I would like you to note that silver and Luna both have yet to fully understand their magic, they are still being trained by their parents.

Luna and silver sat by the riverbed, their fishing poles propped before them. Sylvia was on her way with Rebecca, not wanting her to walk alone. The three had decided to spend the day fishing and then camping by the riverbank, as it wasn't far from the guild. Luna hummed lightly as she watched a fish nibble her bait, and then swim away. "They don't seem to want to eat our worms." Silver said with a huff. "My dad says it just takes patients." Lucy said proudly, as she had nothing but patience. "Well, this is boring." Silver said, leaning back propping himself up on his elbows.

"Rebecca should be here soon, it's almost ten." Luna said, looking to the sky. "Luna! Silver!" A happy voice said behind them. They turned to see Sylvia and Rebecca walking towards them hand in hand. Rebecca was waving with a huge grin on her face, Sylvia also waved as they approached. "Hey Rebecca." Luna said with a smile. "Hey aunt Sylvia." Silver said with a smile. "Hey guys. Are you getting anything?" Sylvia asked. "No." Silver said, his cheeks puffed out in anger. "You need patience." Sylvia said, ruffling his hair. "I told you." Luna said, sticking her tongue out at him. "Yeah, know it all." Silver mumbled, causing the girls to laugh.

"Have fun, and be careful." Sylvia said to Rebecca, placing a kiss atop her head. "Someone will stop by this evening to check on you." Sylvia said, waving as she left. "I brought some cookies." Rebecca said, pulling a container from her bag. There were two dozen chocolate chip cookies inside, looking very delicious. Luna's eyes lit up at the sight, silver slightly drooling over the thought. "Let's catch some fish to cook over a fire." Luna said excitedly, as Rebecca got her pole ready.

They fished late into the evening, catching around ten fish which would be plenty for them. "Woah, that's a lot of fish." Silver said, slightly annoyed that Luna caught most of them. "See, patience." Luna said, a radiant smile on her face. Silver couldn't help but smile as he looked at her, there was just something about her he found so captivating. His dad said he would understand better when he was older. "So, who's making the fire?" Silver asked, hoping he could do the honors.

"I don't know how." Luna said, shrugging her shoulders. "I don't either." Rebecca said sadly. "I'll show you." Silver said excitedly, as he began to make a fire. "You place the logs like so, then you rub these together." He said, his tongue sticking between his teeth as he began to rub two sticks together. Smoke began to form as a tiny flame appeared. "Then you blow on it." He said, blowing the flame higher until there was a fire. "That's so cool." Luna exclaimed as she watched. She proceeded to put the fish on sticks to cook them over the fire, placing the ends of the sticks in the ground so they wouldn't have to hold them.

"I'll watch the fish while you two set up the tent." Rebecca said, taking over for Luna. "Okay." Luna said, grabbing the tent bag. "Have you ever done this before?" Luna asked, as Silver helped her pull the tent out of the bag. "No, but dad said it's easy." He said with a shrug of his shoulders. Thirty minutes later the tent was still not up, as the sun began to set. "You guys having trouble?" A voice asked. They turned to see gray and natsu approaching them.

"Dad, thank goodness." Silver said happily. "Help me!" He said, pointing to the tent. "Okay, Okay." Gray said with a chuckle. "Come on flame brain." He said to natsu. "Yeah, I'm coming popsicle pants." Natsu said, as they began to put the tent up. "You kids having fun?" Natsu asked, noticing the cooking fish. "Yeah!" They exclaimed. "Look at all the fish Luna caught." Silver said, pointing the fish out to gray. "Wow, you caught all of these?" He asked, as Luna nodded proudly.

"Good job kiddo." Natsu said, ruffling her hair. "Alright, you ready gray?" Natsu asked while giving Rebecca a hug. "Yup." Gray replied, hugging everyone. "See ya!" Natsu said with a wave, as he and gray headed back to the guild. "The fish are almost done." Rebecca said, checking one of the fish. "Good, I'm starving." Silver said, licking his lips. They sat down and enjoyed their meal, chatting about how their day has been and how things at home were.

"I've never had my own room before." Rebecca was saying. "Even when I lived with my mom and dad I shared a room with them." "But, why?" Luna asked, not being able to imagine having to sleep in her parents room. "We were a poor family, we lived on an island far away from other towns." Rebecca said with a shrug. "I'm sorry, that must have been very hard." Luna said. "I had my mom and dad so I was happy. Natsu and Sylvia are a lot like my mom and dad." Rebecca said thoughtfully. "I'm glad I have them." She said thankfully.

"I'm glad I have my parents too." Silver said, through mouthfuls of fish. "Me too." Luna said with a giggle. It began to sprinkle as they sat there finishing up the last of the fish. "Well, I say we go to sleep." Luna said, noticing the darkness around them. "Sounds good." Silver said, putting out the fire. "How will we sleep? There's only one tent." Rebecca said. "Oh, your right." Luna said. Silver stuck his head into the opening of the tent. "It's big enough for the three of us." He said with a shrug, not understanding the girls wanted to sleep separately.

"Well, we'll be fine." Luna said with a shrug, as the three got into the tent. They set their sleeping bags down and cuddled up under the sheets, as the rain began to fall heavier. Luna lay there thinking, unable to sleep as the rain continued. She shivered slightly as the wind began to pick up, cuddling deeper into her sleeping back before slowly drifting off.
