Chapter 9: Choices and Decisions
"It's about Lucy."

Previously in Fate...

"You have already fallen for her, Kaze."

"I hope we could meet soon."

"Would you mind being our master, again?"

"Do you know someone named Lucy Heartfilia?" 

"Lucy has touched our lives, our hearts, and left a fingerprint that would never heal."

"I would give anything, except for my fellow nakama, to see her again. Safe and sound."

"Nevermind. It's none of my business, anyway."

"What does Master Sakura know about Lucy? How did she know her?"

"Mou~! Vulcanoo~!"

Vulcano grumbled in annoyance. "What's wrong with you, Coral!?" he let out.

Coral pouted and waved her arms around. "Why did you have to burn this dress?"

Vulcano felt a vein pop. Literally. "Like. I. Said. I DIDN'T BURN YOUR DRESS! It's just the freaking sleeve!" 

"That's just the same thing!"

"No. It's. Not!"

"Is too!"

"Is not!"

"Is too!"

"OH WILL YOU TWO JUST SHUT UP!?"

BONK

Vulcano and Coral lay on the ground - out cold, with bumps on their heads. Anna ruffled her hair a bit before huffing out a deep sigh.

"That should do it," she muttered before sitting back down on her seat and looking out the window. A small uncomfortable feeling grew in her stomach and she knitted her eyebrows together, trying to find out why she's feeling so uneasy and unstable. The feeling was similar to the time before they found Lucy... Is it that same feeling that something big was about to happen?

A soft giggle brought her back to reality. She moved her stare to the blonde in front of her. Lucy sat beside Coral - who recovered fast and was enthusiastically telling stories about their fellow guild mates, and Lucy found the stories funny. Kaze was snoring away beside Coral (maybe he ate too much). Beside Anna, Rain listened silently to Vulcano's continuous grumbling. 

Anna wondered what Coral was talking about when said prankster glanced her way and laughed out loud. She raised an eyebrow at the two giggling girls.

Lucy stifled her giggles with her hand, but her efforts turned out to be in vain. She wasn't able to contain it much longer and she laughed out loud, with Coral joining in the chorus.

Anna's mouth twitched and she growled, "What is it?"

"I-It's nothing... (laugh)... It's just... I told L-Lucino-c-chan... about t-that time w-when you t-talked in your s-sleep..." Coral managed to say between giggles.
