-Magnolia-
-Fairy Tail Guild-
Seven years.
Seven years have passed since the destruction of Tenrou Island that killed Fairy Tail finest members and Fairy Tail guild master, Makarov. The once proud and powerful guild in Magnolia, Fairy Tail have been reduced into a second rate guild, replaced by Twilight Orge. That did not mean that the remaining Fairy Tail members stay quiet about it but with the lack of members and mission, not to mention the pressure that they got from Twilight Orge. Their hope to regain their former glory was dream within dream.
However, unknown to them, one man was going to change that and bring hope once again in Fairy Tail guild. That one man was Lelouch, the warlock. In this past seven years, Lelouch have traveled around Earth Land to see how much has changed since he sealed himself in Tenrou Island. Now was the time for him to fulfill his promise to Mavis, informing the remaining Fairy Tail guild members that Tenrou Island was in fact still exist and the other Fairy Tail members on the island were still alive.
Lelouch was just arrived to saw how Twilight Orge treated Fairy Tail. He could only sigh in disappointment, this was worse than what he thought before. Maybe he should inform them immediately than waited for seven years before inform them. Well, Mavis told him to wait for seven years so it was not his fault.
After the Twilight Orge trashed and harassed the Fairy Tail members, he decided to enter the guild now.

The remaining members of Fairy Tail guild and Macao Conbolt the fourth Guild Master of Fairy Tail could only stared the ground with shame and self-loathing. They sure that their friend and the previous guild master, even Mavis Vermilion the founder of Fairy Tail were disappointed at them right now. It just a matter of time before Fairy Tail would perish and they could not do anything to stop it. However, when they heard someone entered the guild, they immediately became wary, thinking the Twilight Orge have not satisfied and decided to harass them further.
Instead the Twilight Orge members they expected, the one that entered was a man wearing a tattered black cloak that hide his body and face. The man did not speak a word and stared around the guild before he walked to the corner that have a table and chairs that have not destroyed by the Twilight Orge members and sat on it while he crossed his leg.
Macao was the first to regained senses and walked to the stranger.
"Welcome sir, I apologize for the mess," Macao said sheepishly, rubbing the back of his head, "Can I help you with something?"
The stranger looked up to Macao, the shadow from his hood made hide his face, leaving his mouth and two violet eyes to seen by anyone else.
"You are?" The man asked Macao, his voice was cold and emotionless.
Macao flinched a little, "Macao Conbolt the current Guild Master of Fairy Tail. So, what can I help you sir? Do you have a job for us?"
"My name is Lelouch" Lelouch introduced himself the pointed the chair across him, "Please have a seat"
Macao complied Lelouch request and sat, "So, what do you need from us sir?"
"It had been seven years isn't?" Lelouch said, ignoring Macao question as he observed all the remaining members of Fairy Tail, "Since Tenrou Island incident"
The rest of members flinched and Macao forced a smile to Lelouch, "Sir?"
"The once powerful guild in Magnolia turned into this" Lelouch smirked in stratification when he saw the look of outrage from the members of Fairy Tail guild. "Pathetic"
"Sir!" Macao said, his tone was hard and his magic flared, "If you come to insult us, then I must ask you to leave"
Lelouch smirk turned into a full blow smile, "It seem you still have your pride as Fairy Tail"
Macao blinked once; he could not help to wonder if the man before him was testing him.
"Though I seem at lose here" Lelouch said feigned confusion, "If you still have your pride, why you accept how Twilight Orge treated you?"
"You don't know anything about our situation sir!" Macao hissed harshly. This man didn't have the right to told them that.
"I don't think so" Lelouch said with a knowing smile, "I know more than you that for sure"
"Get out! We don't have time to hear you nonsense!" Doroi, one of the Fair Tail members yelled angrily.
"Yeah, we won't just stay quiet listening to your insult!" Jet, one of the Fair Tail members added.
The atmosphere inside the guild became tense, it only a matter of time before the Fairy Tail members decided to attack Lelouch to vent their frustration.
"Stop!" Macao ordered while narrowed his eyes at Lelouch, "What are you trying to do Lelouch?"
The pleasantry was gone.
"I bring a message," Lelouch said simply, "Or perhaps a news to be accurate"
"And what it is?" Macao said harshly, he did not have the patient to play a game with Lelouch after what the Twilight Orge done to them.
"Tenrou Island is still exist and the other Fairy Tail members still alive" Lelouch said straight to the point.
That immediately silent the Fairy Tail members and their face showed shock, disbelief, and confusion before settled into an angry expression.
"Are you playing with us?" Macao asked, trying to restrain himself from punching Lelouch face.
"I speak only the truth because I was there" Lelouch stated with confident.
That shocked Macao, a witness, "Wh….."
"Now, I have fulfilled my promise" Lelouch said while geass symbol appeared on his eyes, "I take my leave"
With that Lelouch teleported away, leaving behind the confused Fairy Tail members.
