It's weird to imagine this week being almost over... but here's Day 6! :)

Finally we've landed in Pelerno. The minute we're off the ship however, the journey continues. Kaleb had called his assistant Thane and had him teleport us to the White Sea Guild so so he could grab his clothes that he would need. Then from there teleported is to the Pradesh house where there was a line of people waiting for us.

I stood behind everyone as I watched them all interact with the rest of the Pradesh family. Looking at them all it's hard to believe they are even human, they're all so beautiful. And tall. 'I feel like a midget here compared to everyone else.' I thought silently and smiled at the reunion.

"Dad, this is one Lucy Heartfilia. She's our celestial spirit mage back at Fairy Tail." Bickslow introduced me and I waved at who I now knew was the Pradesh patriarch. "Cosplayer, this is my dad that I told you about." The seith mage sent a smile towards me knowing I was trying not to freak out being in front of the Arman Pradesh.

From there I was introduced to the rest of the family and was immediately enveloped in warmth and hugs. Everything I never got as a child. This was one lucky family. I smiled at everyone and could feel a couple of eyes on me. "It's really nice to meet you all!"

I clasped my hands in front of me and talked with a few of the other family members when I felt a sudden presence behind me, and I tensed up feeling something slithering it's way up my leg. 'Kaleb? Please tell me you can still hear me.' I ask silently staring over at the tallest blonde here.

'Yes I can still hear you. What's wrong?' Kaleb looks at me worriedly and I look down to my legs to see if there's anything there.

'There is something on my leg. I don't know what it is. It feels weird and cold and I don't appreciate it at all.'

Kaleb audibly sighs. 'That would be our youngest sibling Vander. Probably should've told you what all of our magics are when we made introductions. Vander is a shadowquip mage. He can literally control the shadows and form them into anything. So what you have on your leg right now, is one of his shadows. Try going into a meditative state real quick and release some of your magic. The light from that should help to keep him in control and off you.'

I try to do as Kaleb says and not even a minute later the youngest Pradesh makes a hissing sound and scowls over at Kaleb. "What was that for Kaleb? Don't even try to tell me it wasn't you who taught her how to do that!" Vander yelled catching the eyes of everyone else.

"Keep your shadows to yourself next time then Van. She's not Boscan and you scared her." It was kinda funny watching Kaleb reprimand his younger brother. Not that I would tell anyone that but he's right it did scare me. I've been kidnapped enough times now to where it's almost a sixth sense of sorts whenever something is going to go wrong.

'I'm scared to ask how many times you've been kidnapped if you have a sixth sense now mi Estrella. Should I be worried?' I looked back over at Kaleb to see him still talking to Vander and now Arman as well. Amazing how he can hold two conversations at the same time about two completely different subjects. 'That would be the best part about my magic.'

I giggled and got a couple of looks from the thunder legion and a few knowing looks from the Pradesh family. 'It really is amazing. I'm almost jealous. But no, you don't have to worry. I have a feeling this is going to be an easy mission. There shouldn't be any reason for me to go and get kidnapped. But then again, Dark Guilds are weird. There was one time where I ended up getting trapped inside of a flying metal fish. That makes the cherry on top of the cake for weird dark guild plans to this day.'

'You truly are fascinating you know that Lucy?' I knew. I knew especially when he said my actual name instead of the new nickname he had give me. Before I could ask what the nickname meant though I was brought back to the actual conversation at hand with Laxus standing in front of me.

"I'm sorry, I must have spaced out Laxus. What were you saying?" I ask, smiling brightly up at him to show him everything was okay now.

He still looks at me worriedly and places a hand on my shoulder. "I was saying we should probably head out. We can stop back by here again at another time. But we are still on a mission." Oops, I may have forgotten about that during the little bit of time we spent here at the Pradesh estate.

My face turns a light shade of red in embarrassment. "Then I guess we should get going then. How are we getting there?" I look out of the corner of my eye to look at Kaleb and smile when I see him looking back at me. Maybe it wouldn't be too bad to indulge a little bit after this mission, I smile softly and hear the cough knowing he was able to hear me. "Airship or teleporting again?"

I watch Laxus look over his shoulder to look at Kaleb before he turns his gaze back to me. "I was going to say teleport there, but since we don't know exactly what we're going into it'd be best to save our magical energy. So we're going to take the airship there."

