Hey gais! It's been a while! Sorry to leave you all hanging like that but I had to update my other story, cuz it was falling a bit behind… Anyway! The moment you've all been waiting for…..Why the hell're you still here? Get to the story!

~~x*X*x~~

.*.*.O.*.*.

"Ahh, Fairy Tail people are so noisy" Eve complained, sipping her teacup of milk, listening to the banging and commotion outside the door, Natsu obviously pissed that he'd been cheated….and maybe a little bit because she had locked the door.

Lucy waited under the pile of pillows, holding her breath, scared that if she breathed then Natsu would hear her, and she wasn't ready for that. How would she explain her feelings to them? Why she had left them so suddenly. Then it struck her. Her mark! It was gone! How was Natsu gonna react to such a thing? Even if she had promised to come back home eventually, she hadn't thought about Natsu chasing her. Hell, she didn't even really think her plan through at all!
Lucy began chewing her lip in desperation, listening to Natsu's desperate cries from outside the door, and for once she felt guilty about leaving. She hadn't thought about how Natsu would feel if she left. They were best friends. He must have been heartbroken. A single tear slide down her soft cheek, before being adsorbed by a pillow. And yet, hearing her pink-haired best friend screaming her name, trying to break down the door and Lucy felt a tiny bit happy that he had come all this way, just for her. He had come to rescue her, just like always.

*x**x*F*x**x*

"Luuuuucccy!" Natsu continued to wail, banging his fists against the big pink, and seemingly indestructible door. Erza, Gray, Levi and Gajeel sat nearby, waiting her his temper tantrum to subside before beginning their own attempt to open the door.

Of course, since they weren't really paying attention, they didn't notice the group of cute boys walking up behind them, curious as to why they were sulking outside their clubroom, while some other guy was trying to break down the door itself.

.*.*.O.*.*.

"Hey, what're you doing?" The twins asked, coming up behind a tiny blue-haired girl and placing their hands on her small shoulders, turning on the charm as she quite visibly blushed. Mori and Honey stared at a big clump of black….hair (?), sitting in the corner. It began to growl the second the twins touched the solid script mage, who was still blushing like mad as the twins fawned over her like a little lost kitten.

Kyouya watched the strange group from a distance, when it struck him. A fool with Pink hair, a tiny girl with blue hair, a scarlet-haired lady warrior, a guy who was almost naked, and a big guy in all black. This must be some of the people Lucy would tell stories about. "That must be Natsu" he said aloud, but not loud enough for anyone but the dragon slayers to hear, who turned to stare at him, Natsu with a pouty face, and the one Lucy called Gajeel, as Kyouya recalled.

Tamaki watched in confusion at the pink haired boy pounding on the clubs door, pouting and mumbling something, before another boy, one with raven hair and his shirt on the floor, began to try and pull the pouty boy from the door, telling him to calm down and think for a moment. Tamaki, of course, still managed to make no connection what so ever to the stories of the great and powerful Salamander that Lucy told stories of. He looked up to see the twins playing with the little girl, calling her Levi, which was an odd name, in Tamaki's opinion.

"Ahh! I'm gonna be late again! Tamaki-Senpai will be mad at me!" Haruhi worried as she gathered her things from the library and rushed to music room 3, but was still quite far away, before bumping into Emily, who was also on her way there.

(Inside the room)

"Status report?" Lucy requested from Calypso, who was sitting nearby.

"Looks like the clubs shown up."

"What? Nooooo!" Lucy cried out softly

"Why not?"

"Cuz then there's a chance Natsu might attack them, of course!"

"Oh. That's bad."

"Yeah"

And their conversation ended as quickly as it started. Calypso stood up and walked towards the door, sending Eve a quick nod, who nodded back.

Spreading her white wings, Calypso floated up, unlocked the door and pressed down on the door handle, releasing the catch and watching the exploding chaos around her. Literally. EXPLODING. Natsu had lost it (The fact that the door wouldn't open) and had started spitting flames around, but before any damage could be done, Gray and Levi had put it out, Gray yelled out insults.

*x**x*F*x**x*

Natsu stopped his attack on nothing in particular as the door creaked open, the cat from before floating in the doorway, Happy napping on the seat behind her. Natsu stared at the open door for a moment, believing it to be an illusion. He stepped forward slowly, before breaking into a quick run, blasting through the door dramatically. He paused in the middle of the room, suddenly realizing it's his strangest nightmare. Everything was the same color as his hair!

Of course, after a moment of re-living the idea of everything being pink, or salmon, he got over it and walked over to Happy, shaking him gently, pulling him from sleep.

"Mm? Natsu?" the blue cat asked.

"Hey, buddy"

"What's going on? Where am I? Why's everything pink?"

"Ok, 1. We came to find Luce, 2. You're at some school….I think…and 3. It's not pink, it's Salmon!"

Natsu wasn't quite sure why he was defending a room he'd never seen before, and it was so obviously pink. After another few moments of chatting with his partner, he resumed his search for Lucy, as he sniffed the air, he easily caught the sweet scent of vanilla and followed it over to the pile of pillows.

.*.*.O.*.*.

Lucy his, holding her breath as she watched Natsu's sandaled feet stepping closer and closer to her through the little crack Calypso make earlier.

*x**x*F*x**x*

Natsu could see the shimmers of golden hair within the pillows as he advanced more, before crouching in front of where he believed where Lucy's face would be. He slowly grabbed the bear covering Lucy's pretty face and lifted it, staring into Lucy's big, brown, shocked eyes. At that moment he could only think of one thing to say, as if this was all one big game of hide and seek:

"Found you, Luce"
