Ultear P.O.V

I sneezed. Wow I hope I'm not getting a cold. Meredy and I already had enough on our plate without illness. The dark guild Darkened souls was a guild that we (when in Grimoire heart) associated with frequently. The guild was usually involved in dealing stolen goods but lately had gotten extreme. Jellal had not come with us on this mission. Both me and Meredy felt that this was something we had to do on our own. The problem was they were smart, they didn't have a guild to go to they travelled. Never staying in the same place for too long. We had caught their trail they were about a week ahead of us now.

"Ultear?" I heard Meredy say. I turned to her to show her I was listening. "What do you think Jellal is doing right now?" she asked curiously. I smiled at this.

"I really don't know but I hope he's enjoying himself" Was my answer. We would be meeting up soon, I don't know what it was but I had a feeling that something special was waiting for us.

Lucy P.O.V

"We're almost there" Jellal said. Finally! I get to see where we're going! My pace quickened as I strode ahead of him. I bet he could see the excitement coming off me. I wouldn't usually be so excited but I had not been anywhere decent in ages! "Lucy" Jellal said from behind me. I turned quickly to him, not wanting to waste time. I was excited yes but my feet were killing me.

"Yeah?" I asked. I was fidgeting with a piece of my hair. I noticed the grin on his face and tensed myself. Since I started to travel with Jellal I had gotten pretty good at reading his expressions. The one he had on now was a warning of an idea. I'd now got used to having him here, even his weird yet adorable sleeping habits didn't bother me now.

"Before we get to the place I want you to wear this" He said holding up a blindfold. I rapidly shook my head, no. "Do you trust me?" he asked. Oh I'd heard that before and that ended with me almost coming down with a cold because of lack of warmth. I nodded reluctantly, I needed to trust him if he was going to train me didn't I? Besides I knew he wasn't going to do anything. Not saying anything I turned around so he could put the blindfold on. Ugh and just when we were almost there! "Just trust me it'll all be worth it, now listen to me and clear your head of anything else but my voice" he instructed me. I felt the blindfold tighten around my eyes as I did what I was told. I could tell it was serious, he was using that voice.

"Done" I said. I felt his hands on my shoulders as he guided me into the unknown. It was strange not to see. Yet comforting knowing he was here to guide me. He told me when to turn or take a large step. I think I'd figured what he was trying to do. He had already began training me. Cutting off the sense that was most important to me and trying to get me to connect with my other senses. I was quite impressed at his skill in magic but I had a feeling we wouldn't be training in magic for a while atleast.

"Stop" he said. I was itching to take off the blindfold. "Are you ready?" he asked teasingly. I knew he was enjoying taunting me. I nodded to him, yes. "Are you sure?" he said. I didn't want to wait any longer.

"Just take the damn blindfold off" I almost growled. What's wrong with me? He chuckled and untie the knot which secured the blindfold. With my vision back it took a few seconds for my vision to adjust before I looked around. We were in a forest with the tallest trees I'd ever seen. We were in the middle of a large clearing that was surrounded by wild and exotic flowers I never could of thought existed. The sky was completely clear not a cloud in sight. WOW. Wait where were we? "It's beautiful I've never been to a place like this before." I said to him. It was strange, I felt oddly comfortable here.

"I'd be surprised if you had,this is Waas forest. This forest has magical energy flowing through it. It enhances peoples raw magical power. Not alot of people know this, they think it to be legend but really all legends originate from actual history" Jellal explained. So that's the strange energy I've been feeling?

"Thanks for surprising me it was worth the wait" I said to him. He smiles again before turning on his heal.

"This will be where we train until Ultear and Meredy return to us. After that we may travel or stay here for a while. I chose this place because it is well hidden and quite away away from Magnolia and Fairy Tail that way we will not cross paths. You haven't seen the best part of this forest but I will show you Tonight." he said. I really appreciated what he was doing I mean he didn't have to train me he could have easily turned down Laxus's offer but he didn't. I noticed that he had began to set up camp and went to help him.

The tent was the part I hated the most. No matter what I couldn't set it up. I tried again and again and again but I guess it didn't like me or something. Okay I could do this it's only a tent. It's only a tent I kept repeating it in my head...After several minutes of frustration and cursing I had finally had enough and turned to look for Jellal. He stood watching me struggle with a smirk plastered on his face. I sighed this was so not funny! Okay maybe it kinda was...

At Fairy Tail (Natsu P.O.V)

In the guild I was miserable. Why? My best friend left without telling me and I felt guilty. I had ignored her for a whole month. We were on the same damn team for god sake! Why did I do that to her? After all we'd been through as Nakama I never thought...I sighed no one was themselves. The guild had changed. I didn't like it not one bit. Erza told me and the guild not to try and find Lucy but I went anyway. I caught her scent and followed it but it lead me to the last person I thought I'd see.

Flashback (Natsu P.O.V)

The forest? Seriously Luce? How predictable. I thought, it wouldn't take me long to find her scent in here since it way different to these other natural scents. I only had a couple of hours before people (especially Erza) began asking where I am so I better start using that time wisely. The problem was how was I going to get her back to the guild? I decided that if it came to it I'd drag her back. We deserved an explanation as to why she just left with no notice.

"Lucy!" I shouted. I sniffed around. Dirt, Flower, Herbs, Mushrooms-Wait mushrooms? That reminded me of that time I ate a mushroom and then one started to grow out of my head! Ice queens and Happy had one too! Lucy really freaked out when that happened. I remembered everything about her. Her smile, Her laugh and her scent. It was like I could smell it right now? I breathed in the familiar scent of Strawberry and Vanilla. It had been so long since I'd smelled that- 1,2,3 "LUCY!" I realised that it was Lucy's scent and not my imagination. I followed it until it led me to a person. Lucy? No it wasn't. What is he even doing here?

"Natsu" He said with a monotone voice. He seemed hesitant but that wasn't my concern at the moment. I could smell Lucy around here. Maybe he knew where she was?

"Jellal What are you doing here?" I asked my voice laced with suspicion He chuckled hesitantly before answering my question.

"I'm just passing through so don't worry I will be gone soon" he said. I stood there in silence for a while until I asked.

"Have you seen a blonde girl with keys come by here?" He shook his head meaning he didn't. My heart sank.

"You mean the celestial mage of your guild don't you?" He asked. I nodded leaving out the part where she left the guild I would never say that she left Fairy Tail. "If I see her I will let you know...say hi to Erza for me." He said.

"Will do and thanks" I thanked him again before returning to searching the whole of the forest. I found nothing. I eventually had to get home. So I walked out of the forest and through the streets of the peaceful and busy Magnolia.
