|Khaleesi's POV|

It has been 3 months since everyone left to go train. They are expected to back by today. Fin and I enjoyed our time off relaxing. Something that was very rare to have; given all the work the Council has been making me do. It felt nice to sleep in my own bed and eat a nice home cooked meal. Fin and I walked into the guild to see a crowd surrounding Gramps.

"Alright brats listen up! It's time to announce who will be on the team competing for the Grand Magic Games. Natsu, Erza, Gray, Lucy, and Wendy." "I feel like Laxus, Gajeel, or Khaleesi should be in my place instead." Wendy said to Lucy who was agreeing. "Like hell. Absolutely not!" I said over to Wendy and Lucy.

Gramps under his breath whispered that he agreed but unfortunately since they haven't come back yet he must make due. Then called me stubborn. Erza then concluded that overall teamwork was why they were picked. The group then left to pack. I sat at the bar drinking and playing with Asuka.

After about 3 hours I was called into the office. I walked in to see Laxus, Gajeel, Mira, Juvia, and a Mystogan imposter. I leaned against the door. "What the hell are you roping me into Gramps?" "Now that everyone is here I want you all to participate in the games as Fairy Tail Team B." "Nope, nope, and nope." I said shaking my head. "I agree with Khaleesi. Why do we need two teams shouldn't one be enough?" "I just don't like that we are team B."
"This will increase our chances of winning. How about I sweeten the deal if you guys win the other team will have to do whatever you say for twenty-four hours." "Whatever we say?" The group questioned out. Gramps nodded in confirmation. "Jelall will be disguised as Mystogan so he can get close to the games. Khaleesi, you damn stubborn child will act as a reserve member for the team and I will not take no for an answer." He said smirking mischievously. "Tch! And you call me stubborn. Whatever fine!" I said grunting in annoyance. "No one is to know about this until after it is announced. Pack and head to Crocus." Everyone nodded and left. "Jelall meet me in the usual spot." I said getting his attention. He nodded and left. I left the office and grabbed Finley.

We walked to the forest a bit of ways away from the guild. I stopped walking once I came across Jelall. I leaned against a tree looking a him. "I'm sorry I haven't been able to talk to you. I've been busy on a job for the Council. Anyway I have some information that might be beneficial for you and Crime Sorciere. I will try to get more information but till then here's all I was able to get." I said handing him an envelope. "Anyway I guess I have to pack now so I will see ya around the games. Give the girls my greetings!" He nodded and I walked away giving a lazy wave behind my back.

I sighed heavily looking at the clouds rolling by in the sky. I always feel at ease in nature. It was a blissful reminder that even the smallest things hold beauty. Every single thing holds a crucial role from the microscopic organisms in the dirt to the predators hunting their prey. They all hold an importance in this world no matter their size. If one stops functioning then it all crumbles apart. I envy it all. The minute the life was born they had a sense of belonging. Something I didnt necessarily understand back then, but no less longed for.

A simple reminder that no matter how small you may seem in such a vast world, that you hold significance even bigger than you think. If I knew that when I was little would that have made a difference? Possibly but, then I probably would have never met my family. I might have never met Finley, Gramps, Laxus, Natsu, Gray, Erza, and the list could go on. It's been fourteen years, huh? I smiled as the rays of the sun peaked through the trees. My surroundings glowing as if everything was simply created with a stroke of a brush in a meticulous and thought out way.

We went back and packed to head for Crocus. Team B decided to meet at the train station. Everyone was getting ready to board the train. Just the thought of having to go on the train made me sick. "The weather sure is nice out. A-Actually I think I'm just going to walk there. Yeah, walking. That sounds better." I stuttered out starting to turn pale. As I was about to back away my body collided with a hard chest. I turned around to see Laxus. "Khaleesi quite stalling and get your ass in there." "Uhh nah. I think I'm just going to walk." The more I look at the train the more I got sick.
I was unfortunately plagued with the same weakness as Natsu. I never actually went on transportation till I came to Fairy Tail, but I relished in the fact that I wasn't the only one. I guess that's one other thing Natsu and I have in common. A bond of comradery that grew into a kinship of siblings the minute we met.
"A-Actually I think I'm just going to-to lie down." I struggled sitting down on the ground. "Oh no ya don't!" Laxus said standing behind me. "Bye guys have a safe trip." I dizzily said waving them off. "Seriously Khaleesi every damn time? We ain't even moving yet and you're already sick." "You're just as bad as Salamander." Gajeel grunted. "Aye! It's a struggle everytime!" "Juvia would have thought that Khaleesi would've gotten used to it by now." Juvia tilted her head curious. Mira just smiled sweat dropping at the scene. "Well her motion sickness is pretty bad. It might even be worse than Natsu's. She has had it since she was five and I don't know when Natsu started experiencing his."
The train whistle blew as a warning to all passengers that its last call. A large hand grasped my ankle tightly. "NOOO! STOP I DONT WANT TO GO! NOOO!" My hands clawed at the ground. My nails trying to grasp on to anything. "Stop being such a baby, Khaleesi." My body continued to be dragged up onto the train. I was then thrown onto the floor in the middle of two rows of bench seats. Juvia, Lilly, and Gajeel on one side and Laxus, Mira, and Finley.
The train then stared moving signaling the beginning of my hell that would last for hours. "U-Ugh k-kill m-me." I managed to say without puking. I could hardly talk without getting sick so I stayed quiet groaning on the floor.
