Kathryn." I furrow my eyebrows.

"It's here." I look directly into his eyes. Mystogan sighs, "I know. I couldn't close it. I need you to take this." He hands me a small bottle with a bunch of tiny red balls in it, "Take one of them. All of us are going to be sent to a world without magic, but if we take one of these, we can use our magic." I nod and do as he says. Right when I take it, huge gusts of wind go by.

Mystogan pulls me into him, protecting me from the wind. He yells over it, "It won't take you away! You have dragon blood!!! You need to be careful!! This world will do whatever they can to have your magic! Don't let them win!!" I hang onto him for dear life. I am NOT letting it take me away to that hell hole again. NOT happening.

I close my eyes. Then, the wind stops and I looks around. I was still clutching Mystogan. Everything around me is gone. Magnolia is not there anymore. I looks up at Mystogan, "I knew this day would come.....I felt it...."

Mystogan takes off his mask, "I did to, Princess." I give a look that says, 'Don't even start.'

I sigh, "So, now I have to go back to that place.........Greeeeaaaat....." Mystogan chuckles at my sarcasm. Then, I furrow my eyebrows, "How am I gonna......"

Mystogan sighs, "You know what to do. We've made the plan. Now, we just need to put it into action." I nod and look away, only to remember I was still clutching onto him. Mystogan also seems to remember as a small smirk forms on his face. He pulls me closer, "You know, you're a really short girl."

I scoff and push away from him, blushing, "No. I am average height! You're just a very tall.....thing."

Mystogan raises his eyebrow, "I never knew 4'8 was average height. Everybody must be overly tall."

I roll my eyes, "You are always so mean to me. And you wonder why I am so grumpy." Mystogan shakes his head and sighs.

"Well, I'll see you up there. I need to go help with things...." I nod and Mystogan walks off. I watch him leave and then put our plan on go. I requip into my. There slits in the back of this armor for one reason.

.

My big, black, wonderful wings.

Annabel had them too, but hers were white and smaller. She's gone now, though.

I unfurl my wings and get ready to take off.

Taking a deep breath, I fly. I fly up into the swirling circle. Which sounds stupid now that I think about it, but it's the only way to get to the place I thought was my home.

As I fly higher, the light gets brighter. I have to cover my eyes to protect myself from the light.

I fly and fly until the light dies down. I take my arm away from my eyes and look around, a scowl on my face.

'Hello, Edolas.'
