I just stared at Natsu, he'd changed over the years. His hair was longer, yet still spiked up. His eyes were the same, yet, they lacked a little… fire. He was quieter, and it wasn't just his motion sickness. He felt very, dead almost. Lisanna also wasn't the girl I remembered, she seemed more, resentful. Hateful, then the sweet girl that I remember her being. The only thing that hadn't changed about Lisanna is that wrong feeling. As if something were off about her.

Then again, there might be something strange about me, I alright know that I'm off. You can only go through so much before something breaks down in your common sense and mind. I looked around. Gray was looking better now that they had spoken. Now smiling a little when Lucy offered him one. Erza however was still distant. Like there was something wearing at her as well. She still was focused on the mission. Her eyes wondering the mission sheet as if it were her lifeline. I gave a short laugh.

"Yeah, Mason has some strange telekinesis magic." A flick to my head. "Everyone else has more physical magic, so we just love to give him shit for it." Mason chuckled at that.

"That and Mad's obsession for toilet humor that seems to be rubbing off on everyone." I chuckled and cuddled closer to Mallie, her warm arms around my waist and her head was in the junction of my neck. Bright red hair tickling my chin, the smell of charcoal, cherries, and lime exuded from her. It was tangy and addictive. Unique to only her. I pulled the blanket more firmly over her.

"What magic do the rest of you have? So, we can build a strategy and plan for the mission." Erza spoke, but the words were clipped and tense. Just like her, but the air around her, reminded me of a rubber band close to snapping.

"Well, Mads plays with fire. Probably more than what's healthy for her… Fareign, what does he do again?"

"He's fucking useless."

"It was something with nature I remember that. I'll ask him when we got everyone else done."

"Nah, you talk to him, I'll continue on."

"March on." With that his eyes went strangely blank and I knew he was gathering his magic up. I couldn't hear what was being said, it wasn't the group connection, so I had no clue what the conversation was. If it was anything important or amusing though I trusted Mason to tell me.

"Well, Fallon is an exceed, I don't believe she has magic however. Silverynn, he has ice magic, similar to Grey I guess. Um, let's see. Mallie, Fareign, Mason, Silvery, Fallon, Happy, I hope to god you remember him or I'll slaughter you and string my fiddle with your intestines." I paused for a wicked grin.

"I think that's it really."

"What about you?" I gave a nervous smile.

"What about me?"

"He said you had magic, but we have your keys." That was a sobering reminder, god, how long has it been? I missed them so much, but, I couldn't see them again. I couldn't. I wasn't worthy of them anymore.

"Ah, yeah that's right. Well, I've been dabbling with some illusion magic. That's about it however." I was going to say something a little bit more, but I was interrupted by Mason almost shouting like a idiot. No expression, just yelling as if it were normal.

"I was right dammit! Tree hugging bastard!" I fell for it, sitting up straight with him.

"Hippie bastard!"

"Aye!" I almost forgot Happy was on my head, he'd been so quiet lately. I had no clue why, I could only hope he was okay. Talking about it in front of the others right now was out of question. I'd have to ask him when we got back to the hotel. Yeah, that was a good plan.

The train jolted and I grabbed onto Mallie tighter as the whistle blew.

"We are arriving at Hargeon Station for those of you who…" I tuned out the intercom as they began to ramble about the tourists attractions, such and such, so and so. I heard Fareign cheering in the background obnoxiously with Silverynn. I sighed, but a smile still tugged at my lips.

Our Idiots indeed.
