AT THE GUILD: 6:27 p.m.
"Hey Natsu," Gray whispered, taking a seat next to him, "Mira's planning something…"
Natsu stopped eating for a moment and stared at Gray, "Whatcha mean stripper?" They were at the guild, sitting by the bar. Everyone was doing what they normally do, nothing strange was happening… yet.
Gray sighed, "It's a week past Valentine day and she didn't do anything like she usually did." Gray was right. Mira would always have these over the top love schemes on Valentine days that would usually fail and put some people in the hospital. But even when they failed, Mira would only try harder and make them more over the top. This year it was a shock to come into the guild without any decorations.
"Maybe she's calling it quits," Natsu said, but it was muffled due to the fact he was stuffing his face again.
"I don't know, but keep your guard up…" Gray said, getting up to go talk with someone else.
Natsu continued eating his food, wondering about what Gray said. 'It's past Valentine day, there's no way Mira would try to pull something now. She's too late' Natsu nodded his head and stood up from the bar. 'I should go to Luce's, wonder why she didn't come here.' "Mira! I'm going to Luce's!"
Mira came to pick up the plates that Natsu just ate out of, "Oh, Ok. But you have to come back at 7:15!"
Natsu raised a suspicious eyebrow, "Why?"
"Because I said so," She said in a demonic tone.
"H-Hai!" Natsu said, shuttering in fear. He turned around and walked out of the guild. Gray, being his nosy self, heard the entire conversation. 'Yeah cause that's not suspicious at all'
"Ice prick, what's up with you? Erza's not even here and you're cowering in fear," Gajeel said, munching away on a spoon.
"It's Mira, she has something planned…."
"Like?"
"Like something that could end up people in the hospital!"
"Wait," Gajeel started, "You're telling me that Mira puts people in hospitals?" Gray nodded his head frantically.
"Psh! You're such a coward!"
"I'm serious! It doesn't matter if you believe me, just keep your guard up, especially around 7:15," Gray said, casually stripping of his shirt.
"Fine Fullbuster, I'll keep watch for your sake." Gajeel rolled his eyes as Gray sighed in relief.
Suddenly, the doors to the guild opened, revealing an exhausted Freed and a perky Levy. Gajeel gave a suspicious glare at the two as they made their way over to the bar. "Mira, I got her! I also need a drink! With lots of ice!" Freed said, plopping down on one of the seats.
"Mira, Mira, Mira, Mira, MIRA! Where's the book!" Levy said, excitedly jumping up and down. Mira came out with a mountain of books in her hand, "You mean these?"
Levy almost fainted with joy seeing her favorite book series, Harry Potter, Twilight, and The Missing Series, all in a huge pile. "Thanks Mira!"
"I'll let you have all of these," Mira started, a devious smile tugging on her lips, "If you do a favor for me."
LUCY'S HOUSE: 6:39 p.m.
Lucy was sitting at her desk, attempting to write another chapter of her story. She already wrote 1, but still felt some inspiration in her blood. 'What else can I write about?' She sighed, "Guess I ran out of inspiration juice…" She put down her pen, stood up, and started stretching. After her stretch, she looked at the clock. '6:40 huh? Guess it's too late to go to the guild.' She shrugged her shoulders and went into the kitchen. "What do I want right now… tea!"
Grabbing the tea kettle and some tea bags, she heated some water over the stove. "Hmm… I wonder where Natsu and Happy are. They didn't come here today…" She would never admit it out loud, but it was awfully lonely without those two around. Especially Natsu. Lucy has openly admitted that she has a crush on Natsu to Mira and Levy, but says it's nothing more. 'Besides he has Lisanna' As much as she wished he had feelings for her, she knows he has feelings for Lisanna.
Sighing sadly, she turned the stove off and carefully poured the steaming hot water in to a mug when-
"HEY LUCE!" Startled, Lucy dropped the tea kettle on the floor, effectively getting some hot water on hand. "OWWWW!
"Lucy!" Natsu jumped off the window sill and sprinted towards the kitchen. When he got to the kitchen Lucy was on the floor holding onto her hand. "Lucy, are you ok? What happened?"
Lucy looked up to Natsu, tears in her eyes, "Y-You scared me while I was pouring hot water in a mug. And it spilled on my hand."
'Crap, crap, crap! I made Lucy cry!' Natsu knelt near Lucy and grabbed her hands. Without think, he pulled it up to his lips and placed a kiss on it.
Lucy's eyes widen and blushed as she watched Natsu. "What are you doing?" She said, a little happy that he was kissing her hand.
Natsu, still oblivious to what he was doing, looked up to her, then CLICK!
Natsu let go of Lucy's hand, and turned, facing a wall. "Err, um…. Sorry!" Natsu said, awkwardly scratching the back of his neck.
"It's ok…" Lucy said, still blushing hard.
Awkward silence…..
"Um…*awkwardly coughs* Mira wants us to go to the guild…"
Lucy got up and dusted herself off, "Why?"
