A/N: here's chapter 12 for ya guys. This takes place after the one year time skip. 

At the Sabertooth Guild Hall

Inside of the Sabertooth guild hall members were talking, drinking and messing around with each other, almost like Fairy Tail but without the fights, the almost peaceful scene was shattered when two females started an argument."What makes you so special then huh"? A long, purple haired mages asked the other mage."Well I'm obviously more talented than you Ultear, he's all mine". The other mage replied with a wide smirk."Incorrect Minerva in both accounts, we are the same when I comes to magical strength but I have an edge over you because I've actually slept with Daniel on multiple occasions". Ultear replied with an even wider smirk than Minerva's. Minerva seethed at this as the rest of the guild looked in fear at what the two mages might do if this gets out of control. Just then the guild doors were swung open revealing a short pink haired male, a long haired blonde female, a long blue haired female, a blue cat and a white cat.

"Ah Lucy and Natsu welcome to Sabertooth". A short silver haired mage said as she greeted her friends. "Hello Yukino how are you". Lucy replied. The two celestial spirit mages chatted about what had happened with their lives over the past year. Just then an slightly overweight blonde haired male walked over to the two and greeted Lucy. "Yo". The blonde haired male said. "Oh Master Sting I didn't see you there". Yukino said startled by Stings presence."That's Sting what happened to him". Lucy said shocked at how fat Sting became over the course of a year. Suddenly Sting went from his overweight figure to his lean and muscular figure. "There that's much better". Yukino said as beside her stood a tanned female with dark hair that is tied in an ox horn style. The woman's attire resembles that of a belly dancer, it consists of a frilled and stripped bikini top along with a patterned loincloth. "Thank you Libra". Yukino said as the now named Libra nodded her head and disappeared. 

Natsu and Wendy looked around until they spotted a familiar looking pair of faces. "Is that Ultear"? Natsu asked Wendy."Yeah she, Meredy and Daniel joined Sabertooth after Fairy Tail disbanded". Wendy replied to Natsu still upset about Fairy Tail disbanding. While Minerva and Ultear were still arguing Meredy looked over at Wendy and Natsu and shouted "Hey Wendy, Natsu over here"! Waving her hand beckoning them over, they walked up and greeted their friends but Natsu was still wary and angry at Minerva for what she did to Lucy at the Grand Magic Games last year. 

Just as Meredy had caught Natsu and Wendy up on what had happened while they were in Sabertooth, Minerva stopped fighting with Ultear and walked over to Natsu, with a look of sadness and regret on her face she said "Natsu I must apologise for my actions last year both at the Grand Magic Games as well as the incident with Tartarus. I used too much force to try a prove that Sabertooth was the strongest guild and I also caused pain to your friends and family when I was a part of Tartarus briefly. Please can you forgive me"? Minerva almost begged Natsu to forgive her as this had been eating her up inside for the past year. 

Natsu looked stunned that Minerva, a strong, powerful and confident mage was asking for him for forgiveness, his view on Minvera had changed slightly. "Minerva I forgive you but I will not forget what you have done". Natsu replied as Minerva looked shocked but smiled nonetheless "Thank you Natsu". She said adding that she must go and apologies to Lucy as well as she left Natsu turned to Ultear and asked her "So where's Daniel then I wanna fight him cause I've gotten a lot stronger and I think I can beat him this time". Natsu said with fire almost burning in his eyes. "Well Daniel isn't here at the moment he's on a mission but he should be back soon, but I'll warn you Natsu Daniel is much stronger than he was last time you met". Ultear said. 

"Yeah Daniel was training with us and at the Elders Recess for a year, plus he's been on quite a few mission in the past year. I don't think you'll beat him this time Natsu". Meredy continued Ultear's sentence. 

The doors to the guild swung open violently to reveal a man wearing a black hoodie with odd coloured markings on the hoodie. He sniffed the air and smiled as he recognised some of the smells. "Well now isn't this familiar". The boomed with a loud deep voice. "Ah Daniel you're back, how was the mission"? Yukino asked."Not too bad, it's finished with minamal damage to me and the surroundings". Daniel said rubbing the back of his head as Yukino smiled and replied "That's good also we have some guests that you may recognise". Daniel smiled as he replied "Yeah I recognised them, I smelt them when I came in to the guild". 

"Welcome back Daniel". Minerva said as she walked over to him and gave him a hug, this shocked Wendy, Natsu, Happy, Carla and Lucy but what shocked them even more is when Daniel hugged Minerva back. "It's good to be back Minerva how have you"? Daniel asked. "I have been well, just doing the usual training to make sure I stay in shape and get stronger". Minerva replied."Good wouldn't want you doing soft would we". Daniel laughed slightly as  he grabbed Minerva's hand and they walked to where Natsu, Wendy, Happy, Ultear, Carla, and Meredy were.

"Hey Ultear my love how are you". Daniel said as he kissed Ultear causing Minerva to pout slightly. Ultear saw Minerva's pout and a small smirk crept up on her face and replied "I've been good but you know our bed is not the same with you not there". Wendy began to blush heavily where as Natsu was completely clueless. Natsu snapped out of his confusion and asked Daniel. "I thought you and Ultear were dating so why are you and Minerva holding hands and acting like a couple as well"? He asked. "Well Natsu and Wendy let me tell you a tale that starts 10 months ago..." Y/N began
