After Mystogan explained everything no one could form a thought.

How were they able to process that there was a parallel universe exactly like theirs but more messed up and without magic?

On top of that Mystogan was named Jellal who pretended to be Mystogan because there was already a Jellal on Earthland. And on top of that, the Edolas Jellal was the prince of the kingdom with an evil dad.

Everyone understood that Edolas was a universe without magic but the fact that their friends were about to be squished down like beetle juice was shocking.

"I hope you don't mind but please help me save your guild." Mystogan pleaded as he got on his hands and knees.

Lucy and Wendy crouched down next to him.

"Of course we don't mind! You're our big brother after all!" Wendy exclaimed with a smile.

Erza stepped up and stuck out a hand.

"Is that how a future king should act? Let's go save them." Mystogan was taken aback but smiled gratefully as he took her hand.

"We'll enter through a portal. From there I'll have to go my own way so that you all won't be suspected. Here are some clothes so you'll be able to blend in." Mystogan said as he handed them each some clothes.

"Where will you go then?" Gray asked, stripping right then and there.

"Gray! Don't change in front of us!" Lucy yelled, covering Wendy's eyes.

"Oh don't be such a mom Cinnamon Roll! He does it all the time!" Natsu rolled his eyes and stripped next to gray.

"Aki! Forget them let's go over here!" Lucy took wendy to a more secluded spot behind the boys and started changing.

"Mind if we join you?" A voice asked from behind them.

Juvia popped out of nowhere as Erza followed behind her.

"J- Juvia!! You scared me." Wendy gave a sigh of relief.

"For some reason, I get that a lot." Juvia pondered on the thought cluelessly.

"Well, maybe you shouldn't sneak up on people Juvia." Lucy chuckled, putting her clothes on.

"I see both of your points but you need stealth for killing people Lucy. Stealth." Erza said jokingly.

Wendy covered her face with her arms, leaving her eyes peeking out.

"You need stealth like a ninja for those kinds of things! Like this!" She snuck up behind Juvia, jumping on her and attacking her with tickles.

Erza and Lucy burst out laughing as Juvia turned around and started to attack Wendy with her own tickles.

"I call this 'Revenge of the Tickle Attack'!" Juvia shouted as Wendy begged her to stop.

"Oi! Hurry up or we'll leave without you!" They heard Gajeel shout.

"Coming!" They shouted in unison and giggled before rushing back to the group.

The boys were already talking when they had joined with the group again.

"So what's happening?" Lucy asked, panting from laughing earlier.

"I was just telling them that I would be going to the capital. You guys should split into two groups so that you won't be noticeable." Mystogan explained.

"Then what are the groups?" Erza turned to the rest of the group.

"I'm going with Cinnamon Roll," Natsu stated simply.

"Aki, no. We agreed that this won't happen remember?" Lucy said putting her hands on her hips.

Natsu looked away and crossed his arms but sighed signaling that she had won the fight.

"Oh yeah where are Carla and the others?" Wendy asked Mystogan.

"I sent them ahead. They'll come to help you once they solve everything out on their end. The plan is we meet up at the Capital and if we can successfully destroy the machines that drain the magic then you guys can go home." Mystogan replied.

"Alright. According to our stats, the groups should be Natsu, Wendy, Gray, and Juvia and Erza, Gajeel, and me." Lucy said aloud thoughtfully.

"What! Why am I stuck with Flam Brain?!" Gray yelled out in protest.

"Suck it up! Juvia works better with you around and you and Natsu fuel each other's will to fight!" Lucy shouted back sternly.

"Fine!" Gray pouted as he sulked in the corner.

"Alright then. We will have Erza their group go first. Head towards the town when you arrive so that you guys don't go the same way." Mystogan ordered.

Erza, Gajeel, and Lucy nodded nervously, preparing to go into a completely new universe.

"The portal will take a few seconds to open up. Why don't you say goodbye?" Mystogan suggested to the group.

Erza gave everyone a hug and Gajeel gave them a parting nod but nothing more.

Lucy also gave everyone a parting hug and a little 'see you again' message.

"Aki you can let go now," Lucy whispered to him when he wouldn't let go.

"No, who knows when I'll see you again," Natsu replied stubbornly.

"Hey, look at me." The blonde said," We're going to rescue everyone and then we'll see each other again, okay?"

"Fine whatever." Natsu walked off and joined his group.

Lucy hesitantly walked over to Erza and Gajeel, turning back every once in a while to look at Natsu but the pinky still wouldn't look at her.

Taking one last glance she sighed and the group walked to Mystogan's portal.

"Remember head for the town." Mystogan reminded.

The three of them nodded and prepared themselves. They felt themselves dropping before landing on what felt like soil under their feet.

"I guess we're here..." Erza started quietly, looking around.

They saw floating islands with waterfalls flowing in the sky from island to island and weirdly shaped animals. The sky seemed almost magical as ironic as that sounded.

"Wow." Lucy breathed as she stared at the strange land.

"Oi the town is this way!" Gajeel shouted, pointing to structures in the distance.

"Good eyes Gajeel! Let's get going!" Erza walked towards the direction of the town as Lucy and Gajeel followed closely behind her.

"Hey, Erza is there something between you and Mystogan?" Lucy asked innocently.

"Not really he just looks like someone I knew." The redhead simply answered not looking at her.

"Yeah, Jellal was a real pain," Gajeel muttered.

"I'm guessing he's from our land." The two nodded giving Lucy her answer.

"You know Mystogan said this land didn't have magic but it's looking like it's pretty magical to me," Erza spoke up after a few minutes of silence.

"Yeah, it makes no sense how they would have floating lands without magic." Gajeel agreed, taking another look around.

"Couldn't agree more. This place called Edolas is pretty weird." The three took another look around taking in the landscape of a land they never knew existed.
