I'm glad you all came." Erza said as she saw her comrades gather around in her office, she was a little surprised that Ultear and Meredy came along as well. "I assume you all already know the plan? I would like to get moving soon, so if you have any questions please ask them now." She explained, predicting that Natsu will be the first.
The pink haired wizard was the first to shoot up his hand. Oh look...I was right. Erza thought to herself. "Yes Natsu?" He brought his hand down so he could cross his arms, "Do you even know where that old hag is?" He asked, not even remembering the lady's name. Erza became irked by his tone, "Yes I know where Porlyusica is! She's been in the same place she has always been!" She yelled, Natsu fell/melted to the floor in fear. "Okay Erza, sorry to annoy you." He choked out. Jellal failed to hold back a small laugh at the exchange, he was relieved when he realized no one heard him. "Natsu get up." Lucy demanded, knowing that if he kept messing around they would never get moving. He got up instantly, not wanting to piss of Lucy. She could be pretty scary if you pushed the right buttons.
"Gray! Put on a shirt!" The blonde yelled, as she saw the ice wizard standing there practically half naked. He looked down not even recalling taking it off, "W-well put on some pants if your gonna say that!" He shot back, putting on a white T-shirt with blue short sleeves. Lucy glared, knowing he was referring to her short black pleated shirt that she paired with a pink tank. "THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY OUTFIT!" She shouted, a vain began popping out of her forehead. Gray backed down, "Okay chill." He said, not wanting to trigger her anymore.
"Can you two stop your meaningless bickering? I would like to get going." Erza said, turning around to take her leave. Jellal, Meredy and Ultear followed closely behind her. The rest of the Fairy tail group lagged behind a little. "Hey Natsu! How's my flying?" Happy asked with a hand over his mouth to hold back his laughter. Natsu glared at him, knowing that the blue exceed was taunting him for not having magic. He's been doing that ever since the The Crash. "Oh shut up! Now I know what I'm doing first when I get my magic back!" Natsu yelled, Happy looked at him, worried that he might regret teasing his bestfriend. "And that's frying you with a fire dragon roar!" He continued. Happy went wide eyed, but was relieved that he didn't make the threat about food. Natsu smirked, "And I'll go on a job and buy a whole bunch of fish just for myself, and eat all of it in front of you!" Happy went teary eyed, "Please no! I'm sorry for taunting you! Do anything but that!" He begged. Natsu crossed his arms and smirked, ignoring him. Carla rolled her eyes, "Not everything is about food Tom cat." She mumbled.
"Can you both just shut up? It's really annoying hearing you argue!" Gray complained. "Shut up ice faggot! And hearing you and Lucy fight is any better?" Natsu shot back, Gray glared. "What did you just call me fire breath?"
"You heard me ice princess!" Lucy became more aggravated as they continued shooting insults at each other, it was also painful to listen to, considering their comebacks suck. "How about both of you shut your mouths!" She yelled at them, Natsu and Gray looked back for a second but then ignored her and continued fighting anyway. Lucy glared daggers at their backs and gritted her teeth, "Did you just ignore me?" She said in a demonic tone. Both wizards looked back in fear.
"I hope you guys are getting along back there." Erza said, calmly looking back over her shoulder. "Yes we are m'am!" Natsu and Gray said in union. "Good." Erza replied, regaining her focus on what's ahead of her. Lucy sweatdropped as she witnessed the exchange, she decided to cut back a bit and just enjoy the scenery around her.
"Erza, who did you leave in charge of looking after things down in the market?" Lucy asked, just realizing that someone had to be in charge while the red head was away. "Oh I left Mira in charge." She answered, Lucy sighed in relief, remembering the time when Erza left Gray charge. The whole market nearly crashed because Gray wanted to have a brawl with Natsu leaving no one to correctly look after things. Erza was absolutely pissed when she returned, and that landed both wizards bed ridden for over a week. She let out a small giggle at the memory.
Erza tried to maintain her cool and focus her attention and thoughts at her surroundings, she tried to enjoy the wonderful scenery of the trees and the clear blue sky. Oh how she tried. What do I do? What do I do? He's right behind me and we almost kissed yesterday! Is he thinking about me? Is my walking okay? Questions taunted her in her mind, even though she's portrayed as a fearless warrior, she couldn't help the panic. She wished she could reequip into her heart kreuz armor, but until she had her magic back she was stuck with the casual outfit she had on yesterday. Maybe I should've done laundry and wore different clothes? He must think I'm weird for wearing the same outfit, whatever he's wearing the same clothes too. Damn it Erza, you're a warrior and the owner of the black market, stop losing your shit over a guy! She tried to convince herself to just relax and pay no more attention to the guy in back of her, it was almost like trying not to think. Hard and frustrating.
