I LIED I AM SO SORRY! I said I had regained my motivation but I really haven't. High school's such a bother. So many assignments . ANYWAY! It took us a while but here we are, chapter 7!
(Ps. Love you guys for putting up with my shenanigans)

Dante watched the wizards interact with each other in confusion. The bluenette was being scolded by a cat. The black-haired guy was running around the carriage, shouting about where his clothes had gone. The fiery-haired woman and the blue cat were talking about the best way to help the pink haired guy not get sick. The woman was suggesting just punching him hard enough so that he passes out, however the cat said it was a dumb idea and they should just shove in in one of the suitcases. Dante was dumbstruck. Were they really considering the well-being of their friend or were they just joking?! And the Blondie? Lucy?
She was gently patting the pink-haired bastard's head, like he was a dog or something! Dante wondered what it felt like, to have his hair stroked by the beauty. Dante shook himself out of the pleasant day dream, cursing himself for having such thoughts while she was no less than two steps away.
"Mr Dante?" The little girl tried again, shaking under the cats glare as she once again tried to talk to him.
"Hm?"
"I was….I just…." The started, fidgeting as the cat prepared to launch into another verbal attack.
"You just what?" He asked, doing his best not to yell at a child.
"I was just wondering how you knew I know healing magic" she gushed, face turning a bit pink.
"Eh? Oh. I read a magazine about your guild a while back and I recognised your face. Why?" he said in a laid-back manner, leaning back against the chair.
"I thought if you already knew who I was you'd know everyone else too" She fidgeting a little.
"Nope."
"I suppose we should introduce ourselves then, huh?" The girl looked to her cat, who just nodded in response, paws crossed.
"Well, My name is Wendy Marvel, and I'm a sky dragon slayer, and this is Charle, She's an exceed. She uses Aria magic. Nice to meet you" Wendy did a little bow in her seat, while Dante only nodded.
"My name is Erza Scarlet, and I use re-quip magic. Nice to meet you" The fiery haired woman beside him jumped in, smiling at him.
"AYE! And I'm Happy, an exceed like Charle" The blue cat cheered from Ezra's lap.
"He's Natsu Dragoneel, and he's the fire dragon slayer." Lucy said, introducing the sick pink haired guy in her lap.
"Gray Fullbuster, Ice make wizard" The black-haired guy popped up from nowhere, having found his clothes.
"And you already know who I am but I'll say it anyway. My name is Lucy Heartfillia and I am a celestial spirit mage." She smiled and lit up the room as she always did, and Dante roared mental at his heart to stop whatever it was doing when she did that.
"Dante. Just Dante. Demon hunter" She said, arms crossed over his chest.
"Well, it's good we've now all been introduced, huh?" Gray said to Erza, who nodded in reply. The odd group sat in silence for a few moments longer before Charle piped up, taking on her usual high-and-mighty tone.
"So, Dante, out with it. What's your side of the story? How'd you find our Lucy?" She demanded. Dante thought she was very arrogant for a puny cat.
"Depends. What did she tell you I did?" he lent forward on the chair to match the cats gaze.
"She is right here you know" Lucy sassed from her seat.
"What did you tell them then?" he turned his face from the cat to the girl he rescued.
"Only that I got my ass handed to me, passed out and that I guess you showed up after that. Then I woke up on your couch a few days later" she leaned forward towards his face, but he moved back to the glaring match with the cat.
"I took a job. Kill a demon and its minions. You were already there. I got there just in time to see your little air trick. I then proceeded to check if you were alive then do my job. I don't blame you for getting beaten like that. It was a pretty high-level demon you tried to take on." Dante addressed Lucy without breaking eye-contact with the Charle.
"Thanks for the help, then" Lucy smiled, and looked out the window, her smile becoming even more brilliant, if that were possible.
"Hey, we're here!" She cheered.
