Fairy Tail was normally a rambunctious guild where it's members would regularly brawl together or take jobs, this day, however, found some of its core members known for their extreme brawling, sitting quietly to themselves or with their teams having no plans in mind.
Beside one of those members was their partner and teammate Lisanna who looked to her best friend in worry. "Natsu are you okay?" her blue eyes scanned him as he turned to her and put on an obviously fake smile "course Lis, nothing's wrong, no need to worry" unconvinced, Lisanna pushed further "you sure Natsu? Because since the Dragon and Demon Slayer mission master sent you'd on, you've all been acting strange and not like yourselves, your all so quiet and just unusual, well….. except Gajeel and Laxus, they are always quiet and keep to themselves" Natsu avoided eye contact and laughed forcibly while jumping up from where he sat "Don't be silly Lis" "I'm not being silly Nat-" he cut her off with another fake laugh "ah I forgot I think I left the…uh…stove on! Yeah the stove, gotta go, see yah Lis!"
And with that, he took off out of the guild leaving an even more curious and worried Lisanna who walked to a table with her other friends from their usual teams "What was that about Lis?" Levy a small blue haired woman asked as she looked from her book "No clue Levy, I asked him why hi., Gray, Wendy, Gajeel, and Laxus have been acting strange since the slayer mission and he just avoided it saying nothing was wrong then ran off, I'm worried, do any of you know anything?" Levy frowned "No, I tried asking Gajeel the same thing and he took off with Lily on a mission" "and Gray-sama will not tell Juvia why he has been so quiet and refuse to fight Natsu-san too" Lisanna looked to the other blue haired woman "you too Juvia" the water mage nodded as 4 others approached the table "same for us, boss man totally seems out of wack, he even refused a free beer from me this mornin''" "beer beer" Bickslow and his babies chimed from beside the rest of the Raijunshu who nodded with their own worry evident on their face "Wendy too, she never hides anything from me but when I asked, she just ran off saying she forgot she had a mission with Gajeel-san" Lisanna frowned and sighed "something is going on and we need to find out, they are our nakama and if they need help, we should be there to help them" the growing group turned when the sound of armor stopped near them "agreed and very well put Lisanna, nakama always support another when in need, I will join you all" Lisanna smiled with Levy and Juvia and she nodded to the new arrival to the group "thank you Erza" the red haired knight nodded her head and lead the group from the guild.
"Oh my, what if they find out master, shouldn't we stop them" The sweet bartender MiraJane looked down to their pint-sized guild master Makarov "let's leave them, this is no longer just slayer related and they may need the extra help, most certainly that group is the best option" "very well, refill?" "please" Makarov smiled as he held out his empty mug for Mira to refill of beer.
