In a land far, far away lies the kingdom of Fiore—a small, peaceful nation 17 million, and a place filled with magic. Found in every home, bought and sold in every marketplace. For most magic is merely a tool, a mundane part of everyday life. For some, however, magic is an art, and they've devoted their lives to its practice. These are the wizards. Banded together into magical guilds, they ply their skills in search of fame and fortune. Many such guilds dot the landscape of Fiore, but there is a certain guild in a certain town that soars high above the rest. One from which countless legends have been born. A guild that will no doubt continue to create legends well into the future. Its name…is Fairy Tail.

"Maa, I'm so bored." A pinkette said as she stood in front of the job request board. "There has to be something I can take for work."

The young woman had captivating green eyes and a light mocha skin tone that seemed to make the color of her eyes pop even more. She had the bubblegum pink hair, and it had an edgy style. It had an undercut shave with the hair on top falling to the right in curves. Her figure was also mature as she stood now at 5'5" with a curvy figure.

She had on a sleeveless fishnet top under an off-the-shoulder cropped neon green top. She then had on fishnet armbands with fingerless pink gloves as well. Her pants were tight and made of leather, and tucked into black combat boots. Each of her ears were triple pierced with silver small hoops. The young woman then looked to her guildmate who has always had trouble picking a job.

"Hey, Nab, you've been here all day looking at the board, see anything interesting?" She asked.

Nab tilted his head giving a thoughtful hum before he moved across the board to place his hand on a job.

"This job has to deal with a wizard robbing town after town." Nab said. "There's a big reward out for him to anyone who catches him and brings him in. Seem like something you'd want to take, Rizzo?"

Rizzo grinned while snatching the request off the board so fast that Nab hadn't realized it was gone until a moment later. He sweat-dropped while looking at the excited grin on her face.

"Sounds like my kind of gig." Rizzo said. "Can't wait to see what kind of magic this guy uses, kick his ass, and put him behind bars!"

She'd just leave a note for her brothers, so they knew where she went. Or tell one of the others to tell them. They could be a bit overprotective at times.

"Do you really think you should be taking on that job on your own?" Gray, who was only in his boxers as usual, asked as he walked up behind her.

Rizzo clutched the request to her chest while turning to frown at the ice wizard over her shoulder.

"What?" Rizzo asked. "Don't think I can handle it?"

"No, I think you'll go overboard like you've been doing in your last few jobs, and you'll have to take another trip to the Magic Council to apologize personally for destroying something important." Gray retorted.

Rizzo rolled her eyes while thinking of the Magic Council. They were always in her business and getting onto her even when she finishes the job. So what if a few things get broken in between?

"It's not like you have room to talk, Fullbuster." Rizzo said turning to face him fully to poke his chest. "I seem to recall you doing a lot of damage on a few your jobs too."

"Yeah, but I've never had to personally apologize to the Council." Gray pointed out.

Rizzo growled while bumping her forehead against his as she glared at him. He glared in return while pressing his forehead right back against hers.

"Keep pushing it, Frosty, and I'll have you crying for Master once I'm through with you." Rizzo warned.

"Oh yeah?" Gray asked. "Big words, Rizzy. Let's see if you can back them up."

The two's glares intensified as they practically growled at each other like mad animals. The heated anger passing between the two had Nab slowly backing away as many others of the guild noticed the tension building between the two.

"Not even noon and they're already ready to kill each other." Wakaba said chuckling.

"Same old, same old." Krov said from a few tables down. "At least Natsu isn't here to make things worse."

At the mention of her best friend, Rizzo forgot all about Gray while pushing him to the side. He grunted while stumbling slightly, but he was able to keep his footing.

"Now that you mention it, where is Natsu?" Rizzo asked.

She had only came to the guildhall a few moments ago when returning for a job, and had been so eager for another she hadn't realized her fellow pinkette's absence.

Gray frowned at the mention of that fire-munching idiot as Rizzo glanced around the room.

"He got word of a Salamander in another town." Mirajane said as she came around the bar. "He went with Happy to check it out."

"He must think it's Igneel." Rizzo said. "But why would a dragon be in the middle of a town?"

"Idiot probably didn't think about that." Gray said.

"You probably didn't think about it until I said something." Rizzo deadpanned.

Gray narrowed his eyes about to retort when the door to the guildhall was kicked open to slam against the wall loudly.

