-Natsu's Pov-
*yawn* well, I slept nice last night after that star gazing... although I'm still wondering who that cloaked person is..Ah whatever! Time to get some breakfast. So I get up from the bed and went to wash my face in the bathroom.I took a shower then I put on a red shirt with dragon scale designs on the sleeves, a dark pair of sunglasses, black jeans and a black jacket with red flame designs on the bottom that I tied around my waist.
I went to check if Jellal was awake, and sure enough, he was. He was texting someone on his communication lacrima and I could tell he was happy talking to whoever it was. I cleared my throat to catch his attention.
N: Are the two guys awake yet?
J: Yeah. They texted me a few minutes ago they're getting ready.
N: Alright then.
I stood up and went to my bed. I woke up Happy who was mumbling something about fish then I fixed up the bed. I went outside and was about to knock on the door when it opened, revealing Ice Freak and Screw Head.
GF&GR: Mornin'
N: Morning too and let's go have some breakfast.
**time skip brought to you by breakfast food fight**
N: that was some nice food..
J: yes it was but we had to pay J350,000 to fix the damage. It's just the 2nd official day of your vacation and we've already spent almost a million jewels.
N: Sorry... anyways, let's go to the plaza and see their kingdom. I think they're having a festival or something.
**At the Fest brought to you by Misaki's ghost**
This place looks really fun! There's lanterns with suns, moons and stars everywhere and everyone are dancing and having fun.
N: we arrived right on time huh. But what are they celebrating for?
GR: I think it was the princess' 18th birthday or somethin'. I heard she was gonna be marrying a prince chosen by her father.
GF: well that sucks... do you know who this princess is, Jellal?
J: No, but I think her father is a very strict king, and this is probably the first celebration in this place since the Queen died and that was 13 years ago.
N: Oh... she sounds pretty interesting. Anyways, who were you texting this morning, Jellal?
I smirked and noticed a slight tint of pink on his cheeks.
J: She was a friend of mine from my childhood and she says that she works for the army in this kingdom.
N: Okay then...
I was still smirking but I put the subject down, for now.
Anyways, we headed to the plaza and it was a circular one (A/N think of plaza in Tangled). I told the guys that we'd meet up in front of the hotel in two hours and everyone can enjoy themselves.As for me, I went around the kingdom and ended up in Daphne's Magic Shop. I found the dragon key and asked the shopkeeper what kind of magic it was used for. She told me it was for Celestial Spirit magic and it was a rare key. Although I don't really know if it was since it's in a store like this. I bought it for J200,000 and kept it in a red box with gold lining and put it in my pocket. I went around the shop and I saw a book with the title, "Celestial Kingdom History". I wasn't really fond of reading, but since it seems knowledgeable and cheap, I bought it too. Then I found a book with a red leather cover and a golden lining. There was a dragon's face on the cover and its eyes seem to glow red. I asked the shopkeeper what it was and she told me it was a Fire Dragon Spellbook, so I bought it.
I went outside and went to the hotel for a bit and put the stuff I bought in my bag. Then I strolled around and came to a park. It was a pretty empty, but clean park. There was a fountain in the middle and benches around the fountain.
I sat down on one of the benches and looked up at the sky... Who was that person I bumped into and who was that princess? Well, whoever they were, I might meet them in the celebration. I only have around 30 minutes left so I went to the hotel.
**time skip brought to you by Gray's stripping**
So I met up with the guys and we decided to go to the fest. It's just 5 PM but it's quite dark already. The lanterns were lit up and there were stalls everywere selling food, souvenirs, toys, and some game booths.I went up to Gray and pointed to the Dart Game Booth. I challenged him to a battle. The one who loses will wear a chicken suit for a day when we come back. Well, since both of us are of the dragon race, we have pretty sharp senses. But I have better sense than he does. So when I threw the darts, 2 landed in the middle and 1 landed in the area around the middle.
Gray got 1 dart in the middle and the 2 others were at the area around the middle.
N: Take that, Ice Princess. Hope you got BURN HEAL.
GF: Dammit, I almost got it...
N: Almost is never enough, boi.Since I got 2 bull's eyes, I got 2 prizes of my pick. So I chose a small, red, dragon plushie and a fire sword. Pretty neat.
Gray, however, took an Ice Bow and he tested it out on me. It hurt a bit since he shot it at point blank range, but I melted the ice with my fire sword.
We played around in different stalls and bought snacks. I checked my communication lacrima, and it was already 7PM.
N: We should go to the fest, it's already 7.
J: I think the princess will be showed tonight... I heard she rarely gets to go outside.So we all started walking, but then a cloaked person said, "outta the way," and their scent seemed familiar. They were running so I didn't really see their face, but depending on the voice, I'd say it's a girl.
**time skip brought to you by Gajeel chewing on some metal scraps**
Apparently, the princess wasn't showed because they said she had some business to attend to. Although I didn't really care, because I had fun and it's been a while. I guess I'll be enjoying my stay here.Since all of us were already full, we took a shower and got changed. I just slept with a shirt and my boxers on but I woke up at 1 AM. After that, I can't really sleep so I decided to read the Celestial Kingdom History book I bought.
It showed up kings, queens, princes and princesses from the founding of the kingdom a few centuries back and what they've done and so on. I went to the current Royal Family and it turns out that the Queen got killed in the Civil War... Quite weird since I've never really heard of this war before.
Anyways, I read quite a lot so I laid there on bed, but I forgot to read about the princess so I picked up the book and read it again. There it said that the princess was a beautiful blond-haired maiden with hazel brown eyes. I felt a bit sad for her because she's been in the palace for more than a decade.
Then I read the name of the princess... it was peculiarly familiar...
Lucy Heartfilia