"We should be there in about an hour." Erza announced, Meredy instantly felt relieved that she would no longer have to be a victim of hearing Gray and Natsu's meaningless bickering. She almost went to stick Erza after them, but then again she couldn't bare the thought of her yelling too.
"So Jellal..." Ultear said in a low tone, so Erza couldn't hear. "When are you gonna tell Erza that you like her?" She asked, wanting to mess with him. She already knew that he loved her, she just wanted to get the ball rolling already. Jellal's face took a shade of red, almost the same color as Erza's hair. "I don't know what you're talking about." He denied, even that didn't sound convincing. Luckily she let it go, "Alright then, don't tell me. But here's just a piece of advice, tell her the truth while you can. Countless people wait for the right moment to do so, but by then it's already too late." She said, referring to her mother and wishing she could've told her mom that she loved her, just one last time. Jellal took her words into consideration, he had some thinking to do.
"Everyone! Look up ahead!" Erza yelled without looking back, everyone looked up from their conversations or useless arguing to focus their attention to what was going on. Straight ahead of them stood a large monster towering at about fifteen-twenty feet, it was similar to monsters that they fought on previous missions. It was usually easy to take down. Erza looked to make sure everyone was prepared, she was considering taking it on by herself, like the over achiever she was.
"Erza look out!" She heard Jellal yell to her, she looked towards the monster in an instant to discover that his giant arm was swinging at her trying to attack. She leaped over it at the last moment, she had an idea. She turned around and sprinted straight towards Lucy, "Um Erza? What are you doing?" The blonde mage asked loudly with fear, imagining the red head using her for bait. But instead of doing that, Erza just simply swiped her black whip. "Hey!" The blonde called out to her, but then realized that the weapon would probably get better use with Erza instead of her.
"Be careful Erza!" Wendy called out to the red head who was about to face the beast head on. "Thanks I will!" She called back as she started to attack the monster with the whip head on, she instantly began to get flashbacks of her fairy woman days. She smiled, wishing she could reequip into that outfit for the fun of it.
Natsu snickered as he watched Erza beat up the monster with the whip, "Whats so funny?" Lucy asked, trying not to sound irritated. "Its fairy woman!" He yelled, laughing. He remembered when Erza, a.k.a 'Fairy Woman' beat up some bad guys using the whip. "What?" Jellal asked Natsu, confused. Natsu calmed down his laughing and began telling Jellal the story, "Yeah she was obsessed with being fairy woman and began acting weird all day." He said, Jellal chuckled at the thought of Erza wearing a superhero costume.
Meanwhile...
Erza quickly dodge another attack and landed on her feet on the ground, she took this as an opportunity to wrap the whip around the monster's legs, causing him to lose his balance. "Fairy woman punch!" She unintentionally blurted before landing a blow to the monster's face. Lucy sweatdropped at the thought of her whip being used for roleplay purposes...again.
Erzafelt accomplished watching the monster fall to the ground unconscious. What an ugly thing you are. She thought to herself as she briefly looked over the monster's features, dark blue skin, bald head, one eye. Everything that was considered cringe worthy.
She turned around to face her comrades who almost looked shocked that she took on the thing by herself, that's when she saw Natsu snickering. "What's so funny Natsu?" She asked, Natsu could hardly contain his laughter. "Fairy woman punch!" He yelled and punched the air, mimicking her. She even saw Jellal chuckle lightly. He still couldn't believe that Erza Scarlet would claim the name Fairy woman. "I heard about your time being fairy woman." Jellal said, a smile formed on his face. Erza laughed slightly, already figuring out that Natsu must've been the one to tell him the story. She wasn't the least bit of embarrassed, she was taking pride in wearing fashion that was comfortable and suited her attitude in achieving justice.
"Yeah yeah." She answered, rolling her eyes playfully. "Let's get moving!" She announced, getting back to being serious. "We already wasted enough time as it is. I want to get to Porlyusica's as soon as possible." She said, turning around to take her leave. "Um Erza!" Lucy called, the red head looked over her shoulder. "Yes?" She answered. Lucy walked over to her, "My whip please." She said, holding out her hand. "Oh yeah that's right." Erza said, instantly feeling embarrassed. She handed over the weapon and then turned back around and cleared her throat. "Alright let's go!"
...
Alright that was chapter four, I just felt that it was right to bring back Fairy woman, sorry I just had too! Also I apologize for any grammar mistakes.
