I sat up and cracked my back against the stone wall. "Don't worry... I'll get us out of here." I sighed.

"How? I've been trying for at least a week and a half now." Dominique sighed.

"Yeah, well, I'm a wizard with magic that is extremely useful right now." I said and whistled.

"Hey, mr guard man? Hello?" I sang in a sweet voice, and a guard came over and looked at me.

"What do you want?" He asked and I gave him flirty eyes and crooked my finger for him to come closer.

When he did, I grabbed his face in my hands and concentrated deeply. "You will let us out of here, then kill everyone you're working with." I said and he slowly nodded and unlocked our cell. After he did, he went to another guard down the hall and stuck a dagger in his neck, then continued on his way.

"Come on." I said and lead Dominique out and to the open. I made a mental mark of where the hidden cave was, then continued onto the hut to see everyone freaking out.

"Baz!" Natsu yelled and hugged me. "We thought you'd been kidnapped." He sighed against my hair.

"I was kidnapped. I escaped and brought Dominique with me, and most of the dark wizards are dead by now." I shrugged.

"You did that all yourself?" Gray asked, stepping up to hug me.

"What? Did you think I was helpless? I'm no damsel in distress. I get shit done." I said and he smiled.

"That's my girl." Gray kissed my forehead, and Natsu beamed proudly.

"We should check and see if it was really eradicated." Erza said and I nodded and lead them back to the hidden cave.

Everyone was dead except for the wizard I had control over, and he was covered in blood. He saw me and straightened up.

"I've done what you said."

"Yeah, cool. I release you." I said and he seemed to snap back to reality, as if he'd woken up from a dream.

"Anyone wanna fight him?" I asked, but the poor man was so terrified, he had a mental breakdown right then and there.

"Does this mean the job's done and we can go to the beach?" I asked and they looked at me in shock before Natsu laughed and put his arm around my shoulders.

"Sure, Baz. Anything you want." He smiled down at me.

"First, we've got to get off this island." Erza reminded us.

"Oh, I can handle that!" Lucy said and got a key from her keychain. "Open, gate of the water-bearer! Aquarius!" She yelled and a pretty mermaid with blue hair showed up.

"Oh, she's pretty." I gasped in awe.

"Oh, thank you! You're pretty as well." Aquarius smiled at me. "You got a boyfriend?" She asked.

"Yeah." I nodded.

"Better than Lucy's done so far." She shrugged.

"Hey! I have a boyfriend, too, ya know!" Lucy yelled.

"Sure you do. Now, what do you want?" She glared at Lucy.

"We- we need to..." Lucy stuttered.

"We're kinda stuck on this island, so it'd be real helpful if you could get us back to the mainland so we can get this girl home and safe." I smiled kindly to Aquarius.

"Oh, of course." She said and made a huge, strong bubble to carry us underwater.

"How did you do that?!" Lucy asked.

"Part of my previous job, you had to know what people liked and more specifically, how to talk to them to make them like you." I shrugged.

"Previous job... ha." Dominique laughed quietly and I winked over to her.

"Wait, you know her previous job? Not even I know!" Lucy said and Erza and Happy also seemed in shocked.

"Of course. I'm not stupid." Dominique said, making them frown.

We were soon to the mainland, and we were out and I was saying bye to Aquarius. "Come visit whenever you like, okay? Who doesn't need a sassy mermaid in their life?" I smiled, making her laugh.

"See ya, Baz." She said, we hugged, then she went back to the spirit world.

"Right. Let's get Dominique home, then we can play!" I clapped my hands together happily.
