Daphne arc

The Daphne arc is an anime-only arc that took place between the Oración Seis arc and the Edolas arc of the Fairy Tail series.

New Members, New Friends
Team Natsu returns home to their guild with Wendy and Charle. Natsu enjoys a short time of sick free transport and Lucy thinks back to all that happened after learning the truth about Cait Shelter. The light team members all head back to their guilds on good terms, and Lucy meets up with Gemini, Scorpio, and Aries who tells her of Angel's arrest and their voided contracts. They ask to form a contract with Lucy who is surprised to receive 3 of the 12 ecliptic keys at once. She also shows her kindness to the spirits, which is no surprise for Gemini, confusion for being called a person for Scorpio, and happiness for Aries for finding a nice owner, free of mistreatment, and being able to be with Leo.

As they arrive at Fairy Tail, Wendy and Charle are instantly welcomed by everyone. Everyone is glad that Team Natsu managed to arrive back safely and for taking out 1/3 of the Balam Alliance. They learn of Wendy being the Sky Dragon Slayer and the master then throws a welcome party for Wendy and Charle. Wendy instantly takes a liking to the guild but Charle is somewhat disturbed by the guilds immaturity. Mystogan then looks down from the second floor and, surprised to see Wendy arriving at Fairy Tail, disappears in a gust of wind.

The Woman Who Cried Dragon
A week later, Wendy and Charle are looking for a job on the guild request board while Lucy and Levy encourage them to go on their first job with their respective teams. Meanwhile, Gray approaches Natsu and informs him that he overheard a rumor that a woman named Daphne saw a dragon. After Gray tells Natsu where to find the woman, Natsu immediately leaves with Happy. Hoping that the dragon would be Grandeeney, Wendy and Charle decide to join the two while Gajeel decides to stay behind, thinking that the information is false. Natsu ignores Gajeel's comment and goes to leave with Wendy and the others following him.
