Gray's POV
I noticed Gajeel and Natsu outside talking and Natsu looked kinda sad while he was talking. Maybe he did something wrong and Gajeel was scolding him? No... Natsu does stuff wrong, but no one ever scolds him besides the master. Also its been twenty minutes since Lyon was in Makarov's office, god they take so long.

"Finally keeping on clothes Gray" Cana taunted, but she was surprisingly right. I didn't take off my clothes at all. I felt weak and sick, but how come I wasn't stripping like I normally do?

"There's a first for everything" I say and flashed a fake smile to her. I managed to fool everyone in the guild with my fake smiles, but the only two who I can't is Master and Natsu. Natsu always knows when I fake a smile and Master never really sees me smile or fake smile. I guess Natsu told him to be cautions around me when I smile.

I got up and told Erza I was going to head to my house and pack for the job and Erza just smiled and told me that it was a good idea to do that the day before which means we leave tomorrow. When I walked outside Natsu and Gajeel where heading back in when all of a sudden I felt a sharp pain in my lower left side right where the scar is I have from Ultear. I noticed that my hand was stained red... Blood. I was bleeding.

I looked back and noticed I hadn't left the steps of the guild, but noticed the doors where open just enough where I can see a druken Cana, Mirajane yelling at Laxus and the Thunder Legion and then Natsu talking to Gajeel. Of course then there was Erza who I think was looking at a photo Freedus painted or she was posing for a photo that Freedus was painting. However I knew if I didn't leave soon someone was going to know something was wrong and boy do I regret running into these people.

While I was walking the streets I ran into the Twin dragon slayers Sting and Rouge. Turns out the dragon slayers where all going over to Natsu's house tonight which means they probably had something to talk about. However I barely heard half the words because I was to busy trying to freeze over the scar Ultear left that was now bleeding and trying to keep my balance all at the same time.

"Gray!" I heard a voice yell, but I ran to my home before they could see me in the condition I was in.

Happy's POV
Natsu sent me on a pretty bizarre quest and that was to see if Gray acted funny when I called his name and if he did I had to report back to the guild and tell him. Which kinda now leaves me in the middle of the street with Sting and Rouge who saw the same thing I did.

"Excuse me fellas. I now have to head back to Natsu and tell him exactly how Gray reacted when I called his name" I said to the twin dragon slayers.

"Sure thing Happy" Sting said and then looked at Rouge.

"Want us to check on Gray?" Rouge asked.

"I have a better idea. Come to the guild with me and explain what you saw when Gray was talking to you guys" I said.

I can tell I sparked some interest in the boys, but to me it seemed like they where more concerned about Gray. I began to think for a few seconds 'Gray could be seriously hurt and dying. I guess it would be safe to have Sting and Rouge check on him when I tell Natsu how he reacted'. I then looked back and gave them a nod showing them that it was okay to go after Gray.

They took off in the same direction Gray did while I flew as fast as I could back to the guild to tell Natsu what had happened and who I ran into. I was actually really more concerned about Gray more than a stupid request, but Natsu is my friend and care taker so it's kinda hard to hate the guy.
