We ended our journey with six guilds for allies: Blue Pegasus, Sabertooth, Lamia Scale, Twilight Ogre (it took forever for them to be convinced,) Mermaid Heel, and Quatro Cerberus (after meeting them, I wasn't sure if we actually needed them.)

They all said that they needed time to prepare. And within a few days, we had all contacted one another and agreed to meet at Blue Pegasus to finish our job and save our friends.

Lisanna, Sapphire, and I were packing up our things from the Fairy Tail guild hall, which was now horribly damaged after the accident. We changed into new day clothes; I wore a sleeveless grey turtleneck, high-waisted black jeans, and snug black combat boots. We said goodbye to our building and left.

All of the exceeds were distributed among all of the guilds. Even Christell decided on staying with Quatro Cerberus to lessen our travel load. I couldn't wait to see all of them again, to know they were all safe.

All I had at that point were Lisanna and Sapphire. Before we left for the train station, I made a stop to Lucy's apartment. It seemed to have dulled to an extent, and dust carried from the sun beams in the windows. I sat on her bed, still smelling her vanilla scent deep in the sheets and remembering how I felt so cared for in my small time with her.

"We're gonna get you back, Lucy," I whispered in the air, "All of you... We will get you guys back." I got up before the tears could come. I would never forget how they all just took me in with open arms. How, even if they were skeptical of my existence, they made me feel loved and protected.

I ran out of Lucy's apartment before I could wander on those thoughts for too long. I could hear her crazy landlady yelling at me to pay her rent or find her so she could pay it. I rolled my eyes and made it to the train station. Lisanna held Sapphire securely in her arms. They smiled at me excitedly as I approached them. I smiled back—we were all too excited to solve this thing.

Lisanna handed Sapphire to me, and together, the three of us boarded the train for Clover Town.

The ride was, again, excruciating.

"I wish Wendy was here. She could help you with this." Lisanna said as we exited the train. She had been strangely quiet during the train ride, and I surmised she was starting to get anxious for her siblings and guild mates. I could relate, but I quirked an eyebrow at her sudden statement.

"What do you mean?" I asked, hearing Sapphire noisily slurp on her to-go-cup's straw. It was honestly the first time Lisanna spoke about the guild or it's members outside of planning to save them both.

"She has a type of healing magic," She explained and I rose my eyebrows, "I'm sure she could cure your motion sickness while you travel."

I hummed. I was excited to meet the Wendy girl. I didn't know her, but I already felt connected to her. I was sure it was due to her youth compared to everyone else in the guild.

"She sounds like an interesting girl," Sapphire said enthusiastically, and I laughed in agreement.

Clover Town was as beautiful as the first time I'd seen it. The smell was just as strange, but Sapphire and I looked about in complete bliss. She raved about how she couldn't wait to be a part of Fairy Tail, how she couldn't wait to officially meet everyone. I told her they would love her just as I did, and Lisanna looked on in what seemed to be adoration of us. I smiled at her, seeing the guild not too far away from us then.

It was setting in. We were going to save everyone.

Finally, we were at Blue Pegasus. We walked to the guild hall and showed the security guards our guild marks. They swiftly stepped aside, inviting us in.
