Ninja Tail
In this chapter, Naruto, Lucy, and their friends are all going to get interviewed. Isn't that nice?
And yes...we're doing this in the order that they placed.
Chapter 36: Interview Time
Lucy and Shikamaru smiled as they sat in the interview's chair. Makarov said that it was time...and since they got first place, they got to go first.
"It's nice to get to be on TV..." noted Lucy.
"I guess so..." answered Shikamaru.
Immediately, they sat down in their interview chairs.
Sure enough, there were two mages ready to interview them.
"I feel rather excited..." said Lucy.
Shikamaru began to yawn.
"Greetings! My name is Cosmo!" exclaimed one of the mages.
"And my name is Wanda!" bellowed another mage.
Lucy and Shikamaru raised eyebrows.
"So, how does it feel to score first place?" inquired Cosmo.
"Pretty good!" bellowed Lucy.
"I was a bit surprised that I won to be honest...I slept during most of the race..." noted Shikamaru.
"Did you now?" asked Cosmo.
"It's true, I did...I don't know how I managed to pull it off..." questioned the shadow ninja.
Cosmo and Wanda shrugged.
"Well, I guess you must be a lucky man." noted Wanda.
"Yes, I am." answered Shikamaru.
"Now we both have shiny gold trophies!" exclaimed Lucy.
"I'm sure that people are going to want your autographs..." acknowledged Cosmo.
"What a drag! How am I going to fall asleep when I have about a million fangirls?" inquired Shikamaru.
"I don't know..." answered Lucy.
Personally, she wondered if she should help Shikamaru shoo them off. He'd been a real help to her as of late.
Not only that, but she had already kissed him on the lips twice.
Immediately, her cheeks turned red.
"So...what do you have planned for your future?" asked Cosmo.
"Maybe visit my father, I suppose. See if he's really turned over a new leaf..." answered Lucy.
"Nooooooooooooooooo!" screamed Kurama.
"Then again, maybe not." noted Lucy, hearing the scream of her nine-tailed fox.
Kurama's pulse settled.
"Who are you talking to?" asked Wanda.
"My nine-tailed fox. He's living inside my stomach." answered Lucy.
"OK..." answered the female interviewer.
"I wonder what having a nine-tailed fox inside me would be like..." noted Shikamaru.
"If you had Shukaku living inside you, you'd never be able to go to sleep." acknowledged Lucy.
Shikamaru shuddered at the thought.
"How do you feel about Fairy Tail?" asked Cosmo.
"I feel like it's my home." answered Lucy.
"I want to keep learning more about it." said Shikamaru.
"Interesting..." spoke Wanda.
"Are you two a couple?" inquired Cosmo.
Lucy and Shikamaru began to blush.
They both shook their heads.
"Oh...well, you two seem to be rather close..." noted Wanda.
"It's true, we are." answered Lucy.
"Then again, I am the interdimensional partner of her best friend." acknowledged Shikamaru.
"Interdimensional partner?" asked Cosmo.
"Yeah...it's the reason I have a nine-tailed fox living inside me." spoke Lucy.
"I'm happy about the transfer to be honest. Being inside Naruto's body was such a pain. This is much more preferable." noted Kurama.
"I'm actually starting to like having you in my body...it's like having a friend that never goes away." acknowledged the teenage girl.
"But I'm not your friend." answered Kurama.
"But your cheeks are turning red..." spoke Lucy.
"How'd you know?" asked the nine-tailed fox.
"I can see you if I concentrate hard enough." answered the kunoichi.
Kurama rolled his eyes.
"How long have you two known each other?" asked Cosmo.
"Since the day I took a fateful trip through an interdimensional portal..." explained Lucy.
"An interdimensional portal?" inquired Wanda.
"I know...it's kind of confusing." answered Shikamaru.
"Well, that's all the time we have for this interview. It's time for you two to have your picture taken." said Cosmo.
Immediately, Lucy and Shikamaru sat in the chair.
The first picture had Lucy smiling for the camera...while Shikamaru took a snooze.
The second picture had Lucy beginning to yawn, with Shikamaru still sleeping.
The last picture had Lucy sleeping...on top of Shikamaru.
Suffice to say, they were rather embarrased about the incident.
But at least it was somewhat pleasurable.
Of course, Naruto and Erza were up next.
"It's nice to get to do an interview for you..." noted the chunin.
"It sure is." agreed Erza.
Sure enough, Cosmo and Wanda were happy to interview them.
They were particularly happy to see Erza.
"Good to see you again!" exclaimed Cosmo, shaking Erza's hand.
"It sure is." nodded Erza.
"Is this your boyfriend?" inquired Wanda.
Erza and Naruto began to blush.
Immediately, Naruto tried to explain.
"Er, no...we're the best of friends, but-"
"Alright then." said Cosmo.
"Funny, I was under the impression that you would score first place, Erza...I heard that you were one of the strongest mages Fairy Tail has..." noted Wanda.
"Well, this armor does kind of weigh me down..." spoke Erza.
"Do you want me to take it off?" inquired Naruto.
"No no no. I'm fine." answered the knight.
Immediately, she Requiped into a red dress.
"That's better." spoke Erza.
"Wow..." murmured Naruto.
"Yes, I chose to wear a strapless dress. Why do you ask?" inquired the knight.
"No reason...heh heh." answered Naruto.
Curious, she noticed that Naruto's cheeks had turned red.
"Hmm..." thought Erza.
"So, how's life as an S-Class Mage?" asked Cosmo.
"Pretty good. Pretty good. I actually went on a mission yesterday..." explained the knight.
"How did that turn out for you?" inquired Wanda.
"Well..." answered Erza.
Erza slashed and stabbed the demon, causing it to explode into ichor.
"Well, hopefully it will stop possessing people's bodies and spinning their heads around like a record." noted the knight.
Immediately, she began to wipe up the blood with a mop.
"There! Now it looks like the demon was never there!" exclaimed Erza.
She had mopped the floor with the demon...and then had wiped his blood off the floor too.
"How about that?" thought the knight.
"So...the mission was a success?" inquired Naruto.
"Yes...I was a bit surprised that it was an S-Class Mission to be honest. The demon really wasn't all that tough." noted Erza.
"I guess you're just that strong." acknowledged the chunin.
"I guess so." answered Naruto.
"Funny, I heard about you...apparently, you're a fairly recent recruit to Fairy Tail." spoke Cosmo.
"Yeah...that's because I'm not from Fiore." spoke the chunin.
