-Juvia's POV-
As we chatted with each other, I pointed out that we'd needed to get out of the dungeon and Flare nodded in agreement. Flare told us, "Stand back guys. You'll know why."
We did as she said and her body ignited into flames as she kept on walking and beckoning us to follow her through the cool place, thanks to me casting a water sphere on the outside so we won't be all sweaty inside this small dungeon.
40 minutes later, we found the light of day. All of us were covered in soot and still could smell that rustic system of pipes.
Wendy sighed in relief when there was conviniently a lady in the woods near us since Flare forgot about the directions.
She was really pretty with a lab coat. Her eyes were shiny purple eyes and sandy hair with a smile covering her face. She introduced herself as Kara Cheney and we did the same.
We chatted with her and found out that, Rogue Cheney was her son. Weird that a human and an actual dragon could mate, but then again we have magic so the impossible can happen in Earthland.
Surprised, Erza fell into a pit trap set by villagers in Kamido Village and squealed.
Kara apologized for their traps and helped Erza up. She led us to a beautiful greenhouse which immediately reminded me of the ocean. The light of the sun shoned brightly on the glassy surface, showing the colors of nature.
I for one, had hugged her for randomness then this private hug turned into probably the biggest group hug she ever had. After that moment, she had prepared some towels because everyone crinkled their nose in disatisfation as they looked at themselves in the mirror.
Everyone rushed to the fresh hot springs and took their clothes, & undergarments.
-Normal POV-
"Ahh... so relaxing~!" Charla and Wendy snuggled in the water, which calmed the aching muscles
Flare jumped into the hot springs after Charla and Wendy had rested their heads on the rock. Erza tested the waters with her toe and then took off her towel before sitting down in the hot waters. Juvia just splashed the water towards everyone when she made a giant cannonball. Lisanna just walked into the hots springs, sitting next to Wendy and Charla. Minerva transported next to Juvia with her towel on her body and having another towel for her neck.
A few minutes later Kara had appeared out of nowhere in the center, smiling like Mira's.
"Ahhh! How long have you been there?" Everyone jumped at least 5 feet in the air due to the shock still processing in their minds.
"Well... it was a shortcut when I really want to take a bath." Kara smiled and wrapped her short towel around her hair, leaving some strands out since her hair was thick and soft like cotton. Her body was the normal bust, and she looked like in the early thirties with very faint lines of wrinkles on her neck and arms.
Kara started the chat. "Well care to explain why you guys were all dirty and smelled like disgusting metal?" She ended that question with a twitch at mentioning the digusting stench.
"Hai Kara-san. Well Flare is the one who was trapping Minerva so Lucy-san had messaged Rogue. Wait a minute... where's Rogue?" Wendy tilted her head in confusion.
The relaxed girls had stood up, most holding up their short towels around their bodies looking for Rogue. Erza stepped out of the hot springs and looked in the rocks. Not surprising. She didn't find a squashed Rogue hiding under a piece of earth. The others followed Erza looking inside the house and near the bushes in the front.
"AHHHHHH! You bastard, what are you doing to that tree?!"
A horrified and pale Lisanna came out of the gardens, twitching then eventually fainting on Wendy. Who worried about what just happened to Lisanna and used Troia on her.
Charla sweatdropped at Wendy trying to use her magic on the fainted girl. And so she patted her paw onto Wendy's hand and told her. "Don't you see that Lisanna is unconscious? Remember to only push yourself when it is needed."
Wendy smiled and apologized to Charla, stopping her magic from draining for waste. "I'm sorry Charla, see? Now I stopped magic so lets go see why Lisanna-san fainted." Wendy stood up and offered Charla her hand.
Charla smiled and reached for Wendy's hand, getting pulled into Wendy's firm grip so she didn't have to use her wings.
A clattering sound bounced against the metal gate surrounding the garden.
- Wendy's POV-
My eyes widened at this sight. In the gardens was Rogue using the trees as a bathroom. That must be why Lisanna fainted. And Charla twitched at this.
Suddenly a blindfold covered my eyes.
"Charla! Can you help me? I can't see anything." I reached for something to grip onto. I ended up sitting on the grass not near the gates otherwise I would've gotten my face hurt by the metal.
"No Wendy, just stay there. Sometimes it's best not to see something okay?" I just reluctantly replied. "Okay Charla. I will do as you say."
So I just sat there, criss cross apple sauce. Finally what seemed like forever with the yells and clutter, tiny paws walked towards me and reached for my arm and took off the blindfold!
Ahh, so much better. Now I just saw Rogue's swollen head on the ground as he got hit with a ton of bricks from Flare, Minerva and Kara with satanic eyes.
I poked Rogue after they were done beating him up, he looked like he's been ripped apart in a tornado. "Uhhh..." A zombie Rogue with bags in his eyes looked at me with a creepy stare. I trembled with tears.
"Wahhhh... somebody help me, Rogue is so scary. Just like sour candy!" I hugged Kara for some comfort from that scarring experience. I turned back to Rogue, seeing him half dead and I felt guilty.
"Sorry Rogue! It's my fault! Mou, I'm so sorry.."
I cried crocodile tears and tried to heal him but ended up splashing him with my tears on his face. Then, his arms embraced me like a big brother would. I looked at him, surprised. He had the emo face on but still a big bro presence was there.
"Thanks Rogue." I smiled happily and hugged back in response.
"AWWW!" The girls cheered in unison and fangirled the loudest especially his mom, Kara.
I blushed and ended the sweet sibling hug. "Ahem~!" I cleared my throat. Now all their attention was to me. "Perfect. Now, let's tell Kara how we all ended up here." Flare smiled.
