*Lyon's POV*

The moment she left Roubaul Cait Shelter's Master appeared. "You're the one who tried to keep her under weren't you?" I demanded. Wendy started to protest when he said "It seems that I must explain why I tried to do what I did." I gave him a stiff nod and he softly began to explain "We are not decedents from the Nirvit tribe, instead we are the original tribe. 400 years ago I created Nirvana to stop the raging wars in our country. But the darkness we removed somehow became a part of us and we ended up raging war on ourselves. I was the only one to escape, only to die and live on in spirit form. I sealed it away since I was unable to destroy it, and settled here to watch over it."

"What's that got to do with Y/N?" Lucy demanded. "She is the intended bride of Zeref, the one who created the evil that destroyed my people, the same evil that gave her life and raised her as his own" he stated. "What do you mean by gave her life?" Erza demanded. "Your friend may not be evil herself, but because she was genetically mutated from Zeref's blood there may come a time when that changes" he replied softly. "So because of who she is, you decided to end her life to avoid the chance of her becoming evil? It was Y/N who risked her life to save ours, she was the one that destroyed Nirvana" I stated as the others nodded.

"And the nature of the spell she used possessed dark magic correct? She may have used the spell for good, but it also awakened the evil that had once lain dormant within her" he said. "But Master Y/N has done nothing to deserve death. She heals the sick and wounded no matter who they are or what side their own" Wendy stated. Roubaul became visibly upset when Wendy called him Master and said "I am not a Guild Master, and this isn't a true guild. I turned the town into a guild and created the people within it so you wouldn't be sad when your companion left you here. But now you no longer need fake companions when you've found yourself real ones. This is only the beginning."

He looked towards us and asked us to look after Wendy and Carla and then started to fade away and then vanished when Wendy tried to reach him. She fell to her knees as her mark was erased from her arm, tears falling from her eyes as she called out for Roubaul. I saw Erza take a step forward only to halt when Y/N appeared. She held out her hand and with a small smile and Wendy took it without any hesitation. Y/N helped her up and then pulled her into an embrace as she told Wendy that everything would be alright. When Wendy quieted Y/N brought her over to Erza who invited Wendy to come with them to the Fairy Tail Guild.

*Reader's POV*

After handing Wendy over to Erza we decided that we'd walk halfway there and then set up camp for the night before going on our own separate ways. I walked behind the others avoiding their questioning looks. When they found the perfect spot to camp I did what I could and then walked away to find a quiet place. I found a spot underneath a large oak and sat at it's roots while I closed my eyes. I felt the wind on my face as it rustled through the leaves and carried the others voices to my ears.

Only for the peace and quiet to be interrupted by Lyon who asked "What did you mean by the statement earlier?" I kept my eyes closed as I said "When I fled the lab I took refuge in a village. During the winter thaw there was a boy who fell into the water. I dived in, and brought him ashore. But the Icy water and rock he had crashed into had already taken his life, his pulse slowed, and his heartbeat faded. I revived him by the Living Magic I had been taught, when he woke he gave me the sweetest smile that had ever existed, but a group of villagers saw me. They knew the deadly nature of my magic and accused me of killing the boy myself. I ran and when they caught me they planned on returning me to the village, but a woman stepped in and protected me with Ice-Make Magic. I escaped into the snow and ice and was found by Porlyusia, who to a genetic creation like myself had become so much more than just a guardian, she was my grandmother, mother, and my sister all at once."

"I still don't understand what that had to do with me or my mentor" he stated. I opened my eyes and looked back at him as I said "The boy possessed the same bluish silver hair and the same dark eyes as you. And the woman had dark purple chin length hair. Both of you were the reason I lost my arm and why I became who I am today. I may have followed Porlyusia's footsteps when I got older, but it was your mentor that inspired me when she allowed me to live. I thank you for the things you and your mentor have done for me." He was silent for a moment before he said "That would explain the sense of déjà vu I experienced, but there's something that puzzles me, you share blood with Deliora, but by the way you looked at him that night it was like you knew him personally. Do you know how he was created?"

Slowly I nodded and said "He had once been my friend, but he wanted power, craved it to such an extent that he pleaded with Zeref to give him what he desired. Zeref gave, and the demon Deliora was created." He met my gaze and said "There's something that your not telling me isn't there?" I bit my lip and said "While in his care Zeref taught me several spells, told me that as his intended it was my duty to learn the same magic he himself used. Under his personal instruction I learned Ankhseram Black Magic, Living Magic, and Immobilization Magic. It was while I was under Porlyusia's supervision that I created Iced Ankhseram Shell, a powerful spell that I could use to destroy Zeref."

"What else do you know?" he asked. "I know there are things I can still learn from Ice-Make Magic, but it's hard to find a teacher willing to teach me the things I can learn without teaching me the things I can. Because of this I've branched off from Ice-Make Magic to learn what I could from Water Magic. Under Juvia's instruction I've learned Water Body, and Water Make: Blood, now since I've learned all I could from Juvia I'm going to move on to Snow Magic" I replied. "Why are you trying to learn all you can?" he asked.

"As a healer I wish to learn everything I can so that I can give the same option your mentor gave me to others. However I noticed that even though you prefer to use Dynamic Ice-Make, but you also use Static Ice-Make. I would like to know if you'd be willing to teach me what you can about Static Ice-Make" I replied. However he remained silent until I said "Lyon?.........Lyon?" He met my gaze and said "I'm thinking." He fell silent once more then said "We'll meet here later and I'll teach you the few things I can."

I gave him a brilliant smile and said "Have Sherry come too." "You make it sound like you don't want to be alone with me. Finally developing some modesty on your part?" he stated. I laughed and said "Of course I don't want to be alone with you. I don't need or want Sherry to see me as a potential Love Rival. Which has nothing to do with modesty or on my part lack there of." Immediately after hearing my words he left.

*Lyon's POV*

I internally scolded myself for making such an impulsive decision, especially reminding myself of the night she was under me. My skin turned hot as my heart pounded and my palms tingled. I tried to shake off the memory of her naked body but the more I fought it the harder it was. Because of my body's reaction I knew that training her would be difficult, and it would be harder to contain my personal instincts. I was startled by Gray's sudden appearance. "If Roubaul was right teaching her would be a bad idea" he stated from his position by the tree. "I take it that you and the others were listening then?" I asked.

He shook his head and said "The others are back at the camp, I heard the last part of your conversation when I went to take a leak." "The magic she wishes to possess isn't offensive, nor is the magic she uses. In my time of knowing her she has never hurt anyone, never used her knowledge of the Black Arts to destroy anything but Nirvana. If you really want to let one man's judgment cloud your own that's up to you, but don't use that judgment to make the wrong decision. Yes it's true that she was genetically created by Zeref with the intention that she'd become his bride, but from what I know about her and from what I've seen the only person she'd willingly destroy would be Zeref himself, and even by doing that she'd be saving others. All I'm planning on teaching her is Ice-Make: Clone and Fireworks. I'm also considering telling her what I know about Ice-Make: Diamond Cage and Prison, it would be interesting to see if she manages to create her own spell from those last two" I said. He nodded and then left.
