Kanji's POV

I groaned as I woke up from the long night we had before. Erza was still asleep, her head lying on my chest. Neither of us had clothes on. I blushed thinking back to the night before.

"Hmm…" Erza mumbled and opened her eyes "Good Morning."

Erza leaned up and kissed me.

"Good Morning Mrs. Dreyar." I smiled.

Erza brushed her bangs out of her eyes before leaning up to kiss me again. The two of us shared a long kiss before we broke apart due to a knock at the front door.

"Maybe if we wait." I said kissing her neck "They'll just go away.

"Go answer it." Erza whispered "Besides we have to get up soon if we want to catch our train."

I sighed and got out of bed. I threw on some clothes to answer the door.

There was another knock.

"I'm coming!" I yelled going down the stairs.

I got to the door and unlocked it.

"Hello?"

"Is Millianna here?" Kagura asked me.

"No." I told her "Wasn't she staying with you at Lucy and Michelle's?"

"She never came back last night." Kagura explained.

"Millianna didn't get home?" Erza said coming into the room wearing a bathrobe.

"No she didn't." Kagura said "Lucy said that she didn't leave before I got up and now I don't know where she is."

"Give me a moment and I'll help you look." Erza said.

"No you guys have to go. I can find her by myself."

"It's not a big deal for us to get there late." I told her.

"I'll be fine you two go have fun." She said "I'll see you next week when you get home."

"I'll have the Communication Lacrima with me so call if there's an emergency." Erza called out to her.

I closed the door and went to start packing the last of our things for the honeymoon. Erza was strangely quiet.

"I'm sure she's fine." I told Erza "Maybe she went home with someone else. Don't let it bother you."

"I know…" She shrugged "I'm just a little worried."


Michelle's POV

I was helping Mira clean up the guild; it was pretty messy after the party yesterday, when Kagura came in.

"Hello." Mira smiled.

"Hi." I added in my own greeting.

"Is Millianna here?"

"No." We both said.

"Now that I think about it I didn't see her in the apartment last night." I pointed out "How odd."

"She's not here either." Kagura mumbled "Where could she have gone?"

"Well I'm all done cleaning here." I told her "I'll help you look around town."

"You don't have to."

"It's fine." I said putting the broom away "Mira will you keep your eye open here?"

"Of course, good luck." She smiled.

I followed Kagura out of the guild. She told me where she had already looked. We decided the best place to start looking would main street. We checked inside a few shops but no one had seen any one matching Millianna's description.

Kagura and I were checking with a man at a stall when I felt a strange sensation, so odd it made me shiver.

"Something wrong?" Kagura asked me.

"I feel like I'm being watched." I told her looking down an alley

This feels familiar…

"I'm just over thinking it." I told her brushing it off.

After checking all leads on Main Street we went towards the docks to see if perhaps Millianna had gone home early without telling anyone. Kagura was questioning a man when I had that peculiar feeling again.

I left the conversation and started to walk down some of the abandoned back streets.

"Who's there?" I called out.

There was a stumbling noise and it sounded like a box feel over. I ran down the alley to try and catch the person. I followed the sound of running footsteps. I rounded a corner and saw the tail of a coat disappear around a building.

"Get back here!" I yelled.

Did this person kidnap Millianna and are they after me?

I followed the figure. I could tell it was a man but he was very fast, he was starting to pull away and I was doing my best to keep up.

"Vine Snare!"

I tripped him up and made him stumbled to the ground.

"Shit…"

He struggled on the floor but he couldn't get away from me. He seemed to have a clear destination, the nearby dead end.

I got to the man and flipped him over, I was stunned at what I saw.

"I know you."

He just grumbled.

"You're that guy from Carbuncle…the one I fought in the sewer."

I removed my vines from around his ankle allowing him to stand. He wasn't wearing his mask and his hair looked messy…his face was still nice though.

I feel all funny…

"What are you doing here Chase?" I asked him.

"None of your business." He told me starting to walk away.

"Did I say you could leave?" I told him.

