Levy's P.O.V

Whilst Lu-Chan was figuring out how to get inside from the window upstairs I snuck away downstairs to get in that way. I jumped down in front of the door looked it over, a small lock on the door and it was no problem for me, I could pick almost any lock...except magic ones. I pulled out some of the wires I usually use for this and slotted some in, twisting them for a few seconds until I heard a satisfying click and the door slowly opened, letting a stream of moonlight fade into the hallway, casting shadows and lights on pieces of furniture. I slipped into the house and peeked round the door, A large black haired man with various piercings was lying on the couch, a quater full bowl of popcorn on the floor near him with the odd pieces of corn scattered around the floor. I slinked past him, being careful not to alert him to my presence and slipped into the kitchen. The soft moonlight danced along the counter as it leaked through the blinds and illuminated some of the room. I knew checking in here for the key was worthless but we needed food for camping anyway.

I opened the fridge and gazed at its contents, food. Lots of it. What where these people if they could eat so much food by themselves? I shook my head and stored some into a bottomless bag before closing it and checking the cupboard's. I think it was just me but I don't think it'll be in here. I started searching the dining room unaware of what was happening in the living room.

Gajeel's P.O.V

I heard the sound of lock picks in the door and quickly shut my eyes, relying completely on my dragon senses to help me out. The soft pitter patter of feet found its way to my ears and I was just able to hear it, even with my dragon senses. I sniffed quietly and the scent of ink and paper filled my nose, I could instantly tell the thief was female, and judging from my senses her freind must be upstairs with Natsu, they didn't know what was gonna hit them.. Gehe!

The small thief turned toward the kitchen and I cracked open my eyes slightly. The moonlight shone on her cloak, making it glow. She looked around the kitchen, quietly opening cupboards and drawers barely making any noise, even her breathing was almost dead silent. I watched her as she walked over to the fridge and opened it, the light of the fridge illuminating the visible parts of her face. My blood boiled in anger as I watched what she was doing, there was no way that I would let us steal our food... 'Natsu is going to blow a fuse again....Gehe.' I thought to myself as she shoveled food into the bag, only taking half of it. I raised my brow in confusion, she only took half? We're 'sleeping' and she still only took half the food?

I shut my eyes quickly as she came back into the room, before quickly turning and entering the dining room. I shrugged and thought of my master plan, when she comes back I'll get her.
I heard some things shifting around in the dining room and after some time the quiet footsteps returned to the living room, where I am. I tried to keep breathing naturally because the tension in the air was so thick you could cut it with a knife. The figure started to walk out the door to the hall way when I attacked. "Iron Dragons Club!" My arm extended into a long pole that headed for their back, but without turning around they swiftly dodged to the left, my attack narrowly missing their head. Crap.... I cursed inside my head, this would lead to a battle and that would take forever. The figure brings up their arms and is about to attack when we hear a crash from upstairs, her head snaps towards the stairs and I punch her, sending her crashing into the hallways opposite wall, I observed as she let out a groan in pain and stood to her feet, looks like this one was weak against direct attacks and was more stealth. 

Lucy's P.O.V

I heard a crash from downstairs and quickly thought about Levy, Was she ok? Is she hurt? My thoughts wondered over this so I was temporarily distracted. I felt a burning sensation and pain in my stomach and then realised I had just been punched whilst I was not paying attention. "It's a bad idea to get distracted in a fight." The guy in front of me stated with a smug smile on his face...He had pink hair....pfft... I laughed inside my head before snapping back to the action and getting into a fighting stance, wincing at the burning sensation I flicked out my whip and cracked it across the floor sending small sparks into the space around it. I saw the guy raise an eyebrow and I sighed, why did people always think weird stuff when I revealed my common weapon was a whip? "Fire dragons Fire fist!" I jumped out of the way of an attack and wrapped the whip around his wrist and with a flick of my own I sent him crashing into walls, knocking over furniture and items on the way, leaving large cracks in the walls. He groaned in pain as I flung him into a wall and retracted my whip before wrapping it around Gemini's box. I could hear crashing from downstairs and shouted out into the house. "Plan 265, Action!" I yelled and ran downstairs, Levy was already waiting at the back door and we ran out into the garden, the house bordered the woods so escape would be easy...or so we thought. I was further ahead so I crashed into a rune wall. Great, Just flipping Great. I sighed and looked over at Levy. "Plan 345, Rune Walls." She nodded and I turned round to face the two dragon slayers who were standing by the back door. I sighed, this key better be worth the effort.

No-One's P.O.V

On one end of the garden stood the dragon slayer princes, and on the other stood the two cloaked thieves, one standing in front of the other who was crouched by the rune wall, her hands moving over it so fast they were a blur. The other got into a fighting position at the same time as the dragon princes, who were growling and watching the thieves. "Just give up already, those runes will take a while to be decoded." Gajeel scoffed but the figure took no notice of his words and pulled out 3 celestial keys, The dragon slayers jaws dropped, It was impossible to open 3 gates at once! The figure whispered some words and a maid, sheep and an orange haired guy with cat ears appeared, the figure didn't even break a sweat. "My Darling, I missed you so much!" The lion guy stated and put his hand on the girls shoulder, and then she punched him, the dragon slayers sweatdropped, wasn't she supposed to be fighting Us, not her spirits? The dragon slayers thought and shook their heads, what a weird spirit. 

The celestial spirits charged at the slayers and as they furiously fended off  their attacks the other finished off the final part of the runes, making the letters fade away. The taller girl ran off to her and lifted her up to clib the wall, but she hadn't realised that her spirits were being defeated as she still had her back turned to help up her friend climb the slippy surface of the marble wall but eventually the girl jumped over the wall and disappeared into the dense forest. The elder backed up from the wall and ran towards it, pushing up off it and grabbing the top, quikly hoisting her legs up and she was about to jump off of the wall when Natsu grabbed the bottom corner of her cloak.
"And where are you going? I'm not letting go of you, youc criminal!" Natsu yelled and he tightened his grip on the coak, trying to pull the girl off the wall. the girl stuggled and tried to stay on the wall before latching onto a thick overhanging branch with her left arm and something shiny glittered in her right hand... RIIIIIIIP! she swung her arm quickly and cut off the piece of cloak Natsu was gripping, the force she used to tear through the thick material sent the sharp object flying out of her hand and it embedded itself in the dirt with the scrap of fabric.

Natsu's P.O.V

I watched as the hooded figure swung away on the branches and  I walked over to the scrap of fabric, this girl must've been stupid, or desperate. She knew we were dragon slayers, so she must've known about our ability to smell, right? A small beam of moonlight shone on the long wavy grass and a silver sparkle caught my eye, lying in the ground was a small silver dagger, with gold patterns. I picked it up and moved my hand over the patterns, it was smooth and well kept, suddenly and idea stuck me (I know, OOC Natsu, deal with it.) I positioned the dagger so I could see the hilt and looked at the bottom of it, and there where two letters engraved there. 

'L.H'