"Yes I'll explain it. My family was possessed by the bad demons which made them mean. I had a crush on Rogue but I erased mainly Rogue, Lucy and Cosmos's memories of me. Kristina only knows that I was her 'only' friend in her childhood. So a demon offered me pills to take away the heartbreak and I became insane. The demon who controlled me came out and Juva & I defeated her with a unison raid. Right now I'm me so I'm hoping Lucy will purify me with her magic signature. I'll explain to you guys later."
Kara smiled at the explanation while bandaging Rogue's head.
"Now lets just go to Lucy and explain everything. I'm sure she'll forgive you." Kara patted Flare's head and continued to put the whole set of gauze onto her son's head. Ahh! A mummy turned Rogue into a mummy... only his head though.
Ugh, my tummy's really hungry and with my excellent hearing I could tell the girls and Rogue were embarrassed at their stomachs sounding like a really big whale. But mine was cute, it sounded like a tiny puppy whining.
"Oh my!" Kara ruffled all of our heads at a time. "Looks like you guys are hungry so I'll prepare some food, Wendy-chan would you help me." Nodding up and down, I saluted to her and walked with her while Charla didn't follow me for once.
We went to the kitchen which was beautiful with marble tiles, and all sorts of kitchen thingys in rainbow and I washed my hands as Kara said to, otherwise you would get germs in your food. A pair of arms I recognized as Kara, tied a small apron around my stomach and waist.
I finished cleaning my hands, and looked at Kara. She was so pretty! I wonder what she looked like when she met Rogue's dad. But now, focusing on the food, she said that we were making fried chicken with some rum and raisin ice cream as dessert!
That sounded so delicious and it was easy like pie! We just had to make the frying batter for chicken, get some rum and ice cream then just mix it up in the metal ice cream mixing bowl. Kara just handled setting up the table for the others in the greenhouse and making rum and raisin ice cream. I was cooking with Kara's instructions.
I dipped my tiny spoon and tasted the wonderful curry, and salt-&-pepper batter. Mmhm! The others will enjoy it.
I cleaned the chicken with some lemongrass, Kara said that it makes chicken more good for curry. I grabbed a large plastic bowl and put in the frying batter so I don't make a mess. I added in some water just in case it's superhot for the others plus Kara doesn't like extremely hot food. I put the bowl near the fryer along with the chicken and just fried the chicken.
5 minutes later, much of the chicken dipped in batter looked nice and crispy instead of soggy like Natsu makes it, ugh. "Kara! The chicken is ready you want me to put it on the table." Her head poked out of the dining room which this greenhouse held. "Hai Wendy-chan! Put them on the table, I think Rogue's really hungry." I put a thumbs up and took out all of the chicken wings onto a giant pretty plate with towels covering the surface because wings can be really oily.
I carried the plate over 10 pounds with the giant pieces of chicken and set it down just in time for Kara to start making the rum raisin ice cream. I stared at her making the ice cream with hungry eyes. She mixed in french vanilla ice cream, rum, raisin, and some cinnamon. It keeps the ice cream more homey. She poured in all of it inside the ice cream bowl mixer.
And 12-15 minutes later, the ice cream was finished and put into a tub in the freezer. Kara winked at me and shushed me about the ice cream. I smiled and nodded at her.
"Dinner's ready!"
I stepped out of the way from the ravenous people stampeding towards the food on the table, whom I respected like they were upperclassmen.
"Thanks for the meal!" We all clapped our hands together, praying to the Gods about the delicious food about to be devoured. Everyone of us grabbed a big chicken wing onto our plates and some ate like regular people like me. Rogue was the only one eating like a beast kinda like Natsu only he didn't make a mess with bones.
We all waited for Rogue to finish his tenth chicken wing... us girls only finished 5 chicken wings. Meanwhile they were waiting, I walked out of the dining area and looked at the beautiful view of the sunset. It's so fun here, I love summertime.
I stretched for a bit and Charla was helping me with my posture.
"Make sure you have your hands and arms directly straight Wendy! It helps you with table manners unlike Rogue who eats worse than a regular person." Charla nodded at herself in that opinion, closing her eyes.
I giggled and dragged Charla back to the dining room or area where everything was clean and they were just eating the ice cream Kara made. Charla quickly let go of my grip and gotten some ice cream in a cute bowl with a spoon.
I did the same as well, and this homemade ice cream tasted more better since my favorite flavor is cinnamon.
Rogue enjoyed it very much, Charla still licked it looking disinterested but I knew she enjoyed it, Minerva smirked in satisfation as she ate the ice cream, Yukino licked it and sadly hers melted, Flare was having a hard time trying to keep it cool, where Juvia cooled her melted ice cream so she still had time... she's lucky.
I finished mines quickly as well as Kara, she told me that her favorite type of flavor is cinnamon! Lucy and Kara will get along well because I consider them my role models. Lucy is my older 'sister' and Kara is my 2nd 'mother' since Grandeeny's still the first mother. I think of Rogue as my own brother and this will be great since they both like each other.
I always supported RoLu. They're such an awesome couple! Eeek! Stop it, Wendy! Your not a second version of Mira! ^.^ That just means trouble.
After everyone had finished the ice cream Kara explained something.
"You see I saw you guys because I was helping Lucy, Cosmos, Rengo, etc in Kamido Village do some training. And we're up against bad demons like the ones in Rengo's family!"
My eyes widened so did everyone's but Kara didn't notice so she was just blabbering on.
"I'll have you guys meet Lucy and the others."
And that day I couldn't help but stay awake as how coincidental that was. Or maybe they can both be connected. Probably the latter. I checked my clock and it was 1 AM. I closed my eyes and lulled myself to sleep thanks to the moon shining on my face.
