Chapter 25: Erza's Plans

-Erza P. O. V.-

After Minerva punished Lector, and by punished I mean let Millianna smother him in a love hug, we continued eating breakfast.

Soon, Kagura joined us and ate some waffles.

I like waffles.

After we were all finished, I stood up. "Okay, meatbags! Let's get this show on the road!"

They all gave me confused looks, except Minerva. We've been pretty in sync lately.

Then again, we are both lieutenants working under the shipping queen, General Mirajane Strauss.

"What'chu talkin' 'bout, Erza?" Kagura asked.

"Follow me." I led them to the main part of the guild hall. Several tables had things on them, but they were covered by white cloths.

"Erza... Why am I suddenly terrified of what you're planning?" Yukino asked, timidly.

"Oh, don't worry. Everything on these tables will be used tonight. Don't you dare touch them."

"Then... can we go do whatever for the rest of the day?" Sting asked.

"You're not getting away that easy, Lightbulb. I got plans for all of you."

I pulled two vouchers out of my pocket. I glanced at them, making sure they were the right ones.

"Here." I handed the two slips of paper to Sting and Yukino. "You two are going to get ice cream."

"Oh, I love ice cream!" They both said, simultaneously.

"A match made in heaven." Minerva said.

"Now, get going." I told them. The two walked out the doors.

Next, I pulled another piece of paper. I checked it. Yup, the pass.

"Here." I gave Kagura the paper. "You and Rogue can go to the beach today. That's an all day pass for the boardwalk. Knock yourselves out, lovebirds!"

Rogue chuckled as Kagura folded the paper up. "We will. Let's go, Kagura." The two walked out the door.

"Okay, let's see. Millianna, take this." I pulled another paper out of my pocket. This one, I knew what it was from a glance. Because it has a big cartoon fish on it.

"You can go get some free fish at the fish market."

"I love fish! Thank you, Erzy!" She bounced on her heels.

"Hey, I'm coming too! I love me some good fish!" Orga said.

"We have a ticket for any ten fish, Orga!" Millianna cheered.

 Orga started singing. "We have a golden ticket! We got a golden twinkle in our eyes!"

"I never thought my life would be, anything but payed fish, you see. But suddenly now, the fish is free. Let's get on our way!" Millianna finished the song.

Orga and Millianna were almost like a child with his excited nature. The two ran out the door chanting 'fishy fishy' over and over like they just won the lottery. Lector and Frosch were riding on Orga's shoulders, going along for the ride and the fish.

"Millianna watches a lot of old movies." Risley said.

"I figured. Anyway, Beth, Risely. Here you go." I gave them two spa vouchers. "I could only get two. Sorry, Arana."

"It's fine, Erza. I wanted to spend time with someone else today." Arana shrugged off the notion.

"Thanks, Erza." The two mermaids left.

That left me, Minerva, Rufus, Arana, Lucy, and Dobengal.

The spy team.

"Okay, time to execute Operation: Vanilla Ice, Cream and Operation: Beach Boardwalk" I said, pulling two walkie talkies out of my breasts. "See, Lucy? I told you they're useful!"

Minerva took one of the talkies as Lucy ignored my comment.

Lucy, Arana, and Dobengal looked confused. "What's going on?" Dobengal asked.

"We're going to spy on the StingYu and Rogura dates. Minerva, you get Lucy. Arana, you and ninja boy are with me."

"Why am I going?" Dobengal asked.

"Cause ninjas are sneaky! Sting's a dragonslayer, we need someone to help boost our stealthy factor. Minerva is fine on her own, that's why she's watching over Lucy."

"You make it sound like I'm getting a babysitter." Lucy complained. "Why would I agree to this?"

Minerva smirked. "You can't tell me you don't want to watch Sting and Yukino have an adorable, super cheesy, super cliche, super fluffy ice cream date?"

Rufus nodded. "Yes, I want to see this, too. I can't remember Sting and Yukino ever going on a date before."

Lucy thought for a moment. "Count me in."

"I'm in too." Arana said. "We're going after Rogue and Kagura, right? I want to see how Kagura is on a date. Dobengal, let's hit this!"

Dobengal pumped his fist. "Yeah! I'm getting fired up now!"

I smiled. "Okay, real quick. Before we split up, we need to go over our code names."

"Oh dear." Lucy face palmed.

"You will address me as 'Scarlet'."

"Well, that's pretty normal. This might not be so bad." Lucy said, cheering up.

"Lucy will be known as 'Boobs McKenzie.'"

"I spoke too soon..."

"Rufus will be known as 'Time Lord.'"

"How fitting." He appeared to like his code name.

"Dobengal shall be dubbed 'Ninth Grade Ninja'."

"I'm stuck with that now, aren't I?"

Arana nodded, patting his back.

"My original code name for Arana was 'Spiderwoman,' but that's way too straightforward."

"Says the woman who named herself after her already well known name..." Lucy mumbled.

"But, I decided against that. I thought the most fitting name for a web spinner would be 'Muffet.'"

"Erza, you need to stop playing video games." Lucy told me.

"There is nothing wrong with any of the games I play! I love the series about the blue porcupine yelling and pointing at people and the game that fills me with determination!"

Lucy facepalmed.

"Anyway. Lastly, Minerva. Her name is 'Tigress.'"

"I feel like I got the short end of the stick here..." Lucy sighed.

"Stop complaining, Boobs McKenzie, and let's go. Time Lord, let's roll!" Minerva was already in the spirit. The three of them left the guild. I turned to my partners.

"Well, are you guys ready? Ninth Grade Ninja? Muffet?"

They looked at each other. "Can we still... let's say, 'play' if there's any chances?" Arana asked.

Dobengal blushed. I'm glad he decided to take his mask off. He seems more friendly.

I gave them a thumbs up. "Of course! I'll need to report back to Mira later and tell her that DoRana is a complete success!"

We all left the guild together.

I have a good feeling about this!
