Fairy Tail:

"Hey, we're back!" All of the Fairies greet them before going back to their daily business. "Hey you, you lie to me!" Natsu beat some guy up before joining the bawl. "Hey Naruto, you going on another job." Happy was eating a fish while Lucy at her brother figure. "Don't you want to fix things Hinata?" "I ain't prepare yet, plus she coming to soon but we'll get back together later, I promise." "Hey, may I have your underwear?" Lucy turns to see a nude Gray. "Prevert!" Lucy punch him and Natsu throw him across the room. "Stay away from my Luce you ice prick!" "Your Luce?" Lisanna walk in with a tray in her hands (she and Mira work at the bar when not on a job). "I…. have to beat Gray for twisting my words!" Natsu rejoin the brawl. "So you're the girl that Natsu talk about." "It just he really likes me… as a friend!" "Don't worries, the two of you will make a great couple." Liz was hit by a bottle and hit the ground bleeding; she then got up and starts attacking. "Natsu is right; fighting is part of this guild." "If you want to join, then you need to ask the master." Lucy turns around and saw Levy reading a book and both greet each other.

"Look Natsu." "Nice, but why pink?" "Because it my favorite color." "Hey, it the same pink on Natsu." Both turn to see Hinata eating cinnamon ramen in her cat form. "Hi, Hinata." "If you're looking for him, he left but wants to talk to you later." Hinata blushed. 'It not like he want divorce, but I feel that I need to make up to him.' "Hey, I got a job that….." "What do you mean you won't send someone after him?" Romeo was yelling at Makorov "I sorry but your father is strong so there no worries." "But he was gone for a week!" *bam* Natsu slam the poster back. "Gramp, I go check on Macao on what he taking too long." "Go suit yourself, it your chose anyway." "Lucy, Happy, let's follow him." "Aye." As the four head out, Romeo runs to them. "Will you bring him back Natsu-nii?" "You bet ya."

"Whoa it is freezing! Natsu, give me your blanket!" She took it and summon Horologium enter inside him with Happy. "Naruto said you must be ready for anything." Hinata was disappointed while Natsu sniff the snow. "I can't find his scent, something is wrong." "Like that snow ape grabbing you buddy and mate." "'Help us!' they said." the ape took them away. "So, why did you come?" "I hear that there an ice that heal, and if Naruto eat it, he can produce it when needed." "So I on my own? * Nod * LUCY! HAPPY!"

"… and that how Lucy beat up that gorilla." "Well it was Taurus that fights it until Natsu knock him out and we save Marco from the take-over." They were at the entries when they saw Naruto and Romeo sparing with wooden swords. Romeo was striking fast and hard but Naruto block or dodge each time. "Come on! You need to do something that I won't expect!" Romeo grabs a wooded kunai and charge through, using the smaller blade to block Naruto's; he was able to get closer to swing the other blade. Naruto know what happen and grab the sword's blunt side. "So close, but yet so far." 'He got me, the only way out is to kick him hard. Even if it not enough to knock him unbalance, the force will cover some distance.' Just Romeo's foot hit Naruto's side, purple flame were made that Naruto was force to skid back. "What was that?!" Marco ran (as best with his wounds) to his son who was shock. "Dad?" both hugs it out as the rest watch the moment. "Marco, sorry about training your son in your absents but I was trying to cheer him up a bit, thought I wasn't planning on teaching him magic this soon." "Don't worries, just thank you for watching him." "Thank you Natsu-nii for saving my dad." "Don't sweat it." "Romeo, the next time your friends brag about their dads, says that I take out 19 beasts." "And if that won't shut them, then show them your magic." The group laughs at this. "Naru-kun… I'm sorry." Hinata Hugs Naruto who hugs back. "Me too Hina-chan, me too."
