Ah, early morning in Magnolia, shunning sun, the melodic chorus of singing birds. Our view now zooms into a window seeing Lucy sleeping on a bed. She opened her eyes, sat up and gave a rather audible but discrete yawn, "huh?" She groaned as she looked around the room.

Only thing was, it wasn't her room, "Huh? Where am I? This isn't my room... why am I... oh yeah... that" she groaned again. And explanation...

(FLASHBACK TO TWO DAYS AGO BROUGHT TO YOU BY MR. SMOOTHIE!!!!!!!)

We see Lucy walking to her house from the guild, it's been a day an a half since Ben and Erza's kids were born. Lucy still can't get the sight of the adorable triplets out of her head, it made her heart flutter.

Along with them, she couldn't get the birth smell off her hands after catching Ezra after she was born. "Man I can't wait to go to sleep in my own bed again" she sighed, the blonde arrived at her apartment and opened the door. Only she saw the face of her land lady... seven years older...

She said something about Lucy not paying her rent for seven years, she would've said more but, out of fear, Lucy ran away screaming worried of what she might say. And just assumed she got kicked out, she was running back to the guild when she bumped into the Tennyson family.

They asked why she was running, but she fell back on her head and was unconscious. Erza decided to carry her back to their house, but Ben had done it saying that she had to ease up considering.

When she woke up Lucy explained to them her predicament, and Ben allowed her to stay until she can get enough money to pay back her rent. Well actually he said he can lend her enough money but she refused, mainly because she didn't want to take him for Granted.

But Erza had said that she'd have to do something in return, So for the next two days they were discussing on what Lucy can do. During the time in between she spent her time around Ezra, turns out she got along great with her.

And after some time, she got along well with Ken and Kelly as well. Then they had an idea, Ben and Erza asked Lucy to babysit for them while they went on jobs. Lucky for them and her Lucy agreed, she rather liked being around the next Tennyson generation.

(FLASHBACK ENDING!!! ENJOY YOUR SMOOTHIE!!!)

The blonde then heard her door open, looking to the direction she saw Ezra peeking through. "Lu-Lu?" She chirped, plot break, remember when I said that Ezra was born more developed than Ken or Kelly?

Well by that I mean she's at the exact stage of development when babies begin to talk and walk around. She looked kind of like a one year old... strange I know, blame the Omnitrix and Erza's magic for that.

During the time when Ben and Erza's children... were...conceived... the Omnitrix had a Malfunction when Erza's magic had interacted with it. And had accidentally gave a genetic code that could allow a developing baby to grow faster.

And it had resulted in Ezra actually being biologically older than she was supposed to be. Despite being born last, the rest of her growth and development spurt actually started the next day after her birth and now back to the plot.

Lucy smiled at her, "hey Ezra, what's up?" She asked the kid, the supposed to be infant then walked into her room hugging a small teddy bear that looked like a cuter WildMutt. "Mom... and Dad... asked if you could come into the living room" she said.

Lucy nodded, got dressed and walked out with Ezra holding her hand, they then saw Ben and Erza standing next to the door with Ken and Kelly sitting in their crib. "Hey Lucy, me and Erza are about to leave for a job" Ben said, "so before we leave, let's go over some ground rules" his red haired wife said.

"Sure, Wait So are Wendy, Amber and Beth going also or are they staying?" Lucy asked. "Oh they're still in town, they're just visiting Beth's friend Asuka" Ben explained. "Anyway rule one, and a very important one... don't let the kids near my novels" Erza said with a dark aura around her. Scared she nodded in agreement, "two always keep an eye on the kids, make sure Ken does not climb anything. He gets energetic and often tries to get his legs working a lot" Ben said. "Also Kelly isn't allowed into the lab" Erza said pointing to a door labeled tech room. "She's extremely curious and likes to mess with the stuff Ben puts together", her husband then shrugged "I tried to re-create a lot of stuff when I first arrived here" he explained.

"Got it, and what about Ezra?" Lucy asked petting the girl's head, funny thing not mentioned on the day of her birth. She actually has mismatched eyes, her left eye is brown like Erza's, while her right eye is green like Ben's.

"Don't worry, she normally behaves, and you should know, when we get back and you're at the house we see you through the window" Ben said. "Yes, we always see her sitting still and smiling reading with you while Kelly and Ken crawl around" Erza added.

"Okay, just to clarify, don't let them get into your novels, keep Ken still and keep Kelly out of the lab. How about food?" Lucy asked the two parents. "Oh no worries, I just gave the twins some milk a little while ago" Erza said, Ben blushed when she said that. "Okay then, Want me to tidy up once in a while?"She added. "If you want, and thanks" Ben said, "if Wendy, Amber or Beth come back tell them we went on a job and we'll be back in a few days or less" Erza said as she went up to her babies.

