My entire guild stood outside the FairyTail doors, the loud blasting of music and bright lights escaping the windows. Milli stood beside me, wearing her nicest clothing.

"So....are we going to go in?" She asked, staring at the doors. I had just realised I was just glaring at the entrance, not letting a single member go in. I shook my head, afterwards patting my cheeks. I turned to Milli with a deep smile on my face.

"Sorry. Just reunion jitters."

She nodded before pushing open the doors, party decorations and food laid everywhere in the guild. The FairyTail guild went silent, before Natsu spoke up.

"Guys, Lucy and Celestial Origin is here!"

They all ran toward us, welcoming us to the party. Makarov pushed in front of them all, wearing a blue party hat and a smile on his face.

"Welcome Lucy and your guild. If you will, everyone come in."

My guild flooded into the hall, digging into the food and having fun on the dance floor. Makarov stopped me as everyone else passed by.

"I would like to have a friendly chat with you Lucy. Just master to master"

"Sure Makarov." I replied, following him to a separate table. We both sat down, admiring our guilds.

"Seems you and Natsu have made up!" He said, twisting around his shot glass.

"Yeah. It seems we have. I guess I couldn't stay mad forever!" I replied, turning my head to look at Natsu, who was chatting to Freed intently.

"Plus, our guilds seem to be getting along well. Cana seems to be having a drinking battle with one of your members." he continued, cheeks rosy.

"Yes. That's Sydney. Cana was apparently a role-model to her. Ever since she heard of her, she wanted to have a drinking match."

"I'm not sure if that's a good thing!" He said jokingly. I laughed, agreeing with him.

"Anyway Lucy, what magic does she use, this Sydney?"

I raised an eyebrow, rattling my brain to remember.

"Well, I hear she uses Nature Manipulation. Quiet a powerful ability of you ask me!"

He nodded, studying her closely. "Indeed Lucy....indeed."

"Well Master, nice talking to you. I better go have fun!"

"Hold on Lucy!!" He shouted out, stopping me in his tracks.

"Yes master?"

"Well, my children have been working hard, too hard in fact, to restore the name of this guild. I feel like they need a holiday, or time off as you would say it. I was just wondering if you and your group would tag along as well, for old times sake."

My face lit up, excitement rushing through me.

"Sure! We'd love too! When are we going?"

"The day after tomorrow. Give you time to pack everything."

I bowed politely. "Thank you Makarov."

"No worries Lucy."

I immediately ran off, catching up with everyone else. I walked over to Natsu and Freed, both of them talking casually. Natsu noticed me, giving his trademark grin.

"What's up Luce, being the master and all?"

"Nothing really. I feel like a normal member, except from all the paperwork of course."

He pointed at the bar, Mira smiling at me.

"Want a drink Luce? Me and Freed are gonna battle now."

The both walked out, leaving me sitting in my old, usual space. It felt so weird now. Everything was different, yet more normal now.

"Strawberry Milkshake?" Mira asked, getting ready to grab the strawberries in the basket beneath the desk.

"Yes please Mira. Thanks."

She walked off, leaving me sitting alone. I could just hear the guild doors opening, four familiar faces walking into the hall.

"Hello FairyTail!" Sting said, Lector just by his foot. I smiled as Rogue held Frosch tightly, sighing.

"I didn't want to come Sting." he said quietly. I turned to look at Milli, who was about to pass out.

Huh, who knew reunions could be fun?

I focused my gaze on Sting, who jogged up to an amazed Milli.

"Hi Milli! What's up?" He asked nicely, rubbing the back of his neck.

"I-I'm fin-fine thanks..." she replied, still trying to process what's happening. I was going to burst into tears of laughter. I heard a gentle clink of glass land on the table. My strawberry milkshake had arrived.

"Thanks Mira!" I said to her, receiving a smile in return. Before she could walk away, I stopped her.

"Where's Lisanna by the way? She doesn't seem to be here."

I saw Mira-Jane sigh, her face flushed.

"Well, Lisanna.......she stupidly decided to take a century quest!"

I wanted to smile, but I held it back.

"R-Really?" I asked, my eyes watering from holding in my giggles.

"Yes. Well, I better go. People are probably waiting for their drinks."

As she walked away, I let out a few childish giggles. Soon, I could feel a dark presence calling out to me outside the guild, the aura familiar and warm.
