It was like they were never there.
Gray sat in the student council room, staring at his desk. One week before, everything about Lucy was revealed to him. Not one hour later he was kicked out of the house. Laxus told him to forget them. He seemed like the only one that couldn't. Lucy was officiously kicked out of student council, and no one actually goes to class, so they wouldn't notice her absence.
He did.
He was starting to miss her.
So bad.
"Gray?" Jellal asked. Gray lazily looked up. "Is something wrong? You've been kind of spacey lately."
Gray let out a sigh. "I just need to find someone." And he was out the door before Jellal could count to two.
Gray ran down to the school library in record time. He used his student council privileges to get on a computer. He quickly logged on and got on the Internet. He found Google and typed 'DPA.' He was taken to the DPA homepage. He looked at the links across the top, clicking each one.
He knew what he needed to about the foundation of the company, so he just skimmed through that section. He found a list of the leaders of each division. It was pretty complex; almost like government. Two divisions would work together to find dangerous people. The next seven divisions seaked out those people, each division working at each continent. That just made up the first unit. There were two main units to the DPA, not including Bosu's. And the second was all about Lucy. The website didn't say that directly, but he knew. They obviously couldn't directly say that Lucy was a cursed child that could see people's deaths. Three divisions would work to compile a list for Lucy to search for. Then the list would go to Lucy and Laxus, who worked in Misa's division. When the list was completed, the other teams under Misa would work on finding those people and saving them. It probably just looked good to have Lucy and Laxus under a major division, rather than by themselves.
Gray was about to get off the website, thinking he was unsuccessful, when he saw a small icon in the top right corner of the screen. It was a journal. Mildly curious, he clicked on it. Big letters were stretched across the screen: HELP MAKE THIS WORLD A BETTER PLACE, ONE LIFE AT A TIME! Just below that, he saw saw something that made his eyes widen. There was a place to join the DPA.
Gray clicked the button as fast as his fingers would move. A series of questions appeared. It seemed pretty basic. He had to type in his standard information: name, birthdate, height, hair color, eye color, criminal record, and the list goes on. The last question surprised him. He needed to type why he wanted to join. With a smirk, he started typing.

"It's like nothing changed," Misa laughed. She was looking about the window, watching Laxus, Lucy, Michelle, and Dan all playing basketball outside. The boys thought they would be cleaver and split the teams by gender, but that was a mistake like always. She smiled and let the blinds fall back into place. After clearing her throat, she turned back to Bosu.
"I think I want to send them to Hargeon," Bosu said, tapping his pencil against the desk with one hand, his other resting on his chin. He was staring at his monitor. "There is a lovely apartment building here in town, only a short distance from a school."
"That sounds nice," Misa said through grit teeth. Bosu was not informed of Lucy's little struggle with friends. She really didn't want that to happen again.
A dinging noise made both of them jump.
"What was that?" Misa asked.
"Someone wants to join the company," Bosu said. It was the tablet beside him that made the noise. He has it set to alarm in with any messages or changes. No one has joined in years, so he was a bit surprised. He opened up the website and looked at the submission form, nodding his head in approval so often. When he read the last question, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Something funny?" Misa asked, raising a brow.
Bosu cleared his throat and pressed the button that allowed him to speak over the intercom. "I need ten background checks on the website submission. Get that to me I within the hour," he said in a commanding voice.
"Sir, you already approved the person?" Misa asked. "I thought there was a whole process. The ten background checks shouldn't happen until the last step."
"There is just something about this one I like," Bosu said, resting his hand against his cheek. "I think I will put him in your division."
"What makes you like him?" Misa asked. She also wanted to know what made him laugh, but that wasn't as important.
"Do you know why he wants to join?" Bosu asked, leaning back in his chair. She shook her head. "He didn't say an actual reason, but a question. 'Ever done something crazy?'"
And crazy it was.
This chapter was pretty short.
I have written Chapter 13, but I can't seem to find the inspiration to write 14. I am really getting into Perfect for You. I am quite a few chapters ahead. I always seem to do that. I'll get into one story, get it ahead, and then do that with others. But this time I am WAY into the other one. I will try my hardest to write 14 soon! I REFUSE TO DISRUPT MY REGULAR UPDATES!
Please Review!
