Fairy Tails First Dragonslayer

Part one

It had been so long since I've been back home, back to Fairy Tail.

She had been sleeping in a state of suspended animation for Fifteen years, and was finally able to go home.

'I hope Laxus is there when I get there.' She smiled at the thought of the little blonde boy that she cared about so much; the child was so full of light and love.

She had spent much of her time with the little boy when not on jobs.

At first it was that he would follow her around, either the guild or around town, at first Master was a little hesitant to allow his beloved grandson to spend so much time alone with her, but after some explaining and some observation realized that it wasn't just Laxus that gravitated to her but other children as well, they always loved to hear stories of her previous jobs.

He was nine when I left, and I've been gone for fifteen years, he should be twenty-four, I wonder what he's like now.

It didn't matter she decided, she would be content if it meant he might remember her, "I'm almost home, Laxus." She said to herself even as she boarded the train to Magnolia, even if it meant horrible motion sickness it would be worth it.

~~~~~~~~~~~_!

The train ride, like she predicted was hell for her, so much so that she nearly passed out, it probably would have been better if she had...

It was mid-morning when her train pulled into Magnolia, the town looked the same and not at the same time but it still had that bright feel to it, that could only mean one thing; Makarov was still here, with a gentle smile on her face she made her way down a familiar street and took in the sites after being away for so long.

As she got closer she noticed that the building in the distance was different, she was glad for the traveling cloak she wore as it allowed her to walk around unobserved by those around her as she let her excitement and underlying concern grew the closer she got and realized that the building was now a castle, the Dragon in her was ecstatic but the human part of her was worried about what could have made them have to remodel.

'It's bigger now, I wonder what it looks like inside,' she thought and crosses the main gate to give the outer grounds a once over, she finds an outdoor eating area with umbrellas for shade and near that is what looks like a merchandise shop, 'Huh, that's genius,' she thinks to herself even as she makes her way over to the stand to peruse its wares.

While she's looking over the new clothes, figurines, lacrima and other such merchandise, she noticed a magazine that said 'Sorcerer' and decided to take a look, while she was looking at the magazine the clerk came over and introduced himself as Max and asked if she was new to the town as he hadn't seen her around before.

"Yes and No, I've been here before but that was a long time ago. I didn't know that Master Makarov had wanted to remodel." She subtly commented and waited for him to take the bait, fellow Fairy Tail mage or not she wanted answers and what better way to get those then right from the horse's mouth.

The guild had been attacked by Phantom Lord, but we had won and that had been what had prompted the rebuilding of the guild not the remodeling.

She really can't find it in herself to hold a grudge against the younger Dragon Slayer as he had only been doing what his previous Master had ordered him to do, and from what she could gather he had grown up there; a place like that could twist anyone.

She smirked a bit at that, he was in Fairy Tail now, so now she can have more siblings.

"I've always wanted siblings." She said to herself.

"Huh?" looking at the other mage Juliana smiled and shook her head before paying for the magazine and making her way inside the guild hall, she stood there in the doorway and soaked it all in, the new look was a little disconcerting but at the same time exciting but she had to find the Master.
