HEY PEOPLES! I'm back with another story ^^ Kinda rushed on this one though.

P.S. I'm going on a vacation, which means I probably won't update for a while :/


"How bout we get right down to business, Gray," Erza grinned and turned her head, "to what reason am I being stalked?"

Gray smirked, he knew he couldn't hide his presence from Titania. "Don't you think that was a bit hard on Mira back there?" What a random topic, but it's the best he can come up with for the moment.

Erza shrugged, her armors clanged together.

"You know this is bound to be disastrous, right?" His amusement only increased at her silence.

She frowned at the comment, "The mission? I… It's a mission, my responsibility, and I'll make sure it is done right." Her attitude never changes.

Let me come with you is what he wanted to say but instead, "You shouldn't isolate yourself, Erza, we're nakama right?"

"I think… that you should worry about yourself first, Gray." The words were not offensive whatsoever, though her voice was icy and sharp, and it stung him straight through the heart.

"Erza…" He tried again.

Though the armored mage turned her head from him, "I'm going to pack," with a flip of her braid, she walked away from him.

She was cold, maybe as cold as his ice, but he knew somewhere inside her, there is warmth just like the color of her hair.

As soon as Erza walked into the guild after packing, she knew what was coming for her. The chair still smothered with glue came flying straight for her. Suddenly reequipping into her lightest clothes, she jumped past the door. Even with her amazing dodging abilities, her bare arm still scraped against the still wet glue.

Clenching her fists tight, she turned to see her usual rival, with an aura more dangerous than ever.

Erza, calm yourself down, you're stuck with this girl for the next mission. Calm yourself! Taking in a deep breath, she walked right past the surprised girl and sat on the chair.

Looking at the her arm, still wet with the superglue, her anger rose. Don't touch it, just wash it off with water. With one last sigh, Erza walked behind the counter, desperately searching for water yet still keeping her calm appearance.

"Gray! Let's fight!" Huh… She thought he was half-dead after yesterday. She watched in amusement as the pink-haired boy stuck his face right up to the unaware ice mage.

"Out of my face, slanty eyes!" Gray pressed his hand against the fire mage's face, forcing his head out of the range of his sight. That's strange, Gray's apparently not in the mood for a fight.

"I said, fight me! Droopy eyes!" Retorted Natsu, he was not one to give up.

Honestly, she always thought the nicknames were directed at the wrong person.

Getting up from her crouching, she walked right into their path.

"How bout you two get your behinds up and keep a decent distance away from each other!" She said calmly, her hair covering her eyes, adding the fury she had with Mira into her aura.

"Aye sir!" The two hugged each other with those awkward smile, "we're like best friends, isn't that right Gray?"

"All you guys ever do is cause me trouble!" Maybe that was a little harsh, but her anger was just magnifying by the second.

This was unlike her, taking her anger out at her comrades. She felt shocked herself, and very, very disappointed at her attitude. Though she cannot lose her composure in front of those two delinquents. So she did the only thing she can do, bailing again.

The young girl headed for the door, with just a turn of her head, the atmosphere changed.

The fire mage glared at her back, "who does she think she is? Telling us to not fight even though she fights Mira all the time." Natsu pouted, he was not as powerful as Erza, but one day he will be!

The black haired mage just shrugged, "Leave it alone Natsu." Her words was icy, like when they were outside the guild. She was the only one that can hurt him, yet when can she realize that?

"Hey, Gray, how bout you pick a fight with her? You never do that anymore!" With a hard nudge of his arm, he caught the ice mage off guard and sent him stumbling towards the back of the scarlet haired girl.

Okay, Natsu did not mean for that to happen. Gray was not one to be unfocused like just a second ago. He expected Gray to nudge him right back, but this is just a funny day.

"Gray? What—"

A crash sounded throughout the room.

"Kids, I'd love it if I don't have to fix that front door six times a month!" Sighed the master, sitting cross-legged as always on the table.

Every single eyes were focused on the now cracked door, even the arrogant boy on the second floor who barely ever shows his face.

"Serves her right." Mirajane grinned at the two figures on the sandy floor. She knew all hell is going to break lose soon, but that just excites her more.

"Hell yeah." An unexpected voice agreed with her. Surprised, Mirajane turned her head up and met the mocking gaze of the blonde mage. Did they just… agree with… NO! With a scowl, both of them turned their head back to the main scene.

Erza was, no doubt, pissed. How could she have let her guard down as she walked out?

On the other hand, Gray was actually very happy. First of all, he caught the great Titania off guard, which is oh-so-rare in this guild. Second of all, when he landed, there was not pain. Though just seconds later, he realized what had cushioned his fall and all hell froze.

Erza's usually braided scarlet hair was scattered all over her face while the ice mage landed right on top of her.

"Oh.. oh god… I… I'm sorry…" He stuttered, his heart pounded and his blood boiled. He will have hell to pay for this.

"How about you stop apologizing and get off of me Gray?" Her voice was calm, but filled with venom.

Seconds later, he was still on top of her.

"Ehhhh?" The whole guild tilted their head. Did Gray want to die?

Honestly, Gray tried to get up, no kidding. The reason why he didn't?

"Oh hell…" Erza exclaimed as she looked at her arm and Gray's usual bare arm. The wet glue had settled and hardened.

They're now faced with two decisions, either they stick together or Gray loses his arm. Judging from her face, the odds weren't in his favor.

"O—Okay, we can work this out Erza… Let's not get violent." He tried to reason this out calmly, but he cannot keep the pleading out of his voice.

Though she wanted to just tore that arm off of him, yes she definitely wanted to make him suffer for this, she could not. Finally, keeping her anger right under the bar, she grabbed him by his shoulder and yanked him up with her.

"If you don't do what I tell you, Gray, I will tear this nuisance off between us, you understand?" She was so good at threatening him.

"Ye… Yes ma'am," that was all he choked out, for he knew she would not hesitate twice to do so.

"Hey didn't you hear me, Armor girl?" An annoyed voice sounded, "I said it's either you hurry up and go or I'll ditch you!"

Mirajane walked right past the two awkward mages, "What? Ice boy's coming too?" She frowned at those two. They were acting strange, just standing there in complete silence. Then she looked at their arms and almost doubled over laughing.

"What—What is this about?" It was hard to speak through her laughter, and it was not until a hand, no two hands, flew out and punched her in the stomach did she stop laughing.

"That's what I should be asking you Mira!" Erza was mad, and it's just Mirajane's luck that she is going to take her anger out at her.

"We're stuck together like glue."


Once again, I rushed on this, but I hope you enjoyed it ^^

Btw, to those who have read Fairy tail Chapter 220, let's all hope Mirajane did not die T.T
