Tsukune was slumped in a chair. He was shaking and his whole body felt sore and tired. His eyes were swollen from how much he had been crying. He had no plan to stop either. He felt as though his heart had been torn out and brutally beaten.

"Mr. Aono," The headmaster said walking into his office, "Long time no see. I'm sorry for your loses."

"Help me." Tsukune sobbed as he looked at the headmaster, "Please you must know a solution." He whispered in agony.

The headmaster sighed as he sat down on his chair in front of a desk, "Alas, Mr. Aono, I cannot bring back the dead."

Tsukune sobbed, "But you must know something! Anything, I don't care what it is or what will happen to me. I just need them back."

"Move on, Mr. Aono, that's all I can say or do." The headmaster replied.

Tsukune shook his head, "You always know something others don't. I need your help."

"What is it you think I can do? I have already said I cannot bring back the dead." The headmaster said.

Tsukune tried to calm down his crying, "I'm not asking you to bring them back from the dead."

The headmaster chuckled, "Then what are you asking me, Mr. Aono?"

"Don't play games with me!" Tsukune stood up in frustration, "You've played with my life as though I was a simple puppet! Once I discovered this I said nothing. I let it continue and I even went as far as playing along! Now I'm asking you to help me, not with my life, but with the life of others."

"You have not yet told me who you want to help." The headmaster sat back in his chair with a bemused smile.

Tsukune ran his hands through his hair in frustration and said in a fierce whisper, "Genie Morioka, Ruby Tojo, Kurumu Kurono, Yukari Sendo, Fang-Fang Huang (I think that's his name), Mizore Shirayuki, and" Tsukune paused trying to hold in a sob, "and Moka Akashyia."

"And if I do have a solution, what would you do? What if it cost you your life? What if it would change everything about what happened to you in this school?" The headmaster asked with his head cocked to the side with a smile.

Tsukune bit back a retort, "I'll repeat it again. I'll do anything."

"But can you do it alone?" the headmaster intertwined his fingers and set them on top of his desk, "You've always had help from someone else."

Tsukune shook his head, "Not this time. I can do it alone. I have training and the modification that Tohofuhai did to my body. Either way, it's not like any of my friends are left to help me."

"Oh, is Ms. Shuzen not considered a friend?" He asked his hood covering most his face.

Tsukune sighed sadly, "She's in a worse condition mentally than I am."

"Are you really willing to give everything up for a group of monsters?"

Tsukune smiled half heartedly, "Yes, I am."

"It will be difficult. I can't even guarantee you'll succeed." He said curious to see if he'd back down.

Tsukune spoke with no hesitation, "Whatever it is, I'll do it. No matter how difficult I will succeed."

He half smiled, but he wanted to see how far the boy would go, "I can send you back in time to save them from the attack of Fairytail, but it'll be very difficult."

"It's not far enough." Tsukune replied in a whisper.

"What?" He had heard, but he found Tsukune more and more amusing.

"Send me back in time before Ruby's parents were killed, before Moka's mother got sucked into Alucard, before Fairytail got too strong." If he was going to fix the problem, he wasn't going to half ass it.

Oh, how amusing this human boy was. In his depths of despair, where could have chosen to mope or perhaps just leave it all behind and try and forget about it, he choose to stay and fight once again. In deed he was the correct choice.

"They've always been strong, Mr. Aono." The headmaster said, "What you're asking could change more than just them dying. You're on a death mission yourself, Mr. Aono, if you think you can stop Fairytail."

Tsukune laughed without humor, "I saw my best friends die. I'm already dead on the inside, my life means nothing if they're not well and alive. I can save a lot more people if I take down Fairytail before it gets people like Kira and Akuha."

The headmaster laughed, "You've truly gone insane."

"Just please, help me." Tsukune said half pleading half frustrated at this game.

"Get some rest first. Tomorrow I'll have everything ready." The headmaster almost laughed at the flash of anger upon the young man's face.

Tsukune nodded, "I'll be here tomorrow. I still can't sleep though. I see their deaths."

He nodded understandingly, "I'll give you a relaxing potion in a tea."

"Thank you," Tsukune said in a low voice, "for everything, I really appreciate it."

"Good luck. If you do succeed, I'd like it if you came to visit me once it was all done." The headmaster stated.

Tsukune chuckled, "Of course, I am your lab rat, till the end."

"Mr. Aono," He said before Tsukune left, "I can't guarantee you'll get your old life back. You'll never be able to return. Your harem will be more than half your age. Ms. Akashyia will definitely be out of your reach. "

Tsukune shrugged, but replied sadly, "I'll be spending most of my time trying to stop Fairytail anyways. "

"Good night, Mr. Aono." The headmaster replied in somewhat admiration for the boy, "I'll see you in the morning."

He left the headmasters office. Tsukune would put his all into saving his friends, in making a better future for them, even if it costs his own. Even if in all of this, he'd lose some of his happiness for he'd probably never have them again. Tsukune stopped and leaned against the wall.

"I can't be selfish," He whispered tears threaten to fall again, "This is about them not me."

He held his chest as it ached. He looked up, not really looking at anything specifically.

"I will be happy because they will be." He closed his eyes tightly, tears cascading his cheeks, "I will be happy because I will see them live."

He slowly slid down to the floor. Trying to control his emotions.

I was inspired to write this when I was watching a sad movie and reading the fanfic Time Travel by randomstuff1900. I know, I know I should stop putting out new stories and finish my old ones but I can't help it; my mind must have these ideas typed down. I haven't decided who I should have Tsukune meet first though.