"Speaking of airships, what did you think of the new add on's to the system Laxus?" Arman walked over to us and smiled softly at me, placing a gentle hand on my shoulder. "I made sure to tell them to open the system up to all dragon slayers this way the trips you all will soon be taking here will be smoother for you."

"I had never felt so relaxed on an airship before Arman. Thank you for that." Laxus smirked at the older man before looking back down at me.

I stare back up at him and then shake my head before I look over at Arman and smile. "Thank you for the warm hospitality Mr.Pradesh. We probably really should be heading out so that we can finish this mission as soon as possible."

"Heavens, Lucy. Please just call me Arman. I feel way older than I actually am if you call me that." I giggled at the Pradesh patriarchs face as he continued. "You are welcome here anytime you wish. Especially since it looks like at least two of my boys have taken an interest in you." He gave me a knowing look and I'm almost positive my face was the color of a tomato.

"Th-thank you Arman. I'll try to visit again whenever I'm able to." I say as politely as I can after that embarrassing statement.

'Don't mind him Lucy, he's always trying to find ways to get one of with somebody this way he can have grandkids to spoil.' Kaleb walked over to us once he was finished with the conversation with his siblings. "Dad, please don't scare her off if you actually want her to come back." I send a grateful look towards him and he smiles softly down at me.

"That was not my intention Kaleb." Arman pouted and crossed his arms over his chest. "It would just be nice if one of my boys was able to be promised to such a lovely young lady such as Lucy. Especially when I can easily see the chemistry happening."

The two Pradesh men got quiet and just stared at each other, leaving me to believe that they were having a silent conversation. "Okay then, we should probably start making our way to the ship port so we can get to Ridge Town as soon as possible. Especially if you all want me to visit here again." I looked straight to Arman when I said that and he smiled widely.

"Excellent idea Lucy! We'll give you all a ride there so that you don-"

"That's quite alright dad, I'll have Thane teleport us there so that we don't end up missing the flight." Kaleb interrupted his father and I gave him a curious glance and he shook his head. 'You don't want to know what's going through his head right now. Trust me.' I can only nod in affirmation at this as our group gathers around Thane one last time before we all disappear from the eyes of the Pradesh family. When I open my eyes the next time we are standing back at the airship port.

I place my hands on my cheeks and think back to what Arman had said before. He thought I was lovely, I giggle. "Did that teleport break you Cosplayer?" Bickslow looks at me worriedly and I shake my head.

"No, just thinking about some things." I smile sheepishly at him as I start walking towards the port where our ship is.

"Blondie, we still have to pay for tickets." I hear Laxus yell to me and I stop walking. I'm all sorts of spacey today aren't I? I sigh then look back over my shoulder to see him smirking at me.

"Take that smug smirk off your face right now Lightning Bolt." I glare at him and he chuckles. "Let's go get the tickets so that we can board. I feel like I need a damn nap now." I mumble as Laxus catches up to me before we walk to the ticket counter to pay for tickets.

After paying for the tickets the woman holds Laxus back and I look over curiously to see what's happening. She was a beautiful brunette and a little bit taller than myself. "Excuse me, but are you her Promised?" Laxus shakes his head no with a knowing smirk and I roll my eyes. Good grief. The lady smiles up at him and wraps her arms around one of Laxus' own. "Would you perhaps like to share pleasure before your flight then?" Her voice lowers seductively.

"Blondie, take these back to the others. Let them know I'll catch up." He hands me the tickets he was carrying and I shake my head.

"You're blonde to you know Laxus. But don't take too long or you're going to miss the flight." I make my way back to the others and Bickslow sends me a knowing grin.

"Hot brunette at the ticket counter got to him huh?"

"Yep." I say popping the p as we make our way on board. That infernal man is going to end up missing the flight. I can just tell at this point. Bickslow could only laugh while Ever and Freed shook their heads.

'Don't let it bother you to much mi Estrella. He'll make the flight.' I look over at Kaleb and smile softly as we make our way to our own little cabin again. Bickslow immidately saying he was going to the baths again with Ever following closely behind him. Freed decided to stay in the cabin and read his books he had brought with him.

