Chapter One
Time has seemed to go on, however my heart stayed the same. Everywhere I looked, I saw him, anytime I heard his name; the pain never stopped. I sat in my room, looking at myself in the mirror. I looked sick. My red hair looked untamed, while my green eyes looked like I have never slept for days. My skin looked ashy, and pale...The moment he died, I died...
"Hey, hey, are you listening?" Huh, Levy thought, looking up to see Mira looking at her. Mira's arm was extending toward her with what looked like a job flyer. She looked pretty as always, with her white hair and blue eyes. "S-Sorry, I was just enamored in this book." Levy smiles apologetically, marking her page before closing it. Mira smiles then and puts the flyer down in front of her. "Here, I grabbed this flyer for you. It looked like one you could do by yourself, since you know.." Levy heart pounded at her suggestion then her cheeks blushed. "Mira..." She waves her hands around, about to say something when they hear, "For Gajeel's birthday right?" Lucy came up, sitting beside, whispering it. That's right, Levy thought, but she inwardly groans in embarrassment.
Gajeel's birthday was in a few weeks and she wanted to use the money to buy him something. After months of him being in the guild, Levy found out interesting facts about him; including his birthday. Lucy and Mira giggle at Levy's facial expressions, which makes her groan inwardly once again. Suddenly, behind her they hear, "Hey, Ice Princess, put on your clothes!" They all look over to see a repeated scene happening. Gray had taken off his clothing like usual. Juvia blushing over the fact as she grabs his clothes. "Juvia feels so embarrassed." "Shut up hot head! You want to go!?" A fight breaks out among Natsu and Gray, causing chaos. Lucy sighs and says, "Every single day. I swear it is like clock work." After she said that, a chair flies passed her head. "HEY, DON'T BRING YOUR FIGHT OVER HERE!" Levy smiles, watching the scene. She had gotten used to the rambunctious Guild, when she started to reside here. It felt like home.
"Anyway, back to what we were talking about...What kind of job is it?" Lucy starts to look over the flyer, and looks at Mira, a bit surprised. "Eh? Mira-" "Oy, what job?" Gajeel was standing behind Levy, causing her to panic. How could I not have heard his footsteps, Levy thought as her face turns red. "Just a small job!" She answers quickly. At the same time, Gajeel and Levy grab for the flyer, causing Levy to retract her hand away quickly when there hands touched. Gajeel felt her hand, pausing for a mere second, before looking at the flyer. "What is this? Fake couple needed to catch, womanizing murder?" "Ehh?!" Levy finally looks at the flyer:
Help Wanted: Catch murder.
In desperate need of finding a couple(fake or not), to find murder. Murders happen at Pinto Inn, of Town Asuka. Couple comes in, only one survives. Our town is in need of help! Free food, clothes and a place to stay. Reward: 3,000.
Levy looks at Mira, surprise didn't even cover her face. She was tricked! "MIRRRAA!"
