**[00:10] ---**
Release him?
**[00:12] ---**
You're letting him go free?
**[00:15] ---**
Yes.
**[00:17] ---**
Hi!
**[00:19] ---**
Long time no see, everyone!
**[00:20] ---**
Aye!
**[01:55] ---**
This brings back memories.
**[01:56] ---**
How've you guys been?
**[01:57] ---**
Good grief.
**[01:59] ---**
"Brings back memories"?
**[02:01] ---**
You ruined the Grand Magic Games
**[02:04] ---**
and nearly destroyed Domus Flau.
**[02:06] ---**
Sorry 'bout that!
I didn't expect that to happen.
**[02:09] ---**
Silence!
**[02:11] ---**
What's your problem?
**[02:13] ---**
It's been a long time.
**[02:14] ---**
You've been a great help
so many times, Natsu-san.
**[02:18] ---**
I'm glad to see you're looking well.
**[02:20] ---**
I was a great help?
**[02:21] ---**
Like with Eclipse and the
eclipsed Celestial Spirits...
**[02:26] ---**
Now I remember! I think...
**[02:29] ---**
You think?
**[02:31] ---**
You never change.
**[02:33] ---**
Your Majesty, Princess,
**[02:36] ---**
it will set a bad example if he
isn't given a suitable punishment.
**[02:39] ---**
Darton.
**[02:41] ---**
Thanks to Natsu-san and all the other
members of Fairy Tail, Crocus...
**[02:46] ---**
No...
**[02:47] ---**
...the kingdom of Fiore
has survived numerous crises.
**[02:51] ---**
Have you forgotten?
**[02:55] ---**
The first time we've seen you in over a year,
**[02:58] ---**
and you cause this brouhaha...
**[03:01] ---**
So what shall I do?
**[03:03] ---**
He's a riot, isn't he?
**[03:05] ---**
Set him free-kabo!
**[03:08] ---**
Kabo!
**[03:10] ---**
What are you going to do next?
**[03:13] ---**
I've been trainin' my ass off this past year,
**[03:16] ---**
so we'd better check in with the guild.
**[03:18] ---**
Aye!
**[03:19] ---**
The guild...
**[03:22] ---**
Oh, really?
***SIGN***
**[03:29] ---**
Don't come back!
**[03:31] ---**
Aye!
**[03:33] ---**
Lucy!
**[03:34] ---**
I'm surprised you got off scot-free.
**[03:37] ---**
Lucy.
**[03:38] ---**
You went to see the Games alone?
**[03:40] ---**
Why didn't Fairy Tail participate?
**[03:44] ---**
Sir!
**[03:46] ---**
You guys!
**[03:47] ---**
Let us be your underlings!
**[03:49] ---**
Underlings?
**[03:51] ---**
If we stick with you, never mind
the stupid Grand Magic Games!
**[03:54] ---**
We'll probably be able to make a mint!
**[03:57] ---**
What do you mean?
**[03:58] ---**
You guys are shameless.
**[04:01] ---**
I don't really get it...
**[04:03] ---**
...but it sounds shady.
**[04:06] ---**
We're sorry!
**[04:08] ---**
Sheesh...
**[04:10] ---**
What's this?
**[04:12] ---**
I'm starvin'!
**[04:13] ---**
We haven't eaten in days.
**[04:16] ---**
Then let's get something to eat.
**[04:17] ---**
It's been a long time, so I'm treating!
**[04:20] ---**
You're a goddess!
**[04:22] ---**
Goddess Lucy!
**[04:23] ---**
Cut it out! That's embarrassing!
**[04:28] ---**
Delish!
**[04:29] ---**
I can't remember
the last time I ate like this!
**[04:31] ---**
Don't hold back! Fill up! Fill up!
**[04:33] ---**
Aye!
**[04:34] ---**
"Don't hold back?"
**[04:37] ---**
I'm paying, remember...
**[04:39] ---**
So, where have you been and what have
you been doing this past year?
**[04:42] ---**
Training.
