Chapter 8:
No one's POV
After that incident with Zeru, Ian and Kuri the guild became normal again. Meredy played and caught up with Juvia, Ultear was having an awkward moment with Gray, and Kuri joined Elfman, Natsu and Gajeel in their 'man talk'.
"See I told you! If we would've looked for him just now, we would never guess he would look like that!" Ian said as he pointed to his brother.
"Okay…" Shari backed off. "Sorry for being so concerned for your brother,"
"Well I don't need you to be concerned he's like 19 years old, he can take care of himself," Ian alleged. Shari muttered a "Fine…" and turned the other way.
"Anyways to get rid of the awkwardness… How did you guys activate your magic?" Maira asked
"I have no idea," Zeru answered, "It was almost like someone was speaking in my ear what to do," Ian continued.
"Exactly," Zeru agreed. "I wish I could activate my power, I want to know what magic I have!" Shari said excitedly.
"Actually why don't you do that?" Zeru asked. "Seriously? But how though?" Shari asked. "Trust us, you will know, it will just come to you naturally," Ian said to Maira and Shari. Both of them nodded and followed Zeru and Ian out side the guild. They don't want to do it inside the building because they poor Ultear because she was the one who restored the guild after the fight.
Once they were outside Zeru and Ian started to take over and teach them,
"So first you concentrate then build up your power," Ian said, "Like this," Zeru showed them her dark magic surrounding her.
"Sugoi~" Maira was amazed, and then she closed her eyes and concentrated. She took a deep breath and swirls of water surrounded her, Shari did the same thing but she now was surrounded by bursts of light.
"This is so cool!" Shari exclaimed excitedly. "Ditto," Maira agreed.
"So you got that part down let's try doing attacks," Ian ordered. Maira and Shari listened as Zeru and Ian performed some attacks.
"Dark/Fire Phoenix Shriek!" They aimed at a tree and,
BOOM!
The tree first burst on fire then disappeared leaving little black and purple spots behind. "See, now you guys try!" Zeru encouraged.
Mai and Shari took deep breaths and did their attacks well. They also aimed at the tree next to the tree that was hit just now.
"Light/Water Phoenix Shriek!"
BOOM!
The tree first got hit by water and got drenched and light dried it while hit the tree. So basically the tree instead of destroying it, it grew bigger in size. Maira and Shari sighed because they just made it better. Then Ian and Zeru laughed,
"That's so funny!" Ian said while laughing,
"Why is it funny?" Mai asked him.
"Ian and I destroy stuff while you guys make it better. You guys are total opposites of us. I'm dark and Shari's light, while Ian's fire and Maira's water!" Zeru stated
"Oh yeah! Maybe we instead of attacks are good in healing?" Shari asked. "Let's try to heal Mai!"
"Okay…" Mai agreed, they concentrated and proceeded. They healed Ian and Zeru's bruises from the fight.
"See! Total opposites!" Ian said
"Is that a good thing though?" Mai asked and they all shrugged. It was now getting dark so they went back into the guild.
"Lushee! ~" They shouted in the guild. "Can we go now?" Mai asked her. Lucy smiled and got up from her table,
"Bye Natsu, Gray, Erza, Levy, Wendy, Happy and Charles, See you tomorrow!" She wished everyone good-bye.
"Sayonara Minna!" The kids said farewell. "Wait Kuri! Where are you going to stay?"
He shrugged and looked over to Meredy who was sitting next to him. He did a 'can-I-stay-with-you-guys' look. Meredy rolled her eyes and huffed a "Fine," "Good,"
"Go! I got a place!" He exclaimed to Ian, "Don't cause trouble for them! They got enough on their hands already, they don't need you to cause more!" Ian said back. "Yeah ok, go!" Kuri answered back. Ian rolled his eyes and went to join Lucy and his friends to Lucy's house.
-Line-
At Lucy's house:
"Shari can I have the couch tonight?" Zeru asked
"Aw but I love Lucy's couch!" Shari did a sad face, Zeru huffed and said "Fine, but if my back hurts it's your fault!"
"Don't worry I'll heal it!" Shari winked. Then Zeru said to Lucy, "Lucy do you have more pillows?"
"No sorry, you can sleep on my bed if you like," She said. Zeru questioned her,
"But I thought you don't like people to sleep on your bed?" I asked,
"I just don't like it when they sleep without my permission, like a certain flame head baka," Lucy answered. "Oh," Zeru giggled
Then Ian came out of the bathroom wearing his PJ's that he bought recently. The girls were already in their pajamas. Zeru simply bought a dark purple T-shirt with a music note on it with the matching short pants, Shari bought a yellow T-shirt with food on it with matching short pants, Maira bought a light blue T-shirt with books on it with the long pants and Ian bought a red shirt with art utensils on it with short pants. Lucy was wearing her pink top and blue pants.
"Ah nothing beats a good shower," Ian said. Then he jumped on the floor to a couple of pillows and a blanket and made himself cozy.
"Zeru, you're not going to sleep on the floor?" Ian asked,
"Nope I'm sleeping in Lucy's bed, she allowed me," Zeru answered
"Ah okay,"
"Where's Mai?" Ian asked
"She's in the kitchen," Zeru answered Ian.
"Oh I see… Wait what's she doing there?" Ian asked Zeru.
"I'm making burgers and fries," Mai shouted from Lucy's kitchen. "Ooh yum!" Ian could feel Mai's cooking in his tummy already.
"Thanks Mai!" Zeru shouted. "No problem! I know you guys are hungry!" Mai shouted.
Soon enough Mai came up with 5 burgers and fries they devoured it in 5 minutes. They thanked Maira,
"Arigato Mai! ~" Shari thanked, Ian nodded with his mouth full. Zeru did a thumbs up with her mouth full too. Lucy thanked her too and then helped her with the dishes. When they returned they already found Ian on the floor snoring, Zeru was facing the window on Lucy's bed asleep and Shari was on the desk she was reading a book but soon fell asleep on it. Lucy smiled and asked Maira,
"Is this how your friends usually are?" Maira smiled and answered,
"Yeah, but I wouldn't trade them for the world," Lucy smiled and walked over to Shari, picked her up and tucked her into the couch. Maira walked over to the chairs, straightened them, put blankets over them, grabbed a pillow and slept on it. After that Lucy went beside Zeru and slept too.
Natsu and Happy banged on the door and woke them up,
BAM!
They jolted up and Zeru and Ian were pissed. They did a really creepy voice,
"NaTsU DrAgNeEL! HaPpY! YoU gUyS aRe So DeAd!" Natsu and Happy became scared, and yelped, "Eeep!"
