Chapter 4

"Daaaad, hurry!" Storm whined as the Fullbuster family went through a town.

"We'll get there, don't worry son." Gray said, ruffling his son's hair.

"But we need to beat Nashi."

"Yeah, and we will. Trust me, we won't lose to them. Or Gale, ok? Just be patient."

"Fine." Storm huffed, crossing his arms.

"Are you sure we should've made a bet with Natsu?" Juvia asked her husband, carrying Yuki.

"It'll be fine, I always win bets with him." Gray waved off her concern.

"No... You always tie." Juvia pointed out.

"Well, not this time." Gray smiled. "Oh look, there they are." The family hurried over to an elderly couple.

"Ah, hello!" The man greeted. He was in a striped shirt with grey trousers, wide glasses and going bald. "I take it you are Fairy Tail?"

"Hello sir." Gray greeted. "My name is Gray and this is my wife Juvia. And these are our children, Storm and Yuki. Storm here picked this job."

"Why, what a sweet boy." The lady smiled. She had long, white hair and sharp eyes. "My name is Niki and my husband, Benedict."

"So, what's the problem?" Juvia asked.

"Well, you see." The man's eyes looked sad. "We're trying to transport some party decorations to my grandson's town, as he is having a wedding. But, the path we're taking is dangerous. It has been reported that a group keep attacking and taking goods from any people who pass by. And, in our old age, we can't work our magic like we use to."

"So we just need to protect the wagon?" Gray questioned.

"Yes, that would be appreciated." Niki answered.

"Sounds easy enough." Gray smiled. "What do you think Storm?" He looked at his fun.

"Let's do it!" Storm yelled.

With that, they loaded up the wagon with the decorations needed. It didn't take long, but it seemed like ages as Yuki was determined to practise he water magic on them. After getting everything ready, the Fullbusters sat in the back while the couple began to set off. On the way, they learnt that the couple's grandson was an expert as Illusion Magic, and helped protect the town he lived in.

"Cool!" Yuki said, "Mummy, can we see him?"

"Oh, I'm not sure sweetie." Juvia replied. "He's having a wedding after all."

"Oh its fine." Benedict said from the front. "It's not for a week yet. Beside, I'm sure he'll be happy to see the wizards who helped us."

"Well, if it's alright." Juvia smiled. After ten minutes, a cackle called out.

"Ohhh, what do we have here?" Gray and Juvia got out, looking at the group in front of the wagon. They were all masked, so they were unable to identify them. They assumed the one at the front was the leader.

"Please." Niki begged. "Let us go peacefully, it's for our grandson's wedding!"

"That's unfortunate." The leaded grinned. "Huh?" He looked at Juvia and Gray. "Who are you two?"

"Doesn't matter." Gray growled. "But we're from Fairy Tail. And you're not getting your hands on these."

"Please." The leader yawned. "They're like nine of us, and two of you. Boys, get them!"

The group dashed towards the mages, four onto each. Gray smirked and stripped off his top, showing his bulging muscles. Juvia swooned for a second, before paying attention back to the fight.

Gray just laughed after dodging multiple attacks from the group. They all seemed to specialise in Bullet Magic, shooting Gray with magic ammo.

"Ice-Make: Shield!" Gray said. A small shield formed on his arm, blocking incoming bullets. "Ice-Make: Sword!" In Gray's over hand, a sword appeared, readying Gray for close range combat. That was enough to get two of them to run away. The two braver ones charged towards Gray, hands glowing. Gray didnt even break a cold sweat knocking to two out.

Juvia was also having fun with her enemies. Almost dancing to avoid attacks, her enemies were getting frustrated. Juvia decided to stop dodging. Bullets flew towards her, yet she just smiled as they passed through her water-like body. Even though she couldn't see their faces, she could tell that their jaws that just dropped.

"Water Cyclone." Juvia sighed, knowing that she had to end the battle. A whirl of water washed the group away, screams following as they did so. The parents turned to the last man, who was trembling.

"I can't even be bothered with you." Gray muttered. "Storm, Yuki!" The two children ran out of the wagon.

"Yeah dad?" Storm asked.

"Wanna fight?" Storm's eyes lit up as he faced the leader of the group. Readying his magic, he ran towards him.

"Ice-Make: Hammer!" He yelled, throwing a small ice hammer at the man. It hit him on the head, knocking him backwards.

Yuki followed up the attack. "Ice-Make: Geyser!" Ice sprouted from the ground, dropping the man to the floor. "Water Whip!" Yuki slashed the man with water, producing a yell.

"Good job you two!" Juvia praised.

"Ohhh, thank you." Benedict thanked, joining the group. "Now we can get to our grandson's wedding!"

Hope you all enjoy this chapter. Next will be Gale and her job! Next chapter will be Thursday!
