Levy woke up first in a dizzy haze. She rubbed her eyes, trying to rub the sleepiness away. She remembered vaguely that someone, Mirajane, spiked the drinks Lucy had ordered. She sighed as she remembered how drunken Ezra came, she was one of those angry drunks and she really, REALLY got unto Levy about Gajeel and walking out of the castle with four men she didn't even knew.

Levy was a happy drunk and just laughed it off. Lucy was a weird drunk and kept asking someone to pet her, and Juvia cried on how Levy gets to spend time with 'her' Gray…and Mirajane? She left for a while, so no one still doesn't know what type of drunk she was.

She went around the room, looking for some pen and paper. Finally finding some, she wrote a little note saying she was off and that she'll see them at Fairy Tail. Smiling as she finished the note, placing it where she hoped they would find it and not go on another crusade to come find her. She left afterwards, walking in the morning light towards the hotel where her new comrade laid sleeping.

Humming to herself, levy walked the cobbled streets, passing vendors getting ready for the morning shoppers. She had just passed a fruit stand where an odd feeling came over her. She felt like someone was watching her. Glancing over her shoulder, she only saw a few people behind her. Levy continued walking past an alley, where after she passed it, she stopped and took a few steps back.

She glanced in the ally way, for a moment, she thought she saw a tall man standing there, if there ever was, he was gone now. She shrugged it off and hurried her way back to the hotel.

Entering the hotel lobby, she took a seat of the many couches that littered the room. Breakfast was being served and some the people staying there were already down. Levy ignored them and went off into her own little world.


Mirajane returned to the room to find everyone past out and Levy gone. She huffed for a moment before seeing the letter. Reading it, a smile grew on her lips, "that girl is going on the adventure of her life…but," Mirajane glance up and stared out the window, "I hope no harm comes to her…"

Juvia mumbled in her sleep, causing Mirajane to shake her head and put the letter down, "I'm sure she is in good hands,"

Gajeel was the first to awake in his room, Natsu was snoring loudly during the night that it kept him up for some time. Pantherl


ily snuggled into his blanket and stirred lightly. Getting out of bed, Gajeel changed into his regular clothes and headed downstairs where the hotel workers had made breakfast.

He knew she was there before he rounded the corner. With his heightened sense of smell, he could she was there and that breakfast was eggs and bacon. He saw her sitting across the room, watching as people talked amongst themselves and eating. He snuck up behind her and sat beside her.

"Yo,"

She jumped a little, surprised at his presence, but she calmed a bit, "Good morning,"

"Wasn't that a surprise yesterday," he hummed, eyeing the plates of food the other people had.

"Have you eaten yet?" she asked him.

"Not really,"

She nudged him, "Go ahead, it comes with your room. I'll be right here,"

He nodded, getting up. He grabbed a plate as he walked past, loading it with almost everything they had. Levy went wide eyed as she noticed how much food he had. He chuckled as he sat back down beside her.

"I get really hungry in the mornings," Gajeel grumbled as he bit into a slice of toast with an egg on top. Levy grinned.

"Do you want anything?" he asked.

"No, I ate before I came here," she replied, propping her hand up and leaning into it. Gajeel nodded and continued to eat. Levy noticed he would take bites out of the metal utensils. Soon the other three had come down for breakfast and started to talk about how they would get o Fairy Tail.

Natsu nudged Levy and had asked her more about her friends. She told him what she knew and what they did last night. Natsu started to tease Gray about his new 'love'. Gray was about to yell back when there was a shout of pain.

"OW!"

All heads swiveled to see an older man get out of seat quickly, pulling something off his hand, "WHO'S PET IS THIS?!" he held up a small black creature with what looked like a small brown crown on its head and beady yellow eyes. People around him murmured that they never seen a thing like that before. The creature started to chuckled darkly, causing the man to suddenly drop it in fear.

The thing landed on the table and jumped on people's heads, heading for the door. People screamed as it went by them. It landed on Levy's head and she tried to sway it away before jumping away. She thought she felt a small prick on her hand as if the creature had pulled a strand of her.

Soon half the room was cleared; some went back to their rooms, while some went to complain to the manager. Levy stayed in her seat, patting her hair back into place. Natsu, Gray, and Gajeel talked about what the thing was while Laxus stayed quiet.

Soon, the guys went back up to their rooms and collected their things. Levy waited for them outside the hotel, watching as people went by.

A tall man stood amongst the crowd, a large nose and a large top hat. The creature from this morning was on his shoulder. Levy blinked and rubbed her eyes, the man was gone.

"The drinks must still be getting to me," she grumbled.

"Whats getting to you?" Gajeel had just came out of the door, slightly startling Levy once again.

"Nothing really," she didn't want to tell anyone that a certain someone spiked her drinks last night, causing her to be drunk and that she might still be a bit hangover. Gajeel pushed her out of the way, letting there be room for the others to walk through.

The group was now headed to Sycca.
