Gazille sighs, sipping some crappy beer. He was in a bar with Natsu and Erza. The two others were talking about a mission they had done there, which is why the demons of the island liked them so much. Something or other pertaining to blowing up the moon. Gazille didn't pay attention to them, since they were annoying him. Vaguely he notices a light brown haired and attractive woman slam the door to the bar open. He turns his attention back to his drink, wondering if he should chase after Gin to return the necklace or just wait for her to come back. It had been a day and a half already. People were already beginning to set up the bombs in the old building and set up the festival.
"Hey, idiot!" A voice shouts near his ear. Gazille hisses in pain and covers the abused ear.
"What the hell!?" He snarls and glares at the woman that had just slammed the door open. She had chocolate brown eyes and freckles on her nose. Plus a very attractive figure.
"I'm Morgan, my sister is Gin. You're in Fairy Tail right? Good. Now, where the fuck is my sister!?" She shouts, grabbing Gazille's collar. "And you're Gazille right? You bastard, I'm going to punch your face in!"
"Whoa, whoa. Though that sounds highly entertaining, what is wrong?" Natsu asks, detangling the two growling people.
"Gin was supposed to meet me at the docks yesterday night, and she never showed. She had sent me a letter saying on how some ass-hat named Gazille was being a jerk to her. And since that is her necklace," Morgan snarls, prodding at the said necklace on Gazille's neck. It had made its way out from under his shirt. "I'm assuming you know her."
"You know what they say about assuming, it makes an ass out of u and me." Gazille snarls back.
"Stop guys, seriously. Grow up." Erza sighs a little. "Now, Morgan-chan, where is Gin?"
"I don't know, she never showed up. I was a little late so I expected her to be there, but she wasn't anywhere in sight. I looked everywhere, even the guys bathroom just in case. And Gin was always on time to everything, it's not right." Morgan covers her mouth a little, looking truly worried.
"She was gone yesterday when I went back to our room… we were sharing, don't ask, and I looked all over her with fire-butt over there. Neither of us found her, so we assumed she left the island." Gazille growls, though worry was forming in his stomach as well.
"Well you know what they say about assuming, it makes an-"
"This isn't helping." Erza cuts in, stopping Morgan from repeating Gazille's earlier words. "You two need to stop fighting. Gin could've fallen off the boat or something and-"
"She doesn't know how to swim." Morgan gasps with horror.
"Or she could have just gotten lost in the docks." Erza sooths a little, trying not to let the other girl go into a panic attack.
Discomfort settles firmly into Gazille's stomach. He gets off his bar stool. "Natsu." He looks at the other dragon slayer. Without anymore words the berry head nods and follows him out of the bar. "Come on Morgan." Gazille growls and she hurries to follow behind them.

Gazille, Natsu, and Morgan stop before a room in the hotel. As calmly as he could, Gazille knocks on Haru's door. The sound was still extremely loud. They had decided to ask the other metal mage if he had any luck in finding Gin. Gazille growls as after a minute passes and there was no reply. He knocks again. After another two or so minutes he grabs the handle and wretches the door open.
Haru was gone and so was his stuff.
"Fucking useless…." Gazille growls under his breath and turns away. "Let's go to the docks." He snarls and walks away. Natsu and Morgan follow quietly, which was a shock for the fire dragon slayer to be able to do.
The docks weren't that busy, most of the demons and people were getting ready for the festival that night. Gazille takes the necklace off gently and holds it out for Natsu. "Here, some of her smell." He grumbles, not liking the idea of sharing it with anyone.
"Why are you wearing it?" Natsu asks, wagging his eyebrows.
"Just sniff it fire-ass." He snaps. Natsu chuckles and does as told before Gazille wipes the necklace off, in case the idiot got anything on it, and gently places it back around his neck. They both start smelling around with their sensitive noses for Gin.
Gazille finds the trail first and looks at the others. "Got it, come on." He growls and follows the smell around.
"Gazille, do you smell the other scent right over this?" Natsu asks, serious for once.
"Yes." He whispers, smelling the scent that covered Gin. An uncomfortable tightness returns to his stomach. "She was being followed…. Do you know who it was? It's familiar, but…" He growls at his own inability to identify the unknown smell.
"I don't, but it is familiar." Natsu agrees.
The three continue to a boat, the loading board covered in the two smells. Gazille didn't like this, and Natsu seemed even less enthusiastic. "…Natsu, go get Erza, Lucy, Gray, and who ever else you can." Gazille orders, mind working furiously. "We'll need a big search team, ride to the mainland on the next available boat. Morgan, come with me." He steps onto the board and goes to the captain of the ship. Meanwhile the two do what the iron dragon said.
Hehe, ass-hat.