"We made it back alive!" A familiar voice shouted.

"We're home!" Another voice echoed.

Everyone turned seeing Natsu walking in with Happy with him. Rizzo smiled at the pinkette and the little blue cat. Her guildmates called out greetings to the young wizard and his feline companion.

"Welcome home, Natsu!" Rizzo called out as she waved.

Natsu turned his head seeing Rizzo there, and a large grin pulled across his face.

"Rizz, you're back!" Natsu said.

"Rizz!" Happy called out as he jumped up and down.

Rizzo chuckled then noticed that Natsu and Happy had returned with a new face. Rizzo blinked at the blonde girl curiously. Did she come here to join their guild?

"So, I heard you went all out in Hargeon, Natsu." Krov called out. "Had to go starting troub—"

He never finished his sentence since Natsu kicked him right in the face. Everyone was quite used to stuff like that, so most of them didn't even blink. Though the new girl looked totally freaked out.

"Why'd you do that?!" She exclaimed.

Rizzo just chuckled as she moved to stand near the bar. Looks like Natsu was ready to fight already, and he just got home.

"You lied about that Salamander!" Natsu snapped. "I'm going to kick your butt!"

Krov sat up from where he had been kicked into a table, which had smashed into pieces due to the impact.

"Don't get mad at me!" Krov retorted. "I'm just passing along a rumor I heard!"

"It was just a rumor?!" Natsu demanded.

"You wanna fight?!" Krov demanded.

"Let's go!" Natsu accepted the challenge.

Chaos broke loose in the building, and Rizzo laughed fully as a lot of the members got pulled into the fight. She remained at the bar while even taking a seat to watch as everyone was being pulled into the ruckus.

"Gees, not again." Cana said as she sat down next to Rizzo. "Can't they control themselves?"

Rizzo shrugged her shoulders while happy with the familiar surroundings. This is where she felt most at home. It's the place where her family was. Happy then tried to calm Natsu down, but he got sent flying instead.

"So, Natsu finally made it back, huh?" Gray, who was suddenly by the bar with the girls, asked.

Rizzo blinked noticing that Gray was still only in his boxers, but as long as he wasn't butt-naked, she'd leave him alone.

"It's time we settled things once and for all." Gray said as he walked forward.

Rizzo rolled her eyes at Gray though said nothing since she really didn't care if he got involved with the fight.

"Gray, your clothes." Cana called out.

"I don't have time for that!" Gray snapped as he turned around.

Cana shook her head in annoyance as Rizzo just sat back with the grin spreading across her face again as someone was thrown across the room. If it kept getting more exciting, she'd have to join in too.

"Ya see, I don't date the men here because they have no class." Cana said.

She then proceeded to pick up a large barrel of alcohol to tilt it back to chug the content.

"Come here and fight me, Natsu!" Gray demanded.

Natsu looked over his shoulder at the ice wizard as he was beating up another member of the guild.

"Not until you put some clothes on!" Natsu retorted.

Rizzo then looked towards Elfman as the large man was walking through the calamity with his arms crossed over his chest.

"It's only noon, and you boys are whining like spoiled babies." Elfman said. "I'm a real man. Want me to prove it to you?"

His answer were two fists in the face, which sent him flying through the air over the chaos.

"Butt out!" Natsu and Gray—the owners of said fists—said after sending Elfman flying.

"Man, this is great!" Rizzo said laughing as she held her stomach.

Their new guest was thinking differently as she wondered just what she had signed herself up for. She then looked to Loke as he was chatting it up with his girlfriends.

"Gees, it's so nosy around here, huh?" Loke asked his girls.

A stray glass then hit him on the forehead, which brought a look of annoyance on his face. He got up while trying to play off everything in front of his ladies.

"I'm going to fight." Loke said. "Only to protect you two."

They wished Loke luck as he winked at them, and as their blonde guest was marking him off her list of most eligible bachelor wizards, Rizzo finally got up while guessing she might as well greet their guest. Or at least find out who she is. If she's with Natsu, she must be a new recruit.

"What the heck is wrong with these people?" The blonde asked once she finished marking Loke off her list. "There's not one sane in the whole place."

"You think so?" Rizzo asked as she finally reached the blonde.

The blonde looked at Rizzo with wide eyes as Rizzo stood there with her hands on her hips.