'Kaleb?' He makes a small humming noise to say that he was listening. 'What does that mean? You've been calling me that ever since this morning and I'm not very well versed in the Boscan language. Or the culture for that matter.' I blush slightly as I look up at him, taking a seat on one of the beds in the room.

He chuckles and it sends a slight shiver down my spine as I smile at the sound. 'It means my star. I figured it was fitting due to your magic, however if you don't like it I can stop.'

I shake my head quickly 'No. No, don't stop. I actually like it.' I smile brightly up at him as he stands in front of me and I pat the bed next to me indicating to him that he should sit as well, which he gladly took. He was still taller than me even though we were both sitting.

He smiled back at me then leaned back against the bed. 'As for you not knowing much about our culture, I would be happy to teach you about everything.' He put emphasis on the last word and I could feel my cheeks heating up again.

'I would love that, just maybe save the everything, as you put it, for after this mission.' I give him a smug grin and he openly laughs out at that and smiles at me.

'Deal Mi Estrella. I look forward to being your teacher in all things Boscan. Means I won't have to share you with a sudepeh.' I give him a confused look and then he goes into the details of how at the age of 12 every Boscan starts their sudepeh lessons from learning about pleasure, to the clans of the grass sea and everything else. It was truly amazing to learn about. But I was really looking forward to the Pleasure side of things.

Her thought's truly were fascinating. One minute she's thinking up all these questions to ask about the clans and the monarchy then they take a comple 180 and she's coming up with all these scenarios on the best positions for sex and how they would feel. The best part of it was, in all those scenarios, I was her partner.

I grinned as I lay there looking up at her when I could hear Laxus getting ready to walk in though I sighed. 'We may have to put the rest of this conversation on hold Mi Estrella. That infernal man, as you called him earlier, is about to walk through the door.' I watched her reaction as she sighed and lay back against the bed next to me right as the ship started to take off.

'He cut it really close since I can feel the ship taking off now.' I nod in agreement right as the door opens and I can hear the growl then all the angry thoughts about me laying next to Lucy. Then his brain is thinking of all the possibilities that could have happened to lead to how Lucy and I are laying next to each other.

I sigh softly before turning my head towards Laxus. 'Nothing happened Laxus. Look, Freed is still in the room. Do you really think I would try anything with another person in the room? I know Lucy well enough to know that would make her uncomfortable.' The man huffs then sets his bag down next to Freed.

I turn my head to look over at Lucy and we smile at each other. 'That's one weird kin you've got there mi Cara Stella.' she giggled softly and looks over at Laxus one last time before turning her body completely to face me.

'What's really sad is, he isn't the weirdest one to claim me as kin. I'm kin to all the Dragon Slayers in my guild.' I stare at her wide eyed and she sends little photos of her with each of the dragon slayers back at her guild. I smile at the one of her and little blue haired girl sitting close to each other and smiling brightly. I chuckle at the one of her and a tall black haired man with a shorter blue haired female sitting at a table surrounded by books, then there's one of her and a pink haired male. I can tell there's a lot of meaning from the image of her with him. 'That's Natsu. He's the one who brought me to Fairy Tail.' She smiled at the thought.

So he's the one who invokes the rage that is Scary Lucy most of the time. Interesting to know. 'You seem very close to all of them.' I smile at her as we continue talking about anything and everything that comes to mind. It was truly relaxing until there was a voice over the loud speakers saying that we would be landing in 5 minutes. I sigh and look up at the ceiling. 'Guess we should get up and motivated now huh?'

She nodded her head and I could tell she was sad about it all. But then there was a sudden determination in her eyes. 'We'll have to find a hotel for the night and then set out for the location in the morning.' I nod in agreement as we stand up and I watch as she stretches her arms up above her head, pulling her shirt up and I could see her stomach. It's so toned and creamy, it's beautiful.

When the ship docks we all file off and walk into the town. Lucy walks next to me and I can tell she's avoiding eye contact with the people who live here. I chuckle as I wrap an arm around her shoulder to help ward off anyone looking at her. I hear Laxus growl and send him the message for what I'm doing.

There are a lot of people staring at Lucy and I can tell it's starting to make her uncomfortable. 'Don't worry mi Estrella, let's just make our way to the hotel for the night and we can hide away and do whatever you want.' I purr softly into her head and she looks up and smiles softly.