It was until later when the Blue Pegasus guild came and informed them the same thing that they started to believe Lelouch. However, they also questioned how could Lelouch knew about this and who he was.

Right now, in Fairy Tail guild, there was a party to celebrate the return of the missing Fairy Tail members. The once depressed guild has regained back its cheerfulness. Everyone were partying and informing what happened this past seven years to the members that only back from Tenrou Island after the returned members Fairy Tail deal with the Twilight Orge. This was the happiest time in this past seven years.
However, in the corner of the room, Macao and Makarov were discussing something important. Makarov have informed Macao that the reason why they survived the breath attack from Acnologia was that Fairy Sphere protected them. Then Macao told Makarov about the strange man Lelouch who told them about the fact Makarov and other still alive and Lelouch was in Tenrou Island when that happened.
"So, master, you also don't have any clue about this Lelouch?" Macao asked, looking at Makarov as he drank a beer in one gulp.
"You don't have to call me master because I`m not the master anymore" Makarov said while he put back the empty beer glass on the table, "And I don't know him"
"Are you sure? Maybe he is one of the Grimoire Heart?" Macao asked back, making sure. Makarov have told him about Grimoire Heart attack on Tenrou Island. Therefore, he thought that maybe Lelouch was one of them.
"No, I`m sure he is not Grimoire Heart member" Makarov said seriously, "Teleportation magic is one of the hardest magic to learn as its closely related with Space manipulation. So he must be a high ranking mage and I`m sure if he is Grimoire Heart member, Hades would use him in the attack"
Macao relented at that.
"Well, enough of that and lets party!" Makarov said while he patted Macao back.

Lucy Heartfilia the Celestial Spirit Mage of the Fairy Tail Guild was not in good mood. She has finally learned that she lost seven years of her live. At first, it was fun that they finally returned from Tenrou Island and back to Magnolia. They had party to celebrate their return, Wendy got some dragon slayer magic technique that her sky dragon left behind, they learned that Porlyusica was from Edolas and the counter part of wendy sky dragon. Gildarts appointed to Guild master but he ran away and made Makarov back as the guild master, and more importantly she didn't have to pay the rent for this past seven years because someone have paid it which she thought was her father doing. However, when she decided to meet her father, she faced the fact that her father actually has died just a month ago before she came back. She visited her father grave and it finally hit her, that in her absent, there was many things have happened in her absent.
Lucy stared the fountain in front of her. Natsu have tried to cheer her up but she did not felt like it. Therefore, Natsu begrudgingly left her alone to think by herself and come to the term that her father has died. She did not even realize that someone sat beside her.
"Are you sad?"
Lucy turned her head and saw a man with tattered black cloak that hide his face and body sat next to her.
"I`m sorry?"
"I said, Are you sad?" The man asked once again, not looking at her at all.
"Um, I`m sorry but who are you?" Lucy asked the man, she didn't knew this man and with the hood hiding his face, that's not helping her at all.
"My name Lelouch" Lelouch introduced himself, "I`m your father acquaintance, Lucy Heartfilia"
Lucy breath hitched, "You know my father?"
"Let's just said that you father have helped me in many ways" Lelouch explained which was true. Lucy father have helped him to open a bank account and managing his money. Without Lucy father, Lelouch would have a hard time to exchange the jewels that he had to money.
"I see" Lucy nodded sadly, "So, what do you need?"
"Right now, I`m trying to fulfill your father last wish" Lelouch said, making Lucy attention focused on him.
"Last wish?" Luch said in hope, "Please tell me!"
"Follow me"Lelouch said simply as he stood and walked away.
"H..hey wait!" Lucy yelled, running after Lelouch.
They walked in silent side by side. Lucy noticed that Lelouch was going to her place.
"Ara, Lelouch are you back?" The landlady greeted happily in front of the house that she rented.
Lelouch just nodded and entered the building.
"Do you know him Landlady?" Lucy asked curiously.
"Huh?" The landlady looked confused, "You don't know him?"
Now, Lucy was confused, "No, he said that he my father friend"
"Oh, I thought he was you boyfriend or something"
Lucy blushed, "Why you think that landlady?"
"Because he is the one that paid you rent"
Lucy eyes widen in shock before she ran after Lelouch. She found him standing in front of her room.
"You are late" Lelouch said simply then he noticed that Lucy want to ask him something, "Open, we will talk inside"
Lucy was feeling uncomfortable to let an unknown man to enter her room but he knew something about her father so she relented. She opened the door and entered the room followed by Lelouch.
"So, you are the one that paid my rent? Why?" Lucy asked but Lelouch ignored her and took out a small box that she recognized as dimension box to store many things, something that you could easily buy at any magic shop.
"Take this" Lelouch said while he shoved the box to Lucy.
