Seth (POV)
Later that same morning, we went to Cait Shelter and the guild master there wanted to thank us for saving him and his people's lives.
Gm- Fairy Tail, Blue Pegasus, Lamia Scale, not mention Wendy and Carla. I commend your efforts in not only defeating the Oracion Seis but saving our village from Nirvana's wrath. Speaking as a representative of our regional guild league, I Robo offer you our deepest gratitude. Thank you. Nabura. We are in your debt.
Natsu- Hey, we deserve a victory party!
Grey- A party sounds great.
Seth- Grey your clothes. Lyon you too. This isn't magic mike.
Indigo: (Sigh) Why? Just why Seth?
Seth: What? It was a fitting joke. I was just telling it how I see it.
Indigo: (smacks face) Let's just get back to the story.
Ichiya- So, is the Cait Shelter guild up to getting down?
Him and the other Trimen start doing this horrible dance. Unfortunately Natsu, Grey, Lucy, and happy join in.
Seth- News flash guys. They ain't doing it!
This brings them to a halt.
Robo- I'm truly sorry. I have neglected to tell you all about the Nirvet people. Please accept my sincere apologies.
Happy- Well it's not like it's gonna stop us from partying.
Natsu- But we'll listen to whatever you have to say right?
Happy- Aye sir.
Wendy- It's alright master. You don't have to tell us if you don't want to.
Robo- It is important. I wish that everyone please listen closely to the tale I'm about to tell. First let me clear the air about something. The truth is, we are not descendent of the Nirvets. Indeed we are the Nirvets themselves and many years ago, 400 to be exact, Nirvana was created fashioned by my hands.
Lyon- By you?!
Seth- Well Damn.
Lucy- I don't believe it.
Happy- Four hundred years ago?
Mandy- Oh my lord.
Robo- I thought if my dream of Nirvana was made a reality, I could end the ghastly wars tearing the world apart. I would do so by reversing the morality of those who's minds were set on the destruction of others. We made our home there and we took great joy in what we accomplished through peace. We were a beacon of light in what was once a dark shadowy world. However, despite our best intentions, we could not change the fact that for every action there's an equal and opposite reaction. Nirvana has brought light to once was a terrible darkness not by chasing it away but absorbing it so to speak. The world yearns for balance and order. The light serves no purpose without darkness and vice versa. Light is born from darkness and darkness is born from light. The two are forever intertwined.
Grey- Yeah. That's exactly how it played out for us. All the world's evil taken from those whose hearts were once consumed by it was transferred to the peace loving Nirvets.
Wendy- It was?
Robo- It was a nightmare. Engulfed in rage and hatred, we slaughtered each other until no one was left standing. That's not quite true for I am the only survivor. Then again, in this particular situation, the word survivor is a little misleading. In truth my body ceased to function many years ago. What you see now is just a projection of the man I once was. As punishment for my sins, I this powerless spirit have stood as a watchman over my creation for four hundred years. Keeping my weary eyes open for the one who could at last destroy Nirvana and confine it to the pages of history. And now, my post can be vacated for that person has been found.
Wendy- No. Why didn't you tell me?
Slowly the Cait Shelter people begin disappearing one by one.
Wendy- What's happening?! Don't go!
Carla- You can't just leave us!
Seth- The Hell you thinking chief?! You can't leave them all alone! Wendy has nowhere to go! You're the only one she's got!
Wendy- (crying) Please don't go!
Robo- I have deceived you Wendy. For that I am sorry. All your fellow guild members were specters. They were nothing but illusions.
Natsu- Are you kidding me?
Robo went on to speak again but I couldn't help but think of that day.
Flashback to the night before July 7, 777
Little Seth (POV)
I was running around in this small clearing in the forest we call home. I didn't want to go to bed yet. Mom was getting annoyed by my antics.

Serena- Sit down child!
Seth- (scared) Yes ma'am.
Serena- Come hear Seth.
I walk over to her and I sit down next to her head as she wraps her body around us.
Serena- Seth?
Seth- Yes Mom?
Serena- You know I love you right?
Seth- Yeah I know.
Serena- And you know I'll always be here for you no matter what.
Seth- I know mom.
Serena- That's a good boy. Now rest up.
She started humming a tune to lure me to sleep and with her body expanded and contracting with her breathing, it worked and I was off to dreamland.
The next day morning.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

I woke up and I was lying on the ground.
Seth- Good morning mom.
No answer.
Seth- Mom?
Still no answer.
I sit up and look all around. She's nowhere.
Seth- Mom?!!
I get up and run all around the nearby areas looking for her. I keep running until I trip over something and scrape my knee. I just curl up into a ball and cry.
Seth- (crying) Mom.....hic.....why.......did you.....hic......leave me?
Present day
Seth (POV)
I snap out of that memory only to see Robo is gone and Wendy on her knees crying her eyes out.
Seth *mind*- No. I refuse for her to go through this thing twice.
I approach her and squat down to her level. She sees me and hugs as she cries into my chest.
Seth- (tear escapes eye) Don't you worry little sis. You can come with us to fairy tail. There, you'll have a new family and I'll take care of you. I promise you'll never be alone again.
Indigo: That's the end of this one. Hopefully you guys enjoyed it. Later indigo fam. Peace.
