A Second Chance to Save Fairy Tail

Chapter 7: Phamton Lord Arc: Part 1

IMPORTANT MESSAGE AT BOTTOM SO MAKE SURE TO READ IT.

Team Natsu plus Ur and Elfman were walking up a hill overlooking Magnolia. They had left Leon with Ultear to be turned in to the council and went their separate ways.
"I'm so ready to get back to my home. I haven't had a good sleep in ages." Lucy said.
"I wouldn't get too comfortable. You still have to receive punishment from Master. I want you to know that I will not defend you in the slightest." Erza stated.
"What's the worst that can happen. It's not like we'll get kicked out right...right?" Questioned a nervous Lucy.
"Mostly likely not. I'm hoping master will give you...that." Erza snickered.
Lucy didn't know what it meant but it seemed to effect Gray and Elfman.
"No please. Anything but that." They both begged.
Natsu was behind everyone thinking about if the stuff with Phantom would change. He didn't like how it happened the first time. A lot of people were hurt.
Reaching the top of the hill they stopped and had wide eyes seeing large metal poles sticking out from there guild hall.
"What happened to our guild?" Asked Gray.
"Let's hurry down an see if we can find out." Erza said.
They hurried down to the hall to see if their members where okay. Approaching the guild they were meet by Mira.
"Come on guys. We set up shop in the basement. I'll explain when we get down there."
Once in the basement they were relived to see no one was hurt or anything. Mira waved them over to the master who was a little buzzed from alcohol.
"Mira. What happened to the guild hall?" Asked Erza
"It was Phantom Lord. They did this to our hall." She responded.
"Wait a second. What's Phantom Lord?" Asked Lucy.
"Phantom Lord is Fairy Tail's rival guild. Were the top two guilds on the continent and we have a long history of problems." Mira said.
"Well we're gonna do something about this right. We can't let them get away with trashing our guild." Gray said.
"We are going to do absolutely nothing. So what they they trashed the guild hall. I say their cowards for doing it when no one was here. And don't think I forgot what you three did. I've prepared the perfect punishment for you. I'm going to give you...that."
Before anyone could move Master proceeded to give Gray and Elfman a chop to the noggin. He however smacked Lucy in the ass inciting a quick scold from Mira.
"I'll be back. Gotta take a leak." He said before darting off.
"We can't just do nothing. They trashed our hall so are we gonna just let them get away with that." Yelled Gray.
"While I don't agree with the Masters decision we must respect it." Erza said.
"Natsu. The master will listen to you. Could you talk to him." Gray pleaded
"Sorry snow cone. I agree with Erza. He's the master so we must respect him decision."
Erza's cheeks visibly heated up from the fact that Natsu trusted her. No really noticed it accept for one she devil.
"Ummmm. This seems like a bad time so I'm just gonna go. Said a uncomfortable Ur. She turned around only to bump into Natsu.
"Nonsense. Your told me you were gonna join. So let's go get your stamp."
Not wanting to say no she went to Mira who was happy to be interested in her.
"Hi, my name is Mirajane but you can call me Mira. May I ask who you are? Mira asked.
"No problem. My name is Ur. Nice to meet you Mira."
"Wait. Are you thee Ur. The one who taught Gray his magic."
"Yes I am. I'm also the one who gave Gray his supposed stripping habit."
"I thought you died sealing away Deliora. How are you still alive?"
"I'm not so sure. Why don't you ask this handsome lad right her." Ur said motioning to Natsu. Everyone looked at him waiting for a answer.
"Let's just say I gained a new power that allowed me to reset Ur's time in the ice."
He demonstrated this by taking a chair and hitting Gray with it causing it to break. He then waved his hand and all the pieces came back and remade the chair. Master had just walked in to see this astonishing power.
"Good going Natsu. Now I'll never have to buy new furniture if you just rewind back there life time."
Everyone sweat dropped at the masters cheapness before returning to there respective areas. Natsu yawned realizing that it was pretty late.
"I'm think I'm going to go home. Do you have anywhere to stay Ur?"
"No. I was gonna asked Gray but if your willing I could just stay with you."
They walked out of the guild with the only one of them hearing them. Mira got a devilish grin before walking over to Erza who was eating some cake.