"This" Lucy said while studying the box.
"Open it"
Lucy looked unsurely but she opened the box and from inside the box emerge seven boxes that warped with decoration with seven letters.
"That's your father gift for your birthday, Lucy" Lelouch stated before turned his back, "My job finished"
"Wait!" Lucy yelled but Lelouch already gone. She then picked one of the letters that dated this year. She opened it and read it when she finished read it tears falling down her cheek. The letter from her father explained many things from how father met Lelouch and Lelouch helped her father then the request that her father asked Lelouch. She could not help to smile even though tears falling down her cheek, a great burden have been lifted from her shoulder.

-Undisclosed Location-
Jellal, Ultear and Meredy sat together on the ground circling the campfire they made while enjoying their food. They were discussing about Fairy Tail guild and the Grand Magic Games.
"Its good we decided to meet them" Ultear sighed, thinking about what would happen if they not helped them.
"Yeah, instead training they spend their time playing" Meredy added. It was only because of Ultear that the members of Fairy Tail guild could participate in the game. If not the members of Fairy Tail guild would without doubt slaughtered by the other guild at their current level.
Jellal smiled because that was Fairy Tail way.
"Ah, by the way" Meredy averted her eyes to Jellal, "Why you told Erza that you have fiancée?"
"You heard that!" Jellal exclaimed as he sure that no one heard that.
"Isnt it better to be honest with yourself" Ultear said kindly to Jellal, "Or did you decided to continue punishing yourself?
Jellal smiled sadly, "Punishment is the rule for crime sorciere isn't it?"
"Still blaming yourself, Jellal?" A male voice asked.
Immediately they turned their head to the source. There, not far from them was a man with black tattered cloak. Though the hood hides the man face, they knew who the man was.
"Lelouch" Jellal greeted.
"Ah, Lelouch!" Meredy greeted happily, "Where have you been?"
"Long times no see Lelouch" Ultear said while smiling at Lelouch.
Lelouch nodded and walked to them and sat between Ultear and Meredy, "Yes, it have been a long time"
"Is there something you need from us Lelouch?" Jellal asked. Lelouch was after all, his savior. Lelouch, Ultear and Meredy were the one that break him out of prison. Not only that, sometimes Lelouch helped them to destroy dark guild before Lelouch disappear.
"Yes, but that's for later" Lelouch said while looking at Jellal, "Will you not regret it?"
"Huh?" Jellal stared Lelouch in confusion, "What do you mean?"
"Erza" Lelouch said simply.
Jellal nodded in understanding, "Yes, I won't regret it. After all, someone like me cannot fall in love with people who walk in the light"
Jellal paused and stared the campfire, "I only hope that Erza can be happy forever"
"You will regret it" Lelouch said simply.
"What do you mean?" Jellal asked, as he was shocked at how sure Lelouch was.
Lelouch for a moment lost in his memories, an image of a certain red headed girl appear in his mind, "Because I have been in the same situation as yours"
Jellal widen his eyes slightly, for Lelouch to spoke his past was a rare thing because as long as Jellal knew Lelouch, Lelouch almost never spoke about it.
"Don't do it" Lelouch said solemnly, "Or you will forever regret it like me"
The mood suddenly became solemn.
"Hey Lelouch, what you want to ask us anyway?" Meredy asked suddenly, trying to lighten the mood while Ultear looking at Lelouch worriedly.
The first time they met Lelouch was when they tried to escape from Tenrou Island by boat. Lelouch suddenly apparead out of thin air and asked them to help him to go to the mainland. They, at first wary at him but Lelouch assured them that he was not a threat. However, as time passed by, Lelouch proved trustworthy by helping them numerous times from dangerous situation and gained their trust.
Lelouch took out two scrolls and threw it to Ultear and Meredy, which they immediately opened and read it.
"This" Meredy seem at lost.
"A letter of pardon from Magic Council" Uktear finished.
They could not believe it, they were not a fugitive anymore.
"How?" Ultear asked but Lelouch just smiled knowingly at her.
"A secret" Lelouch said before looking at Jellal, "I`m sorry but I can only get for Ultear and Meredy. Your case is more special than them"
Jellal nodded, accepting that because he knew that what he has done was something that couldn't easily forgive, "No, problem. I know my sin is heavier than them"
Lelouch nodded back at Jellal before looking at Meredy and then Ultear, "It's about the Grand Magic Games"
"The Grand Magic Games?" Ultear repeated, "Is something matter with the games?"
"Do you plan to join it?" Meredy asked jokingly.
Lelouch just let out a dark smirk at this.
Please Review
A/N: Well, I decided to continue this story but I will not update too often and I apologize for this short chapter. I tried to write it longer but I think it will ruin the story. Next chapter will go to the grand magic games, now I will ask your opinion , should Lelouch enter this tournament with his own guild that he made by himself (Black knight) or join fairy tail?
