"Jorya!" Isandro called out for his wife as soon as they got close to the hiding spot; the woman, a respectable farmer, stood up from the hole that was the entrance for the safe place to run straight into her husband's arms.

"Thanks Ankhseram you have nothing but scrathes!" Jorya cried after she was sure no one got badly hurt. Berenice crossed her arms while biting her lips. "Is everyone safe and sound in there, Jorya?"

Isandro released his wife just little enough so that he could look at her face to detect if Jorya would next tell the truth or not. Jorya made note of this, and her eyes flickered with lost faith mixed with a sort of sorry look. She then moved her big brown eyes towards Tetsuya, who in response slupmed his shoulders with a look of disbelief.

Just as Tetsuya opened his mouth to ask for a good explaination, Aya, looking disheveled and out of breath, went running to his side; Tetsuya was almost sweating with terror, looking at his wife with more worry than he could handle to show. Aya tried to fix her untidy and long black hair, while taking deep breaths; "Your son" She sounded exasperated "Is so going… To make me lose my mind"

Tetsuy almost laughed feeling relieved, quickly followed by the other's bittersweet comments and jokes. "Which one?" Aya, if possible, looked even more tired. "You even bother to ask?" Mr. And Mrs. Dragneel started running to their home, Tetsuya took Aya's hand when her body started to tremble for lack of rest.

They untied their fingers as they entered the small house. "Natsu!" Tetsuya started calling for his son while searching around, and Aya looked in all the small places that the two children often used as a 'secret base'.

They kept on searching, sharing a look in a while and then. "When did you last see him, dear?"
"He was in his room while I accompained Zeref to Mildian". Husband and wife just sighed again simultaneously.
