Back in Magnolia, Aidan found another Gildarts Change, and then accidentally crossed paths with Gray.

- This time you quickly, - the guy greeted, while his hands were already fully unbuttoning his shirt.

Aidan glanced at the exhibitionist with a wry grin.

- I had to find something. Where have you been?

- I went on a mission.

- What kind of task?

- Well, in short ...

For a little chat, the friends finally made it to the guild when the city was rebuilding from the Gildarts Change.

Having crossed the threshold, of course, everyone found the greeting scene with a laughing, drunken crowd.

- Ha, look who came! Finally, several people spotted Gray and Aidan.

Having exchanged a few words with several acquaintances, the guy said goodbye to Gray and greeted Gildarts:

- How is the assignment?

- Oh, don't even ask, boredom is mortal ... - Having settled down at the bar, Gildarts, as usual, proceeded to the long-awaited rest.

- Something Natsu can't see, - Clive examined the guild in surprise.

- Really found a girlfriend?

"Haha, you could say that." Aidan put down his backpack and poured himself some wine.

- Oh, and we have newbies here, as I see, - finally noticed Elfman and a few more new ones, Gildarts.

Aidan nodded.

- There is such, you look next time you come, then the Master will change and the guild will be renamed.

- Ha ha ha! This is possible guy! Very much! Ha-ha, this time, I will probably leave for a long time, I have a business in mind ...

- ABOUT! - Aidan noticed Makarov slowly descending the stairs:

- Master!

Two raised their mugs in greeting to the old man.

- Heh, came, it's good ...

Aidan decided to leave the two magicians and went in search of Wendy himself, first of all, getting close to Kana, who was sitting at the far table:

- Hello.

"Uh-huh," she nodded slightly in response.

Following her gaze, the guy shook his head.

"You know, I'm not blind.

- Um, what? What are you talking about? - Kahn immediately made an innocent look.- Eh, - shaking his head, the guy translated the topic:

- Where is Wendy?

- Oh, well ... I saw her with Natsu this morning. Together with Lisanna they went somewhere, - Cana bent down slightly and whispered:

"Don't tell the world.

Aidan nodded and looked around.

- Yes, and not to see her ...

- This is because of Erza, they fought again, and then they argued about something and went on a mission. Don't look like that, they went in different directions and tore off different leaflets.

Cana chuckled a little.

- What? Decided to hit on the newcomer? Do you miss our scarlet hair?

Aidan threw an annoyed look at his friend, but said nothing, and then stood up:

- Okay, I'll go find Wendy.

- Uh-huh ...

In the eastern forest of Magnolia, in a lonely thatched house, sat three children, surrounded by a rather large and unusual egg. Lisanna sat next to Natsu and Wendy opposite.

"So you're both Dragon Slayers, cool! - exclaimed Lisanna, after talking about magic. Before that, they chatted about different things, about Aidan and the affairs of the guild. Lisanna herself called Wendy, and the girl did not mind spending time with friends.

- What were the names of your dragons?

- Ha! My Igneel!

"Mm ... Grandina," Wendy said sadly.

- Look, I was thinking, how did we ... - but Lisanna did not have time to finish, as Wendy suddenly exclaimed happily:

- Brother!

- Eh?

Almost knocking Natsu off her feet, Wendy jumped up and threw herself into Aidan's arms. He did not even have time to enter the hut, when this cute kitten gently pressed against his chest.

- Haha, Wendy ... I only left for a couple of days. What are you doing?

"Hmm, I missed you anyway," the girl purred, continuing her tight hugs:

- When we already go on assignments together ...

- Well, someday ... - After ruffling her hair, Aidan suddenly remembered something and smiled:

"Since you're so lonely, I brought you someone.

- Did you bring it? Wendy pulled back and blinked curiously. "What are you talking about?

Lisanna and Natsu all this time looked in amazement at this strange couple of brother and sister. Even Lisanna was surprised. Wendy smiled so brightly ... This had only happened a couple of times in her memory. She hadn't heard much about Aidan, but mostly when they talked about this guy, Wendy always became joyful, and Natsu seemed to like him. And now, Lisanna was able to personally see this guy.

"So this is what he is ..." - Lisanna studied his face curiously, while Natsu stood up and calmly walked over to him, greeting him.

- What have you got there? I want to watch too!- Ha, wait, let me open the backpack.

Natsu and Wendy waited with noticeable curiosity for the guy to get something. Then Lisanna joined them.

- Hello.

Aidan looked up and smiled.

"You're Lisanna, aren't you?

- Yeah, are you Aidan?

- Exactly.

The girl could not admit that this guy looked pretty attractive, but, in fact, she, like Natsu and Wendy, was more interested in what he kept in his backpack.

Finally, Aidan unrolled the cloth, and something white and indefinite appeared in the light. But then ...

Pulling out the egg, Aidan handed it to Wendy without thinking. The girl involuntarily grabbed him with a puzzled expression:

`` Th-this ...

- Wow! - exclaimed Lisanna: - It's just like our Egg!

- Is our?! - Natsu chuckled: - I found him ...

Aidan stroked his little sister affectionately.

- This is a gift. I think when she hatches you will become close friends. If I am not there, she will definitely be.

- Um ... Thank you ... - Tears came to the corners of Wendy's eyes.

Noticing her sincere joy, the guy's soul immediately warmed up. He has finally fulfilled this important duty of reuniting these two cute kitties. Finally, he didn't have to worry about Wendy losing his best friend. Now she was in her arms, and the way she held her ... They would definitely become inseparable.

Wendy's tears of joy suddenly began to run, but then she sniffed, laid the egg and hugged her brother with all her might.

"Oh, what a cute couple," Lisanna grinned, nudging Natsu with an elbow. "What do you think?"

He didn't even pay attention to her. The guy was already staring at the pure white egg:

- It's so strange ... It doesn't even have anything on it. Why is that?

Aidan stroked his sister gently and replied:

"I don't know, but they are definitely not dragons. But, I can definitely say that a girl is hiding in Wendy's egg, and a boy will be born from your Natsu. I think they will be born almost at the same time, give or take three or four days.

Of course, he lied, he clearly saw the silhouettes of the creatures inside, but he decided to keep it a secret. Fortunately, no one asked questions, how did he determine the gender of the creatures.

- Where did you find it? - asked Lisanna, touching the white shell. Wendy looked up, too.

- Well, it's a secret, - the guy answered mysteriously.

"Hmm," Lisanna narrowed her eyes suspiciously. "Of course.

- Well, I have to go.

- What? Already? - Wendy was upset again and pressed closer to her brother.

- No, I'm going home. This time I will stay in the guild for about a month, we will stay together again, I promise.

- True?

- True. You can even stay with me if you want, - the guy smiled, again gently shaking the baby's hair: - While you take care of the egg, it will soon hatch.

- Y-yes ... I get it! - after his words, Wendy beamed with joy, two gifts in one day delighted her!

- I have the best brother in the world!
