A/N: Alright, so glad that chapter is gone... ugh

Now. Here is where everything will be different. It never happened in the anime, but the idea was given to me, and viola.

"This is cute!" Lucy said as she looked at herself in the mirror, wearing a new set of clothes that was provided by Wendy's guild.

"Oh? Mine is cuter, actually." Sherry shot back, her competitive mood kicking in.

"Lucy's is the best!" Erza shouted in Sherry's face, holding herself back, trying not to punch her in the face for trying to attack Lucy.

"Lucy's is ugly! Mine is way cuter!" Sherry shouted back, getting in Erza's face, glaring at her.

Lucy sighed and walked next to Wendy, ignoring the two arguing girls. "These are cute clothes. Thank you."

"You're welcome. We produce a lot of fabrics here."

"Are these styles passed down from the Nrivits?" Lucy asked, trying to ignore the verbal fight between Erza and Sherry, also to learn more about Wendy's guild.

"I think so..." Wendy replied hesitantly.

"Wendy...when did Cait Shelter join the guild league?" Lucy asked, not recalling a Cait Shelter before the mission had started.

"Huh?"

Erza and Sherry paused, hearing Lucy's question, which made them question it as well.

"I had never heard of Cait Shelter before as well." Sherry agreed.

"Oh, really? Wow, I guess our guild is obscure." Wendy nervously smiled.

"That's fine and all, but everyone's waiting for us, you know." Carla spoke up, interrupting their talk, reminding them that the others are outside.

"We'll be out there. Are you ready, Lucy?" Erza looked at Lucy for answers.

Lucy nodded. "Yep. Let's go!"

The girls, plus Carla walked outside and joined the group of their members and Wendy's guild.

The master of Cait Shelter was the first to speak up. "Fairy Tail, Blue Pegasus, Lamia Scale, and Wendy and Carla. You have done well in defeating the Oracion Seis and stopping nirvana. On behalf of the regional guild league, I, Roubaul, offer my gratitude. Thank you. Nabura thank you."

"You're welcome, Master Roubaul!" Ichiya shouted, dancing like a drunk ballerina.

Lucy sweatdropped as she watched him dance like a fool, the Trimen also danced like fools.

"Why had I not foreseen this?" Lucy murmured to Erza.

Erza chuckled. "Don't hold expectations for Blue Pegasus."

Then Gray, Natsu, and Happy decided to dance along with the Trimen and Ichiya. Couple minutes later, they all froze due to the awkward silence between Cait Shelter and the members. Nobody moved, everybody was tensed. Rabaul, most of all, looked the guiltiest of them all.

The silence was soon broken by Rabaul, "My sincerest apologies for not telling you about the Nirvits."

Another awkward silence followed after that.

"You're going to kill the mood because of that?" Happy commented.

"It's not even that big of a deal to us. Right?" Natsu frowned.

"Aye..."

Wendy turned to her master, "It doesn't bother me either, Master."

Rabaul, however was not convinced. "Everyone. Please listen well to what I have to say."

Everyone gave him their undivided attention to the old master of Cait Shelter, wondering what was so important to why he was a party pooper and so tensed.

"First off, we aren't the descendants of the Nirvits. We are the Nirvits. Nirvana was created 400 hundred years ago by me."

There were murmurs of doubts coming from some members as they continued to listen to the old man.

"400 hundred years ago, I made Nirvana, a magical creation for reversing morality, in an attempt to end the warring that covered the world. Nirvana became our homeland and ushered in a new age as a symbol of peace. However, tremendous power always comes with an opposite of equal strength. Nirvana had changed darkness into light, but in doing so, became steeped in the darkness it took. It had to maintain balance. Turning people to the side of light wasn't without restrictions. Light is born from darkness and darkness is always born from light. The darkness taken from people became affixed to us Nirvits."

Wendy trembled from what she was hearing. Shocked expression could be seen on some of the members as they listened to the story of the Nirvits.

"It was hell." Rabail continued. "We slaughtered each other into extinction. I am the only and one survivor. No, perhaps that isn't quite the right phrase to use now. My body ceased to be long ago. I'm now something akin to a projection. To atone for these sins of mine, I, as a powerless spirit, have kept watched over this place for 400 years waiting for one capable of destroying nirvana in my place to appear. And now...that role had finally been fulfilled."

Something doesn't add up...if this old man is the man who created nirvana...if he was the only survivor, then about the rest of the members of Cait Shelter? Lucy though suspiciously as she kept listening to the creator of nirvana.

Then one by one, the members of Cait Shelter began to disappear into thin air. Lucy could only watched from afar with wide eyes, watching as Wendy and Carla cried as they disappeared, tears streaming down Wendy's cheeks.

"I'm sorry for having fooled you. All the guild members are illusions I created." Rabaul said as members of Cait Shelter continued to disappear.

"Say what?!"

"Illusions with personalities?!"

"Such powerful magic!"