"Me and you're daddy have to go for a while, we'll be back don't worry" she said kissing the twins. They giggled and made baby noises, Erza smiled then headed to her youngest daughter. "Okay Ezra, Mommy and daddy are going on a trip for short while, be good for Lu-Lu Okay?" She asked.

The brown tipped red head nodded "yes mama" she replied, Erza then kissed her forehead and she smiled. "Bye princess" Ben said kissing his new daughter's cheek and patted the twins's heads. "See you Soon sweetie, we'll be back Champ" he greeted as the couple left.

"Okay kids, why don't we go out for a while" Lucy said, the twins cheered while Ezra smiled and nodded. Lucy then opened a closet "I'm pretty sure your parents have a stroller some where" she said.

"It's in the tech room" Ezra said sitting with her two siblings, "daddy said he was making some changes to it" she explained. Lucy then sweatdropped, "well since your father said not to let Kelly in the lab we should think of something else" she sighed. "Don't worry I'll keep Kelly busy" Ezra said playing a game with her smaller yet older sister.

Lucy was thankful Ezra had a kind an mature behavior for her age, then went inside the lab and rolled out the stroller. "Okay kids (closes the door to the lab) time to go around town" she said picking up Ken and Kelly and put them in the stroller. While picking Ezra up and let her ride on her back piggyback style.

Our view now changes to Ben and Erza who are now driving down a road in the alien shapeshifter's car, the DX mark 10. Which was in surprisingly good shape despite not being used for seven years "Do you think Lucy will be okay?" Ben asked Erza concerned, "I know I sound like a helicopter parent, but I just want the kids to be safe" he said. "It's not just the kids I'm worried about, Lucy's going to be the one dealing with them" Erza said.

"True, but still" he replied, "I know Ben, I'm worried to, they are my babies after all. Three of the few things I deeply cherish and will protect with my life" she said putting a hand over her heart. "And what would be the other things?" Ben asked, "you, the guild, and my strawberry cheesecake" she said the last part giggling.

"Got you" Ben said tickling her stomach "hey Ben stop Knock it off!! Seriously I can't breath!!!" She wailed as they drove.

Our view is now shifted to Natsu and happy who had just entered the guild, "man what happened? We went to Lucy's apartment as usual, but an old woman there said she left and never came back" the Dragon slayer said. Levy, who over heard, them said "oh wait, Lucy was here with Ben while holding Ezra's hand a day ago saying that since she hadn't paid her rent for seven year she was kicked out" the blue haired book worm explained.

"What? So that explains why she wasn't at her apartment, but why was she with Ben?" Happy asked. Just then the aforementioned blonde walked into the guild hall, "so that was the change Ben made, this thing can fly" she said as Ezra peaked out of the stroller.*

"Is it over?" She asked dizzily, "hey Lucy" Gwen greeted, "why're you with Ben's kids, and where is he?" She asked. "Oh Ben and Erza went on a job so I'm watching them" Lucy explained, "HEY LUCY WHAT HAPPENED WHY WEREN'T YOU AT YOUR APARTMENT?!?!" Natsu yelled.

That when Ezra screamed and Ken and Kelly started crying, "NATSU!!! Gwen can you please cover their eyes?" Lucy said, when Ben's cousin covered the kids' eyes she rushed Natsu and kicked him square between the legs. "Natsu there are babies here, you shouldn't scream so loud" she scolded while picking Ezra up and gently bouncing her while rocking the stroller like a crib with her free leg.

"Much less Ben and Erza's kids, you do realize the consequence if they found out you made them cry?" She asked him, the pinkette thought, well as much as he could think. And after understanding he paled, "so is it true Lucy? You really did lose your apartment?" Mira asked.

"Yeah, or at least I think I did, I was kinda scared so I ran before my land lord could say anything else" she said embarrassed. "Well where are you staying for the time being?" A purple haired girl named Kinnana asked. Her shade of purple was darker than Laki's, "Well while I was running I ran into Ben and Erza. I was knocked out from the collision and they took me to their house" she explained.

Then Makorov came up to her "so, you're staying with them?" He asked, "kinda, they allowed me to stay until I can earn enough money to get my apartment and things back" she answered. "In exchange for staying I have to babysit their kids" Lucy added gently rubbing Ezra's Head.

"So if you're able to get in or out can... GAH?!?!?!?!" Natsu was interrupted by Amber slamming her fist in his face. "No Natsu, hey Lucy" the blonde armor mage greeted, "hey Amber, so how did that visit go?" Lucy asked, then Beth cane in with her arm around Asuka's shoulder.

