By My Side (Jerza One Shots)

2.5 Back In Time

(I will leave so you can live better part 2)

Doranblot groaned and ran his hands through his hair in frustration. How are we supposed to tell her? "This is a mess."

Makarov nodded with his hands crossed. "A big mess indeed."

Outside the guild master's office, is as noisy as always. They have no idea of what fate has for them.

The two sat there, thinking about the consequences once the news was announced.

The representative of the magic council just left, after delivering the letters and left without a word. Nothing more needs to be said.

Doranbolt landed his fist on the nearest wall angrily with a loud crack. "D*mn you Jellal!"

That should probably lead to inner bleeding but he didn't care.

You bastard. How dare you leave us behind?

Then there was a knock on the door. "Master, did you call for me?" Followed by the sound of door opening and closing.

Master Makarov let out a deep sigh. In the end, I still couldn't protect my child.

"Erza, we've got something to tell you."

***

The Titania, Queen of Fairies, has fallen.

For the first time, she felt like her whole world was collapsing. Never did she feel so miserable before, not even that time when Kyouka humiliated her. not even when Neinhart revived her past enemy through historia of the dead. Not even when her long lost mother almost killed her.

But when she received the news from the guild master, she was broken. She tried her best not to let others worry about her, but no one tells her that she was as pale as a piece of paper.

Rumours spread like wildfire. In the end, it was confirmed by an official announcement:

Jellal Fernandes is no more.

Along with the smile of a beauty named Erza Scarlet. 

Everything after that was left unsaid.

***

A few months later after Jellal's death, the Hell's Corner invaded Hargeon. The army of Hargeon was completely annihilated in a single night. 

To the citizens of Hargeon, that night is nothing but just another peaceful night. Meanwhile, the army base has been turned to a slaughterhouse. 

The next day morning, people of Hargeon found out and soon all of Fiore knows about the news.

They are not just a dark guild anymore.

They are an army of assassins, starting a rebellion against the country.

This is their first warning. 

"The war is bound to begin. So why bother to lose your life when you still can live peacefully for a little longer?"

Doranbolt managed to dodge the blast but that dodge just made his injuries worse. He laughed in a sinister manner, almost at the edge of sanity.

"There is one thing you should know about us, General Xan." He spat out some blood and glared at the hooded man who has a purple scar on his neck.

 "We rather die here," He stood up despite his body is in a mess. "than to let our best friend die in vain!"

A big explosion occurred.

He thought that would be his last moment, but as soon as he woke up, he knew he is alive. Not really well, but still alive.
