Fairy Tail Guild........

“Mira-san! Let’s have a contest!”, Wakaba and Macao announced.

“Oh my, what contest could it be? The festival is over already”, Mirajane smiled.

“Speaking about the festival, this year was the most tiring isn’t it?”, Romeo said.

“That’s because unexpected things happened”, Wendy said.

“Good thing the guild is saved and Natsu doesn’t have to get married”, Lisanna.

“Right”, Erza agreed.

“GRAY-SAMA!!! GRAY-SAMA IS MISSING”, Juvia was crying all over the guild looking for Gray.

“I think Gray went outside”, Cana said then continued drinking her barrel of booze.

“JUVIA WILL FOLLOW!”, Juvia made a dash to the door.

“It’s too noisy here”, Gajeel whined. He looked over to Levy who is in the process of dismissing her book because she can’t concentrate on reading either. “Wanna go on a job?”, Gajeel asked Levy.

“Eh?”, Levy looked at him with a very questionable expression. “Sure”, Levy humbly replied with a blush.

“I’ll get a request, wait here”, Gajeel walked towards the request board as Lily followed suit.

“Father”, Reina announced as she entered her father’s study.

“What is it Reina?”, Master Maru asked, removing the documents he was reading before she came. “Is everything alright?”

“Yes Father”, Reina replied.

“And Elizabeth?”, he asked.

“She needs time but I think she would be able to handle it”, Reina answered.

“Good, the last thing I want is for her to feel miserable for her rejection”, Master Maru said.

“True. It’s not that easy to forget something like that”, Reina replied.

“So, what is it that you’ve come here for?”, Master Maru asked.

“Oh, I was just going to ask your permission.....”, Reina hesitantly said.

“Permission? On what?”, Master Maru looked at her with interest.

“Elizabeth and I....are planning on visiting......HIM”, Reina replied. For that Master Maru’s eyes widened for he knows full well of what she’s asking of him.

“I see. When?”, Master Maru asked.

“This afternoon; Can we go?”, Reina asked again.

“Alright. I guess he deserves to know you two better”, he said but his face looks so and worrying. Reina, seeing her Father making such a face, thought of a better idea to ease his worry.

“Also, can I borrow Tetsuya to guard us?”, Reina winked at the man from the far corner of the room. Tetsuya looked like he was expecting this and just casually smirked at her.

“Okay but before you go, I have to give something to you”, Master Maru said.

“Natsu....”, Lucy groaned.

Natsu looked at his partner with sympathy and sighed. He kneeled on the ground and offered her another one of his service. Lucy gladly went over and secured herself by clasping both her hands past his neck as he ascended to the ground and hooking his hands on her legs.

“Lucy, you’re really abusing my kindness”, Natsu whined.

“Idiot, if I can still feel my feet I won’t have to ask you. Besides you lost the bet remember?”, Lucy pouted but deeply, she was happy.

“But Happy lost too”, Natsu pointed to Happy who is flying beside them.

“Yes but you’re the one who insisted so quit whining will you? If you don’t want to do this, you can let me down and leave me here”, Lucy challenged.

“Alright”, Natsu literally unhooked his hands and sat Lucy on a nearby fountain with her eyes wide and he was grinning at her expression.

“Don’t you dare”, Lucy threatened. Natsu just smirked at her.

Natsu just turned around and walked away from where he left her. Happy, knowing him for so long, followed suit.

“Idiot! Don’t tell me you’ll really leave me here!”, Lucy was tearing up to what she’s just witnessing. “Natsu!”

Natsu and Happy didn’t budge. They just kept walking.

“YOU IDIOT! FINE!”, Lucy shouted out with anger. She just turned around and looked at the other side of the road.

Her feet are really aching because of their accomplished mission. She had to stand for ten full hours while serving customers without a break while Natsu just stayed on the basement to fire up the stoves.  Their bet was simple; whoever gives up first will have to carry the winner all the way back to Magnolia on their backs. Meaning, one of them has to give the other a piggy back ride. Natsu lost because he fell asleep right before their time is up.

