Hello all
I don't own fairy tail
Enjoy!
Natsu woke up on soft ground. By the smells that were around him, he guessed he was in woodland. Beside him, a broken jar of jam was lying with insects all over it. The dragon slayer smiled, remembering the events from last night.
"I wouldn't eat that if I were you."
Natsu rolled onto his back, and found that Haru was standing above him with messy hair.
"Do you always watch people when they sleep? Or am I just a new fascination?" He said, smiling and propping himself on his elbows. Haru flattened his hair a little and rolled his eyes.
"I only came over here a couple of seconds ago, to try and terminate those bugs." Haru answered, pointing to the bug mess. Natsu sat up properly and shuffled away from it. He then looked around.
"Anyone else awake yet?" He asked. Haru held out his hand and Natsu took it, pulling himself onto his feet.
"Well…Yuki is, but she's getting breakfast. Well, trying- Mika is more of the chef here…"
"Yuki's food is poison."
They looked behind them and saw that Rinn was standing up slowly. He looked at the sleeping forms of Mika and Myron, and stepped over them.
"And that's putting it politely." He said, then started to kick some remaining sticks into the fire. Natsu looked at them curiously.
"How did you end up here?" The dragon slayer asked them both. He thought he might be invading privacy, but Haru seemed pleased at the question. His face broke into a grin.
"Here we go…" Rinn said and Haru spoke.
"When I was younger, about fifteen, I saw a car I really wanted to get, but my parents wouldn't let me."
"For unknown reasons.." Rinn said sarcastically, and Haru carried on.
"Anyway, one day I was just like, why don't I just take this thing?, so I did. When I passed it again, I just jumped in, and drove off. Later, the car crashed against a tree, and I knew then that I was past the point of no return."
Natsu laughed at the story, and turned to Rinn.
"What about you?" He asked. Rinn shrugged.
"I just walked out of town one day, and kept walking."
Suddenly, Myron stirred and turned to them.
"I fucked a girl…" He said drowsily, "and my lovely mother got pissed." He then rolled onto his back but made no attempt to get off the ground. All he did was tickle his dog, Villain, gently. The dog stirred.
"Get up, Villain…" He said and the dog made a grunting sound. The boys laughed quietly over the dog's antics.
"What time is it?" Myron asked, brushing his green hair out of his face.
"Dunno." Rinn said and looked across at Mika, who was the only person that was still sleeping.
"Who wants to wake Mika up?" Haru asked, following his gaze.
"I will." Natsu answered, walking over to the sleeping girl.
"Be fucking loud." Myron called behind him. Natsu grinned and bent down to Mika's ear. He then cleared his throat before:
"MIKA WAKE UP YOU LAZY FUCK!" Haru, Rinn and Myron collapsed in laughter and Mika yelled and sat up, knocking her and Natsu's heads together.
"Shit!" Mika yelled, rubbing her head. Natsu had fell onto the ground, clutching his forehead. The boys were now howling with laughter. Another voice with the noise made Natsu realise that Yuki had came back just at that moment.
"My poor head…" The dragon slayer moaned, sitting up slowly. Just then, Villain, the big black dog, came bounding up to him and started to lick every inch of his face. Natsu laughed and tried to push him away, but the dog wasn't deterred.
"Villain- stop attacking Creeper!" He heard Myron cry, and the dog leapt off him immediately and went to sit at his master's side.
"I found breakfast…" Yuki said, holding out some nice looking fruits, stifling her giggles.

Gray, Erza, Lucy and Happy arrived in Bosco to get to the location of their mission. However, they didn't speak much, leaving an uncomfortable silence.
"What is our mission again?" Gray said, wanting to distract himself from his thoughts.
"The flyer said that this guy wanted us to help with a problem in his town." Erza answered immediately, pulling out the piece of paper.
"What problem?" Lucy asked. Erza scanned the flyer.
"Says…that there is lots of 'street kids' in his town, and they cause 'havoc'" she started to read some of the flyer:
"'I want you to make sure that they stop creating chaos- I would do it but some of them look like mages. They eventually leave, but new ones always seem to take their place.'" The scarlet Mage folded up the paper again whilst walking and returned it to her pocket.
"Why did she pick this one?" Gray muttered as he walked, but he already knew the answer.
"Do distract us…and herself…" He said under his breath and put his hands in his pockets. Lucy was walking just ahead of him, and he could tell she was thinking the same thing; she was looking at the ground in thought.
"Come back, flame brain." He muttered, "Don't die on me…"
-#!-#!-#!-#!
"Everybody ready for some walking!" Mika cried, prancing ahead of her friends with a smile on her face. She had a rucksack on her back which she kept taking off and swinging. Her friends were behind her, not as enthusiastic.
"Where do you get your. Fucking. Energy. From?" Myron asked, herding Villain in front of him. The dog barked and ran ahead, wagging his tail.
