Cleo is Back. Ok not really but I will try to update as often as I can. Please review because reviews (even one liners) really really really motivate me!
This chapter is a little bit shorter than I wanted it to be but you will understand at the end why I wanted to end this chapter there!
"Wake UP!" Natsu was woken by a little body leaping from a chair and straight on top of him. He grunted and was quick to wrap his arms around his assailant, who squealed and squirmed as Natsu sat and blinked his eyes open to look at his younger brother.
"Happy…" He narrowed his eyes at the boy haired child.
"Erm…. Morning Natsu!" he gave Natsu a cheery smile to which Natsu shook his head with a small chuckle. "Papa said to come wake you… Something 'bout an adventure!"
Natsu chuckled and released Happy. "Oh yeah, I'm starting that adventure package this week… Go tell Dad I'll be ready in a minute ok?" Happy nodded and bounced off the bed scurrying out of the room. Natsu sighed and threw the covered from his lower body and climbed out of bed in his boxers. He dressed in black white swimming shorts and a black t-shirt before he grabbed a bag to throw in a towel and a bottle of water from the fridge in his room.
Igneel and Happy where waiting in the little connecting living room between the bedrooms, "Ready Natsu?" Igneel asked as he reached down to take Happy's hand. "Got your copy of the key?"
"Yeah, let's go," Natsu yawned and stretched his arms as he followed his family to the door, the resort had an all you can eat breakfast buffet set up in the restaurant in the mornings so they headed down there to eat.
"What a great morning~" Levy smiled as she led the way into the restaurant. Lucy was just behind her, Erza and Juvia lagging a little behind yawning and still looking half asleep.
"Juvia thinks it is too early…" Juvia lent on Erza whose eyes were closed as the group made their way to the restaurant.
"Don't worry Juvia I'm sure you'll change your tune once you've had some coffee." Lucy smiled at her friend as she pulled out her chair. "And you too Erza, they have strawberry cake on the buffet."
Almost on cue Erza's head snapped up and eyed Lucy, "Strawberry cake? You're not lying to me are you Lucy?"
"No Erza." Lucy chuckled, hanging her beach bag over the arm of her chair. "Come on Levy, We'll fetch the coffee while they watch our bags, maybe they'll be more awake when we get back."
"Ok Lu-chan." Levy smiled and put her bag on her chair before she and Lucy headed towards the bar to order their friends some cappuccinos, Lucy had a hot chocolate and Levy some British breakfast tea. By the time they returned to the table Erza seemed a lot less moody but Juvia's head was resting against the table.
"Juiva." Lucy put down the drinks and shook her blue hair friend's shoulder. "Come on, it is time to wake up!"
"Juvia doesn't want to." Came the muffled reply, however she did raise her head and reach for her coffee.
Lucy smiled "Ok, now everyone is starting to wake up a little I vote we eat." Erza nodded and Levy smiled in agreement. "You two go ahead then, I'll stay with sleeping beauty here till the coffee kicks in."
"Ok! Welcome to the Fairy Tail Resort Teen Adventure Week!" The over excited girl before them look to be only about 12 herself, with long blonde hair and wearing a pink dress. "I'm Mavis your team leader and before you ask, NO IM NOT 12!" A small chuckle could be heard from the group of boys but Mavis chose to ignore it. "There are other groups around this week but your eight are one little team. You'll work together to beat the other teams in a series of different activities. So we'll start today with… Team Building!"
Natsu glanced around at the other people in the 'team'. There were three other guys one seemed to be wearing far too many layers of clothing or the weather and another wasn't wearing nearly enough! The third guy seemed fairly normal, but Natsu did notice a tattoo over his eye, that meant something he was sure… but he didn't know what…
"As I am aware you girls are already good friends I ask that you each pair up with one of the boys for our first exercise." Mavis smiled. "Ok, so let us all get introduced. Ladies first~"
The group gathered around into more of a circle so they could all more or less see each other. Natsu noticed Lucy and smiled in her direction as she smiled back with a small wave which spawned, of course, a questioning look from Levy. Lucy rolled her eyes and just pushed her friend forward to introduce herself. "I-I'm Levy…Levy McGarden…" She gave the group of boys a small smile.
Natsu smiled and stepped forward with a confident, "Nice to meetcha Levy, I'm Natsu Dragneel." He jabbed his thumb at himself, "Would yer like to be my partner?"
"O-Oh…thank you." She smiled and Lucy pushed her forward a little more and sending Natsu a quick thankful glance.
"I guess I'm next!" Lucy smiled "I'm Lucy Heartfilia, nice to meet you all."
Jellal was nudged forward by Natsu and he nodded to Lucy with a straight face "I am Jellal Fernandez." Lucy heard a sharp gasp from behind her and recognized it to be Erza, but when her friend said nothing she stepped forward to shake her partners hand.
"A-Ah! I am Juvia!" Juvia smiled, her eyes were trailed on the male who was stood there is only a pair of swimming shorts. However it was a different guy who stepped forward.
"Gajeel Redfox." That was all he said before awkwardly patting Juvia's head before moving away.
Erza stepped forward but instead of looking to the remaining male she steadied her gaze to Jellal. "Erza Scarlett." Lucy looked to Jellal to see his head snap up at the sound of her voice and his eyes widen.
"Scarlet?!"
"Jellal…"