The only thing that Lucy could think of was what Wendy was feeling right now. Living almost your whole life, only to find that you been living with illusions, people that is not real, people that are merely just an illusion.

It was not a betrayal of sorts. It was not a lie...well it was, but it was created to make Wendy feel happy and not lonely. Lucy understood that much, but...

The spirit of the one that created nirvana created an illusion guild, created illusions of people with personality, all for Wendy. Lucy would smile at the thought, all the efforts the spirit had done for Wendy, but she had a feeling something else would happen.

"I don't want to hear this!" Wendy cried as she covered her ears, tears falling down her cheeks.

Carla cried silently next to Wendy, remaining unvocal, too speechless to even utter a word on the situation.

"Wendy...Carla, you've no longer need for fabricated friends. You have real friends now." Rabaul said.

Everybody was silent, watching with sad eyes as they listened to the cries of Wendy and her little cat friend.

Rabaul smiled with warmth as he begun to shimmer, making Wendy cry harder.

"You're futures had just begun." Rabaul said, disappearing into golden glitters of light.

"Master!" Wendy cried, running forward to where Rabaul stood.

"Thank you very much, all of you. I leave Wendy and Carla in your hands now." Those were the last words of the Nirvit, a spirit that had remained for more than 400 years to watch over nirvana, a spirit that had cared for Wendy and Carla for 7 years to this day, a spirit with sins now lay to rest with a smile.

The symbol of Cait Shelter on Wendy's arm disappeared as well, proof of an illusionary guild that had somehow joined the league of guilds.

She fell to the ground, crying with no shame of the people behind her. She didn't care. She was lonely now. The life she had led for 7 years disappeared. She has nowhere to go now.

Lucy stood there with sad eyes. Pity is what she felt. She...more or less knows what she's feeling. When she had lost her mother...it was almost similar to the scene before her. She wanted to soothe Wendy...help her...and tell her that she's not alone.

Taking a step forward, Lucy knelt next to Wendy and hugged her. "You're not alone. You're never alone."

Erza smiled as she walked next to Lucy and Wendy and knelt beside them. "Lucy's right. You have friends now."

Wendy stopped crying and looked at Lucy and Erza with puffy eyes, tears still falling.

"Come with us, to Fairy Tail!" Erza smiled.

"Fairy Tail?"

Lucy nodded. "Our guild. You're no longer alone. We're friends, so we're inviting you to join our guild."

Wendy blinked, looking at Lucy and Wendy, then at the rest of the members, then back at Lucy and Erza. "C-Can I really?"

"There's no reason to be saying no." Lucy smiled.

Not another second, Wendy jumped and hugged Lucy tightly. "Thank you." She whispered.

"Now it's all settled, we should get ready to move." Erza ordered as she stood back up.

...

The Fairy Tail members set sail on a ship, journeying back to their town, back to their guild.

Lucy stood next to Erza, intertwining their hands with a smile. She watched Natsu running around like a child, spouting nonsense about loving the breeze or the like. She heard a grumble from Erza, mumbling how Natsu had yet to grow up.

"He better not use any fire magic." Erza growled, glaring at the pink haired boy that's running back and forth.

Not another second, Natsu had fire coming out of his mouth as he ran in circles.

Lucy had to restrain Erza from strangling Natsu. "Erza...please calm down."

"The Troia is about to wear off, you know!" Wendy spoke up as she watched Natsu sprouting fire.

Couple moments later, Natsu fell to the ground, accompanied by a familiar green face. "Cast it...again..." Natsu mumbled, flailing around weakly.

Erza had a sword in her hand, aimed to where Natsu was laying. Lucy had her arms wrapped around Erza as an attempt to stop her from hurting to flame boy...but to no avail.

"Erza! Calm down! Natsu's sick now. He can't do anything. Let him suffer from the sickness!"

Erza paused, still glaring at the oblivious dragon slayer on the ground. She turned to look at Lucy with a sigh. "Fine. Natsu better consider himself lucky." Erza said as she held Lucy in her arms, loving the feeling of having her in her arms.

"Um...I know that I said I would come...but don't I need a place to stay?" Wendy asked, talking to anyone that would answer.

Lucy pulled away to look at Wendy. "There's couple of apartment complexes in town. There's also Fairy Hills behind the guild, but it's a bit...expensive."

Wendy looked down, as if in deep thought.

"But, if you need a place to stay, you can stay with us until you find a place." Lucy offered.

Wendy looked up with a wide smile. "Really!?"

Lucy nodded. She turned to Erza, "That will be fine, will it?"

"Of course. Until you have a place of your own, you can stay with us." Erza smiled.

Wendy ran and hugged Lucy and Erza. "Thank you!"

"No. I will not allow that!" Carla shouted, glaring at Erza with a scowl.

Silence was present for a moment before Wendy turned to Carla with a questioning look. "Why would you say that?"

Carla scoffed. "I don't mind Lucy. But I don't trust the brute over there." Carla said, pointing in Erza's direction.

