Hey Guys, Crescent Rider here and I'm back with another chapter! So please enjoy the chapter!

'Auberon speaking'

'thoughts'


Auberon and Iris' house

Within a forest, Not too far from town, was a small house. The house's size was the same as a hut, with a few windows on the side and front of the house, a sky blue door, a hanging sign on the left side of the door frame which says 'Whistling Fairies' Residence' with a mailbox on the side of the door

Auberon and Iris relaxing after their last job request with Mystogan. Even though he can complete the job request all by himself, Auberon and Iris simply tagged along with him since the two have a friendly relationship with Mystogan even though he's the mysterious type of wizard in the guild.

The two are currently eating their breakfast while Iris drinks a cup of warm tea since she likes to feel a bit relaxed after finishing a long job request.

"So Auberon," Iris called out, putting down her cup of tea "Why did you decide we take an S-Class quest?"

'Well...' Auberon said, after finishing his meal 'I was hoping we'd try one of the S-Class quests on the second floor since we've been doing pretty much every job in the request board for several months now. Plus, we might need the money to pay for our living expenses soon'

"Come on, Auberon," Iris said, lying back on her chair "That's about a few more months from now. Even if we aren't able to complete the quest, We still have the money to pay for our living expenses"

'I guess, you're right about that' Auberon said, standing up from his chair 'But, I'd like to save a few more just in case'

Iris sighs as she stood up from her chair, started picking up the plates and places them in their sink as she began cleaning them. Meanwhile, Auberon went to his room and changes into his daily clothes and wore his quivers on his waist. He also noticed that the arrows are missing. And instead of searching for them, He simply uses his Whistle Magic and both arrows flew straight at him while he grabs both arrows and places them on each quiver

After that, He goes out from his room and noticed Iris has finished cleaning the plates and had already worn her different outfit which consists of a dark purple shirt, dark brown leather vest, long pants and fingerless leather gloves with a hole at the back of the gloves.

'You know, I'm still impressed you managed to perform spatial magic' Auberon said, placing his hands on his hips

"Not really," Iris said, "I just studied under Erza until I managed to do it on my own. That's all"

'Hmph, And thanks to her teachings. Everyone in the guild started calling you "The Huntress of Fairy Tail"' Auberon said, chuckled under his scarf

"Well at least mine's better than yours, 'Fairy Prince'" Iris countered and Auberon stared at her for a moment... Until he became glum and crouches down on the ground

'Why would you bring that up?' He asked, with a glum look on his face while Iris mischievously giggles at the sight of him

"Sorry, Auberon. I didn't mean to mention it to you again" She apologized, appearing behind him

A few moments later, Auberon calmed down and turned to his sister

'Anyway, Let's just go the guildhall and do this quest already' Auberon demanded

"Alright, Auberon" She replied

And both headed out to the door while Iris locks the door and Auberon applying an illusion spell to the entire house. Making it invisible for the naked eye to see. The reason for this is to prevent any kind of theft that might occur in the own home even though it's practically built within a forest.

As the two went their way towards the guildhall. They were unaware of a certain someone stealing their S-Class quest last night

Meanwhile, Fairy Tail Guild Hall

After discovering that one of the S-Class Quest was stolen from the second floor. Everyone was wondering who'd have the right in mind would steal an S-Class Quest... Until a certain man on the second floor spilled out the truth

"I know, A little blue cat flew up here and ripped it off the board," Laxus said without a care at all

"It was Happy?!" Mirajane said in shock and everyone else assumed that Happy stole it for Natsu and Lucy

"That's a serious breach of the rules," Laxus pointed out "Hey, Gramps! A stunt like that would kick you out of the guild, Am I right?"

Makarov stayed silent as he closed his eyes and crossed his arms together while Laxus continued "Not that it matters, It's not like those three losers are coming back

"Laxus, When you saw him why didn't you stop them!" Mira yelled

"Oh come on, I only saw a blue cat flying with a piece of paper in his mouth trying to act all sneaky," Laxus said with a smug look on his face "I had no idea it was Happy. Besides, Natsu isn't clear for the S-Class. I never dreamed he would be the one who'd break the rules"

Mirajane gave a death glare on Laxus while he, on the other hand, was unfazed by her anger "You've never given look in a while now..."

"This is not good," Makarov mumbled and turned to Mirajane "Well, Which job was it?"

"For lifting the curse on Galuna Island" Mirajane replied

"What?!" Makarov exclaimed, snapping his eyes in shock while some of the guild members followed

"Laxus! Do and fetch them at once!" Makarov ordered

"Yeah right, I've got better things to do, Gramps," Laxus said, "Besides, everyone in Fairy Tail can take care of themselves, Right?"

"I don't care about how you feel about Natsu!" Makarov yelled, "The fact is that you are the only one strong enough to bring him back by force!"