"Y…You're Rizzo Sweeney!" The blonde gasped. "You've been in Sorcerer's Weekly magazine a few times. You've shot photoshoots with Mirajane!"

Rizzo sweat-dropped at the blonde's enthusiasm of meeting her since Rizzo didn't see herself as a big deal.

"Nice to meet you…" Rizzo trailed off since she didn't know the girl's name.

"Oh! I'm Lucy!" The girl said smiling brightly.

Rizzo nodded her head then had to dodge a bottle that was accidently thrown in her direction. Lucy's mouth fell open in shock while wondering how Rizzo had managed to dodge.

"Oh, Rizzo, do we have a new member?"

Both girls turned to see Mirajane standing there with a kind smile on her face.

"It's Mirajane!" Lucy gasped. "In the flesh!"

Rizzo leaned away from Lucy feeling a little bit creeped at by her reaction towards Mirajane.

"Actually, Mira, I don't know." Rizzo said. "She came in with Natsu. Said her name is Lucy."

Mirajane nodded with her smile growing a bit as she turned towards the blonde.

"Um, don't you both think we need to stop them?" Lucy asked.

"It's always like this here." Mirajane said. "I just leave them alone. Besides—"

She was cut off when Elfman, who had been sent flying, hit her at full force. She landed on the ground with him on top of her, but she continued smiling.

"It's kind of fun, don't you think?" Mirajane asked.

She then passed out with Lucy starting to fuss of her with wide eyes. Rizzo snorted shaking her head in amusement. They were really getting into it now. Gray then hit Lucy, which sent them both to the floor. Rizzo frowned when seeing that Gray lost his boxers now leaving him butt-naked. Rizzo's eyes brow twitched in annoyance. She's put up with Gray running around in his underwear, but what she wouldn't put up with is his nudeness.

"Hey, give me back my underwear, jerk!" Gray snapped at Natsu who was laughing.

Lucy cried out 'covering' her eyes, so not to look at Gray's naked body. He walked over to her.

"Excuse me, Miss, may I please borrow your underwear?" Gray asked.

Before Lucy could even react, Gray was socked right in the jaw by Rizzo who had a dark look on her face. Gray hit the floor then rolled right into a table that happened been broken yet, but his impact made it break into pieces. Gray sat up holding his aching jaw as Natsu laughed at his misfortune. Lucy's mouth dropped open in shock. She thought Rizzo might actually be somewhat sane!

"Gray, you pervert!" Rizzo snapped. "Have you no shame?!"

"It's not my fault!" Gray retorted. "Natsu stole my underwear!"

"Don't blame Natsu for you bad stripping habit!" Rizzo yelled.

She attacked him as Lucy watched with wide eyes at how brutal Rizzo was being. The pinkette was super scary at the moment. Lucy was then suddenly swept off her feet by Loke.

"All these guys are so insensitive." Loke said. "A woman has needs."

Loke was then punched in the face by Elfman, who had managed to get up, which caused Loke to drop Lucy.

"Real men speak with their fists, Loke!" Elfman said.

Natsu kicked him in the face to send him flying once more across the room into someone else.

"I told you to butt out!" Natsu snapped.

Rizzo then went tumbling into him when Gray managed to get her off of him. He managed to steady her with his hands as she rubbed her aching jaw.

"Oh, hey, Rizz." Natsu said smiling. "Missed having you around."

As if a flip was switched, Rizzo's annoyed expression was instantly switched with a kind smiling one.

"Aw, Natsu, I've missed you too." Rizzo said as she hugged her best friend.

"Hey, how come you never beat him up?!" Gray demanded after pulling on his boxers. "It's his fault I lost my underwear!"

Rizzo's annoyed expression returned as she turned to look at Gray who looked just as annoyed as her. Before she could reply, Cana spoke up over everyone.

"That's enough you guys." Cana said as she pulled out one of her cards. "I suggest you knock it off."

Everyone turned towards her with her threatening tone seeming to egg them on even more.

"Oh yeah?" Gray asked. "Says who?"

He brought his hands together with the magic circle forming as he built up his magic. Elfman activated his magic as well while looking ready for a fight. Rizzo held out her hand with a green magic circle forming as an electric guitar appeared in her hand seemingly out of thin air.

"If you think this fight is over, think again." Rizzo said grinning. "I just got started, and if anyone is coming out on top, it's going to be me."