**[04:43] ---**
This and that, here and there.
**[04:45] ---**
We went to Tenroujima, too!
**[04:48] ---**
We visited the Founder's grave.
**[04:49] ---**
Huh... And then what?
**[04:51] ---**
Then...
**[04:52] ---**
Oh, that's right!
**[04:54] ---**
Listen to this, Lucy.
**[04:56] ---**
Natsu is terrible!
**[04:58] ---**
What are you talkin' about?!
**[05:00] ---**
He's the one who said we were
going on a training journey,
**[05:03] ---**
but he didn't have any kind of plan!
**[05:05] ---**
It figures...
**[05:06] ---**
Is that right?
**[05:07] ---**
That's right!
**[05:08] ---**
Remember how hard it was,
wandering aimlessly from place to place?
**[05:11] ---**
That's what you do on a training journey.
**[05:14] ---**
See? Terrible, right?
**[05:16] ---**
Although that's just like Natsu...
**[05:19] ---**
And speaking of terrible, oh boy!
**[05:21] ---**
Now what?
**[05:22] ---**
Listen to this, Lucy!
**[05:24] ---**
I am listening!
**[05:26] ---**
Natsu also...
**[05:34] ---**
Natsu!
**[05:39] ---**
Happy, did you catch any fish?
**[05:43] ---**
Natsu, what's wrong?
**[05:45] ---**
What's wrong? I'm training.
**[05:49] ---**
Are you okay?
**[05:51] ---**
You look kind of weird.
**[05:53] ---**
Baloney.
**[05:55] ---**
Which reminds me,
where's the fish? Our dinner?
**[05:58] ---**
A-Actually, I caught a fish
bigger than yours,
**[06:02] ---**
but it got stolen!
**[06:04] ---**
Stolen? By whom?
**[06:07] ---**
Ill-mannered wizards...
**[06:10] ---**
Um, about 40 of them!
**[06:12] ---**
40?
**[06:14] ---**
Huh?
**[06:16] ---**
Natsu, did you eat those mushrooms?
**[06:19] ---**
Yeah. But I grilled 'em first.
**[06:24] ---**
Right, but they're obviously inedible...
**[06:26] ---**
It'll be all right.
**[06:29] ---**
I'll get that fish back.
**[06:32] ---**
I have a bad feeling about this.
**[06:35] ---**
This ain't done cookin' yet.
**[06:36] ---**
Fish...
**[06:37] ---**
Them?
**[06:38] ---**
They're already grilling it!
**[06:40] ---**
That's a little bitty fish,
and there're only four of 'em.
**[06:43] ---**
Yeah, but I thought exaggerating
would make for a better visual.
**[06:47] ---**
Huh?
**[06:49] ---**
No, wait! There are more!
I see about 40 of 'em!
**[06:52] ---**
That bad feeling is getting stronger...
**[06:58] ---**
Who the hell are you?
**[06:59] ---**
I'm Natsu.
**[07:02] ---**
Are you scumbags the fish thieves?
**[07:06] ---**
We're no fish thieves.
We're a wizard guild.
**[07:09] ---**
This is our fish, so scram!
**[07:13] ---**
I'm the one who caught it! That's my fish!
**[07:16] ---**
Mount Altana here is under our control.
**[07:20] ---**
The fish, the edible wild plants,
everything, are our property.
**[07:24] ---**
And there you have it.
**[07:26] ---**
If you want the fish,
try and take it from us.
**[07:29] ---**
Take it from you?
**[07:31] ---**
You bastards beat the crap outta Happy.
**[07:34] ---**
That's totally blown out of proportion.
**[07:36] ---**
What's this guy talking about?
**[07:37] ---**
I won't forgive anyone who makes Happy cry!
**[07:41] ---**
Natsu...
**[07:43] ---**
Fire! He's a wizard?!
**[07:45] ---**
Master!
**[07:46] ---**
If he's a wizard,
we don't need to hold back!
**[07:48] ---**
Cream him!
**[07:50] ---**
Yeah!
