"WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE'S GONE?!?" 

"Keep your voice down, Arey, we have clients here talking to the master." Mirajane hushed, putting her index finger to her lips. The guild was packed with it's wizards drinking booze and chowing down on Mira's special dessert, strawberry cake. The guild hall was pretty noisy by itself, but with Arey's exclamation, things got pretty quiet to listen into her frustration. "Natsu and Happy took off this morning to Hargeon after hearing something about a dragon being there." 

"FOR REAL?!? AND THEY LEFT ME BEHIND?!?" 

"Unfortunately, that seems to be the case. I'm sorry, but will you please lower your voice now? You're making the clients uncomfortable." Mira pleaded. The beautiful white-haired wizard wearing the pink summer gown gave Arey a gentle smile from her pale pink lips. Her blue eyes remained covered by her pale eyelids to make herself appear more innocent than everyone knew she really was. 

Arey, the dirty blonde wizard with a strange iconic marking over her left eye on her pale skin like Mirajane's, leaned backwards and placed her hands behind her head and sighed with frustration. "Mira, why didn't you come wake me up?" she whined. 

"You need your rest, Arey. You work all day with the boys and you never give your body the rest it needs, so I figured I'd let you sleep in." Mira grinned. 

"But....a dragon!" Arey exclaimed once more.

"I know, and that's why I had Elfman go find out about this so-called "dragon" in Hargeon that doesn't seem to be causing much of a ruckus by the Magic Counsel." she replied. 

Arey let out a groan.

"I know how important these dragon rumors are to you, but we need to make sure they aren't some hoax trying to draw in you dragon-slayers." Mira had become very serious before grinning again. "You're my sister, Arey, I can't let anything harmful come upon you while you are in a daze."

"Who said I'd be in a daze?" Arey shot at her older sister. 

"Oh never mind that, are you heading to Hargeon or not?" she brushed off.

"Of course!" Arey demanded. 

"Well then, you better be off. I'll let Master know that you've gone chasing after Natsu again." Before Mira had time to look at her little sister, the blonde wizard had slammed the great wooden doors shut behind her as she raced down the dirt road in the direction of Hargeon. 

"Damn these kids, they never think things through before charging into danger." a man with blue hair chuckled. 

"We were the exact same way, Macao. Those were the good ol' days." smirked another man with thick, Afro-like brown hair. 

"Good ol' days? We're still in our prime! What're you talking about, Wakaba?" Macao chimed. 

Wakaba leaned backwards in his wooden chair so that he was balancing on two legs. He lifted his brown pipe to suck in as much of it's contents as possible before breathing out the smoke. "We aren't as young as we used to be, that's all I'm saying. Soon enough, our faces will be sagging and our backs will be aching and we'll no longer be hauling in all those lovely faces, you know?" 

Macao leaned forward while placing his elbows on his knees and his palms to his face. "Don't even say that, that's years away and you know it!" he shuddered. 

Off to the side, Mira giggled at the older men's conversation. She carried a silver platter over to their table and smiled down at them. "Oh don't you worry, you two look as fresh as the daisies outside." she grinned.
