Lior's POV
It's funny...
The last time I walked through these doors, I was an enemy.
I was currently standing outside the Fairy Tail guild doors, debating my going in.
I thought about knocking.
How should I approach them?
After all, I didn't want to come off with bad intentions.
I'd come to apologize.
Finally, I opened the door as normal as anyone would, looking around the room.
It was bustling with people.
I took a step inside.
I really hoped not to catch too much attention for now.
"Lior! What brings you here?!" Their master yelled from the second floor of the guild hall.
Everyone looked at me, a bit of hostility in their eyes.
I didn't blame them.
"U-um... I... I've regained memory of what I did to you. I just came to apologize to you all, especially to Lucy."
"Lucy's out of commission right now." A pink-haired boy says.
"W-What do you mean?"
"Lucy used her magic to end the battle, but she got herself corrupted. We haven't found a way to undo it yet..."
What?!
Lucy...
This was all my fault...
"You were close with Lilith. She planned on using Lucy's power for Black Rose, correct? Surely she had a way to reverse the effects if they backfired..." The Fairy Tail Master suggests.
"I-I don't know... I can't remember much of anything. Things are just... nonsensical at the moment."
The man nods.
"I see..."
I look down at me feet, regretful of my
lack of help."Lior..." The man starts again.
I look to him.
"Why don't you stay here? Let us know if you gain any important information on helping Lucy?"
I had many reasons to say yes.
I owed them.
I owed Lucy.
I had nowhere to go.
I also had no reason to say no.
Of course, even without these reasons, I gladly would've complied.
"If you'll have me... Sorry to be a nuisance..."
I knew some members may not've been comfortable with my staying here, considering my past interactions.
"Don't be silly. I'll show you where you'll be staying." A girl states with a smile.
She looks familiar.
I remember one certain moment before bowing to her.
"I'm sorry! I'm s-sorry for calling you fairy trash!"
I hear her giggle.
"I know you weren't yourself. Besides, I don't have a grudge with you or anything."
The people here were so kindhearted.
I'm glad Lucy is with them, and I'm glad I can be a part of helping her.
I only wish I could remember more...