"You're not?" inquired Wanda.
"I'm actually from Konoha..." answered Naruto.
"Konoha? Never heard of it..." spoke Cosmo.
"That's because it's all the way in another world..." explained the former jinchuriki.
"My head hurts..." complained Wanda.
Oddly enough, she had heard Lucy mention something similar not too long ago.
Who would have thought that there was more than one world in the universe?
"It's actually nice to be a member of Fairy Tail, to be honest...I don't have a nine-tailed fox living inside my body anymore." noted Naruto.
"Didn't Lucy say that she had a nine-tailed fox body inside her?" asked Cosmo.
"That's because I ended up transfering him to Lucy by accident." explained the chunin.
"I see..." comprehended Wanda.
"Don't worry, she doesn't mind. I inherited her summoner keys, so it was a pretty decent tradeoff." noted Naruto.
"I suppose it was." agreed Erza.
"Not only that, she can use my Rasengan!" exclaimed the chunin.
"Rasengan?" inquired Cosmo.
"It's basically a great big sphere of energy..." explained Naruto.
"I see..." answered Wanda.
"It's rather impressive, now that I think of it..." noted Erza.
"Yeah...it took my dad three years to master it..." pointed out the chunin.
"How long did it take you to master it?" inquired the knight.
"About a month..." answered Naruto.
Cosmo and Wanda began to whistle.
"Nowadays I'm working on using a Twin Rasengan technique...that way the jutsu will be twice as strong..." spoke the chunin.
"How's that coming along?" asked Erza.
"Pretty well. I just need a bit more time to train, that's all." answered Naruto.
"Good luck with that then." spoke Cosmo.
"Yeah...luck is all I need...and skill." noted the chunin.
Curious, he decided to see if he could make a Twin Rasengan right then and there.
For a moment, it appeared that he had succeeded...but he quickly noticed that one Rasengan was much smaller than the other.
"Well, this is still an improvement over just one...but I think I can do better." noted Naruto.
"Probably." nodded Erza.
Personally he wondered if he and Lucy should try tutoring each other. They were interdimensional partners after all.
"Well, it's time for you to have your pictures taken. Don't be camera shy!" exclaimed Wanda.
"We won't. We won't." answered Naruto.
Immediately, the duo began to have their pictures taken.
The first picture had Erza smiling for the camera while Naruto ate some delicious ramen.
The second picture had Naruto and Erza sharing the ramen together.
The last picture had Naruto and Erza accidentally kissing each other on the lips, much to their embarrasment.
"Deja vu..." thought Lucy.
Next to have their interview was Sakura and Gajeel.
Unfortunately, Sakura was in her underpants.
"Agh! Put some clothes on!" demanded Cosmo.
"D'oh! Well, good thing I was wearing my sarashi..." murmured Sakura.
Curious, she noticed that Gajeel's nose was bleeding heavily.
Immediately, she began to use a healing jutsu to heal Gajeel's snozz.
"Thank you." answered the iron dragonslayer.
In return, he handed her some clothes.
"Thank you...but why does this outfit make me look goth?" inquired Sakura.
"It was the only clothes I had that would fit you..." answered Gajeel.
"Oh...do you think it looks good on me?" asked the kunoichi.
Gajeel nodded.
Sakura began to smile.
Immediately, they sat down in the interview chairs.
"It is safe for us to open our eyes?" asked Cosmo.
"Yes." answered Sakura.
Cosmo and Wanda opened their eyes.
"Phew! That's a relief! You've got to stop taking your clothes off in public!" exclaimed Wanda.
"I know...I inherited that from my interdimensional partner, Gray Fullbuster." explained Sakura.
"She's been giving me nosebleeds ever since." noted Gajeel.
"Yeah..." answered the kunoichi sheepishly.
"Well, try not to do that in public..." suggested Cosmo.
"Right, of course." nodded Sakura.
"Anyways, congratulations on crossing the finish line together!" exclaimed Cosmo.
"Yeah...I actually wasn't paying attention when that happened...I was trying to catch Naruto and Lucy during most of the race..." explained the kunoichi.
"I actually helped her." noted Gajeel.
"I appreciate it." spoke Sakura.
Gajeel began to smirk in satisfaction.
"Are you two boyfriend and girlfriend?" inquired Cosmo.
Gajeel and Sakura began to blush.
"Why do we keep asking that?" asked Wanda.
"Well, we do happen to be a couple..." noted Cosmo.
"That's true..." acknowledged the female interviewer.
"We're not a couple...we've only known each other for about fifteen chapters..." explained Gajeel.
"Did you just break the fourth wall?" asked Sakura.
"Is that a big deal?" inquired the iron dragonslayer.
"Meh...probably not." answered the kunoichi.
"I did save her from being a genki girl though..." noted Gajeel.
"Huh?" asked Cosmo.
"It's a long story..." explained Sakura.
"One that involves gypsies..." continued the iron dragonslayer.
"I heard that they were vengeful..." noted Wanda.
"They sure are." nodded Sakura.
Personally, she wondered if Happy should ever visit a fortuneteller again. From what she knew about him...he was a klutz.
"So, Gray is your interdimensional partner?" asked Wanda.
"Yes, he is...I can use his ice magic." answered Sakura.
"Interesting..." noted Cosmo.
"Interdimensional portals make my head spin..." complained Wanda.
"Should I try using one?" questioned Gajeel.
"Maybe." shrugged Sakura.
"I bet I'd get something nice out of it..." noted the iron dragonslayer.
"But you might become a stripper." warned Tsunade's apparentice.
Gajeel sweatdropped.
"That's...true." acknowledged the former Phantom Lord mage.
"Yeah...wouldn't want you to die of embarrassment." noted Sakura.
"Yeah..." agreed Gajeel.
Suddenly, Sakura began to take off her shirt.
"Not again!" exclaimed the iron dragonslayer.
Frantically, she put her shirt back down.
"Ugh..." murmured the kunoichi.
Cosmo and Wanda began to sigh.
"What an awkward interview this is turning out to be..." spoke Cosmo.
"I know..." agreed Wanda.
"Sorry...I can't help it." apologized Sakura.
"At this rate you're going to make me start running around in my underpants..." muttered Gajeel.
Sakura began to blush.
"That's...not something that I look forward to." noted Wanda.
"What? Do you think I'm ugly? I actually got my looks from my mother..." asked Gajeel.
Cosmo began to sweatdrop.
"I think you look kind of cute..." murmured Sakura.
