No magic? No problem

Chapter 3

-3'rd person POV-

The pink haired girl pushes the dragon slayer and small exceed onto the train despite all the protest from the dragon slayer. As they get on the train the man turns green just at the thought of being in a moving vehicle makes him sick. Once the girl settles into the seat with the exceed the dragon slayer falls into a heap next to her as the train has started moving. His head rests on her lap as he snores quietly through the ride. Luna plays with is hair without realizing it as she stares out the window watch the earth as it passes by. All the colors a blur to her as her eyes begin to fill with tears. She has no idea why tears are rolling down her face, but she wipes them away. The small exceeds says nothing as she hugs her holding her close so she can feel her warm embrace. Gale being able to smell the new scent of salty water groans and opens his eyes rubbing the as he rolls onto his back he crimson eyes looking up at Luna's emerald ones.

"Something the matter?" He asks

"No." Was all she could give

"What's with the tears?"

She just shrugs her shoulders truly not know why tears are forming in her eyes and falling from her cheeks. The dragon slayer sits himself up his face still green and his stomach still churning. He tries to push his motion sickness aside to help his best friend who's tears are now falling faster. As her tears fall faster the train moves slower. Luna wipes her tears and puts a smile on her face standing up and walking out of the train. Gale is confused by his partner's actions but walks after her as fast as he can desperate to get off the moving steel death trap. Once off the train, he wraps his arm around Luna's waist pulling her off to the side Lily in her arms with a confused look on her face. He finds a spot where they can talk in private. He turns the girl to face him a mad protective look.

"Alright, I want to know what's up. You were crying on the train and I want to know why." He says

"I don't know. I really don't know I was just looking outside the train watching the earth go by and playing with your hair and all of a sudden I was crying. I think my emotions are finally catching up with me." She says

"Well, I'm not surprised the last 24 hours were a bit rough for you." Was his reply

"Ummm, it might be a bit longer than that..." She trails off

"Well, how long have you been denying your emotions?"

"Around twelve years."

Her answer shocks the dragon slayer and the exceed as the both look at her in shock as she reads the flyer over and over again trying to avoid their gazes. She start's to walk away her shoulders straight and her mind focused the dragon slayer follows after her with the exceed on his head. They make their way to the house which the owner of the request lives the exceed making silly jokes and talking with the pink haired girl making her smile leaving the dragon slayer along with his thoughts which unlike his father aren't on eating or his wife.

Twelve years. Since she was three she's felt like an outcast. A child so small has pushed her emotions down inside her. No one should ever have to go through that...

His thoughts are cut short when one his companions let out a shriek like a sixth sense he instantly moves in front of the two blocking them from the... frog? He's confused as to why his friend screamed at the tiny creature so he looks back to them their faces amused and they are both holding in laughs.

"What...?" He asks clearly confused

Both the females bust out laughing the exceed falling off the head of Luna as she doubles over holder her stomach. Tears form in her eyes as she laughs harder nearly falling to her knees. Lily rolls on the ground her paws covering her mouth trying to keep more laughs from escaping but is failing.
