In the Fairy Tailed guild, located in a town known as Magnolia. Sat a pink haired teen, with a pair of pink ears and a matching tail to follow, sat on the floor with his knees to his chest. Casting s gloomy aura around him. Many of the members looked at him sympathetically, at the poor dragon slayer prediction.

"Poor Natsu..." The blonde haired celestial wizard commented, everyone around her nodding in agreement, except for a certain iron dragon slayer who could care less about the salamander sulking on the floor. Natsu had his back turned to everyone, that only the wall he stared holes into could see his face. Gajeel slightly grinned finding the situation to be amusing, as did a few others in the guild hall. Gray stared at his pink haired rival finding the situation just as amusing as Gajeel, however Gray thought of the situation and still felt just as sympathetic towards Natsu after realizing something. He could have just as easily become the victim to the object attached to Natsu.

"Hey you damn pyro, stop sulking so much. Levy and Erza will figure it out" Gray shouted to the other teen. Everyone watched out of curiosity to see if Natsu would respond to Grays taunt, yet still encouragement. Natsu twisted his head to the side slightly allowing everyone to see his face and what they saw, no one expected. Natsu's face was curved into a sad pout. Making him seem as if someone had kicked a puppy, or kitten in his case.

Some of the females in the guild instantly cooed at Natsu. Finding the face, with the added bonus of the tail and ears to be an over load of cuteness.

Natsu looked back to the wall in a continuation of staring holes at the wall. Feeling annoyed by Natsu's actions, Gray stood from his seat and walked over to the other wizard. Some watched while others continued to chat amongst themselves. Laxus and the Thunder Legion spare a glance towards the two and watch in interest. Laxus turn around in his chair at the bar, while the other three turned around, since they stood behind Laxus to talk.

"Hello is anyone home in that dense skull of yours?" Gray asked tauntingly at Natsu, to at least try getting him out of his gloomy state. Gray began to poke around Natsu, attempting to annoy him into a fight at the least but he only continued to sulk. Gray stood behind Natsu with his arms crossed, thinking of what he could do. Then something caught his eye. He looked down towards the lower part of Natsu back, catching the attention of everyone who was watching.

Gray couldn't help but wonder what the tail felt like. Considering the tail was to be an object yet it moved according to what Natsu thought and felt. Not to mention how the pink haired teen reacted to harshly grabbing it earlier. He began to watch the tail swish back and forth in a flicking motion. That to a point, he almost felt like he could sit and watch it do that all day.

Gray reached out and grasped the fluffy pink tail in his hands. Causing it and Natsu to go completely still in movement. Natsu's body stiffened as he turned his head back to Gray in a almost robot style. Natsu's face clearly spelled pain as Gray continued to clutch the sensitive tail in his hand.

Seeing a facial change in Natsu, Gray let the tail go. Just as he did Natsu pounced onto Gray making them fall to the ground. Both teens wrestled around on the floor sending amusement around the guild.

"What the hell ice princess?!" Natsu growled out towards Gray. Gray fought back pushing Natsu off of him so easily it caught him off guard. Natsu went flying back into the bar counter and chairs causing the people near by to question what was wrong with the dragon slayer.

"Oi Natsu are you okay" Gray asked, genuinely worried for his rival and friend. Not expecting the pink haired teen to fly off him so easily when he pushed him.