"What?" asked the iron dragonslayer.
Sakura began to blush again.
"So...I heard that you used to be part of Phantom Lord. Why did you decide to leave?" inquired Wanda.
"Master Jose ate the Exceed I befriended..." explained Gajeel.
"I see..." answered Cosmo.
"It was a shame. I thought we had something between us." noted the iron dragonslayer.
Sakura placed her hand on Gajeel's shoulder.
This time, it was his turn to blush.
"Well, that's enough for this interview. It's time for you two to have your pictures taken." spoke Wanda.
"Alright!" exclaimed Gajeel.
Immediately, Sakura and Gajeel went up to the camera.
The first picture had Gajeel trying to hog the spotlight from Sakura.
The second picture had Sakura trying to push Gajeel out of the way so that she could be in the picture.
The last picture had Sakura falling on top of Gajeel, much to the embarrassment of them both.
Next up was Juvia and Gray.
Unsurprisingly, Juvia was very happy that she got to do an interview with Gray.
"This is the best day of my life!" exclaimed the water mage.
"But we only scored fourth place..." pointed out Gray.
"Who cares?!" bellowed Juvia.
"Um..." murmured the ice mage.
Immediately, Gray began to take his shirt off, causing Juvia to squeal.
"Not again!" bellowed Cosmo.
"I can't believe we have another stripper here..." complained Wanda.
"Huh? Oh, that's right...Sakura went right before us." noted Gray.
"It's true, she did..." acknowledged Juvia.
"She mentioned something about your interdimensional partner..." questioned Cosmo.
"Yeah...I've inherited her super strength and her short temper...I actually beat up someone on the way here." explained the ice mage.
"You did?!" exclaimed Wanda.
"He was groping Juvia..." spoke Gray.
"It was...scary." noted Juvia.
"I think we better stay on your good side." suggested Cosmo.
Wanda nodded in agreement.
"Relax...I'm a nice guy...most of the time." answered Gray.
"He sure is!" exclaimed Juvia.
Cosmo and Wanda sighed in relief.
"Right...so, I heard that your hometown was destroyed by a demon..." said Cosmo.
"I'm afraid so." nodded Gray.
Juvia placed her hand on Gray's shoulder.
"Thanks..." answered the ice mage.
"I know how you feel...I lost my teammates to a madman..." murmured Juvia.
Immediately, she began to cry.
Gray put his hand on her shoulder, causing her to smile.
"So...are you two boyfriend and girlfriend? I've already had three interviewers say that wasn't true, but-"
Cosmo didn't have to finish that sentence.
"We actually are." answered the ice mage.
"How about that..." said Wanda.
'I know...we are so in love..." noted Juvia.
"She stalked me at first...but once she agreed to stop doing so, I couldn't help but fall in love with her." nodded Gray.
"That's sweet..." spoke Wanda.
Now that she thought of it, Cosmo initially behaved the same way.
"Personally I'm glad that we finished in the same position..." spoke Gray.
"Fourth place wasn't too bad...wasn't it?" inquired Juvia.
"No, it really wasn't." nodded the ice mage.
"So...how long have you two known each other?" asked Wanda curiously.
"Since she went on a mission to send Lucy to Phantom Lord..." spoke Gray.
"She used to be part of Phantom Lord too?" inquired Cosmo.
"Well, she quit after her teammates were slain by Kenichi...god, I hate that man..." murmured the ice mage.
"Who's Kenichi?" asked Wanda.
"A man that you never want to meet in your lifetime." answered Gray. Personally he felt rather unfortunate that he had a chance encounter with Kenichi himself, even if he was fortunate enough to survive.
Cosmo frowned. He wasn't sure who Kenichi was...but he didn't sound like a good person.
"Is he going to pay Fiore a visit?" asked the male interviewer.
"That's rather unlikely. He happens to be from the world of ninja...much like some of my friends." explained Gray.
Cosmo and Wanda let out a sigh of relief.
"You might not be better off here at the world of magic though...I heard that there's an evil sorceress by the name of Chiyoye Headstone on the loose..." noted Juvia.
"She killed no less than a dozen of our recruits...gruesomely." acknowledged Gray.
Cosmo and Wanda both sighed. Was there anywhere that was safe?
"Chiyoye Headstone?" asked Cosmo.
"If Kenichi is the most evil ninja in history, then Chiyoye's the most evil mage in our history books." noted the ice mage.
Once again, the duo sighed. Kenichi and Chiyoye sounded utterly repulsive.
"You're going to protect us from them...right?" asked Wanda.
"Well, we can try. Juvia and I both have a personal grudge against Kenichi. He's killed so many people...and quite frankly, so has Chiyoye." noted Gray.
"I want to make him pay." agreed Juvia.
"Well, after you've dealt with Kenichi, you might want to go after Chiyoye next..." acknowledged Cosmo.
"Well, I don't think we can take them on alone...Kenichi and Chiyoye are both very strong." pointed out Gray.
"Yeah...we were lucky to survive a battle against one of Kenichi's clones." acknowledged Juvia.
"Kenichi can create copies of himself?" asked Cosmo.
"He usually does most of his dirty work without summoning clones...but yes, he can." answered the ice mage.
Cosmo and Wanda looked worried. Was there anywhere in the world of ninja that was safe?
"Well, thanks for warning us about those two...let's have your picture taken now, shall we?" beckoned Cosmo.
Immediately, Gray and Juvia prepared to have their picture taken.
The first picture had Gray and Juvia smiling for the camera.
The second picture had Juvia kissing Gray on the lips. Apparently, he was surprised, because his eyes were wide open.
The last picture had Juvia kissing Gray on the lips as well. This time, Gray's eyes were closed, suggesting that he was happy to kiss Juvia.
Next up was Jet.
"Hey there...we were expecting you to score first place. Then again, I suppose fifth place wasn't too shabby either." noted Wanda.
"Well, I had serious competition this time..." spoke Jet.
"You did?" asked Cosmo.
"I ended up sharing my speed powers with someone else." explained the fastest mage in Fairy Tail.
"You did?" inquired Wanda.
"It was an accident..." explained the speed mage.
"I see..." comprehended Cosmo.
"So...who did you share your powers with?" inquired Wanda.
"A girl by the name of Ino..." spoke Jet.
"Interesting..." thought the female interviewer.
"So, how are things between you and your teammates...Team Shadow Gear?" asked Cosmo.
"As good as ever." answered Jet.
"That's nice." noted Wanda.
"It's always a joy working with them." said the speed mage.