"Great, Beth is twice as fun with her new powers" Asuka cheered as her friend picked her up with a Wildvine arm. Asuka was a young girl with Black hair, she's actually the daughter of Bisca and Alzack.

When both of them were younger, Beth saw Asuka picking flowers near the guild hall while her parents were talking about which job to take. The blonde Tennyson went up and introduced herself and they played for a while. Since then the duo has been inseparable, "I'll take that as a compliment" Bethany said putting her down.

"So mom and dad went on that job now" Wendy asked as she flew in with Carla. "Yeah, they said they won't be back for a few days or less, I'm just taking the twins and Ezra out for a while" Lucy replied.

"Neat, come on, I know a place where we could hang for a while" Amber said, "hey can we come too?" Gray asked. Stripped to his skivvies as usual, "NO WAY!!!!!!" Lucy, Amber, Beth and Carla yelled at once. "We aren't going to allow bad influences like you or Natsu to taint the babies!" Carla said. "Especially the hair ball" she added referring to Happy to which he slumped over.

"Come on kids let's follow your older sisters, and aunt" Lucy said as they flew out of the guild hall. "So where are we heading?" The blonde asked as they were descending. "Down to the beach near the lake behind Ben's house. Seven years ago I made a hideout down by the bank a few days after Ben took me in" she answered.

The armor mage lead the celestial girl, her dragon slayer sister and her younger siblings to lake Sciliora. And what had caught their attention was a bunch of vines lining a cliff wall. "Give me a sec" Amber instructed before pulling the vines to the side to reveal a cave dug into the cliff under Ben's house.

It had diamond support beams holding it up, a large couch able to hold five people, a bookshelf holding who knows how many books. And more, "Wow, how was it in such amazing condition?" Lucy asked.

"Yeah, it looks like it was freshly furnished" Wendy commented as Ezra peeped her head out of the stroller. "I used my Clockwork armor to refreshen it to pristine condition" the blonde said. "Wow, you did a good job Amber" Lucy complimented, "thanks, here I got Dad to teach me how to make a TV".

They all fallowed to where Amber was gesturing to see a large near flat screen TV. "What the?! How did you make that?!?!?!?" Beth asked surprised,* "when we were in that Humatrix Guy's world i asked for the materials to build a make shift television set" she explained.

Amber then turned the thing on and it was playing "check it out, I made this thing to get tv across different universes". The screen shown a channel from Academy city as it was displaying ACSR Ben and Mikoto competing to see who can put out the most electricity.

"Oh one of the other Omni Ben's" Lucy exclaimed, "daddy?" Ezra tilted her head in confusion. Amber then changed the channel to switch to a fashion show channel and it displayed Ben, Sam, Alex and Clover walking on the runway. All wearing outfits based off of his aliens, "looks like we're hooked on the Dad network" Wendy commented. "Wow big brother is working it in that Alien X Jacket, it also some how works with those DiamondHead cuffs he's got."

"If the next one has Ben on it I'm gonna scream" Lucy said, when Amber changed the channel there wasn't a spot of Ben anywhere on it. "Oh whew looks like there's no Ben" the celestial mage sighed in relief.

The channel had actually been displaying a music fest of some sort and the host had just started speaking.

"Good evening Heatherfield!! Welcome to the fourteenth music festival, we have quite the night for you folks" the host said as five familiar looking girls walked on stage.

"Do they look familiar to you?" Amber asked.

"For our opener tonight, the five forces of nature who rocked our world on their debut, W.I.T.C.H. The Guardians of the Viel!!!!" The spot lights then shined on them to reveal Will, Irma, Taranee, Cornelia, and HayLin.

"Thank you Heatherfield, we hope you enjoy our performance, Cuz tonight's song is our first" Will announced grabbin her Microphone along with the other girls. While in the back Matt and Nigel grabbed the guitars. Caleb was on the drums and Eric was handling the safespecial effects.

"Get Ready for" Will said before and the other Guardians took deep breaths. "THE POWER OF FIVE!!!!"

The gang decided to watch, for the next hour they had a good time watching. Then came something that was... kinda surprising.

"Thank you, now I must regretfully say we are coming to our closing" the host said, everyone in the audience groaned in disappointment. "But don't worry, the last act we will have you amazed beyond belief" just as he said that another group came up on stage.

They were actually W.I.T.C.H., just in different outfits, "the band that shook our world, that rocked our universe, opened our eyes and doors, always leaving us wanting more!!!" Te spot lights then shined on the group.

Lucy's jaw then dropped "I knew they seemed familiar" Amber boasted, "Hey you're right sis" Wendy added. The lead singer was actually Ben.