He laughed "Since when are you the boss of me?"

I tapped my foot "I'm not in the mood for games. Where is Millianna?"

I gave me a look of confusion "Who?"

"The catgirl you kidnapped, isn't that what Carbuncle does?"

"I'm not with them…Dyst and the others are in jail for what happened in Veronica." He said "And I have no clue who Millianna is or where she might be."

Another dead end.

"Well then what were you doing back here and why did you run?" I asked.

"Like I said before, that's none of your business." He said fading into the shadows.

"What a strange man?" I thought out loud.

I headed back out to the main road to find Kagura so she didn't worry.

"Where did you go running off to?" she asked me.

"Nothing just another dead end, literally." I told her "Did you have any luck?"

"Someone said they saw Millianna walk by last night and go into a nearby house with and unidentifiable figure." Kagura said "I was just about to head there."

"Let's go then."

We crossed a few blocks, passing by some people from the guild. We also saw Sabertooth, Diana was acting a little strange, oddly giddy. We walked away and found the house Kagura said Millianna was rumored to be in. So, we headed up the steps and knocked on the door.

The door opened. Millianna had answered the door, she was only wearing a very loose t-shirt.

"Meow…Oh hey." Millianna said rubbing her eyes.

"You're okay." Kagura said hugging her "I was so worried."

Kagura explained that she had thought Millianna had been kidnapped or worse.

"Well I told you I was leaving." She said "You were probably so drunk you forgot."

"I was not…" Kagura pouted.

"Well I said I was coming back here." Millianna shrugged.

"Umm where exactly is here?" I asked.

"Ohh…well…Ummm…" Millianna just blushed as looked at the ground "Oh would you look at the time I gotta go."

She then proceeded to slam the door in our faces. Kagura pounded on the door screaming for Millianna to open it.

I grabbed her shoulder and shook my head "Let's just go back to the guild."

On our way back to Fairy Tail we passed by Kanji and Erza who were going to board the train to Akane resort for their honeymoon. They were happy to hear everything was okay with Millianna. After that Kagura and I headed back to the guild and took a seat at the bar and told Mira what had happened.

"A house down by the docks…" she mumbled "The only person in the guild who lives over there is…"

Mira began to giggle to herself "I never thought about them being together…"

"What's so funny?" I asked.

"Yeah who lives there?" Kagura said "Let me know so I can gut them."

"Oh did you find Millianna?" Lucy asked walking up.

"Yeah they found her." Mira said still giggling under her breath.

"Where?"

Mira laughed even harder "At Bickslow's house."

"What?!" we all yelled "Bickslow?"

"Well they did dance together back at the Banquet after the Magic Games." Mira said "It's not unexpected…"

"Did he use those brain control powers of his to take advantage of her?" Lucy asked.

"Oh my." I covered my mouth "How scandalous."

"What has he done to her?!" Kagura yelled running out of the guild.

"That was odd?" I said.

"So anything interesting happen when you were out looking for Millianna?" Mira asked me.

"No not really…well I did run across someone strange." I said "That man from Carbuncle, Chase."

Mira and Lucy both gave me a look "What was he doing here?"

"He wouldn't say." I told them "He did act odd though. I could have sworn he was following me before I confronted him."

"Are you sure everything is alright Michelle?" Lucy asked me "He didn't try and hurt you did he? Has he been stalking you?"

I shook my head "No this was the first time I've seen him since Veronica a few weeks ago…but when I did something strange happened."

"What?"

"Well I got this weird feeling…Like I was so excited that I was going to be sick. I've never felt anything like it before…it was odd I wonder if I'm sick or something."

Mira just hummed to herself.

"What?" I asked her "do you know what's wrong with me?"

Mira just polished a mug "I know-actually it's nothing."

"Mira?" Lucy gave her a questioning look.

"Michelle is just fine Lucy." She said "Nothing that wouldn't have happened eventually…"

"Is something wrong with me?" I asked her.

"Nope." Mira smiled "You're perfectly normal."

She's hiding something…but what was that sensation…