"I bet it is." agreed Cosmo.
"It always feels strange teaming up with someone else." murmured Jet.
"I suppose." acknowledged Wanda.
"I wonder what it would have been like if our guildmaster decided to pair me up with someone else." questioned the speed mage.
"That would be an interesting experience...wouldn't it?" inquired Cosmo.
Jet nodded.
"I wonder what it would be like if I had to interview someone with another person..." spoke Wanda.
"Well, we've both had to call in sick at times." acknowledged Cosmo.
"True..." nodded the female interviewer.
"I've had that happen to me too..." spoke Jet.
Whenever that happened, they always did have to take a temporary replacement. He had found himself working with someone other than Levy and Droy in the past.
It was always a rather interesting experience.
He in particular remembered the time where they went with Cana instead of Levy...because she had a doctor's appointment.
"Glug glug glug..." murmured Cana.
"Why are you always drinking?" asked Jet.
"Because it's so pleasurable...why is your buddy Droy always eating?" inquired the alcohol lover.
Curious, he noticed that Droy was eating some chicken wings.
"Nom nom nom!" bellowed the chubby mage.
"Can I have some?" inquired Cana.
"Sure!" exclaimed Droy.
Immediately, Droy handed Cana some chicken wings.
"Thanks...these will go great with my booze..." noted the card mage.
"I suppose it will." answered Droy.
Something told Jet that Droy and Cana were going to enjoy working together.
"Now that I think of it...maybe they should hang out sometime." noted Droy.
"Maybe..." acknowledged Cosmo.
"Well, it's time for you to have your picture taken now." said Wanda.
"Alright!" exclaimed the speed mage.
Apparently, he had been waiting for this.
Immediately, he smiled for the camera.
The first picture had him picking his nose.
The second picture had him realizing what he was doing, with his cheeks turning pink.
The third picture had him using a tissue instead.
"Thank you for your time." said Wanda.
The next racers to have their interview were Choji and Ino.
"I'm so glad that I get to be on TV..." said Ino.
"Me too." agreed Choji.
"Best of all, I get to be on TV with you!" exclaimed the kunoichi.
"I know..." nodded the Akimichi clan member.
"Are you two boyfriend and girlfriend too?" inquired Wanda.
"We sure are!" exclaimed Ino.
"Funny how we keep getting ties..." noted Cosmo.
"Yes, I know..." agreed Wanda.
"So...are you two both from the world of ninja? You both seemed to be dressed differently than the mages of Fairy Tail." asked the male interviewer.
"Yes, we are. We came here for the twenty-four endurance race." explained Choji.
"I'm glad that we scored sixth place!" exclaimed Ino.
"Me too." nodded the Akimichi clan member.
"Right...so, I heard that you inherited Jet's speed magic...I bet it helped you during the race, didn't it?" inquired Wanda.
"It sure did." confirmed the psychic kunoichi.
"I wish I could run like that..." said Cosmo.
"Well, Jet did inherit my psychic abilities in return." noted Ino.
"He sure did." answered Choji.
"Did you inherit anything from someone else?" inquired Wanda.
"Yes...I inherited Droy's plant magic..." explained the Akimichi ninja.
"Very interesting." thought the female interviewer.
"I think I'll use it to grow a garden for Ino." spoke Choji.
"How sweet!" squealed Ino.
"I figured you would enjoy it..." said the body expanding teenager.
"I sure would!" nodded the Yamanaka kunoichi.
"You two sure are close..." acknowledged Wanda.
"Just like us!" exclaimed Cosmo.
"Yeah...just like us." agreed the female interviewer.
Immediately, her cheeks began to turn red.
"So...how long have you two known each other?" inquired Cosmo.
"Since we were genin..." answered Choji.
"Since you were genin?" asked Wanda.
"Well, we weren't always chunin...we had to take exams first." explained Ino.
"Unfortunately, we both failed the first time around..." noted the chubby ninja.
"It didn't really matter though. Orochimaru came and ruined everything." noted the kunoichi.
"Orochimaru?" asked Cosmo.
"He's this evil scientist that likes experimenting on ninja...he also has an unhealty obsesssion with snakes." explained Choji.
"An evil scientist that likes to experiment on ninja...you mean like Dr. Frankenstein?" inquired Wanda.
"Yes...like Dr. Frankenstein." explained Ino.
"If only he wasn't so obsessed with learning every jutsu there is..." noted Choji.
"If only..." agreed the psychic kunoichi.
"So...what's this about Orochimaru coming along and ruining everything?" asked Wanda.
"Well, Orochimaru successfully assassinated the Third Hokage." explained Ino.
"The Third Hokage?" inquired Cosmo.
"Yes...he was our leader." continued the psychic kunoichi.
"It was really sad...he was the father of our sensei too..." noted Choji.
"He managed to cripple Orochimaru though...so at least that was something." said Ino optimistically.
"He managed to cripple him?" questioned Cosmo.
"Yeah...he couldn't use his arms after the Third Hokage had his way with him." explained the chubby ninja.
"That's really impressive..." noted Wanda.
"Yeah...it didn't do us all that much good...he eventually found another host body to make him better again." stated Ino.
"That's too bad." answered Cosmo.
"On the plus side, this meant that he couldn't use Sasuke Uchiha as a host body until three years had passed..." spoke Choji.
"It's a shame that Sasuke Uchiha had to defect from us...I thought he was a hunk." said Ino.
"Well, that was before we became a couple..." noted the chubby ninja.
Ino began to giggle.
"Sasuke Uchiha defected from you?" asked Cosmo.
"Yeah...he wanted to kill his brother for what he did to his clan...and he felt that Konoha wasn't making him strong enough..." explained Ino.
"That's sad." answered Wanda.
"Now that I think of it...I heard that he and his clan suffered from a curse of hatred that caused them to do terrible things..." acknowledged the psychic kunoichi.
"Do they know?" asked Choji.
"The only way to get rid of it is for someone to successfully reach out to them..." explained Ino.
"I hope that happens someday." said Wanda.
"Me too..." murmured the psychic kunoichi. Granted, she already had Choji...but it would be nice if Sasuke Uchiha could come back to Konoha one day.
Maybe if they were lucky Tsunade would pardon him...but he had a lot to answer for.
"Right...it's time for you two to have your pictures taken." said Wanda.
Ino and Choji were both very excited.
The first picture had Ino smiling for the camera. Unfortunately, Choji let out a burp. He had drank some soda before the interview.