"Eh?" Erza blinked in confusion.

"What's wrong with Erza?" Lucy was in defensive mode.

Carla wanted to say it, but she couldn't, not with Wendy present. "I don't think Erza's responsible enough." That was a lie, and Carla knew it, but she couldn't say the truth.

"I'm not sure why you hate me so much, but I'm sure we can...compromise." Erza said, kneeling to Carla's level. "I'm sure we can work something out."

Carla resigned. "Fine. But, if you do anything, I will...I will..." Carla trailed off, quite defeated on not knowing what to say.

Wendy picked up Carla and hugged her. "I'm sure they will be great people. I know we can trust them."

Carla sighed as she was being hugged. "Hopefully."

"You look like a family like that." Gray commented out loud as he watched from the sidelines.

"Family?" Lucy said, looking at Gray who was smirking, then at Wendy who was smiling and hugging her cat friend, then turned to Erza with wide eyes. "Erza! I have an idea!"

Erza perked up, eager to listen to Lucy. "What is it?"

"We can make a family with Wendy as our adoptive daughter!"

Erza blinked, and then blinked again. "Don't we need to be married first?"

Lucy was silent for a moment and spoke up, "I heard of people of having children, even when not married. So I think this should be fine."

Erza stared at Lucy to see if she was joking or not. Apparently not, not with the smile Lucy had. Personally, Erza didn't mind having Wendy live with her, and she will not mind having Wendy as their adoptive daughter. It would be the closest thing to being a family...a full-fledged family.

Erza knew the past of Lucy's, a broken childhood before joining Fairy Tail. She understood the wanting of having a real family. What right does Erza have to deny that desire?

With a smile, Erza grabs Lucy's hands in hers. "A family will sound perfect. But we need to talk to Wendy first."

Lucy smiled before turning to Wendy and grabbing her attention.

"Wendy. We want to talk to you."

Wendy turned to a serious looking Lucy and Erza looking back at her. "Yes?"

"You already know about us...right?"

"Huh? You mean you two being...together?" Wendy blushed just by thinking about, especially thinking when they had kissing in the forest.

"Yes. So, we were thinking about...your situation and came to a conclusion. The decision is up to you to decide."

"O-Ok..." Wendy was becoming anxious to what they were about to say.

"I-I...well...Erza and I were thinking if we can adopt you." Lucy stuttered.

"Adopt?"

"Adopt you to be our daughter." Erza cut in.

Wendy blinked. "Adopt...daughter...You mean..."

"Want to be a family?" Lucy queried with a smile.

"Really? Do you really want to be...?"

"That's up to you." Erza said.

"I-I...I love to!" Wendy cried, jumping into Lucy's arms with elated happiness.

"Guess we have a daughter now." Lucy smiled, hugging Wendy back.

"Carla?" Erza looked at the white cat with questioning look.

Carla scoffed. "Wendy can do what she wants. And I'll go where she'll go."

Erza stood, watching the exchange between Lucy and Wendy, talking about clothes and the arrangements of things.

The only thing that she was not looking forward to was Juvia. She can only imagine what she'll do when they come back with a daughter...Well, this'll be interesting.

...

Introducing Wendy to the guild as a new member was fun and interesting, the sprouting about having another dragon slayer and the like.

As Erza feared, Juvia was glaring at her, muttering things of live rival and said something of murder...something like that.

Master Makarov was more than willing to accept Wendy into the guild.

"Lucy-sama, my dear! Juvia was so, so worried that her eyes are pouring rain. Juvia wished that she went instead of Erza!" Juvia yelled, trying to get to Lucy's side, but Erza was in the way.

"Ah! You wish! Lucy was perfectly safe with me by her side!" Erza shouted, head-butting the water mage.

"Safe? I heard from someone that you allowed her to get poisoned!" Juvia countered.

"She's safe now, isn't she!? So back off!" Erza recounted, rage building up.

Lucy sighed, opting to find a safe area to lounge about. She watched as Wendy was talking to some of the members, getting to know them.

"Lu-chan"

Lucy turned and was almost tackled to the ground. Levy had her in a tight embrace.

"Levy! It's good it see you." Lucy hugged back.

"So...I heard you have a daughter now. I'm surprised on how fast you and Erza had been moving." Levy smirked.

Blush immediately covered Lucy's face. "N-No...I mean...we...adopted Wendy cause...you know...I mean..."

Levy laughed. "I'm kidding. Looks like you're a family now, with a daughter and all."

Lucy smiled. Having a family now seems...perfect. Now, she was determined to not make the same mistakes as her father. A careless man's careful daughter is what I would like to say. I won't mess up.

"But I would be careful." Levy spoke again, "Juvia will be even more...jealous."

Lucy paused before her head hit the table as a realization hit her. Levy was right. Juvia will be more intense with....her...whatever it was. Now there will be more fights between her and Erza. Wonder if the guild will still be standing after a few weeks.
