Fire & Ice (Fairy Tail Next Generation) DISCONTINUED

Chapter 7: You Asshole

Natsumi's POV:

~~2 months later~~

"I'm so bored!" Gigi shouted from my right followed by a groan from Yuki to my left, "Then why don't you go on a job?" I suggested while taking a sip from my soda, my eyes glued to my phone.

These past two months of searching have been much better compared to the first two weeks. Jakurou, Tsubame and Reiki were mainly on the info search, Reiki asked Lyon and Jura over at Lamia Scale to help get some sort of information on Evan, and Jakurou and Tsubame have been searching like crazy. Jakurou stays in the guild and helps his Mom with the written info while Tsubame, along with Sting and Rogue, ask around the capital.

Matskuni and I search from the air with some help from Lucas and Chase and Layla and Star. I've been going on missions all over Fiore to see if I can get something from the other cities.

At the moment, I'm taking a rest in the guild and also texting Reiki. At the table with me was Layla, Gigi and Yuki, Grant and Justin, and Ellie and Jackson.

"Hey Gigi," Yuki asked turning to her, "Where's your brother? I haven't seen him around today."

"Yeah, where is Gale anyway?" Jackson asked joining in on the conversation, we all then turned to her in expectation. She grabbed her chin in thought.

"If I remember correctly," she started and closed her eyes with a raised brow, "He went on a mission with Kennedy early this morning."

"Just the two of them?", asked Ellie skeptically, a smirk appearing on her lips. Gigi nodded in response, "Ohoho~ Since when are they so close?" Ellie asked in curiosity the smirk never leaving her lips.

"Oh boy." I muttered, Jackson held a cautious expression, "Ellie, what are you thinking?" he asked in worry. Ellie just started laughing, a dark aura appearing around her. The Fullbuster twins and Layla scooted away from her, a sigh escaped my lips.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present Matchmaker Apprentice #1. Miss Ellie Fernandez is one of Fairy Tail's elusive 'shippers'. Who are the others, you may ask? She's walking over here right now.

"What's this I hear about Gale and Kennedy?" asked Nova slyly aka Matchmaker Apprentice #2. Ellie snickered and looked up at her from her seat, "We've got ourselves a new ship Nova." she said with a smirk.

You may be wondering, 'If they're apprentices, then who's the one teaching them?', well, its none other than the She Devil herself. The one and only Mirajane Straus. I'm pretty sure half of you saw that coming, huh?

Accompanied by Reiki, these four ladies are the ones whom have given me and a certain Fullbuster hell on a specific topic. I don't need to say it, right? Good.

I snuck a glance at Grant only to see he had been staring at me from the corner of his eye and I quickly looked away, focusing my vision back to my phone.

Why the hell was he staring at me?!?

I thought about telling Reiki but then immediately realised that was a horrible idea, so I brushed it off then stood up to check out the request board. I noticed Layla was eyeing me from afar, she's been keeping a close eye on me since my...uhm....episode from two months ago.

I was looking at the requests when a specific one caught my eye. There was just one itsy bitsy little problem...

...I can't reach...
