Fairy Tail: Next Generation - Volume IV

Chapter 7: The Fools and what they Forgot

"Where is he?"

Felicity knew it was the place she'd left Zailo before. She looked down and could see her bag sitting quietly in solitude by the tree, abandoned by its possessor and companion.

"I'm sorry..." Malcon mumbled shamefully.

"It's okay, you didn't mean to or anything." Felicity let out a puff of air as she let her hands be carried by her hips. "Now the question is, did someone take him, or did he go off on his own. Because both are very likely problems."

Felicity looked at her bare arms and shoulders, feeling a chill as a breeze pushed against her skin.

"Where's my jacket?" She muttered.

"I think he took it." Malcon stated, looking around the empty forest that had stolen a Zailo and a jacket.

"Well, maybe that's good." Malcon stated. "I doubt that a kidnapper would take some jacket he was laying on if they took it while he was sleeping, so he must have walked out with it himself."

"Maybe." Felicity nodded her head. "Yes. Let's think positive. Zailo is safe...unless he's found by someone else."

"The les go already!!" Malcon sang, snatching Felicity's bag as he began to fly.

"You're a little snarky cat." Felicity hummed. "I like that."

"Good, then I guess we'll make great friends."

Molly pushed her face into Sylvie's belly, nose first. She didn't quite fully understand why people put there faces into pregnant women's stomachs, but she'd seen it before and wanted to see what she'd been missing.

"Hmm..." She hummed into her stomach.

"Molly...you know that you aren't going to hear anything." Gillian sighed as she sat to Sylvie's right.

"Hear something?" Molly pulled her head back, and then sighed in a realization. "Oh...it makes sense now."

"I haven't been pregnant long..." Sylvie laughed, Laurie wrapping his arm around her. "So you aren't likely to hear anything."

"We're really happy for you guys." Lillian grinned. "You all just make a wonderful couple."

"First to marry from the new batch, eh?" Makarov snickered. "What's keeping your brother?"

Sylvie wrinkled her nose in disapproval. "No, I most definitely don't want to be related to that..."

Gillian rose an eyebrow. "That?"

Nashi was that. And that was in bed with her boyfriend in the early morning.

Now pipe down perverts. She just arrived in the early morning. No relations occurred.

He lived in his own apartment near the center of Magnolia. It was few blocks from Nashi's own apartment. And was just a bit smaller.

He woke up with half his face in his pillow as he heard a few snickers from his lover inches to his side. He slowly opened his eyes, looking to see the beautiful girl sitting crisscross on the bed with papers in her hand and a smile to her face.