Her grin was almost wicked, and had Lucy gulping. Rizzo seemed to be a very scary young woman.

"You punks can be such a nuisance." Loke gripped as he activated the magic in his ring.

Natsu, who wasn't about to be outdone, activated his magic as well the fire forming on his fists.

"I'm ready for ya." Natsu declared.

"They always fight like this?" Lucy asked holding up Happy as if he was a shield.

"Uh-huh." Happy said while smiling.

"You don't seem worried!" Lucy pointed out.

Everyone came to a halt when a large dark figure jumped down into the room from the upper floor. Lucy squeaked in surprise as everyone looked towards the figure.

"Would you fools stop bickering like children?!" He demanded.

The guild members, who had been fighting, all looked away sheepish or coughed nervously. Rizzo even slowly placed down her guitar while knowing better than to keep fighting.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Mirajane said. "I didn't know you were still here, Master."

"Did she just say Master?!" Lucy freaked out.

Natsu bust out laughing cutting through the tension in the air as he placed his hands on his waist.

"Man, talk about a bunch of babies." He teased. "Looks like I won this round you—"

He never finished his sentence since he was stepped on by the Master Makarov, which had Lucy jumping in shock. Rizzo winced knowing that had to hurt.

"Hmm, seems we have a new recruit." Makarov said.

"Yes, sir!" Lucy said nervously.

Rizzo snorted at how jumpy the new girl was as Makarov shrunk down to his usual form. He smiled at the blonde while raising his hand.

"Pleased to meet you!" Makarov said.

"He's tiny!" Lucy said. "This little guy's really in charge here?!"

She had not been expecting the guild master of Fairy Tail to be so small. Especially after seeing him so big.

"Of course he is!" Mirajane said smiling. "Allow me to introduce Fairy Tail Guild Master Makarov!"

Makarov proceeded to jump into the air to flip towards the upstairs' railing, but he hit his head. He righted himself while coughing as he pretended that didn't happen. Makarov then cleared his throat, and everyone in the guild was sure they were about to hear get a lecture for the papers in his hands, which Rizzo was sure were letters sent by the Magic Council.

"You fools did it again!" Makarov snapped. "Look at these letters I received from the Council!"

He shook the papers at them, and some of them actually looked a bit sheepish.

"First, Gray," Makarov began.

Gray looked up with a frown wondering what the Council had to complain about him now.

"Good job on sweeping out that smuggling organization." Makarov said. "But you walked around naked in town afterwards, and ran away after stealing underwear that was drying."

Many of the guild sweat-dropped even though they were used to Gray's stripping problem.

"But wouldn't it be worse if I were naked?" Gray asked.

"What were you doing naked in the public in the first place, Frostbite?" Rizzo asked. "Think of the poor children you scarred for life."

Gray glared over at Rizzo, who stuck out her tongue in return, which had his eyebrow twitching in annoyance.

"Will you two calm down?" Elfman asked.

Rizzo and Gray turned their annoyed looks onto him, which had Makarov sighing.

"Elfman, you had a mission to escort a VIP, but you assaulted him during the mission." Makarov said.

"He said 'men are about education', so…" Elfman trailed off seeming sheepish.

Makarov shook his head as he shifted through more papers sent by the council.

"Cana, drinking 15 big barrels of alcohol, and charging it to the council." Makarov continued, which had Cana frowning since they found her out. "Loke, flirting with councilmember elder Reiji's granddaughter…a certain talent agency charged us for damage compensation, too."

Loke looked away with a drop of sweat going down his cheek while not even wanting to explain his hook up with that elder's daughter. Makarov ruffled through more papers.

"Rizzo," Makarov began. "Though you chased out the herd of leopard boar, you also succeed in destroying half the town of Poppy by chasing them through the streets. You then ruptured a dam in Water Lily Valley, which did put out the forest fire, but also caused water damage to the town. After that you managed to destroy a historic monument in Hyacinth when fighting that gang of thieves. Finally, your latest job in Aster ended with the mayor's personal mansion being turned into shambles! What do you have to say to yourself, young lady?!"

Lucy looked to Rizzo with wide eyes while wondering how she managed to cause so much trouble. She knew the Fairy Tailers were known for taking things too far, but that's just scary how much destruction one member of the guild can cause. Rizzo smiled at Makarov while making an innocent expression as she placed her finger on the dimple on her cheek.

