(Y/n)'s POV

"Ladies and gentleman we have arrived at Magnolia." I looked out the window as the train stopped. I smiled and picked up Cynthia before running out of the train. Cynthia woke up due to my movements and started to fly. As soon as she realized where we were she smiled happily, but tiredly. 

I ran at top speeds with Cynthia, a smile on my face. I finally saw the guild hall in my sights and I smiled, noticing how different it was. Tears pricked at the sides of my eyes and I ran faster then my legs could carry me. Cherry blossoms fell around me, reminding me of the day. It was the day before the cherry blossom festival. Which means everyone that are not on jobs should be here  setting things up. I kept running and running till I stopped with the tip of my nose just touching the doors. I took a step back and breathed in. I looked at Cynthia and nodded, pushing the doors open. Everyone in the guild turned to me wondering who it was. Once they realized it was me their eyes widened.

"Hi guys, looks like I'm finally back."  I say with my smile growing. Mira ran up to me and gave me a hug that knocked the air out of me. I  I hugged laughed through it and hugged back. I was very close to Mira as a kid. We let go and I smiled. She smiled back with her tear stained face. I started laughing and everyone else started to talk to me. 

After talking with most of the guild, I couldn't help but notice a guy around my age with spiky black hair, red eyes and metal piercings on his face. I noticed him staring at me so I walked up to him. Cynthia saw me walk to him and she followed. As I got closer I started to smell a dragon. 

'Dragon slayer huh.' I thought as I got to him, my smile turning into a small grin. 

"Who are you?" He said rudely, his brows furrowing.

"My name is (Y/n) and this is Cynthia. What's your name?" I ask him kindly, making a good first impression on the new guild member. Though, he looked familiar. 

"Gajeel. Why are you here, I've never seen you around." He asked me not being as rude, but holding the cold tone. I showed him my (F/c) guild mark. 

"I've been a fairy tail wizard since I was a kid. By the way, are you a dragon slayer?" I ask him to see if my theory is correct. 

"I'm the iron dragon slayer, in my old guild I was called black steel Gajeel.". He told me starting to eat a piece of iron. 'I knew it, but does he have to eat now?' I ask myself and nod in response. Now I remember. He was part of a dark guild. What was it called again? 

"I'm fairy tail's multi dragon slayer, they call me the dragon's shadow." I tell him, smirking as his eyes widen slightly. So he has heard of me. 

"(Y/n)! Come on help us decorate for the cherry blossom festival!" I hear Mira calling me. 

"Okay Mira." I reply, turning to look at her over my shoulder. I start walking towards her and notice Cynthia shiver as she follows me. "You okay Cynthia?" I ask her with a confused tone. 

"Yeah. I just had a weird feeling." She tells me with a nervous expression.

Gajeel's POV 

I look glaring at that girl and Cynthia as they leave, one thing running through my mind.

'Cat. Why am I the only dragon slayer without a cat. I mean , I'm a dragon slayer to.'

{Sorry I had to write that. I had the idea and it was to funny for me to ignore. sorry}

(Y/n) POV

I'm almost done working on decorating the stage with balloons and ribbons, when Cynthia comes up to me. 

"(Y/n)... It's been all day and we haven't seen our old team." Cynthia tells me with a defeated tone. I look down sadly. 

"That's true, maybe their out on a mission." I tell her, keeping myself hopeful. I notice a wave of white hair and let out a gasp at the sudden presence of the older girl.

"Hiya (Y/n)! I couldn't help but overhear, and yes they went on a mission this morning. Anyways were finished decorating so you can leave and do whatever." Mira tells me with an innocent smile. I always knew that innocent smile wasn't what it seems. I'm scared to see more how Mira changed. Has she gone back to her old ways? Speaking of old ways, where was the blond who always seemed to be at the guild.

I decided to go home with Cynthia since it was pretty late. I was walking down the stone path in silence listening to the sound of my footsteps. I was also walking on the platform next to the water. I would occasionally look up to see where I was going. I looked out at the water to see people on a little canoe. 

"Hey (y/n), long time no see, be careful not to fall in the water." The man said to me. I smiled at him and waved as I continued on the path. I felt a slight weight on my head and noticed Cynthia's tail hanging in my peripheral vision.

It has been about ten more minutes until we finally got home. It was my own house I had for years after realizing how expensive rent in Magnolia was. I missed the place.

I kicked off my shoes and did my small routine before deciding to go to bed. I let a smile cross my face as I leaned back into my mattress. Cynthia had already gone to her bed, so I didn't have to worry about her. I closed my eyes and let myself lull into a comfortable sleep.
