First day of class already ended and then the blonde's lovable and over protective brother and "spy" friends are really worried...
And right now they are at Erza Scarlet's Mansion, gather at the hidden room of the Scarlet's
"Laxus! What is happening? I-I haven't seen her since the last mission" worriedly said by Erza.
"Tsk. Spetto-san said that she left this morning to go to the Academy." Laxus said worriedly "What if someone knows her identity as a spy and tried to do something to her, just like what happened to them"
"Toya calm down, we all know Lucy is an amazing girl so she'll be alright and if ever someone tried to assault her the one who assault her is probably the one we should worried" Freed joke as he try to ease the tension building up in the room.
"Freed! I don't have the time for your jokes now" Frustratingly yelled by Laxus
Making Yuki shocked for a moment and said "Mm. Warui (Sorry)..."
"Laxus I received a mail from Mira and Grey" Tomoyo said as she grab a laptop and opened it." They said they'll be back here with some news."
"See, Laxus everything will be alright" Freed said, as he assured the worried Laxus.
"Yeah, I'm really sorry for shouting at you just awhile ago." Laxus said as he calms down a little.
The tenseness in the room is finally calming down for a little bit, Until a loud BANG was heard from the door revealing a silver haired girl and a half naked guy.
"Grey! Mira!" exclaimed by Erza "Finally your here
"Grey...your clothes" Freet said
"Uwaah!" Exclaimed by Eriol, still panting. "Anyway lend me that laptop first
"E-eh! Ye-yeah" Erza said unsure by what is going on but still handed him the laptop.
"Tnx, can I also borrow some cable or chords?" Grey said this time catching his breath.
"O-okay!" She said as she gets the chords.
"Baka-Laxus! I-I've he-heard from Evergreen and the others, that Sakura-chan is suddenly assigned in a mission!" Mira said while panting
"Eh! Mission!" Confusedly asked by Laxus and Freed.
"Mm. It seems that this morning while Lucy is about to go to the school, she was suddenly given a mission about getting back some drug." Mirajane said as she get a map and place it in the table. Everyone gather at the table.
"So..Mirajane, give us some more details." Freed said as he stare at the big map placed on the table.
"Yo-you see the location is North-East from here, 500 to 600 kilometers away from here, the former toy company." Mira said as she points it out to the map.
"Yup...that Toy company is the Go-Kart, it is shot down 3 years ago because of sudden circumstances" Gray said as he types fast at the keyboard. "And-the owner is..."
"Eucliffe.." Erza said cutting of Eriol's words"The owner is Eucliffe Sting". Making everyone including Gray stare at Erza's direction.
"Eh? Erza you know her?" Mira asked
"It is not her," Erza said while looking away from the gang.
"Huh?" said by Mira as Laxus and Freed stare at the red haired girl confusedly.
"Eucliffe Sting's gender is male, BUT nobody has ever seen the mastermind behind the TOY company not even the vice-president or any employee has seen him." Grey said as he stare back at the screen "Some people even doubt that Eucliffe Sting existed"
"So If that person is the president of that cereal company where is she/he?" Mira asked.
"No one knows the whereabouts of Eucliffe Sting until the accident that happened 3 years ago" Grey seriously said.
"What accident is it!?" asked by Mira. Until out of nowhere Erza said in a low voice.
" It may be misery not to sing at all,
And to go silent through the brimming day;
It may be misery never to be loved,
But deeper griefs than these beset the way. '
Filling the the whole room in silence, a heavy atmosphere surrounding them...
"Er...Erza?" Mira nervously asked.
"Life's tragedy, by Paul Laurence Dunbar" Freed said
"An African-American poet in the late 19TH and 20TH centuries" Laxus said as he stare a the map laid in the table.
"It is said that everyone inside that building vanished" Grey said as he continue to type.
"Umm. Gray what do you mean by vanished.?" Mira asked totally confused by what is happening right now.
"Well... Mirajane they did not actually vanished!" Freed said in his sing-song voice
"Ha-hai!?" Mira said unable to comprehend the things that is happening right now.
"They did not vanished!" Erza said in a cold and distant tone "Their existence was erased!"
As Erza's words echo through out the room, all of them were silent.
"Erza, it seems that you know something, Something that isn't written in any tabloids, things that even the upper ups doesn't know" Gray seriously stated.
"Erza please let us hear what you know." Mira said as she stare at the trembling girl.
"Eucliffe Sting is my cla-No...mine and Lucy's lower classmen 3 years ago." Erza said, not even bothering to look at Mira's eyes.
Another silence is filling up in the room, until a weird sound shattered the silence surrounding them..
*Beep...
*E-r-za-"...
*Beep...
"E-eh! What is that sound!" Mira asked as she looked around the room "Erza your bracelet is beeping..!" And upon hearing those words Erza's eyes widen then she pressed the G-clef "charm" on her bracelet
"Lucy! Where are you!?" Erza exclaimed worriedly, forgetting the thing that they were talking about.
"Erza, shhh! Please don't yell so loudly!" Lucy said in a whispered town. Laxus, upon hearing the voice of his beloved sister, quickly grab Erza's hand and worriedly said, "Oi, Lucy explain to me everything, NOW!"
