Return To Ishgar

[Two Months Later. Four Months Since Jason Was Sent To Edolas.]

(Jason's POV)

"Where is she?" I asked Karameel, "I've been waiting all day for her to arrive..." 

"Just calm down, Jason." She said with a chuckle, "You'll be fine..." 

Karameel was sitting down on a chair as she was crocheting a scarf for Allan. Apparantely, his birthday was coming up and she wanted to give him a new one. 

It's been two months since I've been staying on this Island, which was called Ruined Island, ironically. I was helping out with the people of Rascal Town, a funny name. And helping out with the Demon Folk that lived in the ruins of an ancient temple. It was peaceful most of the time, but sometimes I dealt with some raiders and pirates.

Karameel had returned for the first time in two months since she left just earlier this week. Her master was doing fine so she wanted to check in on the people. 

There were days I went and trained with Igora and Oga and times were I trained by myself in order to hone my new Sword and Moon God Slayer Magic. 

There were nights were Selene dropped by and gave me tips on how to improve on Moon God Slayer Magic. 

We had sex, of course. Similar to Irene, her lessons came at a price. I remember her telling me that she'd soon give me the location of Silver if she ever found out. She hasn't. I reckon that bastard has been a slimy one these days. 

There was this one conversation Selene and I had that made me question our relationship. 

"Acnologia is close to sniffing us out here in Guiltina...." She had said, "I hope someone would be strong and bold enough to fight him off for me, hehe~" 

"I'm not your damn tool, Selene." I replied to her

She then told me she'll simply move worlds if that came to be. But I really don't see it happening. She has become attached to me...or my cock, rather. 

I sighed, "Man..." I said, "Can't believe today's the day...last night's farewell party was nice.." 

Today was the day I returned to Ishgar. I had kept in contact with Crime Sorciere via Ultear and Sorano who sent letters and dropped by once, each. I fucked them, of course, but other than that it was a visit to exchange information. 

I had also kept in contact with Fairy Tail via a transponder device I had sent to them with Erza back when she had left the Island. Mavis was always excited to hear my voice and we often talked for hours. 

Just last night, after the party, we talked. It was nice, hearing her voice. It was soothing. 

"You and that guild of yours are actually gonna do that thing you said they wanted to do?" Karameel asked

I looked at her, "What a way to word it..." I said, "But yea....it's gonna happen. Also, it's not my guild. I ain't in it." 

She was referring to an event that Fairy Tail had been organizing for the past few weeks. Apparently, I was the main attraction and they needed me here as soon as possible. 

Aside from that, I had business in Ishgar. A meeting with the Magic Council, which Jellal had organized, despite my protests. That guy was a pain in my ass, but that meeting is gonna have to wait till after the event. 

"Man..." I said standing up and pacing around, "Where's Igora? I know it might not be easy to say farewell to her people but man....she told me she'd be here an hour ago!" 

Karameel chuckled again, "She's gonna leave the island for the first time in decades." She said, "Cut her some slack." 

I frowned, "I guess that makes sense..." I said, "By the way, I wonder how her appearance will do over there." 

"I wouldn't worry about it." She said

Igora was going to accompany me. She had swore her loyalty to me as a trusted ally and wished to join me on my return to Ishgar. I told her it was unnecessary but she was quite insistent. 

She had said she was going to say her farewells and then do something about her appearance. She was an Ifrit; a massive 10 foot She-Demon with 4 arms, horns, and three eyes. That was something not everyone would just ignore. Not only that, but her red muscular red body, it was an eye-catcher. 

"I wonder what's taking her so long." I said aloud

"I'm here!" I heard a booming voice 

I turned around and widened my eyes in shock. 

"Whoa!" I said, "I-Igora!!" 

In front of me, wasn't the she-demon that I just described. In front of me, stood a tall curvaceous woman with smooth and silky skin, large breasts, curvy hips, a nice ass, two pretty eyes, grey hair, and two not-so-distracting horns.

A fucking sexy babe, in short. 

She also wore tight-black pants, and a white shirt that showed her mid-section, which let me tell you, she was fucking ripped. She had nicely toned six-pack abs. He arms were also swole, her muscles wanted to break free from the human skin. Oh yea, she also only had 2 arms. Not 4. Two.

I was so shocked. I didn't know what to think. Was this Igora, The Wrath? The Ifrit warrior that almost wanted to beat my ass for wielding a specific magic? 

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Jason." She said, "It is, I, Igora. Your trusted and loyal companion." 

"W-what...." I said

"Told you not to worry about the appearance thing.." Karameel said

"Kukuku..." Igora said with a smile, "It is my transformation magic. I took a bit too long because the human clothes I had were old and worn. So I went to my friend's house in the port town and borrowed some. Here, look at this cool leather jacket." 

