Lost Senses

The Nose Knows

The three girls all looked at each other before coming to a silent agreement. Whoever was in the hallway coming after them was a Fairy, no doubt about that, but why would a Fairy be so keen to follow them back to their own balcony when the first game was just minutes away from being announced, there was practically no reason for them to.. but whoever it was somehow still had a reason for coming to their balcony, and the girls weren't just going to let a member of Fairy Tail spy on them without some sort of repercussion.

Juvia stepped into the hallway with a frown and looked towards the darkness at the end of the hall where she was sure the Fairy was at, "There! Aerial!" She called out as a gust of wind swirled towards the darkness, it rushed around a certain spot before becoming a swirl of quick wind, trapping the Fairy inside the sphere with ease.

Whichever Fairy she had captured let out a shrill, high pitched, scream upon being swept up by the swirling winds.. so it was probably safe to assume the Fairy they had taken prisoner was a girl.. but then again, the three of them had all heard some of the male Fairy Tail members scream before, and judging by that.. the person in the sphere could very well be a boy as well.. they'd know soon enough, however..

Lucy smirked at the scream as she turned to Juvia, "Good job, Amaya." She said telepathically as her shoes clicked against the hallway floor as she walked towards the Fairy Juvia had captured, "I honestly can't believe a member of Fairy Tail would stoop as low as to spy on us." She shook her head, she was disappointed, but not surprised.. the Fairies were always a bunch of lowlifes, and the three girls knew how low they could go firsthand.. which was very, very, low. Under any circumstances. Knowing that information, that narrowed down the Fairy they had captured to about 90% of Fairy Tail's members.

Levy sighed at the thought as she walked besides Lucy with a small frown, "I wonder which one it is though.." she told them as she faced the direction of the captive.. something about the person they had just captured didn't sit right with her, but she didn't know why, "they are definitely a Fairy.. but something feels off." She added as she used her life magic to try and pinpoint who it was, everyone's life essence looked different to her, and was partially effected by what type of magic they used, so if she knew the Fairy's magic then she'd basically automatically know who had been creeping around after them. However, the magic she saw in this person's life essence caused a small gasp of shock to escape her mouth as she carefully put a hand on Lucy's shoulder to stop her.

"It's not a Fairy." Levy hissed lowly as Lucy's eyes widened slightly.

"What do you mean it's not a Fairy?" Lucy said in a hushed tone with panic creeping into her voice, "Sting and Rogue both said whoever following us was definitely a Fairy!" She said quickly and urgently, not even caring the Fairy next to them could probably hear her! Had they just captured an innocent bystander? They were probably just going for a walk or something! Heck, the bathrooms are right next to the Serpents balcony, they probably just needed to pee and now they were trapped in an air prison with three psychopaths completely ignoring them!

Juvia walked over to them with a frown as they continued to ignore whoever was in the air prison, "so if they're not a fairy.. who did I trap?" She asked with slight worry in her voice as she pushed past them and towards the swirling air prison. She mumbled something under her breath that slowed down the whirling winds so the three girls could see who was inside it, even if Levy was 99% sure she knew who Juvia had trapped.. the person she had in mind was the only one here who could have a life essence like the one Levy had just seen.. it wouldn't match anyone else's..

The person's life essence was strong, but calm.. it roared with power like a dragon, but also hid behind its shy exterior.. it was quick, and effortlessly agile.. it sparkled and shone.. it was enchanting.. but it was also scary.. it had it's dark areas.. many more dark areas then this person's life essence should have, which just made Levy wonder to herself..
