we had just set out on a mission with the group. happy, carla, wendy, gray, erza, me and Natsu.
several days before
"Natsu?"
"yeah, what's up luce?"
"my rents due soon so I need a job... do you want to come?" I looked up at Natsu with hopeful eyes.
"sure let's have a look!" Natsu gave me his signature grin and he pointed to the jobs board. my smile grew as I mentally cheered that the landlady won't have to kick me out again.
I lead the way as Natsu chased up to my side, happy we have a new job to do.
I sighed. why was there never any good jobs to do. Natsu had picked out one that was to 'help smash down a wall' but I'm pretty sure Natsu would smash the whole house down plus it wasn't very well paid. even after we won the grand magical games there are just more really lame and boring job quests for three-year-olds to do.
Mirajane was behind the bar and she saw our discomfort, she made a clicking sound with her tongue and dove behind the bar. she popped back up with a new found determination in her eyes. this is quite ,as you could guess, worrying. though before I could guess what this new found determination in her eyes was, I was brought out of my daydream state when she started talking to me.
"are you looking for a job, because this one has been requested for you two!"
she rested her head on her hand as she gave an unnerving smile waiting for our response.
"cool, we'll take it"
"wha-" I was cut off when Natsu spoke again
"it's a job requested for us luce, and we never reject or ignore a job"
"but Natsu we don't even know what the job is abou-"
"I'll go ask if team Natsu wants to come." and with that Natsu ran off to the table with our friends on.
"but..." I looked at mirajane with a desperate expression hoping and wanting her to stop him but she said
"oh lucy, you don't know what the job is about you may like it, while you decide I'm going to go write it in the job request book, have fun." she then left.
I groaned rolling my eyes. I picked up the job request sheet and read it aloud to myself
"please help. I've lost my child. she's been playing with a snow globe..."
a snow globe huh whats so bad about that?
"the snow globe was found in an antique shop
one day she was in our living room when she started speaking another language unknown to me."
another language what are they teaching kids these days?
"I asked her what language she was speaking but she didn't reply she just stared intently into the snow globe waving it around
when the snow globe started glowing and so did her eyes it was a shade of light pink
when a portal appeared in the globe and it started glowing until she was fully sucked in."
what? a portal in a snow globe?
"a wind came out of nowhere when the portal appeared
I need help she's been gone for a few days and has left without a trace. not even the magical council can make a lead so they gave up
and said she was dead please she's not I know it she's alive just on the over side of the portal. please help.
reward £10,000,000
please help find her."
Oh my, this much? this could pay my rent for 1 1/2 years with loads left over.
but I wouldn't know where to start.