"Sorry Master," Gray said, standing up from his chair "But I'm afraid I have to disagree with you"

"You mean you'll be the one to bring back Natsu here?" Makarov asked and Gray nodded "Fine, But remember to use force should Natsu try to resist"

"Alright then, I'll be heading out now," Gray said and left the guildhall while the rest of the members simply watched him leave

A few moments after Gray left to bring Natsu and Lucy back, Makarov went to the counter and sat down with his legs crossed to each other to ease himself for a while. Until he suddenly recalled something from yesterday and became even more concerned "Oh no!" He exclaims, catching everyone's attention

"What is it, Master?" Mirajane asked

"I forgot to tell Gray something important," Makarov said, lowered his head a little "The S-Class quest, Natsu stole..."

Everyone waited for Makarov to finished his sentence. What comes next shocks them completely

"Was reserved for Auberon and Iris" Makarov finished, and everyone widens their eyes by this

"WHAT?!" Everyone excluding Laxus while Mirajane simply gasped at this

"Natsu stole Auberon and Iris' S-Class Quest!" Cana exclaimed

"That's crazy?!" Laki exclaimed

"They must have some kind of death wish for something like that!" Alzack and Bisca exclaimed in unison. Soon everyone else in the guild started muttering about it while Makarov grumbled to himself about this sudden realization

However, Everyone stopped muttering when Laxus started chuckling as loud as he can

"So Natsu stole the brats' S-Class Quest?" Laxus said, with a smug look "Now those two are certainly not coming back here alive, That's for sure"

Laxus laughed while everyone including Makarov glared at him since he had taken it too far than before. But a part of them says, he was right about what he said. For Auberon and Iris aren't going to be too happy once they find out someone stole their S-Class Quest

"Laxus, Don't you have better things to do?" Mirajane asked, glaring at him

"Whatever, I'm outta anyway," Laxus said, disappearing in a flash of lightning-like before

But at that very moment, The doors of the guildhall started to open and everyone turns their attention to the people entering the guild. But widens their eyes as they as Auberon and Iris standing outside

"Hey, Master!" Iris said, cheerfully as the two approached Makarov.

Auberon shifted his eyes left and right as he notices that his guildmates were acting concerned when they saw the two of them. But once the two were already near Makarov. Iris stood up straight with her hands behind her back and smiled at the Master while Auberon stood beside her

"We're here to get the job request now," Iris said

Makarov grumbles and Iris was confused by this.

"Is there something wrong, Master?" Iris asked, tilting her head to the right

"Just that, I'm afraid you won't be able to take the job request, you kids," Makarov said and Auberon was confused as Iris was.

'What do you mean, Master?'Auberon asked, with his hands inside his coat pockets

"Unfortunately..." The two waited for him to finish, Then he spoke up to them "Natsu, Lucy, and Happy stole the S-Class quest you reserved last night"

The two were silent for a moment... Until Iris was the first one to speak up

"THEY WHAT?!" Iris shouted, "THEY STOLE OUR S-CLASS QUEST!"

"Am I afraid so," Makarov said, nodding to them a little and Makarov began explaining to them about everything that occurred before they stole the quest. And it turned out, Natsu ordered Happy to steal their S-Class Quest from the Second Floor and convinced Lucy to join up with them. Makarov also sent Gray to bring Natsu and Lucy back before they could head to Galuna Island. But unfortunately, He hasn't come back after to guild just yet

Iris was angry and concern about the three. Angry, because Natsu stubborn enough to steal their S-Class quest that will probably put their lives at risk, Concerned, She cares about her guildmates even if it's someone as stubborn as Natsu

As for Auberon... He wasn't too keen on the whole situation. He started clenching his fists and made a furious look on his face while he releases his unintentionally reveals his Magic power. Which made the entire guild except Makarov and Iris to feel sudden chills on their spines

"Auberon, Calm down" Iris ordered, and waited for him to the response. And that he did as he started to calm down and conceals his Magic within him

'When I get my hands on Natsu,' Auberon said, 'I swear I'll wring his neck for doing something this stubborn'

"You know, You could still catch up to them," Makarov said, "Since they've been gone for a while, Maybe they haven't reached the Island just yet"

The two remained silent and looked at each other for a moment. After that, they nodded at each other and turned back to Makarov

'When is Erza coming back?'Auberon asked

"Why do you ask?" Makarov asked

'Because she's the only one who can reason with him' Auberon replied

"Hmm..." Makarov hummed in thought, "She might come back soon, but I'll contact her and explain to her about everything that had happened"

'Thank you, Master' Auberon said, bowing his head to him and he approached towards the nearest table while Iris simply followed suit

The two waited for several minutes for Erza to return from her Job request. And once she returned to the guild, She wasn't too happy when Makarov explained to her about Natsu stealing an S-Class Quest from the second floor

"I've returned, Master," Erza said, "Where are Auberon and Iris?"

'We're right here, Erza' Auberon said in her mind, which caught her attention as she turned to the two

"Good, Then I guess we should get going?" Erza asked and Auberon nodded

'The faster, the better' Auberon said and the three of them headed out to Galuna Island. Where hopefully, Natsu and the others are since Gray hasn't come back from the guild and Makarov assumed he joined up with Natsu

Several Hours Later...

