Kisune awoke to the sound of foot steps outside her door. She sat up in her bed, letting the covers slide off her torso and into her lap. She yawned as she heard knocking at the door.
"Come in!" She called as she finished yawning and began to rub her eyes. She turned as the door slowly swung open.
"Hey Kisune, I wasn't sure if you were up yet. But I was just talking with Mira down stairs an-" The speaker suddenly cut himself off. She looked over at him, her eyes still slightly groggy from sleep. Once the figure came into vision clearly she could see it was Breeg standing in her door way.
She raised her arms over her head as she stretched. "Good morning, Kazu." She said, finishing stretching. She turned back to him and looked up at his face. She looked confused as she noticed his face was a bright crimson. "What's up? You don't look so well." She said, as she saw something out of the corner of her vision. When she turned to look, she saw the chair in the corner... with her clothes draped over the back. Her eyes grew wide, and she felt her own face grow warm. She quickly looked down at her self, and noticed she was less than dressed appropriately, wearing only her undergarments. She quickly covered her chest with her arms, remembering she had yet to acquire a set of night clothing since she had arrived.
"Don't just stand there staring!" She screamed at him, not looking up. "Get out!"
Breeg suddenly regained his senses, and retreated outside, slamming the door. He just stood there for a moment staring at her door.
"Ummm..." He said through the door. "I-I'll come back later." He said, but then thought better. "Actually, I'll meet you downstairs after you get dressed. I think we'll go find you some clothes today." He said as he walked away.
"Geez, now she probably thinks I really am some kind of womanizer." He thought to himself as he began to descend the stairs.
But Kisune just sat there on her bed, too embarrassed to do or think anything, other than about what just happened. But she finally stood up and walked over to her clothes, getting dressed as quickly as possible. "Okay, I'm locking my door every night from now on!" She said through gritted teeth. Finally she opened her door and walked out, pretending as though nothing happened.
She walked downstairs and looked around for Kazu. She saw him swirling a drink in his hand at the bar.
"Really? Drinking as soon as you get up?" She said, approaching him. "There has to be a healthier way to start the morning." She scolded him.
Breeg jumped when he heard her voice, sloshing the contents of his drink onto the stone bar. He turned to face her, his face still slightly red. "Kisune!" He exclaimed, but quickly calmed down a bit. "Umm... listen, about while ago-"
She cut him off by raising her hand. "Never mind about that." She said, dismissing what he was about to say. "Now what were you saying about Mira?" She asked.
"Oh, Breeg was just telling me about how you wanted to join Fairy Tail!" Mira said as she walked up from across the bar.
"Yeah, I was telling her how you were a ring magician, and Mira told me that there are two ring magicians in the guild, and we both met them yesterday." He said, turning back to Mira. "Although I don't see how they could have been a part of the Guild all the time I was here when I was younger and had never met them before, like you said, Mira." He stated.
"Oh, they were on leave for awhile." She said. "They took a break from the guild a few months before you arrived, and returned about when you left." She said. "Actually, it was just a few days later."
"Wait, is that when all the hullabaloo was happening about Ryoko the day I left?" He asked.
Mira nodded. "Yep, that was the day! I remember seeing little Fairy walk in with the rest of the team, and she looked almost exactly like you did when you first walked in five years before." She said as she leaned on her elbows, caught up in the memory.
"Wait, who are we talking about now?" Kisune asked, pulling Mira from her thoughts. "Oh! Sorry, we're talking about Loke and Fairy. Loke's the one that looks a lot like Breeg, and Fairy is his daughter."
"You mean Not-Kazu? Him and his daughter use Ring Magic?" She asked.
But Mira just looked at her strangely. "... 'Not-Kazu?" She inquired, puzzled.
Breeg sighed. "Kazu is just a nickname that she gave me when we first met."
"Awwwwweee!" Mira exclaimed. "I always love it when couples give each other cute nicknames!"
Breeg and Kisune's heads both shot up. "Couple?!" They both exclaimed at once.
"Uh-huh!" Mira said, smiling. "What's your nickname for her, Breeg?"
"We're not a couple!" Kisune stated, ignoring what Mira had just said.
"Yeah, you've got it wrong, Mira. We're not together, I just saved her while she was on the road!" Breeg tried to explain.
"Yeah, what he said!" Kisune agreed. "There's no way I would date a drunk like him!" She finished.
"Drunk?" Mira asked.
"I told you, I wasn't drunk!" He said, turning to yell at Kisune.
"Uh huh, that's just what a drunk would say!" She said, yelling back.
"I was tired! I had had a long night!" Breeg continued.
"Yeah, I'll bet you did. And speaking of that, I told you to keep your distance." She said as she backed up a little.
"And I told you, not that kind of night either! I had been running all night to *hic*-" He was interrupted by a hiccup. "See what you did? Now I've got hiccups!" He said, hiccuping again.
"Yeah, that's from you drinking." She said, crossing her arms. "So don't even try and pin it on me!"
Breeg opened his mouth, but instead of a retort, he hiccuped. He just sat there for a second, but then closed his mouth as he turned to a giggling Mira. She kept giggling for a bit, but finally straightened back up. "Anyway, getting back to the original subject of the conversation... Kisune, you want to join Fairy Tail, right?
Kisune immediately got excited. "Yeah, of course I do!" She exclaimed excitedly.
"Alright, then." Mira said as she got up from where she leaned. "Breeg, I assign you as her trainer." She concluded.
Breeg's drink sprayed out onto the bar as he spit out the dark contents. "What?!" He asked in exclamation. "Mira, I'm not even a member of the Guild! I can't train her!"
"Oh hush." Mira chastised him. "You just don't have a mark. As far as everyone is concerned, you are just as much a member of this Guild as everyone else." She said, smiling at him.
Breeg returned the smile. "I'm glad that hasn't changed over the years." He said to her gladly.
"Of course it hasn't!" Mira said enthusiastically. "Family leaves sometimes, but that doesn't mean they're not family anymore. Even if they don't write as often as you'd like." She gave Breeg a look as she said that last part. "But anyway, you better get going with Kisune's training." Mira said, giving Breeg a wink.
Breeg sighed as looked down sadly at his spilled drink. "I didn't even get to enjoy my coffee..." He thought in disappointment.
"Yeah, come on, Kazu!" She exclaimed in excitement.
Breeg turned back to her. "Alright then, grab everything you think you'll need if you haven't already, and meet me outside." Breeg told her.
"Yes sir!" She said as she ran upstairs, saying "Omigosh, ohmigosh, ohmigosh!" All the way to her room.
Breeg waited until he heard her room door close, then leaned over to Mira. "You know, I think I'm too nice to properly 'train' her..." He said, lowly.
"Nonsense. I remember the little devil you used to be." She said, winking back at him. "Old habits die hard."
Breeg sighed. "Alright, I'll do my best." He said, gulping down the last of his coffee as he stood up. "Wish me luck." He said as he walked to the door.
"You don't need it, 'Sensei'." Mira said sarcastically to his back.
Breeg let a grin crawl across his face as he laughed mentally. "No... no, I don't..."