The second picture had Ino letting out a burp while Choji sweatdropped. She had shared that particular soda with Choji before the interview.
The last picture had them both blushing. The experience was a bit embarrassing for them. Maybe they should have drank some soda after the interview.
"Have a nice day." said Wanda.
Elfman and Mirajane entered the room a few minutes later.
"Good to see you again, Mirajane! It's always nice to have you pose for the Sorceror's Magazine..." said Cosmo.
Wanda sweatdropped.
"Good to see you again too." nodded Mirajane.
"You two are brother and sister, am I right?" asked Cosmo.
"Yes, we are." confirmed Elfman.
"I guess it's a coincidence that you both scored seventh place then..." noted Wanda.
"We decided to work together to win the race, actually." explained Mirajane.
"How sweet..." answered Cosmo.
"I think we did fairly well...though I think we could have done better too." acknowledged Elfman.
"Maybe next year we'll both get first place?" inquired Mirajane.
"Maybe we will." answered the S-Class candidate.
Personally they were looking forward to getting a gold trophy...but they couldn't have everything.
"Right then. Were you looking forward to the race?" asked Wanda.
"Yeah, we were. We found it to be a very enjoyable experience." said Mirajane.
"I would love to race again!" exclaimed Elfman.
"Alright then..." spoke the female interviewer.
"Were you looking forward to this interview?" asked Cosmo.
"We sure were." nodded Mirajane.
"I get to have my picture taken with Mirajane, so yes!" exclaimed Elfman.
"That does sound like fun..." acknowledged the male interviewer.
"Then again I have had my picture taken for the Sorceror's Magazine at least half a dozen times before..." noted Mirajane.
"We know..." nodded Wanda.
"I have to admit...I have a lot of outfits." acknowledged the S-Class Mage.
"You sure do." grinned Elfman.
"For the interview I decided to wear this pink dress..." explained Mirajane.
Sure enough, she was wearing a pink dress.
"I think it looks nice on you!" exclaimed the S-Class Mage.
"You flatter me." answered Mirajane.
Likewise, Elfman was dressed in a tuxedo.
"I think that outfit looks nice on you." said the demon mage.
"Returning the favor, are we?" asked Elfman.
Mirajane nodded.
"Right...I heard that your sister is dead. I'm so sorry to hear that..." sympathized Wanda.
"We've accepted the loss at this point..." explained the S-Class Mage.
"It's a shame...Natsu wanted to marry her." noted Elfman.
"He did? I didn't know that..." said Cosmo.
"Well, he did...I guess he's just going to have to find someone else." acknowledged Mirajane.
"Maybe Hinata?" asked Elfman.
"Yes...maybe Hinata." nodded the S-Class Mage.
"Who's Hinata?" inquired Cosmo.
"She's one of the two racers that scored last place...the other being Natsu himself." explained Mirajane.
"I see..." comprehended Wanda.
"I believe that you're going to be interviewing her and Natsu not too long from now." continued Elfman.
"Oh, that's right...we're interviewing each and every one of the racers..." noted Cosmo.
"That includes the racers that scored last place...expect them to be transvestites." explained Mirajane.
"Ah...the traditional punishment for the losers..." spoke Wanda.
Personally she wondered if she was going to have to stifle the urge to laugh.
"I was worried that we were going to have to be transvestites if we lost to be honest..." said Elfman.
"That was a genuine concern." agreed Mirajane.
"I wouldn't want to have to dress up as a woman..." noted Cosmo.
"What about the time you played around with my clothing? You wore one of my bras on your head..." asked Wanda.
"Well, that was the exception..." explained the male interviewer.
Wanda began to giggle.
"Have you ever messed around with Mirajane's clothing?" asked Cosmo.
"Only one or twice." answered Elfman.
Immediately, he began to blush.
"Why were you wearing my panties?" asked Mirajane.
"I don't know..." shrugged Elfman.
"Did you think they looked good on you?" inquired the S-Class Mage.
"Maybe..." answered the S-Class candidate.
Both Cosmo and Wanda began to blush.
"This interview is turning out to be rather...interesting." said Wanda.
"I know..." nodded Cosmo.
Mirajane and Elfman both shook their heads up and down.
"I suppose it was only a matter of time before we interviewed an S-Class Mage..." acknowledged Cosmo.
"I'll say!" exclaimed Wanda.
"Yeah...it was only a matter of time before I sat in a chair like this..." nodded Mirajane.
"This chair is so comfortable..." murmured Elfman.
"I'm with you there." concurred the S-Class Mage.
"Well, that's all the time we have for your interview. It was nice to have you with us, Mirajane." said Cosmo.
"Thank you." answered Mirajane.
Immediately, she and Elfman went to have their picture taken.
The first picture had Elfman wrap his arm around the right side of Mirajane's neck, causing her to smile. Likewise, Elfman was smiling as well.
The second picture had Elfman flexing his muscles while Mirajane put some lipstick on her lips.
The last picture had the bench Elfman and Mirajane were sitting in suddenly collapsing underneath the former's weight, causing lipstick to be splattered across the latter's face.
"Don't worry...we can fix that." said Wanda.
Sure enough, Cosmo began to cast a spell to repair the bench, causing it to look as good as new.
Mirajane and Elfman let out a sigh of relief. They didn't want to have to pay for the damages.
Next up were Alzack and Bisca.
"Well, if it isn't for Fairy Tail's lovebirds!" exclaimed Wanda.
"Yes, that's us." nodded Alzack.
"It's a pleasure to get the opportunity to meet you." spoke Cosmo.
Alzack and Bisca smiled.
"It was a rather exciting race..." acknowledged Bisca.
"It sure was." concurred Wanda.
"I'll say! I bet people are going to talk about it for ages..." noted Cosmo.
"They sure are." nodded Alzack.
"I'm so glad that we're going to have our picture taken together!" exclaimed Bisca.
"Yeah...everyone whose tied for the same position in the race seems happy about who they ended up with..." acknowledged Wanda.
"I'd be pretty happy to take a picture with you, so..." answered Cosmo.
"Yeah...me too." agreed the female interviewer.
"So, Bisca...how long have you been wearing that hat?" inquired Wanda.
"Since I was young." explained Bisca.
"When you were young?" asked Cosmo.
"Since I was four." continued the cowgirl.
"Wow..." gasped Wanda.
"I know...I'm really attached to this hat..." spoke Bisca.
"Got your hat!" exclaimed Alzack, removing the hat from her head.
"Hey!" bellowed the gunner.
