***Rachel's p.o.v***

I groaned, feeling really dizzy.

"Rachel!" Someone cried.

I opened my eyes to see an older Bisca crying in front of me, who was, ... upside down?

I glanced around to see myself hanging upside down tangled up in a tree. Heh. That's why I was so dizzy. After untangling myself and sitting up to get the blood flowing out of my head, I hopped down from the tree in front of Bisca.

In tears of joy, she leaps at me squeezing me in a death hug, crying into my shoulder.

I patted her back to calm her down before questioning, "What happened? And how are you so much older?"

"When the dragon attacked, I was able to convert the bonds of trust and friendship between your guildmates into pure magic power. Their bonds were so strong that Fairy Sphere was activated, one of the three grand Fairy spells. It is an absolute defense spell capable of defending the guild against all manner of evil. Those inside the impenetrable sphere were in a suspended state. It's been seven long years, but the spell has finally been lifted," First Master Mavis explained.

'Seven years?' I thought shocked.

***Timeskip***

Arriving at the guildhall there was a group of hooligans attacking the guild who Natsu, Gray, Gajeel, Erza, and Master made quick work of.

"Look who's back!" Natsu shouts with a chuckle.

"Sorry to keep you waiting!" Happy shouts as well.

Ever, Bickslow and I were hanging out in the guild with Laxus before Master decided to kick him out again.

"She sure has changed a lot since the last time I saw her," Laxus mutters staring in Rachel's direction.

We turned to watch Rachel happily catch up with Bisca and Laki.

"She always looked like she was forcing herself to be happy before, like there was a dark shadow over top of her stopping her from being happy. She actually looks really happy now, almost as if that shadow is still there but not as much as before. I wonder what was stopping her from being this happy before?" Laxus mutters.

Ever, Bickslow, and I shared a worried glance. "A lot has happened since you left," Bickslow mutters sadly.

"You've said that twice now. What the hell could've happened?" Laxus questions us.

We shared another glance before I sighed saying, "I'll catch him up. You guys just make sure she doesn't hear us."

"But Freed-" Bickslow starts.
