Near Miss

I do not own Fairy Tail Hiro Mashima does

This chapter is written from Orao's point of view so Feleis will be referred to as mommy Doragon as Daddy.

Mmmm so warm. I thought as I snuggled up to mommy on a couple of bench seats Ms. Mirajane had pushed together. My tail wrapped itself around her legs and I lay my head on her chest, I fell asleep to her heartbeat. I had a weird dream that night, I was running through Magnolia looking at the different shops, and when I finally stopped running, I was at Ms. Lucy's house I knocked gently, and she let me in her house smelled like cookies, after I got inside however my dream ended as I woke with a start. I could hear a raspy sound inside the guild. As I swiveled my ears around I pinpointed the sound to be coming from the infirmary.

I crawled out from under the blanket and padded over to the sound. It was Daddy, he was breathing funny and sweating heavily. When I tried to shake him awake I noticed blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. I tried my healing magic, but no difference, so I looked for help. Ms. Mira was nowhere to be seen, but Ms. Lucy was asleep by Mr. Natsu. Running to her I said, "Ms. Lucy, Ms. Lucy wake up!" She groaned quietly, but didn't wake up, so I tickled her nose with my tail.

"A-a-a-achoo!" Ms. Lucy sneezed then looked at me, "Orao! Why did you wake me up?"

"Daddy's breathing funny! He won't wake up and there's blood dripping from his mouth!" I said my tail flicking nervously, "My healing magic isn't working either, I don't know what to do." Tears formed in my tan and brown eyes.

Ms. Lucy then noticed the funny breathing and ran to daddy. "Crap! Orao, go grab your mommy, tell her to find Wendy!" I nodded quickly, and wiped the tears from my brown right eye, and ran to mommy. She woke easily, and I told her what Ms. Lucy told me, she got up stretched her wings and was out of the guild in a hurry. I suddenly heard a strange moaning sound, my right ear swiveled backward slightly and I went over to the bar, Ms. Mira was on the floor, and waking up.

"Ms. Mira!" I said, and her eyes fluttered open.

"What is it Orao?" she replied a tad agitated to be awake at such a time.

"Daddy's not breathing right, mommy went to get Wendy, and Ms. Lucy is trying to help Daddy."

She nodded and ducked into the infirmary. Daddy was rolled onto his stomach, vomit and blood pooled on the floor, I wrinkled my nose as I ran to Daddy, Ms. Lucy held me back.

"Orao, you are not going to want to see this. You should go wait for your mom and Wendy," as she said this Daddy wretched again, the pool on the floor grew larger.

"Why? What's wrong with Daddy?" I replied.

"I don't know, but you need to leave so you don't get in the way!" I flattened my ears against my head and hissed

"No! I'm staying to comfort Daddy!"

"Ugh!" Lucy growled, and pulled out her keys, "Open gate of canis minor!"

Plue popped out and looked at me.

"No not the dog!" I screeched, and ran out of the room. I hate dogs, even Ms. Lucy's. I could hear voices from the infirmary, probably not meant for my ears, but I still listened.

"We need Porlyusica and fast, Doragon's not going to last long" Ms. Lucy whispered.

"I know, I'll go get her, though she is not going to be happy about being woken up at this hour."

"She'll be fine."

"It's not her I'm worried about." Ms. Mira, ran out of the infirmary, then transformed into her she-demon form and flew away.

Who were they talking about? I wondered. My eyelids were getting heavy, I yawned, and crawled over to a nearby bench to sit down, I need to stay awake for Daddy, but I am just so sleepy. I closed my eyes and nodded off.

I awoke to the familiar feeling of mommy stroking my back. Her hand was warm and gentle. I sat up slowly and stretched, my tail was stiff, and the fur was caked with dried blood and bile, why is that there, then I realized, I must have let my tail fall into the puddle Daddy was puking up. My Eyes widened, and I rushed to the infirmary, Daddy was sleeping soundly, the puddle was cleaned up and there was a strange woman who smelled like apples talking to Ms. Mira, I approached quietly. As I drew closer, Ms. Lucy noticed my presence and waved me on to her lap. Jumping up I sat looking at Daddy, he looked so much better.

"So who is this little tyke?" the woman who smelled like apples asked.

"I'm Orao, why do you smell like apples?" I asked.

"I live in a forest and I have many apple trees," She laughed, "My name is Porlyusica, nice to meet you."

"Porlusca?" I said.

"No, Por-ly-u-si-ca."

"porlysca?" I struggled with her name.

Wendy awoke from her sleeping position next to Ms. Mira and noticed Ms. Porysica, and exclaimed, "Grandeeney, when did you get here?"

"Not long after you fell asleep, Wendy." She replied.

"Grandeeney?" I asked confused, "I thought you were Polursca?"

"Wendy calls me Grandeeney… I guess if you can't say my real name you can call me that as well." She looked a little flustered.

"Ok, I'll call you Grandeeney then." I said smiling. Grandeeney turned to talk to Mommy, who had just walked in.

"It looks like Doragon will recover fine now, it was close the internal bleeding he suffered was severe, if you hadn't discovered him he would have been dead before morning!"

"Thank goodness, but I can't take all the credit, I didn't discover him, Orao did." Mommy replied.

Grandeeney smiled at me, turned and left. I was still tired from last night, hearing Ms. Lucy's heartbeat didn't help, before long I was asleep, dreaming of balls of yarn.
