CHAPTER THREE

"Wendy...Wendy…" I stated lamely as I knocked on Wendy's door.

"Ah.. I'm coming… Maia-san? What...oh yeah… The mission. One sec, I need to get changed," Wendy answered, half-asleep.

I waited for a few minutes, whistling a tune that reminded me of my home for fourteen years, the clouds.

The sky is bright,

The land is happy,

Tonight we celebrate,

The festival of light…

Here we laugh,

Here we play,

Until the day,

When we can't pray…

Gods of Life,

Gods of Wind,

Gods of Clouds,

Tonight we sing to the Wind…

"Uwah, Maia-san! That was so beautiful," a peppy Wendy stated as her blue pigtails flowed in the wind. "Do you know where we are going?"

"Well first I think we should go to Fairy Tail to get some breakfast and extra supplies. Then we'll head out. Okay?" I replied with a clear sense of determination.

"Okay!" Wendy agreed with Carla nodding on her shoulder.

We trekked to Fairy Tail where we were served by Mirajane who wished us the best for our journey. She gave us some extra bread and some dried trail mix.

"Have fun on your first mission, Maia!" Mirajane happily cheered.

"Okay! I'll bring back a souvenir!" I replied with a wave.

Wendy, Carla, and I began to trek down to the train station.

MIRAJANE'S POV

"Mira! Have you seen Maia-chan?" Gildarts asked frantically.

"Yes, Gildarts. She was here just a few hours ago. Why? Did you need her? She should be at the train station now," Mira answered with a frown.

"UWAH! Mira...Everyone! Maia… Maia accidentally took an S CLASS MISSION!" Gildarts exclaimed.

"AHHHH!" everyone shrieked.

"Wait… Didn't Natsu and I go on an S Class mission on my first day here?" Lucy asked.

"Hrm? Ah, Luce, you're right!" Natsu agreed with a nod. "Maia will be fine."

"But...But she took Wendy!" Gildarts yelped.

"WENDY! Our healer! Our friend! Our POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT!" the entire guild shouted.

"We have to go get her!" Lisanna yelled.

"Yes!" everyone agreed.

The entire group of Fairy Tail wizards searched for the two mages and Carla, but they were no where to be found. Did Maia disappear again? But why would she take Wendy Marvell, the Sky Dragon Slayer with her?