Lucy staggered as she leaned on walls to not put pressure on her aching feet.

“Darn it, I really have to rest this up on the wall when I get home. Idiot Natsu, I swear I won’t ever......”, Lucy took a wrong step and her feet gave up on her. She lost her balance and was about to fall to the ground when four pairs of hands (or paws) stopped her. “NATSU!”

“I was just teasing you Lucy”, Natsu shook his head with an annoyed tone of voice as he steadied her. “I never thought that you would take it seriously”, he kneeled in front of her with his back on hers.

“Hmph”, Lucy was definitely angry with him right now.

Knowing that Lucy was really pissed at them and has no intentions on taking his offer, Happy pushed her so she would stumble again but the difference this time, she landed safely on Natsu’s back and he stood before Lucy could complain.

“Sorry Lucy, don’t worry, when we got back, we’ll give you a foot massage”, Natsu said.

“Aye!”, Happy joined in.

“No thanks. The last time I let you two massaged my foot, it swelled the next day”, Lucy almost laughed at the memory.

“Haha, come on we didn’t massaged it that hard. You were groaning and moaning too”, Natsu laughed.

“Aye sir! Lucy has been too noisy all evening and the landlady thought you two were doing something perverted”, Happy laughed too.

“Idiots you almost killed my feet. You tortured it!”, Lucy barked back.

“Yeah, yeah, let’s go back now so we can do it again”, Natsu grinned.

“Aye sir!”

“No please, just leave me here! I don’t want to go with you two! Somebody help me!”

“Gihihihi!”

“You have visitors”, the guard said.

“Who could it be?”, the man inside the glass prison said. It was made so he could not use his magic.

“It is us, Uncle”, Elizabeth’s voice rang inside his cell.

“I see. So you two did come after all huh?”, Reimonbeth smiled at them.

“Of course”, Elizabeth said.

They talked, and laughed despite of barely knowing each other. The guard returned and told them that their visit is over.

“Ummm, Uncle, this...”, Reina showed him a necklace with an emblem on it.

“THAT....”, Reimonbeth’s eyes widened with disbelief.

“Father said to hand this to you no matter what. This is mother’s necklace isn’t it?”, Reina said.

“HOW? WHY?”, Reimonbeth asked.

“I think Mother wants you to have it. Please take it”, Reina handed it over to the guard and he passed it to him. In Reimonbeth’s hands, he looked at it with happiness.

“Thank you”, Reimonbeth said.

“It’s nothing......Can we...visit you again?”, Elizabeth asked.

“Yes please”, he said.

When Elizabeth, Tetsuya and Reina were about to go...

“Wait!”, Reimonbeth shouted out. “I have to warn you about something”, he said.

“What is it, Uncle?”, Reina asked with interest.

“Tell Fairy Tail and all the wizards. Warn them for me. Advent Ghoul wasn’t the only Independent Dark Guild there is. If the official guilds have the Ballam Alliance, we too have it. It’s called the Gallion Alliance. Tell Master Makarov to beware. The Gallion Alliance is moving”, Reimonbeth whispered slowly just for Reina to hear.

Reina’s eyes widened with fear. “What does that mean?”

“Go now. Be careful please. Don’t let them find you and Elizabeth. They must never know of your abilities you understand? Keep away from Fiore at all cost please! Be careful”, he said again before the doors closed prohibiting them from communicating much further.

“Sister? What did Uncle say?”, Elizabeth noticed her sister’s worry and fear.

“I have to go to Fairy Tail. Elizabeth, get ready, we have to leave immediately. Tetsuya, take her away from here fast and tell my Father to evacuate to the South. Elizabeth, I’ll explain everything later so please just go away from Magnolia as fast as you can”, Reina said. “Everyone is in danger”
