On with the story
The next day came as every student went out for the fieldtrip
Natsu was with Hisui and a couple of policemen as they went around the area
"my! This is so adorable!" Hisui said as they were near a store that was selling dolls and she had in her hands an adorable white mouse doll "and this one too!"
Hisui started looking around the variety of animal dolls while Natsu just stands by, watching her with the policemen
"this is getting tiring for me" Natsu thought before he takes out his lacrima phone as he got a notification of a message. Reading it, before typing back a message, he pocketed his phone and Natsu created a copy of himself while Hisui was looking at the dolls
"stay with her" Natsu told his copy who nodded as the original went away
Meanwhile at another part of the town
Éclair was looking at her lacrima phone with a smile before she pocketed it
She and the others were by a clothing store, everyone else were checking them out while she was just standing by near the entrance
"Éclair, what do you think of these two?" Lucy asked while holding two short dresses as one was red and the other yellow
"um" Éclair think and was about to answer when Natsu came in
"the yellow one suits yourself better but the red one suits Éclair better" Natsu said as Éclair turns and got a kiss on the forehead by him "yo"
"that was fast" Éclair said as she hugs Natsu who hugs her back before separating
"I texted you, didn't i?" Natsu said holding his lacrima phone as the message he received was from Éclair who asked him if he could come to the clothe store that they were in right now and he replied that he would be there quick "I always keep my word"
Éclair smiled before hugging Natsu again, the man caressing her back and gives her a kiss on the head
Everyone soon realized Natsu was with them as they started hogging him while going around town
At the moment now, everyone stopped by a store that was selling dessert, and drinks
They sat by a long bench as they ate their dessert
"aaah" Éclair said while holding a slice of cake and was feeding a piece to Natsu who opened his mouth and ate it "is it good?"
"yeah, sweet and sour at the same time" Natsu said before Éclair wiped a small amount of cream around his lips and licks it
"you got something there" Éclair said giggling as Natsu smiled in return
Mira and the others had an ominous aura around them as Éclair was the most strongest love adversary that they have ever seen.
"what a strong opponent she is!" "I wanted to feed Master!" "such cunningness and such innocent!" they thought before seeing Ikaruga sitting beside Natsu
"would you like to taste their Lunar Cake?" Ikaruga said while holding a small cake that was in the shape of a crescent moon "they are quite delicious"
"Really?" Natsu asked before taking a bite and chewed it "sweet, yet minty"
"even Ikaruga!?" "I knew that she was cunning but she is very cunning!" "I wanted to do it too!"
"try their Lunar Cola" Ultear said going near Natsu and holds a bottle with a straw in it "it's refreshing like sake"
"ULTEAR?!" sparks of rivalry started to fly around them as Éclair, Ikaruga, and Ultear are fearful opponents for them
"thanks" Natsu said taking a few sips before hearing his lacrima phone ringing
He picks it up as the caller was Dan
"what is it?" Natsu asked as he hears Dan talking at the other end "I know…I know….nighttime?...oh yeah…..i got it….how much time?...5 hours, huh?...alright"
Ending the call, a copy of Natsu appeared and walked away
"what's wrong?" Cana asked seeing the copy walking away
"Dan and the others need some help, so I'm just sending a copy of mine away to help" Natsu replied as Éclair feeds him another piece of cake "there's about 5 hours left before the concert starts..so I better spend it wisely"
"then, can we still go to the Lunaria Shrine? I heard that in Luminia town that if a couple goes there and takes a fortune together, their fates are sealed together" Éclair asked as the girls gawked a bit
"taking a fortune..that doesn't sound so bad" Natsu said rubbing his chin a bit before smiling "let's go then"
"me too!" "I want to go too!" "let's go too!" Erza and the others exclaimed as Natsu looks at them and sigh
"how long are you three going to keep this up?" Natsu asked sighing again while taking a glance at them "this is getting old way too quick"
"eh?" Mira, Erza, and Kamika said in unison
"if you want some time with me, you can just ask. If you want to go somewhere with me just ask" Natsu said "even Kagura knew what to do"