'Thanks Kaleb.' I hear her thoughts about me possibly being a good cuddle buddy and I hold in my chuckle so as to not embarrass her.

"Here's our hotel for the night. I had Thane call ahead to reserve rooms for all of us so we could have our own space before trekking into the unknown tomorrow." There was a round of okay's before we all walked into the building and I walked up to the receptionist and told her my name under the reservations.

She smiled and I had to fight to roll my eyes at her thoughts. She handed me the room key cards then called back out to me as I turned my head. "I get off in about 30 minutes, and if you aren't promised, would you like to share pleasure?"

I look down at Lucy and she stares back up at me. 'You can if you want to. I don't control your life and we aren't promised.' She sounded almost dejected and I turned my head to look back at the receptionist. "Thank you, but I already have plans for this evening." I smile softly at her before walking away with Lucy.

"You could have gone to share pleasure with her if you wanted to." She whispered softly but I still heard her.

As we get closer to Laxus, I switch back to our mental link 'I could have. But then I wouldn't have gotten to spend time with you for the evening. And that's something I'm greatly looking forward to.' I smile down at her then look back at everyone else to pass out the room keys. "We are all on the third floor. None of the rooms are jointly connected nor are they next to each other, for obvious reasons." I look over at my brother who only smirks smugly at me and sends me a mental image that I did not want to see. I look down at Lucy for a mental confirmation before nodding. "We'll reconvene down here at 8am."

Everyone nods their heads in agreement before dispersing to their rooms for the night, I grab Lucy's arm though and pull her back and wait for everyone to make their way up the stairs. "Would you like to head to my room and we can order room service then watch a movie?" I ask smiling gently down to her.

I watch as her face turns a light shade of red and she nods slowly while smiling. "I would love that Kaleb." I hold out my arm and she grabs it with her hands gently. "So what movie do you want to watch?" I try to prod her brain to see what kinds of movies she into but she placed the barriers up almost immediately after asking her question. "No prodding my brain for answers this time Kaleb. I want to know what type of shows you like to watch."

I chuckle as I lead us towards my room for the evening. "I like a bunch of genres of movies. I think my favorites would be a tie between comedy, action and romance." She raised an eyebrow and I chuckle opening the door to my room. "My family likes to joke saying I'm a hopeless romantic. Which I'll have to agree with them on. All of my relationships had ended fairly quickly due them always being predictable. Which is why I find your mind so fascinating."

We walk into the room and take a seat on the couch in front of the lacrima tv. "Well then. I guess we have a bit in common then. Those are my top 3 favorites too." She smiled over at me. "So then what should we watch?" I grab the remote off the table in front of us then lean back and wrap an arm around her over the couch.

"You choose." I hand the remote to her and then stand up to order our food for the evening. I place the call and come back in to see Lucy had found a Harry Potter marathon and was sitting there watching as the main three characters had just met on the train. "Good choice. I love this series." She smiles over at me.

We relax until there's a knock on the door and I stand up to answer and find our food there. I tip the man who brought it up and then bring it back into the room and set it on the table. "Your dinner mi estrella."

We eat in silence as we watch the rest of the movie laughing when needing. "I always find it funny how they think trolls look like versus how they look in our world." She giggled then said a quick gross when the wand got stuck in the trolls nose.

"It really is interesting. All the creatures they came up with that are real in our world, and they chose to re-imagine them into something else." She nodded in agreement and then laid her head on my shoulder, sighing contentedly.

"Mhm. This is nice though. Thanks for spending time with me this evening Kaleb. It was really nice getting to know a little bit about you." I looked down at her to see her smiling up at me. I leaned down and pressed a kiss to her forehead making her smile even more brightly and blush.

"I had fun tonight too Lucy. Thank you for giving me a chance and spending time with me." She nods slowly and closes her eyes and I can feel her breathing even out before her mind goes blank with sleep.

I smile and pick her up carefully to go and lay her down on the bed. Truly a fascinating woman.

Side note guys: I quite obviously don't own the Harry Potter franchise. That wonderful magnificence goes to J.K Rowling. And for a little bit of added fun, if you are in that fandom, what house do you guys belong to? I'm a proud Hufflepuff! :)
