The blonde scanned the guild hall for either the pink haired dragon slayer or the blue haired bookworm. She found Levy near the middle of the hall, sitting next to Gajeel, as he chewed on some steel nails. Levy, of course, had her nose in a big tome, occasionally chatting and pointing at something for Gajeel to look at in the book.

Lucy walked over and sat across from Levy and Gajeel, "Hi, Levy. Hi, Gajeel."

Levy enthusiastically said "Hi, Lu-chan! I was wondering where you were this morning!" Gajeel simply grunted in acknowledgement at Lucy.

Lucy grinned and took out her latest chapter from her jacket and pushed it towards Levy.

"Is that a new chapter?!" Levy asked excitedly.

"Sure is." Lucy replied happily.

Levy quickly grabbed the pages and started reading them. The big tome in front of her, currently forgotten. It didn't take long for her to read the chapter with her gale-force reading glasses, perched on her nose.

"Lu-chan this one is the best so far! I cannot wait to see how Michael is going to get out of this one! And with Aaron standing in his way, it's going to be tricky saving Rhiannon." Levy said with enthusiasm. "Have you got any ideas already for the next chapter?" Levy asked and gave the pages back to Lucy.

"Not yet. I just finished writing that this morning. That's why I wasn't in the guild earlier." Lucy replied. "Also, have you seen my team at all today?" she asked both Levy and Gajeel.

Gajeel grunted a negative while Levy shook her head, "Sorry, no. But maybe you can ask Mira." Levy supplied.

"I'll go do that. Thanks, Levy and Gajeel. I'll let you know as soon as I have a new chapter, Levy" Lucy said as she got up to walk over to the bar, where Mira was cleaning some glasses.

"Hi, Mira! How's your morning been? I was also wondering if you've seen my team around?" asked Lucy, as she sat down on one of the barstools closest to Mira, placing her latest chapter on the bar. Cana was a few feet away, looking quit drunk already with her barrel of booze, half empty. Lucy simply waved at the drunk mage, who waved back sloppily.

"Hi, Lucy. It's been quiet actually. Master's asked Erza to go on an S-Class mission while Wendy's gone into the forest to learn more about healing from Porlyusica. As for Natsu and Gray, I heard Gildarts dragged them away to do some fishing down by the river. And I think Happy and Carla, as well as Panther Lily went to the markets." Mira answered. "Did you want a strawberry milkshake?" she then asked.

"That would be great! Thanks, Mira. And I guess everyone's busy today..." Lucy sighed and wondered what she could do for the rest of the day.

Lucy then heard footsteps behind her and instantly froze. She would know those footsteps anywhere. 'Oh, Mavis. Act natural. Act natural.' she internally told herself. From the corner of her eye she could see his tattooed left shoulder, as he sat two chairs away from Lucy. 'Ah...crap.' she thought.

"Hey, Mira. I'll have whatever today's lunch is and my usual drink." Laxus said, his sound pod around his neck and his fur lined coat nowhere to be seen.

"Sure thing, Laxus. I made pasta today." Mira chirped, as she handed Lucy her milkshake and Laxus some whiskey.

"That's fine." Laxus said as he took a sip of his drink. "Hey, Blondie." he turned towards Lucy.

"Um...h..hi, La..Laxus." Lucy stuttered. 'Good job, you nut job. That was real smooth.' she cringed internally. Laxus stared at Lucy for a few more seconds and turned back to his drink and pasta, that Mira had brought over.

Lucy started fiddling with her straw, too nervous to even drink around the man. All of a sudden a crash was heard at the entrance.

"You damn, flame brain! I can't believe you burnt all the fish that we caught!" Gray yelled out as he punched Natsu towards the nearest table. Everyone in the guild could see a pile of something black and burnt sticking out from a bag near Gray's feet.

Natsu got up and shouted, "It's your fault for not giving the bag to me! You were dragging it on the ground, you stupid popsicle!" Natsu retaliated by delivering a kick to Gray's stomach. Gray blocked the kick and threw the dragon slayer over his head. Natsu quickly landed on his feet and threw a fireball towards Gray which he dodged.

Lucy could only watch as the fireball headed her way. Someone grabbed her by the shoulders and she was suddenly pulled against a firm chest. Lucy gasped as the fireball that Natsu threw, hit her precious pages.

"No! My new chapter!" she cried in dismay. Natsu and Gray stopped fighting to look at what their teammate was upset about. When they noticed the pile of ashes near Lucy, their faces turned pale.
