"What do you mean he shattered it?!" A man with white hair and a scythe slung across his back demanded
"That's just is my lord Erigor he must have overheard us," Kageyama bowed low "He took the flute and broke it right before our eyes."
Erigor Fumed "Who was this insect?"
"By his look's I would say he was Natsu Dragneel of Fairy Tail." Kageyama answered
"We are going to destroy everything closest to him, people will know the name Eisenwald and tremble at the mention of our name!" Erigor cackled manically.
Erza fell back on her bed heavily with a sigh, she heard a few small steps before she felt a weight on her shoulder's she frowned and opened her eyes in annoyance she looked up at Levy who stared down at her.
"Look Erza you are my roommate and this is all fine, but if you sigh again I am going to go insane," Levy stated flatly "Why are you here anyway, I would have thought you would be going on another mission by now."
"Natsu took off on a solo-mission when I left for Hargeon," Erza explained "I am waiting for him to get back and it's my birthday tomorrow so it is unlikely we are going on a job, I am just so bored."
"Oh, yay I love birthday parties." Levy jumped excitedly
Erza groaned as Levy grabbed her arm "Come on we are going shopping you aren't going to your own party like that."
Erza looked down at her clothes "What wrong with the way I look?"
"You are never going to get Natsu's attention looking like that," Levy said as she dragged Erza behind her "So let's go!"
"I regret telling you that now." Erza said exasperated
Levy gave her a wide smile "Ah, but this is why you love me," she exclaimed "Don't worry I will get you into something that turns heads."
"I don't want to turn head's Levy," Erza defended before Levy cut her off.
"Just trust me, jealousy is a weapon girls have used since the beginning of time alright?" Levy gave her a mischievous smile.
"As if Natsu is going to get jealous because guys are looking at me," Erza retorted "You don't know him very well."
Levy shrugged "Have a little faith."
Natsu sneezed and rubbed at his nose
Juvia giggled "Bless you."
"What's funny about that?" Natsu asked raising he eyebrow at her.
"The elder at out village said that you sneeze when someone else is talking about you." Juvia said with a smile.
Natsu shook his head "I still don't see what's caused you to laugh."
Juvia shrugged and Natsu peered at her and shook his head.
"What's it like being in a guild?" Juvia asked after a few minutes of silence.
"Like a being in a family." Natsu answered simply.
Juvia nodded "And who do you think is the strongest in the guild?"
Natsu rubbed his chin with his finger for a moment "Well as far as strongest member's the three S-class wizards myself, Mystagan and Laxus we are considered the strongest but of the three of us I have only seen Laxus fight I cannot speak for Mystagan but to make S-class he is obviously powerful."
Juvia nodded "So can you beat Laxus?"
Natsu thought for a moment "We have never fought, but I think I could."
"Are there any girls in the S-class?" Juvia asked
Natsu shook his head "No, while I think there are some who could be at this point none of them are actually there yet."
"Do you think I could make S-class someday?" Juvia asked excitedly
Natsu nodded "Sure, if you work hard to get a handle on that magic I don't see why you couldn't."
Juvia nodded and ran in front of him she pointed at him with a large smile "One day I am going to be stronger than you!"
Natsu smiled "You sure about that I am not going to let you beat me easily."
Juvia nodded with fierce determination "Yeah I am going to surpass you and beat you!"
"I will hold you to that." Natsu said walking past her.
"Hey Natsu," Juvia asked "How much farther?"
"You didn't notice," Natsu asked gesturing ahead of them "We are about to walk into Magnolia surely you're not that absentminded."
Juvia glared at him "No, I just got caught up in talking to you."
"Yeah well," Natsu smirked "Welcome to Magnolia."
Natsu opened the door to the guild hall, people were bustling about setting tables and clearing room he spotted Mirajane in the centre of the room directing people about.
"At least tell me you told Erza about her party this time," Natsu called out "Remember last year in the surprise party, I would rather not get burnt again."
"Oh, Natsu glad to see you back!" Mirajane called out happily ignoring his comments.
"I told Levy about it, she is going to tell Erza." Mirajane said quickly
Natsu blinked and looked up "Oh, right this is Juvia, she wants to join Fairy Tail."
Mirajane looked the girl up and down Natsu watched her for a moment before speaking "I leave her in your capable hands, I am off to prepare myself." he flourished his hand in a mocking bow and turned on his heel.
Mirajane glared at his back as the door closed before turning back to the girl "Well done, he seems very cheery."
Juvia smiled wickedly "Well it's not like I got nothing out of it."
"So he taught you how to turn off the rain," Mirajane chuckled and patted the girl on the head "Come with me, we will give you your insignia."
Juvia nodded excitedly "Who is the party for?"
"Erza Dragneel." Mirajane answered absently
"That's who he likes?!" Juvia exclaimed
"Hm, oh how do you know that?" Mirajane looked at the girl quizzically
"He told me," Juvia answered "Wait are you trying to get them together in this party?"
Mirajane winked and put a finger on her lips "Don't tell anybody I will let you help."
Juvia's eyes sparkled mischievously and she nodded.
Natsu sighed "I wonder how many people Mirajane has in on her plan," he thought aloud "she certainly is not one for stealth."
Natsu requipped to his casual clothes and stuck his hands in his pockets as he walked home, Natsu thought out the last few days, so she gave Wakaba the rumor to get Erza to leave then expected me to take a job which I did and now she is planning a huge party, it is likely Levy is in on it and is attempting to keep Erza distracted until tomorrow for some kind of big reveal, then she will try to make me jealous of someone to the point where I declare my feelings and we run off happily ever after, I am not missing anything here am I Natsu thought to himself he looked to his left and a small glint caught his eye and he stopped, well I still need to buy Erza a gift whether Mirajane is plotting or not I will play the fool for now. he opened the door to the shop and walked inside.
Erza glared dagger's at Levy who stood in front of her smiling "This is pointless." Erza groaned.
Levy shook her head "No, you listen to me pointless is pacing around your room doing nothing," she continued "And besides it is your party you need to look nice."
"That's another thing I didn't ask for a party," Erza snapped "I don't even want one."
"Just imagine it," Levy said throwing her hand out in the air dramatically "You looking all beautiful."
Erza cut her off "Don't even go there, you have been reading romance again haven't you."
"Well a little," Levy admitted "But that's not the point!"
"There is no point," Erza retorted "this is a waste of time."
"Oh, please Mira's plan is foolproof even you can't screw it up." Levy said flatly.
"I knew it," Erza exclaimed victoriously "Mira is meddling again, if I can figure it out then Natsu probably already knows her whole plan."
Levy nodded and almost sinister smile crossed her face "No doubt he does, but even he isn't prepared this time."
Erza gulped "I don't like the sound of that."
A/N: I am going to cut it here because the party is going to be a whole other chapter, I hope you all like it!