"If you want it back, kiss me on the lips!" demanded the cowboy.
"With pleasure!" squealed Bisca.
Immediately, they began to make out.
"Aren't you in love..." noted Cosmo.
"So are we!" exclaimed Wanda.
"Oh yeah..." recalled the male interviewer.
Alzack returned the hat to Bisca.
"Thank you..." cheered the cowgirl as she put the hat back on her head.
"You're welcome." answered the cowboy.
Once again, they began to make out.
"Are you going to spend the entire interview doing that? Just saying..." inquired Wanda.
"Sorry, sorry!" apologized Bisca.
"We're a bit excited today..." noted Alzack.
"I bet you are." understood Cosmo.
Immediately, Alzack and Bisca began to take deep breaths.
"That's right...try to calm yourselves down." spoke Wanda.
"So, how long have you two been dating?" inquired Cosmo.
"For about five years." answered Alzack.
Cosmo and Wanda whistled. Not even they had been dating that long.
They had been dating...for about three months. Personally, they wondered why the duo weren't married yet.
That certainly would be a rather exciting wedding. Just how many of their friends were going to attend?
Probably everybody in Fairy Tail.
"Do you two...think that you should get married?" inquired Cosmo.
"Weddings are expensive..." noted Bisca.
"Well, that's true..." spoke Wanda.
"We're not sure if we could afford a wedding ring..." -questioned Alzack.
"They sure are inflating these days..." noted Cosmo.
"Maybe if we do a few more missions..." shrugged Bisca.
"Or if we catch a few outlaws..." spoke Alzack. He just loved doing bounty hunts with his girlfriend.
"Yeah...maybe that will work." suggested Wanda.
"Know any good bounties?" asked the cowboy.
"Well, I heard that there's a man that won't stop streaking in public..." answered Cosmo.
Wanda began to blush.
"Really?" inquired Bisca.
"You might want to dress him before sending him to the authorities.." noted the male interviewer.
"Yeah..." nodded Alzack. Wouldn't want anyone to go blind now.
"So...what's it like out in the West? You happen to be immigrants, are you not?" asked Cosmo.
"Yes, we are...just for the record, we didn't cross the border illegally. We signed a legal document." explained Bisca.
"That's a relief..." answered Wanda.
"Believe us...Fairy Tail would probably throw us out if we were." noted Alzack.
"That's true..." acknowledged Cosmo.
"To be honest, we were a bit glad to leave. We kept having duststorms..." explained Bisca.
"That doesn't sound like fun." sympathized Wanda.
"They never were." nodded Alzack.
"Other than that, it was rather pleasurable though. We decided that we needed to get out a bit more, however...so we decided to head to Fiore to do some sight-seeing. Fairy Tail noticed that we were skilled magicians...and well, you probably know where I'm going with this." clarified Bisca.
"Yeah...well, that's all the time we have for this interview. Let's have your pictures taken for the magazine." said Cosmo.
Immediately, the duo sat down on the bench.
The first picture had them making out.
The second picture...also had them making out.
The third picture...you guessed it, had them making out.
"That was a bit boring..." noted Cosmo.
"I know..." concurred Wanda.
The next person to have their interview was Cana...who was currently drinking some liquor.
"That's the stuff." said the card mage.
"You sure you should drink before an interview?" inquired Cosmo.
"Relax...I never get drunk. Except for maybe once or twice..." answered Cana.
"I'm having a hard time believing that you're a girl..." questioned Wanda.
"Well, my parents were expecting a boy..." noted the alcohol lover.
"That explains a lot." murmured Cosmo.
"Er, yeah..." agreed Wanda.
Once again, Cana began to drink some booze.
She let out a burp.
"So...how long have you been drinking alcohol?" inquired Cosmo.
"Since I was thirteen." explained the drinker.
Cosmo and Wanda gasped in shock.
"That's two years before the legal age!" bellowed Cosmo.
"I think I'm going to have a heart attack!" screamed Wanda.
"I know...my friends made me go on all sorts of dares..." answered Cana.
"Lousy peer pressure..." murmured the male interviewer.
"Yeah...I've had to deal with that in the past...why did I have to be so popular?" inquired Wanda.
"If you weren't so popular, you might not have gotten a job at the Sorceror's Magazine..." questioned Cosmo.
"You weren't very popular at school...and yet here you are now." pointed out the female interviewer.
"Oh yeah, that's right..." remembered the male interviewer.
Then again, Wanda had stuck up for him every time he had an encounter with the bullies.
"Are you going to dare me to take my clothes off?" asked Cana.
"What?!" bellowed Cosmo. The only person he wanted to see naked was his girlfriend Wanda...and the lady that delivered him his mail.
"Heavens, no!" screeched Wanda.
"Alright then..." answered the card mage.
"I heard that Gildarts Clive is your father...are you popular because of that?" asked Wanda.
"Well, I do have my share of admirers. Then again, that might be because of my bikini top." noted Cana.
"Why did you wear that for an interview?" inquired Cosmo.
"Because I look so good in it!" exclaimed the card mage.
"Well, that's true..." noted the male interviewer.
Wanda rolled her eyes.
"If you want I can wear something skimpier..." said Cana.
"No no no! You're fine!" exclaimed Cosmo.
Wanda let out a sigh.
"You know what? I think this interview has gone on long enough." noted the female interviewer.
"Really? I thought we were just getting started..." spoke Cana.
"It's better if we end this now." spoke Wanda.
"Yeah, maybe..." nodded Cosmo.
Immediately, Cana sat on the bench.
"Let's just get this over with..." said the female mage.
The first picture had Cana drinking some liquor.
The second picture had Cana drinking an entire barrel of beer.
The last picture had her letting out an enormous burp that nearly broke the camera.
"Hey! Those cameras aren't cheap!" complained Wanda.
"Sorry." apologized Cana as she left the interview room.
The next person to have their interview was Droy.
"This barbecue is delicious!" exclaimed the boy.
"Really?" asked Cosmo.
Immediately, he swallowed the barbecue in one gulp.
"Gosh." said Wanda.
He let out a burp.
"Sorry about that." apologized Droy.
"It's fine...our last interviewee let out an enormous one." noted Cosmo.
"Wow." murmured the member of Team Shadow Gear.
"So...I heard that you were a big eater." spoke Wanda.
"Yeah...I can eat more than anyone else in Fairy Tail." said Droy.
"That's nice..." noted Cosmo.
