Innocence is a Virtue

Luna: 9

Luna opened the doors to the guildhall of Fairy Tail and, as to be expected, noise burst out as if waiting to be released. It seemed like many of the members were still in the guildhall even though it was early in the morning. She saw her aunt Cana sipping away her booze. Lance Dreyar was present and speaking animatedly to Romeo. Kinana wasn't working and, instead, was talking to Lisanna and Juvia. Freed kept to himself, but his eyes looked peeled for the sight of a taken Dragon Slayer. Aine and Lance were two enrapt in their affections for anyone to truly notice them. Mary Jane was busy playing a game with Silver Fullbuster and Cane. Gary was out with Nashi. Luna knew that due to Nashi telling her two nights ago the Master wanted her to tag along with Gary on a mission today. Igneel and Luke were God knew where, but Luna didn't exactly care at the moment.

Luna shut the doors and sighed, tuning out the noise. She just couldn't understand it. What exactly had she heard? She didn't understand at all.

She slipped into a bar stool and sighed again, resting her head on her hands. What did it all mean? She hadn't heard anything like it! And she lived in a forest for crying out loud! How could she not know?

"Oh, good morning, Lu," came the bubbly voice of Mira.

Luna didn't even look up. "Hi, Aunt Mira," she said in her absentminded state.

Mira arched an eyebrow. "Are you okay, Lu? You seem to be thinking an awful lot," she pointed out.

Luna looked into Mira's blue eyes and asked with heavy seriousness, "Can I have your advice on something?"

Mira nodded encouragingly. "Of course, sweetheart, anything. What is it?"

"I heard some weird noises last night… And I don't know what they are," Luna confessed, furrowing her eyebrows in thought.

Mira cocked her head. "'Noises'?" she echoed. "Oh, that's nothing to worry about, sweetie. That was probably just an animal."

"That's what I thought at first, too!" Luna insisted. "But they came from Mom and Dad's room!"

Mira nearly fell over. Instead, she opted to widen her eyes in surprise. "Really?" she gasped.

Luna nodded vigorously. "Yes!"

Mira felt herself begin to sweat. There was no way a poor, innocent girl heard such noises. Perhaps she mistook the noise as just muffled conversation. "Are you sure they weren't talking?" Mira checked. She hoped that was all it was.

Luna furrowed her eyebrows again and frowned. Mira privately remarked how much she looked like her mother when she was thinking. "Well… I heard them talking… Maybe that's it."

"That could be!" So Mira hoped. "But what type of noises were you hearing exactly?"

Luna hummed thoughtfully. "Well… When I woke up, I heard Mom yell Dad's name really loud."

Mira's stomach dropped.

"And then Dad said something about Mom having to be quiet or she'd wake me up." Luna's frown deepened. "Then their talking stopped and weird noises came."

Mira was sweating profusely now. "What type of noises, Lu?"

"It's like when I hurt Igneel and he keeps crying about how I 'killed him'," Luna described. "But it sounded all funny. Mom was making it mostly. I thought she was getting hurt with all that weird noise she was making! And you know what's even weirder?"

Mira smiled shakily. "No. What?"

"I heard Dad ask if she liked that! How can she like something that makes her sound like that? She sounded like she was getting strangled!"

"I'm sure that's not the case, sweetheart," Mira assured. However, in her mind, her anxiety was getting to her. How was she supposed to maintain Luna's innocence if she was already hearing things?

Luna nodded. "But she did! And then everything got loud again. I couldn't make out everything." She pouted—something she picked up from her father indefinitely. "I wish I had special hearing like Dad and Igneel."

Mira thanked any god out there that she didn't.

"Anyways, then Dad was saying really weird stuff to Mom, like how he couldn't hold back anymore and stuff."

Mira wanted to crawl into a hole.

"And then he began shouting, but he wouldn't finish his sentence. He sounded like he was being strangled too."

"Oh my God!" Mira cried. Oh, such a young girl to hear such things!

Luna snapped her fingers in realization. "That's why Mom said!" She looked at her aunt curiously. "What does it all mean though? Were my parents trying to kill each other?" Her eyes widened in alarm. "Were they being killed? They didn't come out of their room this morning… What if they're dead?" she panicked.

Mira inwardly smiled at the young Dragneel. She was like her father in many ways in terms of her thought process. To others, such a steamy description would be open to jokes about what the couple did in their bedroom. Loud, rowdy sex. But to a young Luna and teenage Natsu, they would be relatively clueless and would rarely think about the opposite of sex.

Ignorance was bliss. Or maybe it was innocent is a virtue. Either worked.

Mira put a calming hand on Luna's shoulder and smiled. "I'm sure your parents are fine," she soothed. "But what they were doing was something very grown-up. And I don't want you repeating that stuff, okay?"

Luna nodded obediently. "Okay, Aunt Mira," she agreed.

"Good. Now how about I get you some breakfast?" Mira suggested.

Luna shrugged. "Okay. But can I ask one more thing?"

Mira nodded. "Anything."

"Dad told Mom she was good with her mouth. Does that mean she's a clean eater?"

Mira felt herself sweating again. Such a poor, innocent girl…

A/N:

Hello, mis amigos. So how these stories work, they will be one-shots of the Dragneel family featuring those in and out of the guild. For example, you will see romance between Luna and Gale, Nashi and Gray, Lance and Aine, and any of the other child romances. Some of the shorts will be when they are months old, others will e when they are "of age" depending on my mood.

I would like to announce that if any of you have any prompts you would like me to do, please PM me your prompts! These prompts came from a few friends of mine, to be honest. Give me a prompt and I will make sure I will add you as my Inspired By.

I cannot give you a constant update of these shorts. These will be sporadic, but hopefully continuous. Like The Fairy Mini-Shots, this will always be complete! I hope you enjoyed them!