"Shh.. Oni-chan keep it low, please I am currently infiltrating the enemy's hideout"Lucy whispered in annoyance.
"Tch. Is that what you're suppose to say when people here are worried to death!" Laxus exclaimed in an angry tone, but deep inside he was really relieved that his sister is safe...yet.
"Yah, Lucy! Never mind your brother, we heard your circumstances from Ever and the others"
Freed said in a serious tone "We will assist you in your mission, okay~"
"Mm. Thanks Freed-senpai, you are really different from my loud mouthed and unreliable ONI-chan" Lucy said happily.
"O-oi! You! I can hear you" Irritatedly said by Laxus
"Lucy, do you have enough gadgets or weapon with you!" Mira asked as she pushed Laxus away and handed Erza a speaker and a mini-microphone. "How about your MP!?
"Yup~ no need to worry Mira-san!" answered by the blonde
"Sheesh.. Lucy I told you not to deactivate the tracking device and the communicator bracelet that I gave you!" Erza said Making Mira, Laxus, Freed and Grey shocked by what she said.
"But~ I can't let the enemy find me so I close it for a while and after destroying the weird signal I turned it on" Lucy said.
"Wa-wait a , you never mentioned to us that you gave Lucy those" Laxus said
"Hm? You didn't know? We exchange stuffs like this since we're in kinder ne~ Lucy" Erza said as she reminisce their childhood days
"Yup~Yup" happily said by Lucy
Making Laxus and Mira sweat dropped.
"Ah..hahaha.. Kids this days really outsmarted us when we were young..right Laxus!" Freed said while laughing childishly.
"Oi! Its no laughing matter!" exclaimed by Laxus as he fall.
"You're just getting old" Gray said "Anyway, Erza can you please give me the code to the tracking device of Lucy"
"Mm.. sure" Erza said as she went near him.
"Tnx, now I can also track Lucy to where she is now" Gray said "Lucy as soon as I figure out the whole place I'll send you a map."
"Okay~ thank you Gray " the blonde said
"So Lucy where are you now?" Freed asked.
"I am currently on the elevator heading downwards...after checking up the upper floors I realize that there's a hidden underground" She said
"Tss. Oi baka is it really alright for you to communicate with us!" Laxus asked worriedly.
"Yup, don't worry I already destroy the security system at the top floor, enemies upwards are also down, No drugs are found at the upper floor so I really think a code or something is hidden towards the lower part of this run-down building." The blonde said coolly
"Lucy, how minutes have pass by since you took the elevator?" Mira asked suddenly as she pull the mike from Laxus' hand
"I guess its about 27 minutes." answered by Lucy.
"Then Lucy be careful!" exclaimed by Mira making the other looked at her confusedly
"Mira?" Lauxs said
"Isn't it weird a run-down and un-used building since 3 years ago can work a elevator and to think the place is only surrounded by trees and more trees." Mira said seriously.
"Mira-san I know, No need to worry" Lucy said
"But its a big risk-"
"A spy must be prepared to any sudden things or traps made by the enemy" The blonde haired said making everyone in the room stop on what they were doing.
"I was raised and born as a spy...so I already anticipated stuffs like this." Lucy said gently "So chill okay!?"
" I am already there. The signal at the tracker might get lower and I may not be able to contact you guys"
"What!" exclaimed by the worried Erza and Grey
"Dude and Dudettes their, just chill okay," The blonde sighed. "I'm positively sure that I can contact you again but it will take a while and Erza by the time I can contact you again I'll tell you a secret."
"Wh-why! O-oi Lucy!."
Ching..
The gang heard a loud ching, meaning the elevator finally stopped moving they can hear the sounds of the doors opening and they can feel their heart beats beating faster and faster, several seconds feels like an hour to them..
"Why—you asked?" The blonde said while smirking "Its because I'm about to get caught."
The elevator's door is fully opened a lot of armed men black suits cam while pointing their guns at the smirking blonde.
"Oi..secure this girl and bring her to the prison, put her into a different cell from the pink haired boy..." Exclaimed by the leader of the black troops. "You..raised your hands!".
The blonde did what she was told, she raised her hands still smirking, the other men in black check her body (not in perverted way!) and removed her guns and other stuffs. "Sir this girl has a communicating device on her!"
"What!" said by the "leader" "Gimme that!". After handling the said device the so called leader crash it with his hand making a weird sound on the other line.
BZZZZZZZZT...
CONNECTION LOST...
UNABLE TO CONNECT...
BZZZZZZZZT
While on the other hand Erza and the gang, can't utter a word, they were too shocked from the sudden thing that happened to the point that they even forgot to breathe just for a second.
"siiiiiiiiiiiiiighhhhhhh... that midget...doesn't she know that this is bad for my heart" Laxus said this time he collapsed in the floor, well everyone did...
"Wooooo... if this is a casino type of game, I bet Lucy will be the richest gambler ever..." Gray said emotionally tired and stress,as he feel his...no their heart is still beating faster than usual.
