It's a dark night and I am waiting outside the guild in my regular blue outfit. Robin is on my shoulder talking to me about PinTail forest. I made a wish to know all about it and how the monsters there are. It was pretty useful information.
"Pin Tail forest is beautiful at night, the monsters aren't that powerful there is just a lot of them, which could be overwhelming. They also glow at night so it's easier to see them. I think that's why your pink haired friend wanted to go at this time." Ruka says.
"Maybe there is a little brain developing in that dense skull of his." I joke and smile.
"Boo." Natsu's voice is suddenly in my ear. I jump and squeak, I almost have a freaking heart attack.
"Natsu you idiot do you want to kill me before the mission?!" I yell.
He just smiles, and says "lets go!" This guy.
We walk to the train station, Natsu walking slower because of the fact it's a train. Thankfully for him, the train ride is only twenty five minutes long. I am also thankful for this short time.
"Why did we have to ride this stupid thing anyway?" He cries, his head in my lap.
"Because it's faster this way, you can do it." I reassure him.
"I wish Wendy was here so she could heal me or something, awww this sucks." He moans.
"Ten more minutes left, you can do it." I say calmingly, I realize my hands are in his hair, it's surprisingly soft and fluffy. He looks relaxed despite his motion sickness. "Wait Natsu! I can call Robin and wish for motion sickness to go away for the rest of the trip! I say, getting my key.
"Well do it woman!" He groans. I call out Robin, and it appears on my shoulder.
"How can I help you Ms. Lucy? You have 2 wishes left!" It chirps.
"I would like to make another wish Robin! Can you please cure Natsu with his motion sickness forever?" I ask.
"I can't do forever, because my powers aren't that strong, but I will make it last a month, will that do?" It asks.
"Of course! Thank you so much!" I smile.
"Alright Ms. Lucy!" It chirps, then it starts singing a beautiful melody, in the middle of the song Natsu looks a lot better, by the end of the song he looks like brand new. I thank Robin again and send it back.
"Thanks Lucy! I feel like new!" He hugs me and laughs.
"Your welcome Natsu!" I hug him back, he sets me down and looks at me for a while, I can't help but blush. But then he looks out the window, he was doing that thing again. He acts serious and looks at me for a moment.
"Wow, Lucy look at this!" He beckons me over. When I look, I see the forest and its beautiful lights, it's amazing. It's almost hard to believe that thing is full of monsters.
"Wow! I can't believe it!" I gasp.
"Were going to fight monsters too! This is great, one of the best jobs ever!" He smiles. Then he grabs my hand and drags me out of the train as soon as it comes to a stop.
I look at the job request in my hand, they say their farm is to the east of the forest and it says to follow a path. We should have no trouble finding it.Then I realize something.
"Natsu, how are we going to keep those monsters away forever?" I ask him as I stop walking.
"We fight them. Duh, Lucy I thought you were smarter than that." He says, bonking my head with his fist. I scoff and push his hand away.
"Yeah I know that, but after we are done with those monsters, more will come right? Once we leave more will come, more will always come!" I say, shaking my head
"Then we will kill ALL of them!" He says, his fist catching fire. THIS GUY.
"Baka! We would need the whole guild to wipe out that whole monster population, not even then could we do it!"
"Well what else can we do?" He says, shrugging.
"Not...that." I say. I try to think of a solution.
"Why don't you ask Robin?" He asks, pointing at my keys.
"Natsu, you idiotic genius!" I say pointing at him and grabbing my keys.
"How does that work?" He says mumbling to himself. I bring out Robin.
"Hello Ms. Lucy, you only have 1 wish left for today!" It tweets. Flying to my shoulder.
"Robin, would you have the power to wipe out the whole monster population in this forest?" I ask, not really expecting it to.
"No Ms. Lucy, since my power only exceeds your by a little bit. But I heard your conversation with the pink haired boy and I could remove monsters from a specific area for a long period of time." It suggests, like the freaking little mastermind it is.
"That's perfect! Again thank you for your help, I will call you again when we reach the place alright?" I say, smiling. Then I realize we haven't moved from the train station, and it was starting to get light again. I look at Natsu, who was staring at me and Robins conversation this whole time.
"Since it's starting to get light again and we see the monsters better in the dark I think we should stay in town for the day okay?" I say, crossing my arms.
"But doesn't it take a day and a half to get there? We would still have to fight them during the day at some point or another." He says, crossing his arms as well.
"Well it was your idea to start here at night so lets do it at night." I order. "Besides, i'm hungry, lets go eat at some place cheap." I start walking towards the town, and Natsu trails behind me.
"Good idea Lucy, I could use something to eat." He says, rubbing his stomach.
"Like always." I say, nudging him with my elbow. The whole way to the nearest restaurant we talked and talked. He never failed to keep me entertained. I guess that's another reason why I like him, wait, crap.
