Seven year old Nashi would not call having to spend a day with Ur Fullbuster a wonderful day to be had. In fact she would call it a day in hell (and get a light smack on her shoulder for her language while her Dad would get the real grief from it), but then a day with both her Mum and Dad, her Uncle Gray and Auntie Juvia, in the sunshine, with really good food, and lots of games was actually really fun.

No matter how annoying stupid icy Ur was.

However, the cheerful, happy day, instantly got ruined when her Dad caught a whiff of something, stood up quickly, and then inhaled sharply. "I can smell him," he growled angrily.

Nashi blinked up at her father. "Smell who, Dad?" she asked.

"The arsehole who got awa- ah!" her Dad was interrupted by her Mum smacking him really hard in the shoulder. "What the hell Luce?!" he demanded.

All it got him was another smack. "What have I told you about using that language in front of Nashi?!" her Mum shouted furiously.

"What arsehole, Dad?" Nashi pressed.

She was determined to find out what was going on because she was getting sick and tired of being left out on missions that were actually exciting. Her parents had no problem taking her to one that involves cleaning or looking for a lost object but if there was a whiff of danger Nashi got dumped on whichever of her many aunts and uncles that were free.

Nashi's use of a bad word made her Mum move to smack her dad again but this time her father cleverly, a very rare moment it should be cherished because Nashi cannot tell you how many times her Dad makes the same mistakes, grabbed her mother's hand and pressed a kiss on it which made her Mum go all melty.

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! Parents.

"The arsehole," Her Dad grinned as her mother had given up on his language (for now, Nashi gives it ten minutes tops), "is the leader of the bandits me and your Mum fought yesterday. The git had sprayed us with some weird stuff and did a runner when we were distracted, and I'm certain I just caught a whiff of him now."

"It doesn't matter if you did or not," her Mum glowered at him, "because we're having a family picnic with no danger involved, right Natsu?" she finished with a growl.

"Oh come on, Luce!" her Dad pouted. "Nashi will be safe, not only has she got us but Gray and Juvia are here."

"Yeah," Uncle Gray butted in, "I can do what this moron couldn't do and actually catch the arsehole."

"What was that?!"

"You heard me!"

"Why you little-"

"Hem, hem," Nashi's mother interrupted coolly, "we are not going after him. It's unfair to expect Gray and Juvia to help, they have their own children to worry about."

Ur rolled his eyes at that while his adorable, silent, two year old sister just blinked. "Juvia agrees with Lucy-san," Aunt Juvia said, "Juvia would also like to remind Gray-sama and Natsu-san that they are supposed to be setting an example in front of the children."

"Oh," Nashi's Dad said dumbly, "yeah, I forgot about that. Gray!" he yelled cheerfully. "Best friend!"

"Natsu!" Uncle Gray replied with equal false cheer. "My bestest best friend!"

Nashi and Ur rolled their eyes simultaneously as their fathers pretended to hug each other. They were seven not idiots, they knew their fathers bickered and fought just as much as they did.

"Come on Juvia," Uncle Gray said pleadingly, "let's catch this guy once and for all. I don't want our children to encounter him when they're out playing."

"Oh Gray-sama!" Aunt Juvia cooed. "How could Juvia say no? Juvia wishes to keep her babies safe as well."

Nashi was fairly certain she heard her mother curse then, not that she would ever admit to it. "Alright then!" her mother threw her hands up in the air. "I'm obviously outnumbered but if a single hair on Nashi gets harmed, you'll be sleeping on the sofa till our grandchildren are eighteen!"

"Nothing's going to happen," Nashi's Dad said a little too confidently. "Now let's get this arsehole once and for all! Yosh!" and that was when her Dad did the most embarrassing thing Nashi had ever seen in her short seven years…..

He immediately dropped to the ground onto his hands and knees and began to sniff the dirt.

"Ha!" Ur crowed. "Your Dad acts like a dog."

Nashi flushed with embarrassment "Yeah!" she snapped furiously. "Well at least he's not naked! Unlike your Dad!"

Uncle Gray frowned and then his eyes bulged out of their sockets as he realised he had lost all his clothes at some point. "Crap!" he swore.

"Oh man!" Ur whined. "Come on Dad!" he moaned. "Can't you even try to be less embarrassing?"

"So my Dad might act like a dog," Nashi smirked, "but at least he's not a naked pervert!"

"Yeah!" Ur shouted, he looked a little flustered, "well at least my Dad will be cool with a criminal record and not just some weirdo that acts like a dog."

"I would rather have a dog for a Dad than a naked one!"

"Naked or not, your Dad is more embarrassing!"

"Nuh-huh!" Nashi shook her head. "Your Dad is more embarrassing."

"No, your Dad is!"

At this point Nashi's nose was now squashed against Ur's ugly pointy one and she could definitely smell the ham and cheese sandwiches on his breath. She had one fist held up, small flames dancing upon it, ready to punch the living daylights out of him, while his own fist was glowing a menacingly blue light which suggested he was going to make an ice sword or something.

They blinked, his stormy blue eyes and her brown ones, in unison as they realised they had been fighting and got to this point without any interruptions from their mothers (worst comes to worst neither Nashi's Mum or Ur's Mum had a problem with restraining them and carrying them off to the 'naughty corner' on opposite sides of a room) or without any encouragement from their fathers.

Hesitatingly, they turned to look at their parents and instantly sweat-dropped at the sight.

Poor Tulia had been abandoned on the picnic blanket as Aunt Juvia had to restrain Uncle Gray (and seemed to be enjoying a bit too much) and Nashi's Mum was restraining Nashi's Dad. The pair of them were yelling all sorts at one another, their faces flushed and angry, as they tried to strangle one another.

A passer-by stopped, looked worried for a bout thirty seconds, before they then took their camera out and started to take pictures.

Another one came by and joined in and it was then they heard loud and clear;

"It's Gray Fullbuster and Natsu Dragneel! I heard they're always this funny!"

It was then when Nashi and Ur were in agreement that both their fathers were an embarrassment and they should leave before the humiliation kills them.

(Quite a crowd of fans were now gathering. Somehow….)

And no, no matter how many times Nashi's mother will tell you, they did not run hand in hand to escape their parents.

Ur was dragging her because he was a git.

That was all.

There was no hand holding to be seen.

Nuh-uh.

No way.

(By the way has she mentioned that her mother was just as embarrassing as her father?)