**[07:51] ---**
Iron Make!
**[07:53] ---**
Needle Hammer!
**[08:03] ---**
Gimme that fish back...
**[08:06] ---**
This guy...
**[08:07] ---**
What firepower!
**[08:09] ---**
Douse his flames with water! Do it!
**[08:11] ---**
Right!
**[08:12] ---**
Solid Script!
**[08:15] ---**
Blizzard!
**[08:18] ---**
What?
**[08:20] ---**
Natsu!
**[08:24] ---**
That ain't gonna work!
**[08:26] ---**
We're in trouble, Master!
He's no ordinary wizard!
**[08:29] ---**
I've seen him before.
**[08:32] ---**
Hair the color of cherry blossoms,
**[08:34] ---**
a scale-like scarf...
**[08:36] ---**
Wait! Don't tell me...
**[08:38] ---**
But that guild is...
**[08:40] ---**
Roar of the Fire Dragon!
**[08:52] ---**
Excuse me, Natsu...
**[08:54] ---**
You're really going overboard.
**[08:56] ---**
Leave this to me.
**[08:59] ---**
Go!
**[09:00] ---**
I'll get that fish back.
**[09:01] ---**
Don't push!
**[09:02] ---**
You morons have to protect me!
**[09:04] ---**
You're the master!
**[09:06] ---**
All over a free meal!
**[09:06] ---**
This is just ugly to watch...
**[09:09] ---**
What the hell is with you guys?
**[09:13] ---**
Bastards...
**[09:15] ---**
And you call yourselves a wizard guild?!
**[09:19] ---**
My ass!
**[09:25] ---**
Natsu! Wait!
**[09:45] ---**
Cruel...
**[09:46] ---**
What do you think, Happy?
**[09:49] ---**
I got the fish back.
**[09:52] ---**
Natsu, you're an idiot...
**[09:54] ---**
Right? Isn't that awful?
**[09:56] ---**
I don't know why we went to get it back.
**[10:01] ---**
Same old Natsu!
**[10:03] ---**
So you guys were behind
the melting of Mount Altana, huh?
**[10:08] ---**
I read about it in the newspaper.
**[10:10] ---**
Well... I don't remember it at all.
**[10:13] ---**
Well, now that I've eaten,
I'm goin' to the can.
**[10:17] ---**
Wait a second, Natsu!
**[10:18] ---**
I'm not done telling the story!
**[10:19] ---**
Gotta go, gotta go.
**[10:21] ---**
You guys really haven't changed.
**[10:24] ---**
I'm relieved for some reason.
**[10:26] ---**
Yeah. But you know,
**[10:28] ---**
after he beat them up,
**[10:31] ---**
Natsu said something in his sleep.
**[10:33] ---**
What did he say?
**[10:35] ---**
That he'd never forgive people
who didn't value their friends.
**[10:40] ---**
Friends...
**[10:42] ---**
I agree with him,
**[10:44] ---**
but I just wish he'd been more careful
not to char me and the fish.
**[10:50] ---**
Lucy, is something wrong?
**[10:53] ---**
No.
**[10:57] ---**
Lucy...?
**[11:00] ---**
Cool! Cool!
**[11:03] ---**
"The Grand Magic Games! This Year's
Number One Isn't a Guild, But Fire Boy!"
**[11:08] ---**
Now that's a cool headline,
if I do say so myself!
**[11:12] ---**
Where did Lucy go?
**[11:14] ---**
I don't know. She's not back yet?
**[11:16] ---**
Nope. Jeez, where did she wander off to
when we've got this huge scoop?
**[11:22] ---**
That's okay.
**[11:23] ---**
It's okay?
**[11:31] ---**
Natsu...
**[11:35] ---**
Hey, Lucy...
**[11:38] ---**
Did something happen?
**[11:43] ---**
What is it?
**[11:45] ---**
You seem down.
**[11:47] ---**
Yeah! You've been acting weird all day, Lucy.
**[11:52] ---**
You don't know, do you?
**[11:57] ---**
Fairy Tail...
