Chapter 5:
Recap:
The girls were discussing who would be the lucky guy they'll pair up with Mira. Their discussion didn't start off very well. Until Juvia spoke up and she may have their guy.
Back at the guild, Natsu was bored to no end. Gray was still wondering what Happy told them. By now the story of the girls' meeting has reached most of male members of the guild. While almost all left it be, others, mainly Gray, Gajeel, Natsu, and Happy were very curious on what the girls were up to.
"Maybe they're planning of taking over the guild" Happy said while eating a fish. The three boys imagined all of them beaten under a pile of other guys while the girls were standing victorious, on top of the pile stood Titania. They quickly shook the thought away.
"Nah" Natsu said "They wouldn't do something like that ...would they?" he gulped, voice filled with uncertainty as he said the last part
"Yeah, Happy they would never do anything remotely like that" Gray tried to convince himself more than Happy
"Or maybe they're thinking of making a new guild of their own?" Happy said
"No way. Fairy Tail's like they're family" Natsu said
"But still" Gajeel finally said something "Don't you find it a little suspicious? Out of the blue they decided to have this 'meeting'"
"You actually make sense" Natsu said with a hint of an insult in his voice but Gajeel chose to ignore it.
"But wait, if they're having a meeting why aren't all female members there?" Gray asked as he looked around
Mira was the only female they could see. Alzack and Bisca went on a vacation with their daughter. Cana took a mission with Laki. Evergreen's either not here yet or she's with the Raijin Tribe, but Freed and Bickslow 's here so that can't be it.
"Maybe Evergreen was late for their meeting?" Happy suggested
"Or she's fulfilling an assignment for them" Pantherlily, showed out of thin air, said
"Oh, hey Lily!" Natsu greeted
"And where have you been all this time?" Gajeel asked
"When I heard about this 'meeting' thing t decided to do a little investigating" the black exceed said "I saw Evergreen sneaking around outside awhile ago"
The guys listen intently, curious at the new information Lily brought.
"But when I lost her I decided to go to Lucy's, and see what I could get there. The one's I saw were Erza, Lucy, Wendy, Charle, Juvia, Levy, and Lisanna—"
"Now that you mention it" Gray interrupted "I saw all seven of them sitting at a table yesterday and it seemed like they were discussing something. Not the usual gossip though because they were whispering and stuff"
"Is that so?" Gajeel said
"As I was saying" Lily started again " I wasn't able to see what they were doing but I did hear a little bit of their conversation" the black cat paused
"Well? What is it?" Natsu said very curious at what the exceed had found out
"I heard them say several names, all of which were guys and it seems that the names aren't just from the guild". The boys' eyes grew wide. All with the same question in mind; Just what are the girls up to?
"Well what else?" Gray asked
"Unfortunately, they suddenly went quiet. I was afraid that they found out I was there so I hurriedly flew away" Lily finished. The table went silent; all they could hear was the usual noisy guild around them.
"One thing bothers me though" Gray broke the silence
"What is it?" Natsu asked
"If all the girls are doing something, elsewhere then why is Mirajane here?" the ice mage said
"She's here to run the bar of course" Natsu said. Gray face palmed
"I know that moron" Gray can't believe how empty his brain is. Before Natsu could do anything about Gray's remark, Gajeel answered Gray's question.
"Maybe she's here to lower suspicion" Gajeel said
"What?" Natsu asked, it was Gajeel's turn to slap his forehead
"Think about it squinty" Gray said getting annoyed at how slow he is "If all the females weren't here don't you think that calls for suspicion?"
"So your saying that Mira's in with them, droopy eyes?" Natsu said a little below a shout
"Finally he gets it" Gajeel said
"Well it's your fault if you think Mira's part of it why didn't you say so?" Natsu said a little too loud
Speak of the devil and he will appear or in this case, she-devil.
"Did you guys call me?" Mira asked behind them, startling the guys
"No, we didn't" Gray said while Gajeel banged Natsu's head on the table. If the clueless-loud-mouth pink haired dragon slayer were to cause a slip up who knows what will happen to them.
"WHAT?! Did you do that for?!" Natsu yelled then punched Gajeel sending him flying
"Cool it fire breath!" Gray said as he hit Natsu with his magic. Soon all three boys were fighting dragging anybody else in the brawl.
Mira just kept on smiling while Happy and Lily sighed. As Mira walked toward the bar avoiding the flying furniture. She couldn't help but wonder where the other female members were.
Meanwhile outside the seven figures were making their way towards the guild.
That concludes chapter five. The romance part is probably gonna take awhile, looking at it now it seems pretty long, it looks much shorter on paper though. Anyway thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed it.
