Fairy Tail Characters belong to Hiro Mashima.

PART ONE: HOMECOMING

"Yarrow, will go walk with me?" Romeo asked one of the older Fairy Tail members. She had light cream colored hair pulled back into a high ponytail that went to her waist that contrasted with her dark tan skin. She smiled and turned to face Romeo.

"I am about to go train with Shark, maybe Raki or Arsack and Briska will take you today," Her cream colored eyes were shining with nothing but love for her nakama.

"They always make me feel like I am not worth the time," Romeo started to pout and crossed his arms. "And they are supposed to protect me from the other guild members. The only ones that are able to protect me is you, Shark, and my dad."

"I'm sorry, Shorty, I would, but I need to get a job before the guys from Twilight Ogre come to get the money we owe them, you should understand that," She leaned back, trying to have him understand that the reason that Fairy Tail has only been able to stay afloat for this long after the main members vanished because everyone goes and gets freelance jobs wherever they can.

"I understand. When will you be back, will you go with me then?" He looked hopeful.

"Yeah, Shorty, I will. If anything interesting happens, I'll be at the normal place that we train," Yarrow gets up from the table, walks to the door and puts on her thigh-high black boots over her dark jeans.

"Nothing interesting ever happens," Romeo pouts and spots Briska in the room and gloomily sulks towards her.

"Romeo, I thought you made a promise to Yarrow that if there was anything interesting, you would tell her!" Makao asked his son after he spotted him in at a table in the guild.

"The losers from Blue Pegasus came and said that there was a possibility that the island is there still, not that everyone is still alive. I don't think that she would like being hit on by the Hibiki, Ren and Eve that much," Romeo was reading a book, sounding annoyed that his dad was bothering him while reading.

"Don't you think that she would want to go see for herself. You know, Shark would have loved to go search the island too," He was pleading for some sort of reaction from his son.

"It's been 7 years, I don't think they would care," Romeo turned a page just as the door to the guild slammed open. The collectors for Twilight Ogre were back again today.

Something inside of Romeo snapped as he heard that their master wouldn't allow for a month leeway for the payment. "We don't have the money that you want!"

Makao tried to stop his son knowing full well that if every one of the members of Fairy Tail were to fight the collectors, the Twilight Ogres would overpower them. More importantly to Makao, Romeo would defiantly get hurt.

"I'm going to fight! If things keep going like this, it will be Fairy Tail's disgrace!" Romeo tried to communicate that he was serious by making a flame in his hand, maybe the fire would make intimidate them. Maybe it would remind them of a former Fairy Tail member and make them run away with their tails between their legs.

Teebo blew out the flame like it was a candle. Romeo and everyone else disregards what the Ogre says as he draws his weapon and takes aim for the youngest member of the guild, knowing that there was nothing they could do to prevent the attack.

All of a sudden, Teebo goes flying across the room. Makao first looks to see if it was something that his son did. He then he looks towards the door, all of the Ogres are on the floor in an instant.

Standing in the doorway was all the smiles of the members that vanished seven years ago. Natsu and the others sweep into the room, happy to be back with the full extent of their guild. After an explanation of what happened on the island and how seven years had passed and Fairy Tail has fallen, Natsu saw Romeo.

All it took to break Romeo's seven years of emotionless was a single sentence from the fire mage, "Romeo, you're all grown up now!" He burst out in tears, he had a wave of emotions rush over him.

The old guild was back, and there was so much happiness. Just like before. After a while one question lingered on all the minds of the old guild. How was Fairy Tail still around when there is no jobs for them.

Romeo was the one to jump up and tell everyone. "Everyone took jobs but mostly Yarrow and Shark! They have grown so much since you guys vanished. The two of them are known all around the country!" Romeo was in tears. "We should go get them!"

Everyone was shocked to hear this. Yarrow and Shark, they were two little kids when they left, not capable of anything but getting into trouble. In other words, they were perfect Fairy Tail members.

"They aren't here? Why didn't they come to the island?" Erza asked looking around the guild. He always looked up to her and she never realized how much she liked the little guy. He was never fighting with anyone like Natsu and Gray. He and the only other member of the guild that was in his age group had their verbal fights, but that was about it.

"It was my fault, Yarrow told me where they were going, but I didn't think that you would be alive and okay," Romeo said. "They are in a field near Natsu and Happy's place. That is where they always train"

"You are so awesome!" A little boy with pale skin and dark navy hair looked up at Natsu, Erza, Gray and Gajeel. He was new to adopt the guild from the streets, he doesn't even have his emblem yet. He was barely even old enough to be in the guild. He was only about eleven years old but had big hopes of becoming a great mage. His light blue eyes lusting to be like the great mages in front of him.

While Shark was running towards the group, Happy was trying to get the attention of Carla with a fish, and Lluvia was running up to greet Gray. The fish went flying and landed right where Lluvia foot hit the floor. She went flying towards the group and her elbow made contact with the little boys mouth.

Lluvia stood up quickly, offering words of apology to the boy.

Everyone looked at all of the teeth that now splayed across the floor. Makarov slowly makes his way to the boy and helps him to his feet. The boy looks up and gives Lluvia a toothy grin.

A look of confusion flickered across Erza's face as she looked at the toothy smile of the boy and the floor that had teeth still splayed over it.

"This little boy has an amazing regeneration ability, but please, don't decorate the guild with teeth," Makarov walks away from the little boy and the group. That is how he got his name, Shark.

A little girl about a year or so younger than Shark rushes over to look at him, she can heal bones in herself and in other people. Shark and Yarrow were the only two their age, so they looked after each other, if only a little. Their friendly gesture was quickly replaced by bickering.

Natsu joined in their little argument, not being able to resist the fight, no matter how childish it was.

Natsu remembers the first time he noticed the little girl. Natsu and Gray got into a fight where they both broke a few bones and the little girl named Yarrow timidly approaches them with a reddened face. She touches the spot where they had a broken part of the bone and it healed almost instantly.

This is one of the shortest chapters that I have written. Sorry about that. Next one soon.
