" It's quite possible if we can draw him to a particular spot we can defeat him. " Y/n tilted her head at Ichiya, nearly snorting in her nauseated state. " Funny. " She choked out with an arm wrapped around Jellal's neck to keep herself up. Ichiya turned to the side. " Isn't that correct? " A woman who looked and smelt almost like Lucy stood ahead. " Captain, this way. " Hibiki appeared from an entryway, bruised and beaten from the ending battle. " Mh. my friends, everything will be explained on our way to the destination. "

" Indeed. That should give me ample time to get you up to speed. " The woman stepped forward, standing firm and serious in front of them. " Right, eh, who might you be? " Y/n blinked. " She's Lucy's descendant. " She sniffed. " They smell alike. " Erza looked from Y/n and back at the woman standing directly in front of them. Wendy and Everest sat back to back nearly laying on top of one another, both groaning and holding their stomachs in attempts to aid the nauseating pain in their stomachs. " Wendy. This ship was built with Dragon Slayers and their tendency for motion sickness in mind. Relax, calm yourself, and take a deep breath. " The woman's voice sounded familiar, it was soft-spoken. Wendy adjusted her body, sitting up and taking a deep breath, her eyes fluttering shut. " See. You're just fine. " Wendy's eyes flew open, adjusting her eyes on the blond woman. " No way. It's you! " The blond smiled softly. " You're our teacher, Anna! " Y/n's eyebrows furrowed, and she looked between Anna and Wendy.  " What you may not know is I'm an ancestor of a close friend of yours. The girl known as Lucy, we are part of the same family. "

" Doesn't matter who you may be, if you truly have a plan to defeat Acnalogia you must tell us. " Everest elbowed Y/n. " Don't be mean. " He whispered, sending her a side-eye. " I know you're quite eager but be patient, all things come in due time. It's good to see you, Wendy. You've grown. " Y/n lips parted, and she watched the way Wendy's eyes filled with fresh tears. " Miss Anna, I'm still so confused about everything. " Anna hugged Wendy close. " It's alright, I'm sorry about what happened to Grandeeney, Dimenshia, and the other dragons. But if it's any comfort, know their efforts, their sacrifices, were not in vain. " Y/n locked eyes with the blond, she felt a sense of familiarity but couldn't remember not one memory of this woman. " I was the one who 400 years ago, taught Wendy, Natsu, Y/n, and the others about language and civilization. I also passed through the eclipse alongside them to the current era, We came to the year 777 in pursuit of a singular purpose: defeating Acnalogia. " Y/n looked over at Everest who locked eyes with her as well. " 400 years ago we had no way to fight Acnalogia, things were Grim. So the dragons created a plan that would place their hopes in the future. They would enter dragon slayer's bodies and then travel forward in time, into this era. "

" I know Grandeeney told us about that. " 

" I heard that was due to magic power, that our current era is rich in it. " 

" That's true, magic power is quite prevalent. It's proven to be a wise choice. I opened the gateway but it was created by Zeref. He studied time and how to manipulate it. However, despite his extensive research, he was never able to make his dream of traveling to the past a reality. Still, I believe he thought salvation could be found in the future. We had a powerful wizard connect us to this era. Her name was Layla Heartfillia, I opened the entrance and she the exit. " Y/n sat with her back to the wall, her knee bent and her other leg laid out in front of her. " Lucy's mother was involved in this? " Erza raised her voice. " I came along in order to explain the situation to her, I would accompany the dragon slayers and raise them until they were ready. "

" You were supposed to raise us together? " Y/n looked at Everest once more who seemingly looked uncomfortable. " You were still children with so much left to learn, but things did not go as planned. An unforeseen accident flung you all through the gate in different directions. You, Y/n, Natsu, Gajeel, Sting, and Rouge. It took me five years to follow your leads, to track down all of you. And when I did, I saw that you had all found your own lives in this new era. Some even find their way together. I decided that I should wait to make contact, and not further disrupt the situation- " 

" What about Everest? " Everest jerked his head towards the female dragon slayer. He'd be lying if he wasn't curious about his own history, just how did he end up in the dragon realm? " Everest? Is that your name now? " Everest furrowed his eyebrows. " Now? " The woman cracked a small smile, her lips lifted the tiniest bit. " Your actual name is Phoenix, I found you in the middle of the forest soon after the eclipse. You were an orphan, I took care of you. " He furrowed his eyebrows again. " No, no that can't be true. " I was the one who sent you to the dragon realm, I was the one who introduced you to your mother, the mimic dragon. " Everest's eyes nearly widened in horror and disbelief. " We came up with a plan to teach you dragon slayer magic but an accident left your memory wiped, and you stayed in the dragon realm for your remaining years. We thought it would be best if I had no contact until the time was right, or until Wisp led Y/n to you herself. " Y/n's head flashed over to Everest, their lips parted in disbelief.
