I do not own fairy tail

Enjoy!

Happy was oddly silent as the group of mages walked back to the battered hotel they were staying in temporarily; the exceed kept looking behind him, as if he was expecting something. Finally, Lucy's curiousness took over her.

"What' s wrong Happy?" She said, catching the blue cat's attention. Erza and Gray stopped in their tracks, waiting for an answer- they too had noticed Happy's odd behaviour. Happy sniffed and looked away, flying in front of them.

"Nothing…" he muttered unconvincingly and Lucy suddenly grabbed his tail.

"Look, cat…" Lucy said softly, and Happy turned to face her, "we know something's bothering you…please talk." Happy looked away again and hovered in the air. The mages waited.

"Well today…" Happy started but then stopped to look at his teammates. They gave a encouraging nod and he carried on.

"I was flying above the streets, and I found some suspicious action…when I looked down…I saw…"

"Saw what?" Gray asked, hooked. Happy took a deep breath and the ice mage swore he saw tears glisten in the exceed's eyes.

"I thought I saw…I thought I saw Natsu!" Happy said quickly and quietly, and his tears splashed into the smooth tarmac below him. The mages froze, memories of Natsu flooding back to them; memories they had tried to push away during the last few days, to save themselves from loosing spirit.

"I know it probably wasn't him," Happy carried on bravely, tears dripping down his cheeks, "but still…"

"What exactly did you see?" Erza said quietly, her fringe covering her eyes. She was gripping her sword slightly and her hands were shaking.

"I saw his hair. Only one person could have had hair like that…"

Erza turned away and started walking again.

"Tell me if you see it again." She ordered and the group jogged to keep up with her.

Natsu watched the sun sink behind the various buildings.

"Nice view." He muttered, smiling. He stretched his legs out wide.

"Yeah…look at all the pollution."

Natsu turned his head slightly and saw Rinn standing behind him with his arms folded.

"Are you always this negative?" Natsu asked jokingly. Rinn smiled slightly.

"I have a very black soul."

"Huh."

Rinn laughed.

"I tell you I have a black soul…" he said, grinning, "and you say, 'huh?'" The black haired teen threw a bottle at the dragon slayer.

"You might wanna come down from here…Yuki and Myron are trying to out do each other with insults." He said. Natsu grinned at the thought and started to climb down the roof he was sitting on. Natsu had found the abandoned building and decided that it would be nice to climb it.

"Can't miss that!" Natsu cried happily, deciding just to slide down the roof tiles instead of climbing all the way down. He could hear Rinn beside him, doing the exact same thing. The dragon slayer' smile grew wider as he started to hear the first sounds of an argument breaking out below.

"Jump!" Rinn cried but it was too late. Natsu tripped on the drain pipe of the roof and went flying over the edge, landing with a thump on top of someone.

"Holy macaroni!" came a muffled voice under him; unmistakably Mika's.

"Priceless." Myron said, laughing. Villain came bounding up to the dragon slayer and started licking his face.

"No-stop-need to stop crushing Mika!" Natsu tried to explain to the dog without getting a giant tongue in his mouth. The dragon slayer managed to roll sideways so he was no longer crushing Mika.

"I'm alive!" She cried, jumping up and spreading her arms wide. "Why, cruel world, why?!"

Myron laughed.

"Maybe this fucking world just wants to see you suffer." He said. Haru came into Natsu' s view, pushing up his black rimmed glasses.

"Language." He sighed and helped Natsu up.

"Yeah, Myron." Rinn said, stifling a laugh, "what if a kid heard you bad mouthing the world?"

"Shame on you." Yuki said, walking over with some biscuits in her hand. Natsu smiled at the sight of food and picked up his drink, which was rolling across the floor.

"Here." Yuki said and tossed the dragon slayer a biscuit, who caught it in his mouth.

"Impressive." Haru said, watching him. Natsu bowed.

"I always impress…"

Yuki snorted.

"Yeah…", She said and they sensed a burn coming on, "you impress me by proving you have enough intelligence to speak!"

Natsu mocked fainted into Haru's arms whilst applause and whooping roared around him. Any bystander would've thought some sort of explosion had taken place.

"QUIET!" a bossy voice shouted from the street; this only made the group of teens roar with laughter. Villain, getting excited, started to howl, making the whole situation worse.

Mika started to howl along first, but soon all members of the group were howling at a nonexistent moon.

"Some people are trying to sleep!" The voice yelled again. Natsu grinned, feeling cocky.

"If you're asleep at this hour," he yelled back, "you need to start rethinking your life choices!"

Again, whoops, cheers and howls broke out from the group. There was a sound of a window shutting, then silence spread across the street. It was late, after all.

"Echoooooo…" Mika said and cupped her ear, listening for a response. None came.

"Rejected." Yuki said and Mika yelled louder:

"Echoooooooooo!"

Nothing.

"The town's too big." Haru explained, "you won't hear your precious echo."

"Oh yeah?!" Mika said and was about to yell again, but Myron put a hand over her mouth, causing her to gasp out.

"Saved the day again." He said, grinning, "just call me and I'll c- arrh- WHAT THE FUCK?!"

Myron withdrew his hand that was over Mika's mouth disgustedly and wiped it on his trousers. Mika was in hysterics.

"Did you lick him, by any chance?" Haru asked.

"Yup!" Mika answered with a proud grin.

"Unbelievable."

Yuki stood in between them both to get their attention.

"Guys!" She yelled. "Who's up for pissing off this neighbourhood more?" They all nodded and all took a deep breath.

And howled.

Villain joined in again, wagging his tail.

They did this until they ran out of breath, then Haru picked up a can from the floor and threw it at the window which the person who was shouting at them was in. It smashed against the glass, cracking it slightly.

"Score!" Haru yelled before saying, "I think we ought to go…before we get chased from the police."

"Good idea." Myron said and they all left, just before a angry face peered out the door.
