You can use an Overlay, I guess.

Look up "Overlay.CreateTextual" (or something like that) in the manual. It's explained there quite neatly.

Overlays don't support transparency (except when using an alpha-channel image and 32bit), so I guess when it comes to fading, a GUI is the best way.
Mehrdad, why don't you want to use them?

Your game would only get slow if you displayed hundreds of GUIs at the same time.

Put the text on a label on a blank GUI and change the GUI's transparency.
Give us more info and we can help you with a specific problem.