**[11:59] ---**
...disbanded.
**[12:16] ---**
Fairy Tail... disbanded?
**[12:19] ---**
Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?
**[12:22] ---**
It happened the day after you two left.
**[12:25] ---**
Why did it disband?
**[12:33] ---**
Actually, I have no idea, either...
**[12:36] ---**
Where's Gramps?
**[12:39] ---**
I'm gonna kick his ass!
**[12:41] ---**
No. I'll rip out all his hair!
**[12:44] ---**
Leave his beard for me.
**[12:47] ---**
Master has gone missing.
**[12:51] ---**
What about everyone else?
**[12:52] ---**
Where's Erza? Where's Gray? And...
**[12:55] ---**
Everyone went their separate ways.
**[13:02] ---**
I... I don't believe it.
**[13:05] ---**
The guild is gone,
and everybody's fine with that?
**[13:10] ---**
I don't know.
**[13:12] ---**
That's what it sounds like!
**[13:14] ---**
Even if Gramps declared it disbanded,
you guys should've opposed it!
**[13:18] ---**
Laxus or somebody should've
become the next master!
**[13:21] ---**
I don't know if you're in
any position to say that, Natsu.
**[13:27] ---**
After all, you weren't
thinking about the guild.
**[13:32] ---**
You didn't consult anyone.
**[13:34] ---**
You just went on your journey.
**[13:42] ---**
Sorry.
**[13:44] ---**
Natsu and Happy,
**[13:46] ---**
I'm sure you had a lot on your mind, right?
**[13:57] ---**
It must've been like that for Master
and the others, too.
**[14:17] ---**
This is where you live, Lucy?
**[14:19] ---**
So you live in Crocus, huh?
**[14:22] ---**
It's closer to my job here.
**[14:25] ---**
You guys don't have a place to stay, do you?
**[14:27] ---**
You can stay with me.
**[14:29] ---**
Goddess!
**[14:30] ---**
Goddess Lucy!
**[14:34] ---**
But don't you dare break anything!
**[14:36] ---**
And don't go into my bedroom!
**[14:40] ---**
What did I just say, cat?!
**[14:43] ---**
Don't make a mess as soon as you get here!
**[14:46] ---**
I wonder if there's anything
interesting in here...
**[14:48] ---**
Knock it off!
**[14:55] ---**
I feel lighter!
**[15:01] ---**
This feels great!
**[15:03] ---**
Lucy, wanna take a bath with us?
**[15:05] ---**
As if!
**[15:09] ---**
And so then...
**[15:12] ---**
Lucy, it wasn't funny.
**[15:15] ---**
We went through our money
for the trip in no time
**[15:18] ---**
and had to take on jobs to get by.
**[15:20] ---**
But I'm sure Natsu blew all of
that money on restaurants, right?
**[15:25] ---**
Exactly! I'd always just get fish,
**[15:28] ---**
but he'd keep ordering dishes...
**[15:31] ---**
You say you just got fish, but you
ordered a whole hell of a lotta fish!
**[15:36] ---**
Not as many as you!
**[15:38] ---**
In the end, we always got
stuck washing dishes.
**[15:40] ---**
If I'd known, I would've studied
dish-washing under Mira before we left!
**[15:48] ---**
Well, something like that
happened before, too.
**[15:50] ---**
Yeah. Honestly, Natsu is hopeless without me.
**[15:55] ---**
What?! That ain't true!
**[15:58] ---**
Yes, it is! It's always like that.
**[16:01] ---**
All right, tell me!
**[16:03] ---**
When? What year, what month, what day,
what time, down to the second?
**[16:06] ---**
Lucy, did you hear that?
It's like he's a little kid!
**[16:10] ---**
Excuse me?!
**[16:11] ---**
Oh, that's right, Lucy!
**[16:14] ---**
We ran into Gildarts in some forest.
**[16:18] ---**
Really?! What happened?!
**[16:21] ---**
We rumbled, of course!
**[16:25] ---**
But of course...
