That was Easy

~Front gate of the Mansion~

Lucy shivered under the duke's perverted gaze, her fingers pulling at her skirt as she tried and failed to cover skin.

'Oh you're gonna get it at the end of this you disgusting creep... I'll make sure that you won't ever want to go out in public again...'

"So I'm hired?" She spoke overly sweet, a naive smile pulling at her lips as she bent in a 45 degree bow, the old bastard sneaking a glance down her cleavage before he smiled back lustfully.

"Yes yes, Virgo, take her to the room." He ordered. A large hand grabbed her around the waist and carried her into the building, and not being gentle about it.

~Natsu~

To say he was worried was the understatement of the century. The fire dragon slayer snarled ferally as his partner was roughly carried into the mansion. Natsu could smell the disgusting arousal of the Duke that rose as he gawked the at Lucy's ass, which was out in plain view due to the way she was 'carried' away.

"I'm gonna tear that Prick's dick off and shove it down his throat for looking at her like that..." The male hissed, fully ready to jump the peewee and commit to his threat. Just as he shifted to a pouncing position, a dangerously calm whisper of dragon tongue reached him.

"You do anything that jeprodizes this mission, then I'll make sure that you'll never get another carat of gold, I can already smell our choices inside, I just have to find the right room."

It stated, a shiver of fear shaking him to the bone and stopping his movements. A chuckle reached his ears as he saw Everlue walk into his home, a cocky smirk playing at his potato face. After a minute of making sure the coast was clear, Natsu sprung up and sped to the building's walls, easily climbing up with his 'ninja' skills. Settling infront of a window pane, he quickly melted the fragile glass into a molten heap, then slunk into the room, noticing a creepy collection of items, as well as a marble statue of a naked lady.

'Creep...'

Dragneel soon reached a door, creaking it open, only to be hit by the scent of more gold, jewels and metal, as well as rotten potatoes and a mix of roses and stardust. The fact that the two scents mingled slightly made him sick to the stomach, so he did the only thing he could to ward them off, stick his nose in his scarf and let the smell of his missing father engulf his scent glands." That's better..." He grumbled, scampering towards a dusty looking door in hopes of finding his target. Natsu grinned widely as the door swung open to reveal a library choked full of books." I feel like he wouldn't mind if I took a book off his hands..."

~Lucy~

A smirk took over her face as she heard her partner grumbling something far away from her. The smirk quickly died though as the Duke strode in, eyeing her body as he strut in circles around her. She noticed he didn't even reach her hip. The old fart stuck out a hand to touch her thigh, so she instantly jumped away, a glare set on her face as the man turned red.

"How dare you jump away from your master?! You are my slave, so you will behave as a slave!" He roared, waddling forward to hit her, only to have his hand fly through solid air since Lucy leant back, smiling.

"Oh but master, it is unright to cause bodily harm to someone whom works under you." She purred, taking a predatory step forwards, scaring the midget back. The blonde then stood tall and patted her key pouch." I'll always be here to ensure that that's upheld." Sputtering in surprise, Everlue pointed a chubby finger at her.

"You're a Mage you witch! you must want my fortune, I won't let you have it!" He screeched, diving into the ground. Lucy chuckled at his reaction then gripped a white key from her key ring.

"Open, Gate of the Chained Lady, Andromeda." At her command, the sound of clinking chains echoed through the room as a goregeous woman with ebony black hair, bewitching green eyes, and full lips painted steel gray, stepped from her gate, iron chain-mail acting as a sleeveless dress that reached to just above her knees. The spirit smiled coldly, then muttered.

"Chains of the Earth." Instantly, two huge rock chains jumped from the woman's palms, racing down the tunnel the Duke had drilled, quickly latching onto the chubby man and pulling him up from underground." I have captured the target m'lady, shall I turn him to dust?" Everlue began to bawl for forgiveness at the spirit's words, pleading for his measly life. Lucy sighed then plucked him from the chained lady's grasp, sending the woman back with a telepathic thank you.

"I'll spare others the hassle of cleaning up the mess that would be your corpse." She snarled, chucking the midget into the wall and leaving a huge dent. The Duke sucked in air before coughing out.

"Oh how I *cough* love those keys of yours, be assured, I will *cough* take them, and kill you in the process..." Lucy chuckled at his attempted threat, then strode out of the room, deeming any jewelry she passed worthless and fake. A explosion suddenly shook the building and smoke poured over her from the main foyer. Smiling, she watched as her teammate emerged from the smoke, two odd looking men lying in heaps behind him.

"Please tell me you didn't kill them..." She hissed, then noticing the lack of a book." Did you find the book?"

"No, these wimps interrupted me, gonna go back and check now. Where's the Potato?" Natsu kicked the fallen mages from his path as he headed back to the library, Lucy following close behind.

"Out like a perverted light..." She mumbled, jumping up to the higher level, her eyes locking on a leather bound book. Her hand reached out subconsciously to it, and she read the cover.

'Dragons and Dragon slayers: Dragon 101 for dummies'

'by Tsuna Cyclo the Water Dragon Slayer'

"Huh... Interesting. Yo Natsu, you down if I snag an extra book?" She called out below, noticing her friend with his nose in a gold and glittery book.

"Oh... Sure Luce, I think I found Daybreak by the way." He responded, showing her the cover. The female slayer hopped down and examined the book, noticing a rearrangement spell almost immediately.

"This is something we can't read dumb you, remember, Kaby had requested be brought to him for some odd reason..." The blonde sniffed the book and smiled, recognizing a scent similar to their clients clinging to the parchment pages." And I think I know why, Kemu Zaelon was truly amazing at keeping secrets..." Natsu smiled lightly at her words, his chin brushing her cheek in acknowledgement. Tucking the books under her arm, Lucy spun to the door, about to leave when 5 maids burst from the ground, all having alluring, buxom bodies but hideous faces that even a mother wouldn't love. Following them, the pink haired gorilla appeared and charged the duo.

"Looks like we got some end of day clean up, don't we girls?" The gorilla sneered, throwing a punch at Natsu, who rolled out of the way of the meaty fist. Letting out a roar, he jumped on the gorilla's back and brought down a hand in a Fire Dragon's Crushing Fang attack, intantly t.k.o-ing the beast, and lighting everything within 10 metres on fire. Lucy kicked the maids into the wall, knocking them all out in seconds. The victors laughed at the easy win, then dashed out of the building, watching with wide eyes as it crumbled and burned. Turning to eachother, they grinned menacingly and high fives with their hands covered in their respective magics.

"That was easy!"

(A/N: and scene. Everlue was a old pervert, and I'm honestly glad to have gotten him out of the way. Finally get to put in the Dragon book, I've been wanting to start having Lucy and/or Natsu read it. So, the white keys are making an appearance now, we have met the Chained Lady. Who should pop by next, the peacock, the wolf, or the fox? Hope you guys enjoyed reading and I hope that you check out, or have checked out my other story, Stella Crash and Salamander. Okay? Okay.

Bye)
