Karissa admired the passing scenery as she sat atop a moving tree that traveled miles so fast. She was sitting with Gray while the others expressed their own awe and excitement at being transported in such a way.
They were currently on their way to the Sun Village as per the request of Warrod Sequen the Wizard Saint.
At first, it was only Natsu, Gray and Karissa traveling on their own. She was capable of mediating the fight in between the two mostly because of a threat she laid on the table.
She promised them that she would head off on her own if they stopped and argued on their way, leaving them lost without a map while she proceeded onward to the destination and finish whatever the Wizard Saint would ask of her.
And if Erza and Makarov heard that they didn't show up when they were specifically asked to...
...
...
...
Natsu and Gray stopped arguing with each other when they noticed that Karissa had disappeared in front of them. Gray and Karissa were the ones who were usually in charge of the map but for some reason she insisted that she be the one to hold it on the way there.
"... Where did she go?" Happy asked from his spot next to Natsu.
"SHE DITCHED US?!" Natsu shouted before running off and using his nose as a compass. Gray was hot on his heels, trying to recall just when she freaking vanished from their sights.
They eventually found her walking leisurely at her own pace while drinking mango juice from a box.
"What's the big idea, Karissa?" Natsu complained. "You just left us in the dust!"
Karissa stopped walking and slowly turned around to face the two guys. At first she sported a flat expression until she sipped from her straw and plastered a smile on her face, appearing innocent. "I just thought you two wanted to skip out and let me do all the work. I have no problem with that." She chuckled softly. "Don't worry, I'll be sure to tell Master Makarov, Erza, and the Wizard Saint that you two had more important things to do." Then she smirked. "I'm sure they won't hold it against you. I promise I'll handle it all by myself."
Natsu, Gray and Happy sweat dropped at the hidden message behind her words.
"Got it." The two said in unison.
"Looks like you don't get special treatment either, Gray." Happy deadpanned, causing the ice mage to shoot him a glare before taking a spot next to Karissa.
...
...
...
Well, that was more than enough to have them follow after her, especially when she held the map.
It didn't stop them from arguing but it did the trick have them keep following. Of course, they had moments of being civilized when she needed their input on where to turn next because the map was confusing her.