"Sorry, Master." Rizzo said. "I guess I don't know my own strength. So can it really be my fault if a few things were broke?"

Lucy nearly fell over in shock at Rizzo's words and the innocent act as Makarov shook his head with a sigh. He's heard that excuse so many times he was wondering if she'd ever come with anything else.

"You would think you'd know your own strength by now, child." He said then cleared his throat. "Now, Jaser, the list of complaints against you are even longer! Eating the sand sculptures at Akane's annual sand sculpting contest, burying an entire town in sand, three eat and runs, four times you've barged unwanted into—!"

"Um, Master, hate to interrupt, but Jaser isn't even here." Cana said before Makarov could continue. "He's still away on his latest job."

"Same goes for the rest of the Treblemen." Levy added.

Lucy blinked wondering who these Treblemen were, and why one of them ate sand. Didn't that hurt his stomach? And how could it even taste good? Makarov frowned as he clenched the papers in his hand.

"Of course, they're not here." Makarov said then looked to Rizzo. "Rizzo, when those troublemaking brothers of yours return, tell them I wish to speak to them about their latest blunders. Even Breccan and Sven have gotten complaints sent about them."

"Yes, Master." Rizzo said giving a small salute and a grin.

Makarov nodded in return then set his eyes on the one who has caused the most trouble out of all this children.

"And Natsu," Makarov said. "You destroyed the Devon Thief family, but you also destroyed seven other houses that belonged to the townspeople…leveling a historical clock tower in Tully Village. Burning down a church in Freesia. Damaging parts in Lupinus Castle. Nazuna Ravine observatory collapsed and thus stopped operations. Destroying half of Hargeon Port."

Rizzo let out a low impressed whistle. It seemed Natsu had been busy as of late.

"Alzach, Levy, Krov, Reedus, Warren, Bisca, etc." Makarov continued.

Everyone he called out looked away unable to meet his gaze because they did feel bad about causing trouble.

"Have you lost your minds?!" Makarov demanded. "All you kids are good for is getting the higher ups mad at me…However,"

The papers burst into flames in his hands, which confused Lucy. Was it okay for him to do that?

"I say to heck with the Magic Council." Makarov said as he tossed the flaming papers into the air.

Natsu jumped into the air chomping his mouth down on papers as if he was a dog jumping for a treat. He landed on his feet to continue munching on the flames.

"Now listen up, any power that serves past its reason still comes from reason, right?" Makarov inquired. "Magic isn't some kind of miraculous power. It is a talent that only works when the flow of energy inside of us and the flow of energy of the natural world are in perfect sync. To perform magic one must have a strong mind, and the ability to focus. It should take over your being and come pouring out of your soul. If all we do is worry about rules then our magic will never progress. Don't let those blowhards on the Council scare you. Follow the path that you believe in because that's what makes the Fairy Tail guild number one!"

He held up his hand in the Fairy Tail salute as Rizzo called, and everyone cheered while doing the same as their master. Rizzo laughed grinning broadly as she did the same as the others as well. This is why she loved this guild so much. Lucy looked around at everyone while smiling. Looks like she really did pick the right guild to call home.

Rizzo was over in the corner of Fairy Tail strumming her guitar with a soft melody filling the bar. She was leaning against the wall with her feet propped up on a table while slightly humming to herself.

"How come my dad hasn't come back yet?"

The young voice caught Rizzo's attention, and even though she continued strumming she looked up to see Romeo standing in front Makarov who was drinking on top of the bar.

"You're starting to work on my nerves, Romeo." Makarov said. "You're a wizards's son. Have faith in your father and wait patiently for him."

Rizzo frowned as she finally stopped plucking her guitar strings. Macao was still off on his job?

"But, sir, he told me he would be back in three days, and he's been gone for over a week now." Romeo said.

"If I remember correctly he took the job on Mt. Hokabe." Makarov said.

"That's right, and it's not that far from here." Romeo said. "So why won't anyone go look for him?"

"Listen, Kid, your old man's a wizard, and like every other wizard in this guild he can take care of himself!" Makarov said. "Now, go home, have some milk and cookies, and wait!"

Rizzo frowned knowing that Makarov was worried even if he wasn't showing it. Romeo trembled as his hands clenched tightly into little fists.

