Fairy Tail Next Generation: Thrown Back

Chapter 4 - The Cavalry Arrives

"Gale get off!" The boy underneath her mutters. Gale Redfox climbs off of him and reveals a boy with short navy hair. He wears a grey shirt and a black sleeveless jacket. It's Storm Fullbuster!

"Gale! Storm!" I shout. I run to my friends and hug them tight.

"Nashi?!" They exclaimed. They hug me back and it really feels like home. Gale is the first to let go, followed by Storm.

"Nashi your dad is so worried about you!" Gale exclaims. Her Amber eyes glisten from tears she had already shed recently.

"We were all worried about you." Storm blushes. I blush and hug them again.

"Wait what are you two doing here?" I ask. Just then, another figure fell from the ceiling. He powerfully lands on another picnic table, cracking it in half. The boy has a deep red/pink colored hair and wears a black tank top with cargo pants. Under his left eye is his birth mark. It looks like an upside down bow and arrow that points down his cheek. His hazel eyes meet mine and sweat forms on my brow as fear settles in. Storm and Gale go stiff at the sight of the masculine Reiki Fernandez.

"Nashi." He says, climbing off of the broken table. He walks over to me and stares at me. He's at least a foot and a half taller than me and two years older.

"H-Hey Reiki." I stutter, praying that he won't hurt me. He stares me down and before I know what is happening he pulls me into a hug.

"I'm glad you're safe." He whispers. I hug him back and soon, Gale and Storm join us. It feels so good to have my team with me. Someone clears their throat behind us and we all let go and face them.

Reiki, Gale, and Storm stare in bewilderment at the audience that has formed around us. Storm and Gale's mouths are practically on the floor while Reiki wears a serious expression.

"Oh yeah," I breathe. "I forgot to tell you guys..."

My teammates stare at the sight of our guild family this young. I watch as their eyes fall on every guild member from Wendy Marvel to Elfman Strauss. Watching their reactions is a sight to behold.

"What's going on?" Someone in the crowd asks. I watch as Natsu pushes his way through the crowd until he is at the front. He stops at the sight of the new teens.

My team stares at him in bewilderment. Then, as if on cue, Erza pushes her way to the front with Natsu. Her eyes land on Reiki who's mouth is hanging open at the sight of his young mother.

"Move it!" Someone shouts. We all turn to see Gajeel making his way to the front. Levy follows close behind him, they both stare at Gale. Gale grows pale and looks like she's gonna pass out.

Next up was Storm. I search the crowd until I find Gray and Juvia. I grab Storm and face him in their direction. His breath falls short at the sight.

Every single one of my teammates stares in wonder at their parents. My eyes finally land on Natsu and Lucy. They stare at me as if seeing me for the first time. I hang my head in shame.

"You four!" Makarov booms. "My office, now." We all stare at our feet. Eventually, we follow our guild master into his office. As if he knew we were coming, four chairs now sat in front of his desk. We each took a seat. Kali sat on the floor at my feet.

"Who are you? Don't leave out any details." He says coldly.

"My name is Gale Redfox, my parents are Gajeel and Levy Redfox. I use stone manipulation magic."

"My name is Storm Fullbuster, I am the oldest son of Juvia and Gray Fullbuster. I am an ice demon slayer."

"I am Reiki Fernandez, son of Erza and Jellal Fernandez. I can use destruction magic."

"My name is Nashi Dragneel, my parents are Lucy and Natsu Dragneel. I am the sun dragon Slayer. We are from the year X816 and this... was an accident. I was arrogant and read the spell that brought me here. My team was just coming to bring me home." I said respectfully. I knew when to be funny and when to be serious. Antareus taught me that.

Master says nothing. He glares at all of us. I can only imagine what he is planning to do to us.

"You all know the consequences of time travel. Yet you three still came for your teammate."

"Yes Master." Reiki states.

"Well technically, we didn't even know that this was a time travel spell." Gale chimes in.

Master takes this into consideration. He stands from his chair and walks over to us.

"If you are to stay here, you are not to tell anyone who you are. You understand me?"

"Yes sir." We all say in unison.

"Get out." He shoos us out of his office.

When we open the door, we're met by the eyes of every single guild member on the floor below us. I swallow hard, hoping that none of them heard us.

"What do we do?" Storm whispers. There is a long pause between the four of us. None of us have the guts to answer.

"We move forward." Reiki states.
