Erza and her team finally arrived at their destination after their long trip, All of them seems tired especially Natsu, who has motion sickness but Lucy and Wendy took care of it. The location of the orphanage was at the east hillside, and without out haste they are on their way. While walking, Gray asked Erza why she seems quiet than usual, she doesn't even care if he and Natsu are fighting so he directly asked her, "Hey, are you ok? You seems a bit…..quiet" But Erza didn't respond, she was in a daze or deeply thinking of something, Gray then just placed his hands behind his head and moved along.
BACK AT FAIRY TAIL GUILD
"Master! Juvia is gone!" says Cana holding a piece of paper in her hand, Master, with Mira and Gajeel approached her and she handed the paper to him, Makarov read the note and directly ordered Gajeel to go to the location, Gajeel was the only person who Juvia is very close with and so he went out straight to the location which is the orphanage leaving silence inside the guild. Mira was requested to send a telepathy note to Team Natsu quickly. Cana was standing there and looked at the guild's preparation for Juvia's birthday party, she clenched her fist and asked herself, "Why? Why must you disappear on such important day? Why did you run away? This is too suspicious" Cana then grabbed her cards an sat down at the table and performed a divination, she closed her eyes and waited….when her magic activated and she directly touched the card in the upper left….When she flipped it, her eyes were wide opened that she stood up and her chair fell, she knelt down, covering her face for tears started to fall. Evergreen and Levy approached Cana and asked, "What's wrong Cana?" Cana wiped her tears and murmured,"Gray and the others must hurry or" she crumpled the card and shouted, "THEY MUST HURRY OR JUVIA WILL DIE!" and those words echoed throughout the guild.
AT THE ORPHANAGE
"Thank you so much for coming here" says the headmistress while bowing to show their gratitude, Natsu and the others took a seat, drank some tea before starting their mission and observed that the headmistress had a huge scar on her right cheek. Erza was the first person to asked the headmistress, "So, this bargain of yours, Is he powerful and hard to find?" The headmistress watched the balcony and observed that its about to rain, "He has a name, he is no mere bargain, he is a child of here too but that was many years ago…" Lucy sweatdropped and said, "Um, that doesn't answer her que-" but she was cut off by Erza and she wanted the headmistress to continue, "His name was Ren, he was such a nice boy, he started to live here when he was 7, he loves to play and have fun until something went wrong with him" Gray then took a sip of his tea and clasped his hands an leaned it to his chin, "What happened to him?" the headmistress shook her head, looking at her reflection at her tea, "When he was already 10 years old, a demon overshadowed him in his sleep, When I checked his room, it was a disaster, his things were broken and he was floating, I brought along a Legion priest for him but it seems he was too powerful he even throwed a knife at me which gave me this scar" she touched her right cheek with a sad expression. Natsu and the others were just staring at her in sience and curiousity, "So what happened next?" asked Natsu while standing and leaned against the wall, the HM(headmistress) replied, "The last words I hear before I fainted were: souls huh? Then I shall collect them for Lord Zeref" That name alarmed the gang an then the rain started to pour. Erza then stood up and looked angry,"ZEREF?! SOULS? THIS IS LIKE THE TOWER OF HEAVEN…" Lucy tapped Erza's shoulders for her to calm down
For she starled the HM, Erza apologized and sat back at the couch while Gray and Natsu were shaking for she looked like a monster for a sec, Wendy, Happy and Carla sweatdropped and sighed. The HM then told them, "I could still hear his laugh and the cries of her" "Her?" Natsu's team said this in unison. The HM grabbed something at the drawer under the table and said, "Yes, her cries…..she was the closest friend of Ren and at the same time his crush" before she could opened it, Natsu smelled something familiar, something sweet, simple and Blue? When it completel opened, Gray and the others gasped of what they saw: A teru Teru Bozu, A thick clothing and a picture of him and her holding hands"
All of them shouted at the same time, "JUVIA!" and the HM looked surprise for it is the name of the girl in the picture. Then they decided to take a short break, Natsu and Erza talking about something, Lucy and Wendy eating cake, Happy and Carla floating and talking and Gray was looking outside the balcony and starred at the Gloomy sky and thought to himself, "What is your relationship with the bargain and how close are you with Ren Juvia?"
A sneeze came out from Juvia as she was walking at the road with her umbrella, "Someboy's talking about Juvia" she then giggled and murmured to herself, "Of course, everyone must have noticed by now….." She looked at the hillside and saw the orphanage and she whispered, "I'm home Ren"
She continued walking while the rain poured harder bt Little does she know someone was already watching her deep in bthe forest, he just answere, "Welcome back, Juvia"