"Hey Erza. I just saw Natsu leave the guild. He said he was going home."
"It is pretty late. What about it?"
"Well. I saw him invite Ur to stay with him."
Erza nearly choked on the piece of cake in her mouth. She quickly looked at Mirajane before sprinting out of the guild hall. About 30 seconds later she came back inside and walked up to Mira.
"I don't know where Natsu lives. Do you know anyone who does?" Erza asked.
"I think Lucy knowns whe-." Before Mira could finish her sentence Erza had ran off to grab the celestial wizard and yank her outside.
Lucy was very confused right now. She had been talking to Levy about books only for her to feel a slight pain in her arm and she was outside. She barely had time to register what happened before Erza was yelling in her face.
"Lucy. Where does Natsu live. Tell me now."
"U-uhhh. H- he lives i-in the forest."
"That's not specific enough. You must show me quick because time is of the essence."
Lucy ran in the direction of Natsu's house trying to remember where it was. After a good 10 mins of jogging they reached Natsu's house. Erza was fine but Lucy was completely out of breath. Her tiredness vanished when Natsu's voice came from inside the house.
"Oh god Ur. This is amazing."
Lucy and Erza's faces went red as dirty thoughts rushed to there brains. Erza requiped a sword ready to cause some pain. She kicked down Natsu's door but was shocked by the sight. Ur was cooking while Natsu and Happy were at the kitchen table eating.
"Erza,Lucy, what are you guys doing here and why do you look so angry."
"Ummm. I thought you guys were doing....vulgar things."
"What do you mean. I'm just eating some of Ur's cooking. It's so amazing that it may be better than Lucy's." Natsu said.
"We wouldn't do such things. At least not yet." Ur said while winking at Erza who grew a tick mark.
"What's going on here and who's house is this."
Everyone turned and saw Gray entering Natsu's house. He looked confused seeing a angry Erza,an eating Natsu, a cooking Ur, and blushing Lucy.
"Natsu. Is this your house...I've finally found out where you live." Gray cheered
"What do you mean found out. Where I lived was never a secret." Natsu said
"But no one never knew where you lived at." Gray responded.
"No one ever asked me where I live at."
Seeing that Natsu was indeed correct Gray gave up and plopped himself at the table. He then began to get some food from Ur and eat.
"What are you doing Gray. She's making that food for me and me alone." Natsu whined.
"Now now Natsu. I know I promised that I would make you some food for letting me stay here but I can't deny my hungry pupil some food."  Ur said.
After everyone had ate Natsu was surprised when they made themselves at home.
'This must be what Lucy feels like.' Natsu thought.
"So what's the deal with Phantom Lord?Why do they hate us so much?" Lucy asked.
"Phantom Lord is Fairy Tail's rival guild and we have had a number of run ins in the past. There usually small things but never something this big. Erza said.
"Mira said that they were one of the top guilds in Fiore. Is that true?"
"Yes. Phantoms and Fairy Tails offensive powers of our roughly equal if you subtract out our top wizards. They have a group of Elite S-class wizards know as the element four. However there most dangerous member would be black steel Gajeel. The iron dragon slayer." Erza infromed
"There's another person out there like Natsu?" Lucy said while turning towards Natsu.
"No no no. There is only one of me." Natsu shouted.
"The last thing is that there Master who's name is Jose is a wizard saint along with our master. They are said to be equal in terms of power." Erza finished.
"Wow. All this talk is kinda scary. Makes me a little nervous to go outside. Is is okay if I crash here for the night Natsu?" Lucy asked.
"Sure. I go plenty of futons. How about all of you stay just in case some more of Phantom is out tonight."
Everyone stared to get ready for bed as Natsu walked into his bedroom followed by Ur. Erza noticed this and promptly retrieved her from the room and gave her a futon.
It was in the middle of the night and Natsu was wide awake. He was thinking about what's about to happen to Team Shadow Gear. He debated whether he should intervene but decided against it as it brought the guild together and Gajeel was forgiven in the future. He sighed before laying in his bed and trying to get some sleep.