The three girls looks at Kagura who was spoonfeeding pudding to a Natsu copy
"start being more mature" Natsu said as he stands up and three copies of him appeared and took Ultear, Ikaruga, and Cana's hands "be more conceive in thinking, that's what a mage is"
More copies of him appeared near the three girls as they hold their hands out to them
Soon everyone went their own direction to where they wanted to go, some went to the shrine, some went to the shopping street, and some went sightseeing
Meanwhile
Hisui was in a clothing store with a copy of Natsu who just accompanied her while the policemen were outside
"all of these clothes are adorable!" Hisui said as she looks at each one with amazement
"I see" Natsu replied before he got sight of something flashing near the wall
His eyes glowed red as he saw someone having a sniper gun and was pointing it at the window where it had sight on Hisui
"assasins?" Natsu thought as he snapped a finger and a copy of him appeared behind the assassin before taking him down "I guess it's to be expected when the princess of the country is here"
"Natsu-sama! Which one do you think fits better?" Hisui asked while holding two red dresses as one is nearly magenta and the other scarlet
"the right one" Natsu replied as Hisui smiled and went to the changing room
Natsu keeps an eye as he saw more assassins coming nearby
"this is going to be a taxing day" Natsu thought as his eyes glowed black
At the Lunaria Shrine
Natsu and Éclair were in front of the shrine as they did a prayer together before clapping their hands once and move aside to let other people pray to the shrine
"what did you wish for, Natsu?" Éclair asked while hugging Natsu's arm
"if I told you then it won't come true, now would it?" Natsu replied with a smile
"just a whisper" Éclair said pouting a bit as Natsu chuckled
"well then" Natsu said as he leans close to her ear and whispered "I wished that I would have a happy family with the girls I love, especially my number one girl, Éclair"
Éclair blushed a bit as she started imagining having kids with Natsu
Natsu chuckled more to see her reaction
They then went to the fortune slots where people randomly picked folded fortune paper and there were Mira, Erza, Kagura, and Kamika with their copy of Natsus
"alright! good luck in this year to come!" Mira said grinning as she got a good luck fortune
"medium luck, but you shall find many thoughts to be lost things in places you did not check" Kamika said as she reads her fortune paper "lost things…"
"bad luck, you shall be receiving mind breaking results of the next month, be cautious in eating" Erza said with a pale face as the fortune paper was telling her that she'll get fat next month
"looks like you guys didn't get any great luck, now did you?" Mira said grinning as her fortune paper was the best as the moment, Mira turns to Kagura who was blushing while reading her fortune paper "what did you get, Kagura?"
"g-great luck..you shall r-receive endless amount of love..from your l-lover who shall g-give you great offsprings" Kagura read out as Mira gawked
"give me this!" Mira exclaimed grabbing the fortune paper and reads it with Erza and Kamika who gawked in reading it "you're kidding me, right!?"
"great offsprings?!" "endless amount of love from lover!?" Erza and Kamika exclaimed as Kagura got the best luck of them all
Before long the three got knocks on their head by three copies of Natsu
"be quiet, we're at a shrine" they said
Natsu and Éclair went to take their fortune as they randomly choose one
"let's see" Éclair said as she opens her fortune and reads it "lovely luck, you shall receive love and great fortune to the day of the next spring, be cautious in taking big actions"
"nice fortune" Natsu said as he opens his and reads it, at the moment he reads it, Natsu's eyes squinted a bit
"what is it?" Éclair asked as Natsu showed her his fortune paper
"worst luck, in this year, you shall face hardships from many areas, may it be love, life, and death itself" Éclair read out before looking at Natsu who just sighs
"let's not think about it too much, it's just fortune paper" Kagura said, hearing the fortune
"yeah," Natsu said as he looks at his fortune paper "just a fortune paper"
Somewhere in the shadows
Zancrow and Rustyrose were walking around before they meet up with 3 figures covered in shadows
"so? most of the gangs are here, huh?" Zancrow asked with a grin
"the Devil's heart is beating once again" someone spoke out "and it craves blood"
That's a wrap!
Bye bye
