**Levy gives one and shows how much Fairy Tail has helped her grow.
-->'''Thomas''': What did you hope to gain by being with those Fairies?! How can a bunch of drunk wizards who love destruction benefit you? By teaching you it's okay to be pathetic?!
-->'''Levy''': No. They taught me to be fierce. They taught me to remain calm. They taught me to be noble. They taught me to be brave. And they taught me, to protect my family!
**After Gajeel ate the Increpferrum from Laxus, Zero comments that Gajeel is now a sinner like him. Gajeel's response?
-->'''Gajeel''': Every member Fairy Tail has their own batch of sins. But you know what makes me and Laxus different from you lot?
-->'''Zero''': No, I don't. Do enlighten me then.
-->'''Gajeel''': Is that when it comes to our sins, we actually do something about them!
** Lyon gave one right before he defeats Azuma.
-->'''Lyon''': You can take our magic. But you can't take, OUR SPIRIT!

Though initially a basic rehash at the start, Alternate Tail slowly but surely diverges from canon in its own AlternateUniverse.

Two Series have been written, each for the year they take place:
*Part 1: Fairy Tail: An Alternate Tail[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11988058/1/Fairy-Tail-An-Alternate-Tail]]; Takes place in X784

----
! The Alternate Tail Series contains examples of:

*AdaptationalBackstoryChange: Numerous Cases, such as...
**Gajeel joining Fairy Tail when he is young while Natsu joins Phantom Lord.
**Levy does not join Fairy Tail as a kid, while Lucy does
**Pantherlily follows Mystogan to Earthland, while Happy was not sent with the other Exceed eggs to Earthland
**Lyon heads to the west and joins Fairy Tail, while Gray becomes obsessed with defeating Deliora
**Mira and her siblings were separated during an attack by Cultists of Zeref. As such, Elfman and Lisanna join Fairy Tail years earlier than canon, and Mira spends years in the Tower of Heaven.
**Merudy is taken in by Jose, while Juvia was in the town Grimoire Heart destroyed, only to be saved by Ultear.
**Kagura is found by a young Mystogan while trying to find her brother Simon and is later given to Roubal.

*AdaptationalBadass: Numerous cases, with Mira being a primary example, going from friendly barmaid to action girl.

*AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: As she did not "die" like in canon, Lisanna appears in the second chapter as Fairy Tail's barmaid.

*AgeLift: Kagura and Rogue are de-aged to 13 and 6 respectively.

*ChekhovsGun: Numerous examples.
**Part of the reward for the Galuna Island job were tablets that contained a type of holy letter magic. Levy then used this magic [[spoiler:to beat Freed during the Battle of Fairy Tail]].
**Like in the anime, Erigor made a return during the Oracion Seis arc. However, not only does his coat get taken by Laxus, but his scythe is taken so it can be fed to Gajeel.

*CompositeCharacter: Word of God describes this story's version of Mira as such, being a combination of canon Mira's mature self and her younger, hellion self.