Auberon, Iris, and Erza just boarded a nearby pirate ship and the crew wasn't too happy with their sudden appearance. But Erza single-handedly defeated the pirates and convinced the captain to set a course to Galuna Island despite rumors that circulated on the island

As for Auberon and Iris, The two were sitting down by the main pole mast as they observe Erza standing next to the Captain

"Uh, Why do you three want to the go to Galuna Island," The Captain asked Erza, "That Island is scary"

"Just shut up and steer," Erza ordered

"If you drop us off somewhere, You three can have the boat. Please! I'm begging you, lady. That island is cursed and anyone who steps foot on it will turn into a demon" The Captain begged, but Erza and the other two were unfazed by these rumors

"Then we will take that chance," Erza said, while the Captain turned to Iris and Auberon. Who simply nodded their heads with agreement

"But! Why do you have to go there?!" The Captain asked

"Because when rules are broken, The guilty must be punished and that is all I can tell you" Erza replied, strictly

The pirates including the captain were in awe by Erza's strict personality and her appearance while Iris and Auberon sweat dropped on the pirates' reaction

"Man, They're really digging in on her. Huh?" Iris commented,

'Tell me about it...' Auberon commented, telepathically

After a few short moments. The pirate ship has arrived on Galuna Island. Erza ordered the pirates to stay put since they're also a way back to Hargeon and they all agreed to her order with no hesitation whatsoever. After, Erza along with Auberon and Iris sets foot on the island and scanned their surroundings

'I can sense something not too far away from here' Auberon said to the two

"Where?" Erza asked,

'North West from here...' Auberon said, pointing at the direction of the source

"Then that's where we're going," Erza declared and Iris nodded alongside her. And all three of them headed off to the direction of the source.

A few minutes later, they heard a scream and saw a huge rat pouncing on a girl. But Erza interferes the giant rat with a single swipe of her sword, knocking it out in a single attack

Auberon and Iris walk up Erza and they both saw Lucy, who was relieved when she saw Erza. But she suddenly realized Erza was glaring at her since She along with Natsu and Happy stole an S-Class Quest without permission

"Hey, Auberon. Isn't that?" Iris whisper to him

'It's Lucy, The girl we met yesterday' Auberon said

"Lucy, I assume you know why I am here. Do you know?" Erza said with a serious tone in her voice

"T-To take us back?" Lucy said, very nervously "Promise you won't hurt me?"

Iris somehow felt pity for Lucy since she's going to be punished once they go back to the guild. Auberon, however, simply stared at her for a moment then sighed at that

"Hey, I've been looking for you!" A child-like voice said When Auberon and Iris turned to the direction of the voice. They saw Happy flying towards Lucy and Erza "I'm glad you're okay, I was wor-"

Happy suddenly stiffen when he saw Erza standing in front of Erza. A few seconds later, He tried to make a run for it by flying as far as he could. But Auberon sighs at his feeble attempt

'Sis, Can you catch him?' Auberon asked

"Okay," Iris said, stretches her arm towards Happy and Magic circle appears at the palm of her hand. "Light Magic: Heaven's Lariat!"

After casting her spell. The magic circle creates a single line of light resembling a rope-like form and wraps around Happy's tail. Once he was caught Iris pulls Happy closer to her and grabs him by the tail, holding him upside down.

After that, Auberon and Iris went beside Erza and faced Lucy as well. This, in turn, caused Lucy to feel more nervous than ever due to Auberon and Iris standing alongside Erza and assumed Makarov sent them as well to force them to go back

"Now where is Natsu?" Erza strictly asked,

"Listen, I'm sorry without permission. But there some awful things on this island," Lucy said, trying to reason with them. But none of them weren't reacting to what she was saying to them "There this guy and his minions who are trying to revive this frozen demon. And the magic spell they're using is causing the village to suffering. We just thought that if we work together, we might be able to help them"

"None of that is my concern," Erza replied with seriously, while Auberon and Iris stayed silent for a moment

"Please, Erza! Let us finish this job! We can't leave things this way" Lucy demanded, But Erza raises her sword toward her and gave deathly glare at her

"I don't think you understand, The three of you betrayed Master Makarov" Erza stated "You'll be lucky if walk away with your lives"

'Okay, now I'm scared'

'Erza' Lucy heard Auberon talking telepathically and she saw him staring at Erza. While the red-haired knight glances at him 'Put down the sword'

Erza stared at Auberon for a moment and saw how serious he was. She sighs then puts down the sword, much to Lucy's relief

'Lucy' Auberon called out ' I will hear you out on the things that happened on this island. Don't think I'll just let you do as you please on this quest, After all...'

Lucy stared at him for a moment until he finally spoke to her 'You and Natsu stole the S-Class Quest, I reserved for Iris and myself'

Lucy gaped at this and she began regretting joining with Natsu on the S-Class Quest. Because Natsu stole an S-Class Quest from a two S-Class Wizards of Fairy Tail. Happy gaped as well, Having woken up after his capture.

After that, Erza ties up Lucy and Happy while the two explained the events that happened after the four of them arrived on the island. Along the way, they encountered the villagers that lived on the island who were said to have been cursed on the island.

They also found Gray, who's currently unconscious at the moment and covered with several bruises all over his body. So they decided to take a moment's rest inside one of the tents that were provided by the villagers and waited for Gray to regain consciousness.
