"hey you came!" elfman greeted the girls as they entered the ballroom, their eyes wide with excitement and amazement as they looked around the place. it was obvious that this was their first time in such a grand palace, completely enthralled by the beauty and decor of the room.
"huh? natsu's not with you?" gray questioned, joining the group.
"come to think of it, i haven't seen him." gajeel chimed in, seeming to notice the absence of their boisterous dragon slayer.
"maya's missing too." erza added, walking over to the fairy tail wizards as they glanced around the room for the pair.
"she said she would pick up her things from sabertooth's inn this morning, but i haven't seen her since." lucy admitted.

"how much longer are you gonna sleep!? get your lazy butt up!"
"sanna~" maya whined, rubbing her behind as she was now fully awake and on the floor. it was true though, over the past few days after having defeated future rogue and the dragons, maya was practically out cold. even when she was awake with the others, she was still half asleep, unable to regain any energy that she had used up during the battle.