**[16:27] ---**
It hurt like hell.
**[16:29] ---**
And then...
**[16:47] ---**
But then...
**[17:00] ---**
That was in the newspaper, too!
**[17:03] ---**
And after that...
**[17:05] ---**
What?!
**[17:09] ---**
Gildarts mixed up his bag with Natsu's bag...
**[17:19] ---**
...and when we went to unpack our lunch...
**[17:28] ---**
Gildarts was crying as he chased us down.
**[17:31] ---**
Maybe a photo of Cana was in there?
**[17:34] ---**
You might be right!
**[17:37] ---**
Okay! That makes seven wins in a row for me!
**[17:41] ---**
Up yours! One more time! One more time!
**[17:43] ---**
Again?!
**[17:44] ---**
I ain't gonna quit 'til I win!
**[17:47] ---**
Shut up, neighbor!
**[17:50] ---**
It's been a long time since
I've had something like this.
**[18:01] ---**
Happy...
**[18:03] ---**
Aye...
**[18:05] ---**
The guild's gone?
**[18:08] ---**
Unbelievable, huh?
**[18:13] ---**
All right!
**[18:15] ---**
Let's scribble on Lucy's face
while she's sleeping!
**[18:18] ---**
I've got the markers!
**[18:29] ---**
She's sound asleep!
**[18:30] ---**
Try not to wake her up, Natsu.
**[18:33] ---**
Gently, gently...
**[18:35] ---**
Hey, what are you gonna draw?
**[18:36] ---**
First a mustache, of course...
**[18:38] ---**
Then thick eyebrows... And nose hairs...
**[18:51] ---**
What is this?
**[19:02] ---**
Everyone's location...
**[19:04] ---**
With really detailed notes.
**[19:07] ---**
Eyewitness sightings, dates...
**[19:11] ---**
Lucy...
**[19:29] ---**
Eh? What is this?!
**[19:31] ---**
This is the place!
**[19:32] ---**
Shall we barge in, Captain?
**[19:34] ---**
Why are there soldiers in front of
my house first thing in the morning?!
**[19:38] ---**
They sniffed us out already?
**[19:41] ---**
Aye...
**[19:41] ---**
You two are behind this?!
**[19:44] ---**
Let's go, Lucy!
**[19:46] ---**
What did you do?!
**[19:49] ---**
Run for it!
**[19:51] ---**
He's the culprit!
**[19:53] ---**
After him!
**[19:54] ---**
Why are they chasing me, too?!
And put me down!
**[19:59] ---**
What did you do, Natsu?!
**[20:04] ---**
I made a signal to get
Fairy Tail back together!
**[20:08] ---**
I went big and in a conspicuous place!
**[20:11] ---**
Fairy Tail?!
**[20:12] ---**
Get fire extinguishers! Hurry!
**[20:14] ---**
Your Majesty...
**[20:15] ---**
Good grief...
**[20:15] ---**
We believe the culprit is Natsu Dragneel!
**[20:17] ---**
I... I... forgive him...
**[20:18] ---**
He's currently heading south of the castle!
**[20:21] ---**
Summon the Garou Knights!
**[20:23] ---**
Fairy Tail is getting back together?!
**[20:25] ---**
Cool! What a scoop!
**[20:29] ---**
Good luck, Lucy! Stay cool!
**[20:32] ---**
It's okay! Those flames
will burn out quickly!
**[20:36] ---**
That's not the point!
**[20:38] ---**
How can you say Fairy Tail's
getting back together?!
**[20:41] ---**
You believe it can be done, right?
**[20:43] ---**
We'll get everyone together,
and reform the guild!
**[20:54] ---**
Come on!
**[21:03] ---**
Yeah!
**[23:31] ---**
I wonder how far we'll get today.
**[23:33] ---**
We'll go as far as we can!
**[23:35] ---**
As far as we can, huh?
**[23:37] ---**
Then that town on the other side
of the mountain, maybe...
**[23:41] ---**
I see. We have to cross the mountain.
Then how about catching a lift there?