"Then again, I do have serious competition from Choji Akimichi these days..." acknowledged the plant mage.
"I bet you do." nodded Wanda.
"Maybe I should challenge him to an eating contest..." questioned Droy.
While he was at it, maybe he should try challenging Natsu or Hinata. They seemed to be big eaters too.
Then again, he doubted that he could eat fire like they could. He wasn't exactly a fire dragonslayer.
In fact, fire magic tended to burn his plants.
"How long have you and Jet known each other?" inquired Wanda.
"For about fifteen years." answered Droy.
Wanda and Cosmo whistled.
"How long have you two known each other?" asked the plant mage.
"For about ten years." answered the female interviewer.
"So...about a decade then?" inquired Droy.
Cosmo and Wanda both nodded.
"I've known Levy for longer than that...and she still hasn't proposed to me." complained the plant mage.
"I'm sorry to hear that." sympathized Cosmo.
"Maybe we just aren't meant to be together..." spoke Droy.
Wanda placed her hand on his shoulder.
"Thanks...I needed that." said the plant mage.
Then again, he did find Cana to be rather attractive. Maybe he should try hanging out with her again?
Maybe he could try drinking alcohol and she could try eating some food. That would be rather nice.
"I wonder what it would have been like if we scored the same place..." noted Droy.
That would be a twist, wouldn't it?
"Well, a lot of mages scored the same position..." acknowledged Wanda.
"That's true..." nodded the plant mage.
"Well, that's all the time we have for this interview." said Cosmo.
Immediately, Droy went to have his picture taken.
The first picture had him eating a hamburger.
The second picture had him eating a hot dog.
The last picture had him eating both a hamburger and a hot dog at the same time.
"Wow..." murmured Cosmo.
"I must have a big mouth..." acknowledged Droy.
"You sure do!" exclaimed Wanda.
The next person to have their interview was Levy.
Immediately, she let out a yawn.
"Shouldn't you be more excited?" inquired Cosmo.
"Sorry...ever since I became the interdimensional partner of Shikamaru I've been a real sleepyhead..." explained Levy.
"Sorry to hear that." sympathized Wanda.
"I'm going to need my beauty sleep after this interview." noted the bookworm.
"Probably." nodded Cosmo.
"Maybe I should have slept before the race..." suggested Levy.
"Maybe." agreed Wanda.
Once again, she began to yawn.
"You wouldn't happen to have some coffee...would you?" inquired the letter mage.
"We do, actually." nodded Wanda.
Immediately, she directed her to the coffee maker.
"Thank the first guildmaster!" exclaimed Levy.
Levy went over to the coffee maker and made some coffee.
"Thank goodness the coffee maker wasn't broken." noted the letter mage.
Suddenly, the coffee maker broke.
"And of course it broke right after I said that..." spoke Levy.
"Try not to tempt fate next time..." muttered Wanda.
Immediately, she began to repair the coffee maker.
Levy began to drank the coffee.
"That's better." murmured the letter mage.
Curious, Cosmo and Wanda noticed that Levy's shadow had mysteriously come to life.
"What's up with your shadow?" inquired Cosmo.
"It's been like that ever since I became Shikamaru's interdimensional partner." clarified Levy.
"I see..." nodded Wanda.
Immediately, Levy's shadow shook hands with Cosmo and Wanda.
"Well, at least your shadow seems rather polite." noted Cosmo.
"She sure is." nodded Levy.
Levy's shadow bowed down to Cosmo and Wanda.
"How long have you been his interdimensional partner?" inquired Cosmo.
"About a week...and a half." explained Levy.
"I see." nodded Wanda.
"It's rather useful to be able to bend my own shadow...but it's also made me a slacker." noted the letter mage.
Sure enough, she was skipping a lot of her chores as of late.
"That might explain why you didn't do too well during the race." acknowledged Cosmo.
"Well, my interdimensional partner scored first place, so maybe it was just a coincidence. I don't know. I did manage to make it past Happy, at least." noted Levy.
"That's true." said Wanda.
Once again, Levy began to yawn.
"Darn it! I was hoping that the coffee would last longer..." complained the bookworm.
"How did it leave your body so quickly?" inquired Cosmo.
"I don't know..." answered Levy.
Curious, Wanda noticed that Levy's shadow had drank some of the coffee as well.
"That might explain it..." noted the female interviewer.
"My shadow can drink?" inquired Levy.
"How odd..." murmured Cosmo.
Levy shrugged.
"Right then...it's time for you to have your picture taken." spoke Wanda.
"Finally...now I can go to bed." murmured the letter mage.
The first picture had Levy reading a book.
The second picture had Levy yawning.
The last picture had Levy taking a snooze.
"Wake up!" exclaimed Cosmo.
"What?" inquired the letter mage.
Curious, she realized that she had fallen asleep.
"Sorry about that." apologized Levy.
Immediately, she headed straight towards her bed.
The next person to have their interview was Happy.
"It feels funny interviewing an Exceed..." noted Cosmo.
"I know..." agreed Wanda.
"Sweet! I finally get to be interviewed!" exclaimed the Exceed.
"It must be exciting for you." acknowledged the female interviewer.
"Uh-huh!" bellowed Happy.
"Try to relax for us, will you? We want you to answer some questions." explained Cosmo.
Happy began to hyperventilate.
"So...how long have you and Natsu known each other?" inquired Wanda.
"Since I was a kitten!" exclaimed the Exceed.
"That's a long time." noted Cosmo.
"Uh-huh!" shouted Happy.
"Please use your indoors voice." ordered Wanda.
"Fine..." murmured the Exceed.
"That's better." said the female interviewer.
"I guess you and Natsu are pretty close, huh?" asked Cosmo.
"We sure are. Of course, so are Hinata and I." explained Happy.
"Hinata?" inquired Wanda.
"She looked after me while Natsu was gone." clarified the Exceed.
"Oh...I see." nodded Cosmo.
"That was awfully nice of her." acknowledged Wanda.
"Uh-huh!" bellowed the Exceed.
"Was there a particular reason she looked after you?" questioned Cosmo.
"Well, she happened to be Natsu's interdimensional partner." explained Happy.
"That makes sense..." nodded Wanda.
"It was the least she could do, I suppose." said the Exceed.
"Yeah..." agreed Cosmo."W
"Imagine what I would have done without her..." noted Happy.
"Would you have gone crazy?" inquired Wanda.
"Probably." answered the Exceed.
"Right...it was a good thing you didn't have to wear a strait jacket." spoke the female interviewer.
