4. Hunter's Locator

"I think I see the light... I'm sorry guys but I'm not going m-make it." Nashi slumped onto ground, her insides felt like it was twisted as her face turned into a shade of green.

"Stop being dramatic, Flame Brain. You're not dying." Storm rolled his eyes at the pink haired dragon slayer. "Gale's injured and he's handling it better than you." He said further emphasising how useless Nashi was being.

Gale sat silently in the corner clutching onto his stomach like his life depended on it. Both dragon slayers were suffering from one of man's most ruthless inventions... transportation.

"Hold out for a little longer, you two." Hunter soothed as he looked out the window. "We're nearly there...Oh and by the way, if you vomit on my coat, Nashi, I will kill you." Nashi groaned.

---------

"Thank Mavis! I thought I'd never see you again." Nashi was on her knees kissing the dirt ground. This earned some concerned stares from passing civilians. "I'm so glad I'm off that death-trap." She hugged the ground with a stupid grin on her face.

"Have some damn dignity, Pyro Pants." Storm barked at the girl.

"At least I'm wearing pants" Nashi retorted. Storm looked to see he, indeed, didn't have pants on.

"Dammit, where'd they go this time?"

Gale exited the train and then fell flat on his face onto the ground. Hunter was about to help him up when Gale spoke. "Just leave me here, man. I'm treasuring the non-movingness of the ground."

Hunter stopped for a moment in silence before shrugging. "Okay, I'll give you five minutes."

After five minutes, the group was able to leave the train station. They walked to a small apartment building not that far away. It was a decent place, not overly bad or good.

Nashi, Storm and Gale followed Hunter to room number 4. He knocked 3 times and waited for minutes before the door opened revealing Bianca Groh.

Bianca Groh was the 18 year old daughter of Cana and Bacchus Groh. She had long brown hair and piercing violet eyes. She lived alone in the small apartment not far from her guild, Quatro Cerberus. She and Cana are the only girls in the guild.

"BIANCA!" Nashi, Storm and Gale shouted happily hugging her. Although Bianca was in Quatro Cerberus with her parents, she had always been welcome to Fairy Tail.

"Hunterrrrr...." Bianca groaned. "I thought early would be like 8. Not 5 in the morning." She growled holding her head.

"It's urgent. We have to do this before our parents, especially Master Laxus, find out." Hunter responded crossing his arms over his chest, unintentionally making himself look intimidating.

Bianca frowned and sighed, pulling away from Nashi, Storm and Gale's grip. "I'm still a little hungover so while I go get a drink of water, you guys make yourselves comfortable."

--------

All the teens were in the living room. Gale laid comfortably on the one couch in the room while Storm and Nashi sprawled themselves on the ground. Hunter stayed standing as he watched over Bianca who sat on the seat in front of the coffee table.

Bianca cracked her knuckles as she looked down at the cards spread over the map on her table.

"Okay first thing we need is something connected to Alexis." She instructed looking at Hunter.

"You never said anything about that when we were talking before." He said clearly annoyed.

"Well I thought it was pretty obvious. All locating spells need something linked to who they are tracking." Bianca explained in frustration. Hunter face-palmed before looking at the others.

"Do you have anything that could be used to track Alexis?" He asked the other three. Nashi and Gale both shook their heads.

"Anything?" Storm asked sceptically.

"Yes." Bianca responded quickly.

Storm, on the hand, rummaged through his bag. It took him a few seconds before he pulled out a small half-burnt tennis ball.

"What the hell is that?" Nashi asked snatching the ball from Storm and examining it for herself.

"Raiden gave it to me when I left the guild to go home." Storm answered. "He told me that one day he kept throwing it at Alexis because she wouldn't play with him. She got fed up and used her magic against it leaving it like that."

Gale snatched the ball from Nashi. "That sounds exactly like something she would do. Raiden has guts for annoying her so much." He stated before throwing the ball to Hunter. "Why'd he give it to you?"

"Apparently Layla got her hands on it, he got angry and nearly hurt her. He wants me to keep it safe." Storm said running his hand through his hair. Hunter handed the ball to Bianca.

"This will do just fine." She said. "It'll take a little while longer seeing as this is a couple years old."

--------

"GOT HER!" Bianca exclaimed after two hours. Nashi jolted awake as did Gale who both fell asleep while waiting. "She's in a small town named Letha, only a day's train ride from here."

"T-TRAIN?!" Nashi and Gale both groaned. Their faces both paled.

"Nice Job." Hunter congratulated patting Bianca on the shoulder.

"No problem." She yawned stretching her arms out. "Anything for my friends." She said for a smile.

Storm stood up and grabbed the ball stuffing it back into his travel bag. "We should get going, then." He said to Hunter who nodded.

"Cmon, you two." Hunter commanded. Both Gale and Nashi dragged their bodies reluctantly with sad expressions on their faces.

"Bye Bianca. Thanks for the help." They all said to her before heading out the door. Bianca laughed and waved them off.

"Wait!" She called out to them. Everyone stopped in their tracks and turned around.

"What is it, Bianca?" Storm asked raising a brow

"Be careful. Alexis has a habit of hurting people." She said warning them. "I don't want any of you to get hurt."

"Don't worry, I have a feeling everything will turn out fine." Nashi grinned.

Nashi probs jinxed it by saying that LOL! Vote/Comment! btw the image is supposed to be Hunter. Thanks for reading!