She had a black leather jacket in one of her hands as he large kanobo club rested on her other hand as it was placed on the ground.

"Wow..." I said, "I am surprised. I'm more used to your true form, this is a bit too much to take in." 

Igora smiled, "Your country might not be too accepting of my original appearance." She said, "This'll do. I am ready to embark on our journey, Jason." 

I smiled, "Alright then." I said, "Let's go."

*****************************************************************

"That was a strange vehicle, Jason." Igora said as we walked down the streets of Magnolia, "Never seen anything like that." 

She was referring to my Warship, the Archangel's might, which we took to fly our way back to Fiore and straight to Magnolia. I had made modifications to it, adding more room for a second person to fit in there as it was a single-person ship. 

"Yea.." I said with a slight smile, "It's nice ain't it?" 

It felt odd, returning here after quite some time had passed. I didn't know what to expect. 

"It's odd." Igora said as she walked behind me, "Nobody is staring at me as I had expected them to." 

"The people of magnolia are already used to crazy sights." I told her, "Their Mages Guild make sure they see them." 

"I see." She said, "These humans sound like they're a handful." 

"They are." I said, "Trust me." 

Several minutes later, we walked through the doors of the Fairy Tail guild. Inside, I saw the usual crowd of rowdy mages that Fairy Tail is known for. 

As I walked, they all stopped and looked at us, surprised at the sudden appearance. 

Suddenly, I heard a loud bellow. 

"JASSOOOOOONNNNNN!!" I heard someone yell out

From the side, I saw Natsu charge at me with a wicked grin on his face. 

"You're hereeee!!!!" He yelled

Igora suddenly stood in front of me as Natsu ran straight into her, falling straight on his ass. 

"Ughhh!!!" He grunted as he looked up at her, "What the hell? A brick wall? Who're you?" 

Igora was leaning her kanobo club on her shoulders as she looked at Natsu. 

"I can ask the same question, Human." She said, "You....." 

I noticed that Igora's expression shifted as she noticed something. 

I then placed my hand on her shoulder, "Easy, Igora." I said, "It's fine. This here is Natsu Dragneel, he's Fairy Tail's Salamander." 

Igora raised her eyebrow, "Dragneel?" She said

Natsu stood up and patted his pants, "That's right." He said, "Who're you?" 

I then noticed as Happy flew towards us, "Oooh." He said, "A pretty and muscular lady with Jason.....I wonder what that's about..." 

I knew exactly what he meant by that. 

I chuckled, "No, Happy." I said, "This here is Igora, she's a friend of mine." 

Igora nodded, "It is true." She said, "I am Jason's loyal companion. I embarked on this journey with him. We are to vanquish evil." 

Natsu smiled, "Oh really?" I said, "Well before that, Jason...." 

I sighed, "yea yea..." I said, "I know." 

I noticed as familiar faces approached. 

"Jason!" Levy said with a smile

Gray also walked up, "Oh, look who's finally back." He said

I saw as Lisanna, Cana, Juvia, and some more walked up to us to greet me.

I greeted the small group who approached and introduced them to Igora. As I did this, I noticed a couple of faces off into the distance who were just glancing in my direction. 

Lucy was sitting down in a table as she looked over with a neutral look on her face. Mirajane was across the counter of the bar as she, too, merely looked at my direction. 

I saw Laxus and Gajeel sitting next to each other, giving me serious and somewhat hostile stares. I guess they still have beef with me. 

"Jason!!" I heard a bright voice call out for me

I looked past the Fairy Tail Mages and saw the beautiful sight of Mavis. She was wearing a different colored dress that showed a bit of her cleavage. She was still barefooted, I saw as she walked up to us. 

Man, she looked incredibly beautiful. So pretty, her amazing body was an amazing sight to behold. 

She reached me as she blushed slightly, giving me the biggest smile she could possibly have. 

"You're back~" She said as she placed her hands behind her back, "I missed you~" 

I gave her a smile, "Yea..." I said, "I missed you too...." 

As we looked at each other, smiling, I heard some murmuring amongst the others. There was a bit of silence as I felt all eyes on us. 

"Hey!" I heard Natsu break the silence, "That's nice and all, but First! Jason's here! That makes it official, right???" 

Mavis looked at Natsu, "Oh, yes." She said, "Of course. Master Makarov signed off on it, so yes. Preparations are complete." 

I heard Igora speak, "Preparations for what?" 

Natsu cracked his knuckles, "My long-awaited rematch..." He said while smirking, 

"I'm gonna fight Jason!"