"Uh-huh!" exclaimed Happy.
"I said use your indoors voice." said Wanda.
"Sorry, sorry!" apologized the Exceed.
"Right then...now that I think of it, you seem to be the only Exceed in Fairy Tail..." noted Cosmo.
"Really? Hmm...I might want to invite some more Exceeds into the guild." questioned Happy.
"Maybe..." answered Wanda.
"I'm sure that I would enjoy the company..." spoke the Exceed.
"What about Natsu and Hinata?" inquired Cosmo.
"They love Exceeds...so yes!" exclaimed Happy.
"Use your indoors voice...I shouldn't have to keep telling you that." complained Wanda.
"That's hard for me..." answered the Exceed.
"Yeah...I can see that." nodded the female interviewer.
Once again, Happy began to hyperventilate.
"Gotta stay calm! Gotta stay calm!" exclaimed the Exceed.
"As you say that...you fail to use your indoors voice." said Wanda.
"I just can't win here..." pouted Happy.
"Well, all that's left now are Natsu and Hinata. Let's have your picture taken!" bellowed Cosmo.
"My picture taken?!" screeched the Exceed.
Unfortunately, Happy did not like flash photography at all.
The first picture had him gasping in shock.
The second picture had him screaming in terror.
The last picture...had him unconscious.
"Oh dear...looks like he fainted." noted Wanda.
"I'll take him out of the interview room." answered Cosmo.
Immediately, he picked up Happy and took him outside the interview room.
Natsu and Hinata entered the room a few minutes later.
"Well, would you look at that! You dressed up as each other!" exclaimed Cosmo.
"Makarov said that we should try it...personally I thought it was a good idea." noted Hinata.
"Uh-huh! He's a genius!" exclaimed Natsu.
"Well, he is your guildmaster...so in theory he would be smart." suggested the female dragonslayer.
"Yeah..." nodded the male dragonslayer.
"I actually kind of like this outfit..." spoke Hinata.
"Me too...this outfit feels so warm and comfortable." answered Natsu.
"I guess there a reason I wore this outfit all the time ever since I became sixteen..." acknowledged the former Hyuga heiress.
"You've got to tell me where I can get outfits like this..." spoke the male dragonslayer.
"Well, I know a decent tailor." answered Hinata.
"You've got to take me to her!" exclaimed Natsu.
"Maybe after the interview." suggested the female dragonslayer.
"Oh, right..." nodded the male dragonslayer.
"I'm sorry that you two both scored last and had to dress up as the opposite gender..." sympathized Wanda.
"It's OK...if it weren't for me, Natsu wouldn't have made it across the finish line at all." noted Hinata.
"He wouldn't have?" inquired Cosmo.
"He injured his ankle." explained the female dragonslayer.
Sure enough, Natsu was wearing a cast around his foot.
"At least it should be better soon...I can heal pretty fast..." spoke the male dragonslayer.
"That explains why you keep getting in fights." noted Hinata.
"Fighting is so much fun!" exclaimed Natsu.
"But I don't want you to hurt yourself..." spoke the female dragonslayer.
"How sweet..." murmured Igneel's foster son.
"Are you two boyfriend and girlfriend? I've already asked this a million times but-"
Natsu and Hinata interrupted Wanda.
"No, we are not! Why do people keep asking us that? We're just very good friends, that's all!" exclaimed the male dragonslayer.
"That might change in the future though." noted the female dragonslayer.
Natsu and Hinata both began to blush.
"Right...if you two become a couple...then you have our support." spoke Cosmo.
"Thank you!" exclaimed the duo in unison.
"I know happy Cosmo and I were when we became a couple..." noted Wanda.
"I bet you were happy." spoke Hinata.
"Uh-huh!" exclaimed Cosmo.
"My father's pretty picky about who I should marry though. He said that I should marry an aristocrat." said the kunoichi.
"Yeah...Lucy's father is a bit like that too." noted Natsu.
"Again, our similarities kind of creep me out...I'm a bit glad that I became your interdimensional partner rather than Lucy's to be honest." answered Hinata.
"I think being your interdimensional partner is awesome! I love my new set of eyes!" exclaimed the fire dragonslayer.
"My pair of eyes are weak for a Hyuga clan member's...that's why my father disinherited me." explained the kunoichi.
"That's too bad." answered Natsu.
Immediately, he pressed his hand on her shoulder, causing her to blush.
"Natsu's such a gentleman..." thought Hinata.
"Wait, your father disinherited you?" asked Natsu.
"He said that my younger sister was a better candidate for the title...oddly enough Neji's Byakugan happens to be pretty strong and he's a member of the branch household." noted the female dragonslayer.
"Maybe I should have a talk with your father..." said the male dragonslayer.
"It's OK...I've come to terms with it...at least my younger sister is happy, right?" answered Hinata.
"That's a relief..." sighed Natsu.
"My sensei said that I was an excellent scout...so it really isn't all that bad." noted the female dragonslayer.
"Alright then." nodded the male dragonslayer.
"Who is your sensei?" asked Cosmo.
"A kunoichi by the name of Kurenai...she's really good at genjutsu." noted Hinata.
"Interesting..." spoke Wanda.
"My teacher happens to be a fire dragon..." answered Natsu.
"Yes...I've actually met the guy. He was a bit surprised to learn that I was also a fire dragonslayer." spoke Hinata.
"How long have you been a fire dragonslayer?" inquired Cosmo.
"For about a month or two." explained the fire dragonslayer.
"Really? You seem awfully good at using my abilities." noted Natsu.
"You flatter me." answered Hinata.
"Well, it looks like we've interviewed everyone. Let's have your picture taken! I hope you don't die of embarrassment..." exclaimed Cosmo.
"We won't...we accepted our fates. We're actually kind of happy to dress as each other in fact." explained Natsu.
Hinata nodded.
Immediately, they sat down in the bench together.
The first picture had Hinata smiling for the camera while Natsu stuck his tongue out.
The second picture had Hinata raising her eyebrow while Natsu continued to sting his tongue out.
The last picture had Hinata sticking her tongue out along with Natsu. Apparently, she had decided to join him.
"Have fun!" exclaimed Cosmo and Wanda.
Immediately, Hinata and Natsu left the room.
It had been a very long series of interviews...
...but Cosmo and Wanda had enjoyed every one of them.
This sure was a long chapter, wasn't it? Maybe I should make the next chapter shorter to compensate...as such, I'm going to keep my author's notes brief.
Merry Christmas!