"THE OMNI-ALL STARS!!!"

They all bowed, "Thank you, you know, recently we all, went through an extremely amazing event" Ben said. "Two actually, And since then our lives have been, taking a turn for the amazing. And for those we've met on that day, if you are watching us and can watch us" he then winks at the camera. "Hope you enjoy our performance, 1, 2, a 1 2 3 4!!!"

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Amber then changed the channel after the festival was done, which had allowed Lucy to calm down, "Okay... I'm just going to assume that Ben is going to appear in every channel and go with it" she said. "Big brother rocks no matter where he's at!!" Bethany exclaimed, "Got that right, I wish I had a cool big brother" Asuka added.

"Being a big sister is better" Amber said giggling as Wendy tickled Ezra's belly, "maybe I can ask for a baby sister?" Asuka said. "When you're older! when you're older!" Wendy, Amber and Lucy repeated.

They spent the rest of their time in Amber's secret hideout and after they went inside as it started to rain. "Who knew you're hideout was connected to the house" Lucy said, "yup I'm a genius" the other blonde gloated.

"Oh really? What about that time we were inside Humatrix's dimension and you tried to hit on that Yun kid and accidentally got You're underpants blown off?" Lucy asked smugly.

Amber blushed, "I thought we said we'd never speak of that!" She growled, "I'M SORRY!!" Lucy cried 'I forgot she's Erza's adopted daughter and disciple!! She's like a mini Erza!' The celestial mage cried inwardly.

"Big sister Amber please don't hurt auntie Lu-Lu" Ezra begged with puppy dog eyes. Amber's anger melted immediately "how can I say now to that face?" She cooed. For the past few days Lucy had a great time with the kids, it felt like nothing could bring her down. That was... until today...

"Hey we're back" Ben called "hey Dad" Amber called out, "Hey Ben, hi Erza... hey why do both of you look down?" Lucy asked. The two looked downcast, "we discovered something on the job we took" Erza said.

"What's wrong?" Lucy asked, "It's your father..." Ben said sorrowfully, "what's wrong with my dad?" She asked again. They took her into a more private room? Once they told her she started to cry.

The next day Ben, Erza, Amber, Wendy, Ezra, Ken, Kelly, Happy And Natsu went with Lucy to a cemetery. As it turns out Lucy's father had passed away during the seven years.

Before she left for Tenrou Island her father had lost most of his wealth and fortune... Lucy come's from a rich family... and during the seven years had managed to regain it. And because Lucy was the only living member or the Heartfilia family... she inherited what was left of her father's money.

While she was gone, Lucy's Dad had bought back her apartment and had sent her numerous presents. He wanted to make up for how he treated her as she was growing up.

"Auntie Lu-Lu" Ezra said to her God Mother, the blonde looked at the girl as she walked up to her and lightly grabbed her hand. "I'm sorry" she said, "it wasn't your fault Ezra... but thank you... you're a really sweet kid" she replied before putting a flower bouquet on her father's grave.

Ben and the others had let Lucy to release her emotions... all except Ezra who wanted to comfort her aunt. And Lucy gratefully thanked her for doing so.

Time skip

We now see Lucy waking up in her apartment, she looked around "thank you daddy" she muttered before getting up. For today the celestial mage and living member of the Heartfilia family planned to take the day off from the guild.

And just to be clear, she had already finished grieving; it's just she still wanted to keep her promise to Ben and Erza. "Hmm it feels weird being back in my old house" she commented, then she heard someone knocking on her door.

Lucy approached her door and opened it to reveal Ben and Erza along with their babies/little girl. "Hi Auntie Lu-Lu! You didn't forget about being our baby sitter right?" Ezra asked.

"How can I forget?" Lucy asked smiling at the young girl, "we'll be back later tonight, tomorrow at most" Ben said. "Got it" the celestial wizard replied, "also Lucy" Erza said, that caught her attention. "Just remember, even though you may have... lost you're family" she began "you're always welcomed into ours" she finished.

Lucy stated for a while, then smiled brightly "thanks you two, that means a lot" she said. "Oh and I'll be installing a security system into your apartment to keep a few certain nuisances out" Ben said, Lucy got the idea and greeted them goodbye.

Family truly isn't defined by name or blood, rather it's defined by the love and commitment between individuals who are close to you. Even if they're from your world or another.

*the reason why the stroller Ben made now has flight capability is because of Lucy. He knew that she'd be forced to take them to the guild which is currently flying in the sky above Magnolia. So since Lucy can't fly naturally Ben decided to allow the stroller to fly while carrying Lucy with it.