"Jerk!" Romeo shouted as he punched Makarov in the face before running off. "I hate you all!"

Rizzo sighed as Romeo disappeared out the door. She stood up with the guitar disappearing in a flash of light then she started leaving.

"Hey, Rizzo, where ya going?" Wakaba called after her.

"Home." She said. "I don't live here, ya know."

Everyone watched her leave, and Natsu was quick to follow after nearly breaking the board. He also ignored Nab calling after him. Rizzo easily caught up to Romeo, and she placed her hand on his head to make him stop. He looked up at her in surprise as tears stained his cheeks.

"We're not all jerks, ya know." Rizzo said smiling. "Which is why I'm going to keep you company as Natsu finds your dad, right, Natsu?"

Rizzo and Romeo turned to see Natsu and Happy as they were walking up towards them.

"Right, leave it to me." Natsu said. "Though I'm surprised you're not coming, Rizz."

"I'd love to come help you save Macao." Rizzo said. "And probably beat him for making Romeo worry, but I don't think his pride could handle it if we both showed up."

Natsu nodded his head then pat Romeo on the head before walking off with Happy. Romeo watched them go with worry coloring his expression.

"Hey, don't worry." Rizzo said smiling as she knelt down in front of Romeo. "Believe in Natsu and Happy. They'll bring your dad back for sure."

Romeo nodded his head, which had Rizzo's smiling growing. She stood up while holding out her hand to Romeo. He smiled a bit shyly while taking her hand.

"Come on, can't sit around waiting on an empty stomach." Rizzo said. "Let's get something sweet."

As they were walking away, Lucy came running out of the Fairy Tail guild. She paused when seeing Rizzo and Romeo.

"Going after them, huh?" Rizzo asked.

"Uh, yeah, I…I just want to help is all." Lucy said.

Rizzo blinked at Lucy before a small smile appeared on her face. Looks like the new girl is already pro-Fairy Tail material.

"Well then I leaving it to you to watch after Natsu and Happy." Rizzo said. "Make sure they bring Macao back."

"Right!" Lucy said nodding in determination. "Natsu, wait up!"

Lucy ran after Natsu and Happy who didn't even stop when she called out, so she shouted at them angrily this time.

"Who's that?" Romeo asked.

"Her name is Lucy." Rizzo said. "Now about that treat, I'm thinking about ice cream."

Rizzo, who was sitting outside on some steps with Romeo, looked up at the sky as it turned pink and gold. It was starting to get late.

"Do…do you think they'll be back soon?" Romeo asked.

Rizzo turned towards Romeo as he was trying to hold back tears from leaving down his cheeks.

"I'm 100% sure, Romeo." Rizzo said winking. "Any moment now, Natsu and the others will return with your dad."

Romeo nodded his head as he leaned into Rizzo's side. She put her arm around him to give him some comfort. Rizzo looked up with her eyes immediately noticing the figures coming towards them. She grinned when seeing Natsu supporting a wounded yet still very alive Macao.

"Romeo, look." Rizzo said as she nudged him.

Romeo looked up from where he had his head in her lap. She pointed towards the returning group, and his eyes teared up when seeing Macao.

"DAD!" Romeo shouted running towards Macao.

He jumped Macao who fell backwards hard on the ground, and Rizzo laughed with Natsu at the reunion. Macao sat up while hugging Romeo tightly.

"You're back." Romeo said. "I'm so sorry, Dad."

"No," Macao said. "I'm sorry for making you worry."

Macao then looked at Rizzo over his son's shoulder to nod to her in thanks for keeping his son company. Rizzo smiled nodding her head while glad things seemed to ending in a happy ending.

"No, I can handle it." Romeo reassured him. "Cause I'm a wizard's son."

"Next time those kids tease you, ask them if their dads can take on nineteen monsters because yours can." Macao said.

Rizzo started walking away with Natsu, Happy, and Lucy following after her down the street.

"Natsu, Happy, thanks for your help!" Romeo called after them.

"No problem, kiddo." Natsu called over his shoulder.

"Aye!" Happy added.

"Lucy, thanks for helping them bring my dad back!" Romeo added. "Rizzo, thanks for keeping me company!"

Rizzo raised her hand in the air to acknowledge his thanks as Lucy turned around grinning and waving.

"I'd say this was a good end to the day." Rizzo said.

"Aye!" Happy agreed.
