Separated by Sin

What if Jellal Fernandes never told Erza Scarlet he was engaged? How would their relationship would have worked? Would it have been possible? How can two people make the long distance thing work?

In an alternate universe separate from Mashima's version of the tale, Jellal and Erza reveled in the passion sparked that day on the beach and nurtured it into a relationship. There were still problems, though. Jellal had no intention of giving up on Crime Sorciére's quest to atone for their sins. Also, despite what Erza would want for herself, he refused to allow her to be involved with a wanted criminal as that's what he was.

Of course, Erza had things she could not simply allow people to know as well. So on her end, their budding relationship had to be kept a secret, especially from the rest of Fairy Tail. At least until she deemed it the proper time to come forward. Her nickname was Titania and by definition, which meant she was the Queen of the Fairies. Pure. Well respected and had a reputation to uphold. She had aspirations of her own that a relationship may have gotten in the way of.

In this story, we join up with Jellal and Erza on the morning after they reluctantly set off in different directions, leaving the beach with heavy hearts and a raging blaze of hope filling their souls, propelling them forward.