"Where did you get your dog from?" Natsu asked, watching the animal try to eat a fly. Rinn ran up to the dog and pretended he was going to pounce. Villain barked loudly and ran to the left playfully, tongue hanging out of his mouth.
"I found him one day." Myron said, following Natsu's gaze. "I ran into a dark alleyway- away from a shop owner- when I saw him lying there, half dead. I gave him the food I brought and some water. He seemed okay after that and I left. When I turned around again- 'bout ten minutes later- the little shit was following me. Never has stopped following me since." Myron smiled at the memory.
"Wow." Natsu said.
"Know, right?" Yuki chimed in, pulling a leaf out of her red hair casually. "It's the perfect backstory for a movie. Seems unreal." Haru walked beside Natsu, smiling.
"And what's your perfect movie, Carrot top?" He said, "Yours and Reaper's wedding day?"
Yuki went red.
"No way!" She shouted and Mika stopped for a second. She then carried on, deciding she'd rather stay out of this one.
"Come on…Carrot top and Reaper? Good match." Myron said and Yuki blushed. Natsu laughed.
"I agree. I can see your child already…" The dragon slayer chimed in, "a skeleton with beautiful red locks…"
"An ugly skeleton…" Myron added.
"With a foul temper…"
"And born with black clothes already stuck to his body…" Haru teased. Yuki rolled her eyes.
"Good description guys…so accurate that I think that you lot have been looking in the mirror too much lately." She said.
"Oh snap!" Mika yelled from in front. "Girl power at its finest!" Natsu grinned and looked at the trees they were walking through.
"Where are we actually going?" Mika yelled from the front, reading his thoughts. Haru pushed his glasses up a little.
"We are entering Bosco." Haru said, pulling out a map from his pocket.
"Where's that?" Natsu asked. The name ring a bell.
"Dunno…" Haru muttered. "By Fiore somewhere…"
"Where's Fiore?" Rinn asked, walking backwards to get to them. Villain had a stick in his mouth, and bashed it against Myron's hip- it could reach there easily because of its size.
"Dunno…" Myron said and wrenched the stick from his dog's jaws. He then threw it and Villain went sprinting after it, barking.
"Good throw." Yuki said.
"Thanks, Carrot top."
They walked a while more, throwing sticks and chatting, until some buildings came in view behind the remaining trees in front of them.
"We are now entering Bosco." Myron said in a computer like voice. "Best known for being a complete failure and a pile of shit when it comes to civilisation…"
The group of friends laughed.
"Bit harsh." Haru said. "But true in lots of cases."
"But not food." Mika added and suddenly started yelling and waving. "Hey! Come here!"
Natsu looked ahead and saw that a bus was coming their way. It pulled up and the door opened.
"Hey kids- where ya goin'" the bus driver asked, leaning out of the gap. The group of friends smiled.
"The first stop that hits a town in Bosco." Haru said, pulling his bag further up his shoulder.
"Can do." The driver said And beckoned then in. He then held out his hand for money, and the group looked at each other uncertainty.
"Do you want to tell him, Blue Jay?" Myron said. She sighed.
"Blue jay?" The bus driver questioned.
"We had very cruel mothers." Natsu said quickly and the driver laughed.
"Look kids," He said, "I know ya don't have any money. Ya can see that from a mile away. But because I liked that joke, I'm gonna give ya a free ride."
Haru, Rinn, Yuki, Myron, Mika and Natsu cheered.
"What's your name?" Rinn asked, climbing in the front seat, behind the driver.
"That's none of your business." The driver said, smiling. Haru sat next to Rinn, dropping his bag onto the floor. Myron then sat behind them, and Natsu joined him.
"I thought our mothers were the cruel ones…" Myron said, grinning. The bus driver laughed loudly.
"Good kids…" he muttered happily.
Yuki and Mika sat themselves on the opposite side of Haru and Rinn.
"Do you mind dogs?" Myron called. A woman near the back glared at the noise.
"Is it trained?" The driver asked.
"Yup."
"Then he can come on."
"Villain!" Myron called and the dog cams trotting in the bus with its tongue out.
"Big dog!" The driver said.
"He gets that a lot."
"Love ya, That's None Of Your Business!" Mika cried happily. Rinn rolled his eyes.
"Tell me you didn't just call him that…" he said, brushing his fringe out of his face. Natsu smiled and looked out the window, pulling on his jacket properly. As he looked at the town coming towards him, he became lost in thought.
"Budge up!" Myron said and Natsu was face to face with a big, pink tongue all over again.
"Down, boy!" Myron said as always, and the dog somehow squashed itself into the middle causing Natsu to be crushed against the wall and Myron to be dangling off his seat. It was going to be a long journey, but Natsu was looking forward to it.