Natsu shrugged and stood up, "When I asked why, she went all demon mode…"
"Well that's not suspicious at all…" muttered Lucy. "Fine."
"Yosh! Let's get going then! We have to be there before 7:15!" Natsu excitedly said, pulling Lucy towards the door.
"Wait, I have to get ready!" Lucy said, struggling to get out of his hold.
"Why, you look fine the way you are!"
Lucy blushed at Natsu's word, "But I'm not wearing clothes to go out with! Please! It'll only take like 2 minutes!"
Natsu looked at Lucy, "2 minutes?" Lucy nodded and Natsu sighed, letting go of her. "You better be done by 2 minutes."
2 minutes later…
Natsu looked at Lucy and she looked stunning. Natsu never really understood why she tried to look her best. He personally thought she was perfect just the way she was. "Ready?"
"Yeah!"
BACK AT THE GUILD: 7:12 p.m.
"Freed, are you done?" Mira asked, getting impatient.
"Mira, I just finished, are you happy?" Freed said, getting up. He just went around the guild putting runes on the floor.
"Yay! This is going to finally work!" Mira said, tears of victory rolling down her cheeks. Freed sweat dropped, "Mira, why didn't you just do this on Valentine day?"
Mira smiled and walked over to the bar, "I needed to make sure this was going to work. I saved up enough jewels so I could buy all of Levy's favorite books to bribe her. Besides," She said turning to face Freed, "Everyone expects me to do it on Valentine day. I need the element of surprise."
Freed grinned and nodded, "Well is there anyone else that could cause a flaw to this plan?"
Mira thought for a while, and then shook her head, "No, there can't be. You and Levy are the only people who could undo the runes and Levy agreed she wouldn't do anything to stop this."
Freed rolled his eyes, "She only agreed because you bribed her with books and said she wouldn't be the one involved."
Mira smile, "She still agreed right?" Suddenly, the guild doors opened revealing Natsu and Lucy. "Yay! The plan can start!"
Gray was walking around the oddly crowded guild, looking for Mira but got a face full of Natsu, "Flame turd?" he said, rubbing his forehead.
"Watch where you're going, Frosty the Snowman!" Natsu said rubbing the bump Gray caused.
"We don't have time for this! We need to find Mira before-" and that's when the lights went off. "Crap Natsu! We're too late!"
"Y-You really think Mira w-would do something t-this late?" Natsu stammered, starting to be afraid that Mira has something planned.
Soon enough, the spotlight machine was on Mira, who was on the stage. "Hey Fairies! Welcome to our first and ever, Open Mike Night!" some people in the crowd started to applaud, and some (like Natsu, Gray and Gajeel) groaned. "Since we didn't do anything for Valentine day, I decided we'd do this. So this is how it works, the songs that are sang are going to be loved based. They have to do something about love."
"Ugh! I aint about that life!" Gajeel shouted and stomped towards the guild doors. He opened them and tried to walk out, but hit the imaginary wall, "What the-"
"Oh Gajeel, did you want to leave?" Mocked Mira. "Well that's the catch." Everyone stared at Mira in shock.
"Cana… do you think she would really go that far for romance?" Erza said, eating her strawberry cheesecake.
"I think she would and did…" Muttered Cana, "Look." Erza looked towards the door and saw about every male member of the guild trying all their might to break the runes. "Sorry boys, Freed made those runes so it's like impossible."
Gajeel looked at her, clear shocked written all over his face. Then he snapped, "Shrimp could undo these!"
"Sorry," a voice behind them said. They all turned and saw Freed, "Levy won't be helping you. She agreed she wouldn't do anything to stop this. As long as we don't drag her in it, of course."
"Mira?" Lucy shouted, "How do we undo the runes?"
"You sing a romantic song! We have to sing at most 10 songs and the runes will be broken." About 99% of the guild gave a frustrated groan, Freed and Levy smiling as Mira jumped up excitedly. "Soo, who wants to go first?
Silence…
"Fine then, looks like our spot will choose." Mira pointed to the spot light machine and it started going all around the guild.
'I hope it doesn't land on me… I would die of embarrassment' thought Lucy.
'I know it can't land on me. I got bribed' thought a smiling Levy.
'Land on Silverware or Snow cone!' prayed Natsu.
'Land on Iron Mutt or Dragon breath!' begged Gray.
'Sho be doo bop!' thought Gajeel.
'If I get picked, what am I gonna sing?' Cana thought, wobbling in her seat.
'Should I requip into a different armor? Or should I go up with what a have on now?' wondered Erza.
'I wonder if Carla will accept my fish!' Happy thought, holding a fish with a bow on it.
'Singing is Manly!' Elfman thought.
'Juvia wants to sing for Gray-sama!' Juvia thought, standing behind a pillar.
The spot light started slowing down, make its finally stop on…
…
..
.
Erza.
What is Erza going to sing? Why was Freed exhausted? Stay tuned! Oh, and I apologize if Mira seemed a little OOC... I think Gajeel was OOC too. You know what? I'm sorry if everyone is OOC! I'm also sorry for any grammical errors I made. Review!
