THIRD POV
Astounded, silence was in between them for minutes. "Why... are you here??" Natsu asks, breaking the ice. "We just finished a mission here" Lily answered.

"What mission??" Happy asks. "About bringing something to the client. We just finished and about to head back" Gajeel explains. "And who's this??" Lily stares at the new member.

"Hello there everyone! I'm Zerton, The Mighty Wanderer!" Zerton cheerfully introduces. "I... see..." Lily says, avoiding the awkward silence.

"Why did you two suddenly run away??" Gajeel asks, staring at Natsu and Happy. "Uhm... Its hard to explain..." Natsu says, averting his eyes.

"Tell me a reasonable reason" Gajeel says in a serious tone. "Err... I'll explain it you but not now..." Natsu says rubbing the back of his head.

"T-then... we'll go now..." Natsu awkwardly laughs and was about to leave when Gajeel held his scarf, stopping him. "Wait..." Gajeel demands, Natsu awkwardly turning around.

"We'll come with you" Gajeel says, Natsu, Lily and Happy dumbfounded. "What??" Natsu asks, reconfirming it once more. "We'll come with you, Lily and I" Gajeel says once more. "E-eh?? But... but why??" Natsu stutters. "We'll. Come. With. You" Gajeel glares at him, sending chills to his spine.

"Fine..."

"So... Why do you want to come with us again??" Natsu whispers. "Something felt fishy... with that shabby guy around you" Gajeel whispered back. "Yea... I thought so too..." Natsu whispers.

"So where are you guys headed??" Gajeel asks, his voice louder this time. "We're heading to Alavar" Natsu answers. "Alavar??" Gajeel raises an eyebrow.

"He means Alvarez. Where the Immortal Black Mage is" Zerton explains. "Huh?? Who's that??" Gajeel raises an eyebrow. "It's Zeref" Happy joins the gang.

"What??" Lily asks, he didn't expect they would actually be searching for Zeref. "You actually left for that??" Gajeel asks. "Yep, for some reasons" Natsu answers.

"So what are you going to do once you're there??" Gajeel asks. "I actually planned to ask something. Something Important" Natsu answers in a serious tone.

"Hm... are we far? or near??" Gajeel asks. "Near. Just miles and miles and miles and-". "Ok stop" Gajeel interrupts Zerton. "Don't worry, we're near" Zerton chuckles.

* ALVAREZ *

"That guy hasn't come this month huh..." Zeref sighs, looking out his window. Sitting in bed and a book in hand, he stares out his window.

"Your majesty, it's time for lunch" a man appears in midair, bowing at the emperor before him. "Thanks Invel, you may go now" Zeref nods as Invel bows his head before disappearing in mid air.

Sighing, he closes the book and puts it on his desk. Looking at the clear bright sky, thinking of something.
