Year X784
Lucy sighed sitting on the edge of the fountain in Hargeon reading another on of her books with Aquarius one of the zodiacs watching over her, "Aquarius, go back to the spirit world. As I recall you have a date in a few minutes do you not?" she felt the mermaid spirit hug her from behind.
"Hmph. He can wait. You hardly ever call us out to spend time with us, so it's my turn for today." Aquarius pouted.
Lucy chuckled, "My my, such a possessive spirit you are."
"Hmph."
Lucy sighed, "As much as I would love to continue staying here, we must be getting a move on. We have a job to do after all."
"Tch, I know." Aquarius let go of her but didn't return to the spirit world deciding to stay out with Lucy even though the blonde earned some looks from the people around them but when they recognized who she was they smiled and waved. Lucy humored them and waved back giving them a small smile.
"Hmph, this is a first. Normally humans wouldn't even come near you, but now here they are waving and smiling." Aquarius observed.
"Yes, I will admit that this is certainly unexpected and somewhat annoying but I can get used to this I suppose." Lucy said honestly.
Aquarius gave her a smirk as they continued to walk through town unaware of four individuals that were already in town.
A beautiful young lady with short white hair and brown eyes was wearing a white blouse with long sleeves, a dark blue skirt, sporting white boots with a key hoister strapped to her side looking around. This young girl's name is Yukino Agria, "Amazing...so many people." She was looking around for a magic shop when she finally spotted one.
"Excuse me, is anyone here?" Yukino called out.
"Ah, yes how may I help you?" the storeowner asked.
Yukino smiled, "I'm looking for the Canis Minor Key, would you happen to have one in stock?"
"As a matter of fact I do!" he rummaged around until he finally found the key, "Ah-ha, here it is! Here you are young lady!"
Yukino took the key gratefully, "Thank you very much! How much?"
"Only 20,000J." the man smiled.
Yukino gave him the money without any complaints and bowed again, "Once again, thank you very much."
"Your most welcome, young lady." The man smiled.
Yukino left the store with a huge smile on her face; "I finally found it!" she beamed putting the key in her pouch.
"Kyaa! Its Salamander!"
"Oh my gosh Salamander's here!"
Yukino blinked before she recognized the nickname, "Salamander...from Fairy Tail?"
Happy and Natsu were currently in Hargeon looking for Lucy. They had returned from a job and he saw that Lucy wasn't there and one of his guild mates told him that she was currently in Hargeon, so he left in a hurry, even if it meant he had to ride the evil known as "the train."
Natsu was sniffing the air trying to catch her scent, which smelled like vanilla. He got weird looks from people but he didn't care, he had to find Luce!
"Hey Natsu, have you got anything yet?" Happy asked.
"Nah, nothing yet. But she has to be here somewhere." Natsu grinned. He had grown to be quite the handsome young man over the years gaining some muscles along the way.
